I'm tied to Athena.

Gilgamesh stood up from the throne and took out the two great swords behind him... well, although their complete forms were bows, "You two, keep up with my speed! Don't fall behind!"

"How about giving it a try?"

Li Yun answered in a provocative manner.

The three riders leapt down from their aerial weapons and landed in front of the main entrance of the temple.

If you want to make this temple disappear from this artificial land, you only need to eliminate the owner inside. And if you want to reach the owner, you will inevitably have to go through a long and difficult road.

Ordinary servants might consider resisting the Jade Throne with the fastest speed and least effort.

However, it is not necessary.

For the three riders, the shortest route is to walk straight ahead, and the most labor-saving method is to charge in head-on.

They are servants, the oldest kings, the fathers of Europe, and the brave saviors. Thorns and sharp knives are nothing in their eyes!

The temple seemed to sense the challengers' will and gently opened the tightly closed door.

Next, step into the temple!

The moment they passed through the gate, Li Yun and the other two seemed to have traveled through the world and came to a world with only hot wind and yellow sand.

The place has a very ancient Egyptian feel, with exposed passages and walkways that take a long time to reach the main hall.

"Is this the inside of the temple? It feels like we are in the desert." Charlemagne seemed to be seeing this scene for the first time and couldn't help looking around.

"Because it is a kind of inherent barrier, this kind of change is very normal. Compared to this, it is better to focus on the enemy in front of us." Li Yun held the sickle and watched the sphinxes appearing from all directions.

"They are just scum blocking the road!" Gilgamesh snorted disdainfully. Behind him, golden ripples appeared, and then weapons shot out like lightning.

Under Gilgamesh's inhumane attack, the sphinxes fell down immediately. However, they stood up again the moment after falling down.

"Immortal enemy?" Gilgamesh frowned.

"It's a blessing bestowed by the inherent barrier. As long as they are in this temple, they will never die." Li Yun passed by Gilgamesh, "So now, it's my turn!"

The black sickle flashed like lightning, and in just a moment, the Sphinxes that had stood up fell down again. But this time, they did not stand up again.

"The curse of the underworld cannot be offset by any blessing." Li Yun chuckled. His favorite things to deal with were those who claimed to have special powers and were immortal.

Even if this temple could keep the Sphinx alive, they would not have the strength to stop them.

Chapter 367: Meeting of Kings

The light is roaring and burning; the warriors are advancing and fighting.

Led by Li Yun, the three of them advanced straight towards the depths of the temple like sharp swords. No matter how many sphinxes appeared, they could not stop their progress.

But as they advanced along the way, from the desert passage to the interior of the pyramid, Li Yun and his three riders encountered more and more monsters with increasing strength. In addition, except for Li Yun, Gilgamesh and Charlemagne also showed some abnormal conditions to a greater or lesser extent.

"Ah, the curse here is really strong." Charlemagne's fingers were already trembling, and even the holy sword was a little unstable. "This is the first time that I've been paralyzed by poison and can't hold the sword."

"Since it is a temple, it can naturally bring down blessings and curses. As invaders, it is natural that curses fall on us." Although Gilgamesh was calm, his lungs were burning like fire and he was also poisoned.

"This is probably Rider's idea... Let enough sphinxes slow down our progress and let the curse corrode our bodies. In this way, even if we reach him, we won't have much power to resist." Li Yun thought thoughtfully.

"Don't let it sound so easy to me just because you are not affected by the curse!" Gilgamesh had the urge to punch Li Yun.

Li Yun is a god. Although this body is a clone, he is still a god. With the power of protection from the underworld, he is enough to fight against the curse here.

It was precisely because he was not affected that their progress did not slow down.

"Don't you have something to detoxify? Even if you can't resist all the curses, you can still make things easier for yourself and Charlemagne." Li Yun casually chopped down an attacking giant beast and replied casually.

“If I use it here, doesn’t it mean that I am not as good as him?” Gilgamesh doesn’t care about winning or losing the Holy Grail War. He only cares about whether he is the strongest in the Holy Grail War. If he is forced to use the treasure in the King’s Treasure before meeting Ramses II, wouldn’t that be too embarrassing?

"You are really persistent in this regard."

"Um... Senior, I don't care about these things. Can you give me the antidote first?" Charlemagne smiled innocently, "Ah, after all, I can't even hold a sword like this, so I can only be a burden to the seniors."

"....." Gilgamesh's mouth twitched, "Are you here just to tear down my throne?!"

Having said that, Gilgamesh was still honest and gave the antidote to the curse to Charlemagne.

"Thank you, senior." After taking the antidote, Charlemagne felt much better and his strength to hold the sword returned.

