The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 314 - Collapse of the Ladros City: Finishing all the officers on the floating land

The rocks fell causing a loud sound. It made the ground trembled a little bit.

The headless body of the officer too fell on the ground. It sprayed blood, dyeing the ground with crimson color.

The stench of the blood filled the whole area.

*Ding!*

[You’ve received a random reward card and a blank skill card for defeating an opponent equipped with blessings!]

Hmm...?

Souta raided his eyebrows when he saw the system prompt.

This guy had a blessing?

Just how many people that have the power of blessings they brought in this mission?

He knew that Bargan was the strongest Hero-rank but how the hell he could keep up with a group of seven-circle officers and two of them had the power of blessings. No, he wasn’t sure if these two were the only people who had blessings. There’s a possibility that all of them had blessings.

He just one thing. And that’s they couldn’t use their blessings in their current condition. They must’ve exhausted its power while fighting Bargan.

Then, moved to the rewards... The blank skill card. He could use it to any character and randomly copy one of their skills. But learning the skill that he copied in the card cost him skill points.

It was a good card. He would use it to the Underground King and test his luck if he could copy a powerful skill.

Souta lifted his head and looked at the battle of Randolf and the three seven-circle officers. Randolf was really a strong person.

Cough!

He suddenly coughed as blood poured out of his mouth.

’Souta! You should stop using the souls! Your body isn’t strong enough to handle thousands of mad souls at the same time!’ Saya said to him.

"I’m fine. Just a little bit more and I will be able to finish all of them." Souta replied to her as he wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth.

He then released his aura so that the people who were fighting would notice him here.

Ohm!

Randolf smirked as he knew what Souta was trying to do. Souta’s presence could give pressure to the three guys that he was fighting. Knowing that a person who knew soul arts was watching their movements waiting for them to lower their guards, the seven-circle officers wouldn’t be able to focus their attention on Randolf.

They would have to divide it as they were wary at Souta who already killed Yuvn and the other two of their comrades. If they ignore Souta then who knows when might he attack them.

"I’ll use it..."

Souta muttered as he raised his hand and the gigantic black ball moved above him.

[Dark Dominance]!

Dozens of beams shoot towards the seven-circle officers.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The officers stopped attacking Randolf as they flew around trying to avoid the beams from the gigantic black.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Several explosions occurred and the ground trembled heavily as if the gigantic black was trying to destroy the whole floating land. No, it could literally destroy this floating land.

Souta was just avoiding shooting a destructive beam using the [Dark Dominance] because if this floating land got destroyed he will fell on that monster lord on the surface.

He had to avoid confrontation against the monster lord.

The black ball continued to shoot beams towards the three seven-circle officers while Randolf was chasing after them.

The officers were trying to avoid getting hit by black beams. Souta imbued soul power within this spell so it was very lethal to living creatures. Of course, it would do less damage to creatures that didn’t have souls in their body like homunculus and golem.

That’s why Randolf wasn’t scared of Souta’s soul arts.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

After a few moments, Randolf managed to grab one of them.

"Ehe~"

He laughed as he gripped the shoulders of the officer and smashed his knee on the stomach of his opponent.

Bang!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He smashed his knee dozens of times before took something behind him. A fist-sized black ball landed on the same spot where he smashed his knee.

"Argh!"

The officer was thrown away as he spat a large amount of blood.

"Bye-bye!"

Randolf waved his hand with a smile before he turned around and chased after the other officers.

The officer was confused. He wasn’t dead but that guy treated him as one. Don’t tell me... The soul arts user. But he was far away so he wouldn’t be able to get here easily.

Suddenly... Souta vanished from his position.

Swoosh!

He found that Souta was already in front of him pointing the sharp sword at his neck.

F.u.c.k!! How did he get here?

Putchi!

The vajra sword pierced the neck of the officer.

"Argh!"

The officer’s face contorted as he couldn’t believe what happened to him. He couldn’t accept it. His vision was getting blurred and his voice wasn’t coming out of his mouth.

He heard a female voice in his head.

