Chapter 5 Chaldea, Merlin and the Immortals of the East
At first glance, there are ruins and broken walls on the scorched earth.
There were two girls looking around blankly.
The girl with red hair and orange eyes wears a white shirt and a dark blue knee-length skirt, paired with black knee-high socks and boots. This is specially made by Chaldea for the last master of mankind. It is easy to move and practical at the same time.
The magic gift has sufficient protective properties, allowing the master to withstand more intense battles and operate in a variety of complex environments.
At the same time, it also adds a lot of solidification magic effects, which can give the Master a certain combat ability and support the followers in the battle... Although this does not have much meaning and is generally not used, it is fully covered by the effects of the Command Spell. In front of the red-haired girl, there is another girl with short pink hair, wearing purple armor, holding a huge shield, and she is guarding the former behind her back very vigilantly, and at the same time, she is looking at the surrounding environment very seriously.<
/p>
"The results are out...it was forcibly removed by the barrier just now."
At this time, a pleasant voice sounded, breaking the silence and silence in the air: "Uruk City seems to have set up a defensive barrier, presumably to defend against attacks."
The speaker cannot be seen, it is as if the air around them is vibrating and making sounds.
The shield-wielding girl was stunned for a moment, and then immediately came to her senses: "...In other words, we were ejected by the defensive barrier just now."
This is not the first time they have experienced spirit transfer. It is with this unimaginable technology that they go to various singular points to repair the distorted history in order to destroy the plan of someone who calls himself the Magic King to incinerate the human mind.
, until the seventh singular point is carried out, it is theoretically the last exploration of the Holy Grail.
However, their entry this time was somewhat unexpected, because when they came to the world in this time period, they appeared directly at an altitude of two hundred meters.
Then——
Falling downward.
If they hadn't reacted in time, the two of them would have died before they got out of the battle this time, and the cause of death would probably be very funny... After the successful hard landing, the two of them reconnected with Chaldea, and they also
They kept guessing each other and became a little suspicious.
Could it be that the mastermind behind the scenes saw that the triggering points he set in human history were eliminated one after another in order to carry out human incineration, and now only the last singular point of this era is left, so he finally became anxious.
Did you secretly attack them?
The transfer of souls seems to have been deliberately hindered, and this situation must be guarded against.
But now it seems that according to Chaldea's investigation, it seems that when they were just teleported, they successfully arrived at the originally set destination and appeared directly in the largest fortress city of this era.
They were bounced away by the defensive barrier, probably thinking they were intruders.
After understanding all this, the two people relaxed a little, and then began to carefully observe the current situation of this singularity.
The Chaldean side can only maintain stable contact at present, because the unique point this time is that in the early dynasty era of 2600 BC, the land of ancient Mesopotamia was formed in the Tigris and Euphrates river basins, providing many
A mother-like world influenced by civilization.
It is one of the truly oldest civilizations. It occurred almost at the same time as the earliest ancient Egypt. It can be said to be the beginning of human history.
From a magic point of view, this era is the end of the Age of Gods, the last fantasy century on earth where gods and monsters exist in daily life... The further back time goes, the more complicated the transference of souls becomes.
Difficulty, it can be said that just coming to this era is more difficult than all the singularities so far.
"Although we are also calculating coordinates here, the observation accuracy is very low. It should be said that the amount of information is too great!"
"As expected of a world before BC, the concentration of magic in the atmosphere is so high that the intelligence processing speed here cannot keep up."
Doctor Roman on the Chaldean side said so. In this case, we can only analyze the clues through the intelligence witnessed by the two people, and the two girls are also mentally prepared for this.
We are very serious about confirming the situation and initially collecting information about this era.
"The strip of light in the sky...sure enough, there is one here too."
The short-haired shield-wielding girl looked up at the sky and found that the band of light hovering in the sky still existed.
At first glance from the ground, it is very easy to mistake its outline for a huge celestial body close to the orbit of the planet, which leads to the suspicion that you are not on the earth, but on an alien planet.
However, she knew very well that through Chaldea's observation and confirmation, the true identity of this thing was a halo surrounding the earth, a belt of light announcing the end of humankind.
