Chapter Eighty-Five: Saber vs. Lancer

This is a warehouse street that borders the eastern part of the seaside park, and at night it is almost deserted, with dim lights illuminating the street and unmanned cranes lined up neatly along the seashore.

It's perfect for a duel between the Servants.

Saber and her opponent stared at each other, standing in the middle of the road lined with large cargo boxes and streetlights.

Alice Phil stood behind Saber.

"It's finally here! I've been waiting for a long time! You're the only one who responds to me!"

The gunman on the opposite side spoke.

Holding a long spear wrapped around a cloth of about two meters and pointing it at Saber, and holding a gun about one meter four in the other hand.

He only pointed at Saber, but he didn't have a fighting posture and provoked with a calm expression.

"Look at this clear fighting spirit, you ...... Saber, presumably!"

"Exactly, you're a lancer!"

"That's right! It's a disappointment not to be able to name the opponent who is going to fight to the death. Lancer said, waving the two spears in his hand.

"Ah~ I can understand, this is also a strategy, so please forgive me for not being able to give my name. Saber's magic power was released, and he transformed into a beautiful suit of armor and raised the invisible sword wrapped in the wind in his hand. "Needless to say, let's make a move!

"Just what I want!"

"Hoo ......"

"Bell !!!!!"

The two of them narrowed the distance in an instant, with the sound of tearing the air, spears and swords fiercely attacking.

Feet on the ground crush the earth.

The air pressure when the blade swings slashes the streetlamp.

The ultra-high-speed movement makes Alice Phil's naked eye no longer able to catch it.

The wind howled.

The iron sheets of the cargo boxes that had fallen off from the aftermath of the battle were swept away by the wind.

"Bell!" "Bell!" "Bell!" "Bell!"

- It's so strong......

Shortly after entering the fight, Lancer was already forced to concentrate on his opponent.

In terms of weapons, the lancer has two guns, both offensive and defensive, and has a fairly wide range of attacks, and Saber has to watch out for two spears at the same time, because he doesn't know which one is a treasure, so he has to be very careful.

And the weapons on Saber's side are also a big headache for Lancer.

Because the lancer can't see Saber's sword. A large amount of air around the sword was gathered by the magic power, and the air that enveloped the sword formed an incredible refraction of light, so it was completely invisible. Although this is not much of a support for the Noble Phantasm, its effect is very noticeable in close combat.

Lancer is attacked by an invisible sword, while his own attack is blocked by an equally invisible sword.

The only way to close the gap between the two spears is to close the gap between the two spears.

However...... Elsewhere, the Lancer was not so lucky.

In terms of ability, Lancer found that Saber's strength was much higher than his own, and he was barely on par with her in terms of speed, so I'm afraid that the opponent's master was an extremely good magician.

And what surprised Lancer the most was Saber's swordsmanship.

There is no doubt that Saber is definitely better than himself in terms of combat skills.

This is also the biggest factor why Lancer finds it tricky.

And Saber's side......

- This kind of combat technique, if it weren't for the many training sessions with the master in the past few days, it should be similar to me, and it seems to be a good hand!

Through Karn's tempering, Saber's swordsmanship has improved in the past few days, and he has been able to suppress Lancer in battle.

- That's a lot compared to the master!

"Bell !!!!"

A powerful swing of the sword unleashed Lancer's longer spear and slashed it off the chest.

Although Lancer blocked the sword with a shorter gun, because he was holding the gun in one hand, and because he was inferior to Saber in terms of strength, this sword made Lancer extremely difficult, and he was knocked back and slid out several meters, and his left hand with a slightly shorter gun trembled helplessly.

"You're really a good opponent! If I had faced you before, I would have gone through a hard battle, but it's a pity that you met me now. Saber held his sword in front of him and said freely.

"Ah...... Ah......" Lancer put his guns in a hideous stance, not only did not flinch at Saber's words, but became even more imposing. "Although I don't know your name, I must be a famous soldier in history, and I am very honored to meet such a good player as you on this trip to the Far East, as a knight!"

"Heh~ Since I am also a knight, I am honored to accept your praise!"

"That's enough!lancer!Don't waste any more time! That Saber is tough to deal with, I'll allow you to use the Noble Phantasm. Suddenly, in the middle of the empty road, a voice sounded from nowhere.

"Lancer's ...... Master?" Saber and Alice Phil were wary at the same time.

"Yes, my master!" Lancer replied to the voice from nowhere, suddenly in a tone of extreme respect.

Then, he casually threw the spear at his feet, and the long cloth wrapped around the spear in his right hand flew away like dust, and the light distorted, revealing the hideous spear that emitted an ominous red light hidden under the long cloth.

This action made Saber deliberately lower his body. "The spear...... It's the ?!! of the treasure."

Lancer adjusted his stance and put on an extremely sharp posture, bursting out.

Intentionally or unintentionally, the foot that stamped on the ground kicked up a puff of sand and dust, quietly burying the short gun that fell on the ground slightly.

Lancer struck quickly, however, compared to the previous brilliant marksmanship, this straight blow was too shallow.

"Bell!" Saber just flicked the spear away. is preparing to launch a counterattack......

