Chapter 437 - Invaded Planet ( 2 )
As the planet is slowly being conquered by the Meredith Empire, Wallace was actually resting deep underwater.
Inside the Deep Sea Creature\'s city to be exact!
"How long we\'ve been trapped here, Avalon?" Wallace asked his A.I. Luckily, he has this independent Avalon with him at all times.
Right now, his bio-armor suit was still under self-restoration so he couldn\'t use it… He wore his normal suit like he\'s attending a business meeting.
He has no visible injuries but one can see on his face how exhausted he is…
[ A total of 65 days and 12 hours. ]
"Tsk… That long, huh… This is bad. Do you think they\'ve managed to deal with the Terubs above?"
[ According to the plan, the Northern Natives would have to deal with them… Aside from that, the Traceless Hands factory should be creating Mech Knights non-stop to further assist them. ]
"Haa~ I guess the Space Beasts are the real trouble, huh."
[ Correct. However, they are all infants and they would need plenty of time to adjust to this mana-infested world. ]
"Do you know exactly how long?"
[ No. However, if they are similar to the records we got from Veda. It will perhaps require 1 to 6 months. ]
Wallace wryly smiled after hearing this. At this point, he\'s unable to help them since he and the Celestial has to hide here in the underwater city…
Apparently, the strongest being inside the Flagship isn\'t the prince of the Empire but the King of the Yorian Race who had decided to join this expedition!
That\'s right, the King of one of the Major Races is present here!
Their opponents in this war are the Mutated Humans from the Empire, the Khrusam Race, the Terub Legion, and finally, the Yorian Race!
The three Major Races allied with the Empire are here!
Wallace had never expected that the Empire would actually bring these four races with them… He somehow expected the Terub Legion if there is a Royal Family included but the other two races left him speechless.
They truly wanted to conquer this planet at all costs.
Even Avalon barely has any record in its database about the gathering of these four forces at the same time.
It means that once it happened, it\'s guaranteed that some big event is about to happen and in this case, it is the invasion of this planet.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Wallace then heard the echoing sound of the city\'s barrier…
"They\'re going at it again…" The young man muttered as realized what that sound is.
He\'s currently inside the castle so he can see the whole situation outside.
The previously lone King of the Yorian Race brought all his men and surrounded the city.
They couldn\'t get in thanks to the dead Celestial Being\'s power empowering the barrier… However, Wallace was also unable to get out because of this.
Even if he tried to use his Void Phase, he couldn\'t phase through outside of it.
The King, who appears like a humanoid toad, had also used some kind of a space lock around the city… Well, it can also be through the help of Flagship\'s technology but he knows that the Yorian King was able to control the space lock for some reason.
Wallace sighed as he heard the banging sound stop.
It seems that the alien aquatic race decided to temporarily halt destroying the barrier.
He then left the balcony and entered the castle.
Inside the special room where the dead Celestial and his Celestial friend are resting, Wallace felt his Astral Core rejuvenized.
Apparently, when the King and the Celestial fought together, the latter was surprising at disadvantage…
It wasn\'t because the Celestial was lacking in power but because the Yorian King has brought the Celestial deep underwater where the Aquatic Race can get stronger almost every minute he stays here…
Every time the Celestial destroys the King\'s body, it would just turn into water and reform after a second… The King will be completely healed as if he didn\'t fight a decisive battle against the Celestial.
He was basically immortal under the sea.
It was so unfair but there\'s nothing they can do. It\'s not like they can also kill the Celestial Being.
Nevertheless, this is why the Celestial did its best to find the space crack they used to bring him underwater and reuse it to go back! He was successful in doing this and found Wallace outside the Flagship…
When the Celestial felt that he was about to be forcefully moved again, he decided to bring Wallace with him in case he has a method to defeat the Yorian King.
Unfortunately, both of them have no idea how to kill it…
They ended up retreating inside this protected city thanks to the previous preparation made by the Celestial when he took some items within the Treasure Vault of this city.
Apparently, he managed to mark this place completely, and even strengthened the barrier or array used to protect this land.
"Do you have any method to kill that annoying water?"
Wallace then heard the voice of the Celestial inside his head.
"No, Sir... However, we know that once we bring the battle on the land, we should be able to defeat that creature."
"Should I try to evaporate all the water in the sea?"
"Eh? No, I don\'t think that\'s a good idea even if you can do it."
"Hmm… Have you thought of a method to stop them from using the Space Crack to bring us wherever they like?"
"Haa… In truth, I\'m also unsure about its principle. However, it doesn\'t seem to be omnipotent since it couldn\'t do anything about the city\'s barrier. I think it is due to the dead Celestial\'s remaining power. In any case, how was your Core?"
"I\'m perfectly fine. Perhaps two to three more weeks and it will be completed."
The Celestial announced. Apparently, their current plan is to overload the Celestial\'s Astral Core before they\'ll try to fight the Yorian King again.
They are thinking to overpower the spatial ability of the Empire through their brute force.
"Very well… I\'ll do something about the remaining aquatic race outside…" Wallace said as he clenched his fist.
Lightning sparks started surrounded his fist creating a bright light within the room.
