She was a woman of stunning beauty, with long, gorgeous purple hair. However, at the ends of her hair were terrifying tongues. Her eyes were cold and filled with contempt as she looked down at the people below.
Behind it, two pairs of golden wings spread out, and its lower body was not a human body, but a black snake body with red patterns and golden scales.
However, what's most shocking is its enormous size. It's at least tens of meters tall, to be honest.
Seeing it in an anime is one thing, but seeing it in person is another.
The sheer size of the body was breathtaking. Not to mention, the two spheres on its chest alone were several times larger than the butterfly, making it truly magnificent.
This kind of presence wouldn't be surprising even in the Ultraman movie set next door, let alone in a place like this, it's practically supermodel level.
In an instant, the soldiers who had followed Xia Die and the others lost their morale and were filled with fear.
A look of seriousness appeared in Xia Die's eyes at the right moment.
Xia Die (Absolute Demonic Front: Battlefront!): 29: Ushiwakamaru, reporting for duty!
"How noisy, humans! The leader of the Three Goddess Alliance, the Mother Goddess of Beasts, Tiamat, has personally appeared. Shouldn't you be prostrating yourselves and offering prayers?"
Upon hearing the words of this enormous being, a look of solemnity flashed across everyone's eyes. Anna, who was standing to the side, wanted to make a move, but Xia Die shook her head at her.
Anna is quite exhausted today; making a hasty move would only alert the enemy.
However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Merlin had no combat ability, and if Anna hadn't intervened, there would have been no one to deal with the giant lion Ugal. Ordinary soldiers would not have been able to defeat such a monster.
"Unlike what I expected, humanity's last Master did not appear. Oh well, since that's the case, then I will destroy humanity with my own hands."
As she spoke, her tail merely swept across the ground casually, leveling countless houses to the ground.
The sheer size of its body created a sense of oppression that no other magical beast could match.
Xia Die's eyes were solemn. She had almost forgotten the details of the original plot, but there was one thing she knew about Yue Yi: once the fake Tiamat in front of her died, the real Tiamat would wake up.
If the creator goddess were to awaken at this point in time, humanity would truly be doomed.
Currently, the Master of Chaldea has not yet appeared, which means that the Grand Assassin who could give Tiamat the concept of death may not appear.
The only way to defeat Tiamat is to become a demigod of death. According to Xia Die's guess, if she fully controls the power of death, she should be able to influence Tiamat. At that time, there will still be a chance.
But the problem now is, where exactly is the spark?
She had searched every possible place, even the underworld, and if it wasn't there, Xia Die really couldn't think of any other places.
Gorgon's gaze was filled with a menacing light; as a god, his mere aura was enough to immobilize anyone he encountered.
Xia Die felt an extremely strong sense of pressure on her body, but for her, it was nothing. Her body only stiffened slightly before returning to normal.
"Oh? It's interesting."
A glint of darkness flashed in Gorgon's eyes as he gazed at the distant butterfly.
"If I use you as raw material, I'm sure I can create a very powerful magical beast, right?"
The next moment, countless snake hairs shot out and tore at Xia Die.
However, Xia Die reacted extremely quickly. Upon seeing this, she dodged behind her and swung her scythe, severing the snake hair.
"This is a bit tricky..."
Feeling Gorgon's offensive, Xia Die's eyes showed a hint of struggle.
Perhaps for the Masters of Chaldea, Gorgon is the most difficult of the three goddesses to defeat. After all, Ereshkigal and Quetzalcoatl are essentially good people and not people who need to fight to the death. But this enemy is someone who needs to be completely overcome.
However, this is not the case for Xia Die.
Because... her hands possess the ability to instantly kill. In this world, Xia Chao's abilities are top-tier. Even Ryougi Shiki's Mystic Eyes of Death Perception have to be severed with a sword, but Xia Chao only needs to touch her opponent.
This ability is considered exceptional, especially when facing large enemies.
Powerful magical beasts like the giant lion Ugal are difficult for ordinary heroic spirits to defeat, but Xiaodie only needs to touch them.
The current Gorgon is definitely more difficult to deal with than others, given his enormous size, but if Xiaodie wanted to, she would certainly be able to defeat him.
After all, with such a massive body, simply summoning the waters of the Styx and splashing them onto the opponent would cause immense damage. But the key point is... Gorgon and Tiamat are now directly connected. If Xiaodie really defeats Gorgon, then the real Tiamat will appear. She is the true Mother Goddess of Creation, whose strength is far beyond Gorgon's. Moreover, she doesn't even have the concept of death, so Xiaodie's abilities will not be effective.
This has completely blocked both ends of the problem.
If they don't fight back, they'll be relentlessly pursued by Gorgon. But if they do fight back, Tiamat will awaken. Without any prerequisites, everyone can just happily call GG, making the game even more unplayable.
Just as Xia Die hesitated, Merlin stepped forward from behind her.
"You two, run! I'll hold them off."
He spoke to Xia Die and Anna who were standing beside him.
As he spoke, he held his staff and directly deflected Gorgon's attack.
No, it wasn't completely neutralized; the attack that pierced through his body was simply easily neutralized.
Merlin, on the other hand, was completely unharmed.
