The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peakchapter 809: chaos in hall plains: jungle of defamation

Esquin was staring at the star system when he noticed something. He looked around and narrowed his eyes. There was a sensation that someone was observing him. It was faint but it didn't escape his extreme senses.

"Someone is watching me...?"

Esquin silently gathered his energy and it caused the space around him to vibrate strongly. Cracks appeared out of nowhere as the planets, stars, and other celestial bodies with the protection of the crimson net trembled as if they were about to explode.

It wasn't the group of gods before. He was sure that Hermes, Njord, and the others wouldn't fight him in this place since they didn't want to affect the crimson net. So who was spying on him?

Is it one of the Commandments?

If that's the case then it would be a little problematic but he wasn't afraid.

Ohm!

A silhouette appeared after a long time. It was a woman with three pairs of majestic wings behind her. She also has small wings on the side of her head that cover her face. Her golden brown hair was flowing into the space, emitting a luster that calmed down the space. The woman was holding a glowing trumpet in her hands.

"Gabriel...? And that trumpet... You?" Esquin looked gloomy.

"Gluttony... It's time for you to vanish." Gabriel said in a soft voice. Her voice traveled through the vacuum of space and it healed all the cracks that were caused by Esquin's presence.

Ohm!

Dozens of holy spears appeared behind her and quickly shot toward the Ruler of Gluttony. Each spear contained a vast amount of power that could potentially annihilate everything.

Swoosh!

Esquin couldn't avoid the spears. It pierced his body as his blood gushed out. He coughed and smiled at Gabriel.

"Gabriel, it seems that you know me... You wouldn't come here if you didn't know about my past identity."

Esquin laughed as a streak of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He then looked up and stared at the vastness of space.

"I'm sure right now. The one who is spying on me isn't Gabriel but it's another person. I don't know who you are but I will find you."

With those words, his body dissipated into tiny particles leaving the golden spears alone in space.

"A clone..." Gabriel muttered and she recalled Esquin's words.

Someone was spying on him?

She couldn't help but look around and scanned all the galaxies within the area to verify his words. But she found nothing after a few seconds of scanning. There was nothing in the fifty-five galaxies around except for a few planets with mana density.

She shook her head and looked at the star system covered by a crimson net. The state of God's Continent right now wasn't good. Gods were moving frequently and mortals were the ones who suffered every time a god fought.

While the other factions were busy with the demon army in the south, the angel's target wasn't those demons. They wanted to locate Esquin and stopped the plan of the Deadly Sins.

"Gluttony, does he want to free the No God Emperor or not? I don't know how it is related to their plan."

...

Somewhere in God's Continent, Esquin was sitting on a throne. He opened his eyes and revealed a light glow that contained enormous power.

He muttered, "Gabriel, she destroyed my clone. It seems that the angels are currently keeping me in check. Well, it doesn't matter."

The most important thing was the one who was spying on him. He was sure that it wasn't Gabriel. It must be another being at the level of a god.

"It should be one of the gods that were hiding in different dimensions. I will deal with them soon."

Esquin closed his eyes once again.

The events in Imperium were getting out of hand. The last time was when Imperium cried for an unknown reason. It was strange and the whole world was enveloped by a natural disaster. The good thing was that it only lasted for a day.

In an unknown place...

The man with a black hair was sitting on a chair with a serious look on his face. A man with pink hair was standing behind him. He also had the same expression.

After a few seconds of silence, the pink-haired man opened his mouth, "That man, Gluttony, managed to sense your calculation."

"Yeah, it's a bit unexpected but he really sensed my calculation." The man on the chair nodded. "He sensed it but he couldn't sense my location. No one in the universe knows about our location."

Even if several gods flipped different dimensions, they wouldn't be able to find a single clue.

"Then, why did you try to calculate him? You know that gods are sensitive if someone is prying on them. Did you find out if he would free the No God Emperor?" The pink-haired man asked.

"Yeah, he will not free the No God Emperor. I can see where he came from and someone from the angels already stopped him." The man on the chair said.

"I see... The generation of gods in this cycle is strong. The case about the No God Emperor is unprecedented." The pink-haired man said.

"Of course, in all the cycles that I've seen the No God Emperor is the first one."

"The No God Emperor already took over the vessel. He will proceed to free the main body. What do you think will happen to the variable?"

"There are three variables in that piece of land. There's no need to worry. As long as it's not the main body of the No God Emperor, I will put my trust in them." The man on the chair said with a faint smile on his face.

"Well, each one of them received their own blessings from the Imperium so they are the strongest on their levels. But we are talking about the No God Emperor here. That god is unfathomable." The pink-haired man said.

"We'll see what will happen soon. We can't lose any more variables much less three of them at the same time." The man on the chair said.

"They are enclosed so outsiders will not be able to provide them any help. They had to shatter the crimson net first but shattering it means freeing the No God Emperor." The pink-haired paused for a moment before he continued, "So it means that the variables are on their own."

"It's not that they are hopeless. The Imperium strengthened them after the death of one of the variables. Although it is too low, they still have a chance." The man on the chair said.

Bang! Bang!

Eztein and Franklin moved at high speed as they clashed with Drayrin. Both of them went to Drayrin's side and swiftly launched a fierce attack.

Drayrin grabbed Eztein's spear and kicked him in the stomach before he turned to Franklin and threw Eztein in his direction.

Franklin changed his posture as he caught Eztein and threw him to the side. Eztein stabilized his footing before he bent his knees and launched himself toward Drayrin like a missile once again.

At the same time, Franklin was already exchanging high-speed blows with their opponent. Eztein joined and it became a total chaos.

Boom!

Shockwave after shockwave was sweeping out every second. The area around them was already in ruins because none of them were holding back. Their elemental energy was flaring up enclosing the whole field.

"Old man, can you still go?" Eztein asked Franklin.

"Don't ask me that question. I'm always ready to fight." Franklin said.

Franklin was at the front while Eztein was supporting him. Sometimes they would change their position so that each of them could catch a breath while fighting the powerful Drayrin, the culprit behind the destruction of the White Wheat City.

"Still have a time to talk, huh? So annoying..." Drayrin said while dodging and blocking the attacks from his two opponents. He then smiled, "You guys didn't have a chance to win from the beginning."

"What do you mean?" Eztein narrowed his eyes. He had a bad feeling about this.

"Don't mind him! Just focus on your attack!" Franklin said.

The next moment, Eztein widened his eyes. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Franklin's wrist. Using his strength, he threw his comrade to the sky.

Swoosh!

In the next second, a bunch of woods emerged from the ground. The woods were flexible and agile. It quickly wrapped around Eztein's body before he could even escape.

Ohm!

"What is this...? My power..." Eztein muttered as he felt that his strength was leaving his body.

Franklin, who was thrown into the sky, narrowed his eyes. He wanted to save Eztein but hundreds of woods quickly rushed at him.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Franklin tried his best to avoid the woods while destroying some of them at the same time. He slightly turned his head and noticed something.

"This...?!"

His eyes were filled with shock. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

Drayrin smiled. "As you can see, there's no more hope for people who oppose us."

Thousands of trees emerged from the ground. It turned the entire central region into a vast jungle. Each tree was like a machine that was after all the living creature in the whole region. The trees had different sizes. The smallest one was ten meters tall while the largest one was seventy meters.

"This is the Jungle of Defamation!"
