The Evolution of a Goblin to the Peak Chapter 185 – New Captain of the explorer group

Chapter 185 - New Captain of the explorer group

"The Forest of Eternal Light...?" Brando and Lumilia were shocked when they heard his words. The two of them know the Forest of Eternal Light, the largest forest next to Dark Forest.

The Forest of Eternal Light was one of the largest forests in the whole Giza continent. A lot of powerful monsters and tribes inhabited this large forest. The country of the wood elves resides there. They were the most dominant race that lives in the forest except for the few fifth evolution monsters.

The Forest of the Eternal Light was in the north of the Melosa country and Septiz country, two large countries in the Giza continent.

"We're going there...?" Lumilia still couldn't believe that they were going to that famous forest.

She heard a lot of tales regarding that forest. The Goblin Executioner of the legend, the Troll Overlord, the Mad Glutton Orc, and the Mountain Back Spider. These four monsters were a monster at the level of fifth evolution monster. Currently, no adventurers managed to subdue them as even a party consist of rank Adventurers was wiped out by one of these monsters.

In the end, the council of the Eternal Empire, the country of the elves, forbids people to come into the monster's territory as there were rumors that a monster lord was supervising the four fifth evolution monsters. Also, there were tales that some people saw other fifth evolution monsters in the forest other than the four mentioned monsters.

"Yes, we're going to that place," Souta said to them with a serious expression.

Based on what he knew in the game, Souta knew that these rumors were true. In fact, ten monster lords were supervising the forest of Eternal Light, and their army was composed of powerful monsters. The Eternal Empire knew the truth that's why they forbid anyone from hunting those powerful monsters as it would incur the wrath of the monster lords.

The Eternal Empire was the first one to be attacked once the humans and demis incurred the wrath of the monster lords. The Eternal Empire would fall immediately when those monster lords attack.

On the surface, everyone thought that the Eternal Empire was the most dominant race in the Forest of Eternal Light but everyone was wrong. Only those higher-ups of the Eternal Empire knew this information.

There were dozens of hidden dungeons in that forest and Souta wanted one of them. He wanted to acquire the other [Soul Blood Earring] there.

"That place is extremely dangerous, right?" Brando asked Souta.

"Yeah, that place is dangerous for us but we just need to be careful and follow me," Souta said to them with a serious expression. "That's why... All of you needed to increase your strength in the upcoming outdoor training."

"Oh, is there a lot of powerful people there?" Bryan commented when he heard their words.

"Yeah, those people could easily end your life in an instant that's why you need to train harder." Souta nodded and said to Bryan.

"Okay, I'll keep training to increase my strength and defeat you!" Bryan said as he patted his chest.

"That's a good goal you have there." Souta smiled. They went back to eating their food before they returned to their home.

Souta and Yuko went back and immediately rest. Souta lied down in his bed and just stared at the ceiling.

With his leveling speed, Souta thought that it would take 6-8 years before he managed to get the strength he had in the game. A year hadn't even passed since Souta arrived in this world. He would experience a lot of things before he got back to his peak.

The Giza continent, the God's continent, the Mars archipelago, the Demon's land, the Ruin's Desolate Land, Vulcan's ring continent, and the Frozen Continent. These seven continents of this world have a lot of godlike creatures that no other world could match. This world was massive that it could fit these seven large continents.

There were a lot of things that were waiting to be discovered and the sub-worlds, also called small worlds. These small worlds were literal small worlds. They were called like that because the energy in those worlds was too thin that's when people in this world went there, they could easily dominate those small worlds. Just the energy release from a God-level creature could easily destroy those worlds.

Souta thought that Earth was one of the small worlds out there. If that was the case then Souta could find a way back home but he wasn't entirely sure if he wanted to go back there. He only had a few memories of his self back on the earth.

"I'll just do the way I always do things... I'm going to start it by getting my equipment back." Souta muttered as he closed his eyes and thought that in his next expedition he will gather the materials that he and Yuko needed for their evolution.

The strength of their party wasn't enough and Souta knew it well. They were just weak creatures that were living in this world. He recalled that Jimmy would give him a team that he could do in his expedition. He thought that it was the time to form it.

The Dark Light of Eternal dungeon was extremely dangerous. It was a huge labyrinth full of traps and monsters. He needed manpower to clear that dungeon so that he could get the other [Soul Blood Earring].

He thought that even if they increased their strength in the outdoor training, it will be insufficient to clear it that's why he would bring some force of the Lanny corp. Well, it all depends on the improvement of everyone's strength. Maybe, they could surprise Souta after the outdoor training.

It seems that he needed to visit Jimmy before their outdoor training. He wanted to know if some capable people were available in Lanny corp. He also needed to see the owned dungeon of the Lanny corp.

After a while, Souta stood up from his bed. He couldn't sleep at all as a lot of things were coming into his mind once he closed his eyes.

He left his house and walked straight to the red light district. He stayed there this night.

Souta woke up early in the morning. The sun hasn't risen yet.

He pushed himself into a seated position and found himself in the red light district. Souta turned his head and looked at his side. He saw a tanned-skin woman with cat ears and tails sleeping beside him.

He stretched his body before he stood up and wore his clothes. Souta opened his wallet and took out two gold coins. He placed the two gold coins on top of the desk at the corner of the room.

"My tip..." Souta muttered as he looked at the sleeping woman on the bed. He then shook his head and exited the room.

He was planning to go to the Lanny corp first before he headed to the institute.

While he was walking, Souta felt that Yuko was trying to communicate with him through their contact. He forgot that he went out in the middle of the night without notifying her.

She must be worried about him. Maybe, she was just hungry and couldn't open the storage room.

'Wait for me and I'll bring some delicious food to you.' Souta said to her in his mind through their contract. It's some sort of telepathy through their master and pet contract.

After walking for a few minutes, Souta arrived in front of the Lanny corp. He looked up at the huge building thought that the name of the Lanny corp was spreading quickly in the whole city. After all, he brought a peak third evolution monster and it was under their name. Well, it was in their agreement.

He entered the door and he strode towards the receptionist. The receptionist knew Souta so she immediately called Jimmy.

Jimmy already introduced Souta to the workers of the Lanny corp so they naturally knew Souta was one of the hired adventurers of the Lanny corp. And Souta was one of the captains of the explorer group.

After a while, Jimmy arrived and asked Souta. "Hey, what made you come here?"

Souta looked around and thought that he should beat the point. "The ID you gave to me said that I'm a captain of an explorer group of the Lanny corp."

"Your saying..." Jimmy realized what he was trying to say.

"Yeah, I wanted to form my group and pick some of your people as my subordinates." Souta nodded and said.

"I see... So you wanted to form your group... I will immediately call some of my people and you can pick anyone that you like." Jimmy rubbed his chin and said to Souta.

"Can you make it faster? I still need to go to the institute." Souta suggested to him. He couldn't afford to be late as the outdoor training was going to start today.

Jimmy nodded and he walked towards the receptionist. He said, "Call every explorer that is available. I wanted them to come here as soon as possible... Oh? Don't call anyone who are in a team."

"I understood, sir." The receptionist nodded at Jimmy.
