Chapter 311 - Start
About ten thousand light-years away from the Lagrange Point, a distortion appeared on the space.
The phenomenon looks eerie. It doesn't seem to be a natural occurrence but a reaction caused someone's manipulation.
The distortion started to be very small and as time passed, it became bigger and bigger. After a long while, the distortion changed its shape to an elongated one…
It was as if something was trying to get out of the distortion. It doesn't look simple at all.
Hoom~
The large object was trying to get out of the distortion but it was continuously failing. After a while, a stronger distortion was triggered as the object did its best to manifest within the space.
At last! Their patience had probably succeeded as the object within the distortion became very clear.
It was a huge interstellar spacecraft…
After it successfully came out, the distortion where it came from has calmed down and slowly disappeared as if there has been no previous distortion there at all.
If Wallace or Avalon had seen this, they would surely be surprised as the technology they are using wasn't just something that could utilize a wormhole but something that could create one!
It wasn't something that a minor race would have access to… It means that the spacecraft just now was from a Major Race! And among those major races, there was surely one that would be willing to visit this desolate star system.
The huge spacecraft didn't move for a long time as if it became exhausted after the long process of moving out of the distortion.
Boom!
No one knows where it started, but this huge spacecraft had suddenly exploded from the inside. There were no visible external forces that could have destroyed the huge spacecraft.
The explosion continued for a while until the spacecraft was completely unresponsive. Only chunks of metals and debris have remained. There weren't any signs of living beings who had survived the tragedy.
The space became eerily silent again.
Time passed and at the same spot where the previous distortion occurred, another wave of distortion appeared…
This time, it wasn't alone…
Several distortions appeared in a fast manner as if they were racing for time.
The distortions then showed another sign of objects coming out of it.
Hoomm~
A total of thirty distortions appeared as some objects were trying to enter the space. The struggle to get out of it had even lasted for many days…
Bam!
The first interstellar spacecraft that came out immediately released tons of unique humanoid machines that floated beside it. These tiny machines started to release some unknown energy that covered the whole spacecraft.
Unlike the previous spacecraft that exploded after getting out, this spacecraft seems to have managed to stabilize itself.
It moves forward as if to give space to the other spacecraft that would be coming out.
That's right. The distortion didn't disappear immediately… There were still thirty distortions!
Soon, several interstellar spacecraft came out of the distortions.
It was such a terrifying but beautiful sight.
They similarly released some unique humanoid machines that would pour some unknown energy and would cover the whole spacecraft.
Then, it was time for the last interstellar spacecraft to come out. It was the largest one. More than ten times larger than the first spacecraft that has appeared here…
It was the flagship!
It encountered the same problem as it struggled to come out… However, the other spaceships that had first came out assisted in this!
The humanoid machines started to tear the distortion! They were using special technology as if they were expecting this to happen!
They seem to have calculated everything and the first spacecraft that was destroyed was similarly part of the plan.
HHoooM!
Finally! The beautiful spacecraft made of the finest celestial materials came out to space!
This is the last spacecraft. Like they were celebrating, all the other spacecraft had activated their powerful engine at the same time…
Bright colors appeared as all the spacecraft matched their speed and moved towards one direction. It was like they were marching to war…
The distortions behind them then slowly closed forever…
Their destination may be unknown at this time. However, with such a strong force, they would surely cause a ripple to the star system and everyone would know about their presence.
This event wasn't a secret to Ace
He has been waiting for a long time… He had made a lot of preparations for this moment. He used a lot of resources to monitor the space… He maximized Avalon and created a lot of copy of this A.I. to ensure his success…
"Haaa~"
"Commence First Phase Defense Protocol."
Two months had already passed since the second batch of magicians had arrived. The first batch was already used to living in space and they had managed to connect with the Arians.
It may be foolish to say that they could fight against the Empire, but Wallace knows that they have their own advantage. They weren't unprepared. They weren't unaware of the enemy's possible strength.
He even believed that he would be able to surprise the Empire…
"Mana… as long as we used them correctly, we will have an advantage… We can't fight them on their phase, we have to bring them on ours…"
[ Communication Request from Wallace. ]
"About time… Accept it…"
"Ace? I've managed to verify the success of their experiment… It's not bad…"
"Really? Any side effects?"
"None so far… But I think that we can use them."
"Are you coordinating with their leader?"
"Chester? Yes… They agreed to our request…"
"Very good…"
"Are you sure that you want them as the third batch? Aren't the normal ones better"
"It wouldn't hurt to have stronger helpers…"
"Alright… Be careful up there… In case you failed, just retreat. We have another stronghold here waiting…"
"Hehe… I know… We have a lot of escape routes here…"
"That's good."
Wallace answered. He wanted to be the one fighting up there, unfortunately, he had to handle the Celestial Being down here. If not, they could cause a disaster and may ruin their plans.
