Chapter 541 30: Bright Moon (Part 2)
The Demon Hunter Girl beside him also tried to force a smile, but her overly heavy heart made such an action fail... Not long ago, she finally witnessed what hell is."Succeeded, I hope it will have some effect... How is it now, is the situation in Uruk really bad?" Gu Mo quickly asked, he could more or less guess what had happened, but ultimately, he lost perception of the outside situation during the breakthrough, so he still needed to confirm.
"To say it's bad, it's indeed quite bad. Those disgusting things rushed into the city-state, causing slaughter and destruction, killing many citizens and soldiers... Luckily, the Ishtar Goddess hurried back for support at the fastest speed, with others returning soon after."
The Fox Elf Girl blinked her eyes and sighed somewhat helplessly, as if she was a bit depressed as well.
"Otherwise, relying solely on us, we really couldn't handle it. But even so, that group still caused considerable destruction here... But according to Chaldea, Uruk is actually a relatively safe place, so Tamamo I don't know what to say..."
Because the Tiamat God awakened, appearing directly at the Persian Gulf.
Compared to other fortress cities, Uruk is relatively far from the Persian Gulf... and the furthest is still the North Wall, once the place with the heaviest pressure on the Demon Beast frontline, the place with the most terrible casualties. Now, because it is the furthest from the Persian Gulf, it has become the safest place.
"That king has ordered that those who wish to leave should seek refuge on the other side of the North Wall, and the rest of those who stay behind must prepare for a decisive battle to the death..."
Kikyo withdrew her gaze after carefully examining Gu Mo's body and spoke softly, "The situation completely changed after the Demon Beast Goddess was defeated. No more demon beasts surged from the northern forests; those that remained also fled. But from other directions, new monsters appeared..."
"Rahmu... the demon beasts created by Tiamat, they can be considered mass-produced versions of Enkidu. They are what the Mother Goddess wants to use to destroy the existing ecosystem and replace it with what is called the 'Neo-Humans'."
Gu Mo sighed and instinctively looked in a certain direction.
That was the direction of the Persian Gulf, more than seven hundred kilometers from Uruk here. His spiritual power was still insufficient to reach there directly, but by extending his natural perception, he could barely touch it, vaguely feeling the massive magical power reactions gathering there.
The seawater had already been stained black, and countless monsters were pouring out from beneath the black mud-like ocean, constantly climbing onto the land.
"Neo-Humans..."
Kikyo repeated the term, her brows furrowed even deeper.
"The people of Chaldea were ordered to investigate over at the Persian Gulf, and the Servants also set off with them..." the Fox Elf Girl interjected, "By the way, it seems that the Flower Magician has died. It is said that the moment Gorgon was defeated, Tiamat awakened, and he, who had been inside Tiamat's dream, was instantly crushed."
"Ah, so Merlin is already dead, that's truly a sad story..."
Gu Mo nodded indifferently, pinching his chin and quickly pondering.
Perhaps because of the great increase in intelligence, he felt his thinking speed had become extremely fast, and even some rather vague memories seemed to come back clearly. Apparently, in the original plot, Chaldea and others were indeed ordered to go to the Persian Gulf to investigate—
However, because High Priest Seduri was captured by the monster, they were reluctant to give up the rescue.
Ultimately, Gilgamesh did not force them and simply let them go to Eridu for the investigation... but in the end, they could not save the gentle High Priest, nor did they discover that the strange monster they encountered along the way was actually that High Priest transformed.
But now, they went directly to the Persian Gulf, presumably the plot has changed, and Seduri was not captured?
Of course, thinking about it, although facing Tiamat is meaningless, the useful combat power is far more than in the original plot. Even if attacked, Uruk's situation must be much better than originally, and that High Priest evading disaster is also normal.
It's just that Eridu over there...
That place is also very important, not sure if going over now can stop Rahmu from attacking Jin Gu and seizing the Holy Grail.
"Let's go to Eridu now!" said Gu Mo, having finished his rapid deliberation, raising his head earnestly, then he hesitated slightly and looked at the Demon Hunter Girl again.
"I'll go too," Hiri reacted quickly, earnestly saying.
Although it seemed she couldn't help much in combat, at least she could be ready for a strategic retreat at any time, provided she stayed with them.
"Alright then..."
Gu Mo nodded as well, it was meaningless for the Demon Hunter Girl to stay here. Instead, by following them, she could be safely protected, whether by himself, the Witch, or Miss Tamamo no Mae, all capable of shielding her, this was actually the safest way.
He raised his head thoughtfully, as if his gaze penetrated the buildings, seeing the bright moon in the night sky.
His Night Wanderer Divine Power had evolved, but it was still confined to the domain of the night and had not further extended to include the power of the moon. However, he did indeed feel he had gained something, always feeling he could do something... but how should he do it?
Imitate the concept of the moon...
Use Inner Imagery to corrode the real world to create an Innate Barrier...
If referenced from the Elves as natural perceptiveness, it seems possible to have Fantasy Manifestation abilities...
The Innate Barrier is an imitation of the Fantasy Manifestation ability of Elves, and in a certain sense, he himself can be regarded as Elf Species, moreover, the essence of Fantasy Manifestation is indeed to interfere with the 'probability' of numerous phenomena happening, forcibly making impossible phenomena occur—
This nature also very much aligns with his Power of Lies, greatly enhancing and complementing it with the Power of Authority, just as the Illusion Technique and Path of Transformation were strengthened.
In an instant, Gu Mo thought through many things, but in Hiri's eyes, he merely nodded towards her, then stood up from the edge of the table, his body abruptly resonating with particles and waves, moonlight enveloping all of them, making the surrounding buildings instantly blur and become transparent.
......
...
"Seduri, you now go to the North Wall side..."
In the brightly lit palace under the night sky, the exhausted Gilgamesh was issuing a new order to his High Priest, but his words stopped abruptly, then narrowed his eyes, looking towards the night sky outside the palace.
Not long ago, the dome broken by Ishtar had not been repaired at all, so he could clearly see a bright moon rising from within Uruk, as if attempting to escape the earth and sky, roaming the nine heavens beyond.
"Humph, it hasn't been wasted after all..." the young man on the throne snorted lightly.
And that bright moon had already risen, cutting through the sky, carrying a vast, majestic power as it surged toward the distance.
