Morgan saw the problem and immediately raised his hand. A magic trick quickly took shape and unfolded above Caster's head, quickly launching an attack.
However, this magic bombardment was blocked by the sea demon's tentacles. Although a small gap was left, it regenerated in the blink of an eye and swallowed Caster.
"Now let us raise the banner of salvation again! Gather the abandoned people, gather the oppressed people. Let me lead you! Let me rule you! The resentment in the hearts of us who have been bullied will surely reach the ears of heaven! Oh, Lord in heaven! I will praise you in the form of punishment!"
Caster's sharp voice pierced through the thick fog and echoed throughout the entire river.
The surging water began to push him upwards, and the number of sea monsters under his feet increased in number. Considering the depth of the water in Weiyuan River, just imagining their number was terrifying enough.
"It's too late. I wanted to kill Caster before he was surrounded by the sea monsters." Morgan put down his hand and sighed softly. "Now, I'm afraid there is no way to stop him from completing this evil summoning magic."
Shiomi turned around and glanced at both sides of the river. The commotion created by Caster had already woken up the citizens living near the riverbank. Every household turned on the lights, and soon Caster's actions would be discovered by ordinary people who had nothing to do with it.
"Morgan!" Shiomi rarely spoke loudly to Morgan. He realized that this was not appropriate, so he lowered his voice again, "Can you please--"
"As you wish, my husband." Morgan's voice was as light as inorganic and extremely gentle.
Before Shiomi could finish her request, the fog on the Miyuan River became thicker and thicker, and now even Altria could no longer see where Caster was.
But the shadow of the huge monster that was gradually rising from the water and about to soar into the sky was still clearly visible.
This is what Shiomi wanted to ask for, to control the situation to a point where irrelevant people cannot detect it before it deteriorates further and is exposed.
For Morgan, creating a thick fog that isolates cognition is just a matter of raising his hand.
"Thank you." Shiomi said solemnly.
"You are that kind of man. You always act like you only care about the people and things around you, but in fact your ambitions are so big that the world may not be able to accommodate them." Morgan suddenly put his hand on Xijian's cheek as if no one was around.
After stroking it gently for a few times, Morgan took his hand away, summoned his weapon and held it in his hand, and his clothes changed into a fighting posture again.
This time, Shiomi stretched out her hand in front of her and said, "Lend it to me."
"Oh?" Morgan didn't hand it over immediately.
"Aren't you the queen? Since you are the king, then you should just stay behind and don't always think about leading the army yourself." Shiomi said, "Leave the front line to me."
"In that case, I look forward to your victory." Morgan handed the weapon to Shiomi, "If the situation changes, we'll talk about it then."
Shiomi held up the magic spear, "Caster mentioned the Master just now... If this is his Master's order, the other party may be nearby."
"It's still the same old rules. You deal with the Servants and I deal with the Masters." Morgan nodded in understanding.
As soon as the two finished discussing, Altria, dressed in military uniform, rushed over and said, "The alliance is not over yet. In this case, please allow me to go to the battlefield with you, Shiomi."
"You're not the only one going to the battlefield together." As Shiomi said this, the Conqueror King's ox cart also landed on the shore.
The King of Conquerors was confused. "What happened? Why is there suddenly a thick fog on the river? Is that also Caster's doing?"
"It's just some means to isolate ordinary people." Shiomi said, "King of Conquerors, can you join forces with me and the King of Knights to defeat Caster together?"
Iskandar grinned, looking quite excited. "Wow, it's great to be on the battlefield with a warrior like you. Very good! Let me personally experience your strength on the battlefield!"
After saying that, he looked at the two of them again, "But if the two of you also ride on my Noble Phantasm, you won't be able to exert your full combat power, right?"
"There's no need. I've been blessed by the elves in the lake and can walk freely on the water." Altria smiled calmly and refused.
Shiomi wrote a rune in the air, "I'm almost the same. With the rune of water avoidance and flight, I can move freely as well."
"That's great! Hey, kid, wait on the shore." Iskandar put Weber down from the ox cart. "Contact me if there's anything."
"Got it." Weber agreed.
Then, Shiomi looked at Morgan deeply, turned around and jumped, running into the thick fog on the river with the King of Knights and the King of Conquerors.
Chapter 50: Bloody Battle of Weiyuan River
The Weiyuan River, which is more than ten to twenty meters deep, has now become a huge water tank with running water.
The monsters raised in this strange tank are giant monsters summoned by Caster.
Rushing from the shore to the river, the vision that had been obscured by the thick fog created by Morgan's magic became clear again.
Only then did Altria realize how much the sea demon had multiplied. She swung her sword hard and cut off the tentacles in front of her that were two or three people wide.
But the tentacles began to regenerate on their own the moment they were cut off, and other tentacles around them were attracted by the attack and quickly gathered around, forcing her to evacuate every time she cut off a tentacle.
Unlike the offensive and defensive battle in the forest last night, there was indeed only one sea monster in the Weiyuan River, but its countless tentacles were far more troublesome than those dozens of small sea monsters.
“Saber! Back off!”
