Chapter 45 Doom Of The Plague

Liam's Devil Eyes Soultrait was fully triggered even if it was not necessary for his Black Tarthear needles to hit their designated target.

The Plagued Monsters pursued the closest source of life, resulting in their focus switching over to Liam. That was everything he needed to barge into the horde of Plagued Monsters like the madman he was as he continued to throw the Black Tarthear needles all around him.

His Arcane Power was rapidly consumed but Liam didn't even think about slowing down. On the contrary, he made sure that the ordinary Plagued Monsters would stop moving after being hit by the activated Black Tarthear needles before accelerating his movements.

He evaded the slow attacks of the Ordinary Plagued Monsters and witnessed their demise seconds after being hit by the needles he released rapidly.

The Berserk Plague increased the blood pressure and adrenaline that was released within the body of the Plagued Monsters by several times. That was also why Plagued Monsters were a little stronger than they had been before since the increased blood pressure and adrenaline output resulted in their Arcane Power going berserk.

The fact that the Plagued Monster's Arcane Power went berserk was also the reason behind the Berserk Plague's name. Berserk Arcane Power also amplified the effect of the poison infused within the metal used to manufacture the Black Tarthear needles. It was only obvious if one gave it some careful consideration but the effect of the Black Tarthear needles increased the more Arcane Power was inserted into the needles.

By inserting as little Arcane Power as possible into the needles, Liam barely triggered their effects. However, that was more than enough to create a massive domino effect the moment the Berserk Arcane Power of the Plagued Monsters came in touch with the Black Tarthear Needles.

The effect was horrifying and the final result was extremely destructive for the body of the Plagued Monsters as they were destined to end up dead, lying on the ground, the moment they would be hit by a single triggered Black Tarthear Needle.

With every throw Liam ended up shooting a dozen Black Tarthear needles at his opponents, ending the misery of a dozen Plagued Monsters. That way, it didn't even take him two minutes before his Arcane Power was completely consumed and his remaining Black Tarthear needles were completely used up.

The result was devastating. Close to 500 corpses littered the ground while Liam had yet to be hit even once. As for the situation in front of the gymnasium, the native kids who had followed him before were blankly staring at the chaos caused by Liam. They had witnessed his fight, how he charged straight into the horde of 5000 Plagued Monsters, that he had attracted the attention of the horde and that countless Plagued Monsters had lost their lives at the hands of Liam.

It was easy to tell that Liam used his needles to kill the opponents but none of the native kids could fathom how Liam moved so nimbly, and managed to evade every single of the incoming attacks while simultaneously continuing to attack relentlessly without showing a sign of growing tired.

Liam was sweating buckets but that was hard to notice in the heavy downpour. The heavy rain was used to his advantage, preventing the Plagued Monsters a bit further away to sense anyone but Liam. Even sensing Liam from several hundred meters was growing more and more difficult, let alone reaching him.

He was surrounded by countless Plagued Monsters and all of them were trying to lunge at him to rip him into pieces. However, Liam was moving the mountain of corpses around him to jump over the Plagued Monsters and enter the deeper parts of the Plagued Monster horde.

There was no need to be scared because everything was going according to his plan. Though suicidal, his plan was foolproof and would provide him the additional reward of the Event Mission, the best possible customized gift provided that his contribution would be perfect!

'If you guys have any shame, don't replicate my tactic!' Liam shouted in his mind just before he removed the Casket of Trickery from his belt.

Afterward, a small box filled with 500 Black Tarthear Needles materialized in his other hand. In the blink of an eye, the Casket of Trickery was filled once again. Liam reattached it to his belt behind his back before two vials filled with azure potions materialized in his hand. He moved quickly, unscrewed the lid of the vials, and downed the content with a single gulp.

After he was done, Liam was ready to rumble once again.

A while later, a large part of his field of vision was flooded with notifications which Liam dispersed in an instant.

While Liam continued to fight with his life on the line, the others didn't want to stay idle either. Their bodies, which were frozen like stone statues at the sight of Liam's suicidal actions, began to move once again.

Felix and many other natives had left the gymnasium to take a look and see what exactly the Event Mission wanted from them. However, at the sight of the Plagued Monster horde, their previous motivation evaporated into thin air.

They stared at Liam's suicidal way of fighting and swallowed their saliva while their eyes widened at the same time. It was hard to acknowledge but Liam was definitely stronger than them.

If he desired, he could have killed all of them rather than giving a helping hand and charging straight at the horde of Plagued Monsters, killing them like a desperate and angry wild beast.

"I will go and help!"
