There were still some hecklers in the livestream room, but everyone was quickly drawn to the wager. The trolling voices that had previously filled the chat was silent once more.

To them, it was a fact that Prairie Fire and Sparks had shared strategies for defeating three bosses. No one in their right mind would name a boss kill in honor of another guild otherwise.

Everyone agreed that watching others’ failed attempts and learning from them to formulate a strategy to take down a field boss that even guilds can’t handle was a monumental achievement. They were more than confident to set such bets, especially with Xiayao’s endorsement, no one believed Prairie Fire would back out.

Being able to kill a boss and obtain epic equipment drops from field bosses were what the majority of the player base dreamed of.

The equipment from field bosses were top-notch, not the common drops from dungeons. Since players couldn’t take down the field bosses, the only way to get Blue Equipment was through treasure boxes.

Finding a good treasure box was akin to buying a lottery ticket, considering the sheer number of players.

In times like these, a trend had started where rogues trained in stealth would risk going to high-level zones to hunt for treasure boxes. Many lucky rogues got their start this way.

The players’ craving for epic equipment was all too apparent.

To them, Prairie Fire was an exceptional player. Even guilds were following his methods for pioneering, even though they suffered heavy losses, they never gave up.

However, the gap between him and the boss was vast. Even top players barely managed to kill a boss, and Prairie Fire was going up against a boss that was seven levels higher than him.

It would take over 200 successful special moves to drain that boss’s health, no mistakes were allowed, or he would face defeat. ‘Chillingly difficult’ was an understatement.

As soon as the wager opened, many people began placing bets, and with time, different guilds who received the news also sent their members to place bets.

Ten gold coins or ten thousand credit points were nothing to them. If they could get a strategy to kill a boss, they would turn an insane profit, even though the boss respawned slowly, with multiple runs they would still gain a lot.

At Li Yao’s home, his father said angrily, “That kid is too impulsive. He’s poked such a big hole in the sky. Why not just assist in a level five dungeon, isn’t that enough? Now he’s in this predicament, I’d like to see what he does when he can’t beat the boss.”

Li Jia stuck out her tongue, pretending as if she didn’t hear a thing.

But Li Yao’s mother wasn’t happy at all. She said, “What are you capable of, except being ‘steady’? If you were so steady, you should be the CEO of the company by now. You dare criticize our son when you can’t even beat a level four elite. If you’re so capable, why don’t you go and show us?”

“You, you’re totally unreasonable,” Li Yao’s father said angrily, turning his head away.

“Hmph.” Li Yao’s mother snorted coldly, then passed a shelled tangerine to Li Jia with a smile.

Li Jia received the tangerine with a giggle, and once again focused on the TV. She was also worried about Li Yao.

“Nowadays there are so many tycoons, there’s already over two thousand gold bets, there must’ve been over two hundred tycoons betting.” Shadow Dance was almost cross-eyed with disbelief. That was equivalent to over two hundred thousand credit points. If he had that much money, he wouldn’t have to live in a slum.

You have to know, this was just a whimsical bet made by Li Yao. Even if he lost, it would cost nothing more than some brain cells. But if he won, he would get money that could change his life.

Even though the winning money wasn’t his, he could feel his blood boiling, as if he had just opened a new door.

“One day, I will be just like the boss, Prairie Fire.”

Shadow Dance’s eyes sparked as the amount of gold increased, starting to get excited.

“You really made a fortune this time, but it wasn’t because of me.” Feng Yi laughed. She had a feeling that Li Yao’s real life means were not that good.

“Brother, you’re rich now. You should treat us when we watch the carnival,” said Tianzhen innocently.

“You’re the one treating, I wouldn’t have made this money without everyone’s help. This is money that we, a team, earned together. We’ll split it four ways. Tianzhen, you’ll be a rich girl too.” Li Yao was not short of ways to make money, a few days ago he made quite a reputation for himself. He could easily make a fortune by selling strategies for field bosses to any guild. Naturally, this small amount of money was nothing to him. If it weren’t for those annoying trolls, he wouldn’t have bothered to bet.

“You’re right. After the game, let’s split the gold earned from your amazing skills as well.” Feng Yi suggested.

“Oh, I…l…l’m so embarrassed.” Tianzhen said in a shy manner.

Li Yao laughed heartily. “Alright, whatever you decide.”

Li Yao needed to win over Tianzhen and Shadow Dance, especially Shadow Dance, this was a golden opportunity to do so. It’s only a small investment, but the return was an upcoming rogue god.

He would need powerful teammates to compete in China and around the world in the future. When the rogue god was just starting, he was worth more than eighty million credit points after the Olympic Games.

A team even offered him one hundred million credit points, but were rejected. A little favor now, which doesn’t hurt his pride, was worth way more.

The audience and viewers were speechless. Bro, you haven’t beaten the boss yet, and you’re already talking about splitting the money.

“It’s been ten minutes now, and more than three hundred viewers have joined the wager.” Tianzhen mentioned excitedly.

