Chương 964: 964 We know the truth

Liam opened the messages and surprisingly saw that these were direct messages addressed to him personally rather than the guild leader of Crimson Abyss.

"Hmmm?" He quickly opened the first message, and it was from Abraki, the leader of the Assassin's Alliance guild.

"Oh? These guys managed to form a guild outside of the game too?" Liam was impressed.

But then again, the players of this guild were long-time hardcore gamers who probably lived and worked in a gaming studio, so this would have provided them the advantage in handling the post-apocalyptic world.

Together, it wouldn't have been difficult for these skilled fighters to quickly level up and establish a footing in the new world. However, what about the isons? How would they fare against these deadly insects?

Liam was curious about this, so he hurriedly looked through the message even though he was in a rush, and once again, he was surprised!

<Mr. Liam, I am well aware that it is you who were behind this global guild upgrade event. I cannot begin to fathom how much time, effort, and resources this must have cost you. > <We, from the Assassin's Alliance, want to thank you sincerely from the bottom of our hearts for this benevolence. We wish to one day repay you for this generosity, but right now, we want to ask your opinion about a more important matter. > <Mr. Liam, have you fought these insects yet? > Liam smiled.

It was good to know that there were still guilds around that had a good head on their shoulders. At least this group had identified the danger that surrounded them. Not just that, they seemed to have done a little more than that!

<Mr. Liam, these insects are becoming stronger at an alarming pace! We are currently located in territory 4, and we have managed to take down two hive hills, one in Saudi Arabia and one in Iran. > <But we were two days late in dealing with the hive hill in Iran, and this cost our guild a huge loss. We have lost several members of our guild, and many of our key members are injured. > <Though this is not much, I hope this warning reaches you in time before Crimson Abyss suffers a similar loss.

This is not much, but I hope this information can prove to be valuable and at least compensate a little for the generosity you have shown to the rest of us. > Liam read through the entire message, and he was genuinely touched. He had always had a good impression of Abraki, even back in the game, and it looked like he was not wrong in this judgment.

The only issue was… this was all a bit too late!

He quickly sent a return message to the Assassin's Alliance guild leader and shared with them a few more details about the barrier and the swarm's behavior. He also asked him to share this information with the rest of the guilds in the group chat.

This might not lead to anything, as Liam doubted if anyone else were strong enough to face these insects at this point and time in the apocalypse, but at least he would be able to get more coordinates from the conversation.

After sending that message, he looked over at the next message, which gave him another surprise. This message was from none other than the Crimson Abyss 2 guild, a branch of their guild that was located in North America.

Unlike Alex, Mia, and Rey, most people were not able to easily convince their friends and families to uproot their lives and move to an Asian country all of a sudden. So instead, they had to form a temporary guild group in the USA.

"Not bad." Liam nodded in approval looking at the messages from the guild. He honestly did not have any expectations from them, but the several core members of the guild had pulled through and withstood the jarring initial days of the apocalypse to somehow still remain standing.

More importantly, these guys also had coordinates for him for a couple of hive hills. In total, he now had the location of seven new hive hills! It was time to get busy again!

Liam signaled the little fox, and the two of them rushed into the teleportation room. They once again started their big grind.

This time, their trips were much shorter as Luna did not have to fly around everywhere in search of the hive hill. They arrived directly at the coordinates that they had.

The area was also cleared in advance as even the most idiotic people knew better than to go near the swarm of isons willingly.

Of course, some of the areas were cleared by the isons themselves as they had slaughtered everything in sight and sucked dry their dead bodies.

The piles of rotting, unrecognizable rotting flesh left here, and there was a gory sight to see.

Liam sighed at this development and hurried his pace. If he was not fast enough, then soon the entire world was going to become a wasteland of flesh heaps.

He dashed toward the hive hill in front of him and activated the familiar skill again, instantly sending an earth-shattering punch at the tall golden structure.

While Liam was busy dealing with the few hive hills, thanks to the Assassin's Alliance, the rest of the world was slowly starting to pay attention to the isons.

Things would have proceeded faster if Crimson Abyss 2 guild had also chimed in, but Liam had a feeling that this would only be counterproductive in this atmosphere where every Tom, Dick, and Harry was bashing their guild. So he asked them to stay silent for now.

After all, his main target in getting this conversation going was not the common neighborhood guilds. The time at which these could have taken action and made a difference was already over.

Now only the extremely powerful guilds could afford to act.

And if anyone besides him could make a significant contribution to preventing the complete destruction of the world, it would be none other than his longtime friend, the Oracle.

He wanted to bring this snake out of the shadows!
