Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 821 - Warlock



Chapter 821 - Warlock

Boommm!! Boooom!!

The sounds of crash after crash could be heard throughout the building, as a result of a huge metallic snake crushing its body, when it tried to chase after a blinking figure.

The whole prison facility had turned to chaos. Everyone was in a state of panic, as they witnessed the enormous metallic snake slithering around dangerously. Some people in the prison were screaming for help, while some were actually screaming wildly excited, knowing the warden was engaged in a fight.

"Kill that fucking snake! Kill it! Kill!"

The situation was getting worse, realizing the fact the saint guards were mostly unconscious, it became clear everything was in complete disarray. Moreover, the dozen lower realm serpent guards were not able to keep such chaos under control.

From a distance, Emery realized he was making such a mess of this place. However, now that the warden had given all of his best, it would be rude not to return the favor, wouldn't it?

Those were thoughts running through Emery's brain, while dodging the huge serpent attack.

Despite the fact Emery was able to take full control of his fey transformation, he may not have realized he was becoming more aggressive. caring less about things around him while he was in such form.

Because of the transformation, he was flooded with the desire to fight. He was experiencing this peculiar sensation of being excited to fight the humongous magus-level creature in front of him.

Swwisshhhh!

[Blink]

Although the warden was only a crescent stage magus, Emery expected with his transformation, he would have at the very least upgraded to half-moon magus battle power, which was equal to approximately 300 battle power or possibly even close to 400 battle power after his change.

After all, during this battle, it appeared his 300-plus agility was not enough to dodge all of the huge creature's attacks, despite his best efforts. His situation became more dire, forcing him to rely on his space magic [Blink].

The great thing about this [Twilight Transformation] was that it allowed him to have the best of two worlds: both physical and magical. As a result, he could dodge faster, while able to cast his [blink] spell repetitively.

However, he was aware that although this transformation had great advantages, it also had a negative side effect, as it drained so much of his spirit pool. He reckoned he would only be able to keep going for 10 minutes at most. Hence, he needed to end this fight as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, dealing with the magus was not a simple task to say the least. As a matter of fact, the magus metal scales were so strong his tier 4 sword was only able to create scratches and light wounds on it. Emery realized there was no use to keep fighting this way and decided to use his strongest attack on the creature.

He gathered all the spirit forces he had and channeled them into the sword, unleashing the [Shadow Edge] sword art skill that dashed into the creature.

Spllaattt!!

The powerful sword slash was able to create a large cut into the creature's metallic body, but it still wasn't enough to stop it.

After dodging with [Blink] Emery cast another of his [Shadow Edge] only to find his tier 4 sword had finally cracked. He, after all, had been using the sword for the skill a dozen times already, it was unfortunate for it to break during such a fight.

Hence, he made the decision to devise a new strategy. This time, he was using his innate weapon.

[Blade Claw]

In an instant, six blades came out of his knuckles and this time he blinked towards the back of the snake. The moment after, Emery unleashed the full strength of a punch with the blade claw.

Spllaaatt!! Spllaaatt!!

The fact it was attached to his knuckle allowed Emery to pierce the blade with his maximum strength. It was at this point he took advantage of his opportunity and successfully pierced the metal skin with all six arm-length blades that he wielded.

Sssssssss!!

The huge snake screamed in pain while Emery smiled excitedly. The snake's body started to swirl, signaling it was the perfect time for him to dodge. However, his hand was still stuck inside too deep and was unable to break free.

"Dammit!"

The snakehead swiveled around, ready to bite his body into two. Realizing he was in danger, Emery quickly put all of his strength to his feet and tried to kick as strong as he could. Luckily, he was able to pull out at the last second.

[Blink]

It was a close one, but at least he knew such an attack was definitely effective.

Since it was the most effective attack for the moment, he attempted to do the same act twice and was successful in severely wounding the snake. Nevertheless, this kind of attack was unable to really stop it.

Even though he did try to aim for the eyes or a more sensitive part of the snake, when he got close to the snake's head, it would spew out powerful flaming lava, which was hot enough to burn his jade skin down to his bones.

Now, he was only a few minutes away from having his spirit pool emptied out completely, while he had not found the most effective way to finish the snake off.

It was in such a situation his two cores suddenly reacted to the strange energy that floated between them, the one that emerged during his upgrade.

However, it was not the time to experiment with things. Emery had to come up with a new strategy to at least give one critical attack to the metallic snake. As a result, he used [Jade Root] to stop the huge snake and gave himself the second he needed to [Blink] to the top of the snake's head.

"This is it!" He exclaimed.

At the precise moment, Emery pierced his claws into its head and the creature hissed in pain. Since he was hitting it on its critical spot, it was definitely hurt.

However, the moment after he unleashed the attack, his spirit pool was also emptied and his transformation was about to end any second.

Strangely, the mist of energy that had been gathering outside of his two cores kicked in and with it, suddenly another message came to his mind.

[Fey Warlock innate skill activated]

[Spirit Devour]

To his surprise, Emery could feel the energy rushing into his body flooding from the snake. It was strange he could feel it flowing through his claws.

The metal flaming snake was writhing in pain like never before. In order to hold himself to not fall, he held on to the claws inside the snake's head; because of this, more energy was flooding into him, building up just outside of his two cores.

Within less than a minute, the snake had collapsed in pain. Realizing the warden was unable to fight anymore, Emery pulled off his claw. Even though the huge snake had not returned to his human yet, Emery knew it was panting in pain.

A moment later, Emery could feel a dozen magus level individuals charging into the facility. They must be the reinforcement who came to check the prison condition. When they saw the huge snake in such condition, all the magus turned to rage. Another fight was about to start if it wasn't for another figure that came with them.

It was Vizla, he came in confusion and as he saw the chaos happening in this place, he immediately asked, "Emery, what did you do?"
