Chapter 767 The Harsh Truth
<Ding. System Notice: 2 more hours until the game begins to shut down>
As the new notification reminding everyone of their impending doom chimed in, Shen Yue began talking.
"Listen, everyone. The clock is ticking. If you are close to reaching Level 50, stay back in the game, level and form your mana core after consuming the elixir. But if you are not, then please log out and start assembling together."
Her voice reverberated in the guild hall as she addressed everyone present there. She also sent the corresponding instructions in the guild chat announcement segment for those who were not present in the hall.
The guild hall, which was usually lively and thriving, today looked solemn and grave, as if a death had occurred in the family. Most of these people knew what was coming, so they couldn't help but be nervous and shaky.
Rey saw that they badly needed a morale booster, or else this type of atmosphere could be detrimental. "Come on! Why do you guys have long faces? Those idiots out there should be the ones crying at the end of the day."
"We all know what to do. Let's everyone stick together and face this together. Since the beginning of the game, we have been training for this, and we can do it." Rey cleared his throat and shouted. "Everyone say it with me."
"CRIMSON ABYSS FOR THE WIN! WE CAN DO IT! WE WILL SURVIVE!"
All the guild members gathered immediately perked up as they started shouting after Rey one after the other. They had indeed been preparing for this day long and hard!
"CRIMSON ABYSS FOR THE WIN! WE CAN DO IT! WE WILL SURVIVE!"
"CRIMSON ABYSS FOR THE WIN! WE CAN DO IT! WE WILL SURVIVE!"
"CRIMSON ABYSS FOR THE WIN! WE CAN DO IT! WE WILL SURVIVE!"
Loud cheering noises echoed in the guild hall as the team morale quickly shot up. Every single core guild member was already aware of the plan when the day arrived.
Though Liam had not foreseen this kind of development, he thankfully decided to take care of this sooner than later. He mainly did it so that everyone would take the game more seriously, but this was now helping them in crunch time.
Wishing good luck to each other, the group then started logging out one after the other because they knew that the real battle was going to be out there in the world, not inside here!
So unlike the others, they did not care about the gold coins or the money they had invested in the game. They simply deposited in the guild vault everything that they had in the respective slots based on the item's value and then logged out without looking back.
Targeted gathering points had already been discussed and established. Many players previously relocated closer to these locations, but there were also many players who were sceptical and didn't bother with it.
However, now no one dared to be sceptical any longer. The countdown was ticking, and a global bomb was going to go off. So everyone simply packed some necessary items and started heading to the meeting points with their friends and family.
And those who weren't near any designated meeting points could only curse their bad luck and stupidity for not listening to Liam earlier. There were now only less than 2 hours, and it was too late to travel anywhere far.
The others were also doing the same at the designated meeting points as everyone prepared themselves mentally and physically to face the day, which was possibly going to be the worst fucking day in their entire lives.
Meanwhile, time and tide wait for no one as the next dreaded message arrived.
<Ding. System Notice: 1 more hour until the game begins to shut down>
There was now only one more hour until the game completely shut down! Even more panic and chaos spread online!
"Filthy! Disgusting! This is the true nature of these vile creatures." The golden armoured knight spat out as he watched the mayhem in the realm. Standing next to him, Mia indifferently kept staring.
"You don't think so?" The golden armoured knight turned to ask her, curious about her silence. Perhaps she felt lenient as they were her own kind?
However, Mia unexpectedly shook her head. "They are not worth my attention." She pridefully answered without batting an eye. The golden armoured knight looked startled for a second, but then he continued watching the disaster that unfolded in front of him.
The priestess was not wrong. In fact, he also had no interest in watching these insects. As for the person who had piqued his interest and really wanted to observe, he was still hidden from his vision.
"What is he doing? Her eminence mentioned that he possessed not just wyvern souls but also dragon souls, but could he have really somehow managed to forge the dragon souls?" The golden armoured knight silently pondered to himself.
"No, what am I thinking? Ha Ha." He chuckled to himself. He was definitely overthinking. Something like that was definitely not possible.
For a person from the trash realm, already his achievements were applaudable. Anything more than this could only be a dream and not a reality. That was the harsh truth. No one was above this.
However, unbeknownst to him, at the exact same moment… two majestic creatures roared loudly, their thunderous roar and powerful aura crackling the very air surrounding them.
Liam panted as he stared at the two dragon soul minions standing in front of him.
One was a lightning beast whose every breath crackled with power, and the other was an ice beast whose mere presence froze the land around it.
The two dragon undead minions were only Level 10 and Level 12, respectively, but their aura was something else. They stared down at Liam, their gaze filled with myriad emotions.
