Magicians and heroic spirits have limited abilities to perceive magic.
But a collision like a natural disaster and a power like annihilation can be clearly understood by even a beginner who has a trace of magic power by chance, and is shocked and trembled by it.
The violent explosion and the terrifying sense of oppression in the Einzbern Forest in the west have already plunged the entire Fuyuki City into chaos. The residents were suspicious and frightened. Could there be another natural gas explosion or a power station being struck by lightning? There have been too many disasters in Fuyuki recently, right? Where is it this time? !
But those who knew about it were silent about it.
Aozaki Orange had finished smoking half a cigarette before he shook his head in wonder and said: "They beat theirs, you compete with yours."
The location she was in at this time was the port that had been used as a battlefield last night. It had been blocked originally, but it only took a few simple hypnosis in front of Aozaki Orange to get through without any hindrance.
In her eyes, since this place has been beaten to pieces, it is suitable to be used as a battlefield. As for what reasons the church wants to use to explain to ordinary people, that is none of her business.
And of course she didn’t just come here by herself.
In addition to the heroic spearman Diarmuid, opposite her stood the master and spearman of the black team.
Bazett and Cu Chulainn.
This was a battle last night, but it was disturbed by an accident before it started. However, Aozaki Orange had no interest in participating in the core battle tonight, even if there were flowers there.
Opposite him, Bazett raised his face and looked in the direction of the forest. After a while, he looked at his idol ancestor Cu Chulainn and whispered: "What should we do if we want to fight the King of Heroes?"
"What to do?" Cu Chulainn smiled and shook his head: "My suggestion is to wait for death."
“…Hey? Why is this like this? Even if you can’t, I can still try to defeat his master. How can you give up so easily?”
"What kind of reward did the Magic Association give you, this idiot girl? Is it worth your efforts?" Cu Chulainn sighed, and then said: "Forget it, you may not have a chance to fight, and you still have to ignore the opponent in front of you. how long?"
"Ah... I'm sorry!" Bazett, who came to his senses, quickly gave a half-bow to Aozaki Orange and said: "I'm very sorry, Aozaki Orange-senior, then let's follow the previous agreement, Lancer and Lancer will compete, and then I will ask you for magic advice …”
Aozaki Orange was startled, threw away the cigarette **** in his hand, and said: "The first part is indeed an agreement, but the second half? Why don't I remember that you said you wanted to ask me for magic?"
"...No?" Bazett thought for a while, and apologized again: "Sorry, Senior Chengzi, your name is very familiar to us as the designated executors of the seal. I have always regarded you as the imaginary target of the seal... Oh no, it's just... Please give me some advice! Senior Chengzi!"
Aozaki Orange looked at Bazett silently for a while, and a playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This smile disappeared instantly as she took off her glasses, as if she had changed into a different person. She changed from a confidant wearing glasses to a cold sister in seconds, staring at Bazett coldly: "Is this so?"
“Since you are not afraid of death, then come.”
…
A pair of masters and servants started fighting, and on the other side, Emiya Kiritsugu was also preparing for action.
He is holding a sniper rifle that has been upgraded from ten years ago. He is using his familiar to determine the location of the target and look for a sniper point.
The appearance of the second Black Berserker, Arjuna, was indeed astonishing in its power and the true power of the King of Heroes, but Emiya Kiritsugu, who had experienced the storm, was only briefly dazed before formulating an action plan for tonight.
It’s time for Heracles to appear!
He previously refused to let Hercules show up, firstly to hide his power, and secondly because he was concerned about the temperament of the Hero King that he knew - in Emiya Kiritsugu's view, the Hero King would not be constrained by rules or camps at all, and he discovered that Hercules If you are interested in its power, it is possible to kill him directly.
Now that Arjuna has appeared, the hero king is already fighting fiercely, so there is one less thing to worry about.
His target was the Pantel brothers.
Or to be more precise, it’s Xabiku Pantel, the older brother of the Pantel brothers, the master of Black Rider Achilles!
Regardless of whether these two people were plotted by someone or became someone's pawns, the power they possess at this moment is somewhat powerful. It would be okay if Arjuna died in the hands of the King of Heroes, but if not, it would be enough to affect the Holy Grail War. towards.
Outside the Shabiku, Arjuna's master Dimlet Emiya Kiritsugu did not want to move, because the best result he wanted was for Achilles to withdraw and Arjuna to balance the King of Heroes.
—Emiya Kiritsugu, whose familiar could not get too close, did not know about Arjuna’s situation.
