Novel Full Chapter 459 - End Plan ( 4 )
The destructive Nuclear Explosion that has occurred has been detected by the Imperial Army. This size of the explosion is extremely difficult to hide after all.
Even the magicians from various countries had sensed the incredible change in the atmosphere.
"So they already made their move. Avalon, what about this Nuclear Explosion? Will it cause some problems later on? We can't destroy the planet, please remind Wallace about that." Ace said to the A.I. beside him.
He wasn't sure about Wallace's plan as Avalon isn't providing information to him in real-time. In most cases, he would only know when he decided to ask about him.
[ I will relay the information. ]
[ Radiation problems can naturally be solved by mana according to Veda. However, observation will continue as per Wallace's instructions. ]
The A.I. answered.
"I see… That's good to hear."
Ace nodded as he lead his team to dismantle the Space Beasts they had just recently killed. As planned, they wanted to acquire their cores and have their best Arcane Artificers produce the best energy core for their Mech Knights or even for their Battleships. Though they weren't sure how to do this yet.
The Space Beasts possess incredible power and they can only be killed by restricting them using complicated Mana Arrays empowered by Lamat Stones.
It means that possessing their core gives them an incredible source of energy that can be used against the Empire.
Apparently, they can't use the same method they implemented to kill the Space Beasts against the other Aliens since Lamat Stones and Arrays can be easily defended by a group of intelligent beings.
They are unlike these Space Beasts who only rely on their raw power to crush their enemies.
"Ace… I think that using these Cores is too dangerous. None of us can even touch that thing directly. How can we even create something out of it?"
Grand Sage Maze worriedly asked. The cores of these space beasts must be coated by several layers of mana arrays before someone can hold them.
This also means that it will be difficult for the Arcane Artificer to create an energy core since the method they used to create the Molten Core of the Steel Knights requires physical contact!
"That's fine. We will just have to create a different method to create a new core. We can't use the same method with the Molten Cores with these powerful objects anyway."
Ace said as he wasn't too worried about this.
If a Grand Sage has no idea what to do, it's not something that he's worried about. After all, they have Grand Arcanists that should be capable of doing this.
He then looked at Aura, the old Grand Arcanist within their group, as he nodded in response. The old man doesn't seem to worry as he even looks very interested in trying this out.
He may not have a clear method right now but researching this shouldn't take that much time considering that they have plenty of references to use.
"Alright… I guess these people will be busy for a while." Maze sighed helplessly. In truth, she didn't want this core to be turned into an energy supply for a Mech or Spaceship. Instead, she wanted it to create a powerful Mage Tower!
Of course, she didn't dare mention that for now but she's planning to have one of these cores once the war is over. She knows that it will not be impossible considering her number of contributions to this war.
Beep!
[ Once Wallace and the rest finished off the Empire's Camp in Seiji, they are planning to return to Zairus to bring a larger force to deal with the Imperial Flagship at Guwain. ]
"That fast? We're still not ready though… Even though we already dealt with the Space Beasts, it would still be difficult for us. Just remember the Terub Legion. If five or ten of them showed up at the same time, it would be a disaster to the magicians."
Based on their calculations, there are about 200 thousand Imperial Soldiers including the Khrusams scattered around the world right now.
He's confident that his elite Northern Natives, Terror Mages, Mech Knight Divisions, and Veda's Cryptic Mages will be able to somehow fight them but the normal soldiers of the country would definitely become cannon fodder at this rate.
[ Yes. However, Wallace is planning this large-scale attack to force the Empire to gather its forces in a single place. This way, it would not be difficult for the Celestial to find them. ]
"Ugh… That makes sense… But this is too dangerous for Adepts or even Battle Mages that don't have Bio-Armor, Mech Knights, or powerful defensive abilities. I'm pretty sure there will be a rain of Psionic Pulse and Subspace Blasters on the battlefield."
Ace thought for a while but he couldn't really do anything about it.
Once Wallace gathered a large force, it would indeed be detected by the Empire and would gather their forces as well in return. It is a good plan but it's also risky.
Right now, they have at least 5 Mid-Size Transatmospheric Battleships thanks to his factory that is working nonstop.
They were hastily built in the past few weeks with the help of magicians they have gathered during the war.
Aside from that, the Veritas Wing had also produced 30 more Airships silently and were ready to operate.
In short, they can indeed repeat the previous great offensive they did when the Empire had just recently landed.
If this really happened, this would be their Third Great Offensive after more than a couple of months.
Beep!
[ Miya and her team just reported that they have completed training the last batch of magicians who are learning the Soul Art: Death Energy Control. ]
[ We now have a total of 280 Magicians who can operate the Corpse Furnace that the Artificers have reconstructed. ]
"Ugh… Fine. Let's gather everyone then… This would be Third—No, perhaps the Last Offensive that we will operate."
Ace smiled helplessly as he messaged the various leaders of the country, including the remaining forces of Maja and Virgan...
They now have to get ready for the final stage of this war.
