Crossover Anime: Starting with Adopting the Homeless Melon God

Although he lost the magical barriers and traps accumulated by the Tohsaka family over many years, he also went into hiding, making it difficult for others to find him.

However, he could continue to monitor the Einzbern family's suburban castle and Kitagawa Yu's movements through his familiars scattered throughout the city.

In this way, he could have Gilgamesh use Ea to launch a sneak attack while Artoria was resting.

Even if Gilgamesh is unwilling, it's useless; he still has a Command Seal that can force Gilgamesh to take action.

Therefore, as long as he lowers his bottom line a little, he still has a chance to operate.

Thinking of this, Tokiomi Tohsaka, who had been somewhat dejected, immediately cheered up again.

Meanwhile, Kitagawa Yuya received news that Demon King Nobunaga and Hundred-Faced Hassan had been defeated and died under Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, with only Emiya Kiritsugu escaping using Command Seals.

Clearly, this was also completely beyond his expectations, catching him somewhat off guard.

He then learned from the familiar that Emiya Kiritsugu had single-handedly stormed into the hotel from the one monitoring Kenneth's hotel.

"It seems that Kiritsugu Emiya hasn't given up yet," Kitagawa Yu couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

He understood Kiritsugu Emiya, after all, it was related to his ideals and aspirations, and if he gave up easily, he wouldn't be Kiritsugu Emiya.

Even if Kiritsugu Emiya succeeds in gaining control of Scheherazade from Kenneth, it will pose no threat to him.

More logically, it's still uncertain whether Scheherazade could hold out against Iskandar until that moment.

At this moment, what he should pay the most attention to are Tokiomi Tohsaka and Gilgamesh who have escaped.

Of all the characters who appeared in the entire Fourth War, apart from Artoria, only Iskandar and Diarmuid were somewhat trustworthy. The rest were all a bunch of shameless, unscrupulous, and unethical guys. So he was also worried that Gilgamesh might suddenly appear in the middle of the night and give him a Divergence attack.

He can't expect Artoria to maintain Avalon's barrier all day long, can he? That would consume too much mana!

Therefore, we still need to find a way to eliminate Gilgamesh and Tokiomi Tohsaka as soon as possible.

"But how do we find Tokiomi Tohsaka?"

“By the way, doesn’t Yu have a divine technique that can be used to find people?” Chizuka said.

"My skill has a very long cooldown, and most importantly, it's affected by magic barriers, so I might not be able to find Tokiomi Tohsaka," Kitagawa Yu explained.

At this moment, Elena suddenly put her hands on her hips and coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention.

"Hey, have you all forgotten? This witch also knows that kind of magic to find people~"

Kitagawa Yu was taken aback, then remembered that Elaina had indeed mentioned that she also had a person-finding magic when they were in the Conan world.

However, her search magic has many conditions. First, it requires the target to have recently come into contact with an item, the closer the time, the better. Second, it is also subject to magical interference.

However, it is just what is needed for the current situation.

The Tohsaka family mansion where they were located contained things that Tokiomi Tohsaka had just come into contact with. As for the interference of the magic barrier, that depended on the relative strength of the two sides.

Tokiomi Tohsaka is said to be from a prestigious magic family in Japan, but in the grand scheme of magic, he's only third-rate. His skills are incomparable to Elaina's.

Irena picked up the half-finished, still-warm coffee cup from the study table and prepared to cast a spell.

At this moment, Chizuka couldn't help but ask, "Do we really not need any help with Rider's side?"

“Let’s just forget about it,” Kitagawa Yu said. “This is a fair duel between the master and his student, a contest of scholarship and dignity, so let’s not interfere.”

"OK then."

Then, under Elena's magic, the coffee cup and the coffee inside transformed into a dove with strange, stringy patterns, guiding everyone away from the Tohsaka family's residence.

Seeing this, Kitagawa Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Clearly, the magical barrier surrounding Tokiomi Tohsaka's hiding place couldn't interfere with Elaina's magic.

