Mage Adam

Chapter 272: War! War! War! (3)

The lightsaber was tiny compared to the huge Metal Eater's body, and so did the Metal Eater think.

As all the spikes and tentacles on the Metal Eater's body stood up, beams of light in different colors shot towards Adam. The Metal Eater wanted to teach this small creature a painful lesson.

Adam didn't dodge. His hands, holding the saber, were steady. He struck down firmly.

The sword light split the world in two. In that instant, Adam stood apart from Titania's plane. Under the effect of two fields, Adam appeared in multiple places within the divided space, each a mirror image, reflecting and deflecting. Though the energy beams passed through where Adam was, they didn't harm him at all.

Countless colorful little fairies appeared along the path of the sword light. They danced and cheered in groups, then disappeared into the sword light, making time and space pause for a moment.

The Metal Eater's fierce spikes and tentacles paused. Then all the tentacles detached from its body, exploded into fragments, and left it completely bare.

Blood splattered everywhere.

Maybe losing one limb was nothing to it, but losing all its tentacles at once was too much. The pain made it scream uncontrollably.

The terrifying sound waves couldn't penetrate the split between worlds.

As solid energy flowed through it, complex patterns appeared in its eyes---a bright point at the center with thousands of lines twisting, some clockwise and others counterclockwise. Then they turned three-dimensional like a kaleidoscope.

Energy quickly completed a cycle through all the lines, gathering at the center, disturbing the void.

"Death Gaze!" the Metal Eater roared, "Perish under the wrath of Father!"

Adam lightly thrust his sword forward.

A cold glimmer arrived first, followed by a light seeming endless.

The Death Gaze, just shot out, had its path cut off. But energy cannot disappear into nothing, so it returns to its source, entering the Metal Eater's body.

Its wriggling body stiffened suddenly, straightening like an insect skewered on a stick. Then a strange transformation occurred: its flesh turned to stone, then weathered away bit by bit.

The power of the Death Gaze remained strong. After piercing through its body, it hit the pyramid altar. The same strange transformation happened to the altar.

The Metal Eater destroyed its holy altar by itself.

"The power's yours only when you can fully harness it, you know that? Look at what you've done."

The Metal Eater's life force was incredible. Even after such a heavy blow, it wasn't dead. The flame within its tumor burned less fiercely but showed no signs of going out.

"You pitiful creature!"

"You are finished. You and the world behind you are both finished!"

"When I become a god, you..."

At that moment, a message came from the long-silent spatial anchor, "Coordinate analysis progress, twenty percent."

Adam pursed his lips and sighed softly, "So ignorant."

Then, he spun and struck with his sword, cutting down the silent attack of another creature from behind.

He looked at the partially collapsed magic construct on his body with some regret. It seemed he would suffer great losses this time---at least this carefully made equipment would be lost.

Adam now confirmed that he could kill a single transcendent Metal Eater without getting hurt much, but dealing with two would be beyond his power.

"Master, got another one here, run!"

"I haven't reached my limit. I will kill them all."

Adam swallowed Garfield's Flame. All his threads went into standby mode. He used his pact to summon creatures, gathering all units he could control with computing power, entering overclock mode.

In the power core of his magic construct, the Original Flames burned at overload. The construct liquefied, vaporized, and then turned into energy, all pouring into the Flames. The energy flowed into his Electro True Self attached to a large number of ether crystals. His saber shone brightly, flickering in and out in all directions.

Adam's energy reserves at this moment surpassed the level-three limit, directly reaching the peak of level four. Tangible magic power swirled into a vortex, violently disturbing the environment, turning around space into pieces, dancing with the storm vortex.

The Metal Eater in front of him fell silent, wriggling back in panic; it sensed death approaching.

The second Metal Eater, hidden in the gaps and creeping toward Adam, suddenly stopped and turned to flee.

But it was all useless.

"Now you want to leave? Too late."Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆lbin(.)com

"Slash of Judgement!"

"In the name of Mage Adam, I sentence you to death."

Adam held the lightsaber with both hands and stabbed downward heavily. The sword tip met a void barrier, producing a series of crisp sounds. Then, from that point, space shattered like glass, with fragments rolling out endlessly.

The two transcendent Metal Eaters couldn't even utter their final words before becoming fragments along with the shattered space.

A blinding light exploded, and the energy shockwave spread far and wide. Adam's strike shattered the space rules of Titania, turning a hundred-kilometer radius into void.

Then, he saw a 'sun' of mixed light and darkness, and within it, a giant insect with countless mouths and eyes, coldly staring at him.

The insect opened its mouth, but Adam waved his hand.

"Hello, and goodbye, Devourer."

The space rules reshaped, filling the void and blocking the Devourer's potential attack.

Spatial anchor sent a message again, "coordinate analysis progress, fifty percent."

Adam returned to the material world, and everything around him was renewed, with all the Metal Eaters gone.

He spat out Garfield.

"Master, you... That is sick, man!" Garfield was stunned, speaking without thinking.

Adam exited overclock mode. His Electro True Self scattered, and his soul's aura fluctuated unstably. Magic leaked continuously from his damaged body, and he could only stay afloat using telekinesis.

Using his last bit of strength, he took a body from his personal space and handed it to Garfield, saying, "Go and join Iron 27."

Now, there were only three minutes left of the thirty-minute limit.

...

In the Land of Divine Revelation...

The Fifth Angel furiously tore apart the transcendent Metal Eater he used for communication. He didn't even care that his territory was wiped out; he only roared, "Damn it! Damn it! That intruder destroyed the altar! Father's altar!"
