Before Alex messaged him, Rey had already messaged Liam and told him about everything. He had asked him the same question to see if there were any worthwhile big investments in the game.
But Liam immediately knew that something was wrong.
Was it around this time Mia had disappeared?
He couldn't remember this part clearly because at this time so much chaos and commotion had ensued. The exact timeline was not too clear to him.
So many celebrities disappeared around this time and an entirely new set of celebrities cropped up, the rankers of 'Evolution Online'. Though Mia belonged to both of these categories, she also for some reason had disappeared.
Why? What happened to her and who did this to her were all a mystery.
However, Liam was sure about one thing. This time, history was not going to repeat itself, at least in her case. He was not going to let his investments go to waste.
Besides, it was also time to implement the next phase before the world started to become more chaotic.
Pretty soon all countries would basically shut down and then travel would not be easily possible. There would be so many more complications.
Instead of dealing with all of that, it was better to just start moving things now. As for how he was planning to explain these things to others…
"When I logged into this game for the very first time… I got a premonition, like a dream of the future…" Liam messaged Rey. He hoped that this explanation would stick.
Knowing places where bosses would pop out, dungeon strategies, and battle strategies, these things were completely different from knowing things that were going to actually go down in the real world.
Unless he comes clean about this return back in time, there was no reason for anyone to believe him, uproot their whole life and move in with him.
So Liam decided to go with something like this. Now all that was left was for Rey to believe him.
"I will explain these things to you guys in person but for now, I think that your life is in danger. So the three of you should immediately come to my place." He added.
He then looked at the system interface with a frown on his face. Would this work?
As if answering his question, the very next second, Rey's response popped up. "Bro! This is awesome! We will be right there!"
Liam bitterly smiled. Of course, this guy was going to believe him. Why did he even doubt this in the first place?
He also saw that Rey had already logged out. "So fast? He didn't ask me a single question?" Liam now was truly speechless. "Since when did I become so trustworthy?"
He slapped his face with his palm and let out a sigh when a new message popped out, this time from the person completely opposite to Rey, the one that questions everything he does. Alex had messaged him.
"These two siblings are going to drive me crazy!" Liam replied to her with a short message and let Rey explain everything else.
It looked like he had indeed sent some messages to Alex because she as well logged out shortly afterward.
Now the only thing that remained was to wait and see what was going to happen. Would these guys really trust him and make such a huge move?
Just in case anyone decided to log back in and contact him again, Liam hung around the same spot for a little longer.
He also used this time to catch up with Berat. They needed to up their gold game soon. "Maybe I should sell some of the rare herbs from the stone tablet garden." Liam pondered.
However, before this came the strange auction house he had visited. He needed more mana cores to participate in that. There were now only 2 days left for the big auction.
"Well even if I don't have enough cores, I can always farm for more and attend the next one. Maybe I can exchange for the rare herbs with mana cores there? Or even auction some rare herbs?"
Just as Liam was trying to figure out the best course of action, Alex once again logged in and messaged him, "Where should we come? What is your address?"
Hmmm… Liam remained silent for a second as he truly did not expect this trio to quickly agree just like this. "Take a flight to the Hangzhou airport." He gave them all the required details and his phone number.
This officially marked it. It looks like the next phase was now starting to take shape quickly.
He only planned to do this one week later but since Mia and Alex were already in hot water, there was no harm in kicking off things a bit early.
Liam gave some more directions and chatted with the woman for a little longer. He then wrapped things up and stood up to stretch his arms and legs.
All of this right now was still a mere discussion. Whether they were going to actually do it or not was yet to be seen.
Liam twisted his body and cracked his neck. He had actually slept for 12 hours straight. Sleeping inside the game was less efficient than getting a real good night's rest, so he had to sleep longer.
But on the plus side…
Liam grinned as he lifted his gaze to look up at the marvelous scene unfolding in front of him.
On one side of the valley, all of his soul undeads were beating up a small mob of green snakes. Chickens and rabbits were pecking at them wildly, the three wolves were ripping everything apart.
On the other side, the dryads, the imps, and the bears were wreaking havoc. It was really a sight to see.
These guys had started hunting when he went to sleep and now they were still busily grinding. From the looks of it, they seemed to be doing this for the last 12 hours without break?
What incredible stamina! Only an undead can grind like this continuously!
Liam's eyes then fell on the lone straggler, his human soul undead. Only this fellow seemed to be half-heartedly walking around with a big attitude all over his ghostly face.
He absent-mindedly swung his ax, hitting the grass around more than the actual target. When the cat was away, the rats partied!
He was the perfect example of a government employee chilling at the desk, with work piled all around and yet busily tapping away the phone.
Liam's lips twitched as he stared at the lazy bones. "This guy needs some disciplining."
And looking at this, he was also reminded about the other guys that needed to be taught another good lesson, Gorak's previous comrades, the newly formed combined guild, the so-called 'Coalition of Righteous.'
