Earth's Greatest Magus

Chapter 922 - Comprehension



Chapter 922 - Comprehension

There were 903 acolytes sent to Andora and according to the data he just received from the device, three of them had lost their lives.

The notification reminded Emery that the test was not a game. He realized that even a powerful acolyte who was like gods in the eyes of the people on this planet could die in the fight against the hordes of abyss creatures.

Arcana also received the same message, but he didn't seem to worry about the dead acolytes. Instead, he was more anxious that one day had passed and he had almost zero points.

"Commander, I have done as you ask. Now get me more points," said Arcana.

Emery glanced at him, and when Arcana saw Emery's serious gaze at him, he hastily corrected himself by saying, "I mean, please help me get more points, commander.. please."

Arcana looked at Emery with a hopeful expression on his face. Emery, on the other hand, instead of giving him an answer, took out his orbiter and made a gesture for Arcana to follow him, which was immediately obeyed by the latter.

Emery flew to the sky above the settlement and in the next minute started to observe the situation in and around the village, and then explained.

"We are hoping to get 200 to 300 thousand points by saving more survivors. This will be our main goal, and in order to accomplish it, we need a safe place for the survivors to stay for a few days. This village should serve as a good place to start."

Emery was well aware that the kid-looking acolyte was hoping for something more personal and action-oriented, such as high-tier monster-hunting. As a result, Emery's line of conversation at the moment caused Arcana some concern.

"So you want me to build walls? I am an acolyte of the light element, I can't make walls,"

"No, let me show you my plan,"

Emery chose a location on the northern side of the settlement, which consisted of a wide expanse of yellow plains. He jumped down from the orbiter and touched the ground with both hands before it slowly began to shake as he continued to cast a spell.

[Undermaster]

A huge hole was created in front of them, about dozens of meters deep. It was a deep pit hole.

Afterward, Emery went on to explain,

"If your skill is really capable of luring abyss creatures, we should set up a trap for them, so that we can easily kill them for points."

As soon as he heard Emery's words just now, Arcana suddenly turned excited, and Emery added,

"I will need a few days to create large enough traps. For now, you should scout the area and maybe start bringing small numbers first to test it out tomorrow."

Hearing the plan, Arcana grew excited.

This plan would actually work much better if Emery could pull more Earth element acolytes to help him, but the troop really was stretched thin. Aside from that, Emery had his own motives, as he sort of needed to practice his earth element for a bit.

Arcana nodded his head and followed Emery's command without raising any questions. He began to move in order to inspect the surrounding location, and as soon as he left the place,

ᴡ ᴏᴠʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛʀs ᴀʀ ᴘᴜʙʟsʜᴅ ᴏ ᴀʟʟᴏᴠʟ ꜰᴜʟʟ.

Emery decided to sit in the middle of the yellow plains in a lotus position.

At this moment, his intention was no other than to settle on the bottleneck on his core.

[Spirit Force: 1350]

[Acolyte Rank 9 - Early Stage - 6 Pillars Formed]

[Plant Spirit - 1 Pillar]

[Water Spirit - 1 Pillar]

[Earth Spirit - 1 Pillar]

[Darkness Spirit - 2 Pillars]

[Undefined - 1 Pillar]

His accumulated spirit force was enough to create two pillars; one on his dark core and another on his nature core.

With this, Emery concentrated himself to the point that he was completely immersed and drowned himself in the comprehension of the two cores.

The conversations he had with magus Xion and Grandmagus Yvere of the plant institutes, gave him a better understanding of the characteristics of his pillars.

For the darkness core, it was the comprehension of the law of space. By mastering and continuously using [Spatial Gate] and the newfound [Void] spell, he could feel that he had enough comprehension to create one more darkness pillar.

On the other hand, for the nature side, he hadn't got much improvement in his comprehension of water elements when it came to the nature core. But fortunately, he had enough accumulated comprehension of the earth and plant elements.

Emery knew that he only had enough spirit force to choose one out of the two and he actually had been hoping to improve his Earth element instead.

The reason with his [Mineralized Warriors] that he would put a lot of reliance on the next 9 days, plus the fact that his defensive spell [Jade Skin] or [Jade Wall] had been lacking to fight against his current opponents.

There was also the reason which currently lay in front of him. A stronger earth spell would help him in preparing the massive trap needed for the abyss creature.

Because of this, he came to the conclusion that, given the choice between the two, it would be much easier to form his earth pillar instead.

Without giving it a second thought, Emery released the spirit energy that had been pressing on his two cores and began to use his [Dao of Divine Technique] as a way to balance the flow into the two foundations.

In the next few hours, the spirit energy slowly condensed and reformed with his comprehension of the elements.

There was a little tremor on the nature foundation that gave him a little concern before the little tendril-like energy emerged from its surface like a little flare. Emery could feel the firm strong energy of the earth pulsating within it before it was fully formed.

[Seventh pillar was formed - Earth Element]

[Spirit force increases exponentially]

Seeing the pillars were successfully formed, Emery certainly was relieved.

Despite the fact that there was a little bumpy start, in the end, the earth element pillar was formed perfectly. Following that, he began to take the next stage in the process.

Now, it was the time to balance the energy with his darkness core.

However, just as he was about to begin the process of forming the darkness pillar, something unexpected happened in the midst of the process. He was taken by surprise when a large amount of energy was drawn to the undefined pillar instead, and as a result, Emery suddenly felt pain within his core.

Arrghhh!!!
