In Zongman, he transformed into Fu Hua at the beginning

Ai Lei, whose face was still blushing, was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands: "Wait!? No, no! Putting aside the question of how to open the door from such a distance, are you serious about imprisoning your mother in the underworld!?"

"Is there something wrong?" Amber frowned. "Tiamat's characteristics cannot be resolved on the ground. If we can't bring her to the underworld..."

“..Woo!”

Seeing Amber's expression, Ailei, who was already feeling guilty, gritted her teeth, suppressed her panic, and began to think about the feasibility.

But in the end, she shook her head with difficulty. "It's not impossible to make Tiamat fall into the underworld, but... the gate to the underworld can't be opened from such a distance. You all know that Ishtar and I were summoned by the chief priest. In fact, we have only been in the world for less than a year."

"This year isn't enough for me to expand the underworld to that point. In fact, aside from the city of Kusa, I can only open gates in Uruk and the North Wall."

I should be able to finish it in four chapters, but the outline for the Curse Return volume isn’t ready yet… It’s a bit of a headache, it’s too late to prepare it.

Anyway, please vote and collect first! Your support is also my motivation to update!

Chapter 52: The Location of the Holy Grail

"In that case, we can only wait for Tiamat to arrive." Gilgamesh nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Amber: "How long can that guy hold on?"

"Theoretically, she can keep fighting." Amber blurted out an outrageous statement that made everyone's eyes twitch, but she quickly added: "However, I guess she will come back in less than two days because she is bored."

It’s not that the Herrscher of Knowledge ignores the overall situation, but Amber doesn’t want Xiao Shi to keep doing things she doesn’t like. If two days are not enough, then she will go over and switch shifts with Xiao Shi.

"Then we should take this opportunity to move all the surviving citizens of Uruk to the north wall. Ishtar should also come with us. We can also observe the progress of Anna and Gorgon's spiritual fusion." Gilgamesh calmly gave the order and turned his attention to Ere. "As for the gate to the underworld, we can open it in Uruk."

"How can you be sure that Tiamat will come to Uruk, rather than skipping Uruk to pursue the survivors who migrated to the north wall?" Ishtar raised an eyebrow.

"Because this city and Gilgamesh are symbols of Sumerian civilization." Quetzal, an outsider, helped explain this point. "From Tiamat's perspective, humans and the land share a common destiny. Tiamat must have used her own instincts to lock onto Uruk, the heart of the land."

When Quetzal, a god whose power was no less than that of Tiamat and who occasionally played the role of the king of men, said these words, everyone naturally believed them.

"That's right. If you want to protect human history, you must eliminate Tiamat before I and Uruk are destroyed," said Gilgamesh.

Elle nodded. Tiamat was now everyone's biggest concern. "I think it will take about three days to completely open the gates of Uruk. After that, if Tiamat arrives, you can always send her to Hades."

"Based on her size and speed, if she maintained her current speed on the sea, it would take her about four days to reach Uruk," Leonidas explained. "However, considering the black mud needs to spread on land, it might be slower."

"Hmm." Gilgamesh was convinced by the judgment of this servant who was both a king and a general. "Then let your other half hold Tiamat back for a day. When Tiamat arrives, that will be the time for the final battle."

After everyone had discussed everything, they dispersed.

Except for Ishtar, no one else had anything to do. They returned to the house where they used to live and waited quietly for Tiamat to come.

Because the time had been agreed upon, after waiting for almost the same amount of time, Amber directly put on the core equipment of the Herrscher of Consciousness, achieving a long-distance instant teleportation, which made the Herrscher of Consciousness, who was originally bored, stunned for a moment.

"You only remember me now!?"

As soon as she came back, she expressed her dissatisfaction directly.

"That's not the case...it's mainly because we need someone to lead the way, and it seems like it will only be more boring if you come back." Amber pointed out the problem.

Even if the fighting there is boring, at least you can kill Lahmu and fight Tiamat when you have nothing to do. But if you come back, there is really nothing to do except waiting.

The Herrscher of Knowledge also understood this principle, so he didn't take it too seriously. Instead, he put on a more serious expression. "Let me remind you, that girl named Tiamat is indeed very powerful. At first, my Sword God could keep her down for about an hour, but with each use, her resistance is getting higher and higher."

Fu Hua wasn't surprised. "She's the creator goddess of Sumerian mythology. We don't underestimate her. Consciousness may be ethereal, but this is a mythological world where even souls exist. It's normal for the same method to be cracked after repeated use."

Indeed, although consciousness is an unfamiliar concept here, it is still understandable. However, something as mysterious as the soul is something they cannot even comprehend.

It is undoubtedly arrogant to underestimate the other party.

