  Upon entering the building, the three of them immediately felt a spike in mana as a barrier of sorts formed around the building.

  "Hm…… There shouldn’t be a barrier just yet. No one has claimed this place." Iziuel frowned as Estrella readied a spell just in case.

  "Mum, what do you think of this?" Lisandra asked.

  However, seeing that there was no response, she couldn’t help but frown and glance at Iziuel and Estrella.

  "There’s no response from mum."

  Hearing this, the two of them paused for a moment and widened their eyes.

  "I can’t feel my connection to her anymore." Iziuel frowned.

  "Me neither." Estrella added.

  Furrowing her brows, Lisandra walked towards the door and wanted to make their way outside but the moment her hand touched the handlebar on the door, her entire body was repelled back as lightning struck against her hand.

  "Well that’s certainly not a good sign." Lisandra furrowed her brows.

  "Let me try." Estrella spoke up as she clasped her hands together.

  Creating a tier 6 magic circle in front of her. She tried to create a portal outside but the path was blocked by the barrier.

  "So we’re stuck then. Perhaps this will only open once we claim it." Lisandra frowned since they were now isolated from the others.

  "Alright, let’s do it quickly since Shiro might get worried. After what happened in the first event, she’ll be sensitive about situations like this." Iziuel suggested as the two of them nodded their heads.

  Making their way towards the centre of the building, they watched as a tier 6 magic circle appeared in front of them.

  *BANG!

  Quickly stabilising themselves, they realised that the floor was being pushed down as all the chairs and tables started to shake.

  Seeing that they were being sent down as if this was an elevator, the three prepared themselves for combat should anything happen.

  ###

  "Lisa?" Shiro called out with a frown since the connection was completely cut off. She had a mote on all six of them so that she could teleport them back should anything happen but the moment the three of them entered the buildings, her connection to the node had been cut off by something.

  Even their cameras didn’t work as they no longer had any information on what happened to any of them.

  "What happened?" Nan Tian asked as he knew that something was wrong. Seeing Shiro tense up like this, he guessed that it was to do with Lisandra’s group that had entered the building.

  "Yes. I’ve lost connection to all three of them. I don’t know what’s happening inside." Shiro explained as she took a deep breath. She could feel her heart beat faster but quickly suppressed her anxiety for now. Nothing is certain yet, for all she knows it might just be a small trial that the three of them can clear easily.

  So far this trial had been like usual. Nothing crazy had happened just yet, no tier 7 or 8’s have made themselves known.

  Grabbing the mic, she changed the screen to what Shiina and the others could see.

  "Shiina are you able to contact Lisandra? If you can’t, peel off the roof of that building so that we can get a visual." Shiro ordered as Shiina nodded her head.

  The moment she reached out for the building, the mech’s arm was repelled as several tier 6 magic circles appeared within the area.

  Seeing everything go south, Shiro gritted her teeth and handed everything to Nan Tian.

  "Take control for now. I’ll be back once I get into contact with Lisandra." Shiro frowned as Nan Tian nodded his head.

  "Alright, stay safe."

  "Don’t worry, I will." Shiro smiled as she opened a portal and immediately teleported to where Glen and the others were.

  "Your highness!" Shiina called out in surprise seeing Shiro teleport right above them.

  "Don’t mind me. Kill the things that come out of the portals while I deal with this." Shiro said as she jumped off and landed in front of the door.

  Narrowing her eyes at the building, she activated analysis and attempted to see through the walls. However, even in the colourless world where everything was black with white lines, the entire building was just a single block of white that wouldn’t let her see anything that was on the inside.

  Crouching down, she ignored the portals opening around them as she wanted to scan the area and see if she could sense anything.

  Sending out her mana, a holographic map appeared in her mind. However, there was no change. The building was still blocking her perception and it extended underground as well.

  "Tch." Clicking her tongue in annoyance, Shiro pulled back her arm before punching toward the door.

  *BANG!!!!!

  Colliding with the barrier, Shiro could see faint rippling across the surface before repelling her fist with equal force.

  Narrowing her eyes, Shiro was about to attack again when Nan Tian interrupted.

  "Don’t attack just yet. There are units making their way towards this place. I can’t see any Queens, but they have quite a few tier 6’s. I’m not sure if they’re an attack force or if they’re a scouting force but you might want to be careful." Nan Tian warned.

  "Alright thanks." Shiro nodded.

  "Glen, I want you to go deal with them by yourself. You should be able to accomplish that. Shiina, guard this place with Maria’s help." Shiro ordered as Glen paused in surprise.

  However, if Shiro said that he could deal with it, he’ll follow her orders.

  "Understood. Is there anything I should keep in mind?" Glen asked as Shiro thought about it for a moment.

  "Yes. Let me adjust the mech so that it’s just bigger than most people. Against tier 6’s, having a large body would be disadvantageous against you. Try not to get hit if you can but don’t hesitate to trade a hit if it allows you to take the advantage against them." Shiro explained as Glen nodded his head.

  Taking his hands off the control, he flicked a few switches before confirming the change.

  Controlling the mech so that it kneeled down, the pieces started to condense themselves as the giant mech shrank down to something the size of a large truck.

  Adjusting himself to the controls, Glen watched as a map appeared in the cockpit, revealing where the enemies were approaching from.

  Stomping down, he activated the jet thrusters along with the stealth module.

  While that was happening, Shiina raised her hand up and sent out several anchors using the mech’s nanobots.

  Placing them near the opening of each portal, she readied her spell.

  No matter what comes out, she’ll guard Shiro to the best of her abilities.

  ###

  Controlling the mech to charge towards the enemies while suppressing my presence, I wonder about her highness’ current condition. Her face was pale and she seemed anxious.

  Thinking back to my time while training with her, this was completely different.

  Regardless, I will complete the task that she had given me so that there was one less thing she had to worry about. Even though it’s my first time facing against tier 6 enemies, if her highness believed that I can do this, then it is within the realm of possibility. I just had to play my cards right.

  I can’t activate the throne world module like everyone else but this mech has been modified before deployment.

  "2 minutes before contact."

  The holographic version of her highness spoke out as I readied the sword.

  Right now, I can achieve a maximum of 85% body control. While it wasn’t at the desired 90%, it allows me to control my mech with better precision since the synchronisation was akin to me projecting my mind into the mech’s body.

  With 85% control, I’ll be able to use all of the techniques that I know with the mech.

  Taking a deep breath, I waited in ambush.

  "We’re approaching their location soon." Our commando said as we’re following him through the forest.

  Apparently, we had to scout the zone the enemy was looking at and see if we could take it for ourselves since it was a small zone. Most of the big zones are being contested right now and not many have their eye on a small zone.

  *Sigh……

  "We’re probably just cannon fodder. People that are just tier 3 like us can’t do much in this place." One of the ’volunteers’ muttered besides me and I couldn’t help but agree with him.

  We sought refuge with one of the Queens in hopes for safety but here we are, fighting in an event rather than relaxing in the safety of the city.

  "Hush, there’s not much humans like us can do anymore. We’ve missed our chance of changing things before the new age. Now that things have come to this, do you really think the Queens will even let us level up? The dungeons that are still around are guarded and anyone who forces themselves through are killed on sight. Hell, if you’re allowed then you’re probably going to be used as Exp bags." Another retorted.

  All of us didn’t care about how loud we were speaking since it was common knowledge.

  What a sh*tty world. No notice, just pure carnage. Perhaps if I had known things would turn out like this, I would have tried harder in the dungeons.
