Chapter 112: Chaos Pill

As Liam killed one of the Dark Elves out of nowhere, the other four elevs were stunned and lost their focus for a moment.

The Explosion Arrow that Erza had shot earlier arrived right at this moment and exploded in the faces of two Dark Elves, sending both of them flying ten meters away, blood spilling out from their mouths as they fainted.

Now there was just one High Elf and one Dark Elf left who could still fight.

Both of their faces were pale as paper, and their bodies were trembling slightly in fear.

Looking at their companions, who were either dead or couldn’t fight any longer, they also realized that the situation was dangerous and looked at each other.

A look of determination flashed in their eyes, and both of them suddenly took out a black pill and swallowed it.

As soon as they swallowed the pill, their auras became extremely chaotic.

Black smoke started to come out of their bodies, their heights increased by over twenty centimeters, and a black, armor-like layer appeared over them as their eyes turned pitch black.

Evan raised an eyebrow when he saw this, as he could feel the auras of both of them increasing rapidly. In just a few seconds, they had already reached the limit of Rank One and were about to reach Rank Two.

But when Evan looked at Liam and the others, he saw that their expressions were remarkably calm.

"Holy Spears!"

Suddenly, Kevin, who was standing quietly spoke and two white spears shot towards both elves who had just swallowed the black pill.

The spears pierced through the dark layer covering their skin easily and dug deep into their bodies.

"Arghhh!"

Both elves cried out in pain as black blood flowed out from their wounds.

"Phantom Blades!"

Liam appeared behind the screaming elves, and the daggers in his hands turned into afterimages as he slashed at them over ten times in just a second.

Tear! Slash! ——

The flesh of both elves was torn apart under the phantom blades, and black blood splashed everywhere.

"Blaze Shot!"

Just as Liam’s attack ended, Erza shot a dark-crimson arrow towards both elves, who fell to the ground after taking two powerful attacks.

The dark-crimson arrow landed between them, and—

Boom!

A thunderous explosion occurred, and both of the elves were blasted away, their limbs flying separately from their bodies.

Both elves crashed beside the other two elves who had been blasted away earlier by Erza’s Explosion Arrow.

Even before these four elves could do anything else, Liam appeared beside them and, in a swift motion, severed their heads.

Evan watched everything silently and couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air upon seeing their perfect teamwork.

Although Liam and the others were stronger than any Rank One individual he had seen until now, he knew that the reason they were able to finish the fight so quickly was because of their great teamwork.

"Well done, everyone. Let’s check if there is anyone else, and we can go back after that." Alice said with a light smile, extremely satisfied with the performance of her team.

Liam and the others nodded and quickly started to look around the base to see if there was anyone else.

They found some unranked Evolvers of the Chaos Alliance who had luckily survived and were just seriously injured.

It did not take them long to handle them, and in just ten minutes, they finished off everyone.

While they were searching around, Evan didn’t bother them and walked over to the place where Alice had fought against the two Ice Elves.

He came to the place where one of the Ice Elves had used his skill—Ice Bomb.

It was a small crater with a radius of three meters and a depth of one meter. The entire crater was frozen in ice.

But inside the ice, he could see traces of strange black energy. This black energy was very similar to the black aura that had erupted from the two elves who had taken the pills in the end.

’Is this the Chaos Essence that Liam and the others told me about?’ Evan thought as he looked at the black energy inside the ice.

He carefully observed it and noticed that the black energy had actually strengthened the power of the ice to some degree. Whether it was its toughness or coldness, everything was a notch above compared to normal ice because of this black energy.

Evan touched the ice.

At first, he didn’t feel anything strange, but soon, he found that this ice also had a corrosive effect.

Although it wasn’t very obvious, he could feel his skin was getting corroded.

"This black energy is the effect of Chaos Essence. Along with their bodies, this Essence also increases the power of their skills. This is why many people actively try to join the Chaos Alliance, as it can greatly improve their powers."

Evan heard Alice’s voice, and when he turned around, he saw everyone had returned after taking care of the other members of the Chaos Organization.

"Was the pill that the two last elves swallowed also related to Chaos Essence?" Evan asked as he stood up.

"The pill that those two used in the end is called Chaos Pill. It makes the Chaos Essence inside their bodies activate to an extreme, greatly increasing their strength. But once the effect of these pills wears off, not only will you be weakened for a long time, but your body will also sustain permanent damage." Kevin explained to Evan.

"Also, it takes some time for this pill to take effect after taking it. So, as long as you kill the person before the pill fully takes effect, it’s not difficult to handle them."

"I see..." Evan nodded at Kevin’s explanation and didn’t ask anything.

"Let’s go. We should head back now," Alice said. "The reinforcements they talked about might be on their way. If we stay here for too long, things might become dangerous."

Liam and the others nodded, and after taking one last look at the destroyed base, all of them left from there.
