The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 348 - Battle at the Moon Tower: You can't stop the ritual

Chapter 348 - Battle at the Moon Tower: You can't stop the ritual

Lynn and Lumilia couldn't believe it when they found that Yuko evolved into a third evolution monster. The power level of the monster was entirely different to humans and demis. Every evolution would increase their strength by several folds.
Since the dawn of the world, the monster's power level was fixed to their evolution level while the humans and demis just based their power levels on the monsters.
Twenty thousand years ago, they called the F-rank and E-rank powerhouses a Warrior Level. D-rank and C-rank powerhouses a Battle Warrior while B-rank and A-rank a Knight Level which could somehow fight a third evolution monster.
Knight Level was the basic level of powerhouses in ancient times. A level of a normal soldier at that time.
Battle Knight was the people who could fight a fourth evolution monster. Their level was equivalent to S-rank and SS-rank powerhouses at the current time. At this level, one could become a captain of a squad in ancient times.
The SSS-rank and Hero-rank were called Ascension Knight. One could become a commander of an army in ancient times. They were the one who was close to gods. That's why they were called Ascension Knights. They were also the ones who could fight a fifth evolution monster.
And then there were false gods. The people who failed the ascension to godhood were called as such. They were stronger than mortal but they weren't stronger than real gods and deities.
Lastly, the gods... There's nothing much to stay except that they were at the apex of individual strength in the whole cosmos.
Some people said that there was a power level higher than gods but no one managed to prove it. They said that level of strength wasn't going to meddle in the affairs of the whole cosmos. They were just overseeing outside the space and time. A god could oversee one or two sub-world while the level beyond god oversees everything, an omnipresent powerhouse.
Since no one could prove it, it became a myth as time passed by.
...
Aside from being shocked Lumilia and Lynn were also glad that the monster was Yuko. Why they didn't think that it would be Yuko?
"Hurry up and heal Jin!!"
Alophy shouted as she tried to pull Lynn towards Yujin.
Lynn approached Yuko and looked at Yujin on her back. Yujin's figure was full of injuries and the blood didn't stop pouring out of it.
"I'll apply first aid first."
She said as she raised her hand and placed it on Yujin's largest wound. She will stop the blood from coming out of the wounds first. If she didn't stop it, Yujin could die from blood loss.
Lynn circulated her mana and used a healing spell but it was disrupted making her feel like a thousand ants were crawling in her body.
"I can't cast a spell..." She muttered as she looked at her hands.
"How come...?" Alophy was stunned when she heard Lynn's words.
At that time, Lumilia approached them and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't stop you quickly. I was too shocked and couldn't react properly. We're in the presence of Yuko, a third evolution monster, she just evolved so she couldn't properly contain her best feram. Under this pressure, we couldn't cast a spell except for our inner spell."
She was right, Yuko just evolved a few minutes ago and her energy kept leaking out of her body. She needed to familiarize herself first before she could properly control her energy.
"Mu...?" Yuko tilted her head as she couldn't understand what they were saying.
Lumilia had no choice but to communicate with Yuko using gestures. She tried her best to let Yuko understand what she wanted.
She kept pointing at Almer and Lina which makes the two sweat heavily. They were nervous and they couldn't help it. After all, a third evolution monster was in front of them.
Alophy and Lynn helped too. After a few minutes of hard work, Yuko finally understood what they meant.
"This...?" Almer subconsciously took a step backward when Yuko's attention turned to them.
"We're in a very bad situation." Lina forced a smile. "If this monster came from the floor below then Gyun and Ryo..."
"F.u.c.k!!" Almer cursed as he realized what Lina was trying to say. He tightly clenched his fist in anger.
"A third evolution monster... This is something we didn't expect." Lina said wryly.
At first, they thought that they were going to win the battle but now... Their chances were slim.
"What should we do, Lina?" Almer glanced at Lina as he forced a smile on his face.
"We should buy time for our leader as much as possible," Lina replied to him with a smile.
"You're right... Even if we die." Almer nodded his head as his expression turned serious.
Both of them owed their leader, Curdova, their life. Before they joined this group, they were both duke and duchess of their dukedom. They were peacefully living in that piece of land and their subjects were satisfied with their rule.
But the forces of the Church of True God destroyed their dukedom. They've massacred everyone inside it. Their children and parents were included in it.
They've only survived because Curdova managed to save the two of them. Thinking about that time, they recalled how Curdova kept apologizing to them because he didn't manage to save their family. He blamed himself for that tragedy.
They owed their lives to their leader.
All the executives and members of the Moon Tower owed Curdova. He somehow saved them and give them a reason to live. A reason to fight against the one who oppressed them. Even though it's not a great reason, they still grabbed it and helped him formed this organization.
For them, Curdova was the greatest person that couldn't be compared with the kings of those large countries. When they don't have anyone to support them, he was there to comfort them. He alone saved a lot of people even if he doesn't acknowledge it himself. Even if he treated himself as a villain, for the members of the Moon Tower he was a hero that they will not forget in their life.
Actually, they didn't think that they could fight a great country but still... They supported Curdova in everything that he did. Since he saved their lives, they could give up their lives for him without hesitation.
For their leader's goal... They were willing to give up everything.
"Lina, let's do this...!" Almer said as a smile appeared on his face. The fear in his heart disappeared.
"Yeah, I'll support you so let's do this for our leader!" Lina smiled too.
Almer bent his knees and he charged forward while Lina followed him from behind, ready to give support at any moment.
This will be their final struggle before they perished.
...
Sounds of metal clashing against each other echoed in the room full of heavy mana.
Souta slashed his sword in different directions but Curdova simply blocked his attacks.
Even though he was using [Possession], he still couldn't match the leader of the Moon Tower. A powerful man that commanded a lot of powerhouses in this city.
Red aura enveloped his sword and he swung it towards Curdova. Curdova clad his halberd with his mana before he thrust it forward.
Boom!
Both of their attacks collided causing a powerful shockwave that blew the black mist in the surrounding area. After that, the black mist went back and enveloped everything.
Souta could see through this black mist and it couldn't block his vision. He was the caster of this spell after all. In fact, it strengthened his stats and decreased the stats of his opponents. Curdova didn't have a problem seeing through this black mist. He was an A-rank powerhouse and he could use his mana to strengthened his vision and pierce through this spell.
Souta took a distance away from his opponents. He quickly glanced at the giant metallic figure at the center of the magic circle.
At this moment, half of metallic figure's body was out of the magic circle. It won't be long before it finally came out and showed its power to the world.
The power of this metallic figure wasn't enough to scare those large countries but if it fused with Cl.u.s.ter it will become one of the greatest weapons of war.
One of the bosses in the game that he couldn't defeat even if he worked with other players.
"You can't stop the ritual... Even if you have the power to defeat, you can't defeat me in just a short amount of time." Curdova said to him in a deep tone.
Souta took a deep breath and he raised his sword. He was preparing to attack once again.
"Well, since you in the way of my plan! I will kill you right here right now!" Curdova said as he charged towards Souta with his halberd in his hand.
