He was imprisoned in Nibelungen for a thousand years, only to find out upon his release that he was

At this moment, she fully demonstrated the role of the team's divine will disseminator, persisting in her unconventional, charlatan-like practices for a hundred years without wavering.

And as it turns out, Skadi and her ilk's "sober-minded" analysis was ineffective.

Francesca's empty slogans are more useful.

"Yes, that makes sense!"

Lu Ming slapped his thigh and stood up abruptly.

Francesca, truly a pillar of his court! His An Lushan! His Li Si! His Akechi Mitsuhide! His Horus!

His eyes regained their light. Having been "encouraged" and shedding his negative emotions, his will was now as firm as iron, and he radiated a renewed high spirit and a do-or-die mentality.

"Odin thinks that by surrounding us with these walls, we will be doomed? Humph, you are sorely mistaken!"

"Adversity can actually inspire people's precious teamwork spirit! The more difficult the situation, the more united we become!"

At this moment, Lu Ming recalled countless cases from his past where people, trapped in dire straits, were inspired to unite and overcome adversity.

He thought of the 16 passengers who survived 72 days of being trapped in the Andes Mountains plane crash without supplies due to the low temperatures; he thought of the countless civilians who volunteered to sail through the flames of war to rescue surrounded soldiers during the Dunkirk evacuation; and he thought of the unforgettable experiences of everyone working together to overcome difficulties in the face of natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods.

Right now, Odin is trying to imprison and oppress them with a more powerful and desperate cage, and to create more terrifying dead ends and predicaments to threaten them, but these are nothing but paper tigers that are all show and no substance!

With their unity, all obstacles will crumble and crumble! All evil will ultimately be brought to justice!

Ishtar: "......"

They held on with great difficulty.

Unity? Cooperation? Where exactly is the unity in this team? The person in charge is certainly extraordinary.

If we want to unite, wouldn't we have to kick her and Skadi out first?

"so--"

Lu Ming took a deep breath, his gaze swept over everyone, and he made a series of arrangements in a firm and powerful tone.

"I've made up my mind! I'll mobilize everyone, unite all forces that can be united, and give it my all to completely thwart Odin's conspiracy!"

"Therefore, we need to move all the remaining weapons and equipment out of the warehouse to be used as an ammunition depot for the attack and as personal equipment for the police force."

"We need to use up all the other precious materials we have in reserve to replenish our weapons and ammunition, or to enhance our own equipment."

"We must also try to contact the outside world or other directions. If they are also in dire straits at this moment, we should also persuade them not to give up hope!"

"They should take up arms and continue the fight just like us, with all sides working together to clear the path until the moment when everyone victoriously reunites!"

Halluri was the first to clap and cheer.

Francesca, of course, joined in the commotion with a smile.

Seeing that the atmosphere was right, everyone else joined in and clapped. Skadi's expression was the only one that seemed a little awkward.

"but--"

Lu Ming changed the subject, "The situation regarding those city walls is unclear."

"Ordinary traps are fine, but if we go in and get lost or teleported to different locations and get separated, that would be troublesome."

"Therefore, we need someone who is most familiar with the situation to lead the way."

The next second, everyone's eyes turned in the same direction.

Skadi.

After all, the person most familiar with those city wall runes here... isn't she the one with the exceptional rune skills who just gave a fierce analysis?

Skadi: "......"

They held on with great difficulty.

Originally, I wanted to avoid standing out, but now I'm being forced to.

Did the boomerang bounce back a little too fast?

Thinking about this, Skadi was completely numb.

As expected... I still couldn't escape my fate.

What's meant to come will come.

Is this... the work of fate? You're something else.

I think I understand Odin a little better now, when he faced Ragnarok.

Skadi's gaze toward Lu Ming changed once again.

The End Device... It's terrifying!

Volume 1: Chapter 74 I will broadcast this hopeful video to the entire city!

"The city walls are still expanding! The eastern district has apparently expanded to the outskirts of the city—ah, the line of sight has been blocked, the flow of telescopic magic and surveillance networks has been cut off!"

"The surveillance footage from the southern district has completely gone offline! The last chaotic audio and video footage shows that some residents who believed in the rules have started killing each other!"

"The number of communications that can be connected has plummeted to 7%! Commander Dioran, at this rate, we'll be completely isolated!"

The Kozman Special Orthodontic Center was in complete disarray.

The massive amount of surveillance footage occupying the entire wall turned into dozens of large black screens in a short period of time, while the remaining footage presented a nightmarish scene of the city wall dividing the land and the besieged killing each other.

Everywhere you looked, there were the complaints of the communications department operators, and the intelligence personnel were pacing around anxiously.

Armed personnel in suits and sunglasses, fully armed, vigilantly watched the mobile city walls outside, separated by several layers of struggling defensive barriers.

But when faced with a monster that far surpasses even magicians and whose heavy firepower might not be effective, they ultimately lacked confidence.

Even Fadius almost lost control of his facial expressions.

Because things have developed to this point, the Holy Grail War itself has completely fallen into chaos.

He had never felt so anxious and desperate before...

