"The winner has been decided! Under the witness of God, I declare this duel to be fair and just! And the winner of the duel is - Cheng Peng!"
Although Lu Bu had disappeared, the serious King Arthur still loudly announced the result of the duel according to the rules of the knight's duel.
Cheng Peng was not interested in the obvious results. He was interested in those things that Lu Bu said, "please ask the notary to tell you."
"The story is roughly like this..." Chu Fengge first applauded this wonderful duel, and then began to tell.
Hae Kyu received an invitation for a duel... They encountered an ambush at Liudong Temple... The true identity of the assassin... The extremely powerful sword formation... She was very eloquent and told the things Lu Bu introduced vividly. Mo
Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao, who said it was the first time they heard the news, and even King Arthur, Ding Dan and Sunny Xiao, who already knew everything, could not help but be attracted by her wonderful description.
For a moment, the open space in the forest was quiet, except for Chu Fengge's emotional narration.
"...Although Lu Bu escaped, he could no longer exist in the Holy Grail War for a long time after losing his master. Even if he relied on the ability to act independently formed by the command spell, even if he swallowed the lives of many villains, he
It can only continue to exist for one day. But he is unwilling to sign a contract with other masters - so he simply told us the information, asked us to pass it on, and then directly approached you for a duel, hoping to have a happy and satisfying duel.
Duel and let your Holy Grail War end without any regrets." Chu Fengge sighed and came to the final conclusion, "That's how it is. It's a completely objective description without any exaggeration - you can ask His Majesty the Knight King
Ask for confirmation.”
There is no need to ask for confirmation, just look at King Arthur's expression and you will know that what Chu Fengge said is true.
So after a brief discussion, Cheng Peng, who was a little tired from the fierce duel, returned to the Tohsaka house with Du Sanae, and the two heroic spirits who were observing the battle as notaries also left accompanied by their respective masters.
It was still a long time before night, and based on the practice that the Holy Grail War usually did not take place during the day, what they should do now was not to be wary of each other or test each other, but to rest well to recharge their batteries and prepare for the battle at night.
For Cheng Peng, what he needs most now is to fully digest and absorb what he learned in this duel and completely stabilize the four-star basic marksmanship "in a league of his own". Only in this way can he ensure that he can achieve that in future battles.
The exquisite marksmanship is like flowing clouds and flowing water.
For King Arthur and Chu Fengge, the battle next to them was by no means nothing, at least their understanding of "battle" has deepened a lot.
After King Arthur returned to Einzbern Castle, he locked himself in the martial arts training ground. He wielded his sword alone and fought against imaginary enemies. He compared the performance of Cheng Peng and Lu Bu in this duel, especially Cheng Peng.
Peng showed off the shockingly exquisite marksmanship in the last period of time. He carefully considered and carefully speculated on it, and put himself in Lu Bu's position to think about how to deal with it.
This work is very difficult and requires a lot of time and energy, but the rewards are very little - King Arthur's own martial arts is not really that good. He only has the "intuitive" ability honed from many battlefields, and he can barely grasp it.
Cheng Peng tried to understand and decipher the temperament of his unique marksmanship.
From after lunch until it was getting late, she had been practicing hard alone without any slack.
If Ding Dan hadn't persuaded her to rest in order to ensure her fighting ability at night, maybe she would have continued to practice like this until she needed to fight.
As for Chu Fengge, she also watched the duel, but her approach was completely opposite to that of King Arthur.
As if she didn't see anything, nothing happened, she was still wandering around Fuyuki Town with Sunny, as if she didn't come to fight, but to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
An hour or two passed like this, and even Sunny couldn't help but ask her what she wanted to do.
"What do I want to do?" At that time, they were sitting in a cafe with a good location. They could see the river flowing through Fuyuki Town and enjoy the rare natural scenery in the busy city. Hearing this question, Chu Fengge smiled slightly
He smiled and asked, "What do you think I should do?"
"You should practice hard... Cheng's spear skills are so powerful! I have never seen such powerful spear skills! If he had used such spear skills when we fought him last time, maybe we would have
You just lost!" Thinking of Cheng Peng's ridiculously powerful marksmanship, Sunny Xiao's face turned slightly pale, and her heart was filled with fear.
