Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

[30 minutes until the stargate recharged]

Since the stargate was activated, the previously underground facility had been lifted up to the ground, turning into a one-mile construct that surrounded the formation at the center.

Currently, there were six magus fighting in the front yard of the facility, while Emery fought at the back entrance with the powerful half moon magus.

Bammm!!!!

Two heavy and fast dark metal chains smashed into Emery, powerful enough to throw his body and break the wall into the backyard. Emery groaned slightly in pain after that hit.

Fortunately, his jade armor, although it was cracked, was still enough to absorb the powerful hit, so he didn't get much damage to his body. As he stood up, the dark elf magus calmly walked out of the facility building saying,

"If you're trying to buy time for your friend to destroy the gate, don't put your hope up!"

Hearing the magus words, Emery had a hunch that something was strange here. He then quickly used his spirit reading and as expected, he did find that there was actually a hidden fifth magus.

This meant Julian was in big danger and to prevent it, Emery quickly cast a spell, [Blind].  It was a bright light that was hoped to distract the magus as he swiftly opened up a [Spatial Gate] toward Julian's location.

However, to his surprise, it took him much longer and harder to form the spell. Before he managed to do it, suddenly another attack came charging at him– the dark chain coming from his left and right.

Emery quickly dodged back a few steps and realized the dark elf magus Kasin was smiling as he shows a blinking little sphere. It was an item that continuously gave a slight distortion in space.

"Since your successful escape from me last time, I took a special time making this space distortion sphere from the replicator… only for you," the dark elf said with a smile and then attached a chain and put it on his neck like a pendant.

Another item that would trouble his ability to control space, even just to cast [Blink] felt a few times longer and harder for him.

"You are not running from me this time!"

It seemed like Emery could not escape the man and had no other option than to finish him before he could help Julian

****

Within the center of the facility, Julian was holding out with skillful footwork to move around and block the dark elf magus who moved in between shadows just like his Asian friend.

Clankk!! Clank!!

"How long do you think you can resist, human? Just give up!"

The dark elf said in a mocking and arrogant tone, and with a smirk on his face, he purposely showed his bloody dagger and licked it with his pale tongue.

"Ohh damn another lunatic!"

Rather than being provoked by the dark elf's words that seemed to deliberately make him uncontrollable, he preferred to think of a way to win this duel as effectively as possible.

Julian knew he could not just stay on defense, this situation was forcing him to take immediate action. Not just that Bardock was dying as he was bleeding extensively on the corner, but also the clock for the stargate was ticking down. No more time to waste!

Unfortunately, even with the [Immortal Gate] and the added strength given by the solar suit, the magus elf was still a few levels higher than him in strength and speed. If not for his mastery in shields, he would have been stabbed minutes ago.

Any reckless movement and Julian would end the same fate with Bardock.

"Urrghh is this the limit that I can reach!"

Julian still fighting relentlessly, he needed to find a way to deal with the magus, before the countdown ended.

[22 minutes until the stargate recharged]

The situation in the front yard was much more chaotic. .

Multiple magus were seen flying in the air casting and dodging spells. They were attacking each other relentlessly, clashing their weapons in between. Each attack would create a booming sound that shook the sky and trembled the ground.

Beneath them, the two dozen Nexus veteran soldiers took cover behind shields and shot heavy firearms at the incoming elves.

The Nexus advanced weaponry, surprisingly able to kill the powerful elves warrior and keep them at bay.

"N5 Cannon is ready!"

"Shoot!"

One powerfull blast shoots right at a group of elves and quickly disintegrates several of them

"Yes!! Kill them all!!" The veteran soldiers' cheer echoes in the area.

Unfortunately, their high spirit quickly stopped as one of the elf magus manage to send a powerful fire spell [Greater Fireball]  towards them.

Kabooomm!!!

The flaming explosion boomed all over the area, causing several saints to die instantly at the blast. The explosion quickly took attention to the human magus fighting. The only way such a thing happened was because one of them must have let the magus freed.

Because of this, two magus figures swiftly reconvened behind the soldiers' defense; Stildar the rebel leader, and the female magus Aruka, both were panting as they quickly realized.

"Mason! Where is Mason!"

Both of them turn panicked, as there were chuckles heard from the other side.

"Haha, you are looking for this trash?"

One of the flaming dark elf magus threw away one dying figure badly charred by flames, what was left of the burly magus. It was a shocking scene, as there were not even 10 minutes had passed but one of their strongest has fell.

"Hahahaha, this is not much of a fight at all!" said the elf magus arrogantly.

The other two elven magus joined standing on his sides staring at the human magus and soldiers like a lamb ready to be slaughtered.

The situation became increasingly terrifying. Both magus and the saint soldiers gritted their teeth and grumbled in annoyance with mounting anger.

"Arghh!! We will fight till the end!" shouted Magus Stildar.

Opposite to his words, the rebel leader knew that they wouldn't be able to hold much longer. This was beyond their expectation.

Emery on the other side has been keeping track of his spirit reading and it's true the plan they had has gone south, they can't win this fight with the number that they have.

Suprisingly as if his prayer had been answered, one ship came dashing toward the facility. This one came from North, a Nexus transport ship.

Everyone on the ground, human or elves were surprised to see the sudden arrival.

Even more when they saw dozens of fighters jumping from the air led by five familiar figures, of which three of them were magus-level fighters.
