Chapter 189: Firefly's Grand Slam
"Let me show you, Gate of Babylon!" Several golden ripples appeared behind Gilgamesh, opening countless doors to his treasury. In an instant, the sky was dyed golden! Countless legendary divine weapons poured down like torrential rain!
"Saber! Archer! Cover!" Rin and Shirou ordered loudly. Saber's Wind King Barrier expanded, and Archer projected several shields, but even more Noble Phantasms crashed down.
"Hmph, mongrels, tremble before the King!" Gilgamesh stood proudly.
Just then— "SAM!"
Boom! The silver-white mecha burst out with astonishing thrust, soaring into the sky against the overwhelming barrage!
"Oh? A mere hunk of iron dares to challenge the King's majesty?" Gilgamesh sneered, and more Noble Phantasms shot out.
However— "Haaaaah—!" SAM's fists ignited with scorching flames, smashing into the incoming weapons!
Bang! A legendary demonic sword was knocked aside! Boom! A divine spear was snapped in half! Even A-rank Noble Phantasms shattered under SAM's iron fists!
"This… how is this possible?!" Gilgamesh showed a shocked expression for the first time. How could his treasures be so easily destroyed by a machine?
"This much isn't even enough for a warm-up!" SAM actually grabbed a flying Noble Phantasm—the legendary Fangtian Huaji! "Let me borrow your toy!" SAM wielded it like a club, sweeping in all directions!
"Damn mongrel! How dare you desecrate my treasures!" Gilgamesh was truly enraged. Thousands of Noble Phantasms simultaneously targeted SAM!
However, as everyone's attention was drawn to the sky, you had already quietly approached. In your Mystic Eyes' vision, the clearest Line of Death… was on Gilgamesh himself!
Now! "SAM!" you shouted.
With a telepathic connection, Firefly instantly understood. "I will—ignite the sea of stars!" She abandoned all defense, charging straight at Gilgamesh like a burning meteor!
"Foolish!" The King of Heroes sneered, redirecting all Noble Phantasms to crush her! But he didn't notice… the moment SAM attracted all the firepower, you had already rushed behind him!
"When did—" Gilgamesh suddenly turned his head, his crimson eyes filled with astonishment. Too close! On his body, a Line of Death extended from his neck to his heart, inviting you to cut it!
Your sword moved! Pfft— The blade slid across that Line of Death.
Gilgamesh remained in his turning posture, his golden pupils slowly widening. Black cracks spread from where he was cut, and his golden armor began to disintegrate. "Why... my immortal body... you... in this world, there is actually an existence more perfect than me... Truly... unpleasant..."
Before disappearing, he suddenly smiled. "However, to be defeated by such a sword... it doesn't disgrace my reputation. Remember... mongrel... I acknowledge you..." As his voice faded, the King of Heroes completely vanished.
"Oh my... what a pity." Just then, Kirei Kotomine emerged from the shadows, a strange smile on his face. "The King of Heroes was killed so easily... truly astonishing. An existence capable of slaying the oldest king... what exactly are you?" He licked his lips, and black mud began to seep from the ground around him. "What I seek is not some noble 'joy'. I just want to see... the ugliest side of humanity! Watching them struggle in despair, cry in pain… That is the purest pleasure!"
He spread his arms, and ten Black Keys appeared in his hands. "Come on, let me see what kind of expression you will show when you are on the verge of death!" He sneered, charging at you with astonishing speed!
"Be careful! That black mud is very dangerous!" Rin warned.
You gripped your sword, ready to meet the attack. Just then.
"What are you mumbling about, so much nonsense!" SAM's voice came from the side.
Kirei only managed to glimpse a massive silver figure out of the corner of his eye. The next instant, Bang! An iron fist, wrapped in propulsion flames, slammed into his cheek at supersonic speed!
Time suddenly slowed. Kirei's face twisted and deformed, and his entire body spiraled upwards! Boom boom boom—! His body smashed through several walls of the church, finally embedding itself deep into distant ruins, leaving only a series of human-shaped holes.
"..." The entire place was silent.
"Sorry," SAM casually shook its hand. "I didn't control my strength well and accidentally one-shotted him... This should still be within the script's allowance, right?"
