Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3093

Chapter 3093 Time Out (Part 1)

The Adamant Golem was a staggering figure, over three meters (10') tall with violet crystals embossed at every joint to instantly transmit the orders of the power core and fuel spells more powerful than any mortal mage could cast.

It couldn't repair itself as fast as a Rock Golem but damaging Adamant was an impressive feat and the construct was entirely made out of metal, not just coated with it.

On top of that, the Adamant Golem was just one of the many roaming the space between the tunnel and the fortress.

"You know what they say. The bigger they are…" Lith shapeshifted into his Tiamat form as Double Edge appeared in his hand in a burst of emerald flames. "The harder they hit!"

He kicked the Adamant Golem like it was a toy, sending it to crash against an incoming wave of enemies.

'My blades are useless here!' Strider cursed his bad luck and strategized with Solus and Ryka. 'I'll support you and deal with the Dread Knights but someone needs to think of a way out of here.'

'Way ahead of you!' Solus threw the Fury, activating its enchantment, Furies' Flight.

As the Davross hammer generated eight identical copies of itself and sent everything on its path flying, the Zouwu had the time to look in the direction in which Solus pointed.

Ragnarök moved in delicate, sharp cuts that conjured an intricate sequence of runes.

'A Blade Spell! Gods above, I knew that Lith can use Blade Magic but I never thought I'd see him cast it in person.' Strider thought and he wasn't the only one.

"Charge like your undeath depends on it, because it does!" One of the Dread Knights yelled at the top of his lungs. "If Verhen completes that spell, we're dead, and this time for good."

On his cue, side doors opened in the castle walls, letting out human soldiers, Emperor Beasts, and Dread Knights while Rock Golems emerged from the stone floor under which they had been lying in ambush.

Sure, the world energy in the underground cave was scarce, but Lith's equipment was fully charged and he had become stronger after the end of the war. More than anything, what scared the people of the fortress was the threat of the seemingly endless tricks he was able to pull out of thin air whenever he needed.

The air condensed in front of the speartips of the Dread Knights in a spiral pattern, both creating a slipstream effect in front of their horses and accumulating more destructive power as they moved.

Their main target was Lith. There was no one on Garlen who had not seen the videos of the Supreme Magus of the Kingdom conquering cities by himself during the War of the Griffons.

Dread Knights were the heavy cavalry of the undead and despite their name and each one of them was bound to a steed, they had no relationship with Baba Yaga's Horsemen.

In life, they had been valiant knights who had been forced to sully their honor to uphold their oaths of loyalty.

Murder, kidnapping, slaughtering of innocents, no matter what their masters had ordered them back when they were alive, all Dread Knights had loyally followed orders even though it went against everything they believed in.
