Chapter 972 Eastern Continent
The approaching glowing vessel belonged to none other than the Nephilim girl, Jinkan Nephilim. It was the same one that carried them out of the Sacred Mountain before.
"Welcome to the Eastern Continent."
The thought of the voice entered his mind. It was one of Jinkan's abilities that allowed her to speak directly to other people's minds.
After what seemed like only a split second, a young man with golden hair jumped out of the vessel. He was the highest-ranking privileged acolyte that came to this planet, Eeshoo Nephilim.
He flew out in the sky on top of a golden disc and immediately after this, Emery saw the sudden appearance of two majestic wings made out of spirit force on the man's back before he casted one of the brightest spells.
[Sun Beam]
Following that, the ray of light immediately enveloped and blasted a large area of ground. The spell was so powerful that it turned thousands of Abyss creatures into dust, and just in a matter of seconds, a vast section of the horde had been eradicated from existence.
Not only that, but the very next instant after that, another group of people were making their appearance as Emery could see three dozen acolytes darting out from the vessel, flying on top of the orbiter. Each group of twelve acolytes were led by one of the three Nephilim acolytes - Simoan, Jordi, and Armand Nephilim.
They took off in three different directions, just like a flock of birds. Every one of them possessed multiple Nephilim's famous [Soaring Shuttle], and they came down, bombarding the horde of Abyss creatures from the sky. As a result of this, each and every creature that was in its paths were pierced and sliced to death.
Splattt Splaatt Splaat!!
The famous and legendary weapon of the Nephilim was used in some kind of flying formation, which made it possible for it to kill a large number of Abyss creatures in the most efficient way. Seeing how effective the weapon in eradicating the Abyss creatures, Emery was secretly amazed.
It was such an unexpected turn of events, and the sudden development that had just happened at the moment put an end to Roran's previous hesitation as he quickly stepped out of the portal.
Magus Bellaine and her saints fighters were following right behind him, as they prepared to charge upon the incoming hordes. Not only that, they also began to form a defensive line before the survivors started to walk out of the portals.
"Push them back! Don't let them come close to the portal!" shouted the prince of the Harlight.
Following that, the glowing vessel arrived right above Emery and at this precise moment, a girl with golden hair came to approach him with a delighted expression on her face.
She greeted him with a grin and then continued to say, "Thank you for delivering them to us."
Emery was caught off guard by her words at first, but he quickly realized what she meant, and subsequently, why the Nephilim had come for them. It was clear that they came for the potential 300,000 worth of points. This number was the approximate amount of points they would receive if the 3 million survivors safely arrived at their base.
As expected of a Nephilim, they were indeed at a different level. The girl was surprisingly very much updated about their situation and came right when they needed them. By this point, it was plain to see that these Nephilim factions had some kind of ways to know things that he couldn't.
Even though it was certainly irritating to give the points - the survivors they had painstakingly gathered, Emery would not mind at all as long as they were able to help in the rescue of these people. It was because at the moment, he placed the utmost importance on doing anything he could to save the lives of the survivors.
"Thank you.. to come and help us," Emery thanked the girl sincerely, and such a reaction seemed unexpected as Jinkan quickly made a surprised expression.
However, the expression only lasted for a moment as her face returned to normal and she ignored such a remark. Instead, her attention was drawn to something else. She stared at Emery's huge spatial portal as well as the glowing wood plant that was attached to his arm.
"Amazing spell indeed for a lower realm acolyte.. You and your abilities certainly never cease to surprise me," said the Nephilim girl sarcastically with a smirk on her face.
The arrival of the Nephilims was like a sudden breeze that certainly made the transfer process and the overall situation going much more smoothly.
Even though it was still a difficult fight, there were much fewer casualties since the Nephilim arrived. This was notably true as a result of the powerful Eesho's endless barrage at the incoming hordes with his powerful spells.
The main problem, on the other hand, was the thing that Emery had been keeping to himself.
The fact that he had been forcing both his body and spirit core to the very edge of their capabilities, and that he had been using his Fey Transformation innate skill to fight against Orion's Divine spell side effect caused him to lose all of his health and stamina.
All the consequences of overexerting his body came into him at once like a tsunami. ꜰʀᴇᴇ ᴡᴇʙ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ. ᴄᴏᴍ
But on top of that, he also had been forcing the limit of his transformation beyond what was considered safe. At this very instant, not only did his spirit core become chaotic, but the blood in his whole body also began to burn and a painful sensation wreaked throughout his entire body.
Even though it could appear that this situation was killing him slowly, Emery had no other option but to sacrifice himself this way. That's why he must keep holding on.
One hour.
The pain was excruciating, threatening to break down his mentality. In fact, if it wasn't because of the constant flow of energy from the spirit being in his arm, Emery would not have survived for as long as he did.
Jinkan, who was standing nearby and appeared to be observing Emery in a casual manner, became aware that something was going on.
Two hours
Emery continued to silently endure the hellish torment, until he had finally managed to move all 3 million survivors into the eastern continent with the last enter being Julian and his group of acolytes.
[1 hour 46 minutes]
As Emery heard the remaining time which was said by Jinkan, he was already and completely exhausted both in body and mind. He did not know how long he could survive with his current condition, and it appeared as though his body was about to break apart.
"Hei!, Don't you stop now, you have one more gate to go to if you want to save these people… I want to see how you gonna do that with your current condition and... with only half the time left.."
Emery took a deep sigh. He wasn't mad at all because the girl did say the truth after all.
Without having any time to rest, Emery once again forced himself to cast the [Spatial Gate]. However, the moment he tried to cast it, his leg felt weak all of a sudden and his body collapsed, dropping to his knee. His condition became even worse, and he threw up blood as there was a sudden pain in his chest.
His friends who just passed through the gate witnessed what happened to Emery. A certain person finally saw his condition and was suddenly alarmed.
Klea rushed to Emery's side and looked at the Nephilim girl with a death stare. with a raising anger, she shouted.
"What the hell did you do?!!"
