Or, why don’t you find another savior?

And under the light of those light bands, countless burning points of light fell rapidly.

It may seem insignificant at the moment, but it cannot be easily ignored.

Mordred finally understood what covering fire meant. She raised her sword and signaled the vanguard cavalry to slow down.

Gawain, who had originally drawn his holy sword, was ready to release the True Name of his Noble Phantasm to counter Mordred's first attack, but at this moment he was inexplicably shocked.

Gawain had never seen magic that could summon meteorites from the universe before.

Was that Morgan's trick, too?

In any case, conflict is imminent, and if nothing is done, the Holy City will inevitably suffer great damage.

Not to mention that I had come to the city gate specifically to meet them in action.

As the first line of defense of the Lion King, Gawain, who received the blessing of "Never Night", must not be helpless in fighting back. He bent down and hid the long sword at his side, with the tip of the sword slightly pointing upwards.

As the sister holy sword of the "Sword of Promised Victory", it gathers the light of the sun, unlike the other sword that gathers the light of the stars.

Unlike the "Sword of Promised Victory" which can break through the city with one point, the "Sword of Wheel of Victory" is a horizontal radial type used to wipe out approaching enemy troops. It is perfect for defending the main gate of the holy city.

Now, Gawain has to release his True Name, the Noble Phantasm, to block the meteorite that is about to fall overhead.

As long as you draw the sword and infuse it with magic power, the pseudo-sun inside the sword will be able to operate and extend to the visible range.

"This sword is the embodiment of the sun, another holy sword, the sun flame that burns all impurities. 'Sword of the Wheel of Victory'!"

Gawain used all his strength to extend the sword to the length as far as he could see. His holy sword swept across the sky in front of the holy city. A large number of meteorites collided with the power of the Holy Sword of the Sun halfway, causing a series of explosions.

But even so, Olga Marie's magic targets the entire Holy City, and even Gawain's holy sword cannot wipe it out.

The damage to the main gate was avoided thanks to Gawain's heroic efforts, but explosions were still heard from all over the Holy City.

The flawless city of chalk was scarred at this moment.

"It is unforgivable. Anyone who defiles my thousand-year kingdom will be punished by me—"

Gawain was heartbroken, and the last bit of hesitation in his heart disappeared. Even if these soldiers were survivors of the singularity, they had to be annihilated here and not allowed to touch the gate of the holy city.

"Don't talk about those great principles on the battlefield, ape! 'Rebellion against my magnificent father'!"

Mordred swung the Noble Phantasm that had released its True Name, and dropped from above, aiming at the part where Gawain's neck connected to his body and slashed it.

"Sir Mordred, are you still going to betray the king after all this?" Gawain immediately released his Noble Phantasm's True Name for the second time.

Although the power was greatly reduced, it was at least able to resist Mordred's attack and avoid being defeated due to a flaw.

“Stop pretending to be so righteous! Gawain! You and I both know why you followed your father and what you did in this singularity!” Mordred’s expression became ferocious and resolute. “I will settle the sins of the Knights of the Round Table!”

"If we talk about sin, aren't you the same?"

"I will accept the punishment! But only after destroying Camelot!"

Where the swords intersected, magical power spread like a tsunami.

Chapter 59: The Heart of Breaking the City

While Mordred was holding Gawain back, the siege began.

The refugees, the mountain people, and the upright knights who obeyed Mordred broke through the defense line and came to the city wall, where they began to build ladders and attack the walls of Camelot.

"Foolish, the sun is shining now! Sir Mordred, even you can't stop me!"

Just as Gawain had said, he was carrying the number of a saint, and at the moment when the siege broke out, his overall abilities were enhanced.

The opposing swords were pressed back towards Mordred little by little. Even with the help of magic power, in the pure strength contest, she was still dominated by Gawain.

"Do you really have the time to keep us here, Gawain?"

Despite this, Mordred did not show any sign of trouble, but instead questioned Gawain with a sly smile.

“Gao Wenqing! The third team on the right wing requests reinforcements! The enemy’s leader is a woman holding a scarlet spear! She is killing our soldiers and horses!”

"Gao Wenqing! The first team on the left wing is in a tough fight and is in danger of being defeated!"

On the intertwined battlefield, Camelot's soldiers resisted the attack while reporting the situation here to Gawain.

"The first team? Impossible! They are all elites selected from various levels! Who on earth are they?"

