However, Lancer's foot moved away, but his thigh had no way to escape.
Wang Xiaoming's left hand directly pierced through his thigh, creating a hole straight through it.
“Ah!!!”
The pain turned Lancer's face green, but he still chose to twist away at the first moment, forcibly moving away from Wang Xiaoming, his thigh pulling away from Wang Xiaoming's hand, bringing out a large amount of blood. The pain was one thing, but what made Lancer even more uncomfortable was that such an injury would affect his mobility. Lancer's high agility relied on the explosive power of his legs to move quickly, but now, one of his thighs had been directly pierced through, crippling him. How was he supposed to fight? Was he supposed to limp and hobble around while fighting? That was impossible.
Crap, he said he was testing the waters, but now there was no way to test anything.
“Can't you just let go, you bastard!”
“That won't do. You're Lancer, with such high agility. If I let go, you'll run far away.”
Lancer landed on both feet, blood flowing from one thigh, and he couldn't even stand steadily. However, his spear was still being held by Wang Xiaoming, not letting go at all, which made it impossible for him to create distance. As long as Wang Xiaoming stepped forward, he would have to use his body to engage in close combat with Wang Xiaoming. It had to be said that he was really not as good at hand-to-hand combat as he was with his spear.
If this continued, he felt that he would be stabbed to death by Wang Xiaoming with one hand.
Lancer stared at Wang Xiaoming's draconic left hand, his eyelids twitching. When this hand pierced Saber's heart before, he didn't see it clearly because Saber's body was blocking it. Later, Archer was pierced through the heart, and he didn't see it clearly because of Archer's resistance. This time, he finally saw it clearly.
Was this even a hand that a human would have? This was basically a claw! You're King Arthur, right? Why can King Arthur's left hand turn into a claw? There's no such thing in the legends of King Arthur! You're not mistaken, are you!
Lancer felt that he probably couldn't even test out the gods. There was no way to test! If he kept testing, he would really lose his life.
Lancer was thinking, but Wang Xiaoming wouldn't give him time to think. He grabbed the spear with his right hand and pulled, pulling Lancer towards him again.
Lancer staggered and was pulled over by Wang Xiaoming, but when he was pulled over, Lancer decisively made a request to his Master. He couldn't continue like this, or he would really be stabbed to death by the opponent's left hand!
“Master, quickly use a Command Spell to save me!”
After Lancer made the request, he immediately received feedback from the other side.
“In the name of the Command Spell, Lancer, come to my side.”
Lancer disappeared from Wang Xiaoming's face with his spear.
Far away from the battlefield, Lancer appeared out of thin air, immediately kneeling on one knee and crouching on the ground. After confirming that he was safe, he breathed a sigh of relief and then sat down on the ground.
“Lancer, what's going on? Didn't I ask you to test the waters? Why are you so badly injured?”
Lancer's Master was a man who looked extremely indifferent.
Kirei Kotomine was killed by Wang Xiaoming ten years ago, so Lancer wouldn't be snatched away by Kirei Kotomine after being summoned.
But embarrassingly, although Kirei Kotomine didn't snatch Lancer away, he was snatched away by another person.
It was still Bazett who summoned Lancer. Bazett took Lancer and wanted to enter Fuyuki, but outside Fuyuki, many magicians were waiting, wanting to find an opportunity to join this Holy Grail War. Then Bazett was tricked during the summoning.
The man who tricked Bazett was the man standing in front of Lancer now.
Souren Araya!
In essence, he should be a character who appeared in the Kara no Kyoukai (Garden of Sinners), but in this parallel world, he replaced Kirei Kotomine and snatched Lancer from Bazett's hands. Bazett was really unlucky.
This Souren Araya was once a monk, belonging to the kind of compassionate character, just like a certain little priest who wanted to save all mankind, or a magician killer who wanted to save the whole world, he always wanted to save everyone.
But reality made him understand that Buddhism could not save all mankind, so he began to enter the path of magic.
Not the evil demons and heretics in fantasy novels, but the path of magic.
He realized that he could never save everyone and began to collect death, interpret the origin of mankind, and pursue the swirl of the Root, believing that there was a way to save mankind in the Root.
