Chapter 586 Alive?
Chapter 586 Alive?
"Is our guild under attack?"
Liam looked at Mia for an answer, and she nodded, "Yes, we are dealing with the aftermath of the incident. It is under control. You don't have to worry."
Liam rubbed his chin in contemplation. He was too tired, but at the same time, there was something that he needed to do, and a guild battle like this would be the perfect opportunity for it.
"Let's go outside and take a look." He stood and walked out. His body swayed a little again, but Shen Yue helped him, "Liam, do you need to rest?"
He bitterly smiled. He had consumed the milky way pond water and health potions, so if he was still tired, that meant that he was not hurt physically or mentally.
Resting wouldn't really help him now because if he was correct, then what was causing this weakness could only be… his soul.
"That's fine." Liam smiled and continued heading out. When he reached the entrance of the guild hall, he was immediately stunned. The sounds coming from outside were too terrifying.
"So everyone ganged up on us, huh?"
"Yes," Mia answered. "But we have it under control," she added.
Liam nodded and proceeded to walk outside. Shen Yue called forth her bat, and Liam climbed on top of it. When the creature flapped its wings and flew up, he was finally able to get a full view.
A huge expanse of players flocked outside the guild. The forests could no longer be seen. There were only players and players everywhere.
It looked like the entire Gresh Kingdom was here, and more and more players were still joining in. "Go there," Liam ordered the bat to take him to the main entrance, where Alex was playing the role of conductor for the battlefield.
Surprisingly, she was not using the cannons.
Instead, several players and NPCs littered the compound wall, and together they were bombarding the players outside, picking off the weaklings one after another.
"Heh, when will the battle be over at this rate?" Liam chuckled.
Alex was caught by surprise because she hadn't expected him to recover so soon. "Hi. How are you feeling now?" She stammered, tucking a strand of her red hair behind her ear.
"Why are you not using the cannons?" Liam ignored her question and asked instead.
"Ah." Alex lifted her hand and pointed out to the crater in front of the guild residence. They had indeed used the cannons, but the result was…
"That's why." She said with a helpless smile. "The cannons are too overpowered." She chuckled awkwardly.
"He He. Of course, that's why you should use them." Liam grinned.
"But I am saving it as a backup in case-"
Liam interrupted her, stopping her midway. "No, don't hold back. Everyone's eyes are on Crimson Abyss right now. We will use this opportunity to demonstrate our power."
"Use everything we have. After this fight, the other guilds should think several times before deciding to attack us. They want to take down our guild, they need to pay the price."
"We have taken things slow enough. Let's go faster now!" He shouted.
"Mia!" He called for the priestess and then unexpectedly jumped right into the middle of the fray before anyone could stop him. "HEAL ME!"
For a second, everyone was shocked. Liam was not wearing any armor or anything of that sort. He was still wearing the same torn pants, and his face was also very visible, so everyone recognized him.
However, he didn't seem to care about that. All he cared about was…
With the big grin still visible on his face, Liam took out a random sword from his inventory and slashed down on the person in front of him.
-1500
A huge damage number appeared, and blood splattered everywhere. The berserker fighting at the front died just like that, and as he did, Liam inhaled a big breath.
Not for fresh air but for something else.
"I knew it. I could almost sniff it out." His grin widened, and his face looked maniacal.
Everyone snapped out of their trance.
"Hey! That's Liam! Crimson Abyss' big boss! He is alive! Take him down!"
"He has all the treasures! Kill him!"
"What an idiot! He jumped out of the barrier! Attack! Attack! Attack!"
All the players nearby rushed towards Liam. Several weapons came flying at him. However, Liam was unfazed.
"ALEX, NOW!" He shouted and calmly cast a [Sizzling Tornado] on the front, slashing down the players on his rear. His movements and his casting were flawless and fluid.
And because he had done this suddenly, no one person was able to respond in time.
Who would expect a sane person to jump right in the middle of the enemy camp? Did he not care about his life?
Liam had jumped, wreaked havoc, and grinned like a maniac all in a second, and when others rushed towards him, he immediately retreated.
However, before the others could do the same and follow him…
BOOM!
A loud bang resounded, and the cannon blasted without any warning. The power of this single attack was unbelievable. About 50 players died in the single shot!
And Liam stood at the head of this massive circle of death and destruction and sucked in another big breath!
"Hmmm… I was correct. This is the smell of souls." His grin widened once again. He was now able to sense souls and soul energy much better than before. He hadn't expected this.
He smiled and took another step.
Souls! Souls! Souls! There were so many soul energy fragments in front of him. Every time a player died, they lost a little of their soul energy fragment, and he was able to sense it!
Liam doubted this even before. At that time, it was just a conjecture, and he was not strong enough to verify it. But now…
He walked over and stood in the middle of the big crater, absorbing everything around him to his heart's content.
And his tiredness was finally relieved!
Everything that ached in his body subsided, and he felt refreshed like never before.
