Reproduces the scenery of the 'Tower' where Merlin is still confined to this day around the user.
The ground is covered with flowers, and warm sunlight can shine on the ground regardless of any darkness or hell.
Even if the space he is allowed is only a mere ten-square-meter square cell,
Even if the scenery he is given is only the sky divided in the distant sky above,
That place will forever exist as an ideal paradise.
The place where the Flower Magician Merlin is located is not hell, but a land full of hope.
Although as a magician he may not have much ability in magic, Merlin's overall quality is still very good, especially his Noble Phantasm and illusion, which, when combined with Wang Xiaoming, can be said to be very useful.
Let this world's Merlin cooperate with the Old Sword? This wave, ah, this wave is the re-establishment of the glory of Great Britain!
When Artoria sees Wang Xiaoming and Merlin, her expression will definitely be great.
"In short, Merlin, welcome to our team, I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation in the next few days!"
"Pleasant cooperation, Master."
Wang Xiaoming stretched out his right hand, and Merlin also stretched out his right hand. The two people with similar voices shook hands. In this Holy Grail War, the most evil combination was born.
386. Sakura, you don't want your Brother Xiaoming to lose, do you?
The incident of Gymnastics Prince going to the Tohsaka residence to assassinate Tohsaka Tokiomi was basically broadcast live in the eyes of all the Holy Grail War participants in Fuyuki City.
Assassin's Hassan was directly killed by Archer's Gilgamesh with a few Noble Phantasms, the ashes were scattered, and nothing was left.
The Holy Grail War was also officially announced to begin because of this anticlimactic battle.
Wang Xiaoming did not pay attention to the story between Gymnastics Prince and Gilgamesh. To be honest, this meaningless acting behavior is really a waste of time. Tohsaka Tokiomi planned so much, but in the end, Gilgamesh's active self-explosion directly destroyed it, and he even offended Gilgamesh, and then was killed by Gilgamesh. How boring.
After Wang Xiaoming summoned Merlin, he directly took him back to his base, the small hotel that he had armed with technological means.
When Merlin followed Wang Xiaoming to the small hotel, he was surprised. The Arthur King of the parallel world, he thought it would be a great base, but is this it?
Not only that, but also with a little girl?
After taking Merlin back to the base, Wang Xiaoming also gave Merlin an order, which was to teach Sakura magic. If possible, directly give Sakura a wave of Hero Creation EX and cultivate Sakura.
Good fellow, Merlin was dumbfounded. Didn't you summon me to fight in the Holy Grail War with you? I was ready to go out and play with other Heroic Spirits, but you asked me to train a little girl?
Then he took a look at Sakura and was dumbfounded again. He felt the power of the dragon from this little girl! Just like when he first saw Artoria, this little girl also has the heart of a dragon, and her blood contains the dragon factor.
This is in modern times when the Great Source Magic has declined, and all fantasy species have disappeared. This little girl actually has the heart of a dragon!
Although I don't know what's going on, it did arouse Merlin's interest, and he became interested in cultivating Sakura.
Although Merlin is a scumbag, one thing is certain, that is, he is really good at teaching people. That Hero Creation EX is direct proof of this.
Wang Xiaoming also doesn't expect to be able to trick a holy sword from Merlin's hands. The Saber King's holy sword is now getting higher and higher in level, and the settings are getting more and more outrageous. The homonymous Unfading Light of the Lake is almost abused into渣, the holy sword is difficult to get, but it should be no problem to make Sakura an excellent magician.
Now Sakura's magic attribute is still Void, and it has not been transformed into Water by the old worm. The Void attribute has great potential, coupled with the dragon's heart and the dragon factor providing the passive ability to recover magic power as long as you breathe, Merlin will teach her again, and it is almost destined that Sakura will become a super-powerful space magician.
However, when Wang Xiaoming asked Merlin to be Sakura's teacher, Sakura disagreed.
She doesn't know what Merlin's identity is, she just simply thinks that if someone is going to be her teacher, it's best to be Wang Xiaoming.
Merlin, who rarely wanted to be a teacher, was rejected, which made Merlin feel different, and then not only did he not give up, but he became interested and began to actively try to make Sakura willing to let him be her teacher.
It only took less than ten minutes for Merlin to make Sakura agree to let him be her teacher, because Sakura's weakness is very simple.
"Sakura, you don't want your Brother Xiaoming to lose this war because you can't help him, do you?"