"Without further ado, let's go!"

Kitagawa Yu and his group quickly left the area, chasing after the pigeons.

Meanwhile, the battle between Iskandar and Scheherazade has reached a critical point.

Just a few seconds ago, under Iskandar's pull, Scheherazade couldn't hold back and activated his Noble Phantasm, One Thousand and One Nights, for the second time.

The result was naturally a wasted effort, and because the Heroic Spirit Legion's positions became more dispersed, this One Thousand and One Nights only managed to take away about two thousand Heroic Spirits, which was obviously a huge loss.

However, Iskandar's subsequent sneak attack plan also failed.

He originally intended to launch a distant ravages and domination attack to deliver a fatal blow to Scheherazade when Scheherazade had just unleashed her Noble Phantasm and was low on mana.

Although the fallen heroes in the Army of Kings would simply return to the Throne of Heroes, seeing so many warriors who had fought alongside him throughout his life fall to the rain of arrows still made his heart waver, and he felt a strong urge to end the battle quickly.

Unfortunately, although Kenneth wasn't present, he was just as focused on the battle as Waver. The moment Scheherazade unleashed her Noble Phantasm, he used his second Command Spell to replenish Scheherazade's mana.

In this way, Scheherazade had only one tube of magic left, and one Command Seal.

On Iskandar's side, although he still has three Command Seals left, his original army of over 50,000 Heroic Spirits has now dwindled to just over 30,000.

It must be said that Scheherazade is still strong.

He single-handedly wiped out Iskandar's army of nearly 20,000 heroic spirits.

If she continues at this pace, she clearly won't be able to finish off the army of Heroic Spirits before her mana and Command Seals are exhausted.

Kenneth noticed this as well, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

Seeing that Iskandar, that shameless guy, was still frantically pulling and tugging, looking like he was saying, "Come and hit me, come and hit me now,"

Kenneth suddenly made a desperate and reckless decision.

"Caster! Next time Rider dares to get close, activate your Noble Phantasm! I'll use my final Command Spell to enhance it!"

The Command Seal Enhancement is essentially a double charge; while it may not double the coverage area, it certainly provides a significant boost.

In order to lure Scheherazade into activating his Noble Phantasm, Iskandar kept jumping around the edge of the range of his Noble Phantasm. If the range of One Thousand and One Nights suddenly expands, he will definitely be covered in it!

Chapter 182 The Emperor Who Ran Away

"It must succeed!"

Kenneth clenched his fists, and the veins on his neck bulged.

At this moment, he was even more nervous than when he first stood on the podium as a child prodigy lecturer in the Spirit Summoning Department.

Success or failure depends on this!

Will his plan succeed?

Iskandar was indeed very strong, and was regarded by European historians as the first of the seven greatest commanders in the world. He founded such a large empire, and was a top choice in both bravery and strategy.

However, he was just a rider and did not have the ability to see the future like clairvoyance. In addition, the information he got about Kenneth from Waver was very limited and one-sided. He only knew that Kenneth was a genius, but too arrogant and self-centered.

As for the rest, I don't know.

Therefore, even he could not have predicted that Kenneth would take such a desperate gamble at this moment, not only causing Scheherazade to exhaust its magic power again to unleash its Noble Phantasm, but also using its last Command Seal to strengthen it.

In this way, even if Scheherazade wins in the end, with all its magic power and Command Seals exhausted, it would be impossible for it to be a match for either Kitagawa Yu or Tohsaka Tokiomi.

Therefore, Kenneth's decision seems unreasonable no matter how you look at it.

Kenneth, whose anger had been repeatedly provoked by him, made this very unreasonable decision.

Judging from his appearance, he was the one who looked like a brute. Kenneth, who always acted as elegant as an aristocrat, was much more reckless than him at this moment.

However, being a shrewd strategist, he still habitually kept a backup plan for himself.

