Re: Evolution Online

"Don't think about useless things when you are fighting."

Alex shuddered. She then smiled bitterly at her wishful thinking. This was not some rosy fairytale, this was the gory reality. There was no prince charming coming to save her, let alone the devil.

Had the poison already affected her so much that she was now starting to hallucinate?

As her mind dulled, the familiar voice sounded again. "You did enough. I am here now." 

The next second, all she saw was a blast of strong, violent mana, and instantly, screeching sounds of the insects filled the air as the space around her was completely evacuated. 

Suddenly, there were no more insects?

She felt a pair of warm hands hug her body and casually toss her somewhere furry and fluffy. 

Then some liquid trickled down her mouth that she quickly swallowed as she did not have the energy to spit it out, and also her throat was that parched.

Surprisingly, as the liquid hit her stomach, a wave of warmth spread across her body, instantly relieving her of several aches and giving her a jolt of energy and stamina.

"Huh?" Alex woke up to find herself on the lap of the person who shouldn't be here at the moment, and yet he was here.

"You are here? But how? The others?" She looked around her in a panic to see that everyone else from Crimson Abyss was also standing safely near her.

Ten wyvern soul minions stood around the group like ten immovable guards, not allowing even a single insect to enter their boundary.

And as for the swarm that was big enough to engulf all of them… they no longer had the advantage in numbers. Liam's soul minions were already busy at work, slaughtering their way through the swarm.

Bright bursts of fire appeared here and there as Luna ran wild on the battlefield. The tiger and the lion were at it like always.

Apart from the usual suspects, there was also a new soul minion that almost looked as bizarre as the insects as it had the upper body of a human being and the lower body of a spider.

Alex became dazed as she watched this unbelievable scene. 

One second they were hopeless and near their deathbeds, but the next second, they were completely overpowering their enemy and massacring them.

The future did not look as bleak now.

This was what real power and strength looked like. 

It was the ability to change the fates of hundreds in the blink of an eye. It was the utter domination of their enemies without lifting a finger. 

Alex smiled as she snuggled closer to the person holding her. A smile appeared on her lips which was a little sad and a little happy. "Thank you for coming for us."

Liam sighed and patted her. As soon as he saw the hive hill appear in the other area, he had a feeling that one could have appeared in their guild territory as well. 

So he immediately rushed here, and thankfully, he wasn't too late.

But the situation here was far worse than he had imagined. 

Originally, he had planned to let the guild take care of the second wave of the apocalypse by themselves in order to toughen them up a bit, but that was before he saw these bizarre insects that were not supposed to be here at the moment.

With one look at the swarm that picked up speed around the hive hill, Liam knew he had to rush back to the guild instantly. 

Just like these people, he had also come in direct contact with another swarm, but with Luna as his ride, these insects could only dream of stopping him.

The fox had really pushed herself to her limits and gotten back here, and luckily everyone was still standing. Liam did not want to think about what would have happened if he had been a few minutes late.

Letting Alex relax a bit, he walked over to his sister and Shen Yue and hugged them both.

"Brother, I am sorry." Mei Mei hugged him tightly and cried to her heart's content, not at all caring that she was fully covered in greenish blood and nasty liquids.

"Brother, I really tried my best. I fought very hard. I am so sorry. I am so sorry."

Shen Yue also silently hugged Liam. Though she was not vocal like Mei Mei, her entire body was trembling. 

Just like Alex and Mei Mei, she also felt personally responsible for this failure. After all, she and Mei Mei were the only ones who possessed legendary items. 

Perhaps if Lan Deming had her daggers, he would have fared much better. She couldn't shake this thought off her.contemporary romance

Liam sighed and calmly consoled the both of them. He gently kissed the two girls, and after they settled down, he walked over to Rey, who was sitting silently on the side.

"Are you also going to tell me that you are sorry?" Liam chuckled.

And for the first time, it looked like the guy who was always smiling like the warm sunshine was not in any mood to smile or laugh.

"Liam…" Rey spoke seriously. "I need to do better. I will not let you down again."

Liam shook his head helplessly. He could see that everyone was still in shock and hadn't gotten over what had happened.

This was normal. When someone comes close to death, it would be an eye-opening experience and perhaps pave the way for a better future.

However, this time things had really been too close. 

Liam never intended to put them in this kind of danger, especially without preparing them for it. If anything, this was a wake-up call for him as well. 

He should no longer be thinking of the past anymore. Everything was different now. The past was the past, and the present was the present.

He had wanted to change himself, and now he successfully did it. He changed himself so much that everything around him also changed drastically.

If he still relied on the past to make decisions, then he would be a fool.
