The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak - Chapter 659: War in Subterranean World: To the Other Side

Chapter 659: War in Subterranean World: To the Other Side

Souta opened his eyes as energy glimmered inside his pupils.

Hu~

He exhaled as he placed back the monster orb inside the small back. Forty minutes had passed since he started replenishing his energy so he still had some time left.

He still had something to do. He went to the surface and looked at his surroundings. He gritted his teeth as he gathered the souls around him.

A lot of people died in this place. He needed their souls to become stronger so that he could challenge the upcoming events.

The Aekr Republic had a population of fifty million. The number of souls lingering around the nation was enormous. Their death was unjust and their sounds of grief were everywhere.

“Let me use your souls… I promise that the Red Matter Association will fall today.”

The voices of the souls were creeping into his ears. Their grief and sorrow made him narrow his eyes. His emotion was stirred and he couldn’t do anything about it.

He could see the souls of children and adults floating around. They all had painful expressions on their face.

The number of people that died was hard to imagine. His urges were going out of control as his energy was turning wild.

Souta gritted his teeth as he brandished the vajra sword on his waist and chopped his left hand.

Argh!!

The pain returned him to his senses. He kneeled on the ground as his chest heaved up and down. Sweats were forming all over his body.

He watched as his hand returned to its normal state.

“Fuck! I almost lost control…”

Souta cursed as he stood up and wiped the sweat on his forehead.

…

After gathering tons of souls, Souta went back. He saw that everyone was preparing. It seems that Shirley had finished talking to the President and she learned the location of the other three nations.

It was good. It was within his expectations. The President should know the location of the three nations since they had a data book about them. They had meetings before.

“Warriors, Attention!”

Every warrior stared at Banni’s figure. They clenched their fists as they knew what would come. They were going to find the headquarters of the Red Matter Association.

Banni took a deep breath before he roared, “It’s gonna be an all-out war!!”

The real war will begin when they find the headquarters of the enemies. They were going to fight the real force of Red Matter and things wouldn’t be easy for them. There’s a chance that they would suffer a defeat. Even so, they will use everything that they’ve got.

This time two executives appeared and they managed to defeat both of them. No, Banni alone defeated the two executives.

In the next battle, they were going to fight the ten remaining executives of the Red Matter Association without Banni.

Also, the leader of the Red Matter was the person that they had to worry the most. Without their Chief Captain, there’s no person among them that could rival that man.

“For the glory!! For the honor!! For the people!! We’ll defeat our enemies!!” Banni raised his hand as his voice echoed in the whole area. His eyes were burning with determination.

“OHHHH!!!”

The warriors roared as they raised their weapons above their heads.

“You have to be careful, Souta,” Leilus said.

“Yeah, yeah, I don’t want to hear a news of you dying in a battle.” Drami nodded.

“Oi, dying in battle isn’t that bad. It’s one of the most heroic ways to die.” Marcus said to Drami then he turned to Souta. “Just don’t die this time. If you really have no way out then do it in a way you will not regret.”

“Don’t mind them. Just go all out.” Sekmet said.

“Don’t be like me. I know you’re strong but don’t underestimate your opponents.” Paolo said.

“I know.” Souta smiled as he closed his eyes. These guys weren’t bad at all. “I’m not going to die.”

He turned around and waved his hand. The moment he turned his back on the Blue Cross Squad, his expression turned serious. His urges were getting out of control as bloodlust was brewing inside his heart.

He will destroy the Red Matter Association. He had to do it along with the warriors of the Athen’s Champion.

A small grin slowly appeared on his face.

…

Warriors of the Third Set and Fourth Set left the Aekr Republic. They marched towards the north with heavy feelings. They were silent as no one was in the mood to talk to their fellow warriors. It made the entire atmosphere heavy.

They truly wanted to destroy the Red Matter Association as soon as possible. Just by looking at the current state of Aekr Republic, their hatred had skyrocketed.

The innocent people that died in the battle were countless. Corpses were scattered all over the ground and the stench of blood filled the air. Some of the corpses were grinding to the point that no one could recognize them.

The Aekr Republic became a place of death in just a few hours. It was horrifying as they couldn’t even remove the scene of mountains of dead bodies in their minds. Every time they close their eyes, they always remember those certain bloody scenes.

No matter how many times they experience it, they will never get used to it.

“Halt!!”

Banni said as he raised his hand.

After marching for an hour, the warriors arrived at the boundary of the subterranean world. It was the corner of this land and it was just a layer of solid bedrock.

But according to the President, there was a hollow space beyond this bedrock. Once they passed through a certain passage they would be able to see a larger land.

Shirley stepped forward as her long and soft hair swung on her back. Her body was covered in full plate dark red armor. Although she’s not the strongest person in the Third Set, she was definitely within the top 20. She wouldn’t become an assistant of the Chief Captain if she didn’t possess enough power.

She’s the one who talked to the President so she must have known where the passage to the other side was.

Shirley fiddled with the wall for a few minutes until the ground shook heavily, and the wall cracked open revealing a huge space within.

“It’s done.” She said as she walked back to her position. “According to the President of the Aekr Republic, there are many passages but this one is the nearest to our location so we’ll take this one.”

Banni commanded the warriors and they entered the wide passage. It has a height of twenty five meters and a length of fifty meters.

Souta lifted his head as he scanned the passage with his eyes. After a moment, he followed the other warriors as he didn’t see anything dangerous.

The group walked within as they slowly circulated their mana. Those who were proficient in defensive skills and spells started to place a barrier around them.

It took them five minutes before they arrived on the other side. This whole place was insanely huge. It was several times larger than the land on the other side of the wall.

Tall mountains, wide forests, long rivers, and grasslands were before their eyes. The crystals on the ceiling were giving off lights the same as the sun.

And behind the mountain range, there was a huge city. It was far but they could see it with their enhanced senses.

Souta looked at the other warriors around him. They were floating in the mid-air, observing their surroundings warily. He was about to float to observe the area when Banni’s voice resounded.

“Warriors! Prepare for combat!”

He quickly turned his head and followed Banni’s line of sight.

The ground was shaking as rocks were rolling around. They collided with each other and slowly turned into humanoid giant creatures. One by one three-meter tall humanoid rocks stood from the ground.

“These… Earth Golem? No, not just that. There are Earth Might Golem and Gladiator Golem.”

Souta narrowed his eyes.

The Earth Golem wasn’t a problem as they only had the power of Liquefying Realm and Solidifying Realm.

But they had an enormous number. He calculated that the number of the Earth Golem was approximately two thousand.

The Earth Might Golem was an upgraded version of Earth Golem. It had the power equivalent to a One Shackle Realm expert. Its number was several times lower than the Earth Golem. It was between one hundred fifty and two hundred.

The problematic ones were the Gladiator Golem. Each one was equivalent to a Two Shackles Realm expert. There were approximately fifty Gladiator Golems in the area.

These golems were different from the dormant Titanous Victor Golem in the Fone Kingdom. These golems were created automatically using earth attribute spells. It means that the people of the Red Matter Association were also here.

“Engage!!” Banni roared as he pointed his dagger ahead.

The warriors followed his command as they rushed forward and collided with the golems.
