208. The First Night (1)

In a park in Fuyuki City, the wild goose sits on a bench at night.

Not long ago, he was in the Tosaka family's mansion and asked Tosaka Toshitomi about magic.

It may be difficult for me to imagine that I will have a day when I will seriously study magic, and the object of study is still the "love rival" I have always thought of.

"Mom, that uncle has been sitting there for a long time, what is he doing?"

"Child, that's what Mom and Dad call otaku. You must study hard, get into a good university, and get a good job, so that you don't become a waste like that uncle just now. ”

……

The dialogue between the mother and daughter passing by made Tong Yan a little crying and laughing at night. He turned his head, and what he had just said was a cute little boy.

"Heh, I didn't expect myself to be like this in the eyes of ordinary people. It seems that I am looking a little bad now. ”

He scratched his pale hair, a little helpless.

"My lord, on the other side of the Fuyuki Bridge across the Weiyuan River, there is the sound and breath of the servants fighting."

Behind him, a voice entered his ears out of thin air.

Servants do not have the living flesh of normal humans, and their bodies can be spiritualized, visually as if they have disappeared out of thin air. And in this state of "disappearing", since there is no entity, there is no need to consume the magic power of the master, and it can prevent ordinary people who have no magical literacy from seeing the "Great Transformation of the Living Person".

Jian Tongyan didn't reply at night, so he asked his servant:

"Is it far from here?"

"It's not far, maybe only a few kilometers or so."

"It's really not far, but if I walk over by myself, I'm afraid it'll be too late, Zhao Yun...... No, I'll call you Berserker outside. Please take me there. ”

"Yes."

At this time, it was already night, the sun had already set, and the park was not very popular, and no one passed by when night fell. A silver-armored and white-clothed general appeared behind Jian Tong Yanye out of thin air, took Jian Tong Yan Ye, stepped back and exerted a slight force, like a rocket, and rushed to the top floor of the surrounding buildings towards the place where the heroic spirits fought before.

"Wait, Berserker, stop by the shop in front."

Hearing this, the silver-armored military general found a dark alley where no one was around.

"Lord, is there something wrong?"

Jian Tong Yanye got down from Zhao Yun's back and explained:

"The master can see part of the servant's ability, your job is a berserker, it's too rare to have a sane berserker, other masters are likely to think you're a threat, if other masters see through the details, it's also possible to become an activation target. In preparation for a possible battle, I want you to disguise your identity and preferably act like a typical berserker. In addition, you look very sensible, and if you want to pretend that the berserker may be seen if the expression is not in place, you should cover it with a mask. ”

"As for me, it is difficult for me to be found out by the Engraved Worm that consumes mana, one of the rules of the Holy Grail War, for ordinary people without magical power, the masters and servants are not allowed to act recklessly. So as long as you hide well, it's hard for us to be discovered. ”

Makiri, who bought a pure white mask without any decorations in the store, handed it to his servant.

"Understood."

After the Servant put on the mask, the two of them continued to move towards their destination.

The sound of the intersection of clear swords and halberds was sonorous and powerful, resounding through the night sky.

When the night of the wild goose and the servant arrived at the source of the sound, they saw that in the open space of the container cluster of the coastal port, two people dressed very differently from modern people were dueling.

On one side, a woman with a blue-green background and silver breastplate, gauntlets, and leg armor clenched in both hands, as if holding something. Behind her, stood a beautiful white woman in private clothes, silver hair and red eyes.

On the other side is a man wearing the lightest protective gear and holding a long spear wrapped in cloth in one hand and a short spear covered in cloth in the other. The man is tall and well-proportioned, and can be called handsome and dashing.

Judging from the clothes of the two and the power of the battle, these two are servants.

"Although the things in the female servant's hand are obscured, the way she wields her weapon when she fights should be a sword. Then this female heroic spirit should probably be the saber of this Holy Grail War. The tall man on the other side uses a gun, so it should be the second of the three horsemen, lancer. ”

Jian Tong Yanye calmly glanced at the dress of the two and made his own judgment. Of course, the two Heroic Spirits in front of them had retained too much information due to their mutual battles. It's also very normal to be seen by the night of the child.