Chu Fengge couldn't help laughing when he heard this, stretched out his hand to rub Sunny's blond hair that was as bright as the sun, and asked with a smile: "Cultivation? What kind of training do you think can allow me to practice in just one afternoon?
Do you have any martial arts skills that can compete with that kind of marksmanship?"
Sunny thought about it for a while, and her face became increasingly ugly.
She is also someone who has experienced a lot of battles. Although her basic swordsmanship barely reaches the two-star level of "Sudden Comprehension", at least she is not bad at it. Cheng Peng's marksmanship is too powerful, and the ice and snow spear in his hand feels like
It was no longer a weapon, but a part of his body. Faced with this kind of marksmanship, Chu Fengge's martial arts skills were indeed inferior.
In fact, Chu Fengge is not weak. She knows how to use at least forty different weapons, and at least a dozen of them have reached two-star proficiency levels. Her usual swords, guns, bows, knives, etc. have all been upgraded to
Three-star rating. In past battles, she could often choose weapons that could be restrained based on the opponent's weapons, and then gain unexpected surprise effects, and thus earned the special title of "Mastery of One Hundred Weapons." In terms of martial arts,
Definitely a doctorate level expert.
However, the trouble is that although Cheng Peng knows many fewer weapons than Chu Fengge, his four-star basic marksmanship alone is enough to counter any of Chu Fengge's martial arts, and he can even firmly gain the upper hand.
There is no distinction between the two directions of erudition and specialization. However, in actual combat, specialization is often better than erudition - because erudition represents a wide range of applications, rather than being specific in one aspect.
Extremely powerful.
To deal with Cheng Peng's marksmanship, Chu Fengge had to break through her basic proficiency with a certain weapon to four stars in just one afternoon - but this was impossible, because her basic skills had broken through
It hasn't been long since he reached three stars, and even the most proficient basic swordsmanship is still far away from four stars.
So just as Chu Fengge said, there is no training that can allow her to break through her basic skills to four stars in a short period of time and acquire martial arts that are enough to compete with Cheng Peng.
"Have you figured it out? Since there is no way we can match him in martial arts, we can only consider another way - after all, we are living people, and we can't be like lemmings with the sea in front of us.
You're still jumping, right?" Chu Fengge said seemingly relaxedly, "I admit that if you want to rely on your fighting ability to fight against him, it is definitely seeking death, even for me. But who stipulates that in the Holy Grail War, only
How about relying on martial arts to determine victory or defeat?"
She raised a finger, waved it in front of Sunny, and said with a smile: "Don't forget, as a 'cavalry', the most powerful thing about me is not my own martial arts, but my precious phantom!"
"Do you want to use that?" Sunny suddenly realized, "Yes! If you use that, even Cheng will never be able to escape unscathed! No - that is the final kill that can kill any enemy!"
"It's just... didn't we originally plan to use it in the final decisive battle to kill all the enemies in one fell swoop?"
Chu Fengge sighed softly, shook his head and said: "Based on the observations over the past few days, our previous idea of 'waiting until the decisive battle to kill all the enemies together with a special weapon' is probably not achievable."
"Why? Is it because the power of the Noble Phantasm is not enough?"
"No, the power of the Noble Phantasm is definitely enough. But the problem is - for the Noble Phantasm to kill all the enemies, it will definitely take some time. The more enemies there are, the more time it will take. Can we persist until that time?
"Chu Fengge's expression was very helpless, as if he had carefully designed a trap, but in the end he discovered that even he would be trapped in it, like a natural hunter, "If I deal with a heroic spirit, I still have the confidence to persist until the enemy is defeated;
But if I deal with a few heroic spirits, I won’t have such confidence."
This was said so clearly that Sunny could understand it without thinking, so her face fell.
"Why is this happening... It's obviously a trick that can only be used once... Such a powerful Noble Phantasm... What a pity..." She murmured in a low voice while scratching her hair vigorously, and continued to carefully
Her long, smooth blond hair was as tangled as a bird's nest, and she could tell that she was extremely distressed.
Chu Fengge ignored Sunny's frustrated thoughts, turned his head, and cast his eyes on the gurgling river not far outside the window, but his thoughts followed the water to the distance.
