Space was frozen.

The believer, who had rushed halfway, was shocked to find that her body was completely immobile. The surrounding space was like a quagmire, trapping her body tightly and preventing her from moving an inch.

“That’s enough for now,” Carter said with a smile, appearing beside Remilia at some point. He glanced at his watch. “It’s time to say goodbye. I had a great time in today’s battle. I look forward to seeing you even stronger next time, hehehe.”

A strong blue light accompanied the operation of the magic inscription array. Only then did the believer realize that the magic inscription array in the small room had not been damaged at all during the previous battle. The incantations were not carved on the ground, but were directly engraved in the air, so they could not be destroyed at all.

This reaction is teleportation; oh no, he's going to escape.

The believer struggled to twist his body, but could not move an inch.

“Give up, Miss Believer. Spatial locking is a technique that cannot be broken by brute force,” Carter sighed and shook his head as he watched the believer’s actions. “In the end, the power I have mastered, which allows me to control space, is not on the same level as yours. With what you have, it is impossible for you to break free from my control.”

"Oh, so that means if someone can understand the nature of your power, they can truly influence you, right?"

A hearty male voice suddenly broke in at that moment.

What? There are other people here!

"Who?"

Carter turned around abruptly, only to see a scarlet magic gun right in front of him.

“Gae Bolg!”

The spear, imbued with powerful magic and glowing crimson, pierced through Karl's body, sending him flying out of the magic circle and pinning him to the wall of the large white room outside. Then, a man in a blue bodysuit landed within the magic circle, casually inscribing a few runes, instantly halting the array's operation. The originally bright blue light within the array quickly dimmed.

At the same time, the believer regained control of his body and landed smoothly on the ground.

"who are you?"

Frowning, the believer looked at the man before him and asked.

"Just consider him a passerby who couldn't stand the sight of this and decided to meddle, haha," the man said, scratching his head and laughing heartily. "After all, I really dislike people who act all high and mighty and then try to taunt their opponents instead of fighting properly."

As he spoke, the man flicked his wrist, and a streak of red light flashed past, bringing the scarlet spear back into his hand, with blood still slowly dripping from its tip.

Chapter 28, Section 169: A Three-Way Battle

"Cú Chulainn?"

With a grim expression, Carter clutched his chest and slowly stood up from the ground. His gaze fell on Cú Chulainn not far away, his expression extremely unpleasant.

"Has the Land of Shadows decided to intervene in this incident? Hmph, how nosy they are."

"To be able to say such a thing without batting an eye, you really are a shameless fellow," Cú Chulainn grinned, revealing a bloodthirsty smile like that of a vicious dog, brandishing his spear. "The Scarlet family was originally a force under the Shadow Kingdom. You, who almost wiped them out, dare to say we're meddling in other people's business?"

"Hmph, so you're using that as an excuse now?" Carter laughed, his face full of disdain and mockery. "I seem to remember that when the Extinction Order was issued, the Queen didn't react at all."

Before he could finish speaking, the crimson demonic spear swiftly struck him. Kalter frowned and dodged, but the spear tip seemed to have eyes, relentlessly following his every move, impossible to shake off. In the blink of an eye, the sharp, barbed spear pierced Kalter's body once more, leaving a gaping hole in his stomach.

But at the same moment, Carth also extended his right hand and clenched it tightly in mid-air. The next second, the space in which Cú Chulainn was located twisted and deformed like a piece of paper being squeezed, and Cú Chulainn, who was in the middle of it, was instantly pulverized.

"Hmph, vulnerable."

Not even bothering to look at the consequences of his casual attack, Carter stood up and prepared to walk towards Remilia, but a whooshing sound suddenly rang out behind him. He had no choice but to wave his hand, releasing a pale blue light barrier to block the swift attack. Then, he looked in surprise at the unharmed Cú Chulainn in front of him, holding a gun in one hand and a long wooden staff in the other.

So that's how it is. Is it Rune?

Turning to look at the Cú Chulainn he had previously crushed to death, as he expected, the mutilated corpse had been reduced to a broken wooden stake.

"Was that move just now a substitution, or a clone?"

Carter asked with some curiosity.

"Strictly speaking, this is the first time I've ever seen a real primordial rune. I can't tell the difference at all. The wisdom of the ancient gods is truly admirable."

