Chapter 486 First Squadron
"A hundred? Furthermore, they were using their berserk ability… That's impossible… The Celestials mentioned the werewolves can't use their berserk ability during daylight…" Vincent can only reply as he recalled how important having the full moon was for the Werewolves.
Even if it's not a full moon, as long as it's night, these werewolves may become really strong but their berserk ability is another matter.
"That's true… I didn't get the full report yet but it seems that they have gained powers that can suppress the Celestials… No, at the very least, they were able to surprise the Celestials because of that…" Calidia replied and through her voice, Vincent can tell that she was already about to tear up.
Vincent can't understand what happened to them but he needs to know their situation for now.
"Are they already retreating? If the number of werewolves is too much… They should've retreated immediately."
"Yes… They're already on their way… Should we send the Third Gen Combat Airships?" Calidia asked.
Previously, they decided not to send these airships because they needed to ensure that Beatrice wouldn't have the chance of using her space-type ability to escape.
After all, no matter how fast these airships are, the sound of their engines would easily give away their location. It can't be used in stealth operations at all.
Nevertheless, now that the situation has changed, Calidia suggested using them immediately.
"Alright! Support their escape as much as possible… Send other Celestials as well… Do you think it's possible to counterattack and kill them all in one go?"
Vincent asked.
Although he really felt uncomfortable about the death of the Celestials and Archknights under his command, he knows that he can't just waste this opportunity. Since the werewolves have appeared, wouldn't this be a perfect chance for them as well?
"We can possibly do that… Should I give the order?" Calidia asked. She can't just command the Celestials after all.
"Alright… Send them… I'll inform Krusk as well and we'll go together… I will join the fight. I'll leave the city to you, Lydia."
Although their city would have a weaker defense if they send all the powerhouses outside the city, Vincent can't underestimate the enemies…
If he decided not to go all out, they might be the ones suffering…
Calidia clenched her fist as she nodded…
"Please save them…"

Ring! Ring!
Yvette was practicing with her pistol at the training grounds in the central part of Vera City when she heard her communication crystal…
She knows that no one would contact her aside from her superior so she immediately answered.
She heard the situation from her superior and her eyes lit up.
"Yes! I'm joining the mission!" She answered.
As a pilot of the Third Generation Aircraft - Tempest, she rarely had a chance to join battles as normally, enemies would be dealt with by the mounted weapons on the city wall or even the Celestial Being themselves.
Even the task of subjugating the surrounding Savage Beasts or Magic Beasts wouldn't be given to them…
Furthermore, even if she can fly the aircraft for practice, she wouldn't be able to use the mounted missiles on it since they were extremely expensive.
According to her friends in the Tower, each missile costs about the same as an Epic Grade weapon or even more!
It was such an incredible invention and she can't wait to use it!
How does it feel to waste so much money with just a single press of a button? She wanted to feel it! She wanted to have such an experience!
Soon, she met with the four other pilots…
Since they were all from the Tudor Kingdom and were captured by the Barbarians, the five of them have an unusual connection that allows them to work really well together.
Currently, they were all wearing the pilot uniform with the logo of Vera City…
"It seems that we'll be covering the escape of the Werewolf Slayer Squad… I hope we get there in time…" A bald man in his twenties said as he watch the engineers do a last check with the aircraft before they were allowed to enter the cockpit.
He is the leader of the squad and considered the Ace Pilot… His name is Silver and was obviously a made-up name after entering this continent. He mentioned that after being betrayed, he had already abandoned his previous identity and will live as a new person.
Yvette guessed that his hair, or perhaps, his hair color would give a clue to his real identity so he decided to shave it off and use some sort of alchemy to ensure no hair would grow on his body.
"We will surely be there in time… There are two Numbered Celestials in their squad… Furthermore, I heard that they are two digits. Even if they're in a precarious situation, I'm sure that they wouldn't be so helpless in their situation." One of them added.
"That might be true… However, I'm also worried. What if this is just a trap to lure us out? The city's defenses will weaken if we leave. I also heard that the other Celestials will be transported by another aircraft…" Yvette worriedly said.
The others couldn't help but agree with this statement.
Apparently, after Vincent's Vermillion Hawk crashed, he immediately built another aircraft that is unlike the Tempest… Although the engine may be the same, the design and purpose are different. It is meant to be transportation for Celestial Beings!
It means that Vincent will truly go all out and bring the rest of the Celestials to counterattack! The city will only be left with a few Grand Knights and Grand Magus…
They might be overthinking this but since they've been attacked several times already, they couldn't help but be paranoid for a bit.
"No need to worry… It's not like Sir Vincent doesn't have a plan…" Silver answered as he saw the engineers' signal…
They have finished their preparations and were ready to sortie!
As expected, they soon heard the announcement calling for their team...
The First Squadron: War Eagles will join the battle!
