Seven per thousand isn't stable? That's an outrageous demand!
Despite his inner urge to complain, Merlin obediently got to work.
Next, the entire altar became Her Majesty Queen Morgan's "construction site".
With an almost demanding precision and absolute authority, she directed Merlin to optimize and adjust every detail of the altar.
Yu Tohsaka watched from the sidelines and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "As expected of Morgan, she's really reliable as a teammate..."
Despite her cold demeanor, she is indeed exceptionally skilled in magic.
With that, things are settled here. All we have to do now is wait for the ceremony venue to be built, and make sure the Gorgons' 'kids' don't come in and cause trouble during that time.
Thinking of this, Tohsaka Yu quickly looked up towards the city gate outside the altar.
Perhaps... I should go and help?
……
Deep inside a dark, damp cave outside Uruk.
The Gorgon's enormous serpentine eyes burned with raging fury; her right hand clenched silently, her expression exceptionally agitated.
Just now, her elite magical beast troops, which were empowered by the power of "Solomon", were actually repelled by a newly emerged force, and even suffered heavy losses!
Using the residual magical energy she sensed and the vague information brought back by the surviving magical beasts, she quickly determined the other party's identity.
"Chaldea..."
Gorgon's voice was filled with savagery and impatience at being disturbed, "These bugs are such a nuisance!"
Gilgamesh and Merlin were already quite troublesome, and now with the addition of Chaldea, which has a firm stance and is specifically opposed to them, completely destroying Uruk seems to be much more difficult than expected.
Just as Gorgon was fidgeting with her snake tail, contemplating whether to take action herself, a gentle voice sounded behind her, as silent as a ghost.
"It seems the battle is not going as you wished, Gorgon."
A young man who called himself "Solomon" emerged slowly from the shadows with his signature, all-knowing smile.
Gorgon turned around abruptly, his purple snake eyes fixed on him: "They're just some slightly stronger ants. I can crush them anytime."
"But what about the power you promised? My patience is limited, Solomon!"
"Don't be impatient, the power will come naturally as promised."
Solomon smiled and said slowly, "But what you should really be paying attention to now... is perhaps not those people from Chaldea."
Gorky's snake-like eyes narrowed: VI Yiqi Yi Emuba is a group of eight "What does that mean?"
"Chaldea's goal is simple: to save humanity and eliminate what they consider 'evil'."
Solomon paced to the cave entrance, as if gazing at the distant Uruk Palace. "Although troublesome, their modus operandi... is predictable."
He abruptly changed the subject, his tone becoming meaningful: "But deep within that palace, there is someone... who seems to be doing something far more insane than Chaldea's 'saving the world'..."
"Something crazy?" Gorgon frowned slightly. "What do you mean?"
Solomon chuckled softly and said quietly, "I sensed that a massive and very special ritual is being initiated, and the core of the ritual seems to be related to that otherworldly visitor who carries the aura of the 'Creator Goddess'."
Gorgon's eyes flashed, his voice icy cold: "Isn't that perfect? Although we don't know what they're up to, we can take this opportunity to wipe them out in one fell swoop."
"exactly."
Solomon nodded and smiled, "This is an excellent opportunity for us."
“Gorgon… I think it’s time for you to take the initiative.”
……
Outside the gates of Uruk, a scene of utter carnage had been created.
The night was torn apart by towering flames, the light of magical explosions, and the crimson glint in the eyes of the monsters.
The earth trembled, and the air was thick with the stench of blood, gunpowder, and the nauseating stench emanating from the monsters.
The monstrous army spawned by the Gorgons surged like an endless black tide, relentlessly crashing against the ancient and sturdy walls of Uruk.
Unlike the previous days, this time the surging monsters were not only more numerous, but also included a large number of mutated species that were larger and more ferocious and twisted in appearance!
Some of them were covered in black bone armor, some could spew corrosive venom, and some could even unleash inferior but deadly dark magic, causing huge casualties to the defenders.
"Hold on! The defensive line cannot be retreated!!"
A heavily armored Uruk general, wielding a long spear, roared hoarsely. His soldiers, though filled with fear, gritted their teeth and used their spears and bows to repel or kill the attacking monsters time and time again.
