To be king and magician

"It's overrated. However, it is said to be a battle, but in fact, since we reached a consensus halfway, he and I have not engaged in serious battles. If I have to say it... it is similar to competition."

Isn't such a fierce battle the two of them's full strength?Regardless of King Solomon, Xia Chuanhu's strength once again refreshed Maris Billy's impression of him. According to intelligence records, ten years ago, he was just an ordinary person who knew nothing about magic. It has grown to this point within a year.

It's not so much his talent, it's better to say that he has endless opportunities, let's go to the sky in one step.

"So, regarding the consensus you reached during the battle..."

"This is what I want to come back to tell you, Master. In this Holy Grail War, we are already losers on the surface, but in terms of actual results, we can still achieve our goal."

"Whether you want to get a lot of money through the Holy Grail, or I want to be human, we can still achieve our wishes through the Holy Grail."

King Solomon's words made Maris Billy frown: "You mean... no matter who the winner will be, we can get the Holy Grail at the end?"

"The final winner must be the elf envoy, there is nothing wrong with that, he has a reason to win, but for him, all he wants is the fact of [victory], the Holy Grail is not what he desires. "

"In other words, did His Excellency Xia Chuan promise to hand over the Holy Grail to us after he wins?"

"He didn't say that, but I think he will. This is also part of the consensus I reached with him. Of course, I think he will accept your request to invite him to join Chaldea, but the form How much will be different."

Maris Billy was silent for a while: "Are you sure, is this also part of the [consensus] you reached?"

"It's just a matter of mutual understanding."

"And what if something goes wrong?"

"No, even if something goes wrong, there are alternatives." The figure that repeatedly hindered him appeared in King Solomon's mind.

Even if the Holy Grail of this Holy Grail War can't be used by him, it doesn't matter.

There is not only one Holy Grail.

At the same time, on the battlefield.

"Qiang! Qiang! Qiang! Qiang!"

The holy sword and the magic gun collided fiercely in the air countless times, thousands of sparks burst out one after another, and the tip of the gun and the blade continued to tear the earth and everything around it.

Compared with the battle between Xia Chuanhu and King Solomon, the battle between Artoria and Scathach does not have all kinds of excessive special effects, and there is no light pollution that can blind people's eyes. If Xia Chuanhu's battle is a magical blockbuster If so, then what the two of them are performing now is a pure super martial arts movie without any special effects.

Scathach didn't use rune magic, and Arturia didn't release the holy sword and scabbard. The two just engaged in the simplest hand-to-hand combat with their own martial arts.

It's also the most pleasing to the eye.

And in this battle, what can surprise and surprise people is——

"Lia has the upper hand." Morgan analyzed the battle situation. "Should it be said that it was thanks to an excellent master, or did the return of the scabbard give her unscrupulous confidence? A burst of anger led to this extraordinary performance?"

Presumably it must be all three.

The sufficient magic power provided by Xia Chuanhu increased Artoria's ability value.The presence of the scabbard allows her to ignore minor injuries and adopt more daring tactics.And all the unwillingness and self-blame accumulated in the past few days made her fighting spirit unprecedentedly high.

The combination of the three makes the current Arturia almost have the upper hand.

"Chong————!"

The magic gun and the holy sword crossed again, and the blade of the gun quickly passed Artoria's cheek, cutting off a few strands of blond hair and drawing a wound on her face, and similarly, the holy sword followed closely It grazed Scathach's waist, tearing the black tights and the body underneath.

It was still a bruise, and in the previous few minutes of fighting between the two, this situation of bruising each other had happened no less than ten times.

But this time, things are a little different.

"The wound caused by Scathach is shallower than Liya's."

Because he can fully grasp the surrounding situation, Xia Chuanhu has a deeper understanding of the battle situation than the two parties involved. He can feel that the wound on Scarha's waist is half deeper than the one she left on Artoria's face The look of the fingertips.

This is only a small gap, but it is indeed a gap.

Looking at the unscathed Artoria, a satisfied smile appeared on the face of Scathach, who had already opened the distance and reassembled his posture: "As expected of the world-renowned King of Knights, this is the first time I have fought in battle. Falling into a downwind is really a fresh experience.”

"Me too, Lancer, among the people I know, you are undoubtedly the most powerful person in terms of spear skills, even if you say that you can rival gods with spear skills, I will not doubt the truth. It is an honor for me as a knight to fight against an enemy as strong as you."

After the actual fight, Arturia actually felt a little lucky in her heart. She was glad that she had the scabbard. If the scabbard hadn't been treating her all the time, she would definitely have more wounds than Scarhad now.

In order to maintain the upper hand, her offensive was slightly disregarded of defense, so she also gave a lot of openings.

(But if there is no scabbard, I would not have such a style.)

When she still had the scabbard, she fought like this. It can only be said that she has returned to her original intention.

"Then, although it's good to continue fighting like this, but since it's a battle, it won't end without a winner."

Scathach set up the magic gun, and the bright red cyclone swirled around the gun, and a chill rushed into Artoria's heart in an instant.

This blow is—

[Liya, this is Lancer's treasure. The specific effect is to use the first magic gun to nail the enemy to space and deprive him of freedom, and then use the second magic gun to throw it with all his strength to cut off his life.It should be noted that this Noble Phantasm is a causal Noble Phantasm, and death will definitely be achieved by piercing the heart]

Xia Chuanhu's voice came from his mind.

(Thank you for sharing the information, Master.)

