From Goblin to Goblin God - Chapter 333

Chapter 333: Collapse of the Angel Army! Lucifer’s Fear and Betrayal!

TL: Sungmin

“Ah??”

Everyone who heard the voice was utterly dumbfounded!

But the most bewildered of all was Lin Tian!

He actually dared to use the Scales of Judgment against an angel. Everyone knew that if the soul of the user wasn’t purer than their opponent’s, they would face severe punishment themselves!

That was precisely why the artifact wasn’t given to Gabriel but to Michael.

It was because Michael had a kind heart and upright character.

Lucifer shouted in alarm, “Stop! Stop immediately! You’ll be devoured by the backlash and die!”

But it was too late.

Lin Tian had already activated the power of the Scales of Judgment!

A colossal golden illusion of the scales materialized, towering like a giant pillar piercing the heavens.

One side appeared at Lin Tian’s position, the other at Michael’s.

The scales placed the two of them on its plates as if weighing mere objects.

Buzz!

A sacred, thunderous hum reverberated, like the grinding of ancient gears.

There was no stopping it now.

Unless Lin Tian used Lucky Steal to forcibly interrupt the casting, which was impossible because the skill could only steal—it couldn’t return anything.

Amid the ongoing battle, Adam glanced over and chuckled, “Ha! Looks like your leader might not be all there! Dear Eve, just hold on a little longer. Victory is within reach!”

If Michael came to help, they could turn the tide.

“What do we do? Has that kid completely lost his mind?”

The One-Eyed Owl spoke gravely, unable to come up with a solution.

Once a weapon like this was activated, she had no power to stop it.

Alicenia shared the sentiment but still said, “Let’s believe in him!”

“It’s almost over, Lucifer!”

Gabriel’s fighting spirit surged as if victory were within grasp.

At that moment.

Michael stood motionless, brimming with confidence as she declared, “Goblin, you’re a fool! Let’s see who the true evil one is! The Scales of Judgment never lie!”

“I even pity you. To have reached this point as the weakest of goblins is already a legendary myth among monsters. I’ll mourn you after your death.”

Michael’s gaze was unwavering as she spoke, her voice filled with conviction.

For a moment, it seemed like everything had gone wrong, but now, it truly felt as if God had blessed her!

Yet, she noticed something odd. “Aren’t you afraid? Why are you so calm?”

“Heh, because it’s you who’s about to die. Savor the world while you still can. After your death, I’ll make sure you stay by my side for eternity. Hahaha…”

Lin Tian sneered coldly, his expression brimming with arrogance.

He had already checked the artifact after obtaining it. The effects had been reversed.

It was no longer a weapon for the angels but his exclusive tool!

This was the power of Lucky Steal.

Now, the Scales of Judgment judged based on the opponent’s level of evil, delivering punishment accordingly.

This made it an unmatched weapon against angels.

The scales began to tilt back and forth, first leaning toward Lin Tian, then toward Michael.

In the end, Lin Tian’s side became so heavy that it catapulted Michael upward to the very peak of the scale.

Seeing this.

Michael panicked. “What’s happening? Are the scales malfunctioning? Why is he heavier than me?!”

The purer the soul, the heavier it appeared on the scales, while the more evil, the lighter.

“It’s impossible!!”

This scene shocked not only the angels but also the monsters!

“Holy shit, His Goblin Majesty is… a saintly figure?!”

“This is nuts! His Majesty is kinder than an angel! I’m moved to tears!”

“Hahaha, this world has gone mad. My mind is reeling from this revelation!”

The monster demi-humans were utterly dumbfounded.

After spending so much time with Lin Tian, they thought they knew him well.

But the scene before them completely shattered their perception.

Some of them even grabbed their heads and scratched furiously or rubbed their eyes as if trying to wake from a bizarre dream.

They forgot they were still in the middle of a life-or-death battle.

If the monsters were already struggling to process this.

The angels were even more shaken to their cores!

The Goblin King, the evil creature they sought to judge and condemn, was purer than Michael!

If that were true, their actions were nothing short of heinous and unjust.

Meanwhile, Gabriel and Lucifer both stopped their fierce battle, staring at the ethereal scales in shock.

The Demon God Samael scratched his head in disbelief. “What the hell! Is this even a monster?!”

“Don’t talk to me. I need a moment,” Lucifer barked, turning to Gabriel. “What’s your take on this?”

“Shut up!” Gabriel’s voice erupted alongside an explosion of flames. It was as if a nuclear blast had incinerated everything within hundreds of meters around her!

