Why fight the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

Gilgamesh had to admit that Jiang You was stronger now.

"Now that the farce is over, come and assist me in dealing with the monster problem in the north. Uruk is indeed short of manpower right now."

"Wait a minute, where's Uruk? Wasn't it destroyed?"

Jiang You said that he had already won, so how could anyone still think he was the mayor of Uruk? "This is now the land of fairies (fake)."

"...?"

Gilgamesh couldn't understand why the word "pseudo" was emphasized, "Aren't you here to deal with Tiamat's affairs and save humanity?"

"I am indeed here to save Humanity. I will save both Servants and humans. But, did I ever say I would save Uruk?"

Jiang You spread his hands and patted Gilgamesh's shoulder.

"Have you forgotten the terms of the Dark Game? You have now acknowledged the fall of Uruk, Mr. Gilgamesh, the last king. You are now a prisoner in the Fairy Kingdom. It is because of the Queen's mercy that you have the opportunity to move around outside."

"You can pull it down!"

Yao Cui rolled her eyes as she approached. Although Yantou couldn't do much damage to her, Yantou's defensive skills were quite impressive, and it took Yao Cui quite a bit of effort to defeat him. By the time she was done, Jiang You had already secured a general position. "Do you still have any regard for me, the 'Queen'? If I suggested we drag this guy into the Massacre Theater, would you agree?"

"Watch him slaughter others?"

Jiang You couldn't imagine that scene. "You, a goblin with a broken brain, should just go play. This guy was even better at governing a country than you when he was young. This guy next is the Finance Minister of the (fake) Goblin Kingdom. With him around, we don't have to worry about financial matters at all."

Gilgamesh's face turned green with anger: "How could I possibly submit to someone else?"

"Indeed, I can't figure out what you call yourself when you're not calling me 'this king'."

Jiang You nodded and said, "However, the organization has already made this decision. You, the king of a fallen nation, should honestly accept this outcome. As humanity's oldest heroic king, you don't want to see Siduri and your subjects lying dead in the wilderness because of the destruction of your nation, do you?"

"You idiot cultivator!!!!"

Gilgamesh had no choice. This was how the Dark Game worked, and he was forced to accept this ending.

"My Lady Queen..."

Siduri couldn't understand the current situation, but since no one had been killed or injured, there was no conflict between the two sides. The most important thing now was to deal with the monster tide from the north, so she chose to temporarily assist Yao Cui with intelligence work. "Your subordinates are almost unable to withstand the monster attack. You need to send more people!"

Yao Cui pointed at Jiang You and said, "I'm just a puppet. This is the Regent."

Siduri: “Ah, this.”

276

Chapter 276 Next is the Gorgon.

With Merlin's help, Matthew unleashed a powerful fighting force, putting Shuten-douji at a disadvantage. However, Musashibo was successfully defeated by Ibaraki, and the situation suddenly reversed. Just when Gudako thought the battle would last for a long time, a funny servant in a puppet costume descended from the sky and suppressed both sides.

Taiga Fujimura, wearing a doll costume, told everyone that there was no need to fight anymore because Uruk had been destroyed.

When Gudako showed her determination to preserve the last bit of her strength and ordered Matthew to snatch Ushiwakamaru from Minamoto no Raikou and prepare to evacuate, Anna appeared in her sight.

Then Gudako was brought back to the sacred tower, to Gilgamesh's throne. There, Yao Cui was twisting and turning with a look of disdain, apparently finding the seat uncomfortable. After all, the throne was obviously made of stone, and certainly not as comfortable as a sofa.

Gilgamesh stood aside, his face constipated, his eyes brimming with murderous intent. However, under the influence of the Dark Game, he had no other options.

"It looks shabby, but it feels shabby sitting on it too. Is this the way the King of Heroes presents himself?"

"This is more than 2500 years BC. Don't expect anything extra."

"Wang is quite frugal..."

Siduri smiled apologetically and said that in fact, Gilgamesh was quite arrogant and extravagant a few years ago, but he restrained himself in recent years and became a wise king.

"I've read the Epic of Gilgamesh, don't lie to me."

Jiang You directly started a wave of sabotage, and he was happy when Gilgamesh was unhappy.

"Everyone knows what kind of person he was before. He was a man of extravagant desires who wouldn't let even a man go."

"Miscellaneous cultivators..."

Having his prison cell opened wasn't a pleasant experience, which is why Gilgamesh hated his past self so much. It was a dark past he couldn't erase. He wanted to travel back in time and kill himself.

"So this is why you do all this?"

Gudako finally couldn't help but complain, saying that the entire singularity was a mess, even though no casualties were caused, "Why couldn't you just tell us about this kind of thing?"

