The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 1069: Destruction of the Ekatoe City: Reinforcement



"Tell me how to completely shut down the barrier formation. There's no point in resisting since you people can't even defeat me, even with the formation suppressing my strength," Ferdin said to Torkez.

Well, he was right. This was still in his suppressed state. If he wasn't suppressed, there was nothing they could do.

They would be obliterated in an instant.

"I already told you, you're the one who did it," Torkez replied, pausing as he pointed at the scene in the hole. He added, "You killed my people, and it prevented the formation from receiving energy. I thought you deliberately killed them for that reason, but it seems you're just stupid."

Veins popped on Ferdin's forehead. "What did you say?!"

"The timing was right. I was going to ask my people to stop supplying energy to the formation, but you killed them... So now, you have to pay for it," Torkez said.

"Me? Pay for it?" Ferdin stepped forward. His energy slowly rose, putting pressure on Torkez's entire body.

"Now!!" Torkez shouted.

Swoosh!!

Alice watched as the entire Guardian Fortress was engulfed by light. The enemy, along with Torkez and a few other survivors, disappeared.

Huff... Huff... Huff...

Alice forced herself to stand and surveyed the corpses around her. Some of the people who couldn't evacuate the city in time had fled to the Guardian Fortress, yet this had happened. They were all dead.

Her heart felt heavy in this moment.

Even if they had managed to repel the enemies, the damage done to the city was immense. So many lives had been lost.

She had been to Selnes Country, and the situation there was strikingly similar.

"They're here."

Alice looked up at the fire in the hole of the barrier and saw the Guardian Fortress appear below it.

A line of flame shot straight toward the Guardian Fortress, splitting it in two. Boom!!!

Alice raised her hand as the Guardian Fortress exploded.

"Torkez..."

She shook her head. She had been sure that Torkez would make it out alive since they were there. She glanced at her hand and noticed that her parasite was reaching its limit.

"I still have energy left, so I can still fight, but the parasite won't last much longer. I can do it." Alice muttered to herself. She gathered her energy and flew toward the others to help.

In the sky, several figures descended from different parts of the city. This would escalate the battles around the city once more.

However, a figure emerged from the fire. She had striking red hair, and she was the one who had split the Guardian Fortress.

She was Erkigal Flaem.

"When I received the SOS signal, I thought it was a drill, but someone really attacked Ekatoe City while the Blood Lightning Monster was away," Erkigal said, looking down.

Debris from the Guardian Fortress fell to the ground, causing dozens of small explosions. But Ferdin remained in the air, staring at Erkigal.

Erkigal glanced left and right. "So it's up to me now. The rest already went down."

"I see... That's why that man earlier said he planned to stop providing energy to the

formation. It's because of this," Ferdin muttered, his frown deepening.

That's right. Anyone who didn't belong to Ekatoe City would be suppressed by the [Five Element Barrier Formation], even if they were from the allied Dragon Council. That was how Souta had set it up.

"They really are prepared," Erkigal muttered as she glanced at the center of the city.

The Nine-Headed Hydra was engaged in a fierce battle with a powerful, unknown man. Although she was confident in her strength, Erkigal knew she wasn't a match for the Nine- Headed Hydra. Yet, that unknown man was fighting the Hydra while also being suppressed by the barrier.

It was fortunate that the barrier was still active, even though it was suppressing her strength

as well. The suppression had lessened, but it was still in effect and wasn't going to shut down for a while.

"Do you think you can stop us?" Ferdin asked.

Erkigal shifted her attention back to him and laughed. "Might as well see for yourself."

With those words, she charged at Ferdin.

Ferdin snorted and threw a punch.

Boom!!

The tide of the battle had shifted with the arrival of the Dragon Council.

...

In the south.

An explosion rang out as a figure descended between Vashno's group and Arie.

"Who?" Vashno narrowed his eyes.

Eztein, Franklin, and the others also became wary.

