The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 633: Terror in Fone Kingdom: Helping another squad

'Damn! It's not easy to approach Grain Leader!' Souta cursed silently. He couldn't approach Grain Leader Carmel because of the intensity of the battle.

Carmel was fighting four Three Shackles Realm experts alone with a huge handicap. He was injured and his strength had decreased because of the trap laid out by the Red Matter Association.

Nevertheless, he still had the upper hand in the battle.

'So the [Titanous Victor Golem] is the reason why these people haven't lost their confidence.'

Souta understood why the Red Matter was like that.

He didn't want to get caught up in the battle between Grain Leader Carmel and the experts of Red Matter.

"I guess I should help another squad first. I only had ten minutes before the activation of [Titanous Victor Golem."

He flew towards the nearest battle in this area.

...

Shockwaves after shockwaves burst out destroying hundreds of buildings.

Two figures were colliding in the sky. One was wearing a black robe while the other one was wearing bronze-colored armor. Below them, several people were fighting fiercely.

"To think that Red Matter Association is prepared in this battle."

The man wearing bronze-colored armor muttered in a low voice. He was the captain of Blue Waves Squad, a person at Two Shackles Realm.

"Athen's Champion. Don't think that you can win this battle just because you had the upper hand. Nothing is certain when it comes to an all-out war."

The person from Red Matter said before he charged toward the Captain of White Waves Squad.

Boom!!

The members of the White Waves Squad glanced at the sky. Their expression was awful. They felt that they had to end this quickly before they suffered more casualties.

"Attack them! Focus your attention on the enemy before you! Don't worry about our captain!" An elf shouted. He was the Vice-Captain of the White Waves Squad.

"Vice-Captain is right! We should finish our opponents first!" One person said.

The White Waves directly clashed with the members of Red Matter. Besides the captain, the White Waves had four One Shackle Realm and three S-rank experts.

Their lineup was stronger than Blue Cross Squad. They were a First Class Blue Squadron. They were two ranks higher than Leilus' squad.

Actually, the White Waves brought five Shackle Realm experts to this mission. It's just that one of them had died at the hands of Red Matter. Losing a One Shackle Realm greatly diminished the battle power of their squad.

While everyone was fighting, countless webs spread out and a thick best feram shook the entire area.

"W-What?!"

Both White Waves and Red Matter were surprised at the development. They didn't know where these webs came from but when they felt the best feram, their expression turned grim.

"Monster?! Is there a monster in this city?!"

The webs turned bloody red before it slashed out.

Boom!!

The members of the Red Matter were pushed back. They were caught off guard so they suffered a massive blow to their bodies. Some of them were injured heavily, luckily they managed to escape on time.

"What happened?! It didn't attack us!" One of the members of the White Waves was bewildered.

"Have you forgotten that there's a monster in our Tenth Grain War? He recently reached the fourth stage so he's on par with us." The Vice-Captain said.

"Oh, that guy that caused a commotion a few weeks ago." One of them remembered the commotion in the training ground.

"Let's use this chance. Attack the enemies!" The Vice-Captain ordered when he saw that the enemies were still confused.

He quickly charged at them gathering a huge amount of mana in his saber.

"AHHHH!!!"

The other members of the White Waves followed their Vice-Captain.

Boom!

Dozens of meters away, Souta was observing the battle with narrowed eyes. The White Waves gained a huge advantage with his help so they would be able to finish their opponents faster.

The only problem...

Souta turned his head. Inside the range of his [Crimson Perception], four people entered and were approaching this direction.

'An enemy? I'm not sure as I can only sense their blood.'

His eyes quickly adjusted and his gaze zoomed in. What he saw made his brows knitted together. The four people weren't from Athen's Champion. Instead, they were from Red Matter.

Two of them were One Shackle Realm while the remaining two were peak S-rank.

Tsk!

Souta clicked his tongue. He activated several combat arts and spells. What Saya called his Second Mode. He just used his [Elemental Drive] so he couldn't use it carelessly this time.

"Before they arrived I had to finish this."

