Mage Adam

Chapter 267: Getting In (2)

"I need you to draw all the fire in the area to ensure I can reach and enter the warning zone."

"You want to go in the warning zone? But what's the use? You can't go deeper," Qi 31 asked, confused.

Adam enlarged the map and pointed to a complex and unique building, "These buildings are along the entire defense zone. It's the only structure made of ore that I can see. I must know its purpose."

Iron 27 didn't question Adam's goal, only saying, "It's hard. There are too many Metal Eaters here. Even if we risk our lives, we can only buy a little time."

Adam took out two thousand units of ether crystals from his storage and handed them to the two, "This is high-level energy. It will keep your energy supply at its peak."

Iron 27 took a piece and put it in his mouth, feeling an unprecedented surge of vitality. His eyes lit up, "Perfect energy! With this, we can extend the time, but only up to forty minutes. Otherwise, we'll still perish."

Forty minutes was enough for Adam.

"You don't need to risk your lives. I only need thirty minutes. Hold them off for thirty minutes, and I'll come out to meet you. Then we'll use teleportation to return to York City."

Adam summoned Lina, ordering her to control the Metal Eaters whom she had planted seeds in before. Even a little chaos would help.

Lina, participating in such a high-level battle for the first time, was excited and scared. She almost trembled as she equipped her gear, kneeling in front of Adam and swearing to die for the cause.

Sophia switched to her battle mode, also fully armed. Adam left a thread in her mind to ensure she could perform at her best.

He then summoned a two-meter-high magic construct, transforming into his Electro True Self and entering the core. After activating the construct, his immense magic power, nearing level-three peak, surged skyward, breaking through the invisible field and facing the swarming Metal Eaters.

For the first time since arriving on Titania, the brilliance of runes shone so freely.

They flew out from every corner of the construct, swirling around Adam.

In the next second, they shot in all directions, forming one magic array after another.

These arrays combined, creating a square barrier centered on Adam.

Magic burned, elements gathered, and massive energy was condensed and shaped.

The Metal Eaters were fully visible on Adam's radar, with the voltage difference targeting method accurately pinpointing each one.

"Wide-range Super Plasma Cannon!"

"Wide-range Super Railgun!"

As soon as he finished chanting, the magic activated instantly.

Endless flashes of electricity dimmed the sky. Blazing plasma, high-frequency oscillating metal particles, and strong magnetic fields appeared simultaneously.

This composite spell showed immense power, even impressing Adam, its creator.

Adam dedicated 40% of his computing power to ensure the spell wouldn't collapse. After half a second of calibration, the composite spell shot out.

Electric currents interwoven, magnetic fields interacted, and iron sand collided, creating a beautiful scene before Adam. For the Metal Eaters, however, it was a nightmare.

Their once-reliable defense fields shattered like thin paper. Corrosive fluids and oxidizing rays evaporated instantly upon release.

They hurriedly changed formations, but their speed couldn't match the spell's velocity. Even the level-four Commanders turned to ashes under the intense heat and energy.

After a violent explosion, the world cleared. A massive gap was torn in the Metal Eaters' line, the composite spell annihilating at least 20,000 of them.

Adam didn't revel in the power. The construct's energy core had been connected to his storage space, so he had nearly endless ether crystals burning to replenish the energy.

He dashed forward like a bolt of lightning, exploiting the gap in the Metal Eaters' defense.

He left only one word, "Go," waking the two stunned Titans.

Iron 27 and Qi 31, after considering, realized they couldn't withstand the spell Adam unleashed in five seconds. Any defense would leave them as nothing but dust like the Metal Eaters.

Exchanging glances, they launched their strongest attacks and flew in opposite directions.

Adam had entrusted his life to them, and they were willing to bet their lives to repay that trust.

Sophia let out a resounding dragon roar, attacking in another direction.

Lina leaped onto her back, communicating with the controlled Metal Eaters. Though not expecting much from them, she sent out erroneous signals, disrupting the Metal Eaters' commands.

...

After breaking through the first line of defense, Adam moved across the battlefield in his Electro True Self form. This form, once described by Garfield as cunning, now proved invaluable.

In the storm of energy, the fluctuations caused by Electro True Self were barely noticeable. With the Metal Eaters losing their target, they swarmed towards the other directions.

In their minds, all intruders were targets for destruction. They would pursue energy fluctuations to find their targets, and once a target disappeared, their attention would shift to other intruders. This was a major flaw of a swarm species with weak autonomous thinking abilities. They had high execution power but poor adaptability.

Time passed slowly. After five minutes, Adam finally found an unobstructed route. He extended his fingers and shot dozens of electric currents in all directions. Each current branched out like a tree in the air.

His Electro True Self followed closely, leaping forward within the currents. If a current was neutralized or extinguished, he would immediately switch to a safe branch line, ensuring he wouldn't be completely trapped.

Adam called this spell 'Lightning Dash'.

This unique mode of advance was highly effective. Though the Metal Eaters continually tried to block the currents, new branches appeared faster than they could destroy them. Adam rapidly approached his destination.

Lightning Dash had its drawbacks: it consumed a lot of magic power and required significant computational power. It was tailored for Adam, and even other mages with Electro True Self might not be able to use it effectively.

For a minute, Adam zigzagged through the mesh of currents and finally reached the edge of the guard zone.

Just then, a shadow appeared abruptly on the warning zone's defense shield. Without any warning or charging time, a rainbow-colored energy beam shot directly at Adam."
