After confirming at a glance that this was not a tactic that came up on a whim, Diarmuid excitedly burst out with a raging aura.
"Diarmuid Odin, the Knights of Fiona, are here!"
Chapter 68: Sharp Edge in Mind
"The Northern and Southern armies have begun fighting the Celtic army! The Northern Army's left wing and center troops are breaking through the enemy's formation one after another!"
"The Southern Army is also excellent! The sabotage operations arranged by Robin Hood and his men in advance have weakened the enemy! It won't take long before we can further advance the front line!"
Chaldea's battle reports continued to come in the form of sound from the communicator on his wrist. Shiomi glanced at his wrist and looked at Diarmuid who was gasping for breath in front of him.
The two men fought all the way to a nearby hill. Below the hill was a battlefield where Celtic and American soldiers were fighting.
Shiomi turned off the communication and looked at the exhausted Diarmuid: "You heard it all. The Northern Army and the Central Army are breaking through. On our side..."
He glanced at the battlefield around him, and casually waved his red spear, knocking down the Celtic warriors who rushed up to attack him.
Unlike the Celtic army, the American army's mechanical soldiers and ordinary soldiers obeyed Shiomi's orders and did not rush over to help, but concentrated on fighting the Celtic soldiers.
"The difference between the soldiers is only a hair's breadth. In this case, the number and bravery of the generals will become the decisive factors." Diarmuid regained his breath and pointed his red sword at Shiomi. "The two guns have long reached the divine realm, but at the beginning they could only fight me with guns they were not used to."
During the second fight, Diarmuid only had the strength to strike one more blow. The more he thought about the record he brought to the singularity, the more he regretted it.
But now, Shiomi is giving it his all, and Diarmuid is gradually becoming unable to cope with the situation alone.
The pair of red spears were longer than the two swords. While trying to shorten the distance to attack, he had to be careful not to be hit by the red spears.
After all, the curse on the gun was no less powerful than that of the "Destroyable Yellow Rose", and Diarmuid knew it very well.
What's more, this pair of double guns is so sharp, the virtual is real and the real is virtual.
The real and fake offensive intentions switched freely in Xijian's hands without any hindrance at all.
Diarmuid also wisely gave up the idea of continuing to speculate.
The double guns and double swords clashed again.
"Why would a heroic spirit like you submit to the likes of the Mad King and Maeve?" Shiomi pressed Diarmuid's sword with his two guns. "Wouldn't it be a disgrace to your chivalry to participate in the destruction of human history?"
"Because we lost, both me and my lord, we lost to Her Excellency the Princess of Light, so we had no choice but to accept the mead from Queen Maeve." Diarmuid showed a difficult smile, "I am already a defeated general, there is no reason for me to surrender and then rebel again!"
At the end of his words, he gritted his teeth and pushed Shiomi away, then jumped up, far exceeding the height that a servant could reach in his materialized state.
Magical release (jump).
Diarmuid, who was raised by the gods, only gained this ability when he appeared in the world as Saber in order to make up for the lack of his original ability changes.
A high enough jump brought enough acceleration, and Diarmuid's double sword moves were extremely powerful, which was completely inconsistent with his handsome face.
As the magic power was released, Shiomi had to resort to rune magic to open a shield for defense instead of taking the force head-on.
"So you plan to continue fighting to the death for the Mad King and Maeve, correct?"
Shiomi realized that Diarmuid could not be persuaded, and only confirmed this.
Then, Finn, who was caught in a flaw, was swept by Scathach and kicked from mid-air to the battlefield between Shiomi and Diarmuid. The huge impact knocked over a dozen Celtic warriors who were trying to rush up the hillside.
"Give up, my beloved disciple. These two people will not change their minds. Knights also have their own pride. Even if they understand the righteousness of protecting human history, they will not be fickle." Scathach landed next to Shiomi.
In the smoke, Finn stood up somewhat awkwardly.
"My lord, are you okay?" Diarmuid asked worriedly.
Finn wiped the blood off his face, shook the spear in his hand, and said with awe-inspiring momentum: "I can still fight again! But can you keep up with me, young man?!"
