Chapter Summaries

Lin Qiye discovered that No. 22 was slaughtering Wucheng residents to fuel wishes from the Holy Grail, and Gilgamesh’s worsening episode seemed connected to the city. No. 22 exposed Lin Qiye’s disguise, recognized him as the Dual God Agent, and the two began fighting over the Holy Grail and scepter.

• Monkey King punched Gilgamesh repeatedly, but Gilgamesh remained trapped in a delusion and vowed to kill anyone who harmed Uruk’s people.

Lin Qiye fled No. 22’s scepter while using summoned spirits to drain the Holy Grail’s wishes. Bifatu arrived, rejected both men’s offers to join forces, and revealed he had removed his divine mark himself.

• Lin Qiye escaped No. 22’s golden ripples with Night Flicker and led him on a chase across Wucheng.

Lin Qiye and No. 22 faced Bifatu, whose transplanted body parts included the heart and limbs of the slain Sun God Ra. After No. 22 drained their Mental Power and used the Holy Grail to turn Bifatu’s sword against his arm, a formless soul rose from the sand and began gathering Spiritual Energy into a colossal figure.

• Three stone statues beneath the Ancient Well recognized Ra’s heart in Bifatu and rose, intending to sacrifice him to seize the treasury and return to the divine realm.

• No. 22 recognized the woman as a god.

Lin Qiye realized the attackers were weakened Sumerian gods who had hidden in King's Treasury, and he tried to seize the Holy Grail before Lone Boat Elder could use it. Lone Boat Elder restored his divine power and captured Bifatu, leaving Bifatu at his mercy.

• Lin Qiye recognized the attackers as surviving Sumerian gods who had lost their Divine System Origin and entered King's Treasury to escape the mist.

Nanna sacrificed Bifatu to the Holy Grail and restored the divine power of Inanna and Gibir, but the ritual still needed more life force. As Gibir pursued Lin Qiye, Lin Qiye flicked the mysterious King's Star Coin into the sky in a desperate attempt to survive.

• No. 22 survived the fall and cursed the gods as he dragged himself away from the battlefield.
• Nanna extracted Bifatu’s heart and Sun God body parts, then added them to the Holy Grail.

• Nanna said the sacrifice remained insufficient, so Inanna went after the Uruk survivors while Gibir pursued Lin Qiye.
• Lin Qiye fled from Gibir and, seeing no other way to fight a chief god, flicked the King's Star Coin into the sky.

Lin Qiye discovered that the Star Coin could briefly manifest objects from his imagination while he fled Gibir, the Fire God. He summoned a Wooden Chopstick carrying Zhou Ping’s Sword Intent and used it to destroy Gibir’s Giant Flame Sword, leaving the Fire God confronting an unfamiliar Sword Law.

• Lin Qiye flicked the Star Coin, and it spun counterclockwise without any obvious effect as Gibir’s flames closed in.

After No. 22 devastated Wucheng, its surviving residents discovered that the Three Gods were slaughtering the people who had escaped and realized the gods had deceived them. Lin Qiye recognized the betrayal as Gilgamesh’s corpse began to awaken in the Holy Grail’s light.

• Tali and the other survivors emerged from their cellar and searched Wucheng for the men who had fought No. 22, but found no one.

• Tali and the other survivors recognized the three figures as the Three Gods and questioned why Gilgamesh’s trusted subordinates were killing them.
• Lin Qiye, hidden within the city wall, realized that the Three Gods had deceived Wucheng’s people by posing as Gilgamesh’s allies.
• The survivors recognized the corpse floating above the moonlit pool as Gilgamesh, and his eyes began to open as the Holy Grail’s light flowed over him.

The Sumerian gods used the Holy Grail and moonlight to control Gilgamesh’s corpse and prepare to seize the King’s Treasury. At the Psychiatric Hospital of the Gods, Monkey King freed the maddened Gilgamesh and challenged him to one last battle, while the Puppet Hero King began activating his King Decree outside.

• Lin Qiye used a gale to save the falling survivors, then released the King's Star Coin as it was pulled toward the Puppet Hero King.

• The old people followed Tali's example, silently turning toward the sky as they resisted Inanna.

• Monkey King used his knowledge of Gilgamesh’s fighting style to batter the Puppet Hero King and withstand attacks from the divine artifacts.
• Monkey King created clones to distract the artifacts, then let the King’s Scepter drain his divine power so he could rush the Puppet Hero King and smash his brain.