The smoke slowly dissipated, revealing a woman.

"Let me handle this. I'm Hono Flaem, the Clan Leader of the Flaem Clan."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The woman introduced herself, glancing at Eztein and the others before turning her attention

back to Arie.

"Who are you?" Arie gritted her teeth.

"I already introduced myself. Didn't you hear it?" Hono replied, taking a step forward.

Flames surged from her feet, causing the temperature to rise.

Vashno looked at the mages and said, "Let's go. We can't stay here any longer."

The mages nodded, and they quickly moved Vashno, Eztein, and Franklin away. A battle was about to begin, and they were too exhausted to participate. Staying in the fray would only make things more difficult.

Hono smiled when she sensed that Vashno's group had left. She said, "Let me guess, part of

the Gluttony Army, right?"

Arie gritted her teeth in anger and waved her hand, firing dozens of rays of light.

"Don't get in my way!!"

The rays shot straight toward Hono, but before they could reach her, a mantle of fire

appeared, blocking the attack.

"You know, you people destroyed my country-Selnes Country. The Gluttony Army and all its followers should pay the price. So, I've decided... I will not let you die easily," Hono said, her

voice cold.

She remembered all too well how the Selnes Country became a battlefield, resulting in the deaths of countless citizens of her homeland.

...

In the north.

The battle had erupted into full-blown war with the arrival of Doranjan's monster corps and

the other Heads of the Dragon Council.

They clashed fiercely with the golems.

ROAR!!

Doranjan let out a mighty roar as he unleashed a powerful [Bestrou].

Boom!!

Several dozen golems advanced forward, only to be intercepted by a large group of monsters. Yuko and the other witches finally had a breather with the arrival of reinforcements. The

pressure on them eased as they now had allies to help in the fight.

Various attacks filled the air, resulting in a series of explosions.

The entire area had transformed into a small-scale warzone.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Isabella moved swiftly through the air. Her presence was nearly undetectable as she appeared

near the head of one of the golems.

She placed her hand inside her pocket and quickly threw out a potion.

The potion exploded on the golem, creating a green mucus that temporarily immobilized it.

"Now!" Isabella commanded before disappearing from her position.

She knew the golem was strong, and the effect wouldn't last more than a second. It would easily break free, but that was all the time they needed.

The witches heard her words and wasted no time. They immediately launched a barrage of combat arts and spells, bombarding the golem as it broke free from the restraint.

Boom! Boom!

Isabella moved swiftly toward the other golems, hoping to lessen the burden on her allies in

the battle. Her potion was a powerful asset and one of her greatest sources of strength. She

excelled with it.

She landed in a high position, several dozen meters behind the two people facing Walfen, and

stared ahead.

"That's the main culprit," she muttered, looking at Walfen's face.

Walfen, the creator of these golems, stared at the scene with a frown on his face. He wanted to rush in and quickly kill those people, but someone was blocking his path. "You! Do you think you can stop me?" Walfen said, glaring at the two people below him.

The two people were man and woman-the Eight Head and Third Head of the Dragon

Council.

"Eh~ how can you know if we haven't tried?" the Eight Head grinned, eyeing the boy on the shoulder of the giant golem.

"Then die!" Walfen said coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant golem swung its massive hand. The Eight Head and

Third Head immediately vanished from their positions before the golem's hand could even

land on them.

Bang!!

The Eight Head appeared above and threw his fist, covered in powerful energy.

Boom!!

The giant golem staggered, but Walfen quickly controlled it to swing its hand again.

However, the Third Head was already behind him. She waved her hand and conjured a tier 3

spell. Ohm!!

A dense barrage of sharp ice spears rained down from the sky, forcing Walfen to defend

himself. Though the ice spears were strong, they barely damaged the giant golem.

It was too tough.

The defensive capabilities of the golem were higher than they had expected. "Now you've done it," Walfen glared at the two of them.

His energy surged once again, causing the surroundings to transform.
