Type-Moon, the Path of a Magician

Her consciousness was controlled by someone, and her body was deliberately cut with many wounds. The blood in her body turned into nutrients for the temple and was dripping continuously into the blood pool below.

As time went by, more and more terrifying monsters were born from the blood pool below, and then crawled out in twisted bodies.

Roar--! ! !

Countless deafening roars echoed in the Blood Temple.

These new monsters born from the blood pool are stronger and more ferocious than their previous companions, far surpassing the Blood Temple controlled by the Gorgon.

With the improvements made by many Demon Pillars, this Blood Temple was completely transformed into a factory, a terrifying biological processing factory that continuously produces new magical beasts.

With the improvements of Beelzebub, Vashago, Barbatos and other demon pillars, the speed and quality of the Blood Temple's production of magical beasts have been greatly improved.

However, if one wants to defeat Uruk's absolute monster front, it is far from enough to rely solely on the numerical advantage of these low-level monsters.

In order to ensure that these monsters could break through the monster line of Uruk, many demon pillars with special powers poured their lifeblood into the holy grail given by Goetia, and then used magic to stuff it into the body of the Gorgon.

Thus giving it its own characteristics, it produced and improved magical beasts that could break through Uruk's defenses.

Fneu gave the monster the ability to swim in water.

Beelzebub gave the beasts the power to spread disease and plague.

Phoenix gives Warcraft the ability to soar into the sky and extremely strong recovery capabilities.

Samkina gives Warcraft the ability to sneak into dreams and defeat wills.

Under the operation of these demon pillars, many magical beasts with strange shapes and terrifying powers were produced continuously and thrown into the front battlefield.

This also caused the Warcraft battle line, which had been able to hold its own, to immediately fall into an unprecedented crisis due to the addition of the Warcraft followers of these Demon Pillars.

Faced with the abnormal abilities displayed by these monsters, the soldiers in Uruk who were responsible for defending the monster front were caught off guard.

The front line that was being defended at the front was also facing a huge threat in an instant.

If it weren't for the protection of outstanding servants such as Arjuna and Leonidas, the entire Warcraft front might even have been breached.

In Uruk, Gilgamesh was also having a headache because of these strange monsters that suddenly appeared. He discussed countermeasures with the summoned servants, and at the same time wondered what happened in the seventh singularity.

……

……

Deep inside the Blood Temple.

In a vast and dark space, all the Demon Pillars that are still remaining in the seventh singularity are gathered here.

Different from the outer area of ​​the palace where monsters are constantly rioting, the inner space here is much deeper and quieter.

In the palace.

Barbatos stood on the platform, transformed into a middle-aged man, his expression extremely solemn at this moment.

"You mean that the life breath of Eliog, Cerios, and Benobei, who were sent to Kusa to monitor Ereshkigal, has disappeared?"

Looking at the only twenty-four remaining fellow Demon Pillars below, his tone was filled with anger.

Like him, all the demon pillars below that had been camouflaged as humans also had anger on their faces.

As the aura of the twenty-four demon pillars continued to change, the entire inner hall was filled with a heavy, oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

There were thirty-six pillars when I came.

Afterwards, that damn bastard Gorgon went back on his word and killed five of them. In order to create a stronger monster, he voluntarily sacrificed four pillars, and now three of them have suddenly lost their life.

In such a short period of time, they have lost one third of their compatriots.

This was something Barbatos had not expected.

He was not thoughtful enough about the Gorgon Guild's backstabbing, and not to mention the compatriots who chose to sacrifice themselves in order to create the monster, what happened to the sudden disappearance of three compatriots? !

"Did the goddess of the underworld, Ereshkigal, attack them?!" Barbatos asked in a deep voice to Morax, who was in charge of the investigation and had just returned.

In this seventh singularity, there are not many beings that can kill the three Demon Pillars and prevent them from escaping.

But Ereshkigal is indeed one of them. Ereshkigal, who is in the underworld, can obtain unimaginable and terrifying blessings.

