Re: Evolution Online

621 Attack! Kill !

Liam looked at the beautiful naked woman in front of him and let out a sigh. "Get up." He said to the kneeling figure and chuckled helplessly. The invitation wasn't too bad but he had work to do.

"How about we save this for the celebration afterward?" He gave a polite reply to the dark elf without humiliating her too much.

"I am honored, my Lord." The elf nodded and started putting her clothes back on. "I will put my life on the line and obtain this victory for you at all costs." She gave a passionate declaration before bowing and quietly disappearing from the room.

Liam nodded, "I guess the elixir might have helped her a lot." He watched the spot where the woman had been kneeling down just seconds ago and clicked his tongue.

"Too bad I have to leave these people behind. If there was some way I could take them with me… it will be a huge boost…"

However, that was a far-fetched dream so he did not dwell much on it. His focus was on the rift battle that would soon happen. Meanwhile, he took out his cauldron and started making another batch of various potions.

Right now, Liam held the notable alchemist title in the Kingdom so several other cities had given him some herbs as tributes.

Hiruyu brought over the ones he needed and he started making a few batches of fire-resistance potions, health potions, and mana potions, refilling the reserve he had used recently in the dungeon runs.

Soon all the demons assembled and Liam as well walked out to the main square of the city. Around him, the entire garrison had assembled, all the units, squads, and platoons.

It was an awe-inspiring scene and no matter how many times he saw this scene he would never get used to this. He sucked in a big breath and looked at Hiriyu, "Start the formation."

The demon nodded and tore up the war scroll. Immediately, the entire place was covered with glittering runes and the next instant everyone was teleported.

<Ding. The rift battle now begins>

<Ding. New Quest Available>

<Ding. Conquer the spatial rift>

<Ding. Reward: 10 million experience points>

"This is more like it." Liam hummed at the sight of the familiar notifications and the generous experience point rewards.

Though this was extremely enticing, he did not want to touch these rift battles for one and only reason, he did not want to affect the outcome of this war.

However, with the addition of the mysterious stone tablet and the unknown crystal cores, things changed. He needed more time to properly figure out these unique treasures, the time he couldn't waste with simple mindless grinding.

Taking another deep breath, Liam looked at the rocky mountainous area they had teleported to and shouted loudly, "Let's win this." He immediately summoned his army of soul minions and sprang forward in stealth to meet the opponents.

Ahead of them like clockwork, a group of human beings arrived. From the looks of it all belonged to the same guild as they had their guild outfit on.

All the players also seemed extremely happy. These days a lot of guilds were easily clearing the rift battles and many had set up camps in the nether realm to explore the new world.

So everyone was in high spirits, confidence shining on their faces, not having a single doubt about their inevitable victory.

"Attack! Kill the demons! Let's take down these monsters!" Liam heard the energetic shouts from the front lines, amidst the loud cheers. He grinned. "Let's start." He gave the command on their side too.

With this sort of limited terrain, there wasn't really any special battle tactic. It was going to be a simple head-on fight. Buffs and debuffs flew on both sides along with several attacks and just like that the fight started with a bang.

This time the humans seemed to have more tricks up their sleeves. Liam was sure he had seen many players around Level 38 and Level 40 and yet on their side, the demons' levels were all squished down to 30.

At the same time, the explosive potions also seemed to be at work as he saw several large figures charging forward to the demon's side, each of them having a dedicated healer team.

Not just this, but Liam also caught sight of some fortifying spell scrolls and aoe spell scrolls being used that unleashed all sorts of attacks on groups of demons. These were powerful skills that possibly couldn't be learned by these low-level players without some additional help.

Compared to the first rift battle, this one was a lot more organized and structured. Either the guild had spent a lot of gold coins or the divine temple was handing out these boosts like candies.

In any other rift battles, perhaps they could have won but unfortunately…

Liam ignored the aoe attack scrolls that were bringing down the health of the demons. He asked the guys to move out of the area when targeted. Other than that there wasn't much they could do.

The lack of healers was their glaring weakness but many demons had a special skill called life drain which aided in regaining some of their health back.

Meanwhile, not wanting to fall behind, Liam dashed forward to put in motion their one and only strategy, their overwhelming offense.

The idea was very straightforward and simple. He just needed to take down as many players as he could. Liam dashed ahead to one cluster where the two groups were fighting and unsheathed his sword.

This specific bunch was one of the Level 40 group and the players seemed to be having a lot of fun bullying the Level 30 demons. However, the moment Liam stepped into the ring the winds changed.

"Fuck! Level 54? What is happening? How is this guy level 54?"

Everyone immediately became alarmed, but before they could do anything about it, one by one all the players in the group started falling down. They couldn't even properly see this new enemy. All they could see was the sword that flashed here and there.
