【Inner·Dead Sea Scrolls】

【Quality: World's Rare Treasure (Red)】

【Type: Special, Ritual, Trans-dimensional】

【Description: An undiscovered hidden page of the Dead Sea Scrolls circulated in a certain world, recording the mysteries of the Creator and the ultimate end of life.】

【Effect: By combining the Apostle of Adam and the Apostle of Lilith, completely dissolve the AT Field, fuse all humans of this world together, and create the sole life form·?】

The delicate and petite face of Baimian was, at this moment, stretched to a degree that was almost distorted; she had not fully achieved her goal, but the sudden appearance of Ryougi Shiki—no, Root Shiki—made her immediately realize that she had become a target of the Inhibitory Force.

Root Shiki was a hero born in response to the situation, the very existence capable of killing her directly and ending her plan.

She had long since secretly snatched a portion of the Black Mud and forcibly polluted the Berserker at the very start to serve as a contingency; since the two most powerful Servants from the Fourth and Fifth Holy Grail Wars were both under her control, she had already seized the momentum.

As for the rest, besides toying with those worm-like fellows, it was to deliberately lure Tao Baibai into slaughter and combat; once Tao Baibai went through all sorts of hardships to seize victory in the Holy Grail War, she would then activate the Human Instrumentality Project, turn everyone, including Tao Baibai, into "orange juice," and become the sole 【Lilin (Human)】 herself.

This was the part belonging to 【Flesh】 within Baimian's 【Ladder of Spirit and Flesh】, although the 【Path of Spirit】—which she had previously attempted to use to obtain the qualifications to become the Shaman King through the Taishan Fujun Festival—had been stolen.

But Baimian had already prepared a backup plan.

She knew that in Tao Baibai's hands, there was a 【Void Core】 that the 【King of the Highest】 had tampered with!

Everything was like a drama of fate, with the final spotlight shining upon her and Tao Baibai.

Both spirit and flesh had already come to this world.

And the Main Mission in this world was actually a Holy Grail War capable of opening the way to the 【Root】.

Such an arrangement simply made Baimian feel the magnificent might of Heaven revealed clearly before her.

She firmly believed that she saw more clearly and further than Tao Baibai; this arrangement, without a doubt, held a Destiny in the dark, destined for her to become a god in this world!

The thought fluctuations in Baimian's mind did not affect the hexagonal AT Field before her; this ability firmly separated her from Gilgamesh and Root Shiki.

Even though they were only separated by a distance of a few dozen meters, 【Heart】 and 【Heart】 could never approach one another.

Baimian slit her own throat, her body floating in the air as blood dripped continuously; the Spirit Body fox behind her flickered in and out of existence, ready to swap positions with her at any time.

Meanwhile, Gilgamesh's face was twisted as he looked back at Baimian in the air.

"Kotomine Kirei, what have you done, you wretch?"

Gilgamesh looked at the Black Mud covering his body; this was not at all the kind of thing found in the Holy Grail.

Baimian lowered her eyelids, looking at the Hero King who held himself in such high regard and was so arrogant and self-centered that he even denied 【All the World's Evil】.

Naturally, she would not place all her plans on attempting to manipulate the Greater Grail via the "backdoor" after seizing Kotomine Kirei's Destiny.

Baimian had long since obtained 【All the World's Evil】 from the Infinite Dimensional Space in advance and had performed a "Wish" and modifications upon it at the Goddess's place.

Just like how the Berserker was directly covered and polluted, this portion of Black Mud was a wish of evil corruption specifically designed to pollute divine existences.

Various images appeared before Gilgamesh's eyes: those ordinary humans without any special power, bit by bit, using so-called technology, science, and knowledge to plunder the legends belonging to gods and heroes.

And stripping away 【Mystery】 piece by piece.

Humans began to use 【Science】 to explain everything, transform everything, and prove everything.

Mystery faded away, and the world began to become unrecognizable.

A violent thought arose in Gilgamesh's heart; he was not that 【Xian Wang·Ji Er Jia Mei Shi】, the King who allows, the King who bears.

But likewise, who was qualified to become the King's subjects was for the King himself to choose!

Within his ruby-like pupils, the violence rose and could no longer be contained.

A flash of light appeared in Gilgamesh's right hand, and a golden sword with an extremely unique design appeared.

The golden hilt was arc-shaped, and the blade was composed entirely of three self-rotating cylindrical blades; this was a divine sword that transcended the form of an ordinary 【Sword】.

Scarlet Magic Power lit up from the sword's body, and pitch-black cracks immediately appeared in the space. 【Ea】, the sword that cuts the world, but in terms of power, it was even above 【Excalibur】.

"Gilgamesh, you are always like this, so arrogant, so... foolish."

Baimian spoke softly; Gilgamesh possessed the strength to almost steamroll other Servants, but because of his arrogance, he was always slow to act, and even when he did, he was accustomed to crossing his arms and using the 【Gate of Babylon】 to project Noble Phantasms to attack.

He refused to easily display his true strength.

In various world lines, Gilgamesh's defeat mostly stemmed from this.

At this very moment, it was no different.

Baimian suddenly opened her arms and lunged at Gilgamesh.

Her speed was extremely fast, and in an instant, she appeared before Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh gripped Ea tightly and turned to slash, but just as the blade was raised, an invisible AT Field had already appeared before him.

Two arrogant people unwilling to accommodate one another experienced a phenomenon of estrangement where interaction was absolutely impossible.

Gilgamesh watched as his Ea cut through space, but the invisible barrier before him still remained.

Pfft!

The blood at Baimian's throat had almost stopped flowing; she was relying entirely on Witch Power to support her movements.

With a look of madness, Baimian did not resist at all, but instead opened her arms.

"Come, Gilgamesh, under the Inhibitory Force of the world's continuation, you who are polluted by the Root and human hearts, the Apostle of the Demigod, and I, the Apostle of the mad, selfish humans, let us fuse~"

Baimian spread her arms, as if muttering in a trance.

The next moment, on the ground flashing like ripples, countless characters lit up; that was the ultimate secret of another world.

Symbolizing the beginning of humanity.

The 【Inner·Dead Sea Scrolls】 began to activate.

Crack, hum~

The sound of the AT Field shattering was as crisp as glass, but Gilgamesh, who had broken through this layer of barrier, found only emptiness before him.

That "Kotomine Kirei" had transformed into a young girl in white robes, and in the next moment, with a 'pfft' sound, before his Ea could strike, she turned into liquid and splashed all over him.

A massive amount of imagery and a massive amount of will began to appear.

Gilgamesh felt as if he had seen another future, a future even more cruel than the current world.

【Mystery】 has completely vanished.

The Age of Gods and the age of fantasy have disappeared without a trace, becoming tall tales, and do not even exist in history.

Human history has completely transformed into the history of science and biology.

Such a thing...

At the same time, all the Magic Power and divine power in his body began to surge toward the ground below, and the light of the Dead Sea Scrolls began to project toward Heaven.

Mysterious characters began to appear in the sky.

Root Shiki held a short blade and came before these two madmen.

The Inhibitory Force of the world indeed possesses the choice and possibility of destroying humanity to allow the world to continue.

But likewise, the 【Inhibitory Force of Primates】 is avoiding this possibility.

【Root】 chose her to appear as a 【Hero】 precisely to cut through all of this.

In the 【Mystic Eyes of Death Perception】, lines of death appeared clearly, and the next moment, Root Shiki slashed down with her blade.
