YM778.TV Chapter 444 Third Gen
"Ugh… I knew it…" Vincent grunted as realized that the Celestials seem to have brought some trouble to their city.
There was no way that these Celestial Beings would run away from normal enemies. It means that the enemies this time are quite strong or the Celestials are just a bad match against them.
"Can you tell who dares to chase them?" Vincent immediately asked as he wore his Nightbane Robe and came out of his workshop.
He has to immediately oversee the situation to ensure that their city will survive this new disaster.
"I-I don\'t know… Wait… Ahh! It\'s a swarm of insects!"
"What? Alright! Open the gate and activate the barrier as soon as the Celestials are inside!" Vincent instructed as he hurried to reach the top of the city wall.
"They are too close to each other… The insects might enter the city before we can close the gate…"
"Just send all the Magicians who can use Fire Element… Hurry!" Vincent said as he knows that Artillery Guns or their Handguns weren\'t a good match against these insects.
Needless to say, the Celestial Beings might be in a trouble as well if they don\'t have Celestial Armors with them.
Calidia immediately made an announcement as the Magicians started heading to the southern gate. Since the Kayser Tower is making a fuss over a bunch of insects, they realized that this isn\'t a simple swarm but a deadly one.
Everyone immediately became wary as they watched the Mage Battalion move in haste. Some of them started returning to their houses and closing their windows just in case a bunch of insects managed to bypass their defense.
They weren\'t sure what kind of diseases they were carrying so they have to be careful.

"What\'s the problem this time?" Yulia sighed as she entered the command center to see the situation of the whole city.
She then saw Calidia and her team monitoring the surroundings of the city to ensure that they only have to worry about the swarm brought by the Celestials.
"So those are the insects… They appear like Scourge Hornets but… they\'re mutated?" Yulia muttered as she saw three of the monitoring crystals showing images of the insects.
"Yes… I\'m sure that the Fire Magicians can stop them…" Calidia replied as she showed 50 or so magicians readying their Fire Mana Arts.
"Hmm… That\'s normally the case. However, they look like they\'re made of metals. They\'ll probably need stronger fire elemental arts for that." Yulia commented but she can\'t really help in this situation as well.
She only knows basic fire Mana Arts after all.
"Oh? Is that Luna… and Rem?" Yulia finally recognized the returning Celestial Beings… Behind them were seven more Celestial Beings making a total of nine…
"Now that you said it… You\'re right!" Calidia said as she didn\'t focus her attention on them a while ago. She thought that it was all the Celestials that has left the city after recognizing Rem in front.
As she looked at the others behind her, they were indeed new faces. They are certainly beautiful like what a Celestial Being should be but they are definitely not at Tara\'s level.
"Miss Yulia, I think that Sir Vincent already noticed that something was off about these insects… He sent a message to Sir Yasin to operate the new vessels…" One of the operators of the Monitoring Crystals reported.
In front of her is the image of the shipyard opening up its gates.
"Eh? Are they functioning already?" Yulia asked in surprise as she looked at the crystal…
While the magicians are preparing their Mana Arts, five Flying Ships started coming out of the shipyard in the inner part of the city.
"It seems so… Right, I think I received a report about them a few days ago… I didn\'t think too much of it before." Calidia muttered as she swiftly checked the documents beside her. It didn\'t take that before she found what she was looking for and read them again.
"Incredible… According to this report, Vincent called these five the Third Generation Light Aircraft, Tempest 1."
"Third Generation? What are first and second generation though?" Yulia asked but she immediately thought of an answer.
Calidia was the same.
"I guess the first generation was the Flying Airship, those things that look like large flying boats. The second generation was most likely the Enhanced-Aircraft like Vermillion Hawk, it has a different shape with a little improvement in their engine…" She answered.
"That makes sense… I wonder what inspired Vincent in these aircraft…" Yulia muttered as she can\'t help but feel excited about this new advancement in Magic Technology.
These new aircraft also seem to be heavily equipped… No, it\'s just that their weapons can be easily seen and not hidden at all.
"I guess they have something that can stop the insects?"
"For sure…" Yulia muttered as her eyes didn\'t leave the crystal monitoring the aircraft…
She noticed that it is using a different propulsion system and it is definitely not similar to the Floating System that was developed by the Nexus Organization.
"I\'ll go outside to see them clearly…" Yulia said as she headed outside.
"Alright… Be careful… Just in case the insects entered, retreat inside the Tower immediately…"
"Got it!"
Yulia responded. As soon as she came out, she noticed that the Zemin Clan was also being mobilized. It seems that Vincent didn\'t think twice about using them during this situation.
Well, they certainly have to work if they want to stay here for a long time.
Clank!
As she was moving, she suddenly heard the gears of the southern gate working again… It seems that the Celestials are already reaching the city and the guards started closing the gate knowing that they can reach the city in time.
Soon, multiple fire Elemental Arts were thrown to burn the hornets that were following the Celestial Beings…
However, they didn\'t seem afraid… Although the outside seems like an inferno, the insects didn\'t seem to care as they just charged forward…
"Not good…" Everyone noticed that it wasn\'t easy to burn the insects. They seem to possess some level of resistance against fire…
Nevertheless, this should be the best element to use compared to wind or even water.
Whom~ Whom~
Suddenly, they heard the five Tempest I, hovering above the city…
Yulia watched them with bated breath as her interest in these aircraft grew larger…
As soon as the Celestial Beings entered the city, these vessels finally showed their might!
