Chapter 221: The Battle to the Death (I)
(Recommended ticket!) Ask for a referral ticket! )
- The gun tears through the atmosphere, roars and roars
- The sword is whirling and screaming
Like a withered life, the spark dissipated, and the two huge forces were evenly matched.
At this point, the gunners naturally have a one-point advantage. After all, the gun that Karna was holding had a head of more than one meter alone. But again, the flaw is that pulling away will inevitably lead to sluggish attack speed. Performing a thrust and then retracting the spear - such a process is essential.
Of course, although he could not use the Noble Phantasm lightly, his spearmanship still did not discredit Karna's name in the slightest.
Even if Shinji Makiri, who is the Imperial Master, is watching from the sidelines, I'm afraid I don't even know what Karna is doing. Because it is a realm beyond human cognition, how can ordinary people comprehend the realm of pure skill and enter the supreme realm?
However, in the face of this offensive, Saber was able to take it in stride. It can be seen that his swordsmanship has also reached the realm of inhumanity.
Although it is impossible to suppress Karna, even self-preservation is a problem. But he chose to be silent and patient, observing the timing of Karna's gun and seizing the opportunity to shorten the distance between the two sides.
However, Saber can't take for granted because of his excellent observation skills, and he can take it for granted that he has stepped into the god's domain.
He's trading injuries for shortening the distance, so he's already covered in bruises—but Saber still chooses to stubbornly move forward.
Dare to sacrifice to succeed———— in words is too simple. In practice, however, it is accompanied by great difficulties, and most people are mired in a quagmire called death.
Saber took a step further. Although he fended off numerous attacks in the most appropriate way. But there is never a way to completely prevent the vital point. Several thrusts have been fatal, the arteries have been sliced and the glabellar has been pierced———— as it should be.
"What?"
As if sensing something unusual, Karna immediately backed away, distancing himself from Sabr.
Staring at each other with a frozen gaze.
Yes, he found out.
- The wound is shallow.
It wasn't just a single blow, but seventy-eight shots actually stabbed Saber. Either blow is the key to impartiality. - But what's going on? Saber can also calmly and naturally clench his greatsword and fight back.
Although Karna could not use the Noble Phantasm, his own martial arts had no effect. But the wound was like a knife on a stone, and it was only to the extent that the skin was broken. Originally, it would not be surprising that even if the arm was shattered and the eye was gouged out. At least, Karna stabbed the spear with this kind of power.
It's weird. Obviously, the other party's master was not present. I can't feel the breath either. Ultra-long-distance magic healing is not possible. Then it can only be said that Saber's wound is only shallow and can even regenerate immediately, which is his own ability.
How can it be! If it is said to be blocked, although it is extremely difficult, it makes sense. But. It was obviously a direct hit. But it's impossible to have damage of this magnitude!
This is both an impossible fantasy and a fact that it actually happens.
Put it this way. There must be a reason. Either they have been blessed by the gods in the past, or they have inherent skills for self-healing.
"I see, I finally understand."
The long-lost sense of exaltation rolled in Karna's chest.
This Saber. Sure enough, it is very similar to "Arjuna".
In fact, if you want to say shock, Saber is no less shocked than Karne. His ArmorofFafnir is a reproduction of a Heroic Spirit bathed in the blood of a dragon, a feat in Siegfried legend that negates attacks below Tier B.
In other words, without liberating the Noble Phantasm, it is impossible to inflict damage on him with ordinary physical attacks alone.
However, all of the seventy-eight combos he unleashed wounded him. Although it was a minor injury, it was only enough to recover with just a little mana, but the fact was enough to make Saber shudder.
In other words, Karna's spear contains a physical attack power equivalent to that of an A-class. Needless to say, the gun itself must have been quite a treasure. But these alone are not possible to unleash a blow that can penetrate the dragon armor, which is a destructive power that can only be produced with amazing arm strength and excellent skill.
- It's wonderful
Saber's joy was palpable. Even in his lifetime, he had never been able to confront such a hero. Since defeating the dragon that destroyed thousands of villages, he has created countless legends through his immortality. — but the sense of crisis on the verge of death has long since vanished.
No attack will work on himself, Siegfried just slaughters the enemy with ease - it's not a fight, it feels closer to a job.
But there was no such numbness in this fight.
Behold, the spear that pierces through my dragon's armor.
Behold, the martial arts that have reached the realm of the gods.
How many legends did this spearman create, and how many hardships did he overcome?
Saber sighed in his chest just thinking about it.
In this regard, the spearman in front of him seemed to have the same idea.
They remained silent, staring at each other - once again, immersed in the battle.
Karna pulled up a spear and pointed the meter-long tip of the spear at Saber again.
The tall posture contains fighting spirit, fighting spirit, murderous spirit, and iron will.
Saber held his head high and clenched his sword, his resolute fighting spirit was self-evident.
Even though it was night, it was as sunny as the sun - two rare heroic spirits, once again, swords intersected.
"Again."
Shinji watched Saber and Karna's death-to-death battle with a solemn face. He couldn't find a chance to intervene, and the other party was also fighting alone, indicating that Alt Luki didn't seem to be here.
