"No! I won't allow it!"

Samael leaped to the front of that petite figure and growled in a low voice.

However, the little girl with purple hair raised her small face and revealed a smile of remembrance and happiness.

"Hey, Samael, Uruk, that kind of city was my dream."

"My sisters and I will no longer run away, nor will we bear the curse, nor will we fear the heroes' wrath."

"To be treated gently by humans, and to treat others with the same gentleness, so that I can live on like this forever..."

"Therefore, I want to protect this city, and protect everyone!"

The ancient snake turned its eyes away, ignoring the pleading look on Anna's face, and firmly shook its head.

"Then you should protect yourself first!"

"Gorgon's divinity hasn't been weakened yet. Having devoured so many lives and endured such immense power, even if she isn't the true Origin Goddess, she's at least at the level of a chief god!"

"You're just throwing your life away!"

Anna tiptoed and gently stroked the mane on the neck of the Lion-headed Storm Demon.

"Samael, I know you're worried about me..."

"But everyone has done their best, and there's no other way..."

The Young Goddess Form looked up at the shattered Babylonia defenses, her gaze sweeping over the faces filled with despair and fear, finally settling on the city of Uruk faintly visible beyond the rift.

"I'm sorry, Samael, I'm the only one who can stop her..."

"If the magic is fully gathered next time, Granny Flower Shop, Sister Siduri, Uncle Who Gave Me Pancakes, and you and Merlin, everyone will die."

As he murmured, the purple-haired pizza drooped down, its smooth forehead touching Samael's forehead.

Anna wrapped her arms around the neck of the ancient snake, closed her eyes gently, and whispered softly.

"Don't worry, it's not because of self-blame or disgust."

"All I want is to protect Uruk, to protect everyone..."

"Let me have some time, it'll be too late if I wait any longer..."

When that petite body slowly rose, her bright and determined purple eyes made even the self-proclaimed mature Samael unable to look her in the eye.

"Merlin, if I lure her away, can you hold Uruk?"

Just as the ancient serpent was filled with mixed thoughts, Anna turned her head to look at the almost transparent dream demon behind her.

"Um, well... I can try..."

Merlin watched as a large number of magical beasts gradually approached from the darkness, and his scalp tingled; his gaze became somewhat unfocused.

But in an instant, a pair of malevolent, cold Serpent Eyes scanned his fleshy body from head to toe.

"Yes! Absolutely!"

"As long as we can keep that Beast Goddess at bay, holding the Babylonia defenses won't be a problem!"

The dream demon immediately nodded its head frantically, making a solemn promise.

At this moment, the sinister gaze from behind Anna finally subsided.

"Alright, I'll take care of drawing the Gorgon away. I'll leave this to you!"

The Young Goddess Form breathed a sigh of relief, excitedly clenching her pink fist and waving it lightly in mid-air. Then she pulled up her hood, turned her head towards the night's monster tide, and spread her senses to explore the Gorgon.

"Luckily, you old liar were smart enough to give me a straight answer, otherwise, hehe..."

Samael stretched out his limbs, circled around Merlin, and hummed softly.

"Remember your promise, protect Uruk! Even if it costs you your life!"

"Was it really that bad?"

Merlin's expression was stiff, and he forced a bitter smile.

"You think you're the only one risking your life? You old fox!"

The ancient serpent took a deep breath, then stretched out its limbs and slowly stepped forward, leaving behind a low murmur.

"You hold the line in Babylonia and defend against the monster tide. Anna and I will fight side by side!"

The Young Goddess Form looked surprised, biting her lower lip tightly, as if she wanted to refuse.

However, the majestic lion- Lion-headed Storm Demon reached out and lifted her by the shoulder, then threw the small body onto her back.

"Use your Riding talent; together, we can last much longer."

"Besides, if it weren't for me, how would you have managed to sneak in from the monster horde?"

Samael gazed intently into the darkness, a deep smile playing on his lips, his tone leaving no room for doubt. He then carefully separated from the human group, slipping into the shadows to await his opportunity.

