The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak
chapter-648

Souta used [Possession] and the power of his parasite realizing that he couldn't take it more easily. Although he wanted to save [Possession] for later fights, he realized that he had to use one of his aces if he wanted to eliminate the three people before him.

Boom! Boom!

The battle became intense as Souta started to take this fight seriously. The three people were using [Element Drive] at the same time to overwhelm him.

Unfortunately for them, Souta was an expert in fighting several opponents at the same time. He had vast experience in this type of battle.

Swoosh!

Blood gathered around turning into a huge crimson sphere fifty meters above the surface. And some of the blood was flowing around Souta protecting him from any harm.

The woman slashed her sword but Souta jumped away as blood turned into sharp bullets, shooting at her nonstop.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

The man with a round shield stepped in front of her and blocked the blood bullets.

Bang! Bang!

"This one is a tricky monster..." The man with a round shield muttered.

"Stop complaining, just do your job and we'll get it done." The woman said before she charged forward once again.

She and the man with a pair of daggers attacked Souta on both sides.

Souta looked left and right. He waved his sword and a barrier made of black lightning formed around him.

[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!

[Fourth Form: Bridal Lotus Benevolent Rose]!

Boom! Boom!

"What the hell?!" The woman cursed as veins popped on her forehead.

The barrier blocked their attack but they realized that it wouldn't last long if they attack it several times.

"Attack again!!"

They wanted to attack once again but they noticed something. Both of them looked above and saw the huge crimson sphere spinning wildly.

In the next moment, the crimson sphere shoots countless blood bullets in their direction.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

"Not enough!"

Souta grinned as he thrust his sword upward.

[Archetype: Vajra Extremity]!

[First Form: Mahayana Tribulation]!!

Black clouds gathered as dark lightning rained down along with the blood bullets. Every escape route was blocked and there was nothing they could do except defend themselves from these vicious attacks.

The [Archetype: Vajra Extremity] was close to reaching fifty percent mastery. It means that it was close to fully showing its true might. Although it was still less than fifty percent, it was enough to fight One Shackle Realm experts.

The Fourth Form could at least take ten all-out attacks from One Shackle Realm expert before it breaks and two to four attacks from Two Shackle Realm expert.

"This is...?!"

The man with a round shield was stunned looking at the scene. He realized that he couldn't block all of the attacks that were coming at them.

"Take a hold of yourself, everyone!!"

The woman and the man with a pair of daggers had no choice but to step away from Souta while erecting a barrier around them.

They had no choice but to retreat as they didn't even know if Souta was going to attack them while blocking the blood bullets and dark lightning coming from above.

Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!

Souta was about to launch an attack but something interrupted him. His attention turned to the ceiling of the entire place.

A boulder several times larger than before fell. His eyes could see all the runes gleaming on its surface. It contained a vast amount of energy.

'I hope that Chief Vandal could handle it. The aftermath of destroying that thing will not be easy to handle.'

The fragments from that boulder would be enough to devastate the entire nation. It was like an energy reactor that could explode anytime.

From this action alone, he realized that the Red Matter members in this place were like a suicide squad that was ready to sacrifice their lives.

Swoosh!

Just like what he expected, he saw Vandal fly towards the boulder.

The Chief Captain of the Third Set was emitting a powerful energy that covered the entire nation. Streams of energy were spreading out from Vandal's body like a spider web.

Souta quickly stopped the blood bullets that were raining down. The blood flow in his direction and it turned into several layers of the umbrella to protect him from the aftermath.

"Hahaha, this is the end!"

The woman laughed as she looked at Souta. She and the other two men took out a small device from their pockets.

The device had a size of a palm and it has a triangular shape with a thumb size orb in each corner.

"Goodbye, Mr. Monster."

The woman said with a smile before she pressed the button on the device. The other two men also pressed the button and a field of electric sparks formed around them.

"What's that?!"

Souta narrowed his eyes. His eyes adjusted as he looked at the field of electric sparks around them.

"This...? No?!!!"

He quickly turned on the sky but it was already too late.

BOOOOM!!!

Light burst from the sky as a thunderous sound echoed. A gust of winds swept out in every direction along with the intense energy pressure.

Ripples of energy wave spread out from the center of the impact. The whole atmosphere vibrated and it started to boil obliterating every object within the impact.

The debris from the boulder scattered in every direction. It fell right through the city. The damage it did was devastating.

"No! It's a set-up ever since the first boulder!"

Souta tried to spread out the blood to protect other people from falling debris.

His gleaming eyes turned to the three people. It was full of killing intent that made them feel a chill running through their spine.

"I'll kill you all after this..."

As soon as he said those words, blood covered his entire body. It isolated him from everything.

Giant rocks continue to fall. Explosions sounded throughout the city as smoke and roaring flames spread out. The population of the city was directly cut down by thirty percent.

The higher-ups of the Republic of Aekr worked together to protect their people from death.

A unity occurred among them.

Everything that they did was for the safety of the masses. Vandal already told them to leave the battle to the warriors of Athena and that they should focus on protecting the people.

And looking in a positive light, only thirty percent of the population had died.

"What the hell is that?!"

The President muttered with a pale expression. He was injured as his chest was stabbed before but he didn't stop to rest. He kept moving to help his people.

"If that giant boulder fell it would wipe out the entire nation..."

Various emotions were swirling in his heart. He wanted to blame the warriors for provoking the Red Matter but he couldn't do so. Just from the action of Red Matter, he knew that they would have fallen from their hands sooner or later even without them being provoked by Athen's Champion.

"No, no, I should focus myself on saving my people."

He took a deep breath to calm himself.

Everything was silent as smoke slowly dissipated. Buildings were destroyed and the bustling streets were now filled with corpses. The stench of blood was everywhere and the color of blood dyed the ground in red.

It was horrible.

"I..."

Vandal looked at the scene below him with cold eyes. He already steeled his heart but to see this kind of scene set a ripple in his heart.

"Everyone protect yourself!!" A loud voice echoed.

He recalled that it was the voice of the monster in his set. If he wasn't wrong, his name was Souta.

At Souta's words, Vandal quickly reacted as he saw waves of blood flow in the mid-air. It was followed by electric sparks that spread out like a net trying to enclose everything.

"Shit!!"

The electric sparks came from every direction as they surrounded him. Pain assaulted his body as he tried to resist it with his energy.

"This is sealing technique...?! What about the other warriors?!"

He looked down and saw the same thing all over the city. The electric sparks were spreading out enveloping the warriors on the ground.

Swoosh!!

Souta moved his body as he controlled the blood to block the sparks that were coming at him.

His body suddenly disappeared from his body and waves of blood flooded a part of the city.

It became a river of blood.

Swoosh!

Souta appeared inside one of the houses. His breathing was heavy as his aura slowly hid inside his body. He was trying to conceal his presence while controlling the river of blood that he created.

"Luckily, I hid one of the [Shadow Ball]s."

The entire place became a sealing ground. It wasn't a good idea to show himself right now. He had to let the sealing process pass for now before he made a move.

They were tricked.

It was perfectly planned by the Red Matter Association. The first boulder was a set-up and the second boulder was a distraction. There were sealing runes hidden inside those boulders so when Vandal destroyed it, the runes scattered around the city.

And when the time was right, the Red Matter Association activated the sealing runes and it caught everyone off guard.

It was a good tactic.
