As HIM drew closer, the tremor in the voices of the tracking players beca more evident.
HIM was now almost at the location of the first Wither.
Yun Li imdiately commanded the Wither to use its explosion skill.
With a deafening blast, the Wither hidden inside the matchbox shot up into the sky.
"HIM is to the bottom right of Wither One!"
The tracking players, seeing the Wither spring into action, quickly reported HIM's position.
Yun Li raised his voice and commanded, "Wither! Target locked!"
Controlling the Wither wasn't as simple as using a system interface. There was no panel or prompts to assist Yun Li; the Wither only responded to voice commands.
Yun Li had spent a long ti preparing for this battle, testing distances and the volu necessary to ensure the Wither could hear his orders.
With precise calculations for distance and volu, he knew his voice would reach the Wither without being overheard by anyone else.
Yun Li's command was given, and the trackers imdiately reported back.
"The Wither has turned to face HIM! It looks like it's locked on!"
Hearing this news, Yun Li finally felt a bit of relief. He then instructed the elite mbers around him.
"Release all Withers! Lock onto HIM!"
As soon as Yun Li's words fell, a series of loud bangs echoed from above.
Nine more Withers appeared in the sky, all eyes fixed on HIM.
"All ten Withers locked on!!!"
The tracking players swiftly conveyed the update.
Yun Li didn't hesitate upon hearing this. He issued the next command.
"All units, aim at HIM and attack!!"
At Yun Li's order, the ten Withers ca to life. They all focused on HIM below, launching their Wither skulls.
HIM, seeing the assault, showed no sign of panic. He teleported rapidly to evade the incoming barrage of skulls.
With deft movents, HIM weaved through the relentless rain of Wither skulls, counterattacking with fireball-like abilities, calm and unyielding.
The tracking players' nerves were stretched taut.
"Boss, he's got ranged skills! He's shooting fireballs!"
"Wither One is under attack!"
"…"
Yun Li, hearing these reports, was montarily taken aback.
He hadn't anticipated HIM wielding ranged abilities. But Yun Li quickly gathered himself. After slaughtering the Triumph Guild's players, it wasn't surprising for HIM's strength to have evolved. More skills were to be expected.
However, Yun Li wasn't overly concerned. Withers could regenerate!
Earlier, Yun Li had instructed his players to gather and pen livestock. This served two purposes: to mislead HIM into thinking this was a player settlent and to provide healing for the Withers.
"Report the Wither's health in real-ti. If any drop to half health, notify imdiately!"
"To everyone else, attack when he's distracted by his fireballs!"
Yun Li's orders quickly showed results.
"Boss!! Good news!! He took damage!"
The report from the trackers lifted everyone's spirits.
As long as HIM could be hard, victory was possible.
Their greatest fear had been that HIM would be immune to Wither damage—just as he had been to arrows during the Kaixuan Guild battle.
Seeing the attacks succeed, Yun Li's confidence soared.
"Forget finesse! Blast him to pieces!!"
At Yun Li's command, the ten Withers unleashed their bombardnt.
HIM managed to teleport away from one wave of attacks, but the next wave struck his face directly.
The barrage of Wither skulls was so dense that HIM had no ti to evade.
In every attack cycle, HIM was hit by at least one or two Wither skulls.
The relentless onslaught from the Withers pinned HIM down, leaving him breathless.
His health was dropping rapidly.
The tracking players continued to relay battlefield updates without pause.
Though the battle seed to favor Yun Li's side, he remained wary.
"Why is he still fighting at half health? Shouldn't he be fleeing?!"
His suspicion voiced aloud, Yun Li awaited updates from the trackers.
"Boss! Bad news! It looks like HIM is trying to escape!"
Relieved to see his doubt resolved, Yun Li barked out another command.
"Don't let him escape!! Full assault!!"
As victory drew near, Yun Li's heady rush to seize it clouded his judgnt. He stopped questioning.
The ten Withers chased HIM relentlessly, reducing everything in their path to rubble.
HIM's health plumted.
As the Withers pursued HIM further, Yun Li's group beca uneasy. The Withers were moving beyond their control range.
Yun Li quickly demanded updates from the trackers.
"What's going on outside?!"
Though they were on the surface, the increasing distance and chaos made it hard for the trackers to see clearly.
All they saw was the Withers stopping their pursuit and hovering in place.
One brave officer crept closer.
He beheld a massive crater in the plains, more than thirty ters wide, its depths scorched and blasted.
At its center lay a body.
Stunned, the officer gaped at the sight.
"He's… dead…?!"
"HIM is dead!!!!!!"
It took a mont for Yun Li's group to process the news.
Though this was the result they had sought, the reality was almost too much to believe.
"Is he really dead?!! Are you sure?!!"
"Could he be faking it?!"
"You didn't mistake soone else for HIM, did you?!!"
The nervous officer moved closer to confirm.
HIM's body was already disintegrating.
Heart pounding, the officer confird, "It's true!!"
"Boss!! His body is disintegrating!! He's really dead!!!!!!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Li began digging his way up to the surface, issuing instructions as he went.
"Quick! Record this mont!!"
Yun Li knew this victory was monuntal. Although the battle hadn't been broadcast, the result needed to be shared.
This was HIM, the Demon King—an unstoppable force feared by all players.
Now, he had fallen to the Yunteng Guild.
This battle alone would make the guild famous.
The officer started recording.
When Yun Li and his mbers gathered around the crater, HIM's body had completely vanished.
In its place lay an array of loot.
Five diamonds, a Nether Star, a treasure map, and several enchanted books.
Still grappling with disbelief, Yun Li's doubts evaporated at the sight.
"So much loot?!"
Players crowded around, eyes shining with excitent.
"Five diamonds from one drop! He really was the Demon King!"
"Diamonds are the least of it! Look at that star-like object—must be priceless!"
"And those enchanted books! I've only ever seen posts about the Eternal Radiance Guild having a single one!"
"The treasure map! It's the Demon King's treasure!"
"Indeed… we're gonna be rich!!!"
None of the items were things Yunteng Guild mbers had seen firsthand.
This day would go down in history.