"You always talk about these big principles all the time. It's not like I don't understand them!" The Herrscher of Knowledge curled his lips, and in his heart he agreed with Fu Hua's statement.

This world is really weird. Even though we are obviously not as strong as them, there are all kinds of ways to prevent them from using their strength, and even the effectiveness of their attacks is greatly reduced.

Amber frowned, feeling a little complicated.

She actually likes Tiamat very much... If possible, she really doesn't want to be Tiamat's enemy, but unfortunately... Tiamat can't be a companion like Ishtar or Quetzal.

A night passed while everyone was in a complicated mood.

Early the next morning, Siduri arrived and informed everyone of Merlin's return and the king's summons.

"Merlin! So you're okay?!"

As soon as they entered the divine tower, everyone saw Merlin in a white robe. Merlin had a smile on his face, and there was no sign of the tension before the decisive battle.

"Hahaha, there are some things to say, but no matter what, I am also a court magician. These things are just small difficulties like stumbling blocks." Merlin said with a smile.

"Just announcing your return won't call all of us here, will it?"

Quetzal also interrupted Merlin with a smile: "Is there any new progress in the battle against Tiamat?"

"Ah, actually there is." Merlin nodded. "Do you all still remember Chaldea's purpose?"

"Eh?"

This question confused everyone for a moment. Mashu hesitated and said, "Isn't it about repairing the singularity and saving the future where humanity is destroyed?"

"Thanks for the explanation, but now that things have come to this, haven't you forgotten the most important step in repairing the singularity?" Merlin gave further hints.

"It's the Holy Grail." Ritsuka reacted immediately.

"Yes."

Merlin nodded. "The Holy Grail is a massive crystal of magical power, providing immense magical power sufficient to traverse and distort time and space, distorting the normal course of time. This immense magical power helps the holder resist human-induced 'timeline corrections', forcing them to maintain the state they desire."

"Conversely, if the Holy Grail is taken away, this singularity will disappear due to the lack of its core."

Ritsuka and Mashu also remembered that the doctor once said that the Holy Grail was the key to the formation of a singularity. Even if history was corrected, if the Holy Grail was not recovered, then the so-called correction would be meaningless.

but...

“It just provides an additional option.”

Seeing that Ritsuka didn't quite agree, Merlin didn't care, but his eyes turned to Amber: "I used my clairvoyance outside to see that the Holy Grail is at Tiamat's throat. If someone can resist the tide of chaos and take out the Holy Grail, the threat of Tiamat will be greatly reduced."

------

I'm so anxious. The plot of Warcraft Front is too long. I regret it very much. This should be the second or third one I wrote.

I originally wanted to finish writing the first volume before putting it on the shelves, and then put the second volume on the shelves after a few chapters... It seems like it's too late.

I can only try to speed up.

Chapter 53 Merlin's Proposal

This action, as if seeing through her thoughts, made Amber's heart tighten, but she quickly relaxed.

The strangeness of Merlin's attitude was not hidden, and everyone looked at Amber.

"I... don't want to be an enemy of Tiamat..." Amber said directly without hiding her thoughts.

These words made everyone look at them with doubt. As the Red Kite Immortal of Shenzhou and the guardian of human civilization, even if he did not want to be an enemy of Tiamat, he should not say it at this time.

Amber also knew that her speech was ooc.

However, her expression remained unchanged. Even if she did not want to be an enemy of Tiamat, her actions would not change. No matter what, she was on the side of humans.

Merlin saw this and said, "After the Red Kite Immortal entered the underworld, she used the power of the imaginary space, which briefly synchronized her consciousness with Tiamat. I believe something must have happened between her and Tiamat during that time."

After hearing what he said, everyone suddenly understood.

No wonder Amber always looked like she had something on her mind during that time.

"But you have no intention of standing on Tiamat's side, right?" Gilgamesh said. Although it was clearly a question, his tone seemed to have already determined the answer.

"Yeah." Amber nodded: "I understand her thoughts and actions, but..."

No one was surprised by her answer.

What Tiamat wants to do is not to destroy human civilization, but to destroy the current human civilization and then give birth to it anew. The Red Kite Immortal is the guardian of human civilization, but it is not surprising that the boundary between the 'present' and the 'future' is turbulent.

Furthermore, before Merlin said this, Amber hadn't shown any reluctance to fight, which meant that even if she understood, she had no intention of wavering, just like Ereshkigal before her.

If Amber had sided with Elle, the situation would have been completely different.

Everyone felt helpless about the Red Kite Immortal's excessive humanity, but was also somewhat glad that Amber stood firm.

The emotions in his heart were full but unwavering... Quetzal quickly stopped his wandering mind and barely suppressed the emotions that were about to overflow.

