Episode 237: As long as the spark of civilization can still be preserved, it is not considered true destruction!!

『 However, just at that mont, the water level suddenly began to rise. The seawater instantly surged to the height at which everyone was flying, and the situation beca extrely critical.

A massive figure slowly appeared before everyone’s eyes, and Tiamat’s true face was revealed along with it.

Compared to her previous appearance, her body size was now at least five tis larger and far more terrifying.

The giant horns atop Tiamat’s head tore through the entire surface of the water at this mont;

Her legs also regained their freedom.

At the sa ti, that pair of eyes filled with murderous intent slowly opened.

Accompanying her appearance, the black mud spreading continuously beneath her feet was rapidly eroding the surrounding seawater, a truly horrifying sight.

Witnessing such a terrifying scene, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the group instantly felt a strong wave of despair welling up in their hearts.

BANG—!

Fujimaru Ritsuka slamd a fist heavily onto his own thigh, then stared dumbfounded at the behemoth before him.

"That... Is this the true main body? How can it be so huge..."

The entire team fell into a deathly silence; no one could utter a single word. 』

[ Kiryu Sento (Kan Rider): "Is, is this the true opponent?" ]

[ Daigo Madoka (Ultraman): "Such a powerful existence, it’s too terrifying." ]

[ Tetsuo Shinjoh (Ultraman): "?? Daigo, how did you learn to talk like that, too?" ]

[ Daigo Madoka (Ultraman): "Oh, right." ]

[ Ryuga Banjou (Kan Rider): "We fought so hard before, and as a result, at this mont, we’re back to square one." ]

[ Ryuga Banjou (Kan Rider): "No, compared to the previous situation, this is even more difficult." ]

[ The Herta (Honkai: Star Rail): "A God... of this form, is far more terrifying than any enemy that has appeared before." ]

[ Fujimaru Ritsuka (Type-Moon): "Is this our true enemy this ti?" ]

[ .....]

『 After a brief and hurried discussion, the group finally decided to retreat to the city of Uruk first to prepare for battle and reorganize their military forces for the confrontation.

After all, given their current strength, wanting to defeat such a despairingly powerful enemy was as impossible as a fantasy;

It was as reckless as striking a rock with an egg.

Just as Quetzalcoatl had warned... even if all the precious Noble Phantasms in the sopotamia region were concentrated to attack Tiamat, it might not necessarily cause her any substantial damage.

This mont... was when true despair shrouded their hearts.

"Report the latest situation..."

Gilgash maintained his usual composed attitude as he sat upon the throne, but the soldiers beneath him had already ford a long queue, anxiously awaiting instructions.

"According to the scouts, the black mud has already begun to swallow the city of Lagash and is spreading rapidly towards Umma and Uruk!"

"That churning black mud, like black flas, will easily breach Umma’s sturdy defensive walls... That city definitely won’t be able to hold out for long!"

"According to the current speed prediction... There are roughly... only a few hours left before it reaches here!"

Voices filled with extre terror rang out one after another in the great hall, but at this mont... 』

[ Paimon (Genshin Impact): "The soldiers all look so scared." ]

[ March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): "This is quite normal, right? After all, they are facing such an enemy now." ]

[ March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): "If I ran into an enemy like this, I would definitely run as far away as possible." ]

[ Hiko (Honkai: Star Rail): "Little March, would you really do sothing like that?" ]

[ March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): "Hehehe." ]

[ Eriri Spencer Sawamura (Saekano): "Anyway, for us ordinary people, encountering this kind of situation, naturally we have to run as far as we can." ]

[ Utaha Kasumigaoka (Saekano): "Fortunately, our world is an ordinary world, otherwise we would have encountered these strange things too." ]

[ March 7th (Honkai: Star Rail): "We still have to believe in science." ]

[ Eriri Spencer Sawamura (Saekano): "Still have to believe in Ke-xue (Conan-science)." ]

[ Haibara Ai (Detective Conan): "..." ]

[ .....]

『 Gilgash was seen gently raising his hand, interrupting the soldiers’ speeches.

"Understood..." Gilgash remained as confident and composed as ever, as if he had finally waited for this mont, slowly standing up from the throne.

He straightened his lapels, his expression grave yet full of confidence, and spoke in a steady and powerful voice:

"Weigh anchor!"

In this situation that seed hopeless and was indeed without retreat, Gilgash still maintained a very calm and self-possessed attitude.

He knew that if he panicked first, Uruk would fall into an irreversible predicant and might even march towards destruction because of it.

So no matter what, he could not lose his composure at this ti.

Regardless of what challenges lay ahead, he had to remain calm to find the best counterasures.

