Curse Reply: I'm going to fight the Myriad Corpse Immortal, the highest level one!

Xia Jie is a pragmatic person. Since Gilgamesh's old flame "Enkidu" is genderless, Xia Jie will not call Gilgamesh the oldest gay man.

Even so, the retort of "You are the bastard" enraged the proud Gilgamesh.

The "Golden Gate," possessing all the wealth in the world, was activated. Chains shot out from the golden ripples, attempting to bind Xia Jie's limbs.

The chains are called "Chains of Heaven." The higher the divinity of the target, the stronger the chains become, making them a special weapon against divinity.

Xia Jie gave Doubao a look, then exerted his strength to shake off the Heavenly Lock that was binding him. Even without activating his Root Rank, he was not afraid of the Heavenly Lock, despite lacking divinity.

"Since the contestants are in such a hurry, then everyone should enter the venue ahead of time."

Xia Jie, carrying the livestreamer on the ground, nimbly dodged another wave of Gilgamesh's attacks.

He didn't quite understand why Gilgamesh, a Servant who loved to talk trash, would still not use his two true trump cards, even though he was so angry he didn't even feel like talking trash.

EX-rank Anti-World Noble Phantasms: Star of Equality and Destruction, and also EX-rank Star of Omniscience and Omnipotence.

EX level is an abbreviation of "extreme," meaning exceptional or above-average.

From Gilgamesh's perspective, given that Noble Phantasm bombardment and the Chains of Heaven are proving ineffective, facing a mysterious figure like himself who possesses both strength and skill, he should first use "All-Knowing and All-Powerful Star" to open the box, discern his weaknesses, and then retrieve a targeted Noble Phantasm from "Gate of Babylon" to kill him.

Could it be that, even now, Gilgamesh still feels that someone like him, a "mixed-race cultivator," is unworthy of his full power?

Never mind, it's not important, because it's already 12 o'clock, and the Holy Grail War will begin with a new day.

An invisible roar erupted from the city center, sweeping across the entire Snowfield City in an instant.

Xia Jie felt a lightness in her hand, and the cameraman in her hand vanished into thin air. The bloodthirsty American spectators watching from the end of the street also disappeared without a trace.

Out-of-control vehicles collided on city streets, emitting metallic clangs, while flames and thick smoke rose from all directions of the city.

And hidden beneath this noise is the snowfield city that has lost its "life".

Every place where life should exist has now become a dead zone.

There are no green plants in the flower pots, no insects on the road, no grass or trees in the park, and no humans in the buildings.

Even though the lights of Xueyuan City were still on, an unsettling sense of emptiness gradually emerged amidst the chaotic disorder.

To those watching the live stream, the entire Snowfield City suddenly split in two. With the earth as a mirror, everything inanimate in Snowfield City was perfectly reflected in it.

This optical reflection, which should have remained on the surface of a mirror, now possesses real depth. Under the power of Doubao's magic, it gradually constructs a mirror space that is both underground and not underground.

"Goodbye, Gilgamesh. As the second referee, it's not convenient for me to stay in the arena forever."

Xia Jie tilted her head to dodge an arrow, then smiled and waved at Gilgamesh.

Bye-bye!

By the time the next wave of Noble Phantasms was launched, Xia Jie's figure had already disappeared.

"A Reality Marble?"

Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Tsk! You lowly rat from the gutter, how dare you try to fool me, Your Majesty?"

As Gilgamesh reached his right hand, a portal of light appeared, and a hand clad in golden gauntlets reached into it, first plunging into his entire forearm, and then slowly being pulled out.

It was a huge golden key, and also the key to the treasure trove of the Hero King, the "Golden City".

The key was raised, and countless crimson loops spread out from the space. Then, the EX-rank Noble Phantasm, the creation sword "Ea" from Sumerian mythology, appeared and fell into Gilgamesh's hands.

The cylindrical, jet-black blade is covered with crimson lines resembling electrical circuits, and the primordial chaos from the beginning of creation flows from its body.

"To recount the origins..."

As Gilgamesh chanted the release incantation for his Noble Phantasm, the three-sectioned black and red sword began to rotate, and a strange wind pressure capable of cleaving through space gathered from the sword.

"Heaven and earth are separated, and there is no celebration of their opening."

"To cleave the world is my sword of discord."

As the chanting continued, the clouds in the sky were also connected by wind pressure, converging into a huge eye of the storm.

Beneath a storm of dark clouds, crimson lightning relentlessly struck the buildings of Snowfield City, cleaving several unfortunate structures into scattered ruins.

"The mortar of stars, the hell of heaven, is the end of the eve of creation."

"To submit to them even unto death."

"Heaven and Earth are incompatible—"

—A pioneering star!!!

Gilgamesh gripped the golden hilt of his sword tightly and, in a fit of rage, forcefully swung the sword Ea toward the Mirror Space itself.

A Reality Marble is a grand magic spell that materializes the caster's inner "mental landscape" into reality. It is the magic spell closest to "magic" and is considered a forbidden spell by the Mage's Association.

The principle is to replace the original large world with the caster's small world while keeping the realm unchanged, so that the surrounding space changes into a completely different landscape.

It can also be called the "World Egg," and maintaining its inherent barrier requires a vast amount of magical power.

This thing is similar to the domain expansion of a sorcerer; it is the magician's ultimate technique and finishing move.

Unfortunately, as a Noble Phantasm against "boundaries", Ea is not capable of truly creating the world or destroying planets, but it is more than enough to deal with the alienated space of the Realm Marble.

The mirrored Snowfield City began to tremble violently. Wherever the violent wind pressure of the Ea sword passed, cracks appeared in the space, just like a mirror on the verge of shattering.

"Damn rat, I'll finish you off once I smash this place to pieces!"

As he watched the stage built by the "mastermind" crumble bit by bit, Gilgamesh's lips curled into a pleased smile atop the flying boat.

He couldn't wait to see Xia Jie's expression when she broke down.

One breath, two breaths, three breaths... The faint smile on the Hero King's lips went from natural to stiff, and then from stiff to forced.

The space before them was clearly riddled with cracks, yet it stubbornly held on like a piece of special glass that was still connected despite being broken.

Moreover, in the reflection of the crimson eyes, the cracks that had been created were fading and shrinking, showing faint signs of healing.

In the real Snowfield City, Doubao independently maintained the supply of magic to the mirror space while using the bombardment of the Ea sword to deeply study the essence of the mirror, rapidly deducing and iterating in his mind, and then using the results to further strengthen the mirror Snowfield City.

Unconvinced, Gilgamesh wielded Ea, concentrating the power of his Noble Phantasm and blasting it towards the same area, attempting to break through the space's limits.

This did have some effect; the cracks in the impacted space were as dense as a spider web, but it just didn't break apart.

Ultimately, it still fell short by a little.

Gilgamesh sheathed Ea, his face grim.

Before his first attack shattered the mirror space, Gilgamesh, realizing things were getting out of hand, secretly used "Omniscient Star," which allowed him to see his opponent's information.

In his eyes, the steamed bun was alright; even though the panel was so luxurious it looked a bit fake, it wasn't completely beyond his comprehension.

Since only the omniscient "Omniscient and Omnipotent Star" can take effect, it means that no matter how impressive Doubao's abilities are, he is still an opponent on the same level as himself.

But Xia Jie is different. This mysterious magician who calls himself Xia Jie is nothingness in his eyes. The only information he can find is an unchanging blank.

I never imagined he was a magician of this caliber.
