Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1160

Chapter 1160 Cleansing the Land Part 2

"Packs of magical beasts are incapable of handling a horde and there aren’t enough Emperor Beasts to keep the situation in check.

"That’s why we are systematically scouting the region and exterminating any monster we find. Missing even one means having an army of those bastards grow right under our noses." The Nue snarled.

"I’ve dealt with plenty of monsters in Garlen and they never amounted to much. How can you have so many problems with them despite the Council’s help?" Lith asked.

"Son, Awakened are a minority whereas all monsters have powers and they spawn faster than you can sneeze. What you faced in the past were nothing but small tribes constantly kept on the run. Here we are talking about hundreds, if not thousands of them.

"With leaders, strategies, and when they found them, even weapons. Don’t forget that not all monsters are brainless creatures. Balors and Orcs are the main threat because they can tame other Fallen like Goblins or Trolls.

"To make matters worse, Abominations are on their side. They protect the monsters from us Emperor Beasts and in exchange their leaders feed them with the dregs of their society." Xoth said.

"Is there any cleansing operation I can take part in?" Lith asked.

"Son, the only reason why Reghia isn’t swarming with Emperor Beasts is that we’re conducting cleansing operations non-stop just to keep this region safe. You’re spoilt for choice."

Xoth pressed a small crystal placed in the middle of the floor that generated a hologram of the area surrounding Reghia. Several red blinking dots of different sizes covered the blue light of the hologram, each marked with a threat level and a rough estimate of the enemy’s numbers.

"These are just today’s threats that have yet to be dealt with. Teams have been dispatched on site already to recon before planning their attack. Take your pick."

"I’ll take this one." Lith pointed at an invading army strong of a thousand units, with even cavalry and an Abomination. His choice made Solus shiver and Xoth scoff.

"Do you realize that they are trained, well equipped, and that a single Chaos spell can kill even one of us?" The Nue asked.

"Yes, that’s why I wasn’t planning on going alone so much as on joining the team taking care of the issue." Lith replied.

"Thank the gods. For a moment I feared the Council had sent us another brainless idiot." Xoth exchanged communication runes with Lith and then informed the leader of the assault team of his coming.

The crystals on the office’s floor lit up in sequence, forming a Warping array leading Lith to his destination.

"Wait, what? Are we going to attack already?" Lith stuttered in surprise.

"No time like the present. Olua will debrief you in person. She was just missing one person for the assault. That old fart will be glad to skip all the finesse guerrilla warfare requires and fight the enemy head on." The Nue said.

"She will also kick Xoth’s ass for calling her an old fart and yours as well, rookie, if you keep me waiting." A huge talon came through the dimensional tunnel along with the voice, dragging Lith to the other side, where his companions were waiting for him.

Olua was a Roc, a lesser Phoenix over 20 meters (66’) tall that resembled a giant eagle covered in golden feathers streaked black all over. With each one of her breaths, world energy amassed inside her body, causing electrical sparks between her feathers.