It was precisely because of the existence of such a leader that Uruk was able to survive tenaciously through the long years, and even at the brink of this apocalypse, it was no exception—this city still retained a final trace of counterattack power, allowing people to see a glimr of light.

All the viewers, seeing this through the big screen, were deeply shaken by the aura radiating from Gilgash.

For a true king, he undoubtedly gave the people a great sense of comfort and confidence—although usually high and mighty, whenever facing a crisis, he could always lead Uruk successfully through danger.

rely relying on this ability was enough to prove that he was a great king worthy of trust and respect.

Gilgash’s victory in that battle of the three kings was by no ans accidental, but a result of his strength.

"Fang of Napishtim! Deploy!"

Following his command, the entire earth imdiately began to tremble violently.

Countless sharp, massive earthen walls rose instantly from the ground like blades, forming an impregnable defensive net that blocked the surging black mud flow.

When the soldiers witnessed this spectacular scene before them, the flas of fighting spirit ignited in everyone’s heart, and they let out deafening shouts.

As long as there was a way to resist the enemy’s attack, it ant there was hope to continue fighting!

Right now, all the warriors of Uruk were filled with incomparable conviction, ready to face the even more arduous battles to follow.

"Managed to hold it back..."

Gilgash turned his back to the crowd, walking towards the tower corridor step by step, exceptionally slowly and firmly.

Every step seed unusually heavy, as if preparing for the impending great war.

He gazed at the situation beneath Uruk, his heart filled with deep worry for this land.

"So... have we finally reached this difficult step..."

Gilgash stopped his footsteps, standing outside the tower corridor.

His eyes were very firm, looking towards the direction where Tiamat was constantly approaching, as if he could pierce through ti and space.

As his vision gradually focused, his voice also beca more impassioned, seemingly preparing his entire body and mind for this arrival.

"For this past half-year... This King has been swallowing insults... silently guarding the safety of this city and its people."

"Mother of Demonic Beasts, Tiamat! Just how terrifying is that power of yours that devours everything?!"

"The events about to happen next... a mythological war that perhaps even I, the King of Heroes, have never encountered, is about to unfold..."

Gilgash paused slightly, raised his hand high, and pointed towards the location of that figure that struck fear into countless hearts.

"Is it you who will continue to ruthlessly devour the entire world... or will I prove to humanity that humanity possesses the power sufficient to pioneer a new world..."

"IT IS TI... TO GIVE A CLEAR AND DEFINITE ANSWER TO ALL DOUBTS!!"

"LET US... BEGIN THIS FINAL EPIC BATTLE SYMBOLIZING THE END OF THE AGE OF GODS!!"

Just as his voice fell, Gilgash saw several figures flying quickly in the sky; it turned out to be Fujimaru Ritsuka and the group riding on pterosaurs, rushing back urgently into the temple.

"KING GILGASH!!" Fujimaru Ritsuka called out loudly and impatiently as soon as he landed. Although he was still gasping for breath, judging by his expression, it seed he had extrely important news he was eager to report to everyone.

However, after a mont, the young man was still unable to speak smoothly, seeming sowhat hesitant.

"Returned at just the right ti..." Gilgash was already well aware of everything happening before him. Through his previous ntal connection with the boy, he knew many details of the events, so at this mont, he appeared particularly calm and composed.

"Since that is the case, then... the important eting regarding how to et and overco this ultimate test... officially begins!"

After a brief rest, the two goddesses Ishtar and Quetzalcoatl, as well as the brave Jaguar Warrior, plus Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, all gathered together, discussing counterasures within the temple, shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.

But... the subsequent information took them by surprise.

"There are only five hundred people left? How can this be... This is truly unbelievable!"

The group received this bad news as soon as they returned to Uruk.

After experiencing the invasion of the black mud and two attacks by the Lahmu, the Uruk dynasty they had once been so proud of... could no longer be maintained. All of this seed so inconceivable. 』

[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "No, no way?" ]

[ Umaru Doma (Himouto): "Here, there are actually only this many people left?" ]

[ Oyama Mahiro (Onimai): "After this crisis, only a few people remain?" ]

[ Kiryu Sento (Kan Rider): "With just these few people, the Surian civilization at that ti was pretty much equivalent to being extinct." ]

[ Keqing (Genshin Impact): "Um, does that Surian civilization you ntioned have any connection to this Uruk?" ]

[ Tokiwa Sougo (Kan Rider): "This is one of the earliest civilizations of humanity, destroyed by an accident." ]

[ Shinomiya Kaguya (Love Is War): "In history, Uruk, or rather the Surian civilization, was indeed destroyed because of an accident." ]

[ Shinomiya Kaguya (Love Is War): "So, in another world, was this civilization ultimately destroyed because of this crisis?" ]

[ Keqing (Genshin Impact): "I see..." ]

[ Paimon (Genshin Impact): "So scary." ]

[ .....]

