The sky gradually darkened, and the fifth night of the Holy Grail War arrived.
This dungeon will last for seven nights in total. The first night is the summoning night. Seven players take on the role of masters and summon their respective heroic spirits. At the same time, they can conduct the first round of battles; then from the second night to the sixth night,
It's a free activity. You can spend your time as you wish. You can wander around looking for enemies, you can make an appointment with an opponent for a duel at a time and place, you can do nothing and concentrate on making soy sauce, or you can go to the edge of the dungeon to dig.
It is not a bad idea to hide in the pit and act like a groundhog; on the seventh night, all surviving Masters and Heroic Spirits will be forcibly summoned to a certain spiritual node for a straightforward duel to produce the final winner.
There is nothing wrong with this setting, and most players can accept it.
Although some people criticized the forced duel at the end, which was completely untechnical, the Holy Grail War dungeon was only opened once a week, and only seven players could participate at a time. It was unknown how many people competed for the dungeon that was refreshed every week.
The seven Holy Grail War invitation tickets - commonly known as tickets - are fiercely contested. For those players who are eager to get tickets, as long as they can participate in the war, the conditions are easy to negotiate.
Just as Natsume, the winner of the second Holy Grail copy, said on the forum in May, "If you don't like this kind of rules, you can just ask for it. Since you are here, you have to act according to the rules." - This player is good at archery.
In the dungeon with the background of war, the heroic spirit "Assassin" was summoned. The master and servant used sniping and assassination methods to kill all other masters, and finally successfully won the Holy Grail.
Unfortunately, since they played such a sniper battle, the system has been adjusted... For example, when the player master dies but the heroic spirit is still there, there is a certain possibility that an NPC master will be spawned.
For example, the little girl standing in front of Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao now.
"I never knew that child labor was recruited in the Holy Grail War..." Cheng Peng put his hand on his forehead, feeling weak. "Although she will be the heroine in the future, she is only six or seven years old now!"
"Yeah... To kill such a cute child would be like a thunderbolt..." Du Sanmiao completely forgot that she was still a "child" at this moment, her motherly nature glowed, "And I really can't do it.
!”
She was right. This little girl named Tohsaka Rin looks extremely innocent and cute, and has a very smart and lively personality. She belongs to the type who should stay with her parents and enjoy a happy childhood. She is not suitable for the life-and-death Holy Grail War at all.
!
However, she did participate in the Holy Grail War as a Master.
"I'm talking about Gilgamesh, you are also the oldest king after all. As for letting such a little girl go to the battlefield for a little magic power?" Cheng Peng looked at Gilgamesh who looked a little embarrassed and asked in confusion, "
Such unruly things are not like your style!"
"Hmph... who knows what the Holy Grail is doing!" Gilgamesh snorted and explained with an unhappy face, "I just dragged the body of that stupid cat to the church, and then the church asked the Tohsaka family to claim it -
—After all, there is a Command Seal on the corpse. As a result, the Command Seal was inexplicably transferred to this little girl!"
"Do you think this king is the kind of loser who can't fight without his master? Don't be too arrogant!"
Gilgamesh is right. His "Archer" class can provide the ability to act independently of the master. Even if the master is gone, he can still continue to fight. As for "it must be used by the master's side"
The problem with "Powerful Noble Phantasm" - He had already been sealed with the Guili Sword in the battle to defeat the great evil, so he had no "powerful Noble Phantasm" to use, and it had no effect at all.
"It seems that the system is causing trouble... After all, the Tohsaka family is one of the three imperial families, and Rin Tosaka is one of the masters of the Fifth Holy Grail War..." Du Sanae sighed in the private chat channel, "What a pity.
!There is a huge gap in strength between heroic spirits with a master and heroic spirits without a master!"
It is indeed a pity, it is indeed regrettable, and it is indeed terrible.
Because Gilgamesh appeared in front of them this time not for greetings, nor to introduce his master, nor to be laughed at, but to fight.
Out of dissatisfaction with Cheng Peng's inability to protect him last night, which resulted in the death of his former master Tsuchimikado Hisae, Gilgamesh even gave up his entanglement with Saber and approached Cheng Peng.
Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come. Everyone knows this truth.
So when Gilgamesh landed from the sky in a golden flying boat with his new master Tohsaka Rin, Cheng Peng and Du Sanae were ready for battle.
As expected, after a brief introduction, Gilgamesh talked about what happened last night.
In fact, there is really nothing to say about this matter - even though it is not Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao's fault, they were originally hostile, and now that the temporary alliance has been dissolved, what else is there to worry about?