Since the true form is a nightmare, which is essentially a non-existent entity, Gorgon naturally cannot hit the opponent.
Gorgon also saw through the other party's true nature in an instant.
"Is immortality due to powerlessness? It just so happens that I haven't used these eyes in a long time."
Gorgon sneered, his eyes gleaming with an eerie light.
At that very moment, Merlin leaped up like a mouse encountering a cat, rushing to Xia Die's back: "I'm sorry, I have to take back what I just said, Xia Die, Anna, you must protect me no matter what! If I lose consciousness, things will really be very bad!"
"Let's fight and retreat, let's go quickly."
Xia Die gripped her scythe tightly and stood in front of Anna and Merlin.
Merlin's true form is currently suppressing the real Tiamat. If he were to lose consciousness, there would be no point in fighting; the real Tiamat would immediately revive, and everyone would die.
If all else fails, we'll have to take action first; a living person can't be allowed to die from holding in their pee.
Let's try to force them to back down first.
Having made up her mind, Xia Die took a deep breath and let Anna, whose magic was greatly depleted, take Merlin away, while she chose to cover their retreat.
The Butterfly brandished her scythe, fighting and retreating, but the sheer number of Gorgon's snake hairs was overwhelming, and for the time being, the Butterfly could only barely defend herself.
However, if you always defend, there will always be times when you are careless.
A giant python lunged at Xia Die, ready to tear at her.
At that very moment, a flash of light hurtled towards Xia Die at incredible speed, and then disappeared into her wake.
In an instant, the fierce slash shattered the snake hair that was biting at Xiaodie, and even left a scratch on Gorgon's face, from which blood flowed.
You must understand, that is the body of a god. Ordinary people wouldn't even have a scratch, let alone a wound!
"King Gilgamesh's servant, Rider, Ushiwakamaru, come on!"

"Leave this to me, Xia Die. Please don't look back. Run all the way back to the North Wall."
Holding a long sword, she cautiously stared at Gorgon, and without turning her head, spoke to Xiaodie behind her.
"She can't kill me, I can protect myself."
In response to Niu Ruomaru's words, Xia Die gently shook her head.
"Now is not the time to be reckless, Miss Xia Die. I am a Heroic Spirit, but you are not. If you die, you will really die."
With a wave of his hand, he shattered a snake's hair, Ushiwakamaru said.
"But you will lose your memories when you return to the Throne of Heroes. If you lose your memories, then it is no different from death."
The butterfly gently shook its head.
“The opponent possesses divinity and a demonic eye. You absolutely cannot defeat him in a one-on-one fight. We will leave after Merlin departs.”
Xia Die knew that if she left, Ushiwakamaru would definitely lose to Gorgon. Even if Ushiwakamaru's speed could cause great trouble for the opponent, it would only be trouble. If Gorgon got serious, Ushiwakamaru would be defeated instantly.
Xia Die doesn't want to face Ushiwakamaru with swords in the future. After all, the corrupted Ushiwakamaru is still very troublesome. Moreover, even out of personal feelings, Xia Die likes him very much and doesn't want him to end up like this.
“Miss Xia Die… alright, since that’s the case, let’s fight side by side! Be careful, I’ll cover you.”
As he spoke, Ushiwakamaru drew his sword and charged at his opponent.
Annoying flies.
Ushiwakamaru was extremely fast, and even Gorgon couldn't defeat him in a short time. Meanwhile, the attacks from the other butterfly could also cause great damage to Gorgon.
It appears that Ushiwakamaru is using high-speed movement to restrain his opponent, but in reality, Ushiwakamaru can only restrain his opponent's snake hair. It is difficult for him to cause any damage to Gorgon's main body. On the other hand, Harucho is different. Although she rarely gets a chance to attack, she can leave wounds on her opponent every time.
Her scythe could even wound the bodies of gods.
After all, the divinity of this world cannot suppress Xia Die, an being from beyond the heavens. She is a true being outside the rules, and all the common-sense laws of this world have no effect on Xia Die.
This is why Xia Die was confident that if she obtained the Fire Seed and became a demigod, she would be able to gain the power to defeat Tiamat.
"I'm getting tired of this annoying fly; it should be swatted dead by me!"
After the initial awkwardness, Xia Die and Niu Ruo Wan's teamwork became increasingly tacit. The two fought and retreated, entangled with Gorgon all the way until Merlin and Anna successfully returned to the Iron Wall. It was at this moment that Gorgon's face showed an impatient expression.
She looked at the two of them, snorted coldly, and then spoke.
Because of Xia Die's warning, Ushiwakamaru kept moving around and did not rush in. He chose to attack Gorgon when he showed a weakness. Although he did not know why Xia Die said that, Ushiwakamaru did as she said.
As a samurai, she was still very obedient, even though her lord was no longer Xia Die.
Even though Ushiwakamaru had several opportunities to hit Gorgon's eyes and seriously injure him during the battle, she didn't do it. Instead, she listened to Xia Die's advice and chose to maneuver and save her life.
It was precisely because of Ushiwakamaru's obedience that Gorgon became increasingly irritable.
"careful!"
In a split second, Xia Die said to Niu Ruowan, "Don't look into their eyes!"
At that very moment, Gorgon's eyes emitted a bewitching light, and a purple glow emanated from them.
