Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe

Chapter 94 Coiling Palm

Countless red-eyed bats descended as their screeches constantly echoed in the cavern. Seeing the sea of bats diving toward them, the Magi lost all composure they had. They looked on with disbelief.

Magus Karl fell to his knees, his body trembling. "T-Those are vampire bats!!"

Vampire bats were a species of bats that were known to feast on blood. Moreover, they would continue to drain the blood out of their victims until all that remained was a dried-up husk.

Magus Emory seemed to have lost all hope. "There are hundreds of them… No, there might even be a thousand… we're doomed!"

"Huddle together and focus on defending, huh?" Edward repeated Adam's parting words, anxiety gripping his heart. "So this is what he meant."

He lowered his head and saw that Adam had already rushed in the direction of the vampire. Then, he looked at Lisa and asked, "So what do we do? You got any ideas?"

Lisa, who was trying her best to keep a calm state of mind, looked at Edward and nodded with clenched fists. "I do, but…"

She then looked at Magus Emory and Karl and continued, "We'll need everyone's joint effort if we wanna come out of this alive."

Hearing her words, Count Hannes looked at the two useless Magi and roared, "Get on your feet if you wanna live! Emory, don't you wish to find your son? Karl, don't you wish to return home to your newborn granddaughter? Get the hell up and fight!"

The two Magi seemed to have been brought back to life as a fire lit inside of them after hearing the Count's words.

Lisa looked at them and nodded, "So, here's what we're going to do…"

After listening to her instructions, everyone got into position. Suddenly, the Count looked at Edward and Lisa and smiled bitterly. "Our survival is completely contingent on Adam defeating the vampire. Do you really think he can?"

Even the Count himself didn't have any confidence to stand up against the vampire, let alone Adam who was two minor stages lower than him.

"He will win!" Both Lisa and Edward replied simultaneously, their voices filled with confidence.

As countless vampire bats rained down on them with bloodthirsty eyes, the five Magi began weaving hand signs and sacrificing the required material components to cast a joint spell.

…

Mana gathered on Adam's gauntlets as he dashed toward the vampire. He knew that if he wanted to interrupt the spawn from completing the ritual, he had to first go through the vampire.

When the vampire saw Adam rushing toward him with his gauntlets covered in pure mana, for the first time today, he felt a sense of crisis.

When Adam had first landed a blow on him earlier, that was simply him being taken by surprise, not having expected a mere human to have such speed and strength.

But now, he didn't dare to underestimate the youth. But despite that, the vampire felt pressure from him.

He felt insulted!

"A mere human dares to act so cocky in front of me?!" He rushed toward Adam, overcome by anger. Moreover, he didn't want to fight anywhere near the ritual formation, afraid that he would ruin it.

Adam's and the vampire's fists collided against each other, resulting in a terrifying shockwave. The surrounding air seemed to have been torn apart by the collision of their fists.

The vampire retreated a few steps, meanwhile, Adam was sent flying.

However, the vampire was not happy at all. The fact that the youth was able to make him retreat a few steps was astonishing. The anger in his heart grew. No, forget turning him into a spawn. I must kill him!

Adam got to his feet, his entire body drenched in blood. That last attack made his insides hurt and he spurted a mouthful of blood. But despite that, he got into a fighting position as he thought to himself, I now have a general idea of his strength. All I need to do is adapt!

Once again, the two collided against one another. But this time, Adam's state was not as miserable as the previous time.

They continued to pummel their fists against one another, each attack resulting in an even bigger shockwave than the last.

And with each collision, Adam was slowly beginning to adapt. He was no longer sent flying after each attack. Now, he barely retreated a few steps. However, his body continued to get riddled with injuries, and it looked like he was on his last breath.

But he continued to persevere!

"Damn you!" Unable to bring the youth down, the vampire was livid. "I'll fucking kill you!"

The vampire thrust his claw at the youth's face, intending to pierce the head. Adam used his left hand to parry the attack, using his opponent's force against himself.

His actions were as smooth as flowing water, fully showcasing the essence of the Phantom Dance. Then, he stepped forward and swung his right elbow to deliver a devastating blow to the vampire's face.

The vampire was stunned! This was the first time that Adam had managed to land a critical blow on him other than the first time when he'd been taken by surprise.

Blood spurted out of the vampire's nose as he stumbled backward. He tried to lean forward to regain balance. "You fuckin—"

But right at that moment, Adam had already followed through with a roundhouse kick to the face!

The vampire flew dozens of meters and landed on his back in an extremely haggard state, his lower jaw dislocated. He was shocked by the sudden turn of events.

No matter how much he tried to overestimate the kid's abilities, it still wasn't enough. His lower jaw snapped back into position due to his high regeneration skills.

The vampire realized that he could no longer be influenced by his anger. He hated to admit it, but if he continued to do so, he would very likely be killed by the youth!

All these thoughts went through his head in a matter of split moments. And soon, he got to his feet and got ready to fight Adam, his expression solemn.

But when he looked around, the youth was nowhere to be found. Even with his heightened senses, he couldn't find Adam's presence at all.

Suddenly!

The vampire felt mana fluctuations right behind him, followed by an intense killing intent. But it was too late for him.

Adam, whose body and presence had just become visible after deactivating the Rank 1 Spell: Hide, gathered a large amount of mana into his right palm which was now shaped like a claw.

Then, he viciously stuck the vampire's back with his claw, at the same time twisting his palm at the point of contact.

Hand of Doom: Coiling Palm Strike!

BOOOM!!
