Chapter 268: Corrupted Creatures

Translator: 549690339

Li Yao’s face changed, ready to draw his weapon, only to find that the items in his backpack had all turned gray and his weapons were all placed inside it.

“Damn this Dark Troll, thinking he is superior, he dares to break away and go independent, not obeying the orders of Zandalari, damn it.”

Whoosh whoosh whoosh…

A group of trolls abruptly threw their short spears. Li Yao knew he had only one option without access to his weapons – to flee.

As they threw their long spears, Li Yao launched a Shadow Roll and performed a backward leap, jumping into the forest.

Through the conversation of the trolls, Li Yao realized this could be an event that happened over ten thousand years ago.

The elves were once a tribal branch of the trolls. However, due to their nocturnal habits and their proximity to the source of the world’s energy, the lake.

They were changed by the energy of the earth, their skin and eyes transformed, they started to understand the use of magic, even abandoned the brutal traditional ways of the trolls and become an independent race.

At the time all the trolls formed a powerful empire and even defeated the former world hegemon, the Worm Tribe.

How could they tolerate betrayal at their height of glory? They started to incessantly hunt down the independent elves. This was the cause of the third war.

“Kid, you are unarmed, how you’re going to fight us. Behave and surrender.”

A few trolls were rushing towards Li Yao with sinister smiles.

“Your aim is too bad, go back and train for a few more decades. With your garbage skills, I wonder if the priest who granted you your adulthood ritual was biased.”

Li Yao flashed aside and started to use the big trees as barriers while running.

“Once I catch you, I’ll skin you alive and feed you to my raptors.” A few trolls huffed in frustration, the remarks about their adult ritual were a huge insult.

Li Yao was running at lightning speed as short spears kept flying past him barely missing his body.

Long jump + Magic Spider Silk, Li Yao instantly jumped on a tree trunk and then continued to leap using the Magic Spider Silk to pull himself forward.

Li Yao was moving at the maximum speed but the distance was only increasing between him and the trolls.

“Kid, stop struggling, you are poisoned. The faster you run, the faster the toxin will take effect. Hahaha.”

This group of trolls were clearly jungle veterans, they picked up speed as if the complicated terrain on the ground didn’t exist.

Li Yao’s expression changed, and he did realize a poisoning effect.

Lights flickered in Li Yao’s eyes, he once again used Magic Spider Silk to pull himself to another big tree, and then evaded the trolls’ line of sight.

Time Trace!

Li Yao’s body disappeared in an instant and then reappeared on the tree where he was twelve seconds ago.

The trolls’ speed was very fast, twelve seconds would allow them to run a few hundred yards.

Li Yao quickly ran towards another direction on the trees, finally the distance was too far to maintain a combat state, Li Yao immediately activated the Dark Ranger’s passive skill.

Then under the coverage of his passive skill, Li Yao hid his breath, and he sat motionless on the branches of a tall tree.

“Damn it, how did this kid disappear.” The leading troll suddenly stopped.

A troll scuttled up the tree where Li Yao disappeared, saying, “His scent disappears here.”

“Trace back.” The leading troll’s face was grim. They were all expert trackers and soon noticed something wasn’t right.

The group of trolls ran again, then found Li Yao’s scent marks left on the way, and starting chasing immediately.

“Chief, the scent is completely gone now.” said the troll in frustration.

“Sneaky guy, we should trace back.”

However, they didn’t know that at this moment, Li Yao was watching them from the branches about a hundred yards away.

“The first challenge is this difficult, I hope the players in the future dungeon adventure won’t blame me.”

Li Yao muttered to himself.

Time passed little by little. The trolls returned once during this time, but still didn’t find Li Yao’s scent. Finally, they left helplessly.

Five minutes passed, and the view in front of Li Yao’s eyes changed again.

“System: Congratulations to Prairie Fire for completing the trial, rewarded with 5% experience.”

Then the Dice of Destiny appeared in front of Li Yao again, he didn’t hesitate and rolled the dice again.

Li Yao jumped to the fourteenth stone column, and he was enveloped by a beam of light.

“System: Destiny has led you to this stone pillar, you have received the blessing of the Moon God, endurance increased by 2%, strength increased by 2%.”

Li Yao heaved a sigh of relief. It was lucky to meet this stone pillar as it wasn’t always the same.

Perhaps his luck was good, Li Yao rolled 5 again.

After that, Li Yao’s luck was still good, the numbers he rolled were quite large, very quickly he was soon nearing the end.

Of course, this was also related to his strength. Most of the trials weren’t a challenge for him.

Such as one trial was to compete with an elite Moon Guardian, challenge a Silver Hero, or defeat a very fast Boss.

This might be difficult for other players, but it was very simple for Li Yao.

Furthermore, there were no Columns of Misfortune for punishment. After all, this was a trial by the Moon God who naturally wouldn’t weaken the strength of her believers. Most of the stone columns were awarded with experience.

When Li Yao jumped onto the platform on the opposite side, his experience increased by as much as 35%. He sighed and thought that pioneering rewards were indeed the greatest, whether it was in terms of items or experience.

Going through the corridor, Li Yao found an extremely large cave. Water surrounded the cave on all four sides. Due to the limitation of his field of vision, Li Yao launched a Sonar Arrow.

There were indeed quite a few things below. One-star Elite Murlocs, turtles, all wandering in the water.

And on the island, Li Yao saw a giant turtle. The turtle was really too big, just from witnessing the size of the visible hind limbs of the turtle, which were similar to an elephant’s hooves, one could imagine the strength of this giant turtle.

Surrounding the turtle were Satyrs, each of them standing on a small Rune Magic Circle emitting an eerie blood-red light.

They raised their hands, a red magic ray linked to the turtle’s body, Li Yao occasionally could hear the agonizing struggle and roar of the turtle’s soul.

Li Yao frowned. Satyrs were also a branch of elves.

Instead, the Satyrs were the corrupted branch. They were the real traitors of the Elf Clan as well as the cause of the cataclysm. They accepted the cosmic void’s fel energy, their bodies twisted into a monster with tentacles growing out of their heads, their bodies distorted and strengthened, turning into creatures with claws and hooves. This type of new demon was called Satyr.

Although they were distorted and ugly, they undoubtedly became much stronger after being enhanced by the fel energy.

“The process has changed, but it seems that the first boss hasn’t.” Li Yao touched his chin, this old turtle was a not easy to mess with…
