Gods Block the Way, and the Reinforcements Arrive in Disarray / The Gods Attack? Fists as Big as Sandbags!
"Speaking of which, looking up from here seems to allow us to see even more..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka glanced at Mash with some concern, tightened her grip on her junior's hand, and looked up, squinting at her—
"If we move a little further over there, will we be able to see it more clearly...?"
Just then, the pure white little beast suddenly jumped onto Mash's shoulder, letting out a somewhat hurried cry—
"Fu... Fu, Fuwu..."
"Fufu?"
Mash out of her daze and looked at Fufu with some confusion.
Suddenly, the melodious sound of bells drifted from the distant horizon, causing the bustling crowd on the street to pause, and then they all knelt down in unison—
"—My beloved citizens of Olympus!"
..."
The gentle voice of the Goddess Europa spread throughout the city through a prop that was either magic or technology, announcing the divine Divine Oracle that the heinous Chaldea had invaded Olympus, and that everyone had the right and responsibility to use violence against them, assist in their capture, and kill them.
"Senior..."
Upon hearing the mention of the crimson crest on her right hand in the announcement, Mash immediately tensed up.
Chapter 589 Gods Blocking the Gate and the Disheveled Reinforcements
Since this is not a regular Holy Grail War, there is no need to worry about attacks from other factions.
Furthermore, revealing her Master identity allows her to better obtain help from the Heroic Spirits of the Pan-Human History, so Fujimaru Ritsuka generally does not deliberately hide her identity.
Now, this seems to have become a fatal mistake.
It should be noted that, with the delivery of the Divine Oracle, almost all the people of Olympus expressed their sincerest sincerity to that voice.
In this situation, the three of them were already quite conspicuous.
If their Command Spells are exposed again, they will be in real danger.
However, when Mash looked at the back of Fujimaru Ritsuka's hand, she didn't see the familiar Command Spells pattern, which made the little eggplant pause in surprise—
"Huh?"
"I've hidden it for you beforehand. Don't stare at Ritsuka's hands; it'll arouse suspicion. Look at the other people around you—"
We are now ordinary citizens of Olympus, and upon hearing this Divine Oracle, we should, while filled with doubt and astonishment, unite in our hatred and search for the heinous Chaldea invaders.
Gwen communicated with Mash, while simultaneously observing the others, appearing to be obedient to Divine Oracle. Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka, relieved, followed suit.
Although the three men's disrespectful behavior was somewhat jarring, upon seeing this, the few citizens who had noticed their unusual behavior also shifted their attention—
In a large forest, you'll find all sorts of birds; it's not impossible that a few disrespectful and rebellious individuals will occasionally appear. The most urgent task is to find the evil Chaldea.
"Let's go, let's leave here first, find a library or something where we might be able to find historical materials, and learn about the local situation."
Noticing that the gazes that had been watching them had all shifted away, Gwen prepared to leave with the two of them.
"Ah, I noticed it when I was looking at the road signs; there's a library over there—"
Mash seemed to have recovered from her previous contemplation and pointed to Gwen's left.
"Good."
Gwen nodded and led the two toward the library.
What kind of development and ideologies would humanity undergo under the rule or protection of gods?
Putting aside our opposing stances, this is an interesting question, Gwen believes that many on his side will be interested in it.
"Humans under the protection of gods?"
Could you elaborate?
Upon seeing the topic sent by Gwen, Nguyen May, who had just finished an experiment, raised an eyebrow.
"For example, what do you mean by 'gods'?"
Nguyen May has traveled to many worlds, visited many planets, and met some self-proclaimed gods, though she is unsure what kind of gods Gwen was referring to.
"In common myths and legends, there are gods who control natural phenomena such as thunder, the sun, and the moon, and who can control the rising and setting of the sun and moon, wind and rain, and exercise corresponding great powers."
Gwen she had indeed replied, Gwyn explained—
"Of course, the deity I'm currently with is somewhat special—"
They were originally an exiled fleet of a certain civilization, and their true forms were all machine gods that sailed in deep space.
However, after their mysterious encounter with this planet, they accepted the cheers and faith of humanity, and it seems that they combined some of the characteristics and abilities of the original body to give birth to the powers I mentioned earlier.
As for the effort...
It could probably cover the surface of a planet?
It's hard to say for sure, I'll give you an answer in a bit.
"A little while?"
Seeing this unreliable answer, Nguyen Mai was taken aback.
"Yes, we've been exposed. They've already come knocking on our door."
Gwen explained to his Netizen while glancing at the person blocking their path—
With an arrogant expression and revealing clothing, she was nonetheless a stunningly beautiful red-haired Goddess.
A golden-haired Goddess with a compassionate face and an approachable charm that unconsciously inspires goodwill;
A human woman dressed in luxurious clothes, with a gentle expression tinged with pity;
With an arrogant expression, their haughtiness almost written on their faces, the blond brother and sister—a pair of Divine Spirit- level heroic spirits—looked down at the group.
And with them came... a large contingent of Olympus soldiers and enormous bronze giants.
"Wow, what a grand display..."
Gwen sized up the group that had surrounded him, casually ripped off Da Vinci's disguise, and leisurely observed these powerful enemies whose energy reactions had all reached the level of gods.
"Two Goddess, one demigod, and a pair of Divine Spirit- level servants."
Even with these grunts, they should be enough to push through the Lostbelt, right?
Gwen spoke, he Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was standing to the side, and asked her with great interest.
It's not surprising that the gods saw through Da Vinci's hastily made little dress; it's also quite normal for them to discover these three oddballs behaving strangely and carrying the iconic animal Fufu in their own lair.
