Earth's Greatest Magus

Just before the arrival of the elven spaceship on the planet, at the north gate of the compound, two grand magus figures were relentlessly attacking each other. In the devastated area around the two of them, tens of magus were also in a fierce battle.

Even though the human side was on the cusp of winning the magus battle, realizing that their time was running out, Delbrand, who until now had still not been able to defeat his opponent, was forced to make a difficult choice.

“Retreat! Everyone, follow me!”

Seeing this, the half blood grand magus, Zenonia let out a smile on her pale face as she decided to let the several surviving dark elf chase after the retreating Magus Academy group. In the meantime, she herself decided to stay behind.

The female grand magus decided it was more important to check on the situation in the compound and with Delbrand leaving to lead the retreat, she was finally able to use her spatial spell. However, just as she was about to cast a spell, her body suddenly staggered backwards as she spat out a mouthful of blood.

It was apparent that her battle against the renowned Ghost of Lymhurst had taken a toll on her.

Clenching her teeth, she changed her plan slightly and decided to [Blink] to one of the tallest buildings, where she would focus on recovering her condition while simultaneously using her senses to observe the current situation.

A moment later, her expression suddenly changed when she found out she could no longer detect the presence of the VIP captive she kept in the compound. She clenched her fists as her mouth growled in annoyance.

“Dammit! How did he get out?!”

Recalling the special cell she had prepared for the supreme being, Zenonia quickly realized the probable culprit that would have dared do this. In fact, the only person she knew who could do this.

“I swear I am going to find you, boy! Wherever you are!”

Moments later, Zenoina’s figure quickly disappeared, leaving the gate where the bloody battle had taken place desolate without a shadow to be seen.

Dozens of miles away, Delbrand was leading the magus group and two acolytes away from the north gate as they made their way towards the west gate to ensure the thousand acolytes there would be able to escape the planet safely.

Along the way, the expressions on Delbrand and the other magus’ faces turned sour when they finally sensed the arrival of the dark elf ship, the Battle Star class, one of the largest warships the elves had in their hands.

Descending on top of the compound, the elven warship was at the very least four hundred miles away from the group; knowing the escaping acolytes would be an easy target for them, Delbrand knew they had to reach the acolytes first.

“Let’s hurry!”

It took Delbrand and the others a few minutes to finally arrive at their destination.

They were greeted by the sight of a battle between the thousand acolytes against the elven magus guards. Not only that, a massive horde of tens of thousands of Nightwalkers could be seen at their back.

“You all know what to do, Go!” Delbrand gave the order to the rest of magus.

With their situation where they were overwhelmed by the enemies, the arrival of twenty magus was certainly great news for these acolytes.

Moving faster than their colleagues, the two female magus instructors, Minerva and Carla, joined their hands together to cast a collaborative Tier 7 water spell [Tsunami Wave]. The spell spawned two gigantic bodies of water that flooded with force and crushed the Nightwalkers from two sides, pushing the rest away, giving the escaping acolytes some much-needed time.

While some also jumped in to assist the two female magus helping the acolytes, several other magus headed straight for the gate, where they provided assistance to Mahinder, who was fiercely leading the attack against the magus guards. With the magus help, the monk was finally able to destroy the west gate’s power crystal, creating tears on the barrier.

“Hurry! Go in this way!”

As the acolytes were all scurrying to leave the gate, being outside of the compound barrier finally allowed the special vest they wore to do its job. Gradually, bright lights enveloped the acolytes as they were teleported away, albeit slowly.

Delbrand could be seen hovering at the rear of the moving groups of acolytes. Beside him were several other magus, who had prepared themselves, knowing very well what was coming for them.

Other than the half a dozen dark elf magus that were still chasing them like rabid dogs, the one that gave them most concern were the elves’ reinforcement.

A few dozens of triangular shaped elven fighter ships were already streaking through the air, heading in their direction at great speed.

“Prepare your defensive spells! Protect the acolytes!” Delbrand shouted as he roused the spirit energy within his body.

In response to those words, Magus Darius beckoned one of the magus whose affinity was earth element. Together, they created a towering stone wall that covered a one mile radius area around the gate.

Another magus also took action and cast [Smoke Mist], conjuring a blanket of gray mist over the surrounding area that concealed the figures of the acolytes below. The remaining magus hovered in the air alongside each other, ready to confront the approaching fighter ships.

Solemn expressions were seen on their faces, because they knew that each of those approaching ships had the firepower strong enough to severely injure a magus-level figure. Disastrous results would only come if they allowed them to freely attack the acolytes.

The ships swiftly arrived and Delbrand promptly took action. He cast his powerful tier 8 spell.

[Cataclysm Smoke]

Clouds of dark smoke appeared out of thin air and coalesced into a massive body. It moved as if it were a living being, intercepting the incoming elven ships and destroying all that entered its proximity.

As for those who managed to steer away in time after seeing the fate of their comrades, their fate was no better as they were quickly welcomed by attacks from the other magus.

Kaleidoscopic explosions could be seen covering the sky as elven ships and human magus alike started falling to the ground.

Although they had managed to intercept most of the bombardment, due to the sheer number of ships the elves dispatched, several still managed to get through and shot toward the acolytes who were running toward the gates.

Some unfortunate acolytes got caught and their bodies disintegrated into ashes.

“Run! Quickly! Run!’
