The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 1007: Witch Hunt: Traitor

Chapter 1007: Witch Hunt: Traitor

Bryan crashed to the ground, a streak of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He wiped away the blood and smiled. "This woman is strong," he muttered.
Bending his knees, he charged at Elder Uiny in an instant. Four elements swirled around his fist as he threw a heavy punch at her.
Elder Uiny manifested a huge mountain in front of Bryan using her dream power.
However, the massive mountain didn't even last a second as Bryan pierced through it. He arrived in front of her and smashed his fist into her face.
Bang!
Elder Uiny's body was sent flying, crashing onto the ground. Then, a huge golden palm appeared above, descending toward her location.
Zhang Ren, the monk, unleashed his powerful skill without holding back. Edeya also launched several concentrated beams at the impact.
Boom!
A series of explosions ensued, sending mushroom clouds rising into the sky. The shockwaves swept out tens of kilometers in diameter.
Poisonous Vine hovered in the air, observing the explosions below. She smiled and remarked, "Finally, my poisons are slowly taking effect... It seems she's getting weaker."
It had been challenging to affect Elder Uiny with her poison due to the intense resistance surrounding her body. However, now her poison was gradually seeping through those cracks. "It seems I'm not the one who's going to die today," Poisonous Vine said, a grin on her face. Swoosh!
Elder Uiny waved her hand, dispersing the thick smoke in the surroundings. She coughed up a mouthful of blood before looking up at Bryan, Zhang Ren, and Edeya.
"It can't be... Why did the magic circles stop working?"
The magic circles that were supposed to hasten the destruction of Walpurgis Night had ceased functioning due to some unknown interference.
How? Why did this happen?
Elder Uiny wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and glared at her opponents. She knew she had to kill them, no matter what.
Thud!
Bryan landed in front of her, tightly clenching both fists. "It's time for you to stop worrying about other things! Focus on the fight in front of you!" he declared.
He dashed forward and threw a punch. Elder Uiny shifted her body to the side, narrowly avoiding Bryan's fist. Then, she raised her foot and swept it toward Bryan's side, but he blocked it with his hand.
Bryan then opened his mouth wide as a burst of four elements erupted.
[Quad Element Roar]!
The beam sent her several kilometers away.
Boom!
Bryan wanted to chase after her, but he sensed something. Looking up, he saw suspended energy blades in the air. He immediately jumped away, but the energy blades chased him. Swoosh! Swoosh!
He destroyed some of the energy blades with his fist, though a few managed to cut his body. "She left those energy blades before I could attack her... If she's not injured, I don't think I can win against her," Bryan thought, glancing at the wounds on his body before turning his attention to the explosion where Elder Uiny was located.
The smoke dispersed, revealing Elder Uiny, covered in blood.
"What's Cermine doing?" she muttered to herself. Among the six elders, there were only two traitors who desired the fall of Walpurgis Night. She fought here with her life, yet Elder Cermine was nowhere to be seen.
Boom!
The ground shook in another region of Walpurgis Night.
Elder Cermine was locked in a fierce battle with a man covered in bandages.
Shockwaves swept out as they clashed in the middle of the region, affecting the surroundings and even destroying some golems that pounced on them.
Widespread destruction ensued as the two experts fought fiercely.
Elder Cermine retreated, casting narrowed eyes at Grim. She bore a huge wound across her body. She hadn't expected to encounter someone as formidable as him in this land.
She asked, "Who are you?!"
"I'm called Grim," the man covered in bandages introduced himself. He smirked underneath the bandages on his face and said, "Moon Coven. I know your history. Unfortunately, your plan will not succeed today."
"Y-You know it?!" Elder Cermine widened her eyes.
"I know a lot of things. Your plan is to let this land fall down, right? This is the right time since the power of Purity is getting active. You people don't want anyone to uncover the truth," Grim explained. He paused before adding, "You're just simply wasting such information. It's better to analyze those things and prepare for countermeasures."
"You don't know the consequences of such actions! You have no idea of the horror behind it!" Elder Cermine said strongly.