"Of course, this is the first shot from the Fianna Knights, and Diarmuid Odin's swordsmanship is far from being fully displayed!" Diarmuid responded with high morale.
Hearing this, Finn grinned, and bubbles appeared around his body and then shot out like cannonballs.
"Eiwaz!"
While launching, Shiomi also recited the rune, and the speed of the water bullets suddenly dropped, finally stopping in front of him and his master and disappearing.
Scathach did not praise Shiomi's precise response, because Diarmuid had already jumped up again at this time, raised his two swords and slashed down. She looked up indifferently, waved the red spear in her right hand to offset the attack, and then stabbed out with the red spear in her left hand. Diarmuid dodged with all his strength, but his left arm was still scratched by the spear blade.
The injury won't heal quickly, but it won't be that troublesome either.
"Beautiful, that strike should have pierced your throat directly." Scathach held the gun in one hand and pointed it at the two men with the other hand, "But next, you two, the master and the servant, will face us, the master and the disciple, so be prepared."
Finn smiled humorously, "If I knew about the love between the Queen of Shadow Country and her disciple, I would probably be extremely envious."
"That man would never have such an idea." Scathach shook her head, as if she had heard a joke.
"But this Diarmuid here is also a man who has been pursuing love all his life! His love is no less than yours!" Finn suddenly changed the subject.
This is clearly a life-and-death battlefield, yet you still have the time to say these words.
"This has nothing to do with the battlefield, my lord!" Diarmuid was also a little overwhelmed, but his reaction seemed like he was already accustomed to Finn's behavior.
"I can't agree with this, Lord of the Knights of Fianna. Both of you are just alone on the battlefield. There is no room to talk about love." Scathach actually started chatting.
Just as Shiomi was about to remind his master not to be distracted, Scathach suddenly stuck the gun in his left hand into the ground, grabbed his shoulders, and kissed Shiomi on the battlefield without any warning or hesitation.
"Hahahaha! You are worthy of being the Queen of the Kingdom of the Dead! Have fun!" Finn was stunned for a moment, then laughed happily a few times, and then his smile was suddenly tainted with murderous intent, "Even if I have two opponents like you, even if I become the enemy of human nature, I can't help but want to enjoy fighting with you two!"
Shiomi, who was kissed by his master for no apparent reason, felt more embarrassed than happy. After all, the mountains were full of enemies, and if he wasn't careful, a Celtic warrior would climb up, like now -
He swung his gun again, knocking down a soldier who tried to attack from behind. After wiping his lips with his sleeve, he rushed towards the two men first.
Chapter 69 My NP is full, I don't want to play anymore
Finn MacCool, who is loyal to the King of Ailin, slays evil gods, and is a knight who has long protected the people from invaders and demons.
His outstanding military achievements make him worthy of the title of Knight Commander even among the Knights of Fianna.
Although he was resourceful and admired by many knights, his brilliance was still overshadowed by the years.
No matter how great a hero is, as time goes by, the things he needs to protect will increase.
Power, justice, people...
The more things you want to protect, the more cloudy your eyes become.
The man gradually lost his freedom.
In the end, Finn did not give up what he wanted to protect, and no matter how painful it was, he remained the guardian of Ailin.
Ironically, it was this persistence that became the opportunity for the disintegration of the Knights.
For Diarmuid, Finn is his lord whom he will always respect and be loyal to. Even if his ending is a tragedy, he does not regret taking this path.
There is no hatred, so Diarmuid loves Grania.
There was no resentment, and at the same time Diarmuid also understood Finn's anger.
However, if there is a chance to wield a gun as a knight again, and have a second life, and the master I once served is by my side -
……
The red light of the four red spears turned into a dragnet, falling towards Finn and Diarmuid.
He had heard intelligence before that Shiomi and Scathach teamed up to sneak into Washington, and even after being ambushed by Arjuna, they still severely damaged the Mad King and escaped unscathed.
Now Shiomi has returned to the battlefield, and the Mad King is still receiving treatment from the Holy Grail.
What an opponent this is.
Diarmuid, who had experienced countless battlefields, knew very well that the relationship between this master and disciple was not just about simple love. That was why their attacks were endless like a tide, forcing him and Finn to defend themselves, unable to find a loophole to launch a counterattack.
