The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 428 – Great Astley Empire: Planet Astley

Chapter 428 – Great Astley Empire: Planet Astley

Souta glanced at Torkez who was at his side after firing the [Dark Shooting Ray]. He asked, "How is the parasitic essence eater in the lab?"
"There's no result. We couldn't find how the parasitic essence eaters reproduced. We have a theory but there's no proof so we couldn't prove it. Since we're coming towards the Planet Astley, I'm sure that there are a bunch of parasites in their main lab." Torkez replied to him. Although he wanted to help Souta, he couldn't do anything as he didn't have a long-range attack that could destroy a ship.
Souta nodded. He will know everything once he gathered the empire's data about the parasitic essence eater. This kind of creature was foreign to him so he was curious about it.
Swoosh!
Several beams of white light flew in their direction.
Hmph!
Souta narrowed his eyes as he waved his hand and the gravity field around him expanded. It blocked the beams of light causing a powerful explosion on the surface of the gravity field.
Boom!
Then, hundreds of beams of light coming from behind them flew towards the enemy's fleet. They concentrated their attacks on the part where Souta's ship going to break through.
"It's not enough..." Torkez muttered while looking at the empire's army.
"Yeah, there's too many of them." Souta nodded and he glanced to the army behind them. He took out the transmission talisman and called Lydia.
"What's wrong, Souta? Do you have a problem?" Lydia quickly asked.
"Yes, tell everyone concentrates the attack in one point. Forget everything just do what I said. I will provide enough firepower to pierce the empire's formation." Souta said and he hung up the call. He then glanced at Torkez and ordered him to go inside the ship and tell them to concentrate the energy of the ship in speed.
"I understand." Torkez nodded solemnly as he flew back inside the ship.
He understood what Souta wanted to do. Souta will become the shield and cannon of the ship. They don't need to waste their energy in firing the cannons. They just needed to use it to increase the mother ship's speed to a higher level.
Souta looked ahead with a serious expression. The casualties on their side were huge and the casualties on the empire's side were also huge but the empire's army didn't seem to be decreasing.
He felt the speed of the ship increased by several times and countless beams of light exploded on the empire's army just ahead of them.
He slowly lifted his hand and gathered a huge amount of best feram on the tip of his finger.
Dark red energy spun around on the tip of his finger. Torrents of energy were crackling around him. The ball of energy expanded several times before it shrunk and the intensity of the fluctuations grew higher.
The intense energy sent out an alarm to every ship in the area. The Liberation White Army's alarm has rung at the same time. The same thing happened to the empire. All of the ships detected the powerful energy fluctuations that Souta was creating.
Inside one of the empire's ships, a general was looking at the projection with a grave expression. He kept hearing the alarm in his ship.
*Warning!*
*Warning!*
*Warning!*
"So that's the famed Souta, the leader of the Liberation White Army."
The general muttered as his heart was pounding. This was his first time encountering the famous Souta, yet Souta's power was outside of his expectation. The higher-ups already said that they shouldn't underestimate Souta and he did that. He raised his image of Souta in his mind but it was still enough. Souta was still stronger than what he had thought.
"Can a human and demi really possessed such strength...?"
Then, he saw a huge wave of energy burst out. Energy shoots towards them and it easily disintegrated several ships in front of them. It swallowed and destroyed everything. Nothing escapes from this powerful energy.
Boom!
Souta used a quarter of his best energy in this [Bestrou]. This [Bestrou] was several times more powerful than when he used it before. In the past, he could only use [Bestrou] because he drunk the monster potion but it's different now. He had a monster orb and could easily conjure this powerful attack that was unique to a monster.
To make sure that his allies wouldn't get caught up with his attack, he maintained distance from them. Still, the energy wave from the [Bestrou] melted the surface of the nearest ships around him.
After that, Souta quickly used his energy and controlled the [Gravitational Ball] spell. He used the power of gravity to pull the ship towards Planet Astley. With his full power, he could easily lift a hundred thousand tons object using the [Gravitational Ball]. So a single mother ship was nothing to him.
"Go!!"
The ship accelerated forward and it gained speed several times than before because of the gravity. It zoomed forward and it passed the field of smoke caused by the destruction of hundreds of empire's ships.
After a few seconds, they passed the formation of the empire and enter the atmosphere of Planet Astley. Because of this, their speed increased once again and they became a meteorite that crashed on the surface of the planet causing a powerful explosion that shook the land several kilometers away from them.
Boom!
Jamine and Lydia looked at this scene.
"I'll leave everything to you, Souta."
Inside the ship, Torkez slowly opened his eyes and looked around. The whole room was filled with smoke and the lights were shut down. He easily understood that the energy reactor of the ship took some damage.
He stood up and patted his clothes. "Everyone, are you okay?" He asked in a loud voice.
"Yeah," Franklin replied to him and he waved his hand while using his liquefied mana to disperse the smoke in the room.
The two saw that the others only received bruises on their body. It's not deep so they were fine. For their power level, this kind of bruise was nothing.
"It's impossible for the ship to be completely fine after that impact. I guess that Souta prevented the ship from collapsing." Franklin said as he stretched out his hand.
"Let's get out of here."
The dragon said in monster language and he shoots a ball of energy on the ceiling. The ball of energy created a huge hole in the ceiling and he flew out of the ship.
Franklin, Torkez, and the other followed the dragon as they jumped out of the huge hole.
They saw Souta was floating in the mid-air while looking towards the east with a serious expression.
"What's wrong, Souta?" Torkez asked.
"According to Lydia, the royal capital is in this direction and with my enhanced vision, I could see a glimpse of a huge city," Souta replied to him. He then added, "We can't count on our ship anymore. We had to move as fast as possible or the army will come here to check if we're still alive."
"We have no problem with it but I have something to say," Franklin said as he turned to Souta.
"Speak," Souta said as he moved his eyes and glanced at Franklin's face.
"We're going to capital, right? I suggest that we formed a team. A different team and this team's main goal is to divert the attention of the soldiers of the empire by creating chaos." Franklin said.
"Oh, that's a good suggestion but I think you just want to fight and kill some people," Souta said in a cold tone.
"Yeah, but my plan is good, right?" Franklin smiled.
"Fine. I'll just take Torkez with me. Dragon and the rest should follow Franklin." Souta sighed as he knew that Franklin's suggestion was a good one. He couldn't deny it.
"Yes, sir!!" The other people nodded at the same time.
In outer space...
The Liberation White Army was being pushed back by the relentless attack of the empire. Luckily, the reinforcement from the other organizations has arrived on time.
They somehow managed to hold on to their life.
Alice has arrived with the forces that she brought in her journey. As soon as she arrived, she immediately tried to contact Souta but no one answered her so she called Lydia, one of the upper echelons of the Liberation White Army.
Although, she only met Lydia in Planet Eidin once. Lydia was the only one that knew that she was Souta's friend.
Lydia was glad when she received Alice's call. Souta said that Alice came from the Great World Imperium like him so Alice must be powerful like him. Her strength would be a great help in fighting the empire.
Alice entered the ship. She saw Isabella, Lydia, and a blonde woman. This woman must be Jasmine, one of the higher-ups of the Liberation Army.
After greeting them, she quickly asked about the situation and the answer she received was quite bad. Their forces were losing every minute and she also learned about Souta entering the Planet Astley with a few forces. Well, she already heard this plan from Souta.
"Fine... I'll do my best."
Alice sighed. Souta always left troublesome things to her. Well, there's nothing she could do with it as she knew that the things that Souta do must be harder than this one. Also, he's her leader.
