303 Avalons Burden (1/2)
During this month, the Moon Base has been completed and was now in a livable condition.
Aside from the military base, the shipyard, and docked spaceships, one could see a huge dome where a large number of people could reside in the future. There were even trees, fountains, and entertainment halls that can be found.
Ace tried to make it look as comfortable as it could.
Since he wanted to continuously build a large number of spaceships, the people's access to the outer space would also become easier as time flies.
After all, he wanted to share the beauty of outer space to the natives of this planet. He expected that it will happen very soon.
Aside from that, he wanted a place where the people he enticed to fight against the Empire could relax and enjoy. It was a small way for Ace to take care of their mentality. He was fully aware of many sicknesses, issues, or anxieties that could result in people who had first arrived in outer space.
He had to avoid that from happening. Although mana practitioners have a strong mentality, the environment in outer space would be completely different. The artificial gravity wouldn't help a lot in this case.
Anyway, Ace was now supervising the creation of another spacecraft that would be powered by an Aether Force and Mana simultaneously.
It was a project that he didn't think he would have to do since he deemed that the acquisition of Aether Force was a lost cause.
”Probably a month more to complete the spacecraft...”
Ace muttered after checking Avalon's progress. Because of the environment that they were in, he couldn't increase the number of automatons working on the spacecraft, or the other projects would slow down.
At the moment, Avalon was already controlling 890 automatons that were working both in the land and in space. Increasing their numbers would greatly affect Avalon's processing speed so Ace would have to utilize these automatons effectively.
Aside from automatons, Avalon was also controlling all the systems of Ace's spaceships, the Ravencroft Printers, and it was even constantly coordinating with the companies associated with Traceless Hands.
That's right, the supply of steels, or enchanted steels and other materials he needed for his big projects had never stopped.
Lastly, Avalon was also managing the Virtual World!
Although the Alien Invasion was already a completed project, Avalon had never stopped to monitor and balance the game if necessary. After all, they could never guess all the player's thought processes so it can only guide them at times so they wouldn't be stray afar from Ace's ambition.
”Avalon, report to me if there are any problems with the building process of this spacecraft... There might be something that we miss...”
[ Affirmative. ]
The design planning of this spacecraft took two weeks to be completed even with Avalon's help. One could just imagine how difficult and groundbreaking the technology included in this project.
Apparently, Ace had thought of many scenarios when the Empire's forces have arrived, and all of it requires a powerful force or strength to deal heavy damage to them.
He was expecting his forces to be small compared to the Empire and the only way to win is to destroy the enemy's flagship in a surprise attack. An attack that no one would expect would always be lethal. So he had to come up with a way to accomplish this.
That was why Ace decided to create this new spaceship as quickly as possible. Mounted in this vessel was a new type of cannon that could harness the Aether Force and Mana!
The lethality of the forces combine would be on a different level.
The AF was never used as ammunition for an attack because it is very valuable energy. It is very expensive that most minor races were still not capable of using them in all of their combat spaceships and were still using nuclear energy...
However, Ace probably had an unlimited source of mana with him and although he has Aether Force right now, that amount was still limited and there was no way to resupply them after using them up.
That was why he decided to use it as ammunition for his new cannons.