Gao Wen, who still had some strength left, also showed a surprised expression.

"It's Morgan! It's the Demon Concubine Morgan!" the messenger soldier reported hastily.

The battle situation took a turn for the worse, and Gawain began to have a headache.

In order to prevent the enemy from launching an attack on the city, he led half of the soldiers defending the city out of the city to personally fight back. This tactic was a taboo in military strategy.

It was simply that Gawain, holding the holy sword, was confident that he could wipe out the enemy's vanguard.

But he accidentally overlooked one question, which is what trump card the army formed by Morgan has.

Except for Morgan and Scathach, and Shiomi who had been captured for several days, Camelot actually knew nothing about the fighting power of other Chaldean people.

That's why, at the beginning of the battle, they were hit hard by the celestial magic, causing the troops outside the city led by Gawain to suffer heavy losses, and the second and fourth teams were close to being destroyed.

Fortunately, these soldiers were very special. After their team was destroyed, they did not retreat, but quickly integrated into other nearby teams and continued to defend against the enemy's attacks.

What's worse is that at this moment, trees began to grow on the flat land outside the city, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, blocking the heads of the attacking soldiers.

As a result, most of the arrows shot by the soldiers in the arrow towers on the city walls were blocked by the lush and wildly growing trees, and could not hit the enemy troops climbing up the ladders to attack the city walls.

Even at the foot of the city wall, trees began to grow close to the wall.

The same magic as the "Holy Punishment"!

Gao Wen, who still remembered the chaos of that day, frowned deeply.

Although it was called magic, these trees actually existed. It took Gawain a lot of effort to tidy up the land outside the main gate, uproot the trees, and clean up the soil.

But being able to allow life to flourish in this white land, Gawain began to understand why the Lion King captured Shiomi.

"It's just some wood!"

The pseudo-sun in the holy sword started to work again, and the sword body was wrapped in flames comparable to the sun's brilliance and extended out. The scorching temperature forced Mordred to retreat.

He struck with a blow filled with the power of the sun, and wherever the sword touched, the trees burned.

However, his sword stopped midway.

Another knight rushed out and blocked his sword. It was Bedivere.

Mordred, who was about to rush forward to continue fighting with Gawain, was stunned: "What are you doing! Top student! I am enough to deal with this gorilla! Go into the city and do your business!"

"Not only Mordred, but even a knight like you who is trusted by the king has been defected to Morgan..." Gawain's eyes showed a hint of anger.

"I didn't surrender to Morgan. I just wanted to return to Camelot, defeat you, defeat the Lion King, and correct the mistakes of this land!" Bedivere held the sword with all his strength, but Gawain was able to hold the sword with one hand to resist. "This is my mission! In order to accomplish it, no matter if it's Morgan or the humble king, I will borrow this power!"

Gawain frowned even deeper. The flames could not burn as fast as the trees grew. The sunlight was blocked by the branches and leaves, leaving only mottled spots of light.

This was not enough to undermine his strength; the problem lay with the sphinx that flew overhead.

After the feint attack at the side gate was detected, Camelot's soldiers began to defend, so Nitocris immediately ordered the beast master to detach a special force and rush to the main gate to assist in the siege.

The Sphinx easily broke through the defense line and rushed straight to the city gate.

"Tsk..." Mordred was secretly shocked.

"You should also know that no one can enter the city without the Lion King's permission."

This was exactly the reason why Gawain could continue to fight with his two colleagues here without worrying about the city gate that the Sphinx intended to break through from the front.

This is also the second reason why Gao Wen could ignore the taboo of military strategists and go out of the city to meet the enemy.

The impenetrable city gate allowed him to fight without any worries.

On the low slope behind the army, Shiomi was watching the increasingly stalemate battle situation.

Trees were allowed to grow on the battlefield to interfere with the attacks of Camelot's soldiers and to cover the Allied Forces' siege. More Austere Knights were jumping down from the city walls to join the battle.

Unlike the soldiers currently engaged in battle, the Knights of Rectification were more powerful, and their own casualties were beginning to mount.

"If you need any assistance, just ask, Master from Chaldea."

An unfathomable voice sounded nearby, approaching silently again. Every time, Shiomi could only feel the concept of death approaching.

