Chapter 738: 738
Chapter 738: Undead Wave 3
The next day after each of the heads went back to their own nations .
Luke and Reina, who were still in Nemesis, began to develop a new magic circle to purify the Undead on a larger scale .
“Actually, I have already thought a few concepts . When I hit Arsene, the Undead that is below him can be subdued right away . ”
When the Continental Alliance advanced into the Libiya Kingdom, Arsene would surely draw out a few more Undead cards .
He thought it would mobilize at least hundreds to thousands of Undead, so Luke was devising a plan to suppress them .
Luke told everyone about the plan he had thought of .
“Firstly, the basic framework will be to amplify the magic circle . It is to create a very, very large magic circle . No matter how you received the blessing of the spirit king, there is a limit to the number of Undead that can be purified with the Aether in Reina . ”
The maximum number of Undead that Reina could purify was around 100,000 .
But when it came to purifying the Undead, which was ten times that number, there would be other support measures needed, and the amplification magic circle was the best solution .
“Would it be possible to amplify the Spirit power with magic circles?”
Jo Mimi tilted her head as she asked .
Luke smiled rather confidently .
“Sure! The same magic circle is applied to the Gigant’s core engine, which not just amplified the magic but also the powers that the caster has, like aura and divine power . ”
Even the black magic and the demon abilities could be amplified . All the powers were the effects of the same source .
Since all the power was based on Aether, it was difficult to cast both magic and aura at the same time, but it was possible to amplify either the aura or magic .

“I don’t think I understand it . ”
“You don’t have to beat your head . It is like using oil and wood to ignite a huge fire . ”
At that, Jo Mimi nodded .
“Just to be sure, we want to purify over a million Undead, and there is only one way . But, I don’t think that a basic magic circle of average size would do it!”
Erwin pointed out a problem .
Of course, Luke too expected her to point it out .
“Yes, which is why we need to build a super large magic circle . A magic circle which has never been made in this continent’s history!”
At Luke’s words, Erwin was shocked .
She had been thinking about how large it should be, and such an absurdly large size was shocking .
“Should it be that huge?”
“It should . Making it larger will make it less difficult for us and shorten the time of curing them . ”
It was more difficult to make small magic circles when compared to larger ones .
It was because, in order to make the small magic circles function smoothly, precise calculation and delicate work were essential .
Of course, it would take a lot of hands and a lot of time for small circles .
In addition, even a slight mistake in the small magic circles’ magic process could do more damage than good .
As a result, the Iron mages who produced the Gigants had to be the most elite ones to work on the Gigants .
It was because being an elite Iron mage meant that they could engrave magic circles in even the smallest and narrowed regions .
“An amplified magic circle, how do we make that? It would be hard to gather quite a few things right?”
Following Erwin, Karen too pointed out a real problem .
It was a reasonable doubt, but Luke had already thought of a solution for it .

“I am thinking of replacing it with a Hero class Gigant . ”
“A Hero class Gigant?”
“Yes, a Sword Master level Rider in a Hero-class Gigant will be able to outperform the top class magic stone . ”
First of all, there were a number of magic stones in the Hero class Gigant .
And the Gigants had several high-end magic stones, starting from the core engine or the intermediate level stones included in the joints for smooth movements .
What would happen if a Sword Master level rider was in a Hero class Gigant that already had a huge number of magic stones in it?
The Gigant would surpass the advanced magic stone’s ability .
However, there was a reason why the magic world didn’t try that .
Firstly, there was no reason why such a large circle had to be used .
And it was because the price of a Hero class Gigant was a lot more expensive than the advanced magic stone, and it was difficult to obtain or find a Sword Master rider .
“Uhm, it sounds fine . ”
“And there are surely many Sword Master level knights on our side . ”
Erwin looked around and nodded .
There were several Sword Masters in the Symphonia Kingdom—Marquis Rogers and Count Philip .
If they weren’t enough, they had the warriors who had reached the Sword Master level—the ones who escorted Princess Jo Mimi and Ja-hye .
And, they would surely need to be given some training in dealing with the Gigants, but maneuvering was an easy task to learn and not combat .
“But there is another problem with that . It would need an enormous area to collect over a million Undead in one place . It is possible to cover a wide range with just a super amplified magic circle and a Hero class Gigant?”
In response to Erwin’s question, Luke explained by drawing something on a paper .
“So, we plan relay circles inside the magic circle . We can place an antenna item in it . ”
Luke explained the principles of relay circles and other materials’ usage to Erwin and Karen, who were listening to it with sparkling eyes .
Behind Luke, his other party members were talking about other things, like how to make a super large amplification magic circle and how to install it .
There seemed to be more challenges than they had initially thought .
However, everyone was willing to resolve the issues positively than pessimistically, and solutions did come out .
It was because Karen and Erwin would point the problems or give them new advices, so Luke would advise them .
In addition, Jo Mimi, an excellent zen user, helped .
“Indeed… In this way, if you can combine the zen, we can solve the problem of fixing the terrain of the magic circles . ”
“The problem was that even if we do this, it will take some time to build up a super large magic circle . ”
At Karen’s words, Luke nodded .
Installing a relay circle and placing Gigants to replace the magic stones in the correct coordinates, they weren’t sure if they could make it within the time limit .
It was because humans were imperfect beings, and humans were bound to make such mistakes .
‘But we have no choice but to try it out . ’
If they gave up, the future was going to be dark for them .
Luke, who knew about that, decided to go ahead with the plans without wasting any time by hesitating .
