Chapter 95 Just as one was shot dead

Just as one was shot dead, the remaining four ignored the sporadic rain of arrows and, as if entering an empty territory, crashed headlong into the defenseless Base Blue Gate.

It wasn't that the firepower was insufficient!

If the full lineup were deployed, these demonic beasts would definitely be vaporized instantly.

But the fatal problem was—without ground obstruction and mana generation, players simply didn't have the time to deploy that proud high-ground formation. It was a complete deadlock!

Buzz—!

The screen once again fell into a deathly silent black and white.

[Mission Failed]

"Damn it! Even all-high-ground doesn't work! There's simply not enough time! The heavy hitters aren't even down before the base is gone!"

PD frantically pulled at his already thinning hair. "This black mud is an unsolvable deadlock! Vanguards can't go down so there's no cost, and high-ground units can't go down so there's no damage! Is this damn first prologue stage going to stop everyone?!"

Not just PD, but players across the internet were being driven to a mental breakdown by this despairing mechanic.

As PD gritted his teeth and entered the stage for the third time, watching as the demonic beasts were about to break through the defense line again...

Suddenly, the story paused, and a cutscene was forcibly triggered without warning!

The originally oppressive battlefield BGM stopped abruptly, replaced by the crisp sound of metallic chains clashing.

"That is..."

PD's eyes widened. In his VR vision, he saw a beautiful figure with long emerald-green hair and indeterminate gender descending lightly from the sky.

The next second, a stirring symphony boomed!

Countless chains shimmering with dazzling golden light, like a divine punishment from the gods, erupted from the void and the earth! With a physical tension and destructive force that made one's soul tremble, they instantly impaled and strangled those massive demonic beasts rushing toward the blue gate right where they stood!

[Story Support NPC—Enkidu, has joined the front line!]

[Special Aura Triggered: Blessing of the Chains of Heaven. All ground Servants are immune to the black mud's corrosion effect!]

"Holy crap!!!"

"Enkidu?!"

After a brief silence, the livestream room instantly exploded into a tsunami of celebration that nearly took the roof off!

"Isn't this exactly what happened in the first episode of the animation?! It's identical! Even the music and the storyboards are exactly the same!"

"Oh my god! Ten minutes ago, I just saw him save Fujimaru Ritsuka in the animation, and ten minutes later, I'm personally experiencing the feeling of being saved by him in the game?!"

"Incredible! The animation and game plots are perfectly aligned! This level of immersion is just insane!"

This was the ultimate shock Oriole had prepared for the players.

It wasn't some stiff crossover cameo, but letting the players, after watching the animation, immediately enter that perfectly replicated real world as the "Master" themselves to experience that soul-stirring epic beginning!

Amidst the excited screams of players across the internet, the green-haired beauty in the image slowly turned around.

Looking at the shaken Master and Mash hiding behind the defense line, a smile as warm as a spring breeze blossomed on that exquisite face.

"Are you all right, guests of Chaldea?"

"Welcome to the Age of Gods. Welcome to... Uruk."

Looking at this beautiful figure who descended like a savior, PD was so moved he almost cried out loud.

"Enkidu! You are literally my god! There's finally a solution for this black mud!"

But amidst the fanatical bullet comments of "Enkidu is my waifu" filling the screen...

Those lore buffs who were familiar with Old Thief Kirito's nature or were naturally sensitive to the plot sensed a faint, unsettling aura within that flawless smile.

Regardless, the grand epic of the Seventh Singularity had finally opened its bottomless abyss to the players of Blue Star in this shocking "dual-sync" debut.
