263. The Holy Grail of Calamity
On the roof of the Minaret Building, Sakura pointed to the smoke-filled Fuyuki City Civic Hall, and exclaimed eagerly:
"Mr. Kenneth, it's burning there."
"Burn up?"
Kenneth's gaze followed Sakura's petite hand and pointed downward.
Sure enough, inside the Fuyuki City Civic Hall building, the reddish-yellow light from the burning flames shines through the windows, making it particularly eye-catching at night.
"Fire?"
Kenneth frowned, and Sora, who was beside him, patted him on the sleeve.
Kenneth turned his head, and Sora whispered to him with a solemn face:
"Kenneth, that place can feel strong magical fluctuations."
At the same time, Kenneth was not the only one who felt the strangeness of the Fuyuki City Civic Hall.
Gilgamesh piloted the flying boat Vimana and floated over the Civic Hall.
Flames were blazing and smoke was billowing out. In the midst of the fire that seemed to burn everything, Gilgamesh's face showed a look of disappointment.
"Is this the Holy Grail? It makes me laugh. The secret treasure that everyone is fighting for will be so bad, unappetizing. β
βArcherοΌ Is this a good thing you did? β
Gilgamesh, who was riding in Vimana, heard a shout, and he looked back in the direction from which the sound came, and the source of the sound was three people on the ground.
Gilgamesh glanced at the knight king Artoria and Emiya Kiritsugu who were riding on a locomotive, and Zhao Yun who was riding a white horse, and showed a creepy gentle smile:
"If I answer yes, what are you going to do, Knight King of Britain?"
Saber raised his golden sword, the blade pointed at Gilgamesh.
"Sure enough, what are your intentions for doing such a thing for no reason? Is it really to attract us here? β
"Hahaha......"
Gilgamesh laughed contemptuously, as the only true king in the heavens, if he wasn't interested, how could he ever speculate on the thoughts of others, or deliberately lay them out?
Gilgamesh's laughter was seen as a mockery by Saber, and just as she was about to continue her questioning, Emiya Kiritsugu stopped her:
"It's a good thing that he's willing to show up in front of us. Despite having the skill of acting alone, this does not change the fact that he does not have a master, and he is one against two. Even if we can't defeat him, as long as we keep delaying, without the Master's magic power as a supplement, his own stored mana will eventually be depleted. The Holy Grail War, it's time to end. β
Anger appeared on Gilgamesh's face:
"Just ants, dare to speak out in front of this king! This king lost? A mongrel is a mongrel, and you can't understand what the real power is, today, let this king teach you well! β
Gilgamesh snapped his fingers lightly.
Countless golden ripples rippled behind the Hero King, and a brilliant divine weapon emerged from the door of the Babylonian treasury, revealing its incomparable power to the outside world.
What Emiya Kiritsugu didn't know was that Gilgamesh's treasure, the King's Treasure, was essentially a key, the key to the Babylonian treasury.
The treasure that Gilgamesh took out was genuine, so there was no need to consume mana, and the magic of using the king's treasure was only the magic of opening the spatial passage.
Gilgamesh had enough mana left to take out a thousand weapons. Therefore, the tactics of exhausting Gilgamesh's magic by delaying the war are completely untenable.
Under the god-built flying boat Vimana, the energy of the weapon system condensed, flashing with the light of destruction.
Emiya Kiritsugu's face was solemn, he had always believed that the Archer in front of him, who was emitting golden light, was a fierce opponent in this Holy Grail War, and from the power displayed by the other party, the true strength of the other party should be higher than his own estimate.
"Saber, the other side is very firepower. We don't have a defenseless Heroic Spirit here, so we can activate the Sword of Victory of the Oath and send back all the treasures he shot down, and destroy them along with the ship! β
Artoria nodded, and the golden magic power converged around the golden brilliant holy sword, and the shockwave formed by the surging magic energy surged out.
The two kings waved their arms at the same time. A powerful attack that is ready to be unleashed at the same time.
From top to bottom, it is composed of countless golden treasures, and the rain of treasures that fall to the ground;
From the bottom up, a fountain of light made of surging golden magic soars into the sky.
