Chapter 17 The Knights of the Yangtze River

My name is Lin Hao,

I'm waiting for the (gao) battle (shi) to begin.

224:36:48

It's been a long time since Ryunosuke Ubu has seen Caster.

Although based on the knowledge she learned from Tokiomi Tosaka, she should be his Servant, but that knowledge cannot explain why a Servant can appear five years in advance and enable an ordinary person to possess a magic circuit and self-control.

Master unsystematic magic.

It is even more impossible to explain how the staggering number of death vortexes surrounding her came from the fact that the earth was destroyed hundreds of times.

After she gave herself the ability of "magic" and created an opportunity for Ryuunosuke to become a disciple of Tokiomi Tosaka, she no longer wore the outfit that was supposed to be a "noble phantom" and wore white with a small purple suit for daily wear.

Dresses are the most common.

Oh, this is what he saw after he finally blocked his keen sense of death through magic means, because the "whirlpool of death" wrapped around her body became more and more obvious. If he didn't block it out, he would sooner or later

Will go crazy because of this.

When he met him occasionally, Caster didn't ask him to do anything. Most of the time, he basically told him about the various participants in the Holy Grail War and the heroic spirits they summoned without any real sense, occasionally mixing in strange comments.

The information on those participating in the war is basically correct so far, such as the serious and boring Junior Brother Qi Li, the teacher Tokiomi who always maintains elegance, the numerous assassins who have incarnated themselves, and the Ancient King who is extremely proud but always makes mistakes - oh

, I have never seen him commit a second offense.

She mentioned her wish that no one would die in this Holy Grail War, and this was said by her who was literally death itself... Although it was believable, it was really strange.

It was a year ago that the two parties completely lost contact. At that time, Caster seemed to have occupied Einzbern's castle for a while, but as a result, he alerted his master and came to Fuyuki in advance.

So he left and occupied a hospital workshop?... This causal relationship was too profound for him to understand.

Later, a girl named Lin Hao from Country C appeared. After being admitted to Fuyuki General Hospital, she transferred all kinds of diseases to herself and then used magic to cure her. The reason is also unclear.

But it is certain that she was specially created by Caster for some purpose, because after he handed her information to Junior Brother Kotomine, his whole aura became dangerous, or in Caster's words,

It's about feeling "pleasure".

When he summoned berserker before, Ryunosuke clearly felt that some kind of force trying to summon the master touched the familiar death vortex and was "killed", taking with it the Fuyuki City No. 1 under Ling Tosaka's house.

The abundant spiritual veins dried up immediately. In the end, Tokiomi-sensei concluded that "the consumption of summoning the Ancient King was too great" and waited two days later for another summoning when the spiritual veins were full again.

In this way, Caster must have noticed it, so there will be no problem with today's summons.

Similarly, even if she doesn't make any request, as long as she sets the purpose of all actions in this Holy Grail War as "avoiding the death of any master", she will definitely be able to help.

With this thought in mind, Ryuunosuke Uryu stretched out his hand towards the summoning circle drawn by the gem solution.

"You should blind your eyes with chaos and serve me."

"You are the one imprisoned on the threshold of madness, and I am the one holding the chains in my hand——"

————

Tokiomi Tosaka and Kirei Kotomine, who was carrying the assassin, were watching the ceremony from the side of the summoning circle, but it was unclear whether the "Oldest King" was also there.

Since Gilgamesh's class is gi1gamesh, he has the right to obtain any class abilities he wants. Currently, there are four that can be guessed.

The first is [Acting Alone], which seems to be of a very high level, because he has directly cut off Tokiomi's magic connection since he was summoned. As long as he doesn't show up, there is no way to know where he is.

The second is an ability similar to "You are not allowed to look directly at the king's face without permission." Except for accidentally seeing a row of alternating values ​​​​a, b and ex when he was just summoned, there is no way to know his specific abilities after that.

Next is [Riding]. Ryunosuke and Kirei have seen Gilgamesh skillfully drive a motorcycle several times - a shiny golden motorcycle obtained from someone who knows where.

The last and most important thing is [towards magic power]. Tokiomi has a feeling that if he wants to use command spells to distort the will of the oldest king, he will need at least two command spells, and then he will have to use one more to avoid irritation.

The king kills himself.

This is a completely loss-making transaction and is best avoided unless absolutely necessary.

Compared to the ancient king who had to obey the rites of a minister and was out of control, Tokiomi felt that the assassin summoned by the second disciple was almost perfect. Although this superficial personality could not speak, after giving orders to her, she would have

Appearing an incarnation of another personality to complete, up to 79 incarnations can appear, and new orders can be directly issued to these incarnations, which means that Kirei has 79 assassins at his disposal at this time.

Moreover, those incarnations are not the same, and have different abilities and personalities. There are even some beings that can surpass ordinary heroic spirits in specific attributes, which also corresponds to her name of "Hundred Appearances".