"The battle outside the city is in our favor. Camelot is now using the tactic of adding fuel to the fire to allow more powerful Knights of the Righteous to enter the battlefield. It won't be long before only Chaldea and those divine beasts will be left on the battlefield." Shiomi clenched his fist towards the city gate. "But I won't ask you to help, Old Man of the Mountain, because you don't belong to any side, and the future should be in the hands of humans."

"You are the power that controls life, yet you still consider yourself a human being. You are worthy of praise for not wanting to lose your human heart."

The figure of the old man in the mountain disappeared with these words, and a sandstorm that covered the sky and the sun suddenly arose, covering the battlefield outside Camelot.

Not understanding what the old man was looking at, Xi Jian shook his head. He whispered to the empty surroundings, thanked the other party for his help, and rushed out.

Mordred had said that the gates could not be opened.

Therefore, a siege tactic was developed, attacking the city from the city wall and looking for a way to open the gate from the inside.

However, although the attacking soldiers occupied the arrow towers on the city walls, they were also surrounded. The blood of the dead and wounded flowed along the outer walls of the Chalk City, dyeing the top of the city red.

Shiomi rushed through the battlefield like a gust of wind, ran over the tops of the trees that had stopped growing, and landed in front of the city gate.

Standing so formally before the city wall, he was surprised to find that he understood the reason.

The city gate itself is a kind of conceptual defense, similar to Morgan's "Court of the Innocence" in a sense, and only good people can pass through.

"Your soul is never tarnished, nor disturbed by the evils of the world. You have never lost your pure soul since the day you were born. As expected, you are very qualified."

The words that the Lion King said when he judged him when they first met were still ringing in his ears.

That was the standard for "Saint Ba". Among the thousands of refugees, only three people met this standard.

Shiomi couldn't understand why she met this condition.

He is just doing what he wants to do, what he thinks is right and what he will not regret in the future.

Without a past, he took the Shadow Kingdom as his starting point. Along the way, Xi Jian believed that he had a clear conscience, but he did not think he had reached the point described by the Lion King.

It has nothing to do with good or evil, right or wrong.

I have come all the way here to save the future of mankind.

But it was more out of selfishness, for the world where Sakura, Kallen and Gray still live, so that they can continue to welcome tomorrow.

A tiny wish of an immature adult.

"This is my fantasy, my expectation, my future, my destiny as both a human and a non-human—"

Using Gungnir as a staff, Shiomi slowly spoke towards the city gate.

“——『Reaching the Ultimate Fantasy』!”

As the true name was revealed, the city gate that the Sphinx could not destroy at all collapsed.

Chapter 60: The Battle in Camelot

The fall of Camelot's gate inspired the soldiers on the battlefield. They had already begun to despair, but they were encouraged by this victory and cheered as they rushed into the city gate.

After entering the city, the soldiers of the Allied Forces naturally divided into three groups according to the pre-planned tactics and attacked the city in dispersed directions.

"Well done, my beloved disciple." Scathach landed next to Shiomi, and the soldiers passed quickly on both sides of him.

Morgan also rushed over: "Gawain's troops outside the city have been almost cleared out, and Gawain's figure has disappeared in the sandstorm. Arash is leading the siege soldiers to capture the commanding heights of the city one by one, and the rest of the soldiers are following Ying and the others towards the city gate—"

As she was calmly explaining the situation, a two-meter-long halberd flew over and aimed at Morgan.

The weapon was naturally blocked by Shiomi's ice magic, but it also interrupted Morgan's words.

She raised her displeased eyes and scanned the front.

Many soldiers who were marching towards the center suffered casualties, and they were stopped by a group of black solemn knights.

"Aggguiwen's berserk righteous knight—" Shiomi frowned slightly, "It seems that entering the city is just the first step. It won't be that easy to see the Lion King."

"Then let me open a path to the throne of Altria for my husband." Morgan raised his hand and fired the magic spear the moment it took shape.

The berserk Knight who tried to resist was pierced through, and the magic spear exploded in the middle of the crowd.

Although many were knocked away, it was still a drop in the bucket compared to the remaining number.

Endless soldiers continued to charge out from all parts of the city, and the long steps leading to the royal city were filled with solemn knights holding various weapons.

Shiomi no longer wanted to continue counting the number, as he had already guessed that the number of people in the joint forces was simply not enough.

The Lion King, who holds the power of the tower, can continuously create these tireless soldiers who only know how to fight.