"Lord, Yun senses that in addition to the two servants in front of him, there is another servant lurking here. In addition, there are some unclear but very similar to the aura of the Servant, which is not far from here. ”

"A lurking servant? Who do you think it will be? Excluding Saber and lancer, who can be basically determined in front of you, as well as your own employment berserker, the Assassin who was killed by Tosaka Shichen's servant late last night, and the remaining Archer, Rider, and Caster, which side is the breath of this servant more like? ”

"Yun thinks that this aura should belong to the Assassin's side."

The eyebrows of the only remaining right eye of the night were raised,

"berserker, Assassin was out yesterday...... No, yesterday's battle between the Assassin and the Tosaka family servant was indeed suspicious...... However, the Assassin job has the ability to block the breath, berserker, how do you feel the breath of the Assassin? ”

"The cloud is not convinced, it is just the cloud's intuition."

Jian Tong Yanye glanced at Zhao Yun, who had already covered his face with a white mask, and after lowering his head and thinking for a few seconds, he chose to trust his servant's intuition.

The heroic spirit in front of him is a victorious general who has won every battle, and the top warrior of his time, his sense of smell for battles and enemies must be stronger than that of a half-baked magician like himself.

Moreover, he can know the panel attributes of his servant, even if it is only with that super-sized luck, it is worth trusting him once.

"Since the Assassin is still alive, it means that last night was either a trick by the Assassin's side to make us mistakenly believe that the Assassin is dead. Or last night was a play between the Assassin and the Tosaka family. They have secretly formed an alliance...... Tosaka Tokitomi is really a thoughtful man......"

While the night of the wild goose is observing the situation in the stadium, the battle between Saber and Lancer is getting closer and closer.

After another round of close exchanges, the two Spirits faced off several meters apart.

After a few seconds of silence, the gun-wielding lancer first smiled and complimented:

"Although it is really not an honor to fight without giving each other's names, I still have to praise your martial arts. After dozens of rounds of fighting with each other, they didn't even shed a drop of sweat, which is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go. ”

"You're too modest." For Saber, this is also a fair battle, and it can be seen that the girl's mood is also very happy: "Being able to be so praised by you for your mastery of spear skills is enough to be my honor as a warrior." ”

At this moment, a voice came from nowhere, and the timbre seemed to be distorted and heavily distorted:

"That's the end of the duel game. Lancer, if we continue to let the battle drag on, we will be in a bad position. Settle the battle as soon as possible, I allow you to use your Noble Phantasm, and it doesn't hurt to be seen by the enemy! ”

Lancer smiled, narrowing his eyes slightly, and responded in the air:

"Yes, my master."

He threw the spear in his hand to the ground, and the cloth wrapped in the spear in his right hand with magic inscriptions was unsealed layer by layer, turning into ashes and disappearing into the air, revealing the scarlet body of the spear in his hand.

Lancer danced with the spear in his right hand:

"I'm sorry, Saber. Although fighting is one of my most important pleasures, since it is the master's order, then I can only choose to take down your head as soon as possible. The invisible sword in your hand should be your treasure, right? In battle, I can't estimate the distance you can swing, and I really get into a lot of trouble. However, since you have to hide it even if you seal the treasure, it means that this sword is so famous that it will reveal your identity as soon as it is seen. That's why I don't use it as much as possible, right? ”

Saber was silent, seemingly acquiescing to the other party's statement.

"Looks like I'm right. So, I'm going to uncover what your hidden real name really is! ”

Lancer brandished his scarlet spear and strode forward.

"I'll kill you before then!"

Saber let out a low snort, calmly responding.

All the previous confrontations and temptations are exhausted at this moment.

The spear in Lancer's hand stabbed at the opponent's vital point, but he suddenly changed his move in the middle of the way, and went directly at the invisible sword in Saber's hand.

Saber was caught off guard, and the long sword in his hand intersected with the other party, making a piercing sound, and the huge destructive power of the two heroic spirits caused the concrete ground under his feet to burst.

