A violent explosion occurred on the deck of Storm Border.
Thanks to Skadi's protective barrier, the explosion left traces but caused no damage.
Gazing at the thick smoke from the explosion, U-Olga Marie quietly awaited Shiomi and the others' reaction.
In fact, she had similar thoughts to Shiomi and the others.
One God.
A new god formed by the fusion of a divine body and a fairy, a concept completely different from the "Alien God".
It is also an unprecedented existence in the history of Earth and humankind.
However, since there was no one to communicate with, this feeling could not be put into concrete terms. U-Olga Marie simply judged that the One God was a threat that had to be eliminated.
Even though she didn't see it as a cause for concern, it remained the same.
whoosh-
A sharp, piercing sound rang out as several dark figures broke through the dust and smoke, heading straight for U-Olga Marie.
"Ok?"
Realizing that it wasn't a flying device or a ranged attack, but rather a semi-autonomous attack method capable of continuously targeting enemies, U-Olgamarie turned her gaze and clearly saw the weapons that were attacking her.
After quickly dodging an attack, he grabbed one of the items.
"The Cursed Crimson Spear, and the Holy Spear and the Spear of God?"
After scanning the captured Zhu Qiang and the other three spears flying around, she recognized the true nature of these treasures for some reason.
Even their real names can't be said.
The red spear roared in her hand, trying to break free of its grip and launch another attack.
U-Olga Marie had no interest in taking it, but she was also dissatisfied that a mere Noble Phantasm dared to defy her.
"White Night · Ice Flower".
Morgan's clear voice rang out, piercing through the howling wind and reaching U-Olga Marie's ears.
A chilling blue light swept in like a torrential downpour.
Chapter Twelve Fierce Battle
Each arrow is made of ice formed from magic.
Upon hitting the target, it will explode, transforming into a high-level freezing magic that freezes the target.
An attack method that combines archery and magic.
Shiomi used Arinneki, whom she had previously used to defeat the Fang Clan, and then subdued him.
It only took one arrow.
However, now, a dense rain of arrows fell upon U-Olga Marie, but left no wounds, only freezing part of her body.
“As expected, it didn’t work. The power of the ‘Alien God’ has become even stronger than before,” Morgan said in a low voice.
“It must have completely absorbed the Imaginary Tree from the Chinese Lostbelt,” Shiomi judged. “We caught it off guard before, and it didn’t have time to digest the devoured Imaginary Tree.”
“It looks like this will be even more difficult than last time. Should we send Scáthach and Artoria to help?” Morgan asked.
"That won't work; it would only make things more dangerous," Shio said. "It would actually restrict our abilities."
Morgan couldn't help but chuckle: "I didn't expect even they would become 'a hindrance'."
If she cannot become a unified God with her husband, she will probably hinder the battle in the same way at this time.
"First, get the 'Alien God' off the deck!" tide Jian stopped talking about it and instead reminded him, "I'll switch between magic and power, you just need to do your thing, no need to worry about what's behind you."
Morgan once again drew the magic spear, which had transformed into a longbow, to its full draw, unleashing a strike comparable to the limited-release Holy Lance.
This time, it wasn't just Shiomi's special skill, but rather a fusion of his skill with her 'Tower' magic.
U-Olga Marie, who had just escaped from the ice, was hit again and was forcibly pushed off the deck, slowly flying into the sky.
U-Olgamarie was furious at being forced to distance herself from Storm Border.
The priest was right. In terms of strength, she would not lose to the One God, but her opponent was far more experienced in combat and had a variety of attack methods.
Even if it doesn't inflict significant damage, it still prevents her from achieving a one-sided battle.
"It's just that we've created some distance!"
Lacking the ability to fly, U-Olgamarie moves through the air by instantaneous, seamless movement.
Move from one coordinate in the air to another.
The constraints of gravity are also circumvented through this cheating-like method.
After all, operating anti-gravity flight requires more precise skills, and she hasn't had time to study that yet.
U-Olgamarie once again teleported continuously towards Storm Border.
If we don't use that ship as a base, we'll have to fight on the ground.
She didn't like this dead land covered in lava.
"So, you mean you don't know how to fight at all?" Morgan's voice suddenly rang in my ears.
A clear, deep blue mirror made of water suddenly blocked U-Olga Marie's view after she had teleported.
As he spoke these words, the One God Morgan appeared in the water mirror, his magic spear slamming down like a hammer onto U-Olga Marie.
"Ugh—!"
It worked.
Having tasted the pain, U-Olga Marie was thrown backward by the impact, glaring angrily at Morgan.
"As expected, your strength is too great, so you only know how to crush others with your strength. You have no fighting skills and don't know how to fight against opponents with similar strength."
Morgan, wielding his magic spear, ordered the four spears' magical artifacts to pursue U-Olga Marie.
In contrast, in just a few rounds, Morgan and Shiomi had already figured out U-Olga Marie's conceptual defense and found an effective way to attack.
Although it worked, there was no bleeding, not even a wound.
"Sharpen your nerves, observe the other party's movements clearly, and predict the coordinates of the 'Alien God's' next appearance," tide Jian calmly instructed. "With me by your side, your water mirror won't be slower than hers."
"That's natural."
Morgan smiled and leaned back, his body disappearing into the water mirror behind him.
The counterattack arrived at that moment.
After neutralizing the impact of Morgan's attack, U-Olga Marie began teleporting at an extremely high frequency, engaging in a teleportation battle with the One God who used the Water Mirror for teleportation.
