Supreme Magus novel Chapter 1394

Chapter 1394 - One Mind, Five Bodies (Part 2)

The first group used the combined effect of Griffon Fetters and Dragon Maw to drag Sunset further away while raining spells upon it.

Griffon Fetters used light to shapeshift quickly, earth for sturdiness, water for flexibility, fire to generate heat, air to make the chains diamond-sharp, and darkness to deal damage over time.

The longer rider and steed got restrained by the spell, the more damage piled up. On top of that, the cage created by Dragon Maw kept the offensive spells from leaving the area, making them bounce on the walls and hit their target without wasting one iota of mana.

"Impudent brats!" Dusk said with a roar as his flaming red aura spread outward and his body bulged, pushing the chains’ resistance to its utmost limit.

All undead could convert the life force stored in their blood cores into mass, but only Liches were capable of converting their mana into life essence, making their potential mass limited only by their magical prowess.

It gave Dusk the strength to move despite the restraints and to shatter all of them with a single swing of Firebrand. He wielded the ax in a two-handed grip to exploit every bit of the power he had just consumed.

’What the f.u.c.k?’ The squad in charge of Dusk thought in unison. ’We knew that Firebrand is powerful but that’s too much. How did he escape to three combined tier five Spirit spells?’

The flaming red aura had also extinguished the emerald flames of Phoenix Smash, neutralizing the advantage that the surprise attack had given to the Corpse. On top of that, it opened a crack in the second Sealed Space, allowing the Horseman to communicate with his steed.

"Sunset, to me!" Dusk said while charging at the Marchioness.

The brief exchange and how the thoughts moved through the mind link mostly from her to the others identified Mirim as the leader. Taking her out would make the rest of the battle much easier.

He was as fast and strong as a Dragon, too much for Mirim to react in time. Dusk had moved in a straight line, the quickest path to reach his target. Yet it was also the easiest to predict.

Lepto struck at Firebrand’s tip with his mace while Jhoa pulled the ax away thanks to the hooks at the end of her curved blades. The weapons of the members of the Corpse had barbs that allowed them to take hold of enemy weapons and move them in every direction.

Dusk was fast, but not faster than thought, giving Mirim the time to issue orders through the mind link. Her soldiers deviated Firebrand from its intended path and she struck the ax with a downward slash of her polearm.

The hit dealt no damage to the Davross but it added so much momentum that the Horseman found himself spinning uncontrollably in mid-air like a top.

The Corpse used that moment of confusion to get back to a safe distance and resume their attack. At the same time, Siska and Shad unleashed one blast of Phoenix Smash after the other upon Sunset.

Thanks to Dragon Maw, the shockwaves bounced on the walls so that Sunset always took the full brunt of each explosion, and thanks to Dusk’s order, the movements of the steed became even more predictable.

The exit point was too close for her polearm to be effective and Dusk moved too fast for anyone to react properly. Dusk swung his ax in a downward slash, cutting off Mirim’s right arm and her leg at the knee. _{freēwēbηovel.c૦m}

’She’s dead.’ Dusk thought while looking at her dwindling life force. ’I know the Corpse well and their members don’t have any breathing technique.’
