Chapter 211
Moreover, could they really hold out until that time?
This was already the last day, right? How would Gilgamesh block Tiamat's advance, and how would he restore the hearts of the people that were about to crumble?
【
Silent despair spread through Uruk—
Severed limbs, smoke and fire everywhere.
The soldiers rested in silence, ready for a new round of battle at any moment.
Their families silently bandaged their wounds, hiding the sadness and heartache in their hearts.
There was no happiness or smiles on their faces; there was only numbness.

Naruto World
Hiruzen Sarutobi lowered his eyes; he had truly felt this kind of despair, no... the despair he had experienced was far less than a corner of what was on the screen.
The despair he experienced could still be changed, but here...
【
Despair, grief, wailing, suppression, loneliness.
Gilgamesh took all of this in...
He stepped out and stood in the center of the great hall, "Proclaim to all citizens remaining in Uruk!"
The old, the weak, the women, the children, and countless soldiers with numb expressions showed fluctuations; they all looked toward the King above the great hall.
Gilgamesh's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest; his voice was calm, "Half a year ago, the Demonic Beast Front began construction."
"This King once told you that you could run away, you could indulge in pleasure."
"You could also lament your fate and cast yourselves into the Underworld."
"But you all expressed that you would fight to the end; you all decided to struggle against it despite knowing the outcome."
"Without a doubt, Uruk is a happy city, including its history, its life, its people, and this King included!"
"This King will say it again: Uruk has already been destroyed; this is an unchangeable fact!"

【Ishtar: "That's not how you mobilize people, you Goldie! Aren't you just making people despair?!"】
【The Young Emperor: "It seems this King is quite poor in this regard, Prime Minister Honest."】
【Honest: "That is correct; this King is far inferior to you."】
【Akainu: "Such a statement will only lead to the collapse of military morale, but it is also a fact; it is truly normal."】
【Junko Enoshima: "Eh eh eh, is this King also from the Despair Sect~ That would be so interesting."】
Einzbern Family
"Gilgamesh... does he also not understand the human heart?", Artoria was somewhat silent.
With such destruction, why would that Hero King not feel heartache, and why would the Hero King not think of changing all of this?
Artoria was silent, a sense of incomprehension and a trace of confusion rising in her heart.
It was also destruction... why was the Hero King perishing while resisting the enemy, while her Great Britain was destroyed by her own hands...
How exactly does one become a good King...
Across the Myriad Worlds
Everyone was also shocked by Gilgamesh's hardcore statement; was he truly prepared to give up on everything?
Everyone recalled Gilgamesh's ability again: the Star of Omniscience and Omnipotence.
He saw through the future and also saw his own end.
A pathetic ability...
Everyone lamented for Gilgamesh and no longer held any hope, after all, even this King had said it himself...
But in the next moment, Gilgamesh's voice on the screen nearly pierced everyone's eardrums!
【
The King reached out his hand and shouted loudly, "But you need not be sad. The reason is that as long as one person remains, the dawn of victory can be welcomed."
"The posture of our lives will be forever engraved in his memory!"
"Even if we die in the end, even if we leave no descendants, humans will leave their will in the hearts of others!"
"This is the bond of power that humans possess! It is not blood, but the inheritance of intellect!"
"It is the chain of life! The destruction of Uruk does not mean our destruction!"
A breeze brushed their faces, and sunlight swept across their pale, numb cheeks; they couldn't help but widen their eyes, a light called hope flashing within them.
Their clothes rustled, and the scarlet snake-like pupils reflected everyone's figures; Gilgamesh's voice became increasingly passionate!
He pointed at Uruk, pointing at all the citizens of Uruk!
"We shall shine in the dawn of victory! Use this light to connect to a new era!"
"Listen well, my elites!"
"We shall negate the God of Origins at this moment and open a new era for humanity!"
"This is truly the battle of farewell to the gods! Offer your lives to the King!"
"In order to convey the glory of our Uruk to future generations!"
"Uruk endures forever!!!"
"Uruk endures forever!!!"
"Uruk endures forever!!!"
Tears flowed uncontrollably; the fire in the hearts of all the citizens of Uruk burned fiercely, and they raised their arms and shouted, their voices resounding through the clouds!
They had long known their fate; from the moment they parted ways with the gods, they knew they would die...
They did not blame the King for choosing to part ways with the gods, for leading them to war against the gods, for being disrespectful to the gods, even if they knew it meant death.
But they only felt it was a pity, only felt ashamed before the King; as the King's people, why not die in a blaze of glory!
To die so plainly, wouldn't that be a shame to the King?!
They were the people of Uruk, the people of the King!
As long as one person remembered their figures, Uruk would endure forever!
Yes, that's exactly it!!!
This mythical epic battle, if their figures could also accompany the King...
Thousands of years later, if this epic mythical battle could also appear in history books...
When future generations opened these memories sealed by history... when people knew that they had opened a brand new era with the King.
When their figures were remembered once again...
That... that would be so brilliant and magnificent!!!
Oh, King!!!
If your story can be passed down, then let us meet in the distant future!!!
"Uruk, endures forever!!!"

【Naruto Uzumaki: "... Uruk, endures forever!!!"】
【Luffy: "Ahhhhh, why can't I stop my tears from flowing? So moving, so heroic, what exactly is this feeling..."】
【Alien God: "A true King, true people... this is what humanity should look like. So that's how it is; the species on that planet is still worth existing."】
【Doctor Strange: "Knowing their fate yet still embracing it, true warriors."】
【Erwin: "That's right! The sacrifices of those who died need to be remembered by the living! Fight, soldiers!"】
【Iskandar: "Hahahaha! Hero King, this King is truly impressed by you this time! Not being born in the same era as you is both a misfortune and a blessing!"】
【Blackbeard: "Ze-hahahaha! So that's it! King Gilgamesh! You are a born leader!"】
Across the Myriad Worlds
Everyone's scalp tingled, and a bone-chilling cold rushed from the soles of their feet to their crowns.
They all watched this scene in shock and stagnation.
Those humans were clearly going to die... clearly knowing they were going to die, why, why did they erupt with such terrifying momentum?!
Across the Myriad Worlds, countless viewers could not understand, nor could they identify with it.
But some had already clenched their fists; their eyes were no longer looking at the dead, but at warriors, warriors worthy of being engraved in their hearts!!!
This is humanity, this is the courage of humanity, this is the resolve of humanity!!! ===== CHAPTER 213 =====
