"All right. Can you see us?" Nathan waved his hand, trying the video call.
"We do." Bella nodded.
"Good. It means everything is working as intended." Nathan felt relieved. This meant they could talk to each other.
In the beginning, Selena requested to separate the group into two. That meant Selena would bring Evelyn, Bella, Sera, Alavenya, and Luna. This meant Selena’s group would have six people, while he had four.
Still, Iris would eventually regroup with him, so he would have five. If he added Machina, that meant he would have six people.
While it was true that Machina wasn’t as strong as them, her computation ability was unimaginable.
Still, considering Luna might have to work together with Machine, he was wondering whether he should switch Vivian with Luna.
This would create some imbalance with the team, but for the time being, he was considering it.
Nevertheless, with the new technology, they could continue to communicate. This meant Selena could also access Machina’s computation as well.
After looking at the establishment of the video call, an idea flashed in his mind.
"Machina..." Nathan turned his head around.
"Yes, Master?"
"I did tell you to make an adjustable satellite, right?"
"Yes. I’m in the process of making it."
"What if I use a satellite, and someone from very far away also uses it? So, we are both connected by satellite. How far can we reach?"
Machina calculated for a moment. "If I have to say, it might be more than the military-grade phone that the empire currently has.
"If we’re going to use the satellite to shoot the signal, it’s normally done just one way. We shoot and be done with it because the other party doesn’t have any satellite to receive it.
"However, if we can connect the two satellites, it might actually work. We’re going to take advantage of the spacetime tunnel, so the distance or line of sight, which is usually the flaw of this method, is no longer there.
"So, the only thing that limits the concept is the distance. I can’t predict how far it is. In addition, if we can get a better satellite, it can go even further.
"But for the time being, my prediction is about a few million light-years away. If we consider the cosmic scale, it’s not much, but it’s much longer than the few thousand we currently have."
Nathan raised his head. "I don’t think Yog-Sothoth’s teleportation will separate us that far, but we can probably test it by going to separate portals and locating each other after we defeat the alien."
"Understood. However, it will still take time to develop that kind of satellite because we have to build it from scratch. We need some technological breakthrough first to close the gap between our technology and the empire. Just a blueprint is not enough."
"I see. Well, I will have my disciple, who is going to be a goddess of creation with us soon. In addition, Luna will assist you. I don’t know when my disciple is coming, so for now, I want a rough estimate."
"In that case..." Machina paused for a few more seconds. "If we prioritize the satellite over the telescope, then I will probably need 3 weeks."
"Three weeks... That’s faster than I originally thought."
"That’s just the prototype. There’s a chance something will go wrong, of course."
"Fair enough." Nathan nodded in understanding. "Well, we usually spend two weeks in every destination. So, I guess we will have two more worlds to visit before splitting into two groups?" Nathan looked at Selena.
"I don’t exactly mind, but what about the destination?"
"If we can’t find any destination, we will head to the great void as close as possible."
"The Great Void, the place where nothing exists..." Machina was confused why Nathan mentioned this place.
"That place was supposed to be the ancient battlefield between humans and aliens. The strongest of the bunch."
"Oh, that’s interesting. So, this battle destroys everything within such a large radius?"
"That’s the gist of the situation. Most likely, Yog-Sothoth and Azathoth are also involved in it."
"I see. I will note it first."
Nathan was still considering Loki. He was supposed to be the one who knew everything, but he didn’t know whether this was a correct idea or not.
"Anyway, that’s the gist of our big plan right now. For now, let’s talk about the fight against the alien." Nathan waved his hand.
They turned solemn. In the end, this alien was the pressing matter. This would probably be the hardest fight they were going to face.
After all, they needed to worry about their backs as well.
Nathan summoned Mae. "Please."
"Understood." Mae snapped her fingers, producing the illusion about the alien. "This will be our target. It’s an extremely big target, but this alien is extremely strong. It has also accumulated a large amount of energy, which it might use against us.
"Hence, the first thing we need to do is to ensure that we block whatever is coming to us.
"Then, we will chip down its power and then hit it down. Nathan might end up being restrained because of the empire, so we will have to consider our every action.
"For the time being, the general plan will be Noelle, Alavenya, and Evelyn to be the vanguards. Selena will support Alavenya, Vivian will support Noelle, and Bella will support Evelyn.
"All six of you are to make sure you survive all the barrages from the alien. Sera will boost your power. Of course, Anubis and Raphael will help you as well. Most of Nathan’s familiars will go to the front, leaving only Ananta for the time being. But remember that he might have to recall them all of a sudden and fight the empire.
"Once we enter the middle phase, Luna and Flora will start unleashing everything they have. They will focus on dealing damage to the alien. It might not be effective, but we want to determine the true power of the alien, including its supernatural abilities. If possible, we want to push the alien to go berserk as well.
"And the last phase..." Mae’s expression turned grim, as this was the most concerning phase.
