Chapter 11: Saber and Lancer (Transitional Chapter)

The Weiyuan River is close to the mouth of the sea, and the Dongmu Bridge across both sides of it is a majestic arch bridge with a total length of 665 meters.

The arch is at least fifty meters high, and if one stands on it, one will definitely be blown down into the river by a strong sea breeze. Even skilled workers categorically did not dare to go up empty-handed without a safety rope.

But Webb. Velvet was trembling at the moment, and naturally he didn't even have a safety belt. So now he didn't care about pretending to be his usual solemn and majestic expression.

Beside him, his Servant, Rider, sat there with a majestic expression.

"Rider, go down, hurry up!" Webb said with a shiver because of the cold and fear, but the tall Servant didn't care at all.

It's perfect to keep a sentry here, but for now, let me take a look at the scenery and change my mood.

From time to time, he lifted the bottle of red wine in his hand and took a sip, while staring indifferently at the shore to the west. There is a large seaside park. Although Webb couldn't see it, he knew from Rider's words that the Servant they had spent nearly 4 hours tracking down before should be there.

Rider wanders around the city in order to reach enemies. And just yesterday afternoon, he sensed the breath of that Servant.

Webber wanted to go straight to the front, but Rider was just watching his opponent from afar. Rider only snorted from his nose when he was questioned by Webb.

"That's obviously luring us out, how can no one find out that the other party's breath is so obvious. It's not just me, I'm afraid other servants are watching them as well. If we wait and see what happens, maybe some of the anxious masters will do something. That's what I'm waiting for. ”

Weber's strategy made sense, even surprised, to Rider's strategy. This tall man, who looks bold and upright on the outside, still has such a careful mind.

Indeed, as Rider said, wait and see what happens, and wait for the person who acts rashly and the other party's sandpiper clam dispute. Although I don't know what kind of strength this Servant who is provoking has, since he has the courage to challenge, he is certainly willing to accept it. Then, as long as two of the two sides are defeated, Rider can attack and defeat the winning side, and he can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Okay, that's it. The other party has been wandering around the city, while Webb and Rider are following them at a distance.

However, although I can understand the meaning of the phrase standing tall and seeing far, no matter how high it is, there must be a limit. Let's not talk about Servant, let's take an ordinary person as an example, if you fall from here, you will definitely die. Rider must know this, but why would he even run over to Webb's safety?

"It's falling! No, let me down! I can't stand it! ”

"Don't worry, can't you calm down? Waiting for the right moment is also a form of fighting. ”

Rider said in a nonchalant tone as he sipped his drink, ignoring Webb's face that was about to burst into tears. It seems that there is no consensus between the two that high places are dangerous.

"If you're really that free, just read my book, good book."

Hearing this, Webb remembered the resentful weight of his backpack. Obviously, when I had to reduce my luggage, I actually stuffed a thick and heavy poetry book in my bag.

It was a book that Rider had stolen from the library when he first arrived. It is the Iliad written by the ancient Greek poet Homer, in which the narrative poem records the battle of the gods and men called the Trojan War.

The other is a map, which is a bad one. It makes sense that Rider, who wants to conquer the world, would be interested in geography.

So what's going on with this collection of poems? The big war was approaching, so Rider kept the map at home, but he insisted on taking the Iliad with him. Of course, Rider will be spiritualized from time to time, so it is impossible to carry luggage at all, so the burden of carrying luggage falls on Webb's shoulders.

I remember that Rider said that this book is a preparation for battle, but this is not a book on the art of war or anything like that, what can it be used for on the battlefield?

Why did Rider bring this book? Faced with Weber's complaining and bitter question, the Heroic Spirit replied with a serious expression.

"The Iliad is profound. I'm afraid that if I suddenly recall one of the verses in the middle of the battle, it will be very uncomfortable if I can't re-read it on the spot. ”

Although he knew that the other party's explanation must be very inexplicable. But I couldn't figure it out because I was scared.

"You mean on the battlefield?"

"Hmm."

"Reading on the battlefield? Fighting on the side? Reading a book while swinging a sword?"

"yes."

"How is that possible?"

"If you hold a sword in your right hand, hold the book in your left hand. If the left hand is holding the reins. Let the soldier who followed me read it to me. ”

Hearing this answer, Webb could no longer speak.

"What's so strange about that. In my time, there were battles in the daily life of samurai. You can fight while eating, and you can hug a woman while fighting, and you can fight even if you are asleep. It's just a little bit like that, anyone can do it. ”

"Liar."

"Of course, little fool." Rider laughed and reached out and flicked Webb's head.

"Wow," Webb tried to dodge, but it was obviously impossible. Just holding on to the steel bars with his hands and feet was enough for him to be tired. Webb couldn't even rub his sore forehead, only screamed.

"But young master, everyone will laugh when they hear this kind of joke. But seeing your pale face and dull eyes, you are too timid. ”

Rider laughed heartily. But the magician didn't bother with this, and the pain in his forehead made his tears begin to fall down. He regretted letting this Heroic Spirit be a Servant.

"I want to go home, I want to go back to England."

"I told you not to be so anxious. Look, there's a situation. Ride immediately pointed solemnly to the park in front of him.

"In this park, it seems that there is another Servant, and he has no hidden breath. Our goal seems to be slowly approaching him. ”

"Both of them seem to be heading to the opposite port. It seems that both sides are ready for a fight. Rider was still smiling, but at some point there was a beastly sharp and wild light in his eyes. Although it is still only a spectator, the soul of the heroic spirit Iskandar is finally returning to the battlefield.