Li Yao nodded and said, “Xiayao, you will summon the Stone Demon in a moment to test the waters. Then summon the Undead Guardian. I want to carefully observe its skills. Tianzhen, leave this platform as well. Once you’ve given the guardian its orders, Xiayao, you should also leave the platform.”

“Okay, I get it.” Feng Yi began to summon, and soon a giant Stone Demon and an Undead Arcane Guardian appeared by her side.

Li Yao led Xiayao towards the stairs, passing the Sun King statue in the middle of the platform. He couldn’t help but gaze at its hands.

What he was really searching for was right in front of him. But he didn’t act recklessly. His intent was to obtain it surreptitiously, as a secret known to himself alone.

“This Stone Demon is equivalent to a Main Tank (MT) clad in Green

Equipment. Now, let the Stone Demon taste the power of the boss first,” Xiayao explained to the viewers.

The Stone Demon made its way toward the boss under Xiayao’s commands, thumping along at a slow but steady pace.

When the Stone Demon charged within fifty yards of the boss, the boss’s eyes snapped open, and he swiftly stood up.

“Wretched intruders.”

With those words, his towering figure vanished, only to reappear above and behind the Stone Demon. Before the Stone Demon could turn, two enormous blades gleaming with golden light swiftly slashed down.

Whoosh…

The Stone Demon, with four hundred health points and defense equivalent to a tank clad in Green Equipment, was cut into four parts.

-400

A huge damage number floated up. It’s not that the boss’s damage wasn’t high enough, but the Stone Demon had only four hundred health points left.

All those watching online and the audience inhaled sharply at the sight. It was truly terrifying. If the Stone Demon was obliterated in one move, the Hunter with lower defense would undoubtedly be doomed.

Boom…

The boss’s massive body fell to the ground, stepping on the crushed corpse of the Stone Demon before slowly returning to its original position.

“This should be a surprise attack skill, similar to the rogue’s Shadow Step, but much more powerful,” Li Yao frowned and said, “Send the Undead Guardian forward.

Qin Feng Yi nodded, directing the Undead Guardian to approach the boss again.

The Undead Guardian got within fifty yards, lifted its left arm, and blasted a Magic Bullet. It then struck the boss, who had just stood up.

-600

An even scarier number floated up, startling everyone. His attack was only seventy to eighty percent of his pre-death power, and he was hitting a boss higher than his level. Had that Magic Bullet hit Li Yao, his doom would have been certain.

“More damned intruders, you’re all going to die.”

The boss hastily ran over. With a swift movement of its right-armed blade, dozens of chains from the void appeared in a fan shape. Several chains grabbed the Undead Guardian, yanking it closer with force.

Blade Dance.

The boss’s arm turned into a blur of afterimages, causing clanging sounds to resonate.

-400-500-600-500-300-200-400-600…

Before the audience could react, the boss’s figure suddenly disappeared, only to appear above the back of the Undead Guardian and strike down sharply.

Surprise Attack!

-1200

The boss swung its arm fiercely, wreaking havoc on the back of the Undead

Guardian.

Death Strangle!

-800-800…

The turned-around Undead Guardian wasn’t polite either.

Arcane Stomp!

-800

Peals of thunderous noise echoed, with cracks appearing on the ground of the hall. The boss’s body was shaken, staggering unsteadily.

Taking advantage of the boss’s imbalance, the Undead Guardian’s right arm glowed blue. Its metallic fist hit the boss’s chest forcefully.

Arcane Punch!

-1000

Rumbles…

The boss’s great body hadn’t stabilized before it was knocked down by the powerful punch.

The Undead Guardian’s eyes flickered with blue light. A huge whirlwind shot out from its body, curling around the faraway boss.

Arcane Whirlwind!

-200-300-300-200-200-300-200-200-300-400-300-200…

A stream of damage numbers floated up from the boss’s head, densely clustered.

As the boss was just getting up, the Death Guardian started to jump wildly, swinging its arm like a fan.

The arm crazily slammed onto the boss’s body, like a mad frenzy.

-300-400-500-400-300-500…

“Damn weakling, how can you be my opponent.”

The boss’s eyes turned blood red, and the ground emitted a red glow. A series of rune marks appeared, like molten lava on the ground. Within dozens of yards, heat waves soared into the sky.

Flame Seal!

The Undead Guardian, with about four thousand health points left, saw its health bar decrease at a visible rate. Suddenly, a burst of blue light exploded from its body.

The Undead Guardian shattered into pieces, and a giant number of -2000 damage floated above the boss’s head.

Both the audience and online spectators were stunned. It was simply too crazy, a bombardment between two bosses.

It was many times stronger than the players in the earlier stage. Not to mention now, could they really kill such an incredible boss even at level ten?

Thinking of Xiayao owning one, they were driven mad by jealousy. With this Undead Guardian, it would be easy to defeat low-level bosses. They also suspected that if the Undead Guardian were still alive, it would have certainly done great damage to this boss.

Now, Li Yao had to face this boss. If there were still any hopes among the players before, they were now replaced with despair.

“I’ve figured out its skills. Let me demonstrate one of the core techniques of the Hunter,” said Li Yao, quickly lifting his heavy crossbow and firing an arrow….
