Supreme Magus novel Chapter 3694

Chapter 3694: Hit and Run (Part 1)

The Awakened man and the woman were both bright violet cores and wore excellent equipment, but none of that was enough against the Golems. Unlike Lith’s Demons, they were always at full power, waiting in the pocket dimension to be summoned.

On top of that, whenever the Spark was active, Trouble and Raptor were upgraded by the tower. Raptor’s body belonged to an Awakened Vagrash and had long since been refined from the bright blue to the bright violet level.

As for Trouble, the tower’s Spark chamber had granted him in death the body refining that his fallen state had denied him in life. Balors were already powerful creatures in their non-Awakened state, and Trouble had reached the equivalent of the deep blue.

Also, the two corpses were coated in Adamant that had also filled the damage left by Lith’s killing blows. The Spark had strengthened the Adamant as well, turning it into a Davross-Adamant alloy.

The Davross’ mass had recently surpassed the Adamant and now comprised over half of the metal bodies, making short work of the mages’ armors. Last, but not least, Lith had turned Raptor’s jagged tail into a proper sword and enchanted it with a power core of its own.

The two Golems took the human Awakened by surprise and managed to wound them deeply before their comrades came to the rescue.

"I don’t know what you are, but I can discover it after I kill Verhen and imprint you!" A Dryad yelled at the constructs.

Four Awakened abandoned the chase and went to the humans’ rescue, unleashing one powerful tier five Spirit Spell each. They had prepared those spells to deal with Lith, but they couldn’t afford to lose the only array specialists in the group.

The Awakened needed sheer focus to control the Spirit Spells with surgical precision and avoid killing their allies. Their effort and worry became useless when the Golems smirked and disappeared in a burst of emerald flames.

’Where did they go?’ The Awakened man scoured his surroundings for the exit point of what he believed to be a Spirit Blink.

’Recall your spells to your side and keep them ready to use.’ The Awakened woman needed her breathing technique to heal the deep gash in her chest. ’This must be a trap.’

She was right, but the trap was not for them.

Lith was still pushing his wings to their limits, but his enemies caught up quickly by forcing him to dodge multiple barrages of spells. The aerial maneuvers saved Lith’s life but slowed him down compared to his pursuers, who flew in a straight line.

"Got you!" The Titania yelled in triumph as her vines whipped at Lith’s legs.

’Back at you!’ Lith opened the pocket dimension again, and Trouble hit the Titania with a dropkick and a Final Eclipse from point-blank.

At the same time, Raptor in its Vagrash form pounced on the second closest Awakened, the male Emperor Beast, and bit his throat as they both plummeted to the ground like a meteor of flesh and metal.

The Titania and the Emperor Beast both roared their challenge, releasing powerful tier five Spirit Spells that destroyed everything around them for dozens of meters.

Too bad only their allies suffered the conflagrations.

’Be careful, you idiots!’ Sogron, a human blademaster said. ’Have you forgotten Verhen has an omni pocket? He’s using it to recall his Golems after every attack in the most obnoxious hit-and-run tactic I’ve ever seen.’

’I’ve slowed them down, but for how long?’ Lith found no solace in his success. ’Those bastards are all still alive.’

’Are you sure you don’t want me to call Solus?’ Ripha had emerged from her Void Sigil and held Lith’s communication amulet.

’And do what?’ Lith replied. ’I have no idea where I am and can’t stop long enough to let the amulet pinpoint my position. Even if I did, how can she reach us if she has never been here before?’

’Then what do you need me for?’ Ripha had only one eye so as not to burden Lith’s mana.

’Oh, shit! Verhen is a Light Master!’ The air, earth, and fire pillars crashed against Azaar’s Spirit Barrier, cracking it.
