Chapter 180: The Brave Men Who Defeated the Demon King
"Yo, Saber, it's a nice night...... That said, but it doesn't seem like the time to say hello. β
At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew behind Saber, followed by the sound of lightning and thunder.
"King of Conquest!?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Saber immediately turned around and saw the reins in his hand, about to land the lightning Kamui wheel to Iskandar, where the two of them were in the park square.
"King of Conquest...... You still don't know what to do, are you just here for fun? Seeing the happy expression on Iskandar's face, Saber did not let his guard down at all.
"Alas...... Let's go to a truce tonight! Don't you see that big guy? With such a big guy here, there's no way to fight properly. Iskandar waved his hand and smiled awkwardly, "Just now I have spared several laps in the sky to look for backup, Lancer has agreed, it should be there soon, as for Archer, although I have seen him, but looking at his angry appearance, I think he will also attack Rocky without me calling." β
"Understood, I have no objection to fighting with you, conquer the king, although it is a temporary alliance, but let's swear together." Saber nodded, it seems that Rider is not on Rocky's side this time, so Caster's madness must be stopped no matter what, and if the oath can be kept, then joining forces is the right thing to do.
"Speaking of which, you seem to have met and fought with Caster before? I don't know what kind of proposal does Lu Dao have? Webb asked suddenly, looking no longer as panicked as before, war generally has a greater effect on people than they thought.
"Actually, I didn't play Caster that day. I underestimated this guy a little bit before...... I didn't expect him to summon so many monsters. Saber looked ashamed, but then said solemnly, "But I'm sure that this big guy was summoned by the magic book treasure in Caster's hand, and I believe that as long as it is destroyed, we must fight quickly." The monster, though still sustained in the present realm by Caster's mana, would be completely unable to cope if it began to forage for food on its own and be self-sufficient, and Caster had to be stopped until then. β
"I see. He must be dealt with before he goes ashore to forage for food. But ......," Iskandar looked at the dark green behemoth with a sad face, "what should Caster do in the center of that pile of meat?" β
"Get him out. That's all there can be. β
An answer was heard from behind Iskander, and in the glow of the streetlamps there was a figure with two guns, a little later than the chariot that soared through the sky, but Lancer joined in.
In this way, the alliance against the Demon King and Caster has gathered three Heroic Spirits.
"If you can strip that guy's treasure out. I can use the 'Red Rose of Demon Breaker' to destroy the spell in one fell swoop...... Of course, that guy wouldn't easily hit the same move twice. β
"Don't bother!"
Then. Suddenly there was a "click!" from the mist. Click! Voice. Then out of the mist came one tall and one short.
"Who is this?" Iskandar looked at it with some surprise, the two new people who appeared, the short one was okay, it was a normal person's height, but the tall giant was a few points taller than him.
"Rider of the Outsider?" Webb immediately identified the figure behind him who was taller than Iskander.
"They are the Riders of the Outsiders, and they are also here to assist us in our crusade against the Demon King Rocky." Saber immediately explained. However, she was a little puzzled, Rider was originally waiting in the shadows, preparing to snipe Rocky, and now appeared here. Could it be an order from Emiya Kiritsugu?
At this moment, Emiya Kiritsugu was now about 200 meters downstream from the sea devil that Caster had turned into, near the center of the Fuyugi Bridge.
When the sea demon summoned by Caster appeared, he happened to be in ambush near the harbor, so he soon spotted a large unmanned clipper ship by the nearby pier, and after proper preparation, he came to this place on this borrowed boat to observe the surrounding situation.
However, Emiya Kiritsugu had no intention of attacking the sea demon from the beginning. His goal in this chaos remains the "Hunting Master".
And a few minutes ago, Katov reported to him the characteristics of this sea demon, although I don't know where Katov came from, but according to Katov's description, this is a monster from the Cthulhu mythos, it is not just a monster that looks huge, but an undead monster that can regenerate indefinitely! To be sure, Caster's purpose was to get the sea demon ashore to hunt for food on its own, so that Caster would no longer have to rely on Caster for its magic.
However, if this monster starts preying, it will be too late, and the Holy Grail War will end the moment the sea demon sets ashore!
Because after obtaining a new source of magic power, Caster will always exist in the world, so that not only Fuyuki City, but also the surrounding cities will be finished, and the disaster will expand rapidly, and this time the Holy Grail War will be stopped immediately, and the Caster who has the ability to act on his own will be wiped out with all his might.
Hearing this information, Emiya Kiritsugu immediately understood, if he wanted to kill this monster, in addition to destroying it with one blow, he must destroy the whole body with one blow, leaving no scraps of flesh and incinerating it all.
What they need is neither a human nor an army treasure, but a city treasure! And Saber is in possession of such a treasure in the city.
