Re: Evolution Online

While the woman looked at Liam weirdly, as if a few screws in his head had come loose, Liam did not care and continued to stare at her. His gaze was fixed on the pair of enraged blue eyes. The next attack slipped his mind as he couldn't ignore the familiar face in front of him.

The white-robed woman was…

But why would the enemy wait so long for him to compose himself, the white-robed woman grumbled something and started materializing a spear of divine energy in her right hand. The sheer intensity of it made Liam's skin crawl, and he snapped out of his daze.

"Mia! Stop! It's me" Liam shouted.

"What are you blabbering about?" The white-robed woman scoffed in annoyance, continuing to make the spear in her hand more deadly.

"You don't remember? Alex and Rey? Do you not remember them?" Liam growled in anger, his voice echoing in the otherwise silent hall.

At that moment, something faint simmered in the woman's blue eyes. Liam immediately felt relieved, as he could feel that she wasn't completely gone.

He did not know what happened in the divine realm, but this was not good. She had completely forgotten him and Shen Yue as if she had been brainwashed. She appeared to have forgotten her own name.

Just what the hell happened? Didn't he change her fate this time around? Why was she again in this pit?

And suddenly, a frightening thought crept into his mind. What if the misfortune that befell her had never been about her uncle? What if this was it all along, and in reality, he hadn't changed anything at all?

No, that was not important right now. Whatever the reason was, whatever her fate was, he had the power to change it here and now! He needed to win this fight at all costs, and he needed to take her away with him, dead or alive!

He clenched his fist and prepared to go all out on the next attack. He started churning his mana core wildly and gave a nod to Luna. This was Mia, after all, a born genius with an innate SSS affinity and an insanely high aptitude for mana.

Furthermore, he had no idea what weapon she was holding or how much she had changed since she had gone missing. Without all this information, he couldn't afford to go easy on her, especially when the stakes were this high.

Liam gritted his teeth and tried casting another [Dark Cutter] again, as he could feel the dilapidated demon temple pulse with strong dark elemental energy.

If this didn't work, he would have no other choice except to overwhelm her with his army of soul minions and take this fight by sheer numbers.

He only held back because he was yet to experiment with just how much his soul minions would suffer under divine attacks. But if worse came to worse, he did not mind sacrificing a few to bring her out of this.

"Stop looking at me with pity!" Mia roared as she couldn't stand the sight of the person in front of her. She stomped her feet on the ground as a pulse of divine energy spread throughout the hall.

Liam jumped up to avoid it but it still took a chunk of his health. She then started dashing towards him with all of her might. Liam sighed. He was already prepared for this. He released the [Dark Cutter], which screamed through the air as the attack burned its way to the target.

Liam did not simply wait. He immediately dashed forward as well to deal the next attack and the attack after that personally with his sword to end this fight. Luna growled as the duo worked up the energy to finish the battle in one go.

The entire temple hall was in chaos. Mana was being pulled in from everywhere. The fight was reaching a crescendo. As the two sides got ready for their most powerful attack, which could have destroyed the temple itself, a strong blast of divine energy ripped through the big hall.

And it was not from Mia.

Liam stumbled and lost his balance, causing his attack to miss the target and hit the air instead. Before he could begin to wonder what just happened, a figure landed right next to Mia with a loud boom, spilling divine energy everywhere.

Liam immediately backed away several paces in retreat as he felt a strong killing intent coming from this person. He was decked in golden gear from top to bottom and each of them was engraved in mysterious runes. This person was dangerous.

Liam's instincts and his gut were screaming loudly, and his fight or flight response kicked in. He couldn't see the level of the person standing in front of him, just as he couldn't see Mia's level.

Could he still stand up against him, or did he need to flee from here?

His eyes darted to Luna, who understood him without any words. She blurred as she silently appeared next to Shen Yue.

However, as if her movement triggered it, a violent, oppressive aura started spilling from the golden figure in front of him. The terrifying aura sunk into him and burned his skin. It pressured him to buckle down.

Liam gritted his teeth. He tried to move but he couldn't. Even though this pressure couldn't match the way the old elf had slammed him down every other second, it was still enormous. Only someone beyond his level was capable of doing this.

What was the meaning of this? If this person was so powerful, why not directly kill him, right here and right now?

Instead, this person was… Liam bit down on his lips and withstood it. The golden guy was forcing him to kneel.

However, Liam clenched his fist and held on. I will not. He stood steady, his feet rooted on the ground, not moving even a damn inch.

The golden figure revealed a fleeting look of surprise but the next second, with a blinding flash of light both he and Mia disappeared.
