Supreme Magus novel Chapter 811

Chapter 811 Laruel“s Secret Part 1

They were both undead Thorns, their bodies so vaguely shaped that they looked like green mannequins. Lith didn’t recognize their energy signature, hence he had no idea of what kind of undead they were nor what kind of abilities they possessed.

He Blinked behind their backs, cutting them in half with a single slash before setting them ablaze with the black flames of his tier five spell, Setting Sun. The undead cussed out loud, revealing to be a male and a female.

They unleashed respectively a Chasing Lightning and a powerful pulse of darkness magic.

The first spell forced Lith on the defensive, while the other dispelled enough of the black flames that by sacrificing their lower halves the undead managed to escape by burrowing through the ground.

There was no way of dodging Chasing Lightning, Lith could only conjure a stone wall and block the spell. It took him just a second, yet it was more than enough to make it impossible for him to chase the two undead.

Meanwhile, Illum was aware of the gravity of his situation, but no matter what he did, he couldn’t manage to escape from the encirclement. Kalla had generated several shadow-copies of herself that had Illum completely surrounded.

To make matters worse, they were all casting darkness spells non-stop, making it impossible to distinguish the copies from the original. Attacking the wrong Wight would have meant triggering the attack of another mass of darkness magic.

Kalla first attack was wearing down his transformation, his flesh was slowly turning back into bark as his brown fur withered and fell.

Moreover, Phloria kept conjuring stone constructs that restricted both his field of vision and movements, allowing the Wight’s spells to hit him with increasing frequency despite their slowness.

Friya, instead, kept appearing in his blind spot, hitting him with pulses of darkness just to disappear the moment he turned around. _{ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com}

’Dammit! This was supposed to be a simple job. The plan was to blend in with the crowd and have the Awakened attacked by an angry mob, so that in the ensuing chaos we could easily kill them.

’Master Gremlik sent me because not even Awakened are able to recognize a thrall from a normal living being, yet that bastard blew my cover in an instant. Time to get out of here.’ Illum thought, gambling everything on the strength his sire had bestowed upon him.

Even though as a plant folk Illum was capable of using dimensional magic, the Grendel form prevented him from casting spells. The fight had begun just a few seconds before, yet he had already witnessed how powerless his Treantling form was.

His only chance to escape was to break through the enemy defenses, but he couldn’t just run away. His reinforcements had just been defeated, so there wasn’t much time left before Lith returned, forcing Illum to fight alone versus four.

’I just need to injure one of them, it doesn’t matter who. That way, I’ll get rid of two enemies at once, since the healer will not be able to chase me as well. I’m sure that I can beat even these monsters if we fight one on one.’ Illum thought.

Kalla was hidden among her shadows, Friya always retreated behind the wall of Wights, so his choice fell on Phloria. The annoying woman had foiled all of his previous strategies by moving one of her stone shields in his path at the worst possible moment.

The thrall charged at her while dodging Kalla’s darkness bullets too fast for even Friya’s dimensional magic to lock on him. Phloria didn’t flinch, simply raising the only tower shield she had kept for herself while preparing for her riposte.