Merlin simply told Sakura about Wang Xiaoming's participation in the Holy Grail War, and then said that she was Wang Xiaoming's burden and would cause Wang Xiaoming to lose this war. Only by following him, Merlin, to learn a wave, can she help Wang Xiaoming and help Wang Xiaoming win this Holy Grail War.
Then Sakura, who was concerned about Wang Xiaoming, immediately agreed to Merlin and accepted Merlin's teaching.
The whole conversation process was conducted in front of Wang Xiaoming, and Wang Xiaoming's eyebrows jumped straight. Although Wang Xiaoming knew that Merlin was not a Japanese netizen, the words he said were really funny. He really is Merlin the Conscience.
Wang Xiaoming, who was complaining about Merlin in his heart, completely forgot how he had threatened Lesty in the world of Spirit Master.
After letting Sakura obediently follow Merlin to study, Wang Xiaoming began to concentrate on preparing for the Holy Grail War. After all, the Holy Grail is his ultimate goal in coming to this world.
Assassin's suicide behavior last night was just a small fight, tonight is the real hot spot.
After it got dark, Wang Xiaoming asked Merlin to take Sakura at home, and he left the base alone and went to Fuyuki Bridge.
Wang Xiaoming doesn't know where Lancer challenged the location on the first night, but he knows that the place is very close to Fuyuki Bridge, in a container warehouse area of a wharf below Fuyuki Bridge. As long as he gets to Fuyuki Bridge, he can easily find that warehouse street.
Fortunately, Wang Xiaoming had just arrived at Fuyuki Bridge when he felt the magic power fluctuations coming from not far below. That was Lancer's provocation, inviting other Servants to come and fight.
Wang Xiaoming stood in place and felt it. He used his dragon vision to scan the surroundings and found that in addition to Lancer, who was standing outside and making provocations foolishly, there were also several other Servants.
Assassin lying on the container, Rider sitting on Fuyuki Bridge, Berserker hiding in the warehouse, Saber who is rushing from the distant seaside, and Archer who is also rushing over.
On the true first night of the Holy Grail War, except for his own Caster, all the other Servants can be said to have come.
Now that almost everyone has come, Wang Xiaoming naturally has to show up. In the last Holy Grail War, Wang Xiaoming had been hiding in the dark because there was a guy named Jeanne who would be in the way, but in this Holy Grail War, there is no Jeanne.
Wang Xiaoming wants to perform well!
First of all, let's have a grand entrance!
Wang Xiaoming summoned somersault cloud, and then let somersault cloud carry him floating directly above the position where Lancer was located. Because of the low sense of existence, no one found Wang Xiaoming, and somersault cloud was just a small cloud. What's there to be wary of?
So, Wang Xiaoming stood on somersault cloud and kept waiting, waiting for Saber to come to Lancer's presence before jumping directly down.
"Have you finally arrived!"
Lancer, who was emitting magical power from the ground, happily revealed himself upon seeing Saber appear.
"I've been swaggering around this city all day, but no one was willing to show their face! You're the only strong one who accepted my invitation!"
"That clear fighting spirit... it seems you are..."
Boom—
Before Lancer could finish speaking, the ground between him and Saber suddenly exploded.
"Nani!"
Both Lancer and Saber were startled by the sudden explosion.
"Sorry, I took a little time getting here."
Wang Xiaoming's voice came from the dust of the explosion. Only then did Saber and Lancer sense Wang Xiaoming's presence. After the dust settled, they saw Wang Xiaoming's appearance.
Blue inner clothing, silver-white armor, golden hair fluttering in the sea breeze, and a gorgeous golden sword in his hand.
Lancer looked at Wang Xiaoming in surprise. The aura emanating from Wang Xiaoming made him understand that this was no ordinary person. Since he wasn't an ordinary person, then he must be a Servant. And he was holding a sword, which meant...
"Are you... Saber?"
The real Saber was behind Wang Xiaoming. She was surprised that Wang Xiaoming's armor was very similar in style to hers, but she immediately retorted the moment Lancer spoke.
"I am Saber!"
"You are Saber?"
Lancer looked at Saber doubtfully. Indeed, the clear fighting spirit emanating from Artoria was what he was going to say earlier. But Artoria was a girl, while this man in front of him, holding a sword, looked more like a knight, more like a Saber.
"Then, are you also a Servant who came in response to my invitation?"
"That's right."
Wang Xiaoming nodded slightly. He raised his right hand, pointing Est towards Lancer.
"I am the Caster in this Holy Grail War, my true name is Arthur Pendragon. I have come to accept your challenge, Lancer!"
