Chapter 220 Uninvited Guests of Hades
Seven top servants arrived at the seventh singularity through the transfer of souls.
The lineup this time can be said to be quite luxurious: the Lion King, who descended from the Holy Round Table Realm Camelot, holding the holy spear in his hand, to Chaldea, is definitely a god-level existence.
The other Rameses II is also a top servant who is not inferior to the superior gods. If the other party holds the Holy Grail, he can even be comparable to the ordinary main gods.
Apart from these two, Scathach, the queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, has accomplished the great feat of killing gods as a human being. She is not inferior to the main god level existence. Although those who came to Chaldea are only servant clones, they also have
With power comparable to the gods.
As for Arthur, not to mention, the main body is comparable in size to the star system, even if it is only a Servant clone with one ten millionth of the power, it is definitely a god-level existence.
As soon as these four powerful servants arrived, they alarmed Quetzalcoatl and Gilgamesh in Uruk.
"Another strong man has arrived!" Gilgamesh looked up at the sky, and then ordered Siduri to go to the mansion where Ritsuka lived to have a look.
On the other side, Quetzalcoatl felt four powerful auras, and immediately wanted to challenge.
In Lixiang's mansion, as soon as Arthur and others arrived, Scathach seemed to feel something. He turned his beautiful eyes and smiled: "It seems that a powerful person has arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of Quetzalcoatl rushed in from outside the door.
"Ara, Ritsuka-chan is so uninteresting. She summoned a new follower without telling me!" Quetzal hung on Ritsuka's body and breathed blue into Ritsuka's ear.
With a black look on her face, Ritsuka took Quezar off her body and threw it aside angrily: "They just arrived, so I can't tell you."
"Forget it." Quetzal stood up straight and turned his eyes to Scathach and the others, focusing especially on Scathach.
"Well, you have a very fierce fighting spirit. It seems that you are also an amazing female warrior!" Quezal said with a smile, "Can you have a fight with me?"
"OK!"
Without any hesitation, Scathach accepted Quetzal's invitation to fight.
"Wait a minute..." Ritsuka interrupted the exchange between the two, "Now is not the time for you to fight..." Ritsuka briefly stated the information he had just learned, and then said, "...because
The situation is serious, so I need your strength. After this matter is resolved, it doesn’t matter how you want to fight, I won’t stop you!"
Quezal also knew the priorities, so he suppressed the desire to fight in his heart and said with a smile: "In this case, let's put aside our fight for now."
"Mr. Arthur, Artoria, I ask you to report the information found in Chaldea to King Gilgamesh." Ritsuka said to Arthur and the Lion King, "I am rushing to Kusa now.
I’m looking for the goddess of the underworld, and I don’t have time to report this to the wise king, so I can only leave it to you.”
Arthur smiled and said: "It's okay, just don't worry!" It was accepted as accepting this task.
Someone helped share the burden, and Ritsuka felt relieved, and then left Uruk with Mashu and Ishtar.
…
Not to mention how troubled Gilgamesh was after learning the information about Chaldea's investigation from Arthur and others.
But at this time, an uninvited guest came to the underground Hades.
The figure wrapped in a layer of faint glow slowly walked in the dark and cold underworld. The Garula spirit, who was supposed to be patrolling the underworld, turned a blind eye to the figure and allowed it to pass through the seven portals of the underworld and arrive at the underworld.
the deepest part.
At the bottom of the empty and desolate Hades, there were only two bare stone pillars standing, and there was no trace of what a temple should look like.
Further away, a huge stone throne stood in the wilderness, and a blond girl was sitting on the throne, using magic power to weave a gun cage containing her soul.
At this time, the blond girl seemed to feel something. She suddenly stopped knitting the gun cage in her hands and looked up at where the figure was standing.
But she didn't find anything.
"I always feel like someone is watching me, is it my imagination?" The blonde girl glanced around in confusion, and finally continued to weave the gun cage containing the soul with full of suspicion.
Not far from the throne, the figure stood quietly in front of the blond girl, but the girl was still unaware of it.
Seeing Ai Lei's actions, the figure couldn't help showing a hint of surprise: "You can sense my gaze, and you are worthy of being the mistress of Hades."
After just sighing for a moment, the figure looked away from Ailei and continued walking deeper into the underworld.
Originally, the level where Ai Lei was located was already the lowest level of Hades, and there were no roads to pass further down.
But this figure ignored this, passed through the earth that was lower than Hades, and came to a level deeper than Hades.
