"What on earth happened?!"

"Although I simply can't believe it's true! But—but the data displayed by the Chaldea instruments shows exactly what the situation is like on your side—"

Subsequently.

Dr. Roman was speaking in an almost shouting manner.

"That thing that appeared in your sky is a real black hole—!!!!"

——Huh?

In that instant, Fujimaru Ritsuka vaguely felt as if her brain had shut down.

What did he say?

Black...black hole?

"Hehe, doctor, you, you must be joking, right? You must be joking!"

"That thing's initial radius was probably only about ten kilometers, but it has now expanded to twenty kilometers, and it's about to expand to forty kilometers!"

Click—this is beyond what can be explained by a simple brain freeze.

In short, regardless of what the people present actually thought.

The dark object in the sky, something that seemed to be expanding like a volleyball, was bursting out in an even more terrifying manner.

————————————————————————————————————————————

"It's not a black hole or anything like that..."

These are the words of the culprit who created this absurd, natural disaster.

Accelerator curled his lip. That thing above his head was just formed by borrowing the calculation formula of a black hole.

It's not really a true black hole at all; in fact, it's just a very simple case.

Accelerator has always used "reflection," which repels all directions of energy.

That black sphere is the "absorption" that gathers all energy from all directions.

It's a very simple principle; it's just a matter of reversing the normal reflection. It's that simple.

The formula used in practice does indeed reference the calculation formula for black holes, but it is not equivalent to a real black hole.

even so.

With such a massive impact, not to mention its destructive power, its sheer size alone would instantly crush an entire modern nation.

That's why Accelerator chose to throw the Serpent Goddess so far away.

It is precisely to keep everything away from the power of destruction.

"almost."

The first monster swung its hand without any mercy.

"—Shouldn't this all end now?"

Bang! ! !

A huge, pure black sphere.

It gathers such enormous energy in an almost unimaginable way—

It crashed head-on into the location where the serpent goddess was.

In that very instant.

Within the core of this planet, tens of thousands of damaged cracks suddenly appeared outwards.

Chapter 613 The Reason for Fighting at Will

The dark sphere in the sky disappeared.

As mentioned before, even in Uruk, people could still witness this scene.

"Then...what exactly is it...?"

The soldiers still fighting on the front lines in Uruk all wore expressions of incomprehension.

This world belongs to the age of gods, so it's not surprising that anything might happen. The phenomenon of gods and humans appearing together in the same place has occurred more than once before.

Nevertheless, it is still difficult to accept the situation that is unfolding before our eyes.

Because that enormous black sphere that suddenly appeared in mid-air, seemingly about to devour the entire sky, was hardly the creation of the gods.

It's more like a product of the devil.

Therefore, its sudden appearance and then its abrupt disappearance was truly unexpected.

But these are not the main things to pay attention to right now.

"Don't suddenly shift your attention, and don't be careless."

"Concentrate everyone's attention!"

puff--! !

As if the wind had been sliced ​​open, the spear in his hand pierced through the monster before him with a straight thrust.

Not just one, but several monsters in succession.

The leader of the Spartan warriors roared, swinging his spear and shield, causing the blood of the monsters to splatter onto the tip of his blade and the surface of his shield.

"No matter what's happening in the distance, as soldiers, all we need to care about is the battlefield right in front of us."

"Or is it that the blood, tears, life, and death scenes you've encountered so far are not as powerful as that level of expression?"

puff-

Leonidas I, the king and hero of the Spartan warriors.

He accomplished such a terrifying and cruel thing all by himself.

The opponent is a massive horde of magical beasts, an overwhelming and hopeless force. Even if you kill ten or a hundred of them, it won't affect their numbers in the slightest.

even so.

"Summon the backbone from the depths of your souls! Let your fighting spirit seep into your very bones. Never despair at the so-called number of enemies. Only you can truly convey despair!"

"This is... the Spartan way of fighting!!"

The King of War raised his weapon high, pointing it straight to the sky.

The roaring sound made the warriors of Uruk widen their eyes, and the powerful words restored their strength to their hands and feet.

There is no fear.

And you absolutely must not be afraid!

No matter how many monsters are in front of us, or what terrifying things are happening in the distance, there is no need to care at all.

