Arturia's "king's stomach" has always been ridiculed by many people, but she has never taken it personally.
"You can't fight without filling your stomach."
This is what Arturia often says before eating.
Most heroic spirits do not need to eat. They eat more just to enjoy delicious food and experience normal human life again.
Both Arturia and Lu Xiao are still living people. Lu Xiao, who has realized that the soul has become material, actually no longer needs to eat to replenish energy, but he still retains this habit in order to remember that he is still a normal human being.
Arturia's aura at the dinner table was astonishing. She ate at least five times more than a normal person. Her seemingly elegant movements never stopped from beginning to end, and her mouth was always stuffed with food.
Ignoring Artoria who was sweeping the table for the time being, Lu Xiao also put the freshly roasted leg of lamb into his mouth.
"oh?"
The roasted leg of lamb in Uruk is very tender and juicy. You can taste the delicious meat flavor as soon as you bite into it. The fluffy bread is also softer than Lu Xiao expected.
'Is this bread leavened? Is it the advanced knowledge that Gilgamesh bestowed upon the people of Uruk?'
The Uruk city-state relied on wheat, sheep and soil as the foundation for its development. Wheat was used to make staple food, mutton supplemented daily nutrition, wool was used to weave clothing, and soil was used to make "documents."
The Sumerian civilization of this era had not yet acquired papermaking technology, and the books in Uruk were all made of dried soil.
Although the clouds of the final battle shrouded the entire Uruk, the people here still maintained an optimistic attitude before the war began.
Gilgamesh had explained everything to them half a year ago. No matter how hard they struggled, Uruk would eventually be destroyed.
Under the impact of the Earth Mother Goddess Tiamat, this is a fact that no one can change.
Just after the meal, the priests sent by Gilgamesh to inform the people conveyed the king's final order.
Including the soldiers who were preparing to go out for battle, all the surviving people in the Uruk city-state gathered in the square in front of the sacrificial site.
Accompanied by Siduri, Gilgamesh stood tall on the steps in front of the tower to deliver the final mobilization before the war.
"When the proud people of Uruk evacuated Babylon and started building the Warcraft Front, I told you that Uruk will be destroyed. This is a future that I cannot change."
"You can run away, or you can indulge in pleasure in your last life, or even abandon yourself and escape into the underworld. The last six months of your life are completely up to you."
"But you still chose to fight even though you knew the outcome. You are indeed the people that the king is proud of."
Gilgamesh's calm tone gradually became passionate: "I will say it again! Uruk will inevitably be destroyed, but our efforts will never be in vain!"
"As long as there is one person alive in the world, the light of humanity in Uruk's struggle in despair will forever be recorded in his eyes and engraved in his memory!"
"Even if our country perishes and leaves no descendants, our will will be passed on to future generations through the records of witnesses!"
"The foundation of human history is not the blood source, but the knowledge and wisdom of the same human beings!"
"Even if Uruk is destroyed, the civilization of Sumer will continue to be passed down, and we will become the dawn light that illuminates the next generation of civilization!"
Encouraged by the king's speech, the people of Uruk raised their heads high and looked at the heroic Gilgamesh in front of the temple with bright eyes.
"My proud people! From this moment on, we will try our best to deny Tiamat, the God of Creation, and in this battle, we will start a new era of complete separation between humans and gods!"
"Dedicate your lives and your souls to this king! Those who survive will convey the glory and glory of Uruk to future generations!"
Inspired by Gilgamesh, the people of Uruk raised their arms in unison and shouted: "Oh!!"
Lu Xiao took the last bite of mutton and said inarticulately to Artoria, whose eyes flickered: "Amazing leadership. Although he was recorded as a tyrant by historians because of his ridiculous experiences in his youth, Gilgamesh is undoubtedly a tyrant.
A powerful king."
"What about you? King of Knights, what do you think when you see this scene?"
"Hmph~"
With a slight snort, Arturia clenched the Contracted Victory Sword in her hand, and a smile appeared on her lips: "This is not my king's country, so let the King of Heroes perform to his heart's content."
"But I will not admit that the people under my rule are not as good as Uruk. The people of Camelot also have their own glory. One day, I will proudly show my way as a knight king to all kings!"
"Ha~ That's good."
Turning his head to look at Fujimaru and others not far away who were also fighting with the same spirit, Lu Xiao glanced at a cloaked man hidden at the end of the crowd. Lu Xiao lowered his head and chuckled: "Morale can be used, and the final battle will start from there."
Let’s get started.”
…
"Boom!"
As countless people watched and waited nervously, the surging black mud of the Sea of Life finally reached the border of Uruk and slammed heavily on the defense line built by the Fang of Nabistin.
"Crunch~"
Like the power of nature, the impact of the black mud was huge. The Fang of Nabistin was damaged everywhere, but at least it was able to block the first wave of impact from the black mud. The Uruk behind the defense line was temporarily unharmed.
"Set off!"
Under the command of Quetzalcoatl, the two Aeolus pterosaurs took off at the same time. Except for Gilgamesh who was sitting at the sacrificial site, all the remaining combat power of Uruk joined in the final battle.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
The divine authority seal on the city wall was the first to show its power, filled with the magic power of Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, and the divine authority seal was quite powerful.
The power equivalent to the bombardment of the Noble Phantasm exploded into pieces, lighting up the sky in front of the Fang of Nabistin, and the dense firepower covered it and shot down the mass-produced Lakhmu in pieces.
But the number of Rakhmu is too terrifying. The number of Rakhmu bred in the Sea of Life has not diminished at all. As long as someone is swallowed into the black mud, the number of Rakhmu will increase again.
"Hahahaha! Stupid humans, you can't even think of rejecting your mother's 'love'!"
A dark-skinned figure with an angry face moved in the air on Rahmu's back, jumping so fast that even Lu Xiao, who was temporarily standing on the city wall to act as a fort, could only barely catch the shadow of this person.
Seeing the man's appearance clearly, Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Black pepper beef balls?"
Beefball is the nickname given by FGO players to the heroic spirit Ushiwakamaru. The Ushiwakamaru in front of her is very different from her normal state. She has a manic smile on her face. She has been completely reduced to a tiffin by being soaked in black mud.
The "children" of Yamat are enemies of mankind.
"Ushiwakamaru..."
Seeing Ushiwakamaru's current appearance, and recalling the agreement he had made with Ushiwakamaru, Fujimaru Ritsuka gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
Forcibly suppressing the emotions in his heart, Fujimaru Ritsuka ordered in a low tone: "Eliminate the threat from the enemy servants and act according to the plan!"
Mashu also couldn't bear what happened to Ushiwakamaru, but there was no time for her to lament for Ushiwakamaru right now.
"……yes."
Fujimaru's mood was not as calm as he showed. He bit his lower lip in self-blame, "I'm sorry, Ushiwakamaru. For the sake of the restoration of humanity and the continuation of human history, please forgive me."
