Supreme Magus novel Chapter 890

Chapter 890 Sorcerer’s Apprentice Part 2

Every single book that had an even remotely interesting title would float toward the tower’s door or windows along with all the tomes that Dawn had left on the lab counters.

Lith didn’t even bother checking them and took his enemy’s opinion at face value.

’Can your tower form help us in the case enemies get here before we’re done?’ He asked.

’It can amplify your magic, but I would be a sitting duck. The tower has yet to regain real defensive abilities like barriers. All I can do with the earth blocking array preventing me from digging underground is becoming invisible.

’However, even if Dawn wasn’t an expert of light magic, by blocking her constructs from reforming the tower walls give away my position.’ Solus replied.

’I’ll take it as a no.’ Lith thought while weaving his most destructive spells.

"According to what you’ve told me, Dawn and her spawns should be vulnerable to darkness magic. Focus on that and hard-light constructs!" He ordered Nalrond.

"This is ridiculous. If you wanted to kill me, there are countless less idiotic ways to do it. Why are you throwing away your life for some books?" The Rezar had considered flying away, but the tunnel was narrow.

If Lith decided to shoot him in the back, Nalrond would have no way to avoid it. Even if he survived the blast by sheer luck, the wounds wouldn’t let him go far. Rather than being at the mercy of the winner, Nalrond preferred to take his chances and fight.

’I can always run away the moment an opportunity arises. I must survive until Lith and Dawn are too busy tearing each other’s throat to mind me.’ He thought.

Luckily for Lith, the swarm of Sentries plus the enhanced intellect Solus gained while in her tower form greatly reduced the time needed for a full sweep of the room. She managed to get back at his finger when the first fanged shooting star reached the underground lab.

’Why are you in your ring form?’ Lith was worried that the mental strain he had put her through might affect her combat abilities. He had planned several moves ahead, but they all required her assistance.

Against an opponent as powerful as Dawn, Lith had to go all-out right of the bat. Without Solus boosting Ruin’s fusion magic and supporting him with her spells, things would go downhill quickly.

’Because there’s something I have to try. It shouldn’t take me long.’ She replied as another shooting star joined the fray and the first vampire charged at Lith with the momentum of a freight train.

’"Long" is a relative concept when each second could be the last!’ Lith was already infused with all the elements and attempted to dodge the living bullet, but the vampire shapeshifted into her Chiropterann form.

It was a giant hybrid between a human and a bat.

The creature was 2.5 meters (8’2") meters tall, with membranous wings connecting her hands to her hips. Ten centimeters long razor-sharp talons replaced her nails and a thick dark brown fur as hard as steel covered the rest of her body.

Her open mouth emitted a beastly screech, revealing fangs as long as short swords. A single flap of her wings allowed the vampire to perform an abrupt turn in mid-air. Between her high-speed movements and her long arm, she managed to catch Lith’s leg.
