Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

It can be said that without Bedivere's "returning the sword" ceremony, it would be almost impossible for Chaldea to defeat the Lion King head-on.

Of course, please don't get me wrong, Yi Guang didn't want to put Bedivere to death because of Bedivere's "returning the sword".On the contrary, he wants to assist the loyal knight to complete the ceremony of "returning the sword" - he wants to restore the Lion King from a "god" to a "man" in advance.

After all, as a "goddess" who is completely dominated by rational thinking, Yi Guang cannot guarantee that her actions will fully conform to her logic.As for things that do not conform to her own logic, that "goddess" has always had a very cruel attitude.As Yi Guang commented before, compared to "King Arthur", "The Lion King" is truly ignorant of people's hearts.And Yi Guang didn't want to be/killed because he didn't meet that guy's expectation in some aspects, it would make people feel a bit wronged to die.

If there is an opportunity to make "The Lion King" become "King Arthur" again, he is certainly happy to see it happen.Anyway, this change will not cause a weakening of strength.

Chapter 482 Bedivere and Chaldea

Bedivere, one of the Knights of the Round Table of King Arthur in the ancient British legend, and one of the original elders of the "Knights of the Round Table", served as King Arthur's bodyguard and attendant for a long time.Although one-armed, he is brave and good at fighting. He is good at using long spears in combination with horse riding. It is said that his long spears are nine times as powerful as those stabbed by other knights.He has a close relationship with Sir Kay, who is also the elder of the "Knights of the Round Table" and the brother-in-law of King Arthur. In the early days of King Arthur's campaign, these two veteran knights have completed many extremely difficult combat missions together.

At the same time, he is also the knight who witnessed the end of the legend of King Arthur in the legend of King Arthur.The most well-known deed of this knight is that he returned the "Holy Sword Excalibur" to the "Lake Fairy" before King Arthur died.When King Arthur thought he had been mortally wounded, he commissioned Bedivere to throw the "Holy Sword Excalibur" into the lake, but Bedivere understood the value of the Holy Sword and King Arthur to Britain, so he was reluctant to return the Holy Sword. sword.He went back and forth twice, trying to deceive King Arthur that he had returned the holy sword, but was seen through by King Arthur because he could not describe the scene of returning the holy sword correctly.It wasn't until the third time that he really threw the sword away, and reached out from the "Lake of Elves" with both hands to catch the holy sword, and King Arthur ushered in the end of his destiny.

However, on this world line, the first and final knight who witnessed the legend failed to return the holy sword because of a mistake when he returned the sword for the third time.The consequence was that King Arthur could not meet his own destiny and went to the legendary holy land "Avalon".And the knight who did not return the holy sword because of a mistake, returned to the big tree where the king lived, but could no longer find the king's trace - because the power of the holy sword cannot die but it is defined by the world as The legendary king of "death", relied on the power of the Holy Lance to stay on the ground, and turned into a holy undead controlled by the Holy Lance.

"What have I done?!"

After realizing this, the loyal knight fell into deep remorse and self-blame, and kept looking for the king's trace for a long time. The power of "Holy Sword Excalibur" makes his body immortal, but his soul cannot resist the erosion of the years. The natural fear of death of short-lived species accumulates with the passage of time, and the maintenance of physical activities is also constant. Consume his fragile soul power as a human being.For a seemingly endless time, the knight traveled to every corner of the world, trying to find his king and return the holy sword to wash away his sins.However, the world line he is in itself is not in the normal development of human history, and things born because of mistakes are bound to be corrected by the world. King Arthur, who turned into a divine undead, is rejected by the world and wanders outside the world .What remains in this world are only folklore such as the "King of the Wild Hunt", which is circulated between history and myth.

Until the occurrence of "Humanity Burning", the entire human history was turned into raging flames, and the fragments of human history formed a strange space called "singularity". appeared one after another.It wasn't until this time that Bedivere learned of the king's whereabouts from someone, and followed the clues to come outside the gate of the "Holy Capital Camelot".

