Dully hair can be said to be Artoria's specialty, and almost all non-blackened versions of Artoria have this hair that rises high like an antenna.

Seeing Artoria's dissatisfied expression, Lu Xiao changed the topic with a haha: "It's not important, it's just an example." ”

"Disguise ......"

Quetzalcoatl didn't care about the banter between the two, and looked down in contemplation.

It took her a moment before she let out a breath, "No matter what happens to Tiamat's body, we still have to beat her disguise before we can force her out." ”

"Tiamat should still be waiting for Jin Gu to bring the Holy Grail back to her, it's not her heyday yet, it's the best time for us to defeat her in one go."

Seeing that the Feathered Serpent God was mentally prepared, Lu Xiao didn't say anything more.

After Artoria had basically regained his magical powers, the two of them said goodbye to Quetzalcoatl and rode their horses in the direction of the Warcraft front north of Uruk.

Seeing Lu Xiao and Artoria leave together, Ishtar, who had been hiding in the air before, finally landed.

"Koyatl, what kind of existence do you think that guy is?"

Ishtar looked a little puzzled: "From the shallow memory of this body floating vaguely, I roughly know that the era in which this little girl lived, it was a barren world of great origin and mysterious decline. ”

"If this guy named Lu Xiao and the body I rely on are old acquaintances, what did he fall in love with Alaya from the end of the Dharma era? Will he really be able to defeat Jin Gu and retrieve the Holy Grail? ”

Lu Xiao, who is good at concealment, did not show the slightest fluctuation of his magic when he got along with Ishtar and Quetzalcoatl.

The two goddesses could see the general strength of the dignified Artoria, but they didn't know anything about the mysterious Lu Xiao.

Quetzalcoatl shook his head: "I don't know, and I'm not interested in knowing." ”

"He's been sent by the Suppressive Force to assist us, and that's enough reason alone, we don't need to get to the bottom of the origins of our partners who fought together, and you don't want anyone to explore your secrets, do you?"

Ishtar sighed helplessly, and let his body lie flat and suspend in the air: "Yes, yes~ You are too rigid, isn't chatting just nonsense, I don't necessarily know his secrets, it's just boring to discuss." ”

Quetzalcoatl couldn't help but roll his eyes: "It's you who are too jumpy, but ......"

Recalling Lu Xiao's firm tone when he mentioned Tiamat's disguised body, Quetzalcoatl narrowed his eyes slightly: "At least I can be sure that he is definitely not as harmless as he seems on the surface, and underestimating him is likely to suffer a big loss." ”

……

After half a year of demonic beasts, the northern region of the city-state of Uruk has long been in shambles.

Riding Artoria's war horse across the Warcraft battle line, the two of them were presented with an extremely desolate scene.

When passing through the Warcraft front before, Artoria chose to detour through the mountains and forests, and did not know much about the situation on the frontal battlefield.

The tragic situation in Mesopotamia was only now truly revealed.

The great plains of the two river basins are dotted with abandoned villages, and houses destroyed by herds can be seen everywhere in the villages.

There were even dark red dried blood stains on the ground in some villages, but Lu Xiao and the others did not see any remaining bones, and their whereabouts naturally went without saying.

According to Matthew and Fujimaru's account, Jin Gu was last seen in the Temple of Blood, witnessed Gorgon's death, and then disappeared.

"Artoria, stop first."

Suspended between the abandoned city of Nipur and the Temple of Blood, Lu Xiao opened the eagle's pupil in the sky, and searched for Jin Gu's whereabouts through the traces of magic flowing in the air nearby.

Jin Gu can fly, which is a clue given by those who have been in contact with him.

This has reduced the difficulty of Lu Xiao's search work a lot, at least the demonic beasts will not step on the sky to disturb the flow of magic power, and there are only three possibilities for the traces of magic power that appear in the air.

Ishtar, Aeolus Pterodactyl, and Jingu as a search target.