"Don't worry, this is the last time you'll see real runes."

Cú Chulainn grinned menacingly, instantly appearing beside Kal't at incredible speed. The solid ground beneath his feet twisted and shattered under his stomp, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze. Cú Chulainn accelerated to a level far exceeding his previous performance, raising his spear to pierce Kal't's skull.

But then, his spear struck empty air, and Carter vanished from where he had been, reappearing in an open space not far away.

Spatial transfer? No, that's not right, it's distorted space. So, it's just a fake image created by distorted light and shadow?

"What a slippery fellow."

Cú Chulainn snorted coldly, turned to face Kal't, who was floating in mid-air not far away, and the killing intent in his eyes became even more intense.

The followers had been merely observing the battle between the two from beginning to end. There was nothing they could do; Carter had already determined that some special power she couldn't handle prevented the followers from harming him. Furthermore, this newly appeared Cú Chulainn had previously fought against Li Chengwuming of the Sixth Group, possessing formidable strength and whose allegiance was uncertain. Therefore, remaining inactive for the time being was the wisest choice.

However, perhaps we can take Remilia away while they are fighting.

"Hey, kid over there, let me give you a piece of advice: don't make any rash moves," Cú Chulainn suddenly said in a cold voice before he could even move, "This place is my hunting ground, and I won't allow anyone to take away my spoils."

As he spoke, Cú Chulainn brandished his spear, and immediately the believers felt as if they were being locked onto by something.

This feeling... I see. So that red magic gun has tracking capabilities?

The situation is not good. The man named Carter has strange abilities that make him difficult to harm, while Cú Chulainn is powerful and carries a strange magic spear. Taking Remilia away under the watchful eyes of these two will probably not be an easy task.

If she were to fully unleash the powers she inherited from the previous Hassans, she should still be able to kill them, but in that situation, Remilia, who was also present, would likely be caught in the crossfire. If she were to recklessly engage in combat, she might do something as foolish as killing a hostage while trying to save someone. Although deep down she really wanted to kill the short vampire, a follower wouldn't make that mistake.

Inside the empty white room, the three people on the scene suddenly froze. Each was observing the other, and no one made a move. The atmosphere seemed to have become stiff.

"what!"

Just then, Cú Chulainn suddenly roared, his spear unleashing astonishing magical power as he thrust it directly towards Carter. The intense magical force shattered the ground. Carter, however, had already vanished, appearing before Remilia and preparing to take her away.

But strands of long, black hair, seemingly alive, stopped him. The believer appeared silently behind him, his long hair sweeping out and binding his body tightly. Then, deadly poison gas was released directly from the hair.

"Humph!"

The air twisted unnaturally, ripping off all the believer's hair, then transforming into a powerful destructive shockwave that struck him. Kalter staggered back several steps, his body heating up as he forced out the poisonous mist. Cú Chulainn, however, darted in front of him, his spear flashing like a venomous snake, forcing Kalter to constantly dodge and counterattack.

Ignoring the mangled hair that Carter had ripped out, the follower rushed to Remilia's side, ready to grab her and leave. But a rune carved in a hidden spot on the ground suddenly lit up, instantly transforming into a massive, three-meter-tall, burning humanoid figure woven from vines, which nearly seized the follower.

When did this guy bury this rune?

Giving Cú Chulainn a hateful glare as he relentlessly pursued Kal't, the follower dodged the vine giant's attack, then unleashed the Black Flame of the Other Shore, burning the giant to ashes. Brushing the dust off his clothes, the follower prepared to advance again, but the runes before Remilia lit up once more, and yet another vine giant emerged.

Infinite Summoning?

The believer dodged the giant's blow in a sorry state, retreating seven or eight meters away, and cautiously observed the vine giant's movements.

"That's enough! I don't have time to play with you, you stray dog!"

Carter roared, and the space around his body instantly froze, turning into violent fluctuations that swept outwards in all directions. Cú Chulainn thrust his spear into the ground, attempting to withstand the fluctuations, but was forcefully pushed back more than ten meters, carving a deep trench in the ground.

Seeing that the other party was completely disregarding Remilia's situation, the believer had no choice but to quickly crawl under the vine giant's legs and rush in front of Remilia to protect her. As a result, he was thrown away by a huge force and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Hmph, what a waste of time! The intercontinental teleportation array has been destroyed. What an utterly wasteful accident. If I weren't in such a hurry, I would have torn you all to shreds."