Webb is still controlled by the fear of being on height. Honestly, he just wanted to be back on the surface now. As long as he can go back to earth, he will do whatever he wants.

- Divide - Divide - Divide - Divide - Divide -

To the east of the waterfront park is a strip of warehouse streets, and at this time there are hardly any people who come here. So it's perfect for a duel between the Servants.

Saber and Alice Phil walked the wide four-lane lane with dignity like a duelist brave enough to take on the challenge.

Their enemies also stood boldly in the middle of the path, and the strange appearance of the other party and the strong magic he exuded showed that the other party was an unusual being.

The two Servants stopped about ten meters from each other and began to confront each other.

Strictly speaking, this isn't the first Servant Saber has ever met today, but it's her first opponent of the day, and a battle that stakes her life is about to begin.

Saber watched her opponent closely, and he pulled his long hair back to his head, and Saber noticed that it was a man with good features.

His weapon is quite eye-catching, a spear that is about two meters taller than a human. Unusually, his weapon was not limited to this spear.

In addition to a long spear that he held on his shoulder in his right hand, there was also a short spear in his left hand, which was about one-third the length of another.

If you can make use of the length of the gun, you can use two short guns for a long one. But not to mention swords, I have never seen this scene of using two guns of different lengths at the same time as seen today.

From the handle to the blade, both spears are wrapped in a charm-like cloth that makes it impossible to see them for what they are. I'm sure it was a countermeasure to hide the real name of the treasure.

"It's finally here, I've been waiting for a long, long time, but no one dares to come here, only you respond to me." Lancer's Heroic Spirit praised in a deep but clear voice. Instead of taking a battle stance, he asked Saber with a complacent expression.

"Pretty vindictive, I think you're Saber, I guessed right."

"Yes. You're Lancer. ”

"Exactly. Ha, I didn't expect that before the death battle, I could introduce myself to my opponent so ordinarily. But I can't help myself. Lancer said with a wry smile.

Saber agreed, her cold expression softened slightly, "This can't be helped, it's not our fight for our honor. You must have offered your gun to your master, too. ”

"Ha, that's right." Lancer didn't look like someone who was about to fight for his life, but instead smiled with a wry smile.

When I looked closely, I found that he was actually quite a beautiful man. The high bridge of the nose, the awe-inspiring eyebrows, and the delicate facial contours, and the delicate lips make people feel strict and ascetic, but the gentle and melancholy eyes make people strongly appreciate his masculine charm. And the tear mole under his left eye made his eyes even more charming.

Speaking of which, he is indeed a beautiful man who can charm a woman at a glance. No, he gives people the feeling that he really just relies on his looks?

Alice Phil behind Saber raised her eyebrows slightly, "The magic of seduction? What a rude affair to a married woman, Spearman. ”

Lancer boldly unleashes the spiritual power of seductive women. And Alice Phil, who has been strengthened as an artificial person, has twice the ability to resist demons than ordinary people, otherwise she would definitely be fascinated by him at a glance like ordinary women.

In response to Alice Phil's protest, Lancer shrugged his shoulders with a wry smile, "I'm so sorry, I've been like I've been cursed since I was born." But there's no way around it. If you want to hate my birth, or hate you as women. ”

This is the magic eye in the Enchanting Curse, and Saber is the only one looking directly at him, and Alice Phil behind her does not look into his eyes. Perhaps what made his ability work was the moment Alice Fell saw his face. Maybe it's a demonic appearance.

Saber snorted disdainfully, scorning Lancer, "You won't be expecting mercy on you because of that face, Lancer. ”

"If that's the case, it's too boring, I see, Saber's anti-demon ability is really extraordinary, and if I were asked to kill a weak woman because of this, then I would also lose face. When I decided to wait here for someone who had the guts to come to the door, it seemed that I had made the right move. ”

"Oh? Looks like you're trying to have a good fight. It's a privilege to meet a heroic spirit like you. Saber replied with a smile. It is a transparent and tragic smile that only the warriors who are born and die can read.

"So let's get started." Lancer lifted the spear he was carrying on his shoulder, and with a backhand spin he assumed a fighting stance. In his left hand, he slowly lifted the spear. The two guns are spread out and waved like wings, a fighting stance that has never been seen before.

Saber also unraveled the surging fighting spirit. The burst of magic stirred up a whirlwind of air in the air, and the air flow enveloped the girl's petite body, and in an instant, her whole body was wrapped in silver armor, and the magic turned into armor and gauntlets. And this is the true face of this knight king Yingling.

"Saberβ€”" Alice Phil swallowed nervously and called out her name. Pulled by the strong fighting spirit exuded by the two, she was already keenly aware of it. In this battle, there is no room for her to intervene.

"Be careful. I'll use some healing spells too, but the rest will..."

Saber nodded before she could finish, "Lancer, please leave it to me." It's just that I'm a little worried about why the other party's master didn't show up. ”

As Saber said, Lancer's Master, who has not yet appeared, is still a stand-alone threat. Normally, the Master will be by the Servant's side, directing the Servant while performing the necessary magic support. As long as Lancer's Master hadn't fully trusted his Servant, he would be hiding nearby, watching Lancer's battle.

"Maybe he has some kind of conspiracy, you have to watch out. Alice Phil, I'll leave my back to you. ”

Saber's emerald eyes spoke silently, fearlessly. Trust the Heroic Spirit of the Sword.

Believing in this heroic spirit who sees itself as the master is not so much trusting in his own decisions.

"Understood. Saber, bring me victory. ”

"Yes. I sure. Saber nodded firmly and stepped forward.
