Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman - Chapter 461

“Oh… So these cores are larger than the previous ones. Too bad there’s not enough time to put them into use.”

Ace muttered after seeing the Space Beasts’ cores being transported by an Airship. He didn’t think too much of it when it was taken out of the beast but seeing it being carried carefully by a couple of Magicians made him compare it from the other cores.

The core is actually about three times the size of an adult’s head! Its enormous size is truly incredible. Those engineers working for this would definitely be surprised at its sheer size.

They are now headed to one of the floating islands where the best Arcane Artificers of the country are currently waiting.

Their task is to make an array or a device that can effectively utilize its energy. The task is extremely difficult but Ace believes that with their extensive knowledge and help from Veda and Avalon, it shouldn’t take them that long to research this.

“Well, maybe if Julian Esmeria is alive, we could easily make use of it.”

Grand Arcanist Aura said after hearing Ace. Julian Esmeria is the Royal Court Magician of Montego.

Unfortunately, his whereabouts are currently filled with mystery. It was first reported that he was dead but clues discovered by Avalon’s Investigators show that the old man should still be alive.

Anyway, that old man is also the only one who has the original method of creating a Mage Tower that uses incredible kinds of array to utilize the world’s mana.

With his knowledge, he should also be capable of helping them with the Space Beast Core. It is indeed too bad that they couldn’t borrow his knowledge right now.

“Well, let’s leave it at that. Wallace and his forces should be arriving by now.” Ace announced to everyone.

The soldiers including the Grand Sages and powerful individuals here sighed in relief after hearing the man’s arrival.

Wallace’s influence is truly on a different level.

He wasn’t just a powerful Magic Engineer but a great leader in their minds. After all, none of them would be even aware that aliens are coming to invade them without his help.

“Don’t worry, we have already called all the scattered forces to gather at the abandoned Cove City.”

“That’s right. The Lucent Force, the Seven Clans, the Four Manors, the joint forces of Virgan and Maja, the remaining 12 Battalion of Mages, including the Z Company would be gathering here.”

Grand Sage Maze said as she approached Ace. They are all outside waiting for everyone’s arrival.

“Wait, the Z Company? Did I hear it correctly?” Ace raised his brows and asked in confusion.

“Yes, they have many powerful magicians. One of them is Chalice. It seems that he has gotten a lot stronger compared to the last time I met him.”

Maze answered and the look on her face appears like she was trying to recall her previous lover!

As far as Ace could recall, Chalice is the name of the powerful magician that was previously guarding his spaceship somewhere in Montego!

The last time he heard about the man was when he sent the stuff like Laser Gun, Daggers, part of the Bio Armor, and other information about the spaceship to the Zairus’ Magician Congress.

It seems that after he did this, he had actually trained really hard to get the Grand Sage’s praise. And there seems to be a story about the two!

Ace could only nod for now as he wasn’t in the mood to pry too much about their story.

In the meantime, he secretly communicated with Avalon to find out more about Julian Esmeria’s situation.

“Avalon… Do your best to find that old man…” Ace said as he continued giving instructions.

The Elysium Investigators that Avalon had sent must do everything they could to try and save the man or perhaps confirm his death if that was really the case.

[ Affirmative. Switching the priority task of the five Investigators in the region. ]

“Good…”

As soon as he finished talking with the A.I., he noticed that the Grand Sage was looking in the eastern direction.

He decided to take a look as well to find out what was going on, however, he didn’t find anything until Avalon reported what’s happening.

Beep!

[ The Airships including the Trance Battleship of Lucent Force are arriving. ]

[ The other remaining forces scattered around the Kingdom are also about to arrive. ]

Ace smiled after hearing the A.I.’s report. Once their forces are gathered, even if the Empire decided to attack them in full force, they would surely be able to intensely fight back. Especially now that most of the magicians have now fully understood their enemy’s fighting method.

‘We have all the forces here… but… Should I ask for reinforcement from the Moon Base?’

Ace pondered as he wanted to create a “Plan B” just in case something went wrong in their calculations.

Right now, the Moon Base has been silently building Spaceships in their only Shipyard.

“Avalon… How many Mid-Size Transatmospheric Battleship has been made in the Moon Base by now?”

[ Three Unnamed Mid-Size Battleships. They also have 20 Small-Size Battleships ready. ]

“Hmm… It might take quite a while but can you launch them just in case we need their help?”

[ It’s possible. However, The Battleships has to be manned by several magicians. ]

“That’s fine. There’s nothing to worry about any external enemies at this point anyway. Just send anyone who can assist you.”

[ Affirmative. ]

Avalon replied and immediately contacted Escanor in the Moon Base who is currently enjoying his meal.

Ace now felt satisfied and couldn’t think of anything that he could’ve missed for this last battle.

“Wait… About the people that are in the shelter and the floating island, I assume that there are still enough guards protecting them, right?”

[ Of course. The security force of the shelters is currently under the command of Reguc, one of the remaining Arians. They are the ones who have extensive knowledge of advanced equipment so they are now assigned with the job. ]

“I see… That’s good to hear then.”

Ace was glad that this minor race can still be useful. Apparently, their forces have collected hundreds, if not thousands, of advanced weapons from the Imperial Army. These things aren’t that easy to operate so most of them are just being stored away.

After all, the magicians even the automatons are using their Mana Spells in battle.

The advanced tech weapons they looted aren’t being used so in the end, these Arians decided to put them into use in several guarding missions.

As Ace is watching the groups of Magicians, Airships, Battleships, and several trucks carrying various things arrive in the city, he suddenly heard the A.I. about another group of people that are coming.

Beep!

[ Wallace and the Celestial Being including a group of Mech Knights are also about to arrive. ]
