Heroic Spirit: I, Shinji, have tried my best.

“…Hehe…Hehehahaha!”

Outside the atmosphere, a white beam of light like a meteor shot out, but no sound could be heard in the thin air here.

Because this is a place that can be called the [universe]...

Not only is it very far from the surface of the planet, but also because of the lack of oxygen and almost zero [elves], most species cannot survive here normally.

However, the divine species are obviously not included in them.

Artosh, who was blown away by Shinji's attack, found the right moment, flapped his wings, and slapped the attack in front of him to the side, then he pulled away and dodged.

Glancing at the surrounding scene, the God of War suddenly laughed happily...

This was the first time he chose to avoid an attack... It wasn't that he couldn't withstand this attack, but he didn't want to waste time here, because just now... the ending that seemed to have been determined in his eyes began to blur again...

"So the real problem lies with you, you special human!"

So that’s how it is, that’s right!

It turned out that he had made a mistake...

At the beginning, when he felt that the answer to [The Strongest] was beginning to emerge, he was filled with hope... hoping that the challenger he couldn't see clearly could really accomplish an unprecedented feat.

However, in the following battles, the originally vague future gradually became clear to him, and the final victory seemed to be inevitable, which made Artosh, who had just been excited, suddenly feel lost.

Are Gilgamesh and the others weak? Of course not.

Each of those humans holding strange weapons had incredible strength. Even under the attack just now, he felt several other equally impressive powers...

With such strength, one can defeat almost anyone in the world, including gods!

But... that's not what he wanted...

No matter how strong the enemy is, he who has the concept of "strongest" will only be stronger than the opponent. It's like when you are playing a game, if you are told directly that the winner of the game can only be you, then no matter how strong the opponent is, it will be difficult to arouse people's interest.

This is not good news for a war lover, because a war without suspense is not a war, it is just a massacre...

Except... this man...

"…That's it…You who frequently go beyond the rules of the game are the real challenger!"

Before he finished speaking, Artosh instantly turned into a dark purple stream of light and rushed towards the planet below... At this moment, he couldn't wait to face the battle that was truly full of unknowns!

……

"boom!!!"

On the surface of the planet, there is still that battlefield, and there is still that ruined temple...

A meteor surrounded by purple-black flames fell rapidly, accompanied by a deafening sound, and an exaggerated shock wave instantly spread outward.

The temple walls that had long lost the blessing of the magic were directly turned into a candle in the wind and were swept away, leaving only the ground under the feet that was almost shattered into powder and still standing there strangely.

The originally magnificent temple has now turned into a spacious platform. This has never happened before...

Artosh took a step forward from the center of the explosion, and a terrifying oppressive force burst out from his body. Even the dust in the air that blocked his vision was pulled back to the ground by this force, revealing his sturdy figure.

Four other people also appeared at the same time.

Gilgamesh crossed his arms, Artoria held a silver-white spiral spear, Jeanne d'Arc held a sword in one hand and a spear in the other... and Shinji wrapped his arms in black mud...

Artosh glanced around casually with a slight smile on his face:

"Hey... It seems that you have already discussed the tactics, so can we start fighting next..."

“… Stop bragging. Your enemy from the beginning to the end has only been me. I don’t need any tactical time to deal with you.”

"..."

"Heh... I hope so..."

Four people surrounded Artosh from four corners respectively. Naturally, Gilgamesh, who was always proud, would not admit this situation of many against one.

But he will not hold back at all from now on.

Those who know know:

When Saber put down her sword, when Archer stopped holding the bow, when Berserker regained his senses, when Assassin gave up hiding...

If this happens, please rest assured that they are not looking down on you and are ready to let you go, but this is when they really start to get serious...

"You've already seen the power that cannot be resisted, but you still want to challenge me, weakling... Come on!"

The golden pupils in the God of War's eyes widened instantly, and he put away his contempt. He pressed his legs down and showed a posture of serious fight.

At the same time, the four people who were already ready also set off instantly and rushed towards the God of War fearlessly.

The God of War was a little confused by the simple and rough charge without any change, and threw another punch at Shinji who was coming towards him:

"…You still don't learn your lesson?"

"Then you are wrong..."

A blood-red pupil with strange patterns on it spun rapidly in Shinji's eye socket. Facing a punch that was so fast that it was beyond his reaction limit for the second time, it was not impossible to dodge it...

"boom…"

The punch missed, leaving only a sonic boom in the air. Artosh looked at Shinji in surprise.

Is this...prediction?

"Don't treat real humans as inferior creatures that are not intelligent enough!"

Shinji, who narrowly dodged the attack by sticking to the extreme position, did not focus his energy here. Instead, he rolled out a black thorn made of the Tao-Seeking Jade and took the opportunity to stab the opponent's vital point.

At the same time, in another direction, Artoria launched a charged attack with the silver-white holy spear in her hand, attacking the vital points of the God of War...

However, this thing that happened almost in an instant was still seen through by the opponent. He ignored inertia and strangely retracted his fist. Then he blocked the attacking fists with one hand each and stopped them in mid-air.

Before the two could react, two purple-black magic circles appeared directly under their feet.

"...?"

"boom!"

The dazzling lightning struck the two men directly along the clouds in the sky. Knowing that the enemy's attack was powerful, they quickly dropped their weapons and dodged backwards, but they were still hit by the explosion.

Shinji flipped over in the air and saw the spear held in the hands of the God of War... and the black thorn that was broken into two...

"..."

666, he really didn't even bother to act anymore, he just broke Qiu Dao Yu Gan right away...

"I never said I couldn't use magic..."

Artosh spread the eighteen pairs of giant wings behind him, and a huge black magic circle lit up above everyone's heads. It was very similar to the attack of the Flügel, but even more powerful!

But the next moment, a chain came over like a snake, especially those wings that seemed like a medium. The magic circle in the sky also stopped with the restraint of the [Chain of Heaven].

"It's this strange chain again, but it can't hold me back now."

"Just this moment is enough!"

After discarding the Holy Spear, Artoria took out the Holy Sword instead. The golden sword light wrapped around the sword, and in an instant she slashed forward several times, but they were all easily avoided by the opponent.

"Get out of the way! Saber."

A golden spear flashed by and shot towards the enemy in between Artoria’s attacks. The moment Artosh saw the weapon, he became serious...

He immediately stopped the stalemate with the girl in front of him. The space around his body twisted, and the chains that had been tightly binding his body loosened, and Saber's holy spear fell down.

"That weapon..."

Artosh used his strange spatial ability to instantly move to another place, and looked at the spear that had just been shot at him curiously... He actually saw a hint of danger from it...

"Could it be... a weapon specifically designed to kill gods?"

"That's a good idea... But I have plenty of weapons like this that are specifically designed to deal with you in my treasury."

Jin Shanshan walked over with a proud look on his face, and then, as if to prove what he had just said, he opened several light gates at once, and a strange-looking treasure emerged from each light gate.

The God of War only took a glance and found that those weapons did have a hint of godslaying properties... However, there are many things that can be used to kill gods, but not all gods can be killed.

"It seems that your strength is all placed on these strange weapons... But as I said before, the theorem of [The Strongest] cannot be broken by just this..."

"That's natural. After all, it is impossible to be defeated if one possesses the [Strongest Divine Essence]. However, there will always be some flaws..."

Upon hearing this, Artosh looked at Shinji, and the moment he turned his head, a familiar feeling came from the other person. This discovery made him open his eyes wide again.

At the same time, he also saw that the black liquid that was originally wrapped around the other person's arm had now almost covered half of his body...

"That thing is..."
