The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak

Chapter 1004: Witch Hunt: Leave everything to me



Chapter 1004: Witch Hunt: Leave everything to me



Elemental being. A creature of pure elements. They possessed immense elemental power.


Eilan became a host for one such being. Due to Eilan's unique constitution, he was compatible with the elemental being, which also prevented him from succumbing entirely to his illness. If the elemental being were separated from him, Eilan would die, as their bodies had fused into one.


Using data from the witch's experiments, they planned to integrate the elemental being controlling Eilan into the Walpurgis Night, similar to how experimental subjects were bound to the Dream Palace.


In this way, the elemental being would gain the power to control the entire land and harness all the Dream Power that sustains this place. He would merge with the core of Walpurgis Night, gaining the strength to end this game.


He would become the true ruler of Walpurgis Night and save the countless lives hanging by a thread.


Gawain laughed mockingly, glancing at Layla. "Do you really think you can simply use the power of a core in the Dream Realm so easily? If it were that simple, other beings would have done it before."


Layla replied, "We're not sure yet, but if it succeeds, you'll be able to attain your death."


"That's a big 'if'," Gawain retorted. "Gaining the power of the Dream Realm, which encompasses all living creatures that sleep, isn't something that's easy to do. Did you research the beings that forcefully controlled the lands in the Dream Realm?"


The vast territories in the Dream Realm, such as Walpurgis Night and Vanko, were powered by cores made of pure Dream Power. These cores also nourished the creatures, allowing their Dream Power to grow stronger even without training.


"W-What about my brother?!" Eilish asked desperately.


"Is that even a question? From what I can see, the body will die if the elemental being is separated. It has become too dependent on the elemental being, so there's no point in separating them. If you did, then Walpurgis Night would probably collapse since no one could stop its destruction except for the elemental being," Gawain said calmly.


As for the six holy stakes, they were insurance. Powered by Morgan Le Fay, they held great potential. However, using them to destroy the black sun, which was the core, would result in the destruction of the barrier. Without a core, the land would slowly die, forcing the witches to migrate to other lands.


"D-Does that mean I can never get my brother back?" Eilish muttered.


She had finally found her brother, but this was something she didn't expect. Her brother's illness had disappeared because he became the host of an elemental being, but Eilan's body had become too dependent on it.


Gawain raised his hand, and Arven and Lensa stopped fighting the two elders.


The two elders stood in the air, turning their heads to see the human-like golems just several kilometers away, drawing closer and closer.


"It seems we won't need to fight... I was hoping to achieve death in battle," Gawain muttered to his comrades in disappointment.


Well, it was fine since others like him, trapped in the Dream Palace, would achieve death if the game failed. He just hoped that Walpurgis Night would emerge as strong as it had in the past and clear this game, but reality was more disappointing than he had imagined.


Gawain looked up and muttered to himself, "I stayed here to see what the witches would do in the crisis left by the Purity. I don't even need to stand in their way to give them a proper experience, Le Fay. I will die soon once Walpurgis Night has completely fallen."


The hope that Morgan Le Fay left was in vain. The witches didn't use their knowledge. They were the same as before; the internal conflict proved that there was no more hope for them.


The Supreme Elders and Matriarch didn't even make an appearance. He suspected they had been taken down by the group of witches that betrayed them in the past. They should have massacred them instead of sparing them.


If the witches had managed to train at least one Demigod or Freedom Realm warrior, they would have been able to avert this disaster easily. Unfortunately, all the Demigods and Hero- rank warriors perished hundreds of years ago.


"Shit... Eilan lost his focus because of her. The golems are getting closer," Layla thought to herself.


They had only a minute before the golems arrived. It would take time and concentration for Eilan to integrate himself into Walpurgis Night.


"I've already finished half of it, so I don't need much more time. Just make sure that girl doesn't get close to me," Eilan said to Layla.


Layla nodded at his words. She knew how crucial this moment was for them. If they failed, they would have to resort to using the holy stakes to destroy the black sun.


