Such a blessing is higher than the heavens.

She can never repay her kindness.

Suddenly, Ishtar's mind cleared, and she still believed that she had done nothing wrong; the only ones at fault were those greedy humans.

They actually want her to work for free?

No way!

But the facts were undeniable, and she truly had nothing to say in response, given the very real fact that she had a poor reputation among humans.

However, seeing that she had unusually kept quiet, Black Gun Doll had no intention of continuing to make sarcastic remarks.

She simply disliked Ishtar's behavior, and her sarcasm stemmed from the guy's stubbornness and the fact that he had repeatedly provoked her.

Since Ishtar had shut up, I naturally had no intention of continuing the argument.

Ishtar was also surprised that this guy didn't mock her.

"You rascal, are you... mute?"

She asked, somewhat puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Black Gun was speechless.

She was just too kind; she clearly gave this guy too much face.

Ishtar doesn't deserve any sympathy!

Similarly, this happened right before the two of them had even stopped arguing.

"This is--!?"

As Luo Wei began to actively explore the city, he suddenly realized something. He turned his head sharply and looked into the dark alleyway to the side.

Right there, in a shadow that almost everyone overlooked, sat an old beggar, dressed in tattered clothes and sporting a white beard, like a statue.

"Ok?"

The other party seemed to have noticed Luo Wei's gaze. The old beggar, who had been sitting in the darkness in the corner, seemingly waiting to quietly decay, also raised his head slightly, revealing a face that was mostly obscured but still dignified, and a pair of sharp, knife-like eyes looking at Luo Wei.

"What are you doing here...?"

He was about to ask King Hassan a question, but the other man spoke first.

"—O chosen one who wishes to save the world, the end is near, and besides the old man of the mountain, there is another who has the right to inherit the crown, and that time has come."

"The gates of the underworld are right beneath your feet, hurry..."

Before Luo Wei could finish speaking, he stood up, picked up the worn-out bowl, and disappeared into the alley, his figure vanishing from sight.

"Grand Assassin..."

"Another one who inherits the principles of the Grand Order? Does this mean a new Grand Order has appeared in this singularity, and the Counter Force has already activated the decisive technique, Heroic Spirit Summoning? Who exactly is the Grand Servant being summoned? Will other Grand Servants be summoned later...?"

Luo Wei muttered to himself, beginning to think seriously.

Just as he was deep in thought, a voice called out from behind him again.

He turned around and saw Ishtar, who had just been defeated and subdued by Black Lancer Alter once again, calling out to him.

"Hurry up and come with me, what are you standing there for, Master?"

She called out loudly.

Seeing this, Lowe nodded and walked over. They hadn't seen King Hassan appear, so they didn't know what he had seen.

“Ishtar, now that we’ve arrived at the city above the underworld, where is the entrance? Can we just dig down?” Lovi asked.

"What are you thinking? You don't actually believe that the underworld is right beneath this city, so you just want to dig it open with brute force, do you?"

"Is not it?"

"Of course it's not that simple. After all, that's the underworld, the abode of the gods. How could it be found so easily? It can only be opened when the right time and the right latitude and longitude are in place."

"What is the correct time?"

Ishtar said, "Since it's the underworld, we can only enter at night, when the entrance will open automatically and the defenses will be weakest. The correct coordinates and latitude and longitude are in the area on the outskirts of the city. We just need to wait until nightfall and then use our absolute power to break through and enter. So, we can just wait in the city for now."

"So that's how it is. I was right. The underworld here does indeed have special conditions."

Rowe nodded. After hearing Ishtar reveal this information, he knew he had indeed come to the right person.

"So that's how it is. The underworld here really doesn't move."

Black Gun nodded, and roughly understood the difference between the underworld here and his own side.

"Huh? Your underworld can move?" Ishtar asked curiously.

"Pretty much. After all, Merlin said that the location of the Land of Shadows is uncertain and can move, which is why it is so difficult to find," Black Gunner Alter replied.

"It can move... Is this a spaceship from somewhere?"

Upon hearing this, Ishtar said speechlessly, "In that case, can we really deal with all the dead souls on earth?"

Artoria was also unaware of this, since she had never died.

This is the difference between different regions.

Compared to these two regions, the underworld, which mortals still have a chance to enter, is far more significant, chaotic, and terrifying than the hell in Luo Wei's territory.

Demon kings and fallen angels are all down there, and hell is even divided into layers.

Because wandering around the city is never a good idea.

So Lovi used a few gems to rent a fairly large house in the city, even though the other party cried and dared not ask them for money, only begging Ishtar to leave quickly.

