Chapter 147 Sudden Transformation

Sweet, with a hint of a sour aftertaste.

That was the goblin's thought after taking a handful of water from the river of destiny, but strangely enough, nothing apart from the taste nothing else seemed to happen.

"Could it be that I drank a fake river of destiny?"

Smacking his lips, the goblin couldn't help but think something was wrong.

However, considering the words of his future self he quickly shook his head.

"Now's not the time for that, let's quickly drink the other In case something happens!"

Remembering the thirty seconds time limit the goblin quickly went to the next river beside him

The river of time!

Looking at the river which had allowed him to talk to his future self not too long ago, the goblin sighed in remembrance

"Future me, although I don't know how you became so strong, and why you said I should beware of the Gods"

"But if I do become stronger after this, the first thing I have to do is go back to the tribe!"

"Maybe then I can fulfill my dream of becoming the number one tribal warrior."

Solemnly clenching his fists, the goblin spoke about his hopes and dreams to the river.

As someone who had always been taunted for being weak, one of his major goals has always been to prove them wrong.

Due to this, although he knew he had no strength, the goblin would always follow the hunting squad whenever they went out.

Now thinking of his future self that seemed so powerful, the goblin began to wonder if he achieved their dream

Unfortunately, the future self could no longer answer.

*Gulp!*

Repeating the same process as he did with the first river, the goblin knelt down and took a handful from the river before gulping it down.

Hot!!

Gulping it down, that was the only thing going on in the goblin's mind right now.

Unlike after taking from the first river which only seemed to have a strong aftertaste, after taking from the river of time, the goblin's body began to strangle heat up.

"Hot! Hot!"

"Damn! Future self, why didn't you tell me any of this before disappearing!"

Cursing his future self, the goblin began to feel dizzy as different symptoms started to arise.

His vision became hazy with images blurring it from time to time.

His legs became wobbly as it looked difficult for him to stand firm.

Beads of sweat ran down all over his body making him look like he had a major fever.

Not only that, but as the seconds flew, new symptoms began to pop up out of nowhere heavily complicating the goblin's state

"Damn it! I can't die here!"

"How could the goblin who was supposedly meant to suppress an era die in such an unknown place!"

Gritting his teeth, the goblin struggled to stay on his feet.

Now about fifteen seconds had passed since he had been suddenly attacked by various ailments.

According to his future self, if he doesn't make it to the river of history and drink in it in the next fifteen seconds, then his death is assured!

Thinking of this, the goblin's eyes became firm

"One"

"Two"

"Three"

"Four"

"Five"

Counting each second that passed, the goblin slowly made his way to the river of history.

"Ten!"

Luckily, to his surprise, although struggling to walk, he made it to the banks of the river of history in the tenth second.

*I made it!* Thought the goblin with a smile.

However, realising he hadn't drunk it yet and five seconds remained, he quickly sprung into action.

The endless river of history.

Unlike the only two rivers, this was the only one which after just taking a slight peek made him almost lose his mind.

Thinking of the state he was in last time after taking a look at it, the goblins figure shivered slightly.

"Thankfully I have a plan this time"

Getting ready to drink from the river, the goblin first got into position before closing his eyes.

Yes! Closing his eyes.

This was the goblins' plan to avoid what happened last time, by closing his eyes, maybe he could succeed in avoiding making contact with those images again.

So with this plan in mind, the goblin, after closing his eyes, knelt down and took a handful from the river.

"Gulp!"

Following the process of the other two, after taking a handful, he quickly gulped it into his mouth.

*Boom!*

With the entrance of the last river history into his mouth, an unprecedented change began to occur in the goblin's body.

*Ba-dump!*

*Ba-dump!*

*Ba-dump!*

With loud bangs, the goblin's heart began to beat loudly echoing all over his surroundings

His temperature which was already extremely high began to fluctuate sometimes becoming so hot that steam could be seen in the air

Other times so cold that a layer of ice mist formed around where he stood.

However, if that wasn't enough, what happened next left the goblin truly in agony.

*Crack*

*Crunch*

With loud sounds, the goblin's bones began to crack and crunch as a total reformation seemed to be in process.

Muscles expanded and contracted making it look like there was something alive squirming underneath his flesh.

"Arghh!!!"

Kneeling down in pain, the goblin let out a scream of agony as it felt like he was about to die.

Many times he almost fainted, however, a voice at the back of his mind kept telling him that if he fainted during this process he would die for real.

Hearing this voice, the goblin although in serious pain was unwilling to take such a risk

"Splat!"

Taking the dagger he had brought along for hunting, the goblin stabbed himself in the thigh just when he was about to faint.

Feeling the shock brought about by the stab, the goblin who was already at the brink eyes soon cleared.

"Haha isn't it just to stab myself a few more times, as long as I survive this then it's worth it!"

With a hint of madness in his eyes, feeling the success of the earlier stab, the goblin continued to stab himself whenever he felt like fainting

Following this process, soon all that was left was a goblin screaming in agony while stabbing himself from time to time.