Kiritsugu Emiya and Shirou Amakusa felt that the Holy Grail could, but this one was even more fierce, directly rushing to the Root. But the Root was even more difficult to approach than the Holy Grail. In order to open the Root, he studied magic. His ability as a magician was full of loopholes, but he relied on his own strength to override others.
In order to have enough time to study magic, he constantly transplanted his brain to new carriers through magic, forcibly allowing himself to live for more than 200 years. Now he was over 200 years old.
Araya, who has no special talents, has completed himself through constantly accumulated years and beliefs, becoming a first-class barrier master.
There are always three static barriers hanging on his body, and the barrier names are "Fearless", "Diamond", "Scorpion", "Da Tian", "Top Sutra", "Wang Xian", which are opened in a planar and three-dimensional structure. As long as a creature touches the line that constitutes the circle, it will be instantly deprived of its power. From a combat point of view, it is very powerful.
With such strength, he has repeatedly tried to open the passage to the Root, and like those magicians who pursue the Root, he has caused various disasters, but he has never succeeded.
After all, the Root is the foundation of the Type-Moon world, and not everyone can enter.
Until recently, he heard about the Holy Grail. Although many people in the magic world knew about the Holy Grail War before, everyone thought it was just a joke. The omnipotent wishing machine sounded nice, but it had never succeeded in hundreds of years. What was this if not a joke?
But the success of the Fourth Holy Grail War made all magicians know about the Holy Grail War.
Including this Souren Araya.
So, for his ideal, Souren Araya came to Fuyuki, and luckily happened to meet Bazett, and then snatched Lancer, who Bazett had just summoned. As for Bazett, she died tragically on the spot.
Although Lancer was very upset, there was no way. The master-servant contract was in Souren Araya's hands, so he could only obey his orders and come to Fuyuki with him, and then join this Holy Grail War.
Originally, today was only the first day. He was arranged by Souren Araya to go out to test the intelligence of other Servants. Because Souren Araya didn't know much about the Holy Grail War, based on the habit of perfecting information and preparation, he asked Lancer to go out to inquire about information, whether it was the Master or the Servant.
As a result, he didn't expect that on the first night, Lancer would be directly seriously injured, and even learned from Lancer that Saber and Archer had directly withdrawn.
Was this the Holy Grail War? The battle was really fierce! It was so tragic on the first day, and Lancer was also injured. It seemed that it was really a bit difficult to get the Holy Grail.
“Lancer, do you have a way to heal yourself?”
Souren Araya's barrier technique was very strong, but he was very poor at healing magic. He couldn't help Lancer heal, so Lancer had better be able to heal himself.
“Although I am not as good as my teacher, simple treatment is still possible. As long as Master provides enough magic power, I can slowly recover.”
As a body of magic power, as long as important parts are not destroyed, such as the spirit core and heart or head, or severed limbs, some minor injuries can be recovered by magic power.
After Lancer finished speaking, he sat directly on the ground, drew a rune on his thigh, and began to heal himself.
Looking at Lancer's slowly healing thigh, Souren Araya frowned.
“Tell me, Lancer, what exactly did you encounter?”
Lancer nodded while healing.
“After I went out, I soon met a pair of combinations. The other party was Archer and Archer's Master. I had a battle with Archer, but during the battle…”
Lancer began to report the situation to Souren Araya, while on the other side, Wang Xiaoming in the center of the battlefield was also facing a new situation.
After Lancer disappeared from his face, Wang Xiaoming understood that Lancer's Master had summoned him with a Command Spell, just like the previous Archer.
This was not a problem, anyway, it was just his thing of catching a blade barehanded.
Wang Xiaoming summoned Est, preparing to pull Lancer back, but when he was about to swing his sword, new characters appeared next to him.
Because of the previous continuous explosions, the surrounding streetlights were completely damaged, and the lines on the entire street were broken, so it was pitch black.
And in this dark street, a tall figure appeared in Wang Xiaoming's field of vision. Because of the darkness, this figure looked very blurry, but the height could be judged to be at least 2 meters. Next to this tall figure, there was also a very petite figure, which looked less than meters tall. That was a cute loli with silver hair and red eyes.
