Rebirth Of The Noble Mage Behind The Scenes-Chapter 226 - 1 Time Flies

According to the Magic World’s research on time, the flow rate of time is not fixed.

For instance, there are times when a minute might not consist of sixty seconds.

Many Great Mages racked their brains and experimented year after year, consuming countless resources and research funds, yet they could not figure out where those lost seconds went.

Thus, the Magic World could only explain this phenomenon with the relativity and fluctuation of space-time, and some even categorized it under Mysticism.

Under such circumstances, time quietly passed by half a year without anyone noticing.

Within the Yiter Kingdom Federation, the power shift in Leka Kingdom that caught the attention of the entire continent, had completely concluded.

As Anvis knew from his past life, by the end of the third month, the Sixth Prince, Rock Leka, returned from Black Crow City at the border of Leka Kingdom, bringing with him a large number of elite Magic-guided Mechanized Units.

The day before the Sixth Prince’s troops arrived at the Royal Capital, the Eldest Prince and the Second Prince were only then informed of the news.

Due to the geographical location of Black Crow City, the Kingdom Garrison Army led by the Eldest Prince was sandwiched right between the forces of the Sixth Prince and those of the Second Prince occupying the Royal Capital.

Since all their scouts were eliminated and the Mid Rank Prophecy Skills of several prophets within the army were countered, the Eldest Prince temporarily couldn’t ascertain the true strength of the Sixth Prince’s army.

However, to avoid being ambushed from both sides, he still chose to relocate overnight, unwilling to casually deplete his forces against the Sixth Prince and thereby benefiting the Second Prince.

The location of the Royal Capital was fixed; he could leave anytime, but the Second Prince certainly couldn’t. He could let the Sixth Prince and the Second Prince fight like dogs and observe the situation first.

But what nobody expected was that the Sixth Prince directly split his forces and pushed through both ways.

No matter whether it was the Second Prince defending the city with the Royal Capital’s Protective Arrays or the Eldest Prince, who controlled most of the Kingdom’s Garrison Army, they were almost like children without the ability to fight back in front of the Sixth Prince’s elite Mechanical Army.

Five hundred Sixth Rank Mechanical Knight Commanders, one thousand five hundred Fourth Rank Mechanical Knights, two hundred Sixth Rank Mechanical Phantom Hunters, eight hundred Fourth Rank Mechanical Archers, five hundred elite experimental units of various models.

In the sky, for the first time, there appeared a three-dimensional combat array with the Mechanical Floating Fortress at its core, surrounded by Mechanical Flying Dragons, Death Bombers, Sky Knights, and various experimental Mechanical units for protection!

Apart from the Floating Fortress, the operators of these Magic-guided Mechanical bodies were mostly Second or Third Rank, with none exceeding the Third Rank. Yet, all of them were able to exhibit the speed and destructive power corresponding to the Tiers of the Mechanical units!

It’s important to note that Leka Kingdom’s original Kingdom’s Garrison Army mostly consisted of Third Rank Professionals. Fourth Ranks were small elite units with distinct titles, and Sixth Ranks were only reachable by high-ranking officers.

In terms of the air force, there were only two hundred Fourth and Fifth Rank Two-legged Flying Dragon Knights, with only five Sixth Rank Griffin Knights.

The numbers of the high-rank units on both sides were completely disproportionate.

Perhaps in one-on-one combat, a normal professional could easily handle two Mechanical warriors. But in the chaos of battle, this strength gap was greatly narrowed, with the only important Attribute being destructive power.

Thus, under this era-defining assault by the troops, the two princes couldn’t even hold out for a day.

The Eldest Prince received special attention and was obliterated in a concentrated small-scale bombardment.

The Royal Capital’s Defense Arrays, under a single strike of pseudo Superposition Magic from the Floating Fortress, depleted 78% of their energy reserves, causing early aging Magic Circuits to overload and malfunction.

The nobles of the Royal Capitallaunched another political coup, seized control of the Second Prince who was attempting to flee secretly, and then shut down the Royal Capital’s Defense Arrays, leaving the city to pledge allegiance to the Sixth Prince.

Thus, Cuijing Palace welcomed its final master, marking the end of several months of power transition in Leka Kingdom with a definitive stop.

.........

In this coup, the entire continent witnessed the astonishing combat power unleashed by large quantities of Mechanical Army.

However, Anvis, who knew more insider information, saw even more details.

Firstly, it was the mysterious silver-haired Prophetess girl who accompanied the Sixth Prince of Leka throughout.

Although she did not appear very noticeable, always wandering around Prince Rock with a hood on, she could only be described as unfathomably deep.

During her time as a Mid Ranked Prophetess, she was able to counter all the Prophets under the Eldest Prince and Second Prince with her own strength.

After the change in Leka had completely concluded, she advanced to become a High Ranked Prophetess, a rarity throughout the continent, by leveraging the massive amount of feedback from fate she received.

Following the normal development of a hero’s biography, the Prince and the young Prophetess were supposed to develop feelings for each other and marry her as the Queen after his ascension, making her the master of the harem.

But the reality was that the young Prophetess’s goal had always been solely linked to the fate feedback of the Sixth Prince of Leka.

Although not mentioned in the intelligence, Anvis knew she was a student of one of the three Councilmen of the Magic Council, the [Stargazer] Brents.

Furthermore, based on the Floating Fortress structural intelligence returned by the family intelligence agency, Anvis could definitively figure out that the manufacturing technology of that Floating Fortress was still very primitive.

On it, one could see features of Magic-guided Mechanical and Alchemy, meaning it was a patched product, not a purely mechanical creation.

Compared to the Mechanical Fortresses of the later peak era, the one unveiled now was more akin to a floating Mage Tower.

The so-called Superposition Magic was not an attack from Mechanical weapons, but cast through chanting by several Sixth Rank Mages, using the Elemental Pool and a large Harmonization Array atop the Floating Fortress...

As it stands, even the Magic Council, which first promoted the concept of Magic-guided Mechanical, is still in an exploratory phase in the development of mechanical technology.

However, once they truly witnessed the massive advantages of Mechanical constructs, major powers further increased their emphasis on Magic-guided Mechanical, and magical research projects related to it received more resources.

Thus, the prelude to the mechanical revolution of the continent was officially started.

.........

Compared to others, Anvis had a significant advantage in the development of Mechanical constructs.

What limited the advancement of Mechanical constructs was more the theoretical knowledge.

Although the young Anvis before rebirth did not care much about Mechanical affairs, he still remembered many already matured Mechanical knowledge.

Taking advantage of this trend, the two mechanical factories under his name expanded again, already approaching the scale of large Mechanical Factories.

Currently, Anvis has also officially become a Mid Ranked Prophetess.

Probably because he forcibly detonated the underwater city to prevent the return of the Old Gods, and incidentally also captured the divine incarnation with the Duke.

When his journey on the island half a year ago finally ended, and he returned to the continent using the Teleportation Array, he directly received thousands of units of fate feedback.
