Chapter 452 - Attempt

Splash!

The remaining Yorians' blood was finally removed as they dropped on the ocean. It happened after Wallace tried absorbing them instead of cutting them off using his Sentient Mana!

Unfortunately, he spent almost an hour doing this and he didn't even manage to consume them all as they collapsed completely after a while.

'Ugh… Mr. Celestial, I hope you're still doing fine.'

Wallace quickly used his Divine Sense to feel the presence of the Celestial. The humanoid toad or the Yorian King is basically unkillable as long as he can stay underwater.. 

This is a huge problem that even the Celestial is having trouble dealing with it…

"Found them…"

Luckily, the Celestial appears to be fighting the immortal up until now! It is really impressive considering how they remain in a stalemate.

"Hilda, I need everyone's help to defeat the Yorian King." 

"Of course. We've been waiting for you to say that. Everyone's ready!" Hilda immediately replied after hearing Wallace's voice from the intercom.

"We need to move the King out of the water. If we're unable to do this, even the Celestial would not be able to win at this rate."

"I understand… However, we don't have any tools for catching a target. All we have are destructive weapons." Hilda replied as the Radiant Knight was indeed designed for the purpose of decimating the aliens without holding back.

"You're right… I'm planning to use everyone's Magic Nodes for this. Avalon has full details on our plan and just looks into it… Anyway, I will be the one engaging with the King."

Wallace replied as he already has plans for this.

The Magic Nodes, or perhaps one of the keys in creating a powerful shield similar to a city-level barrier, can actually create a protective air space…

This is made with that kind of mana spell as it is supposedly a life-saving Artifact that can be used in outer space!

As a matter of fact, this has been the case during their attempt to stop the fleet from the Empire.

The Magic Nodes have saved many lives in the vacuum space when the pilots were fȯrċɨbŀƴ removed from their Mech Knights… After all, there are cases that their spacesuits would not be enough to protect them from space debris and these nodes have truly done a huge part for their survival.

"We understand… We'll act according to Avalon's instructions."

Soon, the two Mech Knights divisions, or a total of 40 Radiant Knights readied themselves to deal with the Yorian King…

Hilda looked at the water below and aside from the floating corpses of the Yorians, none of them could see or even feel that battle going on underwater.

For some reason, anything that is happening down there is being suppressed by some kind of magic.

"Alright, I'll head down now…"

Wallace said before reequipping his Bio-Armor and jumping on the water…

He immediately used his Void Phase though it is suppressed and requires a longer time to activate. Anyway, there are no longer sea creatures disturbing him…

It didn't take long before he saw the battle of the Celestial and the humanoid toad!

"I will have to retreat again if this continues for long…" A familiar echoing voice in his mind suddenly interrupted Wallace's thoughts.

"Sir Celestial, I have a plan on bringing this toad in the air… Do you think you can defeat him quickly if I managed to do that?"

"Of course. He has a blue core on his ċhėst. I know that it is the one keeping him alive. However, even after destroying that several times, it just turns into water and reviving him."

"A blue core? I understand. We'll still proceed with the plan to isolate it since it can't be destroyed as long as it's within the water."

"Yes. I tried to remove the water using my Astral Heat as well but it seems that he can also produce water and not just rely on it, so keep it in mind."

Wallace nodded at his advice. He wasn't too surprised about it and he was more concerned whether destroying the blue core would truly be enough.

Nevertheless, as soon as he confirmed from Avalon that the Knights are ready… He immediately ordered them to initiate the fight…

Traceless Oscillation…

Wallace activated his signature mana spell within the water… It pushed off all the incoming sea creatures as some of them even went unconscious.

Apparently, he's worried that killing too many of them would create another binding curse to his body. That would be a disaster considering their situation.

This is why he made a simple solution, avoid killing most of them by limiting his abilities. 

As soon as he noticed that the wave of Yorians was taken by surprise, he immediately used his Void Phase though it appears very slow.

The Mech Knights behind him followed with a trail as they headed toward the Celestial's location…

Bam!

The Celestial Being exploded with power and decimated the Toad King for the sixth time today. 

A blues core remained as it slow materialized… Based on the Celestial's words, it will only take about five seconds before the King could return to normal.

Nevertheless, it is more than enough for him… He reappeared near the core and activated his Magic Node… Aside from that, he also tried bringing him inside his Dimensional Storage Space!

Technically, the core isn't a living being so he should be able to take it with him… This plan just came into his mind a few seconds after the Celestial mentioned the core.

"Eh? Where did you hide it?"

The Celestial was confused as the blue core disappeared completely! He had tried incinerating it and even tried wrapping it with his Astral Energy but it had never been successful!

As the Celestial looked at Wallace, he realized that the young man was also surprised!

"It worked!"

Wallace celebrated as the Mech Knights' pilots following him were confused about what had just happened.
