The Dark Way of the Egoist: A Serial

Chapter 143 Countdown

"Now we are divided into three groups," Dak thought about the current situation.

Amakusa Shiro and Emiya Kiritsugu united because of their common ideals.

Kenneth has the help of Chaldea.

Kotomine Kirei's side and the Hero King are at odds with each other. On the surface, they appear to be the strongest in combat, but they are bound to fail.

Gilgamesh's evil taste will certainly harm himself.

What do you think we'd do if Kotomine Kirei didn't take action?
Isn’t there Dak who gives him a push?

If I say you will have a bloody disaster, then you will. At worst, I will kill you myself when the time comes.

"When Gilgamesh and Amakusa fight, no matter how you look at it, Kayneth will win in the end.

Should I wait until the battle is over before taking action, or should I intervene now? "Gilgamesh's strength, as long as he wants to fight seriously, is unreasonably strong. Except for a few who are hanging on the wall, other heroes are not worthy of being his enemy.

But this Chuunibyou has claimed himself as the omniscient and omnipotent star, and has lost his vision of the future. In addition, Kotomine Kirei will "definitely" betray Gilgamesh at the peak of his powers, so he will definitely be the loser.

The focus of the project that Dak is currently working on is actually to expand the scale of Saya. However, this is a very slow issue that requires accumulation. The plan has already begun, and it takes time to accumulate.

It will take a long time to spread throughout the world.

The world is too big.

And the movement should be quiet so as not to attract attention.

Although it looks very similar to Tiamat's black mud polluting the world, Dak does not have the strength of Tiamat to dominate the world.

"It's decided. Let's go help Kotomine Kirei later! Chaos Evil Guda!" He clapped his hands, talking to himself.

In fact, he just wanted to cause trouble. Kotomine Kirei didn't need help in what he wanted to do. He just needed to kill the King of Heroes with the Command Seal when he was about to win.

After Dak had the idea, he picked out the best artificial human from many incubators and began to modify its memory and personality, while regulating its physical condition.

On the one hand, we must ensure the quality of this artificial individual, and on the other hand, we must also set up enough hidden tricks.

Dak needs to fabricate an intelligence entity that can serve as a signal transmitter and hide it in this artificial human body.

Just as he always does, he doesn't put all his eggs in one basket.

It would be best if we can get the Holy Grail, but if we can't, we have other plans, right?

Dak needs gains, not wins.

……

Kotomine Kirei sat alone in the room. Due to Gilgamesh's arrogance, he obviously would not share vision with him, so he could only observe with the help of the familiar that followed Gilgamesh.

Frankly speaking, he had no interest in fighting and was just fulfilling his duties as a Master.

He had nothing to do anyway, so he might as well continue thinking about life.

And riding on Vimalakirti, the boat of light made of gold and emeralds, Gilgamesh flew at a leisurely pace in the night sky.

In this war, the only one who can make Gilgamesh feel threatened is Karna.

So for him, it was just a matter of retrieving his treasure. Then he went to fight Karna with a serious attitude.

But the flawed Siegfried is not so good.

"Master..." Siegfried stood on the rooftop, the breeze blowing through his hair, and he vaguely felt a sense of threat.

The battle is coming.

Irisviel, who had already lost consciousness, was taken away by the androids, and he stayed here to cover their retreat.

There is a protective barrier around the castle of Einzbern, but it is no stronger than a piece of paper in front of Gilgamesh.

"Welcome the arrival of the king! Miscellaneous cultivators." Vimana's form, which violated the laws of physics, was suspended in the air.

From behind the broken barrier, the arrogant figure of Gilgamesh appeared.

Siegfried had nothing to say about Gilgamesh's arrogant remarks. He was not an articulate person, but rather a rather taciturn person.

Moreover, since he was soaked in dragon blood and even transformed into a dragon, he was definitely not a pure human being. He could not find any arguments to refute Gilgamesh - well, Siegfried's character was too honest.

Gilgamesh obviously didn't like talking to a mute, so he naturally started attacking.

But so be it.

There shouldn't be many people who can communicate normally with the middle school student Jinshanshan, right?

In other words, generally speaking, whether you reply or not, it will make him angry.

Golden ripples appeared in the sky, and the king's treasury opened.

The prototype of the treasure is violently shot out like a bullet or arrow. It only takes a very small amount of magic power to open the door of the treasury and launch an attack like a cannonball.

Because he was looking forward to the battle with Karna, Gilgamesh did not gradually increase the number of Noble Phantasms he fired.

Instead, it was like a hail of bullets and an overwhelming attack from the very beginning.

This kind of attack is already very powerful. It can be said that among the group of heroes, only a few can directly confront this move.

It can be regarded as a detector of the strong. Only those who can survive this move are qualified to be looked at seriously by him.

And Siegfried is one of these few powerful heroic spirits. The Dragon Blood Armor has an extremely high damage reduction effect. When attacked, it can reduce a level B of damage.