’Ufufu, let me fill it to you before you die. It’s the [Shadow Ball]. You thought that the black ball that the man before shoot towards you was an attack spell. You’re wrong with that. That black ball is our spell and it’s not an attack spell. It’s a teleportation spell. Did you get it?’

Saya’s voice sounded like she was having fun.

Souta twisted his sword and sliced the neck of the officer.

*Ding!*

[You’ve received 489,000 exp for defeating a Seven-circle officer!]

"Four down... Only two left."

He muttered as he waved his sword and the blood on it splattered on the ground.

Souta took a deep breath as he focused his attention on the remaining two seven-circle officers. He didn’t need to use a trick as there were only two of them left.

Randolf too wouldn’t have a problem with this. He could fight four of them at the same time so fighting one wouldn’t give him that much pressure.

"Let’s make it quick!" Souta smiled as he launched himself towards the battle.

Swoosh!

His figure crashed one of the two officers left.

Bang!

Randolf smiled as he tilted his head and a fist grazed his cheeks.

"You could just leave it to me. Don’t worry I’ll let you kill them so don’t forget our deal."

He said as he grabbed the wrist of his opponent and elbowed the officer’s face. Then, lightning crackled around his body.

"Argh!"

The officer groaned in pain as lightning continued to land on his body through Randolf.

"Souta, here you go!"

Randolf chuckled and a white sphere of light coated his fist. He then launched a barrage of punches at the officer.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The officer was thrown towards Souta and Souta towards the officer.

His sword pierced the neck of the officer. Souta then slashed his sword downwards while using [Crimson Moon].

*Ding!*

[You’ve received 431,000 exp for defeating a Seven-circle officer!]

Souta and Randolf turned their head and looked at the remaining seven-circle officer.

There’s one more left.

The officer couldn’t believe what happened to their group. They fought Bargan and somehow survived but they didn’t expect that these two weak people were the ones who will kill them.

It’s better that they died while fighting Bargan.

"Ehe~"

"You wouldn’t be able to escape!"

Souta and Randolf pounced at the seven-circle officer with a wide grin on their face.

*Ding!*

[You’ve received 547,777 exp for defeating a Seven-circle officer!]

*Ding!*

[You’ve received a random reward card and a blank skill card for defeating an opponent equipped with blessings!]

The seven-circle officer couldn’t do anything as the two killed him and took his soul.

Huff...

Souta exhaled as he deactivated the [Soul Blood Mode]. This skill consumed most of the souls that collected. It provided him a huge boost in his strength but its cost was high.

A hundred souls per minute were its cost.

"Don’t forget our deal." Randolf suddenly said from the side.

Souta glanced at him and said, "Do you want to fight now?" He looked straight at Randolf’s eyes.

After a few moments, Randolf shook his head and replied, "No, I don’t want to fight you at your current condition. There’s no point in doing that. Also, it’s time for me to leave this place."

"Okay, thanks for helping me," Souta said as he sat down and looked at the Underground King below. He was tired and didn’t have the strength to continue fighting.

"You know soul arts, huh? I wonder if you could place a soul in a homunculus’ body. Maybe that way, we would be able to live without hiding." Randolf said in a low voice.

"I’m not well verse at souls so I couldn’t do it. Also, it’s not my skill." Souta replied to him.

"Okay, I’ll leave now. I certainly enjoy the normal life of a student here. I won’t forget it in my entire life. The life of a normal student... I want to give it to my siblings." Randolf said as he turned around and started to walk away.

Souta glanced at his back and smirked. "We’ll meet again in the future."

"Hahaha, I hope so," Randolf replied without looking back. He then disappeared.

After Randolf left, Souta’s expression turned serious.

Yeah, they’ll meet in the future. There’s no doubt about it. They will not be able to avoid it as both of them will participate in the war.

At that time, Randolf will become the Dark Emperor ’Zargon’. One of the four crystal emperors that have the same level as the emperor of the Red Crystal Empire.

Later on in the future, these two people will become famous throughout the countless worlds in the universe. Their legends will be passed down from generation to generation. Bards will sing their deeds and accomplishments in the war.

The Dark Emperor and the Frost Abyssal Lord.
