Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Nerissa noticed the flaw on the last magic item but it wasn\'t important since the enemies have become more vulnerable to the others\' attacks.

Even if the Celestial was suffering from her own Magic Tool, her companions were still there doing more damage to the enemies.

\'Well, all their Magic Tools\' abilities weren\'t too scary if faced alone. However, if they\'re combined with the others and the target can\'t move, it\'s definitely scary…\'

Nerissa thought as she observes the battle. If the members of the Creed weren\'t trapped inside the Formation Arts that Vincent had set up, they would certainly have the ability to dodge the attacks or create a strong defense…

Unfortunately for them, they were destined to die.

"Leave the leader alive!" Vincent immediately shouted.

The Celestials nodded in acknowledgment and stopped attacking as soon as everyone had collapsed in the trap… The leader was only exhausted and emptied his energy…

They marveled at the sight since they were quite new to this kind of battle. Normally, they would charge with their weapons and rely on their physical strength and Celestial Energy to win every battle.

With their speed and power, they could win almost every battle they faced.

However, it was completely different right now… They took advantage of the Formation Art and used the Magic Tools that can be activated using their Celestial Energy!

There aren\'t many Magic Tools that can be triggered with Celestial Energy after all. They would normally require a high amount of durability which is quite difficult to find from low-grade Magic Tools.

Clink….

At this point, Vincent pulled out the Subordination Impulse Potion from his inventory and gave it to Celestials 85.

"Make the leader drink this potion…"

"Got it…"

The Celestial didn\'t ask unnecessary questions as she acted immediately.

After confirming that the four others were dead, she assisted the disoriented middle-aged man to drink the potion.

It provided a weak healing effect enough to make the middle-aged man wake up. This time, however, the light in his eyes was quite different.

Seeing that everything went well, Vincent finally approached them.

"Tell us your name and identity including your reason for coming here…" Vincent commanded.

"I\'m Belch, the 13th Squad Leader. We\'ve come here to complete the mission given by the Creed. It is to support Joran\'s mission…" The middle-aged man answered without any hint of emotions.

This time, Celestial 85 realized that she just fed the man some kind of truth serum. The other three realized this as well and couldn\'t help but give Vincent a profound look. They weren\'t new to this type of serum but they didn\'t expect that Vincent would readily prepare this one.

This young man was becoming more and more mysterious.

Vincent didn\'t care about their reactions as he asked again.

"Do you know about Joran\'s mission?"

"No, we aren\'t allowed to know it. I\'m only a Squad Leader that has never seen the main branch."

"Fine… Tell us how many squads were left in this region?"

"The last time I checked, there are still six active squads and a few survivors from others squads. There should be less than ten of these survivors."

"Hmmm… Six squads and remnant survivors… The Sage must know about this. The members of the Creed might escape once they realized that something happened to Joran." Vincent muttered as soon as he heard Belch\'s report.

"Don\'t worry about that… We may not be using Communication Crystals but we have a method to communicate with other people from afar." Nerissa said while patting her chest.

"Can you do it now?"

"Ehem… I can only speak to Sage Vivian once she contacted me. It has an hour of cooldown… so she\'ll be contacting me again in half an hour."

Vincent wasn\'t too interested in how they communicated so he only nodded and continued to interrogate Belch…

Apparently, two more squads were expected to arrive here after two hours… His squad was tasked to set up a formation art to hide the Dungeon Portal from Sky Vision and Divination.

\'Oh?\' Vincent started digging for more information

This time, he learned that the Creed was aware of the Sage\'s abilities.

They know that one of the Star Garden Peak\'s Sages can use a technique that can observe places from afar using some sort of Magic Artifact and divination techniques.

With that in mind, they have brought anti-divination artifacts, traceless magic tools, and an Illusion Sight formation core…

Unfortunately for them, they were too late to arrive and were still defeated by Vincent\'s team.

"Phoebe… Do you know if Phoebe will come as well?" Vincent said after being reminded.

"Yes…"

Vincent\'s eyes lit up after hearing this. It was the Apostle of Eiqehin after all.

"How strong is she?"

This question attracted everyone\'s attention. They all wanted to know the strength of a deity\'s Apostle.

Belch could only shake his head as he can\'t answer the question. He had never seen her fight seriously before.

"I can only say that she can kill me from a 100-meter distance using her special ability in a single breath. She had done it to one of the previous Squad Leaders and I witnessed it. That squad leader is as strong or maybe stronger than me."

Vincent frowned after hearing this.

\'She was that strong? Perhaps it was only a trick?\' Vincent thought.

Within one hundred meters, he could sense Mana Fluctuations without straining his mind. He could exceed that distance when he maximizes his circulation of Pseudo-Celestial Energy and put a hundred percent of his focus on it. However, sensing is different than killing…

Right now, aside from his Rifle and Astral Night Dagger, he doesn\'t have any killing move at that distance…

Although he has plenty of Magic Tools in his inventory, they were normally swords and staff which are suited for close combat… Even the skills that he was getting from his Transcendence Skill don\'t have a very long-range ability as seen from the skills that Celestial 85 and the others used.

They had to get closer by about 10 to 15 meters before they can be affected by their weapon\'s skills.

Vincent sighed after realizing how tricky Phoebe can be but he didn\'t give up… He looked at Nerissa and smiled at her…

"We\'ll have to rely on your Automatons then…"
