Chapter 1392 Backstabbing

A mere acolyte charging fiercely alongside a group of humanoid metal puppets might seem nothing to the eyes of the half-blood magus, but the same could not be said to the acolytes who were on the brink of losing hope.

Jai Strider was one of the strongest acolytes in the Magus Academy. His position as one of the top 10 privileged acolytes supported such a statement. Not only that, for some keen observers like Jinkan, she realized Jai had brought his set of powerful artifacts with him.

This was good news, as this meant Jai had found where the dark elves kept their confiscated personal items.

Even though they looked unassuming at glance, each of the eight metal puppets were arguably as strong as the most powerful elite acolyte. There were also the two large puppets …” the defenders …” and the two slender puppets …” the ranger and healer …”, both of whom were comparable in strength to those of top 100 privileged acolytes.

And finally, there was the Guardian Queen, who possessed 400 battle power, demonstrating power as good as a bonafide magus in terms of raw strength.

While his puppets charged ahead, Jai did not stay idle either. His entire body was quickly enveloped by his striking metal suit, which he then let out a passionate loud scream. “Attack!”

Needless to say, the unexpected yet timely arrival of the Metal Puppeteer managed to reinvigorate the other acolytes, especially those who had lost their spirits. Once again, they picked up their bearings and fought for their fate.

Jai’s arrival and impending attack did not appear to cause any concern to Gorro the half moon magus. Instead, the man seemed to be in good spirits as a wide grin could be seen hanging across his pale face.

“Hahaha, yes! This is more like it! Come all of you!”

The crazed half-blood magus clearly looked like he was ready to pounce on Jai’s puppet army, when he suddenly heard his name loudly in the air. Turning his head towards the sound, he saw a familiar figure approaching from the tunnel.

“Brother Gorro! There are more coming!”

The one who arrived was none other than the youngest disciple of Grand Magus Zenonia, the female acolyte-turn-traitor Annara Vermont. Her arrival naturally made several curses come out of Jinkan and the other acolytes. As for Silva and Klea, they were both slightly confused by the red-haired girl’s intentions.

Annara quickly rushed over to the Half Moon magus, while pointing at the tunnel she came from. A commotion could be heard from said tunnel, quickly followed by the arrival of ten more acolytes.

“They are too strong for me, Brother. Help me!”

Hearing those words, Gorro turned to face the arriving group. With a wicked smile on his face, he declared, “Alright. I shall feast on them first!”

It was at this moment that Annara suddenly drew her knife and stabbed the half blood magus from the back.

A deafening scream resounded in the air.

“Arrghhhh! You! Little ungrateful bitch!”

A stab that pierced deep and straight into the heart might be a lethal strike for a magus who had just ascended, but for a Half Moon like Gorro, those attacks didn’t have the same degree of lethality.

Being the cautious person she was, Annara already jumped away from the magus after delivering her sneak attack. Staring at the bleeding wound on the latter’s chest, she mischievously said, “Oh, I am sorry if I hurt your heart, Brother… It’s just that I don’t think I can stand hanging around animals like you anymore.”

The half-blood gave a bloodshot glare at the red-haired girl when he heard those words, saying, “This is far from enough to kill me! And now, I’m going to make you pay…”

Before he could finish the threat, still with a smile on her face Annara said, “I know. That’s why I took my sweet time to thoroughly dip my dagger in your favorite poison. The one you kindly gave me for the tournament, remember?”

Gorro’s face changed drastically when he heard that.

“You littl…”!”

The man was forced to stop his words as he fell to his knees, his hands clutching his bleeding chest. Bulging black veins began to appear all over his body, contrasting against his pale skin. He seemed to be in excruciating pain as he went hysterical and mad, charging towards Annara in a feral manner.

Seeing that, Annara quickly retreated even further from the magus while screaming, “Jai! Your turn!”

At her words, Jai immediately dispatched his two defenders towards the enraged Gorro. The two of them each quickly grabbed the magus’ arms and locked onto the man. Thanks to the poison causing havoc throughout his body, the Half Moon magus found his strength diminished significantly.

Immediately after, Jai jumped in with his metal suit and swung his huge blade at the magus’ shoulder with all his might. The attack only managed to inflict a wound several inches deep, but then a loud whirring sound rang in the air as the sword’s motorized chain blades began to scrape its way through the latter’s durable body.

“AARGHH!!!”

Gorro’s screams of pain were drowned out by the sound of engines as blood splattered everywhere.

Seeing the situation, the other half-blood magus quickly tried to provide help. However, they were swiftly intercepted by Silva, Jinkan and Jai’s Guardian Queen, who were prepared to prevent them from doing so.

The magus’ screams continued and, a few seconds later, it abruptly stopped as Jai managed to cut the magus’ body in half, finally killing the Half Moon magus.

At the same time, the ten remaining crazed acolytes were finally taken care of by the cooperation between Jai’s metal puppets and the ten newly-arrived acolytes that Annara had brought over. They overwhelmed the crazed acolytes, killing and capturing them one by one along with Lodos the Maniac.

Realizing the situation was not in their favor, the half-blood three magus tacitly came to an agreement and tried to retreat. Unfortunately for them, one figure had foreseen this and cast a spell that created a wall of ice covering the tunnel they wanted to go through.

“Where are you guys going?! You’re not leaving! Not before paying for killing my friends!”

Saying those words, Klea quickly followed her spell by casting [Ice Shards] in quick succession, sending a rain of shards towards the half-blood magus. She deliberately aimed the attack to impede the magus’ mobility; this opportunity was quickly grabbed by Silva who spewed poisonous smoke at them.

Unable to move freely and weakened, the three magus could only accept their fate when the other acolytes stepped in and sent down a storm of attacks, unleashing their rage and fury on them.

All three half blood magus met their end.

Amidst the chaos, Annara quickly dashed towards Jinkan and threw her a storage ring. The latter instinctively checked it and saw the distinct marking of her Nephilim family. It was her storage ring that was confiscated by the elves.

“We need to get out now! You have a way, right!?”

What Annara meant by her words was the artifact Jinkan used during the Andora mission.

Understanding what the red-haired girl meant, Jinkan channeled her senses into the ring and took out a shining miniature ship. It quickly enlarged after being taken out, and Jinkan immediately ordered everyone to enter.

At this point, there were only two dozen acolytes left. In addition to the half a dozen crazed acolytes that had been neutralized, the numbers were just enough to fill the space on Annara’s special ship.

After confirming that no one was left behind, the glowing ship quickly shot through the compound tunnel at breakneck speed. Everyone couldn’t help but cheer in glee when the ship shot the gate open and made out into the open.

However, their smiles soon disappeared when they saw the huge spaceship covering the sky.
