[601-800] THE EVOLUTION OF A GOBLIN TO THE PEAK

Chapter 758: Opening of the Ancient Ruin

White Wheat City was one of the three cities that various overlords wanted to take over. The City Lord had perished in Bland City and the overlord, Prime Night Hall, tried to control the city even without their leader. The Prime Night Hall succeeded in controlling the city but the problem didn’t stop. Right now, they were facing several overlord organizations that wanted to take over their city.

Without their City Lord, the strongest expert, they couldn’t hope to fight the City Lords of other cities. Luckily, the battle didn’t reach the point where Shackled Realm experts needed to appear, so they could somehow handle the enemies. They also received support from other cities in the dark. That’s why they could last longer.

Vann, the appointed leader of Prime Night Hall, became the City Lord. He was the strongest in the city aside from the previous City lord.

Right now, he was in the middle of his office facing back and forth trying to find a way to overcome their current crisis.

He was a Shackled Realm expert but he knew that his strength wasn’t enough to intimidate the other cities. Compared to his predecessor, his strength was nothing.

Suddenly, the door was slammed open and a man rushed inside.

“S-Sir, an army is attacking us again!!” The man reported as he tried to catch his breath.

“Again?!! An army of five hundred people just attacked us yesterday and we lose one hundred men!! And now, another one is attacking us!!” Vann gritted his teeth. He clenched his fists tightly as veins bulged out of his muscles.

“It is because of those Dragon Council bastards! Trying to protect the Mine Valley! Yet, they attacked us!!”

He knew that not everyone would want to protect the Mine Valley. Joining the Dragon Council? That’s nothing but a fleeting dream. If the City Lords knew that they would be bound by contract then they would be glad that they didn’t join the council. Some of them would be glad to overturn the entire Mine Valley if given a chance so why would they join the Dragon Council?

So the Dragon Council became a thorn in their eyes.

Vann went out of his office. He quickly arrived at the city wall and saw the approaching enemy army.

“What the hell is that?!”

He muttered subconsciously as he stared at the enemy army with wide eyes. The soldiers on the city wall had mixed expressions.

“S-Shit! Are they even demi?! Monster!!”

The enemy army was approaching their city in a domineering manner. The army approximately had three hundred men.

Their appearance was out of this world. They were humanoid but each one looked like a massive flesh covered in various sharp spikes. Some of them were even riding those non-humanoid monsters. The energy they possessed wasn’t strong but they carried an intimidating aura. Bloodlust seeped out and filled the atmosphere.

The soldiers and the citizens of the White Wheat City could feel the intense bloodlust in the air. The killing intent made their hair stand on its end.

The enemy was approaching…

Elder Guan stared at the huge walls. He was the one who led the army of Astros to attack this city. He glanced at his left side and right side.

Yuko and Yenxa were here to take over the city. They would fight an all-out battle to complete the task given to them by their Lord.

“Everyone prepare yourself.” Elder Guan said as he narrowed his eyes. His voice wasn’t loud but everyone behind him heard it.

The army of Astros used their parasite ability to the fullest to boost their strength. All of them were B-rank and A-rank experts. Elder Guan even brought dozens of S-rank witches to raise their chances in this raid.
