The Walpurgis Royal Academy of Mechanical Engineering had two hundred years of tradition, and it was a self-governing territory. It was like a strong fortress. Not only was it surrounded by tall walls, but it was also guarded by as many as seven teams of guards. Every professor was a powerful expert in mechanical magic, and the students were carefully selected elites from all over the world. Just thinking about it, it was obvious how powerful the academy was.
Furthermore, this year was the Year of Demonic Erosion, which meant that the quadrennial Night Assembly would be held. Therefore, from legendary antique mannequins to the latest mecha bodies produced by various workshops, high-performance automatons were all gathered here. With the control of outstanding Puppeteers, the power that could be exerted was definitely not inferior to that of a country's Mecha Division.
Not to mention, the strongest magician of the 19th century was here.
Against such a force, even a large country would not dare to act rashly.
Thus, who could have imagined it?
Such an academy had easily fallen into enemy hands today.
"Laaaaa!"
When the sharp sound pressure turned into sound waves that reverberated in all directions and enveloped the entire academy, nearly 90% of the automatons in the academy lost control in an instant.
"Wait!"
"What's going on …!?"
"Stop!"
"Come back!"
"Ahhhhh …!"
The automatons that were originally walking around the academy with their automatons, talking and laughing with each other, doing their own things, or studying in various school buildings suddenly went crazy. They either began to aimlessly attack the surroundings, or simply activated their magic circuits and used magic to attack the people around them, causing chaos.
Under such chaos, the students completely panicked. One by one, they released their magic power, intending to control their automatons. As a result, after the magic power was injected into the automatons' bodies, it was absorbed and transformed into power, which was then used by the automatons to attack their masters.
For a time, mournful wails and screams came from the school buildings, and the streets outside the school buildings were also in chaos.
The automatons went berserk and attacked their masters and everything around them. One by one, the students fell to the ground with heavy injuries. Those who didn't fall fell into panic and ran away in panic. They couldn't resist at all.
Many people were shocked by this scene.
Because, just two months ago, the same thing happened in the city of opportunity.
That was the chaos caused by Black Prince Edmond using the automaton named Evangeline, which was equipped with Absolute Royalty and Infinite Chain Reaction, obtained from the genius Professor Ionel Erriad.
Absolute Royalty, a magic that could invade the body and tamper with Eve's Heart to control the automaton.
Using this magic, coupled with the power of Infinite Chain Reaction, which could theoretically increase magic power infinitely, Edmond made all the automatons in the city become his legion, and they went berserk in Liverpool.
Now, the same situation had happened again.
"How could this be …!?"
"Is there a second Absolute Royalty automaton …!?"
"Impossible!"
All the professors and lecturers were shocked.
What shocked them even more was yet to come.
They saw that when the automatons went berserk, the students fled in panic, and the campus was in chaos, a group of black-clothed people came out of nowhere from all corners, with the panther-shaped automaton, and began to wreak havoc.
Under the control of the magicians, the black panthers opened their mouths and shot out purple plasma.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
Amidst the explosions, the plasma hit the buildings one by one, causing the electric current to flow on the outer walls. The stone walls also became scorching red and swelled up like toasted bread. Then, they all exploded and were completely destroyed.
The school suddenly seemed to be attacked by a bomber. The buildings were destroyed one by one, burned, fell to the ground, rising black smoke, and turned into a battlefield.
The destructive power of the plasma was quite amazing. Every time it hit the target, it would set off a terrible explosion.
Because it was a magic that was several levels higher than Fireball or Hot Pile, Fusion Explosion.
Just as its name suggested, this magic spell was the power of explosion through fusion. However, it was not the fusion of macroscopic matter. Instead, it was the fusion of small atoms to form larger atoms. During this process, a huge amount of energy would be produced, which would then lead to an explosion.
In short, it was a magic bomb.
Under the bombardment of these Magic Bombs, the Mechanical Magic Palace, which had a history of a hundred years, would be reduced to ruins with just one strike.
When the professors, lecturers, guards, and students saw this scene, all of them wanted to fight back, but the automatons didn't listen to them. The black panther even spewed out countless bolts of plasma to bombard them, causing huge explosions to appear in the academy one after another. Mixed with the screams of humans, it was like hell.
Even the men in black outfits had extraordinary combat abilities. They either took out their daggers or their magic equipment to attack in close combat or with magic spells. They would knock down anyone they stumbled into, showing no mercy at all.
It didn't take long for the students to lie in a pool of blood, unable to move.
On the other hand, the black-clothed people were still running around, wantonly attacking and destroying. It could be said that they were being impudent to the extreme.
The Walpurgis Royal Academy was completely reduced to a battlefield filled with gunpowder.
The chaos continued to develop.
"… This is troublesome."
In the principal's official residence, the dean looked at this scene with a distressed face.
Beside him, only Avril, the secretary, was there.
But Avril was already down.
Because of the witch's attack.
"Found you, brat."
Astrid laughed loudly and appeared with the lion-shaped automatons.
"… Long time no see, Astrid -sama, you really haven't changed at all."
The dean laughed hoarsely.
"You're still so unpleasant, kid." Astrid said with a smile, "Thirty years ago, you stole the Demonic Book of Remongedon from me. Fifteen years ago, you also hindered me on the Dark Continent. Now, you are praised as the strongest in the nineteenth century by taking the power from me, but even the Demonic Book of Remongedon was taken away. You should have thought about this, right?"
"… It's indeed a sad event." The dean sighed and said, "This is the most serious event since the founding of the academy. Well, it's karma."
"So, you still have self-awareness?" Astrid sneered and said, "In that case, do you want to surrender? Or do you want to resist? Do you think you can be my opponent without Raymond? "
Hearing that, the dean glanced at the lion-shaped automatons behind Astrid and smiled bitterly.
"If Golden Rose doesn't have that automatons, then I should be able to give it a try. But now, I'd better surrender."
The dean actually raised his hands just like that.
"Very well, I like it when you know what's good for you."
Astrid smiled and raised her hand.
The black miasma fluctuated.