At this time, time has passed, a full fifteen centuries, that is, a long period of 500 years.

"Finally, can I see you..."

Standing in front of the pure white and tall city wall of the "Holy Capital", Bedivere could vaguely see the two figures standing at the top of the city.He would never admit that he was mistaken, the figure with blond hair as bright as the sun was the "Sun Knight" Gawain who was one of the three elders of the "Knights of the Round Table" with him and Kai.And he also deeply knew that, as one of the first knights to follow the king like himself, Gawain's loyalty to King Arthur was unquestionable.Although the excessive behavior in Lancelot's rebellion led to the expansion of civil strife in the kingdom, there is no doubt that Gawain will only be loyal to King Arthur.Therefore, the information I got from that person before is correct, the king is indeed in this singularity, and it is in this "sacred capital".

"So, I have to find a way to get into the city as soon as possible. I'm... almost unable to hold on any longer." Bedivere's body suddenly trembled, but he quickly calmed down and returned to normal.

But at this moment, Bedivere realized that someone was approaching him, and his intuition as a soldier told him that someone was coming towards him.So he immediately turned around to see who the other party was.

"Hello, sorry to disturb you..." Sure enough, a beautiful figure appeared in front of my eyes with a timid voice, "That, is that Mr. Bedivere?"

Bedivere was taken aback. He had never told anyone his real name since he came to this singularity, and he always used the name "Lucius" in his daily operations.However, the girl who suddenly appeared in front of her, wearing the same cloak as herself, and her body also covered in black armor, revealed her real name in one mouthful, which naturally made Bedivere a little confused.And after carefully seeing the other party's appearance and attire, this expression of surprise became more intense.

"You are... this shield..."

The girl who suddenly appeared in front of him was carrying a huge round cross shield on her back.This shield is obviously not an ordinary one, and there is a certain kind of magic power wave that is very familiar to Bedivere. In addition to the little girl's own attire and the faintly revealed face and hairstyle under her cloak, Bedivere suddenly Only one person comes to mind.At the same time, he also recalled that before setting off to come here, the person who told him the whereabouts of the king also told him many other things besides the whereabouts of the king.

"We are members of the 'Human Security Organization Chaldea', you should be Mr. Bedivere, right?"

After the girl appeared, a handsome young man who was about the same age as her also appeared. With a hearty smile on his face, he also greeted Bedivere.And hearing the name "Chaldea", Bedivere also nodded secretly in his heart.

Sure enough, they are the last masters of human beings who are said to save humanity. That fellow Merlin is right.So, this girl and this shield are really... that person?

"Well, we've been looking for you for a long time, and we want to talk to you about something, is that okay?"

Not knowing what was going on in Bedivere's mind, Fujimaru Tachika and Matthew sent invitations to Bedivere.According to the Miss Saber whom she met in the desert before who refused to reveal her real name and was a bit weird, this Bedivere knight has the key to repairing this singularity.Therefore, in order to complete the task of repairing this singularity, it is necessary to recruit this unowned heroic spirit.Therefore, Chaldea and his party felt that they were going to this "Holy Capital" to search, because that Miss Saber only roughly knew that the approximate place where this Heroic Spirit who was said to be hiding key elements appeared was in a refugee settlement in the "Holy Capital". I don't know the specific situation.

"Sure enough, that Miss Saber didn't lie to us..."

While negotiating with Bedivere in front of him, Fujimaru Tatsuka was slightly relieved.That Miss Saber who suddenly appeared on the "Vimana" caused a commotion in the entire Chaldean team. Her weird way of appearing on the stage and the ominous aura she carried on her body made the Chaldean heroic spirits all panic. Can't trust her.Even Mr. Karna, who has the best temper, also reminded Fujimaru Tachika in private.