Artoria once again felt the fact that she was lucky. I am afraid that she will not meet such an excellent master as Natsukawa Tiger if she participates in other Holy Grail Wars in the future.

Returning the scabbard, reconciling herself with Sir Mordred, meeting Morgan again and improving her relationship, providing all-round combat assistance... Artoria didn't think she could get such a great kindness Give a corresponding thank you.

Therefore, one time is good, at least bring him back one victory.

Scathach had already stabbed forward with a gun, and the first shot he stabbed would nail himself in the space. Since this is the case, it will be easy to deal with it.

"Reveal..."

Arturia's chest glowed brightly.

"—[Avalon], an independent ideal township (Avalon)]!"

89. The Silver Saint who drives Gundam

defeat.

This is a feeling that Scathach has never experienced. Although she wants to die, she is still a warrior. She will want to conquer traps that are enough to kill herself. Overcome each other's ideas.

She who wants to challenge when she sees a strong person will unintentionally become stronger.

Therefore, Scathach has never died, and has been close to death countless times, but every time he has not been able to fully devote himself to death.

However, this time she realized it.

The magic spear that is sure to hit and kill, the treasure of the gun that Scathach is proud of—[Gae Bolg Alternative]—the tip of the gun can nail Arturia to the space, He was stopped halfway before touching her.

The light shining from Artoria's chest was broken into countless fragments, forming a barrier of light that enveloped her, and outside the barrier, the tip of the magic gun was rubbing against it, It's like trying desperately to break through it.

But this is impossible.

"Absolute defense in the true sense, a barrier that even King Gilgamesh's Deviant Sword can't break through... This is the first time I've actually seen it."

Avalon has been in Xia Chuanhu's hands for almost five years, but it is incredible that Xia Chuanhu has never liberated it once, basically using it as a mobile spring.

After all, under normal circumstances, Liberation, its real name, would not be used at all, and where it was to be used, it would most likely be lent to other people by Xia Chuanhu.

For example, Gray, or Qingzi.

Therefore, this was indeed the first time Xia Chuanhu saw Avalon's liberation.

On the other hand, Morgan's eyes showed some nostalgia. Artoria, who was holding the scabbard and the holy sword at the same time, was the most powerful posture of King Arthur--how many years have I not seen it? Woolen cloth?Artoria looked like she would never and could never fall.

(The scabbard for absolute protection...this is your trump card, Saber.)

As long as this scabbard is still there, Arturia is an existence that cannot be defeated. Even if the enemy is the King of Magic, even if the enemy is the King of Heroes, facing this enchantment, she can only sigh and stop.

I can't penetrate this barrier, the only chance of winning is to defeat Artoria before she opens the barrier, but that chance is gone.

After understanding this, Scathach sighed helplessly, and stopped her stabbing action, and the moment she stopped——

"Chila——!"

The brilliance of the holy sword flashed past, blood splashed from Scathach's shoulder, and a huge and hideous wound landed on her body.

The depth of the wound undoubtedly touched the heart. In the case of the follower, it was the spiritual core, the core of the follower's body. Artoria's sword perfectly shattered it.

Once the spiritual core is broken, it will be a matter of time before the followers leave the field.

The severe pain that she had never experienced before made Skaha couldn't help laughing. This was the first time she felt such severe pain. The strength was continuously lost from the body along with the blood, and her feet even felt a little weak It became unsteady to stand, and the consciousness became more and more lax little by little.

"Is this what death feels like?"

"I guess there is still a feeling of defeat."

Xia Chuanhu who came to Skaha said so.

"Did you have fun playing? Queen Scathach."

"Enjoy yourself... Well, it can be said that although I have not been able to fight against you once, it is an acceptable result for me to be able to fight against the King of Knights in his heyday, and the most important thing is that I Finally experienced a death."

"Even if it's just this avatar, a servant who died, I am still alive, but the memory of death and the feeling of death, the real me will definitely feel the same."

Fight someone who is enough to kill him, and be killed.This is why Scathach responded to the Holy Grail and Aoko Aozaki's call. She has no need for the Holy Grail, and now she has realized her wish.

The ruby-like eyes fell on Xia Chuanhu, and Skaha smiled and said: "It seems that we will save the fight with you until the next time. Remember carefully, the little guy named Xia Chuanhu, between me and you There are still unfinished promises, no matter what method I use, I will let you fulfill them."

At the same time as the voice fell, Scathach's body gradually scattered a large number of light spots, and quickly disappeared in place.

Lancer Scathach, exit.

"In this way, there are three, and there are four remaining servants."

Arturia, King Solomon, Souji Okita, and Odysseus.

If you just want to use the Holy Grail to make a wish, the magic power of the three servants is actually enough. After all, whether it is King Solomon's wish or Maris Billy's wish, it will not consume a lot of magic power.

but--

"It seems that we just caught up with the exit of the last actor, and the connection is seamless."

As if it was uploaded directly from the sky, the sound that was obviously amplified by the loudspeaker made the three people present look up, and then, as if the veil covering their bodies was removed, in the empty In the distant river of Yiwu, a [giant monster] gradually appeared.

That is a horse.

A white horse with a whole body, but it is not a real horse, because it is not a creature, but a high-tech aircraft with the appearance of a horse that normally only appears in sci-fi movies. First.

"This is......"

Both Artoria and Morgan opened their eyes wide, looking at the huge existence that appeared in front of them in disbelief. It's not like they haven't seen huge individuals before, and Artoria has even faced the white dragon Vortigern.

But in terms of size, the mecha in front of me is even bigger than Vortigerm!
