As the largest city in this era and the center of the world, Uruk was located in the southeast of Mesopotamia. It could be reached by traveling south along the Euphrates River.
Because the northern part of the city had been occupied by the Goddess of Magical Beasts and was filled with magical beasts, and the southern part of the city had been transformed into a jungle, Uruk could be said to be facing enemies from both sides. Not only did they have to defend against the attacks of the Magical Beast Army, but they also could not retreat from the south. It was as if they were surrounded and could only defend to the death.
Rozen had landed in the northern part of the territory occupied by the Magical Beasts. If they wanted to reach Uruk, they would have to travel south first.
"Originally, I wanted to suggest taking a detour to avoid being ambushed by the Magical Beast Army. But since we can fly, it couldn't be better."
That was what Enki always said.
Being able to fly was indeed a great advantage.
Because there were no signs of flying magical beasts yet.
According to the information provided by Enkidu, there seemed to be pterodactyl-like magical beasts roaming the southern forests. However, they rarely appeared outside of the forests. If they traveled by air, they wouldn't have to worry about being ambushed by magical beasts.
And so, Rozen and Enki flew south towards Uruk.
"The Goddess appears in this area, and she often flies past Uruk's defense line and directly into Uruk to wreak havoc. Let's wait there for her to walk right into the trap."
This was Enki's plan.
Rozen did not raise any objections and nodded as if he did not care.
On the other hand, Chaldea and the others had been communicating with Enki in an attempt to obtain more information about this era.
This was something that they had no other choice.
Because they were in Kanzaki, the precision of Chaldea's observation was very low.
In the world before Christ, the density of magical energy in the atmosphere alone was so high that no matter how they calculated, they would not be able to process the information over there.
Therefore, this time, not only could Chaldea not scan and observe the terrain, but communication could also be interrupted at any time. Only the area around Uruk could be considered stable.
As a result, Chaldea had to rely on the people here to provide actual information. Through sight and hearing, they could directly confirm the situation of this era and give feedback to Chaldea. Only then could Chaldea make accurate observations, but he could not guarantee that there would be no errors.
Under such circumstances, Chaldea naturally wouldn't let a local like Enkidu get away. He asked question after question to gather as much information as he could.
Enkidu also told everything he knew. As long as it was something he knew, he would answer it without hesitation.
Considering his spirit lattice, it was rare for him to be so gentle and calm.
Just like that, Rozen and Enki continued to fly.
Until the Magical Beast Army suddenly appeared on the ground below.
"That is …"
Rozen looked at the scene below and couldn't help but be surprised.
Not to mention Rozen, even the rest of the people were shocked by this.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Countless magical beasts were charging towards the south, trying to outdo each other in order to be the first to attack.
In the direction they were heading, there was a line of defense.
A line of defense formed by a tall city wall.
The line of defense seemed to stretch for thousands of miles without an end in sight. It stood on the ground, dividing the earth into two parts, north and south. It was so majestic and solemn.
In front of the city wall, there were soldiers who looked like humans holding up the fence, roaring furiously as they fought against the magical beasts that charged at them.
The Magical Beast Army was blocked by that line of defense, unable to move an inch.
The soldiers formed a line of defense with the city wall as the center, constantly resisting the incoming Magical Beasts.
Everyone was dumbfounded by this scene.
Only Enkidu was smiling calmly.
"That is, when the magical beasts buried the north, King Gilgamesh personally ordered the disintegration of the city of Babylon, and the materials after the disintegration were used to build the Northern Wall, the world's largest city defense wall, the absolute front line of the magical beasts — Babylonia."
Enkidu spoke in a calm voice.
"It was by relying on that front line, relying on that wall, that Uruk was able to resist the attack of the Magical Beast Army for half a year. Even the Three Goddesses Alliance was temporarily helpless. They could only continue to ravage the earth and human beings in their own way, using this inefficient method to destroy human cities."
It was because of this wall that the humans managed to hold on to Uruk, the last stronghold of the human race.
"Once that line of defense falls, it means the end of human beings. Uruk City will be destroyed immediately, and the human species will completely disappear from the earth."
Enkidu's words silenced the crowd.
Only Rozen, looking at that scene, suddenly smiled.
"It seems that the situation of this singularity is better than I thought."
As soon as Rozen said that, Enkidu was stunned.
"Is this okay?"
Enkidu was surprised.
Although human beings were able to resist the Magical Beast Army, no matter how he looked at it, it was only a matter of time before they fell.
After all, human beings have done their best to resist the Magical Beast Army, and the three goddesses haven't even taken action yet.
Even on the Magical Beast Army, it seemed that the Magical Beast Army hasn't attacked yet.
That was what Da Vinci said.
"Now, we have detected thousands of Magical Beasts' reactions, and we can detect dozens of times more in the forest in the north. Even a conservative estimate of the number of Magical Beasts active on the ground would be in the tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. With such a massive Magical Beast Army, even with the defense line, I'm afraid it won't be able to hold on for long."
That was the current situation.
Even the Magical Beast Army was in such a precarious situation, not to mention the threat of the other goddesses.
Faced with this situation, Rozen said the situation was better than he thought.
But this was the truth.
"Compared to the fifth singularity, where all the humans are on the brink of destruction and can only struggle at death's door, the humans at the sixth singularity have to either accept the death of the Holy Lions or hide in the mountains and starve to death. At the very least, the humans at the seventh singularity have managed to put up a fight."
That was what Rozen thought.
Originally, Rozen thought that the situation would be worse, but now it seemed that everything was not too late.
As for the crisis, Rozen was already used to it.
It was just tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of Magical Beasts attacking the last line of defense of human beings. Compared to the Aerial Battle Magic World, where hundreds of millions of Magic Beetles came out of their nests, threatening the humans and occupying the land, this situation was not as hopeless.
"It seems that we don't have to worry about the Magical Beast Goddess for the time being, and the Forest Goddess seems to be doing nothing. The only one left is the Venus Goddess, who is indeed the most troublesome one."
Rozen stopped.
"Let's set up an ambush here."
Rozen said to Enkidu.
"Okay."
Enkidu immediately stopped and nodded at Rozen.
The two immediately landed on the ground and flew to a mountain below.
