The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 349 - Battle at the Moon Tower: [Earth Elemental Golem Summoning]

Curdova charged towards Souta but he suddenly felt the change in gravity. It was trying to crush his body into meat paste.

His energy burst out of his body and it protected him from the extreme gravity that was trying to crush him.

”You need more than this if you want to stop me!!”

He shouted as he moved his body forward.

Swoosh!

Souta wanted to pour more mana in his [Gravitational Ball] spell but he reserved his mana for his other spell. He will just use the versatility of his style to counter this man and wait for Yuko to come here.

Since she evolved and became a third evolution monster, he knew that the people below didnʼt have a chance to win against her power.

He could actually summon Yuko here but he wanted Yuko to help the other first so that they would arrive here safely.

Curdova arrived in front of him and swiftly slashed his halberd diagonally.

Clang!

Souta raised his sword and blocked it before he lifted his feet. He then kicked his opponent to the side.

Swoosh!

Curdova simply took a step backward and avoided his kick. He then comes forward while thrusting his halberd at the same time.

”Damn!!”

Souta tried to parry it but he couldnʼt completely do it. The tip of the halberd caused a large cut at the part above his elbow.

Blood spurted out of it and he tightened his muscles, ignoring the blood, as he took a step back to distance himself away from Curdova. At the same time, black tentacles rose from the ground trying to block Curdova.

Curdovaʼs strength has decreased because of the effect of the [Dark Cloud Hunting] spell. Also, the gravity field was slowing him down but even with all of that debuff, he still could dominate Souta in a battle. Thatʼs why he was fearless. He fearlessly chased after Souta even without knowing his tricks.

ʼYour opponent this time is an expert at close combat fighting. He already adapted to your fighting style and could keep up with the [Shadow Ball] combo.ʼ Sayaʼs voice sounded in his mind.

ʼYeah, I canʼt believe that his battle instinct is this great and no one knew him except for the people in this city.ʼ Souta replied to her. In terms of pure combat skills, this one the strongest among all the enemies that he had fought so far.

He could only guess that Curdovaʼs mastery over his weapon was level 9 or level 10.

To think that thereʼs a person with this much battle sense in this city.

Souta used various of his spells and tried to fight back. His figure kept flickering and the same for Curdova. They were colliding at high speed as shockwaves swept out every time they clashed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Wounds started to appear on Soutaʼs body. He really couldnʼt match this guy even with all of his high-grade equipment. Still, he managed to avoid getting hit in his vital parts. Thatʼs the one thing he doesnʼt want to happen.

ʼDo you still can keep up?ʼ Saya asked him.

ʼYeah, I had various skills and spells that I could use...ʼ Souta replied to her as he wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth.

Swoosh!

He moved back as Curdova chased after him with an intent to kill. Bloodl.u.s.t was seeping out of his body.

Curdova was also feeling troubled. He was frustrated that he couldnʼt deal the finishing blow to his opponent. No matter what he did, his opponent would always slipped in his grasp when he was about to kill.

Every second, he was growing impatient. He wanted to kill this man as soon as possible and witness the glorious awakening of their weapon that would rival the True Godʼs Holy Kingdom.

His attacks were hitting his opponent but it was not too deep. Itʼs fine with this as long as he kept doing it he would win this battle. If one cut wasnʼt enough then how about a thousand cuts.

”Why donʼt you just go down?!”

Curdova roared as he slashed his weapon horizontally.

Clang!

Souta blocked it while gritting his teeth. Blocking his enemyʼs attack would be out of his choice next. He already blocked hundreds of Curdovaʼs attacks so he could feel his muscles getting sore and numb.

ʼThe effect of [Possession] would disappear soon...ʼ Saya reminded him.

If the power boost disappeared then Souta wouldnʼt be able to keep up with Curdova. The difference in their strength was so large.

ʼOkay...ʼ Souta nodded while parrying and dodging his opponentʼs relentless attack.

Lightning appeared around Curdovaʼs halberd as he thrust it forward aiming at his opponentʼs c.h.e.s.t.

[Shadow Ball]!!

Ten black balls appeared on his palm and it flew around the room but the halberd in Curdovaʼs hand flashed brightly.

All ten black balls exploded as Curdovaʼs halberd strike it accurately.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Souta opened his eyes widely when he saw this. He didnʼt think that Curdova would strike his [Shadow Ball] spell.

”Ahhh!!”

Curdova roared as he thrust his spear forward.

[Swirling Wind Thrust]!!

Swoosh!

Souta realized that he couldnʼt avoid this attack when it was this close. Itʼs possible if he was a dozen meters away from Curdova but at a short distance... He couldnʼt avoid it as the powerful wind was preventing him from jumping away. It was s.u.c.k.i.n.g him towards the tip of the halberd.

He had no choice but to block it. He tightened his grip on his sword and channeled a huge amount of mana.

The tip of the halberd arrived in front of his c.h.e.s.t. Souta quickly used his sword to deflect it.

”Argh!!”

He felt the powerful force behind it as blood flow out of his mouth. The sharp winds of this attack caused a few dozen cuts on his body.

”Damn! Just go away!!”

He shouted as he used every ounce of his strength to deflect the halberd.

Swoosh!

Boom!

Souta was blown away and he rolled on the ground a few times before he stopped.

He stood up and put his hand on a hole just below his c.h.e.s.t. Blood kept pouring out of this wound. He could guess that in just a few minutes he would go down.

ʼThis is really bad...ʼ He thought as he narrowed his eyes. If the worse scenario was to come then Souta would use the [Soul Blood Mode] to stop this guy.

ʼJust do what you want to do, Souta. Iʼm here to back you up. If you were to pass out I will not let that guy kill you under my presence.ʼ Saya said to him.

ʼThanks for that...ʼ Souta replied to her as he smiled wryly.

”Destroying the True Godʼs Holy Kingdom is my lifelong wish... Just because that country is a great country doesnʼt mean that they could just destroy the small countries around them.” Curdova said as he walked towards Souta. ”I was a Saint Knight of that kingdom.”

”Was?” Souta frowned when he heard Curdovaʼs words. He knew the meaning of the Saint Knight of the Holy Kingdom.

Saint Knights was an elite group of knights that was tasked to guard the holy maiden of the church. Each one possessed great power above an A-rank powerhouse.

”Yes, but not now. In the past, Iʼm the captain of the Saint Knights. I have absolute power just below the gods of that kingdom. It means that Iʼve attained Hero-rank before.” Curdova said as he glanced at Cl.u.s.ter who was suspended in the mid-air. The hands of the metallic figure were closed to her as if it was grabbing her body.

He then turned his head to Souta and said, ”Thatʼs why you canʼt defeat me. I have vast experience when I was still a Hero-rank.”

”Hehe... Hero-rank?” Souta smiled as he grabbed his sword.

”This is the end! I will use the power of this girl to end your life!!” Curdova said as he tapped his halberd on the ground.

After a few seconds, the whole room shook heavily as Cl.u.s.terʼs enormous mana spun around it.

Boom!

”Come forth!!”

Rocks stacked together and it turned into humanoid golems. The golem was human size but Souta could discern that this group was stronger than the golems below.

ʼThis is the [Earth Elemental Golem Summoning]...ʼ Saya recognized this spell. Not just her, Souta too recognized these humanoid golems.

ʼThis is really really bad...ʼ Souta forced a smile on his face.

The group of humanoid golems was releasing mana that could rival any B-rank powerhouse.