However, the so-called dilemma is just a dilemma.
This is the case for Diarmuid.
The same is true for Finn.
What's more important is that on such a dangerous battlefield, I can fight side by side with my former companions again.
Scathach didn't even need to signal with her eyes to deflect Diarmuid's sword. Shiomi's spear was like the most ferocious poisonous tongue in the jungle, taking a winding route and going straight for the throat of the Brilliant Knight.
Missed!
Diarmuid was greatly shocked.
But Finn's gun came out in time, and at the cost of being shot by Scathach, he blocked Shiomi's fatal blow, and the two stalemates were separated again.
"Did you notice?" Scathach asked in a low voice.
"Well...their coordination is actually improving..." Xijian swung the red gun.
I thought that there would be some grudges between the master and servant who were finally alienated from each other after they were given a second life, but it seems that I had miscalculated. They happened to have the same wish in their hearts, so they were able to go a step further.
"Thank you very much, my lord." Diarmuid said guiltily as he looked at Finn's injured arm.
Finn, however, didn't care and raised his arm to signal, "If we continue to be dragged down by hand-to-hand combat, it will be disadvantageous to us. It's time to activate the Noble Phantasm!"
"Yes!" Diarmuid nodded.
"After activating the Noble Phantasm, I will be unable to move. The master and disciple will definitely not miss this opportunity--" Finn said.
"Understood! I will stop them even if it costs my life!" Diarmuid responded decisively.
Finn showed a gratified expression, and his magic power gradually increased.
"It's a treasure. Even if you throw the red spear now, Diarmuid will block it with all his strength. Use rune magic to resist it." Scathach prepared to perform magic.
Behind the master and disciple are friendly troops. If they try to avoid the attack of the Noble Phantasm here, Finn's Noble Phantasm will surely sweep away those mechanical soldiers and ordinary soldiers and tear apart the southern front.
"Resist? No, it should be confront!" After putting away the red spear, Xi Jian took out the magic wand.
Scathach saw the wand again and resisted the urge to ask.
How did his beloved disciple obtain it, which was made from a part of the World Tree?
Of course, what surprised Scathach even more was yet to come.
Shiomi's magic power also rose to the same level as Finn's, which surprised Finn, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot. He took half a step forward and released the magic power stored in the gun.
"Experience the feeling of a demonic strike that can kill even fallen gods... 'Unbeatable Purple Grass'!"
“This is my fantasy, my expectation, my path ahead. My destiny as both a human and a non-human. ‘Reaching the Ultimate Fantasy’!”
Finn's Noble Phantasm, accompanied by the power of Nuada, the god of war who controls "flowing water", turned into a torrent that swept across the battlefield and collided with the bombardment released by Shiomi's magic wand.
Is it also a treasure?
Finn and Diarmuid were both surprised.
But Scathach knew very well that this was just a hypothetical treasure, named so after the magic of the original runes touched the ultimate fantasy of mankind.
Noble Phantasm, this noble fantasy of mankind called "Noble Phantasm".
So, while Shiomi and Finn's Noble Phantasms were in stalemate, Scathach and Diarmuid came to the same conclusion based on their respective intuitions.
Take advantage of the moment when both parties are unable to move and knock down the other party.
"The line between life and death is right here—"
Diarmuid jumped high into the air and released the magic sword in his hand.
This is the most powerful of all his weapons. It can kill with one strike and win with the first hit.
Drawing out the sword will bring certain victory to Diarmuid and bring defeat and death to his enemy.
It can be said to be a treasure that controls fate.
However, his Noble Phantasm was not the only one that could do this.
"My research! My unique skill! 'The Spear of Death Piercing'!"
"——『Angry Wave』!"
The treasure that met Diarmuid was Scathach's double guns.
If weapons have the same power to define cause and effect, the rest depends on the strength of each user.
Will win, will die.
Diarmuid was not afraid at all, but his sword could not move forward at all when it fell towards Scathach's face.
He was pinned to space by the first gun.
Then, Diarmuid remembered the description of the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows' unique skills in the story of the Princess of Light that he had heard since he was a child.
“It’s so wonderful…!”