『 Regarding this, looking at Gilgash before them, who remained calm and composed, seemingly not greatly affected, everyone present revealed a very chilled expression...

In their gazes, there was confusion, unwillingness, and even deeper worry for the future.

"Clearly... clearly not long ago this was still a place thriving and full of hope... why has it beco like this now?" Mash said, her voice carrying obvious fatigue and a sense of powerlessness.

Her words made the hearts of the few people present even more sorrowful to the extre.

If... if the final result was really like this, and Uruk was bound to march towards its end, then...

What was the aning of the so-called efforts and counterattacks? Was all the hard work paid along this journey all turned into bubbles? It wasn’t just the imdiate predicant that was distressing, but doubts about the existential value of all humanity and human history began to slowly breed.

Could it be that all our struggles were actually unnecessary?

If the fate of humanity was truly so pessimistic—assuming that the Human Order would inevitably be destroyed in the end, then...

Seeing the light of complex emotions flickering in the eyes of the heroes, Gilgash roughly guessed the fluctuations in their hearts at this mont.

"If you feel disheartened because of such news, I can completely understand that mood..." When he said this, his tone carried a rare gentleness and tolerance.

After all, when a person is told that all the results achieved along the way are erased, and even every bit of effort in the process has lost its original value, it would be difficult for anyone to remain calm.

However, even so, did it an that everything before was in vain?

NO!!

"Even if we win the final battle of this mythological war, we cannot save the dying Uruk," Gilgash said heavily, without a trace of lightness in his eyes.

His gaze imdiately shifted to Fujimaru Ritsuka, a look mixed with inquiry and curiosity.

"Well... Fujimaru Ritsuka." Gilgash’s voice was steady but carried so probing, "Knowing this, what do you think of Uruk at this mont?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka’s body trembled slightly because of these words, and even the words he spoke were filled with uncontrollable tremors: "Uruk... is it...?"

A fierce ideological struggle seed to be taking place in his heart.

Then, as if having to yield to so irresistible force, Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head helplessly.

"Did we ultimately... still fail to protect this era...?" This question was more like talking to himself, revealing deep powerlessness and regret.

Surprisingly, regarding such a desperate situation, Gilgash behaved quite calmly and waved his hand indifferently.

"No need to worry." His words sounded calm but firm.

"Even if we are destroyed, as long as the spark of the Surian civilization can be preserved, I believe that before long, successors will definitely appear." Gilgash’s words revealed a trace of optimistic expectation for the future, as if this was not an end but the beginning of a new life. 』

[ Keqing (Genshin Impact): "Well said. As long as the spark of civilization remains, the civilization is not considered completely destroyed." ]

[ Aventurine (Honkai: Star Rail): "As long as there is a spark of civilization, it is not true destruction?" ]

[ Aventurine (Honkai: Star Rail): "That’s nice." ]

[ Topaz (Honkai: Star Rail): "?" ]

[ Aventurine (Honkai: Star Rail): "Nothing, just sighing a little." ]

[ Vegeta (Dragon Ball): "Civilization’s spark, huh." ]

[ .....]

『 "Surian... culture..." Fujimaru Ritsuka’s heartstrings were touched by these words, and he stood there stunned for a mont.

But soon, like a drowning person finding a life-saving straw, a light suddenly flashed in his eyes, filled with the feeling of regaining hope.

But Mash, standing aside, seed not to have understood Gilgash’s aning and frowned slightly. Ishtar also noticed this.

"In other words... Mash..."

Ishtar sighed softly and continued to explain, "What that guy ans is... as long as Uruk, which symbolizes Surian culture, and that Goldie sitting on the throne can survive, then the entire sopotamian culture will be passed down forever."

"That’s roughly what it ans." She added a final sentence.

Hearing this, Gilgash huffed lightly, a clearly dissatisfied expression on his face, evidently unhappy with what Ishtar had just said. But in fact...

It was just a superficial phenonon. At this mont, a fire of passion that could not be extinguished ignited in Gilgash’s heart.

"In other words, if we want to protect human history from infringent, then we must stop Tiamat from attacking Uruk and do our best to ensure its safety."

When this sentence was clearly spoken, Mash, who had been in a state of confusion, suddenly felt as if she had been enlightened.

The despair that had been hovering in her mind instantly shattered, and an unprecedented hope welled up in her heart.

"Senpai..."

At this mont, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash looked at each other. 』