This kind of sweeping attack is mostly useless to Siegfried, and some of it can be deflected by the sword in his hand.

Even if the remaining attacks hit the body, there will be only one result, which is that they will not break the defense.

"Oh?

It’s a bit interesting.

I am Gilgamesh, the oldest hero king. Thank you for your kindness and tell me your name.

Saber! "

After watching Saber survive the massacre at the King's Treasury, Gilgamesh finally looked at Siegfried in the eye.

At this time, the castle had been reduced to ruins by Gilgamesh. The magic devices usually set up could hardly play a protective role in the face of such a heavy bombardment. As a product of the third method, the strength of Heroic Spirit Summoning itself crushed most magic.

The Einzbern Castle here is just a temporary base, not a headquarters, and its defense is really poor.

Siegfried did not suffer any injuries.

Siegfried did not respond to Gilgamesh's invitation.

The true names of some heroic spirits don’t matter, but for some heroic spirits, once their true names are exposed, their weaknesses will be discovered.

For example, when talking about Achilles, one will think of Achilles' heel.

When talking about Siegfried, one will think of his death due to the big weakness of the leaves behind him.

In most battles, Siegfried would not care about revealing his real name.

However, right now, he wanted to do his best to fulfill Irisviel's wish, so he naturally could not answer questions that would expose his weaknesses.

Emiya Kiritsugu also emphasized this matter with him.

This aspect made Emiya Kiritsugu quite satisfied. Although Siegfried was old-fashioned, he was not stubborn after all.

Unlike a certain knight whose blue hair can piss Kiritsugu off to death.

“Hehehe, this is my miscalculation. I shouldn’t have been nice to thieves like you who wanted to steal my treasure.

You, you pissed me off! You miscellaneous cultivator! " Seeing that Siegfried didn't respond, Gilgamesh immediately got angry.

He took the initiative to say hello, but the other party ignored him?

This is simply unreasonable!
The ripples of the King's Treasury were even greater, with ten times more treasures than before pouring down like a rainstorm.

Under this density of attack, there was actually no room for escape. The huge attack range made it impossible to escape, so Siegfried was in a very passive situation.

On the other hand, Gilgamesh was flying in the air on the Vimana, which was also troublesome for Siegfried who had no flying ability.

Because it's out of reach.

The only way at this time is to release the treasure to knock Gilgamesh down, but this will expose his true name and weakness.

It can be said that Siegfried was also quite conflicted.

However, Siegfried didn't have much time to think.

Gilgamesh's attack was fierce, but it also obscured his own vision.

At this moment, the only chance is to withstand the attack and release the treasure to knock Gilgamesh down.

However, although the single-target strength of Gilgamesh's ferocious attack is not high, it has changed from quantitative to qualitative. The attack intensity has exceeded the judgment standard of the Evil Dragon Blood Armor and has begun to cause damage.

Siegfried alone would not be able to perform this kind of blocking situation, which requires distraction. He not only has to release his Noble Phantasm but also has to hit the opponent without error.

Therefore, what is needed at this time is the Command Spell.

"Master, request the Command Seal to force the release of the Noble Phantasm at the fastest speed." Siegfried contacted Emiya Kiritsugu.

Knowing that the situation was urgent and not lacking in Command Seals, Emiya Kiritsugu was very heroic.

"In the name of the Command Spell.

Siegfried, recover!"

"In the name of the Command Spell.

Siegfried, use all your strength! "

"In the name of the Command Spell.

Siegfried, release your Noble Phantasm with all your strength!"

Now that their main base had been defeated, Emiya Kiritsugu no longer hesitated.

Who made him have so many Command Spells now?
In fact, if the upper limit of the servants' spiritual base in the Fuyuki Holy Grail War was not relatively low, Kiritsugu Emiya would have wanted to give Siegfried a few more enhancements.

As for the situation where the servants become disobedient after the Command Seals are used up... that doesn't have to be considered this time.

Emiya Kiritsugu could see that Siegfried had no intention of rebelling, and if he lost now, there would be no future.

There was no plan to support Siegfried, as that would only be a burden. What Emiya Kiritsugu had to do now was to find Irisviel.

Hearing Siegfried's request, he immediately made his choice.

After three consecutive strokes of the Command Spell to charge and strengthen, Siegfried's attributes were directly increased to the limit of his current spiritual base.

When the time came, Emiya Kiritsugu was also very decisive.

The exposed lines on the chest radiated a bluish-white light due to the transition of magic power.

The dragon blood armor strengthened by magic is enough to withstand the dispersion of Gilgamesh's treasure.

Under the reinforcement of the triple command spell, the magic power overflowed and even materialized to form something like a shield, repelling the surrounding treasures.

"Oh?" Gilgamesh was just interested in this. Isn't it interesting to have some unexpected fun?
Siegfried turned the blue gem on the hilt of his sword.

The magic power of the Age of Gods (True Aether) is stored and preserved there, and when it is released, it will release a powerful dusk-colored sword energy.

It's almost over