The explosion from the meeting of the two forces stirred up strong winds, as if the atmosphere had been swept away.
"Haa!!a
Artoria let out a coquettish shout, and the rush of light of the Sword of Victory of Oath repelled the rain of Noble Phantasms step by step, sweeping upward.
Vimana, a sacred boat made of gold and agate, was cut off by the sword of victory of the oath.
The flying boat exploded and burned into a large number of debris, but Gilgamesh calmly descended from the sky.
The golden figure still didn't look embarrassed.
"Beautiful girl, before the war is serious, I have a proposal."
Gilgamesh smiled:
"Be me, the woman of Gilgamesh, the heroic king of Babylon, and in the name of the first and only king of heaven and earth, I will give you unparalleled glory!"
Saber didn't say a word, the golden sword hung at his waist, and his body quickly approached Gilgamesh who landed on his feet like a bullet.
The sword Excalibur slashed sharply, but the sword had not yet slashed Gilgamesh, and Artoria was bound by the golden locks of heaven.
Gilgamesh cupped his forehead and shook his head slightly.
"It seems that your answer is no. That being the case, I regret to inform you that you will not be able to overcome me, despite your struggle. β
Gilgamesh reached out his fist and slammed it into Artoria's abdomen.
In the nick of time, Saber finally broke free from the locks of the sky, and with a battle instinct far superior to that of her sixth sense, she narrowly avoided Gilgamesh's attack.
Artoria took a few steps back in succession, returning to Kiritsugu Emiya.
"Kiritsugu, the types of Noble Phantasms that Archer can use are not limited to weapons."
"I saw the strange chains, and the wine glasses, and the flying boats. He had just revealed his true name, Gilgamesh, the hero king of Babylon. No wonder they claim to be the only king. When he became a king, there was indeed no king in the world. He was also naturally the only king. β
Emiya Kiritsugu pulls out the contender with Caliko.
At this time, Zhao Yun stood up and said:
"Archer, I'll settle the knot."
βBerserkerοΌβ
"Saber, as you know, the conflict between me and this Archer has long been settled. And if you were to tell the winners, I'm afraid the street would be in ruins. Why don't you let me try it. β
Zhao Yun held his right hand, and the spear densely covered with dragon patterns appeared in his hand.
The pragmatist Emiya Kiritsugu didn't ask why, but directly acquiesced to Zhao Yun's behavior, but he asked again:
"Berserker, are you sure?"
"It's a little bit higher than fifty percent."
Gilgamesh interrupted:
"Bastards, have you decided who is going to kill me? Of course, if you want, you can come along. β
Gilgamesh didn't pay any attention to the person in front of him. Even though Berserker had beaten him to the ground, he thought it was just a beating, and as long as he was serious, these people were just jokes.
"Babylonia, the hero king, let me be your opponent."
Zhao Yun danced a spear flower and inserted the dragon pattern spear into the ground. Step forward with your hands free.
Gilgamesh narrowed his eyes and glanced at Zhao Yun:
"In the face of me, you dare to lay down your weapons? I can understand that you are humiliating me? β
"No, no, no, how could it be? It's just that I won't need my best comrades in the next battle. β
"Huh? Looks like I need to give you an idea of what happens to arrogance. β
Gilgamesh activated the key to the treasury, while Zhao Yun closed his eyes.
Time and space begin to distort. In the eyes of Saber and Emiya Kiritsugu
Flying dust, air mixed with the smell of earth, the red sun hanging over the east mountain.
Gilgamesh bowed his head, and was surprised to find himself dressed in a completely different armor, surrounded by a large number of equally armored soldiers.
"Here?"
Gilgamesh looked around, and he was now on a small dirt bag on high ground, surrounded by groups of people wearing the same armor as himself. And on the flags on the wooden shelves that were scattered among the armored soldiers, there was a big word "Cao" written on it.
Recalling Berserker's previous strange movements, Gilgamesh shrugged his shoulders:
"It turns out to be an inherent enchantment. It's not going to be useful to me. β
With a stretch of his hand, Gilgamesh pulled out a sword with an extremely strange shape, the Treasure of the Realm: The Sword of Obedience.
It should have been so.
