What? My cheat code is making my own gold coins explode?

Why would it protect those weak and useless humans?

"Human beings have no value in living; if they do, it is only in those who serve the gods."

"Human beings are worthless except for fulfilling the missions they are given."

"Humans have no will and should all belong to the gods."

"But why would a being comparable to a god save such weak, useless humans who have no will of their own?"

Artemis, the moon goddess, is essentially a bow, 1.5 kilometers long, so she has no other skills besides shooting.

Even when Ultraman Gaia charged at her, Artemis was unable to hit Gaia by swinging the two ends of her bow handle.

However, compared to Gaia's 50-meter height, Artemis's bow was too large and too slow.

If the salvo from the interstellar orbital cannon has no effect on Ultraman Gaia, then what's the point of directly smashing it with the cannon barrel?

Thus, Ultraman Gaia easily broke through to within 3000 meters of Artemis, taking 1 minute and 13 seconds to reach her.

Even if it's not fully charged, it has to be launched—

"You are the gold that pierces through the stars."

Artemis's arrow of light was not aimed at Ultraman Gaia, but at Hercules Island.

After a 1 minute and 13 second exchange, Artemis had figured out the silver-red life form's thought process.

The other side wanted to protect useless humans, and was willing to use their own bodies to block attacks for this purpose.

Therefore, Ultraman Gaia had no choice but to face Artemis's Noble Phantasm head-on; there was no other option.

Can Gaia, detached from the earth, be stopped?

There is no need to block it.

"Chua!"

Ultraman Gaia swiftly clenched his left fist and bent it, while extending his right arm horizontally, accumulating energy in a T-shape. Then, he placed his left fist on his right wrist joint and swung it overhead, completing the energy conversion simultaneously.

Quantum Stream!

The crimson light collided with Artemis's Noble Phantasm, creating a dazzling burst of light at the point of impact!

Ultraman Gaia's momentum was finally interrupted, forcing him to remain high in the sky to exchange fire with Artemis.

The same was true for Artemis, the moon goddess; all the cannons on her body stopped firing, and even the scattered floating cannons were powerless to control and attack Ultraman Gaia.

The beam of light emanating from the opponent's right arm required Artemis to mobilize all the functions of her body to activate her Noble Phantasm in order to deal with the threat from the unknown life form.

"Impossible, impossible, you are just an alien life form."

Although Artemis's Noble Phantasm was not fully charged, her opponent, with a mere 50-meter frame, was able to unleash energy comparable to her own.

It's unbelievable, but it really happened.

What terrified Artemis even more was that her Noble Phantasm was being pushed back by the opponent.

Yes, even though the main cannon of the Luna Kindred is wider than the entire body of Ultraman Gaia, the beam it shoots out is being pushed back at a slow but steady pace.

Artemis is merely a mechanical deity, and over millennia, all her emotions have been worn away.

However, the unknown life form that appeared before her awakened her "doubt" and "panic".

Who exactly are you?

"Why interfere with their choices? Humans take pride in dedicating themselves to the gods."

"But why do you want to distort their will?"

Artemis asked the question, but the electronic components produced a gentle female voice.

However, the Moon Goddess's words and expressions had absolutely no human touch.

Faced with her questioning, Ultraman Gaia simply stared, the quantum streamer in his hand continuing to advance:

3000 meters——

2300 meters——

1600 meters——

400 meters——

Then, there were less than a hundred meters left.

The cannon responsible for launching the Noble Phantasm is suffering from the backflow of energy and is on the verge of damage.

The light on Ultraman Gaia's chest finally began to turn from blue to red, but the quantum streams in his hands remained fierce, determined to shoot this treasure back into Artemis's body!

The entire wave-counting process has taken only 4 minutes and 29 seconds so far, but Artemis has been experiencing endless torment during those 4 minutes and 29 seconds.

In the past ten thousand years, the beams of judgment that shone down upon the earth were but a fleeting moment.

Even though the frequency of archery has increased in the last two years, for Artemis it is just a matter of how many times.

But now, the penultimate Noble Phantasm of his life has been blocked.

The last Noble Phantasm of her life was blocked in front of the main cannon, and the recoiling energy began to destroy her body, which should have been indestructible.

Dying?

On the Atlantic Ocean, the surveillance unit that had been silently following Orion suddenly collapsed on the deck of the Argo. His lover immediately stopped attacking and bent down to help him up.

"Hey! Artemis! What's wrong? Hey!"

"You idiot hunter, Artemis's death means your colleague is going to succeed, isn't it? What are you in such a hurry for? We're fighting the Olympian fleet right now, and you still have time to talk about love?!"

"Shut up, Jason! Focus on commanding your crew! Even without me as your Grand Master, you still managed to shoot down Lunari and break through the fleet, didn't you?!"

"Tsk, do as you please. Throw it away if you want. Don't take it out on the heroes who are still fighting. They might just slap you to death later."