After a short conversation and discussion, the two began to move in the direction of Uruk. Originally, they had just arrived at their destination when they were transferred to this era, but when bullets flew here due to the defensive barrier, the journey became far away again.
, need to travel a long distance again.
There is nothing in this ruins, and it is completely meaningless to stay here.
As Masters and Servants who have crossed six singularities, they naturally know that they cannot just stand there and wait, doing nothing... Perhaps the human world that longs for self-rescue is on their side, and the restraint will be the greatest.
Help them as much as possible.
Chances, probabilities, and coincidences will all tend to be in their favor, but if nothing is done, then no matter how many opportunities there are, they are just empty talk.
Walking in the wilderness of the Age of Gods is naturally not an outing, and safety can be guaranteed.
The surface of the planet in this era is still full of mysteries, and they also anticipated the enemies they might encounter and prepared for it. However, in the successive contact battles that followed shortly after, they discovered that Chaldea had made preparations.
It doesn't seem to be useful.
——There are indeed enemies coming one after another.
——But it’s not the information they almost memorized. It’s not the fantasy species and magical beasts that existed in the Sumerian era.
It is not a dragon species, nor is it an orc. It is even completely different from the entire concept of fantasy species in their minds. It feels like a completely different ecosystem. It is not a creature that should exist in this world from the beginning. It seems to be unreasonable.
Distortion.
However, their numbers are very sparse. Although there have been several waves, they are still sparse in twos and threes. Although no other servants have been summoned, they can be defeated relatively easily by relying on Mashu's power.
"The forelimbs are like lion's paws, but the hind legs are like eagle talons..."
Crouching next to the bodies of the dead monsters, the girl with red hair and orange eyes carefully observed their features, but she became more and more confused, "And there is a unicorn on the head, but it is not the unicorn we have seen.
That kind of thing, it’s more like the whole body is covered with reptile scales and the horny body extends from the carapace..."
"The tail also has poisonous stingers, like a scorpion-like structure..." Mashu, who was also squatting down next to him, said, adding something that the Master did not explain.
"I have never seen such a thing..." curled her lips, and the red-haired girl said with a headache. This is just like a hodgepodge of stitch monsters. No wonder it gives people a feeling that should not have appeared in the first place.
Feeling, "What kind of monster is this..."
"That is Mushuhuxiu, one of the children born to Tiamat, the creation mother goddess of Mesopotamian mythology... Of course, it is not the true form in the myth, but a mass-produced model of Warcraft." One.
A slightly frivolous and smiling voice came from behind the two of them.
The sudden voice startled the two of them. They quickly turned around and assumed a defensive posture. Only then did they see two people, one large and one small, not far behind them.
The figure is a strange combination of a man and a little girl.
That man is a young man who is like the wind blowing on the grassland. He has a sassy smile on his face, but for some reason he gives off the feeling of a fraudster.
He has long white hair, but it looks unkempt and messy, and the colors of his clothes are too bright.
The slender figure next to her seemed to be a petite girl wearing a robe and a hood, hiding her appearance and figure. She was carrying a huge scythe that was taller than her whole body, forming a
A very contrasting and cute feeling.
"..."
"..."
"You, you are..." The red-haired girl frowned. Although she came close to this distance unknowingly, she did not seize the opportunity to attack herself and others. They should be friends rather than enemies, but they have not yet confirmed the identity of the other party.
It is better to be more cautious about your identity.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here to help you, I am..."
Still with that sassy smile on his face, the white-haired young man opened his mouth to explain, but at this moment, his expression suddenly solidified——
Because he saw the small white animal on the opposite side that had been following the two of them. It quickly ran up the tree next to it, showed its claws from the trunk, curled up, and in the next moment, it suddenly used its strength to move towards
Save it yourself!
In the vision of the white-haired young man, the white figure spinning at high speed quickly zoomed to the limit!
——Bang!
"Fufu?!" Mashu exclaimed.
The two girls watched helplessly as Fufu, who had always been cute and cute, used a high-speed roundhouse kick to hit the profile of the strange magician in robes with his hind legs. He was obviously just a small cat-like animal, but he suddenly exploded.
A totally unscientific force.
The white-haired young man was kicked out and even turned around for three and a half times. He landed face down with no splash and fell heavily to the ground.
"..."
"..."
