Chapter 283: Traces of Group C Found
Looking at Berserker, who was slowly standing up outside the house, Tosaka couldn't help but swallow.
It wasn't until he faced the enemy alone that he realized how strong this Berserker really was.
Looking at the thick black mist that appeared on the other party's body again, Tosaka felt that his body even trembled a little involuntarily, which was the natural reaction of the creature when facing the natural enemy.
Glancing at Gilgamesh, who was teleported to him by the curse, the other party's appearance looked extremely miserable, not only was his entire face bruised and swollen, his eyes were swollen and he couldn't open them, and the teeth in his mouth were basically broken like this.
Even the golden armor on his body looked scarred and full of cracks, as if it was going to shatter at any moment.
Looking at such a miserable Gilgamesh, recalling the arrogant image of the other party after being summoned, even Tosaka Tokitomi couldn't help but gloat a little.
With the current situation, Tosaka Toshitomi hoped that Gilgamesh would maintain his usual arrogant posture.
He took a deep breath to calm his mind and raised his hand to his chest. On the back of his hand, one of the three spells that had been bright red had already dimmed.
Tosaka was ready to consume the second spell, and although the spell was very precious, his own life was even more important.
If Berserker were to continue the attack, he would have to use one more spell to make Gilgamesh, who was lying on the ground unconscious, immediately recover from all his injuries.
As for relying on the techniques built by the Tosaka family for hundreds of years for defense, Tosaka Tokitomi had already abandoned this ridiculous idea after seeing Berserker's power.
Exhaust all the accumulation of the Tosaka family, and maybe you can unleash two or three Treasure Phantasm liberation-level attacks.
If it was against other servants, it might be able to do some effect, but in the face of Berserker, who had just smashed hundreds of treasures with his body, Tosaka felt that instead of choosing to attack him, it would be better to choose to take away all the property of the Tosaka family and change places to make a comeback.
And the other masters are also staring at this place through their own demons, watching the next development.
For them, after tonight, whether Tosaka is really out of the game or not, they will have to change the strategy of this Holy Grail War, especially against the terrifying Berserker, everyone is trying to figure out how to deal with his tricky defenses.
"Berserker, stop."
A childish voice sounded from behind Berserker, stopping Berserker's slow movement and causing the others to fall into surprise.
The master of Berserker is such a little girl?!
"Sakura?!" Tosaka Tokitomi, who was heavily protected by the Tosaka family's house, had an expression of disbelief on his face when he saw Sakura Makiri, who suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
Immediately, Tosaka Toshitomi's expression became extremely angry: "Damn! I took Sakura over to the past, but I didn't want that bastard to use her as a tool to be discarded at will! He actually let Sakura participate in this Holy Grail War, what the hell was that old thing thinking?! ”
Tosaka Tokitomi is of course very aware of how dangerous the Holy Grail War is, and this is not just a battle like the Servant, and those fools who think that they can sit back and relax as the Lord will never survive to end the Holy Grail War.
You know, a rank like Assassin is itself a representative of the assassination of the Master.
Although Tosaka Toshichen chose to pass on his daughter to someone else, in his heart, he also wanted to let his daughter have a better future.
He wants his daughter to have a bright future, instead of being discovered and taken away as experimental materials or a mother used to reproduce, so Tosaka Tokitomi will send his second daughter with excellent natural appearance to the declining Makiri family.
It was precisely because she was so good that Tosaka Toshitomi originally felt that he had to do this, but now......
If he were to do it to his daughter, he would never be able to do it...... Damn it! Could it be that this is the plan of that old guy in the dirty inkstone?
Looking at the daughter who was standing with the Berserker who was covered in black mist, Tosaka Tokito's face was extremely hideous, if the Berserker lord was his daughter, then he had to cancel what he had just planned and directly dispose of the Berserker lord's plan.
"Berserker, are you hurt?" Sakura walked up to Zheng Shu and looked up at him with some concern.
She had also seen the posture of Zheng Shu and Gilgamesh fighting just now, although she was indeed shocked, but Ma Kirizakura was more worried about whether her servant would be injured?
