Kurumi Tokisaki's Planar Journey - Chapter 501
The remaining bullets were all deflected by Black Keys. “Nightmare” clearly captured Kotomine Kirei darting aside, hiding behind a broken wall.
As the gun barrel spewed fire, the wall crumbled, scattering stones! “Nightmare” immediately adjusted its aim!
Seeing such a perfect opportunity, Kariya Matou naturally wouldn’t let it slip by. Berserker charged forward, several Noble Phantasms scraping past his armor!
Cold sweat dripped from Gilgamesh’s forehead as he clutched his pierced abdomen, every wave of pain translating into pure rage!
The “Gate of Babylon” increased its output, but Berserker pursued relentlessly, forcing Gilgamesh to fight while retreating.
“Boom!~”
Under the combined firepower of all three, the Tohsaka estate finally collapsed into ruins!
A massive cloud of dust shot into the sky, but for these combatants, it was inconsequential.
Kotomine used a Command Spell to restore Gilgamesh to peak condition. Kurumi grimaced, reluctantly pulling “Nightmare” higher into the sky, using conventional ammunition for harassment.
Below, the battle between the Heroic King and the blackened Lancelot grew fiercer. Gilgamesh even considered unleashing EA again!
“Master, should you switch to your divine form?”
Kurumi frowned. The “Chains of Heaven” had a significant restraining effect on her and the current situation…
She gritted her teeth. “Alright! I can’t stand the thought of Gilgamesh getting away.”
“Prepare to take over ‘Nightmare.’ When the laser weapons cool down, prioritize killing Kotomine Kirei!”
The chibi Red Queen gave an “ok” sign. Kurumi opened the “Nightmare” cockpit from midair and jumped down!
Kurumi kept mentally repeating that Gilgamesh was her primary target.
When she opened her eyes, a flash of golden light passed through them! Her black combat suit transformed into divine garb, which was then tainted white by divine power.
Kurumi’s expression was slightly stiff in her divine form as if adjusting her emotions.
Breaking free from the emotionless state, her exquisite face twitched. Surrounded by divine light, the silhouette of the inverted tree began to form again.
Pointing at Gilgamesh, white divine flames ignited, their terrifying heat seemingly capable of melting his golden armor!
Gilgamesh tried to command the “Chains of Heaven” to bind Kurumi, but the golden ripples were erased with a wave of her hand!
Gilgamesh’s face darkened. Berserker seized the moment to attack again while Kariya, hiding in the woods, couldn’t bear the massive mana drain!
The death of a small portion of Crest Worms accelerated the devouring process of the others, making him feel his flesh being consumed, converted into mana, and drained by the Heroic Spirit!
Kneeling on the ground, the pain throughout his body was unbearable. His face contorted as several Crest Worms wriggled through his veins, seeking any flesh they could consume.
If this continued… he would die!
But he couldn’t die. He still had to win the Grail and save Tokiomi… there was so much he wanted to do!
“Thud~”
The white-haired youth collapsed in the woods, yellow leaves falling onto his back.
Amid his charge, Berserker’s black mist suddenly fluctuated wildly, and his steps slowed. Just as he was about to swing his sword at the Heroic King engulfed in white flames, he was struck by a heavy hammer weapon and sent flying!
Struggling in the rubble, he disappeared as a spirit.
A hunchbacked, bald older man appeared beside the white-haired youth in the woods. “Kariya, you’ve really disappointed me. But dying like this, I doubt you’ll be satisfied~”
His gaze turned to the battlefield, his eyes gleaming with unknown light.
Kotomine Kirei was in poor condition, having expelled the remaining bullets from his body. The pain from his nerves still hindered his movements.
Had that bizarre mecha not constantly harassed Gilgamesh, he might have been finished by now!
Fully aware of the disparity in their levels, Kirei dared not flee. He could only circle Gilgamesh and the divine lady’s battlefield.
Fortunately, that strange mecha only used regular bullets, which he could deflect with Black Keys. Occasionally, he would use high-speed movement to evade its fire range.
Kirei knew this was futile, observing Gilgamesh, enveloped in divine flames, seemingly defended by a Noble Phantasm.
Meanwhile, the “Divine Lady” kept attacking the golden ripples in the sky, clearly wary of whatever was within!
His eyes narrowed. Intervening in their fight would mean certain death, but the airborne mecha’s constant harassment was maddening.
Yet he couldn’t defeat it, relying on Gilgamesh’s deterrence!
The Red Queen monitored the cooling of the laser weapons. The double barrage on the bridge against the “Chains of Heaven” had depleted too much of the arsenal.
This wasn’t Marvel, with Umbrella’s logistical support. She couldn’t afford the extravagance.
They were even repairing “Nightmare” after battles, which was a headache.
Now, “Nightmare’s” conventional ammo was exhausted; even the spare rounds were nearly depleted.
She had to monitor Gilgamesh’s “Chains of Heaven” and be ready to entangle them, buying her master precious time.
Coldly watching Kirei flee, the Red Queen waited for the laser weapons to cool. She would kill him then!
On the battlefield below, divine Kurumi occasionally slapped golden ripples from the air, using divine power to smooth out spatial distortions forcibly!
Divine flames surrounded us, and a golden fluid formed on the ground like a special Noble Phantasm had melted!
“Hmm?”
Divine Kurumi hummed lightly. The “Chains of Heaven” tried to manifest, but she erased them with divine power!
“Enuma Elish!”
The wind pressure simulated space cracks, attempting to erase the divine flames from the armor!
Silver fragments were incinerated upon contact with the flames!
When the space around Gilgamesh shattered, countless fragments finally expelled the divine flames!
Without divine power, the flames extinguished. Massive spatial distortions surtowardards Kurumi as if to engulf her!
The divine light began forming the inverted tree, but the spatial distortions arrived first! The entire Tohsaka estate’s space shattered!
“Nightmare” ascended, targeting Kirei with auxiliary systems!
Evading the spatial collapse, the energy reactor rapidly charged the cooled laser weapons!
The left arm armor opened, and blue light formed in the small caliber cannon.
That glow symbolized death.
