Outside the temple, a loud shout came from afar, growing louder as it approached.
Although the North Wall is a short distance from Uruk, Orpheus has also set up a Noble Phantasm that can transmit messages, allowing for instant communication by expending some magical energy.
A soldier rushed in, holding a transparent sphere in his hand.
Orpheus sighed; the temple was certainly bustling today…
"King Orpheus, Tiamat... it's the goddess Tiamat, she... she suddenly appeared! The North Wall, the North Wall is about to fall!"
"..."
After a half-second silence, judging that it would be difficult to get any information from this soldier who seemed to have suffered a great shock, Orpheus looked at Chaldea and the others.
"Proceed according to the plan you just discussed. I will take care of the North Wall issue."
After saying this, Orpheus flicked his robes and prepared to leave.
"and many more!"
At that moment, Ritsuka suddenly grabbed her sleeve.
"Let's go too."
Looking back at Ritsuka's determined gaze, Orpheus frowned again.
"Compared to the feathered serpent god, which ultimately only suffers slow damage, isn't the threat from the North Wall much greater? If it can't be resisted, then the entire Uruk will be tantamount to destruction, won't it?"
"..."
Orpheus fell silent.
"Of course, this is not because we don't trust King Orpheus, but in this situation, it's always better to have more power, isn't it?"
Seeing Orpheus's slightly narrowed eyes, Ritsuka quickly added.
"Alright, you can take a good look at it first..."
After considering it for a moment, Orpheus suddenly chuckled and nodded.
"Unlike Quetzalcoatl's previous petty squabbles, where he didn't even release energy to the point where I could perceive it, this is the true, serious power of a god..."
────────────────────────────────
Before the north wall of Uruk, a rather enormous 'monster' was lurking there.
The monster's upper body is that of a human woman, a rather beautiful mature woman... provided you ignore its height of about ten meters, while its lower body is that of a snake, which is over a hundred meters long.
The snake woman was in a terrible mood.
While the protracted tug-of-war may have stemmed from a desire to toy with the prey, it was more of a preparation for other things.
However, she was already impatient for revenge.
Finally, her patience was worn to the limit, and today she decided to take matters into her own hands and forcefully break through this seemingly insurmountable northern wall.
However, something she never expected actually happened...
A mere few ants actually managed to stop her, the mother goddess of all beasts—the goddess Tiamat!
"That's it. Even if you are a god, I will not let you pass through here."
Holding the sacred banner before her, Joan of Arc declared with unwavering resolve.
Beside her stood Altira, sword in hand.
"You insignificant ant... die!"
The snake woman opened her eyes and stared straight at Joan of Arc, but the latter gritted her teeth, her body only seeming slightly heavier, with no other major changes.
Altira, who was beside her, was different; part of her body had turned into stone.
Almost simultaneously, a silvery-white magic circle unfolded beneath the two of them, and the next second, they returned to their normal state.
The snake goddess's expression darkened as she looked at the figure flying in the air, dressed in a pale purple, transparent robe.
"Is that the power of a Noble Phantasm...? To heal damage, to remove status ailments, or perhaps..."
The snake woman's opponent wouldn't give her time to think. A three-colored sword light suddenly flashed, and before she could react, a huge gash appeared on her abdomen.
"Damn it...how dare you..."
The snake woman truly erupted at this moment.
This injury was nothing to her; she would recover quickly. But the fact that the other party dared to hurt her was something she couldn't tolerate.
If it were a game like cat and mouse where you give your opponent a glimmer of hope, injure yourself, and then drive them to despair, then the snake woman could accept it. But this time, she was injured in a real battle, so how could she not be furious?
Even the snake woman herself didn't realize that she had come to regard the people in front of her as real opponents, rather than as playthings with her prey.
With an angry growl, the snake woman's long purple hair transformed into countless giant snakes, tearing at Altira, who had just jumped up to attack and was still in mid-air!
Chapter 78 Servant vs. Serpent
Facing the approaching giant serpent, Altira used a small amount of magic to adjust her body slightly in mid-air, and then swung the God of War Sword in her hand.
The three-colored blades extended out, transforming into whip-like movements that lashed out rapidly, repelling all the giant snakes under Altira's control.
"Humph……"
The snake woman scoffed disdainfully. The giant snake opened its mouth wide, and purple poisonous mist gathered inside, about to be spewed towards Altira.
Even with magic released, Altira is ultimately unable to fly. Her agility in the air is naturally not the same as on the ground. If she were to be sprayed like that by the opponent, although she would not be harmed, she would still be flustered for a while, and she would inevitably expose some flaws.
However, there was no worry in Altira's expression.