His elegance was completely gone. Carter spoke with a ferocious expression, and purplish-blue veins gradually emerged from his face. His pupils turned blood red, and his aura changed abruptly, instantly overwhelming the other two people present.

"They're actually going to unseal your bloodlines, how annoying!"

Carter snorted and raised his hand, unleashing a blue magical beam at Cú Chulainn. Cú Chulainn slammed his hand on the ground, summoning numerous vines to shield himself, but was still blasted dozens of meters away, crashing into a wall. Immediately afterward, he waved his hand, shielding Remilia from the entire shockwave. The follower, now immobilized, was lifted by an invisible force and hurled far away.

In the blink of an eye, the two men who had previously been able to fight him on equal terms were now in two states: one had suffered at least a serious injury, and the other had essentially lost the ability to fight.

"Alright, now that no one's bothering us, let me take you away from here, Remi."

In a flash, Carter appeared directly in front of Remilia, smiling as he reached out to grab her shoulder. But the smile vanished the next instant.

“Personally, I think that in matters like this, you should at least respect the wishes of the person involved. Right, Mr. Carter?”

Emerging from the dark rift, with a few drops of blood splattered on his face and clothes, Li Cheng spoke calmly, reaching out a hand to tightly grasp the hand that Carter had extended towards Remilia.

Here's today's update. By the way, I've been updating after 11 PM for the past few days now?

By the way, the reader Q&A group number is 701875520.

Chapter 29, Section 170: The Divine Gun, and the Battle of the End

Rescue work is underway on a bustling street—or rather, a street that was once bustling but is now shattered, littered with ruins and corpses.

Search and rescue workers continuously lifted surviving people onto anti-gravity ambulances, used machinery to rescue survivors who were trapped under heavy objects and unable to move, adopted various emergency first aid measures to try to revive some of the more weak injured, and covered those who had been confirmed dead with white veils and carried them away from the scene.

The death toll continues to rise, from dozens at the beginning to more than two hundred dead and injured now. The severity of this incident far exceeds expectations, not to mention the economic losses caused by the damage to roads, bridges, and other infrastructure. Without a doubt, this is a disaster.

Standing atop a distant high-rise, watching all this unfold, Kiritsugu Emiya coldly lit a cigarette, saying nothing. He silently observed the horrific screams of the wounded, the weeping children, and the frantically busy rescue workers. His gaze swept over the now-empty building in the distance, and he slightly tightened his grip on the gun in his hand.

"Om-"

An unusual, muffled sound, accompanied by a slight tremor in the ground, reached the surface. For those engaged in the rescue efforts, this level of tremor was barely perceptible. However, for Kiritsugu Emiya, located on the top floor, it was an exceptionally clear sensation.

What happened next?

Kiritsugu Emiya frowned deeply, and a sense of worry lingered between his brows.

Meanwhile, deep underground within the building, in a massive, white room with a strong futuristic feel, a violent burst of energy has nearly destroyed everything.

A bizarre power, almost capable of crushing space, collided and erupted with an unshakeable purple demonic energy. The once white room had now become a massive pile of rubble. And under the relentless, powerful collision, it continued to crumble and collapse.

Through the bloodline contract with the demon from the gap, Li Cheng gained control of the realm's power. He stretched out his hand, and the dispersing and converging realm transformed into a large area radiating purple light mist, continuously shattering and disintegrating the powerful force released by Karl on the other side. However, this power itself consumed Li Cheng's demonic energy, and Li Cheng, who had not yet fully comprehended this power, was already beginning to feel the strain.

Is this guy's magic power a bottomless pit? Unleashing such a large-scale, powerful destructive attack continuously for over ten minutes is far beyond the normal magic power accumulation of an A-rank expert.

As if sensing that Li Cheng was struggling to hold on, Carter immediately increased the speed at which he released his power, putting even more pressure on Li Cheng.

"Hmph, so it's already too late?"

Suspended in mid-air, surrounded by an extremely violent energy field, Carter grinned maliciously and looked at Li Cheng in front of him, coldly saying:

"With your foolish mind, how could you possibly understand the power you hold? In such a confrontation, you will be the only loser."
