Am I imagining it? He seems and feels like a primordial-ranked beast on his own,’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devan mused inwardly, his gaze drifting to the silent, massive mount beneath him. It wore a heavy collar around its neck that pulsated continuously with an eerie light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’... Luckily, I managed to secure this artifact before the Midnight Sun Clan was eradicated. A tool specifically designed to control and tame such creatures. I wonder who even eliminated that clan? They were incredibly powerful and helpful allies to have.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His wandering gaze shifted to see Rivock detonating the ranks of his infantry like they were straw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Rivock was a stage-seven warrior, he was able to rip through the average soldier with ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The majority of the Behemoth Clan was composed of stage three, four, and five warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the stage-five combatants were not as numerous, Rivock hadn’t even encountered them yet. But Devan knew that if Rivock were to cross paths with them now, they would be toast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes drifted downward to the thousand men still standing directly around his mount.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the elite stage-five and stage-six warriors of the clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood before him like an impenetrable fortress, watching the battle unfold while the stage two, three, and four warriors were pushed back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out of five hundred thousand men, only this thousand represented the true peak of the clan’s standing strength, and they remained with their leader for the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it me, or is that monster heading straight for us?\" Oscroch questioned, pointing a finger toward Thalos, who was still striding forward with terrifying purpose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ortiz smirked, his eyes narrowing in anticipation. \"It seems he wants to challenge us alone.

We can do this. We can do this,’ Alba thought, her heart racing as she reset her stance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter how much he chanted, worry filled his heart at the insurmountable number of enemies rushing toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This force was large enough to populate a small city, and now, they were descending upon them in a wave of steel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How had the Behemoth Clan managed to recruit so many warriors over the years?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>___\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killian was out front, double swords in hand as he moved like a phantom—like death incarnate itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deflecting a blow to the side, he swung his head forward, bashing it into the skull of his opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp grin appeared on Killian’s face as he twisted behind the disoriented man, using the enemy’s body as a shield while a barrage of arrows intended for him struck the warrior instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grabbing the man’s abdomen, Killian burst forward with full speed, utilizing the adversary as a living battering ram.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bulldozed through several fighters before taking half a step backward; his hand shot up, catching his sword as he delivered a final, decisive strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the chaos, he could see hundreds of angry eyes staring him down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His crimson sword vibrated in his grip, and he wasted no time in swinging the blade, producing a fiery slash that scorched through the front line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twisting on his heels, he intercepted a blow that had been streaking toward his head from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attacker glared at him, trying to push forward, but no matter how much strength the man exerted, he was unable to move Killian an inch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deflecting the strike to the side, Killian delivered a hard knee to the man’s midsection, causing him to crumple to the ground in agony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flinging one sword to the side, the weapon flew through the air with immense velocity, striking an enemy who had been charging toward him and stopping the man instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The warrior halted, and Killian calmly walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes scanned the surroundings, watching as even more men began lunging toward his position.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached the fallen opponent just as the man was about to collapse face-first, and Killian yanked his sword back into his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a powerful upward swing, he cleared the space before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crimson erupted into the air like a fountain as the body swayed for a second before crashing into the dirt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flicking his wrist, the blood on his sword splattered onto the parched ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a sharp exhale, he turned around to face the next wave of soldiers closing in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking in a deep breath, he beamed like a lunatic, his adrenaline reaching its peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I might die, but I’m glad it will be on the battlefield... so let’s GOOOO!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG—!\u003C\u002Fp>",1118,"2026-06-05T15:21:43.521Z",1,"novelbin.me","e5984569ecf7b8c63c0db5372de982862be3919efc55e186f8ed27bb401677ab","magus-supremacy-chapter-975","magus-supremacy-chapter-973",1068,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmagus-supremacy-cover.jpg"]
