"But the distortion of this singularity is not over yet, and your duty is not yet complete. Come on, I will send you back. The real battle is about to begin."
Before he could finish speaking, Yuanxiang felt a blur before his eyes, followed by the whistling of wind in his ears. He couldn't explain how the old man had managed to move like that, but when his vision returned to normal, he found himself standing in front of the gates of Uruk, and the old man had vanished from his sight.
"Yuanxiang, are you alright?!"
At that moment, Ishtar arrived aboard her celestial vessel. She first nervously eyed Genji, but then, realizing something, she uneasily gestured with a pistol towards him, repeatedly saying:
"No, no, no, Yuanxiang is still fighting the Mother Goddess, so what exactly are you... huh?"
Before the goddess could finish speaking, a sharp whistling sound from the sky caught her attention. Looking up, she saw a streak of purple light flying into Uruk at an even faster speed than she had just seen, heading towards the temple.
"Ishtar, the wings of the Mother Goddess have been broken."
Genshou mentally gave himself a thumbs up for his prediction of the trajectory, then looked at the goddess in front of him and said:
"But our guesses about the 'Eleven Beasts' might be wrong. Let's go find Gilgamesh and tell him about this. Let's see if the king's preparations have taken this into account."
"You really are Gensho? Wow!!!"
Ishtar murmured in confusion, but upon seeing Gensou's still-healing left foot, she instinctively called out and went to support it. Feeling the familiar touch, Ishtar's expression subtly changed, and she couldn't help but say:
"You idiot, if you can go this fast, why did you make me rush back? Seriously, the wind has blown my hair all over."
"Well, things have taken a bit beyond my expectations. I was prepared to just disappear there."
Yuanxiang sat obediently on the sky boat, pinched his brow, and said:
"In short, let's go find Gilgamesh first. There must be something between this king and Merlin that he hasn't explained to us due to plans or the current situation."
"Those who become kings and magicians are all black-hearted."
Out of habit, Ishtar took the opportunity to attack Gilgamesh, but as the two flew over the city walls, they were astonished to find that the temple in the center of the city showed signs of damage, as if it had been attacked. This left Genji dumbfounded, and he stiffly looked at the goddess beside him and said:
"Um... was the temple already like this when you were up there looking for me?"
"This... I don't think so..."
Ishtar's tone was also somewhat subtle. She had been moving too fast just now, so fast that she could hardly see her surroundings. In addition, she had become so used to the temple that she hadn't paid attention to whether any magical beasts would suddenly appear. Therefore, she was quite guilty when answering the question.
My God, could it be from being hit by my bone?!
Genji felt a chill run down his spine and flew straight towards the temple. As soon as he landed, he saw that the temple was in complete disarray. The once orderly stone slabs were now broken into pieces and scattered all over the ground. Gilgamesh's desk was also broken in two. Moreover, everyone in the temple had some kind of injury, especially Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose abdomen and right leg were covered in blood, as if she had just gone through a deadly battle.
"Yuanxiang, you're back."
At this moment, Gilgamesh, with a long, narrow wound remaining on his forehead, stood up from the steps and said softly:
"Now that you're back, it seems Tiamat's movement speed has been curbed. Very good, the time you've bought us is enough for us to prepare."
"But what's going on here... wait, where's Mr. Li Shuwen? And why is the leopard man gone?"
Yuanxiang looked around, his gaze settling on the broken stone pillar. His experience sparring together these past few days told him it was a mark left by the "Tiger Climbing the Mountain" technique. Could it be...?
"We've been attacked, by the 'Eleven Monsters'."
Quetzal Koyatl, leaning against a pillar with his arms crossed, replied:
“Our previous deduction was wrong. The number of those ‘eleven magical beasts’ who call themselves ‘new humans’ will indeed not increase anymore. However, it seems that a survival of the fittest evolutionary process has occurred among them. Although this will drastically reduce their numbers, those that survive are ‘eleven magical beasts’ comparable to gods, or even surpassing gods. Those guys all possess intelligence that is no less than that of humans. They want to break down our defenses through decapitation operations.”
"This was a miscalculation on my part."
At this point, Gilgamesh frankly accepted the mistake, but then changed his tone and said with great enthusiasm:
"But I am not the kind of person who suffers in silence without seeking revenge. Ishtar, you've returned just in time. Go and find out where those so-called new humans evolved. I'm going to destroy that place right now, consider it a warm-up before the battle against Tiamat!"
"I think you're going to be disappointed."
Yuanxiang recalled what he had seen, shook his head, and said helplessly:
"Their evolution probably originated within the mother goddess Tiamat."
"Varied......."
This answer left Gilgamesh speechless. The king rubbed his temples in exasperation and said softly:
"This is really troublesome. It seems we can only take revenge during the final battle. Gensou, you don't need to watch anymore."