“Illya, are you ready?”
Climbing to the rooftop of a 16-story building, Emiya Kiritsugu, who set up his sniper rifle, contacted his daughter on the phone: "Did you successfully lock the target?"
"Well!" A clear and lovely girl's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Don't worry, Kiritsugu, Illya can do it well. On the contrary, you should pay attention to your safety. I have the strongest Berserker."
"Okay." Emiya Kiritsugu responded lightly: "Don't hang up the phone, wait for my prompt."
“Okay~”
Emiya Kiritsugu aimed his sniper rifle at a suburban service road with little traffic in the distance, waiting for the opportunity.
…
A few kilometers from his aiming point, the Pantel brothers were driving closer to the Western Forest.
At this time, both brothers were hesitant, feeling both pain and happiness. Because even Tohsaka Rin felt a little uncomfortable when Gilgamesh extracted the magic power, Dimlet felt that the magic circuits all over his body were creaking, as if they were about to be scrapped.
Fortunately, as a middle-aged magician who has experienced many battles, he can still hold on for the time being, and his happiness is naturally due to this - the new Berserker Arjuna really withstood the attack of the King of Heroes!
That kind of natural disaster-like power is terrifying and frightening, but it would be so happy to have one of them as one's own... Even if Arjuna behaves weirdly, it's probably worth trying for them. The connection between the command spell and magic power cannot be faked. !
The reason why they haven't recalled Arjuna yet is because they want to see what kind of surprises he can bring in front of the King of Heroes, and whether they even have a chance to win... The command spell can only be used at critical moments, and it can be considered as a combination of kindness and power. .
"Don't be careless, Dimlet, that guy gives me the feeling that he might actually be able to kill the Master." During the drive, Xia Biku, who was the brains among the brothers, did not forget to remind him.
"I know you can't be stingy with command spells. Just keep one." Dimlet nodded and said, "Brother, please tell Rider to be more vigilant."
"Um."
“Stop! Master! Be careful!”
As soon as Achilles was mentioned, Achilles suddenly appeared in the back seat to give a warning.
Xia Biku reacted quickly. After the harsh braking sound, the car stopped more than ten meters away. Without asking the reason, they quickly opened the door and jumped left and right to dodge!
Bang—The next moment, a huge stone ax seemed to appear out of thin air and crushed the car. In the magnificent firelight, their modified bulletproof car exploded like a toy!
The impact was blocked by Achilles. He picked up one in each hand and quickly distanced himself dozens of meters away. He then raised his head to be wary of the incoming attacker, but was stunned for a moment.
“No, isn’t it?”
Brothers Panter stood back on the ground and saw the huge two-meter-tall figure opposite. The dark face was even more oppressive in the night!
“Red Servant?!”
“I haven’t seen this before, is it a Berserker?”
"Hercules..." Achilles spat out the name sourly.
“...Who?” It’s not that I didn’t hear clearly, but it’s just that this situation is a bit absurd. Achilles is actually not weak. As a world-famous Greek hero, if he hadn't faced the King of Heroes last night, he shouldn't have acted weak and weak.
You must know that he is known as the hero second only to Heracles in Greek mythology!
Yes, second only to Heracles.
And then it’s here now, right? !
At the same time, on the top of a tall building in the distance, Emiya Kiritsugu seized this moment of opportunity!
Take advantage of the absurd tension of Achilles facing Hercules, and use the suitable sniper angle brought about by the smashing of the car just now, and borrow the silenced sniper bullet, which is enough to kill him in one shot!
The sight has been locked on Natsuhiku, and the trigger is about to be pulled. Emiya Kiritsugu, who has experienced hundreds of battles, smells the breath of death at this moment.
There was not a moment's delay.
Or the body’s instincts act earlier.
With the magic power gathered all over his body, Emiya Kiritsugu instantly activated the time magic that the Emiya family has studied for generations and passed down through magic seals.
“Inherent time control, three times!”
Complete a small inherent barrier in the body, and by accelerating the blood flow rate, hemoglobin burning rate, etc., allow his own physical skills to reach a level that is impossible to achieve normally, and the surrounding space seems to be suspended relative to him.
Then quickly rolled sideways.
Snapped-
Amidst the sound of bullets hitting the wall behind him, Emiya Kiritsugu hid behind the bunker and gently touched his right cheek. Blood flowed from the wound cut by the bullet wind.
"I almost got shot in the head, sniper?" Emiya Kiritsugu whispered: "The direction is the building at seven o'clock? When I took other people as prey, I unknowingly became someone else's. Prey, there are masters."
