The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 177 - Dark Vine Stinger

Chapter 177 - Dark Vine Stinger

"So you're the master of all these monsters," Souta said as he looked at the man with a grin on his face.
The man looked at Souta with rage in his eyes. His eyes didn't stay longer on Souta as he was focused on the guild master.
"Damn! If I only know that you two will block my way... I would've killed you before." The man cursed as he gritted his teeth. He was feeling restless as he prepared this evolution for a very long time. He couldn't afford to fail this time.
Once he has a pet of fourth evolution monster, he would become unrivaled in the small kingdoms and countries. A fourth evolution was a realm closer to the monster lord.
"You wouldn't be able to stop the guild master with me blocking your way." Souta looked at the man in the eyes and asked, "Tell me what you feel right now? Do you feel nervous, scared, or... rage?"
"You! I'll kill you and everyone in this place! For disrupting my plan, I'll take all of your life! I'll leave my pets to eat your body!!" The man opened his arms widely and dozens of dark vine eaters appeared behind him.
Yuko and Souta looked at all the monsters behind the man with a serious expression. No matter how powerful they are, they still couldn't handle it several dozens of dark vine eaters attack them at the same time.
Souta gripped the vajra sword tightly and channeled his energy inside it.
He was going to charge towards the man with Yuko when a powerful roar shook the entire place.
Boom!!
Even without looking, Souta guessed that the guild master did a good job in disrupting the evolution of the dark vine stinger into terror vine devourer.
The face of the man contorted in anger as he watched the scene in front of him. He didn't think that all the man that he prepared would crumble like this.
Even though he was writhing in rage, he still didn't charge to stop the guild master. He knew that Souta and the red fur bear would block his way.
He could only watch as the white cocoon formed a crack on its surface. The cracks spread quickly before it broke into tiny pieces. It then faded into thin air.
What revealed was a huge furry body of a monster, the dark vine stinger. It has the same appearance as the dark vine eater and the only difference was the vines on its back.
The vines were rooted in the golden color orb on the back of the monster. The vines had the same color of the orb and it was covered in thick dense best feram.
Somehow, the best feram around the dark vine eater was highly unstable. It must be because it didn't finish its evolution and it took severe internal injury.
Despite that, the power of best feram was still a problem to Souta and the guild master.
The dark vine eater stretched out its hands and smashed the ground.
Boom!
The guild master simply looked at it with a serious expression. He slightly turned his head and glanced at the mastermind behind all the happenings in their dukedom.
He shook his head and looked back at the dark vine eater. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "Ranny... The duke trust you as his right hand to protect the whole dukedom but who would have thought that you're the one who would kill him and bring destruction to the Fersch dukedom"
That's right. Ranny was the name of the mastermind. He was the commander of the knights of the duke's family. He was also the one who was tasked to protect this place from invaders and other disasters.
"Damn! I don't care about that! Do you know what that duke did to me?!" Ranny shouted at the top of his lungs.
The guild master shook his head and he focused his attention on the powerful monster in front of him. His muscles bulge out as he opened his palm and charged towards the dark vine stinger.
Swoosh!
He grabbed the neck of the monster and launched himself in the air.
Boom!
They hit the ceiling of the bas.e.m.e.nt but the guild master used [Air Walk] to step on the air. This increased his power and they broke the ceiling of the bas.e.m.e.nt.
The guild master used his pure brute strength to shattered the thick ceiling. It was impossible for normal adventurers but the guild master was veteran B-rank for a long time. His power was close to those A-rank adventurers.
They rose one hundred meters above the ground. The dark vine stinger opened its mouth and a condensed best feram formed in it.
'[Bestrou]? No good?!' The guild master released his grip on the neck of the monster and he quickly shifted his body to the side.
The dark vine stinger shot a powerful beam and the guild master saw it coming so he managed to avoid it easily.
Swoosh!
The beam shot on the town and it caused a powerful explosion that destroyed dozen of houses around the Fersch dukedom.
Boom!
Everyone in the dukedom was shocked when the explosion appeared. The ground heavily shook and a powerful shockwave swept everything around the explosion.
Lumilia, Bryan, and Brando who were helping the adventurers fight the dark vine eaters around the dukedom stop moving as the huge explosion stunned them.
"This..." Lumilia muttered with a surprised expression. The destructive power of that explosion rivaled the things that happened in the Gripin city.
The shockwave swept out and Brando stood in front of them. He blocked the shockwave that destroyed several houses in the vicinity.
"Damn! This is bad!" Brando gritted his teeth as his blood flow down from his mouth.
Boom!
Boom!
Several shockwaves once again swept out but it came from different direction. The one from before came from the huge explosion but these shockwaves came from other direction.
Lumilia turned her head and looked at the duke's mansion. She saw a monster and a person clashing at high speed that caused all these shockwaves. She wondered who's the one fighting that powerful monster. If it was Souta, she would be able to recognize him immediately.
She immediately looked at Bryan and Brando and shouted, "We need to get out of here as soon as possible! The danger of staying inside the dukedom increased several times!"
The scale of this battle was the same as the one in the Gripin city. No, there's a possibility that this one was higher. The dark vine eaters rampaging around the dukedom didn't matter anymore. It would also die if it stayed in this place and received those shockwaves.
This dukedom was small compared to the Gripin city so if the battle continued this dukedom was likely to get destroyed along with its citizens.
"What about the people?!" Bryan asked Lumilia.
"We'll rescue them. We'll carry one person each and leave this place. We also need to notify the other adventurers about the danger." Lumilia replied to him.
"Okay." Brando nodded at her.
Lumilia knew that they couldn't rescue everyone in this dukedom. It wasn't the same as the Gripin city where the city guards were protecting the civilian from any harm. This time, they lacked the manpower to help the people in need as the guards and the adventurers could barely kill those dark vine eaters. Also, the power level of the people here was low compared to the people in the Gripin city. Such difference made the casualties higher.
She bit her lower lips until blood flows down.
'Souta, I'm sorry I could not help you this time.'
...
Boom! Boom!
The guild master threw several powerful punches on the furry body of the dark vine stinger.
The vines on the back of the dark vine stinger stretched out and it shot towards the guild master.
[Compact Muscle]!
[Flesh Boosting]!
The guild master used combat arts to increased his overall stats and swiftly avoided all the vines. A simple barrier spell wouldn't work against this type of attack.
The power of best feram could shatter the spell made of mana easily.
The guild master rushed to the side of the monster and he pulled back his fist.
[Wind Grinding Blow]!
Winds spun around his fist and he threw it towards the side of the dark vine stinger.
Bang!
Suddenly, the guild master felt pain at his side as the dark vine stinger swung its tail at him.
He flew at high speed and crashed inside the duke's mansion.
"Argh!"
He spat a mouthful of blood. All the powerful shot that he launched could barely damage the dark vine stinger. He knew that he was no match against a monster that was on the verge of evolving into fourth evolution.
The dark vine stinger was already injured because of the failed evolution. Despite this, the guild master was still not a match for this powerful monster.
"Really, a party of A-rank is needed to subdue this monster. I'll hold this monster for as long as I can." The guild master muttered as he patted his clothes and stood up. "I'll leave Ranny to you, Souta."