Just hit it!
He didn't say anything for a moment, but when Cheng Peng faced Gilgamesh, who was in the posture of calling for an attack, he sneered and replied, "If you want to fight, fight!" and the battle broke out.
Gilgamesh's eyes widened, and the air around him swayed like water waves, turning into brilliant gold.
In the next moment, he will unfold the "King's Treasure" and cover the entire battlefield with an overwhelming rain of precious phantoms.
Cheng Peng's figure suddenly disappeared, leaving only an afterimage on the spot, and his true body rushed towards Gilgamesh like lightning.
Facing this powerful enemy, we must firmly seize the opportunity and never let him take the initiative!
But he couldn't make it through.
Because he underestimated one person - Gilgamesh's master, the seven-year-old Tosaka Rin.
The Tosaka family's magic is called gem magic, which stores a large amount of magic power in precious gems to perform magic quickly and quickly, or to use this magic power to perform magic that exceeds one's own abilities.
Of course, it is impossible for Rin Tosaka to have those gems ten years later, but her father Tosaka Tokiomi is still alive and the Tosaka family has not yet declined, so he can provide her with enough gems to spend as much as she likes.
Moreover... as an elite-level NPC, Tohsaka Rin's combat awareness is by no means comparable to Tsuchimikado Hisae's!
As soon as the battle started, before Gilgamesh had time to unfold the King's Treasure, and before Cheng Peng had time to charge, she threw the gem she had already held in her hand.
The golden gem turned into a dazzling electric light the moment it was released, covering the space between the two parties, turning the short distance into a layered electrical grid.
Not only that, she immediately took out the second gem, took it out, and turned it into a ball of bright red flames.
If Cheng Peng's Qing Gong "Huajianyou" was not the best at turning around freely, being able to forcefully reverse the direction at the critical moment and change from forward to backward, he would definitely have crashed into the hell furnace of thunder, lightning and flames.
In warrior form, he is an assassin. He only has martial arts and extraordinary high speed, but no ability to resist magic. If he rushes in rashly, he will definitely be severely injured.
On one side is Gilgamesh who is in good condition, and on the other is Cheng Peng who is seriously injured. The outcome of the battle is clear at a glance.
Cheng Peng's retreat was obviously beyond Tohsaka Rin's expectation. The little girl's eyes widened and she looked in disbelief at him who just turned into a phantom and rushed forward, but in the next moment he retreated out of the range of his magic. Very quickly
There's something about being stunned.
"This speed... is simply a foul!" Cheng Peng clearly heard the little girl's dissatisfied complaints, "Even a heroic spirit can't reach this speed! How can anyone beat me like this!"
But in fact, she doesn't need to complain, because she has bought enough time for her followers.
Just enough time for Gilgamesh to fully open the door to the King's Treasure House!
Golden light flashed, countless ripples appeared in the air, and countless sharp blades emerged.
Each weapon emits strong magic fluctuations. These fluctuations gather together and turn into a pressure that can make the sky tremble.
Gilgamesh didn't talk nonsense, he just manipulated the King's Treasure and shot countless Noble Phantasms towards Cheng Peng like raindrops.
In just an instant, the cold light covered half of the street, overwhelming the sky and making it impossible to avoid.
The cold light flickered and murderous intent overflowed, even the night was illuminated. The light of the street lamp reflected on the cold blade, and the stars connected together, as if the stars in the sky had fallen to the earth.
This is an extraordinary beauty, but it is also a deadly sight!
Facing the countless Noble Phantasms pouring out from the King's Treasure House, Cheng Peng seemed to be frightened. He even forgot to escape and stood there blankly. He didn't even make a blocking gesture. He was so stubborn.
Suffering from countless sharp knives.
The cold light is like the tide, and the sharp blade is like the rain.
In just an instant, Cheng Peng and the large area around him were completely covered by the heavy rain of the Noble Phantasm.
The extremely sharp Noble Phantasm tore through the ground and walls effortlessly, with a refreshing squeaking sound. Smoke rose from the broken buildings, covering the ground.
After a while, the smoke dissipated.
In the grass-like forest of Noble Phantasms, the young man wearing sportswear and using his bare hands, who did not look like a heroic spirit at all, was replaced by a man wearing golden armor as bright as the sun, holding a crystal-clear weapon.
An ancient general with a spear and a raging fighting spirit!
"Let me introduce myself again." Cheng Peng raised his head and took in the surprised expressions of Gilgamesh and Tohsaka Rin. "I, Cheng Peng, come from China. I became famous in the Three Kingdoms era at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. My rank is - Gun
