Earth's Greatest Magus
chapter-1328-30041322

"We can't hold this much longer! Where the hell is the supreme commander?!"

With the two elven massive warships and hundreds of triangular elven fighter jets deployed, the dark elves took over the skies in a matter of minutes.

Dozens of human magus streaked through the sky towards the elves, but they were unable to break through their defenses.With no impediments, the huge warships continued to fire their cannons, unleashing an inferno of death and destruction upon those on the ground.

"We need to stop that warship!" Shouted Grand Magus Sinnure as his barrier seemed unable to hold much longer.

With the grand magus on the humans' side stretched thin fighting eight formidable dark elf grand magus on the ground, Grand Magus Ororo of the Lightning Institute and Lilith of the Dark Salamander were forced to take action by themselves without any support.

Their figures soared high into the sky heading straight towards the two elven warships.

One was akin to the living embodiment of lightning, while the other was of fire. Both streaked through the air like an unstoppable force, killing dozens of elves and destroying countless elven jets that got in their way. Their intention to destroy the two elven warships was palpable, only to be stopped short by two dark elf grand magus coming out of the warships.

Clashes quickly occurred between the four powerful figures, whose aftermaths were enough to claim dozens of lives, who were unlucky to be near them.

KABOOOMMMM!

Both humans and elves alike fell without knowing what hit them, while several elven jets were sent crashing to the ground towards the remaining civilians.

Luckily, right before the jets could take helpless civilians, they were suddenly enveloped in a flash of light. All of their figures disappeared a moment later, teleported elsewhere.

Emery watched all the events that took place within the academy's boundaries with great detail as he continued to search for and remove the civilians who were at the highest risk. In his current state of omniscience , he couldn't help but feel his heart turn heavy as he realized the humans were losing.

However, despite the overwhelming odds against them and the certain fact that they could die, many still bravely stood up and courageously resisted the invaders with all they had. Among these warriors, there was one particular group noticeably more ferocious than the rest.

As veterans on the battlefield, the Battleborn were certainly used to such chaos. Under the leadership of Izta, their proud and brave battle commander, they all fought in harmonious cohesion as if they were hunters in their natural habitat.

Thanks to his former status as one of the five guardians of the combat magus and the fact he held the Champion of the realm title, most of the acolytes, instructors, and even civilians knew about him.

"Battleborn! Follow me! We will take down those two ships!"

Izta's loud voice echoed through the air and was quickly met by a deafening battle cry.

"Hoooyaaaa!"

For this task, Izta chose his best warriors: Magus Silica, Camila, and Grisa. His three wives, together with a dozen of his trusted magus subordinates and three hundred of his veteran warriors, all shot into the sky towards the two elven warships that hovered next to each other.

"Attack!"

As his form rapidly traversed the horizon, his hand drew several huge arrows and quickly shot at the enemy. The spear-like arrows roared thunderously as they sliced through the air, piercing through all the elves standing between them and the crimson warships.

Halfway through the journey, dozens of the triangular elven jets came rushing towards Izta and his army. However, they were completely obliterated before they could get any closer.

Kabooommm! Kabooomm! Kaboooom!

A pitch-black warship arrived with timely support, firing all of its cannons to pave a direct path for the Battleborn. Undeterred by the explosions happening around them, the men of the Battleborn continued their approach to the elven warship by attaching themselves onto the Dreadnought, using the warships' shield to protect themselves from the enemy's bombardments.

Kabooommm! Kabooomm! Kaboooom!

The Battleborn ferociously pierced through the obstacles like an unstoppable spear, with Izta leading the way at the point of the blade. Deafening roars followed in their wake as they continued to relentlessly bulldoze everything that stood in their way.

Ten miles…

Five miles…

Two miles. They had reached a distance that no one else could.

This achievement was a double edged sword however as Izta and his men quickly became the primary target of the Elves.

One of the dark elf grand magus, who was able to overpower Grand Magus Ororo with ease, decided to fly back when he saw this. It was apparent he intended to stop the unexpected move of this bunch of Battleborn warriors.

