My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—-Chapter 521 An Armored Threat

The current situation could only be compared to a national emergency as Magnus Carter gathered all his Disciples, briefing them about the dimensional break that had just begun. He knew that they were running out of time and that only four people were desperately trying to halt the advance of the monsters that came out of the dimension break.

"Diablos?" Finana knew the correspondent meaning of the word but she had no idea why Magnus Carter called them like that. In any case, this was no time to ask questions so Finana put her thoughts back in her mind while she listened to their Manager.

"A dimension break? No wonder I felt a bit weird."

"Yeah, me too. I thought I was the only one who felt the sudden influx of energy."

"As for me, I thought it was Horatius's group having fun or something."

"This wasn't the first time, in any case... I hope there would be fewer casualties this time."

When Magnus Carter told everyone about the details of the dimension break, some of them felt a little anxious since this wasn't the first time it happened. Besides, the last time a dimension break happened, a number of them died. Now a threat of another dimension break was right in front of them and they had to once again deal with it.

A dimension break was actually a normal occurrence when it came to the dimensions owned by Managers. Most of the time, this dimension break was to kidnap Disciples and learn the knowledge passed to them from their respective managers. Even with Bucky Barnes, dimension breaks in his dimension happen quite often.

It's just that he had no Disciples in his dimension so the invaders wouldn't have anyone to kidnap. Adding to that, they'd have to defeat Bucky Barnes before they could gain any knowledge from him. Even if they wanted to steal something in his dimension, he had it carefully guarded so there was no chance.

Adding to that, if there came a time when the dimension break would be too much for him, Bucky Barnes had countermeasures and precautions in place. On the off-chance that his dimension gets deleted, he also had a plan to transfer his dimension someplace else.

Then again, Bucky Barnes wasn't one of the famous Managers so he wasn't targeted by stronger invasions.

Magnus Carter was a different topic though. After all, he was deemed to be the strongest Manager out there. That's why a dimension break was a regular occurrence in his dimension. He usually deals with them easily, but the previous one was so formidable that some of his Disciples died while trying to fend off the invaders.

Right now, another threat of a dimension break was presented to him. This time, Magnus Carter pledged that not a single Disciple of his would be kidnapped or killed.

"..."

"Our dimension is on the verge of being invaded. Moreover, the attackers aren't just ordinary attackers... they are diablos, a powerful species who are both proficient in everything. Not only are they physically formidable, they boast great defense, and even use magic with great command. They're truly the all-rounders among the dimensions."

"But you're my Disciples. I'm sure that any of you would be able to fight head-to-head with a diablo. With that said, I'll be giving you a minute to prepare, and then we're heading back to the residence. At the moment, Horatius and his team during the second test cavalry test are engaging the diablos. We have to get there as soon as possible to assist them."

Receiving a couple of nods from his Disciples, Magnus then extended his hand and finally started the timer. Everyone was given a minute— which was a short time, but to Finana, it already felt like an eternity.

A minute later, the Disciples were already gathered around, fully prepared to combat the invasion. Some of them wore their best armor and equipped their best weapons— or rather, a great number of them did. If they weren't careful, they wouldn't just lose points from Magnus. They might even lose their lives fighting... or worse, they might get kidnapped.

"All right, we're going in. Follow me." Magnus Carter wore a grim expression on his face as he took the lead. It was time for them to head into camp and assist Horatius and the others.

Now that the entire force was mobilized, Magnus Carter could finally rush headlong into the scene and save his Disciples who were robbed of their free time. A smile briefly appeared on his face when he realized that the break they gave him was useless. 'I guess I should give them another break later on.. wait, Lucy and Satoshi can't avail it though since they're only here for a day. Sigh~'

BAM!

BAM!

The Disciple had no idea whether they should stand their ground or simply tuck their tail and run when they saw the diablos. Of course, they were vaguely aware of their strength since Magnus Carter gave them an overall description of the invaders. However, now that they were directly in front of them, the sight reduced them to panic.

"What those are the invaders?"

"How could we possibly deal with those?"

"Everything... everything's beyond 9000!"

To be fair, the Disciples were powerful enough as it is, but most of them specialize in only one thing, offense, for example. But upon seeing the diablos, they could tell that they were capable of doing anything and were proficient at it.

"Don't lose spirit! Look, Horatius, Satoshi, and the others are doing their best to hold them back. They need our help." Magnus Carter sternly commented, cutting off his Disciples' comments before they dug an even deeper hole in their doubtful mindset.

Fortunately, his firm assurance gave a boost to their morale, and they all gulped as they made up their minds.

"Everyone!!!" Finana screamed at the top if her lungs as half of her body transformed into water and she glided towards them. "I'm back! I brought everyone."

As soon as she said that, a wave of relief came crashing down on her and she started crying. More than anything, she was just glad that everyone was all right. The invaders were pretty strong, and since there were only four of them holding the horde off, Finana thought for a second that one or more of them would die by the time she came back.

Fwoosh~!

Satoshi had to grab her and princess-carry her to safety when one of the diablos slammed its fist on the ground. "Oi~ save your tears for later when we're already done. In any case, thank you for bringing them with you. We owe you one." Flashing a smile, Satoshi set Finana down and patted her on the head.

Her ears twitched as her visage reddened a little bit. Finally getting back to her senses, she nodded her head at Satoshi before going into the fight. "You owe me one, right? We'll save that for later!" Finana waved her hand as she shot pressurized water on the ground, sending her flying into one of the diablos.

"What did she mean by that?" Satoshi asked, returning to his position of assisting Amy.

"Everybody, charge!" Magnus said. 𝚋𝚎𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖ𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝

...

The fight with the diablos got even fiercer when Magnus Carter and the rest of the Disciples joined in. There wasn't exactly a battle formation or battle plan for anyone so anything goes. Instead of taking the lead, Magnus Carter opted to assist everyone while they dealt with the diablos.

For some reason, the Disciples were doing pretty well. It's as if they completely overestimated the diablos. One by one, the diablos fell, and they were steadily getting pushed back.

Then again, the Disciples had the numbers on their side. But that didn't cancel out the fact that the diablos had the skills on their end. If it weren't for Magnus Carter and Satoshi assisting and buffing everyone to no end, they wouldn't stand a chance.

It didn't take long before they completely pushed off the invaders, killing some of them in the process. However, even after doing that, the dimension break still didn't disappear.

Fwooosh~!

Before anyone could react, a blast of energy came out of the dimension break, and an armored being stepped out of it. Compared to the diablos, this one was more colossal than any of them, and he exuded an overwhelming aura. Even Magnus Carter felt threatened by it.

Looking around, the armored being seemed to be curious about something. It didn't attack, onor did it show any animosity towards the group. The way it acted was certainly weird, considering that this being might be the one behind the dimension break.

"So this is what the strongest dimension amounts to, huh? I thought it would pose a challenge, but clearly not." With a sigh, the armored being shrugged as it let out another exhale of disappointment. Then it turned around and headed back to the dimension break with nothing but a wave of its hand as a farewell.

"We'll come back soon enough. I guess it would be a pretty easy invasion." The armored being snickered.