As the flames subsided, only Lucifer and a few other Demon Gods remained, with even the ground reduced to ash and rubble.

Michael’s mind was in utter chaos. She had come here as a representative of justice to slay the Goblin King.

But now?

It turned out this Goblin was more righteous than she was, while she and her comrades had become the perpetrators of injustice.

The sheer contradiction of it all nearly drove the angels to collapse!

Even the One-Eyed Owl couldn’t help but ask, “Do you think that kid secretly spends his days helping old ladies cross the street, comforting struggling families, and sponsoring poor children’s education?!”

“Who knows? It might actually be possible.”

Even Alicenia found herself unable to process or accept the situation.

Gobu Kuang, on the other hand, burst out laughing. “Boss is truly the Boss! My kind, powerful Boss—unparalleled as ever! Hahaha!”

Adam stood frozen, the mental impact too overwhelming. He could no longer hold off the massive wave of Eerie Lords surging toward him.

He was in mortal danger.

At this moment, Michael was panicking, her tears streaming uncontrollably. “Why? Why is this happening? How can you be purer than me? How?! I can’t accept such a failure!”

“Didn’t I already tell you?” Lin Tian replied confidently. “I have done nothing wrong. You are the ones steeped in sin and evil!”

Seizing the moment, Lin Tian exploited the situation to deal a massive psychological blow to the Angel Army.

Without the support of their righteous convictions, their fighting strength would undoubtedly plummet.

Hearing this, Michael’s mind spiraled further into chaos as Lin Tian’s words echoed in her head. She couldn’t pinpoint what was wrong, but the dissonance nearly drove her mad.

The angelic soldiers also began to waver, their morale crumbling.

“Could we truly be the evil ones here?”

“To surpass Michael’s heart of kindness—just what has this Goblin done?”

“Maybe he’s been secretly accumulating good deeds, benefiting the people…”

“Should we even keep fighting? Everything we’ve done… it’s a betrayal of truth.”

Seeing the angels’ dwindling spirit, Gabriel grew increasingly alarmed. She had never anticipated that a mere Goblin could cause such havoc.

Even she was deeply shaken.

Suddenly, her pupils contracted. “This is bad! Michael, think of a way to escape!”

Boom!

As she spoke, her entire body ignited, her wings bursting into flame. Gripping the Holy Spear, she soared into the sky and dived toward the Scales of Judgment with ferocious intensity.

The searing flames radiated an unparalleled brilliance, as though capable of obliterating everything.

Bang!

But it was futile. The attack struck the Scales of Judgment, barely causing a tremor.

Michael finally realized the gravity of the situation. “No! Save me! Someone save me! Lord Gabriel! Lord God! Please save me!”

The sound of grinding gears echoed as an invisible pressure descended from above, shaking everyone to their core.

It felt like the chilling sound of a gavel striking in a final courtroom judgment.

The illusory scales vanished, but Michael was left bound by unseen chains in the sky. The Scales of Judgment in Lin Tian’s hands began to emit a blinding black light.

From this light emerged five pitch-black, colossal hands that pinned Michael’s limbs and head.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

“Gasp! Gasp! Gasp!”

Her erratic breathing and frantic heartbeat betrayed her terror.

Michael’s face was full of despair. She felt her end was near—her death imminent.

The black hands holding her were bone-chillingly cold, amplifying her dread.

“Save me! I’m sorry, Goblin! I don’t want to die! Please stop the Scales of Judgment from reaching the punishment stage!”

Tears streamed down Michael’s cheeks in torrents. She trembled violently, drained of all color, fully aware of what awaited her.

She had used the Scales of Judgment to kill countless monsters and enemies.

She knew exactly how it would end.

The other angels were utterly stunned.

“What?! Lord Michael is begging for mercy?!”

“Do we… even have a reason to keep fighting?”

“Heavens, what is happening?!”

Tears continued to fall from Michael’s eyes as the five black hands gripped her limbs tightly, contrasting starkly with her delicate, white flesh.

Gabriel snarled, “Michael! Shut up! Do not disrupt our soldiers’ morale!”

Her fury ignited, and she lunged at Lin Tian, unleashing a blistering assault.

Her speed was so blindingly fast that no one could react in time.

However, Lin Tian remained unfazed by the oncoming Holy Spear. Without even blinking, he calmly activated his ability.

Jehovah’s Blessing!

His body turned incorporeal, perfectly evading the lethal strike.

Boom!

The spear pierced the ground, splitting it into a massive chasm spanning several kilometers, the wails of damned souls from Hell echoing within.

Gabriel was incredulous but quickly launched another attack.

