Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman - Chapter 457
Hilda and the rest of her team finally arrived near the Empire’s camp at Seiji.
This time, there are two Invader Spaceships docked not too far from the Crystal Mine and they immediately noticed hundreds of Mech Frames guarding the area.
As a matter of fact, they could see thousands of flying vehicles called Marauder Gears and they seem to be busy transporting something from the mines to another camp.
Hilda helplessly sighed after seeing this.
“This is too much… Even the current main force of the Zairus would have trouble dealing with this number.” She muttered.
There’s a huge difference in their numbers! They haven’t even counted the Imperial Soldiers and the Khrusams that are scattered everywhere!
It appears that these aliens are no longer being affected by Mana Suffocation thanks to whatever they are doing to the Memory Crystals.
“Avalon… Where’s Sir Wallace now?”
[ They would be arriving here in at least five more minutes. ]
“That’s quick? They already dealt with the aliens occupying Kazan?”
[ The main camp in that country has been destroyed with barely any survivors. ]
“Amazing… They really finished them off so quickly. However, they must’ve exerted most of their energy or mana. They should take a rest first instead of heading to another camp, right? Don’t you think this is too dangerous, Avalon?”
Hilda worriedly asked. She knows that although Wallace and the Celestial Being are powerful, she had seen them struggling fighting under the sea. They’ve been trapped there for weeks or months and couldn’t get away until they have completely grasped the enemy’s weakness.
They did manage to get out of there with barely any help but it took them quite a long time still.
[ There is nothing to worry about. They are constantly regenerating their used mana while breathing. They both have a different physique from normal magicians. ]
Avalon answered referring to their Core… The Magicians would have an Adept Link to connect with the world’s mana while the two have modified Astral Core and perfect Astral Core that is inhibiting within their bodies.
“I guess I’m worrying for nothing… I hope I can see them in action then.” Hilda smirked after realizing that those two seem to be more powerful than she thought at first.
She would probably give up disturbing this camp if there’s only her group dealing with them. However, since Wallace will join them, they would definitely have a better chance to win this.
“Avalon… Give me the topography and the exact positions of the aliens. I want to at least grasp the whole situation and create a plan.”
[ Of course. ]
The A.I. then assisted Hilda to make plans. They are currently hiding in a forest away from the Empire’s scanner.
Thud! Thud!
As the Mech Pilots were observing the empire’s forces through Avalon’s surveillance system, they noticed two figures appearing in their midst as if they have teleported.
“Everyone… Are you ready?” Wallace asked using their intercom. None of them could see his face since he’s wearing his black bio-armor. He looks like a small Imperial Soldier with his current attire.
“Wallace! You’re here. We’ve been waiting.”
“Leader… Just tell us what you need us to do! We’re even planning on creating a powerful magic array while we’re waiting. The number of enemies outside reaches more than five thousand… We can assume that there are others that are still inside those spaceships. We have to be careful.”
“That’s true. I think that bombarding them with our current Mana Spells isn’t enough. We have enough references or experience that they are not effective.”
“Only Forbidden magic works extremely well if I’m not mistaken.”
Wallace heard their concerns as soon as he arrived. Their worries are all valid considering how many failed attempts they had in previous skirmishes.
“That’s alright. We won’t need a large array. I already thought of a plan to destroy the spaceships. I will first try it out to see if it works.”
“Oh? So you already have a plan? We’ll wait then, leader.”
“Alright, we’ll act according to your instructions…” Hilda said as she let Wallace explain their plan.
Soon, their group moved out of the forest.
However, only Wallace and the Celestial will face the group of Aliens while the Mech Knights Division would be their backup in case their plan failed.
The Mech Knights will be in a formation to fully utilize their Radiant Wave Tech to protect each other and also eliminate their enemies faster.
***
Wallace looked at the bustling camp of the Empire’s forces. They have settled themselves really well and he wouldn’t be surprised that they would be able to build an epic fortress in another month or so with how fast they are working.
Perhaps, if they are not prioritizing their mining and conversion of Memory Crystals, they would’ve definitely built a more powerful base filled with incredible weapons as their defenses.
However, right now, their camps were just hastily built walls of metals and could only be called a shelter.
Anyway, their living conditions are not important with the threat of Mana Suffocation coming at them.
“Sir Celestial, let’s try it now. I will guide your Divine Sense to its location.”
“Go ahead.”
The Celestial replied as they both activated their Divine Sense.
Apparently, their plan was simple. They wanted to trigger the Nuclear Energy stored within these spaceships and use it to their advantage.
Right now, because of the natural canceling effect of the mana on the planet, the Nuclear Energy they have could not be used. However, it is still existing within the spaceships.
As soon as these spaceships passed through the atmosphere made of Mana Calamity, their nuclear power has been canceled, and only their Aether Force can be used.
It has been like that ever since they’ve arrived.
On the other hand, their A.I. could not do anything about it since none of them knows the principle of Mana on this planet. They have probably considered that this is a natural phenomenon or a natural law of this world.
This is what Wallace wanted to do, to destroy their spaceships from the inside!