He let out a breath and picked up the phone and dialed: "Illya, if there is an accident, under the premise of ensuring your own safety, let Hercules play with Black Rider for a while. It is best not to force the other party to recall Black Berserker. .”
"Kiritsugu! Are you okay..."
"Well, don't worry about me." Emiya Kiritsugu said: "Do as I say. If Black's Berserker returns, evacuate immediately!"
…
“It seems like everything is bustling.”
At Weber Base, Lion Jie Jieli was lying on the sofa picking his teeth with a toothpick, observing all sides through his familiar, and said these words.
Opposite him, Weber controlled the clairvoyance magic to switch angles of observation, nodded solemnly, and at the same time touched his newly full belly with his hand.
Over there, King Arthur and Mordred haven't eaten yet and are still fighting fiercely.
The Conqueror King was pouring himself a drink and asked Ji Xing, who was clearing the table, if he knew how to make wine. He was more interested in this than in tonight's battle.
Weber has become accustomed to ignoring them. The Star Rise Rice Bowl and the Tomb of Heroes are already an irreversible fact. Even he is unwilling to start work without eating, but he believes that if he really encounters the situation, those few It will still be reliable.
“The serious King of Heroes is actually so powerful. Saying that he was careless and defeated ten years ago is not an excuse to save face.”
Even so, even though the King of Heroes was serious about it ten years ago, Weber still felt that Tong Yuan would win...it was too powerful to defeat the evil sect.
“As for Arjuna, the great Indian demigod hero who fought against the King of Heroes... something is wrong.”
It’s not that the strength is wrong, but that the method and function of being summoned are wrong.
Dimlet's Berserker was instantly killed by the King of Heroes last night and left the field. Today, he got the Command Seal to summon the heroic spirit again. It can only be the church controlling everything behind the scenes.
The church gave him a command spell and a holy relic, allowing him to summon the powerful mad-level Arjuna. Judging from the conversation with Lord Marisbili during the day, this was a real move by the church.
But ‘taking action’ should not just muddy the waters.
Arjuna obviously could be the ace, but he was left as cannon fodder to the Pantel brothers. Being able to fight the King of Heroes does not mean that you can win. In any case, you may lose more.
Then why do you do this? It can't possibly be to call out a qualified opponent who can cooperate and embody the power of the King of Heroes, right?
“What is the real goal…?”
Weber's brain was running at high speed, and he suddenly raised his head in horror and said: "Lion Jie, do you think the Holy Grail system can summon more heroic spirits?"
"More? No way. Counting this new Berserker, a total of 16 people will appear in the Fuyuki Holy Grail War this time. It's amazing to say the least..." Shishi Jie responded and became serious thoughtfully: "Extreme Already?"
Ji Xing, who was washing the dishes in the kitchen, turned his head. Weber's little mind was really smart. He didn't even think of the real purpose of all this until he was halfway through the meal.
But it’s okay, don’t worry about it, it won’t work.
But...his palms stirred up the water.
The newly developed ‘forbidden spell’ magic is not yet mature, but it may be used tonight.
…
The magic base underneath the prison.
Fardius is also observing the outside world through clairvoyance magic, with a smile on his lips.
The time is probably ripe.
Which one is more likely to break, a loose string or a taut string? Even if you find a junior high school student, he will give you the answer of "tight string".
There are only four spiritual veins in Fuyuki City, and the Holy Grail has only accumulated 60 years of spiritual power.
Starting the Holy Grail War and having 15 heroic spirits appear is already the limit. The 16th heroic spirit is the last straw that puts more pressure on the Holy Grail!
The string is too tight.
Especially Ruler who can directly use the magic power of the Holy Grail. Astraea also experienced a fierce battle and used a lot of magic power. In the fierce battle between Arjuna and the King of Heroes, not all of them used their master's magic power!
At this time, as long as a little external force is applied, the string will snap and break!
“Okay, it’s time to take action.” He gave instructions to the other end of the familiar.
Put the last bit of pressure on this string and let the Holy Grail system malfunction and break!
All excess heroic spirits will be withdrawn, and only those with the ability to survive will be left behind! Choosing the magician Medea to capture is not random!
“Ha, how many will be left? Let’s make the situation clear, magicians~”
Two updates 7k3. There are so many characters that it would be impossible not to write about them, so we can only add more and overdo it. There will be two more updates tomorrow, and the climax is about to begin. Ji Xing goes on a killing spree, and after exiting the scene, the plot will be concise and clear.
