Mage Adam

Chapter 209: Arrival of The Mages



A mountain chain exploded with a thunderous crash. In front of Adam appeared a gigantic level-four radioactive creature, as massive as the mountains themselves. It roared with excited fervor.

"Pure, advanced energy! Such an intoxicating aroma. You, an insect, don't deserve this kind of power!"

Terrifying and revolting tentacles struck from the earth, the sky, and every side, forming a dense net, blocking Adam's way. The tentacles, with eyes and mouths, shot out all sorts of horrifying poisons and rays, completely sealing the area.

"Give up, insect. Just stop, or I might accidentally kill you."

Adam stood still in the sky. Lightning coiled around him, piercing through many tentacles, but their energy waves neutralized it.

The monster didn't care about its physical loss. It ate the broken tentacles and grew new ones. Pleased, it said, "Yes, that's right. Follow me, give up the secret of this high energy. Maybe Lord Nasanir will let you live."

This was a major crisis. It was a sheer battle of quantity. Although Adam had infinite magic for now, his body could only hold so much. In this energy fight, even higher magic couldn't win.

The devil stopped talking. He knew that survival or death depended on whether Adam could break the last barrier quickly. The dimensional rift was right behind the monster's mountainous body. The devil gave Adam full control of his body and soul.

Adam's eyes were a deep blue, icy, emotionless. He was calculating how to escape.

The radioactive monster wouldn't kill him unless it had to. That was Adam's biggest reliance for now. He had one chance to use all his power to catch the monster off guard.

Magic began to surge. Adam tried to find a stable spatial coordinate in the unstable space. It didn't need to be far, just past the current blockade.

The monster's voice thundered. Its body shook as if breathing. Then, it said, intoxicated, "Yes, this is the aroma. Pure, harmless, higher than the energy we use. This is the energy we're after!"

Energy beams hit around Adam. His mage armor shone, protecting him, but his magic became unstable as the creature tried to break his spell.

"You might not know what you're doing, but you're too weak. You can't do anything in front of me. Don't struggle pointlessly, little bug."

The ground rumbled loudly. The level-four creature, like a moving disaster, caused the earth to shake with every movement. Its tentacles multiplied, slowly encircling Adam.

"Du is a fool to have let you escape, but I am not. Your tricks won't work, unless you want to be torn apart by the storm." The creature, not wanting to push Adam too hard for fear he might self-destruct, continually gathered more energy to disturb the space. "You're not from the dragon world. Tell me where you come from."

Suddenly, a Thunder Domain, Silencing Storm, and Elemental Energy Missiles exploded right in front of Adam. Using almost self-destructive methods, Adam cleared the radioactive energy for a moment and then vanished from the spot.

The creature roared in fury, "Insect, you're courting death!"

Tentacles exploded beside it, its energy field covering the surroundings. Any anomaly was instantly detected.

As soon as the explosion occurred, Adam's body appeared there.

Adam waved his magic wand as quickly as possible, materializing the magnetic field to buy himself a moment.

Activating Blink, Adam stepped into the void, reaching the second coordinate. He was two steps away from breaking the encirclement.

"You can't escape!" The roar shook the heavens, and rays penetrated the void, drying up everything in the area.

The more critical the moment, the more rational and calm Adam became. Logical thinking completely replaced his thoughts. As the rays approached, Adam quickly constructed a spell. An elemental body appeared in front of him, taking the hit.

His Blink couldn't withstand the disturbance anymore. Adam rapidly tore open a teleportation scroll, ignoring the damage caused by the turbulent energy cutting through his mage armor, and vanished again.

He appeared behind the creature, less than a kilometer away from a dimensional rift.

The creature went into a complete frenzy, unable to bear the sight of an insect escaping before its eyes. Rage replaced its reason. Terrifying energy fluctuations brought about catastrophic changes in the weather and environment. Monsters' shadows, like continuous dark clouds, poured down with the radiation rain.

Adam didn't look back, even for a moment. He gathered all his magical power, creating numerous lightning coils around his body. Then, he spun, charging towards the dimensional rift like a bolt of lightning.

However, the tentacle was faster than Adam. Just as he started to move, a huge tentacle pierced through the creature's body.

Covered in disgusting blood, it heavily smashed down in front of the dimensional rift. The ground shattered inch by inch, forming a terrifying pit.

Soil and rocks crystallized, and the shockwave dispersed the energy around Adam, sweeping him into the sky.

His mage armor didn't last even a second. Pure kinetic impact nearly shattered Adam's body, blood spurting from every part of him like fountains.

Adam was gravely injured, but his logical thinking remained intact. Struggling, he maintained his position, not getting pulled in by the massive creature's gravitational pull, and then he grabbed the spatial anchor.

His magic wand was shattered. The devil, awakening from its dormancy and not minding its own disfigured body, trembled and said, "Transcendent creature! It's a transcendent creature!"

***Boom!***

Another tentacle struck, turning the fourth-level creature's body into a liquid. Adam looked up to see a sphere supported by countless tentacles harshly descending, sweeping towards him.

At that moment, the spatial anchor slowly rose. Advanced energy enveloped Adam's entire body, blocking the tentacle. Then a beam of light shot into the sky, piercing the radiation-covered heavens. Every creature of Cthulhu, including the transcendent lord in front of him, heard a voice from the depths of the void.

"Locking coordinates of Cthulhu."

"Transcendent strike incoming."

A vicious tear opened in the void, and a light brighter than the sun dispelled the radiation's gloom, striking the transcendent lord's body.