"Master, although it's not good to talk about others behind their backs, but forgive me, this Saber who doesn't want to reveal her real name...it's really hard for people to have a sense of trust in her." At that time, Karna had a certain expression on his face. He said with a fearful expression, "It's not just a simple problem of her unknown origin, Master, you may not be able to feel it as a human being, but we heroic spirits can see it very clearly. That woman is not so much a heroic spirit. Rather, it is some kind of monster... No, maybe even a monster is not enough to describe it, it is completely empty, she is like a huge whirlpool, absorbing the magic power in the surrounding air all the time, and releasing some extremely dangerous things at the same time. breath."

"Yes, empty, that woman can't be regarded as a human or a heroic spirit at all. Because she can't feel the emotions of being a human at all. Whether it is happiness, admiration, and joy, such positive ones, or hatred, anger, and sadness, such negative ones There is no emotion at all... This kind of complete silence like a weapon makes people feel terrible, okay?" The Count of Monte Cristo also expressed his opinion on this.

"The most irritating thing is that we can't get rid of her, and we are just like a shadow." The oldest king also looked unhappy, and then said to Fujimaru Tachika, "This is the first time this king has a 'We are in big/troublesome' I've got such a view... miscellaneous cultivators! Why don't I let the king directly destroy this woman with full firepower?"

"He saved us anyway, so it shouldn't be like this?" Fujimaru Tatsuka looked at a group of heroic spirits, and couldn't help waving his hands, "And they didn't do anything against us, so it's not good to just open fire?"

But no matter what, the woman who appeared inexplicably followed them for two days, and apart from being unable to get rid of them, there were indeed no other problems.Not only that, she is very sensitive to various threats and enemy attacks, and can often predict the coming threats before others and easily kill the enemies.And when it comes to repairing the singularity, she has an unexpectedly detailed understanding of the singularity.Although her own language function seems to be a little problematic, resulting in some unsound expression, but every piece of information she provided has been verified in the end.

This made the objections of other heroic spirits disappear temporarily, and Saber became a member of the Chaldean team...Of course, due to her strange aura, no one except Fujimaru Tachika and Mash dared to talk to her casually. up.

And now they found Bedivere based on Saber's information, but just as they were preparing to have further detailed negotiations with Bedivere, the main gate of the "Holy Capital" opened.

Chapter 483 The first confrontation

When Yi Guang saw Fujimaru Tachika and Mash beside Bedivere, he immediately realized something very bad.This kind of consciousness is not a foreknowledge or a precursor in any sense, but a conclusion based on the simplest logical thinking.After all, as the protagonist of the original book, the appearance of the other party in front of my eyes means that the plot of this mission has already begun, and the beginning of the plot means that other hosts must also come to this world.Based on the deduction of one person and one camp in advance, Yi Guang easily concluded that when everyone in Chaldea appeared in front of his eyes, there was a high probability that another host was lurking nearby.

After realizing this problem, Yi Guang's whole body began to tense up, and at the same time his mental power spread to the surroundings.Even though he didn't perceive any danger in any sense now, he still adjusted his spirit and body to a posture ready to attack at any time.

"Here, you are...Mr. Lanza! Have you also been summoned to this singularity?"

Of course Fujimaru Tachika didn't know how nervous Yi Guang was right now, and he also saw Yi Guang walking towards him from a distance.His memory is not bad, he just recognized this spearman galloping with him in the second singularity after a moment of surprise.The kind-hearted boy suddenly showed a joyful smile of "meeting an old friend in a foreign land" and shouted.After speaking, he pulled Matthew and prepared to walk towards Yi Guang.

"Wait a minute, that person is..." At this time, Gao Wen also recognized the figure beside Fujimaru Tatsuka, "Is it Bedivere? Is it Mr. Bedivere?"

"Yes, it's me...Gao Wenqing."

