MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter

The ogres of the sub-dimension still do not know that their leaders have fallen into internal conflicts and disputes.

"I say we should simply have a decisive battle with the enemy. I don't believe that a new recruit can truly summon a demigod."

"Exactly, even if there's a demigod, our god is the strongest. Their leaders are definitely not as powerful as ours."

"That's easy to say, but how can we have a decisive battle now? We still have to guard against Gordok, and if Gordok attacks from the other side, what can we do? We'd be under attack from both fronts."

"So we must have a decisive battle, only by quickly breaking the new recruit's defense line can we prevail over him. I don't believe he can summon many ace armies; if he could, why hasn't he done so already?"

"You're taking a gamble."

The leaders were expressing varied opinions, and even the Raven God and the Great Magician were equally conflicted.

"Enough, the enemy hasn't even attacked, yet you're already in disarray. It's just Gordok Ogres. As long as we defend the other side, the enemy is unlikely to harm us. We have the best chance to win."

Although the Great Magician knew deep down that the initiative in war had shifted, he still needed to inspire confidence in his troops. If he showed a lack of confidence, his subordinates would likely crumble.

Just then, an ogre cavalryman staggered over and shouted loudly, "Great Magician, it's bad news."

"Speak clearly, what's the bad news?" the Great Magician asked with a grim face.

The ogre scout said bitterly, "Gordok is moving. A large force is gathering, and with a strong momentum approaching the city walls, their king's banner has already reached the walls."

Although they knew that once Gordok was subdued, they would face Gordok's army, they hadn't expected the situation to develop so quickly. They hadn't yet reached consensus, but the enemy deployed troops at such speed.

The Great Magician gritted his teeth and coldly said, "Order the Eighth Legion and the Ninth Legion to strengthen their defenses according to my command. I have only one request: do not aim to annihilate the enemy nor proactively provoke them. But if the enemy attacks, you must completely block them."

The two commanders of the Eighth and Ninth Legions looked distressed: "Great Magician, the enemy has at least four world-class leaders. How can we withstand them? Please send strong individuals to assist us for better security."

"I will send two high-level magicians to assist you, with enough strength to counter the enemy. I have met your request, but if your side is breached, don't blame the merciless military laws," the Great Magician said sternly.

The two legion commanders and two high-level magicians quickly departed, saying, "Rest assured, Great Magician, we'll prevail or die trying."

The atmosphere on this side of the city walls became stifling. With several powerful individuals now missing, there was even less determination to go out for a decisive battle.

The players below the city naturally also saw the system prompt and roughly understood the situation. Before they could dig deeper, they already knew that Prairie Fire's Mechanical Avatar, along with the Blood Rose mercenary group—a total of ten people—had managed to take over the Gordok race.

The main force had gained a formidable ally, that alone brings three to four million ace armies to the table. Of course, this number is intentionally exaggerated to boost the main force players' confidence.

In fact, knowing an additional few million troops were besieging from another direction and being aided by four world-class leaders had completely affirmed the players' confidence.

However, a new issue arose: how to ensure the second troop didn't steal the spotlight, and how Redemption could maximize earning military merit.

Initially, confidence was lacking, but now they believed they could take this city. Naturally, they began to focus, causing many players who intended to reserve strength to go all out for fear of lagging and missing out.

So, although the battle had been raging for a day, many players were reluctant to deploy stronger forces, but after this message spread, the advisory department led by Sister Li saw mission requests and details for troop deployments, revealing many formidable armies, likely guild or personal hidden assets.

The battlefield on both sides quickly escalated as players deployed powerful forces, further increasing the death rate of ogres. The pressure could be distinctly felt by the sub-dimension ogres.

"Prairie Fire God, you're so unscrupulous. Such an important battle and you didn't invite us to provide commentary. It was only after the official announcement that I realized there was no official streaming or commentary for your epic battle. I heard you even rejected the official offer," said Xiao Ze, astride a gryphon, announcing loudly before even landing in front of Li Yao.

Li Yao smiled and said, "Though I'm busy, you can't fool me. I heard you were invited by a super guild to provide commentary, right? The pay seems decent. Their target is a mid-sized city, and I assume the battle isn't over yet."

Xiao Ze's smile froze momentarily and replied, "You, a busy person, actually know about my affairs. Well, we're actually official commentators. You rejected the official streaming request, thus the officials sent me, knowing that I'm somewhat familiar with you. They couldn't have known, in front of you I stand no chance."

"You're mistaken. Your face is far bigger than the official's. I may dismiss the official's request, but you, Xiao Ze, I have to give face to. Isn't it about official streaming? I approve. Just as the real action is about to start," Li Yao paused before continuing: "However, one thing—you can only stream what you see. Don't ask me about military plans. The officials are too overbearing, wanting a full disclosure of my military plans. If I agree, the ogres would know immediately."

Xiao Ze awkwardly smiled, knowing this all too well. When the super guild asked her to stream, they also wanted her to know the complete plan in advance to arrange detailed streaming schedules and optimize for thrilling episodes. Despite slight dissatisfaction from the super guild, they recognized only Prairie Fire had this kind of influence. It wasn't them contacting the officials; rather, the officials sought his streaming. Li Yao wasn't concerned about the matter of streaming himself, while the officials needed to leverage his popularity to attract more people to Ancient God.

This situation isn't similar to the super guild's desire for official streaming and begging the officials.

Indeed, in the entire Ancient God realm, only Li Yao holds such sway.

She wisely ignored that topic: "The real action begins, is it the other side's offensive? I know your extraordinary skills managed to control Gordok Ogres."

Li Yao shook his head, "Not that. It's truly about the siege starting, the real decisive battle is about to begin."...