According to mythology, even Enki, one of the four main gods, and Anu, the king of gods, had to give Ereshkigal enough respect and fear in the underworld.

If she really did it, it would not be impossible to kill the three demon pillars.

but……

"Before starting the operation, didn't I warn them that it would be enough to conduct reconnaissance outside Kusa? Did they break into Ereshkigal's territory?" Barbatos asked.

"No, the last place where their life force disappeared was indeed the outskirts of Kusa. I'm sure that Eliog and the others did not set foot in that underworld." Morax replied.

"What's going on? Could it be that Ereshkigal has the power to instantly kill three demon pillars outside the underworld? If it wasn't her, who did it?!"

After hearing this answer from Morax, Barbatos became more and more agitated.

"I don't know... but maybe it really wasn't Ereshkigal..."

"Why are you so sure?" a Demon Pillar asked.

"Because after the incident happened, I immediately took the other demon gods to check the situation."

Morax replied slowly, "Because I didn't detect any breath from the underworld in the area where they died. There weren't even any signs of fighting in that area. I only found their bodies that had been torn apart around Kusa."

"..."

The scene fell into dead silence.

"If we infer from the results, they should have been killed before they could react, and they didn't even have the chance to use the Demon Pillar's true body."

"You mean the three of them were killed in an instant by some kind of entity, right?"

Not only Barbatos, but all the Demon Pillars present showed unpredictable expressions on their faces regarding the answer given by Morax.

The seventy-two demon pillars, all controlled by King Solomon, knew the strength of their three compatriots very well.

If they fight alone, there is indeed a certain gap between them and top-level god servants such as Karna and Arjuna, but they are by no means ordinary characters.

It is very difficult for ordinary servants to face any one of them. Only when multiple servants work together can they have a chance of victory.

But now, the three demon gods were killed instantly by some special existence when they had no consciousness or resistance, without even a trace of resistance.

How could the Demon Pillars not be horrified to get such an outrageous answer?

They immediately retorted: "This is impossible!!"

"Instantly killing three demon pillars, even a divine servant can't do this, right?!"

"What on earth is going on? Who on earth did this?!"

"Is it that the Grand Servant, Smoky Mirror Tezcatlipoca, who did this?!"

Some of the demon pillars present immediately directed their attacks at the strongest known combat force in the Seventh Singularity, the Crown Servant.

"No, not him."

But soon the Demon Pillar refuted this conjecture.

"I have been following the whereabouts of the Grand Servant. That guy did not hide his tracks. When the three Demon Pillars died, he was racing on the Mesopotamian plains. So the murderer should not be him."

"Then Ishtar... No, that's impossible. The goddess who possessed her doesn't specifically have such power."

That means...

After continuous association, Barbatos soon gave the most likely answer.

It looked at Morax and said, "You mean that the water in the seventh singularity is far more than what we see. This space-time also hides an existence that can instantly kill the three demon pillars, right?"

The demon pillars below: "..."

After receiving this answer, the entire inner hall fell into deathly silence.

It was not good news for the Demon Pillar to learn that there was such an unknown and powerful enemy hiding in the dark in the already crisis-ridden Seventh Singularity.

"So what should we do now? Should we remove the surveillance on these goddesses and gather our compatriots together?"

A demon pillar raised a question.

After learning that there is such an existence in the dark of this singularity, I no longer dare to be lazy.

"Although sticking together for warmth is indeed a solution, it won't work this way..."

There were also voices of rebuttal from the Demon Pillars.

"So what should we do?"

"How should we do it? Be patient, my compatriots. This is not a difficult decision."

When the Demon Pillar was in doubt, Morax below spoke again.

Seeing this fellow Demon Pillar, who was known for his wisdom and experience, speaking again, Barbatos, who was in charge of presiding over the event, couldn't help but relax his frown.

"Speak, Morax, we are all aware of your excellent wisdom, let us hear your opinion."