Predict the opponent's next coordinates and strike before they arrive.
Thunder rumbled incessantly, and lightning flashed repeatedly, illuminating the overcast sky.
Within that, one can see explosions of the scale of the city's treasures, one after another, caused by the shockwaves from the attacks of the One God Morgan and U-Olga Marie.
"At this rate, even if we wanted to help, we couldn't..."
Scáthach, who was positioned at the entrance to the deck, was observing the current battle situation with Artoria.
The situation has reached a point beyond their control.
Just as the only enemy of the Alien God is the Unity God, the Unity God, as Chaldea's trump card, is also the only being capable of winning the battle against the Alien God.
“No, there’s definitely something we can do,” Artoria said. “Once Tianxi and Morgan have weakened the ‘Alien God’s’ capabilities to a level where we can keep up, then we’ll—”
Suddenly, a communication from the bridge interrupted Artoria's words.
"Wait a minute, what? You said you observed anomalies on the surface?" Scáthach pressed the communicator in her ear to make sure she hadn't misheard.
Artoria immediately ran to the deck to observe the situation on the ground.
Large-scale crustal collapses gradually occurred.
Beneath the collapsed earth, a huge cavity can be seen.
Its straight-line length is difficult to estimate in kilometers.
"A massive underground cavity? Could it be that the real part of the South American Lostbelt is underground?" Scáthach was utterly astonished.
The surface environment was too harsh for survival, so the civilization of this Lostbelt moved underground.
The next second, an extremely high-temperature heat source emanating from the underground cavity surged up directly beneath Storm Border.
The dazzling pillar of light nearly struck the warship, and the immense magical power forced Scáthach and Artoria to retreat, avoiding close contact with the heat source that was concentrated with high levels of magical power.
A pillar of light rose from the underground cavern, soaring into the clouds higher than Storm Border, illuminating the entire South American land.
"It's just like seeing... the sun..."
Scáthach was so blinded by the light that she could barely open her eyes. She shielded her eyes with her hands and used runes to create a light-blocking spell before she could see what was in front of her.
"Is it an attack from the 'Alien God'?" Artoria asked.
“No, that thing has a negative fundamental value; it’s from the Lostbelt.” Scáthach relayed the analysis she heard from the bridge.
Finally, just as the battle between the Unified God and the "Alien God" reached its climax, the Lostbelts also reacted.
Chapter Thirteen: The Fall
"With an internal air pressure of 2000 billion, a temperature of 1600 million degrees, and a density 160 times that of water... it looks exactly like the sun!"
Sion, who was in charge of analyzing intelligence, reported astonishing analytical results.
Even if she hadn't said the last half of her sentence, Scáthach and Artoria would have felt that the pillar of light in front of them was like the sun.
Just standing on the deck, you can feel the scorching heat that's enough to make you feel suffocated.
If a human magician were standing here, a slight delay in reaction could cause them to faint from the heat.
“Everyone else, stay in the hangar and don’t move out. The situation outside is no longer one where we can provide support!” Scáthach made the judgment. “Director Mary, immediately have Storm Border change its course and prepare to get away from here.”
"Are you going to abandon your teacher?" Olga Marie asked anxiously.
“It’s not about abandoning us, it’s about staying here. We’ll all become a burden.” Scáthach finished speaking and glanced at the barrier surrounding the warship.
The ship is still in a very stable condition. It would be safer to move away and retreat to a safe distance.
The rest can only be left to Shiomi and Morgan's judgment.
Of course, the premise of this judgment is that, while fighting the "Alien God," one still has the capacity to consider everything around them.
After another collision, Morgan and U-Olgamarie were separated in mid-air.
"—What, that light is...in that underground world, there's nothing like that anywhere—"
U-Olgamarie was very unhappy because the battle was being thwarted, but what happened next surprised her.
The pillar of light suddenly expanded, then contracted and solidified, transforming into a giant of light that was burning fiercely.
The giant raised his right hand high, aiming at the location of the One God Morgan and the "Alien God," as well as the Storm Border near the battle zone.
"Are they targeting us? Or Storm Border?" Morgan was unsure for a moment.
The only certainty is that, regardless of which side it is aimed at, the falling attack will inevitably hit all targets, including the 'Alien God'.
"It seems the Lostbelt side isn't on the same page as the 'Alien God' either," Shiomi replied to Morgan. "Let's forget about the 'Alien God' for now and prepare to deal with them—"
Before Shio could finish speaking, the burning giant of light suddenly swung its arm downwards, its hand blade aimed precisely at the airspace.
It moves very fast, but it's not impossible to dodge.
The problem is that if the One God dodges, the hand chop will inevitably hit Storm Border.
Even the slightest scratch could leave fatal damage, endangering the lives of everyone on board.
A remarkably precise move.
Morgan crossed his arms and unleashed his full magical power as he slashed at the massive hand blade falling towards him.
The concept of building a defense based on power took the hit instead of Storm Border.
—We caught it for now.
"Can you feel it? It's clearly burning, but the sensation it gives isn't light or flame, but... a mixture of plants and minerals." Shiomi was astonished. "Is this really a substance that exists on Earth?"
"Let's save our thoughts for later; we need to stop them first," Morgan replied to Shio in his mind.
She stared intently at the light hand blade that was so close to her and was slowly breaking through her conceptual defenses as it descended. Her wide-open fairy eyes shone with a dazzling light.