Before leaving, Lu Xiao had already recorded the magic fluctuations of Ishtar and the Anemo God Pterodactyl, and first ruled out the traces left by the two, and the rest was naturally left by Jin Gu.

Lu Xiao's eagle pupil has the ability of clairvoyance, and because of the combination with eagle vision, after a series of mutations, he also gained a special vision to see the flow of magic power.

But the traces of magic he can capture are not permanent, and if the time interval is too long, Lu Xiao will not be able to trace the whereabouts of the target through the gradually dissipating traces of magic power.

The battle with Gorgun had just ended at noon today, and the remaining flight traces of Jin Gu were clearly presented in Lu Xiao's field of vision.

"I've been to the Temple of Blood first, and then I've ......"

Lu Xiao drew Jin Gu's course of action against the map, and the last traces he left behind only lasted to the northwest of the Warcraft front.

"Babylon?"

Babylon, the former capital of the city-state of Uruk, was abandoned by Gilgamesh half a year ago when the Warcraft Wave was just rising.

With the early warning of clairvoyance, Gilgamesh led the people to migrate south, avoiding the first wave of demonic beasts and retaining the strength of the city-state of Uruk to fight.

"Hmmm......"

Lu Xiao touched his chin suspiciously: "Why did Jin Gu stay in the abandoned old capital of Babylon?" And never left since? ”

'Is it ......'

Artoria turned his horse and galloped away in the direction of Babylon.

"Whatever his intentions, we'd better hurry up and not let him give the Holy Grail to Tiamat."

……

Due to the resolute execution of Gilgamesh's evacuation plan, the old capital of Babylon did not leave any valuable meat for the monsters, and the city was not devastated.

The buildings in the city, though mostly damaged, are at least much better than the city of Nippur, which was completely in ruins.

"Stop!"

When he approached the 500-meter range of Babylon City, Lu Xiao suddenly alertly stopped the war horse sprint and stood up from the back of the horse behind Artoria.

With his eyes glowing with a faint golden light, he looked into the city, and his eagle vision captured at least hundreds of life reactions.

"Rahmu, the number is close to 1,000, and it can't go any closer."

Although the Warcraft front was in tatters, there were still a certain number of guards left, and Lu Xiao wondered how these Rahmu had bypassed the defense line from the sea to the south and came to the ruined capital of Babylon.

'Walking through the mountains and forests? For what? Is there anything left to be nostalgic for in this abandoned old capital? ’

Ordering Artoria to stay on guard at high altitude for the time being, Lu Xiao landed on the ground, turned on his breath and accelerated on the plain.

Entering the abandoned city through the broken walls, a large number of Rahmu were found in the city, which seemed to wander aimlessly, but a closer look revealed that these Rahmu were all concentrated in the same direction.

Jumping onto the top of a high-rise building, Lu Xiao looked in the direction where Rahmu converged, and first saw a tall obsidian trispire.

The significance of this minaret is not important, what matters is what is happening under the three minarets.

A unisex beauty in a white robe with long green hair reprimanded nearby Rahmu, but no matter what he said, he received a uniform tilted head response, as if these Rahmu did not understand human language at all.

Without being reminded by others, Lu Xiao recognized this person's identity at a glance, he was the only person who had direct contact between the Demon God King and this peculiarity, the son of Tiamat who borrowed Enqidu's body - Jin Gu.

"Tsk!"

When Lu Xiao approached a certain distance, he happened to catch Jin Gu's displeased whisper through his keen hearing.

"After all, is it just a low-intellectual quantity product...... Listen, you just need to follow my orders and act, the most important rite of resurrection of Mother is imminent, don't do anything superfluous! ”

"Huh!"

A series of golden chains suddenly erupted in Jin Gu's hand, breaking through a house next to the spire, and Lu Xiao vaguely heard a frightened and weak scream coming from inside the house.

'There are humans in this city?' ’
