Chapter 373 - Defense (2/2)

”A strange energy?”

”It's not a mana?”

”Perhaps the Mana Calamity?”

”That's possible… But why would they look for that?”

Everyone has a guess but Avalon dismissed them.

[ It is most likely similar to the energy coming from the Memory Crystal. The site where the spaceship landed in Montego has Memory Crystal Mines a kilometer away from them. As for the site in the state of Kazan, we are still investigating since we lack records on that country. ]

'If that's true, then there's a possibility that they will also descend in Stella Region.'

This is what everyone thought. The Stella Region is the only place in their country that has a mine for Memory Crystals. The Seed Holdings is the one currently supervising the mining project of such precious material.

”Thank you Avalon for all of this information. In case you're still keeping something from us, please tell them now.”

Charles said as he smiled wryly. If they aren't asking the A.I., it wouldn't give them such information aside from the basic ones they needed.

In the end, Avalon no longer has anything to say.

The A.I. just reminded them that Wallace would still be dealing with Seiji and the Aliens from afar. After all, it would be disastrous if Seiji also decided to launch their attack on the allied countries of Zairus.

”I think that we should send our reinforcements to Montego now… The other countries may be sending them now as we speak.”

After Avalon left their meeting, Troy continued with his suggestion to send a unit of Lucent Force to help them fight the aliens…

The man felt that even if an alien spaceship descends without the Lucent Force's spaceship, they will be able to defend it until it returns.

After all, not only do they have Wallace's support, they also have various Steel Knights, Iron Knights, the Grand Sages, Grand Arcanists, and incredibly powerful 6th Generation Mana Artifacts being used by their elite magicians.

It means that they have enough power to avoid getting easily defeated by these aliens.

After a couple more minutes of discussions, they decided to send their elites to Montego while sending most of their reserve forces to Stella Region…

This way, they will be able to quickly respond if ever the aliens decided to descend here just like what Avalon suggested.

***

Julian coordinated with all the controllers and confirmed that they fired Mana Bombs and Disruption Wave to the descending spacecraft…

The two Mana Spells lack penetrative force but it doesn't matter… The spells were meant to attack all the personnel inside the spaceship.

This is what they learned as an effective approach against the aliens from watching Wallace's battles in outer space before.

They learned about the incredibly powerful defense of the alien spacesh.i.p.s so they wanted to fight them differently. By using Mana Spells that can ignore physical defense, they wanted to take down as many aliens as they can while they are still inside the spaceship.

”How was the damage dealt?”

”We are still unable to tell, Sir Julian. However, we can confirm that no external problems are showing at this point… They're really as tough as we thought they were.”

”Mhmm… That's expected. The environment in outer space is harsh for the spacecraft… Celestial bodies might just collide unto you if you're not paying attention.”

Julian said this as he felt that physical Attacks may not be as effective as they were.  Nevertheless, he knows that the Mage Towers who launched their attacks haven't used their full power yet.

”Don't let it control the pace… Continue with the bombardment… The magicians will soon arrive.”

He is referring to the top magicians of Montego… They are hurrying to this place as they speak to provide support.

He knows that his country is powerful and they just need to have a very good network of communication…

”It seems like mana spells that ignore physical defense is very effective. We'll switch on using that for now.”

”Yes, Sir Julian…”

As Julian was giving orders to everyone, he was notified about the plans of their allied countries to aid them.

He's thankful for them but he felt that they would still take a lot of time before they arrive. Perhaps, they have already overpowered this spaceship once the forces from Zairus and the others have landed in the country.
