Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe-Chapter 544 Entrance
544 Entrance
The group of Magi hurriedly made their way to the center of the crater, toward the place where Adam was standing.
"The mana fluctuations here…" Hudson couldn't help but loudly gulp. The closer he got to the center, the more it felt like the gravity in that area was intensifying.
He couldn't even begin to imagine that such were the after-effects of the magic combat technique that Adam had just executed.
They found themselves unable to breathe. It was like the very air was weighing down on them. It was oppressive!
"Adam!" Yavia called out as she flew toward the center.
But she received no response.
Her heart sank when she noticed this, and she couldn't help but imagine the worst. With great difficulty, she flew toward him and immediately checked his pulse.
Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief. It would appear that Adam had only lost consciousness.
"What happened?!" Hudson approached them. "Is he alright?"
Yavia nodded. "Yes, he's just knocked out."
The Magi from the Brotherhood gasped in astonishment.
"He's unconscious… but he's still standing on his feet?" Hudson was overwhelmed by emotions.
Just what kind of monster is he? He simply refuses to fall even when he's not awake! Truly incredible!
Yavia glanced at the raven-haired youth's right arm and her expression turned solemn. The skin on his arm had burned away, revealing the damaged muscles and tendons.
Moreover, pieces of bones were jutting out all throughout his right arm.
"The fact that his arm is still in one piece is a miracle…" She muttered to herself.
If it wasn't for Adam practicing the Astral Tyrant Manual that constantly strengthened his body, his right arm would have truly been destroyed.
"Brother!!" A booming voice sounded from the sky.
Everyone turned in the direction of the voice and saw an enormous black panther with feathered wings flying toward them.
The Magi from the Brotherhood instantly formed a perimeter around Adam, drawing out their weapons.
Seeing this, Yavia calmed them down. "That's Adam's familiar. You may all relax."
The winged panther landed on the ground, and from his back, three young Magi dismounted.
"Professor!" Eleiney, Aiden, and Art ran toward the youth, their faces filled with panic and anxiety.
Hudson stopped Art and solemnly asked, "Why did you leave that group? Aren't they—"
Art cut him off before rushing past him. "The weeping trees have been neutralized. The refugees are safe and returning back."
"Neutralized?" Hudson was confused.
He looked around in the distance and saw that the trees had indeed stopped flailing around. Now, they looked like regular, withered trees.
Valerian approached Adam, walked around him, and made him gently lay down on his torso. He then began licking his cheeks, mentally calling out to him.
'Brother! Brother, wake up! It's me!'
Adam's eyelids twitched before he slowly opened them. "Hmm? Little Val?"
His vision was still blurry and bloody. He could identify everyone here except the Magi from the Brotherhood.
Seeing him come to, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"I told you not to overdo it!" Yavia screamed at the top of her lungs. "Look what happened now! Your right arm is completely damaged! Aggghhhh!! You never listen!"
Adam weakly turned his head, glancing at his wrecked right arm. He sighed wistfully, "Ah, I can't feel my arm anymore…"
"What… What do you mean, Professor?" Eleiney asked in disbelief.
"Are you saying… you'll never be able to use your arm again?" Aiden asked with tearful eyes.
"Hah?" Adam looked at him like he was an idiot. "When did I say that, my foolish disciple?"
"Professor…" Art wiped away his tears. "So that means you're going to be alright?"
"Hehe," Adam chuckled softly. He then looked at Yavia, who was glaring at him, and asked, "Say, Yavia. Am I going to be alright?"
Yavia turned into a flash of green light and slapped Adam.
POW!
"Kuacckk!!" He flew away into the distance, spewing blood from his mouth.
"I've always wanted to do that," said the little wood spirit, a devious smirk forming on her lips.
Meanwhile, the Magi from the Brotherhood felt a cold chill run down their spines.
Hudson glanced at the harmless, pixie-like being and thought to himself, What… what the heck? Who is this monster?
The following moment, Yavia weaved a series of complex hand gestures, following which a tiny portal to the Spirit World materialized behind her.
From the portal, two wood spirits flew out. They first glanced at their surroundings, wondering which hell hole they had arrived at.
Finally, their gaze fell on Yavia.
"Young Lady!" They flew before her and respectfully bowed.
"Go back to the village and bring me the Red Adenium plaster. Also, get three drops of Crystal Cossandra," said Yavia flatly.
"EHHH?!" The two wood spirits felt their eyes popping out of their sockets.
"Red Adenium?! Crystal Cossandra?! Those are the treasures of our village!"
"The plaster is still doable, but three drops of Cossandra?! Even Rank 3 Spirits have to pay an enormous price for just one drop! Let alone three!"
"Young Lady, the Matriarch would never allow it!"
Yavia clicked her tongue in annoyance. She knew exactly how precious these items were.
But she feared that if she didn't use these materials and heal Adam, then he would never be able to use his arm. Furthermore, there was also a great possibility of him going blind!
As her healing spirit, it was her duty to heal him to the best of her abilities.
"Tell Mother it's for Adam. She'll understand." Yavia waved her hand dismissively.
The two wood spirits looked at each other before helplessly nodding. Then, they flew back into the portal.
Hudson, who was standing nearby, overheard their conversation and was shocked.
Materials that even Rank 3 Spirits would fight over?! Does that mean the clan she comes from also has a Rank 3 Spirit or someone even more powerful who can safeguard these materials?!
He then looked at Adam who was lying lifelessly in the rubble, thinking to himself, This kid…
Just how many powerful Magi does he know? Then there are also rumors about his mentor going into seclusion to advance to Rank 4 - Mana Core Rank!
Just as he was lost in thought, an Agent rushed toward him from the distance. "Brother Hudson!"
"Hmm? What is it?"
The Agent was panting for air, but the excitement in his eyes could not be hidden.
"We discovered the entrance to an ancient ruin underneath this crater!"
