Chapter Fifty-Six: The Stage of Reset

For the original world of Fate/Apocrypha, the showdown between Joan of Arc and Amakusa Shiro will bring the story of the Holy Grail War to a close.

For Li Ji, who wants to change all this, this is not a decisive battle, but only an inflection point, a turning point to reopen the Holy Grail War.

Whatever it is, it's a big battle, but though, maybe it's the previous changes to the plot that make this battle not as grand as it was originally imagined...

In the morning, the servant and master who participated in the battle had already moved towards the Fortress of Mirenia under the leadership of Joan of Arc, and spent several hours approaching the place where the fierce fighting had broken out a few days ago, and the peaceful and dead ruins came into view.

"Will the decisive battle take place in such a scenario?" Many servants sighed in their hearts, and if it ended like this, it would be a little too bland.

As a heroic spirit, if it starts and ends like this, it is completely inconsistent with what they are pursuing.

But—

At the front, Caron stopped, "Everyone, there is a change in the city of Mirenya. ”

Everyone watched the scene in the distance, and after a few seconds, they all exclaimed in amazement.

"The Fortress, how is it completely repaired, and why do we see so many androids, alchemy golems, and puppets in the open forest, aren't they all dead in the vanity of the air courtyard of the opposing army?"

No, very wrong, almost all of them thought that in their hearts, until they noticed that it was slightly unreal.

"Is it an illusion?" Charon voiced his guess.

"Shakespeare's Treasures!" Li Ji saw through everything and said loudly, "The time has come for the show to start, and I applaud like thunder!" As a writer, he creates an illusory world to invite enemies to participate, and has the characteristics of an inherent enchantment, which makes us see a completely different appearance from the perceived Myrenia Fortress. ”

"But-" Li Ji's voice paused, and he still felt that something was wrong in his heart, "This treasure has no real lethality, and it has no effect on very ordinary heroic spirits. ”

As they got closer, as they had guessed, all the miscellaneous soldiers on the battlefield were illusions, and they crossed unscathed to the foot of the city.

Shakespeare appears on the city walls.

"Welcome, servants who have come to the crusade, do you feel much better in the face of this new Myrenia Stronghold? This is the stage that my generation has prepared especially for you! ”

"Completely rebuilt, even if it is an illusion, at least it is more combative than the ruins and corpses, so ah, let's usher in a vigorous decisive battle!"

Shakespeare appeared and soon disappeared.

"Guys, it looks like Shakespeare really wants to make the battlefield look good, and we don't have to be too careful." Joan of Arc reminds everyone.

The rest of the servants understood, "I see, since such an illusion cannot interfere with our battle, even if it is immersed in it, it is not for the sake of beauty. ”

As they spoke, the gates of the fortress opened, and a fifteen-meter-tall primordial human dragged its majestic body towards them.

"Master, I'll go first!" Mordred had been waiting for the giant for a long time, and she remembered the glorious experience of following her father Artoria's army on an expedition to Europe against Lucius, the sword emperor who ruled Rome, and one of them was the hunt of giants in the Michael.

In the face of such an enemy, she has no fear, and when she is like that, she can cut them all open!

Ziggy and Astolfo saw Mordred rushing forward and followed, ready to support at any moment's notice.

Immediately afterward, in the middle of another city gate, Achilles' chariot appeared, galloping across the open battlefield, wanton and flamboyant.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to have to fight!" Charon greeted Joan of Arc, and he looked at Fiore, who was supporting him farther away, and the figure disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The sixth director, Lingxia and Jack, are missing, as assassins, it makes no sense to appear on the frontal battlefield, they will fight in their own way.

Li Ji looked back at the empty battlefield where there were still Marda, Joan of Arc, plus Big Elijah, Little Black, and Frankenstein.

Marda's scepter and robe disappeared at some point, freeing her fists and fully entering the state of the legendary dragon slayer.

"Lord Marda, do you want it?" Joan of Arc was shocked to see such a lightly armed saint.

"Kill into the Stronghold." Marda called out to Tarask, and a huge dragon shadow burst into the air, with a menacing appearance and a docile posture, prostrate on the ground, lowering her body as much as possible to welcome Marda's arrival.

"Ride a dragon and go straight into the Stronghold? It's a good idea. "Li Ji originally thought that Marda was not planning to launch the Noble Phantasm Rage of the Dragon of Sorrow, but the one who also had to cooperate with Tarask, directly blasted open the city fortress and opened an unimpeded avenue.

It seems that I was thinking wrong.

"That's right, master, relying on Tarask, we will get to where Amakusa Shiro is sooner and accomplish our purpose."

Joan of Arc did not perceive the slight difference between Marda's stated purpose and her own, and what change it would bring, "In that case, I will follow behind Master Marda. ”

Step by step, she climbed onto the dragon.

Li Ji jumped on the back of the dragon and beckoned to the big Illya and Xiao Hei on the other side, the two loli don't look at the usual boldness, when they saw Tarask, they were still a little weak in their hands and feet, and it took a while to stand firm.

Instead, Frankenstein followed without pressure.

Then Tarask's wings spread out, overwhelming, and headed for the vain courtyard in the sky above the Stronghold, where Amakusa Shiro would never be in the Stronghold beneath his feet, but by the Great Holy Grail.

As if restoring the state of Semiramis when he was still there, around the courtyard, the magic trick specially used for attacking, the black coffin of ten and one, each shot was equivalent to a meteorite falling, constantly sending shocking attacks towards them.

In the face of the whistling light bombs, Li Ji, Xiao Hei, and Da Illya realized how lucky they were to deal with Semiramis in advance, otherwise if she was allowed to stay in the courtyard, the city fortress would not be able to be conquered at all, not to mention that according to the original plot, the Void Aerial Courtyard reached an altitude of 7,500 meters, and even a human plane could not easily reach such a height.
