The Holy Grail War Blessed by the Gods

"Oh, Marduk, you are the most glorious of all the gods, your status is unparalleled, and you command like Annu."

(iii) From this day forward, your decrees shall not be altered. All honor and disgrace, rise and fall, shall be at your command! Your words shall not be changed, your decrees shall not be disobeyed!

No god dares to offend your authority. The sanctuaries of the gods must be placed under your protection, and their temples shall be built in your territory.

5. O Marduk, you are our warrior, and we have given you the authority to rule the entire world. When you sit in the council chamber, your words will have supreme authority. May your weapons never fail, and may they severely wound the stubborn enemy.

"Ah, Your Majesty, I implore you to protect your supporters and put to death those who bring disaster upon themselves."

The murals of the gods sing loudly to the figure sitting on the throne, praising Manju, who possesses the power of Marduk, as if he were the god-king.

"Without a doubt, O Lord, your position is above that of the gods, and your decrees, whether of destruction or creation, will be put into practice!"

"Destroy it."

Amidst the singing of the gods, the king of gods uttered a decree, and everything was instantly destroyed.

The bodies of the demonic beasts that blocked the way, the tide of corruption flowing in the golden cup, and even the earth below, shrouded in yellow sand and curses—all were destroyed by the decree of the God-King.

In an instant, the world returned to chaos, and all tangible things vanished.

Let's rebuild it.

After the command to destroy, comes the command to create all things.

The destroyed world was immediately restored to its original state, but the great tide that had flowed in that desert and the crimson dragon's body no longer appeared.

8. The gods in the mural, witnessing the destruction and creation, were overjoyed and sang loudly:

(v) "Marduk is the King of Gods!"

(7) Chapter Forty-Eight: Heavenly Punishment

⑥ "Is this all you intend to do to drive me into a corner? Then let that arrogance turn into despair!"

⑥In that world that was destroyed and then recreated, a touch of gold has never been extinguished.

The golden cup, inlaid with various gems, is suspended in the air, with black smoke and currents overflowing from it, recreating the beast's body.

④ At this moment, the beast was no longer just an ordinary girl. The parts that originally had dragon scales on their bodies had completely transformed into dragon limbs, and a red dragon tail had grown behind them.

(iv) The tide of depravity surged from the cup once more, this time intending to swallow and break the tower that had been erected.

(ii) "No god was able to participate in the battle, and none survived from Tiamat."

But I can make all your ideas a reality, and I will trample Tiamat's neck.

Manju ignored the beasts below that were continuing to display their power, and instead addressed the gods in the surrounding murals who had gone from joy to silence.

The gods felt fear upon sensing the power possessed by the beasts, for they were not true gods, but merely murals painted here that possessed the power to move.

In that moment of shock, they could only remain silent, staring at the ground, sitting quietly with their mouths tightly shut.

“You already know that it is my words that determine destiny, not yours.”

The commands I issue are immutable and inviolable. The world you stand upon has been destroyed and recreated at my command. What questions do you now have?

I am your God-King, the greatest warrior who knows all mysteries! I am Marduk, the source of all conflict, possessing unparalleled power!

The fear in the hearts of the silent gods was thus dispelled, and they were filled with jubilation, raising their cups and forgetting everything.

They raised the scepter, lifted the throne, and brought weapons, establishing their authority on the throne as the sovereign of the gods, the unparalleled king of the gods.

"Go and end Tiamat's life, may the wind scatter her blood."

4 The gods proclaimed that the ceremony held here was now complete, and Manjushri had taken over the throne of the God-King. He only needed to set off to complete the conquest of the beasts.

"O beast of decadence, who tastes the decay and prosperity, your sins are unforgivable. Swallow your arrogance in death, for you have raised yourself too high and thus deserve an unjust death."

The radiance of countless forms has fallen into Manjusaka's hands; the position of God-King and absolute power are now unshakeable after the ritual is completed.

This was precisely in preparation for the coming time, even though everything was still an illusion, Marduk's power existed as reality within Manju.

This power was injected into the struggle to become a fortress, driven in as a fixed and real wedge.

