Kamen Rider Zi-O, Dimensional Descent

Anna was so surprised that she stood still.

She blinked, and it took her a while to come to her senses and look at the departing figure.

Although she hadn't known him for very long and certainly didn't know him very well, he probably wasn't the type to brag or joke around.

Moreover, what just happened seemed to truly reverse time, as if it had reversed the course of Ushiwakamaru's injuries...

If that's really the case.

"Then he might actually... be able to defeat Gorgon."

Thinking about this, Anna's emotions began to become increasingly complicated.

She knew why she came to this era, she knew what she was meant to do, it was her destiny... but if she left everything to this man, she could easily escape it all.

It would solve both the Gorgon problem and allow him to easily escape his fate—a win-win situation!

but…

Is this really... really something I can do myself?

For a long time, the girl stood there, stunned, unable to figure out the answer.

————————————————————

So the night passed quickly.

After a night's rest, everyone had replenished their energy from the day and were better able to protect the city of Uruk.

however--

"What...what's going on?!"

The report came from the soldiers on the Uruk front.

From the morning onwards... countless hordes of monsters began their frenzied attack on Uruk.

Even more astonishingly, its numbers have far exceeded all previous scales…

Boom—!!

Not long after, the city gate was breached.

When this happened, Yan Ming and the others had only just become aware of the anomaly.

"Roar--!!!"

Monsters rampaged through the streets, roaring and attacking countless innocent civilians.

Just then.

An overwhelming distortion of spacetime instantly enveloped them all.

Buzz—! All the magical beasts were frozen in place.

The next instant, the dark light of the Milky Way shot out in the form of light bullets.

Bang——! !

The immense force sent all the visible monsters flying in one breath, causing them to explode in mid-air.

"The situation looks very bad, my Demon King."

The people who appeared here were Woz and Yan Ming.

There were still some monsters left behind, but Geiz and Mash had already gone over there to eliminate them.

"Moreover, judging from their aura alone, the strength of these magical beasts is far beyond what we could see before."

"I can tell."

With a leap, Yan Ming arrived on the second floor of a small house and looked into the distance.

He noticed that even though one wave of the monsters had already been wiped out, they were still rushing toward them at high speed.

"It was Gorgon who did it. That guy's power has increased, which has also caused the power to breed magical beasts to increase."

"If this continues, it will never end. We must eradicate the root cause completely."

After exchanging a glance, Woz raised his hand and escorted Yan Ming back to his residence.

"I will be in charge of the magical beasts in the Uruk area. I will leave the Gorgon matters to you."

When Yan Ming returned to the vicinity of his residence, he saw that all the main people were fighting hard.

"drink--!!"

*Thud!* The blade flashed by.

Ushiwakamaru used overwhelming power to cleave through the bodies of countless monsters, while Benkei assisted her from the side. The two of them almost completely wiped out the monsters on the east side.

"Mash! Wipe out all the last monsters in the west!"

"Understood, senior!"

The western direction was dealt with by Mash and Anna together. There weren't many monsters, and with their combined efforts, the situation was quickly resolved.

The situation is even clearer in the south.

The strongest warrior, clad in orange and black, stood there, his power alone enough to overwhelm everything.

"Saw it down like crazy!"

Boom!! The orange light blade shot out at high speed in a serrated pattern.

It flies slowly on the ground, and as it shoots out at extreme speed, it instantly shatters the sound barrier.

Before the monsters could even realize what was happening, they looked down and were already decapitated.

*Pfft!* Countless streams of black blood sprayed into the sky. Through the coordinated battle of multiple forces, all the monsters that had invaded Uruk were completely wiped out.

That leaves only one last question.

"It really is Gorgon."

Everyone gathered inside the hall, and Gilgamesh nodded as expected.

"We have to get rid of that guy. The solution should be pretty clear by now."

So everyone looked at one person—Gates.

"Uh...you really intend for me to do it?"

"It's a small matter for you, the weight of a city is nothing, right?"