Barbatos spoke, and as soon as he finished speaking, all the Demon Pillars present looked at Morax below, and a low voice echoed in the palace again.

"it is good."

Morax nodded slightly, then said: "Everyone, the answer is actually very simple."

"We will not really die now. Even if we were teleported to this singularity by the King, we were only given the mission of delaying Chaldea."

"So we don't need to worry about the so-called sacrifice, or killing the Master of Chaldea. We just need to cause them enough trouble."

"Our dead compatriots will not really die. They will be resurrected in the king's temple and help the king to complete the great plan. So we don't need to feel angry or sad at the moment. Because whether we are alive or dead, we are trying to fulfill our duties, right?"

Compared to the other Demon Pillars who were furious because their compatriots were quietly killed, Morax's vision was much clearer.

As the demon pillar that holds wisdom, its mind will always remain clear so that it can think correctly and choose a more appropriate answer.

"There's no need to worry about the so-called sacrifices. All we have to do is continue to deploy more pawns on the battlefield. Put more pressure on the Warcraft Front and Uruk, and do our best to block their ever-expanding advantage."

"Our deaths are for the greater plan, but their deaths mean attrition, which means the possibility of failure is increasing."

"So, my suggestion for now is to keep everything as usual, continue to monitor all the goddesses, and do our best to prevent Chaldea from getting help from the goddesses. And only Barbatos needs to be left to preside over the normal operation of the Blood Temple, and all other demon pillars continue to go to the battlefield, causing damage to Uruk to the greatest extent possible and distracting their attention. When we have sacrificed almost all of our lives and the humans of Chaldea and Uruk think they are about to win, Barbatos who stays in the temple will awaken the real protagonist of the seventh singularity, Tiamat, and give Chaldea and Uruk the final blow for us!!"

"What do you think of this arrangement?"

After he finished speaking, Morax slowly stepped onto the steps of the palace, stood shoulder to shoulder with Barbatos, looked back at the demon below, and spoke calmly.

"If there are no better suggestions, let's start voting. Use the voting method to decide whether to adopt my suggestion."

"feasible."

"Seconded."

"no comment."

"..."

The twenty-two Demon Pillars below looked at each other, then spoke out and collectively approved the opinion proposed by Morax.

"and……"

Seeing that no compatriots objected to him, Morax grinned, then spread out his palms and ejected a ball of light like a water mirror into the control.

As the magic worked, the scene that appeared in the water mirror was the rainforest near Ur.

"This is Quetzalcoatl's territory, so I didn't venture there myself. However, I set up many hard-to-detect detection traps in the area near the rain forest to monitor Ur's movements."

Morax waved his hand and the water mirror immediately showed the image of Karna speeding past in his chariot.

"This is... Karna? And there's a man and a horse pulling a cart? What on earth is this?"

The sudden appearance of Karna's familiar figure immediately attracted the attention of many demon pillars.

"The answer is simple. This is the information fed back by my magic."

"According to the results of the detection, the horse pulling the cart should also be a Servant. I don't know its real name, but according to the intelligence analysis, it should be one of the horses summoned by Gilgamesh. This means..."

"Ur has turned against Uruk, Quetzalcoatl has betrayed the covenant of the three goddesses!!"

After hearing what Morax said, the demon pillars present immediately thought of this most likely answer.

"Yes, if things go as expected, it has been confirmed that Quetzalcoatl has turned to Uruk and to humans."

Morax nodded and then gave his guessed answer.

"I had originally doubted her intention to gather human warriors. Although the answer she gave was to sacrifice them and let them fight. But such a flawed answer could not fool me. So I paid more attention to the area around Ur."

"The current situation just confirms my guess. Quetzalcoatl is indeed a traitor. Her so-called collection of human sacrifices is probably to protect humans."

"And Uruk's arrival this time should be to transfer the warriors collected by Quetzalcoatl to Uruk to fill the human resource gap on the Warcraft front."
