In Type-Moon, it all starts with adopting Sakura.

The two are contradictory, and there must be something wrong with one of them. So what is the right thing to do for oneself?

He was once again lost in confusion and desperately craved answers.

Thinking this, Kirei Kotomine immediately withdrew his confused gaze from the direction of Ryudouji Temple and shifted his focus back to the correct spot where the Greater Grail was about to descend: below the Fuyuki City Gymnasium. He took a step forward and began to move towards that spot with all his might.

For some reason, his intuition told him that perhaps this time he could find the real answer there.

With this thought in mind, Kirei Kotomine, who was yearning for the answer in his heart, stopped and sprinted towards the stadium with all his might, wanting to find the true answer in his heart there.

His steps quickened, and his figure gradually disappeared into the distance. Then, not long after he left,

A middle-aged man in a red suit, with a goatee and a cane, also caught up with them.

He stared intently at Kirei Kotomine's retreating figure as he walked towards the stadium, clenching his fist so tightly that the mercury sword stained with his own blood hummed in his hand.

"I've finally found you... you damned traitor!!"

Tokiomi Tohsaka cursed under his breath, his former refined and amiable demeanor completely gone. At this moment, his eyes were as dark and sinister as a wild beast, searching for its target and ready to devour it.

He then followed the direction Kirei Kotomine had gone and ran at full speed toward the Fuyuki City gymnasium.

At this moment, the world has once again completed a closed loop.

……

Meanwhile, inside Ryudong Temple.

It was light, a blinding golden light that illuminated the entire world, swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks. Countless weapons poured down from the golden portals of light at near-sonic speed, like golden waves.

Completely enraged and utterly devoid of interest in continuing the game, Gilgamesh hovered in mid-air, riding a golden torrent of divine weapons that poured down upon Scáthach below.

"Come on! Queen of the Land of Shadows, no... you damned old hag! Show me what you've got! Perform with your cunning Master and me, and give me a little pleasure!!"

"You dare to speak so boldly, Gilgamesh! Are you prepared to pay the price for your words and actions once again?!"

Scáthach spun her magic spear, and terrifying magic power overflowed, echoing through the night sky. The entire mountain of Ryudouji Temple trembled violently because of the terrifying magic power she unleashed at that moment.

"Master!"

“I understand. In the name of the Command Spell, Scáthach unleashes her Noble Phantasm.”

She looked up to face the golden king in the sky, then ignored the rain of magical artifacts falling from the sky, and swung her spear again.

"—The Lance That Pierces Through Death (Gáe Bolg Alternative)!!"

"Damn bastard, is that all you know how to do?!"

Seeing the purple light attacking him again, Gilgamesh's brow twitched violently. He then summoned Vimana and ascended into the sky at lightning speed once more. He waved his hand, and the golden ripples in the sky doubled in size. While dodging the purple light, he also locked onto the target with the golden portal. The next moment, hundreds of Noble Phantasms from the treasury unleashed a saturation-like devastation on Scáthach below at supersonic speed. Facing the Queen of the Land of Shadows, whom he was incompatible with but whose strength was not to be underestimated, Gilgamesh used terrifying firepower capable of leveling half of Fuyuki City.

"Boom—!!"

The violent explosion caused a dramatic change to the ground. Amidst the rain of explosive light, all the buildings above Ryudouji Temple were directly destroyed. This time, Gilgamesh did not recall his Noble Phantasm as usual, but instead threw it down as a disposable item in the form of a fantasy collapse, thus maximizing its power.

Rumble—!!!

The terrifying shockwave and immense power of the explosion leveled everything within a radius of several kilometers. The force pulverized plants, trees, and even rubble, reducing the century-old temple to ashes. The horrifying noise was clearly audible even to residents of Fuyuki City, several kilometers away. Sleeping residents were jolted awake and rushed out of their homes, staring in disbelief at the continuous explosions erupting from the direction of Ryudou Temple, thinking it was another missile attack. The golden light flashing in the night sky and the thick black smoke billowing from the collapse of illusions appeared to them like the smile of a demon.

Missiles again?! What's going on?! Fuyuki City has been attacked again!! Where are the Self-Defense Forces?! Where are they?! Please save Fuyuki City!!

"Hmph, you mongrel, now you know how powerful I am."

