17. Holy Grail War (5)
"Brother Cúchulainn, you-"
"If you're here to be a lobbyist, you might as well keep your mouth shut, the big war is coming, and save a little bit of physical strength. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" Before I could finish speaking, the blue-haired hero of Irish lore interrupted me.
Belch...... Why do people I know have a tendency to read minds?
So I had to retreat and ask him why he refused to re-enter into a new contract with Bazet.
"I have my dignity." Perhaps the liquor I brought with him was to his taste, and after drinking a bottle of wine, Cú Chulainn finally spoke his heart.
Bazet had always admired him, and he knew it.
He admired this simple and straightforward woman, as if he were seeing himself in a mirror.
However, when she was plotted and collapsed in grief, he could only watch her slowly die in his arms.
Not only can't he avenge her, but he even has to rely on others to save her.
Facing her who came to take revenge, he actually had to fight each other.
"Do you think that after this kind of thing, I will still be able to brazenly make a contract with her again?" Cú Chulainn, who seemed a little drunk, unbuttoned his shirt and bare his broad chest in the cold wind of the snowy country, laughing as he poured the liquor as if it were plain water.
"I am Cú Chulainn, the child of light of Ireland!"
When Achilles appeared ghostly with a horde of dragontooth soldiers, Cúthalamine dropped his almost bottomed bottle, raised a spear of the same color as his hair, and yelled at the heavily armed son of the sea god: "Achilles! It just so happens that the uncle is in a good mood, come and accompany me for a few tricks! ”
With a roar, the blue spear and the golden short spear slammed together, with the two spear knights as the center, the ground cracked inch by inch, and although the dragontooth soldiers nearby were fully armed, in front of the shockwave generated by the confrontation between the two legendary heroes, they were nothing more than wooden clay sculptures, and they exploded into countless pieces.
Odd! I remember that night, the magicians of the Einzberen family must have been corroded into skeletons by the black mist of calamity flowing from the "Pandora's Box", why do these heroic spirits who have lost their contracts still exist? And with such amazing combat effectiveness?
…… I'd better leave this kind of problem to the professionals, I just need to try to defeat the enemy!
With a loud roar, I swung my great axe and leaped to my feet, slashing at Ajax's petal shield and slamming him out.
"Evil comes to Dian Wei here!" I kicked a nearby dragontooth soldier into a meteor, and I roared at the dragontooth soldiers who rushed in line.
"Whoever wants to die, just let the horse come!"
Obviously, even if each of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers has the strength of a hundred elite battles, to me, who has already set foot in the field of "inhuman", they are just a group of cannon fodder.
When Cangyang Gyatso summoned a large number of Yakshas, demons and the like to help, the dragon tooth soldiers were not even cannon fodder.
But...... That Medea was able to summon so many dragontooth soldiers?
It's a little strange, could it be that the last time she fought with Cangyang Gyatso, she actually retained some strength?
"There's a new Heroic Spirit here." Medusa appeared beside me at some point, and she shot the chain spikes continuously, piercing one dragon tooth soldier after another, "It should be Cadmus, and he is the only one who can summon dragon tooth soldiers except Medea." ”
"It's obviously a Greek, but she has thrown herself into the enemy's camp, and the banshee is really a spineless creature."
The man who said this was a handsome young man who suddenly appeared in the camp of the Dragon's Tooth, he was not wearing armor, but wrapped in a lion's skin like Hercules, this heroic spirit I had never seen carried a bright red spear in his right hand, but his left hand was constantly sprinkling some small particles on the ground, and then a group of well-armed soldiers crawled out of the dirt, shouting in a language I did not understand, and rushed over.
Medusa didn't mean to argue with him, but sneered and ripped off the blindfold.
Icy murderous aura.
As far as the eye could see, the dragon's tooth soldiers all turned into stiff stone statues.
Cadmus was clearly prepared for this, and almost at the same time that Medusa cast his magic eye, he covered himself with a lion's skin.
But he forgot one thing: it wasn't just the MONOCULUS that could threaten him.
Therefore, this heroic spirit who did not know the rank was shot through the head by a flying halberd before he could actually make a move.
I'm not Dian Wei, and I don't have a legendary hidden weapon skill like "Throwing Halberd", let alone a Noble Halberd that can shoot Heroic Spirits. But those halberds are real treasures, and they all hide charms with the "sure to hit" attribute.
According to the theory of magic, the effect of this spell depends on the contrast between the "lucky" of the two parties.
If it were still in the age of mythology, it would be difficult to tell who was more fortunate between the hero beloved by the goddess Athena and the goddess of Kasuga, who was loved - unfortunately, the times were different!
Will the goddess Athena in this era favor the guy who wants to kill her fellow travelers?
It's a pity that the number of charms is limited, and the Noble Phantasm Flying Halberd was able to temporarily exist in the world thanks to Emiya Shirou's projection magic, otherwise with this trick alone, I would be able to kill most of the other party's Heroic Spirits!
Before I could take out the halberd again, a golden light that was almost invisible had already arrived in front of me.
