Mage Adam

Chapter 208: Exposed (2)

They scattered in all directions in an instant, each followed by thousands of lower-level radiation creatures.

"Pure, advanced energy" almost meant everything to the radiation species.

In ancient times, their ancestors killed the origin to seek greater power. This act changed the world and their species, making them strong.

However, they weren't not satisfied.

They decided to invade different planes, starting from scratch to study every new knowledge, unsure of its worth. They were ready to fight for millions of years to change their fate, including Du.

Just now, they found what they had been dreaming of in a weak creature, and that filled them with immense joy.

"Tell all the cities to inform Lord Nasanir. We have found hope!"

"Catch him! At any cost!"

...

Adam couldn't Blink far. His Blink spell, powered by all his magic, only created a distance of a few kilometers. The weak spatial rules made teleportation easier but also made the effects of strong energy interference more apparent.

Looking back, he could still see the city.

Nearly ten enormous, terrifying energies loomed in the sky like monstrous shadows.

Adam floated in the air, taking a deep breath while connected to the Mage Network. The magic power flowing through the energy channel quickly filled the void created by his recent exertion. His nearly shattered Mage Armor also reformed.

But before he could relax, the leaked magic power attracted the attention of another level-four radiation creature. A rainbow energy beam crossed the sky and shot towards Adam.

"It seems I've stirred up a hornet's nest," Adam whispered, vanishing again.

"What's a hornet?" the devil asked, sounding upset. "It's more like stirring up a nest of level-four monsters."

Adam wasn't too worried, though. Level-four radiation creatures were powerful because of their energy quantity and mutated bodies, but they lacked depth. Their energy use was primitive, with only energy beams as their attack method. As long as Adam didn't get trapped in a web of intersecting Level 4 energy beams, he wasn't in much danger.

"I couldn't see how they managed controlled mutations. It's a bit disappointing," Adam said, pulling ether crystals from his pocket. Lighting them up, he randomly shot them in all directions using a Railgun, while speaking.

The devil seemed to calm down, perhaps resigned to the situation, as Adam used several flashes and a teleportation scroll. "Master, Cthulhu is the monsters' territory. If they spread the word, we'll be found sooner or later."

His attempts to distract didn't seem very effective. Though many lower-level radiation creatures were misled, the pursuit of his advanced energy intensified.

Du must have locked onto Adam using some method and communicated this information to the other high-level beings.

Stepping out of the void, Adam found himself above a city in the third ring. Before he could answer the devil, he saw countless ugly, fierce tentacles and energy beams shooting from the city below.

"Silencing Storm."

Waving his magic wand, Adam conjured a thundercloud under his feet. Thick lightning dragons and invisible electromagnetic fields shot out, blocking attacks from numerous level two and three radiation creatures in the city. But this brief pause allowed another rainbow-like energy beam to appear in the sky.

Adam quickly tore another teleportation scroll and vanished. Minutes later, three terrifying monsters appeared where he had been, their huge tentacles easily demolishing the city, killing many lower-level creatures without care.

"He's running!"

"We can't let him get back to the Dragon Plane!"

"Lord Nasanir commands us to stop him at all costs. He's waiting for the other lords to maintain the rift, planning to intervene personally!"

...

"Go to the world's edge, leave Cthulhu, spend the last time in the Dragon Plane, and summon the transdimensional mage and the Mage Legion."

Adam was now essentially against the whole world. Hiding was pointless. Every time he emerged from the void, he encountered groups of radiation creatures -- from cities, mines, and those mobilized to various dimensional rifts. To these creatures, Adam was now more valuable than the Dragon Plane.

Using Blink became increasingly difficult. It was hard to imagine how many beings existed in Cthulhu. Every emergence led to battle, and the closer he got to the world's edge, the more frequent these encounters became.

The escape had consumed his teleportation scrolls crazily. Now, Adam had less than ten left in his possession.

After five days, Adam had almost circled the entire third and fourth rings, finally arriving above the first city he had entered upon his arrival. He was now very close to the world's edge.

"Keep going, Master! The longer we delay, the more dangerous it gets. I suspect the transcendent creatures have already set out," the devil urged, seeing Adam not using Blink anymore, clearly anxious.

"Space is being disrupted by strong energy."

The glow of the Blink runes flickered and quickly faded. Adam's body blurred for a moment but failed to teleport. This was the magic's own protection for the caster. In such conditions, forcing the spell could easily result in being torn apart by the violent, chaotic currents.

The high-level radiation creatures were smart.

Adam's intentions were too obvious, and the five days had given them enough time to set up their countermeasures. It seemed they planned to trap him at the world's edge.

The city exploded with a roar. All radiation creatures revealed their mutated true forms without any disguise. Tentacles shot up into the sky, and dense beams of energy rained down like a storm.

Adam took a deep breath, his magic power surging. He overlaid multiple Thunder Domains ten times, with a range of one kilometer around him completely dominated by lightning.

Elemental missiles rapidly formed and bombarded downwards.

Adam easily suppressed the radiation creatures of an entire city in an instant.

With no time to enjoy his victory, he began to wrap himself in layers of lightning. After a brief charge-up, he launched himself towards the edge of the world, using himself as a projectile in a Railgun.

"Gotcha, you pathetic bug!" someone suddenly shouted.
