Chapter 62 - The Beast of Bashmu!

The mysterious Holy Grail lay hidden in an unknown space, absorbing vast amounts of Mana, but it wasn't enough.

*Buzz~*

A pure soul energy drifted into this space, and the Holy Grail's will instantly became agitated, like a shark smelling blood! Countless dark shadows surged out, devouring that portion of soul energy immediately.

Chomp, chomp... ugh... not enough... too slow, too slow.

The Holy Grail's unsatisfied voice echoed through the space, as shadows darted around, intertwining into countless unknown terrors.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

"You two!"

Semiramis gripped the armrest, glaring at the two rude individuals before her! How many years had it been? Whether in her lifetime or after becoming a Heroic Spirit! No one had ever dared to speak to her like that!

"If that's how it is, then let's all die together!"

Semiramis gritted her teeth, raising her hand abruptly! She frantically drew upon the Mana originally intended for creating Noble Phantasms! Without her Master's Mana supply, it was no longer realistic for her to control such powerful Mana from the Geomantic Vein; ultimately, her efforts were in vain! But she still had a trump card! Even if she died, she would drag a few others down with her!

"Bashmu! Come forth!!"

*Buzz!!*

A massive magic circle unfolded in the air! At this moment, Semiramis sacrificed another one of her Noble Phantasms, a Noble Phantasm called [Wine of the Arrogant King]!

The white poisonous mist created by the Noble Phantasm surged frantically towards the magic circle, and after being swallowed by it!

*Roar!!*

A roar, accompanied by rolling green toxic breath, erupted from the magic circle!

"Damn it!"

Mo Shuying quickly understood Semiramis's intention! This woman truly lived up to her reputation as a venomous woman! Her heart was truly black! She was still causing trouble even in death!

"Hahahahahaha! Bashmu! Let the whole world tremble!!"

Semiramis let out a frantic cry! The next second, a gigantic head emerged from the magic circle! The terrifying, dragon-like, snake-like head opened its massive maw and swallowed Semiramis along with more than half of the throne in one gulp!

Gulp!

With a swallowing sound, Bashmu rotated its terrifying vertical pupils, looking at the two people at the doorway.

"Emiya, go! Get help."

Mo Shuying pushed Emiya. Emiya Shirou glanced at Bashmu with a panicked look, then gritted his teeth! He turned and ran!

It wasn't that Emiya Shirou was a coward who feared death; rather, he understood that he had to get this message out.

*Roar!!*

Seeing one of them run, Bashmu turned its head.

A part of its body had yet to emerge; its lower half twisted, slowly wriggling out. Its massive mouth opened! A stream of green breath spewed directly forth!

*Boom!!*

The green breath was like smoke, like a tide! Wherever it passed, even stones corroded instantly! Mo Shuying knew that this creature before him was a divine beast among the Phantasmal Beasts! Its strength was absolutely not to be underestimated! Even a Heroic Spirit would die instantly if caught in this green mist!

"Wind King Hammer!!"

Mo Shuying stood at the doorway, raising his sword high! A truly full-power strike! Terrifying Mana formed a sword-wind that blasted out!

*Boom!!*

The terrifying sword-wind directly tore through the green toxic breath! It was swept back and slammed into Bashmu's face!

*Thud!*

*Roar!!*

Bashmu cried out, crashing into the wall behind it. Under its massive body, the wall was incredibly fragile!

At this moment, Mo Shuying felt a little strange about his own sword strike. It seemed unusually powerful.

Even with Mo Shuying's full-power strike, the opponent was a divine beast! The pinnacle among Phantasmal Beasts, it shouldn't have been affected this much, but it had happened.

Mo Shuying glanced at Saber's information on his second template, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Innate Skill: Giant Beast Hunter A

Significantly increases self-damage when fighting giant beasts.

"So that's what it is!"

Mo Shuying knew that because legendary Great Britain was often attacked by giant beasts, King Arthur bravely fought and defeated them, eventually gaining this characteristic. Fighting giant beasts would provide a significant boost.

The head of this Bashmu alone was as large as a truck, and its body hadn't fully emerged yet, but it already filled nearly half the room—a true giant beast!

*Roar!!*

Bashmu shook its head and got up. The previous attack hadn't even broken its scales, but it had successfully enraged it!

*Roar!!*

Bashmu opened its mouth, and a stream of green liquid spewed out! Towards the ceiling!

*Hiss!*

The ordinary roof couldn't withstand the corrosive power of the venom; almost instantly, a huge hole was eaten through it!

"Roar!"

Immediately after, Bashmu emerged directly from the hole, its slender body twisting upward, its final tail finally breaking free from the summoning magic circle! Complete summoning achieved!

"Roar!!"

Having burst through the roof, Bashmu coiled itself, its furious roar echoing through the sky, announcing its arrival to the world! And the wrath it was about to unleash!

"Wow! What a huge monster! What's happening?!"

Astolfo flew past on his Hippogriff. His hand was slightly injured from gripping the Red Plains Hound.

At the time, Red Archer hadn't disappeared yet. To help Luvia and the others defeat the demons, Astolfo had to endure a minor injury to stop the Red Plains Hound.

They had just eliminated the last demon, which had suddenly lost power. Astolfo flew ahead to scout, and as soon as he flew past the outer wall, he saw Bashmu emerging from the roof!

Astolfo controlled the Hippogriff to approach. As they got closer, he could feel the Hippogriff's unease! After a quick reassurance, he continued to approach, only to see Bashmu staring in their direction! Suddenly, its eyes widened!

"Buzz!"

A cold glare flashed! The Hippogriff stiffened and became motionless!

"Hey, hey, hey!"

The Hippogriff's body stiffened and began to free-fall. Astolfo's repeated shouts were useless. Finally, just before it hit the ground, he recalled the Hippogriff!

"Thud!"

Astolfo, having recalled the Hippogriff, landed heavily on the roof of the Matou Residence. Before he could even steady himself, his vision went black! A massive, spiky snake tail came crashing down on him! Astolfo shrieked and barely managed to scramble away from the attack, but the tail shattered the roof, causing Astolfo to fall through with the broken debris!

"Ah!!"

Falling, Astolfo was about to adjust his posture for landing when suddenly!

"Whoosh!"

Mo Shuying sped forward, rushing over the broken roof tiles!

He scooped up the small Astolfo, then Mo Shuying gave a powerful leap, launching himself off the roof. Without waiting for Astolfo to speak, he immediately let go, his hands gripping his sword mid-air!

"Slash!!"

"Boom!"

A massive release of Mana, forming a golden sword energy that slashed out. But Bashmu extended its tail, blocking the attack with its spiky, barbed tail.

"Mo Mo! What is that thing?!"

Astolfo, having landed messily, yelled at Mo Shuying. At that moment, more people jumped onto the rooftop.

"This is!"

Emiya Shirou and Saber jumped up, followed by the flying Miyu and Illya. The next second, a large hand clawed its way up from below, shattering the wall as it leaped up and landed heavily—Berserker! Heracles, dragging Leonidas, arrived!
