The Warrior of Love

"Is she the current Master of Chaldea? She doesn't look that remarkable. Even though she saved Humanity, she still looks defenseless and hasn't grown up at all."

Ophelia belittled Ritsuka and turned to look at Mashu.

"Mashu, I'm so sorry that our long-awaited reunion has to take this form. However, this is an unavoidable fact. Now you and I can only stand on opposite sides of the enemy."

"Why... Miss Ophelia, why are you... what's going on?"

Mashu was rarely shaken. The sub-servant girl who could raise a large shield to resist the power of the gods was now in extreme panic.

Li Xiang was anxious: "Mashu, what's going on? Do you know this eyepatch girl?"

"Yes, Senior."

Mashu managed to calm down and said to the Master concisely: "She is Miss Ophelia Farmsolone... She is one of the Masters of Chaldea and a member of Group A, which has the highest priority!"

"Group A? Master? But aren't all the other Masters..."

"That's right. On the day when Professor Leif detonated Chaldea, a bomb was hidden under the cabin that the Masters were riding in. All of them were injured, but they were only able to survive because they were frozen in time...

After the restoration of humanity, the rescue work for the frozen Masters has been ongoing. However, Group A, which is composed of elite Masters, was in the stage of spirit particle transfer when the explosion occurred. Therefore, they not only suffered physical losses, but even the meaning of their existence was blurred. If they were rescued rashly, there would be no hope of survival.

The doctor and Da Vinci are planning to take it slow...Yes, all the members of Group A, including Miss Ophelia, should be frozen in the cabin!"

Mashu took a deep breath: "But, she appeared here, and..."

"And he is hostile towards us." Ritsuka realized the seriousness of the matter.

Ophelia's appearance in this world is not simply because there is a traitor in Chaldea.

Who saved her, who transferred her here, and what mission was given to her?

Or more directly -

What is her relationship with this conspiracy and the mastermind behind it?

"I know you have a lot of questions, but I have nothing to explain to you, because you will die here, and everything will be meaningless. In the name of Ophelia Farmsolone, I declare: Your journey ends here, and pan-human history has ended!"

As soon as the words fell, the Valkyries raised their spears condensed with divine light.

That was a counterfeit of the "Great God's Declaration". Even now that it was damaged in the eyes of the machine, it could still exert military-level lethality. The combined attack of the ten Valkyries was comparable to the release of the true name of the strongest holy sword!

However, Mashu reacted quickly. Although her heart was shaken by Ophelia, her combat experience prompted her to respond in time.

A large cross shield stood in front of everyone, and the sub-servant girl fearlessly faced the rain of divine spears falling from the sky, and released the treasure with a loud shout.

Buzz! boom!

The pure white city walls appeared in the light, blocking all the bombarding divine spears. Even if their power was equivalent to the highest level of anti-city treasures, they could not break through this seemingly illusory chalk city.

"Magic core overloaded...machine overloaded...damage status uploaded."

The previous attack was already the limit of the Valkyries. Except for the sisters Slude and Hildre, the other Valkyries did not have the ability to continue fighting. Even Slude, who was at the god level, was unable to release magic power on a large scale.

To kill that man...the price they paid was too high!

However, the fighting power brought by Ophelia is not just them, the real killer is the knight she contracted!

"Come on, it's your turn, Saber!"

"Hehe, as you command, my Master."

The slightly lazy tone revealed a murderous intent that could not be ignored. The masked man's eyes flashed red, and a huge amount of magic power rose in his body. The magic sword in his hand shone with a dazzling blood light.

"Then start killing!"

Before he finished speaking, the man rushed in front of Mashu as if he had teleported.

At this moment, the Noble Phantasm had just been released, and Mashu had not yet regrouped, so the experienced Saber seized the opportunity and chopped the magic sword down mercilessly.

"Qiang!!"

The invisible sound waves stirred up the smoke and flying snow around, and Ritsuka was almost blown away, but was caught in time by the hooded Lancer and dodged to the side.

clang!clang!clang!

In less than a second, ten consecutive slashes landed on the shield, and the impact force was almost connected in a line, knocking Mashu, who had durability A, back step by step.

If you look closely, you will find that the magic sword in Saber's hand has become two.

The blood-red magic sword that was originally as tall as a person has now turned into two slender one-handed swords, which are constantly swinging out fierce attacks in the knight's hands.

Mashu gathered her magic power, pushed her large shield forward against the continuous slashes, and forcibly pushed Saber away.

"Drink!"

The tail end of the large cross shield swept across the ground, raising a trail of dust, while the shield surface tilted like a heavy sword and swept towards the enemy.

"Wow, she actually dared to fight back. She's quite a strong girl."

The man easily caught Mashu's attack and stopped the heavy shield with one hand. He turned his wrist and slashed it. The sub-servant girl dodged in time but still had a strand of her hair cut off.

"Asshole, go to hell!!"

With a roar, a beautiful black shadow passed over Mashu and fell from the sky.

"Qiang!"

Saber's magic sword and Rider's knight sword collided with each other, making a "crack" sound, and the girl with short silver hair suddenly looked grim.

Her knight sword was just an ordinary weapon, not even a treasure, and could not be compared with the enemy's magic sword.

However, since the distance between the two sides is so close, it doesn't matter whether to use weapons or not.

"Tsk!"

Resolutely abandoning the cracked sword, the girl landed on the ground with both feet, and relying on her short stature, she lunged forward, almost stabbing into Saber's arms.

"asshole!!"

The powerful beating of his heart pumped the blood filled with magic into his limbs and bones. Rider burst out with a strange strength that was inconsistent with his petite body and hit the man hard between the chest and abdomen.

bang——

However, Rider's expression froze instantly.

