As night fell, a sense of darkness enveloped the surroundings, especially on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, where the trees were dense and opaque.

There was no sunlight, no street lights, to put it bluntly, not even a little light. Reaching out and not seeing the five fingers, this is the case.

Of course, the so-called inability to see in the dark is only for ordinary people, and Saber and others, who are heroic spirits or magicians, do not have this problem. It's just that even if everyone is not an ordinary person, the trace of darkness and unhappiness that lingers in the heart cannot be completely erased after all.

On the bodies of the people, they were covered with a large piece of pale black cloth. If Emiya Shirou was here, he might have immediately recognized that this was the prototype of Robin Hood's stealth treasure, but some others didn't have this eyesight. When Gilgamesh took it out with an unhappy face and said that he wanted to cover it, Saber and the others didn't quite understand what it was for, and it wasn't until Gilgamesh showed him what the cloth was for, and Saber and the others went in and covered it with Gilgamesh.

Stealth, blocking the breath, plus the strength that is already superior to the other party, for Saber and others, who are not good at fine operations and are not good at laying down techniques, there is really no more suitable method for ambush warfare than this, if the area of the black cloth is really a little insufficient, and now the three people hiding in the black cloth are huddled together, and one of them is gritting his teeth, swearing that after he returns, he will let the imperial craftsman find a way to double the size of this cloth.

Of course, if he had changed the guy who had become unusually black when he faced the enemy, he would have at least set up at least forty or fifty triggered blasting traps for evil creatures, and twenty or thirty chain chain imprisoning runes for monsters, and then set up the entire area as a territory for spatial blocking, so as to prevent any behavior of using teleportation to escape when he saw that something was wrong.

It's a pity that because this guy is too soft-hearted and wants to prevent Joan of Arc, who has been inseparable from him for a while, from learning about it, he is the second who is the most proficient in this way, and Tsukiyomi and Aozaki Orange, who are also good at these welcome ceremonies, the former is guarding and resetting the teleportation array of Huangquan, and the latter is delaying Joan of Arc and Emiya Shirou so that they can't notice what is happening, In the end, it can only be ambushed by Saber, three people who have nothing to do with secrecy and delicacy if they lack black cloth, which has to be said to be a pity.

To get back to the point, because when he took out the black cloth, Gilgamesh had already stated in advance that this cloth covered his breath and covered his figure, but he was not separated from the sound, and after covering this cloth, the three of Saber also fell into absolute silence, and did not make any more sound, until

"It's coming"

As the caster of the vigilance technique outside the woods, Aoko Aosaki warned the two of her companions in a mosquito-sized voice.

At the same time, a damp and gloomy atmosphere also swept through the forest on the outskirts of Winterwood City.

"I didn't make an appointment in advance, but with excitement and passion, Gilles de Les de Les came to visit you. May you please meet the beautiful Holy Maiden Joan of Arc?"

The humble and polite speech came out of the mouth of the man with a gentle smile, and even the eyes that always bulged out returned to the position of the eye socket at this moment, and the man who suddenly appeared from the fog, if it were not for such a strange and strange robe, and Saber and the others already knew the true identity of the other party and the related legends, it was really difficult to associate him with the bluebeard who was addicted to blood and couldn't extricate himself.

Gilles de Les, as one of Joan of Arc's former comrades-in-arms who always carried a holy aura, even though he has fallen at this moment, the chivalric etiquette and aristocratic character deeply rooted in his heart have not completely dissipated.

"Ahh As if suddenly thinking of something, Gilles de Les did not forget to add: "Those of your friends who came to my door last night, although there seems to be a little friction and conflict between us, but I, Gilles de Rice, dare to swear that I have absolutely not shown any disrespect to them. Being able to have a long conversation with your friends, Lord Saint Maiden, is really irrelevant. Knowing that you have made so many beautiful friends who match you, this Gilles de Les really has nothing more touching than this! Ahh

Even if he didn't get any response, Gilles de Les's high enthusiasm was not necessarily the slightest bit cool, but the more he talked, the more excited he became.

Word after word of praise came from the fading smile, but it didn't feel like there was any lie in it. There is no doubt that Gilles de Les was genuinely pleased that Joan of Arc, who had been able to devote himself to the battlefield wholeheartedly, had made friends. However, it is precisely because this relief is sincere that it makes people feel doubly sad.

Why did a knight who had so many virtues in the past fall to such a point, even though he knew the truth of the tragedy, he still couldn't help but sigh when he saw the scene in front of him.

"Please take your time. Don't worry, I expected it to be a long wait, so I was prepared accordingly."

A wicked smile finally appeared on Gilles de Les's face, which, combined with the still polite tone, was as discordant as mixing mayonnaise and salt into sugar, and made people shudder.

But when he saw Gilles de Rice, who was standing at the entrance of the woods, snapped his fingers lightly, and more than a dozen children under the age of ten appeared from the fog behind him, Gilles de Les said very softly, "All right, children, hide and seek is about to begin." The rules are simple, just run away from me, how about it? Simple, right? If you can't escape."

As he spoke, the smiling Gilles de Les began to reach out to the nearest child beside him, "Will you die?"

P.S.1: Come to think of it, there really aren't many enemies to fight in this Holy Grail War. It's really pitiful for the marshal to brush the protagonist group alone.
