718 Just one more?

"What the…" Liam gawked at the unbelievable scene in front of him. The chained-up prisoner was also absorbing the souls of the dead corpses?

Weirdly enough she didn't even spare a second glance at the kid who was still shaking and s.h.i.+vering in the corner. All her focus was only on the dragons.

This made Liam think about a frightening possibility. What if the target of the woman were these dragons from the very beginning?

Perhaps if he had come here sooner, he would have received the unique cla.s.s 'Dragon Tamer', and then it would have been him who was fattened up like a sacrificial goat before the woman butchered him just like she did to the kid.

The more he thought about it, the more this seemed extremely plausible. Why else would there be more than one key to this place? The three-headed raven was possibly her minion who simply picked good candidates and sent them her way?

Now everything made sense. The woman's plan all along was maybe to absorb all the souls of these draconian beasts and recover her strength! She could then break out of the prison herself without needing anyone else to open any doors with keys.

When she got out, she was probably planning to also kill the kid which explained why there was no word of him after his initial popularity.

Liam's mind raced as he was finally able to connect all the dots. The woman in front of him was most definitely extremely vicious. She lured beginner players with the promise of a big reward, only to use them and throw them away.

It was impossible for someone like that to not have noticed him. He needed to get the h.e.l.l out of here ASAP! She was probably planning to get rid of both the kid and him the minute she regained her strength.

But what if she did not regain her strength?

Liam looked at the soul fragments moving from the dragon's corpse and in particular, paid attention to the speed at which the soul fragments were being absorbed.

"This is slow." At least from what he could see the prisoner was only able to slowly absorb the millions of small soul fragments. His own speed was definitely faster than this. In fact, she could probably absorb the soul fragments a lot faster if she was closer to the corpse.

"Hmmm…" Liam paused for a moment as he made a quick calculation. There seemed to be only one explanation for this. Despite the key unlocking the doors, both the inner doors and the outer doors, there was definitely some other barrier holding the woman back.

That's why she still seemed to be confined within the prison, chained up and unable to move. So maybe he could absorb one more wyvern's soul to test the waters?

Just to be safe, Liam quickly created a portal to the nether realm once again. He then hurriedly took out a bead and started his work. While the woman was busily absorbing the soul of a dragon, he began sneakily pulling the soul of the wyvern closest to him.

And the moment he did that, the woman's face immediately changed. Unfortunately for him, she c.o.c.ked her head to the side and looked directly at Liam.

Gudang! Liam's heart dropped. Now he had done it. Was this going to be his second death in the game? He was fully prepared to die as he understood that this was a very real possibility but to his surprise, the woman only continued to stare at him.

And he, on the other hand, was still absorbing the wyvern's soul!

Liam's heart raced as he had a feeling that his original a.s.sumption was most probably true. He continued absorbing the wyvern's soul faster and faster. He waited and watched the woman to see if she was going to take any action at all.

But all she did was stare daggers at him while she herself continued silently absorbing the dragon's soul. A very uncomfortable silence prevailed in the room.

Soon Liam had almost finished absorbing the entire wyvern's soul into his black bead. Meanwhile, the woman only managed to absorb one-fourth of the dragon's soul.

Liam looked at the black bead and then at the next wyvern's corpse. He already had three wyverns' souls now, should he maybe stop? Nope. He had come too far to stop with just three. There were still 13 more draconian beast souls right in front of him!

How would the woman react if he took just one more soul?

Liam gritted his teeth as he pulled the remaining soul fragments as fast as he could and daringly moved on to the next one. The woman now let out a low growl but once again, she did nothing. She did not even move a muscle.

A couple more minutes pa.s.sed by when Liam was finished absorbing the next wyvern soul as well. His speed today was much faster than his usual speed.

As he was simply shoving the soul into the bead, while the other person was steadily absorbing it into herself, he was able to take the soul a lot faster.

And now that he had managed to get two wyvern souls right under this woman's nose, he had no plans to stop now.

Much to her dismay, he walked even closer, settling right outside the hall, very careful not to step inside, and started absorbing the remaining wyvern souls also, one after the other.

By the time, the chained-up woman was done with the first dragon corpse and sucked dry its soul, Liam had actually managed to steal six of the wyvern souls!

With the two he already possessed, he now had a total of eight wyvern souls! Only four more were remaining. Well, since he already had eight of the twelve, why not go for the complete set?

At this point, he threw all caution to the wind and daringly hooked onto the next wyvern soul. Right at this moment, a loud angry roar bellowed.

The woman finally finished absorbing the first dragon soul and she growled louder than all the dragons and wyverns put together, her face and eyes maddened with unbridled fury.

"Stop stealing what is mine, you d.a.m.n b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"