Behind the soldiers, an even more dazzling light was shining.
"—Go! Mash!"
"Yes, senior!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka stood on a relatively safe high point on the castle wall, her eyes fixed on the chaotic battlefield below, and calmly issued commands.
Beside her, Mashu's petite figure stood like the strongest bulwark at the forefront of the battle!
"Ugh——!"
A mutated monster resembling a giant scorpion lion, spewing black flames, pounced, its massive claws lashing out at Mash with a fierce gust of wind that tore through the air.
"Announcing—this is the distant ideal city (Lord Camelot)!"
Mashu's shield instantly unfolded, and a dazzling phantom of a city wall rose from the ground, forcefully blocking the terrifying blow that was powerful enough to shatter rocks!
The immense impact shattered the stone bricks beneath her feet, but she did not retreat an inch, creating a safe haven for the soldiers and other Servants behind her.
Under Mashu's impenetrable defense, the other reinforcements were also fighting fiercely.
"For the glory of Sparta—!!!"
The bare-chested lion, Leonidas I, King of Sparta, holding a shield and spear, is like a rock, nailed to a gap in the defensive line.
On the other side, a petite and delicate figure moved like a ghost through the horde of monsters.
That was the genius swordsman Ushiwakamaru. The thin blade in her hand was as fast as lightning, and each flash was accompanied by the howl of a monster and the dismemberment of its limbs.
With the help of Chaldea, along with the soldiers of Uruk and the heroic spirits summoned by Gilgamesh, the originally precarious defensive line was miraculously stabilized!
Even after paying a heavy price, they began to slowly push the monsters' offensive forward!
"Very good, keep this formation and press forward!" Fujimaru Ritsuka saw that the battle situation had improved slightly and felt more at ease, so she immediately gave the order.
The dawn of victory seems to be just around the corner...
But at this moment——
Without warning, an indescribable aura, filled with endless resentment and primal fear, swept across the entire battlefield like an invisible tide! (II) jiuixI傘锍
The clamor of battle cries, the roars of monsters, the clanging of weapons... all seemed to fall silent in that instant!
All the creatures engaged in battle—whether human soldiers, Chaldea Servants, or those crazed monsters—involuntarily froze in their movements!
The air became exceptionally thick, making even breathing incredibly difficult. The dark clouds in the sky had grown thicker and blacker, as if some terrifying force far beyond imagination was about to tear through the clouds and descend upon this place!
"What...what is this feeling?!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a chill run from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head, and the hairs on her entire body stood on end!
"Senior!" Mashu's face turned deathly pale, her hand gripping the shield trembled slightly, and the light on the shield became extremely unstable. "This magic power... this aura... something's very wrong. It far surpasses any of our previous enemies!"
Before Mashu could finish speaking, all the surviving beings on the battlefield instinctively raised their heads and looked towards the source of that terrifying aura—the pitch-black night sky!
Thick, dark clouds churned and rolled as if boiling, and then a colossal, despair-inducing figure slowly emerged from behind the clouds!
It was a colossal serpent goddess whose beauty was beyond description, filled with blasphemous divine beauty!
Her face was beautiful yet eerie, her eyes were closed, but the sheer pressure emanating from her very existence was enough to make the earth tremble!
It was a monster that blended divinity and demonic nature, was both exquisitely beautiful and terrifying, and could plunge any living being into the deepest despair!
"Then, what is that..."
Overwhelmed by extreme fear, an Uruk soldier dropped his spear, the sharp sound of which rang out starkly in the deathly silence of the battlefield.
Leonidas I gritted his teeth, his muscles tensed, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead. He felt an unprecedented and terrifying pressure that threatened his very existence as a Heroic Spirit!
“There’s no mistake…this aura…this posture…” Mashu’s voice trembled with fear, but she still managed to utter that name with difficulty:
"—It's a Gorgon!!!"
The expressions on everyone's faces suddenly changed drastically.
"Gorgon, the Beast Mother Goddess of the Three Goddess Alliance..."
"She actually came to the battlefield herself?!"