It was different from what she had imagined, where Saber would be knocked away immediately. After this punch, the opponent's internal organs might have been damaged, but he was as unshakable as a mountain and still stood firmly on the ground.

You know, she has activated her "super strength" and "released her magic power"!

"This is……"

"Go away!"

The knight roared, and slammed his right leg into the girl like a released crossbow, almost breaking her waist.

Then, a powerful force far greater than Rider's exploded, instantly sending the gray-haired girl's slender body flying far away, burying her in the snow, with no idea whether she was dead or alive.

Rider has excellent ability values ​​and inherent skills that specifically increase strength. Although he may look small, he is actually a complete violent machine and is a leader even among Servants.

But Saber's power was able to crush her with absolute advantage!

This is no longer the strength a Servant can possess... Compared to a knight, Saber at this moment is undoubtedly more like a beast.

Bang!

He turned around and bypassed the large shield's defense, and kicked the unstable Mashu hard. The girl groaned and flew backwards several meters.

In just a moment, the two servants were easily defeated, and the brave magic swordsman was like a fish in water.

"Die, Master of Panhuman History!"

Saber’s eyes lit up with a ferocious bloodshot light, and with a wave of her hands, she combined the long swords into a magic sword again, and slashed at Ritsuka fiercely and resolutely—

"Master, please stand back!"

Lancer's actions were faster than her words. Before she finished speaking, she had already rushed out to block the swordsman's attack.

The heavy spear that ordinary people cannot grasp was wielded with great agility by her slender hands. With a sudden thrust, she forced the swordsman back.

"ridiculous!"

Saber sneered, raised the blood-red sword pressure with the magic sword, released the surging magic power in the body, and rolled back a whirlwind that could tear apart all flesh and blood.

Lancer was fearless and advanced instead of retreating. The strange-shaped spear pierced through the wind pressure and also released magic power, but it was a blue-green flame.

In a flash, the two men turned their heads and avoided the dangerous attack.

But Saber's helmet mask had been burned by the flames. The man snorted coldly and took off the helmet and threw it on the ground.

He had a sturdy face that fit his identity as a warrior, but for some reason he was wearing a pair of glasses that didn't fit in with the atmosphere.

Lancer's cloak was also blown away by the blood-red wind pressure, his long ice-blue hair fluttered in the wind, and his pair of eyes, which were faintly filled with sadness, made people feel pity for him.

"Sigurd... my love."

"Brunhild, it really is you... What a bad fate."

"sister!"

"It's actually Sister Brunhilde!"

The Valkyries immediately became agitated, even the usually cold Slude. If it weren't for the strict discipline, she would have rushed up to surround Brunhilde and cheered.

Saber and Lancer are the most famous tragic lovers in Norse mythology - Sigurd & Brunhilde!

The two saw each other's true faces, but they were not surprised at all, but relieved instead.

Ophelia, on the other hand, after hearing Brunhilde's name, subconsciously glanced at the heart-shaped spear in her hand...

"That's not good. If the opponent is Brunhilde... Saber!"

"Please rest assured, Master."

The cold warrior said: "Even if the opponent is my former lover, as long as I accept the order to conquer you, my magic sword will not hesitate. No matter what I was like in the past, I am just your knight now."

"I never doubted your loyalty, Sigurd."

Ophelia shook her head slightly. "But it's a little too early to meet Brunhilde now. If it were any other opponent, you would be the Warrior King who would never fail. But the opponent is Brunhilde, and even a magic sword as strong as yours would be bound by the myth.

Besides..."

She glanced at the Valkyries who were no longer able to fight.

"I made a mistake in judgment this time. I am clearly not strong enough. Even if we can win by fighting like this, the sacrifices will be too great. I cannot lose you before the final dusk. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Sigurd put away his magic sword.

But Brunhilde did not relax her vigilance at all. She still stood in front of Ritsuka and stared at Saber.

"That's all for now. Neither of us is fully prepared yet. Let's see who has the better hand next time."

Ophelia gave the order, and both the Valkyrie and Sigurd obeyed.

"Goodbye, the last Master in pan-human history... and Mashu, there will be no chance for us to meet next time!"

When Ophelia left, Ritsuka did nothing.

Perhaps, the eyepatch woman was afraid of Brunhilde's influence on Sigurd, so she chose to retreat, but this does not mean that Ritsuka has the advantage.

Because the gap in strength is an objective reality, it would be foolish to just hope that Brunhilde could perform exceptionally well.

Just as Ophelia said, their preparations were not sufficient and they could only decide the outcome next time.

The girl subconsciously touched the Command Spell. Originally, she could sense Jiang Liu's presence, so she was not panicking. But she didn't know when the passage had been completely closed, and it seemed that even the Command Spell could not transfer it back.

"Brother... where are you?"

Chapter 789: The Dusk That Never Ended

Where is Jiang Liu? He himself doesn't know.

But what is certain is that there are absolutely no living people in this space!

The icy and snowy world outside is already quite unsuitable for human survival, and this place is simply hell!

Because the flame that burns here all year round is not a raging fire in the physical sense, but a "concept of burning".

All people or objects that enter here will burn like this world, but will not be completely reduced to ashes. Instead, they will maintain a delicate balance in the "wreckage" state and continue to do so forever.

This state is like... like the moment of the end of the world, and it is suddenly frozen into a moving photo.

Although it has not been burned to ashes, it has definitely been destroyed.

Jiang Liu did not rush out, but started searching in this doomsday world.

He passed through the dark wasteland licked by wildfires, crossed the riverbed that had been evaporated clean, saw the lonely skeleton of a giant beast, and stood on a high mountain, looking out over the horizon to see a sea of ​​fire.
