nDr. Mao is a Mage Doctor who specializes in the Alteration Path… However, after his expedition to the Northern Continent, he realized that learning the other two paths was also very important in his career.

nThis is why he decided to study the Enhancement and Mysticism Path after returning here.

nThough he didn't have plenty of time to study them, he reached an intermediate-level in the study and achieved an incredible advancement in terms of his medical practice…

nRight now, he felt that as long as a magician is breathing, he would have a chance of treating them…

nHe looked at the critically injured magicians that are being assisted by other medical practitioners. He also noticed that some automatons seem to have medical capabilities which surprised him a little…

n'What was that?'

nHe just saw an operation room fully operated by automatons or machines…

nOne of the automatons, that seems to be a surgeon, has a human-like body except for its hands filled with smaller operating tools… He can see its gentle movements as it removes the shrapnels inside the magician's internal organs…

n'This… I didn't think that we've advanced this much already…' Dr. Mao thought as he suddenly felt that he is not needed in this place. Though he has skills as a doctor, he somehow felt that the automaton can beat him in terms of working capabilities.

nAfter all, he also gets tired after a few operations while this Automaton would most likely be capable of working until it runs out of supply of energy… and if that happens, changing the mana stones of these automatons can definitely make it work again.

n

"How many Doctor Automatons do you have, Avalon?

"

nHe asked one of the normal automatons near him.

n We have 10 of them in total and only 2 of them are here. We can't put them all in the same location as recreating such machines would take us a very long time. We need to ensure that we are safe from any danger first before putting them all together.

n

"Hmm… I understand… If they can do such an amazing job, then building them is probably extremely difficult as well…

"

nThe man nodded as he proceeded to diagnose some unconscious patients in a special ward.

nApparently, they are patients that couldn't be saved through normal means.

nEven with Veda's medical knowledge, saving them would not be a guarantee unless they could get the latest Medical Chamber that is popular throughout the galactic civilization. The Medical Chamber is a nanite-reproduction medical station that could probably bring anyone back to life as long as they still have an ounce of life on them…

n Can you treat the patients here?

nThe doctor looked at the patients within the room and used his Spirit Arts to get a full picture of their current situation.

n

"Mhmm… It will be hard… But I'll do my best.

"

n Very well. I will leave them to you. You will be assisted by a few Apprentices. If you need anything, you can just call me.

n

"Alright… I understand.

"

nAs soon as he said this, five medical practitioners greeted Dr. Mao. It seems that they've been waiting for him for a while now.

nNevertheless, as soon as he confirmed the situation of each patient, he determined categorized each of them according to their critical level. Then, after confirming the sequence of their treatment, he quickly gave instructions to assistants as he checked the operating table…

n

"Everything's prepared… Bring me the first patient…

"

nDoctor Mao said as he started working…

n***

nWallace dealt with the imperial army quite swiftly… They would probably cause a lot of trouble if they fought against their Adept Mages here. He wouldn't be surprised if a single Imperial Soldier with Bio-Armor and complete weapons can kill five or Adept Mages at all.

nThis is not because he's underestimating the Adept Mages but because he knows that the weapons of these people would pose a threat to the magicians…

nPerhaps, only Adept Mages with forbidden spells were capable of fighting a soldier in a fair duel.

nBoom! Boom! Boom!

nHe no longer cared whether he spends most of his Mana and Astral Energy as he attacked with an intention to fully kill or disable the soldiers…

nIf he hesitates for a bit, they will just cause a lot more trouble to him. After all, a single soldier that is stationed in this Conqueror Starship had probably received 15 to 20 gene enhancements… If they were allowed to use their long-range weapons and other advanced tech weapons, he might have to spend a lot more energy to defend against them…

n Failed to take over the A.I…

n Failed to bypass the security…

n Failed to connect to Veda…

n Failed to create any connection outside the spaceship.

n The location of one of the main targets confirmed.

nReiji heard Avalon's multiple failures… Anyway, he's not expecting that it's capable of hacking the system…

nNevertheless, he was a little surprised that outside communication was blocked already… It happened so fast.

nAnyway, the Avalon that he has is just a copy, so the mainframe outside will just continue doing their task even without receiving orders.

nAt the very least, Avalon still managed to find their target after using their scanner inside the spaceship…

nThe A.I. gave directions as he met stronger Imperial Soldiers with better weapons…

nThud! Thud!

nSounds of closing gates were suddenly heard as soon as he met five soldiers wearing weird Bio-Armor…

nApparently, all the nearby airtight bulkheads of the spaceship were closed trapping Wallace with the five soldiers in front of him…

n'Hmph!'

nHe used his used Astral Energy to destroy them again but this time, the Soldiers acted quickly and fully activated their Bio-Armor…

nBam!

nOne of them was hit by his concentrated energy but he wasn't thrown away whatsoever…

nThe five Imperial Soldiers are now wearing full-black Bio-Armor which seems to have enlarged their bodies even more.

nThey are now 5 meters tall as if Wallace is facing a smaller Mech Frame!

n'Aren't you a bit too big in this narrow space?'

nWallace commented after seeing that he's trapped with these soldiers… Nevertheless, he thought of ignoring the five and make a hole at the bulkhead behind them.

nBang!

nHe used his fast movement to appear behind the enemies and strikes the 20-inch metal blocking his way…

nHe expected that his power was enough to destroy the bulkhead but he was surprised about the energy covering it!

nDeath Energy!

n'Tsk… Where did they get the Death Energy?'

nIt's not like there are other magicians outside that they could kill… The Terror Mages should be hiding and the members of the Seiji Alliance shouldn't be near this region as well…

nHe then tried using his Void Phase but he realized that he's unable to move outside!

n'Heh~ Impressive… So you really want me to kill these soldiers first… Very well.'

nWallace took a deep breath as he looked at the imperial soldiers in front of him… They are equipped with such an impressive armor technology that is probably focused on defense. Anyway, this type of soldier is probably in the other spaceships as well…

nLearning about them now might help the other landing sites as well…

n***

n'Mhmm? Did he just die?'

nThe Celestial Being under the sea pondered for a moment. Apparently, he has been monitoring Wallace's life presence until now.

nHe felt that the man just exploded with power and he thought that he's probably fighting the aliens from outer space.

nSince he fought with the young man before, he knows that Wallace hadn't taken his fight seriously yet. After all, he forced the young man to fight in a life or death situation many times already.

nThis is why he had a good grasp of the man's current skills.

nHowever, the man's life force just disappeared without any signs of weakening at all… It appears as though Wallace was just obliterated by something… Of course, if there is such thing that could kill the young man, he would've surely felt this already and perhaps, made a move to save the young man.

nBefore he learned the Divine Sense from Wallace, he made a deal with the young man. And apparently, saving him a few times is included in it…

n

"Is there something wrong, Lord Celestial?

"

n

"I will be checking something out… I want you to line up all the treasure I pointed out. I will be inspecting them once I returned.

"

n

"Yes. It will be done, Lord Celestial.

" The head of the Deep Sea Creatures answered while bowing his head.

nHe didn't dare to look directly at the Celestial's figure as often even if they are close. He's scared that he might offend the entity by making any disrespectful actions.

nSshh~

nAs soon as he straightened his body, he realized that the Celestial has already disappeared…

n

"Haaa~

"

nHe finally heaved a sigh of relief as he called his subordinates to arrange the precious stones and items that caught the Celestial's attention.
