MMORPG: Divine Mech Hunter-Chapter 740 - : Starfire Sets Sail
Chapter 740: Chapter 740: Starfire Sets Sail
The fire continued to rage, and the entire base was sweltering. If it weren’t for the potions, they probably couldn’t have lasted this long.
Hours had passed, and Li Yao had used all his engineering materials. Almost all the engineering materials within the base had been used up too, but the flames finally began to die down slowly.
The demons in the sky seemed to thin out as well, no longer covering the sky like before.
The area in front of the base was covered in black substance, the result of magma solidification, so they couldn’t see any of the demons’ corpses.
“Finally, this is almost over, I was so bored.” Dumpling threw her Gwent cards on the ground; they knew the game too well and it wasn’t fun anymore.
Especially since the women in the group were all very shrewd. Dumpling was smart, but she lost more games than she won, which inevitably made the game less enjoyable.
...
“Child, I was so worried. You seem so relaxed.” Sister Li patted Dumpling’s head.
“What are you worried about? When has Big Brother’s monster hunting plan ever failed? Even if it does, it’s because we’re not strong enough and can’t meet Big Brother’s expectations.” Dumpling spoke naturally, demonstrating her blind admiration and trust in Li Yao.
“And what’s there to worry about? We have a house half full of explosives and the underground oil storage. If there’s an accidental ignition here with a fire spell or a lightning spell, we’re done for, and I guess this base would explode too,” the Unparalleled Sorceress said.
“Oh right, I hadn’t thought of that.” Dumpling suddenly realized.
You guys keep worrying about nothing. We’re all been standing for hours, I’ve been maintaining this position for so long that I can’t move anymore, can’t a beauty come and help me up?” Guardian Angel said, sounding weak.
Seeing Fruit Knight’s gaze, he quickly changed his tone: “Cough cough, Little Match, come and help me. I really can’t move. You guys each have a shield and can morph, so you can move around, I’m stuck in one position, it’s unbearable.”
“Let’s rest for a while. In a bit, we’ll either drive away or kill the remaining demons, repair the airship, and then our occupation here is considered complete.” Li Yao also breathed a sigh of relief.
“The outside will cool down completely soon.” Unparalleled Sorceress tentatively measured the temperature of the ground outside.
Feng Yi nodded, “Indeed, it was very risky, we almost wiped several times, but the rewards are huge too. The points we’ve accumulated today are probably equal to that of a dozen or so days in the past. It is a pity that so many spoils of war and badges are buried and impossible to dig up. Otherwise, our gains could have increased by half.”
“We have to be content. Including the badges, our gains today are equivalent to what we usually get in seven or eight days. I think our military achievements are either first or very close to it,” Tianxiang said, “Besides, our plan is just getting started. Once this base is in normal operation, we’ll be rich.”
Soon everyone had rested and then they went outside. As they made their way towards the mountain top, they cleared up any scattered flying demons.
“This mountain is so high, and the road is not easy to walk on. Why put the airship on the mountain top? Can’t we just build a flight deck on the ground?” Dumpling asked curiously.
“There is usually a teleportation array at the entrance of the base that leads directly to the airship. But the airship is broken now and the base has lost operation, so it’s a bit more bothersome. As long as we repair the airship, things will be convenient as soon as the base is activated,” Li Yao casually shot at the demons in the sky.
Soon, everyone arrived at the top of the mountain. The huge peak had been smoothed into a flat platform.
A seemingly intact airship was silently resting on the platform.
“Big brother, hurry and see if you can fix it. We will get rid of these monsters,” Dumpling fired a Lava Eruption and struck down one of the flying demons.
“Hmm, I’ll go take a look.” Li Yao jumped directly onto the airship.
The angels’ airships are similar to the goblins’ but there are many differences, and the current airship was an early version. Compared to the airships ten years later, it was quite backward.
For Li Yao, as long as he had enough parts, repairing this was no big deal.
“The hull is in good condition, the repair robots can take care of the durability.”
“There are a few less projectors and cannons. Some are damaged, but they can be easily replenished.”
“The power system is okay, just lacking fuel. The air bladders have been ruptured but they can be repaired.”
“Most of the equipment on the Battlemecha deck is damaged, but there are plenty of spare parts in the cabin so a large portion can be repaired.”
As Li Yao was checking things over, the Titan’s Eye sent him various sets of data, saving him a lot of inspection time.
“You guys keep fighting off the demons and don’t let the monsters disturb me. I will need two to four hours to repair the airship. As long as this airship is repaired, we can consider this base as occupied,” Li Yao said.
The airship base didn’t generate any military merit gains, but it could provide all kinds of supplies needed for the airship. As long as they had the airship, the military merits from a medium-sized base wouldn’t matter.
With wings, Li Yao started repairing. As the number of monsters decreased, Li Yao could fly around more using his wings.
It was much easier to use wings to go up and down, plus Li Yao’s engineering skills allowed him to store items the backpack couldn’t.
The demons here were sparse, so they weren’t accumulating military distinctions very quickly.
Later on, they couldn’t see any demons at all. The Starfire team members decided to help out on the airship.
Four and a half hours later, Li Yao finally finished repairing the airship.
A Starfire Guild flag was slowly raised on the mountain top, followed by the arrival of three hundred angels.
“Greetings, sir.” The leading angel saluted Li Yao.
“Good. Make this base operational as soon as possible,” said Li Yao, “Don’t worry about cleaning the base for now. Just check this airship and supply all the ammunition it needs. I want this airship in the air within two hours.”
“Yes, sir.” The leading angel, followed by everyone, checked the airship, then left about thirty individuals behind. The rest flew to the base.
Soon, the others heard a loud rumbling noise, followed by angels constantly transporting goods to the airship via a teleportation array.
The rest of the Starfire team, on the other hand, went offline to rest.
Two hours later, what appeared in front of everyone was a brand-new airship.
In stark contrast to the goblin’s crude and primitive style, the celestial airship appeared solemn and grand, and radiant.
In Li Yao’s view, standing out like this was like being a live target, but that’s the celestial style.

Moreover, in this trial ground, there were hardly any natural enemies, so Li Yao could accept a bit of luminescence.
“Let’s get going,” said Li Yao. The two hundred additional summoned skeletons got on the airship too.
Adding Feng Yi’s pets, they had almost three hundred summoned creatures. Some acted as sailors, some operated the ground-to-air launchers, others operated the cannons inside the cabin.
The Unparalleled Sorceress was in control of the main cannon in the middle, while a portion of the skeletons infiltrated the Battlemechas docked on the airship deck.
Li Yao was personally at the helm. As the mechanical components and propellers roared to life, the airship slowly began to lift off…
