Mage Adam

Chapter 201: Fake Power



Priscilla was not surprised by the decision, and said to Adam, "Okay, during this period, the Mage Network will open up some energy channels for you. The magic power you consume will be instantly replenished by the Mage Network, ensuring that your combat power can be maintained at its peak."

Adam was slightly taken aback, because he had never expected such support. With the help of the Mage Network, as long as his mental strength wasn't exhausted, he would be like a mobile turret with unlimited firepower.

"All your movements will be monitored by the Mage Network. The paths you take and the resources you see will all be uploaded."

"Of course," Adam replied.

Priscilla nodded in satisfaction: "Then good luck, Mage Adam. I look forward to personally rewarding you after the war ends." With that, she cut off the communication.

At this moment, Adam stood at the edge of the world, his armor perfectly defending against the void storm, allowing him to face the dimensional rift closely.

The rift was continuously spewing monsters. They were fearless and relentless, stepping on the charred corpses of their kin without any fear, charging into Adam's multiple thunder domains. Adam could see that even stronger monsters were maintaining the stability of the rift.

Their energy beams, once they reached the magnetic field, got weaker step by step, not really threatening Adam.

"Silencing Storm."

Adam lifted his magic wand, and light from the runes shot into the sky. A thundercloud quickly covered the rift, gathering electric charges from the space. The static field and strong magnetic field worked together, creating powerful currents. The Cthulhu creatures were killed instantly when they came out of the rift, and the radioactive radiation from their bodies couldn't hurt Adam because of the magnetic field.

Adam's earlier guess was right; electromagnetic magic was very effective against the Cthulhu world's monsters.

'*So staying here isn't as dangerous as the Tower thinks as long as I don't bother transcendent beings. Normal monsters aren't much stronger than regular life to me,*' Adam thought, figuring out the power difference between him and his enemies. '*Also, the Mage Network's support gives me almost endless energy.*'

The devil had a bad feeling. "Master, you're not planning to go into Cthulhu, are you?"

Adam nodded. "Yes."

"But master, remember, there might be more than one transcendent monster in Cthulhu's world. If they're much more powerful, they may crush you like you crush their kin here."

Adam understood the devil's concerns, but he was too drawn to Cthulhu's mysteries. Conquering Cthulhu could help him quickly prove the existence of electrons and maybe even higher-level photons. There was also the important "mass-energy conversion equation" to consider.

Despite the devil's attempts to persuade him otherwise, Adam had made his decision. After powering up the Silencing Storm to last for a long time, he left the edge of the world.

The destruction of this plane wouldn't happen right away; the powerful monsters of Cthulhu would take some time to fully enter the Dragon Plane. During this period, he needed to gather resources and captives for looting.

After seeing the apocalypse, all creatures in the Dragon Plane went crazy.

The sudden increase in their strength made them more powerful. Even though the intelligent races knew this strength was just an illusion and that they could explode due to their own power one day, nobody wanted to lose their power. The choice was simple: giving up power meant certain death, but keeping it meant a chance to survive.

They lost their minds and started fighting each other fiercely. When they realized that killing their own kind made them stronger, this madness became uncontrollable.

After a long time, the races of the Dragon Plane received the 'blessing' of the origin again. Each time they absorbed energy, they also took in parts of the origin. This was the origin's way of resisting invasion: it would rather vanish completely than be consumed.

The Dragon Slayer Guild showed its true strength. There were no more war or peace-seekers. United, they started preparing for the King of Cthulhu's arrival.

The slaughter was endless and random. They had to protect the Dragon Plane's origin as much as they could. Now, any foreign race was an enemy.

This was true not just for ordinary races but also for the mighty Dragon race.

As a naturally rebellious race that had betrayed other races several times, their situation was extremely hard at this time. They had power to turn the tide, but other races of the plane wouldn't cooperate with them. In Cthulhu, the Dragon race was listed as the top species to be exterminated.

If they couldn't find a way to leave the world, they would be doomed.

"Where's Okov? Where's that Frost Dragon?"

"Okov wants to keep the other world to himself. Damn! He must face the worst punishment!"

In their desperation, any small hope mattered. Almost at the same time, the Dragon race thought of 'Chris Frost.'

"Find them! Learn the secrets of the other world. It's our only chance!"

No dragon thought 'Chris' could escape from Okov. They assumed Okov selfishly kept the other world to himself, until they found Okov's torn apart dragon body in the wilderness.

...

"Master, the forest elves need help. They think they're being targeted. Both the Dragon race and monsters are looking for them," the devil told Adam.

It was clear that the forest elves had connections with Adam. The Dragon Slayer Guild had used Lina before, so it made sense for the Dragon race, which had just ended its good relationship with the Guild, to go after the forest elves.

"Where are they now?"

The devil checked and said, "They're in Okov's territory, at the ruins of The Greenleaf Tribe."

Adam was surprised that they were hiding there of all places. The idea of 'the most dangerous place is the safest' didn't work with the Dragon race. These lazy creatures would surely go back to their home right after catching their prey, a habit all dragons had.

"Master, Lina has felt the power of dragons. Many dragons have surrounded the Makalu Mountains. They're about to find them."

"Many?"

"Lina thinks there's more than one, but she didn't send anyone to check."

Adam told the devil to find Lina's location through their pact and then teleported to the Greenleaf Tribe. With the Mage Network's energy support, the big magic use for moving through space wasn't a problem anymore. This made Adam's traveling and fighting much easier.

Half a day later, Adam got to the edge of the Makalu Mountains and saw five large dragons flying in the sky, showing their power."