"The Wind King Barrier was ......"

"Saber, I've seen your hidden sword! Since I can see the shape, length, and blade of the sword, then I will no longer be confused by the sword that I can't see, and I will be entangled in the distance that cannot be calculated! ”

Lancer seemed to be able to strike a single blow, taking advantage of the long range of the spear in his hand to launch a series of attacks.

Lancer's two-handed spear opens and closes, making his moves more versatile than when he used to use two guns. The cloth that covered the entire spear seemed to have cast a seal, concealing the power of the Lancer Noble Phantasm while also sealing the power of the Noble Phantasm itself.

And now that the spear in Lancer's hand has been unsealed, the weapon's performance has been greatly improved in an instant. In addition, after changing the two guns to a single gun, Lancer's offensive path has changed dramatically, and the moves are to the point, which makes Saber overwhelmed, and has to take a defensive position, continuously dodging the opponent's sharp stabs.

Strange as it may seem, Saber's dodge may seem dangerous, but she finds the shortest path right every time and narrowly dodges her opponent's attack. After a series of attacks and defenses, he was not injured except for a few strands of hair.

After dodging the opponent's sweeping attack again, Saber took advantage of the situation and rolled on the spot, leaving the opponent's attack range.

"I was a little uncomfortable at first, but now I basically understand his moves with a single-handled spear. The gun is powerful, but it's still within my control. The next blowβ€”"

Saber quickly adjusted his breathing, his sword raised.

Lancer placed the spear near his waist and aimed it at Saber's abdomen.

"This is an attack aimed at the waist and abdomen, raise the long sword and take advantage of the forward momentum to turn sideways, let the blade rub against the surface of the side armor, take the opportunity to crash into the opponent's arms, and slash under the sword that has been placed in a high position, target, head!"

Saber instantly predicted the next move in his mind, and then resolutely stepped forward.

And when the two sides staggered, Saber, who had already dodged sideways, suddenly felt a pain in his waist and abdomen, and his movements were deformed, and the attack only hit the opponent's arm, but did not hit the vital point.

"Berserker, what happened to the confrontation just now?"

The desperate struggle between the two servants took place between the lightning and flint, and the vision of the night was not clear, so he could only turn to his servants for help.

"Lord, at the moment when the two servants staggered, Saber had already dodged the opponent's attack, and was about to attack Lancer's neck, but for some reason, Lancer's red spear actually penetrated the armor generated by Saber with magic power, and pierced Saber's waist and abdomen, which is an important position to exert force, and the sudden injury in this position caused Saber's movements to deform, and the attack track was deviated, only injuring the opponent's arm."

"Armor formed through magic? Do you say ......"

What Jian Tong Yan didn't finish at night was broken by Saber in one sentence:

"Lancer, that gun of yours has the effect of cutting off the magic power, right?"

Lancer gave a smile and admitted very frankly:

"That's right, this gun can break magic, so your armor made of magic is completely useless in front of this gun."

β€œsaber! I'll treat you right away. ”

Behind Saber, a white woman who looked like the Saber Master immediately used healing magic to heal Saber's scars.

And the Lancer Fang Master, who was watching the battle between Lancer and Saber in the shadows dozens of meters away, also released a healing magic.

Under the effect of magic, the wounds of both sides were healed, and the battle returned to its original state.

"Thank you, Alice Phil, the cure has taken effect."

Saber softly thanked the white woman behind her, then resolutely lifted her armor.

Lancer raised an eyebrow,

"Oh? Ready to give up your armor and make up for the disadvantage in defense with the agility and lightness of your movements after losing it? ”

"Since the armor doesn't work, just give up the armor, I'm already familiar with your movements, as long as you dodge all your attacks, even if you don't have defensive equipment, you won't hurt me in the slightest."

Lancer quietly moved two steps back,

"It's you, quick to react and make decisive decisions, but in the current situation, you've made a mistake, Saber."

"Whether it's a mistake or not, wait until you take my sword!"

Taking off her heavy armor, Saber rushed forward like thunder, and the surging magic poured into her sword, and the golden light condensed on her sword.
