Chapter 581: Your Grandfather Looks Quite Unique
As a pilot with the ability of a 'Chariot Master', Cheng Tian himself could remotely control Gates, which was equipped with the 'Six-Machine Combined Hundred Dragon King' transformation function.
The Velociraptor Warrior, on the other hand, directly adopted the exact same AI operating logic as the laboratory's guardian.
Cheng Tian didn't bother with a two-stage approach; instead, he immediately had Gates activate its transformation, turning into the Hundred Dragon King, temporarily boosting all its stats by 600% for 137 seconds.
The Velociraptor Warrior then leaped onto the shoulder of the greatly enlarged Hundred Dragon King. This combination of one large and one small mechanical body looked exactly like the 'Toguro Brothers'.
Although Qiuqiu had already seen the guardian metal dragons in the laboratory, this was her first time seeing the Hundred Dragon King.
And here, we must first thank Fuyuki City and even the Type-Moon World for their broad inclusiveness regarding dungeon entries.
As a world view primarily showcasing supernatural and mysterious phenomena, there were no additional restrictions on mechanical creations. Cheng Tian estimated that if Optimus Prime were a native entity of this world, the Counter Force would probably bestow him with some special identity.
It was precisely because of this lack of restrictions that Cheng Tian was able to successfully swap out the Flea Man and Frankenstein for these two metallic entities.
As a temporary vessel for the Black Mud, Qiuqiu possessed an almost unsolvable, all-encompassing contamination ability against most Servants and life forms. Just standing there, she continuously emitted corrosive energy like an aura or field.
The presence of this field would cause living beings to experience hallucinations, seeing false images most likely to induce extreme emotions such as fear and despair, and over time, begin to develop madness and self-destructive tendencies.
And once physical contact was made, it was essentially comparable to the corrupted Servants in the original work who were swallowed and then resummoned.
However, this powerful corrosive ability, stemming from the Evils of the World towards living beings and Heroic Spirits, had very little effect on purely mechanical units.
The Hundred Dragon King and Velociraptor Warrior, completely unaffected, unhesitatingly launched an attack on Qiuqiu.
The Hundred Dragon King's left and right hands spewed forth fire breath and ice breath respectively, while the Velociraptor roared in support.
Hmm, this was very 'Jurassic World', making Cheng, who was controlling them from behind, inexplicably recall the scene of the T-Rex + Velociraptor fighting the genetically modified Indominus Rex.
The Black Mud Sasaki, possessing only combat skills but no resistance, was instantly frozen and casually shattered into countless fragments by the Hundred Dragon King. The Black Mud Medea, a little further away, was also forced to retreat.
Qiuqiu, on the other hand, moved swiftly like a maglev train, dodging rapidly within the relatively spacious BOSS room.
She realized that her available summoning list seemingly did not contain any entities capable of effectively countering these large mechanical bodies, but after frowning for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up.
A considerable amount of Black Mud once again emerged from Qiuqiu's ankles. While these Black Mud summoned some cannon fodder humanoid figures to buy time, they also infiltrated the building materials of Dracula's Castle.
Because Dracula's Castle was summoned using the contaminated ley lines of Fuyuki City, and the highly reduction bio-android, which was Qiuqiu's main body, contained Cheng Tian's genetic seed components, Dracula's Castle and the Black Mud had a great deal of commonality to a certain extent.
Viewing the current Dracula's Castle as another form of Black Mud's existence is not incorrect; it merely presented different effects in the hands of different controllers.
If Qiuqiu's side was specialized in summoning and contamination, then Cheng Tian's side was specialized in rules. As long as one entered Dracula's Castle, they had to abide by its rules, even including the castle lord himself.
The highly common Black Mud flowed through the cracks in the building materials to the front half of Dracula's Castle, which was where other subsequent challengers were currently located.
As mentioned before, the arrival of Dracula's Castle almost passively attracted all special existences in Fuyuki City, and this naturally included Matou Sakura, who should have been looking after Matou Shinji.
As a pseudo-Holy Grail artificially modified, Matou Sakura was extremely difficult to resist the natural attraction from Dracula's Castle.
And unexpectedly, her combination with Rider was also frightened by the swarms of Medusa's Heads that Cheng Tian had set up in the chapel area.
But suddenly, Matou Sakura felt a chill on her shoulder, as if something had dripped onto it.
Turning her head, she saw something like black, muddy sludge.
"Sakura! Watch your head!"
Upon hearing her Servant's shout, Matou Sakura finally noticed that the ceiling above her seemed to be leaking, spilling down a large amount of Black Mud filled with cursed power!
Rider, instinctively resisting such cursed matter, slammed to a halt, preparing to pull out her reins to summon Pegasus, but it was clearly too late.
Matou Sakura seemed to melt, swallowed by the Black Mud, and disappeared into the floor.
But in Rider's contract perception, her connection with Matou Sakura had not been completely severed.
She was still alive!
On the other side, in front of Qiuqiu, who had been using cannon fodder pseudo-Servants to stall the Hundred Dragon King and Velociraptor combination, Black Mud also re-converged, quickly forming into Matou Sakura's likeness.
This was an alternative ability, a manifestation of combining Black Mud with psychic teleportation, allowing for forced teleportation of a target via the Black Mud.
However, before Matou Sakura could react effectively, Qiuqiu's hand shot out like lightning, directly plunging into Matou Sakura's left chest.
"Ah!!!!!!"
Accompanied by Matou Sakura's almost instinctive cry of pain, her body instantly phased and, beyond her control, recoiled backward.
And Qiuqiu, maintaining her grasping motion, pulled something out from its heart—
It wasn't a heart or a soul she pulled out. In Qiuqiu's hand was a bloody worm with a spiral-shaped body, resembling a pig's reproductive organ, but with a head much like a turtle's, and a mouth filled with sharp, pointed teeth in a split opening in the middle, emitting a piercing shriek.
"What... are you doing!?"
A sound resembling a magical resonance technique emerged from this ugly 'Gouba' worm, a rather aged male voice.
Matou Sakura, with a hole in her heart and nerves torn out, was curled up in pain, trembling all over, yet her eyes were fixed intently on the worm in Qiuqiu's hand.
"Your grandfather looks quite unique."
Qiuqiu said, her hand beginning to squeeze.
"Wait! Wait! I—"
Before the worm could utter its last words, its entire body was crushed by Qiuqiu.
At the same time, Cheng Tian on the throne received this notification.
[Composite Unit 'Qiu Huo' has killed 'Matou Zouken'.]
[Due to the body composition of Qiu Huo including 'Bio-Android 2.0', and Matou Zouken dying within the domain of Dracula's Castle, you will also be considered to have participated in the killing of Matou Zouken and will receive at least 50% of the kill contribution.]
[The corresponding treasure chest drop will be automatically teleported to the 'Treasury' after the battle.]
