Chain Summoning!
Crimson Ares, also known as the Roman God of War Mars, was the first to descend.
Following that, the Divine Ancestor Romulus of Rome descended simultaneously.
Divine Ancestor Romulus was the son of the God of War Mars and Princess Silvia.
He conquered a series of nations including Greece, unified the Mediterranean coast, and founded the Roman Empire.
This elevated him to become one of Rome's three supreme deities reaching the heavens—the conceptual embodiment of Quirinus.
In other words, he was now the genuine supreme god of Rome.
He became the symbol of "civilization's development and expansion," representing Rome's transformation from barbarism to civilization in human history.
Now.
This supreme god of Rome descended powerfully in the Grand Servant class.
Only the immensely vast spiritual foundation of a Grand Servant could barely contain a portion of his power.
Together with the God of War Mars, he assisted Nameless in confronting the omnipotent great god Zeus!
Nameless exclaimed with delight, "Thank you, Divine Ancestor and God of War, for descending together. Please help me defeat Zeus!"
The grand summoning ritual had been crafted by over twenty Servants from Pan-Human History, along with his request to the God of Forging and the young version of Senji Muramasa.
But it was all worth it.
With two of the most supreme beings descending together, they could absolutely defeat Zeus!
"Of course, my Rome has long since conquered Greece. These mere Greek gods shall surely be defeated by me!" Divine Ancestor Romulus looked up at the colossal Machine God and snorted coldly. "Zeus, times have changed. The era belonging to you Greeks has been replaced by Rome!"
Greek civilization was indeed far more ancient than Roman civilization.
Unfortunately, its territory and legacy were confined to a tiny land.
After Rome's rise, it thoroughly conquered Greece.
Not just Greece.
Even ancient Egypt, ancient Israel, and others all bowed beneath the Roman Empire.
As the founding ancestor of the Roman Empire and a supreme god of Rome, he naturally had the right to mock the other.
"No, times have not changed! This is still the era of us Olympian gods!" Zeus roared in fury.
This was his Lostbelt—how could he tolerate being mocked by mere Rome?
Zzzzt—
Lightning flashed wildly.
The oppressive aura of the Lostbelt King wantonly enveloped the entire world.
Under this pressure, everyone struggled to bear the weight.
Even standing became extremely difficult, let alone fighting.
However.
Divine Ancestor Romulus lightly snorted. "Everyone, you are all Rome now!"
Behind him.
A luxurious, golden throne appeared.
It was the throne of Quirinus, the supreme god of Rome.
This was his divine authority, transformed from the Privilege of the Emperor through his rule over the Mediterranean.
The power of his divine authority instantly enveloped everyone present.
Under this authority,
Rome was the world itself!
The world was Rome.
Thus, human history was equivalent to Roman history!
With his formidable authority, the Divine Ancestor forcefully overturned Zeus's authority as the Lostbelt King!
Nameless and the others were all recognized by his authority as Romans, naturally free from suppression by the Greek Zeus!
"Ahhh, I am not Rome!" Caenis angrily shouted.
She, a proud Greek deity, was being treated as Roman by the other's authority—unacceptable!
Nameless quickly comforted her, "It's just role-playing. After we defeat Zeus, I'll treat you to croissants—all you can eat!"
With a great enemy at hand, they couldn't afford to reject such a powerful buff.
For this tsundere foodie, the phrase "all you can eat" instantly won her over.
After muttering a few complaints, she said nothing more.
Nero, with a fanatical expression, exclaimed: "Umu, with the Divine Ancestor present, Rome is destined to crush Greece!"
As the Roman Emperor, empowered by the Divine Ancestor's supreme divine authority, her strength instantly doubled and surged wildly.
Even the Machine Gods, she dared to confront head-on!
Without hesitation, the Divine Ancestor launched his attack: "Zeus, behold the might of Rome!"
[Nine Lives: Roman Style (NineLivesRoma)!]
Countless spear-like beams of light, resembling fists, wildly assailed Zeus's colossal mechanized form.
Colliding with thunderbolts, they erupted in dazzling radiance.
This ultimate Noble Phantasm originated from the War God Mars's observations of the great hero Heracles, which were then sublimated and enhanced.
Under the Divine Ancestor's execution, it was countless times more powerful than the mighty Heracles.
It actually shattered Zeus's external armor, injuring his true form for the first time!
Not only the Divine Ancestor.
The War God Mars also unleashed his strongest attack.
Fully releasing his [Sword of Mars], he joined the Divine Ancestor in piercing through Zeus's defenses!
"I am Zeus, the omnipotent god who governs all phenomena from the heavens. Damn you, Romulus, and Ares... no, Mars!"
The Omnipotent Great God Zeus grew increasingly furious. "To have injured the omnipotent me... what exactly are you?!"
"Detestable! By my authority, I shall reduce you to ashes!"
Since the Fourth Great Divine War, when he eradicated all adversaries and tampered with the divine cores of the gods.
He successfully fused the divinities of all gods, transforming into the Omnipotent Great God.
But now, he had actually been wounded by his opponents!
