At dawn, a ray of golden morning light broke the night.
The sky turned white, and on the edge of the mountains, the fiery red sun gradually revealed half of his bald head, venting his passion.
Beside the clearing with withered weeds on the mountainside, Ren, Scathach, Guda and others sat in a group. In the center was a pile of lit firewood, with a large pot on top.
Gugu~
The flames licked the bottom of the pot, the thick soup was boiling, and what was simmering in the pot was fresh flying dragon meat + high-end hot pot ingredients.
The high-temperature bubbles continue to burst, the steam overflows, and the dragon meat and hot pot ingredients are quickly mixed together, and an alluring and spicy smell wafts out.
"Gulu~"
It was so fragrant that Ritsuka Fujimaru swallowed subconsciously.
The performance of the others was not much better, almost all of them had bright eyes.
After trekking through mountains and rivers last night, the cold wind blew all night, and this spicy hot pot early in the morning aroused the roundworms in everyone's stomach.
"Is it almost done?" Tato Tatou rubbed his hands, salivated over the dragon meat in the pot, and looked at Ren eagerly.
"Well, it's started!"
Ren grinned, the space door opened, and a brand new set of tableware slowly fell from the blue vortex to everyone.
BBA picked up the iron spoon and served a hot pot to the eagerly awaited crowd.
A hearty breakfast begins.
"Great, this is called hot pot, right? It's so delicious."
"I didn't expect Ren's cooking skills to be so good, and his handling of ingredients is superb."
"The Queen will be blessed from now on,"
Everyone began to feast and chat while eating, and the atmosphere was very lively.
Ren enjoyed it even more, all he had to do was open his mouth.
Scathach sat next to him and served him personally. She held the bowl and carefully blew it to cool down each time before passing a piece of dragon meat to his mouth, as if she were a virtuous wife.
After the two confirmed their relationship, they did not avoid suspicion.
The Queen completely let go of her previous reserve and took good care of him as her girlfriend.
It is at this time that Ren will deeply realize how happy it is for a man to have a good wife at home.
"What's wrong?"
After picking up a piece of hot pot meat and putting it to his mouth, BBA found that her boyfriend was in a daze.
Turning off the EX Clairvoyance and restoring the focus of the pupils, Ren's face became very strange after he had been observing the situation since he discovered the anomaly in the Holy City early last night.
"Remember what I said last night, a golden tower-like shell has formed outside the Holy City, and some buildings inside are deforming."
Scathach put down his chopsticks and frowned: "Didn't it pause? Has the alienation started again?"
Everyone who was eating hot pot also stopped and looked at the soldier leader intently.
Ren's clairvoyance can observe the Holy Capital. This is not a secret, and he has not concealed it. Everyone knows about the strange behavior in the Holy Capital last night, and even discussed it for a long time.
Unfortunately, there are serious disturbances inside the Holy City. Clairvoyants cannot see the specific situation inside and can only see external anomalies.
"What happened?" Sigurd pushed up his gleaming glasses, obviously paying attention to the abnormality over there.
Your side already has the advantage, but you must not be careless and guard against the opponent's crazy counterattack.
Ren's face twitched a few times, and he showed a dumbfounded expression to everyone:
"Morgan...she failed to show off and was fucked. After realizing that she had no use value, the Lion King forcibly controlled her.
Then Morgan looked for an opportunity to send out a signal for help, and just now, it was captured by me with the ‘Eye of Deception’.”
"ah??"
"what happened?"
"Is it an internal fight? Did the Lion King attack her?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka, the school girl, Sanzo-san and others all had expressions of astonishment on their faces, and they started talking about it.
Last night, a golden shell suddenly appeared in the Holy Capital. It was very unusual without any warning. After a heated discussion, everyone agreed that it was the witch of Britain who was causing trouble!
Miss Sanzang even imagined many conspiracy theories.
She suspected that Morgan, the notorious, cunning and cruel witch, was the real mastermind behind the scenes, and that she was using the Lion King to achieve some ulterior secret.
