Magical Academy: Rise of the Supreme Magic Craftsman

Chapter 423 - Planetary Invasion ( 1 )



Ace felt a little alarmed by the incredible effect of that light. 

He didn\'t think that he, who was only watching through a screen, was also slightly affected by the mind stone… It was incredible and quite terrifying to imagine. 

Luckily, he wasn\'t the targeted party so he was let off so easily.

"Avalon… What was that mind stone\'s effect? Veda didn\'t include a report about this kind of power."

Ace only used the mind stones in outer space similar to how the Arians are using them in their explosives. It creates confusion to the enemies and once injected by mana, it actually creates stronger destruction in the surroundings. 

[ Analyzing… ] 

Avalon perhaps found something from that light and quickly extracted information. 

[ Analysis Complete. ] 

[ Encrypted messages in low-frequency sound were included in that light… ] 

"Encrypted message?"

[ Yes. The burst of light from the Mind Stone wasn\'t just a normal light. It includes an almost inaudible voice or message coming from the Arians. ]

[ I\'m unable to analyze the message but it is probably a form of suggestion or hypnosis being amplified by the Mind Stone. ] 

"That\'s---That\'s incredible, Avalon. I didn\'t think that you\'ve managed to catch that." Ace praised the A.I. a little. 

[ Yes… It appears to be a message at a frequency that a human ear can\'t pick up, but enough for the mental perception to do so. This makes the target unaware of the hypnosis message they are getting. I could no longer analyze it further than that. ] 

"Hmmm… I see… So sound a bit dangerous then… I hope it\'s effective against the aliens."

Ace pondered as he observed the Arians on the screen. The target of that light is the aliens inside the spaceships in that region.

Of course, the other soldiers and Khrusams nearby had to also endure that attack. 

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Series of explosions suddenly occurred inside the spaceships!

Their hypnosis is effective!

Ace doesn\'t know what\'s happening inside but it\'s not hard to guess that the burst of light from the mind stones was actually effective!

However, as everyone on the battlefield was about to celebrate, they noticed that the Khrusams weren\'t affected by the light. 

It appears that only those armored soldiers were affected!

The Khrusams advanced with a much stronger force as each of them started activating their Third Eyes!

They are no longer here to probe the natives but to eliminate them…

Aside from that, the Invader Spaceships including the Conveyors had finally released their Destroyer Battleships!

These battleships are those that only carry explosives… They are meant to be used for bombardment!

Avalon immediately warned everyone on the battlefield!

However, there were still too many Mech Frames around so they couldn\'t easily retreat. Turning their backs to the enemies would just help the aliens kill them quickly. 

On the other hand, the Death Energy of the Khrusams with opened Third Eye is stronger than the energy released by the Cryptic Mages… They are at disadvantage!

Bam!

The bombardment against the Mage Battalions including the Airships and Arians has started!

***

Ace realized that it is not looking good. It seems that the Imperial Army is ready to go all out at this moment. 

Beep!

[ The 6 Black Sovereign Spaceships in Guwain started moving. ] 

"What? Where are they going?"

[ They are all moving in different directions. ]

Avalon then showed the path of the six. They have left the Imperial Flagship with the two Conveyor Spaceships!

The Black Sovereign seems to be headed to other countries!

Beep!

[ Their targets may be the mining sites or locations where memory crystals can also be found but in a very small amount compared to their first targets… ] 

Avalon added its report. Luckily, they have long gathered all the information of other mining sites so it\'s now quite easy to predict their moves.

"Memory Crystals again… So they are just scanning the surroundings until this time?" Ace muttered as he looked at the six mining spots highlighted by Avalon.

[ It appears so. However, it seems that they are also in a hurry. Perhaps, the Imperial Soldiers they have don\'t have enough time as well. ] 

Ace quickly understood what Avalon was trying to say. 

The memory crystals are most likely an item that will allow their Imperial Soldiers to withstand the Mana Rejection in their bodies. If it\'s not for that, it doesn\'t make sense how they are prioritizing taking them instead of conquering the land with their incredible firepower.

Perhaps, they are reserving their spaceship\'s energy and thinking of moving out of the planet if they couldn\'t get the crystals they needed in time. 

"I couldn\'t think of a reason… However, this is the only explanation why the Imperial Soldiers look so weak…" 

Ace muttered after analyzing a bit. 

The Bio-Armored Soldiers carrying advanced tech weapons seem to be having a hard time. They weren\'t like how he imagined them to be. In the end, he can only blame the environment they were in so they are unable to show their full strength. 

As for the memory crystals that they are collecting, Ace including the two Artificial Intelligence wasn\'t aware of how it works. So it was a bit surprising that the Empire have prior knowledge about this… 

\'Haa~ The Empire will probably have control over three more countries after this…\'

Right now, the Imperial Army has fully taken the State of Kazan.

The citizens of Guwain had also started moving away since they have realized that the aliens weren\'t that friendly to them… 

Any Airships, Steel Knights, and Magicians nearing to them would be shot down without any questions. It is only a matter of time that the aliens will start attacking them. 

For now, Ace can only pray that Wallace and the Celestial Being would make their move soon.

\'Just where are those two anyway?\' 

Ace can feel that his other half is still not dead… However, aside from that, he no longer has an idea of what\'s happening to him.

If he didn\'t make his move yet, the entire planet would probably succumb to the Empire.
