The Holy Church of Fuyuki Town is located in the southeast of the city, in a slightly remote location, surrounded by farmland and woods. In fact, in order to follow the principle of escapism, most of the buildings related to "mystery" in the Moon World are located in similar places.
When Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao arrived here, the sun had already set on the horizon. Seeing that the day was about to end, the "daily life" for rest was about to end, and the night of the Holy Grail War was about to fall.
They were not the first group of Masters and Servants to arrive, there were already two groups of people arriving before that.
One group is Saber King Arthur and her master "Calm", both of them are wearing crisp black suits, dressed extremely seriously, but I don't know whether it is out of "Calm"'s personal interest or to hide their sight, both of them are wearing
Wide black sunglasses - wearing sunglasses at night... Cheng Peng somewhat doubted whether this guy "Ding Ding" was simply blind, similar to some weirdo Bai Shuo who claimed to be a magician but was actually good at hand-to-hand combat... Another
The group is Archer Gilgamesh and his master "Nine-Tailed Meow". Compared to Saber's group, this group is dressed in a much more personalized way - Archer wears gold armor that is bright enough to be used as a light source at night.
, that armor is extremely gorgeous, and the various decorations make it look like a work of art rather than armor, but the magical light on it proves that it is definitely not a flashy thing; and "Nine-Tailed Meow" is wearing a witch-like suit.
The clothes, but from the loose belt, you can see that she was not careful when wearing them - obviously she is not used to such attire, because through the almost completely open chest of the miko uniform, you can see that she is also wearing a full-fledged dress.
The young and Dangerous style white special attack uniform seems to have the words "Bliss Pure" written on it... It is said that when Archer sees Saber, he should get up and tease her like a fly seeing blood, but maybe they have already had a fight before.
, or perhaps in order to avoid a fight in a neutral church, both parties sensibly remained silent, sitting in two corners of the chapel without saying a word, like four statues.
Seeing the arrival of Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao, Saber and "Ding Ding" stood up, greeted coldly and politely, and then continued to make fake statues; Archer and "Nine-tailed Cat" did not react at all... archer
Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao didn't pay attention at all. "Nine-Tailed Cat"'s eyes were blank, staring blankly at the void in front of him, obviously browsing the forum.
The two Cheng Peng didn't waste any time to introduce themselves - introducing yourself in the Holy Grail War is definitely a stupid thing - they went straight to an unoccupied corner of the chapel and sat down, waiting quietly.
Plot development.
They were not fully armed and were dressed quite casually. Both of them wore lightweight sportswear, which not only facilitated movement, but also concealed the equipment on their bodies and concealed their ranks. In this dungeon, players cannot directly
You have to rely on your own judgment to see the rank and ability of the opponent's heroic spirit, so appropriate disguise is very useful.
Cheng Peng did not switch to the standard lancer class, and still appeared as a pseudo-assassin warrior. Du Sanmiao's attire also made it impossible to guess what she was good at. However, if the situation required, they could switch to the most suitable combat mode at any time.
posture.
Time passed slowly, and the setting sun quickly sank completely, and the afterglow turned into a red cloud on the horizon. This red cloud was a bit dazzling and very coquettish, making people feel uncomfortable just by looking at it.
According to the common sense of meteorology in reality, the sunset means that the weather will be fine tomorrow, and I guess it will be no exception here... Cheng Peng likes good weather. Under the bright moonlight, the master's magic power will be restored much faster.
After a while, the door of the church was pushed open again, and Haigui, still wearing a thick robe and covering his head and face with a hooded hood, and Lu Bu, dressed in military uniform and carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd, walked in.
Lu Bu looked around. His eyes first glanced at Archer, who had a haughty face. He didn't get any response. He sneered disdainfully, and then looked at Saber, who had a serious face. His flaming red eyes met the girl's cold and stern eyes.
He burst out with murderous intent that seemed visible to the naked eye, then ignored the other party and looked at Cheng Peng.
"You are indeed here." He said in a deep voice, "Let's fight again if we have a chance."
Cheng Peng smiled without any malice, as if Lu Bu's murderous eyes didn't exist at all.