As a result, this morning everyone was eating hot pot and singing songs, and you told me that the enemy's military advisor was almost defeated... What the hell is this?
"The witch asked for help, could it be a conspiracy?" Touta looked suspicious.
"It's a bit strange." Fujimaru Ritsuka frowned, having a bad feeling.
Sanzang insisted that the witch was the mastermind behind this, and did not believe that she had already thrown herself into the street: "Yes, this woman Morgan is sinister and cunning, I can't believe it."
Most people think the news that The Lion King and Morgan fell out is unbelievable.
The witch is misleading them and brewing a conspiracy. The best way is to ignore her, so as not to fall into the trap.
Almost no one believes that Morgan is really fast...
To be honest, when Ren used his "Eye of Deception" to capture this key information, he was a little confused.
but……
He raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, took a deep breath and said:
"I think Morgan is not lying. She is being controlled. Not to mention she has become a pawn involuntarily. At least she has lost control of the situation now and cannot resist the Lion King."
"..."
Everyone was silent for a moment, still doubtful.
The main reason is that Morgan was infamous in history, known for his cruelty, cunning, and dissolute style, while the King of Knights was famous throughout the ages and was known for his virtuous and upright character.
Everyone would rather believe that she was acting out a trick than that it was the Lion King who "backstabbed" the witch first by killing the donkey.
"Do you have any basis for thinking that Morgan didn't lie?" Sigurd asked calmly.
Looking at everyone's confused and disbelieving looks, Ren's face became very solemn:
"Because, the Lion King has become the main god.
The anomalies in the Holy Capital show that this may be true... All conspiracies and tricks are a joke in the face of absolute strength."
Morgan's distress signal revealed several key information that could influence the direction of the war. This was already a betrayal...
Lord God?
After everyone heard this word, there was silence. Some people didn't quite understand what the Lord God was, while others felt trembling and fearful.
"Lord God?! This, this... what happened now! Damn it! How could this happen, how could this happen..."
Next to Guda, the projection of Dr. Roman appeared.
His face was livid, he had lost his usual composure, and he kept grabbing his orange hair with his hands, looking very out of character.
Fujimaru Ritsuka asked worriedly:
"Doctor, what's wrong with you? What does the Lord God... represent?"
Dr. Roman bit his lip and remained silent. He wanted to explain what Lord God meant, but he was afraid of damaging everyone's morale.
‘Has it reached the point where you even have to consider explaining it?’
The doctor's appearance made Fujimaru Ritsuka feel chilled and suddenly felt that something was not good.
"Let me explain."
The dragon-slaying hero Sigurd suddenly spoke, his paralyzed face full of fear.
Clang!
He reached out and pulled out the magic sword Gram from his body. This dragon-slaying sword was filled with a powerful magical aura. The blade was extremely sharp, the cold light flashed, and it cut iron like mud.
Looking at everyone, Sigurd raised the magic sword and said in a deep voice:
"The predecessor of this sword is my father's 'Sword in the Tree'. The sword in the tree was shattered by a blow from Odin's eternal spear 'Gungnir'.
It wasn't the Noble Phantasm firepower duel that won him, but he shattered an A-level holy sword with one blow.
The weapon was shattered, and the consequences are self-evident. As you can see, for a hero like me, a great god can kill me with at most two moves."
"..."
Mashu, Touta Touta and others lost their voices for a moment, even Ren and Scathach looked very ugly, and the atmosphere became particularly depressing.
Sigurd is already a top-level servant, and he can't withstand even two of Odin's attacks. If he were a first-rate servant, a second-rate servant would only die faster, and this doesn't even take into account Odin's power.
Red A once said that Big Dog’s B-level anti-army spear is more powerful than Odin’s Gungnir.
But that was just the veteran actor talking about it, maybe it was a sarcastic remark.
Even if the golden Ea has more firepower than the curry stick and the indestructible lake light, I dare not say that it can even break the A-level Noble Phantasm itself with one blow.
Sigurd's glasses shimmered, he put down his sword, and looked at Renn calmly:
"The Lion King may not be as good as Odin.
