Re: Evolution Online-Chapter 1034 Kill Them Both, My Liege!

1034 Kill them both, my liege!

Liam perched on the mound of insect remains, a smirk playing on his lips. "This isn't nearly enough," he taunted at the two anxious men.

"Beg for your life. Open your mouth and beg me for it."

The draconian princess heard him and cackled maniacally. "Ha ha ha!

I love it! This is how a true king should behave!"

With a sudden burst of energy, she lunged towards Liam, wrapping her both arms around his neck. "Kill them both, my liege!" she purred, her breath hot against his cheek.

What the hell was happening? Was this woman crazy? Why was she suddenly after them that too for no reason?

The second guy might not know anything about Liam, but Caden knew him somewhat, at least enough to tell that the Liam in front of him was completely unrecognizable, like a different person altogether.

After the fight, he had become that much worse.

It was as if he had gone off the deep end and become a crazed maniac through and through. Negotiating with him had been difficult before, but how could he even begin to converse with this psycho now?

Or perhaps this was all the woman's doing? Was she now controlling Liam?

As if Liam had heard the Oracle's thoughts, he directed his indifferent gaze toward the Oracle.

"Don't worry. She's just a plaything to me, like you," he remarked.

The dragon princess pouted at his words, but Liam ignored her and cast a cruel glare at the two standing and shaking.

"Am I to assume you're not going to talk? You have nothing else to offer me?"

Liam's face twisted in malice. "This is not personal. I just need to make sure that the prediction would come true one hundred percent."

Hell no! Immediately, the monk squealed like a pig.

"Wait! I can lead you to treasures! I know of precious herbs that will never fail you. With me at your side, the world - this world and all others - will be yours!"

"Heh, is that so?" Liam sneered. "Hmmm... perhaps... useful?"

He shifted his gaze to the second individual. "And what about you?"

Unlike the monk, Caden looked defiantly at Liam.

However, it was to no avail, as Liam could clearly sense the man's barely contained nervousness and anxiety, seeing right through his facade.

"Just speak." Liam laughed at his face.

Caden remained silent for a moment, but then quickly spoke up. He knew he couldn't afford to test the monster's patience.

"I can lead you to Mia," Caden said solemnly.

"Mia? Nope, pass. I know where she is. When I make that divine temple bitch pay, my slave will automatically return to me." Liam shrugged as if he couldn't care less.

Caden's expression changed. He hadn't expected this.

He thought he could buy his way out of this situation with this offer, but Liam wasn't budging. More like the current him didn't care too much for Mia or anyone else for that matter.

"I can also lead you to treasures--" Caden started to speak.

"Pass. Already claimed," Liam interrupted him with a laugh, pointing to the monk.

Caden gritted his teeth. It seemed as if this guy was determined to kill him right then and there. He desperately searched his mind for something that could possibly change Liam's mind.

And then he remembered something. "I can show you where Derek is!" he blurted out quickly. His claim about Mia had not worked so there was a possibility that this wouldn't work either, but...

In the next moment, Liam's expression changed. For the first time, a glimmer of humanity flashed across his face.

"If you lie...you know the consequences."

Caden was relieved that the madman had finally listened to him. He shook his head frantically and denied any falsehood, "I'm not lying. I wouldn't dare to lie in this situation."

Silently, Liam rose to his feet and approached the Oracle. "Show me. Show me now."

Caden could feel the weight of Liam's presence bearing down on him.

He knew that any wrong move could result in excruciating death or perhaps something worse than death.

"I need some time. My level is now back to zero. I don't have any skills. But I know what skill I have to use and how to get it. Please give me some time." He mumbled under his breath.

He knew he was pushing his limits, but what could he do? All he could say was the truth.

He hesitantly looked up at Liam to see what would be his reaction when he noticed the odd expression on the monster's face. He no longer appeared to be focussed on him?

Instead, he seemed to be looking up, his eyes staring at the clear sky above him, fixated on something unknown.

Huh? Caden was confused.

But the next second, his eyes widened in shock as the clear skies above him suddenly turned.

They became dark, violent and turbulent as a massive storm cloud formed overhead, the atmosphere charged with electricity. The same thing could be seen happening everywhere.

Monstrous lightning and thunder rattled the ground beneath their feet, and the entire sky was roiling like a stormy sea.

Caden stumbled back in fear. Even he, who was known for being composed, looked shaken.

This was because he had already seen signs like this two times before now. How could he not recognize the same series of events when they were happening for a third time?

But maybe he was mistaken?

That small hope was also crushed when he noticed that Liam, too, appeared grave and serious.

And then... it began...

Dark, putrid pillars of energy emerged from the earth's depths, appearing all around the world.

Instead of exuding life, these pillars emanated death and decay.

And a second after these pillars popped up, a horde of creatures began to emerge from within them, pouring out in countless numbers.

These creatures, though in frenzy and in a madness to kill anything in their sight, were completely void of any life force.

They were undead.

And with that, the third wave of apocalypse had begun!