After all, Zheng Shu's appearance of being overwhelmed by the treasure just now made her suddenly recall the situation when she was overwhelmed by insects in the insect warehouse before, and even now, once Jian Tong Sakura recalls that scene, she will feel that the unforgettable pain seems to remain on her body.
If it weren't for the fact that Berserker had told her not to come out until the enemy Servant retreated, she would have rushed out desperately to ask Berserker about the situation.
Zheng Shu glanced at the cherry blossoms beside her with some surprise, and Zheng Shu could feel the emotions of horror and fear in her spirit.
I don't know why Sakura's mental state suddenly fluctuated like this, but Zheng Shu also gave up his plan to perform later, but smiled at her gently, and took the initiative to take Sakura's hand, which had become a little cold due to fear.
The temperature transmitted from Zheng Shu's palm made Sakura suddenly feel a lot more relieved, and after glancing at the messy environment around her, she took Zheng Shu's hand: "Berserker, go back." ”
Zheng Shu didn't speak or resist, just quietly being held by the hand of the cherry blossom and preparing to leave.
But just as they turned around and were about to leave the Tosaka family's house, Tosaka Tokito's voice suddenly came: "Sakura-chan! ”
Zheng Shu turned his head and looked a little surprised, Tosaka Shichen actually left the house full of protection and came directly to the courtyard.
"Sakura-chan, did you force you to participate in this Holy Grail War?!" Tosaka's voice was full of anger, if that was the case, he might have to bring his equipment to the old guy and reason with him.
"Tosaka Tokitomi, will you be able to withdraw from the Holy Grail War?" Sakura's cold voice sounded, making Tosaka Tosaka's originally angry spirit seem to have been poured cold water to calm down.
"What? Quitting the Holy Grail War, Sakura-chan, what are you talking about?! Going to Dayuan is a long-cherished wish of our Tosaka family for generations, how can we give it up?! Tosaka Toshitomi was a little puzzled, feeling that his daughter seemed to have changed a lot.
"Don't agree?" Sakura looked a little depressed, "So you're going to steal my hope too?" ”
"What are you talking about, Sakura?!"
"Forget it, Tosaka Tokitomi, this time I will spare you first, I hope you can see the facts clearly and give up the idea of the Holy Grail." Sakura's eyes suddenly became resolute again, "Let's go, Berserker." ”
"......" Zheng Shu silently lifted the cherry blossom from the ground and put it on his shoulder, and the two figures, one big and one small, disappeared quietly into the night.
None of the other masters present thought that this battle, which had shown an extremely fierce battle at the beginning, would end in such a hurry.
So, the first night of the Holy Grail War ended peacefully.
……
……
"Originally, she was the second daughter of the Tosaka family, but she was passed on to the Makiri family a year ago...... So that little girl is actually a contestant of the Maki family? Is it possible to afford such a large amount of mana consumption at such a young age? Or did she use some kind of special method? Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the information in front of him and fell into deep thought, and after a while began to dig through the rest of the information.
"It seems that something has happened to the Maki family a few days ago, the main house has been attacked by an unknown and there has been a lot of damage, and all the clansmen have left Fuyuki City, leaving only Makiri, Yanya and Sakura are still here......" Emiya Kiritsugu glanced at the information below and frowned, "What is the situation in the Makiri's family?" ”
The cigarette in his hand burned quietly, but Emiya Kiritsugu, who was deep in thought, didn't pay any attention to it, and didn't wake up until the cigarette was about to burn out and almost touched his fingers.
"Do you mean...... Was it just a show from the start? An answer finally popped into Emiya's mind, but he shook his head and dismissed it himself.
"Without this need, it is completely impossible to imagine what kind of benefit they can gain from this battle. On the contrary, because of this battle, those two servants leaked too much information. Emiya Kiritsugu re-lit a cigarette, "So, this battle came about because of the resentment of the daughter who was abandoned by her father......"
Whether it was the servant in the golden armor or the Berserker covered in black mist, these two could be called the top existences in this Holy Grail War.
