Chapter 925 Take The Deal

Seeing that Liam was about to walk away from the shop, Tilia clenched her fist and shouted after him in anger, "Take the offer, Mr. Liam. You need these skills."
"If you think that you can easily hunt down the isons and get the same number of mana cores, then you are sorely mistaken. The isons are not so simple. If you underestimate them, you could even lose your life!"
"Is that so? Thank you for the warning." Liam replied curtly and continued walking without even turning back to look at her.
Tilia pursed her lips tightly and punched a desk near her. "Just wait, you bastard. Maybe you could have gotten the world seed by some shitty luck, but now that you have it, you are already doomed."
"You should have listened to me and traded it for the million mana cores. Maybe then you could have kept your little life. Now you are done for. He He He."
The fairy angrily laughed and then glared at her underlings before turning back to her manager's room. Now on top of the loss in the battleground, she also had to deal with this loss.
Her only consolation prize was the other magic shop in the territory that was almost doing as badly as her.
"Was this the chump who paid his guild registration fees?" Tilia tapped her finger on her desk as she silently pondered with a smirk on her face.
In fact, she would have been pissed at this situation also because she would have gained a lot more with late fees and other fees added to the guild registration than if the whole thing was paid in a single shot, but this sudden influx of cash had improved her standing a little among the other stores, so she wasn't too bothered by it.
"Maybe I should have a talk with Aron. That old fart should be a lot more pissed off at this bastard. He He He." The fairy grinned in silence as she stared at the blank wall in front of her, with numerous thoughts running through her mind.

Outside the magic shop, Liam was already on his way back to the ison hill hive. Since he was not able to gather more information about the 'world seed', he decided to deal with that later.
After all, the more pressing issue at hand was still these isons. The fact that the magic shops even began giving such massive discounts on their skill books and items was proof enough of how dangerous this new second wave of the apocalypse was.
If one managed to survive this hurdle, then there were enormous gains to be had, including mana cores, precious materials, and a fast level-up, but the thing was… surviving this wave was not that simple.
Only because it was Liam was he able to take care of things because he managed to arrive at the spot on time. Without him, the rest of the Crimson Abyss was not at all able to cope with the swarm.
And this was considering that the Crimson Abyss main team was present on the spot. They had epic-grade weapons, legendary items, experienced fighters, and mages and not to mention a decent number on their side.
Yet, dealing with the swarm was next to impossible, thanks to the unbelievable number of insects and the array of poison attacks they had in their arsenal.
The thing was, if Crimson Abyss faired so poorly in this second wave, then what about the others?
Wouldn't this single wave be enough to wipe out the rest of humanity and convert their world into a wasteland? What use were the advantages of this wave if no one survived to claim them?
Liam couldn't help but shake the feeling as if he was missing something. They needed to visit another swarm to really understand this second wave. Also, it was time the guild had some decent training.
After he arrived back at the base, he silently went to his designated residence. Everywhere around him, people were pretty much doing the same thing as the entire guild was exhausted from dealing with the swarm.
There were also many casualties, and several people lost one or more of their limbs. So, on the whole, the atmosphere was very bleak. People were saying prayers for their loved ones, worrying about their own future and the uncertainties of their current life.
Liam knew exactly how they felt because he was in their shoes once upon a time. However, he still had no answer or words of consolation for them.
If one wanted to survive, then one had to fight and become stronger. That was the only way. Even he was not above this rule.
Maybe right now, everyone was too tired, worn out, and beaten down to realize this, but he was sure that at least some of them would come to their senses after they had some time to think about things.
He had also already had a chat with Lan Ganjie about this and gave permission for more people to step into the beginner's dungeon for training. Unless anyone showed special promise, this was their starting point at the moment.
As for the Crimson Abyss main team, Liam had plans of his own. "There are still three hours before the meeting time, I should take some rest."
He walked into the residence and started rummaging through his spatial artifact for some food he had stored earlier when unexpectedly, three young and beautiful-looking women dressed in traditional maid uniforms came rushing towards him with small smiles on their faces.
"Master, may I help you take a bath?"
"Master, may I serve dinner for you?"
"Master, may I remove all these soiled clothes?"
Liam blinked and directly walked out of the residence to really make sure he was entering the right house. "Hmmm… this does seem to be my house."
Then what the hell was all this?
