"I guess all the weapons given to all of you weren't wasted, huh…" Yulia said with a smile while looking at the Mage Battalion that their Vera City has created over the past two years.
The commander of this Battalion was none other than her, a Grand Magus that has mastered the four Tiers of her Darkness Mystic Eyes.
"Haha! We have to thank Sir Vincent for that… Most of our items are Epic Rank and I even have this Pseudo-Legendary Sword… Cutting those sea creatures is as easy as cutting weeds!" Ross replied with a big grin on his face as the others followed with a laugh.
Lar's five-man team is no more as the other four already have teams on their own that they need to lead.
Anyway, their battalion was actually expecting huge trouble here and was very worried when they first arrived. They heard that the Sea Creatures' invasion would normally last for two to three months but considering how they could easily win against them, they believe that even if they extend their invasion, these sea creatures wouldn't be able to win against their Mage Battalion.
Well, it's probably better to say that they are Knights and Magicians Battalion but since all of them were decent Mana Practitioners as well, they were just called a Mage Battalion.
As everyone was celebrating in their temporary headquarters, someone from the communications team approached Yulia and Severin and reported the news they have gotten.
They learned that Vincent is now in seclusion and wouldn't be contacted for a while. They also learned about the siege that was easily taken care of by their Kayser Tower and they even captured the Celestials working for the enemies. Then, Vincent somehow brainwashed them and turned to their side…
This is such a piece of incredible news but Yulia and Severin only smiled at this as they can no longer be too surprised by what Vincent can do nowadays.
He's completely different from when he was still in the Tudor Kingdom…
In addition to this, there is another piece of information that was passed over to her and it's about Lola calling for her. Apparently, she asked Yulia and Severin to meet the captured sea creature in the interrogation room.
The two immediately agreed with this as they were also curious about this creature.
Why was this one creature kept alive and can even be interrogated?
During the battle before, they already realized that although these creatures were quite intelligent, they are not capable of speaking the human language.
If that's the case, how was she planning to interrogate this sea creature?
With these questions in their mind, Yulia and Severin headed toward the interrogation room.
'This sea creature was captured even before our forces arrived. I heard that Vincent's senior sister used a very special Formation Art to separate this being from its guards… I wonder what she was planning to show us this time…' Severin mused as he looked at the building.
As a researcher, he was obviously very curious about this species and he wanted to study them if possible. However, given the situation, he has to give up on it as he can't have leisure time here.
They met a couple of guards outside and led them inside a room where Lola was waiting for them.
"Yulia, Severin… You guys are probably busy but I think that you need to know what's our situation before another wave of sea creatures arrives…" Lola said bluntly after seeing them enter.
"Hmm… So it seems that this invasion isn't just a normal event, huh…"
They have already met before so they felt quite comfortable with each other's presence. Lola is also together with two robust female guards who seemed to be Grand Knights based on their energy fluctuations and looked very serious.
Behind these three was a transparent glass window where they could see the humanoid sea creature on the other side, chained and trapped by a Mana Formation.
It is quite bigger than the other sea creatures almost similar to a Barbarian's physique.
However, although they were human-like, it only refers to their single head, two arms, a torso, and two legs… They were still completely sea creatures with their fish scales, fins, eyes, gills, and other non-human-like on their bodies. They don't even have noses…
"This one is already trapped in your Formation Art but you're still using that Suppressive Molten Chain to bind him…" Severin muttered after assessing the condition of the sea creature.
"Well, if I didn't do this, that creature will be able to slowly corrode the Formation Art I built… and if I only bind it with that chain, it can then release a toxic gas that would kill all of us. This one is completely different from the sea creatures or cannon fodders a while ago."
Lola explained as the two realized that this sea creature is indeed very dangerous and also special. The ones they massacred a while ago only rely on their physical strength and simple techniques like Water Bullets to fight them. This technique can be easily defended using their normal Mana Body Protection and didn't pose too much threat to them unless they were attacked by the same Water Bullet hundreds of times.
"This creature sound very dangerous. It's a good thing you managed to catch it before it created a huge problem." Yulia muttered as she looked at the sea creature behind them.
"That's right… This information came from the other islands that have been attacked before... Anyway, I called you here to let you know what we've discovered after interrogating this creature." Lola said as her face showed signs of worry.
Apparently, this sea creature may not be able to speak their language but high-level telepathy allows them to hear his thoughts and communicate with each other.
After they tortured this creature, they were able to learn that this sudden invasion was actually planned by a human organization that everyone was aware of!
Furthermore, they weren't just planning to destroy this city but to occupy the land! The ones that were sent today and the previous invasion attempts were only to grasp the current strength of the Magicians to this date.
Considering that there were countless of them under the sea, even the death of a hundred thousand of them wasn't a big deal at all.
"This is planned by a human organization? Which one?" Yulia asked with a frown.
"It is the Star Garden Peak…"
Lola answered with a sigh.