Merlin also smiled and said, "Chiyuan has already made two choices. I think it would be difficult for even the Chiyuan Immortal to be in a situation where he has to be an enemy of someone he approves of. That's why I came up with this proposal."

"Proposal?" Ritsuka thought of the Holy Grail he had just mentioned.

"That's right. It's not about letting Chaldea take the Holy Grail and leave immediately. Rather, it's about taking the Holy Grail to weaken Tiamat. With this level of effort, even if the Red Kite Sage only assists from the sidelines and doesn't directly participate in the subjugation, I think it will be enough to justify it."

Merlin nodded, then looked at Amber: "What do you think?"

“…” I stood and watched.

"As for who can resist the Chaos Tide and obtain the Holy Grail, the only one who comes to mind is the 'immortal Red Kite' Immortal," Merlin said. "But you also know that the black mud is more of an 'assimilation' than a killing, so if something goes wrong, it will just be an additional general for the enemy."

"In that case, why take the risk?" Quetzal looked at Merlin in confusion.

Gilgamesh also frowned, but as someone with clairvoyance, he understood that since Merlin said so, there must be a need to take the risk.

"Because Tiamat is immortal, even after falling into the underworld." Merlin's relaxed expression turned serious. "Her immortality isn't just due to Roman's counterargument, but also because she is the mother of all things, the origin of life, and the concept of 'death' doesn't exist for her."

This sentence cast a shadow on everyone, so the plan to let Tiamat fall into the underworld cannot be finalized?

"Is that why we came up with this proposal..." Everyone frowned.

This proposal is obviously a form of skipping class. If they are lucky, they can greatly weaken Tiamat and let them think of other ways, such as sealing Tiamat in the underworld or expelling her to the imaginary space again. Even if they are unlucky, they can just take the Holy Grail away and leave the trouble to the restraining force.

But the thing is....

"If Fu Hua goes to the other side, won't we be completely hopeless?" Ishtar frowned and raised this seemingly overlooked point.

But Gilgamesh said, "There is still a way."

A pool of golden light lit up next to Gilgamesh's hand, and then an exaggerated golden dagger fell into his hand.

He held the dagger towards Amber's position and said, "When you feel you can't do it anymore, use this to stab yourself. There's a high chance that it will force you out, but it's not foolproof. Whether or not to carry out this proposal depends on your choice."

Everyone's eyes gathered around them. Amber hesitated for a moment, then called the navigation: "Mr. Navigator, I remember we're going to the next world, right? Do we have to defeat Tiamat before we can get there?"

She hadn't decided whether to accept it, but she still wanted to leave a way out in advance. If the dagger didn't work, she could just ask the navigation to help her teleport.

"When the recognition is sufficient, the host can go to the next world at any time." The navigation's flat electronic voice sounded.

Amber finally had time to check her approval rating.

'1...1w4k?' Why are there so many suddenly?

Ereshkigal: 4000, Tiamat: 8000, Secondary: 2000

Amber still remembered that giving recognition to a character she'd already received would reduce her reward significantly. But... Tiamat actually gave her so much recognition? This was a first for her...

"How much recognition do I need to advance to the next world?"

The navigator's voice sounded calmly: "The recognition of the main characters in the current world has been collected. The recommendation to stay is 12%. The recommendation to go to the next world is 88%."

"So, I can actually stay here forever?" Amber asked curiously.

If that was the case, she didn't want to consider this proposal.

"Yes, but this world is a singularity world. When the Holy Grail is taken away, it will be quickly corrected by the quantum record tape and return to normal history at an extremely fast speed."

"Huh?" Amber was stunned. "Normal history?"

Isn't this a myth? But this isn't really a myth, is it a re-creation of a myth? It's Fate, after all.

"Chaldea will leave, Gilgamesh will die, Ishtar, Ereshkigal, Quetzal, the Leopard Man, and Anna will return to Valhalla, and Merlin will return to Avalon." The navigation explained the situation at that time: "Then, history will continue as it was."

To put it simply, all the friends I knew are gone...

Amber felt a little uncomfortable. She had almost no friends in real life. She finally made some friends, but the relationships only lasted less than a month?

Rather than having others say goodbye to her one by one, it would be better for her to...

"I accept."

—————— 1

The collapse is not considered yet, but the world after that should be opened.

The introduction also says that if you don’t use the character card in a world, just throw it away. These are props in the backpack, so use them whenever you want.

Chapter 54: Solar Calendar Stone

Rather than watching others leave, it would be better to let her say goodbye first. At least she hopes to leave surrounded by everyone... Oh no, I'm not a pink-haired athlete... However, before the world is destroyed and the system is bound, she really wants to be surrounded by people and die.

Because that would be really happy, and she would feel like everyone loved her.

"However, let's consider this as a backup plan," Amber said.