After questioning Qili, he learned that if the Hassan girl with a superficial personality is eliminated, even if the other 79 assassins are alive at that time, they will disappear directly. Therefore, the little girl named "Emil" by her eldest disciple will

Just be well protected.

With the opponent's information roughly clear, Tokiomi came to watch the summoning ceremony because after the last Servant was summoned, the Holy Grail War would officially begin, and he would have to make the next step based on the Berserker's abilities and Noble Phantasm.

action plan.

"Coming from the Wheel of Suppression - Guardian of the Scales -" Ryuunosuke Uryuu recited the final summoning incantation.

Boom boom boom——

Different from the reaction of Assassin and gi1gamesh, the originally crystal clear and transparent gem solution that formed the summoning array instantly turned into blood red, emitting a terrifying dark red light, and a thick black mist began to appear around it and gathered towards the center of the summoning array.

Come, and gradually form a black whirlwind.

Under everyone's slightly wary gaze, the black power that was constantly swirling and rising gradually solidified, turning into a tall figure that could only be described as a "shadow".

His armor absorbed the surrounding light, showing an extreme black color like hell. There were no exquisite decorations or polished colors. The whole thing was still emitting an ominous black mist. His entire face was covered by the helmet.

Covered in the small gap on the front of the helmet.

It revealed a terrifying dark red color, like charcoal about to burn out.

Compared to the girl who was so frightened that she hid behind Kirei, such a figure full of hostility and hatred was more like an assassin.

The mad spell does not have the ability to change the aura of a heroic spirit in this way. Most likely, he is a legendary figure who was originally full of resentment. Tokiomi thought this while giving instructions to Ryunosuke: "Make a contract and ask him about

True name, retaining skills and treasures."

"Ah---!" The black knight roared in a completely unhuman voice.

"Well, that's right, I am your master, and my name is Ryunosuke Uyu." The outstanding disciple communicated without being affected at all.

"...Uh...ah" the black knight continued to roar incomprehensibly.

"Oh, all attributes are A, except for magic power, which is B, you continue." Ryunosuke observed him and responded as if he understood,

"Ah! Oh! Ah!" The black knight's roar suddenly became sharp: "Goo! Gah, gah, gah—"

"Your name is Lancelot, a knight of the Round Table? You appeared in order to challenge King Arthur who had already appeared in this war and was killed? I say this idea of ​​yours is not feasible. It is not coo1 at all." Ryunosuke started.

Go tap the Black Knight on the shoulder.

"No, wait, Ryunosuke, he seemed to have mentioned King Arthur just now? Ask again." Tokiomi Tosaka interrupted quickly.

"Ah——! Shit——!" Berserker's loud voice shook the walls of the workshop.

"Yes, yes, I understand, you disappear first!" Ryunosuke covered his ears and ordered his servant to transform into a spirit.

"I'm sorry, teacher, I'll talk to him for a while first." After berserker disappeared into a burst of black smoke, Ryunosuke Uyuu breathed a sigh of relief and found a chair nearby to sit down.

"Humph, it turns out to be a rabid dog."

A brilliant golden figure appeared next to Tokiomi. He immediately turned around and bowed: "Welcome back, my king, are you satisfied with the subordinates I have summoned for you?"

"You are completely unqualified to receive direct orders from me."

Gilgamesh's sharp red eyes glanced at Ryuunosuke Uyu, who was sitting there talking to himself, and Assassin, who was hiding behind Kirei Kotomine, making the little girl almost fall down with fright.

"However, you can serve as a hound and hunter outside the palace to eliminate harmful beasts for me."

"As you wish, my king." Tokiomi continued to bow: "I will never allow Xiao Xiao to disturb your mood at will."

Gilgamesh didn't answer, turned around and disappeared in a burst of golden light.

"Ah, teacher, Berserker said that he came here because he felt that King Arthur had been summoned, but I don't know who summoned him and where." Ryunosuke Uyuu seemed to have finished the exchange and raised his head and said.

"There is no doubt that it's Saber," Tokiomi nodded and looked in the direction of Einzbern Castle: "So, his Noble Phantasm and skills?"

"Yes, teacher, in addition to carrying the legendary A-level treasure sword, he also has two very interesting treasures," Ryunosuke Uyu said: "One is that he can hold any treasure he has.

The ability to turn something with the concept of 'weapon' into a Noble Phantasm. This ability also allows him to seize other people's Noble Phantasms. The other is the ability to hide his true numerical value. This ability also allows him to disguise his appearance. If combined,

, he can steal someone else's Noble Phantasm and directly transform into the other person, and no one can see it except the other person's master."

It seems... useful in certain situations, and can even be the winner of a comeback. Tokiomi nodded and motioned for his disciple to continue.

"Well, there is also a battle continuation. I don't know how to explain it. It is said that it can only take effect in a glorious battle, and the skill that greatly improves luck cannot be sneak attacks?" Ryunosuke scratched his head.

"Very good..." Tokiomi Tosaka was very satisfied with the servants summoned by his two disciples. With such powerful heroic spirits in hand, the war might be won without the king taking action.

One step closer to the root.
