Chapter 983 Who Was It?

"f.u.c.k!" Liam"s heart thumped. He could only vaguely sense the powerful aura that was hurtling toward him at full speed, but it was definitely not Luna. 

So it was an ison? The chance of any other living being present in this area was very slim, especially when a Level 200 hive queen was ruling the entire place.

But weren"t all the isons already dead? 

The Queen of the hive hill was fighting against him, so every single ison in this area at least should have been present here, and he had ma.s.sacred every last one of them. 

There was no way another ison was left out. Unless… 

Was there someone above the Queen? Or maybe the isons had a way of traveling from one place to another, just like how the whole army had teleported in front of him?

Liam found several thoughts flash across his mind. However, he snapped out of it.

It did not matter what the creature was or who the creature was, it was definitely an enemy, a powerful enemy at that. 

And in his current condition, this was nothing short of a death sentence.

This means that the worst thing that could happen was happening right now. Liam had already prepared for this scenario, so he did not hesitate and shouted. "Luna! Now!" 

Hearing the urgency in his voice, the white fox appeared next to him immediately and grabbed onto him as fast as she could. Her figure then blurred, blasting forward at an incredible pace.

The two of them ran right into the snowstorm toward the location of the magic shop. This was because Liam knew something that the other human being hadn"t figured out just yet.

When in danger, one can always find shelter in the local magic shop. 

Of course, this was only temporary and for a very short period of time, but once one entered the vicinity of the magic shop, they would be safe from even a high-leveled enemy.

In his past life, several people had run into nearby magic shops when they were chased by something powerful. At first, they were able to take cover, but a while later, they were always kicked out.

The fairies particularly took pleasure in kicking them out at opportune times. The group of bloodthirsty beings enjoyed the pain and misery of kicking someone out right when they needed help.

However, in Liam"s case, it was different. If he could just reach the magic shop in time, then he would be able to use the teleportation portal to move to another location in any part of the world. 

The enemy chasing him wouldn"t be able to follow him inside, and also the fairies in the shop wouldn"t be able to kick him out. 

This was, in fact, the only reason why he came alone, even without his newly forged golems to probe this zone. 

This, combined with Luna"s ability to cross great distances in a short time, had always been his fallback plan to return to safety.

And now he just had to execute it… This was easier said than done.

"d.a.m.n it," Liam gritted his teeth and muttered as he could still sense the powerful presence approaching them at great speed, drawing nearer by the moment. 

Judging from its overall strength, it did not look like they were going to be able to outrun it successfully. At best, it was going to be neck and neck. 

This meant that he had to fight it. There was simply no other way around it. "LUNA!" Liam shouted, and the fox growled as she bolted forward at top speed. 

She could also feel a monstrous aura right on their tail, coming up right behind them, waiting to gobble them up. So she pushed herself to her limits and used every ounce of energy she had. 

Responding to the command of the celestial beast, all the mana around her churned wildly, and she sucked everything in like a vortex. Luna pulled ahead even faster using this.

However, this was still not enough. The enemy caught up to them easily, and Liam could finally see the outline of the figure chasing them.

To his surprise, it was a familiar silhouette. It was an ison!

And the ison in front of him looked exactly like the one he had faced not too long ago!

"Inspect," Liam murmured, and his suspicions were immediately confirmed.

His eyes widened in shock as he saw that there was actually more than one hive queen? How was this possible?

Liam quickly snapped out of it and did not dwell on this new information too much. 

To begin with, the isons were creatures that he had no prior knowledge about, so how could he search for reason in this madness?

He simply had to face whoever stood in front of him, and currently, he was unable to do just this. He was in a half-dead state, and he had to face a Level 200 plus creature in this condition?

This was a fool"s errand.

No. He had to do something else. 

He had to focus on getting to the magic shop on time. He had to defend. But how could he defend against something that was a hundred levels stronger than him?

Liam had a plan. He quickly adjusted his position and steadied himself on the back of the fox. He then swirled the soul energy that was still revolving around him. 

Healing his injured soul had to wait. He needed to cast the soul barrier again.For now, this was his only defense against the hive queen. 

Even against the monstrous blood effigy, his soul barrier had held out for quite a while. So he was counting on it.

Liam only barely managed to prepare himself when the Hive Queen made her move. 

From that distance, she screeched loudly, sending out a ball of corrosive, rotting energy straight for the white fox. The attack sizzled as it ripped through the air, blasting toward the target.

And then it began!
