Chapter 34 The Hanging Gardens of the Assyrian Empress

The darkness before dawn is the deepest, but the shadow hanging over Tulipas at this moment does not originate from the night.

The enormous roar even drowned out the sound of the wind in the open field.

The clouds were roughly pushed aside, and a floating island comparable to a mountain slowly lowered its altitude.

A massive rock base upon which are arranged temples, corridors, and exotic green vegetation.

The Red Team's headquarters – the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.

This is not only a fortress, but also a Noble Phantasm belonging to the Crimson Assassin (Semiramis).

The Great Hall of the Fortress of Mirania.

"How is this possible... they actually moved the entire temple to the heavens?"

Danic stared intently at the images transmitted back by the monitoring technique, his face deathly pale.

As the de facto leader of the Black side, he felt an unprecedented crisis.

This is not just a sense of oppression due to its size, but also a kind of conceptual erosion.

On the throne, Vlad III, who had been calm and composed, now had a furrowed brow and clutched his chest.

"This feels... like my remaining land has been cut off?"

As a "guardian ghost general," he should have had a fame boost comparable to that of a god in Romania.

But the moment the garden covered the castle, the bonus disappeared.

That's 'usurpation'.

Luo Chen sat on the sofa, toying with a gold coin in his hand, his tone indifferent:

"That empress's Noble Phantasm will forcibly rewrite the surrounding space as 'the territory of the Assyrian Empire.' Since we're on someone else's land, you, the Grand Duke of Romania, are naturally fighting on foreign soil."

He looked up at the ceiling, as if he could see the queen above the clouds through the stone bricks:

"Although the methods are somewhat crude, it must be said that this is indeed the most effective way to deal with local bullies."

"What should we do then?" Gold asked in a panic. "Even the Grand Duke..."

"What's the panic?"

Morgan, sitting next to Luo Chen, snorted and put down his teacup.

She stood up, her black skirt billowing like a blooming night lotus, and a dangerous glint flashed in her beautiful sapphire eyes.

"It's nothing but a castle in the air built of stones. Did that Assyrian woman think she could look down on me just by piling up earth to the sky?"

"To flaunt one's 'dominance' and 'architecture' before the Queen of Britain is truly like showing off one's limited skills before an expert."

A hanging garden, between thrones.

Seated on a massive obsidian throne was a woman of breathtaking beauty.

She had long black hair and golden eyes, and pointed ears.

With her inhuman bloodline.

The Crimson Assassin, Semiramis, the Assyrian empress.

Beside her stood a young man dressed as a priest, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada.

"That's a really interesting reaction."

Semiramis gazed at the image reflected in the water mirror, a playful smile curving her lips:

"I originally thought that suppressing Vlad III would throw the Black faction into chaos. But I didn't expect that the suddenly appearing 'White faction' would show no fear at all."

She narrowed her eyes, her gaze focusing on the woman in black:

"That woman... has an unpleasant aura about her. Is it a clash between two 'Empresses' of the same kind?"

"Don't let your guard down, Assassin."

Amakusa Shiro's expression was grave. "That Master named Luo Chen, and that Fairy Knight who instantly killed Spartacus, are both extraordinary beings. This attack must be launched with all our might."

He turned around and looked towards the entrance of the main hall.

There stood a white-haired man clad in golden armor, radiating a dazzling aura of battle like the blazing sun.

Karna, the Red Lancer.

The hero of charity, the top ace in this Holy Grail War.

"Lancer, go," Amakusa Shiro ordered. "As the vanguard, go and test the enemy's strength. If they are truly powerful, you must be eager for a fight, right?"

"learn."

Karna nodded slightly, his voice cold and calm:

"Since the Master has given the order, I will use this spear to clear away all obstacles. Neither black nor white can hide before the sun."

boom!

A golden meteor fell from the Sky Garden, heading straight for the gates of the Mirenia fortress.

Ground, fortress vestibule.

"They're here."

Luo Chen stood up and patted the hem of his clothes.

He could feel the heatwave, as if it were about to ignite the air, approaching. It was the oppressive aura unique to top-tier heroic spirits.

"Saber (Siegfried), go."

Luo Chen didn't send his own servants to attack, but instead looked at Siegfried, who had remained silent:

"This is your battle. A dragon slayer must not only know how to kill dragons, but also how to face the sun."

"If you can't even get past this hurdle, then you're not qualified to be my subordinate."

Siegfried didn't speak, but silently gripped his greatsword, Balmonk.

He nodded and strode out of the city gate.

Although his Master Gordes was still trembling, Siegfried's eyes were filled with nothing but fighting spirit.

Outside the city gate.

The golden flames dissipated, and Karna, holding the Spear of God, stood silently on the scorched earth.

He looked at Siegfried as he walked out, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes:

"Nice eyes. Are you Saber from the Black side?"

"Exactly," Siegfried replied in a deep voice. "Siegfried."

"Karna".

There was no unnecessary small talk.

The moment the two heroic spirits announced their true names, they also unleashed the magical power within them.

boom--!!!

The fire of the sun clashed violently with the energy of the dragon-slaying sword.

In just the first round of probing, the overflowing shockwave shattered all the glass within a hundred meters.

On the city floor.

Luo Chen leaned against the railing, looking down at the fierce battle below as if watching a play.

"Is this the hero who gives alms? He's ridiculously strong."

Karna's martial arts skills, magical power, and golden armor that made him virtually immune to all damage gave him an absolute advantage in this battle.

Despite having the Blood Armor of the Evil Dragon, Siegfried still struggled against Karna's divine attacks.

"Arthur".

Morgan walked to Luo Chen's side, but his gaze was not on the battle below. Instead, he stared intently at the huge sky garden above.

"That Assyrian woman is provoking me."

"She's using the magic of that floating island to suppress the ley lines here, trying to disable my spell."

Morgan sneered, and the magic circuit in her hand began to operate wildly, black magic surging behind her like a tide:

"I'm going to go up and tear that broken rock down."

"Don't rush, darling."

Luo Chen reached out and put his arm around Morgan's waist, calming the queen who was about to explode:

"It's better to leave the rough work of dismantling the house to Meilushin."

"and……"

Luo Chen looked up, a glint of light flashing in his crimson dragon eyes:

"Since it's an 'Empress' versus a 'Queen,' it's pointless to just demolish her house."

"When she's revealed all her cards and thinks she has everything under control, then you completely crush her pride from the front. That's what true 'domination' is, isn't it?"

Morgan paused for a moment, then gave a stunning yet chilling smile.

She stretched out her finger and drew circles on Luo Chen's chest:

"How wicked, Your Majesty. But... I really like this script."

Just then.

A sharp screech suddenly came from the sky.

Black Rider Astolfo, riding his eagle, was desperately dodging several red magic beams.

"Waaaaah! Help, Master! A big sister with a bow is chasing me! And that heel is coming too!"

Luo Chen sighed.

Looks like my leisure time is over.

He released Morgan and turned to look at Artoria and Melusin, who were already poised to attack.

"Melushin, go and stop that Greek by the heel. Remember, don't kill him, I want him alive (to use as a punching bag)."

"Saber, go help Siegfried. Two against one may not be honorable, but this is still war."

"As for me..."

Luo Chen's figure slowly floated into the air.

"Since that Amakusa Shiro wants to have a grand finale, then I'll go and give him a 'big gift'."
