Chapter 422 - Returning (2/2)

”This is going well… However, the Terubs and most of the Khrusams aren't making their move yet…”

Ace touched his chin as he commented on the current state of war. It looks like they are at advantage but he knows that the aliens still have a lot more to offer.

”Hmm?”

Avalon suddenly highlighted the attacks made by the Cryptic Mages against the Khrusams that are moving in the mining site's direction…

”They used the Corpse Furnace!”

The young man saw that black energy appearing from the furnace. They were used by the Cryptics and not the Khrusams!  The energy successfully targeted the Khrusams including the marauder gears behind them… They must've been surprised by that!

At first, he was a bit worried that the aliens would be able to control the Death Energy they have released but it appears that they couldn't freely do so.

”Incredible… I wonder how Miya and the others did it.”

Ace mused after seeing its effectivity.

These Aliens were supposedly sent to Earth to raise awareness to people and make them Veda's experiment… Ace didn't think too far ahead about the ȧssistance they could provide in this war.

However, it just happened that the things they've collected from Omen were still quite useful.

They still have plenty of mind stones with them and they can finally be put to use. Ace didn't care whether they would be all consumed in this war since this thing shouldn't really exist on this planet.

He ordered them to use the stones as they see fit as long as they could fight the aliens.

”Avalon… I want to see the effectiveness of the Mind Stones against the Imperial Soldiers. Focus on them.”

[ Affirmative. ]

The A.I. has been switching the highlighted video based on what it deemed to be a crucial part of this war.

Finally, Ace saw the group of armored Arians. They are wearing their space combat suit as it helps them filter the surrounding mana.

Apparently, though they managed to get help from Veda to get used to the surrounding mana, they still have to lessen the intensity of it.

It is perhaps similar to the Imperial Soldiers that's why they can't remove their armors yet.

Ace then saw a wand or perhaps staff being pulled out by the Arians. He can easily see an embedded Mind Stone at the tip of the weapon…

They were able to get near to the spaceships thanks to the luring that the army has done for them.

”This…”

As soon as the Mind Stones were activated by the Arians, it created a blinding light in the surrounding area. The light doesn't appear to be harmful but anyone who could see that light seems to create a simple effect of hypnosis…

Even Ace, who's only watching from afar felt a bit of this though he managed to quickly wake up from it…

”Mind Stone… Just what kind of power is this?” Ace felt a little lost.

It seems that he really has to remove all kinds of alien things after this war. The secret of mana is already enough for this world.

Ace smiled wryly as he looked at his window… His spaceship is still on its track and on its way to Earth and it will probably take a day before could reach its orbit.