Gilgamesh looked at the boy who was looking around and said:
"Li Shuwen, the Leopard Man, and Leonidas I all had their spiritual foundations damaged and vanished in the attack just now. It was thanks to their bravery that I and Fujimaru Ritsuka survived..."
"I see..."
Although he already had a general idea in his mind, when the result was actually presented to him, Yuanxiang still sighed with some regret. Although they hadn't known each other for long, Mr. Li Shuwen really suited his temperament. If he had the chance, he would have liked to recruit this master to his firm as a consultant to keep things in order.
"It's okay, it's okay."
At that moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka, reeking of blood, came over, patted Gensou on the shoulder, and said with a smile:
"I've obtained the summoning mediums for those three Heroic Spirits. As long as Chaldea's Servant summoning system is powerful enough, and I'm not too unlucky, you'll definitely see them when you come to Chaldea."
"Then it's a deal."
Gengo smiled, reached out and made a pinky promise with Fujimaru Ritsuka, saying with a smile:
"If you don't do that next time we meet, I'll be angry."
"Then lend me all your good luck."
While Fujimaru Ritsuka was laughing it off, Genji also examined her body. Although her uniform was horribly stained with blood, there were no wounds underneath. It seemed that Gilgamesh had used a treasure to save this last Master of humanity.
"Now, let's just wait patiently."
Gilgamesh sat back down on the steps, looked out of the temple, towards the edge of the earth, and whispered:
"Uruk has made all the preparations, and the Goddess of the Underworld is almost ready. Hmph, this is the first time I've ever looked forward to the arrival of a god so much! Hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!"
As time passed, a surging sea of life began to appear outside the city of Uruk, and an astonishing tide of magical beasts began to assault the city's defenses. On the city walls, three hundred and sixty giant crossbows continuously attacked the incoming enemy. When the magical artifacts were exhausted, they used lapis lazuli, which could be used as magical projectiles. When the lapis lazuli was used up, soldiers with certain magical aptitude poured their own magical power into it, turning themselves into the final cannon fire.
Even so, the cannon fire in Uruk gradually subsided. The black sea of life... no, its filthy state was more accurately described as a chaotic tide. The surging black mud had already poured into Uruk, and the monsters began to destroy all the human buildings in their path, which meant that all the soldiers guarding the outer perimeter had perished.
During this process, Gengo also wanted to rescue the soldiers and transfer them to the mountains behind Uruk, avoiding the decisive battleground. However, without exception, they refused Gengo's help. They knew their fate the moment they climbed the city walls and gladly accepted their end. They shouted and sang, pulling the triggers of their giant crossbows without a trace of fear on their faces, as if they were on a picnic in the countryside, as if they were returning to their mother's embrace. They were not believers in the goddess of the underworld, but they regarded death as the most dazzling glory of their lives. When Gengo returned to the temple, Gilgamesh's face was also filled with pride.
"Alright, my soldiers have all fallen in battle, it's my turn now."
At this moment, Gilgamesh rose from the steps and walked to the temple terrace. Looking at the hideous monsters, he coldly summoned a stone tablet. As the book opened, immense magical power emanated from it. Simultaneously, dense golden light shone in the sky, which was obscured by blood-red clouds. Fujimaru Ritsuka looked around and exclaimed in surprise:
"Weren't the soldiers guarding the giant crossbows already dead? Why are these defensive weapons acting on their own...?"
"Hmph, all 360 giant crossbows set up in Uruk were made, imbued with magic, and commanded by me. As long as this body is tortured relentlessly... I'll see how I manage to restrain Tiamat here!"
Gilgamesh's desperate efforts were not without reason. After all, based on the current situation, they could deduce that after the black mud evaporated in the Origin Land and its wings were broken, the magical beasts, who also came from the mother goddess Tiamat, seemed to have acted as human transport aircraft, crowding their mother and moving closer to this place. Especially after the black mud caught up again, the creator god's movement speed was even more astonishing, arriving outside Uruk in a much longer time than expected.
Fortunately, Yuanxiang also seized the opportunity. If they could just delay for a little while, the gates of the underworld would open wide, and they could send the mother goddess Tiamat into the lifeless underworld... What!?
However, at that moment, a tidal wave of magical beasts surged out from the body of the mother goddess Tiamat. In addition to ordinary magical beasts, there were also 'eleven magical beasts' that were difficult to intercept, no matter how much Gilgamesh tormented his body. Even with 360 giant crossbows, he was unable to intercept them.
"The past is here..."
Suddenly, just as Gensou was about to make his move, he felt a scorching heat coming from behind him. Turning around, he saw Quetzalcoatl, the chief god of South America, half-crouched on the ground, one fist pressed against the earth. He smiled slightly at Gensou, then his expression turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice:
"This is true now, and it will be true in the future!"
"Summon the wind!"
"Summon thunder!"