But what he was most unhappy about was that Karna couldn't deliver a fatal blow. Karna of Lancer. is undoubtedly the strongest servant of this year, both in terms of popularity and ability value are top-notch, and with a defensive treasure such as golden armor, no matter how strong the damage can be weakened by 90%, the remaining ten percent of the damage is not worth mentioning as long as it is not a fatal injury.
Who knew that Karna was still only on par with the other party.
Although his task was only to contain the other party's Saber, he would not be willing to do so. This is the Holy Grail War, and there can only be one winner, although this is not a good time for infighting, and it should be unanimous with the outside world. He is neither an idiot nor a fool. Naturally, we understand that the big picture is important. But he wasn't going to be held back by a mere Saber.
Kill Saber neatly, and then go to clean up Elt Luki, and finally fight to the death with the other servants.
But at the moment, it seems that Saber alone will not be able to pass the level easily.
Damn it. Who the hell is that swordsman?
Such resentment churned in Shinji Makiri's heart.
A roaring wind swept in. Karna, who unleashes a thrust like a cannonball.
Saber slices through the atmosphere and wields a golden greatsword that splits through darkness
The fierce battle between the two sides was tangled like a spiral. It's fleeting like a spark.
Standing at the pinnacle of sword and spear skills, the two threw themselves into this battle.
In terms of skill excellence, Karna had the upper hand. When it comes to physical tenacity, Saber is even better. That being said. In terms of overall strength, the two sides are hardly equal. Even a momentary relaxation can lead to a heart piercing and a decapitation.
If you can barely find the superiority, it is the existence of Kiritsu Shinji of the master. He was able to use the Spell to strengthen Karna for a short period of time, while looking for opportunities to break the deadlock. To put it simply, he is like an assistant coach on the football field, with little skill but three substitutions in his hands, which can make a big difference in the situation. However, Saber's self-healing power is also quite amazing. Despite Eltruki's absence, it seems that the connection between them is relatively deep, and the transmission of mana has become extremely easy, coupled with his own good magic, it seems that he will not be able to end the battle in a short time.
The sound of the clash of gold and iron caused by the collision of guns and swords is unknown.
There are countless wounds that have been received and healed immediately.
After a while, both sides unconsciously stopped their hands.
It's not out of fatigue. These two rare heroes, even if they fight for three days and three nights, will not be physically exhausted.
But time is a problem after all.
An hour had passed since the battle began. Neither side used the Noble Phantasm - not even the time to liberate their true names could be found. In such a situation, Shinji Makiri can't stand it anymore.
At this moment, however, Karna spoke:
"Master, please allow me to use the Noble Phantasm."
When Jian Tong Shenji heard this, he immediately refused: "No, at least not now." ”
Once the Noble Phantasm is used, the newly replaced heart will definitely not be able to withstand such a huge amount of magic. If you use it once, you will inevitably die, and you don't have to pay that much price to deal with Saber.
"But if it goes on like this, I'm going to lose." Karna stared at his opponent and said without looking back.
Undoubtedly, his marksmanship is admirable, but most of the time in the Holy Grail War, he cannot rely on his own skills to win. Noble Phantasm is their strongest means. As a servant who can't use the Noble Phantasm, no matter how strong it is, as long as the opponent's Noble Phantasm has enough power, then it will not be a problem to kill with one hit.
One of the reasons why Karna and Saber are at a stalemate is to prevent them from using the Noble Phantasm.
Shinji Makiri's brows were twisted into a Sichuan character, his fists clenched tightly, and he didn't feel any pain when his nails sank into his palms. He had to admit that he did underestimate Saber's combat power, if it was Karna in his heyday, he might be able to easily defeat the other party with his Noble Phantasm, but now
Obviously, he had to make a choice at this moment.
The first option was to grant Karna the Noble Phantasm.
The second option is to let the battle continue, either the opponent will be killed if he shows his flaws, or Karna will make a mistake and give the opponent a chance to liberate the Noble Phantasm.
The latter is more about luck.
To be honest, Shinji Makiri prefers the latter.
But—
"In the name of the Spell." Jian Tong Shen, who slowly raised his right arm, sank like water on both sides, and closed his eyes as if he couldn't bear it. Taking a deep breath, he said, "Lancer, I order you to go all out and kill the enemy. ”
The words fell, and the first spell vanished.
"Once again, in the name of the Command, Lance stakes your glory and carries out the bravery of the name of Karna."
The second spell was gone, and he felt a little sad about it. It was too late to stop, and this senseless confusion swept through his heart, a hesitation that was not worth mentioning like a fool.
"Finally, I commanded the curse—"
Shinji Maki firmly raised his hand with the last spell on it. Look at Karna's back. At least. Now, at this moment, he was finally able to put aside his previous inferiority complex and puff out his chest proudly.
This is the last of the kings. And it is the only glory.