Eilan turned to Eilish and said, "I remember you now. You're that girl from the sub-world. You have potential, but the bloodline of Umbra is too thin in your veins, so I chose this body. I didn't expect to find you in Imperium. Be thankful to me for curing your brother's illness. I'm the reason he's still alive, so don't bother me anymore."


After saying those words, he turned around and concentrated on integrating himself with the land. Shadows danced around his feet as bluish lights glowed around him.


"B-Brother..." Eilish muttered, feeling conflicted.


She wanted her brother to return to normal, but separating him from the elemental being meant his death. Moreover, if she disturbed him, could she handle the burden of countless


people dying?


Eilan immediately turned back around and launched a ray of energy.


"I said don't distract me, lest you want everyone in this land to die! Are you prepared to take responsibility if everyone here perishes?!" he roared.


Swoosh!!


The ray of energy flashed toward Eilish at high speed. She couldn't avoid it due to the pressure from the higher-level experts in the area. Layla and the others were all experts at the Sixth Shackle Realm, and their energy was like a heavy boulder pressing down on weaker experts like Eilish.


Boom!!


...


Meanwhile, somewhere in Walpurgis Night:


Bryan, Edeya, Zhang Ren, and Captain Sarguan stood in front of Elder Uiny. Filled with rage, Elder Uiny was helpless against them.


"H-How?! Why did the magic circle stop working?!" Elder Uiny roared madly.


She was losing her sanity at the thought of their plan going wrong. The magic circles beneath the land, which were speeding up the destruction of Walpurgis Night, had suddenly stopped working. Perhaps, it was related to the strange phenomenon that had just occurred.


Who could do such a thing?


And now, the worst-case scenario had appeared.


All six holy stakes had gathered in one place-in the Dream Palace.


At this moment, every living being in Walpurgis Night could sense the presence of the holy


stakes.


"I won't let you kill everyone here!" Bryan declared as he dashed forward, pulling back both


of his fists.


Swoosh!!


Bryan threw a series of powerful punches, but Elder Uiny avoided them with all her might. She gritted her teeth in anger, seeing these people trying to thwart her plan.


Edeya also charged forward to assist Bryan in battling the elder. She smiled and said, "The holy stakes have appeared. It means someone is going to clear this game soon, and you're desperate to get there to stop the holy stakes from being used, aren't you?"


"Y-You!" Veins popped up on Elder Uiny's forehead.


Suddenly, she felt a sharp pain in her waist. Looking down, she saw a whip wrapped around


her.


"Are you forgetting that I'm here, you bitch?" Poisonous Vine laughed as she slammed the


elder to the ground.


Bang!!


Elder Uiny felt the effects of the poison slowly taking hold as Poisonous Vine continued to release it. She struggled to get up, spitting out a mouthful of blood.


"T-This can't be..."


These people were weak individually. In a one-on-one fight, there was no way they could defeat her. But the current situation didn't allow for such a scenario.


"Swoosh!!"


Bryan flashed before her and delivered a powerful punch to her stomach. Her body bent


backward as she was sent flying several kilometers away.


Ugh!!


Elder Uiny steadied herself, her heart beating wildly as she looked ahead.


Bryan stood in the air, surrounded by overflowing elements. His strength was almost


approaching the level of the elders.


...


Boom!!


A massive explosion ensued, shaking the land as smoke and dust billowed around.


"Hmm...?" Gawain, who had been watching with a disappointed expression, raised his


eyebrows.


Layla looked at Eilan and exclaimed, "Why did you do that?! Do you understand what this


means?!"


"I already told you to keep her away from me," Eilan retorted.


Swoosh!!


As the smoke slowly dissipated, a figure emerged standing in front of Eilish.


Eilish stared at the figure in front of her with wide eyes.


It was none other than Souta.


Souta placed his palm on top of her head and said, "I heard everything, so leave this to me."
