Chapter 461 - The Third Great Offensive ( 1 ) (1/2)
”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 ȧduŀt'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. ] ;