This incident made Ishtar even more ashamed, and she even wanted to argue with the guy who spread rumors about her, but she was dragged away by Rowe.

Later, after realizing that taking Ishtar along to ask for information would only scare her away, Lovi told Ishtar to stay in the room and not come out, while Black Lancer stayed there to watch over her and prevent her from causing any more trouble. Then he went out alone to investigate the surrounding area.

"Ok?"

Just as he stepped out of the house, intending to first ask the city's residents what was going on, why it hadn't been attacked by monsters, and who designed this Egyptian-style layout, he was about to leave.

He had only been outside for a short while when he saw a crowd beginning to converge towards the center of the square, so he followed along out of curiosity.

Soon after, Luo Wei, standing in the center of the crowd, looked up and clearly saw a familiar figure, and heard a very familiar crying sound.

"Injustice! Injustice! Utter injustice! I'm really not a liar, I just came here to find something! I dug the pits randomly just to get to the underworld, I didn't mean to cause any damage! Those women were lusting after my good looks, I didn't seduce them, I'm the victim here!!"

That familiar voice, coupled with that tuft of white hair tied to the pillar, made it obvious who it was.

A silver-haired monster in a white robe was bound hand and foot to a pillar, with wood piled up at his feet. On the other side, a priest wearing a shamanic mask held a torch aloft, ready to burn Merlin to ashes, while the crowd below cheered.

"Shut up! Outsider!"

Faced with Merlin's tearful pleas, the masked priest sternly rebuked him, then raised his torch and said fiercely, "No matter how much you try to justify yourself today, it will be to no avail. First, you dug a pit in the temple, offending the majesty of the gods. Moreover, you even dared to seduce the priests of the temple. Your crime is compounded, and you shall be burned at the stake!"

"it is good!"

"OK!!"

"Burn him alive!!"

"Burn him alive!!!"

The crowd below also raised their arms enthusiastically, and then their emotions became excited.

Merlin, who was tied to the pillar, trembled with fear at the torchlight: "I'm innocent! I really didn't know she was your wife! If I had known, I would have finished her off quickly and wouldn't have let you catch her!!"

Upon hearing this, the priest on the altar turned even darker, and his hands were visibly trembling.

Luo Wei glanced at the situation above and was also speechless.

He never expected that he would run into Merlin, who was out searching for the Tablet of Destiny, here, especially in such a setting.

However, the moment he saw this guy, Luo Wei jumped up from below and kicked away the torch in the priest's hand.

"What are you doing here? And why are you in this state?"

He glanced at Merlin behind him and asked.

"Hey? Luo Wei!" Hearing the familiar voice, the large white cockroach tied to the pillar seemed to see a savior and screamed in a grotesque voice, "Hurry up and save me, Luo Wei, save me! I'm going to be burned to death!!"

However, Luo Wei ignored him and instead looked at the priest he had kicked aside, asking, "What exactly happened?"

The priest originally intended to send someone to capture Lovi as well, but then someone said that Lovi had come in with Ishtar and that they seemed to have a good relationship, so his expression became very wary.

Although he, a believer in Ereshkigal, deeply disliked Ishtar, he was aware of the difference between mortals and gods, not to mention that Ishtar was right there in the city. So he dared not get angry, but when he heard Lovi's question, he didn't know how to answer.

After all, it's really too much to ask a victim to recount such a thing in person.

So, the other priests stepped forward at this moment, and whispered something in Luo Wei's ear. After listening to the whole process, Luo Wei fell silent, looked at the aggrieved party with sympathy, and then silently stepped down from the stage.

"You may continue."

Upon hearing this, Merlin's eyes widened, and he shouted, "Love! You heartless bastard, save me! I've helped you so many times, how can you just stand by and watch me die?!"

Luo Wei remained expressionless.

I truly don't have the courage to associate with perverts.

Anyway, Merlin can't be killed, and as a Servant, he can't be burned to death by flames. At most, he'll just be a bit disheveled, which is a good lesson for him.

"Since this has nothing to do with you, then continue the execution!"

Upon seeing this, the priest, who had been feeling dejected, immediately broke into a sinister smile and approached with a torch.

"No!!"

Merlin screamed in agony.

"..."

Lo Wei ignored it.

"—!!"

The people below are watching the show.

However, just as Merlin was about to be purified by the flames, a rhythmic knocking sound suddenly came from the street not far away.

The moment the sound appeared, the once noisy altar fell silent. The onlookers stepped back to make way, and the priest who was about to carry out the execution knelt respectfully in the direction of the sound.

"The messenger of the Queen Mother of the Underworld has arrived!"

It's unclear who shouted it first, but then everyone joined in.