Bedivere had been paying attention to the movement at the gate from the moment it opened. He wanted to see the king of the city, so he had to find all ways to enter the city.However, the gates of the "holy capital" are closed most of the time, and the only way to enter is to wait for the "holy election".But when he found this place according to the rumors from the outside world, he was told that two days ago, the king issued an order to cancel the "holy election" originally scheduled for tonight.As for when "Holy Choice" will reopen?then no one knows.

So when the gate of the "Holy Capital" was opened, he naturally felt a sense of anticipation.He hopes to meet his former colleagues of the "Knights of the Round Table", negotiate with them to enter the city, and meet his king.Then return the holy sword.But now, he got his wish. Gawain appeared at the gate. Among the knights of the round table, he has been with him for the longest time and is also the knight who knows each other best.

"So you were also summoned to this world?" Gawain nodded as he walked towards Bedivere, and at the same time he noticed the duo of Chaldea, "Huh? These two are..."

"They are the master of Chaldea and his servants. Your Excellency Gao Wen should have heard about their deeds from your king." Yi Guang said to Gao Wen, and then reminded him in a low voice, "Be careful , my kind may be nearby."

And very coincidentally, Matthew on the other side also reminded Fujimaru Tachika: "Senior, have you forgotten what Ms. Saber said? There are outsiders like her who have been summoned to other camps. Your Excellency Lancer..."

Having said that, Tatsuka Fujimaru stopped in his tracks, and Gao Wen also secretly signaled the nearby "Suzheng Knights" to step forward, vaguely forming an encirclement circle, enclosing Master Tatsuka Fujimaru and his subordinates and Bedivere. up.At the same time, the "Sun Knight"'s expression became sharper.

The sudden activation of "Humanism Burning" not only made the restraining force lose its power, but even disturbed the laws of the entire Xingyue world to a certain extent.Under such a major premise, not only the existence that was originally modified and sealed by the world began to reappear, but some things that were originally difficult to do can also be easily done by taking advantage of loopholes through certain rituals or means.

For example, heroic spirits that originally needed to be summoned by the master can come to the world by themselves, and even some heroic spirits can travel between singularities without the help of Chaldea's "spirit transfer technology".Another example is seeing the future with both eyes and making predictions about the development of things... These are all things that are possible in the original normal world and require a lot of resources and extremely complicated means. However, in the current In the extraordinary state, everything becomes simple.

Therefore, the Lion King was able to predict the arrival of Yi Guang, and at the same time observe the actions of Chaldea in the other five singularities.Regarding the existence and coming of Chaldea, the Lion King has already made it very clear to his knights.

"The last Master of this world is coming soon, please don't be rude to them."

The Lion King instructed the Knights of the Round Table under him in this way. However, for this group of knights whose minds have been distorted by the power of the Lion King, they have lost their normal understanding of the human heart just like their king.They will treat Yi Guang and Master Sanzang with courtesy, because they are recognized and allowed by the king, so they will show a friendly attitude.However, when the king did not express any clear attitude towards Chaldea, but only expressed it with vague words such as "don't be rude", the distorted side of the Knights of the Round Table began to be revealed.

Just like now, after learning that the other party is a member of Chaldea, Gao Wen behaved like a big brother of the underworld bullying others. The "serious knights" approached menacingly, and slowly surrounded the Chaldean duo and Bedivere. Their tall stature and terrifying armor on their bodies caused a considerable degree of oppression to Fujimaru Tachika and others.

"Gao Wenqing, what are you doing?" Realizing that something was wrong, Bedivere frowned and asked Gao Wen.

"It's nothing, I just want to invite you and these two into the city." Gao Wen said lightly, "It's just that it's an extraordinary period, so we have to be cautious. I personally apologize for the fright you may have received."

"Senior, be careful...Mr. Lanza, I'm afraid he is no longer our comrade in arms." Matthew looked at the "serious knights" around him, raised his shield and placed it in front of him, "Matthew Kyrielight, at any time Prepare to attack, please give the order."

