The city of Cusa was northeast of Uruk. It was not close, but it was not far either.
As Siduri said, the land in the northeast could basically be regarded as Ishtar's territory. Although it was adjacent to the Magical Beast Goddess's sphere of influence, there was no conflict between the two sides.
It should be said that there was no conflict between the two sides.
Because unlike Gorgon, Ishtar did not have a large number of subordinates, nor did she occupy the land. She only controlled the air and flew freely in the northeast of Uruk. Even if she sometimes saw magical beasts wreaking havoc in her territory, she didn't care much. At most, she would bombard the land when she was in a bad mood or on a whim, destroying the magical beasts along with the terrain.
Perhaps it was because of this that there weren't many magical beasts in the northeast. At the very least, it was much better than the situation in the north, where magical beasts were everywhere.
On the way to Cusa, Rozen and Matthew even saw several ranches, which proved that the threat of magical beasts should not be too big.
Of course, although it was not big, it was still a threat.
Rozen and Matthew encountered several waves of magical beasts. At first, they wanted to avoid them, but in the end, they decided to annihilate those magical beasts on the spot.
That was also to reduce the number of magical beasts in the northeast as much as possible, so that the ranches and even the cities could be less threatened.
Therefore, even if it would waste a little time, this time, Rozen and Mashu did not choose to bypass the magical beasts, but directly launched a war of annihilation. Sometimes they even deliberately took a detour to destroy the nearby magical beasts, which was considered as doing something benevolent.
Under such circumstances, even if it took some time, Rozen and Matthew still arrived in Cusa before dark.
But …
"It's so quiet …"
Standing on the street of Cusa, Matthew could not help but whisper.
Rozen was not much better.
"It seems that there is no one alive in this city."
Rozen looked around and confirmed that.
Through the Divine Eye's observation, Rozen was sure that there was no aura of any Magical Beasts in the entire city of Cusa, let alone humans.
All the buildings were intact, and even the shops and stalls on the roadside were in good condition. All kinds of items were placed neatly, and there was no sign of chaos. However, there was no one around. It was exceptionally quiet, or perhaps it could be said to be dead silence.
To be honest, such a situation would not only make one suspicious, but it would also make one shudder.
Everything was fine, but the person was gone. This kind of phenomenon really made people feel a little cold.
But there was nothing he could do about it.
"According to the information provided by the high priest named Siduri, the people of Cusar should be like those in Uruk who had their souls taken away by Garulla's spirit. All of them died quietly overnight. Not a single one survived, right?"
Olga Marie's nervous voice came from the communicator on Rozen's wrist.
"The soulless bodies have all been moved to Uruk. That's why there's nothing here."
Da Vinci slowly continued Olga Marie's words.
"But there's not even a single Magical Beast. There are a lot of magical and biological reactions detected around Cusa, which proves that there are many Magical Beasts near Cusa, but none of them dared to enter Cusa. It's really incredible."
Roman's tone was very serious.
Even Matthew spoke.
"I heard from Miss Siduri that half a year ago, the northern city was suddenly attacked by Magical Beasts. When all kinds of changes occurred everywhere, life in Cusa has been quietly wiped out."
Matthew said softly.
"At that time, King Gilgamesh claimed to have seen the future, so he made up his mind to do something like Heroic Spirit Summoning. Because this time, what is needed is not the power of one person."
After that, Gilgamesh ordered the disintegration of the city of Babylon. He used the city's construction materials and various resources to build the Magical Beast Frontline and uproot the Northern Wall from the north of Uruk.
After that, Gilgamesh sent Niu Ruomaru and Bin-Qing to Cusa to carry out a rescue mission, but all they saw were the citizens of Cusa who had lost their souls and fell into a deep sleep.
Since then, Cusa has become a cursed place. Not to mention humans, even Magical Beasts were reluctant to approach.
Thinking about it, it was only natural.
"The smell of death here is so strong, who would dare to come here?"
Rozen said.
Under his observation, the entire City of Cusa was shrouded by the smell of death more than ten times stronger than Uruk, turning it into a dead city.
With such a strong scent of death, even the strongest human would be weakened to death in a few days.
Even Gorgon's Magical Beast wouldn't be able to stay in such a place for long.
In that case, it was strange that Gorgon would be willing to approach the city.
If it weren't for the fact that this world was different from Tokyo Raven's world, such a strong smell of death alone would cause a chain of Undead.
From that point of view, it was indeed the work of the Goddess of the Underworld.
"I believe that the cold air in the Underworld must be a hundred times stronger than the smell of death on the ground. Ordinary people will face the danger of death just by entering it, right?"
That showed how dangerous it was to go to the Underworld.
But Rozen and Matthew had to go.
The problem was …
"How do I go to the Underworld? Senpai? "
Mashu asked this question for the time being.
Rozen wanted to answer.
However, before that, there was a problem that had to be solved.
"Let's talk about this later." Rozen smiled and said, "Get ready first, Matthew. The emotionless Goddess is coming."
Hearing that, Matthew was startled at first, then her expression changed. She immediately rushed to Rozen, and with a flash of light in her hand, the Shield of the Round Table immediately appeared.
"The Spiritual Base Reaction has appeared!"
In Chaldea, everyone exclaimed one after another.
Under such circumstances …
"Who's the emotionless Goddess!?"
With such an angry voice, countless flashes of light came down like a rainstorm in the sky.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!"
In the City of Cusa, a series of explosions rang out, causing the ground to crack inch by inch and shatter, raising clouds of dust. The sound was loud and powerful.
The flashes came and went quickly, causing the sand to gradually disappear, revealing a messy pit that seemed to have been razed to the ground.
Rozen stood in place, not moving.
In front of him, Matthew had already set up a shield, blocking all the flashes just now.
Then …
"Not only did you barge into someone else's territory, but you also spoke ill of the Goddess behind her back. Do you really think that I'm afraid of you?"
With these words, a figure on a heavenly ship slowly descended from the sky.
It was Ishtar.
