Chapter 755 Stronger
Ahhhh! Neil shouted and buckled down.
Liam as well winced in pain. This was not easy. He was also suffering.
He still did not have the ability to do this properly but he was trying his best not to hurt the person. Even though Neil had complied and was not resisting, it was not that easy to hold onto a living soul.
There was an enormous mental pressure weighing down on him. But he had to do this.
Liam shouted out loud and grabbed the soul that was twitching like a fish out of water, extremely slippery and hard to grasp.
A moment later, he was finally able to do it. Almost instantly his eyes widened. Neil's soul was not complete. He did not have the ability to determine just how much it was damaged, but he could tell for sure that it was not whole.
This meant that everything that he had contemplated was indeed correct.
Liam immediately let go of the soul. He did not want to cause any further harm. He had already confirmed what he wanted to know. That was enough.
Seeing that he had an unsightly expression on his face, Alex felt very uneasy. Something was definitely up. What was happening? She looked at him and before she could ask anything, Liam shook his head.

"Now is not the time. Let's continue dealing with the beast horde. I will explain it to you after this is over."
That's right. While the beast horde event was still going on, he needed to do everything he could to become stronger. He should not miss this chance.
Liam felt like suddenly everything was making sense and he was starting to see what was really happening. At the same time, there was a noose tightening over their necks. They definitely needed to use this event to power up as much as possible.
"Ummm. Should we all make a party then?" Alex asked.
Liam shook his head. "No, I will be levelling up alone. I need you all to help me do something. Get the attention of all the special elites and keep them engaged. I know this way you won't be able to get many experience points but trust me and do it."
Alex nodded. "That's fine. Whatever you need us to do, we will do it." Liam was different at the moment. More serious than she had ever seen him be, so she did not question anything.
"One more thing." Liam interrupted her as she disbanded the current party and made a new one including everyone assembled over there.
"Do you have any exp boost potions with you?" These were the special potions which alchemy Grandmaster Dante had made and banned their guild from purchasing. But knowing Alex, Liam was sure that she would have still managed to collect a couple of these potions somehow.
And just like he thought, she indeed had a few with her. "Here. I am assuming you need three." She handed over three potion bottles to him. From this, she understood what was Liam's current plan.
She immediately jumped down into the fray and shouted, "Come on. Target all the elites and bring them over to this side. Let's help our boss do some power-levelling."
Liam did not say anything. He silently summoned his soul minions.
The elites were time-consuming and gave out fewer experience points and it was far better to farm the other beasts than touch these magically buffed elites.
Earlier Liam didn't think too much about it but now he knew better. While the tutorial wanted them all to gain power, they didn't want them to gain too much also.
But he was going to do it. He was going to improve his strength by leaps and bounds in the remaining time he had. These few weeks were more than enough. He was almost there and he can definitely get there.
And then he was going to stand against the divine temple with everything he had. He was going to become stronger right under their noses and stand against them on their own turf.
Yes, this was difficult but with his class, he was confident he could achieve it. All he needed was some time.
No longer caring about the consequences of the beast horde event or the rewards given out for the same he summoned his minions and ordered them to slaughter all the beasts in sight.
One by one all the members of the soul army made an appearance. Watching this, all the guild members present in the area stared at him dumbfounded.
What was this? How were these creatures standing in front of them? When they had last seen Liam, he had a big army but it was nothing compared to what he had now!
Wyverns, elves, lizardmen, barbarians so many strong minions appeared and immediately started plundering the battleground. Now they understood why their points were so high.
Their big boss had been gone a long time but now he was back with actual dragons as minions!
Wyverns were not dragons but these players couldn't care less about that distinction. As far as they were concerned these monstrously strong creatures might as well be dragons!
Everyone gulped as they watched this mighty army crush everything in sight. The three-headed wyvern in particular stole the show with three different powerful attacks coming out of its three different mouths. What the hell? How could something be so overpowered?
When compared to Liam, they were all clearly at a different place in the game. Realization slapped them in the face. Everyone quickly got down to work as the number of elites slowly started increasing.
As the soul minions slaughtered more beasts, more elites also started to pool. Alex aggroed all the elites and tanked them efficiently. The group somehow brought the situation under their control.
Meanwhile, Liam was standing still. He did not fight or kill or participate in anything. Instead, he only did one thing. He stood and locked onto all the souls around him.
With the experience points automatically raining down on him, he sat down in the middle of this circle of death and took out a black bead. More than farming experience points, right now his attention was on the multitude of souls around him.
This beast horde was his only chance to forge when he was at his strongest and he needed to forge the remaining dragon souls and the wyvern souls.
Without any hesitance, he took out the first wyvern soul and started forging.
THUD! THUD! THUD! Giant mana hammers banged down on the wyvern soul and when it resisted, Liam hammered it relentlessly.
After forging the three-headed wyvern, the backlash from this single soul was nothing big. Besides, he was at his strongest at the moment.
He gritted his teeth and forged the struggling wyvern into submission.