"Your Excellency Gao Wen, this is not right." Yi Guang also looked at Gao Wen and expressed some dissatisfaction with him, "It is easy to cause unnecessary misunderstandings among these people."

"I need to be responsible for the entire 'Holy Capital', Your Excellency Lanza." Gao Wen shook his head, "According to what you said, this is the safest plan at present, we don't know... oh!"

Before Gao Wen finished speaking, he was interrupted by a sudden change.The sudden appearance of killing intent without warning caused alarm bells to ring in the hearts of the two experienced and powerful men.However, when the warning signs in their hearts rose, it was already too late—the surprise attack that had been hidden in the surrounding air for a long time had already come to them.

"Stand back, Your Excellency Gao Wen!"

Although this murderous intent and power came without warning, Yi Guang had already prepared for it, and at the same time he realized something was wrong, there was already a movement in his hands.A faint blue light floated around him, forming a barrier of light curtains in front of him and Gao Wen.

Soul Magic · Twisted Light Wall!

"boom--!"

With a crisp sound, the defensive spell released by Yi Guang was almost instantly shattered by the sudden force.The strong and massive sword light drove straight in, hitting the gate of the "Holy Capital" almost from where everyone was standing.On the pure white city wall, countless milky white holy runes lit up.The seemingly soft light blocked the sudden sword light, and the collision of the two caused shock, forming ripples of light on the soft light-emitting wall.At the same time, a moderate shock wave was created near the city wall, like a gust of wind, which frightened the surrounding refugees and fled the nearby area in panic.

"boom--!!!"

However, relying on the few seconds bought by the soul barrier, Yi Guang led Gao Wen to avoid this almost fatal blow.The golden flame exploded suddenly, and under the movement of Yi Guang's figure, he rushed towards the direction of the sword light like a raging fire dragon.Surrounded by the flames, Yi Guang's figure was like a raging flame monster, roaring and attacking the enemy.

At that moment just now, he had already observed and locked the opponent's position.

"It seems that this is the first battle? The one with the sword...seems like an old friend."

Surrounded by the flames, Yi Guang soared into the air. While twisting his body, the spear in his hand struck the gray figure emitting the sword light with tremendous force - the system had already given a hint, that is, One of the goals of this mission.And judging from the characteristics of this host using a long sword as a weapon, it seems that this host is still his old friend.

Host Saber, the first kind I met, was also the kind that eventually broke up because of disagreement.Although in the following journeys, I also doubted whether I was a little too hasty and struck too hard, but anyway, the reality is already the case, and there has been a rift between him and Saber. Can't be overemphasized.

"..."

Facing the menacing Yi Guang, the gray-robed Saber didn't express any words, but simply swung his sword.A more domineering and brilliant sword light exploded from the ordinary long sword in her hand, turning into a storm of death, colliding with Yi Guang's flame.The seemingly insignificant flames and sword light surged, but they caused a strong wind to surge around.

In the first head-to-head confrontation, the two sides turned out to be evenly matched.

Chapter 484

Two days after Yi Guang came to this singularity, he finally met one of the main targets of his mission.

I don't know whether it's luck or misfortune, but this time I met his "old friend", Saber who once had conflicts due to disagreements in the world of "Su Qing" and forged a grudge.Although in the later time, Yi Guang had some self-doubt about his rash break with Saber in that mission, and he also felt a little apologetic.However, now all this no longer makes sense.

Because, both of them have been involved in this mandatory team battle.Under the rules of the deathmatch, only one of the three hosts can get out alive.Regardless of whether their previous relationship was enemies or friends, in this mission, everyone has no choice but to fight to the death.

Just like now, as soon as the two hosts met, they each used their true skills. Saber hid her aura and launched a surprise attack on Yiguang, but Yiguang dodged and counterattacked. The chilling sword energy and hot divine flames stirred in the air. Under the power of an inhuman monster, it instantly turned into fly ash.