Merlin smiled. He had known this ending long ago. If Shuten hadn't gone mad, he could have continued to slack off until everything was over. He had also witnessed Gilgamesh's battle clearly. The only problem was that he still hadn't discovered Jiang You's true identity. Jiang You could collect those he encountered and defeated into his deck, which undoubtedly made identification more difficult.

It wasn't that Merlin had confidence in Jiang You, but rather that Jiang You had two powerful players in his deck who could provide him with a solid base. No one here was more suitable for the final battle than Jiang You.

"Will you agree if I tell you?"

Looking at Gudako who suddenly choked up, I knew that she had accepted this result.

"Okay, it was Shuten who didn't control her strength. She had promised me that she wouldn't hit me too hard. What happened?..."

A certain slacking off expert coughed awkwardly twice.

"Okay, I know what's going on..."

Jiang You glanced at Merlin, probably because this guy said something that made Shuten excited.

"How about this? As compensation, I'll take you on vacation to modern society. Not the kind found in the singularity, but more like a parallel world."

"real or fake."

Gudako looked at Jiang You doubtfully, "How could such a place exist? Could it be that it appears normal, but suddenly something unexpected happens that needs to be dealt with? Last time, Da Vinci said it was a singularity that would dissipate without any treatment, and asked Matthew and I to go in and relax for a while, and suddenly we're fighting Heroic Spirits."

It seems that Gudako has also participated in some activities and is quite familiar with FGO's routines.

"Don't worry, I've already taken care of everything there, just have fun."

"Something's fishy."

Because Jiang You just made a living, his reputation with Gudako is not very good.

"Is that so?"

Ushiwakamaru, whose body was sore from being beaten by Minamoto no Raikou, sat cross-legged on the ground. Behind her was the unconscious Musashibo. "Although it was a bit excessive, I will forgive you for letting Minamoto no Raikou fight me. Now you can go hunt for the monster's head, right?"

"Don't go and get yourself killed."

Jiang You didn't want to see Ushiwakamaru's evil (?) fall. He felt like he was ready to be killed. "Leave it to us next. The agreement of the Three Goddesses Alliance has ended. From now on, the battle will be over quickly."

"The other side has increased its manpower."

Jingu looked at the advancing battle line in the distance. The number of the enemy servants had reached a terrifying number, and they were all new faces that he had never seen before.

"This is a servant from Quetzalcoatl. Why would he help defend Uruk?"

"The contract of the Three Goddesses Alliance is only binding between the goddesses. She is trying to obstruct us."

Gorgon watched the second-generation monsters he had carefully prepared being slaughtered, feeling extremely unhappy. The time was still too tight. If she had been given a little more time, the performance of these monsters wouldn't have been so poor. For now, she could only make do with what she had.

"Do you need me to deal with these Servants?"

Kingo, as a new personality created after Enkidu's refresh, inherited all of Enkidu's strength and also has the Holy Grail as his heart. Ordinary servants are no match for him at all.

"Go ahead, it's time for me to attack. Quetzalcoatl's wind-god pterosaur has appeared above Uruk. Now it's a competition between goddesses. You will help me to clean up those annoying bugs."

The Gorgon's mountain-like figure appeared on the battlefield, and the oppressive feeling it brought could be felt even thousands of meters away.

"Yes, Mother."

Jingu flew out and rushed towards the servant.

Shuten had just torn open the chest of a demon beast and tasted its heart. She quickly tossed the heart aside with a look of disgust. The taste, a mixture of various creatures' flavors, was hardly delicious.

Then, several golden chains pierced through the ground in front of her. Fortunately, her petite body was agile enough and she dodged through the gaps in the chains.

"Ah, you are the legendary Enkidu... Oh, sorry for being so abrupt, is it Jingu? Although I am interested in bondage, iron ones are too dangerous."

Shuten licked his palm. Kingu was a continuation of Enkidu's body, made of mud, so he had no blood or bone marrow. This made Shuten very disappointed.

"Island country ghosts? You have no place here! Not to mention you're blocking Mother's way!"

Kingu slammed his palm on the ground, and a large number of chains shot out from all around Shuten, "Die here!"

277

Chapter 277: The one before you is the king of a fallen nation, the former king of Uruk.

"Shuten was (?) killed."

Jiang You's fingers twitched, and an indescribable sensation ran down his spine, as if a connection had been severed. He checked his summoning panel; Shuten's portrait had turned gray. The cooldown was eight days, and he couldn't count on her anymore.

"Gorgon hasn't even come close to the battlefield yet. It looks like Kingo is the one who took action."

"Jin Gu... is there anyone that strong?"

Having just fought Shuten, Gudako wouldn't doubt his strength. Without Merlin's assistance, she and Mash would have been defeated in just ten rounds. But now, Shuten had been there for less than five minutes, and he was killed? "But Shuten is our ally now, right? He died just like that! And Ibaraki and Minamoto no Raikou are over there too! Let's go and support them."

