Chapter 1194: Nexus Battle 4

Outside, things didn't seem to be going so well with the battle between the eight magus. Even with an advantage of two against one, the humans were still struggling to win against the elven side.

This was because each of the elven magus had advantages in every department; higher battle power, higher soul force, and in comparison with the Nexus Magus, comprehensively better techniques.

The only reason both Stildar and Aruka still had not been defeated yet was that the flaming dark elf magus was solely toying with them.

On the other side, the female-looking magus Wildon and his companion Rodrick were in a much worse situation. The former had his spear broken in two while Rodrik was turned blind by the dark element magus. The two still tried their best to fight, but would most likely won't last 10 minutes.

Only magus Garnet who seemed able to keep up fighting one against the weakest elven magus, however still the metal dark elf's defensive capability made the Nexus magus leader helpless since he was unable to land critical wounds on him.

The only winning side for the humans was the ground units. With the new reinforcement, their number had boosted up to a hundred strong, all the most experienced soldiers and rebels fought side by side regardless of their allegiance. Added with advanced firearms, they have successfully killed two-thirds of the elf saint fighters.

"Reload the cannon! Shoot!"

Kabooommm!!!

The ground unit seemed to start taking over the rhythm and winning the battle.

However, on the opposite side, the elven captain took out a horn and decisively blew it up loud, echoing the area.

Tuuuuuutttttttt

These acts confused most human fighters, but those veterans who came from the frontline turned to fear. Without uttering any words, they all simultaneously turned their heads and looked toward the wasteland behind them.

The ground started to rumble and from afar, the sand dust flew high above the yellow desert.

"Orcs!! The orcs are coming!!"

"Reposition the cannon!!"

"Take a defensive position!"

Upon realizing the facility was surrounded by an Orc Lair filled with millions of the abominable creatures, the human fighters couldn't help but panic.

*****

Meanwhile, inside the facility, three figures were running past the hallway with strong determination. They were stalled for a few minutes behind schedule as they had to kill all the elven guards they encountered along the way.

Those three figures were Klea, Chumo, and Chiku, the Chizpur Fang plant creature.

"There! That's the inner chamber!"

After a brief observation of the facility, Klea realized that although the stargate portal was formed above the facility, the inner chamber was where the formation and the machine were placed.

Without giving it a second thought, the three of them immediately headed straight to the inner chamber. However, as soon as the three arrived, they came into an abrupt halt as a shocking sight welcomed the group.

Their Roman friend stood still holding his shield, but his whole body had been soaked with blood as at least a dozen gushing wounds were seen all over his body.

"Julian!"

With quick glance, there were only half a dozen elves seen across the chamber, but Klea certainly knew better that there was at least one magus hiding.

As expected, as soon as they stepped inside the room, Julian shouted,

"Watch out!!"

Klea reactively cast her most powerful ice spell, while the plant creature Chiku used its barrier spell to block.

A loud dull sound resounded through the air in the next moment as both managed to push what seemed to be a shadowy figure back a few steps.

But knowing it was not enough, Chumo pulled them both away, swiftly dashed into the center, and stood together with Julian.

This shocking attack forced them to be on high alert because out of nowhere the upcoming attack would come.

"It's a dark elf magus with the law of shadow.." With such pain, Julian still tried to explain.

"13% shadow law comprehension," Chumo added.

A special law of shadow and high comprehension at that, probably the strongest magus just below the half moon.

When even two magus struggle against one dark elf outside, Julian has been fighting by himself. It was a miracle that he could still stand.

The dark elf magus moves around as a shade before it once again shoots toward the center.

"Get behind me!" Julian shouted as he forced his wounded body to stand and smash his shield to the ground and use his strongest shield battle art.

[Sentinel Defense]

Bammmm!!!

Julian's proud defense skill was broken apart to pieces, but it also successfully bounced the magus away.

Seeing this as perfect timing and a chance for a counterattack, Chumo quickly followed by throwing his flying cursed dagger at the magus. Eight small blades rapidly flew at the shadow in formation. Alas, they only managed to get one hit while the other hit empty air and smoke.

One strike that hit the magus did not seem to mean anything. However, from within a shadow came a voice which made them all startled and alerted.

"You are all not normal acolytes aren't you? Good good!"

The previous shield block made Julian's wound gush out once again and the Roman was clearly in pain.

"Let me heal you!" Klea said.

The Roman refused and whispered, "No.. the gate… they took all the explosives away… I can't… the machine… destroy the machine… Hurry!"

It was quite a broken word, but Klea could perfectly understand what needed to be done.

With only a few minutes on the clock, she quickly took out a [Lightning Staff], an elemental weapon used to improve her lightning spell.

The only issue was that it needed some time to channel, yet it was what she needed to finish the assignment, to destroy the formation. Even so, she still went on with the act, putting her trust on her friends.

She then started by casting her rank A spell [Spirit Explosion] and instantly, her eyes turned bright as her body was brimming with power.

"Protect her!"

In a hurry, the others were immediately coordinated to provide a safe space for Klea to complete her spell. Julian gritted his teeth raising his shield once again, Chiku guarded the opposite side while Chumo split his shadow into clones and ordered them to surround the three.

Bolts of lightning emerged from Klea's body, turning her into an embodiment of a thunder goddess.

[Storm Haze]

However, at the same time the spell was activated, the group heard a whirring sound from the machine around them.

"It's the stargate, isn't it? It's faster than we thought! Are we too late!?"

Klea wouldn't worry about other things at the moment as she just threw all of her enhanced thunderbolts randomly to multiple devices around the area, hoping to stop the stargate from activating

On the other hand, the shadow magus dashed once again, killing Chumo's shadow as he passed through, streaking toward the floating goddess.

"No, you won't hurt her!!"

Unable to reach fast enough, Julian threw his shield and smashed the figure before Chumo sent the small blades to force his retreat.

"Destroy it all, Klea!!"

As if answering his desperate shout, multiple thunderbolts created multiple explosions around the place. However, they could only turn more anxious as it had little effect on the formation and the whirring sound did not seem to stop.

What followed was the formation around the room turned glowing, creating completed runes formation.

Julian's eyes widened in disbelief.

"No! No! We need to do something!"

Despite all of their best effort, a huge portal was formed and a moment after, followed by violent tremors of the facility, another construct successfully passed through.

A nightmare, as it was an even bigger elven warship.