"If there is an opportunity to fight again, I would certainly welcome it; however, this battle is not a one-on-one duel, and I don't want to be taken advantage of by others after both sides suffer."
"...You are so boring!"
"As military generals, our bounden duty is to win victory for our lord. For this goal, what does personal interest or honor or disgrace count?" Cheng Peng still smiled kindly, "I think this is probably how we are evaluated in history.
There may be different reasons.”
When Lu Bu heard this, his pupils narrowed suddenly, and a red fighting spirit surged from his body, like a burning flame.
"You! Dare! Satirize! Someone! Home!"
He burst out these words from his teeth one by one, with such awe-inspiring killing intent that the tables and chairs around him were shattered. Archer and Saber were also frightened by this crazy killing intent, and each took a stand to fight.
posture.
But Cheng Peng didn't seem to feel it at all, and smiled calmly: "Lu Fengxian is a great hero, unparalleled in the world. Cheng has always admired your bravery and heroism. In terms of martial arts, I have no chance of winning, but as a human being, I
I feel somewhat confident..."
Lu Bu roared angrily, his murderous intent surging like a raging wave. The broken tables and chairs near him spontaneously ignited without fire, turning into balls of blazing flames. At the same time, the Fangtian Painted Halberd on his shoulder fell down, and he was about to shoot towards him.
Cut it off with Cheng Peng.
"Calm down! Calm down!" Hai Gyu hugged Lu Bu and shouted, "This is a neutral zone. If we want to fight, we have to go out and fight... Anyway, as long as we aim for the Holy Grail, sooner or later we will encounter this bastard again!"
I don't know if it was because his words had an effect, or because there were still strong enemies waiting around, Lu Bu finally suppressed his anger and sat with Haigui in the last empty corner of the chapel.
After this small interlude, silence returned to the chapel.
Until nightfall, the entire chapel fell into darkness, and the fifth group of Masters and Servants did not arrive.
When the moon rose, an old man with pale hair and wearing a priest's robe suddenly appeared next to the podium in front of the chapel.
"My name is Kotomine Rimasa, and I was appointed by the Holy Church to serve as the supervisor of this Holy Grail War." He introduced this way, "Originally, according to the rules, I could only watch and protect the master who gave up the battle, but now
An unexpected emergency occurred, so everyone had to be summoned..."
"Let's get to the point!" Archer interrupted him rudely, "If you plan to waste my time with this kind of nonsense, then even if you break the rules, I will let you understand what regret is!"
The old priest choked on his words and glanced at the four groups of people in the chapel - except for Saber, who was still serious and calm, and Cheng Peng, who was smiling gently, obvious impatience could be seen on the faces of the others.
"Then let me make a long story short - there is a heroic spirit and its master who are currently destroying the rules of the Holy Grail War and unscrupulously eroding the foundation on which the Holy Grail exists. It seems that they want to bypass this sacred ritual with their outstanding magic ability.
Directly seize the Holy Grail that is enough to achieve miracles."
Everyone was shocked, and even Cheng Peng, who had always been calm, couldn't help but stand up in a gaffe.
"What evidence do you have?" More than one person asked.
The old priest rolled up the sleeve of his right hand, revealing symbols that looked like tattoos but continued to exude powerful magic.
That is the Command Seal. Each Master only has three. Just one can exert incredible power, or force an unruly heroic spirit to order, or make one's followers strengthen, or it can be a miraculous proof of healing any injury.
.
"Do you believe this is enough to prove the old man's identity?"
There was silence.
The old priest smiled with satisfaction and continued: "Now, as the supervisor, I announce that the rules of the Holy Grail War will be temporarily modified. All Masters and Servants will temporarily give up hostility, and the goal will be to eliminate those who attempt to undermine the Holy Grail War itself.
enemy!"
"Of course, I will not let your efforts go in vain. In return, after destroying the opponent, I will give you additional command spells. I wonder if you are satisfied with such a reward?"
"Where is the enemy?" It was Lu Bu who spoke this time.
Although the answer was not exactly what was asked, it already showed his attitude.
So the old priest smiled with satisfaction again and turned to look at the other side of the city, far to the northwest opposite the church.
