I Can See Health Bars in Real Life

Chapter 555 38: Meeting the Conditions for Victory!

"Wha-what?!"Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others widened their eyes, looking helplessly towards Gu Mo, then instinctively turned their attention to the Skeleton Knight.

Not long ago, they had received information about the "Beast" from King Gilgamesh, and Merlin had also hinted at some information—

So-called human evil refers to various calamities threatening human history and destroying humanity. They are born from human civilization, growing stronger with human progress, yet annihilate civilization from within, akin to cancerous cells.

And because they are disasters born from human beastliness, they are also known as "Beasts."

That is, the so-called "Beast"...

The Tiamat God they are facing now is one of the material manifestations of human evil, which is why it is so terrifying! Just appearing can push all humanity to the brink of destruction, its mere existence can obliterate the world, leaving no hope of opposition.

And now hearing the Skeleton Knight say that this Immortal is also one of the human evils is naturally shocking to them, even making their scalps tingle slightly.

"No, it can't be, Senior Gu Mo he clearly... clearly..."

Fujimaru Ritsuka blurted out instinctively, but didn't know how to continue, after all, this Skeleton Knight had helped them, back during the Sixth Anomaly, if not for the help of this Assassin, they would have been defeated long ago.

So this Skeleton Knight seems to have no reason to lie.

The girl instinctively looked at someone, wanting to see what he would say, only to find that his expression remained unchanged, merely smiling and speaking cryptically:

"But the greatest threat now is the Tiamat God... She is the one who will destroy the world now, not me, so your sword should only strike at her."

Did he... not deny it?

Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned, her mind blank, she stared blankly in the direction of Gu Mo... Could it be that this person truly is also a human evil?!

"Beasts will chain manifest, once one Beast appears, others will follow suit, the world of human evil manifestation will progress into further calamity towards the 'Final Evil', once the first Beast appears, the seventh Beast of the end might already be lurking somewhere in the world."

A mocking voice sounded, echoing in everyone's ears, explaining this matter to Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"So there's nothing strange about it, I suspect, even the masterminds behind the burning of human reason, at their essence, may be the Beast of Original Sin, so it's not surprising if another one pops up."

"..."

"..."

"King Gilgamesh? You're here?!"

Mash excitedly looked over there, indeed spotting the figure of the King of Uruk, the young man who usually sat on his throne, appeared this time below the Netherworld.

However, he didn't seem to be in his previous magician attire but had donned a majestic golden armor.

"Hm, you did quite well. I was planning to construct Nabistin's Tooth in Uruk to handle the black mud from the ocean, yet you managed to intercept her here in the Persian Gulf, driving the battle to this point..."

The blond, red-eyed, tall young man strode over, praising loudly, he glimpsed in Gu Mo's direction but then looked away indifferently, only gazing at the silhouette of Tiamat God standing in the Netherworld, laughing heartily.

"Well done! You've done well, I feel unparalleled joy for this. But since it's the final battle, I naturally can't be absent, having been pondering how to arrange for my death, now the headache is gone..."

"D-death?" Mash was momentarily stunned.

Gilgamesh offered no explanation, merely also looking towards the Skeleton Knight, saying in a deep voice: "I agree with what this guy just said, focus on the current situation, human evil can never be eradicated, as long as humans exist it will arise, we only need to deal with the Beasts currently our enemies."

"Yes, yes, I think it makes sense." Gu Mo nodded repeatedly in agreement.

He naturally couldn't be some human evil, merely maintaining a merger state at present. Miss Tamamo no Mae, who was perpetually ready to cause trouble for him, could very well have such qualities... thus the misunderstanding is normal, though he wasn't about to explain, after all, he couldn't push Miss Fox Spirit out to take a bullet for him.

Moreover, Fufu, the cute white animal always following Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, isn't her real form the fourth Beast that presides over the principle of "Comparison"?

So, not every Beast has to be on the opposing side, there's no need for the old man to be so wary of him.

"..."

"..."

A brief silence.

The Skeleton Knight finally shifted his gaze, looking towards the distant giant Mother Goddess, striding over there. He could only wield the most critical strike, having observed for a long time, but now it seems, the strike could indeed only be directed towards Tiamat, the Mother of Origin.

"Ugh... the output from the Netherworld is starting to decline."

The blond maiden beside him suddenly seemed to realize something, her face quickly showing tension.

From earlier until now, the mother who seemed to have fallen into the Land of Death had quieted down, not doing much, which barely got her to sigh in relief, only to immediately realize maybe it wasn't that the mother had accepted her fate, but was instead holding back a big move... which left her shocked and anxious.

The Netherworld has constructed a system to render the gods powerless, and as Tiamat falls into it, she will also be suppressed by the forces of the Netherworld, constantly subject to its corrosive burn, which equates to the output of top-level Treasure every minute and every second.

