Chapter 69: Chase Battle in the Sky!
Iskandar continuously tried to obstruct Gilgamesh, but unfortunately, the power of the Gate of Babylon was too overwhelming—it directly reduced all obstacles to dust!
Finally, Iskandar seemed to realize his efforts were futile and gave up.
A few dozen meters away in the sky, his movements gradually came to a halt. He turned the chariot around and locked eyes with Gilgamesh. One could clearly see the burning intensity of his fighting spirit in that gaze!!!
Now—the warm-up was over. What followed was the true face-to-face battle!!!
In Iskandar's eyes blazed fury—or perhaps it was the flame of war itself!!! His fighting spirit surged to its peak!!!
Gilgamesh had already begun activating the Gate of Babylon. If Iskandar didn't confront her head-on, that overwhelming power would destroy him from behind.
The only option left was a frontal clash.
Gilgamesh sat regally on Vimana, his eyes calm as they met Iskandar's.
"Why aren't you running? The cat-and-mouse game was getting a little interesting."
Iskandar was unfazed by Gilgamesh's imposing aura. On the contrary, his fighting spirit ignited further. A head-on confrontation—this was Iskandar's true strength!!!
Glory lies in distant lands—conquer it! Rule over the far-off world!!
At last, Iskandar activated the true power of the Noble Phantasm beneath him. The Gordius Wheel finally revealed its complete form. The bulls' roars became even more thunderous, and the lightning trailing behind the chariot grew blindingly bright!!!
"True Name Release, huh? Now this is getting interesting!!!"
Gilgamesh, too, revealed an eager expression. Golden lights—brilliant and intense—began to shimmer all over Vimana.
Iskandar pulled the reins. In an instant, the chariot, now blazing with endless lightning, charged straight toward Gilgamesh.
Of course, Vimana's speed was nothing to scoff at either. The Gordius Wheel could reach 400 kilometers per hour, but Gilgamesh's Vimana rivaled fighter jets—it was a match in speed and agility!
Still seated atop Vimana, Gilgamesh nimbly controlled hee flying vessel to dodge the incoming charge. Her eyes narrowed at Iskandar, now filled with fury.
"A fool who can only call himself king on land dares to soar through the sky with this king!? Die, you mongrel!"
In an instant, magical energy burst from Gilgamesh. Eight golden Noble Phantasms shot toward Iskandar, streaking with radiant trails!
But the True Name Released Gordius Wheel was not so easily caught! Empowered by Iskandar's magic, its speed surged! With breathtaking drifts, the chariot weaved past each of the Noble Phantasms one by one!!!
However, Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasms were no ordinary projectiles. Under his precise control, they altered their flight paths mid-air and continued their assault on Iskandar!
As they rapidly closed in again, Iskandar demonstrated extraordinary control as a Rider-class Heroic Spirit. He continuously drifted and rotated through the air—one dodge, two, three... until even the last Noble Phantasm was cleanly evaded!
Seizing the opportunity, Iskandar charged again! The Gordius Wheel surged forward! Vimana dodged once more, but at the moment the two passed each other—
Two massive lightning blasts burst forth from the Gordius Wheel!
The attack was terrifying! The electrified torrent nearly struck Gilgamesh!
But at the critical moment—a radiant shield of light emerged, instantly deflecting the lightning!
Boom! Boom! Boom!!!
The diverted lightning struck a nearby mountain, reducing massive rocks to rubble!!!
Even the chariot itself could unleash such overwhelming power!
"With an attack like that, you think you can stand against me!!?"
Gilgamesh sneered at Iskandar and placed her hand on Vimana's control mechanism. As magical energy surged into it, Vimana shot off with its legendary miraculous speed!
"So fast!!!!!"
Iskandar shouted aloud as the Gordius Wheel crackled violently with lightning, twin bolts like silver serpents racing toward Vimana's tail!
Yet Gilgamesh remained unfazed. He summoned two massive golden shields that radiated dazzling light!
Zzzzzzt!!!
The lightning strikes left two smoldering scorch marks across the shields, but Gilgamesh—safe behind them—was completely unscathed.
"Haha! This is truly entertaining! It's been a long time since I've had this much fun. Come at me again!!!!"
Iskandar, glaring fiercely from his chariot, once more commanded the Gordius Wheel—charging forward without hesitation!!!
???
Meanwhile, in the distance, Jeanne Alter was arriving at her chosen battleground.
"So, this is the place. Let's see who dares to come looking for me."
But just then—
A surge of black mud bubbled up before her!
The dark ooze began to take shape...
Angra Mainyu's figure emerged once more.
"Long time no see... my dark Heroic Spirit."
"Who are you?" Jeanne Alter asked, glaring suspiciously. For some reason, she sensed a strange aura from this figure—one eerily similar to her own.
"Haha. Feels familiar, doesn't it?" Angra Mainyu laughed. "That's because we're the same. Only I can save you."
"We're the same?"
"Exactly!!!"
"Don't screw with me!!!!!!"
Jeanne Alter immediately charged forward.
"Your existence is nothing like mine! I can see through it! If I was born from the Holy Grail, then my dark form came from memories!
But you—your form is born from being the source of all evil!!! We're not the same!!!"
"Hahaha, so you figured it out. That's unfortunate."
"What? Your power is only about equal to mine. How dare you claim you can defeat me?"
"I don't need to defeat you. As a blackened Heroic Spirit, as long as you remain—no, as long as you're still in Fuyuki City—I can obtain you!!!!!"
"What did you say!"
Suddenly, black mud erupted from the ground, encasing Jeanne Alter within a sealed space before she could react—it was too fast!
Inside the black ooze, bursts of dark energy exploded around her! Yet the enclosing mud remained firm and impenetrable, emitting thunderous reverberations.
"Jeanne, stop struggling! Before me, the embodiment of all the world's evil, your power will only be absorbed! Revert! Return to your blackened self—
Jeanne!!!"
