Chapter 943: Interrogated

From above the tower and using his spirit reading, Emery could tell that the whole city had been newly created in days.

Tall metallic walls, gates and hundreds of sturdy buildings were created centered on the transport. It was carefully crafted in order to prepare for any siege, which was why, despite the tens of thousands of Abyss creatures attacking the wall, there was no chaos in the city at all.

With spirit reading, Emery also found another characteristic of the base that he found particularly interesting.

It was the fact it was magically protected by multiple runes placed all around the walls that created some type of energy barrier. Emery believed it should have cost lots of spirit stones to make and expert in rune formation.

While Emery looked deep into the rune formation he had a sudden realization of a particular signature of the expert. He noticed something that reminded him of one of the experts he knew. At the same time, he saw the same person just arriving at the tower.

It was Abrafo, the dark skin acolyte, an earth formation expert that ganged up on him with Bradley outside his spirit cave.

The man saw Emery and only glanced at him without expression. Instead, he walked toward Jinkan and then informed her of a message.

"Alright, the room is ready. Magus enforcer, please follow me, Let's discuss the matter inside," Jinkan said to the group.

Along with the 30 survivors of the bloodbath, there were also 5 magus who had just arrived with their ship at the tower.

The leader was a full moon peak magus, while the other 4 squad members were all Halfmoon magus. All of them came in signature gray uniforms, which reminded Emery of the late magus Leon and his team.

Now that everyone had already entered the room, the captain of the enforcer began to introduce himself. He was known as Magus Hyouka, a calm-looking man who wore a headband that covered a portion of his dark hair.

"I have heard the report from the magus academy and have seen some of the footage. It was such a disaster. From here on I will be in charge of taking care of the matter."

The magus calmly grabbed a cube and checked on some data.

"All the acolytes can just continue with their current mission, you just have a little over one day left, return to all your squads," the enforcer captain announced.

Following that, the enforcer told everyone to leave with the exception of Magus Bellaine plus the commander and vice commander of each platoon. This meant Emery, Zach, Vida, Eesho, and Jinkan were required to stay.

The individuals mentioned remained on their positions without raising any questions.

Apparently, Emery and the others stayed in order to witness how the enforcer interrogated Magus Bellaine about the events that led up to the disaster.

"Magus Bellaine you may now tell us all you know!" The enforcer captain remarked in a slightly raised tone. At the moment, the way he stared at the female magus looked more serious than before.

The female magus Bellaine spilled about how they were assigned to observe the Andora's planet lifeform 20 years ago for the Ileas faction and occasionally to give reports for any anomaly that occurred since that time.

However, 2 years ago commander Raynor's brother died on the frontline and, knowing the characteristics of the lifeform and its compatibility with him, he hoped to borrow the wisp cosmic power to push him into the grand magus level and revive his brother at the same time.

Hence, that was the reason why the commander planted the artifact inside the sacred tree last year.

Only Kenneth and Bellaine knew of such a matter and decided to support the commander's actions, despite the risk of being punished by the alliance. To borrow its power and then return it to the faction later.

However, never in their mind did their secret plan suddenly become endangered with the sudden decision to make the planet as a magus academy mid test ground.

Hearing the confession from the female magus, Magus Hyouka now had a better understanding of the matter.

"The primordial wisp has been forced, absorbed and contained into an artifact for one year, which makes it unstable. No wonder there was a fluctuation in the calamity level." The magus captain explained.

The magus captain then had a discussion with his team for a while, before coming to the decision to try to tame the creature.

The captain also explained that, if the lifeform wasn't stopped as quickly as possible, the power of the planet would be drained. Not only would that make the creature much more powerful, but it also could lead the Andora planet total destruction.

The magus looked toward all the acolytes, "I will take care of this matter now, meanwhile you all can return to evacuate as many survivors as possible. You should all hear from me in a few hours."

After giving such an order to the acolytes, Captain Hyouka ended the meeting and was about to leave, but suddenly Jinkan stopped him.

"My apology captain. I need to confirm, while you're leaving, who will be in charge of us? Certainly you will not let us follow the convicted magus, won't you?" Jinkan said, while glancing at the female magus that was just interrogated.

Jinkan thought that magus Bellaine could not be trusted and should not be given any authority at all.

The magus captain gave it a second thought before agreeing to Jinkan's suggestion. A good command structure needed to be established, especially during such a crisis.

He then quickly checked on the file to see who would be the most qualified candidate for the position.

Jinkan quickly interrupted, "There is no need to think captain. Eesho here is the highest rank in the privilege acolytes and also the commander of the first platoon. There is no one more qualified than him," she said with a little chuckle.

Magus Hyoukai, on the other hand, did not share the sentiment. After briefly look through the files, he actually found something interesting within the data.

He surprisingly fixed his gaze at Emery.

"You are Emery Ambrose, the [Medal of Distinguished Valor] speaks of your quality. Therefore while I am gone, you're the chief commander in charge."

Everyone in the room was stunned for a split second, including Emery. Nonetheless, that was the final decision. After giving out his order, the magus headed out with his team.
