The continent, bereft of light, cannot distinguish between day and night. The pointer in the square shows the current time.
Twelve o'clock noon.
Light silver threads rose from the ground, forming a huge net that covered the entire continent of Nadus.
In the mountain range chosen as the final battlefield, space began to distort infinitely, and a huge black arm stretched out from within.
The races from all over the continent would need to clear out the abyssal monsters before rushing here to provide support. Therefore, in the early stages, everyone present would have to hold on.
The mountains are filled with magic circles carved by magicians overnight, ready to give the demons a heavy blow when they come out.
"See this magic circle? It's my confinement magic, and it's incredibly effective," a magician boasted to the priest next door. "Remember to pray devoutly to the god you serve later, and don't waste my magic."
"Haha, I hope the magic doesn't lose its effect when I pray to the gods."
"As long as you don't hold back—"
With a loud bang, several high-level lord-level demons squeezed out.
After they appeared, they looked at their own kind and suddenly separated.
"Why are you two bastards following me?" a demon with four eyes behind his head said impatiently, "We agreed to go our separate ways and not interfere with each other."
"Follow you? Ha, impossible."
The demon with horns looked around calmly: "It was the creatures of the material world that brought us together."
The demons floated in the air, and magical halos of various elements lit up in the mountains below and shot towards them.
He chuckled and didn't dodge or avoid.
The magical elements did not cause any substantial harm to the high-level demons.
"Small things."
The goat demon took off the straps on his sleeves, tied them into the shape of a bird, and gently touched it in his hand.
The black bird transformed into a giant eagle and swooped down to the ground, causing damage to the already drawn magic circle.
"hiss."
Hit by a magic circle mixed with holy elements, the demon with four eyes behind its head flew towards the magic circle in dissatisfaction.
"Idiot." The bull-horned demon rolled his eyes and ignored him, preparing to summon the demons in his territory.
He suddenly sensed something and narrowed his eyes: "Who is this?"
A thick holy element suddenly gathered in the mountains, creating an unpleasant aura for the demons.
The abyss kept swallowing and spitting, and every time it opened and closed, thousands of monsters poured out.
The material world's attempts at resistance angered the Abyss. Low-level demons without their own agenda appeared more frequently than ever before, not to mention mid- and high-level demons.
They are called upon by the abyss, which is their origin.
The wounds of the adventurers and knights are being healed and added under the protection of the priests.
The magicians' robes with magic immunity are working hard to defend their masters from the curse of the devil, but it seems that the effect is not very good.
The priests who were blessing the goddess were gathered together chanting. Thick holy elements came from another world, forming a huge holy element halo under their feet.
The half-elf from the Believers' Guild looked anxious: "Where's she?"
"Who?" The Kingdom Knight was guarding nearby.
"The priests of Mary told their guide yesterday that it would be 12 noon sharp."
"Them." The War God Priest came over and said, "Most of them are adventurers, dealing with small monsters on the periphery."
"Speaking of which, I passed by the Adventurer's Guild this morning, and that healing inn had disappeared. Completely gone."
"ah?"
No one else responded to the half-elf's words. Their attention was all attracted by the things summoned by the priests of the Goddess of Blessing.
The halo of holy elements beneath the feet of the priests continued to expand, and suddenly it soared into the air, with a faint figure emerging from it.
The demons that were wreaking havoc stopped diving.
A figure whose face could not be seen clearly began to chant blessings, fluorescent light rose from the priests' bodies, and holy elements entered from another space, instantly filling the bodies of all believers of the Goddess of Blessing.
The summoned figure transformed into light and scattered across the earth. The sky, which had been darkened by the stirring of the dark elements, seemed to become slightly brighter.
The devil was relieved: "It's a blessing, I thought..."
"What do you think? Like Dryden who entered the territory of the Light Believers a few days ago? That's not something that ordinary human priests can summon..."
A stronger burst of holy elements came, mixed with a familiar breath.
Bursts of exclamations came from afar amidst the sounds of magic exploding.
An object as massive as the largest demon in the abyss flew through the air, carrying high-level life forms from tens of thousands of continents.
The demons, who were already accustomed to the darkness, adjusted their vision and carefully observed the behemoth.
It was a building similar to a human castle, but much larger than an average human castle.
From a distance, it looks like a bustling city full of life, with lights dotting the streets.
The bull-horned demon grabbed a low-level monster nearby, lit it on fire, and threw it towards the castle.
A net made of green vines shot out from the highest tower of the castle, entangling the burning low-level monster and destroying it together with it in an explosion.
The demon turned his gaze towards the tower, where a black-haired human priestess stood. In front of her stood a melon, and behind her followed closely a young human in leather armor.
…
"What's this……"
People looked up into the sky and saw that a huge flying object like a castle appeared and was quickly targeted by the high-level demons.
The abyss began to spit out monsters with flying abilities, attacking it.
