I Am Not A Goblin Slayer

Chapter 430: Chapter 258: Battlefield Rose

Rachel, who was beside, saw this scene.

She hurriedly dismissed others and quietly closed the door.

Preventing anyone from suddenly barging in and disturbing Gauss.

She knew Gauss was in a rare state of deep insight.

This was a crucial moment.

In fact, the reason she squeezed time out of her busy schedule to guide Gauss was for him to embark on his second profession.

She hadn’t expected the process to come so early.

Originally, she thought that no matter what, it would take several sessions of guidance before he could condense his path and breakthrough the profession tier.

But unexpectedly, he took a critical step with just one session.

A trace of envy floated in her eyes as she looked at Gauss.

No wonder he could receive that gentleman’s attention.

At this moment, completely immersed in the changes happening within his body, Gauss was unaware of the changes outside.

He felt his blood surging like rushing waves, crashing over him, making his body extraordinarily hot.

It was as if he had turned into a small boat, navigating through a raging sea.

The new power continuously washed over his body.

Tearing, recasting, burning.

In this process, the originally more massive magic power did not intervene but continued to flow steadily, occasionally intertwining with the new force without impacting each other, negatively or positively.

The condensation for the second profession tier was indeed far more difficult than the first.

Rachel stared at Gauss’s expansive robe, which was constantly surging.

Silently celebrating for him, it was fortunate that his breakthrough was happening in the Adventurer’s Guild, free from external interference.

This was one of the safest places in Sen City.

At least during her years as president, no one dared to cause trouble here.

Only here could Gauss complete his transformation without disturbance.

”Boom!!!”

A deep yet piercingly loud bang suddenly erupted from outside.

Even the walls of the training room trembled slightly.

What happened??

Rachel’s expression changed sharply.

Seeing Gauss, who seemed unaffected by the external vibrations, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But once her gaze left Gauss, her cheerful and smiling face instantly became solemn.

Her eyes turned sharp like a hawk’s.

”Who made this noise, and why at this moment?”

She glanced at Gauss, soon the crystals on the door began to flicker with light.

It was an urgent signal from the Adventurer’s Guild outside.

Considering she had already seriously instructed not to disturb her unless necessary, and given the prior vibrations felt even in the enclosed training room.

She knew something must have happened outside!

She glanced at Gauss, finally deciding to go out and have a look.

Better to control the problem itself.

Outside the door, the staff waiting were already restless, like ants on a hot pan, each with anxious expression.

Only when Rachel came out did their faces calm down a bit, as if regaining their backbone.

Rachel noticed this scene and sighed inwardly.

Peace has lasted too long.

Now many people have lost their ability to withstand and cope with crises.

But now isn’t the time to fuss over details.

Outside the door, her deputy, a small but smartly dressed female, was sweating on her forehead.

”President! Something big has happened.” The deputy lowered her voice to report urgently upon seeing Rachel.

”We’ve received intelligence that large-scale jailbreaks and riots occurred in the Upper City District and Reef Prison! The prisoners somehow broke out and are fiercely clashing with the city guard who rushed there.”

”Moreover, major explosions erupted at several key sites throughout the city.”

Rachel’s pupils contracted, her face grew much heavier.

She wasn’t too worried about the jailbreak riots themselves; Reef Prison has always been a key guarded area of Sen City and isn’t located within the city but on a perilous island in the ocean.

What troubled her was the simultaneous explosions happening in the city.

Clearly, someone was engaged in some covert plotting.

”Relay my command, immediately activate level-one alert status, activate all defense runes, and seal the main entrances. Also, communicate and maintain contact with the headquarters.”

She took a deep breath.

Then quickly pointed out a few people.

She led the way downstairs.

At this moment, adventurers within the Adventurer’s Guild stationed there were staring at each other, bewildered.

The huge explosion noise heard clearly from the outside square earlier had caught them.

They were just a bit slow to react.

This is the Adventurer’s Guild after all, the largest human organization in this world; who would dare directly attack it?

Even a hundred lives wouldn’t be enough.

”Thump, thump, thump!”

Amidst many adventurers repeatedly consulting with counter staff on specific circumstances, the hall was filled with uneasy whispers.

A deep and forceful footstep sound like a heartbeat rhythm resonated from the stairway leading to higher levels.

All adventurers involuntarily turned towards the sound.

A notably tall figure, far beyond the average human scope, was slowly descending from the shadow of the stairs.

”It’s the president!”

”The president is here!”