The Shuten summoned by Jiang You had no memories of Gudako, so she was a bit rough when she attacked Gudako, thinking that as long as she didn't die, it would be fine. Unexpectedly, Gudako didn't hold a grudge at all, she really deserves to be called a universal socket.

"Just stop copying the snacks. Come, Baimao, send them to Wuer to enjoy the bliss of love."

Jiang You waved his hand, and a crowd of people appeared behind him. Some wore maid outfits, some wore butler uniforms, and there was even a head maid position. Jiang You said, "Don't feel pressured. You've worked hard all the way here. Leave the rest to me. Just like the sixth singularity, I'll take care of it all."

The butler, Baimao, who stood upright, stepped forward and, with standard and strict etiquette, extended an invitation to Gudako: "My lady, you've worked hard. It's time to take a good rest."

"Then I'll leave it to Brother Jiang You. I'm tired after running for so long..."

Merlin laughed and tried to follow Gudako and Matthew who were being carried away by the Hundred Faces.

"Mr. Merlin, do you also want to be a young lady?"

Jiang You grabbed Merlin's shoulder with such force that Merlin had to bite his lower lip to prevent himself from screaming.

"Those who are capable should do more work. You can't rest now, Merlin."

Is Shuten a first-class Heroic Spirit?

Undoubtedly, as the Demon King of Mount Ōeyama, Shuten's ability to hold her own against the mighty warriors of Heian-kyō for so long is undeniable. However, this is the Age of Gods, and Shuten's abilities are inherently weaker than Enki's, let alone inheriting Enki's power. Her heart is made of the Holy Grail's gold, and her weak (C) divine nature is countered, making her demise a logical consequence.

On the other hand, Ibaraki, without the divine power as a debuff, was less effective against the Divine Chains wielded by Kingu. Driven madly, she unleashed her magic power without restraint, her hair ablaze.

"Give Shuten back to me!"

Ibaraki roared and ran towards Jingu, with flames on the bone knife, forming a huge ghost head, roaring and chopping at Jingu's head!

Even if Jingu believed in the resistance of this body, he would not take this move head-on. He quickly used the Heavenly Chains to form a line of defense in front of him to block Ibaraki's slash, while his body quickly retreated.

At this moment, Ibaraki's full-strength slash, leaving no room for retreat, missed, leaving him powerless to continue. Although it was only a moment, Kingu still seized this opportunity, and several Heavenly Chains flew out from under his clothes, heading straight for Ibaraki's head, throat, and heart. For most Servants, these are also vital points.

Seeing that it was too late to swing her bone knife again, Ibaraki raised her arm directly. With a ferocious expression, she tried her best to drain out her magic power.

"Turn my rage into karmic fire! Rush, blazing fire! Rashomon's great resentment arises!!!"

The blazing, gigantic ghost hand pressed down on Jin Gu like a tidal wave, instantly melting the Heavenly Chains that formed his attack. In a split second, it reached Jin Gu. Jin Gu had no time to dodge before the ghost hand grasped him firmly. Then, a massive column of karmic fire erupted, reducing an area dozens of meters in an instant to scorched earth.

"Hahahahahaha! This is what happens when you hurt Shuten!"

Exhausted, Ibaraki used the bone knife to support himself and prevent himself from falling to the ground, "Shuten, did you see that? I avenged you!"

"Really? I've been underestimated!"

Jin Gu grinned as he crawled out of the mud. His body was originally made of mud, and these stains actually repaired the wounds on his body, so he didn't look so embarrassed.

"Is this your most proud move? This body is connected to the earth. As long as my magic power is not exhausted, I am immortal. Do you think you can defeat me like this?"

Several chains restrained Ibaraki's attempts to resist, and Kingu hung her up.

"Although the ghost just now had better physical fitness, it was too prickly, and I really couldn't use too much force. I can only make do with you for a while. After all, the battle between the three goddesses is about to start, and we are really short of people here."

"It's impossible for a ghost to surrender!"

Ibaraki gritted his teeth and said, "I lost, I lost. Kill me!"

"Surrender?"

Jin Gu laughed heartily, seemingly having heard something funny. "That's not necessary at all. Mother and I only want your body. Your thoughts and opinions are not important at all. Don't worry, we will make good use of you."

At this moment, several golden Noble Phantasms fell to the place where Enkidu had just been, and then several slashing Noble Phantasms cut off the chains that bound Ibaraki.

"who is it!"

Jin Gu sensed a hint of danger.

"Don't make such an expression on the face of my dearest friend."

The King of Uruk (front) stood in front of Jingu and said, "I will kill you! For the sake of my friend's health, could you please commit suicide here?"
