Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman - Chapter 418

Three days have passed and the Second Offensive operation has finally begun…

Right now, the main forces of Zairus, Maja, and Virgan have arrived in an abandoned town, now turned into their headquarters, to fight the remaining aliens near the mines at Stella Region.

The army of Zairus is composed of 15,000 Magicians… They are at the level of Combat Mage, Battle Mage, Adept Mage, and a few Sages.

About a thousand of them were magicians at Engineer’s Path… They are the Magic Engineers and Arcane Artificers that would act as support of the front line magicians…

Aside from that, they have 1 Transatmospheric Battleship, 50 Airships, 300 Steel Knights, and 20 Iron Knights on their side.

This is already the combined forces of all the powerful clans and organizations in Zairus.

Of course, Wallace’s forces are not included in this count.

“Only fifteen thousand, huh… We’re still short.”

“It doesn’t matter… We still have to let the others defend our borders and our key cities… This should be enough.”

Aaron and Troy were both inside the Blaze Battleship observing the situation below. They then looked at the other countries’ forces who have just arrived in their land.

The Republic of Maja brought 20 Airships filled with 1,000 Battle Mages and 100 Adepts.

Their numbers are small but their automatons about 8,000 in number… As expected of the country that put most of their budget to Automaton Factories, they seem to be capable of making 200 to 300 of them per day!

Of course, each of these Automatons was expensive, so they also didn’t want them to be destroyed as much as possible in this war.

“Hmmm… Their general is only at the level of Sage… It seems that these forces they’ve sent were actually expendables.”

Troy muttered after seeing the forces from Maja. If they are truly valuing these magicians and automatons, they should’ve at least brought one of their Grand Sages or Grand Arcanists…

This way, they would be able to have a chance to refuse in case they were ordered to do some life-threatening actions.

Anyway, it’s not his position to tell them that so he just let them be…

Finally, the forces from the other neighboring country, Virgan, were actually quite strong…

They didn’t bring a single airship and only send 3,000 Battle Mages, 500 Adepts Mages, 5 Sages, and a single Grand Sage.

However, what’s impressive with these magicians are their Mana Artifacts…All of them are at the highest grade possible. Troy even heard that they can perform massive combination attacks that require 100 Magician’s Mana in a single attack.

This is something that their army is lacking… Most of their forces’ mana spells were for a single target or for a single user.

They do not have Mana Spells that can be used by a group of magicians to amplify its powers…

Except to the clans and organizations who were planning to reveal their Forbidden Mana Spells, Forbidden Mana Artifacts, and Forbidden Secret Arts today…

At this moment, the Cleansing mission to destroy the headquarters of the Seiji Alliance should also be starting by now.

“It looks like we can now begin… Have you seen Karfu?”

Troy asked after seeing that everything is ready.

“Yes… His team should be heading towards their assigned task… I’m not exactly sure if that Mind Stone is effective but we’ll see…” Aaron muttered as left the room.

This Blaze Battleship will be heavily targeted later on and it has a high chance of being taken down… The leaders and other important individuals shouldn’t stay here during the war.

It is too huge and it will be an easy target for the aliens.

“Our concern now is those Terubs that might decide to help them…”

Troy said following behind Aaron.

They have a high chance of eliminating the aliens in this region or at least, force them to retreat like what happened in Montego.

But based on Avalon’s report, they do not have any magician that could fight one of them at all!

This is something that they would never believe if they didn’t know what happened a few days ago to Wallace.

Nevertheless, they couldn’t attack without a plan…

For now, they have decided to let the 10 strongest magicians they have to deal with it in case one of them would truly come…

They might die in the process but their sacrifices wouldn’t be in vain if they managed to kill most of the aliens in the region.

Ross Schien took a deep breath as he visualizes his team’s operation later on… He is currently in the cockpit of his Mech and waiting for the mission to start.

Currently, his golden mech together with 20 more Lucent Knights would be in the most dangerous position in aerial battle.

He could die any second once the war started.

He only has a small unit with him as their task wasn’t just to fight the enemy Mech Frames that will be sent out but to also try their new Mana Artifacts.

These Artifacts were just recently created so only their small team can equip them as only a few of them were made as of yet.

Apparently, in the few days that they were at peace, a team of Soul Arts Practitioners managed to create a Mana Artifact to defend against the Khrusam’s Death Energy!

Aside from that, that same team modified the Corpse Furnace that they’ve collected from the previous battle and made some Cryptic Mages use them for this war!

‘Haa~ It’s impressive how they managed to create it in such a short time… However, I hope it will be effective or my team would sacrifice in vain..’

The young man thought as his team’s mission is to protect the airship of the Cryptic Mages that will control the modified Corpse Furnace!

Their new Mana Artifacts together with the Mages’ Corpse Furnace… they are hoping that they could surprise the enemies and create an opening for the other magicians.

It is such an ambitious mission but they can only trust the best Soul Art Practitioners of their country.

Time quickly passed as Ross heard the signal to start the operation…

[ Second Offensive Operation will begin in 30 seconds. ]

He then saw the countdown timer starting as all the Mech Knights docked in Blaze Battleship activated their engines…
