The Warrior of Love

In theory, what happens in a singularity will not be recorded, and the Servants will not remember what happened the last time they were summoned.

But nothing is absolute!

In fact, some Servants can retain the memory of being summoned, and there are several such cases in Chaldea.

The same was true for Quetzalcoatl. Although it was the second time she was summoned, she remembered clearly what happened on the Mesopotamian plain, so she recognized Jiang Liu at a glance.

However...even if she didn't retain the memory of the singularity, Quetzalcoatl would definitely find ways to keep things related to Jiang Liu. After all, to this knowledgeable goddess, Jiang Liu's unconventional performance was too impressive.

"Haha, I was summoned because of the bond we had, but I didn't expect this place to be so lively before I was summoned. I believe that only Chaldea has the capital to organize a sports meeting attended by ancient heroes, right?"

Quetzalcoatl generously reached out and patted Jiang Liu on the shoulder: "I made a profit, how about your harvest?"

"Gain?" Jiang Liu was surprised for a moment. When he saw Quetzalcoatl making a gesture, he suddenly remembered that there was a gamble in this game.

After all the trouble just now, before Jiang Liu knew it, the first round of the game had ended and now it was the second round.

“Who won the race?”

"Um, it's that cute kid with pink hair and his Hippogriff."

Oh, it is Astolfo after all...

Although the stakes didn't matter, Jiang Liu guessed it right after all. He was so excited that he put aside the worries at home and focused his energy on the current game.

"What's going on now...ah, it turns out to be shooting."

What is going on in the field now is a shooting competition - note, not "archery".

Archery is an event that naturally belongs to Archer, but due to the various flying props of the servants, the rules had to be modified. Specific props are no longer specified, as long as they can hit the target.

Of course, most contestants still use bows and arrows, while some like Billy the Kid use pistols - for Servants, there is no essential difference between the two.

Looking around, the number of Servants participating in this match is much greater than the first match...

It could be that there are more Servants with flying gadgets than with vehicles, or it could be that archers have a stronger sense of competition...

Just the ones Jiang Liu saw were Artemis, Arjuna, Arash, Emiya and more than ten others.

This is just one of the groups. It seems that the competition is divided into two groups, A and B. So there are a total of about thirty servants participating in the competition, and the competition can be said to be extremely fierce.

However, the match was stopped halfway through due to an accident, and the Servants gathered around the referee and began to express their opinions.

Jiang Liu could see clearly from the audience that the contestants were arguing over the "target" issue and were not giving in to each other.

The referee was not Joan of Arc, but Scathach in a bunny girl costume.

As for what they were arguing about, to put it bluntly, it was nothing: the quality of the target was not up to standard.

One is easily destroyed.

The servants' arrows are very powerful. Even without the use of Noble Phantasms or the addition of magic power, the pure physical impact is enough to penetrate the steel plate. The target undoubtedly appears somewhat vulnerable to such arrows.

Both of them...are too easy to hit.

Interestingly, easy hits should be a good thing for contestants, but that's not the case here.

Because most heroes who can become "Archers" have good archery skills. Hitting the target every time is the most basic. There are also many who have clairvoyance. A certain red-clad archer can accurately hit a fist-sized tile even from thousands of meters away...

The venue is so small that no matter how difficult the challenge is, it will not be difficult for the Servants, let alone determine the winner.

"This is indeed an issue that needs to be dealt with properly...Does it need a target that is not easy to hit?"

Scathach thought for a moment, a light flashed in her eyes, and the "wisdom of the magic world" made her think of a solution.

"Well, then let's use Cu Chulainn, who has the "Protection from Arrows", as our target!"

-

Half an hour later...

The blue spearman, with a bruised face and a beaten up by his own master and then tied up high, looked hopeless and didn't know what evil he had done to deserve such a fate.

Didn't he just say "old woman" when drinking with Fergus? He didn't mention anyone by name. Is it necessary to hold a grudge against her for so long?

"Don't worry, I will find a way, Cuchulainn."

The speaker was Hohenheim, the recorder in charge of checking the ring counts, and he looked at the spearman with sympathy.

Cu Chulainn was deeply moved for a moment, but Hohenheim's next words left him speechless again.

"Even if you run out of dodge and combat, I can give you another one. You will definitely be able to hold on."

"Uh……"

Chapter 939: Who says that a delicate body is easy to be pushed down?

"What was the result? Did Cuchulainn die?"

"No, that guy is surprisingly tenacious... But surviving may not be a good thing. Maybe he hopes to die immediately."

"Oh, why?"

"Because the first responder was Ms. Nightingale."

"Uh……"

"Let's not talk about that. The next match is about to start. Let me see... oh, it's wrestling."

"Not lifting weights?"

"Weightlifting can only show the numerical superiority, but in a real power confrontation, burst, endurance, body size, and even momentum will affect the outcome. Simply comparing strength will not convince these servants.

However, wrestling is a separate sport...so the winner will be determined by arm wrestling."

"Oh...who has a higher chance of winning?"

"Of course it's Hercules! Is there anyone who could beat Hercules in such a contest?"

"That's true... Look, the first game is about to begin."

In the stands, everyone's eyes, including Jiang Liu and Quetzalcoatl, were focused on the two contestants who appeared on the stage.

The red team is a tall young man wearing a red tights and a conceptual ceremonial costume made of holy cloth. His well-defined abdominal muscles prove that he has been well-trained. His short silver hair and steel-like eyes let people know that he is not just for show.

"Hey, I don't know this guy...but he looks pretty strong."

"Of course, he's super brave--ahem!"