This is not a deeper place in the earth in the physical sense, but a deep place in space. If there is any noun to describe it, there is no more appropriate name than 'abyss'.
The figure stayed on the edge of the deep abyss, and looking up, one could see an endless sea.
"It's really a sweeping view. There is nothing here except the endless freshwater sea with no end in sight."
After glancing around for a while, the figure stepped forward into the abyss. As he gently fell, ripples appeared on the clear water.
He obviously didn't exert any force, and logically he should have sunk into the water, but this sea in the abyss was able to hold him up steadily above the water.
Walking slowly on the water, the man seemed not surprised by the result: "Sure enough, the fresh water in Apsu repels all life."
Looking down at the sea at his feet, the figure explored the nature of the sea with great interest.
The clear and transparent sea allows one to have an unobstructed view. Through the clear water, it seems that one can see the bottom of the sea. However, this sea is so weird that one cannot see the end of the seabed.
"If Tiamat, known as the 'Salt Water Goddess', is essentially the ocean where life is born, then Apsu, her consort, is the complete opposite of fresh water." The man murmured to himself.
"In the distant ancient times, for the ancient life forms born from the sea, the existence of fresh water was like poison. Therefore, after the death of the fresh water Apsu, an abyss was formed that was restricted to life."
"In Mesopotamian mythology, people believed that rivers originated from the gathering of springs, and the springs came from deep in the earth, so the abyss was also called the abyss of sweet water, which is similar to the salty water symbolized by Tiamat.
The sea corresponds.”
The nature of the abyss and the primordial sea of Tiamat show completely opposite extremes.
"And Hades, where the dead belong, is built on the abyss."
Therefore, the rules of Hades are just borrowing some of the characteristics of the Abyss.
Withdrawing his gaze, the figure stood on the fresh water and raised an arm: "Then, let's get started..."
As the words fell, the radiance of a miracle appeared here. The abyss that should have been in eternal darkness ushered in unprecedented light at this moment.
The calm fresh water was stirred up by layers of waves.
…
At this moment, Hades, located on the abyss, once again welcomed three uninvited guests.
With the help of Ishtar's power, Ritsuka and his three men forcibly opened the passage to Hades on the earth and arrived at the Hades world beneath Kusa.
After passing through the seven-layer portal, Ritsuka answered the seven questions of the portal and finally arrived at the deepest part of Hades, where Ereshkigal is located.
During this process, due to the curse of Hades, Ishtar's entire body was shrunk to the size of a hand, which made people feel inexplicably cute.
Especially when Ritsuka saw Ishtar like this, she couldn't help but 'care' for the goddess of Venus who had become smaller.
"Ahem - mortals! This is a restricted area for the living, why are you here?" Ereshkigal, who had disappeared, had to come out to interrupt Ritsuka's actions.
The huge phantom of the Garula spirit showed an extremely terrifying image: it was covered with a layer of gauze with a faint light, and the skeleton-like appearance was looming under the gauze. The dark and deep breath of death came from the Garula spirit.
On the phantom, it poured out wantonly.
However, everything with life will instinctively reject such a breath, and unknowingly, it will be influenced by the fear generated in the heart.
Unfortunately, Ritsuka and Mashu present were not ordinary people. Facing such a terrifying figure, they did not show any fear. Instead, they looked seriously at the phantom of the Garula spirit presented by Airei.
"Is this the mistress of Hades?" Li Xiang touched her chin and looked up and down at the image in front of her, "There is some difference between what she imagined!"
Mashu followed Ritsuka's words and said, "Yes, I originally thought that the mistress of Hades would be a god in human form."
"you……"
Ritsuka turned to look at Ishtar: "Is this what your sister is like?"
"How is that possible?" Ishtar said angrily, "We are twins, and Elle looks exactly like me. Don't be fooled by her appearance."
"Well..." Li Xiang nodded thoughtfully.
"That's enough!" Ailei, the manipulator of Garula's phantom, shouted angrily, "You dare to slight and ignore the mistress of Hades, you must accept punishment!"
As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen huge rocks flew up from the ground of Hades. The sharp ends pointed towards Li Xiang and others, and quickly stabbed the three of them in a shape that was completely inconsistent with the cumbersome shape.
"Master!" Mashu took a step forward and thrust the large cross shield in his hand into the ground, firmly protecting Ritsuka behind him.
"Boom..."
More than a dozen huge rocks hit the big shield, and were instantly shattered into pieces of rubble by the force of the rebound.
