Re: Evolution Online
chapter-953

Haaaa… Liam panted hoarsely as he looked around the land he was standing upon. He could only barely recognize it. Everything around him was charred and barren.

Fissures spread everywhere, creating several deep rifts here and there. There was no sign of the hive hill or anything living for that matter. The whole area was even sunken below the ground level.

For that 5 seconds, everything that was unfortunate enough to taste Liam's soul energy-packed punches or even the resulting waves of violent energy all dropped dead.

Only after the 5 seconds ended did the chaos stop.

Liam let out a big sigh and then he swayed slightly before collapsing on the ground. Sensing the change even from a distance, Luna madly dashed toward him.

"Master, Master, are you ok?"

Liam flinched. He only had a sliver of consciousness left in him. Using that last bit of energy, he slowly took out the water canister from the spatial artifact and drank a mouthful of the world seed water.

This time Luna sighed in relief. The white fox knew that her master would be alright as he had taken the magic water. Liam as well tiredly laid back waiting for the water to work its wonders.

However, the next instant, something that the two of them did not expect happened. A wave of crippling pain swept past Liam's body along with an unbearable itch.

Liam immediately knew that he was going to pay for this. The healing process this time wasn't going to be that simple. He felt every pore in his body open up to suck in the mana around him and every cell tingling with the electric energy.

"Ugh." Liam grunted in pain, but it was just the beginning. His face turned as pale as sheet as the mana in his body started doing the work.

The first time around his body had healed considerably fast and though it was painful, it was still manageable.

He bore with it and within minutes, he was back to a somewhat normal condition, perhaps a little weaker because of the mental exhaustion and soul exhaustion that needed time to recover.

However, now things were different. Liam felt everything happening in his body. Even single inch of his body was screaming and crying in pain and his brain received the brunt of it.

The recovery had started, but so did his personal hell.

"Aaaargh!" Liam screamed as he writhed around on the ground like a worm.

Meanwhile…

The two golems continued running away at top speed, carrying all the guild members. Earlier when they had used wyvern soul minions as rides, several people had found it bizarre and couldn't get used to it.

But now, they were sitting uncomfortably on these giant chunks of metal and were clinging to their lives, holding onto the golem with everything they had so as not to get tossed away in the wind.

For this madness, the wyverns were a hundred times better!

However, no one dared to complain because these two golems were the only reason they were even alive at the moment.

The Crimson Abyss guild members turned back and looked at the area they had just left with fear etched in their hearts. The entire place was now a trashland. Everything was uprooted. It was as if a natural disaster of huge proportions had struck there.

As if this wasn't enough to make them apprehensive, there was also the other question lingering heavily in everyone's minds. Just what was happening over there? What or who was responsible for this kind of destruction?

Everyone had seen the bigger isons, the Queen's Generals who had rounded up Liam. They had fully witnessed that fight along with Liam's efforts to break through the hive hill's barrier. So this left the obvious doubt in their minds.

Did something step out of the hive hill that was responsible for all of this?

While everyone in the guild uniformly wondered about this, the golems finally came to a stop 5 to 10 seconds after the disturbance had died down. The two then stopped moving as per Liam's command.

The others as well realized this as they saw that the ground underneath them was no longer shaking. The tremors had all stopped.

This meant… that the fight was over?

"What the hell is happening over there?" Alex gritted her teeth in anger.

She was raging inside that she was once again unable to provide any help to Liam and had to run away like this when things got serious.

Her weakness in front of these truly strong beings felt like a tight slap on her face. If every single time, all she could do was helplessly run and save her own skin like this, when was she ever going to stand next to him and fight for their survival?

Just like her, Shen Yue and Mei Mei were also worry stricken. None of them knew about Liam's latest skill that he had acquired so they had all assumed the worst and were worried that an even more powerful Ison had appeared.

If that Ison were really capable of mass destruction like this, then would Liam really be able to stand up against such a creature?

Why did he sent them away? They should have all stood together and fought that monster as a group! Tears trickled down their eyes as they silently stared at the distance.

If he did not survive this, then… everyone remained deathly silent. No one wanted to think about this. They silently waited for some kind of signal or response from Liam or even the golems. They just wanted to know if he survived this.

Seconds slowly ticked by and suddenly a voice chimed loudly, breaking this mournful atmosphere.

"You guys are being stupid. I think that was big bro's work." Rey shrugged casually. "Think about it. Big bro had sent us away at the right time. None of us got hurt. Everything was under his control. So this should also have been caused by him! I am sure of it."