Because the incident happened suddenly, no one reacted, and the scene was quiet.
The white-haired young man's companion, a slender and petite mysterious girl, just looked at her coldly, as if she didn't care about the life or death of her teammates.
"Damn it, you evil beast..." The white-haired young man got up from the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner. This little thing must be too vindictive. How long has it been since I threw it down from the confinement tower?
It’s time, why do you still attack yourself as soon as you meet?
…………
The farce is over and the atmosphere has become more relaxed.
After a short conversation, the two girls were somewhat shocked to discover that the white-haired young man’s true identity was actually Merlin——
It was the legend who was active in the legend of King Arthur, the magician among magicians, who actually appeared in this era.
I just don’t know why, but Dr. Roman from Chaldea seems to be very prejudiced against him. But no matter what, what he needs most at this time is help, so he muttered, "Even if he is a waste, he is still a top magician."
", Dr. Roman could only hold his nose and admit it.
"I was entrusted by the king and am looking for something. But since you are here, I can only stop by to pick you up... It happens that the thing I am looking for is not in that place, so I will go back to Uruk now.
." The magician said as he led the crowd forward.
"Does Merlin know we're coming?"
"Of course, I just showed up to help Chaldea, and don't think that I haven't done anything all this time. Isn't it too petty to exclude me now?" The white-haired magician revealed.
With a sassy smile, "But it's not just me, the astrologers in Uruk have also made predictions long ago, knowing that the Master who protects human nature will come..."
At this point, he paused: "And that king has also known about your arrival for a long time."
"That king..." The girl holding the shield hesitated slightly, "The king of this era is the tyrant Gilgamesh, right?"
"Yes, of course it's King Gilgamesh! Don't you think he is the one who uses the power of the Holy Grail to impose tyranny, destroy the world, and disrupt this era?" Merlin admitted readily, "Although I agree too.
, this king is considered outstanding among all kings by the standards of tyrants..."
"But in this singularity, the person holding the Holy Grail is not him. It is precisely because of the king's survival that Uruk can persist until now... As for who the current enemy is, the situation is a little complicated.
Okay, for the time being, you should work hard to defeat the "Three Goddess Alliance"."
"Three Goddesses Alliance?"
"That's right, the Goddess of Warcraft in the north, the Goddess of the Jungle in the south, and finally the Goddess of Tianxiang who has no base... The three goddesses have formed an alliance to exterminate humanity in this era." Merlin said, but also thoughtfully.
He said, "Although currently, the greatest threat is to the Goddess of Warcraft, the other two... I can't say."
The biggest problem with the Goddess of Warcraft is that it is directly related to the source of the collapse of this era. This is an undoubted fact. The warcraft that is constantly being produced are truly hateful creatures that are determined to exterminate all human beings. Based on their hatred of human beings,
Act out of hatred.
But the other two pillars of divinity...
According to Merlin's observation, although the Jungle Goddess ordered the forest to swallow up the city of Ur and Eridu and make the urban agglomeration in the south disappear, she did not actually harm those residents. And the bad-tempered Goddess Tianxiang seemed to
I would attack Uruk every once in a while, but many times I would bomb the group of monsters that were about to break through the defense line.
But no matter what, at least it can be confirmed that the Three Goddess Alliance is actually internally discordant and eccentric, and they do not really agree with each other. They want to do their best to eliminate human beings... This is ultimately a good thing.
"Is the goddess of Warcraft... related to the Warcraft we saw before?" The red-haired girl thought seriously, and then asked as if she wanted to confirm her guess.
"Of course... you can see the north wall from here. Come and take a look. These are the biggest pressures we need to face at the moment."
Merlin walked up to a high ground, looked into the distance, waved to everyone and said.
The mysterious girl named Anna seemed to have little interest, but the two girls from Chaldea walked up quickly out of curiosity. On that high slope, the mountains and forests in the distance were winding, but there happened to be an obvious place.
Through this gap, you can see the farther end.
"This, this is..."
"Is that a city wall?"
They were shocked to see as far away as their sight could reach, a solid city wall standing at the end of the earth, seemingly extending endlessly to both sides, and outside the city wall was a huge rift valley, as deep as
The moat perfectly matches the city wall to form an extremely steep and impregnable miraculous defense line.