At this moment, a rustling sound approached, and monsters such as Uridimmu, Mushhushshu, Tri-horned Lion Dragon, and Soul Eater Beast swarmed in.

"The monsters are coming up! The monsters are coming up! Be on alert!"

"Hedgehog Gathering Formation! Beast Goddess, heh, come and take it if you dare!"

Despite his severe injuries, Leonidas remained standing atop the wall. Though he was merely standing still, his muscles began to tremble uncontrollably, yet he stood like an unyielding flag, rekindling the soldiers' will to resist.

"Sparta! Sparta! Sparta!"

The hysterical cries diluted the fear, and the sense of reliance on one another brought a strange sense of peace to the terrified Uruk people.

Even more incredible is that, like a poem, pink petals flutter and fall all around.

When it comes into contact with the human body, it immediately becomes a warm current that seeps into the skin, drawing upon a surging magical power to temper its sharpness.

And then, clusters of flowers inexplicably bloomed beneath his feet, Leonidas's transformation became even more pronounced, his wounds healed rapidly, and his divine power and blood seemed to boil violently.

"Dream Leadership!"

"Heroic Sculpting!"

The dream demon, whose vision was so clear that it could see what was behind it, sat cross-legged in a corner, leaning on its staff, looking up at the surging tide of monsters, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and mutter to itself.

"Big Brother, I really tried my best..."

"The rest is up to you all."

At this moment, the Lion -Lion-headed Storm Demon, lurking in the shadows, saw that humans and monsters had already clashed and chaos was spreading. It immediately tensed its limbs, exerted its strength, and leaped out from the rubble.

Under the cover of darkness, a traitor, with erratic steps, slipped through the gaps and charged back into the wasteland.

As the battle raged on, the dim-witted monsters were completely unaware that a certain high-ranking member of their ranks had secretly reversed course.

Stay calm... stay calm... you must stay calm...

The traitor carefully avoided contact with the offspring of high-level magical beasts, using his own bloodline scent to move freely among the low-level cannon fodder.

Finally, after a full quarter of an hour of trekking, the figure perched atop the low hill revealed its clear outline.

Wow... it's huge!

Samael looked at the over ten-meter-tall Beast Goddess with awe, his gaze lingering unconsciously on a certain spot for a moment longer.

But the moment the two were less than ten meters apart, a pair of purplish-red vertical pupils suddenly opened, coldly sweeping across the area where the ancient snake was.

"What is that?! Get away from me!"

We've been exposed!

As the last two venomous snakes, each with long, purplish-red hair, attacked from different angles, their tongues flicking, Samael broke out in a cold sweat.

With a horde of monstrous beasts right behind it, the ancient serpent had no choice but to grit its teeth and charge forward.

"Boom boom boom boom!"

The Beast Goddess summoned a series of giant, purplish-red snakes, which opened their mouths and bit down on Samael, crushing the earth and stones and raising clouds of dust.

The agile ancient snake dodged left and right, constantly emerging from the gaps between dozens of snake heads.

"You think you can stop me from taking my revenge!"

The Beast Goddess was furious. Behind her, dozens of raised snake heads converged to form purplish-red Sorcery Array, ready to unleash their power.

Good heavens! This is going to be a blanket attack on the entire map!

Samael was terrified, swinging his four legs in turn, creating several afterimages.

But the closer they got, the more acutely the purplish-red snake heads became, and the layered encirclement made the strange monster extremely dangerous.

"Laugh!"

Just as a giant serpent was about to bite Samael from behind, the monster's belly twitched.

With his superb Riding skills, he hid below the Young Goddess Form, flipped himself upwards, stood on Samael's back, and slashed through the entangled giant serpent.

Immediately, amidst the torrential rain of blood, the young girl lifted her hood, revealing her true face, and faced the Beast Goddess, raising her head and roaring.

"Gorgon! Can't you even see your own true form?!"