The onlookers instantly grew excited—
[Hahaha! The Omnipotent Great God Zeus's defenses have been breached. As expected, only Rome can truly rival Greece!]
[Do you even understand the saying "counters surpass heaven, special advantages defy gods"?]
[This grand summoning is truly impressive—two great deities descending and striking together! Nameless's desperate scheming was not in vain!]
[What are you staring at, Zeus? You are Rome too!]
[Alright, from today onward, I don't believe in Bodhisattvas anymore—I only believe in Rome! I am Rome too!]
...
In the living room.
Roya was beaming with laughter: "Divine King, times have changed! As expected, only the Divine Ancestor can counter Him!"
Anyone who plays games knows that type advantage trumps everything.
When dealing with undead monsters, using undead magic obviously won't easily defeat them.
But even if you cast holy healing spells, you can still take them down.
For the Olympian gods, Rome—which destroyed Greece and unified the Mediterranean coast—is equivalent to the holy element that counters the undead!
A natural counter!
Under the Divine Ancestor's buff, everyone in Chaldea is Rome!
At this moment, we are all Romans!
Zeus is left with the authority of the Greek gods but utterly incapable of threatening anyone.
"Otherwise, why go through all the trouble of summoning the Divine Ancestor?" Souma rolled his eyes.
The Fifth Lostbelt was dangerously perilous.
A bunch of Machine Gods hovering in the sky, plus ten million ordinary people at the level of Heroic Spirits—tell me, aren't you scared?
To break through the Lostbelt, he had been planning from the very beginning.
He preemptively inserted his alternate account, Senji Muramasa, under the Alien God's command.
This allowed him to assist the over twenty Heroic Spirits from Proper Human History who arrived early, collectively forging the [Sevenfold Linked Heroic Spirit Cannon].
As well as perfecting the conceptual armament [Black Barrel] and the grand summoning array.
After completing all these preparations,
The Heroic Spirits from Proper Human History who arrived early had essentially fulfilled their mission.
Next,
He just needed to take all these trump cards into his hands to defeat Zeus!
Without these advance preparations, how could he possibly conquer the Fifth Lostbelt?
Gilgamesh frowned slightly: "The Roman Empire that unified the Mediterranean coast... It shouldn't counter Uruk, right?"
His Uruk predated Rome by two thousand years.
After his death, the entire civilization began to decline.
Eventually, the ancient Mesopotamian civilization had no inheritors left.
Just thinking about it was frustrating.
The mighty, most ancient King of Heroes had become completely isolated.
This made Gilgamesh increasingly envious of Qin Shi Huang beside him.
The civilization of China had been passed down continuously from ancient times to the present, never interrupted!
"It might counter it a bit. Historically, Rome did rule over the region where Uruk was located." Roya said uncertainly.
Egypt, Greece, Israel—all were ruled by Rome for centuries.
As for Uruk, it was more oriented towards the East, so it's uncertain whether it was ruled or not.
Once conquered and ruled by Rome, it would inevitably bring about civilizational counters.
Qin Shi Huang said indifferently: "That's why China disdains being grouped with these nations as ancient civilizations."
What right do these civilizations—wiped out, unable to even pass down their legacy—have to be mentioned in the same breath as his China?
For example, the people living in Uruk now are the very ones who destroyed ancient Uruk.
The people living in Britain are also the races that destroyed ancient Britain.
In such circumstances, as the mighty First Emperor, he had always disliked being compared to these guys.
At the very least, only a civilization with an unbroken five-thousand-year legacy qualifies to be compared with him!
"You..."
Gilgamesh was momentarily speechless.
He wanted to refute, but the problem was that Uruk's history was too sparse—there was really no comparison!
Souma nearly laughed out loud watching the two of them.
Even a Grand-class Servant possesses a competitive spirit.
However, as a citizen of China, he naturally stood on China's side.
Poor Gilgamesh, you can just sulk alone.
...
In the video.
Facing Zeus's furious roar.
The Divine Ancestor Romulus's spear erupted with dazzling light: "O Sky God who seeks to enslave humanity, I shall tear apart this false sky!"
"My spear is Rome, and it stands here now!"
"All phenomena, all things, converge upon my spear—"
[Our Arms Open All Paths, Reaching for the Heavens (Per Aspera Ad Astra)!]
This was the sublimation of his concept of [Civilization's Development and Expansion] into a Noble Phantasm.
Tearing apart the world, pioneering civilization.
A pair of arms embodying the romance of one day reaching the stars and oceans.
A beam of light shot straight into the heavens, completely tearing apart the sea of thunder.
Revealing a brilliant starry sky.
Countless stars shimmered with light, echoing one another as beams of light descended.
"Galaxian Explosion!"
The Divine Ancestor burned his Grand Spirit Origin, unleashing his ultimate spear strike.
Like the Captain's planetary bombardment, it wantonly assaulted Zeus.
After the bombardment of stellar light.
Behind him, an enormous Rome manifested, transforming into the most powerful attack.
Crack~
Dense cracks suddenly appeared across Zeus's massive mechanical body.
The almighty great god now found his invincible defense completely shattered by the Divine Ancestor's Grand-burning strike.
In other words.
