Re: Evolution Online

Ba ha ha ha! Ba ha ha ha!

"So it is really true…"

Ba ha ha ha! Ba ha ha ha!

Liam threw his head back and started laughing maniacally. He looked at the passageway in front of him, the winding steps leading inward, and he just couldn't believe it.

Not just one damn dungeon! But every damned dungeon had multiple floors?

What the hell were they up to in his last lifetime? How could they not have discovered something so simple?

Perhaps if they had discovered this sooner, they wouldn't have suffered so much! So all that misery and suffering was only because of their foolishness?!

Liam slapped his forehead with this palm as he looked at that passageway. Just the sight of it made him so angry.

However, there was no point in dwelling on the past. Now that he knew about these things, there was much better planning that needed to be done.

These dungeons were more than enough to prepare for the end times.

If armies were what was required to stand firm against the terror that was about to be unleashed then he would create these armies.

If it was still not possible to rally others to stand together and survive the end times, then he would create an army of his own against whatever was coming!

Liam rushed in, followed by his minions, and started clearing the rest of the dungeon as well. Just like in the one before, he cleared until the fifth level on this dungeon too when the same message flashed in front of him again.

<Ding. Congratulations. You have cleared the first section of the dungeon. The dungeon is now beginning to update. Time remaining: 24 hours>

He dismissed his minions and stepped out of the dungeon. He now needed to wait for a day to see what happened next but Liam was optimistic.

These dungeons were definitely more complex than what he knew. And if the dungeons were like this, then there were probably also other things that he didn't know of yet.

For all he knew, the answer to becoming stronger and coming out on top of this apocalypse was already available to him. He just had not figured it out yet.

Liam gazed at the dungeon portal for a few minutes and then the duo made a move.

Now that he had settled the two dungeons, all he could do for the next 24 hours was wait.

So he went around with Luna farming some more elite bosses and closed down some portals before returning to the base later that same night.

As soon as he stepped back into the hotel, Mei Mei, Shen Yue, and Ning Xi immediately rushed forward to greet him. It looked like they were eagerly waiting for him to learn more about the dungeons.

However, Liam shook his head. "I will explain everything. Give me some time." He was not 100% sure yet what the update meant so he did not want to endanger anyone's life.

"Also, ask the group to keep this information confidential."

Liam then had some dinner with the group and he received more updates about what was happening in the base.

It looked like the number of people flocking to their base and requesting to join the guild was still increasing.

"Most of these people are players from the tutorial game. They don't seem to be particularly talented." Rey explained.

"Oh? Did you guys conduct some sort of test?" Liam took a bite of the roasted wolf meat and asked.

"Yes, bro. I came up with the idea." Rey grinned. "Everyone was doing sparring practice anyway. So we did some recruitment tests for those claiming to be players."

"I mean we are still putting them in the third string after all our combat guild members and the non-combat guild members. We are being careful."

"Hmph."Alex sneered. "They are just fair weather jackals. They want to join us now seeing how our guild managed to come out on top. Otherwise, why would they line up outside our gates? Hmph."

"You are not wrong." Liam chuckled. "They just want to be on the side which is stronger. Tomorrow if another guild has a stronger base, they would probably leave us and join that one. But…"

He paused and added, a pensive look in his eyes. "We need the manpower. Don't forget that our guild is very spread out at the moment. We don't even know how many people survived and how many didn't. So let's give these people a second chance."

"As long as they stay within the lines and do their part without creating any disturbances, let them be. But the moment they start something, kick them to the curb. There will be no third chance."

Everyone agreed. These conditions might be a bit harsh, but someone's careless mistake could cost a lot of people their lives. So they needed to be strict.

"Ok. I will be leaving now." Liam did not sit around and talk for a long time, as he had a big list of things he needed to accomplish in these 24 hours. More importantly, he needed to pay attention to the details.

"Bro, are you going to meet that fairy?" Rey chimed in with excitement.

Immediately, several eyes in the group turned to look at Liam. Shen Yue and Mei Mei, both looked a little startled. Alex rolled her eyes.

Some other women, including Ning Xi, looked at him questioningly.

Only Shin Shoo had a bitter smile as he looked at Rey and shook his head. Bro, you just casually tossed a bomb.

Liam, on the other hand, was too preoccupied to notice this ripple effect. "Yes, I am on my way to that shop. There is a lot I need to ask that woman about. In private." He answered in a matter of fact manner.

In private? By now everyone had seen the fairy Rey was talking about, so they couldn't help but stare at this remark.

Rey was the only one who smiled and gave a thumbs up. "Good luck, bro. Conduct a thorough investigation. He He He."

To everyone's surprise, Liam further added fuel to this fire. "Yes, I plan to." He made a suspicious comment and left.

Hearing this, Alex dropped her spoon in shock, and even Shen Yue looked a little startled. What the hell was going on here? They looked dumbfounded, but Liam and Luna had already disappeared.

The fox took off and directly landed in front of the magic shop, their next stop. Liam hopped down and walked into the inconspicuous shop that opened up into a grand store.

He looked to the attendant on his right and immediately asked for the main boss. "Can I talk to your manager?"

"Ha Ha. I am right here. Why are you looking for me so eagerly, Mr. Liam?" A melodious voice floated across the hall.

Liam turned to see the familiar face, painted with a flirtatious smile that was enough to charm any man into a spell. He smirked. "Thanks for the tip. I did find something better to do with my time."

He could see his words have an immediate effect on the creature as she looked slightly stunned. The few others in the shop also turned to look at them, listening keenly to their conversation.

Seeing this, the fairy became more flustered.

Liam was satisfied with this outcome. "Shall we go inside and talk?"

The fairy's sweet smile returned. Nevertheless, she nodded. She lead the way as the two of them returned to the manager's private room.

"What is this tip you are talking about, Mr. Liam? If you say things like that, then I might get in trouble." Tilia sat back in her chair and laughed awkwardly.

Liam sat down opposite her and smiled. "I am talking about the dungeons, Miss Tilia. I will soon be bringing you some good things back from the dungeons."

The fairy narrowed her eyes as a strange glint flashed within them. "You are really astute, Mr. Liam. I don't think there are that many people who are capable of figuring out this hidden secret in just a matter of days."

"Who said that it was me?" Liam smiled. "Unfortunately, I cannot take credit for this, but I am going to take advantage of it."

"Tee Hee. Such humility and honesty in someone so young are very admirable." The fairy coquettishly giggled and stood up from her chair to walk over to Liam.

She gently leaned on the table right next to him, so close that only her scent filled the space between them. "You are a man of many admirable qualities, Mr. Liam."

"Heh. Is that so?" Liam's mouth twitched. The woman's fragrance tickled his nose and made his hands itchy to reach forward and grab her by her slender waist. Something was different today.

Seemingly amused by his reaction, the fairy inched even closer, stopping only a hair away from him. "Yes, Mr. Liam. You are very impressive."

Liam immediately pulled back. He did not know what this person was capable of, so he had to be careful not to fall into some trap.

As for her intentions, he was already aware of them. She was once again trying to manipulate him, but he decided to give her an opportunity to be more direct.

"In that case, how about you reward me with something? You, Miss Tilia, are very knowledgeable about the things currently happening in my world. How about you share with me some of your insights?"
