Chapter 404 - New variety Demon Beast of surprise attack

Amakusa Shirou Tokisada has been monitoring Ibaraki-doji. If Ibaraki-doji went to help the other party, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada would immediately sense something was wrong, and ordered several Servants present to join forces to kill Ibaraki-doji, but he failed.

Ibaraki Doji is the only youkai who survived the battle with Abe no Seimei, so Ibaraki-doji is not so easy to kill.

The reason why Gilgamesh couldn't control with the Command Spell had actually been mentioned earlier, because Gilgamesh's summon method wasn't an ordinary Holy Grail War summon, so Gilgamesh didn't have a Command Spell on the back of his hand.

Then, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada smiled and nodded.

"You're right, since Ibaraki Doji didn't go to the enemy camp, so I didn't choose to stop her." Then, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada pointed to a mountain range not far from Babylon.

"That person fled to the mountain. According to Fuuma Kotaro's report, Ibaraki Doji joined a group of people to become robbers."

Do not think that in Mesopotamia there are no robbers, there are always people who are undisciplined, forced to kill and even like to kill, especially in this era of more than 2,000 BC.

Saying this, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada smiled helplessly.

Obviously a strong youkai, but now she's playing like a child, running to the mountains to become the leader of the bandits.

After hearing the news, Wu Ming was also slightly surprised by Ibaraki Doji's relaxed attitude.

"Then leave her alone for now. As long as she doesn't cause trouble for us, let her be the head of the bandits."

As long as Ibaraki-doji doesn't help the Demon Beasts, there's nothing to say.

"Where are the other Servants now?" Wu Ming asked.

"Leonidas is building the northern wall with the soldiers. After all, Leonidas was good at defense. Okita Souji and Tomoe Gozen protected the retreating residents of the other cities. As for Fuuma Kotaro…"

By the way, Wu Ming and Amakusa Shirou Tokisada saw the shadow at the same time.

A ninja hiding in the shadows glanced at the two of them lightly, then closed his eyes.

As expected of a famous ninja, he fits perfectly into the Assassin class.

"He's on standby. After all, the Demon Beast is resting, and there is no information to investigate." Amakusa Shirou Tokisada explained.

Wu Ming nodded, and then prepared to go out to help Okita Souji and Tomoe Gozen to cover the retreat of the residents.

"Then, I will go and help them first. Nothing important, so that's it."

After speaking, the white spear fell from Wu Ming's arm, and the white spear melted to the ground, turning into ripples, and divine beasts shot out of the ripples.

"Wuuu~"

Wu Ming rode Humbaba, Humbaba shouted, the ground automatically separated, and green vines appeared, enveloping Humbaba and Wu Ming.

"There should be a few cities left in the north. I will find it myself. Without further ado, I'll be leaving first."

Wu Ming's voice came from the vines, and then, the vines entered the cracked earth, and then the earth was covered, and no trace was seen.

"Is this the power of Humbaba's divine beast? It's very strong." Amakusa Shirou Tokisada praised.

"I will trouble you tonight, let's see if you can find the Demon Beast's lair." After that, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada looked at Fuuma Kotaro.

"Understood." After speaking, the figure in the shadow disappeared in an instant.

"The demon beasts are getting stronger and stronger, the casualties are increasing, the soldiers are fighting more and more, and the construction of the north wall must be accelerated." After saying that, Amakusa Shirou Tokisada returned to the room, and continued the process before Wu Ming's official business arrival.

....

Outside the city of Babylon, the earth split open, and huge vines emerged from it.

The vines spread out, and the figures of Humbaba and Wu Ming appeared, and then the vines returned to the earth, and the cracks in the earth merged again, and no traces were seen.

This is the ability Humbaba, as a jungle beast, can still do by manipulating the vines to move on the earth.

But only did this for fear of affecting the inhabitants of Babylon.

"Let's go there first, I remember there is a city that survived the attack of the Demon Beast group." After all, Wu Ming had information.

As for the location of the remaining cities in the north, Wu Ming had basically memorized them. His current thinking was that if he didn't meet Okita Souji and Tomoe Gozen, then Wu Ming was ready to cover up the evacuation of the town's people.

After all, now that the number of Demon Beasts at night had decreased, it was still possible to evacuate safely with the protection of the two Servants.

Wu Ming ordered, Humbaba got into action.

God really took good care of Wu Ming, he chose a city, and the city ahead was indeed the city where Okita Souji and Tomoe Gozen were retreating tonight.

Not far away, on the road that connected the cities, Wu Ming saw the light of the fire, the light of the sword...

And, human screams.

This time it was no longer Uridim, the red-haired lion, but countless blue reptiles.

The tails of these creatures are held high, and the poisonous needles on their tails sparkle even in the dark night, and purple poison flows over them, as if they are about to drip.

Countless Demon Beasts fiercely attacked the migrating humans. None of the people stabbed by the Demon Beasts with poison needles survived, and all of them died from poisoning.

Okita Souji and Tomoe Gozen quickly killed this Demon Beast, swords flew, and flames exploded. However, in the face of these countless Demon Beasts that only attack the population, the effect is a bucket drop.

"Humbaba."

"Wuu~"

After Wu Ming gave the order, Humbaba's feet gently stomped, and countless vines protruded from the ground, instantly surrounding all the Demon Beasts and residents.

Then, countless vines turned into sharp thorns, piercing through all the Demon Beasts, as if they could recognize Demon Beasts and humans.

In an instant, the entire battlefield fell silent.

...

The living people only pay their respects to the dead, because of the poison, people dare not touch the corpses, and then people continue their journey sadly.

Humbaba collected the corpses that had become poisonous bodies, and then Wu Ming used runes to burn these extremely poisonous corpses, of course, those Demon Beast corpses were also burned.

After all, highly toxic corpses are not easy to handle, and burial only pollutes the environment.

Okita Souji walked in the front, Tomoe Gozen in the middle, and Wu Ming walked at the end, the three of them working together.

"Many thanks, Lord Dragon Sage." Tomoe Gozen who was walking in the middle, slowly retreated backwards and spoke to Wu Ming.

"What is the situation now? Isn't it said that the demon beasts return to rest at night, why are there so many demon beasts moving around at night," Wu Ming asked.

"We don't know. We did not find them during previous investigations. As a result, a Demon Beast suddenly appeared. Then, you come. "Tomoe Gozen was a little sad, however, it was sudden, and many people died.

"Although there were Demon Beasts that attacked before, there were only a few or a few of them at that time. This is the first time I have seen a scene like today when a group of Demon Beasts attacked during the day." Tomoe Gozen continued.

"Let's protect these residents back to the north wall first. With Humbaba here, there won't be any problems tonight."

"Woooo~" Humbaba also called out in response.

"With Lord Divine Beast and Lord Dragon Sage here, I am also relieved." Tomoe Gozen also nodded.

In this way, the three Servants covered the surviving inhabitants and came to Babylon.
