Chapter 178: The Yellow Rose That Must Be Perished
Saber decides to split the winner with the final blow regardless of the result, and everyone sees her decision on her face.
"The final blow, is this what is called an all-or-nothing bet?"
Lancer said with a look of contentment in a nostalgic tone, but there was obvious nervousness in his words.
"The disadvantage of failing armor is transformed into the advantage of giving up armor. ”
Indeed, although Saber has no armor, for Saber, who has the [Unleash Magic] skill to increase her attack power, she does not need to maintain the armor with magic power, but her strength has been improved.
"I don't hate that brave, crisp decision, but that's a big mistake in the current situation, Saber. ”
Lancer was condescending to provoke Saber, but only a few people knew that Lancer's long-prepared lore awaited Saber.
Of course, Saber just took this sentence as unwilling to accept the failure of Lancer's attack: "It's hard to say, if you want to give advice, just wait until you can take my trick." ”
Step by step, Saber approached Lancer, who was backing away until Lancer stepped on a piece of ground made of sand grains that were supposed to have been rolled up from the asphalt road by the battle between the two men. Lancer's movements paused.
Saber seized the "opportunity", she never thought it was all Lancer's trap.
Saber sped herself up by opening the Wind King's barrier and used the power of her whole body to unleash her magic, and her body had turned into a supersonic cannonball, leaving a golden trail in the air.
The high-speed rush of several times more than the sound wave broke the surrounding atmospheric wall, and the shock wave blew away the surrounding rubble and leaves without a trace.
As Saber approached Lancer's body, Lancer's legs moved. At this time, Saber also discovered that Lancer's flaw was faked by him, and he did not accidentally fall into the sand pit, but deliberately stepped into it.
That was where Lancer had thrown his shotgun away.
Lancer kicked the sand from his feet, but instead of the sand, it was the short gun that Lancer had thrown away. The blade was facing the direction Saber was flying from. The spell on the spear has also been unraveled, revealing a golden body under the spell.
At this moment, Saber also knew that she had made a mistake.
There wasn't necessarily just one Noble Phantasm, and that Lancer might have been a heroic spirit who was terrified by the "two magic guns".
Before Lancer's spear slashed through Saber's throat, Saber forced his attack to avoid death, while also cutting a wound in Lancer's left arm.
Of course, Saber herself could not be unscathed, after all, her opponent was not inferior to her Heroic Spirit, and she was the one who set up such a scheme.
Reintroducing the sword in his hand into the Wind King's barrier, Saber began to estimate his injuries.
Saber then realizes that the tendon in his left arm has been severed by Lancer, and his thumb is no longer able to exert force.
However, it doesn't matter, as long as the Servant with the support of the magician is not seriously injured and dying, he can heal himself with healing magic, and such injuries can be healed in an instant, as it should be.
However, while Lancer's injuries have healed, Saber's injuries show no signs of improving.
"It's good that you can perceive that armor is useless in front of my [Demon Breaker's Red Rose]. ”
Perhaps it was concluded that after showing the efficacy of the treasure, there was no need to hide it. Lancer didn't hesitate to say his Phantasm's real name.
"But you're being too rash to throw away your armor. If you hadn't discarded the armor, you would have been able to resist the Perishable Yellow Rose・・・・・・"
Lancer said as he picked up the yellow gun that had fallen to the ground from being slashed.
"I see・・・・・・ it's a gun with a spell attached to it, and once stabbed by it, the wound will never heal. I should have noticed this sooner・・・・・・"
Saber should have been alert when Lancer took out two guns, not to mention that Lancer's real name is still a character from Celtic mythology associated with Saber, but she still fell for Lancer's scheme, and I have to say that this is indeed a bit incredible.
"The Knights of Fiona, the First Warrior・・・・・・ Dilumudo of [Radiant Appearance]. I didn't expect to have the honor to fight you. ”
"That's the wonder of the Holy Grail War・・・・・・ but I'm the one who feels honored. As long as you travel through time and space and are summoned to the [Throne of the Valreal], you will never be mistaken about your golden sword. ”
As a person who has developed [Knight] all the way to the pinnacle, everyone who thinks of himself as a knight will remember the name of the Knight King.
"Being able to compete with the famous Knight King, and still have a slight upper hand, it seems that I am still favored by God. ”
I have to say that Lancer is still very proud to be able to take advantage of the hands of the Knight King.
"Well, now that we know each other's names, we can finally have a real duel with the courtesy of a knight, or are you unhappy that you were taken off a hand first?" Saber. ”
In the face of Lancer's provocation, Saber simply re-condensed the silver-white armor: "Joke. If you feel sorry for me because of such a small injury, it is an insult to me. ”
The two men re-put themselves in a stance, ready to fight again.
"Come to your senses, Saber, I'm going to knock you down this time!"
"I'd better save that sentence until I'm knocked down. Lancer!”
At the moment when the battle was about to break out, a thunderclap pierced the sky, interrupting the battle that was about to begin.
The two Servants looked together into the southeast sky, and could see an antique chariot with two fronts, approaching it from the air. The bull tethered to the wheels of the chariot stepped on lightning and moved forward in the air.
Undoubtedly, this is the third Servant to intervene in the duel between Saber and Lancer, which is why he suddenly appeared.
While everyone in the field was guarding the chariot, Mikoto Misaka asked Shirai Tsuki: "Tsuki! That person just said that Saber is the Knight King? The legendary Knight King?
It's no wonder Mikoto Misaka is so excited, anyway, there are some myths and stories that you will know even if you are not interested, because it is a legend that everyone is singing, and the legend of the Knight King is among them.
However, Mikoto Misaka now feels that her three views are ruined, and the legendary knight king is actually a woman?
Bai Jingyue had no choice but to shrug her shoulders: "That's right, judging from that golden sword, Saber is indeed the legendary Knight King, but why is she so surprised? This is not the original world, not to mention how many parallel worlds there are, and how many of them are male and female, in terms of behavior alone, her exploits are indeed done by the legendary King Arthur, so she is King Arthur, isn't she?"
Mikoto Misaka smiled bitterly, although Shirai Yue explained, Mikoto Misaka still felt that she had to digest the news, but then again, how would Lola react if she knew the news?
After a short period of thought, Mikoto Misaka was attracted by the new Servant, and with the same ability as her, Mikoto Misaka was still a little interested.
However, Mikoto Misaka obviously didn't expect that it was not the Servant who came here who had the ability to thunder, but his mount・・・・・・