"look!"
Initially, the magic within the castle was able to resist these attacks, but gradually, more and more monsters attacked it. The castle's outer walls began to crumble...
But it won't be long before the damaged areas begin to repair and return to their original state.
When people saw that the object belonged to them, they felt relieved and their morale was high.
"Is this a newly developed thing? Which country is it from? Why haven't I heard of it?"
The magicians were stunned: "What kind of magic is this? To make such a big thing fly in the air?"
The flying castle quickly entered the battlefield, scattering the demons, and the city wall collided directly with a demon that had just climbed out of the abyss and occupied half of the mountain range.
Before rushing in, a huge barrier made of ice mixed with holy elements appeared on one side of the city wall, but even so, it was still severely damaged.
The castle, which was originally moving, stopped as if it had malfunctioned and began to sink.
Just when people thought it had a problem and was about to fall to the ground, it stopped sinking and hung in the air.
…
【Stop moving, acquiring coordinates.】
【10, 9, 8, …】
[The Plane Healing Station system's energy transmission is successful, and all functions are now operational.]
[Special Edition of the Complete Defense System Activated: No longer restricts attacks, and creatures with malicious intent towards the host will be imprisoned.]
Eryi opened the system panel to check the current status.
[Please quickly repair your moving castle. Click to confirm. It will cost 250,000 energy points to fully repair it.]
Heartbroken.
The item [Moving Castle] is in the same category as the Ancient Magic Carriage in the system mall, and is under the Transportation Toolbar item.
The direct purchase cost is as high as 100 million energy points, and this thing requires a large amount of magic power or energy points as energy to use. Even if there is enough energy points to purchase it, it is even more luxurious to use.
The castle's basic infrastructure consists of 3,000 guest rooms with private bathrooms, each furnished with premium, non-magical bedding. Adding other features or utilizing spatial laws for expansion will incur additional fees.
When not moving, the basic energy consumption is 100 per day.
During the preparations the day before, Eryi spent a lot of energy bargaining with Ling Lingba, and finally bought it for one million energy points a day, with a minimum rental of five days.
The reason is that Zero Zero Eight needs a lot of energy to materialize the castle.
As the most advanced means of transportation in the mall, the moving castle can be loaded with healing stations, but this only works when it stops moving. Therefore, when moving, you can only spend energy to purchase disposable defensive items in the mall or build defensive facilities in the castle to protect it.
Once damaged, it takes energy to repair it.
Because it is rented, it must be repaired and cannot be used as is.
Permanent defenses were expensive, and rentals were not available. But that didn't matter, because Eryi had just come from the Elf Forest, and the castle was equipped with thousands of mobile turrets—mages and elves.
At midnight, after she confirmed that the sealing progress had reached 100%, she rented the [Moving Castle], but she tried to contact Piccolo but received no response.
At that time, I checked the contract panel and saw that his coordinates were still in the Elf Forest, so I simply enabled the movement function to bring him back.
The others were just incidental.
When the moving castle is flying, the speed can reach up to 300 kilometers per hour, but it requires magic power, or energy.
If you use energy to fly, it will cost 500 per hour, and the hover function will cost 100 per hour.
But if you use magic, every 20 points of magic can deduct 1 point of energy.
There are places throughout the castle, including in the rooms, where you can inject magic. When the magic value reaches a certain level, you can also activate some of the castle's built-in defense functions.
The magic power provided to her by the magicians and elves after they entered the castle was enough for her to fly around the entire Nadus continent twice.
One night should be enough for the magicians to recover most of their spirits, even if the healing station function was not loaded and the bonus status was not restored because the castle was always moving.
But the magicians who had their magic power exhausted due to sealing the entrance to the abyss have never stopped since they climbed onto the castle.
They sent magic out through the windows of the castle to shoot down the demons that suddenly stopped.
"This angle is good, one more shot." This is another magician who would rather take drugs to maintain his spirit and magic power than sleep.
"Is this engraved on the window an amplification magic circle? How to activate it..." Since they climbed up the castle, they have not stopped exploring.
"I always feel like this place," a knight gestured, "should be able to hold something, like an arrow rest or something?"
This is where the cannons are installed. Each one has an energy value of 10,000 and is filled with magic crystals for use. Eryi didn't buy one.
She was clicking on the [Moving Castle] console.
[Do you want to open the entrance? This operation will consume 1000 mana points in the castle.]
【yes】
She opened the contract panel and released the elf that she had temporarily put away.
Scope of activity: the entire district.
Use Intermediate Heal√ on all creatures that are below full health.
Use Curse Dispel√ on a creature with a Curse status.
"That thing is moving!"
At the center of the castle, a huge circular stone staircase slowly descends.
The soldiers shouted, "Something is flying out!"
Thousands of fluorescent lights slowly fell from the castle and scattered on the injured people.
——She will come down from heaven with angels.