Grim turned serious and replied, "So you've seen it? No, you've just read the data about it. If you had truly seen it, you'd be corrupted without a doubt."
He finally had an idea about what happened to this elder. Even though she hadn't seen it, just by reading the data alone, her mind had somehow been corrupted without her knowing.
All she wanted to do was bury that information, no matter the cost. Nothing mattered to her, not even her family, as she didn't realize that her mind was corrupted.
"That information can't be revealed no matter what! It will awaken faster than you can imagine!" Elder Cermine said, her tone tinged with madness.
"Don't worry. I won't spread such information. My comrades will study it and prepare a countermeasure for its arrival," Grim assured her.
"What can you do?! You're not even a God?!" Elder Cermine roared.
"I'm not alone. Our Origin Order has gods. We're in pursuit of the truth. Have you perhaps heard about the Primordial Gods?" Grim said as he took a step forward.
"Primordial Gods?" Elder Cermine retreated, but Grim chased after her.
He said, "Yeah, those Primordial Gods. They are currently in slumber, but they will awaken
soon after a long time. The time when the Great Barrier disappeared will come." Grim flicked a gem out of his pocket. The gem rotated in the air as it produced a huge amount
of energy.
"You can't escape with a Spatial Gem in my hands," his voice echoed.
Elder Cermine gritted her teeth as she felt a strong pressure pressing down on her.
She tried to resist the pressure, laughing maniacally. "Hahaha, Primordial Gods? Those gods from the forgotten era! It wouldn't change a thing! They couldn't even prevent the calamity from their era, so why do you think they could change the situation? Hahahaha!"
Her eyes were filled with madness as she continued, "They would only make the situation worse! Do you think the gods in our era will let them wander around?! If they wanted to reign again, then they would have to fight the current gods! Even if they don't want to reign, the gods will not let them walk around without restrictions!"
The rulers of the forgotten era and the rulers of the current era wouldn't be able to coexist easily. A battle would surely occur before they reached an understanding.
Grim didn't say anything more as he arrived in front of Elder Cermine.
...
In the Dream Palace.
Red Mist staggered back, spitting a mouthful of blood. Her breathing was heavy, and she was
covered in wounds.
She glared at Elder Amulgu, Elder Grecia, and a group of elite witches in front of her. Despite her increased strength, she couldn't defeat them.
"Don't push yourself too much..." Fiamma's voice sounded in her head.
"No, you know the reason why I'm doing this. I can't forgive them. If I die, then immediately leave this place," Red Mist replied to her spirit. Her eyes burned with revenge. Elder Amulgu, Elder Grecia, and the elite witches weren't in good condition either. They had
suffered heavily while fighting someone as strong as Red Mist. Exhausted and riddled with injuries, they stood before her.
Elder Amulgu stepped forward and said, "Give up now. You can't kill us. You must have realized this too. The holy stakes have appeared, and this game will end soon." "Give up? There's no way... Do you understand how much I loathe this place? I'll burn this
place even if I die," Red Mist declared, standing up and wiping the blood from the corner of
her mouth.
"Do you really want to destroy our land? If so, then you'll leave me no choice," Elder Amulgu said as she gathered her last bit of energy into her soul weapon.
"Would you believe me if I said that I... I wanted to live a normal life?" Red Mist said.
Elder Amulgu didn't respond. Mavois and the other elite witches stood behind her, raising
their weapons in preparation against Red Mist.
'You can stop now...' Fiamma said to Red Mist, sounding concerned. She knew that this would happen, yet she couldn't do anything to stop it.
'I will not stop until I draw my last breath,' Red Mist said with difficulty. Fighting two elders and a group of elite witches was too much, even for a strong expert like
her. Back then, she hadn't even imagined such a situation. No one would have thought that
she would fight two elders and the Crescent Moon Squad on her own.
She had been a normal girl at that time.
The first witch to manage to leave the Walpurgis Night ever since they had hidden themselves.
The traitor, Remuria.
