The Golem Mage

Chapter 254: Evil Sect (3).

Terran decided not to engage in conversation with Maze, unable to determine if he was responsible for the unsettling feeling he experienced, he had other suspicions also.

Instead, he lightly tapped on the side of his wolf mount, signaling it to ascend into the sky.

The Minotaur quickly caught on to Terran’s strategy of wanting to fight in the air and not cause casualties among the low rank mages, so he stomped on the ground, causing a powerful force to lift him up.

bringing him face to face with Terran, The Minotaur’s immense stature made it difficult for them to have a direct confrontation at eye level.

Terran had to look up in order to meet the Minotaur’s eyes.

He couldn’t help but notice the disdainful expression and faint grin that adorned the Minotaur’s lips.

With folded arms, the Minotaur loomed over him, his war hammer seemingly floating by his side as if controlled by an unseen force.

”Don’t tell me you believe you can stop me now,and all by yourself ” the Minotaur taunted, stringing together words effortlessly.

Terran was left speechless, as he had always viewed the Minotaur race as barbaric.

Most barbaric races struggled to speak the common language of the Earth realm, and even if they could, their accents were often unpleasant.

Terran mustered his resolve and replied,

”You see no one else here besides myself, correct? Isn’t that enough for you to understand that I intend to stop you?”

Terran replied confidently, as if it was a normal thing for a Tier 7 Mage to stand in front of a Tier 8 Mage and claim to be of equal power.

The minotaur snorted, observing Terran carefully.

”I have a mission here, and I would appreciate it if you would move out of the way and allow me to proceed.”

”I don’t want to end the life of such a talented human like yourself, I would rather you live long so we can battle more in the future,”

the Minotaur said with a hint of admiration.

”I’m sorry, but I just can’t do that, I have a duty to follow every order of the academy I teach in, and this time my orders have been to stop the highest gun,” Terran taunted, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

”So be it,” the Minotaur declared, wasting no more words.

He stretched out his hands and tightly gripped his massive war hammer, swinging it directly at Terran.

Terran, in return, swung his own large Greatsword.

As the sword moved, a huge Earth essence seemed to coat itself around it.

And Even before both weapons made contact, the clash produced different types of electricity and large sparking thunders, booming from the collision.

And it appeared as if the flashy Greatsword, supported by a massive Earth essence coating, was halted by the original War Hammer.

But The force of the Original War Hammer could not be fully understood by the low rank mages, but those Low and Mid Ranks mages with more experience and power could sense it’s immense strength that was not any lower than the Earth essence.

The separation of the weapons caused a deafening bang, causing the watching low rank mages to feel as if they had been assaulted by a destructive sonic magic.

Blood started to trickle from their ears, and the leaders quickly took measures to protect their group in case of another attack of that magnitude.

The expression on the Minotaur’s face changed from arrogance to surprise, realizing that the opponent he had underestimated was much stronger than expected.

”You, my challenger, have proven to be my greatest obstacle in breaching the city,” the Minotaur said, his twisted smile growing.

”I never expected you to be this formidable.”

Terran, with a frown on his face, replied,

”Thank you for the compliment, I did not anticipate my strike to be repelled so easily too, For the first time, I feel that I have met my match.”

The Minotaur effortlessly pushed back the heavy earth essence, which weighed more than a mountain.

This surprised Terran, as he had previously been able to control and even kill enemies with this power, particularly those who were unaware of his abilities as it had became his element of surprise card.

He had only being able to wield such potent Earth Essence due to the fact that his Earth manipulation was very high level.

The Orcs, however, was aware of Terran’s strength and remained cautious, and that is why it has been long he killed any Tier 8 Orcs recently.

Terran knew that unless he found a miraculous way to advance to the next level of power, the element of surprise that had been his advantage had been easily neutralized.

This forced him to take the battle seriously, realizing that it might be one of his most challenging encounters yet.

Despite not having won yet, Terran remained confident in his ability to emerge victorious.

”The mission I came for can wait,” the Minotaur declared, his body shivering with excitement.

”It’s been too long since I’ve felt the thrill of battle, and I want to see just where your limits lie.”

Walter received a sound transmission from Terran, cautioning him to be careful.

Terran believed that the mastermind behind all the strange occurrences in the city was still hiding among the crowd of city mages.

While Terran had initially suspected Maze as the prime suspect, he couldn’t shake the feeling that someone else was trying to manipulate him into believing that Maze was the main culprit.

Terran found Maze’s behavior suspicious, and even if he wasn’t directly involved in the city’s death, he believed that Maze was participating in something shady.

Terran had been playing a dangerous game, using his anger and outbursts to lure out the true mastermind behind the scenes.

He found this mysterious figure to be truly terrifying, able to predict events and well-versed in manipulating Maze to fit Terran’s perspective.

The actions of this shadowy force sent a chill down Terran’s spine.

Since arriving in the city, he had been investigating Maze and was surprised at how easily the spies he planted had acquired private and important information about Maze.

This led Terran to remove Maze from his list of potential killers of the city lord, as someone patient enough to poison the lord would have tighter security regarding their activities and information.

Terran had multiple plans to draw out the true enemy in the shadows, and charging into battle so early on was one of them.

This was why he urged Walter to exercise caution, knowing that the time for action would come after he had lured the main enemy out into the open.
