Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 1159 Flying Objects

With his spirit reading, Emery could sense a living being a hundred miles away. Unfortunately, machines were always able to close in on him until he could only sense with his enhanced sights and hearings.

"What are they!?"

The magus Conleth's face suddenly turned pale. At that instant, he said, "They are watching! No! I am dead now! Let me go!"

Seeing the magus' terrified face, Emery quickly shouted, "Watch out, be prepared!"

Eights... twelve... eighteen... and more came into his sights. Emery watched closely as the two meters long flying object that looked like an oversized dagger dived from the sky and when it reached a few miles away, it released a certain tube that flew even faster than the ship.

Emery's eyes widened in disbelief, and so did the others. Especially when they saw each of the ships sent two of those tubes, making at least forty tubes being shot right at them.

"Don't let it reach us!" Emery shouted

The sudden attack forced Emery to quickly cast multiple [Seed Bombs] and threw them into the air, and Klea followed with her [Thunderbolt] spells.

Dark energy balls and lightning filled out the sky and when it hit the tubes, it created multiple powerful explosions that created light bright enough to be seen for hundreds of miles.

Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!!

Even though dozens of tubes had been successfully destroyed, there were three of those tubes that came through the explosion closing in towards them. But Chumo was ready for such situation.

"I'll take these ones," he said as he prepared with his bow and arrows to aim toward the sky.

Three arrows on one bow released and shot right at the three tubes, and once again, multiple explosions occurred.

Kaboom! Kaboom! Kaboom!!

This time it was much closer, enough to send some force into the ground blowing the rocks and sand away hundreds of meters.

After they managed to destroy a wave of attacks, unfortunately now the ships already doubled than before. Emery's eyes were fixed on the twenty ships that had now turned forty.

He witnessed how those ships were divided into two, making a curved turn in the sky and returning to shoot more of those explosive tubes.

p "The Nexus faction is determined to kill us!"

Emery shouted in annoyance seeing the increasing number of attacks charging towards them. Once again, the three threw more spells and arrows to stop the incoming explosives tubes just like before, but this time Emery turned anxious.

These tubes were powerful projectile weapons indeed, but it was at most comparable to tier 4 spells, something that would not be enough to kill them, much less a magus, then why was the magus so terrified?

Emery had a hunch that something was off here.

He then quickly looked toward the panic magus and sure enough, the magus did not look at those ships. Instead, his terrified eyes were looking toward the empty sky. It was then Emery realized that the magus was looking toward the hovering object in the far distance outside the planet, the Nexus station.

"Let me go!!" shouted the magus screaming for his life.

With such a bad premonition, without much consideration, Emery quickly casted [Spatial Gate] creating a door to move anywhere a dozen miles away. That's all he could think of at the time being– to remove himself and his friends as far as possible.

"Get in!" Emery shouted toward his two friends and at the same time he also told Twik to release the entangling root.

"Kuang!! Ku!"

It was at this moment that Emery suddenly felt powerful energy, it was like a sudden blink of a star, a bright light shot directly from the Nexus station, one powerful enough to make his heart stop.

In a split second, knowing Klea and Chumo had already entered the gate, Emery quickly [Blink] and grabbed Twik into his arm, and swiftly casted [Aegis of Void] to shield them two.

Swisshhh....

KABOOMMMM!!!!!

It was like a massive hammer fell from god, the energy blast destroyed everything within a mile radius. Even the barrier that Emery had just formed was shattered, and as a result, Emery was blasted a mile away.

Urggghhh!!

His body was hurting and his head was spinning. How could it not be, it was a blast as powerful as tier 7 spells, near the power of a grand magus.

Fortunately, his barrier was enough to block most of its power, because otherwise, he could be killed in an instant.

The blast followed with a rumbling of the earth and a sandstorm covering miles of teb wasteland, but fortunately he was alright.

"Kuang, ku ku!"

"I am glad you are alright too Twik!"

Emery quickly made sure that his little buddy was fine. Although he didn't know how Klea and Chumo were doing since they're separated, he could only hope that they were okay as well.

As Emery stood up, he saw a crater as big as a hundred meters and holes that reached deep into the orc's Lair below.

Chiwikk!! Chiwikkk!!

The roar of hundreds of orcs screamed can be heard.

Not far from it, Emery also saw what was left of the Jorah, the wind magus, a corpse with his spirit soul none to be seen.

Emery looked at the sky and saw the flying objects flew toward him once again and quickly realized that it was not the right moment to stand idle. He needed to save himself and Twik first as priority.

Not waiting for a second shot, Emery quickly created a second spatial gate and took Twik away to where Klea and Chumo were.

As soon as he arrived, Klea, who had been waiting for him anxiously, quickly hugged him.

"Emery! You're safe!!" The feeling of the girl was very relieved to see Emery and Twik had returned without any injuries on their body.

Now that they all had regrouped in a safer place, Klea then quickly approached the panic magus. Her expression became serious with sharp eyes that were ready to interrogate the magus. "You!! Tell us what the hell is that!!"

Still weakened by Chumo's seal, the helpless magus said, "It's.. the Nexus Star Blaster... it's our most powerful weapon..!"

Emery looked toward the sky. He was wary that a second attack would suddenly come once again.

Realizing this the magus anxiously says, "It needs ten minutes to recharge and the attack drones to allocate the target, we need to get out of its radar now!!

Moments after, Emery saw the said attack drones fly in their direction once again. When they arrived, however, Emery and the others had already gone.
