Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer
Chapter 333 Escape ( 1 )From the voice of the Project Leader, everyone can tell that Vincent did something horrible when he 'met' the magic god a while ago.
They weren't sure what exactly Vincent did but for the usually calm and composed leader to react like this, it is definitely not something trivial… It must be a serious matter that involves the deity himself!
Unfortunately for them, the alchemists that are currently here weren't combat magicians… They rely on their tools, potions, and other tricks to fight in a battle.
They are completely unlike Luna who has the physical strength, agility, and armor that make her an unstoppable force.
As soon as Luna burst with power, they immediately realized that they were dealing with a Celestial Being. They weren't sure whether she was Numbered or not but what's important is that they have to keep them here!
They don't even have the time to ponder how they missed her presence even though she was so near them. Normally, they would be able to know whether there is a Celestial Being in the vicinity using their tools and mana arts…
The old leader looked at Vincent and Luna solemnly as he realized that even though they might capture the two, the damages might be too severe and even the altar might become a casualty. That is obviously not something they could afford.
"Vincent! Do not fight back! We need to properly interrogate you as you have done something atrocious! I'm not sure how you did it but we will know once we've interrogated you. Order your Celestial Being to stand down! If you're innocent, it can be easily proven and we will compensate you for the trouble we've made."
He immediately tried to calm the situation seeing that Luna has already worn her Celestial Armor. Although they have Mana Formations, Magic Artifacts, and Secret Arts that they could use to subdue her, it would still be too troublesome.
Their original plan is to control Vincent after all. If they did that, the Celestial Beings under him would be easily controlled so they weren't too worried about his Celestial Beings initially. They were too reliant on this plan that now that it has failed, they were having trouble controlling the situation.

"Hmph! Do you think you can leave in this dimension? You're probably not aware of this but after you entered this hall—"
"I know… I also thought that I won't have a way to escape but someone I'd just seen someone destroy a dimension… I think I can do that as well." Vincent said mysteriously as he pulled out one more item from his ring.
"Luna… Protect me for a while." Vincent whispered as he decided to rely on her this time.
"That's easy… How about I just kill them all?"
"Ugh… I can't move while I'm doing this… They might attack me while you're away."
"That's true… Make it fast then…" Luna said as she seem very disappointed that she can't just rush and kill the alchemists who were showing hostility toward them.
Actually, Nina, who was previously beside them didn't show any form of hostility but instead confusion about the situation. She's obviously not part of the group that tried to control Vincent.
When the old leader ordered the two to be captured, instead of following his orders, she had actually retreated to the corner…
Well, it may be because she's not a combat magician but the fact that she didn't just try capturing them means that these people weren't as organized as he had expected.
Vincent was able to tell that there were alchemists who were some sort of fanatics of the magic god while the others were truly just here for research and advancement of the Mana Practitioners.
Since he wasn't fully sure of the situation of the 15th Tower, he didn't want to just randomly kill anyone they meet in this tower.
He wanted to ensure that he'll only deal with the real sinners. Those who had truly dabbled with forbidden practices like human experimentation.
"Momentum Freeze!"
A group of magicians finally finished their preparation and activated one of their Formation Arts. It didn't end there…
"Mana Solidification…"
"Hymn of Confusion…"
Two other formation arts that were set up in this place were activated.
Luna smiled after seeing this as she clenched her fist and punched into the air.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The Formation Arts that were meant to suppress the two collapsed in an instant.
Her punch contains a wave-like form of Celestial Energy that disrupted the surrounding mana…

Luna laughed as she saw the group of magicians spitting some blood after she forcefully canceled the formation art they were trying to control.
At this moment, no one was able to control the surrounding Mana because her Celestial Energy was mixed into them…
The magicians in front of her can only rely on the mana that is inside their core…
Realizing that they can't rely on their Formation Arts, they know that they have to fight using their Mana Arts instead.
However, they were a bit hesitant… It may not be a big deal for some but the alchemists here know that they can't just empty the mana inside their cores. Since they are in a secret dimension, the natural mana recovery doesn't work here!
If their mana was used, they can only use potions to recover them!
In addition, they know how durable the Celestial Beings can be… Even 10 of their strongest Mana Arts may not be enough to destroy that armor she's wearing…
Among the magicians within the Black Tower's territory, they were probably the ones who were more knowledgeable about this.
The magicians looked at their leader with hopeful eyes since they know that there is another method to deal with a Celestial Being in front of them… If their leader can afford to sacrifice a bit, she will surely get captured.
However, they noticed that he wasn't looking at the Celestial Being but instead at Vincent. He seem to be shocked at something as he roared in anger.
"Stop! Everyone! Use all your Mana Arts and focus them on Vincent! Hurry! They will escape!"
The old man shouted as he realized that Vincent has reached a critical point. He wasn't exactly sure how Vincent did it but he can feel that the surrounding dimension is starting to distort!
This is not a good sign so they have to stop him at all costs!
