Chapter 468 The deal with Jin Gu
The moment Jin Gu finished speaking, the group of monsters seemed to have received an order. They all opened their bloody mouths and rushed towards her, as if they wanted to tear her into pieces immediately. .
The shadow of the spirit base, summon!
At the same time, a spiritual figure wrapped in black mist appeared in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka again.
Then, the next moment——
"Pfft." A bloody and bizarre spectacle.
Purple blood with a fishy smell flowed down the chain, infecting the entire land in an instant.
Fujimaru Ritsuka helplessly spread her hands and said:
"So, do we have to have a fight before we can have a good conversation?"
"That's...my move...!"
Jin Gu stared at the blurry figure summoned by Fujimaru Ritsuka, with uncontrollable shock in his eyes. An astonishing guess instantly appeared in his mind, and he blurted it out unconsciously.
"Enkidu-?!"
"Bingo."
Fujimaru Ritsuka snapped his fingers and said with a smile:
"But to be precise, it's just a shadow of Xiao En."
"Xiao En...?"
Hearing such a cute nickname, Jin Gu's eyes couldn't help but twitch slightly.
But Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't care about his reaction and just smiled:
"So, do you want to continue? Although it's best to resolve it peacefully, it's not like I can't accompany you..."
With that said, Fujimaru Ritsuka once again summoned a spirit-based shadow. Three shadow followers formed a triangle to protect her in the middle. She looked at Jingu with a smile.
That's...
Jin Gu looked at the new spiritual base shadow again. Although he couldn't see the appearance clearly, the other person felt very familiar to him, but also very strange. This feeling was——
Gilgamesh?
At this time, looking at Jin Gu across from him, Fujimaru Ritsuka had to sigh in his heart. Enkidu was indeed a perfect servant in all aspects.
Not only is he powerful, but he also has a good personality. More importantly, he has no obvious weaknesses. He can be said to be a standard hexagonal warrior.
It is indeed difficult to face such an enemy, and the only way is to crush them through hard power.
"..."
On the other side, looking at the posture put up by Fujimaru Ritsuka, Jin Gu finally fell into some thinking.
Just as Fujimaru Ritsuka himself said, what she summoned was just a shadow, and he could sense that the real power of Doenkidu's spiritual shadow was not as powerful as his.
However, there is still the shadow of Gilgamesh on the field. If the two work together to fight...
Judging from the memory of this body he obtained, it's a little tricky.
What's more, there is an unknown spiritual base shadow, as well as various magical methods that the other party has shown before...
"……All right."
Finally, after pondering for a moment, Jin Gu put away his plan to fight, looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said: "I will just listen to what you want to say. But according to the content, I will make a response judgment and decision-making.”
"If that's the case, please do."
Seeing that Jin Gu chose to make a certain compromise, Fujimaru Ritsuka also smiled and lifted the shadow of the spirit base.
To be honest, of course she wanted to avoid fighting as much as possible. After all, the opponent was still the holder of the Holy Grail, so it would be quite troublesome if they really wanted to fight.
Let’s get back to the point.
"So, what do you want to say to me?"
"..."
Faced with Jin Gu's question, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not answer immediately, but glanced at the Blood Temple behind him.
Now, in the deepest part of the Blood Temple, Gorgon, the Goddess of Warcraft, is probably concentrating on incubating the second generation of Warcraft, right?
Sensing Fujimaru Ritsuka's gaze, Jin Gu looked at her again for a while, then flew into the air and said:
"Follow me."
Following Jin Gu, the two came to a forest area not far from the Blood Temple.
As long as there is an accident at this distance, Jin Gu can rush back immediately, but it will not let Gorgon notice the movement on their side. Jin Gu said coldly: "There should be no problem here, right?"
"certainly."
Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled and then said:
"Before explaining my purpose, I would like to ask first, what do you think of Gorgon?"
"Do you really want to help her achieve her goal, or are you just using her as a tool to wake up Tiamat?"
"——!"
As soon as these words came out, Jin Gu's pupils shrank slightly, and the cold killing intent burst out from his body again.
"How did you know the secret of Gorgon?"
This is the deepest secret he hides in his heart, and even Gorgon, the goddess of warcraft, has no way of knowing it. Logically speaking, he is the only one in this singularity who knows about this plan.
But how did the guy in front of me know? !
Thinking of this, Jin Gu has made up his mind to keep the other party completely!
However, on the other side, Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to smile without changing his expression:
"In addition, what I want to ask is, if Gorgon really failed and died, if there was a chance, would you be willing to save her? A life?"
"...?"
Jin Gu's expression was startled, the murderous intention in his body dissipated a little, and the look he looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka became a little complicated.
"What do you mean?"
really.
After seeing all the changes in Jin Gu's expression, Fujimaru Ritsuka probably had something in mind.
The reason why the Goddess of Warcraft possesses Tiamat's power is not that she obtained Tiamat's power through the Holy Grail, but rather a more direct synchronization.
Since Merlin's magic caused Tiamat to fall into a deep sleep and could not be awakened, Jin Gu came up with this method——
Directly connecting the lives of Gorgon and Tiamat.
If the Gorgon is killed, this [death] will be simultaneously passed to Tiamat.
However, Tiamat does not have the concept of [death], so this [death] has no effect on Tiamat. It will only serve as a strong stimulus to wake Tiamat directly from her dream.
This is the deeper layout of Jingu.
but--
Fujimaru Ritsuka recalled the past events she had experienced. At the beginning, after Gorgon was defeated by them, Jingu who rushed over showed a lot of gaffes and outrageous anger. This performance was not a fake performance, but a true feeling. outpouring.
In other words, Jin Gu not only used Gorgon as a tool to resurrect Tiamat, he also sincerely assisted Gorgon and hoped that the other party would succeed.
Gorgon in Chaldea never thought that Jin Gu was taking advantage of her.
In addition, she later learned from Gorgon that during the incubation of the monsters, Jin Gu let go of all the children brought back by the monsters and did not let other monsters harm them.
Of course, this is also the result of Gorgon's acquiescence.
Thinking of this, Fujimaru Ritsuka's thoughts returned to reality and smiled: "I want to make a deal with you."
"……trade?"
Hearing this, Jin Gu looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with increasing hesitation, not understanding what the other party wanted to do.
What's more, what kind of deal can they do with each other?
Fujimaru Ritsuka continued to smile:
"The content of the transaction is very simple:
When Gorgon fails and dies, I can save her life; accordingly, I hope to get something from you."
"Where am I...?"
Jin Gu suddenly reacted and sneered:
"You didn't say you wanted the Holy Grail, did you?"
"Of course not."
Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head and said with a smile:
"I want a lock of your hair."
"...?"
