The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 840 Unexpected Visitor

Chapter 840 Unexpected Visitor

[Investiture of the Dark] also gives him corrosion properties. It was the same as the [Negative Land]. It was a field-type spell that debuffs all enemies that entered the field. It corrodes the enemies decreasing their movement speed by twenty percent and slowly chipping their health until they die. It also decreased the enemies' resistance to the dark attribute by twenty percent and rendering the light attribute's effectiveness by twenty percent.
Within this field, Souta could detect all the enemies and know what they were doing. It was just a bonus effect since he could already detect them through their blood. The decaying effect of this spell could render all the enemies' dark attributes to zero percent if their elemental power was two stages below the user.
In short, Souta would have absolute control of darkness within this field.
[Negative Land] Level 8 and [Investiture of the Dark] Level 8 would be a great addition to his skill set. It would increase his combat prowess to a certain level.
Aside from these two skills, he also learned [Black Hole] and [Darkness Bite]. Although they were at level 1, they were still high-level skills that would help him greatly in the battle.
[Black Hole] was a super offensive Tier 3 Spell. Upon casting this spell, a black hole would appear out of thin air and suck all the matter within its surrounding. It wasn't an ordinary black hole since it could even suck energies like mana or elemental power.
Its crushing power was on a different level.
[Darkness Bite] was a melee combat art. It was a powerful attack that could decrease the target's darkness resistance by fifty percent and almost ignore the physical defense of the target causing true damage.
While [Negative Land] and [Investiture of the Dark] were buff and debuff, the other two were offensive skills.
'Also, for the Forbidden Spell, I needed [Negative Land] and [Black Hole] so that I could build the same spells that I have in the past. These two would be the foundation of my forbidden spells.'
Souta rubbed his chin. He slightly understood the chain of forbidden spells so if he learned it, maybe he didn't need to use some of his skill points to learn as many as could just to unlock the forbidden spell function. He could probably recreate all of his spells in the past manually.
As for the sublimation of combat arts, it was easier than a forbidden spell so he didn't need to worry about it for a while.
'This should be good... It will take a lot of time before I could promote my class to Rank 3 just like in the past. I would need to complete several chain quests.'
Souta shook his head and turned his mind to another topic. His name resounded through the Hall Plains. He was called the Blood Lightning Monster, the Lord of the Hall Plains. After all, he was the one who stopped No God Emperor from unsealing himself.
A lot of God realm powerhouses were paying attention to this matter so it was inevitable that he would gather the attention of various organizations. The only thing that was holding them back was the name behind him, the Olympus. He was a warrior from Athen's Champion, and Athen's Champion was one of the god-legions in Olympus.
If not for No God Emperor, just the fact that a warrior from Olympus had conquered a land beyond their own would create a complicated diplomatic issue among the other territories. Olympus had an excuse, they saved the Hall Plains and prevented the awakening of No God Emperor. There's also a problem with the demon so the other territories could only turn their heads away from this.
But if Olympus extends their lands once again then the other factions would do the same. They would collide and fight each other.
'As the main character of this event, a lot of people have heard of my name. They aren't going to bother me since I'm just a mere fourth stage in their eyes. If they wanted to eliminate me, they wouldn't bother themselves instead they would send their subordinates.'
Souta concluded. He needed to watch his movements for now since a lot of people were paying attention to him. Especially the organizations on the same level as Red Matter Association.
Souta was walking when he noticed strange fluctuations of mana. He looked around and sensed that all the people in Astros have stopped moving.
"Charm...?"
He narrowed his eyes. This was the same scenario in White Line City back then. At that time, everyone has been charmed by some unknown person.
Even he was affected at that time but it was different right now, he was far stronger than before. Souta didn't even need to use his energy to break through the charm. It simply had no effect on him.
"Who's there? Show yourself if you don't I'll force you out."
Souta said in a low voice but his words reverberated throughout the entire Astros. He could sense all the people with their blood so he noticed that someone was acting strange.
A woman walked out of the corner. She had beautiful blue color eyes and shoulder-length hair of the same color. She had fair skin and wearing a white attire with green patterns. She had a pair of cat ears and several fluffy tails sticking out of her clothes.
"I mean no harm to you."
The woman said calmly as she raised both of her hands.
Souta stared at the woman and quickly saw through her body. Her mana pool was completely solidified and she already broke the first great shackle.
This woman was strong...
He didn't expect it.
It means that she was holding back at that time in White Line City.
"What do you want?" Souta asked in a cold tone. He slowly circulated his energy and raised his guard. If he fought here, he would bring the battle into the sky. He couldn't fight here since a lot of people would become casualties.
The woman smiled and brought her hands down. She said, "As expected, you already saw through my strength. Don't worry, I'm not here to fight."
"Then, why are you here? Also, you've charmed my people so how do you expect me to treat you? If we aren't in this place I would have already swung my sword in your neck." Souta said to her in a strong tone.
"So fierce... My name is Layla." The woman introduced herself. She slightly bowed before she continued, "I'm just here to tell you one thing. Be careful and watch your back. Even if you have the entire Athen's Champion behind you, the Wingless Crow will find an opportunity to slice that head of yours."
"Wingless Crow... If I'm not wrong, you are one of them." Souta said. He already expected this outcome the moment he decided to demolish the Wingless Crow branch in White Line City.
"If I'm not one of them. I just joined the branch because I wanted to know a little bit about their plan." The woman named Layla said.
"Why are you telling me all of this?" Souta asked.
"It's simple, by defeating No God Emperor's vessel you helped us move our plan greatly. If you aren't there, then we would be forced to show ourselves." Layla explained.
"Who are you?" Souta asked.
"You don't need to know about that. You will know it in the future. I'm sure that we will meet again." Layla said as the smile on her face grew wider. "Just don't forget that you helped us greatly this time albeit unintentionally. We appreciate it so I came here to warn you about the people that wanted your head. They are coming for you."
"So it's not only the Wingless Crow..." Souta said but before he could even receive an answer, the woman before him had already disappeared.
"She left..."
The people around him have returned to their senses. Some of the higher-level people realized that they have been charmed but those with low power levels didn't even realize what just happened.
"Don't worry, it's nothing..."
Souta said and his voice traveled throughout the entire Astros. They needed to calm down so he decided to tell them that it was nothing and they didn't need to worry at all. Even the warriors from the legion needed to calm down or else they would think that someone tried to attack this base.
ƥαṇdαηθνε| Souta stretched his arms and thought about the words that the woman who called herself Layla said.
'So other organizations are lurking in the Hall Plains... Even if I didn't move they will finish Yenxa to stop No God Emperor. However, I can't let that happen. I can't let anyone kill Yenxa. I have to take responsibility and kill her with my own hands.'
Souta shook his head. Topics about Yenxa would only make his emotion fluctuate and it's not good for the current him. He should think about other things first.
He stared at the system first before he sighed. His rewards weren't as good as he imagined. After all, he didn't even trigger the special quest of the Chain Quest so his rewards didn't increase at all.
In his previous Chain Quests, Souta always triggered special quests.
Well, it's not bad considering that he earned a bunch of skill points. He even promoted his class to Rank 1 Great Battle Mage. His two chosen skills were also level 8 so he was almost halfway to Rank 2 Great Battle Mage.
