But the black side's Assassin still appeared on the battlefield, so there is only one possibility, the one who replaced Sagara Houma as Assassin's master is Matou Zouken.
Just as Kotomine Shiro was muttering to himself, a silver-white knife was pressed against his neck and a loud laugh came from behind him.
"Brother, you can't let your guard down like this."
The silver-haired girl, with an innocent smile, lay behind Kotomine Shiro, with the blade in her hand pressed against Kotomine Shiro's neck.
It's not that his revelation didn't produce any reaction at that moment, it's just that there was no need to react to it.
If Matou Zouken really came with the intention of killing him, he would not have chosen this place to meet him.
I'm afraid this is just a warning.
And Kojimine Shiro recognized his real name the first time he saw him.
"Jack the Ripper—"
The silver-white girl's eyes became sharp, and blood slowly flowed out from her neck along the blade.
He only has some of the functions of a Ruler, and cannot directly determine the location of a Servant like Jeanne. Even if an Assassin is very good at hiding his aura, Jeanne will be able to sense it when he appears around her.
This is the function given to her by the Holy Grail, and Kotomine Shiro, who has lost this identity, only has the ability to know her real name just by looking at her.
"Stop it, Assassin."
At this time, Matou Zouken also made a sound, causing Jack the Ripper to stop what he was doing.
"Qi!"
All that could be heard was her sighing, which seemed to indicate she was very dissatisfied. Her figure disappeared from behind Kotomine Shiro and appeared next to Matou Zouken.
"What is your wish?"
Kotomine Shiro didn't care about what Assassin had just done, but continued to question Matou Zouken.
"Eternal life, immortality!"
Kotomine Shiro held his hand with a smile that made people feel extremely comfortable.
"Welcome to join the Red Camp, Master Matou."
So Kotomine Shiro brought him to his own base and asked to borrow Jack the Ripper from him.
"Since we are already allies, I have no opinion on your decision."
Matou Zouken simply replied to Kotomine Shiro with this one sentence, then found a place to sit in the [Sky Garden] they had just completed, sat down, and said nothing.
Just like an old man who was tired of walking in the park, he sat on the stone railing, silently as if meditating.
Although Kotomine Shiro was puzzled by the fact that Matou Zouken simply handed Jack the Ripper over to him, he thought that it shouldn't be a big problem since he had his own Assassin guarding him.
At worst, we can just let Zouken Matou be treated the same as the Red Master and poison him directly.
I just hope that Zouken Matou doesn't gossip about his actions and interfere with Jack the Ripper and Shiro Kotomine's decision-making.
Otherwise, the Red Team Assassin will not show mercy to Matou Zouken.
Unbeknownst to them, a man wrapped in a black windbreaker and wearing a skull mask appeared in the basement of the sky courtyard at some point, searching for the room where the other masters of the red team were imprisoned.
Chapter 167: One of the world's top servants - Karna
"This is my gun, my belief!!"
Achilles shouted at Chiron, and suddenly thrust the gun in his hand into the ground. A strange light was released from the tip of the gun, and in an instant, the world seemed to be paused.
Even the leaves falling from the trees were suspended in mid-air.
The colors of the surrounding world also became extremely strange, as if the space had also changed.
Achilles and Chiron just stared at each other face to face.
In fact, for Rider, the Noble Phantasm released by Achilles should be the raging undead chariot.
But Achilles has more than just one Noble Phantasm, and he also thought out the best Noble Phantasm at the moment in a short period of time.
Now is not a good time to release the mount. In such a close-range battle, if I release the mount, my body would probably be shot into a hornet's nest by the teacher just as I step on the mount.
However, [Small World Surrounding the Sky] is a defensive weapon and there is no need to release it. After thinking about it, Achilles only has the tip of the Spear of the Star Galloping Across the Sky that can be released at the fastest speed.
This spear was given by Chiron to Achilles' parents when they got married. It is made of the same material as Chiron's bow and arrow.
It can create a field for the purpose of single-handedly challenging heroes, a great magecraft that is comparable to the inherent barriers.
And when Achilles throws this spear with all his strength, a single strike can wipe a servant of Chiron's level from reality.
However, the two sides were fighting each other at close range at the moment, and Achilles would not do something that would make him a living sandbag.
However, since things have come to this, Achilles naturally wouldn't mind fighting off a duel with his teacher today.
You should know that this gun has another very popular name, which is the single-player gun.
In terms of the magic principle, it is almost identical to Nero's "Golden Theater of Ecstasy".
This gun completely blocks time and the surrounding environment, forming an arena that will not be resolved until one of the parties is defeated.
"Interesting, does this change the world? It's really surprising, Achilles!"
Chiron looked at the stagnant world around him with a look of slight surprise. He looked at Achilles who was walking towards him step by step with his fists clenched, and admired him from the bottom of his heart.
At the same time, there was no time for such communication on the battlefield in Karna.
"Sun, submit to death—"
Karna was seen floating in the air very calmly, the armor on his body began to gradually dissolve, and a spear of destruction made of lightning appeared in his hand.
This is a powerful "anti-god" gun that appeared in exchange for golden armor and has huge defensive power in exchange for equipment.
Compared to the roar of one's full strength, the calm voice saying the name of the Noble Phantasm that is about to be released is more oppressive.
Whether it was the Servants or the Masters present, they all felt as if their hearts stopped the moment Karna raised the gun.
In an instant, the powerful treasure turned the hearts of the androids and ordinary people in the abandoned warehouse into deflated balloons and drowned in the swarm of insects. Countless insects died here because their magic power was drained dry.
This was Karna's full force release, and he also intended to punish the thief Master who forcibly transferred the contract.
Karna could sense that his master was not someone he could obey.
