FATE: Target of Grand Master

"That Gorgon guy!"

Running away is something that Jingu would find unacceptable, except perhaps for being reformed.

The reason is simple: in this attack, whether the Gorgons live or die, Kingu can accept it, but running away would only bring everything back to square one.

He had worked so hard to coordinate the "Six Goddess Alliance" and made so many efforts for his mother's return, but in the end he was still stuck in the same place. Who could bear that?

"Tch, I'll remember this. I'll pay you back double next time!"

After uttering a harsh remark, Kingu used all his strength to break free from Ibuki's entanglement and flew towards the Blood Temple.

"Huh? What are those two doing? They're gone already?"

When Typhon saw Gorgon and Kingu withdraw one after another, he showed a disdainful expression. They had talked so well before, saying that they would definitely be able to break through Uruk this time, and they even insisted that he help them. In the end, they couldn't even break through the northern wall defense line.

The leader led the escape, the second leader hurriedly chased after him, while he, the assistant, dutifully stayed on the battlefield.

Typhon wasn't stupid. Without Gorgon and Kingu present, the remaining monsters were merely the achievements of the Servants from Uruk. It was time for him to retreat.

"finally found you."

Just as Typhon was about to leave, a series of black guns fell from the sky, surrounding him.

Typhon looked up and saw that Morgan, who should have been petrified and shattered, had reappeared in front of him.

If Typhon hadn't used the anti-wish machine's ability to stop Euryale earlier, Morgan wouldn't have been able to pinpoint her location so quickly. But in order to prevent the worst-case scenario from happening, Typhon, as a partner, had no choice but to intervene, which gave Morgan the clue that he was using magic.

Without hesitation, Typhon immediately transformed into black mud, preparing to escape through the gaps in the black spear. However, the seemingly flawed black spear cage concealed multiple spells, making it impossible for even a grain of sand to escape.

"Oh? This is your ability? Just as expected, it's exactly the same as the components of those Shadow Followers."

Seeing that he could not escape, Typhon had no choice but to transform into human form again and chat with Morgan.

"Who exactly are you? You're just a fairy, yet you possess magical power that rivals that of a god."

Morgan had no obligation to answer the other party's questions, and she answered questions in return.

"Wasn't that you in Kussa that day? Where did you hide Nero?"

Seeing that someone was still eyeing the insurance he had casually grabbed, Typhon now had some leverage in negotiations.

"That's right, I did take that red Saber with me. If you don't let me leave, you'll never find her again."

"You dare threaten me?"

Morgan wasn't buying it at all, and black cursed flames began to rise from the black gun cage.

Although Typhon felt extremely pained, he was also a strong-willed person.

"If you kill me here, you'll never find her again!"

Typhon reiterated this point, but Morgan replied, "Whether Nero is missing or dead, it's not necessarily a bad thing for me. Besides, she's not that easy to kill."

Morgan remained completely unthreatened, which put Typhon in a difficult position, since he was currently being kept in a cage and grilled.

"What will it take for you to let me go?"

Typhon's tone softened somewhat.

"Tell me everything you know, including where Nero is, and I'll give you a quick death. Otherwise..."

Morgan gave a cold smile.

"I will watch you burn to ashes here, bit by bit."

"All right."

Typhon, like a deflated balloon, seemed to have given up the struggle.

"I can tell you everything I know, but I need a promise from you."

"What?"

"After I tell you everything I know, you must release me from my restraints before you kill me."

Do you think I'm as easy to fool as that stupid emperor?

Morgan scoffed dismissively.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Once I release you, you'll run away immediately. I advise you to give up your illusions and confess honestly. Your death here is inevitable, and I hope you can face this reality."

You said "hope," right?

Typhon suddenly revealed a triumphant smile.

"Hope is a wish, therefore I can declare that your wish will not come true!"

Bang bang bang!

The spells cast on the Black Gun Cage instantly failed, resulting in a series of explosions.

Once Morgan used a spell to disperse the smoke and dust, Typhon was no longer in the black gun cage.

"Tch. I can't believe I got tricked."

Morgan hadn't expected that the other party had a special mechanism that could break free from his restraints, but now that things had come to this, it was almost impossible to track her down, so Morgan had no choice but to return to Xia Yan's side.

Outside the northern defensive line, the situation immediately reversed after the monster army lost two major forces, the Gorgon and the Kingu.

The Uruk forces, who had initially focused on defense and attrition, began to launch a counterattack.

A fierce wind, unleashed by Ibuki, swept the monsters into the air and then airdropped them back into the monster army, creating a situation where enemy monsters were either bombarded or killed by the bombardment, resulting in a doubled effect.

On the ground, Quetzalcoatl's wrestling techniques were on full display. Those terrifying second-generation monsters were like helpless children in front of the Sun Goddess, being defeated by Quetzalcoatl with one punch after another.

With the help of the two goddesses, the other Servants also joined the fight against the monster army.

The leopard man, Cú Chulainn Alter, Musashi, and Red Hare each killed a large number of enemies, while Chen Gong and Zhang Liao, who had been greatly exhausted in the previous battle, and Euryale, who existed as a weapon for "anti-Gorgon special attack", rested on the north wall.

Originally, Euryale wanted to go directly to Gorgon, but after Xia Yan's persuasion, she agreed to wait until Xia Yan and the others had rested before going to the Blood Temple.

Anyway, Gorgon won't run away, and even if she wanted to, Kingu wouldn't let her leave, otherwise Tiamat would really never be able to get out.

After Morgan, who had returned to Xia Yan's side, explained how Typhon had escaped from her, Xia Yan finally confirmed Typhon's true identity.

Typhon Ephemeros is a being formed by the combination of the Primordial Dragon Typhon and the "Fruit of Impermanence" that Typhon ate, which prevents wishes from being fulfilled. It is commonly known as the Fruit Dragon.

It is precisely because it has a mechanism similar to the anti-wish machine that it was able to eliminate Ibuki's ability to control lightning, interrupt Euryale's persuasion of Gorgon, and thwart Morgan's wish to kill her.

The initial kill was indeed very effective against this guy. Xia Yan did not blame Morgan for it. After all, it was confirmed that Nero, who had been missing for a long time, had been abducted by Typhon. Given that Typhon's location had not been found before, she was most likely hiding in her partner Gorgon's Blood Temple. In this way, defeating Gorgon and defeating Typhon, as well as rescuing Nero, could be carried out at the same time.

Thanks to the efforts of the seven Servants, the last monster was finally killed before the last glimmer of twilight disappeared.

Although Xia Yan intentionally instructed the Servants to conserve their magic power and not unleash their full strength, the fact that they had been killing for an entire day demonstrated just how terrifying the number of monsters in this army was.

To prevent Gorgon, Kingu, and Typhon from turning back and launching a surprise attack, Xia Yan and Diao Yunshang did not leave the North Wall. After communicating with Feng Yan and Lan Muyan, who were left behind in Uruk, they confirmed that the few remaining magical beasts that had been missed from the North Wall had also been completely annihilated. Only then did the two of them finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The largest monster horde Uruk had ever encountered, and also the longest day the two had ever experienced, had finally come to an end.