Gilgamesh, still suspended in mid-air, continued to unleash his terrifying firepower downwards. After a while of intense venting, he gradually reduced the number of portals, then snorted coldly and looked down at the location of Lovi and Scáthach, ready to appreciate their current miserable state.

however--

"Heh, is this all you've got, Gold Pikachu?"

Gilgamesh's veins bulged as he heard Scáthach's annoying voice again. At that moment, Scáthach was hiding behind Lovi, giving him a provocative look.

"How come your strongest attack couldn't even break through Master's magical defense? Hey, King of Heroes, do you still have enough weapons in reserve?"

Blue and brown angel figures appeared before Lovi, symbolizing the earth under protection and the hurricane that heals. The two defensive forces were maximized by the Sage's Staff, and they actually formed a barrier to withstand Gilgamesh's barrage.

Without giving Gilgamesh any further instructions, Scáthach, who had already finished charging up, raised her hand and unleashed two scorching crimson magic spears at him. Their speed was no less than that of Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, one long and one short, attacking the Radiant Ship from two different directions, aiming to tear apart anything that stood in her way.

"Damn it! He really dares to say that!!"

Gilgamesh cursed angrily, preparing to control Vimana to take off and dodge the two rapidly shooting crimson demonic spears.

However, the next moment, his body suddenly sank, and the increased gravity he was experiencing, along with the precarious golden ark, made him realize that something was wrong.

"You bastard!!" He suddenly looked down at Luo Wei, who was exerting gravity control on him, and couldn't help but curse.

It can defend, it can heal, and it can even provide crowd control—this damn kid's abilities are just too annoying!!

However, the situation was already predetermined at this moment. In a brief moment of mistake, Vimana's ship was directly struck by the two vermilion demonic spears, with no way to avoid it.

Two extremely violent energies suddenly erupted in the golden night sky, their target the golden ship soaring through the heavens.

Boom—!!

With the precise strikes of the two demonic spears, the powerful magic effortlessly pierced through Vimana in the sky. The collision between the two treasures instantly triggered an incredibly terrifying and violent reaction. The intense flashes and boundless flames produced by the explosion of the two different supreme powers were dazzling even in the night sky that had already been dyed golden by dawn.

Although different in nature, the equally terrifying mushroom cloud once again appeared above this country, swaying and blooming wildly, weighing a heavy weight on the hearts of those who witnessed it.

Upon witnessing this scene, some elderly people who had experienced that brutal war looked sorrowful, while some with weaker mental fortitude were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground. Some even cried out in pain and fell to the ground, just like the golden ship that fell from the sky.

As the first firework flickered and burst into bloom, Fuyuki City remained an exceptionally peaceful night.

however……

The battle between mythical heroes continues.

※※※※※※※

……

……

14,000!!

I wonder if the software update was just for nothing.

Ugh……

I was so frustrated because I ran out of drafts for the last chapter that I wrote it in a rush and it caused some problems.

We've managed to get the rhythm back, albeit barely.

However, I still can't write those grand-scale fight scenes. I'm so bad at it!!

(QAQ!!)

By the way, I'd like to recommend a friend's book: "Giving Xianzhou a Little Minecraft Shock".

Chapter 85 Fuyuki City Gas Explosion Incident

Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!

Golden light dyed the dark night sky golden, and countless different kinds of magical artifacts poured down from the sky like a torrential rain, crashing heavily to the ground and exploding with extremely ear-piercing explosions.

The air and the soil were permeated with a rich magical aura.

The area within a few kilometers of Ryudong Temple.

The continuous explosions, along with the terrifying force that shook the heavens and earth, caused the residents of Fuyuki City, who were still immersed in their dreams, to jolt themselves awake in panic.

Then, in a state of panic and terror, they began to flee, frantically trying to escape to the relatively safer places on the outskirts of the city, or they crawled directly into special air-raid shelters underground in the city, trembling and praying for the Self-Defense Forces to rescue them.

The entire city of Fuyuki was plunged into panic, and a terrifying shadow once again loomed over people's hearts.

On that day, the residents of Fuyuki City were once again reminded of the fear of being dominated by war.

Outside, thousands of meters above the ground, blinding golden light and explosions continued to erupt uninterruptedly.

At this moment, the Radiant Ship Vimana, soaring through the night sky, also erupted with the most dazzling golden flames.