Now, Zhū is simply strengthening this power through rituals, strengthening his power as the ruler within his own kingdom.

9. After seizing power, Manju completely dominated the area, using the tiny world he had created to oppress his enemies.

An extremely powerful and terrifying pressure fell on the beast's body. It was an ordinary force, and it probably couldn't control its body at all, causing all its attributes to drop drastically.

0 But the beast of revelation is not so poorly equipped; the only effect it can have is a strong sense of oppression and a slight reduction in attributes.

It seems like, "It's time to set off again and carve out the glory of conquering the beasts. You laughable beasts, wandering here, unable even to see yourselves, are destined to become the achievement that leads me to the throne of the god-king."

Whether it's the fickle fox scheming for profit, the venomous snake tempting others with its malice, the wolf bullying the weak and relying on its disguise, or even the brave and strong lion that can only become a hero, in the end, they are all just animals that have never escaped their nature.

(v) You are the same, wandering aimlessly on a blind path, never venturing into the future, only stepping towards the pit where you will fall again. But there is one thing you can do: open your eyes, raise your head, and look up to my divine might.

The desert below Lu has been swallowed up by the corrupt tide of beasts. The dark and foul-smelling things bring a terrible aura, threatening to corrupt the bronze tower to the point of fragility, causing it to break and collapse from the middle.

(4) But all of this can only be a fantasy, because the King of Gods has taken power from the hands of the gods, picked up his weapons, and established the guilt of that foolish beast.

"O great gods whose destiny is intertwined, my words cannot be changed, my decrees cannot be disobeyed, bestow your power upon me and clear the path ahead for my journey."

In Manju's voice, the murals, which were merely depictions of gods, seemed to be gods who had actually descended to this place.

They received the command from the god-king they had newly installed, and each unleashed their own power to stop the tide of corruption stirred up by the beasts.

They would not interfere in the actual battle between Manju and the beast; they would only stand by and provide support, reducing the power emanating from the beast in the surrounding area, and would not intervene in the actual contest between the two.

But at least it will save Manju some effort, as he won't have to break through the poisonous blood blocking his way first.

Now that the ceremony has begun, there is no reason for it to be changed.

The price for obtaining the throne of the god-king is to defeat the beast that terrifies the gods; this will be a one-on-one battle.

"Oh dear... You certainly deserve to be your opponent in person. Well, this is enough for entertainment, so rejoice in it."

Faced with the God-King descending from the sky, carrying the glory of the gods, the beasts roared with laughter.

"Those who pile up wealth on the earth, intending to reach the heavens... are sinners!"

The beast held up the golden cup in its left hand, and this time, it exuded an even greater and more powerful magical energy.

The deep red liquid, almost black, flowed out continuously, spreading out in a circle, and then surging upwards to build a prosperous golden theater.

This is the treasure held by the beast, resembling the Roman emperor who was its original form. However, in this golden theater, there is no joy, only despair.

Depicted in Revelation as a beast with seven heads and ten horns, the creature wearing ten crowns on its horns reveals its appearance.

The seven dragon heads were summoned with the appearance of the Golden Theater, and with the same judgmental voice of the beast, utter despair was bestowed upon them.

"Marduk and Baal shall appear in my hands. The Sun and Jupiter shall be the arrows of my conquest."

Manju opened his clenched fist, and lightning and fire intertwined on his two hands.

The powers of the two great gods were combined, and then Manjushri hurled it overhead, through the dome and up to the sun at the top of the tower.

Chapter Forty-Nine: Prohibition of Trade

The terrifying magical light that constantly emanated from the tower brought immense heat, even causing the surrounding environment to show signs of melting.

All the palaces on the fortress that were used to store magic and divine energy were constantly turning, like gears in a mechanical structure.

The entire massive fortress is like a sophisticated mechanical structure. Every building on the fortress is a part of this mechanical structure, and all the structures are tightly fitted together.

Like gears, the numerous buildings began to turn, constantly converging and filling, continuously guiding power, activating the central hub of the entire fortress along the magical circuits buried deep in the earth.

The towering tower connecting the sky and the earth—when Manjustra wove his fantasy of a hanging garden, what he needed was the lack of firepower.