Centered on the opposing spears and swords, a whirlwind rolled up without warning.

"Hmm?!" In order to beware of the strange abilities of the other party's treasure, Saber carefully chose to be conservative.

However, it was just a gust of wind, only for a moment, and it was not any other magic. But the question is where the wind came from, as it was clearly not caused by Lancer's gun.

"Heh......" At this point, Lancer chuckled. "Your sword, exposed!"

"!!!" just when Saber was vigilant......

"Drink!" Lancer struck again.

"Bell!!" "Bell!"......

The exquisite spear skills are used coherently, no longer hesitate, every move is calculated accurately, no longer tied down because you can't see Saber's sword clearly, and there is no longer superfluous movements. Coupled with Saber's slightly conservative tactics at this time, Lancer suddenly gained the upper hand.

As the battle continued, the wind on Saber's sword became more and more messy, and in an instant, the remnant of a golden sword appeared in a flicker.

- He...... See my sword?!!

- The gun...... Cracked the Wind King's barrier!!

"I see...... Can your Noble Phantasm break seals or enchantments or defenses?" said Saber in the midst of a fierce battle. "Or can you cut off magic or something?"

"What a sharp one!!, but which one is it? Why don't you try it for yourself?"

- In that case.

In the face of another blow, Saber blocked it with skillful sword skills and flicked the spear aside, taking advantage of this, his left hand quickly reached out and slid over the tip of the spear that had been removed.

The hand armor wrapped around his left hand, and at that moment, Saber felt that the hand armor seemed to disappear, and there was a very shallow scar on the palm of his left hand.

"I see, it seems, it's cutting off the magic! that's what your gun does!"

Saber said firmly.

"Woo ......" didn't expect his treasure ability to be grasped by Saber with such a delicate tactic, Lancer snorted as if he was extremely unwilling, and then quietly took a few steps back with a very vigilant look. What no one noticed was that Lancer was standing where he had dropped his gun.

"What's the matter? Is this a retreat?lancer?!!! This is not the knight's doing!" Saber shouted, freeing the armor formed by the release of mana, because Lancer's gun can cut off mana, so this armor not only has no effect, but because it needs to be maintained with mana, it restricts Saber.

Unleashed by the armor, Saber infused the magic she used to maintain the armor into her limbs and the weapons in her hands, so that her strength and speed were almost sixty percent higher than usual, and each blow contained more powerful destructive power.

"Drink!" Not only that, but Saber, who had liberated his armor, once again unlocked the barrier of the sword in his hand.

The sword, which had been distorted by wind and light and could not be seen, was now shining in the night sky.

This is the second role of the Wind King Enchantment. The moment you unlock the barrier, the wind will attack the enemy mercilessly like a weapon, but this is also an attack method that can only be used once.

Originally, the "Wind King Enchantment" was cracked by Lancer's treasure, and it was pointless to cover it up, so Saber simply used it to strengthen this attack.

The furious wind released from the golden sword pushed Saber, and with the magic surging all over his body, Saber rushed towards Lancer with great speed.

"Retreat?!! are you slandering my knightly ways?!! even if it is the famous King Arthur, you are too rude!!!" As King Arthur's golden sword, Lancer could not be mistaken. Undaunted by Saber, who rushed in front of him almost instantly, Lancer let go of his right hand, and stabbed Saber straight at Saber with a spear in his left hand.

This move left the empty door on Lancer's right.

Although it is impossible for a lancer who knows that he is skilled in gunsmithing to make such a low-level mistake, Saber is unlikely to let go of such an obvious flaw.

Swinging the golden sword, the extremely strong wind pressure barely cleared the red spear that cut off the magic, and slashed towards Lancer's chest.

Lancer sneered at the heart of the blow, and then ......

The right foot that was stuck in the sand suddenly lifted up!

Flying with the movement of the right foot is ......

A short gun that had been buried in the sand before!

And at this moment, in the flying dust, the cloth wrapped around the short spear had disappeared, and the golden magic spear flew up, and the tip of the spear was pointed directly at Saber's heart.

"Bell!" The sword that took Lancer's chest couldn't be recovered, but it slashed straight downward, blocking the deadly attack of the yellow magic spear.

Although he avoided a direct attack, the sword he swung also made Saber reveal a flaw at this time.

Because the perishable Yellow Rose failed to kill Saber, the unwilling Lancer concentrated all his strength on his left hand, and the demon-breaking Red Rose slashed down at Saber's neck.

“!!!!”

In the face of this fatal blow that struck again, Saber leaned back in an extremely reluctant posture.

"Poof!"

The demon-breaking Red Rose did not remove Saber's head as Lancer intended, but it left a deep scar on Saber's right arm.

Lancer's spear in his left hand pointed out again, and his right foot also picked up the short spear that had fallen to the ground, and his right hand caught it.

"Bell!" Saber, who fell to the ground, relied on his left hand that was not badly injured to block the blow, and then rolled on the ground, quickly stood up, and distanced himself from Lancer, and the magic power was released again, forming an armor to cover his body. At the cost of a heavy blow to his right arm, he survived this series of killing moves.