"When Venus shines at dawn, know that the sun also shines brightly in the same place!"
Amidst a soaring chant, Quetzalcoatl slowly rose to her feet, raising her hand high. A magic array composed of intricate runes opened, and a fireball, burning like the sun, fell from its center into Quetzalcoatl's hand. The goddess took a deep breath, her gaze sharp, and roared at the endless horde of beasts before her:
"piedradel (solar stone)!"
Immediately, scorching aurora borealis shot out from the temple in Uruk, and in an instant, the world was cleared!
333 Yay! We made it!
"No, it's not over yet!"
Quetzalcoatl's attack was remarkably effective, but then Romani's warning rang in everyone's ears. They instinctively looked up and saw an overwhelming number of monsters surging out from the body of the mother goddess Tiamat, including the 'eleven monsters' that had attacked them before!
"This is never going to end! Looks like I'll have to teach you a lesson first!"
Ishtar, annoyed, summoned the Skyship, intending to unleash the power originally intended to blast the Mother Goddess into the Underworld upon these detestable monsters. After all, under the cover of these ugly creatures, Gilgamesh's giant crossbow could not effectively strike the Mother Goddess. The creator goddess was advancing at an astonishing speed; she had already broken through the outer walls of Uruk and was charging towards the temple where Gilgamesh was located. However, her foolish older sister had yet to send a signal that the Gates of the Underworld were ready.
"The weapons of the Mesopotamian world cannot harm her, but!"
At this moment, Quetzalcoatl, who had just unleashed his Noble Phantasm, stood in the lava, gazing at the towering creator god, and proclaimed:
"My body is imbued with the divinity of the distant demon realm! What do the gods of Mesopotamia have to fear!"
In her fearless declaration of war, Quetzalcoatl merged the Sunstone into her chest. In an instant, all the intense heat emanating from her vanished, as if the heat itself had been absorbed into her. At the same time, lava-like patterns appeared on the body of this South American goddess, and her eyes seemed to shimmer with the light of the sun. She took a deep breath and stomped her foot on the ground, causing the earth to crack. All her armor shattered, and her long, golden hair, now free of her peculiar crown, billowed high in the wind.
Then, like a volcanic eruption, Quetzalcoatl leaped from the lava and shot into space like a comet amidst rings of sonic boom clouds. In the empty universe, the crimson aurora, like a phoenix in flight, nimbly changed direction and then hurtled towards the blue planet, carrying immense light and heat!
"Tiamat, let me show you the devastating power of our South American city of Sivalba, the force that has wiped out countless lives!"
"Transform my body into a burning boulder!"
"Destroy the earth with a comet!"
"ultimotopepatada (blazing flames, which also burn the gods)!"
With Quetzalcoatl's roar, terrifying flames descended from the sky, and the destructive power summoned by the gods poured down upon the mother goddess Tiamat. Just as she had done against Genshin Impact, the creator goddess let out a howl of "aaa—", erected a barrier, and urged her 'children' to destroy the enemies who intended to harm her.
At the same time, Fujimaru Ritsuka raised her hand without hesitation, casting a Command Seal on Quetzalcoatl, replenishing her magical power. The South American god smiled knowingly, then unleashed all her divine power in one go. In the blink of an eye, the solid barrier was shattered, and the Great South American Impact descended upon the mother goddess Tiamat. In an instant, the goddess's appearance was shrouded in flames. This divine power from Quetzalcoatl also spread in through the exit from which the mother goddess released her 'children,' destroying them and also causing a catastrophic blow to those immature 'children.'
"That's it!"
At this moment, Ereshkigal..., the avatar of the God of the Underworld, appeared beneath the temple, wielding a shovel and shouting:
"The gates of the underworld are ready!"
"We've been waiting for you! Open the door!"
Upon hearing this, Ishtar steered the celestial vessel without hesitation, raised her arm, and shouted. Immediately afterward, the blood-red, gloomy sky transformed into a dazzling galaxy, and Venus in the universe shone brightly.
"To the vast heavens, to the boundless earth..."
Ishtar softly chanted, drawing down the concept of Venus, holding it in her hand, and then transferring it to the celestial vessel, Ma'ana. With all her might, the golden arrow instantly turned purple. The Heavenly Mistress took a deep breath and whispered:
"Now it's up to fate, angaltakigalshe (Mountain Shakes Star's Fire)!"
With a piercing scream from the Noble Phantasm, a massive arrow suddenly shot out, its immense power engulfing the Mother Goddess and shattering the earth beneath her in the next second, causing her to fall into the underworld. At the same time, sharp thunderclaps suddenly resounded in this desolate world of the dead, and bolts of lightning enveloped Tiamat, launching a continuous barrage of attacks.
"Amazing! Each bolt of lightning possesses heat comparable to Ishtar's Noble Phantasm, continuously scorching Tiamat..."