"Senior Li Yun, let's go together!" Charlemagne, who had been revived with full health, rushed out first. Li Yun looked at the figure of the junior, smiled and shook his head, then patted Gilgamesh on the shoulder, "Well, before reaching the throne, Charlemagne and I will lead the way."

With the powerful strength of Li Yun and Charlemagne, the group quickly passed through the passage and arrived between the jade thrones.

The moment they entered the Jade Throne, the three of them felt heavy, as if even the colors around them had changed, and a heavy pressure fell on them!

"I have to commend you three for reaching this point! Well done, warriors."

As if it came from heaven, a solemn and absolute declaration reached the ears of the three people.

That was the voice of the man with the eyes of the sun, who was standing in front of the three people and had a dazzling aura of a king around him.

There was approval in his eyes, but...it was not agreement, nor was it putting Li Yun and the other two on an equal footing with himself.

Yes, this is just a compliment.

It was as if the king held a competition to select warriors, and finally three warriors arrived before him, that was all.

To this man, with his brown skin and gold ornaments, no one in the world can be equal to him. No matter who it is, in his eyes, he is just one of his equal "subjects".

"You are putting me among your subjects? There should be a limit to your arrogance! Those who fail to recognize the other party's identity and think they are unique are not qualified to sit on the throne!" Gilgamesh raised a mad smile, "However, I am always kind to such ignorant guys."

Golden ripples appeared around him, "This light, this heat, I have personally experienced. Therefore, I will give you the opportunity to worship me!"

"Use your defeat to experience my bravery!"

"The King's Treasure!"

Gilgamesh in this world has two ways of using the King's Treasure. One is to use the King's Treasure to assist in close combat with the opponent, and the other is to stand still and deploy the King's Treasure to the greatest extent.

Needless to say, the latter method is more powerful and faster than the former, but the former method is more convenient and quick.

And now, Gilgamesh is using the latter method.

Dense ripples appeared from the temple, and one divine weapon after another appeared, ruthlessly attacking the brown man on the jade throne.

"Oh? This bearing, this radiance, and the aura of a king filling your whole body, are you also a king? A king who can be compared with me!" The God King sitting high on the jade throne finally opened his eyes and recognized the kingly demeanor of the man in front of him.

“Hahahahaha, I didn’t expect that there would be a king who could be compared with me in this Holy Grail War.” The man stood up, and the God King on the ground held the staff beside him, “Very good, King below, you are right, a king who refuses to acknowledge the merits of others is not worthy of being king!”

"To show my respect, I'll let you see my most courageous pet!"

"Hotsand Sphinx!"

The staff struck the ground, and the already heavy temple became even heavier. Behind Ramses II, something seemed to have awakened!

"That's..." Suddenly, Charlemagne saw... a sphinx with a human face and a body that was more than ten meters tall, with golden wings, and looked like a pharaoh, appeared!

"This is my most valiant pet, the mother of all hot sand lion beasts, the strongest mythical beast, the Starry Sky Sphinx!"

"Then...how are you going to attack!" The God King on the ground, who was sitting high on the jade throne, laughed loudly, and his eyes like the sun reflected the figures of the three golden kings.

The atmosphere gradually became tense.

King against king, warrior against warrior.

Tokyo's survival depends on this battle.

Chapter 368: The Star-Eating Beast

"I'm sorry to interrupt your fight." Li Yun walked between Gilgamesh and Ramses II and raised his hand to stop the imminent fight. "I have something else I want to ask you."

"Brave man, preventing the kings from fighting each other is an unforgivable sin."

"Do you know me? Then things will be easy." The Savior smiled and looked directly at the Sun King. "It won't be too much of a problem. It will be solved soon. Just consider it as a reward for my arrival here. How about it?"

"The king will not be indiscriminate in rewarding and punishing, will he?"

"Oh? Are you trying to motivate me with words like that? Hahaha, sure, I'll allow it. Merits will be rewarded, mistakes will be punished. If you have any questions, just ask!"

"Although you know me, I'll still introduce myself. I'm Li Yun, a brave, unknown ordinary person, but I was chosen as the referee of this Holy Grail War." Li Yun's dark eyes met those of the sun, "So, as a referee, I need to know why you did this. And what is your purpose in doing this."

"Ah, the purpose?... Yeah, it's not Pharaoh, after all, I can't understand what I did."

The Sun King closed his eyes and thought for a while. "Well, originally I have no reason to explain, but since I said this is a reward for you, I will waste some time explaining my purpose to you."

"Listen up, hero!"

“No matter what time or era, there are always things that remain unchanged.”

"During my reign, among the countless subjects who stood on my land, there were intelligent and capable people, hardworking people, kind-hearted people, and of course, extremely ignorant people."

"Even after thousands of years, the people all over the land have not changed much... No, the people of this era are even more ignorant."

