Mage Adam

The Seventh Angel spat out a red energy beam to block the fortress annihilation cannon, then dove back into the ground and vanished.

As soon as Adam finished speaking, the ground cracked open, and four giant bugs burst out. Their bodies were covered with eyes that shot thousands of red beams at Lord Svorsi, trying to turn him into a sieve.

"It looks like we don\'t have time to gather the Titans," Adam said. He jumped off Lord Svorsi\'s shoulder and transformed into Electro True Self. "I\'ll try to hold them off. The Seventh Angel is yours to deal with."

With magic surging, the summoning space opened, and battle-mode Sophia appeared beneath Adam. She spat out a water screen, briefly blocking the red beams aiming at Adam.

At the same time, Adam\'s new magic construct appeared. Armor pieces embedded themselves onto his true form, connecting with Sophia\'s construct and covering him completely.

The red beams crossed through Adam\'s body but were stopped and deflected by the Mage Armor. Adam raised his left hand to create an electric potential difference, unleashing lightning from the void. No matter how the transcendent Metal Eaters dodged, they couldn\'t escape.

This lightning didn\'t kill them but annoyed them greatly. They kept shooting red beams, weaving a net in the sky, aiming to trap or kill Adam, and then attack Lord Svorsi.

Space rippled violently, making Adam\'s teleportation spell unusable.

Sophia spat out dragon breath, forming hundreds of high-pressure water blades. Energy drove the water flow at high speed within them. These water blades then slashed upwards with a whistling sound.

Water and fire clashed, creating large clouds of mist. Adam hid within the mist, controlling magnetism to lift countless metal particles from the ground and underground, forming a hundred-meter-long giant sword.

Electric currents coiled around the sword, and after a brief charge, it shot out.

A big hole appeared in the red net instantly.

Sophia flapped her wings and soared up. At that moment, numerous tentacles shot up from below. A deep roar echoed continuously as the fifth transcendent Metal Eater appeared.

Sophia\'s body glowed with pure white flames. Her speed increased sharply, leaving afterimages in her path.

Reaching the hole, Adam raised both hands above his head and tore apart the red beams, breaking free from the net.

Lord Svorsi\'s reinforcements arrived. He fired a heavy shot at one of the giant bugs, blasting it back into the ground. He wondered aloud, "The Seventh Angel is gone."

Lord Svorsi couldn\'t find him, but Adam could sense him constantly moving deep underground.

"Cover me!" Adam instructed. He left Sophia\'s back and came to the ground.

Placing his hands on the surface, he raised them forcefully, causing the earth to heave like waves. Impurities were expelled, free electrons rearranged, and the metal density increased sharply.

Since the enemy liked to hide underground, Adam decided to turn the land into metal. If he didn\'t come out, he would die below.

This move was effective. The Seventh Angel couldn\'t resist and began to move upwards. Adam floated up, taking cover behind Lord Svorsi. He placed a hand on his shoulder and said, "Blast it."

Lord Svorsi\'s cannon appeared again. This time, Adam used his abilities to help concentrate the energy. With magnetic field constraints, the energy loss of the fortress cannon was greatly reduced, even starting to crystallize.

"Three, two, one, fire!"

The moment the Seventh Angel emerged, he saw the cannon shot coming straight at him. His thousands of eyes showed shock. He opened his mouth, drooling and corroding the ground into deep pits. Then, his whole body twitched as if he was going to vomit.

And he did. He vomited out an offspring.

The Seventh Angel used his child as a shield, his tentacles inserting into it. Just before the cannon hit, he detonated the child, using the energy blast to escape and charge at Lord Svorsi.

The Seventh Angel was about half the size of Lord Svorsi. He was like a meteor, surrounded by burning plasma, seemingly intent on a suicidal collision with Lord Svorsi.

Adam applied a counter-force to himself, detaching from Svorsi\'s body and remounting Sophia. 

He aimed to lure the five giant bugs away from the battlefield, towards a trap set a thousand kilometers away in the floating fortress.

Faced with the charging Seventh Angel, Lord Svorsi instinctively choose to dodge.

But the Seventh Angel didn\'t stop.

Lord Svorsi shouted in alarm, "Adam, his target is you!"

He turned sharply in the air, raising his arms to form a particle sword, and slashed at the Seventh Angel.

Adam felt a sinking feeling and his vision darkened. The five giant bugs used their bodies as walls. They connected their tentacles into a net, completely blocking Adam\'s path. They sprayed their acidic juice, filling Adam\'s vision.

"They sent an Angel and five transcendent Metal Eaters just to kill me? Are these bugs crazy? What good does killing me do for the war?" Adam\'s mind raced, unable to understand the Metal Eaters\' strategy. "Or do they want to capture me alive?"

At that moment, the Seventh Angel let out a silent roar. His sonic energy turned into a spiral with unimaginable heat, spiraling toward Adam. If his body got hit, Adam felt he wouldn\'t survive, and being turned into a pulp would be the best outcome.

"They really want to kill me!"

Adam activated a Chaotic Sanctuary scroll. He spread his fingers, letting magnetic and gravitational lines intertwine at his fingertips.

Then, his fingers moved rapidly, creating ripples of space around him. Countless folds appeared, weakening, refracting, and deflecting the incoming attack.

Next, he crossed his fingers and activated Magnetic Cutting, slicing space into hundreds of fragments.

He then stepped into the chaotic void, protected by Chaotic Sanctuary.

The Seventh Angel let out a low growl and chased Adam, moving incredibly fast. Half his body was already in the void, and the flames in the tumors on his back burned fiercely.

Endless fire appeared out of nowhere, falling from the sky. Each cluster burnt with a metal core, terrifying in its intensity.

"Stop right there!"

Lord Svorsi slashed down with his sword. The massive vibrations of the particle blade created a terrifying cutting force, chopping off a piece of the Seventh Angel\'s body.

Lord Svorsi dissolved the blade arm, grabbed his bleeding limb with both hands, and roared as he pulled him back.

Adam was in the void. Using the scroll\'s power, he continuously used Blink to calmly avoid all the heavenly fire.

Finally, just before the Chaotic Sanctuary disappeared, he emerged thirty kilometers away, then flew off without looking back.