He brandished the vajra sword on his waist. To finish this battle quickly, Souta had to use one of his aces.

[Hunting State]!

[Serial Killing Steps]!

A field expanded with Souta as the center. The [Hunting State] was a skill where he could choose five targets to decrease their movement speed by 20%. Using this skill, he chose Shackled Realm experts of the Red Matter including the one that was fighting against the Captain of the White Waves.

As for the [Serial Killing Steps], this skill allows him to increase his speed by 20% and increase the effect of his other movement skill by 10%. It also boosted his backstab strike and stealth ability by 20%.

In short, Souta was several times faster before while the speed of his target had slowed down.

It was the equipment skill of [Solid Hunter State Boots].

Swoosh!

Souta appeared beside one of the Shackled Realm experts of Red Matter. He quickly raised his sword as his monster orb and [Nebula Heart] pumped an enormous amount of energy.

[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!!

[Fifth Form: Rage of the Thunder God]!!

The Shackled Realm expert was too late. He only noticed that someone was beside him when the dense best feram fluctuated highly.

He couldn't react at all as his body was swallowed by a powerful lightning blade.

BOOM!!

Violent black lightning crackled as it spread out causing massive destruction in the area.

A figure flew out of the explosion and crashed on the ground leaving a trail of smoke. Follow current s on N(o)vel(F)ire

'He's still alive? He's tougher than the one before.'

Souta said inwardly. Although the enemy was still alive, that person couldn't do anything to him. He was in a state of life and death. He was barely hanging on to his life.

His mastery over Archetype had increased after his evolution so its strength had grown once again. He could literally one-shot weaker Shackled Realm like Eilish using Fifth Form.

Unfortunately, Eilish was stronger than she was back then in the sub-world so she could probably last longer.

"This is the end!"

He pointed his sword at the enemy and a huge amount of energy gathered on the tip.

Ohm!

Black and white energy spun around before it expanded. In the next moment, it shrunk before it burst out sending a powerful beam.

[Bestrou]!

BOOM!!

A powerful explosion occurred as a mushroom of smoke rose to the sky. A huge crater with a diameter of one hundred meters was left on the ground.

'He's dead.'

Souta glanced at the system. He already received experience points from killing that man.

He managed to kill that man in just a few seconds using the element of surprise. So this was the reason why Isabella said that she preferred assassination over head-on battle.

Although he had a powerful attack, he wouldn't be able to do this without the equipment skill of [Solid Hunter State Boots]. It gives him enough speed to quickly arrive behind that man before he notices Souta's presence.

Speed alone wasn't enough. Souta didn't have any stealth combat arts or spells but he could hide his aura inside his body so the increase of 20% in stealth made him less noticeable. The +20% back strike also made his Fifth Form stronger than normal.

The man could even move or dodge because his speed have decreased by 20%. Also, a powerful gravity locked him in his position.

Everything was perfectly executed.

'Damn! I have a talent in assassination.'

Souta rubbed his chin and he noticed someone in his perception. A person appeared behind him in the blink of an eye.

Swoosh!

The person swung a giant axe.

Bang!

He thought that he already caught Souta off guard but he was wrong.

Thick layers of solid blood blocked his strike. The surface had cracks on it but blood continued to flow making the barrier more solid and bigger.

"What the hell?!"

He gritted his teeth. He was about to swing again when members of the White Waves attacked him.

"Argh!! These despicable bastards!!"

He tried to escape but he realized that both of his feet were wrapped in webs.

"Shit!!"

He cursed as he noticed that Souta was already looking at him with cold eyes.

"You wouldn't be able to kill me easily!!"

He roared with burning fury in his eyes.

Souta smiled and answered, "Yes, I know. That's why I have my fellow warriors here."

He knew that he wouldn't be able to sneak attack once again. He just got lucky but that doesn't matter anymore. With less Shackled Realm from the Red Matter's side, the faster they would be able to finish this battle.

A minute hasn't even passed since Souta joined the battle and it already placed the enemy on the losing side.
