Re: Evolution Online
chapter-1075

'Its level is not for nothing.' Liam thought as he felt the hard scales block his repeated sword slashes. He needed to kick things up a notch. Otherwise, this fight was not going anywhere.

However, just as he was about to go in all out on a vital slash, suddenly the scales on the snake started shimmering and every single one of them dislodged!

Before Liam could get his bearing, all the scales sped toward him like arrows. Only these arrows were brimming with immense power. They were also shooting at him with incredible speed. If a single one also managed to reach him, there was going to be blood.

Liam immediately moved. He only barely managed to erect another mana barrier blocking the attack when the first one crumbled instantly.

But the moment he focussed on the serpent completely to block the attack. The frog once again spewed out its attack. As if this was not enough, the crocodile opened its maw and something vile seeped out of it, the entire area becoming filled with a brown haze.

In the midst of this brown gaze, two laser beams shot forward. Liam immediately moved to evade the attack. However, the other beast was still going strong. The serpent's scales hurtled toward him like a storm of deadly projectiles.

Dodging everything that was coming his way, Liam relied on his instincts and quick reflexes to evade the onslaught. He pumped his body full of mana as he pushed his agility to the limits. He darted and weaved, his movements swift and agile, narrowly avoiding the incoming missiles.

However, the onslaught was relentless, and Liam knew that evasion alone wouldn't be enough to survive. He needed to take control of the battle and turn the tide in his favor.

But first, he needed to separate the three damned guardians!

Dealing with them individually would give him a better chance of victory. With the three beasts attacking Liam simultaneously, he was pretty much submerged in a sea of putrid poison, sharp metallic scale barrage, and fiery explosions.

Even with his stamina and superior mana core, Liam was struggling to evade all of the attacks. He was blitzed non-stop by the three of them.

And soon, Liam slightly slowed down. One attack hit him directly, sending him hurtling several meters backward.

Grimacing in pain, Liam quickly regained his footing. But before he could react, the serpent came lunging at him with its jaws wide open, ready to deliver a crushing bite.

With no time to spare, Liam shifted his focus and instinctively raised his sword to block the incoming attack. The force of the serpent's bite sent shockwaves through his body, causing him to once again stagger backward several meters.

The serpent pushed him again and again and Liam kept falling back unable to stand up against it. The serpent's eyes glowed viciously as it leaped to devour its prey.

However, when it lunged toward Liam for the tenth time all of a sudden he no longer wobbled and stood firm, with a grin plastered on his face. "Hello!"

Blood trickled down Liam's lips as he unleashed the trump card he had been saving for so long. "Attack!" He commanded and the next second, the entire area was filled with a white mist with hundreds of soul minions materializing out of nowhere.

They probably had only a couple of seconds before the other two realized what was happening and joined the fight and Liam intended to use these 2 seconds well.

Just like how the three guardian beasts bombarded him with attacks left and right, not giving him an opportunity to relax, now the tables turned and the hundreds of soul minions did the same.

Though the undead portals and the undead attack were meant for distraction, they also served the purpose of strengthening the army of soul minions.

And not just the undead. All the efforts of farming anything and everything ranging from demons to isons showed as several of the minions were now around Level 70.

The wyverns especially were Level 75 and headed the onslaught by unleashing a torrent of various attacks.

Now it was the serpent's turn to grimace in pain. Though its exterior was hard and the beast overall had a high physical defense thanks to its scales, Liam previously had done a number of it when he slashed the beast with his sword.

Every time he had attacked the snake, he had chipped a little bit here and there. In front of the combined attack of the sea of soul warriors, the snake writhed and coiled in pain.

But when it turned to attack the insects causing it so much agony, Liam did not let that happen. His soul attacks might have been sealed at the moment but he was still a mage.

Not holding back, he used his mana core to the fullest extent possible and summoned several massive fireballs one after the other. He dashed up close and slammed these fireballs right onto the serpent's face, not allowing it to dodge even one attack.

He conjured a violent hungry firestorm swallowing the serpent wholly making the creature twitch, toss and turn, its entire being burnt alive. Liam continued to feed it with mana. He gave it more and more and more mana until he was sucking the place dry.

The intensity of his flames was so much that even the sand around them burned. The serpent hissed, unable to bear the attack.

Caught off guard by the sudden onslaught, its defenses crumbled. It thrashed in agony, unable to retaliate effectively against the overwhelming force of Liam's assault combined with that of the soul army.

However, this was still not enough. Before the beast could take critical damage, the frog and the crocodile wisened up and arrived at the site to provide backup.

The draconian princess had been correct. The three beasts were attacking in coordination. The frog leaped and arrived while the crocodile slithered at an incredible speed treating the desert sand like water and once again filled the space with the brown haze.

As if this was not enough, the frog shot something wet and slimy at the snake and right in front of Liam's eyes some of the snake's injuries were healing at a visible speed.

And just like that, once more the guardian beasts took charge of the battle and Liam was being pushed back.

"Move back!" Liam immediately ordered his soul minions to stay away from the area. Only the wyverns still dared to hover in the skies, attacking at opportune times.

The other soul minions backed away, lest they be blown to smithereens by the combined force of the three guardian beasts.

Without the soul army supporting him front and center, Liam's side lacked a punch. The situation was not looking good.

However, Liam only wore a smile on his face as he once again blocked and parried every attack thrown at him. "Just as I thought…" He mused before resorting to what needed to be done.
