Chapter 383 Disgust
Of course this would happen.
Because why not?
Clearly, he wasn't allowed a break.
PSSSSSSSS!
The giant mushroom suddenly excreted black and red gasses from its head.
Liam closed off all the pores from his body, including his ears, nose and mouth.
His eyes were protected too, a thin eyelid layer allowed him to see through them.
He activated all the mental defenses he could.
The gas enveloped him anyway, but there was no pain.
Just a vague sense of unease that made him nauseous.
Like he wanted to vomit.
All kinds of disgusting images entered Liam's mind.
It made him think he was drowning in a pool of feces, vomit and urine.
Bile rose in his stomach and threatened to escape from his throat.
SHING!
Liam's swords appeared in his four arms.
Dusk Blades on his two lower hands.
Breaker Blade to his left.
Black Blade to his right.
All three of them!
Sword Construct didn't actually hinder Liam's ability to take out all three of his swords whenever he wanted.
It would just be a handicap if it did.
Resisting the putrid, revolting feelings flashing through him, Liam blurred.
SHIIING!
Four separate noises rang out as Liam's Dusk Blades, Black Blade and Breaker Blade started ripping through the mushroom.
Darkness and Hone were used simultaneously, digging into the mushroom's head and corroding it from within.
Viscous slime spurted around him in an attempt to stop his charge, but failed to do so due to how fast Liam was.
Like Liam imagined, the body he altered for himself was the embodiment of war-ready.
It was essentially four times the normal amount of damage he could inflict.
More gas surged around him, like he'd caught on an ethereal fire.
More images.
Disgust.
A knot tightened in his stomach.
Liam felt like worms were crawling through his skin, digging into his eyes and oozing through his nose.
Disgust.
The fungus was doing its absolute best to try and remove the parasite devouring its flesh.
But Liam continued slicing, ripping, butchering and severing through its circular head until it resembled a chewed up piece of meat.
With a quiet shriek, the mushroom tipped over and fell on the ground.
BANG!
Liam landed on the mushroom's head.
The feelings of disgust were gone.
He was normal now.
He could breathe!
Except, being here just felt wrong.
Liam felt watched, and his thoughts were much more paranoid than normal.
Not to mention, his skin tightened due to how bloody cold it was.
Plus, the King's Eye couldn't see too far out, but he could still see.
At the same time, there were more Crimson Mushrooms like the one Liam had just killed.
Though, he'd certainly landed on the biggest one of them all.
'Past the colonies, this is all there is,' Liam thought. 'Abominations for as far as the eye could see.'
Liam's Jade flickered on, and he answered it.
"I'm fine," Liam said before Jax could say anything. "What about you and the rest?" he asked.
"I'm glad," Jax responded with a quiet voice. "Still hiding in the skies. We'll come for you as soon as we touch down on a colony."
"No need," Liam responded tersely. "Just establish the World Gate and I'll meet with you myself."
Silence.
Jax didn't expect such an answer.
His priority was the safety of the Temple of Shadow's heir.
The soon-to-be leader.
Especially at a time like this!
They needed to be a united front!
Liam recognized the silence.
"I'll be fine. I need to study these things anyway. Contact me if you're in trouble."
Reluctantly, Jax agreed.
Then, they both cut off their connection.
By then, the mushroom Abomination Liam was standing on melted into goo.
And the surrounding Abominations took an interest in the scene.
Specifically, Liam himself.
'They're all the equivalent of a peak Rank 3 magical beast,' Liam thought with a slight scoff as his blank gaze spread from one creature to another.
'Weak, then.'
Liam heaved a long sigh, then smiled.
Avoiding a fight was easy. The Abominations didn't have any particular speed-based abilities.
Those that did weren't too powerful, and he could easily deal with them.
But it'd been some time since he'd gotten his hands dirty.
SHING!
Liam didn't waste a second and lurched forward, his blades ravaging through entire hordes of Abominations.
Black blood and grim viscera colored the air, and a trail of it soon formed as Liam continued, ripping, cleaving and slashing.
On the way through, he'd store a couple of them in his ring.
What followed was a brutal massacre that held no meaning other than to satisfy Liam's itch for bloodthirst.
But then again, it wasn't like Abominations were living creatures.
Well, they might have been.
But Liam could care less even if they were.
It made no difference to him.
***
Standing atop a hill of ravaged limbs, heads, skulls and inhuman corpses, a cloaked, hooded figure heaved a long sigh.
Liam had been killing nothing but Abominations for the past week, carving his way downwards to a colony.
There was just no end to them!
Liam wasn't worried about being caught or leaving a trail of bodies behind.
Any time he killed an Abomination, other Abominations would appear and devour their corpses, growing in strength.
One thing Liam found out was that Abominations weren't just monsters.
Some, like the Crimson Mushroom, and Flesh Spires — a self explanatory name — provided homes for the Abominations to live under.
They had symbiotic relations with one another.
Like Liam thought, even in chaos, there was order.
Nevertheless, these weren't the important details.
The most important thing of note was that Liam finally found a colony!
It took a week of searching.
The colony in question consisted of a giant dome that contained curved, fang-like structures inside of it.
They were all more or less the same height.
Each colony was bound to have a dozen or so Zeniths inside them, but Liam couldn't tell where exactly they were.
'What's with these people and gothic themes? Everything is either black or grey…'
Nevertheless, it was time to clean house.
