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

Chapter 796: Grave news

“Why did the Five Commandments attack the Hall of Power? It is because a powerful existence has been born here. The son of my ancestor is an unprecedented event that hasn’t occurred in the entire history of Imperium. It alarmed a lot of gods and before we realized it, the Five Commandments demolished the entire Hall of Power.”

Governor Ray paused before he added, “It is said that my ancestor’s son is connected to their goal. We didn’t know who spread this rumor but God’s Will demolished us even though there’s no proof. I think they are afraid of something. My ancestor’s son quickly rose to the power and challenge everyone. A huge battle occurred here that almost extinguished the population of the Hall Plains.”

Alice wanted to ask something but Governor Ray interrupted her.

“Let’s start. We couldn’t stay here for a long time. I’m afraid that I won’t be able to enter this place for the next few months. I have used all the time that is given to me.” Governor Ray said.

Alice nodded. She knew that Governor Ray was right. This place have many restrictions and no one could probably force their way in here. Even Hero rank would die if they tried to enter this place by force. After all, a god was the one that created this place.

…

Alice recalled the conversation in the underground base. There was a corpse of a god in that place and once news about it spread out, she knew that it would throw the entire Hall Plains into a chaotic situation.

“The Hall of Power is back… I need to make a move now. I will bring my troops toward the Spring Land.” Governor Ray said.

“You will go to Spring Land? What about the Mine Valley?” Alice asked.

“That’s why there are other members of the Dragon Council. I’m leaving you and the rest of the Heads to deal with the tribes from the Earthen Woods while I go to the Spring Land. I will expand our scope of influence along the way.” Governor Ray added, “We have less than two weeks before the Mountain of Demise fully exploded…”

“I see…” Alice nodded as she lifted her head and looked at the crimson net that covered the sky.

Governor Ray didn’t waste his time as he quickly assembled three thousand troops. After he assembled his troops, he packed all the rations that they would need in their march. He would conquer a few areas in the Spring Land and head toward the Mountain of Demise. He would open up a path for others.

Alice was preparing to leave Bland City and return to Ekatoe City when a guard approached her.

“L-Lady Alice…” The guard was breathing heavily and his expression was pale. It seems that he ran here as soon as he heard something important.

“Calm down and slowly tell me what happened…” Alice said to the guard. The expression of the guard already told her that this was very important.

“The White Wheat City…” The guard lifted his head and looked at Alice.

…

In a faraway place…

A man was sitting on a throne with his eyes closed. In the next second, he opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.

“It seems that something has occurred. Let me see it…” A surprised look appeared on his face as he turned his gaze to the window. “To think that there are fools that wanted to awaken the No God Emperor. They are asking to die. The Commandments will not tolerate it.”

He stood up and a dark furry cape appeared on his back. He combed his messy hair with his fingers before he walked down on the throne.

This man was Esquin also known as the Ruler of Gluttony.