However, according to the previous plan, you and Sun King Ozymandias will deal with the Lion King. With all due respect, if you don’t have a trump card, you will definitely die.”
Everyone: "..."
These words are very direct, even a bit harsh.
But this is not provocation or alarmism. The dragon-slaying hero has already seen the strength of the Lord of War, but he still made it clear that the Sun King and the Lord of War together are no match for the Lion King, if the latter really becomes the main god.
Dr. Roman also sighed and added:
"Ren and the Sun King are both top powerhouses, but they are not crowned champions after all. If the intelligence is correct, they alone can no longer defeat the Lion King.
Even adding the Knight King is very reluctant. The Lion King has the blessing of the entire Holy City of Camelot. He can advance, attack, retreat, and defend without fear of being besieged. In a war of attrition, he will definitely lose. A normal Servant cannot consume the Lord God.
of."
"..."
What can everyone say, they just feel a lot of pressure.
Miss Sanzang covered her forehead: "Buddha, the main god actually appeared at this unique point, and the main god was blessed by the venue.
We are just regular Servants, and when we go to kill gods, we are still the main gods. This is too embarrassing."
She is well-informed and knows that what Sigurd and Doctor Roman said is unnecessary.
"What should we do?"
Tatou Tatou scratched his head. He didn't understand the Lord God, but he also knew that that kind of existence was completely beyond the scope of regular heroic spirits.
"We can only fight defensive battles, but we can't fight with firepower, but defensive counterattacks are not a problem yet.
Fortunately, the Sun King's "Grand Composite Temple of Glory" and Renn's "Starry Night Seven Heavens" have the highest level of defense against evil."
Dr. Roman came to a conclusion, but his expression was still heavy.
Jingjing Hassan frowned: "If you have a way, why do you still have this expression?"
"Because we are the attacker."
Sigurd's expression was indifferent, and a dense stream of data appeared on his glasses, as if he was analyzing, "If we rely on the defensive mode to advance little by little, many people will die."
Since it is a siege, it is naturally impossible for everyone to hide behind the great temple or shield.
Don't think that dead people are nothing.
Servants will return to the Throne of Heroes, but once ordinary soldiers die, they will die even if this singularity is repaired.
For example, if Renn had not rescued Saria, the childhood sweetheart of Cursed Arms, during the Holy Drawing Ceremony, Rushed would still have lost his mother and become an orphan after the singularity was repaired.
According to Sigurd's data analysis, if no one can directly contain the Lion King and let her exert her full strength, even if the coalition wins in the end, only a few people will survive.
"Probably tens of thousands of people will die."
Sigurd said calmly, but his voice was trembling.
It's tens of thousands of people, not just a few people.
Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but swallow, and Mashu also had sweaty palms.
Maybe these sacrifices will be nothing in the Lostbelt in the future, but at least now Chaldea has never shouldered so many lives.
No one can contain the Lion King head-on, so they have to use human lives to advance the battle line bit by bit.
This topic is too heavy,
After that, everyone couldn't even eat the hot pot and had no appetite at all.
"Let's go, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Go and ask for the first generation of the mountain."
Renn, who had been silent before, smiled calmly, with no fear in his eyes, "What happened to the Lord God? Who are you trying to scare?"
His smile that looked down on life and death and would do anything if he refused made everyone feel refreshed.
"Well, let's go!"
Surprisingly, it was Fujimaru Ritsuka who was the first to react and agree.
The young man stood up with a very calm expression. Even though he heard that tens of thousands of people might be sacrificed in the decisive battle, he forced himself to calm down.
'This awareness, this will...'
This actually made Sigurd, Scathach, and Tawarato take a first look.
It is not difficult to understand the fearless attitude of the soldier leader. The murderous intention and evil spirit in him are so strong that some people believe that he is the reincarnation of the God of Death.
Everyone doesn't know his origins and experiences, but it doesn't need to be emphasized that he is a ruthless person.
However, it is not easy for Fujimaru Ritsuka, a human master, to have the consciousness to save humanity at all costs.
