Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3670

Lith had killed over a hundred of Orpal's Thralls, but there were almost a thousand more left.

The 30 meters (100') tall Treants tackled the Engine while hammering at it with their battle gauntlets. The Titanias grabbed its arms, twisting them so that another shot would cause no harm.

Dryads, Thorns, and the rest of the plant folk trapped the Engine's legs with their bodies and conjured their best spells from point-blank range. At that point, Thunder Soul corrupted the world energy that fueled the tower.

The corrupted air element carried the destructive power of the Upyrs' spells past the Engine and straight into Lith's body.

'Now!' Lith coughed a mouthful of blood, using the tower's Immortal Body array to rebuild his ruptured organs.

The Dread Knight acted as fast as lightning and as loud as thunder.

The communication array displayed the weak points in the enemy formation and the path to reach them that would inflict the most damage on their visors.

The Dread Knights had galloped the entire time behind the cover of the Engine, and had built so much momentum that their change made the Upyrs think the Requiem Blaster had shot again.

Small tornadoes originated from the speartips of the Dread Knights, and their steeds moved in a blur that not even Awakened eyes could follow. The cavalry hit like a supersonic tidal wave that uprooted the plant folk at the Engine's feet and tore the enemy formation apart, killing hundreds.

Lith exploited the moment of respite to split his arms and recall Ragnarök. The angry blade cut the Treants-Upyrs like firewood, and a barrage of ice spells from the Firing Range ensured their wounds would remain frozen open.

The Titanias were bigger than normal, but still ants to the size of the Engine. Lith stomped them as such and released enough spells from his feet to make sure the Titanias would stay down forever.

"What kind of cursed object is that?" Uragar, the Book of Knowledge, asked. "I don't recognize it, and I'm supposed to know everything!"

He unleashed a barrage of tier five Spirit Spells that Solus neutralized by activating one of the Bastions stored in the Cannon Vault.

"How?" Uragar screamed in outrage. "How can it do what even I can't?"

As its name implied, Uragar's real form was that of a book, and it contained the best spells currently known to four of the five races. Unlike most of those who created living legacies, Uragar's maker firmly believed that magic would never stop progressing.

That stronger, better, and more efficient spells would always be invented as new branches of magic were discovered. It was the reason he had paid the immense price that Forbidden Magic required to create the best possible version of a simple artifact as a spell-holding ring.

Yet the ability of the ancient Forgemaster, combined with Forbidden Magic, had created a masterpiece that only the Spell Hoarding Cube in the Royal Treasury surpassed. The pages of Uragar were empty until a spell was written upon them.

Such spells were not permanent and could be erased when a new, better one was learned. Such spells could be cast instantly and belong to all tiers and all branches of magic. Even Spirit Spells could be cast freely.

"Stop whining and kill him, Uragar!" Orpal roared. "We can always extract Leech's secrets when we study his corpse." _{freēwebnovel.com}