"You have to win. Failure is not allowed. ”
The three stigmatas that were quickly liberated radiated their hidden magic. The whirlwind that rolled around it was a real magic. As a half-magician, Shinji Makiri, I'm afraid that he will never have the opportunity to exercise such a huge magic power in this life. But, even so. He still felt from the bottom of his heart that this was the most painful act of his life, and he had no regrets. As a reward for losing everything, this is enough.
The Holy Grail or something, leave it to the teacher to get it.
Speaking of which, what was the original intention of participating in the Holy Grail War?
Oh yes, that's it.
- I don't want others to look down on me.
- Especially in front of that nasty woman in Rin Tosaka.
- After the last, let's have a good fight
Until the last of the most, maybe there was such a thought before, but the mind that was too confused couldn't clear its mind, and it was immersed in meaningless self-absorption, thinking that getting the Holy Grail was the best proof of its own strength.
Stubbornly pursuing, completely ignoring Lancer's opinion, completely treating him as a prop.
When he played against Berserker, if he made a decision early and let him liberate the Noble Phantasm, what would Berserker count for, and his servant, Karna, would be the strongest! Now, even if he was on the verge of death at any moment, he and Karna still did not complain, silently obeying their rather stupid orders.
So the most after the most and the most after the most and the most and the
The only thing that can apologize and make amends is now.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you so much trouble because Lancer can't make it happen. However, there is something that must be said
- "I held back the tears that were about to well up, and the sour feeling on my nose made me want to cry.
"You will always be the best servant!"
The slightly trembling voice betrayed his mood.
Shout loudly with all your might.
Without waiting for Karna to respond, he turned and slowly walked away in the direction he had come.
Of course, not to return to the church, but to clean up those ghouls with your own hands and do your part.
"Such a master, to be honest, is not annoying."
There was a voice from behind.
Calm, slightly helpless.
Sounds very human.
Shinji Makiri's eyes suddenly widened, and he subconsciously turned his head to look at the battlefield.
Then, he witnessed a spectacular scene.
The atmosphere was evaporated, replaced by a scorching torrent of mana.
"Fill up!"
Saber began to bring his sword into the liberation phase. The dusk-colored aurora released from the sword gradually illuminated his face brightly and brilliantly.
"O Brahma, cover the earth!"
Karna's body burned with surging flames, and he held his spear high in the position of projecting a javelin.
An overwhelming vortex of magic shattered the wreckage around it, rejecting all living existence. It's just that the two of them have completed the preparation for the release of the treasure, and they are already in this state.
"Fantasy Greatsword. The Heavenly Demon is gone! ”
"O Rilun, obey death!"
The light of dusk filled the surroundings, and the spear of thunder shot forward. The dazzling lights collided with each other, and at the center of the explosion, a fierce wind instantly rolled up.
It's like a tornado with a high degree of compression. Get everything around you into it and constantly wreak havoc. Not to mention rubble, not even a speck of dust remained.
☆
In the silence, a burning smell came to the nostrils, and the light of the fire in the distant forest seemed to indicate something.
Ling Yi was not in a hurry, and slowly walked into the center of the unmanned porch with decisive and light steps.
He relaxes the muscles of the whole body moderately, and does not exert excess force to any part of the body. On the other hand, the nerves are like a mirror that is quieter and clearer than the surface of an icy lake, reflecting the panorama of the surrounding area. Sharper than hearing, clearer than visual, without any dead ends. Transform yourself into a probe that will immediately detect the slightest movement, and wander in the dark.
Elter Luki's attitude today is very intriguing. While instructing his servants to arrange a response plan, he didn't know what he was doing, and he was really an irresponsible master. But Ling Yi became more vigilant, the imaginary body Assassin couldn't figure out the situation, so he could only rely on himself to figure out a way. First of all, the feint mission of Rin Tosaka's master and slave is very smooth, and then he will choose to break into the forest to support the others, and Shinji Makiri's master and slave are a little troublesome, after all, the opponent is that Saber, and I don't even know his name so far, at most I know the information that 'is closely related to the dragon', and the rest is nothing. Looks like Elt Luki is planning to use him as a killer weapon? Even so, Karna is not so easy to deal with, and the end will only be a lose-lose situation.
But that's enough.
Rider, whose real name is Astolford, was one of the twelve warriors under Charlemagne, and although he ranked last in terms of strength, his means should not be underestimated. Let him cooperate with Artoria to attack the castle of Ainzberen head-on, and Altruki will not be able to pay attention to it.
The most pressing thing at the moment is not time, but intelligence.
Although the situation was favorable to them, Ling Yi didn't think that as long as El Luqi died, he would be able to complete the task released by the system.
One of the quest requirements is to prevent everyone from getting the Holy Grail and not being able to kill with their own hands.
It's not so much about making it more difficult.
Things weren't that simple—Ling Yi vaguely felt this way.
Unlike the master and slave, Ling Yi acted separately from Artoria from the beginning. While advancing in a grand manner, he sneaks into the castle in order to rescue the two hapless magicians.
Some people may want to ask, why don't you let the imaginary Assassin handle this little thing.
But in fact, this is not Ling Yi's real purpose.
If he let the imaginary body do it, then his plan will be in vain. (To be continued......)