Not everyone can bear the lives of tens of thousands of people and still remain calm.
Following the rising red sun in the early morning, everyone continued to set off along a mountain path covered with weeds and shrubs in a very quiet environment, heading to the Azrael Temple.
Only this time, the atmosphere was not as relaxed as before.
The pressure brought about by the Lion King's promotion to the Lord God is always shrouded in everyone's hearts.
Traveling through mountains and rivers, time passes quickly.
It was noon before I knew it, and the harsh sunlight above my head was scorching the desolate land. The closer I got to the temple, the more desolate the scene became.
Everyone was not in the mood to eat lunch, so they only took out a few pieces of bread and mineral water to cope with the problem.
Scathach took a bite of the butter bread, held her boyfriend's hand tightly, and said softly: "Are you stressed?"
"Kind of."
After closing the "Eye of Deception", the silver light in Ren's pupils faded, and he slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.
He must have felt a lot of pressure. The power of the Lord God is no joke.
Take the South American main god at the seventh singularity as an example. Her description is very detailed. Quetzalcoatl
Quetzalcoatl came to Uruk, and the whole of Uruk was unable to resist.
Remember, it's the whole of Uruk.
At that time, there were C Flash, Servant Merlin, Goddess Ishtar, Ushiwakamaru, Leonidas and other powerful people in Uruk.
However, together they cannot stop Quetzalcoatl.
Quetzalcoatl went on a "killing spree" in Uruk, breaking into the city with great momentum, spinning Ishtar with one hand... It was Guda's beauty trick that made her stop.
Moreover, the ordinary "Lock of Heaven" is almost useless against the Lord God.
Jin Gu used the Heavenly Lock to lock her wrist, but she pulled her back with her backhand...
After Quetzalcoatl's divinity was reduced by half, her power dropped to a level that those extraordinary servants could barely parry, and no one in front could stop her.
However, that Quetzalcoatl is also a branch spirit, but its power is closer to the main body...
If Renne cannot reach the level of a true champion and chooses to challenge the Lion King head-on without engaging in a defensive battle, he is looking for death.
In a head-on duel, there is no 10% chance of winning. Being able to hold the opponent back is considered astonishing.
Based on the "intelligence" passed on by Morgan, and by comparison, Renn feels that the Lion King's current power is about the same as that of Dark Prince Milo (the demon boss of the main world).
"Ren, do you just believe what Morgan says? Maybe she is lying to you and creating pressure for you." Scathach's eyes were very gentle, and he stretched out his little hand to tidy up his messy hair that was blown by the wind.
"Anyway, I don't really believe what the witch said."
"Don't take chances and stay close to ten. Morgan may not be at the end of her rope, but most of her plans are probably ruined because of the Lion King's backstab."
Ren held her catkins, smiled slightly, and added.
"Don't think too highly of that woman. She says she's a witch, but she's actually a bit silly."
"Silly Baitian?" Scathach was very surprised. It was the first time he heard someone commenting on Morgan like this. "Are you sure you're right?"
"Yes."
Ren shook his head, "Although that woman looks scheming, she is actually very unreliable. She is good at laying out chess pieces, but she doesn't know how to control the situation. She just messes around."
This is no joke.
Morgan used her children to stir up troubles, but who among Gawain, Aguen, and Xiao Mo finally listened to her command?
In the end, Xiao Mo was able to make great achievements, but his mentality was shattered by King Da Mao's words, "You don't have the ability to be king." Due to some strange combination of circumstances, the credit really cannot be attributed to Morgan.
"She is a woman with a lot of tricks, but she can hardly trick anyone else except herself." Renn made a judgment for Morgan.
He dared to guarantee that the witch had messed up everything, so it was certain that the Lion King would be promoted to the Lord God.
Scathach didn't want to talk more about Morgan and comforted him: "Don't be too stressed. There's also the Assassin with the title."
"Yes, I completely believe that even if the Lion King is the main god, he can stop her."
Ren looked at the mountain temple not far away and smiled slightly.
