\”I suggest that we retain those automatons in their places and make them as a bait. If we captured even one of the members of that group. It will lead us to their queen.\” Zach replied confidently. The black miasma says it all. If they hadn't identified that, they will not make a fuss about this single incident thinking that it would not happen again. But they all know what the Sealed Mana Artifact - Hallowed Eye can do.

\”That's too risky. You know how expensive those materials are.\” One of the older director said just to object.

\”We can only sacrifice. Even if it was stolen successfully, we still have a chance to get it back. Its better than being vaporized by that house.\”

\”Urgh...\”

They couldn't argue with that.

\”Dad!\”

\”Oh! Claire! You've grown up! I've only been away for a couple of weeks!\” Chase said as he placed his hand on top of Clarice's head. He was also carrying a bag on the other.

\”Haha! That's Clarice dad! I'm Claire.\” Claire chimed in after hearing her father. She immediately ran to her father asking to be hug or probably carried.

Clarice laughed as she also hugged her father as she truly missed him. After all, it was because of her father that she decided to serve in the military.

\”Oh... is that souvenir?\”

Wallace on the other hand, focused on what his father has brought from his work place. He stopped seeping his tea as he asked to open the paper bag.

He already sensed that the bag contains a memory crystal but after opening it up, he noticed that it was a blank or empty memory crystals.

It was easy to identify whether a memory crystal was empty or filled. There would just be some changes in the density of color.

Right now, the memory crystal was almost transparent with a small amount of pale blue color. If there's a content, the blue color will gradually turn rich depending on the content.

\”Ah.. That's just a gift from the company leaders. After all we're creating a very innovative project right now.\”  Chase said referring to the 10 empty memory crystals. It was already very difficult to chance upon a memory crystal. Although only the magicians that have learned the Arcane Link could transfer information to memory crystals, the demand was still high. After all, memory crystals helps a lot in nurturing the younger generation.

\”What project are you working on?\”

\”Err... Due to the disclosure policy, I couldn't really say. But I can tell you that it would cause massive changes especially to the large clans or organizations once we've completed it.\”

\”Ohh... That's sounds interesting.\”

\”It really is. Anyway, once the project was a success. The product would also be available to the public.\”

\”That's generous. When can your group finish it?\”

\”Probably a week or two more. We have several prominent figures in the field working on the same project. It's really amazing just seeing those individuals gather to work in a single project.\”

\”Then you're also not so simple since you could join them… Right, dad?\” Clarice said proudly as she went to assist her mother cooking their dinner.

\”Haha.. Of course...\” Chase replied to his daughter.

Elaine had only watched everything as she warmly smiles at her complete and happy family. It has been a while ever since they gathered like this.

On the fifth night of Wallace's stay at the Red Star Town, he had received the update about the burglars. They were members of a syndicate that was connected to Z-Company, The Silent Enigmas.

Officer Ray had also made some update about his security system. It was all repaired and they even provided some upgrades at no cost.

The video they captured was clearly telling that they were targeting the core materials of the automatons.

The Golden Trident Group didn't denied the claim and instead acknowledged it telling that because their automatons was very amazing, there were people targeting their core so other competitors would benefit.

But Wallace knows the truth even without being told. He had already sensed the peculiarity of those cores before. He knows that it was a very valuable material.

It seems that the security company still wanted to hide the fact that they were using an overqualified material as a core of an average automatons.

\”Sigh... That's not my problem anymore. Although I really like to stay here, I couldn't start making my projects with my family here.. Anyway, I should start with my fabricator...\”
