Chapter 360 - Aliens vs Magicians ( Part 2 )

Everyone was so happy seeing the huge airship rushing towards their location.

Most of them were not aware of the existence of such technology but seeing the flag allied to their country, their face immediately lit up, they finally found hope.

Then, several other airsh.i.p.s from their own country also arrived from different directions! Aside from that, they can see smokes from afar as their country's army together with the Mage Battalions were hurrying to this place.

'We can do this!'

'Just run! They aren't using powerful guns anyway... We can do this!

'Flash Bomb!'

The town's people hurried in the direction of the incoming army… Some of them even used a few Grade 1 Spells to at least delayed the flying vehicles that are chasing them…

Some of them also noticed that the aliens seem to be quite inclined in capturing some of them instead of killing all of them. 

This is perhaps the reason that they aren't going to aggressive in this battle.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, they saw the Airsh.i.p.s of their country fired several high-grade Mana Spells to the humanoid machines and small flying vehicles in the sky…

The alien's beautiful barrier activated but the Fire and Lightning from those Mana Spell managed to deal huge damage to their barriers that the second shot shattered them completely leaving the machines exposed to the Mana Spells…

Boom! Boom!

About 10 Mech Frames were destroyed by the continuous assault of their airship… 

The citizen can a huge number of flying magicians as they started using their Mana Artifacts to cast their magic and destroy the many Marauder Gears and Mech Frames of the Meredith Empire!

"Wooh!"

"Kill them all!"

The people started celebrating a little… Although a lot of people and magicians died defending the town, they couldn't help but be grateful for the arrival of these strong Magicians.

They can see the strong spells like Petrification, Vacuum Grip, Wind Chain, Poison Dust, and other elemental spells affect the flying vehicles…

Even though only a few of them were effective against the humanoid machines, if it's cast in large numbers, they would certainly affect them little by little until they succ.u.mb to the power of Mana… It doesn't matter whether they are made of some unnatural materials in outer space, their magic would surely do something about it.

Vedran, who had seen everything from afar was also quite happy seeing the aggressive attacks of their magicians…

However, he knows that the gigantic spacesh.i.p.s from afar wouldn't just watch at this…

Clang! Clang!

They are now planning to fight seriously!

Over 200 Destroyers sortied out!

He felt like he was seeing bees going out of their hive as the Destroyers blocked the sky…

However, Vedran was still not losing hope, these soldiers should know what they would be facing and they should have some plans for this…

Boom!

A massive explosion suddenly occurred as one of the Airship of their country exploded!

'What happened?'

Vedran didn't see what happened, but a part of the airship just exploded without any signs whatsoever.

He couldn't understand why… After thinking for a moment, he thought of something.

'Is it an internal problem? Urgh… Why now?'

It must also be noted that only one of the gigantic spaceship was doing all the work and sending out armies against their airsh.i.p.s and magicians…

It is not the time to have issues with their own weapons or vehicles… What a failure!

***

'This is bad… They are too close to each other…'

Wallace was still watching the whole situation in Kazan. 

Nevertheless, he's hoping that Veda has plans about this… He knows that it is a good chance to fire the Psionic Pulse and other advanced cannons by the empire…

"Urgh… This is no good… Why is it too slow?" He muttered to himself referring to his secret weapon.

This country is still quite far from the floating islands, after all, most of them were placed in the central area of the continent so he was getting a bit impatient now… 

Unfortunately, he won't be able to do much by himself even if he goes there alone unless he could enter one of the spacesh.i.p.s and cause havoc.

If the Empire decided to send out the mutated or the super-enhanced humans outside, even if he has magic, he would surely have trouble with them unless he decided to use his Aeon Guardian.

Actually, he already has a hunch that they would send them once the Marauder Gears didn't appear to be very effective anymore.

For now, he can guarantee that the Empire is still gauging the magician's current power…

So it should be a good chance for the soldiers of Kazan to decrease the Empire's forces… They just have to be careful of the enemy's Psionic Pulse.

Boom! 

He then saw the airship of Kazan explode…

"Avalon, what's that?"

[ A higher level of Psionic Pulse from a few Mech Frames targeted the airship. The attack is invisible to the human eye. ] 

"Tsk… I knew it…"

The Psionic Pulse Technology appears to have evolved. Although the weapon was still silent, it is no longer similar to Avalon's record.

"Did you record that?"

[ Yes. ] 

After the explosion, he saw a lot of Destroyers, bombard the soldiers together with the Mage Battalions from afar…

Various high-level Mana Artifacts with very strong defensive spells were used to protect themselves.

However, many shields were still broken as they were crushed by the Empire's bombers…

Screams of pain and agony, together with many angry shouts can be heard as the soldiers were unable to do anything but defend themselves from the onslaught of the empire's Mech Frames…

Although they have tons of Mana Reserves with them, the pressure was still bearing down on them…

"Ohh… They're moving…"

Reiji saw the Seiji's Army with Veda's Experimental  Soldiers charge towards the group of spacesh.i.p.s that landed near the volcano…

"Avalon, how many Experimental Soldiers are there?"

[ We received a piece of detailed information from Veda stating that he sent 200 Enhanced Soldiers among the Seiji's Reinforcements. ]

"I see, Let's see what they can do."

***

Aaron is representing the Lucent Force at the council of war here in Zairus.

Though his father was not retired yet, he wanted to let Aaron gain experience as he let the young man participate in the discussion.

"The State of Kazan and the Aliens have started fighting on their lands…" 

Hayden Fraser spoke to the people within the council…

"What's the situation?"

Troy Webb, his disciple, and the representative of the Ministry of Magic Education asked… None of them have methods of knowing the situation in that far away place…

"It's not looking good for Kazan… The Aliens seem to be using very advanced technology, almost similar to magic… There's a high chance that the country will fall within less than a week… Aside from that, not even the whole Alien's fleet descended…"

"So, you're telling me that they are just the vanguard?"

"Hmm… You can interpret it like that… But if you're thinking that the others would also decide to descent there, you should remove that idea in your head… They will surely move to another area to increase the coverage of their limited Spacesh.i.p.s…"

"It's good that you have sources…"

"Mhmm… I got it from Wallace Ravencroft. Right, he will try to assist the island country but we can't expect that much from a single Magician…"

"Of course… We can understand that…"

"The fact that he's willing to go there already deserved my loyalty."

Yumi Juria, the representative of NMTI, agreed with that…

While they are all preparing for the time when their country would be attacked, there is actually a man that would willingly go to a far country to help them instead. It is such a selfless attitude.

Then, Hayden Fraser used a device and showed them the current situation of the state of Kazan as they fought desperately against the Aliens of the galactic empire. 

They saw the volcano near the spacesh.i.p.s of the Empire was spitting out smokes and lava…

The land within the 10 kilometers of the spacesh.i.p.s was in total destruction… It was filled with dust and rubble… All the trees were burned or turned to ashes and the buildings were turned into ruins. 

But despite that, they can see a few Magicians covered with powerful Mana Spell as they desperately fight against the aliens equipped with highly advanced weapons…

"This… It hasn't been long since they descended, right?"

"Correct… This is all because of the enemy's inhuman bombardment… Haa~ I'm actually impressed that there are still a few Magicians left and are fighting to the death against the enemy… 

"Tsk… So that was why you predicted that it will only take less than a week…"

One of the members of the council sighed in realization. Only a few spacesh.i.p.s landed but this is already the result of the battle…