Jiang Liu took a look and said casually: "That's Archero Emiya. His opponent... um, doesn't look very strong."

Quetzalcoatl looked at the opposite side and nodded.

Just as Jiang Liu said, Red A's opponent looked very petite and even weak.

Her flaxen long hair was parted on both sides, revealing her slightly high forehead. Her cute little face was still childish, and the somewhat loose dress she wore highlighted her innocent temperament.

Her name is Abigail. She is a servant that Ritsuka met in the subspecies singularity, and this is also the first time Jiang Liu has seen her.

Judging from their body shape, there is a huge disparity in strength between the two. The red archer is a standard strong adult man, while Abigail is just a teenage girl. She looks weak and has no muscles on her body.

"The outcome is not in doubt at all."

Not only Quetzalcoatl, most of the audience thought so. As the most intuitive reaction, the betting odds for this game had reached 1:100, and basically no one thought that the Red Archer would lose.

In fact, even Emiya himself was full of confidence. Although he had seen people like Saber whose brute strength did not match her appearance, Saber was still barely a girl, and in ancient times she would have been an adult. But Abigail in front of him could only be classified as a loli no matter how he looked at her.

He couldn't defeat King Arthur, but he could defeat a loli?

"Woo..." Abigail seemed a little nervous, holding the stuffed toy tightly with one of her little hands and refusing to let go.

Seeing this, Emiya's male mother attributes overflowed, and he smiled and said, "Don't be afraid, I will be very careful and won't hurt you."

"Well, thank you, big brother!" Abigail called out obediently, which softened the archer's heart.

At the command of the referee Martha, the archer placed his right hand on the table, while Algabi sat on a high stool and held the archer's hand together.

"Okay, 1, 2, 3--"

"Haha, it's about to begin. Big brother, please use more force slowly, little sister - ah!"

boom!

With a loud bang, the back of the archer's hand slammed heavily on the table!

Unable to react, Emiya stared at his right hand and the small dent on the table, lost in thought...

"Oh oh! I win, I win!"

Abigail was stunned for a moment before cheering, looking towards Emiya with gratitude.

"I didn't expect it to be so easy. Big brother must be letting me, right?"

"what?"

Red A was confused for a moment, and when he came to his senses, the corners of his mouth twitched and he revealed an awkward smile.

"Yes, yes..."

"Winner: Abigail!"

With Martha's ruling, the first game officially ended.

"Is this a fixed match?!" There was a lot of booing from the audience, and even Quetzalcoatl was unhappy.

But Jiang Liu took out the same data terminal as Ritsuka, checked the servant's information, and suddenly realized it.

Abigail's strength is actually B, even though she looks so petite... On the contrary, Red A's muscles are only D!

Jiang Liu was speechless for a rare moment, but the competition had to go on. Everyone's attention was soon drawn to the contestants in the second game. After seeing their appearance clearly, everyone showed hesitant or strange expressions.

Because just like the first game, this is also a combination of adults versus loli.

One of them has extremely muscular body, with gold ornaments all over his body, dressed like a gangster or a criminal, wearing sunglasses, giving people a sense of "keep away from strangers", and even his cheerful smile seems to be threatening others...

It was Sakata Kintoki, a hero from the Far East. Although he looked vicious, he actually had a very good personality.

Everyone knew his opponent. She had appeared once before at the opening ceremony. She was the little girl wearing a white princess dress, with long blue hair and a delicate face.

"Haha, I didn't expect my opponent to be a kid. This is the first one I encountered after being summoned... This is so un-Golden! Even if I win, there's nothing to brag about."

Jin Shi placed his hands on the table and smiled brightly: "I wonder if your slender arms can make me shake even a little bit, hahaha..."

The little girl tilted her head, a hint of doubt in her eyes flashing with cross stars, but she still stretched out her hand and shook hands with the other's strong and powerful right hand.

This man looks so strong... I feel a little uneasy. I should be more serious - the girl thought to herself.

-

"Winner: Little Tia!"

Martha raised little Tiamat's hand. The petite girl with dragon horns remained expressionless. Her slightly silly eyes swept across the audience. The scene suddenly became quiet, as if everyone was shocked.

In fact, it was almost the same... The reason for the dead silence in the venue was that a blond strong man who was a hundred meters away from the competition point, crashed into the wall, made a big hole, and then fell to the ground and fainted.

"Why would an arm wrestle cause me to fly hundreds of meters in a circle... I didn't even see what happened."

"A Noble Phantasm? It must be a Noble Phantasm! He must have used a Noble Phantasm!"

"Uh..." Only Jiang Liu looked surprised and even looked at Jin Shi with sympathy.

Poor child... I hope he doesn't suffer any psychological trauma.

Having said that, it was really embarrassing for two grown men to kneel down under the hands of a little loli...

Fortunately, the result is not always like this. We can only hope that the contestants behind us can bring some glory to the "strong men".

"The third game!"

Soon, the staff cleaned up everything and the third game began.

"Hercules vs. Shidune!"

Jiang Liu: “…”

Chapter 940: Ishtar is full of pride

"Ahahahaha... I made a profit! As expected, my decision was correct. As the saying goes, no one can get rich without unexpected fortune. No matter how frugal you are in life, you can't make so much money!"

In a dark room, the black-haired goddess was staring at the gold and silver treasures on the table with golden eyes.

The gorgeous gems and exquisite gold ornaments piled together sparkled even in the dark room, making the goddess indulge in it and unable to extricate herself.

Moreover, what was on the table was only a part of it. Most of it had filled up all the corners of the room, leaving almost no space in this small inner room.