“Stop!” Lucifer’s commanding shout echoed. He activated Dark Holy Word, and numerous Demon Gods rushed forward to intercept Gabriel.

Lucifer cast a final glance at Michael. “Do it, Lin Tian.”

“No, goblin, don’t! Please don’t!!!”

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Michael’s anguished cries reverberated through the heavens, her voice breaking apart like a fragile toy being dismantled.

The black hands disassembled her body piece by piece, leaving her utterly shattered.

Such a conceptual-level attack was utterly irresistible.

It was akin to how the Great Demon King of Envy had once threatened the system, only to be erased instantly by it.

The despair was suffocating.

“No!!”

Gabriel’s eyes quivered as she screamed in heart-wrenching agony.

How had it come to this?

Wasn’t God supposed to be on her side?

How could He allow this to happen?

Samael, growing wary, warned, “Be cautious! Gabriel might grow stronger again because of Lin Tian! Damn it, how is this possible?!”

He was becoming numb from one shock after another.

However, something seemed off this time.

Gabriel’s aura was rapidly diminishing. “Could it be… we really were in the wrong?”

Her sorrowful eyes swept over the battlefield.

Of the one hundred thousand ordinary angels, only thirty or forty thousand remained. The mid-tier angels were still locked in combat with the high demons, but with the Three-Life Demon Armor in play, it was only a matter of time before they were all slain.

Of course, the goblins and the mindless demons had also suffered heavy losses.

Their success was entirely reliant on the divine goblins. Without them, even a billion monsters wouldn’t have been enough to withstand the angels.

One basic attack from an angel could obliterate swathes of enemies.

As for the high-tier angels, nearly all of them had fallen, and Michael, drained of magical power, was only capable of casting low-level healing spells.

The surviving angels lay unconscious.

Adam, drenched in sweat, was cornered and on the brink of collapse.

Now, with Michael’s death, the entire Angel Army teetered on the verge of disintegration.

Lucifer observed all of this, his shocked gaze fixed on Lin Tian.

He knew very well that Lin Tian was no saint.

What shocked him was not only Lin Tian’s ability to dominate the battlefield but also his mastery in toying with the enemy’s mind.

Being outmatched in strength was one thing. Breaking the opponent’s spirit, however, was a true hallmark of power.

This was the hallmark of a true master tactician—the pinnacle of warfare.

“I… actually feel a trace of fear,” Lucifer thought, his expression grim. “If he isn’t brought under control, the consequences will be catastrophic.”

His thoughts were complicated, filled with a mix of dread and calculations.

Lucifer’s goals had never been about conquering the world or ruling everything. His sole purpose was to defy God, to challenge His arrogant and extreme authority.

Originally, he had planned to use Lin Tian for his cause. But now, it was painfully clear—Lin Tian was beyond his control.

In fact, Lucifer himself might have become the one being used.

Samael, however, continued to laugh heartily. “We’ve won, Lucifer! Our goal is within reach!”

“Wait! Change of plans. We need to take control of Lin Tian immediately! His power has exceeded all expectations!” Lucifer issued the order decisively.

He had made up his mind. Lin Tian needed to be restrained before he exploited the chaos of Lucifer’s eventual battle with God.

From afar, Lin Tian heard Lucifer’s voice. He sneered with disdain. “Hmph. Arrogant fools. You have no room for negotiation anymore…”

At that moment, Lin Tian stood beside Michael’s corpse, not far from four high-tier angels.

However, he didn’t devour Michael’s body.

Although Michael’s essence would have been better than that of a Demigod, Lin Tian had other plans.

He was on the cusp of evolving into a Demigod Bloodline. After evolving, devouring a deity would expedite his progress.

Killing Michael had already been a significant step forward.

[Ding! Ragnarok activated. Congratulations, Host, for slaying the Seraph Michael. You have gained: Life Points x1500, Attack Power x600, Defense Power x800. You have also obtained the opponent’s exclusive Mythic-Class Magic: World-Ending Sanctions!]

The system notification chimed.

Since the Church’s followers had long since perished, the death of Heaven’s deities meant their complete obliteration.

Lin Tian’s eyes sparkled but held no surprise. Ragnarok was an ability designed to elevate his limits.

For every god slain, his strength grew exponentially.

Moreover, Lin Tian noticed a faint flame flickering in the center of the Scales of Judgment.

It seemed to have absorbed Michael’s power, becoming even stronger.

Looking at the four high-tier angels lying helpless on the ground, Lin Tian’s lips curled into a smile. “You’ll all be my prey…”

Of course, he wasn’t referring to the angels lying there.
