Greatest Legacy of the Magus Universe-Chapter 275 Judgement

A series of explosions suddenly went off, turning this part of the battlefield as bright as day. The potions of explosions came together and compounded over exponentially, resulting in devastating damage.

At once, a large number of enemies were blasted to mincemeat. The explosions continued for a while, and after they died down, the patch of land in front of Adam and the Magi had no one left standing.

The ground was charred black and one could see dismembered corpses strewn around. Such a scene left everyone stunned and once again silence descended upon the battlefield momentarily.

Adam, who was standing on the earthen platform, controlled it to fly toward the city wall. He then landed atop the wall after canceling the spell. As soon as his feet touched the ground, his knees immediately buckled and he fell down.

His chest heaved up and down as he took large mouthfuls of air. He was truly exhausted, both physically and mentally. The youth had never fought such an intense battle for so long before.

The Magi nearby hurriedly surrounded him, glancing at him with deep admiration as well as concern. Adam looked at one of them and asked weakly, "What about the gate?"

"It has been repaired!" A young Magus replied with shining eyes. He had seen Adam's battle from beginning to end. And now the latter had become his role model.

"Make way!"

"Move!"

The Magi of the Roy Family suddenly made their way through the crowd and approached the youth. Elton crouched down beside him and first observed his injuries. He then looked in the distance and screamed, "We need a healer! Quick!"

He glanced back at the youth and asked with complicated emotions, "Magus Adam, you… if you had those potions of explosions with you, then why didn't you use them before when the war with the orcs had begun?"

According to Elton, if these potions had been used at the beginning of the war more than two months ago, they would have had significantly fewer casualties.

"I had always meant to use them toward the end. This is our trump card, after all…" Adam faintly smiled. "And it seems like tonight's battle will decide whether the city still stands or not."

Had he used it at the onset of the war, the enemy would have already found ways to counter it by now. But now that he had used these potions of explosion, the enemy was caught by surprise, resulting in significantly more casualties.

Elton deeply glanced at Adam and then nodded. "This must mean you have more, yes?"

"Heh," Adam smirked. "Naturally."

The following moment, he told the Magi around him to make some space. He weakly sat back up, leaning against the wall. Then, he waved his hand and a dozen large, wooden chests appeared in front of him.

A collective gasp could be heard from the Magi. An unbelievable thought occurred in their minds and they couldn't help but be shocked by it.

Elton glanced at all the chests in disbelief, he then looked at Adam and spoke in a trembling voice, "D-Don't tell me… All these are…"

"Uh-huh." Adam nodded as he chugged one healing potion after another. "Each chest contains about 50 explosion potions, give or take. Distribute them equally between the northeast and the northwest wall."

"50 explosions each?!" Elton was dumbfounded. The rest of the Magi also had their jaws touching the ground.

This meant that with a wave of his hand, Adam had already brought out close to 600 potions of explosion. Just the thought of them hurling these potions at the enemies left them in a daze.

"W-What about the other three walls?" Elton suddenly asked. "Do you have potions for them as well?"

"Yes, I do." Adam nodded. "I've been brewing these potions every day for the past two months. So I have plenty. You don't need to worry about them getting over."

This madman! Elton as well as the rest of the Magi thought in shock.

The next moment, the man snapped out of his daze and roared at the others. "What the hell are you waiting for?! Go burn those bastards to cinders! Burn them all!"

"OHHHH!!" The morale of the allied forces reached an unprecedented height.

The battle that seemed to be unwinnable just a few moments ago had now suddenly turned in their favor. The chests containing the potions were equally divided between the Magi stationed on the two walls.

Then, they started hurling these potions at the enemies like there was no tomorrow. Once again, the night sky was lit up as if dawn had arrived.

The Magi's eyes oozed with bloodlust and rage as they threw the explosion potions far and wide. They had suffered quite a lot from the surprise attack by their enemies, now it was their time to retaliate.

Meanwhile, Adam took out dozens of more chests from his earring and instructed the Magi near him to deliver the chests to the Magi stationed on the other three walls.

The youth called out to Elton all of a sudden and spoke with a serious expression, "There's something we need to be clear about."

Elton's eyes narrowed. Is he going to bring up the thing that happened in the marketplace with those kids? This… I thought he was mature, but I guess I overestimated him.

"What is it?"

"These potions," Adam began, "are not for free…"

"Eh?" Elton was dumbfounded. "W-What are you talking about?"

Adam barked like he had been possessed by a mad dog, "What?! Don't pretend like you don't know! Do you have any idea how much time and effort I put into brewing them? I want 15 contribution points for every damn vial, you hear me? 15 contribution points!"

Elton was speechless.

He glanced at the youth's serious expression and thought to himself in a daze, He's still thinking about making money?

"What's there to think about?!" Adam growled, jolting Elton out of his stupor. "15 contribution points! You better tell this to Magus Marcella. This is non-negotiable. I mean, I'll accept more, but definitely not less!"

"S-Sure…"Elton's lips twitched as he nodded. It's not like he could refuse.

"Good." Adam nodded. "What's the situation of the enemies within the city?"

Elton's expression turned solemn as he replied, "They are still out there wreaking havoc. But now that the gates and walls have been repaired, we can afford to send more Magi to deal with the enemies inside."

Adam nodded ever so slightly. "Make sure the majority of the Magi are stationed at all the walls, dealing with the enemies trying to get in. As for the rest of our forces, have half of them take care of the enemies inside the city, and the other half provide aerial support."

"That is a sound judgment," Elton replied, his back straightening involuntarily.

"Alright then, I will recover my mana and join the battle as soon as I can," the youth stated before dismissing Elton.

Elton nodded with a grim expression before turning around and delegating duties to the rest of the Magi. Suddenly, he stopped in his footsteps, realizing something very peculiar.

Why am I taking orders from a twenty-year-old?

He didn't realize this before but Adam's presence was like that of a seasoned veteran, causing him to involuntarily feel that it was only right to take orders from him.

Elton turned back around and glanced at Adam who had now entered a state of mindfulness. Despite the chaos around him, the youth was completely detached to it all as if none of it bothered him.

What a strange young man…
