The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 218 Purpose

"That's more interesting," Wes said, gripping his wand in his right hand.

His target this time is not Saber.

However, she is indeed a very troublesome person.

[The most troublesome one is Avalon.] Wes thought to himself.

Avalon is immune to all physical interference; no physical attack can leave a trace.

At the same time, it can also resist interference from all parallel worlds; no matter which time or space the force comes from, it is difficult to break through its defense.

In this world, Avalon is recognized as the strongest guardian. It can form an absolute defense that even the five great magics cannot reach.

However, there are other ways.

Avalon has no weaknesses, but the Knight King does.

Wes began to carefully analyze the Knight King's behavior patterns and weaknesses, looking for an opportunity to break through.

Wes plunged his wand into the ground.

"Gulp~"

"Gulp~"

The ground began to tremble slightly, and then magma surged from underground, spreading rapidly like a raging flood.

Seconds later, the terrain within a radius of several kilometers changed.

Lava kept erupting, and the scorching magma turned everything around it to ashes.

[The terrain was altered using magic, confirming the opponent is Caster.]

Artoria and Irisviel thought to themselves at the same time.

However, there are many famous magicians in history, so their identities cannot be confirmed.

Artoria wore a suit of blue armor, which accentuated her heroic spirit.

Her eyes were firm and brave, and she gripped the holy sword Excalibur tightly in her hand.

Alice also uses magic to resist the heat. Although her magical power is not as strong as Artoria's, it can still protect her to some extent.

"Saber, casting such powerful magic consumes a lot of mana. Let's attack him head-on and force him to reveal his master."

"Irisviel said eagerly."

In this battle, we must find the opponent's weaknesses as quickly as possible in order to achieve victory.

Artoria nodded, her eyes filled with determination.

"Take care of yourself," she told him before rushing toward Wes.

She was incredibly fast, like lightning, covering a distance of tens of meters in an instant.

Wes flicked his wand, and lava erupted beneath Artoria's feet.

The scorching lava shot into the sky like a fountain.

Artoria dodged with a swift and decisive roll.

Without pausing, she continued her sprint toward Wes.

Lava erupted in bursts, as if the earth was raging.

Artoria skillfully maneuvered, constantly closing the distance between herself and Wes.

Her figure darted through the lava like a nimble swallow.

The holy sword in his hand gleamed with a cold light, and its chilling aura sent shivers down one's spine.

Wes could already feel the chill above.

Artoria was fast; her longsword was about to pierce Wes's chest.

A bright smile spread across Wes's face, a smile that carried a hint of smugness and cunning.

His figure vanished from his spot in an instant, and the next moment he teleported to Alice's side.

Alice reacted extremely quickly, casting a spell to resist almost the instant Wes appeared.

However, her actions were ultimately no match for Wes's preparedness.

Golden chains flew out swiftly like serpents, instantly binding Alice's body tightly.

Wes knew perfectly well that Alice was merely Saber's proxy Master.

Irisviel von Einzbern is a homunculus, the greatest masterpiece of the Einzbern family.

Wes's purpose in coming here is to capture Alice alive.

Alice struggled fiercely, trying to resist the sudden restraint.

"That won't do," Wes said softly, his tone tinged with coldness.

The chains instantly unleashed powerful blue lightning that surged through Alice's body.

"Ah!" Alice screamed in pain, her body trembling violently.

"Alice!!" Artoria's eyes widened in fury, filled with anger and anxiety.

"mean!"

She roared, her voice filled with condemnation of Wes.

"This is war, not a one-on-one duel," Wes said sarcastically.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"You're too naive." His words were like sharp blades, piercing Artoria's heart.

A spatial rift appeared behind Wes.

"Goodbye, King of Knights." Wes's voice carried a hint of smugness.

"Stop!!" Artoria shouted.

However, how could Wes possibly listen to her? He dragged Alice along and stepped into the spatial rift without hesitation.

Artoria was about to unleash the Holy Sword, preparing to unleash her strongest attack.

However, Wes shielded Alice in front of him and sneered, "If you're not afraid of killing her, then go ahead and do it."

Artoria's body froze instantly, her eyes filled with pain and helplessness.

"How naive." After saying this, Wes disappeared into the spatial rift with Alice.

The crack closed quickly, as if it had never existed.

Artoria stared blankly at the spot where Wes had disappeared, her heart filled with regret and anger.

But for a moment I didn't know what to do.

A few minutes later, Kiritsugu Emiya rushed to the scene.

His gaze was calm and sharp as he surveyed his surroundings.

Seeing the unrecognizable landscape altered by the lava, and Artoria standing there looking lost and dejected, Kiritsugu Emiya roughly guessed what had happened.

"The specifics." His voice was calm and composed, not at all like the reaction of someone whose wife had been kidnapped.

There was not a trace of panic in his tone.

Artoria mechanically recounted what had happened, her voice filled with self-blame and regret.

She described in detail the enemy's attack methods, the power of the magic, and the process of Alice's kidnapping.

While inspecting the battlefield, Kiritsugu Emiya analyzed, "The enemy's initial target was Alice. They didn't use spatial magic at the beginning to lower your guard and lure you away from Alice."

His eyes were focused and sharp, not missing a single detail.

He carefully observed the marks on the ground, the damaged trees, and the lingering magical aura, trying to find clues about the enemy.

Artoria clenched her fist, her knuckles making a cracking sound.

She was filled with anger and self-blame, feeling that she had failed to protect Alice.

"The fact that they didn't kill Alice immediately probably means they've already guessed that she's not the real Master," Kiritsugu Emiya calmly analyzed the enemy's motives.

He knew that the enemy must have had other motives for sparing Alice's life.

Kiritsugu Emiya turned to leave.

"Wait a minute, aren't we going to rescue Alice?" Artoria asked anxiously.

Her eyes were filled with expectation, hoping that Kiritsugu Emiya could find a way to rescue Alice.
