"12 miles remaining!! This is as far as we can go! The ship cannot take another hit!!"

Those words were the last he said before the ship exploded into pieces.

KABOOOOMMMM!!!

Fortunately, Emery managed to create the [Spatial Gate] and pulled Burdock at the very last second before the ship exploded, which resulted in all five of them having arrived inside the Nexus space station.

"We did it!! Ahahhaha..." said the bespectacled engineer, still in disbelief of what he had just experienced.

"Where are we?" Julian said as he turned his head, his gaze wandering around the room they were in.

By simply glancing at the surrounding wall and seeing the number printed on it, Stildar answered the question. "We should be in one of the storage rooms of Deck 5, a great place to arrive"

While the faces of the two Quartermain and Burdock brightened, Emery, on the contrary, didn't seem to share the same enthusiasm. His face turned serious because the moment he arrived, he quickly picked up the glaring presence of several magus figures – five to be exact.

Turning to the rebel leader, he asked, "I thought there weren't any other magus here?"

Stildar's face turned dark when he heard those words. It seemed that the man really didn't expect the existence of other magus.

"Dammit!! That must be Wilf and his team."

The name mentioned was apparently someone who was only second in strength compared to Garnet. He and the four others should have been dispatched to the frontline, so they must have been summoned back recently.

Emery couldn't help but smile wryly. Other than the security and the cameras, now they had to also consider the five magus' Spirit Reading. This mission seemed more and more impossible by the second.

"We don't have much time. They could track us in minutes," said Julian before he turned to Stildar. "You will be much easier to track, so you will be the decoy and distract those people."

The Quartermain nodded his head as a sign that he understood. "Alright, just leave it to me."

Even though being a decoy could basically mean certain capture or death with the five magus present at the station, not the slightest bit of fear could be seen on Stildar's face.

Knowing that the five Nexus magus could descend upon them at any moment, Emery quickly cast Spatial Gate twice. One specifically for Stildar, which sent him somewhere at the far end of the space station, while he and the others went to a different place.

"You can do it, Boss! Take care!" said Bardock to Stildar as they parted ways.

With one person short and limited time due to unexpected developments, Julian decided to adjust their set plan accordingly.

"I'm afraid that we can't go to all three places, so we must prioritize our destination."

They still had around two hours before the orc hordes crossed the wasteland border, and after that, it would be a few more hours before they would become a real threat to the people on the ground. Therefore, taking control of the drones was quickly decided to be the least priority among the three objectives, which decided the matter.

Julian would take Bardock to find a way to notify the Magus Alliance about the situation here, while Emery would get the most important objective, to go with the science minister to stop the stargate.

"Alright, that's all. Good luck, my friend."

Those were the words the Roman spoke before his figure disappeared into the swirling portal, which would take him to the left wing section of the space station. With that, Emery was left alone with Otto.

Their destination would be the latter's science lab, where they could access the computer that had the clearance to change the code, preventing the Nexus from granting the elves access to the stargate.

Just as he was about to cast another Spatial Gate, the sound of sirens suddenly sounded loudly in the air. Through his Spirit Reading, Emery was able to tell that hundreds of saint level fighters were moving around the station along with the mechanical soldiers looking for them.

'We need to hurry!'

Emery put his hand on the nearby walls and once again scrutinized the space station with his Spirit Reading. The entire station was about 40 miles in length, but although he was already inside, the void outside the station disturbed his senses, making him only able to perceive half of the station.

His mind recalled the schematic of the space station he saw in the briefing. The moment he located the specific location where his objective was, Emery immediately cast Spatial Gate and opened a portal for the two of them to walk into.

Despite having experienced it many times, the minister was still impressed when he saw where they had arrived.

"Just outside of my lab. Spatial magic is indeed very convenient."

When Otto confirmed his identity and the door opened, Emery saw a dozen people in white uniforms. He could clearly see how they all immediately became alert when they saw who was coming.

"Minister Otto!!, you! Intruder!!"

Before these people could do anything, Emery pulled out his [Light Staff] and cast the Tier 3 light spell [Smite]. A dazzling light appeared within the room, sending out a surge of force enough to knock the dozen people to the ground incapacitated or unconscious.

"Alright. You can do your task now, Minister," said Emery, beckoning for the man to enter.

Otto walked over the unconscious bodies of his colleagues towards one of the main panels with a reluctant look plastered on his face. Even so, he started accessing the computer and entered the server.

Unfortunately, Emery didn't have a chance to see what the minister was doing as he himself had a company to take care of.

Dozens of Nexus mechanical soldiers were already arriving outside of the lab, and it would certainly not be long until the powerhouse – Nexus magus – arrived. With the Spirit Reading, he also knew that in a remote corner of the station, Stildar had encountered the other side and began to fight.

To his surprise, there were only two of the Nexus magus fighting with the magus rebel, while the other three headed his way.

It was not hard for Emery to keep all the soldiers from entering the lab. With multiple jade warriors, he even manages to push them back.

With the magus closing in, Emery looked toward the busy minister and shouted

"How much time do you need?"

"Fiftee– no, twenty minutes."

With that much time, apparently, he couldn't avoid this fight.
