The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 994 Witch Hunt: [Rhongomiant]

Chapter 994 Witch Hunt: [Rhongomiant]
Bang! Bang!
Souta moved swiftly, doing his best to keep up with his opponents. Lorna and her comrades were elite witches—strong and skilled experts.
"This monster is quite tricky!" Lorna remarked as she pursued Souta.
"You're the one who's tricky!" Souta retorted, grinning widely. He leaped away, shooting crimson webs at Lorna's team.
Taking a deep breath, Souta gestured, using his webs to hurl a giant boulder at his opponents. Then, he lunged forward, tightly gripping the vajra sword.
Swoosh!
Cresin, a damage dealer from the Dark Gold Corps, swiftly sliced the boulder into several pieces while Lorna advanced to confront Souta.
Bang!
In an instant, Souta and Lorna exchanged hundreds of blows. Lorna's attacks were swift and precise, but Souta managed to skillfully block each one.
Suddenly, Souta leaped away as a ray of flames engulfed his previous position. Turning his head, he saw a man in a dark robe.
The Dark Gold Corps comprised seven witches—two damage dealers, one tank, two mages, an archer, and a healer. They formed a formidable team with exceptional coordination.
The two mages excelled in support spells, casting buffs to enhance Lorna, Cresin, the tank, and the archer. Additionally, they employed debuff spells to weaken Souta's abilities.
The Dark Gold Corps held a prestigious position within the Walpurgis Night, belonging to the Silver Faction just below the authority of the elders. Few could rival them in combat prowess.
Swoosh!
Lorna and Cresin swiftly closed in on Souta's sides. Souta parried Lorna's attack with his sword while conjuring a shield made of blood to fend off Cresin's assault. Leaping into the air, Souta found himself confronted by the tank waiting below.
"Go down!!" The tank roared as he slammed his shield toward Souta.
Souta reacted quickly, enveloping himself in a layer of blood to cushion the impact. He was sent crashing down onto the ground, kicking up dust and smoke.
Bang!
Emerging from the smoke, Souta faced a barrage of flames and arrows raining down from his previous location. Knowing he couldn't stay in one spot for long, lest the archer and mages target him, Souta swiftly moved from side to side.
"So it's a battle of attrition, huh? I can keep this up until they exhaust themselves," Souta thought to himself, maintaining his agile evasion tactics.
Souta placed his hand on his chest, and after a few moments, a grin spread across his face.
"Hehe, if you don't kill me, then all of you will regret it... I can feel it. You won't be able to bear the consequences. You can't kill me with your strength; all you can do is keep me confined to this place," Souta taunted, laughing.
Lorna narrowed his eyes upon hearing Souta's words, a sense of unease creeping over him.
"Go ahead and try! Otherwise, you'll be responsible for the downfall of your entire faction! Hahaha!" Souta laughed maniacally.
...
Meanwhile, Edern stood before Alice, flanked by two towering figures—his parents.
"You obtained something, didn't you?" Edern inquired eagerly.
"Yes," Alice confirmed.
"In that case, you should start by killing us. Can you do that?" Edern asked excitedly, eager for the long-awaited release of death.
"Yeah," Alice nodded, then lifted her head to meet Edern's gaze. "But I don't think it will be easy. You mentioned that individuals like yourself are programmed to retaliate if attacked, correct?"
"You needn't worry about that. You'll face us one-on-one. Each of us will take turns engaging you, ensuring it's a fair match. It's a different story if you were to attack us simultaneously," Edern clarified.
"Very well, let's relocate. I don't want innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire of our battle," Alice stated firmly.
"Agreed," Edern smiled, turning to his parents. "Mother, Father, let's proceed. Today, we shall achieve the long-awaited release of death."
Alice and the three towering figures moved to a different location. Engaging in battle here would pose a risk to the ordinary people. Edern's mother was named Lemi, and his father was Edan.
They have endured centuries of suffering in this place, subjected to all manner of experiments that have bound them to the Dream Palace. The only reason they have not succumbed to insanity is because of their mutual support for each other. Lemi and Edan have provided each other with emotional and physical support through their trials.
