Re: Evolution Online

After taking down the first mob, Liam ordered Luna to join the fight, and the group began clearing the next floor in full swing as fast as they could.

The physical prowess of the hulking orcs took a little time to get used to, but eventually, the group got the hang of it, and they began clearing the mobs one after another.

This floor was bigger than the previous one, and all the mobs consisted only of hulking orcs.

Liam did not bother summoning the rest of the soul minions, as they wouldn't be able to deal with the blows from the orcs. One hit and they would be decimated.

To speed up the process, he also participated in the fights this time. He cracked his knuckles and took out the black dragon sword, which he hadn't held in a while.

The sword rested silently in his hands.

Liam couldn't help but roll his eyes at the weapon. It was this same weapon that had caused him so much pain just a while ago, but now it looked so innocent and docile.

The dragon souls within the weapon also seemed suspiciously quiet.

It was almost as if they were trying to get their strength back so they could attack him with all their power when the last seal was broken.

"Well, we will see about it then." Liam grinned and dashed forward at the group of five hulking orcs, his eyes glistening with excitement. It looked like he was about to hug his old childhood friends.

He dodged the attacks coming in hot from the left and the right and then dove down as he slashed at the big guy in front of him.

Liam felt the blade of the sword cut through the thick, muscular, fleshy mass, and the grin on his face widened. It was good to keep getting free experience points without doing anything personally, but getting his hands dirty felt much better.

He slashed at the big guy repeatedly and made quick work of the orc. After a few seconds, he quickly got used to the hulking orcs' fighting pattern, and the rest of the fight went even smoother.

After the fifth mob, he was almost matching the wyverns' and Luna's speed as they took down the orcs at the same pace.

But this quickly changed again as Liam overtook the other group at the end of the first hour. His speed was much faster as he started taking down the hulking orcs in just a few blows.

Despite that, the rest of the dungeon was still long and never-ending. After twelve hours, the total number of hulking orcs tallied to a whopping 1200, and finally, the dungeon floor was emptied out.

"That's another 300 mana cores, 30 items, and 4 weapons."

Liam licked his lips as he walked over to the dead-end wall that marked the end of the long cavern network. He then lifted his hand casually and punched through the wall, revealing the passageway for the next floor.

As if the monsters inside were waiting just for him, they came forward to greet him as soon as they heard the sound of the boundary wall crashing down.

Liam stared at the bizarre creatures standing in front of him, and the grin on his face stretched from ear to ear. "You guys will make perfect stepping stones for me."

Today was going to be a good day.

He dove forward and initiated the fight, with Luna and the wyverns joining him in the action. The group then began another long, arduous grind that lasted several hours.

After the [Hulking Orcs], there was the [Titan Orcs], which were creatures of physical perfection. A single hit almost took away 1/6th of Liam's health. They also had very high physical defense and magic defense.

There were about 2000 of these titan orcs, which were followed by an entirely different type of orc on the next floor, the [Abomination Orcs].

These big guys were 30 feet tall, the same height as the titan orc, but they were enormous in size and not exactly lean and muscular.

They were flabby and round, with fat and flesh abundant on their grotesque bodies, which had all sorts of weird, irregular features. Some of them had three heads, some of them had five heads, and some of them had extra hands and even extra legs.

They were truly horrendous to look at. Only their faces remotely resembled those of orcs.

And it was not just their physical appearance, these Abomination Orcs were quite nasty in that their attacks varied greatly. They had a range of both physical attacks and magic attacks in their arsenal, and they threw these at Liam and the soul minions at random times.

Moreover, the titan orcs were around level 70 to 80, while the abomination orcs were around level 80 to 90. The difficulty of the dungeon floors was now really starting to pick up.

When Liam reached the abomination orcs, he was so evenly matched with these grotesque creatures that he could no longer power level with his soul minions.

Both for the titan orcs and the abomination orcs, he had to take the center stage and get down and dirty with his own hands while the soul minions stood at the back and provided long-range support to merely help him in the fight.

He added a few more minions to the mix and basically used anyone who could stand far away and shoot an attack forward. He personally acted as a tank for these guys, keeping all the orcs' attention to himself.

Only Luna was still standing side by side with him in the fight as she tried to distract the orcs by using a combination of her blur skill and her fire affinity. She roasted the orcs left and right without getting tired, showing her full potential.

However, even with her help, the fight was extremely tiresome and grueling. On the bright side, the experience points were higher and the drop rate was improving.