"Oh! As expected of Lord Gates! To consider a city a trivial matter is truly amazing! I'm sure this kind of thing won't be difficult for you either!"

"Stop flattering me! This is disgusting!"

Watching Merlin's actions, Gates instinctively thought of Woz, and immediately shouted in utter speechlessness.

"Alright, just take us to where that axe guy is. Let's get this boring over with."

Yan Ming pressed the Decade control dial, and an aurora curtain appeared in front of everyone.

Then, Gates, Mashu, and Fujimaru Ritsuka all entered.

“King Gilgamesh, Benkei and I will go together to support Mr. Leonidas I and Mr. Woz.”

"Okay, then the rest of you..."

Merlin glanced at Yan Ming and Anna, and couldn't help but smile.

"So, Anna, are you ready to go?"

Anna paused after hearing Merlin's question.

Then... she looked at Yan Ming.

The other person's expression remained completely unmoved, as if they wouldn't worry even if the sky were to fall.

"...I want to go too."

So Yan Ming pressed the button again, unfolding a brand new aurora curtain.

They were sent to the location of Gorgon, as King Gilgamesh had described.

Volume 8, Mesopotamia Absolute Monster Front: Chapter 344 Witch? Monster.

This is a very dark cave.

Looking out, it seemed as if there was no bottom; endless darkness enveloped everything before us.

As the leader, Yan Ming walked directly at the front.

"The scent of Gorgon is in here."

Following behind him were Merlin and Anna.

Wherever the three of them went, the air was filled with an abundance of magical energy. Although the air in the Age of Gods itself contained a lot of magical energy, the amount here was much more concentrated than outside.

"Moreover, besides her, I can also sense an extremely strong... aura that I have never seen before."

Merlin, with his all-seeing eyes that could see everything in the world, could also see a terrifying scene.

Deep within this cave, something monstrous lies hidden.

However, the truth remains unclear. Merlin cannot see through the other's existence with his eyes; at most, he can only sense that it is indeed present here…

"If we want to continue, it would be best to inform Gates first and have him destroy the Blood Temple. This would provide us with more comprehensive protection."

“I’ve already told him that he should take action as soon as he arrives. Since there’s been no movement yet, it means he’s not ready.”

At this moment, Yan Ming thought of someone near Eridu—Quezal Koyatl.

Although the South African Quetzalcoatl had fought with Yan Ming and they had communicated and become friends, what if she were to fight Gates and Fujimaru Ritsuka as well…

…No. At this moment, Yan Ming recalled what the feathered serpent god had said to him before.

Quetzal clearly knew about Chaldea, and she was also well aware of Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.

Since she never came with the intention of destroying humanity, she certainly wouldn't stop them from taking Eridu's axe.

But ultimately, can destroying the Blood Temple with a so-called god-level axe really reduce Gorgon's combat power?

Ultimately, the thing that gave her power and enhancement didn't exist in this world.

After these thoughts flashed through his mind—

Looking to his side, Yan Ming noticed something.

That means something's wrong with Anna.

"What's wrong."

He suddenly stopped, and Merlin looked at him with some confusion, but after noticing Anna, he immediately understood.

"I see... Anna, you're afraid of the Gorgon, aren't you?"

"Fear?"

She probably didn't even realize it herself.

Before she knew it, her back was soaked with sweat. The further she walked, the more anxious and fearful she felt.

Was this due to fear of Gorgon's immense power? Of course not.

The reason she was afraid was simply because of her identity.

"The encounter between the young Medusa and the Medusa who was then a monster was indeed something that could cause fear to both of them."

Merlin said thoughtfully.

“I think that besides you being afraid, Anna, that Gorgon will probably feel the same way when he sees you.”

The girl remained silent, unsure of what to say.

However… I suddenly felt something in my hand.

Turning around, he saw the young man, who had remained remarkably calm, grasp his hand.

"Let's go."

I felt a touch in my palm... a very warm feeling.

"Didn't I tell you? Leave Gorgon to me, I'll defeat her."

It was just a simple sentence from the other party, yet it was full of confidence.
