Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 682

Chapter 682 - Crazy Plan

At that moment, Asabanor looked more like a vague image without any material form. Of course, that was just like the information that they had. After returning from the Final Lands, Asabanor was just in a spirit state. A spirit state could evade most forms of damage, but as long as the energy was strong enough, it could still cause damage to the creature.

So, Xiao Lin was still quite confident. He shielded everyone else, and prepared to block any attacks from his opponent as he observed Asabanor, waiting for a chance to kill his foe off in one blow. He believed that it would be possible if he used Ruin.

However, Asabanor did not attack immediately; the figure in the sky seemed to have expressions of contempt in his dim pupils and he rasped, “You’re right. With my current state, if I didn’t have elaborate preparations, I would not have dared to step into your territories. I have to admit, in these years, you’ve done well. Your growth has been even more shocking than I expected. Even if I had a material body right now, I might not be able to beat the best experts that you have.”

“If you’re afraid, then get lost!” Chen Dao immediately shouted excitedly in his usual candid manner.

Asabanor’s words did indeed have a sense of admitting defeat behind them, but Xiao Lin was still on alert. He understood Asabanor more than the rest of them. He was someone who would not give up no matter what. Asabanor’s words caused the worries in his mind to become even clearer.

Asabanor’s voice was still spreading. It was obvious that Asabanor did not plan on attacking them here. Other than defending, he did not seem to have any intentions of fighting, yet his words seemed to mock them even more. “If I can’t beat you, then I just have to leave. So, I invited you over today just to say goodbye to all of you.”

“Xiao Lin, no! That! That is!” Gu Xiaoyue suddenly shouted out in shock. Her voice was in great disbelief.

Xiao Lin immediately retreated a few steps, and after looking back, he noticed that the usually calm Gu Xiaoyue was losing all her composure. She stared at the blood moon in the sky, her eyes full of shock as her body trembled slightly. It was the first time Xiao Lin had ever seen that woman look so shocked.

Not needing the others to ask, Gu Xiaoyue’s shaky hand pointed up at the moon in the sky as she continued to shout in horror, “That… That’s Earth! It’s our Earth!”

Following the direction Gu Xiaoyue was pointing, everyone looked up again. Everyone had noticed the three dots on the blood moon, but no one had realized what it was, and they probably had felt that it was just a ploy by Asabanor.

Yet, when they looked again, Xiao Lin noticed as well that the three points had started to rapidly expand. The blue dot did look more and more like Earth, and that small, lightless orb looked like the Earth’s moon. As for that burning orb… Was that not the Sun?

While the others were still in a state of shock, the others were the first to react. He realized where the unsettling feeling on his mind had come from.

Asabanor was clearly preparing to bring the flames of war to Earth!

It was a ruthless means of revenge. That man did not just have a strong will for revenge. He also had an insane and intelligent mind. Since he could not defeat the colonists in the New World, then he would just attack right at the roots. Even though Asabanor did not know anything about the history and background of the colonists when his kingdom had fallen, as an astrologian, after his fervent recent efforts, he had definitely learned a lot more.

For instance, Asabanor had found their homeworld, which was Earth. He knew that not everyone on Earth had the abnormal abilities that the colonists had. Most of the people on Earth had bodies that were easily destroyed, so attacking Earth became a real possibility.

It was an unbelievable and crazy plan, but Xiao Lin still found it hard to believe. Song Junlang had talked to him at length about the New World’s astronomical location. Even Dawn Academy’s Earth Division’s observatory did not hide it, but in recent years, the observatory had tried to find the New World in the universe.

That task was something almost every academy was doing, even though most of them did not hold out much hope for it. However, after a long time, they did get some clues. Of course, it was a secret, but with Song Junlang’s connections, that fact did not matter at all.

Actually, the answer was meaningless, because the planet that the New World was on was extremely far away from Earth. Song Junlang did not say how far, but he had described the distance as insane. It would need them to cross dozens of solar systems just to get there. So, unless they used some special wormholes, it was impossible to cross between the two planets.

Yet, Asabanor had managed to do it, and in Xiao Lin’s shock, he was still suspicious. No matter how crazy that man was, it was not something just one person could do when the collective efforts of so many academies could not do so after so many years of research.

The three dots in the blood moon that represented Earth, the moon, and the Sun were slowly moving. When they completely turned into a straight line, a shocking amount of energy shot out, and the ground started to shake, as if it were a grade-twelve earthquake. Even though Gu Xiaoyue had quickly cast support spells to help everyone maintain their balance, it could still not completely prevent the effects.

“That’s a ripple in space.” Gu Xiaoyue quickly reacted. Her tired face had an expression of heartache. Spatial magics were above her abilities.

“If Asabanor wants to return to Earth, why does he need us?” Chen Dao said anxiously. The others had those questions in their minds as well. Everyone had already understood the meaning behind Asabanor’s words earlier, but they still did not understand what it had to do with a few first-year students like themselves.

Asabanor did not leave them in confusion for that long. With the increase in the shaking, he was still slowly floating in space, coldly laughing to the displeasure of everyone. “You are the last part of my plan. It’s just a pity that constructing a wormhole is far more difficult than I thought. I really have to thank you, as if it wasn’t for all of you, the passage might never have been made! Hahaha!”

Xiao Lin’s heart slowly sank alongside that crazed laughter. Those words had contained too much information, and had completely shattered the doubts that he had.