This time, the golden airship from ancient mythology was no longer just a simple means of transportation; it began to play its greatest role on this brutal battlefield. On both sides of the golden hull, countless powerful firepower burst forth from the night sky, their magical light falling like a dazzling meteor shower, relentlessly crashing down upon the hills below, now reduced to scorched earth.

Rumble—!!!

A deafening clap of thunder suddenly rang out, followed by a terrifying explosion that made the earth seem as if it had been plowed by a bull from the sky, affecting all the buildings in Fuyuki City, and causing the skyscrapers to shake violently.

Knowing that the Queen of the Land of Shadows below, who had lived for countless years, was most skilled in martial arts, Gilgamesh did not dare to confront this ancient man, whose martial arts had reached their peak, head-on in order to ensure victory. Instead, he chose to keep his distance and unleash his full power.

Using the superior mobility of the Radiant Vessel Vimona, she halted herself in the sky, then unleashed a barrage of bombardments on the entire area below using the countless ancient weapons it carried and the full power of the Royal Treasury. Her aim was to circumvent the opponent's advantages and deplete Scáthach's stamina and mana through this tactic, ensuring her continued invincibility.

To this end, he even resorted to the unusual technique of using the Illusion Collapse, which he only used when facing his closest friends, in an attempt to inflict maximum damage on the Queen of Death below and drive her into a desperate situation.

This time, Gilgamesh put aside his arrogance, proactively analyzed the situation, and began to go all out.

And his idea was indeed correct.

Even though she is a top-tier Servant, Scáthach doesn't possess any special divine artifacts or any decent legends that elevate her to the level of a supreme Noble Phantasm.

In both history and mythology, Scáthach is described simply as follows: "She once killed a god with a human body, and her martial arts have reached their peak."

From the perspective of strength, such a description is enough to place her at the top of the Heroic Spirits. However, compared to a certain second father of fungi, the golden and ancient king, the ancient fat tiger who can use all kinds of mythical artifacts, her performance is far inferior.

Scáthach was confident that if Gilgamesh were arrogant enough to dare to fight her at close range, or give her the opportunity to do so, she was absolutely certain that she could pierce his heart and brain together in the shortest amount of time, and then tear his arrogant and hateful mouth apart with her own hands.

However, Gilgamesh, who was also aware of this and had already taken a hit from the Causal Spear before the battle even started, would never give Scáthach the chance for close combat.

The ancient nuclear warheads aboard the Radiant Ship, along with the Gate of Babylon, relentlessly rained down upon the enemy, demonstrating the ship's full strength and determination in the face of this battle. The ship was prepared to overwhelm Scáthach, this troublesome opponent, in one fell swoop, leaving her no chance to turn the tide.

The plan was indeed carried out very well, and Gilgamesh made full use of all his advantages, without the slightest negligence in the battle.

What he didn't expect was that that bastard Lovi had intercepted all the Command Seals that should have been his in advance. This made Scáthach completely different from what he had predicted. With the powerful support of multiple Command Seals and infinite mana supply, Scáthach, who was originally skilled in martial arts, was able to change her usual behavior and successfully unleash a continuous barrage of Noble Phantasms. She was even able to put on a thrilling Noble Phantasm exchange with the Golden King who sat on the throne of heaven. Moreover, with the strange defensive power of the kid below, his original firepower coverage not only had no effect, but the other party also seized the opportunity to turn the tables.

--call out!

--call out!!

Two ear-piercing whooshing sounds suddenly rang out, and two crimson demonic spears ripped through the sky in the blink of an eye, instantly arriving with their target pointing directly at the golden throne that had previously seemed unattainable.

"Useless, useless! You think two mere demonic spears, each at the pinnacle of martial arts, can reach me? Don't be so naive! You old hag from the Land of Shadows!!"

Faced with Scáthach's counterattack, Gilgamesh still wore a cold smile, intending to use the same trick again to control the airship to take off at high speed to dodge the two powerful magic spears coming from below, and then continue to use the advantage of high altitude to carry out a higher intensity of firepower coverage.

However, what he didn't expect was...

During the battle, just as Gilgamesh was completely focused on Scáthach, who was using Command Seals and magic power like they were free, the magician Lovi, whom he had subconsciously overlooked, also played his part at the crucial moment and completed a precise coordinated attack with Scáthach.

--call out!!
