Magical Engineering

Chapter 218: The Siren’s Final Call



As I charged the creature, I felt it probe my mind again, and again it failed to get a grip. It felt like oily fingers trying to reach deep behind my eyes and being forced back out. There was a pain, but I could ignore that. I had no idea what was keeping it off me this time, as Connie’s music hadn’t started yet, but whatever it was was working, and I was thankful for it.

Fireball after fireball left my body while I internally debated how the hell we were going to actually win this fight. I needed more of a plan than the orders that had been thrown together last second. That meant pulling up a chat window, distraction or not, while I tried to keep my attention on staying alive. I sent the first message as I knocked a black tendril off my shield.

Dave: I want you all focused on keeping shields around everyone on our side within the thing’s range. We will use the feedback loop to fuel our spells as fast as we can. Understand?

Beta: For the Empire!

Gamma: Yes. New fighters are approaching, and we will handle shielding them. Burn the excess mana as fast as you can. It is starting to unleash those smaller pieces of itself again as it did on the highway.

Dave: Corey, it might be best to let Gamma handle most of the fighting coordination here. They have the experience.

Corey: Understood. Gamma, you will be in charge of the forces. I will handle the core and socket cycling. Apollyon, I want you to focus on keeping the energy away from the city. I believe it was draining the dungeon energy, so we need to keep its supply shut off.

Apollyon: Do you want me to continue to shield your mind?

Dave: That was you? Thank you, and yes, keep doing that.

Apollyon: Of course, only I will be the one allowed to kill you.