Lancer and Saber were stunned at the same time when Wang Xiaoming finished speaking.
"Ha! ! ? ?"
387. Lancer, you're so weak~~
Wearing knight armor, looking like a knight, and holding a gorgeous long sword, and then saying he's a Caster.
Wang Xiaoming's actions successfully shocked Lancer.
Is your family's Caster fighting with a knight's sword? And you're actually Arthur King!? That famous Golden King? This appearance, this aura, and that gorgeous golden sword, it really looks like Arthur King, but... why is he a Caster? Shouldn't you be Saber? Why did a little girl steal the Saber class from you!?
Lancer widened his eyes, using his gaze to question, but Wang Xiaoming had no intention of answering him.
Equally shocked was Artoria behind Wang Xiaoming. As the Saber in this Holy Grail War, her identity is Arthur King, but this man in front of her actually said that he is Arthur King?
No, the names are different. The other party's name is Arthur Pendragon, which is more in line with the name of the legendary Arthur King.
But why?
Under Lancer's questioning gaze, Wang Xiaoming spoke again.
"What's wrong, Lancer? Wasn't it you who issued the challenge? That magical power spread everywhere, as bright as a lighthouse in the night, attracting us to come. Now that I'm here, are you not planning to accept the challenge?"
"No, of course not. Although I don't know why the legendary Arthur King would be in the Caster class, since Arthur King has taken the initiative to accept the challenge, as a knight, how can I not accept it!"
Lancer twirled the twin spears in his hand, choosing to accept the battle. As for Artoria and Irisviel behind Wang Xiaoming, he had ignored them. What woman is more important than a battle with the legendary Arthur King!
"Lancer, I..."
"Saber, calm down."
Artoria wanted to say something, but Irisviel behind her persuaded her to stop. She also knew Artoria's identity, the famous King of Knights in the legend, but she didn't expect that the King of Knights was a girl. And now, a male version of the King of Knights appeared, whether it was the style, the clothing, or even the weapon, it all looked very suitable for the King of Knights.
For a moment, Irisviel really felt that Wang Xiaoming was the real Arthur King, and Artoria was a little girl with a knight's dream. But Artoria's Servant stats clearly stated her identity as the King, so Irisviel still chose to believe Artoria.
So in the current situation, Irisviel felt that she should let Saber calm down first and watch the battle of this male version of Arthur King.
"I understand, Irisviel."
Saber also understood Irisviel's meaning. Although she was anxious to ask Wang Xiaoming about the identity of Arthur King, she stood in front of Irisviel, making a gesture to protect Irisviel, and prepared to watch the battle between Wang Xiaoming and Lancer.
On the battlefield, Lancer had already taken his stance. He stared at Wang Xiaoming intently, slowly taking deep breaths. In front of him was Arthur King. Lancer's real name was Diarmuid, the great knight of twin spears and twin swords in Northern Irish legends. In terms of era, he was earlier than the Arthur King legend, but in terms of popularity, he was far less famous than Arthur King, especially since Arthur King also had the title of King of Knights, which knights yearned for.
After taking a few deep breaths, Lancer stabilized his excited heart and stared at Wang Xiaoming calmly.
"Sorry, Arthur King, because of Master's orders, I cannot reveal my name, but I will fight you with all my strength as a knight!"
"Are you sure it's all your strength?"
Wang Xiaoming didn't make any movements, just looked at him with a smile.
Lancer was stunned at first, then nodded seriously.
"Of course!"
"That's the best."
Wang Xiaoming nodded with a smile, his right hand holding the sword slightly back, only using his left hand to face Lancer.
"Arthur King, what do you mean by this? You don't even point your sword at me, are you looking down on me! ?"
Lancer was very unhappy with Wang Xiaoming's actions.
"No, I'm not looking down on you, I just want to see if you have really used all your strength. After all, I don't even know your identity. If you really attack with all your strength, then I will naturally point my sword at you."
Wang Xiaoming said contemptuous words with a calm face.
"After all, my sword does not point at the unknown!"
"Damn it!"
Lancer was angered by Wang Xiaoming. He wanted to reveal his real name, so that Wang Xiaoming would know that he was also a great knight, not some unknown person, but his Master simply didn't give him this opportunity.
"My lord, can't you even allow this!"
As if questioning, Lancer suddenly looked up and shouted towards the sky, but a rejecting answer came from the sky.
"Shut up, Lancer, if you want to fight, then defeat the opponent quickly!"
Lancer closed his eyes and clenched his teeth to express his anger, but he was a Servant and could not resist Master's orders.
