Chapter 921: Dark Demon, the Divine Chariot (6k for Moon Tickets)
However, if we exclude these disadvantages, the augmentation provided by the Wings of Moonlight is quite terrifying.
Especially after the third flap, the eightfold increase in flight speed allows the Chariot of the Moon Goddess to transform into a meteor in that instant!
Even if it cannot be used for creation, it is still a divine skill for escaping and saving one’s life.
This is a capability that deserves serious attention!
As for the mana deficiency?
It can be replenished with Bliss • Drink Milk!
Since the Chariot of the Moon Goddess is a single entity with the two black horses, it can naturally replenish its mana by feeding the black horses.
Dark looked at the third function of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess — Charge into Battle!
Charge into Battle: The Chariot of the Moon Goddess creates a triangular light array twice the defense at its head, preventing it from being counterattacked during a charge. When using Charge into Battle, the speed of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess increases by 0.5 times.
The description of Charge into Battle is already very clear, there is nothing more to say.
Night Travel Barrier: The Chariot of the Moon Goddess creates a spherical barrier around itself. The barrier consumes 100 points of mana upon activation, and then 6 points of mana per second thereafter. After activating the Night Travel Barrier, the Chariot of the Moon Goddess will completely blend into the night, silently and invisibly. Speed increases by 0.5 times.
The description of the Night Travel Barrier is equally clear; it allows the Chariot of the Moon Goddess to completely disappear in the night, which is an extremely useful skill for concealment, infiltration, and escape.
Like Charge into Battle, the Night Travel Barrier also provides a 0.5 times speed boost.
However, Charge into Battle only offers a temporary boost, whereas the speed boost from the Night Travel Barrier is sustainable.
In daily use without the Chariot of the Moon Goddess, activating the Night Travel Barrier increases the vehicle’s speed.
After understanding the functions of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess, Dark lightly stepped onto the carriage platform.
He first tried to guide the mana he had drawn from the Moon Mirror into the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
To his surprise, this action actually worked!
This means that even in broad daylight, mana could be continuously supplied to the Chariot of the Moon Goddess through this method.
Moreover, after performing this operation, Dark began to consider another potential driver—a Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit!
Unfortunately, Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit was still with the Cosmic Brain Beast in the academy, swindling and trading with others.
He couldn’t summon it for experimentation.
However, Dark took a middle ground approach. He called over the Eevee, instructing it to infuse the carriage with mana.
No matter how much the Eevee meowed, it couldn’t inject any mana into the carriage.
“Is it because the mana properties don’t match?”
Dark pondered for a moment and then summoned the Moon Beast. However, even the Moon Beast’s mana couldn’t be injected either. “Could it be a matter of ownership?”
“Is it because the carriage belongs to the Moon Goddess, so only the Moon Goddess can inject mana?”
Dark then called Eve and conducted an experiment. The result remained unchanged.
Apart from himself (in his Moon Goddess form), no one else could directly inject mana into the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
But using Bliss • Drink Milk, mana could indeed be restored to the Chariot of the Moon Goddess by feeding the black horses.
The difference remained unclear to Dark.
Yet, in this repeated experimentation, fifteen minutes quietly passed.
Suddenly, he had an epiphany and demoted from his Moon Goddess (Divine Rank Armed) form.
The Soul of the Moon Goddess separated from her body and immediately flew toward the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
Yes, the Chariot of the Moon Goddess did not vanish!
Seeing the Soul of the Moon Goddess flying towards the carriage, Dark was truly stunned.
He couldn’t comprehend why the Chariot of the Moon Goddess still existed.
The golems around were also chattering about it. Even Olivia and others were whispering among themselves.
Unlike Dark, who was thinking about why it was different, they were contemplating the purpose of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
Since the carriage doesn’t vanish with the disappearance of the Moon Goddess (Divine Rank Armed),
it could potentially become a daily long-distance transport tool. The main consideration would be the mana issue.
Unless it’s a species with special talents, short-term magical healing would cause increasing temporary resistance with each treatment.
