Chapter 874 Big One

Liam silently gazed at the corpse in front of him, which had already started desiccating.

The strong, sturdy figure that was previously towering over was now nowhere to be seen. The muscles had disappeared as if they never existed and even the bones were reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Liam couldn't help but wonder if this change was because the man was dead or because he had used an ability that was far beyond his means. There had to be a side-effect for possessing something that clearly did not belong to the vampire.

"I will find it out soon enough." Liam's chest rose and fell lightly as he clutched the soul of the guy tightly. His body might have completely gone, but he still had a soul which was his to claim.

He immediately forged the soul and summoned the vampire in front of him.

"My name is big one." The minion introduced himself.

"Huh? Big one?" Liam was surprised. "You don't have a name? Any other name?"

The soul minion shook his head. Unlike Jonathan, he also did not exhibit any specific attitude and was very quick to accept his new reality. It was almost as if he had lost all sense of his individuality even before dying.

More importantly, this guy knew how to use the power that was bestowed upon him. While Jonathan fumbled around, this vampire put up an actual fight against him and last for a few seconds.

In fact, the fight was far more difficult than it should have been. Even with Liam being prepared beforehand, he was still taken aback by the unexpected skills that the vampire exhibited.

These were not just any ordinary skills.

They were powerful skills that granted insane buffs. What the hell was happening? How were these people, who were simply mere humans at the beginning of the apocalypse, in possession of such terrifying abilities?

Liam had a lot of questions for the 'big one', but the next second, the guy unexpectedly shook his head. "I don't remember anything, master." The same reply chimed in again.

"Fuck this shit." Liam sighed in frustration and banged the vestige of the wall behind him with his fist, making that small thing as well crash and crumble completely.

The entire half of the building they were standing on was ruined because of the fight. The whole thing was shaky, as if it was ready to give out completely.

"Come. Let's go."  Liam dismissed the soul minion and started walking out of the ruins. He now had two of these so-called 'vampire lords' in his possession, but he was no closer to finding out just what the hell was happening.

Were there more of them? How was he going to find these guys, who were hiding themselves quite well? The only option seemed to be the brute search that he was already doing.

However, the drawback to this method was that these vampires were becoming more and more powerful with each passing day. The main issue was not their individual statistics so much as their growing familiarity with their extraordinary powers and abilities.

As he silently contemplated these things and walked away from the area, a few footsteps sounded in front of him.

"More vampires?" Liam frowned. He was about to summon his soul army again to take care of the grunts, but unexpectedly, the new arrivals were not vampires. They were just humans.

To Liam's surprise, they were also wearing official military uniforms and were carrying big firearms that looked like something only an army or police officer would possess.

They also had numerous scars on their faces and arms, and they had hardened features as if they had witnessed a lot in the past few days.

"Hmmm… so everyone did not get completely wiped out in this area. Good for them." Liam continued walking without stopping to talk to them. At this stage, he did not plan to intervene with too many groups.

It was an unnecessary hassle, and if there were too many new faces, then the guild might get out of control. They needed some time to stabilise with the current numbers.

However, the other party seemed like they did not intend to let him go just like that.

"Hey! Stop!" Someone called after him.

Liam turned to see one of the military guys walk up to him. "What is the meaning of this? You are not going to acknowledge us?"

"I am busy at the moment."

The man grimaced and stepped forward to have a stern word with Liam when another person walked forward and placed a hand on his shoulder. "That's enough, deputy general."

"May I please know your name, Mr…?" He asked Liam more politely.

"Liam Chang." Liam curtly replied.

"Could you tell us what happened here?"

"Hmmm…" Liam decided to spend a couple of minutes debriefing these people. He might be ruthless, but even he wasn't cruel enough not to warn these men about the vampires in the area and their strength.

Although he was planning to clear out everything in this zone first, it was still better to inform them about this danger.

"This place is currently not very safe. There are some human beings here who are targeting other people and committing murders. They call themselves vampires and drink human blood." He started explaining.

He expected the other party to become shocked and was prepared to calm them down a bit. Just as he expected, they too became shocked. However, when the man opened his mouth again, it became clear that it was for a completely different reason.

"How can you have this information? This is classified! You are committing treason just by knowing these details!" The man's face quickly changed. The others also had grave expressions.

Liam's eyes twitched as he could see that they were really not joking. Moreover, this response was from the person in charge. He could already tell that this was going to become very troublesome very fast.
