The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 388 - Three Commanders

Chapter 388 - Three Commanders

The black beam was wide. It covered fifty meters in length and height. It continued to expand as Souta charged his mana in it.
Boom! Boom!
Sounds of explosions occurred at the black beam destroyed everything in its path. Everything was disintegrated as it turned the people and structures into dust.
BOOOM!!!
At the end of the beam, it exploded causing a gigantic mushroom of smoke. It was three kilometers away from Souta but they could clearly see the mushroom of smoke as if it was right before them.
It killed everyone in its way not just the soldiers of the Great Astley Empire. Even some of the citizens that didn't run away got caught up in the explosion.
Swoosh!
Souta looked at it with an amazed expression. He didn't even charge it with his mana to the limit but the destructive force of this spell was already large. If he charged it to the extent of what a tier 2 spell could take then the power of this spell would grow several times.
Also, this spell was still a level 1 tier 2 spell. As expected of an offensive spell. His other tier 2 spell like [Gravitational Ball] and [Dark Cloud Hunting] were just support spells.
It's really different if he had an offensive tier 2 spell.
"No matter how much I see it, that one really contains so much power," Lydia said while looking at the mushroom of smoke with amazement in her eyes.
The citizens and the side of the Great Astley Empire were stunned at this sight. The power of that attack was simply unimaginable to them. They were lucky that the explosion occurred three kilometers away. If it exploded here then they couldn't imagine what will happen to them.
Souta smiled and he looked at the system. He found that the quest that he received was a chain quest. It was really good. This was the second time he triggered a chain quest ever since he came to this world.
He looked at the details of the quest while the enemies were trying to regain their senses.
[Great Astley Empire] Quest 1: Defeat the three commanders of the Great Astley Empire that arrived in the Blackrock City.
Rewards: 15,000 exp, 10 free attribute points, and 8 skill points
Souta looked back and shouted, "Lydia, come here. We are going to fight the three commanders." Since she was from the side of the enemy before, she should be able to recognize the commanders of the Great Astley Empire.
"What?! Are you for real?" Lydia replied to him as she dashed towards Souta and landed on the roof of the house twenty meters away from him.
"I said before that I'll help you, right? So we're going to fight them head-on. Don't try to go back." Souta said to her.
"...okay, fine." Lydia gulped before she answered him.
"Don't hold back and tell me the appearance of the three commanders of these sh.i.p.s," Souta said while looking at the three sh.i.p.s in the dark sky.
"I don't need to tell you..." Lydia said seriously. Before Souta could say something she added, "They are here."
Souta turned to the sh.i.p.s and saw one person came out of each ship. The three people landed on the ground and it caused it to shake. Cracks formed on the ground beneath their feet as they turned their attention to Souta.
Boom!
All three of them were wearing black armor but it was different. Their armor felt like it was alive as dark blue veins were throbbing around it.
"Be careful, Souta. They are powerful. The center is called Vagua, the strongest among the three. On the left is called Jayce while on the right is called Denver. All of them are commanders of the Great Astley Empire." Lydia introduced them to him while watching the movements of the three people.
"I see..." Souta nodded and silently activated the [Agility Boost], [Strength Boost], [Triple Muscle Strengthening], [Cat's Speed], [Shadow Cloak], and [Night Overlord's Aura]. Since they were inside the city, the effect of the [Dominator of City] skill was activated.
He didn't dare to underestimate a quest that was worth 8 skill points.
"Commander of the 56th, 57th, and 58th battalion are here. I didn't think that they would send this much force on this world. It seems that they are serious in taking over this world." Lydia said with a serious expression. Her aura was slowly surging and her muscles were tightening. "Well, I'm a commander of the 36th battalion before so we're pretty much in the same position."
"Oh? I see..." Souta glanced at her and saw her armor was slowly changing. It was surprising to see it. 'This is...' He was stunned.
Lydia had changed. Yes, her armor felt like it was alive. It was better to call it a second skin. It was like a suit that was tightly wrapped around her body.
The suit was dark and has dark green-colored design. Her nails were sharp and she had dark-colored exoskeleton armor on her elbows and h.i.p.s.
On her back were two triangular-shaped objects that were connected to her upper shoulder.
She glanced at Souta and said, "Oh, right? I forgot to mention this to you. This is one is called parasitic essence eater. This could boost a person fighting ability to a higher degree."
'F.u.c.k!!' Souta cursed inwardly while looking at Lydia's appearance.
He was about to say something when he felt that the three commanders moved their bodies quickly.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The three commanders also had the parasitic essence eater that Lydia had. So that's why it felt like their armor had life. The armor of the three commanders covered their faces with a mask that was part of their armor.
Vagua pulled out a long sword and part of his armor wrapped around it. The sword became bigger and stronger because of it.
Jayce and Denver did the same as they launched themselves at Souta and Lydia.
Swoosh!! Swoosh!!
Jayce arrived in front of Lydia and slashed his blade at her while saying, "So you're hiding here, Lydia. I didn't think that you would betray the empire."
A blade appeared on Lydia's hand and she used it to block Jayce's attack.
Bang!
Boom!
The two objects on her back glowed and it shoots mana beams at Jayce but Jayce already saw it so he jumped in the air and avoided the two beams.
Then, a pair of wings appeared on his back. It flapped and he once again flew towards Lydia.
The two collided once again.
Boom!
Souta narrowed his eyes while looking at the two. They have the power of a peak B-rank and it seems that they could exert more power than what they've shown.
He suddenly turned around while slashing the vajra sword as Denver appeared.
Denver was surprised but he managed to block Souta's sword using a blade that appeared on his c.h.e.s.t.
Clang!
"Tsk!" Souta clicked his tongue as he moved backward when he saw Vagua was going to help Denver.
But the two wouldn't let him get away easily. Vagua and Denver chased after him with their speed that surpassed all the B-rank that he had fought before.
[Shadow Bind]!
The ground turned black and black tentacles emerged from it. The tentacles quickly moved as it tried to restrain the two commanders that were chasing Souta.
"Petty tricks!" Denver said as his two hands turned into blades and he slashed the black tentacles.
He slashed the tentacles while Vagua was moving forward. Vagua ignored the tentacles as he knew that Denver would handle it.
Swoosh!
Vagua arrived in front of Souta and he slashed his sword. Souta raised the vajra sword and clad his mana in it.
Clang!
Sparks flew out as their swords collided.
"I didn't think that there would be someone as strong as you in this world. But it's all too late. We've received information from the people that you've slaughtered before that's why we are dispatched to handle you." Vagua said as he slashed his sword once again.
Souta swung his sword too and both of their weapons collided causing a powerful shockwave.
The army that he slaughtered before sent out his information before he slay them. Using ten thousand soldiers just to get his information was really good. Only empire that has an enormous amount of soldiers could do that.
"Really, good for you to come here." He said with a smile as he moved his body to the side and used [Crimson Moon] towards Denver.
Swoosh!
He then went on the ground as black mist started seeping out of his body.
[Dark Cloud Hunting]!!
Souta raised his head and looked at the to with a wide grin and said, "Let's fight for real this time."