"Standing on the earth, yet trying to touch the sky, stretching one's hand towards the realm of God. Ah, there are people everywhere on this earth who only possess a small vessel beyond their own ability, but without any brilliance."

"Humans are inherently vulgar, so I, as Pharaoh, need not feel indignant at them."

"However, if you want to reach out to the sky without knowing the limits, then as the sun, as a god, as one who stands on par with Amon and Mut, I must punish the humble one!"

"So, this is why you materialized the treasure and tried to destroy the city?" Li Yun frowned. Is Ramses II such a tyrant? He tried to destroy a city for such a thing.

"Humph, I will not do such a thing. I treat my subjects equally, whether they are good or bad, smart or stupid, they are all my subjects. I will restrain them according to the law and guide them with my own brilliance."

"That's why I made a decision - to obtain a real body through the Holy Grail, to stand upright on this land, and as the God of the Sun, to guide the ignorant people of this world again!"

The King of Kings opened his arms, and light fell on him - that was the king's declaration, that was God's proclamation, that was... the return of a well-governed world.

"I see. Are you planning to evolve the filth of this world through your own brilliance? Hahahaha, very like the sun!" Li Yun did not say anything, but Gilgamesh laughed first.

Gilgamesh said he understood this idea and this action, "If I hadn't met him, I might have had the same idea as you."

"Everything in this world is too filthy. It is a false world embellished with false prosperity. Compared to my era, this era is simply worthless!"

"But even in this world, there are people and things that are worthy of my praise and admiration. I will never deny this."

"Golden, you are worthy of being a king comparable to me. I am afraid you are the only one in the world who can understand my approach!" Ramses II smiled in surprise.

"Humph, that's only natural! But the sun, this is where our differences end!" Gilgamesh narrowed his red eyes, "But if you ask me what I would choose, I would choose to leave the future to the people of this era."

"Whether it's me or you, both have been eliminated by the times. A king who should have been buried in the ground, how can a dead person be resurrected to rule this era? Hahahaha, this is a joke that will make me laugh for the rest of my life!"

"I see. Are you the King of Letting Go?" The King of Kings did not get angry at Gilgamesh's words. He nodded in understanding. "I understand. Even if you are a king who can be compared with me, you are not Pharaoh after all. You cannot understand Pharaoh's actions."

"Wait, if that's the case, why destroy Tokyo? Is it to show their power, or to announce their return?" This question is even more strange. Since they are participating in the Holy Grail War for the purpose of governing the world, why do they have to destroy this city?

"Before I rule the world, I must naturally eliminate the existence that endangers me and this world." His attitude changed, and Ramses II's momentum pressed towards Li Yun like the sea.

"I am the sun, the sun that came down to shine upon my people and illuminate the world! The reason I exist in this Holy Grail War is not only to bring the sun's light to the world, but also to use the sun's light to destroy the beasts that devour the planet."

"Li Yun, you call yourself brave, a savior, but what are you doing now?"

"Becoming a Servant of the Mother of Beasts and helping the Mother of Beasts give birth to wild beasts is such an ironic act!"

"The beast that devours stars?" The strange words made Li Yun frown. What was he talking about?

"It seems that you still don't understand... But you don't need to understand, I have told you enough." The God King raised his staff, "For the sake of my future country, I will burn this city and its sins to ashes!"

"The war has begun!"

"Go, my most courageous beast!"

The giant beast that was shining with the brilliance of the starry sky roared, and waves and vibrations were heard, but the next moment, the divine weapons that had been ready to go cut through the air and flew towards the giant beast!

The weapon collided with the skin of the giant beast, but the weapon made a slight collision sound and fell down weakly.

"Oh? Even C-rank treasures can't break its defense?" Gilgamesh smiled in amusement, "Then let's try B-rank treasures!"

"If we judge by level, this treasure should be level A. If you want to cause more damage to this thick-skinned beast, a B-level treasure is necessary." Li Yun buried Ramses II's words in his heart. No matter what he meant, he should try his best to stop him now!

"Is the poison gone?"

"Hmph, don't underestimate me. I can easily deal with such a beast!"

As Gilgamesh spoke, countless treasures emerged from the golden ripples, and the Starry Sphinx driven by Ramses II faced them fearlessly.

The battle....begins

Chapter 369 Are You Also the Sun?

Light appeared, and several pale strips of light reminiscent of magic circuits emerged one after another from the Jade Throne, the floor, walls, and ceiling in the deepest part of the main temple.

The already dazzling main temple did not shine even brighter because of this light, but with the appearance of the light strips, the magic power of the main temple expanded even more...

No, it should be said that at this moment, Rider - Ozymandias' greatest treasure, the 'Glorious Grand Complex Temple', was truly activated.