The artillery firepower of the normal Hanging Gardens was nothing more than the Black Coffin of the Ten and One at that time. It might be worth a look in a normal Holy Grail War, but it was far from enough in this final singularity.

The Ishtar Gate was completed after Manjusaka's conception. It was an attempt to ensure that she could fulfill her vision, an architecture that connected with the concept of the goddess Ishtar's Noble Phantasm.

The true main cannon of the entire fortress is still the tower located in the center of the fortress, connecting heaven and earth. Based on the Temple of Marduk, it constructs the divine majesty brought by the illusion of the omnipotent.

Activating the entire tower was no simple task. The entire fortress came alive as if it were a machine, and the flowing magic within it could burn the entire fortress to ashes if the slightest mistake was made.

Only by taking over the supreme power of the main god at this moment, and completely controlling the entire world, can the god-king use his omnipotent vision to direct every inch of the magical power of the entire massive building, ensuring that everything is in accordance with the ruler's will without any deviation.

In order to deliver the strongest possible blow, the tower that Manshu painstakingly built was the best tool to unleash it.

And the most suitable shell to fill this perfect vessel is none other than the power of the three great gods who have been infused into the Manjushri spirit origin this time.

Manju's spiritual foundation has been established, and the powers of these three deities have been merged together. There is no need to spend time and effort to combine different things together or to find the connection between them.

Baal, the chief god of Canaan; Marduk, the god-king of Babylon; and Tescatlipoca, the omnipotent god of the Aztecs, were all the most powerful gods in their respective mythologies.

Having a real foundation to rely on, the power they wield is far greater than that summoned by mere words, and these three deities themselves possess sufficient status.

Therefore, there was no better choice for filling the core of the object. Both were perfect. The only thing missing was that everything was not yet completed.

At this moment, the weapons used to launch attacks still have shortcomings, but they are sufficient to repel beasts that are not fully developed or even lack sufficient power.

Moreover, there are still ways to make up for the shortcomings of the artifacts.

The power of Baal and Marduk has risen high into the sky and merged with the sun, which is the embodiment of Tescatlipoca, suspended atop the tower.

The dark current flowing in the distance is the hatred and turmoil that belong to Jerusalem, stirred up by the conflict.

That scarlet sun always stood and shone on the tower, unlike the pitch-black sun reflected in the flowing black current at the gates of Camelot.

Rather, the sun in Camelot is closer to the image of Tescatlipoca, with the crimson sun above it acting as another smokescreen for his avatar.

In the later stages of the development of Aztec mythology, the priests of Tescatlipoca proposed the Four Smoke Mirrors in an effort to unify the mythology.

The skinner Sipeteric, the left hummingbird Vizilopochtli, and the feathered serpent Quetzalcoatl were compiled by the priests into a smoke mirror, thereby elevating Tescatlipoca to the position of the supreme omnipotent god.

However, besides this, there is another version about the Red Smoke Mirror. Some versions believe that the Red Smoke Mirror is the Cloud Serpent God Miskoyatar.

Miskoyatar, the cloud serpent god, is the god of hunting, the great god who rules the galaxy and the stars in the sky, and the chief god of the Trascara, the sworn enemies of the Aztecs.

In some Chinese mythology, the Smoke Mirror once transformed into Miskowatt to bring fire to humankind.

The four hundred stars that the left hummingbird Vizilopochtli slew at his birth are also considered to be the son of Miskavatl.

In some legends, Miskowattl is also regarded as the father of Quetzalcoatl.

The sudden mention was simply to talk about the stars in the sky, which, after being shaped by the power of Tescatlipoca, were connected to the stars in the sky.

Those are not the stars in the real sky, but merely a conceptual starry sky, which is why Ishtarmen can actually be formed.

Otherwise, if you want to continuously activate the Ishtar Gate to shoot out the concept of Venus, just the Venus that brings the concept would be enough to consume most of your magic power.

Above the tower, dazzling starlight poured down, and countless glittering stars had somehow filled the sky.

Since the tower is not yet complete and is not a perfect tool for launching attacks, let's add some auxiliary vessels.
