Age of Adepts

Chapter 529



Chapter 529 An Uphill Battle

Gazlowe was at a critical moment in his evolution. He didn’t want himself being interrupted at this moment.

An elite group of goblin soldiers that had been guarding the surroundings of the ritual hall was immediately ordered to intercept these two adepts.

What made him want to scream out loud was how long the soldiers lasted. They hadn’t even stood three minutes before being annihilated by that fire adept. The opponent had fully demonstrated the terror and power of an otherworldly adept.

The fire adept had turned into a five-meter tall flame fiend. Unbearably hot elementium fire surged out of his body as he casually strolled through the metal corridor. The floor, walls, and the ceiling started to melt under the ambient heat as he passed by. They melted like wax.

The goblin soldiers that dared to attack him were all melted along with the walls; their equipment and flesh turned to liquid. Only the magical machines and goblin chariots could last a bit longer due to the special alloy materials they were composed of.

However, these were not enough for them to harm the terrifying flame fiend.

The beautiful witch, on the other hand, was sitting on the flame fiend’s blazing hand as they slowly advanced towards the ritual hall.

The metal monster that had been cobbled together collapsed to the ground under the terrifying stream of flames. It hadn’t even lasted seven seconds. The body that had been twisted and merged by an outside force shattered into tens of thousands of components that went rolling to every corner of the hall.

“Come out, Gazlowe!” Greem strode forward, his blazing face turned towards the glass vat of blood, “Let me see what you have become.”

The stream of fire in his hand swept forward without a single pause and crashed against the towering glass container.

Even the twenty-centimeter thick tempered glass couldn’t endure such terrifying flames. A crisp crack rang out and the entire container shattered.

A terrifying deluge of blood spilled out from within and clashed with the fire. The strange sight of blood contesting with fire was almost mesmerizing.

A strange and gigantic lifeform appeared before Greem amidst the crimson mist in the air.

It was the brain of a lifeform that had been magnified and enlarged a thousand times!

From a close distance, the white lights running through its uneven and trembling main body that represented mental activity made the brain itself a work of art. A dozen thick and agile brain nerves dangled from the bottom of the brain.

Greem would never have imagined that the short, sly, and dying goblin would have turned himself into a creature like this if it weren’t for sensing Gazlowe’s mental flux within.

Gazlowe’s evolution vaguely resembled the otherworldly Mind Flayers, though just in terms of appearance. If it weren’t for meeting Gazlowe several times before this, Greem would have suspected that the goblin had wholly turned himself into a Mind Flayer.

“Gazlowe, if you choose to submit to me, I can give you the right to continue living! Otherwise… ” Greem took two steps forward and pressed his Ring of Fire towards the monster.

However, the massive brain defeded against all of his attacks with a single white light.

“Submit to you? Hahaha,” Colorful light spilled out of the gigantic brain as if it was thinking, “You should be the one to submit to me!”

The metal passage around Greem suddenly folded inwards under the guidance of some strange power as mental flux radiated out of the giant brain. Greem would have been crushed into meat paste had he not promptly braced the walls with his magma hands.

Joyous and satisfied laughter rang out from the giant brain when it saw Greem trapped between the metal walls. It performed all of its communications psychically due to the lack of a vocal organ.

“Don’t you forget, I have completely assimilated the Steel Capital; you are practically standing in my body right now. Do you want to fight with me while in my base? Hahaha!”

Greem was in a dangerous situation, but there was no trace of fear on his blazing face.

“Is it done yet, Alice? It’s tough trying to hold out here.” Greem finally couldn’t help but complain.

Alice?

It was only now that the giant brain noticed that it hadn’t kept track of the female adept during this entire fight.

The location of the female adept now seemed to be at the space furnace.

This thing that should never have happened with Gazlowe’s evolved and impeccable brain had just happened before his eyes!
