Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe-Chapter 270 Breached

The Iron Mammoth was a Rank 1 magical beast with one of the greatest defenses amidst other beasts of the same rank. It barely had any offensive capabilities, however, just its defensive abilities alone made it a force to reckon with.

And right now, such a magical beast was heading toward the city gates. If it wasn't stopped in time, then Stardale was doomed.

The ground trembled beneath this colossal beast as it slowly made its way toward its objective. Thanks to the Rank 2 orcs keeping the Rank 2 Magi of the allied forces busy, the mammoth was unobstructed for the most part.

Its eyes glowed a sinister red and its trumpeting shook the very air. Seeing such a behemoth approach the city, the Magi stationed atop the walls were frozen in fear and shock. But the next moment, they gritted their teeth and prepared to attack.

They had to defend the city gate at all costs! If they failed, countless people inside the city would be slaughtered by the rampaging beasts outside the walls.

The Rank 1 Magi let out screams of encouragement as their robes fluttered in the strong wind. They raised their hands and bright colored magic circles lit up one by one. They hurled all types of elemental spells at the mammoth, trying to stop its advance.

Ice shards rained down on the creature, causing it to momentarily slow down as the ground beneath it froze solid. Small spheres of flames exploded against its thick hide, sending plumes of black smoke into the air.

But the mammoth was relentless. Nothing could penetrate its defenses. It plowed through all the spells aimed at it and slowly etched closer to the city gates. Its sheer size and power were overwhelming.

The Magi could only watch in horror as the creature drew closer and closer to the gates. But despite that, they did not flee. They held their ground and continued to hurl one spell after another.

Under the onslaught of countless spells, the mammoth's hide was slowly beginning to turn bloody. But this creature did not care. Even if it died, it would make sure to crush the gates. This was the only directive that constantly echoed inside his mind.

"Don't give up!"

"It's not invincible. Look!"

"The beast is slowing down!"

"Attack! Attack! Don't stop!"

The Magi's morale was suddenly uplifted as the mammoth's speed was reduced. However, it continued to move forward. Slowly, but surely, the creature was getting closer to the gates.

Seeing this, the hearts of the Magi were gripped by apprehension. Their actions turned desperate as they continued to cast spells at an even quicker rate. They watched in abject terror as the creature got closer to them.

The next moment, the mammoth's eyes gleamed with primal ferocity as it picked up speed once again. Its body was grievously injured by the constant bombardment of so many spells. It left a trail of blood in its wake, but still, it moved forward. Until finally...

BAM!

With a thunderous clash, the mammoth slammed into the gates, its tusks piercing through the wood and iron with great ease. The two walls--northeast and northwest--connected to this gate trembled violently.

However, the gate remained standing. Witnessing this scene, the Magi atop the walls screamed in a panic.

"Quickly cast your spell!"

"Give it everything you've got!"

"We cannot allow the beast to charge again!"

Once again, spells showered down on the mammoth as it removed its tusks from the gates with great difficulty. Slowly, it retreated one step at a time, all the while continuing to endure the injuries accumulating on its body.

The mammoth's bloodshot eyes turned maniacal as it once again charged at the gates. It knew that death was waiting on the other side, yet it moved forward with unprecedented madness.

Realizing that spells wouldn't stop the creature in the little time that remained before it smashed against the gates again, the Magi stationed on the walls hurriedly evacuated.

Their faces were filled with regret and fear as they knew what would happen after the city gates were broken through. However, they could now do nothing about it. They had failed.

With a final roar that seemed to declare the end of its life, the mammoth smashed the gate one more time.

BAM!

The gates splintered and the walls around it buckled as the humongous creature burst through. The mammoth roared triumphantly as it entered the city.

But it had only taken a few steps before the light in its eyes dimmed. The madness that had once gleamed in its red eyes was now replaced by a trace of sanity, followed by immense anger, sadness, and finally regret.

The mammoth died, however, it had achieved its purpose. When the orcs outside the city walls witnessed this scene, they burst into cheers as they slowly made their way toward the broken gate.

Meanwhile, the Rank 2 Magi could only helplessly stare at this spectacle from afar. Even if they wanted to help, they couldn't. The orcs had kept them at bay.

The safety of Stardale now depended on the outcome of the war between Rank 1s. After all, in the battle between Rank 2 Magi, it was highly difficult to kill one another.

Panic erupted inside the city walls as the residents fled in terror, trying to escape the rampaging beasts that were flooding through the destroyed gates. The Magi on the walls were stunned and helpless, their spells having failed to stop the mammoth's charge.

Although the mammoth had now died, the city had been breached, and the magical beasts wreaked havoc, laying waste to everything in their path.

Adam, who had seen this entire spectacle unfold, had a dumbfounded look on his face. He stood on the roof of his living quarter as he saw utter pandemonium descend near the city gates.

Everything had happened so fast that it left him standing frozen in shock. Not even a minute had passed since the sound of the trumpet was heard, but the city had already been breached.

Suddenly, he remembered something that caused his face to darken. "Lisa and Galriel had been positioned on the wall for night duty!"

He tightly clenched his fist as his expression turned grim. "Val."

"Myu!" The little guy turned into a gray flash and jumped inside the youth's spirit sea.

The next moment, pristine white mana surrounded Adam's feet as he slightly crouched down, gathered all his strength, and launched himself in the air. The roof below his feet was instantly destroyed as he vaulted into the distance.

Please be safe!