"You shall not pass!" He loudly shouted. The sky loudly rumbled as he cast the Tier 8 fire element spell he prepared.

[Meteor Storm]

Hundreds of molten rocks covered in wildly blazing flames formed out of thin air before swiftly falling like rain straight towards Izta and his men. The Dreadnought quickly blocked the spell, but the barrier surrounding the ship shattered as the molten rocks struck.

Kabooommm! Kabooomm! Kaboooom!

A moment later, Izta could hear the voice of his first wife and vice commander of the ship from his earpiece.

"We have no more energy for shields or weapons. We are ready for your next command!"

Upon hearing that, Izta decisively said, "Push through! Full speed!"

A third of the meteors that fell managed to land on the pitch-dark warship and damaged it quite badly, as many melted flaming holes were visible on its hull. Nevertheless, the warriors within the Dreadnought still obeyed its commander's decision.

Meanwhile, the dark elf grand magus continued conjuring the destructive molten meteors, hurling them at Izta and his men ferociously.

In the absence of the warship's shield, the magus of the Battleborn all came together, combining the strongest skills they possessed to deal with the incoming threats. Some unleashed powerful offensive spells in hopes of destroying the molten rock, while others formed barriers of various elements.

Baammm!! Bammm!! Bammm!!

Seeing the target within reach and his brethren and wives hurt by the enemy, lord Izta Gilgamesh let out a chuckle unbefitting of the situation, "Enkidu… my friend.. Now is the time!"

In an instant, his body turned into a resplendent light, his muscles expanding to double their size as a powerful force rushed into him.

"Ughh! You shall taste the power of the strongest Magus of Earth!"

[Immortal Gate - stage 9]

[Battle power increased by 512]

[Battle power 625 (1137)]

This was the maximum limitation of the skill, one which he didn't plan to use until he reached the grand magus realm. Even so, nothing else mattered more than the present. With the safety of others in mind and the destruction of the enemy, Izta's figure turned into a brilliant beam of light as he charged towards the enemy.

His clenched fists moved with force as he crushed every molten rock in his path. His clothes and flesh were all set ablaze, but that only served to further inflame his fighting spirit as he made his way through forcefully, crashing straight into the dark elf grand magus.

A scream of disbelief escaped the proud dark elf's mouth. He was unable to fathom the fact he was currently being smashed and pushed back by a mere human of the magus realm.

BAAMMMM!!!

In a matter of seconds, Izta had pushed the dark elf grand magus into the closest elven warship. The collision penetrated the warship's defenses and resulted in a powerful explosion that crippled the warship.

As soon as he woke up from the shock he was in, the dark elf grand magus immediately struck back. He cast another fire spell which created a powerful burst of flames that burnt Izta's body entirely.

[Eradicate Flame]

But once again, he was stunned by his opponent.

Even though his whole body was engulfed in scorching flames, the great Gilgamesh still held the dark elf magus in both hands. The man laughed loudly, before he started banging his head a few times on the latter's nose, sending him staggering.

Baaaammm! Baaamm!

His flesh and bones could be seen melting and yet a smile remained on the combat magus' face, sending inexplicable chills down the dark elf grand magus' spine.

"Arggghh! You madman!"

Iit was at this moment that the grand magus realized the pitch-black warship was still charging towards his warship, right in his direction. Realizing the implication, his face instantly darkened.

"LET ME GO!!!"

Alas, there was nothing he could do. He could only watch as the ships crashed. The powerful collision split the crimson warship apart. However, it didn't stop there as they also collided with the second warship.

KAAAABOOOMMMMM!!!

Emery and the ground beneath his feet shuddered as he watched everything that was happening. It was the biggest explosion he had ever seen, and with his enhanced Spirit Reading, he quickly swept through the remnants of the explosion with anxiety.

Heis heart stop as he discovered he could no longer feel the life signature of his beloved senior.
