Chapter 407 - Strange Creature

Bang! Bang!

Souta moved swiftly as he knocked out seven monsters inside the cave. They haven't gone too deeply yet they already encountered seven of them.​​

He guessed that after the sh.i.p.s scared them the monsters placed some of their comrades near the entrance as guards. If he was correct, then this monster possessed a little bit of intelligence despite being a non-evolved monster.

Isabella squatted in front of the corpses and observed them for a while before she stood up while shaking her head.

"What's wrong?" Souta asked her.

"Nothing... I'm just trying to observe if this one is different than the one on the ship." Isabella replied to him.

"Okay..." Souta said as he continued to walk deeper while the rest followed him.

They found that the cave was bigger than they've imagined. This was like a maze or labyrinth that has so many paths. Also, they've found other monsters deep inside the place. It means that three different species of monsters were living in this maze-like cave.

It's been an hour since they've entered the cave and the people on the sh.i.p.s were getting restless. Noon was slowly approaching as the temperature in the area was rising rapidly. This was one of the most dangerous things in the desolate land of the Greia.

The temperature of desolate land would hit 150 degrees celsius at noon. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to handle this heat but for C-rank and above powerhouses, they could handle this level of heat even if they stayed here for several hours.

One of the five people that Souta brought notify him about this. They explained to him about the heat level of this land at noon. Their power level was only D-rank and below so 150 degrees celsius would definitely burn their bodies.

Hmm...?

Souta rubbed his chin as he glanced at Isabella. Her power level was only D-rank and this level of heat was something she couldn't handle.

After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Okay, the five of you can go back now. The heat level didn't include underground. I'm sure that the heat in this place wouldn't rise to that level because we're more than a hundred meters below the ground.

"Haven't you notice it yet. The toxins and chemicals couldn't reach this place. There's nothing in the air other than oxygen."

Souta noticed it when they were walking. The air in this place was clean compared to the surface. There's no chemicals or toxins that can harm humans and demis.

The five people tested it and found that Souta was correct. They could remove their protective equipment or gears in this place.

"It's true but why there's no record of this in the files?"

"Yeah, it's pretty strange..."

"If that's the case then the heat level will not increase in this place..."

The five people talked to each other. They were amazed to find a place where the toxins and chemicals couldn't reach in the desolate land of Greia.

"Then... What's your decision? You're going back to the ship or staying here with us?" Souta asked the five people.

"We're not going back, sir, but... We're also not going to follow you." One of them said to him.

"So you're going to wait for us near the entrance..." Souta raised his eyebrows as he looked at them.

"Yes, sir. We're going to examine and find the boundary of the toxins and chemicals. We wanted to know how far the toxins could reach." One of the five people said.

"Okay. Then, I'll leave you now." Souta nodded his head and he turned around. "Let's go, Isabella."

Isabella nodded as she quickly followed Souta. She turned her head and glanced at the five people behind. She then asked, "Are they going to be fine, Souta?"

"Well, it depends but I think that they could handle themselves. We've eliminated most of the monsters so there's no need to worry about them." Souta replied without turning back. He could guess why they wanted to know how far the toxins could reach. It must be because they wanted to occupy the desolate land.

Until now, humans and demis couldn't occupy this place because of toxins and chemicals so if they build an underground place they could live in this place too.

The desolate land was enormous and it's the other half of this continent. They could simply cultivate the grass that could grow in this kind of place, no, in this underground place. It will be a huge help to them if they want to live underground like the monsters here.

Souta and Isabella went deeply... This underground place was like a dungeon.

After fifteen minutes...

The two stopped walking as they found a monster standing in front of them. A short humanoid monster that was armed with a rusty sword. The monster had green skin and pointed ears. It has sharp fangs and nails.

It looks like a goblin.

Souta narrowed his eyes as he looked at the humanoid monster in front of him. He was a little bit shock when he saw this monster. He glanced behind him and saw Isabella looking at the humanoid monster with a nervous expression.

'Should I test it?'

He turned his gaze back to the humanoid monster. Souta slowly opened his mouth and said, "Who are you?" The language that he used was the goblin language. The language that he learned when he became a first evolution monster.

Goblin was one of the few monsters like orcs and trolls that had their own language aside from the monster language that everyone could learn in their third evolution.

There was a reason why he used the goblin language. If he used the monster language, every living being would understand him but if he used goblin language then only goblins would understand him or any creatures that learned it.

The humanoid monster tilted its head when it heard Souta's words. After a few moments, it opened its mouth... "Invader, where did you learn our language?"

Although, he already expected it but... when he really heard words coming out of the creature's mouth shocked filled his entire body.

This... This one is a goblin? Just what type of goblin is this one?

This was his first time seeing a goblin like this. He saw dozens of different goblins when he was playing the Battle Worlds Online but he never saw this type.

'Can you understand this monster?' Saya asked him.

'Yes, I think that it's a different path of goblin's evolution.' Souta replied to her with a serious expression.

'How can that be? Yeah, this one resembles a goblin but I haven't seen any goblin like this... Is this a path of goblin unique to this sub-world?' Just like Souta, Saya was shocked too when she heard that this humanoid monster was a goblin.

'I'm also thinking that it opened up a unique evolution path because of the unique environment in this sub-world. The toxins and chemicals are the cause of this evolution.' Souta said as he slowly approached the humanoid monster. He knitted his eyebrows and asked, "Are you alone or not?"

His question caused the humanoid monster to narrowed its eyes.

"S-Souta... It looks like it was angry. Are you really sure that you can communicate with it?" Isabella grabbed his shirt and said nervously.

"Yes, don't worry about it. I can communicate using a dragon language so this one is nothing." Souta said so that she could understand it easily. Isabella would be confused if he said it was a monster language as the people from her world knew it as dragon language. He would just explain it to her if he had a time.

'I wanted to see if there are others like this one. This one should be a first evolution stage as the non-evolved goblin is just a normal goblin without outstanding characteristics.'

He thought as he glanced beyond the humanoid monster. He wondered if he could find the others if he goes in this direction.

The humanoid monster simply looked at Souta. This guy felt familiar and know their language but his appearance was different from theirs. Is this guy a member of the tribe? Or is he from the other tribe? Maybe he came from the other tribe as he was asking if there are others like me...

"I want you to bring me to your comrades... I'm a blood goblin, a third evolution of the goblin's path." Souta said to the humanoid monster as he let out a little bit of his best feram to intimidate this one. He had to show a little bit of his power so that a fellow monster would submit to him.

Ohm!

The humanoid monster fell down on its b.u.t.t as it felt Souta's energy. It couldn't handle the intense fluctuations so its knees collapsed causing the monster to fall.

Thud!