After Wang Xiaoming noticed her, she politely lifted the corners of her skirt with both hands and greeted him with a smile.
"Good evening, unknown Servant. I am Illyasviel von Einzbern, the Master of the Einzbern family in this Holy Grail War."
"I'm Berserker's Master, please be kind to me! ~ ~"
750. Berserker, kill him!
Illyasviel, Kiritsugu Emiya's legitimate daughter, represents the Einzbern family, one of the three founding families, in the Fifth Holy Grail War, and is one of the three fixed Masters in each Holy Grail War.
In the previous Holy Grail War, the Einzbern family's Master was her father, Kiritsugu Emiya, and this time, it's her turn.
Because of Wang Xiaoming, Kiritsugu Emiya did not die, but he is in a rather awkward situation. Although he didn't die, he is still separated from his wife and daughter.
However, Illyasviel never saw Kiritsugu Emiya from the beginning.
Because after Kiritsugu Emiya left to participate in the Holy Grail War, Illyasviel was placed under surveillance, and after Kiritsugu Emiya returned from the Holy Grail War, he was immediately driven out. He didn't even have the chance to enter the Einzbern castle, so he never saw Illyasviel.
Correspondingly, Irisviel was also captured. As a homunculus of the Einzbern family, she was no different from other homunculi. She acted according to the programmed commands. During the years she lived with Kiritsugu Emiya, she successfully developed the emotions of a normal person. In essence, the Einzbern family does not allow this kind of homunculus behavior.
But they didn't care, because Irisviel was to be sacrificed as the Lesser Grail.
However, not only was Irisviel not sacrificed, but she even possessed the heart of a normal person, allowing her to live like a normal person. Moreover, due to her homunculus body structure, her magic circuits were excellent, making her more talented in magic than ordinary people. After all, when homunculi were initially designed, many artificial magic circuits were incorporated, and artificial circuits are also magic circuits.
Therefore, Irisviel was reclaimed by the Einzbern family. With the attitude that magicians have towards magical materials, it's easy to imagine that Irisviel became an object of research. The good thing was that she was still able to move freely within the castle and was not sealed and designated to be made into a specimen soaked in formalin.
Irisviel explained to Illyasviel that Kiritsugu Emiya couldn't see her because he couldn't get in.
At first, Illyasviel believed it, but as time went on, ten years passed, and Kiritsugu Emiya never appeared once. Illyasviel began to hate Kiritsugu Emiya in her heart, hating him for not coming to see her even once.
Most importantly, later on, Illyasviel also learned about Kiritsugu Emiya's news. It was one thing for this man not to come to see her, but he even adopted a child outside named Shirou Emiya!
Good heavens, this was a major problem. It was one thing not to come, but he even raised a son outside. What was this father thinking!
Irisviel didn't know how to explain it anymore, and Illyasviel directly turned dark.
The ten-year period had arrived, and Illyasviel directly returned as the Dragon King, just kidding, she directly became the new Master of the Einzbern family. Through Kiritsugu Emiya, the Einzbern family felt that the magicians outside were useless and that they should still use their own people.
Therefore, Illyasviel, with the Berserker she summoned, the legendary Hercules, joined this Holy Grail War.
And the first thing she did upon arriving in Fuyuki City was to investigate Kiritsugu Emiya and his son, Shirou Emiya.
However, the investigation results showed that Kiritsugu Emiya had been dead for several years, having died during a mission.
As a Magus Killer, Kiritsugu Emiya needed money to live, so he naturally had to go out and do missions. You can't expect him to repair electrical wires to support Shirou Emiya, right?
After Kiritsugu Emiya died, he left Shirou Emiya alone.
Therefore, after investigating Shirou Emiya's location, she took Berserker and entered Fuyuki City.
As a result, from afar, she saw a scene like a nuclear bomb explosion. She understood that Shirou Emiya had also been drawn into the Holy Grail War.
So Illyasviel ordered Berserker to take her to Shirou Emiya's house as quickly as possible.
