nA single member of the Terub Legion was able to tie down Wallace before.

nThat ratio alone made the others extremely fearful of this race. They know how powerful Wallace was especially after he returned from the Northern Continent.

nThus, many magicians would rather fight hundreds of Imperial Soldiers or tens of Khrusams than face a Terub alone!

nDuring the past few months that they've fought against the Aliens, the Terubs managed to kill the two Grand Sages of Virgan and three from Maja.

nThis shows how powerful and terrifying they are.

nIf Grand Sages couldn't even handle them, how could the Battle Mages or Adepts hope to fight against these monsters?

n

"The Celestial will deal with all the Terubs… I will help him in case someone tried to pull some tricks! We go according to plan!

"

nWallace immediately noticed the magicians' worry and spoke to them through their open channel.

nIt's true that the Terubs were indeed unmatched but the sacrifice of the Grand Sages of the two countries wasn't for naught. They have somehow forced the Terubs to reveal their real strength so they now have a good reference for how strong they are.

nIn truth, even if the Celestial would not join them in this fight, the Grand Arcanists led by Slaine Allusia had created a powerful Arcana to at least keep them busy or perhaps, permanently trap them.

nThe Array-Type Arcana that they've made hasn't been tested yet but this means that the magicians weren't idling at all.

n

"Master Slaine… Please monitor the Celestial's fight and act according to your judgment.

" Wallace said privately to the Grand Arcanist.

nRight now, Slaine and Aura, two of the three Grand Arcanists of Zairus were inside Excellence 2.0… They are together with several magicians that are meant to become a

"Plan B

" in case the Terubs were able to somehow deal with the Celestial.

nOf course, Wallace wasn't worried about the Celestial but the enemy might do some trick again to tie down the Celestial.

n

"Don't worry about us, Wallace. Be careful on facing those Khrusams. Once their third eyes are opened, they can be really annoying.

" Slaine replied giving some advice to his outstanding apprentice.

nWhen Slaine managed to infiltrate inside the Conveyor Spaceship before, he had faced several Khrusams in his path before he discovered the existence of the terrifying Space Beasts.

nHe had barely gotten passed through them by using his Final Stage of his AOTL and a couple of his support-type Arcana including the one that he used to put pressure on his surroundings.

n

"I understand. I'll keep it in mind.

" Wallace replied as he was notified that the Mech Frames are now coming for them.

nTheir protection has already crumbled and the real battle begins now.

nAlthough most of the Spaceships were already destroyed, the Imperial Army's number still exceeds 130,000…

nThey were outnumbered by the magicians but a single Imperial Soldier would not lose in a fight against the Adepts…

nAfter all, once the magicians used up all their Mana, they would have no choice but to retreat. There was no way they could defend against the photon swords or laser guns of these soldiers wearing bio-armors…

nNormal Spells like fireballs, water shots, wind blades, earth spike, or other Grade 1 Mana Spells would not even scratch these bio-armors.

nOnly complex spells at the peak of Grade 2 can at most push them back. If they wanted to really kill the soldiers, they have to use most of their Mana to cast special Grade 3 spells and kill them in a swift manner.

nBang! Bang! Bang!

nAs soon as the Mech Frames launch their attacks, the Mech Knights including the Iron Knights and Steel Knights started moving forward and firing their guns and artifacts.

nUnfortunately, only the Mech Knights can be trusted in aerial battle as the Iron and Steel Knights with ancient technology remained fighting on the ground dealing with the soldiers and Khrusams that has survived the explosion.

nThey do not have the finest flight system that could make them fight equally with the Mech Frame after all. So it's better for the latest Mech Knights to deal with the Mech Frames of the aliens.

nBoom! Boom! Boom!

nThe battle between the Celestial and the Terubs had also started… According to their plan, the Celestial would have to bring them away from the crowd of magicians to avoid any unnecessary casualties.

nWallace looked at the Terubs and saw several ancient markings or perhaps runes glowing on their bodies as they fought against the Celestial…

n'As expected, they're not really taking me seriously when they caught me before.' Wallace couldn't help but shudder after seeing that the Terubs were able to fight equally with the Celestial Being.

nLuckily, he didn't fight against these Terubs directly and he was using his Void Phase to run away.

nThis was probably the reason why they weren't using the runes during that time.

nSince it was a matter of speed or teleportation, perhaps the runes weren't that effective.

n'Tsk… They didn't even use it against the Grand Sages… How cunning… If we don't have the Celestial and rely on Master Slaine's array, we're really done for.' Wallace still felt lucky with their current situation.

nSoon, he saw several glowing Mech Knights charging towards the Mech Frames and fighting them using melee weapons…

nThey have finally used their Arcanist Phase to pressure the enemies… After all, they have to force the fight in close range since they can't let the Dragon's Warrior Mech or Wolf's Sledger Mech.

n'It's time…'

nWallace then looked at the Imperial Flagship… After seeing the engagement of the humanoid Mechs, he knows that they have to step up with their plan.

nAs the battle between the Adepts and Soldiers was happening everywhere, the Airships and their Transatmospheric Battleships were flying higher in the sky.

nRight now, the Meredith Empire only has 2 Invader Spaceships and 2 Black Sovereign Spaceships. Apparently, these spaceships do not have any Nuclear Warheads with them that he could trigger with his ability.

nOn the other hand, all the Conqueror Starship has already been destroyed.

nAs for the Conveyor Starships, they have all remained in their camps around the continent since they do not have a strong offensive power.

nWith this in mind, Wallace is planning now to directly attack the Flagship!
