Chapter 312 - Final Judgment
Twenty-eight small ships with two magic wielders per location, and there were six special humans flying along with the ships.
Martha was in her dragonic form, and her wings flew swiftly. The power to Space was rippling out as she zoomed out with ease.
As they approached, the Emberdons activated their spells in the Energy Conversion Circles crafted in their scepters which generated the magic armor. Kyros paid more attention to this among the team, and each Emberdons was involved in crafting the conversion circles. This specially crafted circle produced a powerful mage armor that covered their forms. The armor enveloped a layer around their skin and made them look like robots.
"Exoskeleton Mage Armor, Battle Form!" The Emberdons cried out.
"Black Squadron, let's volt in!" Demerus ordered.
Martha secretly rolled her eyes as she recalled the intense and forceful talk of Calaminus to make them say this.
But even as they approached, the minions of Destiny were not intimidated.
"Such fools. Challenging us in magic despite their affliction with [De-Magic] curse!" Faust laughed.
"Our shields won't even tremble at the arrogant attacks of those Champions." Eredus laughed as well.
"You're the fool, skeleton! Magic has always been about doing the impossible! You limited our power, but that made our magic stronger! Behold!" Demerus charged ahead.
The Black Squadron followed Demerus.
Demerus raised his scepter and began to write something in the sky. The power of Entropy remained in the sky, forming the letters.
"How are they doing that? Why does not the elements die out?" Eredus saw it and frowned. The massive arrow and the daring taunt that hovered over the Temple had already made him curious. How were the letters and arrows able to remain in the air?
Demerus continued to draw, and finally, the drawn figure came to life at the last stroke.
A large energy formation circle appeared on the sky itself! Demerus sneered as he watched the circle take form. It was a wild and crazy theory, but Kyros believed it to be possible.
The insane Emberdons researched how to create a form using their own magic. As descendants of Astra, they had access to one power that all Gods had.
Ancient Source summoned it, and the very power of Astra was attracting the elements, just as how Kyros was using Charm to call the elements.
The Energy Formation Circle that appeared horrified the minions of Destiny.
"Im-"
"-possible!"
The Commanders Faust and Eredus, who were magic wielders, erupted in shock. None of their peers and immediate superiors have had the power to summon and create an Energy Formation Circle without engraving it on something solid.
"[Entropy Ray]!" Demerus shouted, and all of the Black squadrons shot a dark laser beam that passed through the energy formation circle.
The beams struck a specific location in the circle, and a massive beam emerged. The amplified beam horrified the Commanders as they could tell it was an attack that had the power that only Commanders could create!
"Fortify the shield! That attack is dangerous!" Faust shouted.
BOOM!
The beam was struck, and the power of decay began to spread out, creating a shocking reaction.
"The magic wall is decaying!"
"It's a high-level Decay Magic! [All Decay]! Quickly! Faust! Fortify the shield!" Eredus shouted.
The arrogance and confidence of the Commanders fell as they saw the attack. Faust quickly used the elemental core that was bestowed on him. The Earth Core that was retrieved from the head of the Okto-Khefali was used, and because Faust's innate element was earth, he could control it masterfully.
The decay had corrupted the magic wall that it began to erode. The beam shot through as the ray pierced through the magic shield.
"[Castle Wall]!" Faust shouted, and a massive wall erupted in front of the beam's path.
BOOM!
"Redirect attack twenty degrees to the left!" Demerus shouted, and with one swift motion, everyone in the black squadron turned as they shot the ray.
The beam veered left, and Faust quickly increased the power of his spell.
The earthen wall veered left to block the ray.
"Disperse!" Demerus ordered, and the five members of the squadron ran forward towards certain rings in the magic formation.
Miraculously, the energy formation circles turned into five smaller formations circles, with each member carrying one at the very front of their ship!
"How can they do that?!" Faust roared in anger. What he saw was an advanced usage of energy formation circle that only Conquerors had!
Demerus and his squadron began to spread out shooting attacks on different parts of the shield.
Whenever the shield would get attacked by the squadron's bombardment, small power of decay remained and ate up the shield.
"The Magic shield is being slowly eaten away by the decay!" Eredus shouted.
"I know! Skeletons!" Faust shouted.
"We are trying, Commander! We are trying our best to recover the shield, but the decay is hindering our magic from covering the gaps! And now, more parts of the magic shield are being eaten away. We have to deactivate the shield and activate it again if we want the shield!"
"We would waste more energy if we do that. Focus on offense! Eredus, take care of the incoming enemies! Faust! Start preparing for an offensive." Lucas shouted.
But then, as they turned back to the sky, another energy formation circle had appeared. Faye stood behind it, and the five members of the Gold Squadron hovered in a formation.
"Damn it!" Eredus cursed and performed his dark magic. Again, his blood erupted out, but this time, he created a third clone.
"Vampires! Water and Ice!" Eredus shouted and moved ahead, harnessing the water energy that he had and was imbuing it with his innate ice power
The flying bats turned into vampires, and they all began to harness ice energy along with Eredus.
The Three Eredus then allowed his energy to explode and created a tide of ice energy that spread out, covering the hole in the magic shield.
Faust stopped harnessing magic to create his Earth wall and prepared a massive attack.
"I'll show you a real meteor!" Faust vowed.
"[Sky Spark]!" Faye shouted as she pointed the scepter towards the formation.
The five ships began to glow as lightning coursed around them, and a web of lightning linked everything.
Suddenly, several massive lightning bolts shot out of the formation and aimed for the gap in the shield.
"[Ice Firmament]!" The three Eredus howled, and along with his vampire army, they created a massive dome of ice that covered the vanguard of the army.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The bolts of lightning began to attack the ice firmament. But the magic shield that covered the entire army began to fall as the skeletons began to prepare to attack.
"Faust! Hurry! These pesky bolts are drilling into my ice!"
The energy that Faust released caused a trembling on the earth below him. It was as if the weight of his power was adding pressure to the ground below. His powers rose and exceeded that of a High Lich.
Massive earth formed, and all the skeletons began to channel their power into the massive rock.
"Behold! My Planet-Quaking Spell! [Final Judgment]!"
Eredus began to cause his ice to explode and shoot out a massive snow attack to the skies.
As the Wings of the Nephilim could sense the attack, the Emberdons turned to Martha.
"Puff. Can you eat that?" Martha asked.
"I've eaten bigger things." Puff sneered.
"Good! Don't get constipated from this!" Martha laughed.
