The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peakchapter 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 didn't 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 couldn't 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.

Curdova's 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. That's why he was fearless. He fearlessly chased after Souta even without knowing his tricks.

'Your 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.' Saya's voice sounded in his mind.

'Yeah, I can't believe that his battle instinct is this great and no one knew him except for the people in this city.' Souta replied to her. In terms of pure combat skills, this one the strongest among all the enemies that he had fought so far.

Yeah, the battle sense and instinct of Curdova was higher than the seven-circle officers that he had fought before with Randolf. But in terms of pure stats and firepower, the seven-circle officer was the strongest.

He could only guess that Curdova's mastery over his weapon was level 9 or level 10.

To think that there's 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 Souta's body. He really couldn't match this guy even with all of his high-grade equipment. Still, he managed to avoid getting hit in his vital parts. That's the one thing he doesn't want to happen.

'Do you still can keep up?' Saya asked him.

'Yeah, I had various skills and spells that I could use...' 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. Bloodlust was seeping out of his body.

Curdova was also feeling troubled. He was frustrated that he couldn't 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 God's Holy Kingdom.

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

"Why don't you just go down?!"

Curdova roared as he slashed his weapon horizontally.

Clang!

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

'The effect of [Possession] would disappear soon...' Saya reminded him.

If the power boost disappeared then Souta wouldn't be able to keep up with Curdova. The difference in their strength was so large.

'Okay...' Souta nodded while parrying and dodging his opponent's relentless attack.

[Thunder Thruster]!!

Lightning appeared around Curdova's halberd as he thrust it forward aiming at his opponent's chest.

[Shadow Ball]!!

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

All ten black balls exploded as Curdova's halberd strike it accurately.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Souta opened his eyes widely when he saw this. He didn't think that Curdova would strike his [Shadow Ball] spell.

"Ahhh!!"

Curdova roared as he thrust his spear forward.

[Swirling Wind Thrust]!!

Wind spun around the tip of the halberd like a razor. It was sucking everything around it.

Swoosh!

Souta realized that he couldn't avoid this attack when it was this close. It's possible if he was a dozen meters away from Curdova but at a short distance... He couldn't avoid it as the powerful wind was preventing him from jumping away. It was sucking 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 chest. 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!

The halberd flashed and blood spurt out. It flew towards the ground and caused a loud explosion.

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 chest. Blood kept pouring out of this wound. He could guess that in just a few minutes he would go down.

'This is really bad...' 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.

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

'Thanks for that...' Souta replied to her as he smiled wryly.

"Destroying the True God's Holy Kingdom is my lifelong wish... Just because that country is a great country doesn't 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 Curdova's 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, I'm the captain of the Saint Knights. I have absolute power just below the gods of that kingdom. It means that I've attained Hero-rank before." Curdova said as he glanced at Cluster 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, "That's why you can't 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 Cluster's 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.

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

'This is really really bad...' Souta forced a smile on his face.

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