Hercules!
Fortunately, it's not a poisoned arrow.
But looking at the heroic spirit who was dressed in neat armor, with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other, striding like a mountain, I could only sigh.
Among the heroic spirits that appeared this time, the only opponent who made me helpless was the most powerful hero in this Greek mythology.
"Dian Wei, I can't imagine that you can survive after touching Pandora's box!" Hercules looked at me with some confusion, his gaze as if he wanted to penetrate the armor and see me for what I really was, "You've made me feel like you've underestimated your opponent time and time again—hopefully this is the last time." ”
The huge figure completely ignored the distance of more than a hundred meters between us, and rushed in front of me in an instant.
Blocking the greatsword in his hand was a silver-white knight's saber.
King Arthur, who arrived in time, completely ignored the huge difference in their physiques and took Hercules' impressive attack hard.
The two swords clashed, emitting a deafening roar.
The shock wave shook the ground, and the scattered snow turned the surroundings into a white expanse.
"You...... Not human, right? Hercules withdrew his greatsword and made a judgment in a tone of uncertainty that said, "Pure human beings cannot have such power!" ”
"Are you pure human?" King Arthur had put on the simple golden armor of his sword, and after the smile that often hung on his lips was gone, he was no longer a neighbor's big brother, but a majestic king, and what surprised me the most was his eyes.
It wasn't a human eye, it was a reptilian eye; Not his usual black eyes, but the color of a flame of red.
Longan!
"It's the first time in so many years that I've met an opponent with the same strength as myself...... Hercules looked pleased, swinging his greatsword again.
Rumble!
The two swords clashed, and the terrifying shockwave forced me to retreat even temporarily.
The surrounding houses made a miserable sound, and a large number of cracks appeared in the walls that were resistant to earthquakes.
However, King Arthur remained unwavering.
"It's the first time I've met an opponent of equal strength...... Me too. ”
The silver-white knight's sword drew an arc and took the initiative to meet the giant sword.
"Whether the power of the dragon is stronger, or the power of the gods is stronger - prove it with a sword!"
Rumble!
Finally, there was only a blank space around them!
And the full combat power of the Einzberen family has finally appeared from all directions.
Dozens of magicians, each accompanied by a heroic spirit.
They didn't even wait until it got dark this time, it seems that those heroic spirits who don't know how to summon them can't exist for long......
Gripping the giant axe in my hand, I roared and rushed over.
……
This is the tenth? Or the eleventh?
I pulled the axe out of the dissipating Heroic Spirit, looking at the blade that was still as sharp as ever, and admiring the craftsmanship of Lyra's predecessors.
I don't know if the strength of those temporary summoned Heroic Spirits is too weak, or if my skills have improved by leaps and bounds, during this period of battle, except for the few Ancient Greek Heroic Spirits I met last night, ordinary Heroic Spirits are not vulnerable in front of me at all.
Their strength is far worse than mine!
But with the passage of time, the problem of insufficient combat effectiveness of our side gradually emerged:
King Arthur and Hercules are still in a fierce battle, and it is still impossible to see who will win and who will lose for the time being. Fortunately, thanks to him, the enemy could not approach the gate of the Wei Palace, and the entire Wei Palace, except for that door, other places have long been distorted by Cangyang Gyatso with the secret method, and no one can think of passing through, if it is not for this, Kasuga, Tsuruhime, Sakura, and Shinji, who have not yet been able to recover their combat effectiveness, are afraid that there will be danger.
After all, Cú Chulainn was no match for the invulnerable Achilles - no matter in martial arts or noble feats, he would not lose to his opponents, but he would be wounded, and Achilles would not ...... So the longer he fought, the more the situation turned against him.
Medusa summoned Pegasus the Pegasus, and the knight and Pegasus turned into a meteor and galloped across the battlefield, invincible, not to mention the dragontooth soldiers, even those temporary heroic spirits could not stop her. However, there were several shooters among the opposing Heroic Spirits, and after being almost shot several times in a row, she could only do some auxiliary battles because she was not lightly injured.
Bazet used the backlight sword to kill a few temporary Heroic Spirits, but the physical fitness of humans and Heroic Spirits cannot be compared after all, so she has basically lost her combat effectiveness now, but fortunately, at least with her, the enemy will not dare to use the powerful Noble Phantasm, so as not to be killed by her......
At this time, I especially miss Okada and Monk Grinchen......
Unfortunately, they have disappeared due to the erosion of the black mist of calamity.
The Einzberen family, these habitual cheating guys!
With a deep grudge, I picked up my axe and smashed it against Hector's shield, knocking him out and leaving deep scars on the heavy shield.
However, I couldn't finish him.
Damn it!
That bastard of Ajax is coming up with a petal shield again!
Have the ability to get out of behind the turtle shell!
I roared and smashed the guy back who would only hide behind his shield, and by the way, cut down a Heroic Spirit who didn't know what it was called.
Damn bastards! Sooner or later, I'm going to blow you up one by one! Bombard to the scum!
