The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak-Novel

Chapter 685: War in Subterranean World: Explosion

Vandal glared at this unknown person. He silently prepared himself for battle since he didn't know the purpose of the other side.

"Oh? A Chief Captain. You could capture me if you're at your peak. Unfortunately, you don't have enough strength in your current condition." The unknown man said. His voice feels like several people were talking at the same time.

"You...! A Six Shackles?!" Vandal was shocked when he realized the power level of this unknown man. He readied himself as his remaining mana flowed through his body.

"Goodbye, I've taken the Spatial Gem." The unknown man raised his hand and pointed his finger at him. "People called me Grim. Don't bother me, instead look carefully at your surrounding. They are here."

With that, a magic circle formed on the unknown man's feet. The magic circle emitted a bright light and it swallowed him. In the next few seconds, the light disappeared along with the man who named himself Grim. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

"What was that?!"

Vandal was confused. Although he was worried, he was glad that he didn't fight that man. He knew that he wouldn't be able to defeat Grim. In his current condition, his battle power should be at Three Shackles Realm.

"But the Spatial Gem is gone... I need information regarding the Spatial Gem. That Grim probably knows its worth."

Aside from that, he was worried about Grim's words too. Surrounding? They were here? He was confused but he had a bad feeling about it.

"Right now, I should leave this land."

He muttered. There were only ten minutes left before this world collapses. Some parts of the ceiling already crashed on the three nations. Several hundred-meter boulders were falling every second like a meteorite crashing on the ground and shaking the entire earth.

Soon, he arrived on the surface of Aranhgrad. He glanced around and found that most of the warriors had evacuated. Only a few people were left in the subterranean world.

He approached Avron and said, "Someone stole the Spatial Gem."

"Huh?!" Avron widened his eyes. He was too shocked that it caused him to move his body and cough a large amount of blood. "T-The... Spatial Gem is gone...?! No?"

"Is it that important?" Vandal asked. He wanted to know information about it so that he could know if he had to chase after that Grim or not even if he was injured.

"Yeah, but... I should be the only one." Avron turned his head and looked at the ceiling. He saw that the Project Sicily was still there. The energy inside that object was the one he used to defeat the Terror Gale Hippogriff. It was important too but the Project Sicily wasn't his objective.

It also contained enormous power but it's fundamentally different from Spatial Gem. Even he didn't know things about it. He just forged that object according to the recipe that he received. Since they successfully forged it, those people should've...

"No, they are here!"

Avron widened his eyes. He turned his head and saw a figure clad in a dark purple aura standing behind Vandal.

"Behind you!!"

His aura erupted out of his body like a raging tide. His figure disappeared on the spot.

[Fourth Form: Dimensional Steps]!

He reappeared in front of Vandal and kicked him in the stomach. Then, he swung his hand at the figure clad in a dark purple aura.

Bang!!

Vandal was thrown out of the Aranhgrad and crashed on the ground. He was caught off guard as he was thinking deeply about the words of Grim.

The sudden commotion caused the remaining warriors to turn their heads.

"Chief Captain!!"

They hurriedly approached Vandal and helped him stand up. Less than fifty warriors were present and some of the members of the Red Matter Association.

"Avron, you!?" Vandal shouted.

Avron's hand was blocked by a dark purple tentacle. Then, he swung his other hand diagonally but the other person expected it.

Clang!

Dark chains flew out of the robe of the person and pierced Avron's chest.

Ugh!

Avron spat a mouthful of blood before he shouted, "GO!! DON'T COME HERE! VANDAL!!"

His words were naturally heard by everyone since he poured his energy into his voice. He grabbed the dark chains on his chest as he raised his other hand.

[Archetype: Spatial Domination]!!

[Fifth Form: Veil of Prostor]!!

[Sixth Form: Boundary of the Empty Land]!!

The space around was locked and it would prevent Vandal and the others from approaching. It was also folded into several layers securing that no one would help him.

At this moment, a roar reverberated throughout the entire subterranean world. It was the Terror Gale Hippogriiff.

ROAR!!!

It had come back. It recovered some of its strength and judging from its aura, no one among them could stop it. As expected of a fifth stage monster. Even after taking a direct hit from the Project Sicily, it could still stand after resting for a short amount of time.

"You leave me no choice!!" Avron said as he raised his hand and swept it in the air.

[Eight Form: Oblivion Down]!!

The folded space on the ceiling trembled before it disappeared. Without the folded space, the ceiling directly fell toward the ground. It spread out as several huge boulders plunge carrying great momentum.

With this, Vandal didn't have a choice but to retreat. He took the warriors with him and went through the passage.

He realized one thing. Avron had gone easy on him. He held back fighting him with all of his strength. But why? So he still has that in him...

Avron looked at the figure clad in a dark purple aura. He took a deep breath and pulled out the chains on his chest.

Clang!

Then, he pulled the figure and swung his hand. The space around him tightened and folded around his hand.

Clang!

Several chains came out of the person's robe. The numbers were three times higher than before. And all of them were clad in a dark purple aura.

"I expected. You came to kill me."

Avron said as his right hand was wrapped in chains. He tried to break it but he found that it was tougher than he imagined. He raised his feet and launched a powerful kick.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Several chains pierced his body once again. His defenses were completely ignored by these chains.

Cough!

Blood splattered everywhere.

"I know that you came here for Project Sicily but... I bonded with it using the Aranhgrad... So you can't easily get it."

He said with great effort as his blood dripped to the ground creating a small pool of blood.

This guy was a Messenger of Gluttony. He came to him a few weeks ago and he initiated the aggressive action of the Red Matter Association. The Messenger asked gave him various rare ingredients and asked him to forge the so-called Project Sicily. He also gave him the recipe for this object.

Avron had no choice but to comply. He knew that if he somehow reject the proposal, the Red Matter Association would suffer a crushing defeat at the hands of this guy. The Messenger gave him a time to forge and if he hasn't completed it at that time, then he would suffer the consequences.

That's why he started to move the entire Red Matter Association and naturally, this action couldn't be hidden from the eyes of the Athen's Champion. This led to the current war between the two organizations.

So he sped up his other plans... The awakening of Aranhgrad and the creation of Spatial Gem. He was forced to take action even if he didn't want to.

The Deadly Sins was a notorious organization in Imperium. There were no people in this world that didn't know the name of the Bringers of Calamity.

Cough!

Avron felt his body getting numb. He tightly gripped the chains on his chest and gathered the last bit of his mana.

"Let's all die together!"

When he closed his palm, Project Sicily emitted a bright light that illuminated the entire Subterranean World.

The Messenger looked up and said, "It seems that this one is a failed project."

"Garararara! You're trying to use me! Then, die with me!" Avron laughed as the Project Sicily exploded.

Violent energy whips flew in energy direction. Then, a semi-transparent white sphere expanded within the object and pushed everything away. No, it disintegrated everything that touches it.

The violent reaction of the energy caused the fall of the Subterranean World faster. The white sphere continued to expand as it produced various elements. Fire, winds, lightning, water, and earth spread out, causing destruction in the whole region.

The Terror Gale Hippogriff stopped moving as it stared at the energy reactions. In the next moment, the energy waves swallowed its entire body along with the three nations.

Then, Avron and the Messenger were caught up in the explosion. The Aranhgrad was demolished in just a few seconds.

"Vandal... Layla... I've failed once again..."

A loud bang echoed as the Subterranean World was swallowed by that bright light. It pulverized everything within that place.