Volume 1: Chapter 31 Tohsaka Yu, Joins the Battle!
The palace corridors were quiet at this moment. Yuan Eling looked around, his eyes filled with a thoughtful expression.
Because the Gorgon's 'children' have become much stronger during this time, most of the guards in the palace have now been dispatched outside the city to defend against attacks from monsters.
Considering that leaving Tiamat's place now would likely alert her, Yuu Tohsaka decided to go and tell her first... With this thought in mind, she turned and headed towards Tiamat's room.
Before long, he arrived at the door and gently knocked.
dong dong.
"Aaa?"
Tiamat's pleasant voice came from inside the house.
Yu Tohsaka pushed open the door and soon saw the creator goddess of Uruk inside.
When she saw the boy, she was taken aback at first, but then a happy smile quickly appeared on her face, and she instinctively wanted to hug him.
“Um… Tiamat,” Yu Tohsaka quickly helped her up, his face full of apology, “I’m sorry, I… I have to go out for a bit more.”
Tiamat's smile vanished instantly, and her ruby-like eyes immediately welled up with tears, filled with "Why?" and "Unhappy."
“Those bad guys outside are fighting too fiercely. I have to go help them, otherwise the people in the city will be in danger.” Tohsaka Yu tried to explain in simple and easy-to-understand language, while starting his “reassurance mode”.
Sure enough, Tiamat took out her notebook and wrote down with great effort:
"It's dangerous outside, I'll go with you!"
I knew it would turn out like this… Tohsaka Yu sighed inwardly, but a gentle and confident smile appeared on her face: “It’s okay, I’m just going to help out, I’ll be back soon, you can just wait for me here.”
Although still not very willing, after some persuasion from Tohsaka Yu, Yu finally nodded reluctantly.
She wrote forcefully in her notebook: "Come back soon."
"Yes! I promise!" Tohsaka Yu nodded vigorously, then patted Tiamat's head, gave her a big hug, and then turned and left the room.
Watching Yu Tohsaka's hurried departure, Tiamat stood at the doorway, then quickly looked towards the city gate outside.
She could vaguely sense that a rather powerful magical force was surging there.
Despite having great confidence in Tohsaka Yu, if the opponent is a 'god'... there is a possibility of getting injured.
Thinking of this, Tiamat quietly peeked out, looked down the corridor, and then silently slipped out of the room, following Yu Tohsaka cautiously from a distance.
……
Outside the city gate, all was silent.
The arrival of the Gorgons was like pouring a bucket of ice water over their heads, instantly extinguishing the faint flame of "hope" that the Uruk defenders had just ignited.
A terrifying pressure enveloped the entire battlefield as if it were a tangible force, and even the air seemed to freeze.
The monsters that had been roaring and charging at the city walls suddenly collapsed to the ground as if they had encountered their most fearsome natural enemy, trembling and emitting low, uneasy whimpers.
The situation is even worse for humans and heroic spirits.
Ordinary Uruk soldiers were already pale and weak-kneed under this oppressive force, making it difficult for them to even stand, let alone continue fighting. Their morale collapsed instantly, and all that remained in their eyes was the extreme fear of the serpent goddess who was as huge as a mountain range in the sky and exuded endless malice.
Even the battle-hardened heroes felt unprecedented pressure at this moment!
"Ugh... Damn it!" Leonidas I braced himself with his shield, gritting his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead.
He could feel his own spiritual foundation trembling slightly under the terrifying aura of the other party, as if it might collapse at any moment... This was a power that no ordinary god could possess!
Ushiwakamaru's figure also stopped. She stared solemnly at the Gorgon in the sky, the thin blade in her hand trembling slightly. It was her body instinctively issuing a warning—the enemy in front of her was an existence that she could not match at all!
"senior!"
Mash's voice was urgent. She still held the huge shield in front of her, trying to provide a final shelter for the remaining soldiers behind her. However, under Gorgon's terrifying pressure, which was as real as a physical entity, the city wall phantom created by her Noble Phantasm "Distant Ideal City" was already covered with spider web-like cracks, as if it would completely collapse at any moment.
