Earth's Greatest Magus
chapter-1503

Emery stepped into the crowd from the shadows, his figure swiftly moving between the miners as he aimed straight for the thin-looking man. One of the nearby magus guards got alarmed and stepped in to stop him by summoning a powerful ice wave.

The freezing spell held his advance and created a series of walls made of crystalized ice.

Unfortunately for them, that spell was far from enough to stop Emery. Even in a half-frozen state, he managed to break past the ice obstacles. He then swiftly smashed the magus away making use of his overwhelming strength.

When Emery arrived right in front of him, the middle-aged man was clearly shocked to see his face. But before he could say anything, Emery knocked him out of consciousness and quickly dashed out of the mine.

"He took the foreman away! Chase him!"

Three of the magus guards immediately went to chase after him, while the other three were forced to remain in the mine as with the man's consciousness slipping off reality, so did his control over the miners.

Even though the slender man's body hung limply on his shoulders, Emery still ran at such a speed that none of the guards along the way managed to notice what was happening before it was too late.

Emery ran at his full capacity for almost half an hour until he finally reached a small oasis in the middle of the desert more than a hundred miles away from the mine. Soon after, he lifted the unconscious man from his shoulders and threw his body into the oasis.

The water seemed to have brought him back to consciousness as it didn't take long for the man to wake up, exploding into a frenzy when he realized what Emery had done.

"What the fuck!! Who the hell are you?! Do you know what faction you are messing with right now!? You're gonna regret this!"

Unfortunately for him, Emery was completely unfazed by his threats. He calmly stood there with his arms crossed over each other as he spoke in a cold tone. "Just stay there! If you get out of that pond, I will kill you."

The man looked like he wanted to say something, but he immediately shut his mouth when he saw the icy look on Emery's face. Even though the latter didn't say anything, he could feel a chill run down his spine telling him the next words he spoke would bring him indescribable pain.

Moments later, Emery took his eyes off the thin man and turned around as he sensed the people who had just arrived. The three magus guards who were chasing him finally caught up, seeing this, the man regained his courage.

"Hahaha, you are dead! Dead!" Staring at the three magus, the man shouted with intense hatred. "All of you, kill him!"

All three were wolf half-blood magus and they immediately activated their transformation.

The only one with the pale skin of the three turned into a wolf with cerulean colored fur, a lean build and jagged frost spikes along all four of his limbs. As for the other two, their transformation was of a much larger build, their bodies covered with dark-colored rocks.

The three looked strong, but fortunately for Emery, with his Spirit Reading he could see that all three were just at the New Moon stage, with the ice element being slightly stronger.

The New Moon stage was considered the sign of an unsuccessfully breakthrough to the magus ream, hence they should not be too difficult to fight with. But still, fighting them three against one with his magic still out of commission would be quite a challenge for Emery.

However, he did not feel anxious at all. Because these three people would be perfect for his training.

As his gaze locked with theirs, Emery drew out his [Blade Claw], showing off his six blades that glistened in the desert sun to his opponents. He made a provocative gesture, taunting them to come and attack him.

"Huh! He still dared to act tough!" The huge rocky magus said annoyed.

However, the ice wolf had seen Emery's strength, so he told his comrades to be careful. All three of them slowly made their approach from different directions, closing in on Emery like hungry wolves cornering their prey.

The battle was started by the ice wolf magus, who cast the Tier 4 ice spell [Ice Wave]. As the name suggests, the spell manifested torrential ice waves capable of injuring and restraining one's movements.

Seeing that, Emery didn't plan to take the spell directly like before. Although it might not stop him, it was still very painful. However, just as he was about to move out of the way, he was surprised to find the ground he was standing on start trembling and two large hands grabbed his feet. It was the ability cast by one of the rock magus while the third one came slamming his fist.

This split-second error caused him to be blown up by the ice spell and smashed by a powerful fist. His body was hurtling several meters across the ground from such a heavy blow.

Emery could feel the blow he received contained nearly 200 battle power, one worthy of a magus' physical strength. Being a New Moon but having the Crescent Moon battle power was indeed the characteristic of half-blood magus.

Seeing Emery spat out blood, the thin man laughed boisterously as he casually walked out of the oasis saying, "I changed my mind! I don't want him dead. Instead, beat him until he was on the verge of death and get information out of him. I want to know who dares to play tricks on me."

All three magus nodded respectfully to the man. On the other hand, as he wiped the blood from his mouth, Emery gazed at the man and said, "I told you, not to get out of the pond."

The man looked slightly startled by Emery's words and quickly ordered his three magus to attack.

Once again the battle started, and just like before, the three magus assaulted Emery with great cohesion. They attacked while supporting and complementing each other's gaps, which was another advantage of wolf half-bloods who were able to communicate very well with their kin.

The fast-moving ice wolf with his annoying ice spells and the tough-skinned rock wolves capable of marking him left and right. But despite being beaten a few more times, Emery's blood boiled with excitement.

"Is that all you got?!"
