The Evolution Of A Goblin To The Peak Chapter 227 Shadow Cloak

Chapter 227 Shadow Cloak

In the game, the weakest monster in the mid-level dungeon was level 18 or level 19. Souta and Yuko could one hit this level of monster.

He strode forward while looking at his surrounding. The chilly atmosphere here was nothing compared to the atmosphere when he fought the six-circle officer of the Deadly Sins. The ferocious aura of the six-circle officers that made Lynn puke was terrifying.

That kind of aura couldn't be compared to a mere mid-level dungeon.

After walking for a few minutes, Souta and Yuko saw two wide paths in front of them.

He could remember the position of the dungeons and some precious things inside it but he couldn't remember the monster that inhabited it. He didn't have a photographic memory so he could only prepare himself to counter any kind of monster.

He wondered if there were skills that could help him remember the things that he saw.

"Let's go to the left." Souta as he moved his feet and strode towards the path that he chose.

The path became wider and some sort of rock formation was in the ceiling. It feels that they were inside a cave. The brick walls were gone and the floor too.

Souta narrowed his eyes as he crouched down. He placed his palm on the floor and found the soil was wet.

"Hmm...? Maybe some kind of monster that uses water or the monster brought water here... I still couldn't guess it." Souta muttered in a low voice. They haven't met a single monster ever since they enter inside this dungeon.

Souta raised his palm and looked at it. His brows knitted together as he saw what's in his palm.

"Red water... No, this is blood." Souta guessed as he brought his palm close to his nose and took a sniff.

He was right... The soil was full of blood.

The blood wasn't dry...

Suddenly, he heard Yuko growled.

"Hmm?" Souta lifted his head and saw a huge shadow ten meters away from them.

The shadow was a figure of tall and bulky green creatures. It was holding a huge hammer in both of its hands. It looks fierce and it has two huge fangs.

"A troll..." Souta said as he stood up and patted his clothes. He looked at the blood-red eyes of the troll and said, "Yuko, I'll let you handle it."

As soon as he said those words, Yuko who was at his side quickly rushed towards the huge troll.

Roar!

The troll roared and rushed forward to intercept Yuko.

Swoos.h.!.+

The troll raised his hand and brought down the axe in his hand towards Yuko's neck.

Clang!

The axe broke into several tiny pieces as it made contact with Yuko's neck. Yuko ignored it and opened her mouth widely. She then bit the neck of the troll while taking it down using her entire weight.

Bang!

Blood spurted out from its neck. The troll tried to struggle but Yuko pushed him to the ground with all of her might. A second evolution Red Fur Bear that was close to its third evolution was clear powerful than the troll.

Yuko easily overpowered such opponents using brute strength.

The troll roared angrily as it punched Yuko and swung the other axe in his hand.

Yuko pinned it down and flames started to appear in her mouth. She then opened her mouth towards the face of the troll.

[Burning Shout]!

Flames swallowed the body of the troll along Yuko's body. She had high resistance to flame as her evolution was related to it.

After a while, the troll stopped struggling as it drew its last breath. It died easily at Yuko's hands.

Souta nodded in satisfaction as he watched her battle. A colorless grade weapon wouldn't be able to scratch Yuko's body at all. It was a different matter if the troll knew how to control its mana and imbued it in the axe.

"Good job." Souta walked forward and patted Yuko's head.

"Mu." Yuko closed her eyes and enjoyed his patting.

"Let's go," Souta said and both of them continued to move forward. He couldn't use his spells. It will be hard to fight someone as strong as him if he couldn't use it.

[Shadow Ball], [Shadow Bind], and [Gravitational Ball] were useful in any kind of situation. The fact that he couldn't use these spells was troubling him. That's the reason why he's hesitating to enter this dungeon.

Souta stopped and looked at his skill tree. He ignored the spell branch as he couldn't use it in his condition. He focused his attention on the two shadow type combat arts on the side of the interface.

[Shadow Cloak] and [Shadow Steps] were the two combat arts that were available to him. He could unlock other combat arts if he learned these two.

He saw the [Shadow Steps] combat arts in the list of arts in the Ladro Inst.i.tute but he couldn't find the [Shadow Cloak] in their list. It was not an offensive combat arts but rather it was a defensive and buff combat arts.

The [Shadow Cloak] was a type of armor that could absorb 500 damage points at level 1. It could also strengthen the attributes of the user to some extent. While using this art, the power darkness attribute spell and combat arts would increase by ten percent.

Souta used two skill points without hesitation to learn this combat arts.

*Ding!*

[Do you want to learn Shadow Cloak using 2 skill points? Yes/No?]

Yes.

*Ding!*

[You've learned Shadow Cloak!]

Knowledge about the [Shadow Cloak] poured into Souta's mind.

After a while, Souta felt like he could easily use this art. The system was amazing. It could pour the knowledge of a certain skill in his mind to the point that he could easily use it. It felt like he was using the [Shadow Cloak] for a long time. It was really a strange sensation.

Souta shook his head and used the [Shadow Cloak]. The shadows in his surrounding swirl around his body and formed a black cloak. Black particles were falling from the cloak every second. Before it touches the ground the particles disappeared into thin air.

He looked at his hands as he closed and open his palms. He felt his stats slightly increased. Well, looking at his system all of his stats have increased by 10 points. It wasn't that large compared to his 500+ total attributes but it wasn't that bad. The main point of this skill was its defensive properties and increased in power of darkness spell and combat arts.

The black cloak disappeared as Souta canceled it. It consumed 1 stamina per 2 seconds so Souta wouldn't activate it easily. He had 600+ stamina so he could only use it for twenty minutes. And that's if he just stood up without doing anything.

His stamina recovery wasn't that great compared to his health and mana recovery. So he couldn't use it without fighting strong opponents.

...

Souta and Yuko continued to move forward. They met ten trolls including the one the Yuko killed before. Both of them hunted all the trolls that they met. Nothing could stop them.

The trolls were getting stronger and stronger as they continue to move deep in the dungeon. At some point, Souta and Yuko stopped moving as they saw twenty armed second evolution trolls in front of them.

Walls appeared behind them and it made sure that they wouldn't escape.

The killing intent of the trolls flooded the entire room. They looked at Souta and Yuko with bloodshot eyes.

"It's not a problem for us," Souta muttered as he turned his head and looked at the figure behind the huge trolls that were blocking their path.

Behind the twenty trolls, a small troll holding a staff was looking at them with a grin on his fierce face. It was a troll shaman. It used its power to create a wall behind them.

"Yuko, let's finish this as soon as possible." Souta grinned as he brandished the vajra sword and dashed towards the group of trolls.

Roar!

Yuko followed him with a deafening roar.

...

Outside of the mid-level dungeon where Souta and Yuko entered.

Thud! Thud!

A huge green creature stood in front of the entrance of the dungeon. The green humanoid creature was seven-meter tall. It has huge bulky and ripped muscles. Ragged cloth covered its lower body.

The green humanoid creature had a dark green fist-size gem on the center of its chest. Its golden-colored pupils were looking straight in the dungeons. It feels as if it could see through what's happening deep inside the dungeon.

Its teeth were as sharp as a blade and it had pointed ears. Its long glossy black hair was braided from roots to its ends. Black tribal tattoo covered its body.

This creature was a Goblin Executioner.

A fifth evolution monster.

A monster that could terrify countless humans and demis with one look was standing outside the mid-level dungeon.

Behind the Goblin Executioner were various types of green-skinned monsters.