Yet, despite this, there is no sign of evident damage on this Mother of Origin, who can continuously produce Tides of Chaos and Rahmu, and sweep through the entire Netherworld without directly doing anything... that is already quite worrying, what has she done now?

"Tiamat God's Spirit Base reaction is further expanding..."

In the communication coming from Chaldea, Dr. Roman's voice suddenly becomes urgent.

"The Spirit Base is returning to the Divine Era, reaching the Jurassic! Wait... this, this is no longer Divinity, it is undoubtedly the Divine Body!"

Amidst the rapidly intensifying background atmosphere, no one responds to the doctor's words, not even Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, who stare blankly into the distance as a pair of gigantic wings unfold slowly on the Netherworld ground, supported by the colossal wings which are over a hundred meters, a dark dragon standing over sixty meters tall raises its head.

Almost under everyone's watchful eyes, the beautiful yet mournful Mother of Origin transforms into an unimaginably gigantic Demon Dragon!!

"This, this is..." Hiri's eyes widen.

As if the words were stuck in her throat, unable to come out, the Demon Hunter Girl feels a terrifying pressure emanating from afar, instinctively causing her slender body to shiver, that's the pulse of great Life, also the crushing and intimidation of Life's essence.

"Tiamat is also referred to as Dragon, she probably replaced her own Spirit Base, transforming from a usual state into the present dragon form..."

Gu Mo says softly, his eyes also glimmering, it was already hard to fight previously, no matter how much effort they put into their attacks, it only serves to waste time, regardless of Technique or Treasure launched, it probably symbolically deducts a bit of health.

Comparing to that terrifying health bar, it's likely that their attacks are slower than its recovery speed.

As for now, it's probably even more dreadful.

So they have to follow the strategy strictly... without the elder's slash, Tiamat would still be invincible.

"Beast has unfolded the horns and wings on her back! She... she wants to fly out of the Netherworld, back to the surface?!" the doctor's surprised voice.

Still, no one responds because everyone can see it, the magic dragon's body is simply too colossal, every move is impossible to ignore.

However.

Just as the giant wings unfold dramatically in the distance, an incredibly splendid yet deadly blade light slices through, cutting from top to bottom, the trajectory line precisely cutting across the surface of the dragon form.

The next moment, that Skeleton Knight already grips his great sword, appearing on the other side.

"The late clock has pointed to thy name. I shall, driven by Celestial Mandate, strip thee of thy wings!" The words of immense dignity sound like a pronouncement.

No need for the name of the Crown, the strongest evidence should be entrusted upon this slash.

Sacrificing the Crowned Spirit Base as the cost, the swing of this slash results in the huge demon dragon's newly opened horns and wings suddenly crashing heavily beside its massive body, making a dull, thumping noise, raising a cloud of dust.

"Beast's Spirit Base mode has changed..." The doctor, who was just shouting, appears astonished and murmurs on the other end of the communication, "Not only cutting off Tiamat God's horns and wings, but also attaching the 'Concept of Death' to it!"

"What does that mean?" Fujimaru Ritsuka is surprised, quickly asking.

She sharply feels this is the crucial point, maybe they're all waiting for this opportunity to come... have they finally gathered the victory conditions?

"Although Tiamat God's size is still enormous, she's already in a normal Spirit Base mode! In other words, there is now the possibility of defeating her!" Dr. Roman shouts excitedly, relieved by seeing the hope at last.

"Romani! The Spirit Base Core's lock is successful! Not in the heart, it's in the head... attack her mind body!"

In the communication, Da Vinci's voice also sounds timely.

"Hahahahaha, finally awaited! This half year, this king endured patiently until now."

Gilgamesh laughs heartily, seemingly venting all the frustrated air in his chest, he swings his hand boldly, energetically speaking –

"It is time to derive the answer, let's start the last battle of the Divine Era World!"

"Aaaaaa——"

The huge demon dragon opens its bloodthirsty mouth, yet the sound emitted is not an earthshaking roar but a monotonous cry, incomprehensible in its meaning.

"No mistake, this is a truly genuine opportunity!" Merlin also changes his previous frivolous expression, saying with utmost seriousness.

"Understood! Seniors, please give me instructions!" Mash nods vigorously, raising the Cross Shield in her hand with a tender shout, filled with determination.

Fujimaru Ritsuka also reacts promptly, she nods vigorously, ready to speak, when suddenly she hears a distant sword clang as if it settles the air of the Netherworld!

The maiden turns her eyes to see the robed Immortal raising his hand lightly, just as his five fingers close, a pitch-black Demon Sword rotates down from the Netherworld above!

Like a boomerang being thrown back...

The sword hilt lands precisely in his hand.