He had been granted the concept of death, revealing his health bar!
Zeus grew increasingly furious: "I can be injured? I can be damaged? Why!"
Unacceptable, unforgivable.
He only wanted to utterly destroy them!
At this moment.
Europa stepped forward, looking up at him and pleading: "Lord Zeus, please stop. You should bless those children who never give up and yearn for tomorrow, not curse them."Whether in Pan-Human History or the Lostbelt, you have always loved everyone, longing to save and protect.""
"But now, the time for parting has come, this is the time to let go of humanity, please let go!"
"As long as one can love and be loved, what difference is there between humans and gods?"
Even now, Europa clung to her last shred of hope for him.
Wanting him to return to the God King who loved everyone and was loved by all.
"No! A god who loves humans is merely a machine that will break. Only by not loving can one achieve eternity!"
Zeus coldly replied, "Moreover, Europa, I am not the Zeus you love. Therefore, disappear!"
Lightning flashed, madly striking toward the goddess who loved him most.
And Europa, facing this lethal attack, didn't evade in the slightest.
Instead, she showed a tragically beautiful smile, calmly welcoming death's arrival.
Nameless immediately raised the divine shield to block the fatal blow for her.
"You bastard, how dare you try to kill Grandma Europa! You've truly been enslaved by power and have no right to protect the world!"
Nameless roared angrily: "Mash, I'll handle defense, open fire and destroy him!"
He deployed the Athena Aegis, holding up a section of sky to block the endless lightning strikes.
"Understood! Please be careful, Senpai! Chronos Crown, beginning measurement of Machine God lifespan!"Mash unhesitatingly unleashed her Noble Phantasm, transforming once again into her black armored form, 'Measurement complete!" Senpai, please use a Command Spell!"
"Permission granted! In the name of Chaldea Master Fujimaru Ritsuka, annihilate Zeus!"
Nameless raised the [Athena's Shield] while simultaneously charging it with Command Spells.
After receiving the massive magical energy provided by the Command Spells, Mashu firmly pulled the trigger.
A black beam erupted from the gun barrel, shooting straight toward Zeus.
[Black Barrel (Barrel Replica)!]
With a single shot that ignored all defenses, it pierced straight through Zeus's massive Machine God form.
Even the almighty great god had his divine core shattered on the spot!
The audience erupted in cheers—
["We won! Even someone as powerful as the almighty great god Zeus has been defeated!"]
["Praise to Nameless, Mashu, the Divine Ancestor, and others - you've done magnificently!"]
["As everyone knows, Crown Position Saint Graphs are the strongest Noble Phantasms, and each Crown Position Servant burns theirs without hesitation!"]
["Tch, Zeus doesn't possess the slightest emotion - he wouldn't hesitate to erase even his own divine consort."]
["That's why Nameless mocked him for being enslaved by power, having long lost himself."]
["Speaking of which, did we just take down Zeus? Will the Lostbelt collapse directly?"]
...
The Fifth Lostbelt.
Starting from the Atlantic Ocean, where Odysseus commanded his forces in a frenzied siege that nearly wiped out Chaldea.
It was extremely perilous.
In the end, they had to sacrifice the Argo heroes to fight their way to the Starfall City.
Now that they had finally succeeded,
All the viewers couldn't help but feel deeply moved.
This journey had been countless times more difficult than overcoming eighty-one tribulations!
In the lens,
After Zeus was annihilated, Captain Kirschtaria's figure quietly appeared.
At this moment, this A-team captain stood silently in the temple, watching the battle.
Showing no intention of intervening.
"Not even Europa could influence your heart, Zeus. This must be the curse you bear."
Kirschtaria spoke with pity in his soft voice: "Even if we gathered all the functions of the interstellar fleet, we cannot defy the command of the Primordial Father."
"My dear friend, the current you is merely a clown placed on the stage."
"How tragic, Zeus!"
The Captain's words seemed to contain a series of mysteries.
This made the audience grow increasingly suspicious and uneasy.
Defeating Zeus had been too smooth, completely disproportionate to the previous difficulties. Could there still be some hidden plot?
The scene shifted back to Chaldea.
Da Vinci frowned while observing the collapsed Machine God: "The Lostbelt King has been eliminated, so why is the Lostbelt completely unharmed?"
After all, he was the core of this Lostbelt - once destroyed, the Lostbelt should inevitably head toward collapse.
But now.
Even after Zeus was eliminated, the Lostbelt showed no signs of disintegration.
"Be careful, the ultimate mastermind is about to appear!" Nameless suddenly warned with extreme seriousness.
His gaze was fixed on the sky.
Everyone followed his line of sight.
After Zeus's defeat, the dark clouds and lightning that had shrouded the sky completely dissipated.
Revealing the brilliant starry sky behind.
Beyond that, there was nothing!
Just then, a sudden anomaly erupted.
The entire sky abruptly split open, revealing a single eye burning with raging flames.
Yes, an eye larger than this interstellar urban mountain range!
Its size was incomparably massive, brimming with power capable of crushing everything.
Nameless spoke with unusually grave tone: "The true mastermind, the Primordial Father Chaos, has finally appeared!"