And this is just the first attack between the two hosts for the purpose of testing each other.

"Powerful...not to be underestimated...you need to use your full strength..."

Face to face with Yiguang, Saber made a hoarse and somewhat incoherent voice from the mouth hidden under the worn-out hood and mask.This surprised Yi Guang. When he met this woman for the first time, apart from the weird white hair, her appearance could be called a beauty, and her voice was also very magnetic. .However, what came from under the hood and mask now was exactly like an old broken bellows blowing wind.Not only was it hoarse and ugly, but it also carried a sense of reluctance as if it was about to die.

What has she been through?

However, now is really not the time to think about this matter, Saber changed his move again without seeing an inch of success in one blow.A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from her body, so strong that even Yi Guang had to retreat temporarily.Some kind of realm formed around her, an invisible force sweeping across space and earth.The places swept by this force, whether it be "Suzheng Knights", ordinary "Holy Capital" soldiers, or even Gao Wen, who received the blessing of the Lion King's "Holy Grail" as a heroic spirit, all knelt down involuntarily.

"Sword Intent King..."

With just a few simple words, Saber really made every move, causing almost everyone present to kneel on the ground, as if all court civil and military men bowed down to the supreme king.However, considering Saber's weird appearance, the arrogance shown in this field, and her current strength, it may be more appropriate to call it a "god and demon".

"This is... abominable!"

As a knight of the Lion King, Gawain certainly couldn't kneel to anyone other than his own king.However, he couldn't restrain his body, the force from the air in all directions forced his body down.However, thanks to the blessing of "White Night" and the strengthening of the power of "Digit Saint", he did not lose his composure and maintained his honor as a knight.As for Bedivere, who came to Gawain's side in the chaos, a burst of golden light suddenly erupted from his silver-white prosthetic limb, and he was also resisting the inexplicable power displayed by Saber.

"Senior, are you alright, Miss Saber... and Mr. Bedivere."

"There's no time to worry about that, this power is simply..."

"senior!"

On the side of Chaldea, Mash activated his mimetic treasure "Lord Chaldeas" in time, and successfully resisted Saber's coercion, becoming one of the few on the field, still The second person standing.

"Those two people... Could it be that Mr. Lanza is the enemy that Ms. Saber said she was following?"

"Do you think this kind of thing will be useful to me? Saber!" As Saber's main opponent, Yi Guang is completely unaffected by this so-called "Sword Intent·King".It's just something similar to "God's Domain", and it doesn't even have its own laws. "It's just a toy for bullying existences weaker than you."

Raising the gun again, Yi Guang transformed into the shadow of a roaring wolf from the raging flames. Cooperating with the "Wolf Sword Step" attack, the spear in his hand swung like a hungry wolf opening its bloody mouth. It seemed that Saber was about to be bitten and crushed.The raging flames even overwhelmed the blessing of Gawain's "White Night" and the holy white light of the "Holy Capital", turning the sky into a gorgeous and dazzling golden color.

But soon, everyone knew that this so-called "Sword Intent·King" was not just a simple aura, and the expansion of the field was just the beginning of Saber's offensive.

The swords of everyone present, whether it is the dilapidated iron swords preserved among the refugees, the standard sabers used by the soldiers of the "Holy Capital", or the special knight swords used by the "serious knights"... countless swords They all left the earth one after another, left their original masters, and under Saber's command, they were like thousands of spirit snakes, shooting towards Yi Guang from all directions.Under the blessing of some kind of power, these ordinary irons of uneven quality have been strengthened enough to cause damage to Yi Guang. Yi Guang's flames were crushed by these long swords that shot like a swarm of insects.The originally imposing attack suddenly stagnated.

Sword Intent·King is not only for people but also for swords. The blades inspired by this power will be like soldiers obeying the king's orders, abandoning the original owner's scabbard, and turning into the invincible power in Saber's hands.