After 'freeing' these three giants, Alice would have to confront and fight the other victims of the witches' experiments to prevent their plan from harming ordinary people.
Alice sensed that battles would erupt in different parts of the Dream Palace. She realized that these individuals would not cease their efforts until they achieved their desired "death."
As they moved, Edan and Lemi shared with Alice what they knew about the history of the Walpurgis Night. The witches who had worked in the Dream Palace in the past had conducted research on the soul.
"They were attempting to manipulate the laws of the soul realm, but such actions carry consequences. During that time, a being named Great Lumb arrived at the facility without anyone noticing," Edan recounted, recalling the incident from the past.
That being, Great Lumb, was like an ominous sign. The events that followed marked the downfall of the Walpurgis Night. Two of the Ten Commandments appeared and killed Le Fay Morgan, leading the Walpurgis Night to retreat into hiding.
"They said that Great Lumb is an administrator tasked with maintaining balance," Lemi explained.
Soon, they arrived at a desolate place devoid of any living beings for several kilometers—a perfect location for their battle.
"This place will suffice," Alice remarked, turning around to face the three giants. "So, who will fight first?"
"I'll go first," Lemi asserted, stepping forward and casting a glance at her husband and son. "We've discussed this at length, but now that death is upon me, I'm feeling a bit nervous."
"If you're unsure, then let me go first," Edan offered.
"No, if you go first, I'll have to witness you fading away before my eyes. I can't bear it," Lemi replied resolutely.
Alice looked at the couple and proposed, "Why don't I take both of you on at the same time?"
Lemi and Edan exchanged a glance before turning back to Alice with wide eyes.
"Are you certain you can handle it?" Edern asked, his perspective on death differing from that of his parents, who were well-acquainted with the concept.
Alice nodded confidently at Edern. "Yes, they've been together all this time, so it's fitting for them to face this together as well."
"Thank you," Edan responded earnestly, his expression shifting. "Please be cautious, though... We are strong. The moment you attack, we may not be able to control our bodies. We will retaliate whether we intend to or not. Therefore, please give it your all from the start."
The atmosphere shifted, and Edern quickly distanced himself from the trio. Edan and Lemi stood poised, awaiting Alice's attack.
Alice took a deep breath as she approached the couple, her energy escalating and the temperature dropping around her. Strands of flesh emerged, enveloping her entire body.
After a brief moment of intense focus, Alice vanished.
Swoosh!
In an instant, she materialized in front of Lemi and Edan. Opening her palm, a bright light emanated from the center of her chest, coalescing into a gold and silver spear.
A brilliant flash erupted from the spear, unleashing a surge of energy like a tidal wave.
"RHONGOMIANT!!"
Edan and Lemi's eyes widened as a blinding light exploded before them. The shockwave rippled through the air, shaking the entire area.
BANG!!
The impact reverberated, the force of Alice's attack resonating through the surroundings.
Edern, watching from afar, was blown away by the impact of Alice's attack. Sparks appeared in the air, distorting the space of this dimension.
"That spear is still here!" Edern muttered, recalling something his father had told him in the past.
Powerful knights had emerged from the Witch Rite of Duels, gaining recognition among the witches. Among them was a formidable leader who stood behind Le Fay Morgan, calling himself the King of Knights.
The spear belonged to that man—the King of Knights. The [Rhongomiant] was a powerful universal-grade weapon.
BOOM!
The ripples spread throughout the area, and the aftershocks were felt across the entire space. Ordinary villagers cowered in fear as they sensed the vibrations in the air, uncertain if they would survive the day.
The children cried nonstop until they fainted, and the adults were unable to comfort them amidst the heavy pressure in the air. Fear and despair consumed their hearts.
On the battlefield, the smoke gradually cleared, revealing Alice's figure. She held the universal-grade weapon in her hand, her expression blank.
The aura surrounding her was fierce, akin to that of a lion. Alice exhaled deeply, her grip on the spear tightening once again.