Previously, they had the backing of government departments, which made them adept at handling accidents. In addition, the Heroic Spirits of the Holy Grail Wars knew to abide by some rules, so most of them would not deliberately massacre ordinary people.

The ruthless Master also knew to act discreetly and not bring things to the forefront.

Even a ruthless killer like Bazdillo Cordierion knew to use gangster channels to cover his tracks.

But now, suddenly several 'Twenty-Seven Ancestors' have appeared!

These founders of the Dead Apostles don't follow the rules, and they can't possibly play by the rules of the Holy Grail War system.

After all, they are the poison that denies all reason and doesn't care about human society at all! They are veritable walking sources of pollution and mobile anomalies!

"That communication channel was specifically set up to directly connect with the higher-ups! And there's still no response?"

Fadius's lips trembled slightly, but he forced himself to remain calm and uttered the question.

“No,” Adela shook her head weakly as well, “Currently, all external communications in the entire Snowfield City have been cut off. Although our lines have been specially modified with magic, I’m afraid they are still…”

"Boom!"

Fadius slammed his fist on the table.

He tried to remain calm, reassuring himself that even if the higher-ups knew about the situation, they were probably powerless to do anything about it.

Just as Fadius was getting annoyed.

An operator shouted:

"Mr. Dioran, it's that communication channel! The one that transmitted information about the Abyss of Odin when we contacted the Lesser Grail!"

Almost instantly upon hearing this, Fadius reacted, turning to issue the order:

"Quickly! Connect me right now!"

The tone was urgent.

It was as if they had grasped at the last straw.

"Yes!"

[Sizzle sizzle...]

Accompanied by a surge of magical energy, like an electric current, the resounding announcement from the other side finally reached its destination through the Grail:

To all those who are struggling so hard! You may feel confused, lost, or even desperate, but that's okay. Please don't give up the struggle to survive!

At this moment, I have something to say; please listen carefully!

[Please also share this message of hope with all affected areas!]

Because all this should not have been the sin and suffering you endured, but because of the existence of some evil, you were forced to suffer and endure this torment. I understand you, because we are in the same situation. I must also tell you the truth...

That utterly evil and ruthless being is none other than Odin!

Fadius was stunned for a moment.

It felt as if I had been struck by something in an instant.

That feeling is back.

The feeling of being deeply shocked when I first read the information conveyed by "Odin's Abyss" has returned.

Could it be that the outrageous information about Odin joining forces with the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles, which was mentioned before, has actually come to pass at this very moment?

Were these ancestors really summoned by Odin? Was Jesta, the one who betrayed us earlier, the one who was originally in charge of making contact?

But why?

Fadius is not making baseless accusations; please stop spreading nonsense... But was Jesta's testimony back then truly reliable?

As he listened to the voice on the other end, his breathing trembled slightly, and his hands gripped the table so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

Fadius's thinking might stem from his pride as an intelligence officer, or it might be out of fear of the harsh reality—

After all, the idea of ​​a supreme god colluding with a monster that denies human reason is terrifying; one can't help but subconsciously deny it...

Ultimately, what evidence is there to prove...?

The biggest proof... *sizzle*... is that you can decipher the runes on the wall...

The signal became unstable, but Fadius keenly caught the word 'rune'.

When it comes to runic magic, the one most closely associated with Odin is none other than the primordial runes.

"Quickly, quickly, notify all the observers!"

The moment he gave the order, Adela understood immediately, "Yes! We'll immediately activate the monitoring spells that are still running to detect any possible traces of runes!"

Before long, an observer delivered a report, and the conclusion was unequivocal: the traces of the Primal Rune were far beyond what any modern magician could forge.

Fadius was shocked, and his last shred of hope vanished as the truth was revealed.

Odin has truly joined forces with the Ancestor of the Dead Apostles!

[Hehe... You may find this hard to understand, perhaps even extremely confusing, but I must emphasize again that Odin is not entirely the same as the figure portrayed in human mythology. Essentially, He is ruthless and unscrupulous...]

These... no... sizzling... Dead Apostles are undoubtedly the minions He has sought out. You will see ferocious wolves devouring flesh, you will see avian monsters plundering and sucking blood, and you may even see spider monsters spitting silk...

Upon hearing this, Fadius raised his head again and looked at Adela.

The latter understood and handed over a thick stack of surveillance footage, with many monsters meticulously photographed and archived.

Excluding Nero Chaos's various mixed and chaotic animal groups, including wolves, dogs, and bears, Blackwing's 'bird retinue' and Rojaan's 'spider retinue' are clearly included. They do match up after all.

Fadius focused his breath and continued to listen.

Please remember that Odin is a ruthless villain capable of killing even his own kind. All his actions and grand schemes are aimed at manipulating the fate of all living beings...

Fadius's eyes widened as he listened to the end.

Could the theory of the divine destiny device that he heard while studying at the Clock Tower be true?

Everything makes sense now!

Is Odin trying to emulate fate, using all living beings as pawns?

......

Nibelungen.

After reminding everyone of the dragon-blooded monsters that appeared in the original work, such as the Kamaitachi and the Dragon Spider, Lu Ming put down the microphone and sighed deeply.

A distant source of water cannot quench a nearby fire.
