Chapter 572: 184. Metal Ancestor_4
Colin looked dejected, just standing there, grieving for the fate of the Metal Branch.
Paredes, however, announced the news that staggered everyone on board.
“Everyone leaves this magic ship, hide in the nearby sea areas. A star fleet composed of fifty extraterrestrial spacecraft is approaching our world, and it is targeting this magic ship beneath our feet. This news is absolutely true; it’s from the Star Filtering Net.”
“Fifty extraterrestrial spacecraft!?”
“A star fleet?!”
The whole scene exploded into chaos.
Paredes repeated himself in an incontrovertible voice:
“Don’t panic, listen to the orders. Including myself, everyone leaves the magic ship now. Miss Selena Williams has prepared to receive us.”
Selena Williams is the Nine-Circles Deep Sea Witch who summoned the emergency spaceship.
Noland Lee learned her name from Bella in casual conversation. Coincidentally, Selena is also the Deputy Dean of the Deep-sea Branch, which is located right in the middle of the Core Circle of the Suman Archipelago.
In a sense, Noland Lee had bumped into his future fellow wizard neighbor in the Blackfold Sea, thousands of kilometers away from Suman Archipelago.
Upon receiving Paredes’ instructions, the group didn’t dare to delay, and they promptly entered flight status.
On the way, Paredes revealed the following arrangements to everyone.
The Ulnas Circle intended to make a daring move.
A ruthless one indeed.
The star fleet from Deep Space United Mining was asking for trouble in this world, weren’t they?
Well, the Ulnas Circle was planning a “seize and slaughter” operation. Ulnas Circle decided to let the star fleet in the Inner Cosmos voluntarily. Once the fleet began to move the magic ship, they would immediately close the Outer Space Gap of Star Filtering Net, trapping the star fleet in the Inner Cosmos.
No matter what, they were fighting on their home ground, there was no need for the wizards of this world to back down.
In order to face the upcoming battle, Paredes needed to rally reinforcements.
He landed on the emergency spaceship with the Enforcement Wizards.
After this ship sailed into the sea area next to the magic ship, he lifted the Golden Magic Wand high into the air and opened a portal to the Pure Light Court.
The transition from day to night in the sky momentarily presented a brief daytime scene. The golden-white sun hung high in the sky, sprinkling a large number of shiny golden points of light on the pitch-black sea surface.
An astounding thousand points of light appeared on the surface of the Blackfold Sea!
Each point of light represented a combat wizard that had come to lend their aid.
Faced with this thrilling pre-war scene, Noland Lee didn’t forget to release the Deconstruction Technique to examine the condition of these combat wizards.
The majority of the combat wizards were from the Pure Light Court and Hotams, the rest were from various wizard forces.
Notably, there would be no Metal Series Wizards in the imminent battle. The Eight-Circle Metal Wizard Colin, left directly through the portal after it was opened. Among the wizards who came to aid, none were from the Metal Series.
The teleportation work ended quickly, and the daytime scene in the sky above the Blackfold Sea turned to dark night.
After the combat wizards teleported to their destination, they cast invisibility spells of all kinds, merging indistinguishably with the surrounding dark environment.
The emergency spaceship where Noland Lee is located was wrapped in pure magical water by Selena. After the water on the surface of the magical water shimmered a few times, it made the entire ship invisible.
Thus, on the entire surface of the Blackfold Sea, only the magic ship was left drifting alone.
The emergency spaceship sailed further away with all its passengers.
There were a large amount of lower-level superhumans and ordinary people without superhuman abilities on the ship. The upcoming battle could potentially affect sea areas within a hundred kilometer radius.
They needed to be at least thirty to forty kilometers away from the sea area where the magic ship was located, to ensure the passengers on the emergency spaceship would not be affected.
Paredes and other wizard enforcers did not leave the ship. They became the guardians of the ship and were now discussing plans in the cockpit.
Noland Lee and Bella, along with other wizards of third-ring strength, were assigned to maintain order throughout the cabins of the ship.
Their job was to stay on duty in the cabins, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.
Noland Lee was assigned to the stern of the middle deck.