As a result, as soon as she arrived at the door, she saw Wang Xiaoming beating Lancer. After being beaten up, Lancer disappeared on the spot.
Obviously, this disappearance on the spot meant that he was summoned away by his Master.
Illyasviel hadn't arrived when Saber and Archer died before, so she didn't know what Wang Xiaoming had done. She only saw Wang Xiaoming beating Lancer and thought that Wang Xiaoming and Lancer were fighting alone.
Watching Lancer leave, Illyasviel didn't intend to hide and directly brought Berserker out from behind the scenes.
Illyasviel wasn't clear about Wang Xiaoming's affairs. After Irisviel returned, she didn't tell her about the King Arthur, so when Illyasviel saw Wang Xiaoming beating Lancer, she simply thought that Lancer was weak and didn't think that Wang Xiaoming was strong. After all, Wang Xiaoming was just standing there, grabbing Lancer's spear, constantly pulling him over and then attacking.
Her family's Berserker could also do this kind of thing, and it would be a piece of cake. At most, it could only show that Wang Xiaoming's strength was relatively powerful.
"Please allow me to introduce my Servant."
Illyasviel gracefully lifted her little skirt and looked at Wang Xiaoming with a smile.
"This is Berserker, my Servant. I'm very happy to meet you here, unknown Servant."
Wang Xiaoming didn't speak, just looked at the black and strong figure behind Illyasviel. Berserker, compared to the Lancelot in the previous Holy Grail War, this time's B-rank was even more terrifying in combat ability. Lancelot was too mixed up, he was just messing around from beginning to end, completely useless.
This time's B-rank was really awesome.
However, unfortunately, no matter how awesome B-rank was, it was useless. Wang Xiaoming had too many methods to deal with him.
However, this loli didn't seem to understand this matter. After she introduced herself, she directly raised her hand and pointed at Wang Xiaoming.
"Go, Berserker, kill him!"
Good heavens, she was letting Berserker attack right away, she was really bold!
However, Hercules's strength did indeed support her being so bold.
Hearing the order to attack, Berserker directly opened his arms and shouted at the sky, then immediately rushed towards Wang Xiaoming.
With a height of more than 2 meters, rushing up was like a tank, overturning all the damaged buildings along the way, charging towards Wang Xiaoming's face with an unstoppable posture.
Wang Xiaoming originally wanted to use "empty-handed blade catch" to call Lancer back, but now it seemed that before calling Lancer back, he had to get rid of Berserker first.
Since that was the case, then he should get rid of Berserker first.
Facing Berserker rushing towards him, Wang Xiaoming slowly raised his right hand, empty-handed, facing Berserker, watching Berserker rush in front of him, and using the momentum of a tank charge, he swung his huge fist and slammed it down on Wang Xiaoming.
Boom—
The ground behind Wang Xiaoming directly cracked a large area, instantly shattering into pieces.
However, Wang Xiaoming, as the starting point of the cracking, stood firmly in place, his right hand single-handedly blocking Berserker's fist.
751. Berserker, stand up!!
Berserker's fist was powerful and heavy, but for Wang Xiaoming, this bit of strength was not enough!
Berserker was the Great Hercules, that's right, but he was only a demigod. His strength hadn't become heaven-defying after becoming a Heroic Spirit. Looking at Berserker's current state, this level of strength, if thrown into a world full of seas, that strength could really only be considered middle-tier. There were countless more perverted strengths there.
For Wang Xiaoming, this bit of strength was naturally completely insufficient. Did he really think Lancer was so easy to deal with? Lancer was a demigod like Berserker, and Lancer's strength was also very powerful.
Therefore, Berserker's strength couldn't get any advantage here with Wang Xiaoming.
Although Berserker had lost his sanity, his fighting instinct was still there, and because of Illyasviel's sake, Berserker was just unable to speak, not really completely losing his sanity. Some operations in battle were completely fine.
This punch went down, carrying his charge, but was intercepted by the other party on the spot. This showed that the god, this showed that the other party's strength was stronger than himself, and the other party's body endurance was more perverted than him. Who exactly was Berserker?
