Although the structure is huge, the speed is fast; it is even faster than a Spaceship.
Sebastian and other Planetary Lords stayed in their respective areas. Although there were many people, it was silent. There was no whispered discussion, as everyone was quietly making the final preparations. They looked slightly nervous, and they didn't talk about newcomers like Sebastian; for some Planetary Lords of Peak Level 3, it is also the first time participating in this kind of authentic war.
After flying for a few hours in the Star Palace, suddenly everyone stood up and looked outside. In the depths of the starry sky in the distance, there was an incomparably colossal fortress; its appearance was startling. Most notably, there were two long and curved horns on this huge fortress, and the whole fort exudes an unsettling aura.
"The Demon Castle-!" Sergey and the others narrowed their eyes.
This is a structure as famous as the Star Palace. Years ago, in the war between the Star Territory and the Abyss, the two sides mainly relied on these two fortresses.
When everyone saw this huge Castle, they realized that the catastrophe is truly coming. It's not just the Planetary Lords like Sebastian; even Nikolaus and other high-level leaders of the major forces were silent, and their expressions became more solemn.
The atmosphere froze unprecedentedly. Both structures were far away, but nothing was said. Same as here, if they wanted to enter the Origin Planet, they had to get close. Just in case, this time all Origin Planets in the Star Territory had Planetary Lords guarding them.
"Our advantage over Demons is..." Sergey said, "We grasped the coordinates of each Origin Planet earlier, so we can enter in advance."
He then shook his head and said, "But it is not difficult to find the Origin Planet, so it is only a matter of time before the Demons find it. However, this gives us time to set up our defenses."
According to the importance of the Origin Planets, they flew to the planets with the higher numbers first. The number 881 that Sebastian was going to was the number of a Level 3 Origin Planet. As for Level 4 and Level 5, they also had their own numbers. Level 3 Origin Planets corresponded to Low-Grade Origin Crystals. Level 4 and 5 grades corresponded to Intermediate-Grade and High-Grade Origin Crystals.
"If I were a Demon, I would attack Level 3 and 4 Origin Planets first," Sergey analyzed. "Once they occupy most of the Level 3 and 4 Origin Planets, it also means that our side has lost."
Sebastian and the others nodded. Low-Grade and Intermediate-Grade Origin Crystals were the most common, while High-Grade ones were very rare. If these Origin Crystals were lost, most Planetary Lords would no longer be able to continue developing. After the Origin Crystal is gone, the Planet will be unable to develop. Even for Sebastian, it would have a major impact.
During the past few days, Sebastian had a lot to do. It wasn't just about knowing the information of the Planetary Lords under him; strategies and tactics also had to be arranged accordingly. This was the duty of the Star Watchers Captains.
"Sebastian-!" At this time, a voice sounded. Sebastian turned his head to look. It was Elle, Aiya, and Aini. Aini looked at Sebastian and the others with a smile and said, "We'll go first, so let's meet later, but try to kill a few Demons also."
Because their strength was prominent, the Origin Planet they were responsible for was of a much higher level.
"Goodbye and good luck," Sebastian said farewell to Elle.
The farewell was simple, but everyone could feel a trace of sadness. Everyone knew that after this parting, many people would probably never have the chance to meet again because this involved a very serious situation. To let the races they created enter the Origin Planet, the Planetary Lord also had to enter at the same time. Only within a certain distance could they sense the race they had created. This made them extremely vulnerable to direct attacks from the opposing side.
There was another point: entering the Origin Planet was easy, but getting out was very difficult, as it took at least half an hour. In that time, it was enough to launch several rounds of attacks.
"Generally speaking, that doesn't happen," Sergey said. "Especially for us Level 3 Planetary Lords, our individual combat power is still a bit lacking. It mainly depends on the battle between the species created by each side. But also be careful, once we are approached by Demons, it is very difficult for us to defeat some of them."
Everyone's expressions turned grim as the power of the Demons was unquestionable. In the past, even though humanity had an absolute numerical advantage, they were still at a disadvantage. A single Demon was even able to fight ten Planetary Lords. The races created by Demons were mainly divided into three levels: Low-Level Demons, Intermediate-Level Demons, and High-Level Demons. The lowest-level Demons were Supernatural species, while the highest were Supernatural Peak species. Above them, there were the more powerful Demon Lords.
"They did not mention this," Jeffery said with a smile. "So I asked privately. If you kill a Demon Lord, then the reward isn't one thousand, but two thousand. The extra thousand is an additional reward."
"Two thousand points?" Sergey's eyes lit up, but he immediately shook his head and said, "Even among all the Demons, Demon Lords are scarce. Their strength is more powerful, and they are almost invincible at the same level. How could they possibly be killed?"
"Is the Demon Lord really that strong?" Kong asked suspiciously.
"You should know how strong the Five-Headed Dragon was, right?" Sergey looked at Kong.
"You mean..." Kong's pupils suddenly contracted as he said, "The Demon Lord is as powerful as the Five-Headed Dragon!?"
Sergey nodded slightly and said, "Possibly even stronger."
Jeffery added, "Otherwise, how could we be facing such a great enemy? It's because the Demon race is excessively powerful. The Demon Lord isn't even the highest level."
"It isn't the highest?" Kong asked in surprise. "If there are beings stronger than Demon Lords, could they be Demigods? If such creatures exist, how can we fight them?"
"Don't worry," Jeffery said with a smile. "This type of Demon only exists in myths, and there seems to be no record of them appearing in the war that took place in the past. But even so, Demon Lords are something we cannot deal with."
At this point, no one had any doubts. During the Star Competition, the Five-Headed Dragon had been enough to slaughter all of Augustus's other Dragons.
"Origin Planet No. 881 will be reached soon. Star Watchers assigned to this planet, please prepare yourself." At this time, a notice sounded.
"Okay, we're nearly there, so let's get ready," Sebastian said. He stood up first and headed toward the nearby Spaceship. The others stopped talking and followed Sebastian.
Half an hour later, the Star Palace stopped near a Planet with an ordinary appearance, but everyone knew that this was an Origin Planet. Only by venturing deep into the Planet could one understand what was truly inside.
"I look forward to your triumphant return." Nikolaus personally saw them off. Every team received the same treatment.
"Yes." Sebastian smiled slightly. Then, taking a deep breath while facing the Spaceship, he issued the order: "So ready your arms, and prepare for planet fall."
The Spaceship departed from the Palace, carrying Sebastian and the Planetary Lords under his command toward the Origin Planet below, and it quickly entered the atmosphere of the planet.
"Among these people, there are many newcomers who are among the most outstanding of this generation." Next to Nikolaus, Volkmar looked at the distant Spaceship and involuntarily sighed.
Nikolaus shook his head and said, "No one can escape this catastrophe. I only hope that a few more of these kids can return safely."
