Chapter 1307 News

Emery was shocked when presented with such a disastrous scene. He didn't expect that it would escalate so quickly into an all-out battle.

He knew he had to stop this. But how? How could he stop such a battle with his measly strength?

At the moment, Emery could see Elder Sinure dash into the fray to help the other two elders fighting the Supreme Commander, turning the fight into a deadlock.

Seeing such a high-level battle firsthand was certainly both a terrifying and eye-opening experience for Emery. However, he quickly woke up from his reverie; each second he wasted meant more innocent lives lost and more chance that the enemy would succeed in their plan.

"I have to stop this right now!"

Emery didn't waste any time. He cast his spells and shot into the sky, aiming to get close to the Supreme Commander. However, he couldn't even run a mile before sparks of spirit energy came flying at him, forcing him to stop in his tracks.

Even the resulting clash of their weapons could generate a powerful blast that made his spirit core go into disarray. Knowing that the blast was merely a small aftermath, he couldn't imagine accidentally getting hit by one of those attacks.

It didn't take him long to realize his initial plan was a suicidal endeavor.

Knowing that he couldn't afford to be rash, Emery quickly reigned in his urgency and calmed himself down before proceeding to observe the situation again. He then promptly worked his brain, trying to find the next best solution to this issue.

Seemingly thinking of an idea, his figure disappeared from where he was as he quickly made his way towards a group of half-blood warriors who seemed to have been holding their ground and fighting off the relentless bombardment from the Magus Alliance spaceships.

[Blink] [Blink] [Blink]

He cast his spatial spell several times to avoid all the spells and magus in his path. Eventually, he reached the group of half-bloods and immediately walked up to the one who led them.

The other party was one of the Flagbearers, the chief of his clan, Heorgar the Demon Wolf; and the man certainly looked surprised to see that he was here.

"Emery!? What are you doing here?!"

Even though he understood the man's questioning words very well, Emery couldn't explain because it would take up too much time that he didn't have. Hence, he immediately went and stated his purpose.

"Chief, this is very urgent. I need your help to stop the fight; help me get near the Supreme Commander!"

In order to even allow his attempt of persuasion to be possible, Emery understood that he needed someone who trusted him enough to help without much explanation. And among the people he had seen in this place, the Demon Wolf was the most suitable candidate.

Noticing the look in Emery's eyes, the man nodded despite his confusion. He quickly grabbed Emery into his arm, and immediately a pitch-black shadow covered their entire bodies as the Demon Wolf dashed towards the hot zone, bringing the latter with him.

"What is the Flagbearer doing?!"

"Heorgaar!! Are you crazy?!"

Heorgar bulldozed through anything in his path without making an effort to dodge. He clashed with all sorts of spells, his body was burned and badly injured at the expense of speed; but this action of his had managed to put him right in the middle of the battle, causing both sides to come to a halt.

It was certainly a risky move, but fortunately, although the Supreme Commander was still annoyed by the transgression towards him earlier, the man was astute enough to realize that something was amiss.

Under the gazes of the four powerful figures, Heorgar slowly raised both his hands. Gradually, the pitch-black liquid receded like a wave, revealing what was hidden beneath. To their surprise, it was merely an acolyte.

"What is the meaning of this?!!" Lilith shouted in irritation. Dark blazing flames were lingering on both of her arms, showing that she was still very much prepared for battle.

Knowing his chance was limited, Emery's mind went through a rapid thought process, marshaling his train of thought, before saying, "Forgive me, esteemed elders, but please hear me out. I have brought important news from the Magus Academy and Golden City!"

Those words only brought frowns to those who listened, especially the fiery female grand magus.

"Why are you the one who brought it? Don't bother us and get the fuck off! Or I will turn you into ashes!"

Emery did not respond with words and instead took out the silver emblem Grand Magus Aurora had given him. He raised his hand high, showing the emblem clearly, then said, "Please, the Oracle herself asked me to deliver news that there will be an attack of grand scale on Golden City and Magus Academy."

Due to his experience with Magister Griffith, Emery didn't start with his tales of time travel and instead used all the right words to grab these people's attention. Now that he finally had it, he turned to the Supreme Commander and spoke with the utmost respect.

"Elder, I bring news that the situation with the half-bloods is merely a distraction to cover up the real enemy's movements. Thousands of elves will spawn within the Magus Academy, and an elven armada will enter the sector; all in less than an hour."

Seeing the look of disbelief on the Supreme Commander's face, Emery quickly bowed and said, "Please believe my words, Elder. You can even examine my memory; that way, you will know that I'm telling the truth."

​ A split second after he said those words, Emery could feel his mind being swept away by a powerful force. Even though he was prepared, he was still caught off guard and needed a moment to gather himself.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Commander heaved a sigh and said, "There's an anomaly in your memory."

This was the one problem with his plan, Emery didn't know if his memory on the time travel could be examined or not, and the Supreme Commander's words worried him.

However, even though he said such words, the dark-haired man quickly sent out a ceasefire order to the two Magus Alliance ships above. Immediately after, without saying a word, he turned around and dashed towards the teleportation gate.

"Where the hell do you think you are going?!" said Grand Magus Lilith loudly, still thirsting for battle.

She was stopped by Elder Sinure before she could give chase. Then, the Bird bloodline elder walked up to Emery and proceeded to examine his memory.

The Elder gives him an unusual gaze but decides to turn to his two comrades, and his words shock them both. "Elder Shan has betrayed us and is currently breaking Esbern out of the Golden City's prison."

"That's impossible!"

Saying those words, Grand Magus Lilith charged at Emery. With her body still covered in blazing flames, she put her hand on his head and began examining his mind. Again, Emery let her do what she wanted regardless of the extreme discomfort caused by so many hasty mind-readings.

Meanwhile, due to the flames enveloping her body, Emery felt an excruciating sensation as his body was roasted by the intense heat. Fortunately, Elder Sinure quickly provided assistance to relieve the sensation.

The female grand magus' hand withdrew from his forehead, and a furious shout exploded from her mouth.

"That old geezer!! We have been played by him!" Turning to her two comrades, she spoke through gritted teeth. "We're going to Golden City, now!"

But then, to everyone's surprise, they saw the Supreme Commander flying back. With a contemplative look on his face, the man said, "It appears they have managed to sabotage our teleportation gate."

Emery was immediately overcome with worry when he heard those words.

Without the teleportation gate, he wouldn't be able to return to the academy in time.
