Earth's Greatest Magus-Novel

A deafening sound that shook the air resounded loudly, and a strong tremor could be felt in the hill that spanned dozens of miles.

However, despite the obvious commotion going on around them, the dark elf magus were surprised to find that they were unable to pinpoint the source of it. What's more, they kept finding themselves walking in circles, ending up at places they had passed before.

Each of them had tried many things, from burning down the trees to flying up into the skies, but no matter what they did, the surroundings still remained the same.

Strong gusts of wind, barriers of thick trees, or even rock blockades; whenever they tried to escape the forest, there would always be something that appeared to stop them from getting out of the forest.

"This can't be a mental attack! What kind of formation is this?!"

While the dark elf magus were completely bewildered by the formation they had never seen before, Emery continued to move stealthily, avoiding the formation's traps while observing them from a distance.

Previously, the backup plan was to use the traps in the formation to restrain the dark elves before sprinting at full speed towards the teleportation gate to escape.

However, seeing how effective the Hexagram formation was with the support of the Tier 6 flag artifacts, the plan changed. He was ready to take all of his anger out on them.

Emery approached one of the Crescent Magus who was further apart than the others. He made sure to make his approach as silent as possible, and when he felt he was close enough, casting [Void Mist] he sent one of the clones to attack the man.

As expected, an immediate response was obtained from the other party.

"You must be crazy to even think of attacking me!"

Unfortunately for the Magus, the spirit reading interference imposed by the Hexagram formation proved too severe as he didn't realize he was tricked until he cut the clone in two with his saber and watched it dissipate into the void.

As soon as the decoy was destroyed, three other clones appeared from three sides at the same time, ready with powerful sword strikes.

Nevertheless, the dark elf magus was experienced, a veteran. He didn't panic, even though he knew he was falling into a trap. He shouts loudly to call on his comrades while swinging his blazing saber wide.

In one rotating motion, he managed to destroy all three Emery. But of course, the real Emery wasn't among them.

"Is that all you got!! Hahaha"

In fact, without him knowing, Emery was already right behind the magus. While the latter's attention was diverted, Emery arrived with his [Blink] and swiftly thrust his weapon forward. A glint appeared on a short blade, gleaming dangerously.

[Hidden Stab]

It was a dagger battle art technique that Emery had not used in a long time. This time, through the Tier 6 dagger he had recently obtained, [Shadow Bane].

Spllaatttt!!!

Coupled with Emery's astonishing battle power, the dagger was able to penetrate the magus' defense with ease, dealing a vital blow to the latter that sent him falling to his knees.

The dark elf magus of course immediately tried to muster up the energy to fight back. But before he could do so, he gasped in pain as another sharp object pierced through his body, piercing from behind.

Looking down, the dark elf magus could clearly see the three blades protruding from his chest with even gaps between them. They not only made more blood spurt out of his body, but even worse, they also drained his strength.

[Spirit Devour]

"AAARRGHHH!!"

The dark elf magus let out a ghastly screech as he felt an excruciatingly painful sensation sweep across his body. He found himself gradually weakening through the wound in his chest. Much to his horror, he could feel his grip on reality slowly slipping.

"Kane!! Is that you! Kane!!"

Unfortunately, the dark elf magus's agonizing scream was loud enough for one of his friends to hear it and find him. However, by the time he made his way through the forest, he found nothing but pools of blood in the grass nearby.

"Blood! Elf blood! That damned acolyte got to Kane!!"

The captured elf could only blame his bad luck, as the moment Emery sensed the other approaching, he immediately [Blink] and brought his weakened prey to the depths of the woods.

There, he continued the devour until completion before finishing the job by slitting the now emaciated elf's throat.

Spllllaaatttt!!

As the elf's energy entered and flowed through his body, Emery also felt a soothing sensation of finally killing his prey. However, almost immediately the urge arose again. He desires more; more elves must die.

Moments after, he was startled to feel a certain feeling of acknowledgment coming from the dagger in his hand.

The dagger that was looted from the dark elf has been painful to hold. but apparently, it had an appetite for the elves' blood.

"You are enjoying this also, aren't you?"

His communication with the dagger was disrupted due to the appearance of the dark elf's soul from his lifeless body. It immediately tried to run away, but alas, Emery had the perfect method to catch him.The source of this content is novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Immediately, the space around the spirit soul was isolated from the rest as Emery's [Aegis of Void] took effect. The spirit soul certainly tried to struggle its way out, but in the end it could only accept its fate of being captured, and Emery quickly stored it in his spatial space.

With this, the matter was basically settled, one prey was done, and Emery thirsted for more blood.

Unfortunately for him, the dark elf magus were wise enough to start clustering together.

Currently, the two of them were together, with one not far behind, advancing through the forest while watching each other's backs. Seeing this, Emery withdrew because fighting three magus at the same time was still too much for him.

This left him with only one target, who was wandering the forest alone by himself.

Wasting no more time, Emery took action before this dark elf joined the others, and he chose to use the same tactic as before.

A surprise attack of multiple clones in the middle of the night with a disrupted spirit reading was certainly a deadly one to any target, and like the previous elf, this one also swung his axe weapon in a circular motion and managed to instantly kill all the clones.

However, the moment Emery thrust his Tier 6 dagger, a hard metallic sound resounded with a strong counterforce.

CLAANKKK!!

Apparently, this dark elf magus had much better defense than the previous, most likely due to high proficiency in the Law of Metal. As proof, the Tier 6 dagger could only penetrate half as deep into the man's back.

It still somehow wounded the elf, but not critically enough to drop him. Emery was still able to hold the elf down with his strength, ready to devour the elf, but he quickly realized that the other dark elf magus were heading towards this location at the fastest possible speed.

While still grunting in pain, the Magus chuckled, "We got you now insect!"

It was at that moment that he knew he was falling into a trap.

With the elf still strong enough to resist him, it was near impossible to blink him away like the last one.

Emery's first thought was to leave the elf and go into hiding once more, but his savage urge compelled him to stay and swiftly inflict a few more stabs on the dark elf instead.

Blood splashed into the air, strewn across the lush grass along with an elf screaming in pain.

By the time the other three dark elf magus had arrived, they were surprised to see their mate was already down and their target was covered in blood.

With a glint of smile, Emery said "Three more"
