Chapter 376 - Invitation ( Part 2 )
Ace saw Wallace's appearance with his Bio-Armor suit in front of the Imperial Flagship…
"What?!"
He knows that he's about to do something crazy… However, confronting the fleet with his tiny figure seems to be a bit too crazy!
Wallace's body wouldn't even cover one of the main cannons of the spaceships.
He's too small in front of the enemies!
Nevertheless, he knows that the man wouldn't act without any plans whatsoever… There must be a reason for his appearance here…
'Seriously, how would you invite them like that?'
Ace mused. Wallace's said that he's planning to invite the Empire to land so Ace was a bit curious on how he would do it.
Then, he saw the Imperial Flagship activate all of their CIWS. Wallace would be in trouble if didn't act now…
Although Magicians are powerful with mana, there is a proper way of using it to fight against the enemies.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Another series of explosions occurred as Wallace received all of their attacks. The enemy doesn't seem to have plans of sending out their Mech Frames or other smaller machines to fight against the man…
'They should've realized that he's from the Federation by now… I wonder what they're thinking.'
Ace muttered as he observes the current actions of the Empire's fleet.
Wallace's bio-armor is something that everyone in the Empire should be aware of. There was a time when the creation of such armor was celebrated by the whole Federation after its successful development…
It was then massively marketed to the whole galaxy as the Federation created various ranks of bio-armors depending on their capabilities…
Right now, what Wallace is wearing has similarities of the latest and finest Bio-Armor of the Federation… or perhaps the latest during that time before he was sent here.
With this information, they should have some clues about his identity already…
"Hmm?"
Ace suddenly saw Wallace burst with power… It's not like he can feel the mana from here, but he somehow knows that this is his Astral Core's Energy…
The power accumulating in his hands is quite scary. Even Ace, who is so far away can recognize this due to the space surrounding Wallace started to distort.
'So this is a fraction of the Celestial's power.' Ace thought as he clenched his fist while watching the event unfold.
He doesn't know whether Wallace will be successful or not but whatever the result is, his power will definitely be recognized by the Imperial Army…
A power that is not something that any human could have.
The Empire's cannons fired at Wallace to try and interrupt the man from doing something with that power…
However, the figure just ignored it! The Bio-Armor wasn't even damaged at all. The man's resilience was truly incredible!
The soldiers of the Empire must be seething in anger by now…
Ace then looked at the stealthy Transcendence and Providence moving towards the Empire's Fleet…
On the other hand, the six Chronos have started moving in the opposite direction since Ace decided to give them a different mission.
He decided to just continue the original plan of letting them destroy the Conqueror Starships instead of joining Transcendence to attack… In their replacement was the Providence that is now fully repaired and resupplied after docking at the base for a few hours.
Soon, Ace noticed that Wallace's preparation was complete…
The young man, with his bright fist filled with energy, moved towards the Imperial Flagship!
He managed to avoid almost every bullet and laser of the spaceship's closed-in weapons system.
Wallace clenched his fist tightly and punched at the Flagship's Barrier!
The Five Conveyor Spacecraft, the four Black Sovereign Spaceships, and the remaining Invader Spaceships were unable to do anything to protect the Imperial Flagship from the tiny man's attacks…
The target is very small and was very tough!
They could only watch the spaceship get punched with that incredible energy…
As expected, the barrier was slowly unable to hold on!
The Flagship's barrier is the toughest within their fleet… Its destruction means that the other spaceships would be unable to defend it as well.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The Shield Generators started malfunctioning as they did their best to stop Wallace's attack…
If the Shield was removed, the flagship will be completely exposed!
Although it is made by the finest alloy in the galaxy, they still can't ignore the fact that their opponents have a weird method of combat…
They can't take the risk of putting down their shield especially the Imperial Flagship's.
The most important person within their fleet is living there!
Bam!
The Barrier was completely destroyed!
Then, they saw that the figure's attack hasn't ended yet! He's still ready to deal more damage to the Imperial Flagship!
They have to retreat at this rate!
The spaceships around can't attack the young man since he's too close to the Flagship. If they miscalculated their shot or perhaps missed the target, it would be huge trouble as they will just be helping the figure…
As the other captains of the spaceships started getting worried, Wallace was suddenly blocked by six huge humanoid figures…
The figures were surely over 3 meters tall and what's surprising about them is that they are not wearing spacesuits at all!
Their dark skin and bulging muscles were exposed as they wore a sleeveless golden robe on their bodies...
Ace, who had seen this through the screen within the command center, took a deep breath.
Even Wallace who had just exploded with power paused after seeing the figures…
They know them…
However, he didn't back away with his strike and continued to hit the Flagship…
Then, the energy in his fist was actually thrown and moved extremely fast to hit the spacecraft.
Bam!
However, the attack was completely blocked by one of the tall figures… He just actually slapped that energy before vanishing completely…
The others then looked at Wallace with their red eyes as they raised their hands to capture the man…
Whoosh!
Wallace used his Void Phase to avoid their encirclement but he didn't move too far… He reappeared in a safe distance before speaking with them in their language.
"Alright… I'm out… Follow me on the surface if you want to continue our fight…"
His words were simple.
He doesn't want to continue their fight here in outer space and wants to have it on the land. Aside from that, he must've also exhausted his powers to destroy the strongest barrier in the galaxy…
Whoosh!
They saw Wallace descend on the planet and he seemed to be looking at them while he's doing that… It appears that he's actually waiting for them to descend!
As the tall figures were watching the man disappear, they suddenly looked in a different direction…
They saw a rain of missiles and beams of light coming at them! Their timing was impeccable!
The figures quickly returned to the Flagship… The other spaceships surrounding it should be more than enough to deal with the attackers…
Ace is now watching the Transcendence and Providence's combined attack against the enemy fleet…
They are not hesitating to fire all of their missiles and cannons… It doesn't matter whether it exhausted their energy supply at all…
Boom! Boom!
The remaining Black Sovereign Spaceships are the ones doing most of the defense for the entire fleet.
They seem to be doing well considering they were caught off guard by their attacks…
However, one of the Black Sovereign's main cannons suddenly started turning stone!
It's the Petrification Caster!
It was followed by Mana Bombs that were slowly consuming the integrity of their shields.
Their attacks are all doing well!
Ace felt that this is a good chance for them to take out one or two of the Empire's spaceships.
However, his hope was short-lived as the Flagship that has no barrier, fire a beam of light that covered the two battleships…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Although they have defenses and mana barriers placed, there are still parts of the spaceship that was damaged by that beam of light…
'Tsk… This is bad…'
Ace thought after seeing that the Flagship decided to move forward and handle the two mid-size battleships by themselves.
The six tall beings that appeared in front of Wallace a while ago was definitely the Empyrean Guard…
They are from another Major Race, the Terub Legion, that has decided to side with the Empire for a valid reason.
He knows that their civilization was nearly wiped out by the Galactic Federation's army because it was said that they are a threat to humanity during that time and that they must be killed before they show signs of madness…
That's right, this race should be uncontrollable… It was like that until the appearance of the Empire that learned how to use their race and become their exclusive Empyrean Guard…
As far as Ace and Avalon know, these Empyrean Guard would not appear unless there's a royalty around!
This means that it's already guaranteed that there is a member of the Imperial Family within the Flagship!
