Wouch! "
Under the night sky, a figure covered in dazzling fire powder flew all the way from the direction of the fir forest.
Not long after, wrapped in fire powder, the figure slowly descended to the ground, landing on the top of a dilapidated building in an abandoned city.
"Phew …"
Rozen took a deep breath, feeling the magical power left in his body, and smiled bitterly.
Beside him, two figures appeared one after another.
"Senpai!"
Matthew quickly held Rozen.
"Are you okay?"
Attila also looked at Rozen and frowned.
"I'm fine."
Rozen shook his head and smiled at Mashu, who was worried, and Attila, who was frowning.
Seeing that Rozen could still smile, Matthew and Attila were a little relieved.
Chaldea's people were also relieved.
"Fortunately, although the magical power consumption is a bit intense, the magic circuit seems to have begun to recover. The previous nourishment was not in vain."
Da Vinci's voice came from the communicator.
"According to this trend, it should not worsen. Fortunately, you did not continue to fight."
Roman also heaved a sigh of relief.
"You're too reckless. You know your own situation, but you're still trying to be brave. Let's not talk about rescuing all the people in the temple. You don't have to deal with Gorgon yourself. You can just leave it to Attila and Mashu."
Olga Marie visibly relaxed her taut nerves, and then she rebuked him angrily.
The director's words were not wrong.
Regardless of saving the people in the Temple, when dealing with Gorgon, in fact, Rozen should not fight in person. It was the best choice to leave it to Attila and Matthew.
With Attila here, they still had a high chance of winning against a Pillar Goddess like Gorgon.
Even if Gorgon had the power of the Holy Grail, Attila was also a crown-level Spirit Base, plus her destructive ability, even if it wasn't easy to deal with Gorgon, she could still win with some effort.
Under such circumstances, there was no need for Rozen to personally go into battle.
However …
"Senior had no choice, Director." Matthew spoke up for Rozen, "Because, at that time, apart from Gorgon, the Winged Serpent Bashmu hovering above the fir forest was also a threat."
Matthew's words made everyone come to a sudden realization.
Indeed, in the fir forest, there were still the magical beasts bred by Gorgon, and she was not the only enemy.
The rest of the demonic beasts couldn't fly, so they didn't pose much of a threat to Rozen who was fighting in the air at that time, but if those flying Ba Xiumu surrounded him, he would be in big trouble.
Therefore …
"From the beginning, Miss Attila was sent by Senpai to deal with Ba Xiumu, while Senpai was responsible for luring Gorgon away to prevent him from joining up with Ba Xiumu."
Speaking of that, Matthew felt a little guilty.
"On the other hand, I can't fly, and I need to consume Senior's magic power. Senior then decided that rather than letting me go into battle, it would be better for him to hold Gorgon back for the time being. After Lady Attila has dealt with Ba Xiumu, we can gather all our forces to attack Gorgon."
Unfortunately, as they fought, Rozen couldn't help but show his true strength.
Whether it was the cocoons in the Temple or Gorgon's hatred, both made Rozen lose control of his emotions.
So, Rozan Can didn't hesitate to force himself to eliminate Gorgon.
But in the end, Jin Gu came back in time, and with the appearance of Quizar, the Lord God, Rozen decided to retreat after some consideration.
Anyway, their goal was achieved. If they continued to fight, not only would Rozen's situation be bad, but Attila would also feel a little pressured to deal with the three goddesses and Jin Gu at the same time.
Unless Ishtar would continue to stand on their side, then they could think of a solution.
But looking at Ishtar's behavior, Rozen felt that the goddess's stance wasn't too firm, and she might not always side with them.
After much consideration, Rozan Can decided to retreat for the time being.
Thanks to his decisiveness, although his magical power was almost depleted, the deterioration of his magic circuit was avoided.
"Let's go back to Uruk first." Rozen took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what happened to those who teleported back to Uruk. They must've caused chaos. We've seen the three goddesses, and we also found the Holy Grail. This time, although there were many changes in the process, and it didn't go according to the original plan, the harvest was more than expected."
In that case, they should go back to Uruk to reorganize before continuing the battle.
"Matthew," Rozen turned his head and looked at Matthew, and said, "go pick up Merlin and Anna."
As soon as he said that, a voice immediately came from the side.
"No need, we're already here."
With such a voice, a flower dance fluttered, and two figures, one big and one small, one white and one black, appeared.
It was Merlin and Anna.
"Fou!"
Fou, who was standing on Merlin's shoulder, cried, jumped down, and pounced on Matthew.
"Fou!"
Matthew hugged Fou, who was pouncing on her, and showed a relieved expression.
"Already here?"
Attila also looked over.
Both Merlin and Anna raised their heads, but their expressions were completely different.
"What a thrilling experience." Merlin sighed and said, "When I saw what happened in the shrine, I had a bad feeling. In addition, Jin Gu had also reacted and started to return. The Jungle Goddess even appeared on the Feathered Serpentwing Dragon. I have to say, even I felt a little nervous."
Obviously, Merlin used his Clairvoyance to see everything.
"… Sorry, I couldn't rescue in time. Merlin didn't let me rush into the fir forest."
Anna looked at Rozen's somewhat tired face and lowered her eyes guiltily.
When she knew that Rozen and Gorgon were fighting, Anna wanted to rush in again and again, but Merlin never agreed.
"With such a big movement, the magical beasts in the fir forest must've gone berserk. Rushing in at this time is suicide, Anna."
With this as a reason, Merlin stopped Anna again and again.
Fortunately, Merlin stopped them. Otherwise, regardless of whether they would be attacked by magic beasts if they rushed into the fir forest, the damage to the fir forest caused by the battle between Rozen and Gorgon might hurt Anna, making her lose more than she gained.
Moreover, Jin Gu and Quizzar also came one after another. If Anna entered the fir forest, it was very likely that she would meet those two.
At that time, Anna might be in danger.
Considering all these, Merlin took Anna and left the fir forest directly.
Merlin could guess that at this point, Rozen would definitely choose to retreat and come to meet the two.
Therefore, Merlin first calculated Rozen's route and brought Anna here.
The result was that everyone had gathered together in advance.
"Then let's go back to Uruk first. We'll talk about the rest later."
Rozen said.
Everyone nodded immediately.