That means the already incredibly fast speed he displayed earlier wasn't his limit! After all, the Divine Wheel is an A+ rank Noble Phantasm, how could it be only as simple as it was just shown?

Seeing Scheherazade suddenly activate her Noble Phantasm again, and with a coverage area a third larger than before, Iskandar's expression changed and he was startled, but he did not panic at all.

As the characters from those stories unleashed terrifying magical energy waves that hurtled towards him, his Divine Wheel instantly lit up with blinding lightning. The entire vehicle transformed into a giant ball of lightning, withstanding the damage from One Thousand and One Nights, and successfully broke out of the coverage area at an astonishing speed.

Of course, this is also related to the characteristics of One Thousand and One Nights.

The damage from One Thousand and One Nights is inflicted separately by each of the manifested characters in the story, essentially a segmented attack, with the strongest genie appearing last.

Only then will this EX-rank Noble Phantasm truly unleash its full power.

With both sides countering him, Iskandar would definitely be destroyed by the Genie in one blow.

Unfortunately, Iskandar's speed was too fast after he unleashed his full power. Before the Genie could even appear, he had already escaped the Noble Phantasm's capture range.

However, the damage caused by the characters in the previous stories should not be underestimated.

When he brought the Divine Wheel to a stop, his skin and armor were already shattered, and his body was covered in blood and gore.

Webber, on the other hand, was unharmed because he blocked all the attacks with his tall stature.

This moved Weber to tears.

Without saying a word, Waver wiped away his tears and immediately used a Command Spell to instantly heal Iskandar's injuries.

Seeing this from afar, Scheherazade couldn't help but show a helpless expression. Then, following Kenneth's initial instructions, he directly unleashed the next few waves of damage from his Noble Phantasm onto the densest part of the Heroic Spirit army.

Boom boom boom!

Several more enormous mushroom clouds exploded in the vast desert.

With the blessing of the Command Seals, this massive One Thousand and One Nights directly wiped out nearly eight thousand Heroic Spirits of Iskandar.

As a result, his army of heroic spirits was reduced to just over 20,000, less than half of its original size.

In addition, one Command Seal was also used up. Although this battle was fought by Heroic Spirits, the losses were so heavy that even Waver, who should have been happy to defeat his teacher, could not be happy.

"Rest assured, my fallen warriors! In the future, I will surely obtain the Greater Grail and regain my physical body. At that time, I will summon you all to join me in conquering this world once again!" Iskandar solemnly clenched his right fist and placed it over his heart, speaking loudly.

Below, the remaining 20,000-plus heroic spirits, while chanting their determination to win, unleashed a final barrage of arrows.

"boom!"

The Moon Spirit Essence, which had spontaneously coalesced into a shield, was once again shattered by the terrifying barrage of tens of thousands of arrows. Immediately afterward, Scheherazade, which it had protected within, also shattered, transforming into a ray of light that detached from Iskandar's mental world. Along with the previously defeated Demon King Nobunaga and Hassan the Hundred-Faced, they were absorbed into the Lesser Grail System within Matou Sakura's body.

In this way, half of the six Heroic Spirits needed for the descent of the Greater Grail have been gathered.

Iskandar stood proudly atop his chariot, his eyes gleaming as he gazed into the distance, beginning to contemplate his next course of action.

Although there are still five Heroic Spirits left, including him, if divided by faction, only he, Kitagawa Yu, and Tohsaka Tokiomi remain.

If he could, he would like to team up with Tokiomi Tohsaka to eliminate Yu Kitagawa from the competition.

The problem is that Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm is too effective against him, even more so than Scheherazade's.

If he eliminates Kitagawa Yu first, then he will have absolutely no chance of winning against Gilgamesh one-on-one.

One sword strike could destroy his mental world along with his entire army of heroic spirits. There's no way he can fight this!

Furthermore, as the 'son of Zeus,' his divinity is not low, and he is also restrained by the Chains of Heaven. He really has no way to deal with Gilgamesh!
