Blood Elf Monarch

The professor took Tristan and the others to a particular room. Just as the door opened, they were greeted by a large screen facing them, and on it were pictures with lights. A few of the Arcadian elites who were not used to such a thing had amazed expressions on their faces.

"My lord, we successfully managed to take out the space knights\' radar and attached it to this monitor," Professor Emmet reported after the door was closed.

A moment after Professor Emmet finished speaking, the pictures on the screen changed. Replacing them were rough lines that quickly formed large undefined shapes. It took Tobias a second before he recognized that the shapes formed by the lines were the continent where Arcadia was located.

The shapes also showed a few markings and a blinking dot. Upon seeing that Tristan\'s gaze was on the markings, the professor explained that they represented the 24 cities in Arcadia.

"The location of the blinking dot is transmitted from the device that we asked the eagle riders to carry," Professor Emmet explained further.

The group could see that the blinking dot was moving further from the location that appeared to be the capital city.

Afterward, the professor brought the group toward a large table on the side. As he arrived in front of the table, he took a bracelet from the table.

As soon as Professor Emmet took the bracelet, he began explaining how it was a device that could both send and receive messages. Not only that, but it could also easily find and connect to other identical bracelet devices. The functions of this device were just like mobile phones, and it was definitely a better solution than those communication stones.

"This is fantastic!"

Although this kind of technology could be considered average and perhaps even slightly low to Earth\'s standard, it could not be denied that this device could greatly benefit the current Arcadia.

Tristan was satisfied. With a radar, a beacon, and communication devices like this, he could now easily make the first responder unit to be very reliable.

Thinking of the formation of the first future responder unit for Arcadia, Tristan immediately ordered for the device to be quickly mass-produced. He also asked for the devices to be distributed to the Arcadian elites as well as the governor of the 24 Arcadian cities as soon as they were available. For himself, the professor made it to be able to connect with the OPR device that was placed in between his left eye and ear.

"You\'ve worked hard, Professor. From the gun to these devices, they\'re all really well-made."

Tristan\'s praise was not without basis. After all, with the current technology of Arcadia, being able to produce devices like these was a feat.

The professor was elated when he heard Tristan\'s praise. Even so, he held himself back.

"My lord, I haven\'t shown you the best news so far!" Professor Emmet exclaimed, doing his best to suppress his glee.

"Hm?" Tristan did not expect that those were not all. "What is it?"

The professor led Tristan to another device that he somewhat recognized. It was the radio device that the professor showed him before the space cruiser arrived above the capital city of Arcadia.

The professor began operating the device as soon as he arrived in front of it.

"Now, please take a look at this." As Professor Emmet spoke, his eyes that were glued to the device formed crescents.

This time, instead of a voice sounding as Tristan expected, he saw words appearing on the screen.

[Priority message to the 201st Galactus, you are delayed on your report. Update your status immediately.]

Siegfried quickly told that this was a message sent from the empire headquarters.

Tristan was amazed. Emmet kept giving him surprises one after another. Making eye contact with the professor, Tristan once again gave a thumbs up to the professor.

When Professor Emmet took his eyes off the device to see Tristan\'s positive reaction, the skinny-looking professor enthusiastically explained that with the new radar, they could now receive messages from much further than before.

Not to mention, with the spaceship\'s codes, he could now also pinpoint the location of the source of the messages. With this, Arcadia would be able to find out when the enemy was coming closer much sooner, giving them time to prepare.

The professor also added that there was also certain data being analyzed by the space knights. Apparently captain Jenkins did order the analysis of the barrier when they enter the planet.

There it was unseen to the eyes, a barrier that covered the whole planet. This made Tirstan wonder, who or what made such a barrier and to what purpose.

After analysing the data from the ship and interrogating the space knight prisoners, it was safe to say that all messages that were sent after the ship entered the barrier were blocked by that barrier.

Because of this, Arcadia could only listen to the sounds outside and could never send messages out. The knowledge from this was the main reason they could not quickly respond to Siegfried\'s space crash six months ago.

With this new information and the message that they just received, Siegfried believed that the space knights would not come until at least another week.

This was certainly good news for them. They were now certain that they had at least another week to prepare. Although a week did not seem like much time, it was still much better than nothing. They would be able to prepare much more in a week.

Now, the only missing piece was the survivor of the space knights; the one who escaped the crash, the man with the rank of major.

Unfortunately, despite their surveillance on the area, the major was never seen in or around Arcadia. 

A magus-level fighter freely roaming around Arcadia was definitely something they should be concerned about. This unknown factor could become a problem sooner or later.