"In the name of the Command Seal, release the Noble Phantasm, Saber!"
"In the name of the Command Seal, release the Noble Phantasm, Saber!"
"In the name of the Command Seal, release the Noble Phantasm, Saber!"
The slightly bloated fat man with golden hair looked at the shot that seemed to destroy the world, his heart was dead, he stretched out the Command Seal on the back of his hand and gave orders to Siegfried very quickly.
Although the battlefield where his servants were fighting was a long way away, he still felt that his life would probably turn to dust under such a blow.
A blue beam of light burst out from the sword in Siegfried's hand, and its powerful force even caused the space to distort slightly.
But even with the blessing of the Three-Stroke Command Spell, which could even cause the light beam to slightly distort space, it was no match for the divine spear floating above Karna's head.
Siegfried knew clearly that the moment it touched the strong beam of light, it would be crushed into pieces, and he would be reduced to ashes without any resistance.
He had fought with him before, but he never imagined that the gap between him and Karna would be so huge.
The armor on his body that was bathed in dragon blood was like a piece of paper in front of him. He had no chance of resisting at all.
"what!!!!!!"
Faced with such a powerful divine spear, Berserker did not retreat at all. Instead, she roared at Karna in the sky. A powerful electric current burst out from her body and stimulated the back of her master's hand.
"Is this what you have in mind? Berserker!"
Colles did not hesitate at all. The moment he received the message from Berserker, the three strokes of the Command Spell disappeared from the back of his hand.
Vlad III tilted his head slightly and looked at Danic, who was sitting on his horse in the distance and paying attention to the situation with a very serious look.
He saw not only his shock at Karna's strength, but also his anger and powerlessness at his inability to win the Holy Grail War.
If the three of them were killed by their Noble Phantasm, I'm afraid this Holy Grail War would have ended.
The remaining servants simply do not have the strength to face Karna. If this were a regular Holy Grail War, with Karna's strength, he would probably be able to end the war overnight.
This is truly an extremely powerful hero.
Vlad III expressed endless admiration and regret for Karna.
As a king who once dominated Romania, his popularity in Romania is comparable to that of Hercules of Greece and King Arthur of England.
If he was not in this land and did not have such a high profile, he might not even be able to fight with Karna.
Vlad III looked around himself, and his eyes softened. Although he would deal cruelly with those he regarded as enemies, he was undoubtedly a leader with noble character in his heart.
Countless debris and corpses were scattered throughout the battlefield. These androids, these puppets, and the servants who marched forward bravely were guarding the positions of the Yugdomrenia clan and their own capital, just like he was defending his own country in a war.
Chapter 168: Capital Punishment for Invaders - Vlad III (Part 1)
But what exactly was he protecting?
As the king of Romania, as the leader of the black camp, and as Danic's servant.
What did he do in this Holy Grail War?
The position was destroyed in an instant, the soldiers he led were almost all wiped out by the enemy, and he was unable to defeat the enemy's strongest servant.
He could only watch helplessly as his territory was invaded by the Red Army and his subordinates and servants were all killed in this attack, while he had no power to resist at all.
Vlad III was extremely angry because he had no ability to stop the Red Army's invasion.
This was not only a humiliating defeat, but also a situation where one's own country was trampled under their feet.
The arrogant attitude and the casual way of aggression made Vlad III angry and feel guilty.
If being able to defend his country and resist invaders means nothing more than turning into a vampire and losing his reputation, can't he accept such a thing?
In order to defend one's country and make one's country strong, even one's own relatives can be treated as pests and driven away.
This is his unconditional love for his country. This country is everything to him, and he is willing to devote everything he has to Romania.
No matter how bloody the means were, no matter how many lives were lost, he would never care.
How can I be considered the King of Romania if I can't even fulfill the wishes of my own people!
With such determination, Vlad III closed his eyes as if he had figured something out.
"My king——"
Danic, who was far away, felt it. He felt the determination of Vlad III coming from the Command Spell.
He naturally understood which Noble Phantasm to use and how determined Vlad III had to be.
That was a Noble Phantasm that he would rather die than use. It was something he hated the most and he would curse its author viciously even in death.
How could Danic not feel what was in Vlad III's heart?
He had delved into dreams about Vlad's past, so he naturally knew what this action meant.
However, there was no time for Danic to hesitate, let alone time for him to ask Vlad III. He could only give his servant the greatest trust, just like Koles.
"In the name of the Command Spell, Lancer, stay sane."
"In the name of the Command Spell, Lancer, stay sane."
"In the name of the final Command Seal, Lancer, release the Noble Phantasm!!!!"
As Danik finished his last sentence, thick black mist began to emerge from Vlad III's body, and an extremely uncomfortable and disgusting aura burst out from Vlad III's body.
Countless bats appeared out of nowhere and surrounded Vlad III. The terrifying aura made Siegfried beside him feel his heart stop.
The sense of danger that kept arising in his mind reminded him that Vlad III could kill him very easily at this moment.
That is a monster that can disrupt the order of the world, and the ancestor of all vampires in books - Count Dracula.
With the support of the [Ghost General], Vlad III had already reached the same level of strength as Arthur.
The [Inheritance of Blood] turned Vlad III into the legendary vampire Dracula, who is well-known to everyone in the legend.
Even without the blessing of [Ghost General], the vampire Vlad III is already stronger than himself in the [Ghost General] state, not to mention Vlad III who is in the superposition of the two states and still has reason.
这可不仅仅只是1+1=3的实力发挥，甚至可能已经达到了1+1＞3的实力。
At this moment, his strength was truly able to completely suppress Karna, and even kill him, instead of being like before, although it seemed that the injuries caused to Karna were very serious.