Not to mention Berserker's jaw-dropping, seemingly completely flawless defensive power, even the Servant who was pressed to the ground by Berserker was quite terrifying, and the destructive power caused by the projection of the opponent's multiple treasures was simply not something that ordinary Servants could bear.
Emiya Kiritsugu didn't think that his servant could have much chance of winning in front of those two monsters, even if the other party was a world-famous knight king, not to mention that the knight king actually looked like a little girl who had not yet reached adulthood.
Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the smoke from the cigarette in his hand and was distracted: "According to the information provided by Einzberen, there should be an old magician in the Makiri family who has not appeared, and according to Tosaka Tokitomi's last conversation with that little girl, it is very likely that the Makiri family is going to use this method to force the Tosaka family out of the Holy Grail War." ”
"In any case, in the face of these two servants, we can only prioritize the goal on the master."
Emiya Kiritsugu finally settled on his initial strategy, and then began to contact his assistants Kuyu Maiya and Alice Phil on his mobile phone.
……
……
It wasn't just Emiya Kiritsugu who was surprised and curious about Sakura's identity, but basically the other masters who had seen this battle were also extremely surprised.
As for the combat effectiveness exposed by Zheng Shu and Gilgamesh, each of the Imperial Masters also began to think about ways to deal with the enemy.
Due to the difference in their abilities, some masters think that it is easier for them to defeat the golden servant, while others think that they are easier to defeat the Berserker.
But in any case, the fierce battle that took place on the first night of the Holy Grail War made the Lords who had not yet entered the state immediately become vigilant.
And at this time, the two masters were thinking about it, but they were shopping.
"Sakura-chan, you've done well today, but it's still too dangerous to rashly expose your body to the enemy's field of vision, and although you have put a lot of protection on it, it's better to be careful."
Zheng Shu walked aimlessly down the street while holding Kiri's hand, while instructing carefully.
Jian Tong Sakura nodded obediently, but looked up at Zheng Shu again: "Berserker will definitely protect me." ”
"That's natural, but you also have to watch your own safety......"
Before Zheng Shu's words were finished, Jian Tong Sakura happily held Zheng Shu's big hand with both hands: "Then I believe that Berserker will be able to protect me!" ”
"Ah...... Thank you for your trust. Zheng Shu scratched his head a little unsure, how did he feel that this little girl's personality seemed to have become a little devil.
It doesn't look like the autistic appearance it used to be, nor does it look like the character of growing up in the anime...... Is it your own delusion?
Glancing at Kirizakura's wet eyes, Zheng Shu's heart softened and threw these thoughts to the back of his mind.
If it weren't for Jian Tongying's good performance today, Zheng Shu really wouldn't have been able to borrow Amiya to leave downhill at the end.
Thinking of this, Zheng Shu waved his hand and took out the bank card that Tong Yanye gave him: "Let's go Sakura, I remember that the magazine said that there is a particularly good dessert shop near here, let's go and try it together!" ”
"Good!"
Evening.
When Zheng Shu and Jian Kiriying walked out of another particularly famous restaurant satisfied, the mobile phone rang suddenly from Zheng Shu's pocket.
When he took it out and saw that the caller was Tong Yanye, Zheng Shu immediately had a good premonition: "I found Caster's whereabouts, and my subordinates have gone to your residence with the backup video tape according to your request." ”
Listening to Tong Yanye's voice on the other end of the phone, Zheng Shu's eyes lit up: "Let's go back immediately!" ”
After hanging up the phone, he glanced at Sakura Makiri, who was full of curiosity, Zheng Shu thought for a moment and waved the mobile phone in his hand: "Sakura-chan, I'm going to deal with a new enemy, are you waiting for me at home or come with me?" ”
"I'll go with you!" Sakura didn't think much of it.
"Hmm...... It's okay, although the impact will be bigger, but you should be able to withstand it" Zheng Shu nodded, "Then get rid of that guy as soon as possible!" ”
(It's a little better, it should be just an ordinary heat stroke, see if you can add more tomorrow.) )