However, outside the city wall, on the opposite side of the huge rift valley, there were monsters like ants swarming around, and the terrifying magic reaction gave them a thrilling feeling.
"With so many monsters, there are thousands of detectable reactions..."
"It's unbelievable that Uruk has been resisting this steady stream of attacks?"
According to Chaldea's calculations, the basic combat effectiveness of the strange monsters that he and others encountered was equivalent to that of a small automatic chariot, and the endless march of ants seemed to be so abnormal all the time.
How can the city wall alone stop the attack of a huge number of monsters?
Although the solid city wall seems to have no end and extends infinitely horizontally, it still cannot change its simplicity. It is just made of huge logs as the main body and built in the form of a fence.
"Actually, there are quite a few now. Three months ago, it was said that the monsters on this plain were densely packed. Almost every defense line on the north wall had to withstand huge pressure at all times. The monsters would not stop.
Attack, the fortress cities in the rear can only fight day and night."
Merlin spread his hands and said.
"Then how was the situation alleviated?" The shield-wielding girl frowned and asked, "For what reason did the number of Warcraft decrease?"
"It's just like what you saw..."
The magician had a sassy smile on his face, and he pointed at the huge rift in front of the Warcraft front——
"At that time, someone slashed here, annihilating almost all the beast tide, and also left this ravine on the north wall. Most of the monsters now have no way to directly attack the city wall, and must go around a long way, which greatly alleviates the problem.
The pressure on the defense..."
"...Cut, chop with a knife?"
After being stunned for a moment, the shield-wielding girl subconsciously looked at her master and found that the latter also seemed to have a look of astonishment on his face.
They could clearly see the huge rift in front of the city wall here. From a distance, it looked like a huge wound tearing the surface of the earth. The cliffs on both sides of the rift were unfathomable, long and narrow in shape, and ran from east to west.
Faintly and the Warcraft battle line formed two parallel lines, extending infinitely to both sides as if there was no end.
Of course, they thought it was a steep ravine at first, but now...
But I was told that it was actually chopped out with a knife?
"Yes, that one looks like he should be an immortal from the east, but I'm a little confused about things there, but for now, he should be an ally that can be won over..." Merlin said. p>
Chaldea also understood the magician's thoughts almost immediately. They are also very familiar with it and can even be said to be proficient in it. There will be many servants summoned by the Holy Grail at each singularity, among which
There are also many heroes, sages and saints who want to help them based on their own will.

Perhaps this time is the same. They need to win over such powerful allies to gain more weight for the cause of laying the foundation for human science.
…………
……
At the same time.
In an extremely steep and majestic mountain shrouded in clouds and mist.
Near the top of the peak, there stands a weird temple. Overall, it is quite solemn and sacred, but the tacky Lucky Cat statues placed on both sides of the temple gate really look a bit subtle...
"Okay! Safe landing!"
A black dot appeared from the horizon. In just the blink of an eye, it flashed and teleported to the door of the temple. A huge bow-like flying boat hovered steadily in the sky. The gorgeously elegant and bold goddess was extremely happy.
Jumped down from above, raised his arms and cheered.
Then she seemed to remember something again, and looked back at the few ordinary humans wearing simple clothes behind her. They were the residents of Uruk who she had found outside and brought back.
These poor people looked blank, their eyes were frightened, and they looked around subconsciously...
Although they still looked very uneasy, at least with the goddess's previous assurance, they finally had hope deep in their hearts...
"Very good, come with me now. This is definitely a good thing for you..."
The goddess waved carelessly, signaling the group of humans to follow her. She went to great lengths to bring them all the way back, not just for fun.
…………
"The capacity of Taoyuan Township is almost full..."
Standing in front of the box garden, which was as square as a bonsai, looking down at the three-dimensional beautiful landscape, as well as the villages, roads, fields, and people who were busy like ants, Gu Mo couldn't help but smile.
Sighed lightly.
He is seriously struggling to see where he can optimize it so that more residents can live in this bonsai cave.
"Speaking of which, that human trafficker Ishtar is really full of motivation. I thought the number of survivors living outside would be very few, but I didn't expect that she would do this for the sake of gems..."
"Wait a minute, did she go to Uruk specifically to kidnap people?"