All you need to know is that you are the one who is meant to bring the fighting to this battlefield!

Here, they will fight to the end to protect their loved ones, and they will never be afraid even if they know that the numbers are overwhelmingly different!

"For your city, for your loved ones, for all of this—!!"

"Fight for Uruk!!"

Morale soared instantly.

Although their numbers were negligible compared to the endless horde of magical beasts, the roars of the soldiers and their surging, inspired spirit were enough to rival the nearly infinite number of beasts.

All of this was accomplished thanks to the Spartan king before them.

The soldiers of Uruk drew their weapons again and, with a more unbridled spirit and strength than before, charged into the battlefield without hesitation.

—Bang! !

The merciless and direct attack pierced through the head of one of the monsters.

Blood splattered, and the soldier quickly used his shield to block the blood flying out of the monster's body, because even the bodily fluids of this type of monster contained an equivalent amount of toxins.

Then, another soldier did the same thing.

With their morale boosted, they slew most of the monsters in just a few simple exchanges. Other soldiers did the same, and even more soldiers accomplished it, using their guns or swords to achieve a level of killing prowess far surpassing their previous feats.

But—was this really all achieved solely through the inspiration of that Spartan king?

Indeed, the king himself possessed the ability to boost morale; his roar alone was enough to make the warriors' blood boil. Therefore, when he then made an inspiring declaration on the same scale as before, it would surely raise the warriors' morale to an extreme.

But that's not the real reason.

hum-

A dazzling, white and red light emanated from the weapons and shields held by the soldiers.

After being bathed in this radiance, the monsters instinctively retreated, roaring as if they had encountered their natural enemy.

The raw ore used in these weapons and armor was a combination of metal and ore that King Gilgamesh had previously mined.

Just as previously reported.

These materials, a combination of metals and minerals, seem to release an aura that can interfere with magical beasts. They are also extremely hard and tough. If they were used for processing to create a large number of weapons and armor to be handed over to the warriors on the front lines, this would be the scene we see.

For monsters, warriors wielding these specially made weapons are practically their natural enemies.

Therefore, even this amount of ore can play a significant role on the battlefield.

If even more of these ores were mined and used to target the Beast Goddess who gave birth to countless magical beasts... what kind of scene would that create?

Now I can finally understand why Enkidu would go to such lengths to destroy these ores.

And most importantly.

On this battlefield, it's not just the soldiers of Uruk who are the main characters.

"drink--!!!"

Click!

The area within a 100-meter radius centered on Hatsune Miku's body was completely pierced by that extremely pure ice blade.

The girl's spiritual power is transformed into tangible ice power, which is then shaped into various forms to influence the world before her.

Hundreds or even thousands of magical beasts are nothing compared to Hatsune Miku's ice power.

With a mere wave of his wand, the icy land that stretched out in one breath froze the bodies of countless magical beasts. The magical beasts in the distance were also affected by the cold, thus suffering the burden of slowed movement.

At this juncture, Uruk's soldiers could easily rush to the monsters and deliver the final blow.

At this rate, even such an endless array of monsters will no longer be an endless threat, because the speed at which they kill monsters far exceeds the speed at which monsters invade.

All we need to do is protect the northern wall of Uruk. Then, we can gradually strengthen the defenses here to their fullest extent, and the monsters will no longer be able to break through them.

With Hatsune Miku around, all of this will become a reality.

It was so easy.

…Then, just as the girl was thinking this…

"Oh dear, that won't do."

A deafening chorus of mocking laughter echoed from mid-air.

"If we can't get a little more time, I'll be in a real bind."

puff.

*Pfft pfft pfft pfft—!*

Before Hatsune Miku could even react, a ghostly figure flashed by.

The soldiers, who were fighting back against the monsters, were instantly slaughtered by a series of figures that attacked.

The number of dead was approximately several dozen, and all of them... were killed almost instantly.

"How...could this be!"

The girl immediately looked toward the spot where the figure had landed.

Standing over there was a purple-haired youth dressed in black and purple clothing.

"Please allow me to say that it's been a long time... beautiful twin-tailed lady."

I had already encountered Cain, an enemy, once before in the dense forests to the southwest.