Therefore, relying on Bliss • Drink Milk to repeatedly replenish the consumption of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess is not practical.
And if this problem isn’t solved, the Chariot of the Moon Goddess can only be used as a night-time vehicle.
During the day, it would require consuming the mana stored in the Soul of the Moon Goddess within the Moon Mirror—but that’s too wasteful!
“Let me think, let me think(y_')~”
Dark pondered and suddenly said, “Let’s go find Little Rabbit!”
So he asked Chris to remove the barrier and instructed the Soul of the Moon Goddess to drive the carriage, boarding it for the first time.
After entering the carriage, the curious golems poured in one after another.
Dark circled the carriage once and ordered the Soul of the Moon Goddess to activate the Night Travel Barrier.
With the activation of the Night Travel Barrier, the carriage silently merged into the darkness.
The continuous consumption of the Night Travel Barrier is 6 mana points per second, matching the carriage’s mana requirement.
Together, they perfectly offset the passive mana recovery of Moonlight. The Soul of the Moon Goddess quietly steered the Chariot of the Moon Goddess toward the cafeteria.
The carriage finally stopped beside the cafeteria entrance.
Not a single passing student noticed the arrival of the carriage. When Dark got off, it startled several students. Remembering he hadn’t eaten all day, he entered the cafeteria with Olivia and others to queue for food.
At this hour, the cafeteria was bustling with people, but today it was unusual. Most of the crowd gathered in one corner, leaving fewer people queuing for food.
Dark suspected many students had already eaten early since they were already inside the cafeteria.
After ordering meals for the maids, he sat near the corner. “Let’s eat first.”
A while later, the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit squeezed out of the crowd, holding a stump, and headed over.
Dark temporarily put down his utensils and picked it up.
The little feet of the “Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit” kicked wildly, trying to touch the ground.
But Dark carried it out of the cafeteria.
Despite most people’s attention being on the Trading Store of the Mind, some still shifted their gaze over.
Dark exited the cafeteria and walked to the door, stepping directly into the Night Travel Barrier.
The sudden appearance of the black carriage startled the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit.
But immediately, it reached out to grab the carriage.
Dark realized his guess might be correct and placed the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit on the carriage.
Then, a glow appeared on the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit.
The Soul of the Moon Goddess, seated atop a black horse, frowned.
She noticed the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit was trying to claim ownership of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess!
Of course… this was unacceptable!
So she immediately lifted the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit by its armpits.
Dark had to say, “Just for an experiment!”
The Soul of the Moon Goddess released control, granting the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit ownership of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess!
Ultimate Skill, Fairy Armed, activated!
Even without a record, the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit could operate any vehicular armament.
Now, it truly had ownership of the Chariot of the Moon Goddess. As expected, it could now provide mana support to the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
“How can the Moon Goddess’ chariot lack a moon rabbit?”
Dark’s single sentence made the Soul of the Moon Goddess accept the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit driving the Chariot of the Moon Goddess.
With the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit driving, the Chariot of the Moon Goddess had an endless supply of mana!
This originally mysterious carriage instantly became even more powerful!
With this endless mana,
daytime travel, Night Travel Barrier, or Wings of Moonlight could be utilized freely.
Unfortunately, the Fairy Tale Animal · Little Rabbit could only record and summon existing vehicular armaments.
Before being summoned by the Moon Goddess (Divine Rank Armed), the Chariot of the Moon Goddess was considered non-existent.
Otherwise, it could have been summoned directly, bypassing the Moon Goddess (Divine Rank Armed)!
Of course, one shouldn’t be too greedy.
After confirming the results of this experiment, Dark returned to the cafeteria happily to continue eating.
The atmosphere in the cafeteria was slightly odd, but the students seemed to enjoy it.
Looking at the Cosmic Brain Beast surrounded by the crowd, Dark wondered if all the “wheat” that could be cut had been harvested today?
“After absorbing tonight, my mental power will grow again.”
“If we return safely from this mission, the harvested wheat should have regrown, allowing us to harvest again!”
“Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!”
