The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-583

"Oh, I understand. If I'm living peacefully in a dungeon and suddenly a group of people came in front of my door wanting to take all the valuable things then I would get angry too." Eztein nodded.

"In those monsters' perspective, we're just a group of robbers." Souta sighed. "That's why it's important to look at the situation from different perspectives. Sometimes, you would figure out how things work if you put yourself in your opponent's point of view."

"There's a law that forbids stealing. Of course, the monsters aren't included in that law. It's only for humans and demis. In the end, that law only applies to cities as humans and demis would fight each other in the wilderness for wealth." Alice added.

"I see... I understand now." Eztein nodded in understanding.

Eilish opened her mouth and said, "Sometimes, humans and demis are much cruel than monsters. You would even wonder who are the real monsters."

Monsters only fought for mates and prey yet humans and demis fought for every reason they could find in the world.

"Let's enter now and gather some valuable things," Souta said.

The four of them entered the dungeon leisurely. With their strength, they didn't have to worry about a third evolution monster.

A peak S-rank like Eztein could kill a normal third evolution monster alone.

Alice who was in the initial stage of S-rank could handle a third stage monster with her demon form.

Souta was already stronger than the third evolution but weaker than the four evolution. His strength was abnormal even among the rare monsters.

For Eilish, she was pretty much unstoppable. If there were six of her then she could subdue a normal fourth evolution monster. A shackled realm could already fight a fourth-stage monster to some degree.

In short, one of them could clear this dungeon easily. Four of them entering the dungeon was simply overkill.

Just like what they expected, they cleared the dungeon in an hour. All the valuable things inside become theirs and no one could refute them.

Looking at the loots before his eyes, Souta recalled the time he took the other half of the [Soul Blood Earring]. At that time, he didn't even dare to clear the dungeon because of the other third-stage monsters living in that place. Just one third-stage already gave his group a beat down to the point that they couldn't fight another one.

Yet, at this moment he could clear that level of dungeon alone with his current fighting power.

He also recalled the time he fought Gregory. He even lost ten years of his lifespan for overusing Saya's energy. Ten years of lifespan? He didn't care about it right now as the lifespan of Blood Goblin was one hundred fifty years.

He would evolve into the fourth stage soon and his lifespan would probably increase by three hundred years.

As for monster lords, they didn't have a lifespan at all. They could live forever as long as they wanted.

Yet, even though they could live forever, he hasn't seen someone surpass twenty thousand years old.

The Great War. The God of Hunt said that it was because of the Great War that occurred.

Is it a clearing? Wiping out most of the existence in the universe to reset it? It seems that it only occurred every twenty thousand years.

"What are you thinking, Souta?" Alice asked.

Souta snapped out and he glanced at her. He remembered that only he and Isabella have an idea about the truth that happened twenty thousand years ago. Most of the living creatures in this universe didn't know about it.

What about gods, demon gods, spirit gods, and monster lords? Did they know about it? Maybe, some people have an idea because the God of Hunt wasn't the only god twenty thousand years ago. Some of those gods must have left a clue to the Great War that occurred in the past.

Knowing about something worse would occur in the near future only put a burden on Souta's mind. It seems that the power of the monster lord wasn't enough. He had to raise it to a higher level that no one had attained before.

That unknown. He will reach it to ensure his survival.

"Are the treasures not enough for you, boss?" Eztein asked.

Souta turned to Eztein and shook his head. "It's enough. It could help us."

Then, he glanced at his surroundings.

"This place could become our headquarters too. It's pretty huge."

"But it's pretty far so how are we going to transfer our supply?" Eztein asked.

"Object teleportation. Eilish knew how to place that spell as it was easier than the normal teleportation." Souta said.

"Hmm... It's pretty good. Just you know that object teleportation can't be used on living creatures. It only works on objects." Eilish said with a nod. She then looked at Souta and said, "Actually, I've placed two types of teleportation in my room. It means that there's point A so I just need to place a point B and I would be able to travel back to point A easily."

"So you actually did those things?" Souta narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, it's for my safety. If someone dangerous occurred I just need some time to create point B to escape." Eilish explained.

"Well, then we'll use the Object Teleportation. Since you've already set up the first point then you can set up the second point here so that we could transfer these things back to the headquarters." Souta said to her before he took out a transmission talisman.

"Okay, but it will take one day for me to permanently fix the point B in this place," Eilish said.

"It's fine. We can wait." Souta said.

The thing that Eilish was trying to do was permanently create a portal in this place back to the Guardian Fortress. In this way, they could use the teleporter to transport objects into two different places easily. It wasn't as simple as casting a magic circle.

It was slightly the same as the one in Undead Sanctuary. Souta used a teleporter at that time to get out of the sanctuary and arrive at the Cursed Cemetery.

A permanent magic circle embedded in the ground.

While Eilish was preparing for her work, Souta called Torkez using the transmission talisman.

"Leader, is there something you need?" Torkez asked politely.

"Dispatch Franklin to my place and bring some people that could renovate structures," Souta said his location and slowly explained his plan to Torkez.

"You've found a place that will become our second HQ?" Torkez raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah, so I want you to dispatch some people to protect this place as soon as possible," Souta said.

"I understand. I will quickly dispatch a group of people." Torkez nodded.

"Good." Souta ended the call and he turned back to Eilish.

He watched Eilish create a permanent teleportation spell on the ground. Since he was studying spell casting, he could learn a lot by watching an expert like her.

Alice and Eztein also watched Eilish. No one dares to disturb her as they know the consequences if Eilish makes a single mistake in her work. The worse possible thing was that it would create a huge explosion that could heavily injure them.

On the next day, Eilish had finished her work. She took a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat forming on her forehead. She used half of her energy in creating that permanent point.

"It's finished." She muttered.

Souta stood up and he walked towards the magic circle on the ground. He squatted down and placed his palm on its surface.

"We can use this properly."

He turned around and said. "Eztein, bring all the loots here. We would transport it back to our base right now."

Eztein brought all the loots and placed them on top of the magic circle.

Ohm!

A pillar of light enveloped all the loots and in the next moment, all the loots had disappeared. The loots have been transferred back to the Guardian Fortress.

"Oh, it really works!" Eztein exclaimed.

"Of course, it would work. I'm the one that creates it after all." Eilish rolled her eyes.

Souta glanced at her and said, "You can rest now. I know that it needs a lot of energy to create a teleporter so you must have used a lot of your mana."

"I understand but when are we going to depart?" Eilish asked.

"We'll wait until Franklin and the rest have arrived. We can't leave this place without any guards after all." He said in response to her question.

The group waited for several days until Franklin's group arrived. Franklin brought thirty-five people with him and most of them knew how to build structures. They needed their skills to create a second headquarters for their organization.

This place and the Guardian Fortresses will be connected in the future. With this, they could easily dispatch people to different places.

On the next day, Souta's group quickly departed. They were heading in the direction of the Champion's Den.