Gilgamesh held out his hand, but felt nothing.
The king's treasure, which he was so proud of, suddenly lost its effect.
It's not just about swords. All the treasures, including the Heavenly Lock, were useless when the King's Treasure could not be used.
These phenomena made Gilgamesh think about something, and he took a closer look at his state.
This is not his own body, and he cannot use the king's treasure without extraordinary physical strength and magic.
What is Berserker's plan in bringing himself into such a world?
"There's no calculation."
A voice from nowhere was heard by Gilgamesh.
Gilgamesh immediately became alarmed, and after taking a closer look at his surroundings. But he still didn't find anyone nearby.
"Look no further, Babylonian king of heroes. I'm not with you. All you can find is sound. β
It was the voice of that berserker, and Gilgamesh was sure of it.
"Berserker, what the hell are you up to?"
Gilgamesh's words were quickly echoed.
"Gilgamesh, the hero king, is two-thirds a god and one-third a man. He is so powerful that he can kill the bull of the gods with his bare hands...... What a legendary story! β
"What do you want to say?"
"Gilgamesh, don't be in such a hurry. I'll say it, and quickly. β
Zhao Yun's voice continued:
"You are a demigod, with the power of a god, a natural ruler, born destined to face a legendary life."
"You are able to despise all things, for you are the king, the ruler of all, you were born to have all things, you were born to know them. Ignorant mortals can only live a normal life under your leadership. β
"Thou hast despised mortals, thou hast despised magicians, thou hast despised thy own lords, thou hast despised Iskandar the conquering king, Arthur Pandoragon the knight king, and all the kings of the Hereafter."
"But what you are proud of is your innate strength. Your rule, your authority, everything you have comes from violence. β
"What is there to be proud of?"
"I'm from Huaxia. It was a magical place. There is a group of kings out there who are completely different from you. β
"The weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and the Suiren clan drills wood to make fire, and there is a nest of nests for the nest, and the leaves are for clothing; The people were sick and hungry, and Shennong's tasted all kinds of herbs and created a farming ......"
"Their wisdom, their struggle, and their responsibility will be sacred to future generations."
"Hero King, but you, without the power you are proud of, what can you do?"
"I'll go to you now. Next to you, that's your army. Use them well, this is your only way to survive. β
"Only one person can wake up from this dream. I wonder if it's you, or me? β
Zhao Yun's voice gradually blurred, leaving only some unknown noises, and even these noises eventually disappeared, and everything returned to silence.
"Report! On the east side of our army, a white-clothed general was killed, and the outermost robes were taken by surprise. The outermost part of the formation had been breached. β
"General in white?"
Gilgamesh looked to the east of the mountains of soldiers.
Just as the soldier who came to report the news just now, a military general wearing white clothes and silver armor and riding a tall white horse broke into the enemy line alone.
The white-clothed military general wielded a spear, and no one could stop him. Everywhere I passed, there were corpses that had been pierced out of one bloody hole after another.
And Gilgamesh could see that although the military general was extremely strong, although his strength or speed was far beyond ordinary people, it was nothing compared to the level of a Heroic Soul Servant.
However, in such a situation, the army of more than 100,000 people still could not trap it, and could only let it go back and forth in the military formation.
And the man's face was the same one Gilgamesh had ever seen, Berserker's.
Inexplicably, Gilgamesh felt as if the other party had raised his head to look at him. Then he changed the direction of his progress. Riding a white horse, he ran straight to his position.
The shield of the sword and shield hand was trampled down by the galloping horse, and the soldier who had lost his shield was stabbed through the heart with a light shot; Rulin's spear was broken or simply smashed, and when there were too many soldiers around him, the white-clothed general drew out a blue sword, and his hand rose and fell, and everywhere he passed, his clothes and armor were flat, and blood was like a gushing spring.
Breaking through the blockade of tens of thousands of soldiers, the distance between the white-clothed generals and himself slowly but surely continued to shorten.
And another, and another, and another.
Although the number of soldiers was unimaginable, the number of people who could attack Zhao Yun was only ten.
As long as you keep solving the ten leaves beside you, even if it is 100,000, it is just a floating cloud.