Jason looked up at the spot where Artemis and Ultraman Gaia were still fighting, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Since the monitoring unit is about to die, it proves that the main body is also not far from destruction. That foreigner really did it.

Just as Jason had expected, high in the sky, the quantum stream completely blocked the Moon Goddess's Noble Phantasm deep inside the cannon.

As Artemis, the Machine God, was engulfed in flames and explosions, she was finally unable to continue releasing beams of light. Gaia's beam of light instantly pierced through the main cannon and into Artemis's head!

Before Artemis's consciousness faded, she heard a boy's voice:

"I am both light and humanity."

What is light? And what is humanity?

Artemis, the moon goddess, never had the chance to ask this question. Her brain cells were pierced and destroyed by quantum streams, after which her enormous, longbow-like body came to a complete halt.

Ultraman Gaia flew above Artemis, placing his hands on her still-connected body, while simultaneously fusing and unleashing the light of the earth and the light of the ocean to their maximum potential—

"Chia!"

The Gaia Supreme Version was tasked with propelling this 1.5-kilometer-long broken bow directly onto the only road leading to Olympus within that one minute—

The Void Cavern, the final barrier guarded by Poseidon, the god of the sea!

Chapter 71: Total Collapse, The Hidden Ones Revealed

Can't win.

Looking at the current situation, Odysseus made a judgment.

As the supreme commander, he has already activated his Noble Phantasm, releasing Troia Ippos and joining the war.

but……

On the sea, despite the heavy gunfire, the Olympian fleet suffered a series of defeats.

Of the heroes of the Argo, only Orion could pose a threat to the fleet, but Orion alone was enough; with a single bow and arrow, a ship would sink.

After the Artemis humanoid next to the enemy fell, the three-star hunter fell into an even more violent and grief-stricken state, venting his dissatisfaction and sorrow on the fleet.

As for the other Servants, they only need to deal with the long-range attacks and boarding maneuvers from the Olympian fleet. Bartholomew and Jason are both captains, and their Noble Phantasms are ships that have been modified by the legacy of the gods, making them capable of rivaling Olympian technology.

Odysseus did not participate in this naval battle; his primary objective was to control Troia Ippos and his two other capable Servants to fight the aerial threat together.

Troia Ippos attacks in the form of a wooden horse, carrying the twin gods and Chiron on its head. As for Caenis, who has been stripped of her sea god powers and is left with only half a life, she is currently lying on the ship's deck.

The Freedom Gundam, controlled by an unknown individual, was locked in combat with the Twin Gods and Chiron. Although its technology was inferior to that of the foreigner, its performance had doubled compared to before.

Without a doubt, the thieves of pan-human history used the legacy of the Great God to modify the Freedom Gundam, and then turned it against Olympus.

Dioscuri Castor was the elder brother.

Dioscuri Pollux is the younger sister.

The Twin Gods are two people, but they do share a single spirit origin.

Even if the panel shows Strength A, Endurance A++, Agility B, and the ability to wield dual swords but has short arms and can't reach the Freedom Gundam, then it's still unreachable.

The constant barrage of beams from above made it impossible for the twin gods to lift their heads. Even though they had been enhanced by the legacy of a great god, their bodies still couldn't withstand the attack of a beam as thick as a person.

"Odysseus! Chiron! Give us cover, we're going to destroy this machine."

Lines like the one above have been repeated three times in five minutes, but each time the Twin Gods have failed to break through the Freedom Gundam's barrage of fire.

Yes, the Twin Gods possess the ability to move at [faster than light speed], but when Pollux's sword couldn't cut through the PS armor modified by the Freedom Gundam, the tactic of sneaking up on their backs to assassinate them not only failed to work, but they were instead knocked away by the Freedom Gundam's backpack opening.

It cannot immediately activate its Noble Phantasm after moving, otherwise the Freedom Gundam would also have been unable to escape being shot down by the Twin Gods.

Unfortunately, no matter how high the output, it's ineffective if it doesn't hit the target, even if the Twin Gods' Noble Phantasm is said to ignore physical, magical, and other obstacles.

"Is there really no one who can catch this inferior human creation?!"

After being caught by Troia Ippos, Castor, the elder brother, unleashed a furious and impotent question.

Thankfully, it was Little Da Vinci piloting Freedom who was fully focused on controlling the machine and didn't have time to catch the trash talk from the foul-mouthed twins. If it were Zhao Silai, he would have just turned on his mic.

As Castor said, even in MA mode, the cumbersome Troia Ippos could not catch up with the Freedom Gundam, and the Centaur Sage's arrows were consumed by the Freedom Gundam's head-mounted Vulcan cannon.

The pilots in Freedom Gundam may not be accurate, but they have a constant barrage of firepower. With the added benefit of Ookami's legacy, they are able to damage Troia Ippos's Godsteel armor, instead of just polishing it up like before.