Now that we've been exposed, there's no need to keep hiding. We should just stand out openly and even use the pre-battle trash talk to get some information out of each other.
"Indeed, this is a terrifying lineup that far surpasses those of the Lostbelt..."
Unconsciously clenching her sweaty palms, Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression turned serious.
However, those fully armed Olympus soldiers behind them would have been formidable enemies in the past, let alone those who were just grunts. The real challenge was the several god-level bosses in front.
However, seeing Gwen's relaxed expression, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt a slight sense of relief.
With Gwen, a powerful figure capable of withstanding Zeus's lightning strike, they weren't entirely without any power to resist...
Although Gwen is still a questionable ally, the brief experience just now allowed the young but knowledgeable Fujimaru Ritsuka to perceive Gwen's goodwill. That kind of kindness and gentleness, which was unexpectedly natural despite being a first meeting, made Fujimaru Ritsuka subconsciously trust him more.
"Senior, please prepare for battle..."
As magic surged, Mash summoned her shield and her battle armor, fully armed, and carefully shielded Fujimaru Ritsuka behind her—
All the enemies present, even those Olympus soldiers who looked like mere grunts, gave Mash the feeling that they were difficult to deal with.
At this point, their only reliable ally was Gwen.
"How utterly unreasonable..."
Faced with Gwen's offensive words, Castor of the Twin Gods, showed disgust and glared at Gwen unhappily.
"You came here with a group of soldiers, all high and mighty, to surround and kill us. And you expect me to address you as a supreme god?"
Gwen squinted at the brother and sister, whose aura carried a hint of resentment, chuckled, and then looked away.
These two are not worth worrying about at all.
Compared to the unlikable Twin Gods in this Lostbelt, Gwen was more concerned about what was happening in the distance—
Over there, amidst the collision of powerful magical energy fluctuations, they are being driven towards this side.
"Senior, it's Miss Musashi!"
Mash, with her sharp eyes, spotted the familiar figure through the smoke and dust and exclaimed in surprise.
Chapter 590 A Divine Intervention? A Fist the Size of a Sandbag!
The massive, bulky bronze giants, whose movements were by no means slow but rather swift compared to their enormous size, were imbued with terrifying magical power. Two of them, along with nearby Olympus soldiers, relentlessly pursued a figure whose clothing was clearly out of place among the locals.
Under deliberate control, this obvious outsider was driven to where Gwen and his companions were.
Boom!
Gwen glanced at the Bronze Age member who was forcing the swordsman from the Far East to defend himself, ignored the four gods who were eyeing him menacingly, and threw a Sun Spear.
Although he didn't experience any miracles from the Dark Souls world, Gwen Sun Spear, developed using the derivative abilities of his Cosmo, was still a force to be reckoned with.
The light gun ripped through the distant space in an instant, creating a hole in the chests of the two bronze giants large enough to tear them to pieces.
"Ha...
I was hoping to see if I could help you guys out, but then I got chased down and ended up having to rely on you guys to escape. It's a bit embarrassing..."
The white-haired swordsman looked on in surprise as the bronze giant who had put him in such a precarious situation was actually killed, and scratched his head in annoyance.
However, despite saying this, the swordsman who had naturally come to Mash's side turned his gaze to Gwen—
Although she often presents herself as a cheerful and food-loving older sister, the swordswoman actually has a hidden martial arts obsession.
Although she was somewhat different from a martial arts fanatic in the conventional sense, the swordswoman couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement upon seeing a powerful figure like Gwen who could defeat an opponent she had struggled with for a long time with a mere flick of his wrist.
However, with a formidable enemy at hand, the swordswoman was able to distinguish between what was important and what was urgent, and she pointed her sword at the enemy.
"Gwen, this is Miss Musashi, a friend we met in a previous singularity, who also helped us in a previous Lostbelt."
Seeing her former friend in her time of crisis brought Mash an unexpected joy.
However, dealing with the current situation is more important than reminiscing about the past.
So, Mash immediately introduced the two parties—
"Miss Musashi, this is Gwen, a powerful ally."
However, before Gwen and Miyamoto Musashi respond, an extremely impatient voice interrupted—
"There's a limit to talking to yourself, you rude fellow..."
Along with the words came the sword light that struck Miyamoto Musashi.
However, the Twin Gods brother's seemingly inevitable sword strike was blocked by the sword in the hand of Musashi.
"Ouch..."
With a slightly affected air, Miyamoto Musashi shook his trembling katana, looked at his Castor who looked astonished, and put on a completely unpretentious serious expression—
"To a great god, your blade is far too thin, your maneuverability and speed are also extremely weak, as light as a feather that I could easily block..."
Having grown up in the streets, Musashi knew very well what it meant to lose the battle but not the moral high ground.
"How exactly did they achieve that speed and power?"
That's almost the speed of light, isn't it?
If it weren't for the help we received from behind, Mash and I would probably already be..."
However, even though he was inwardly groaning, Musashi maintained a triumphant and sarcastic demeanor on his face.
Faced with Musashi's teasing, Castor's already sour face became even uglier. His magical power surged, and his terrifying aura made people almost wonder if he would explode at any moment, taking the world with him.
However, before Castor could launch another attack, Europa's gentle and melodious voice rang out once more—
"Step back, Dioscuri Castor!"
However, even faster than Europa's words came Gwen's fist. The fist, the size of a sandbag, slammed solidly into Castor's handsome face, denting it and sending the acknowledged son of Zeus flying backward, crashing through several buildings.
"Ah, brother!"
Upon seeing her brother being attacked, even though she could sense the attacker's still stable aura, Pollux, the younger sister of the Twin Gods, disregarded her attack on Gwen and rushed out to find her brother who had been knocked away.
