Li Yao furrowed his brows slightly. He had visited this place in his previous life, but at that time this beach or bay didn’t have this many monsters.
The NPCs of the Ancient God aren’t rigid templates, but projections of simulated development.
This goes for the intelligence of NPCs or monsters, or anything else, even the development of the plot.
The Ancient God System only sets the basics and lays the groundwork for the plot; the ultimate outcome is not manipulated by the Ancient God. The Ancient God System only adjusts and regulates some excessively abnormal items, making this virtual world more reasonable and orderly.
So, one can’t use their previous gaming deduction methods to judge the Ancient God.
Even if a player kills a monster, that monster gathering in a certain place has its own reasoning and purpose.
The so-called magical reality is not something elusive.
For example, if Li Yao really wanted to research what had happened here, he could stay here.
Collecting information or observing, he would eventually understand the purpose of these Naga.
In his previous life, many players didn’t care about PK or instance raiding. Some were quest crazies, others were achievement nuts, some were collectible junkies, others were research fanatics and so forth. There were diverse ways to play and experience.
Li Yao looked at his destination and found that there were too many monsters. Trying to sneak in would be basically suicidal.
Many thieves believed that being able to sneak allowed them to freely come and go as they wished, able to dig for treasure where ever they liked, but this was not the case.
Thieves were only comfortable in regular wildernesses. In places like this, there would definitely be a large amount of treasures, but they couldn’t be obtained just by sneaking around.
The aim of the Ancient God was very clear: some areas were suitable for individual level-ups, others for team level-ups, and still others for guild level-ups.
Places like this, densely populated with monsters, were suitable for guild raiding activities.
Only guilds had the power to clear out this place, wipe out the Naga here, and reap a wave of treasures or resources.
“It seems I have to fight my way in. If I get surrounded, it is all over,” Li Yao frowned.
There were too many monsters here and they were of very high quality. Initially dealing with a few hundred Silver Elites required the presence of a thousand Starfire guild members. He had no idea how many Elites, Silver Elites there were here.
Static Flywheel!
Two spinning flywheels suddenly flew out, causing massive damage figures to appear.
Naga Guard
Rank: Level 15 1-star Elite
Life: 15,000
Armor: 456
Resistance: Elementary Ice Resistance
Skills: Cleaving Strike, Hydro Kill, Deadly Poison Assassination, Life Share
Naga Patrol
Rank: Level 15 1-star Elite
Life: 2,000
Armor: 385
Resistance: Elementary Ice Resistance

Li Yao was as careful as possible, but the flywheel still attracted dozens of Elites.
Leap Stomp!
Taking advantage of Death God 4000 drawing the aggro, Li Yao went all out with his firepower.
Clack, clack, clack…
Three Arrow Towers were placed beside him.
Rapid Shooting!
Death Black Arrow! Death Black Arrow! Death Black Arrow! Death Black Arrow…
Li Yao’s hands turned into a path of afterimages, crazily launching Death Black Arrows at the Naga.
However, there were too many Elites. After just one round of attacks, the humanoid form skills of Death God 4000 were emptied out.
Then came the second form, as firm as a rock!
Many parts formed around the second-form Death God 4000 that shielded him from the constant onslaught of damage.
Static Pulse!
An arc of electricity constantly dealt decent damage to the surrounding Naga.
-958-984-968-975…
Part Scatter!
The parts around Death God 4000 erupted suddenly. However, the attack of the Naga was too fierce. In less than ten seconds, Death God 4000 had already succumbed to death for the first time before Li Yao could even finish Unleashing Rapid Shooting.
Death Explosion!
Immediately, Death God 4000 exploded into a huge cloud of fire, filling the corner of Li Yao’s vision with damage numbers.
After Li Yao stopped releasing the Death Black Arrow, he released Arrow Rain.
Time Trace!
Li Yao went back to releasing Rapid Shooting and Death God 4000 charged up again, releasing a new round of skills.
Arrow Rain!
Li Yao released another wave of Arrow Rain!
Scattershot! Scattershot! Scattershot!…
Li Yao’s area attack dealt around seven hundred damage to the male Naga and eight hundred to the female Naga. Killing an Elite instantly was basically impossible.
Just as the close to a dozen Naga’s health was depleted and they started to fall.
Thud, thud, thud…
The bodies of the Naga exploded and the Silver Elite Skeletons stood up.
Li Yao hurriedly commanded Death God 4000 to retreat, use a healing pet and then stored it away.
“After all, it’s not a real tank pet, it’s just not sturdy enough,” Li Yao frowned.
He immediately summoned Fire Eagle, which began to release AoE spells.
Feather Fire Scattershot! Fire Breath!
A large blaze covered the Naga below. After unleashing its skills, Fire Eagle flew high into the sky to dodge the bombardment of spell attacks.
In such a short time, more than half of the skeletons summoned by Li Yao had already fallen.
Li Yao was sweating profusely; he gave up releasing his Scattershot and began to focus on killing the lower HP Elites.
If the speed of summoning Silver Elites couldn’t keep up with consumption, he would have to run.
This was because of the Time Ring. Otherwise, his plan would have been unworkable.
Naga were high-intelligence creatures and highly territorial. Li Yao couldn’t kite them outside the bay. However, inside the bay were too many Naga. Kiting here was suicide.
Thud, thud, thud, thud…
As the Naga corpses exploded one after another, the number of skeletons by Li Yao’s side finally started to increase; up to twenty now. Over forty had already fallen.
But with the decreasing number of Naga, things finally started to relax a little on Li Yao’s side.
In the brief moment that just passed, Li Yao could be said to have used all his means.
As a Mechanical Hunter, his trump cards were the Arrow Towers and his two mechanical pets. As a Dark Ranger, the skeletons summoned by his Death Black Arrows. Then came the Time Ring paired with the Hunter’s burst power. All of this gave him a hard-fought opening. If he were to try again, Li Yao might fail.
If it were somebody else, there wouldn’t be such an opening. Only a team of over a hundred or a guild event would have such a possibility.
However, this was just the entrance to the bay.
Li Yao broke out in a sweat. He had played all his cards to their fullest extent, except for the Repair Robot.
“Luckily it was a success. Otherwise, I’d have to ask for help from guildmates.”
Li Yao finally cleaned up the first wave of monsters, and there were nearly a hundred skeletons by his side now.
Although it wasn’t long, Li Yao realized the difficulty here. Even he couldn’t be the slightest bit careless.
“The Abyss, huh. The first exploration here seems to have a chance to capture a good pet. I hope the Mysterious Eye doesn’t disappoint me.”
Li Yao set up a bonfire. He needed to prepare some food to replenish the buff…
