Re: Evolution Online

'Should I just leave?' Liam watched the bunch of military people take a turn for the worst, and he was not interested in picking a fight with them at the moment.

It was both pointless and beneath him to be teaching this group a lesson. Not to mention the chances of them letting him leave without creating a conflict were practically zero.

And as if she could read his mind, Luna also showed up at the exact same moment. There were still a few more vampires loitering around the area. So he had ordered her to take care of it. She was now back, and her timing was impeccable.

'Let's get out of here!' Liam mentally sent her a message, and the white fox blurred next to him as he became five times her normal size. This made the group's expressions further worsen.

Everyone was startled to see the fox appear out of nowhere. The majority of them also instinctively raised their weapons to fire at the fox.

But Liam simply snorted. He did not care about that as he casually jumped on top of the fox.

Mere guns hurting a celestial-grade beast? In their dreams!

Everything happened too fast. With Luna's arrival and his jumping on top of her with his agile movements, the group of armed military men were barely able to keep up. They only had shocked expressions on their face.

More so when they saw Liam ready to ride off into the sunset. He even waved them bye as Luna took off, but with their good fortune, a group of vampires decided to enter the compound at the exact same time.

Dragging along about five women, a dozen vampires showed up on the other side. These beasts saw the damage and destruction, and something became triggered in them instinctively.

They all became agitated and rushed forward toward the military group. Naturally, Liam noticed it first before these men could react or even know that danger was about to befall them.

He scratched his head and looked at Luna. The next second, Luna took care of the problem. The fox dealt with the few grunts in the blink of an eye as she swiped her paw left and right.

Blood splattered everywhere as the vampires shouted and screamed in pain and fell down one after the other. This finally snapped the military group out of their trance.

They gulped as they watched the gory scene, unable to believe what was happening.

Liam did not blame them. This group of vampire grunts were particularly powerful, probably because of how organized they were and the guidance from the 'vampire lord'.

So even though the military group might have taken out vampires like this before, they would have still lost in a fight like this.

However, now everything was taken care of, and momentarily they were not in any danger. Liam did not plan on babysitting them any more than necessary, and he immediately gave Luna the order to leave.

"SIR! Please wait!" A voice shouted behind him. It was the same person who had called him a traitor before.

Rolling his eyes, Liam ignored the guy. However, just as Luna blurred in and out one more time, he heard the second half of the words coming out of the guy's mouth.

"ANOTHER VAMPIRE LORD!"

"Luna, stop." Liam immediately did a double take. Did that guy just say vampire lord? The duo turned around and returned to the same spot at the same speed they had left.

"What did you say?" Liam asked him.

"Sir, we need your help." The leader of the group sighed and calmly explained. The arrogance and the attitude from earlier were nowhere to be seen on his face.

"Sir, I am sorry for offending you earlier. If I am not wrong, are you the person who defeated the vampire lord?"

"Yes?"

The leader once again sighed and smiled bitterly. "I apologize, sir. I apologize for everything sincerely from the bottom of my heart. We are all so frustrated that we became short-sighted and reacted in the worst way."

"The truth is that we have lost a lot of our comrades to this vampire lord. We have been trying to eliminate him and the other vampires for two weeks now, but we have only managed to fail so far."

"We have lost several of our brave brothers and sisters to these beasts. So we sincerely thank you for helping us deal with this monster."

Liam nodded. "That's fine. I understand. Can you tell me more about the other thing? You mentioned that there was another vampire lord? Were you just talking about this one, or do you, by chance, know the location of another one?"

Rather than their apologies, this was what Liam cared about more. As he anxiously waited for the reply, the other guy slowly bobbed his head up and down.

"Yes, Sir. We know the whereabouts of another beast such as this one." The leader replied.

Liam's face immediately lit up. This was awesome! This was going to make his work so much easier!

"My name is Xiao Meng. If you don't mind, would you please accompany us to our base? There, our division leader will explain to you all the details."

"You can't tell me?"

"Please forgive me, sir. I am not aware of all the details. I am a leader of the strike unit. To prevent our intel from falling into the hands of the enemies, each unit is only briefed about the required details."

What the heck? Liam wanted to say something, but he stopped himself. The army had its own way of functioning, and he did not want to get into it at the moment. He just needed this information, and then he would be on his way.

"Alright, let's go."

Luna once again became smaller in size and curled around Liam's neck as the two of them patiently followed the group out of the building's wreckage. It was time to pay this base a visit.