In her past life, she always charged ahead alone, fighting on her own. Before that, she didn't even have anyone who could be called her a companion... But now, she is different!
On the north wall of the city, a blue light suddenly appeared, and then flashed out. The light arrow, containing a large amount of magic power, hit the snake woman's face like a missile in an instant.
Rumble──
Blue flames erupted, engulfing the snake woman's entire upper body and simultaneously blocking the giant snake's breath. Altira was able to use the aftershocks to quickly adjust her position and land on the ground.
On the city wall, Arjuna drew his bow again, and the blue arrow of light reappeared on the bowstring.
Against enemies of that caliber, scattered bullets are ineffective; you must concentrate your power and aim for a single, decisive blow.
Therefore, he would cover his teammates while waiting for that opportunity to arrive.
This is Archer's duty; those who rush in with two swords are heretics!
"Aaaaaah, I'm going to devour you all!!!"
The snake woman roared, and the flames coiling around her were repelled by the surging magic. At the same time, the six giant snakes spat out a torrent of venom towards Altira, who was closest to her.
Just then, a holy figure rushed over and appeared in front of Altira, unfurling the holy banner and waving it forward.
A sacred golden light shone from the holy banner, and all the venom dissolved upon contact with it, leaving no trace of poison.
Although the snake woman seemed furious at this moment, a closer look at her eyes revealed a glimmer of clarity.
She knew very well that the most troublesome person for her was the saintess in front of her.
The opponent's magic resistance was incredibly high, comparable to that of a god. Her physical defense was equally astonishing; neither the magic eye, heavy blows, nor venom posed a fatal threat to her.
Even so, the snake woman's attacks are not entirely ineffective against her. Her demonic eyes alone can exert immense pressure on her. If she is alone, the snake woman would not mind slowly wearing her down until she is exhausted, and then toying with her to death.
However, if combined with a magician who flies around in the sky, who can immediately run far away after an attack, and suddenly fly back to heal his companions when you're not paying attention, all of this becomes quite troublesome.
The opponent's chanting was undoubtedly in the language of the gods, and the magic he used was also at the level of a god. When the snake woman was dealing with the attacks of the two henchmen, she basically had no way to deal with them. Moreover, the opponent's healing magic could instantly wipe out all the hard-earned gains she had made.
It can be said that as long as the witch's magic power has not been exhausted, these opponents can stand up again and continue fighting as long as they are not given a fatal blow that will kill them instantly!
What the snake woman found most unacceptable was...
The woman wielding the sword, and the guy firing arrows from afar—these two were the main attackers…
Their attacks actually made her feel quite threatened...
Especially the girl wielding the strange longsword; the sense of danger emanating from her had reached a deadly level.
Moreover, the sword wound in her abdomen has not yet fully healed!
Altira pointed the tricolored War God Sword at the Beast Mother Goddess with indifferent eyes.
The next second, her figure turned into a blur, bypassing the snake woman's upper body and slashing directly at her snake body, tearing open a huge gash.
"you……"
A look of horror flashed in the snake woman's eyes.
Her serpentine body is the largest, and although it's not a vital point, it often becomes the main target of attacks. Therefore, its scales are extremely hard, and even top-tier Noble Phantasms can't cut through them.
Now, this girl who appeared out of nowhere has cut it in half with a single sword strike, it's unbelievable!
The snake woman shuddered her snake body, coiled it around, and forced Altira back. Then, she looked solemnly at the Hunnic king of destruction.
This girl is too much of a threat... We must get rid of her today!
If someone were to observe her attribute panel and act upon it, they would discover that the divinity inherent in her original skills had disappeared.
Instead, it is——─
God-killing...A++!
────────────────────────────────
"It really is Tiamat..."
"Run! You can't win..."
"That's the power of the Mother Goddess! Can anyone really contend with something like that...?"
On the other side of the north wall, countless soldiers abandoned their weapons and armor and fled in panic.
The common people living in the town of Beibi were in an even worse situation. Not only did some flee, but many others were kneeling on the ground, trembling incessantly, or talking nonsense with lifeless eyes, clearly having given up.
Meanwhile, countless monsters took advantage of the fact that high-end combatants were unable to spare any attention and successfully broke through the city walls to enter the living area and wreak havoc.
Fortunately, a small number of soldiers still had the will to take up arms and fight, and these soldiers were elite; otherwise, the casualties would have been many times greater.
Orpheus stared at all of this with a blank expression.
"Lily, Mashu, hurry and help them!"
Seeing the tragic scenes unfolding, Ritsuka gritted her teeth and immediately gave orders to the two Servants behind her.
