479: Ending the Invasion ( 2 )

Ending the Invasion ( 2 )

[ Affirmative. ] 

Avalon replied to Wallace's instructions. 

Wallace then saw Avalon's terminal opening a small hatch and sending out a robotic spider. The spider then continued moving to the nearest station as it connected to the Flagship's Database…

As for the A.I. guarding it, Avalon can only try and do its best.

Wallace has no way to help his A.I. at this point. 

He left Avalon to deal with it as he used his Void Phase to continue eliminating everyone here on the spaceship…

Once he did this, he would be able to help the Magicians outside.

'Hmm? What's that?' Wallace noticed something.

'Tsk! I need to be faster…'

He realized that several battle stations within the Flagship is preparing something. 

If he did not use his Divine Sense just now, he would probably be clueless about this until they completed whatever they are doing.

Apparently, he sensed that several soldiers are arranging several escape capsules within the Flagship. They are even located in different parts of the huge Flagship which is quite troublesome to deal with.

The capsules don't seem to contain any life at all but whatever it is, he can't just let them do as they please!

"Avalon… Just in case, order the Moon Base to intercept that…" Wallace ordered. He also wanted to order some people outside but he knows that they aren't in a good position too.

In the end, he had to rely on the Moon Base's manpower.

[ Affirmative. ] 

Wallace no longer hesitated as he appeared in front of the capsule that was about to be launched. One of the hatches specifically for this vessel has already opened and made a path for it.

However, before it could escape, Wallace destroyed everything with his Lightning Break and Mana Explosion…

He did it to five more capsules with his Void Phase but he ultimately failed to stop all of them…

"Three escaped… Those things are fast!"

Wallace's Aeon Guardian is already over including his Dual Burst…

He felt some tiredness in his body as he looked at the vessels that disappeared in the sky.

He wanted to use his Void Phase but with the current distance, he would need a longer time to cast and that's already too late. 

"What are those things?" 

[ No available data. ]

[ Cracking the Flagship's A.I. is still in progress. ] 

"I understand… Just keep trying." Wallace said as he kneeled on the floor to take a breather. Even though his mana and Astral Energy are abundant, the stress in his body has already accumulated. 

If he didn't take a break, he might destroy himself instead. It would be terrible to die in his own carelessness after all.

Anyway, the Flagship is basically not going anywhere without their prince. He knows that the Flagship is tied with the Imperial Prince. The spaceship that came with the Prince has no right to return to the Empire without him.

It is punishable by death. They have to live with him or die together with him. 

Wallace used his Divine Sense to see the condition of the Prince…

Surprisingly, the Celestial Being has weakened a lot for some reason!

On the other hand, the Prince had actually healed himself!

"Wait… He was dying just a moment ago… What's going on?"

Wallace perked up as soon as he noticed what's going on. He thought that the victory was already in the bag. But there was something like this?

He immediately used his Void Phase to arrive on top of the Flagship near a hadron cannon.

The prince looked terrible but he was brimming with life. 

On the other hand, the Celestial Being was still the same Blue Figure but with a dimmer radiance. Wallace can also feel that the Celestial's presence had somehow weakened.

This is not something he was used to seeing!

A Celestial Being is always at the top of the food chain!

'What's going on, Sir Celestial?'

Wallace decided to ask.

'Hmm… He has some kind of magic that can absorb energy. It's interesting…'

'Absorbing energy? Where did that come from?' Wallace was shocked as he had never heard something like this before. 

"Avalon, Veda… Do you know anything about the Imperial Family's power to absorb energy?"

[ No idea. I've never encountered such an ability before. ] 

[ Negative. ] 

Veda and Avalon immediately replied. Wallace frowned as he has no idea how to deal with this situation.

"If that's true, he's a difficult opponent indeed. However, I think that he has to fulfill certain conditions before he can perform it." Wallace advised the Celestial.

He made such a conclusion since he should've died when he faced the prince if he used that same technique on him. 

If the Celestial has no way to resist this energy drain, Wallace should also be incapable of doing anything against it.

Since the Prince didn't cast it to him, it only means that before he could use this energy absorption technique, there must be some kind of condition he needed to complete. 

'There's no need to be concerned. I'll let him take as much as he wants…' The Celestial confidently said as he burst with unimaginable power!

The surrounding area started heating up and Astral Energy was accumulating in his body as if the world is giving power to him!

It was such an incredible sight!

The Magicians, including the Aliens on the Empire's side, couldn't help but take notice of this. The power is just too disturbing as they could feel the changes on the battlefield!

Wallace looked at the Imperial Prince to see his reaction…

However, instead of being scared, the Prince looked ecstatic as he approached the Celestial and placed his recovered four arms on the Celestial's body!

"Die!"

The Prince shouted as he activated his energy absorption technique… Wallace indeed realized how the prince started getting powerful while the Celestial's Energy started diminishing at an alarming rate!

'This…' Wallace doesn't know whether he should follow the Celestial's words or not.  0

It's not that he does not trust the Celestial Being but none of them should have encountered this kind of power at all.

However, as if the Celestial noticed his hesitation, he spoke to Wallace again.

'This is his final struggle... Let him be.'
