Liam watched the scene unfolding in front of him with rapt attention. It looked like Jonathan had brought the majority of the vampires over to the main battlefield for the guild war challenge.
So there weren't that many vampires here, only about a few hundred or so, which wasn't a big number to handle. However, that was for him.
On the other hand, the Crimson Abyss guild was very divided and spread out at the mont. Even the main core mbers were in different parts of the world, struggling in this new world by themselves.
So for Alex and the rest of the group fighting in front of him, this wasn't an easy ordeal by any chance. In fact, Liam hoped that it wouldn't be. He wanted the vampires to challenge them and thereby slap the harsh reality onto their faces.
This was because Liam did not plan to stay around for much longer.
This was not sothing he had decided in the spur of the mont based on the guild war, but ever since he crushed all the portals that showed up on day 1, he had been thinking about this.
In his last life, for the strength he had, he was content with exploring only this region. His goal was also only surviving.
However, things were different this ti around. He could no longer afford to sit around and wait for things to happen. He had only done this for a couple of weeks or so, but there was already a consequence for his actions.
A guy who was hardly ever a threat to him had shown up out of nowhere with a power that was foreign to him. Moreover, his other friends knew where exactly to find him now.
They might not be able to travel directly to him just yet, but the race had begun, and whoever reached the end goal first would win. Liam did not want to fall behind in this race.
He silently mulled over things as he watched Alex swing her epic-grade shield skillfully at the three vampires who charged towards her.
Before the shield could even touch them, the three vampires were pushed back by an invisible force that Liam knew to be divine energy.
The three vampire grunts did not even understand what hit them as they were cleanly sliced and diced the next instant by Alex's next move as she swung her heavy broad sword down. Once again, her movent was empowered by divine energy.
"Good." Liam nodded. Alex seed to have gotten more proficient at mixing her attacks with mana and divine energy. This gave him more confidence that she would be able to take charge in his absence.
His gaze then shifted to i i, who was busy casting her own spells. The erald crown on her head glead as she sent bursts of fire at the vampires, not letting anyone get near her and also blocking a few more ready to pounce on Shin Soo.
Shen Yue, on the other side, was leading her own massacre as she danced around with her two daggers, each and every move of hers lethal to the opponents who ca near her.
She seed extra srizing. Even the vampires who lunged at her throat appeared startled and dazed as they gazed at her up close.
Next to the group, Rey had climbed up a tree not too far away, not too close, and he aid for the vampires trying to overwhelm the group, taking them down one after the other.
Everyone worked together in perfect coordination, with the more skilful and talented fighters at the border of the group and the less confident ones at the centre or slightly behind.
The entire group was fully surrounded by vampires, and yet they managed to keep the upper hand in the fight by ticulously watching each other's backs.
On the other side, the granny's group also perford with equal gusto and technique. The only ones falling behind were Lan Deming's and Lan Fen's group.
Even as Liam watched, one person's head was mauled by a vampire as he couldn't block the enemy on ti.
However, Liam still did not show any signs of interfering. They had to get through this battle on their own, despite the number of casualties. If he were lenient now, then they would pay the price for it ten folds in the future.
Liam silently watched the fight from the sidelines as he strengthened his resolve and made up his mind.
He briefly considered taking Shen Yue and i i with him, but the places he would venture to might be far too dangerous for their own good.
Instead of taking them with him, it would be safer for them to remain right here and slowly improve at their own pace.
Soon another hour passed by, and finally, the vampires were brought under control with all the unwelco intruders taken care of.
The entire place was a complete ss, with several buildings damaged beyond recognition. There were also a few casualties here and there. The entire settlent that had been thriving only a couple of hours ago was now wrecked and made unlivable.
In the midst of this ruckus, Liam and Luna glided down to land in front of Alex and the group. "We are done. We won the war." Liam announced the news.
Everyone stared at him in relief as they also looked around and saw that, finally, everything had settled down. They had successfully weathered the storm on both ends and were now in the safe.
However, the next second, Liam opened his mouth again. "I will be gone for a few weeks. I hope everyone can take care of yourselves while I am gone."
"There might be more guild war challenges, but don't accept any of those. Focus on building your strength and improving yourself. Do you understand? I will be back soon."
And before anyone could digest this sudden news, Liam smiled and waved at the bunch as he once again hopped onto the Luna and the two of them disappeared into the distance.
"Huh? What the fuck just happened?" Alex blinked in a daze.