"Saber, use your tricks."
Returning to Saber's side, Katov looked at Saber and said very seriously.
"With that ......?" Saber was stunned for a moment, although she had used it in front of the two Casters, but Rocky did not take the news,
"Now is not the time to hesitate, use your Countercity Treasure!" Katov frowned, he suddenly understood what Lodge meant. If the Holy Grail War ends now, a player like him who has not completed the required task of "killing a Master" will likely be wiped out due to the deduction of points.
Even if Katov has a balance of 2W exchange points, he may be able to withstand this deduction, but in this way, his future dungeons will be in an embarrassing situation, so whether it is for himself or for the sake of this Holy Grail War, he now has to expose Saber's abilities.
"Castle Treasure!?"
Lancer, Rider, and Webb all looked surprised at the same time.
"Could it be the sword of King Arthur?"
But then, Webb reacted. But Webb was also a little puzzled, did the legendary sword that represented the glory of the knight really have the level of the city's treasure?
"The Noble Phantasm...... Can you take out Caster's monster in one hit? Iskandar asked earnestly, and in the riverbank beside him, the sea monster's form had basically taken shape. Now, it must be time to make a decision. Give the enemy the best moment to hit head-on while they are still in power!
"It should work." Saber was silent for a few seconds. Immediately said with certainty, since Katov has exposed her strongest trick, now is not the time to be pretentious, we must unite to solve Rocky first!
"Understood, you need time to prepare for the city treasure, right? Then the striker business is left to me. Iskandar nodded in satisfaction, then smiled with absolute confidence. But you even have the Archaeum of the City, which makes me even more eager to have you under my command. β
"You're as stupid as Rocky, and I'll let you pay it back one day! Now the priority is to deal with this sea demon. β
Saber, who had always been angry when he heard Rider's jokes in the past, only glanced at him sternly with his eyes this time.
"Ha Lu Ha. Of course, then! I'll start with the first blow! Rider laughed loudly, spurred the bull pulling the chariot, and rushed into the sky with a high-pitched thunder, ignoring Webb, who was not mentally prepared to scream, and the Noble Phantasm of the King of Conquerors galloped towards the great sea devil.
For a while, Webb's trademark scream sounded in everyone's ears again, and it seemed that it would take a little time for Webb's little heart to become completely undisturbed.
"Well, I'm working as a guard on the shore, and that Rocky guy and his henchmen haven't shown up yet, and I think they should be waiting for your blow." Katov looked at Iskandar, who had already begun to fight with the sea devil, sighed softly, and immediately said to Saber, while signaling her to start acting as soon as possible, while Rocky may not have noticed it now, this is the best opportunity.
"Understood."
Saber naturally heard what Katov meant, and the next moment, the Wind King's barrier had been unlocked, and the golden sword revealed its true form with the roaring storm, and the glorious sword body seemed to be promised a victory oath to illuminate the surrounding darkness.
"Hmm...... This...... It's ......" Lancer looked adoring and envious, as if he had seen a light in the long dark night, and the anxiety and uneasiness that had been entrenched in his heart were swept away by this light.
Yes, this light is the crystallization of knightly ideals.
It is the faith of the knights, who are still firm in spite of the bloody battlefields and the endless hell of horror and despair of death, and it is the crystallization of all the images in the breasts of countless people who have died in this lightβthe light of glory and victory.
"It's a worthwhile trip to be able to compete with the world's unrivaled knight king......," Lancer said respectfully, he and Saber had already had a deadly battle before, and when Kenneth raided Einzberen Castle, he and Saber had a hearty fight, but because Kenneth was quickly defeated, the battle had to end early before it reached a climax.
"Our desire for victory rests with the sword of the Knight King, please, Saber." Lancer said respectfully, "At this moment, let me be your loyal bodyguard." β
A strong thought of "Lancer......" stirred through Saber's chest, causing her "right hand" holding the Sword of Oath of Victory to clench her fist, and she responded with a passionate force, her silver wrist armor making a crisp sound, trembling slightly with excitement for the upcoming battle.
"I promise you, I will bring victory with this sword!" Saber swore aloud.
At the same time, above the sky at an altitude of 500 meters above the ground, the Hero King rode in a glorious "boat" composed of gold and emerald gemstones.
The golden ship that now made him float in the air was also one of those "Divine Treasures". It was the flying vehicle called Vimana that was brought to India by Babylon and recorded in the two narrative poems of the Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
Archer ignored Saber's strange brilliance and fixed his gaze on Rocky, who was standing motionless on the riverbank.
After that Rocky teasing him, Archer became much more cautious and did not attack immediately.
However, Archer, who has all kinds of treasures, can now be sure that what appears here is only an apparition, and the real Rocky is not here now! (To be continued......)
