Novel Full Chapter 214 - Connection
After Wallace satisfies Miya's request, she quickly left home and play the game at home. She and her manager even prepared a truck to bring the VR Pod away. It seems that they were already expecting that he will give them one. Anyway, this all happened in the morning. Right now, Wallace was carefully disassembling his Iron Knight since he was planning to utilize the reward he received from the Pathfinder before. It was the 10 pieces of Quantum Brainwaves Control System module. Each one of these can create a high-grade Mech Frame. First of all, why would all the Frames look like a human body? It was due to the requirement of having a high sync rate. If it was formed as an eagle, tiger, or alligator, the pilot can still operate it... but for its combat effectivity? It will be awful. If it fought against an enemy piloting a humanoid Mech Frame with a high sync rate, then the humanoid Mech can just toy around and still win the battle. The maximum potential of all Mech Frames can only be brought out by having a high sync rate. The 10 modules that Wallace has in his possession was the key to that. Even if it was the first time for a person to pilot a Mech Frame, it wouldn't be a problem because of this module. They will be able to perform the best of their ability even just by sitting on the pilot seat. Clang! Clang! Metals and other gears were being thrown all around the place as Wallace was looking for something. The Elysiums were only watching around as he instructed the Avalon that he'll take care of this and for the automatons to only assist him. "Where was it..." Wallace muttered as he was removing the parts of the Iron Knight around its chest. He wanted to make sure that he didn't forget all the knowledge he learned while he was still working on the Zymeth Spaceship before. "Found it!" It didn't take long before he found what he was looking for. It was covered by multiple layers of metal protection to avoid getting easily damaged. The core that he was looking at was still encased by metal and transparent glass. There were also several tubes attached where the energy coming from the core was passing through to provide energy to the whole Iron Knight. The design of the internal system of this Iron Knight has similarities with the Mech Frames he knows and some parts were only changed to adapt in this environment. After all, most Mech Frames that he was aware of were only used mostly for space combat. "So this is it, huh..." It was the unique core where the Molten Core of the Steel Knights were based on. He can see that it was shaped like an octagonal prism and it radiates a green light. Unfortunately, Wallace had to at least touch the core so he can use the ability of his Necklace of Clarity and learn its components. Of course, Wallace didn't dare touch the glowing core as he let the Avalon analyze the power that was being emitted. [ Analyzing energy emission... ] [ Unknown energy fusion... ] It took about 5 minutes before the A.I. managed to at least have a clue about this new power source. [ The power source was 76% similar to the blueprint recorded on the Captain's Logbook. It should be an incomplete project that the Prince wanted to accomplish before it was ruined by his failed human experimentation. It was a highly efficient fusion reactor called Zaimphail Reactor written on page 136 of the logbook. ] "Mhmm..." Wallace was already expecting this much. There was no way that the advanced technology and design like an Iron Knight would just suddenly appear in this world where not even an aircraft that could surpass the speed of sound was ever made unless it was brought or created by someone with advanced technology and resources. He continued his study and confirmed the there was indeed a safety limiter attach to the core as it suppresses the power it was emitting... After realizing this, he asked assistance with the A.I. to analyze everything and soon, he confirmed the releasing the limiter would also shorten the lifespan of the Iron Knight. It will slowly start to malfunction and thoroughly stopped working even if the limiter was only released once. But in exchange, it will give the pilot a short burst of power that could probably contend to even ten Iron Knights at once. During that night, Wallace used the layout and idea on the Iron Knight to create his own Mech Frame. *** It was already early in the morning. Wallace was now about to take a rest in his room as he took out the memory crystal that contains the Final Stage of the AOTL. He trusted that the modified memory crystal he was receiving from the Cloud Hawk Manor wasn't harmful, so he quickly consumed the crystal as he absorbed all the knowledge it contains... "Roar of Thundering Destruction..." After muttering the name of the Final Stage of the skill, he couldn't help but think of when will he finish learning this skill. It already took him about a month learning just the 2nd stage. But now, the last stage contains instructions and the difficulty even increased by ten times. "This is going to be tough..." Wallace said as he reviewed the training he had to do in order to learn this new skill. Aside from that, his master might be returning after some time and he had to show that he had also practiced his Spirit Forging Magic. It seems that the Manor wanted to have many people on their side that was capable of creating the Sixth Gen. As he finished absorbing the knowledge, Wallace heard a notification that he hadn't heard since he retrieved the GN Drive.

Wallace was glad that there was a mission to form his Astral Core. The Pathfinder might have thought that he'll spend all the remaining Aether Force in his other project.
'Rest assured, I didn't forget that I've chosen a path... But... Why would you give me a map of that place? Do you really want me to go there? For what?... Sigh~'
Wallace was already tired as he slept until the afternoon.
*** A couple of days had passed and the classes and jobs in the city started to operate as normal. The terrorist attack that previously threatened the city was now almost out of the mind of most people and only a small part was thinking of still leaving the city. It was due to the efforts of the City Mayor pacifying the nervous people as he dutifully works on his job to ensure their safety. The problem that was still remaining not only for the Mayor but also for the Leonhearts Academy was the disappearance of the strongest magician in the city. If he returned or someone replaced his position as the strongest, then it will be easier to calm the citizens that were thinking of leaving the place already. Wallace attended the class and made sure to copy the notes of the lectures that he missed. After all, he still wanted to graduate and take the license examinations in the future. In the meantime, he heard that Miss Chamber was now acting as the Headmaster of the Academy. Although it was only temporary since the Ministry of Magic Education would still give the final decision on this case, it was still a huge step forward for her desire to become a Headmaster. Wallace chatted and caught up with his friends at the academy as he still values his social relations. It was an important thing since he was aiming to be an influential person someday so he has to create an image for himself. Part of it was for the sake of the Cloud Hawk Manor as well. He can't let other people say that just because he became an apprentice of a Grand Arcanist, he was already a cold person or something like that. It might damage the name of the Manor too. *** As Wallace returned home. He quickly visited his new workshop that has now two floors and heard Avalon reporting its progress about his attempts to hack Veda using the Terminal he has. Then, he heard a good or probably bad report from Avalon. [ A connection to Veda has been made. ] [ Veda is requesting communication with the user. ] [ Would you like to link the connection? ]