Shiomi's voice came, and Altria jumped out of the water, avoiding the tentacles that were about to wrap around her in the next second. After a nimble somersault in the air, she landed on Shiomi's side.
Without Altria asking, the water surface quickly solidified into ice after Shiomi tapped it lightly with the end of the magic spear, extending towards the direction of the sea demon.
The tentacles that were originally wriggling and waving wildly gradually became slow and were frozen in the blink of an eye.
"Has the operation been sealed?"
Iskandar's bullock cart stopped in mid-air.
He did not watch the show in the air, but used a bull cart to repeatedly attack the group of tentacles. However, his means of attack were limited. Whether it was lightning or weapons, they could only cause very small amounts of damage.
"Now is not the time for you to be sentimental, King of Conquerors!" Xijian raised his hand, and a strong wind suddenly blew up on the river.
The two Servants quickly understood Shiomi's plan.
First use great magic to freeze the sea monster's movements, and then use other methods to cut off the sea monster and its tentacles.
"Then I will take the lead! You two, don't get my chariot involved!"
Iskandar laughed and drove the ox cart along the frozen river towards the sea monster, tearing apart the ice and sea monsters along the way.
But it's just a straight line, and a larger range attack is needed.
Artoria on the side was already prepared.
Without any warning, Shiomi's warrior instinct made him attack at the same time as her.
"Strike Air!"
"Vacuum Wave."
A strong wind strong enough to tear a person apart swept across the Weiyuan River, and as Iskandar's ox cart flew into the sky, it swept up all the other frozen sea monsters and crushed them.
But even so, the thick fog on the river was not affected and there was no sign of it being dissipated.
The attack, which condensed a considerable amount of magical power, naturally caused a frenzy that affected both sides of the Weiyuan River.
Waver and Irisviel, who stayed on the shore to observe the battle, immediately realized that the wind pressure was about to hit them, and instinctively raised their arms to resist, but after closing their eyes for a long time, they only heard the sound of the wind passing by on both sides, and no other impact.
After opening their eyes, they could see clearly that the strong wind was blocked by Morgan and bypassed the place where they were.
And Morgan didn't even lift a finger.
"That's not enough," Morgan said calmly.
As soon as she finished speaking, the tentacles that sank into the water along with the ice began to grow wildly as if they had their own lives, breaking through the water surface and creating waves several meters high.
"That guy! Is he immortal?" Weber exclaimed in surprise, holding his head and stamping his feet anxiously.
A battle of this scale was beyond the capability of a rookie magician like him to intervene.
He even envied Shiomi a little for being able to fight alongside those heroic spirits.
"The thick fog in this area was created by you, Your Majesty the Witch of Britain." An elegant male voice sounded from the side.
A man in a dark red suit, holding a jeweled wand, walked towards them.
“You are——” Irisviel recognized.
Morgan glanced at him and said, "You are Sakura's father, the Master of the King of Heroes, Tōsaka Tokiomi?"
“I am not suitable to be called Sakura’s father right now.” Tokiomi smiled apologetically, “Her father is fighting on the Miyuan River.”
"Can't you let your servant do something?" Morgan asked calmly.
Tokiomi smiled bitterly, "The King of Heroes has his own considerations."
As he spoke, he looked up at the sky. Through the thick fog, Waver and Ellie could vaguely see a golden aircraft, which seemed to be a treasure made of gold and emeralds.
"Really?" Morgan didn't care. She turned and walked to the other side of the river bank. "The thick fog will soon spread to the whole of Fuyuki. Then, the people from the Holy Church and the Magic Association won't have to worry about covering up the facts."
“As the manager of the Fuyuki land, I am grateful.” Tokiomi bowed, “But, I don’t know what the witch wants to do at this moment——”
Morgan stopped and said, "That low-ranking magician servant said that it was his Master who wanted him to do this. How could an outsider who doesn't even know what the Holy Grail War is know how to use Command Spells to command Servants?"
The implication is that there must be someone behind the scenes, intending to interfere when the Holy Grail War begins to intensify.
“Then please allow me to accompany you as the head of one of the three major families in the Holy Grail War.” Tokiomi hurriedly made the request.
If Morgan later kills Caster's Master, then the credit for defeating Caster will largely go to the Berserker camp.
At this point, Tokiomi was still thinking about getting a piece of the pie as legitimately as possible.
"That's not necessary. No matter what kind of help the magicians of this era want to give, they will only be a burden to me." Morgan refused coldly, and then turned around and added, "Of course, if you think you can be as capable as my husband, that's another matter."
After saying this, Morgan's figure disappeared into the thick fog.
When the three masters came to their senses, they found that the visibility on both sides of the Weiyuan River had become shockingly low.
Even if he used all his magic to assist his vision, he could only barely see Shiomi and the two servants fighting among the repeatedly regenerating sea monsters.
“Ah, that’s why I’m talking about these heroes of the past…” Tokiomi sighed to himself.
Although Waver and Irisviel were wary of him to varying degrees, he had no intention of starting a fight here.
"Please rest assured, the main event right now is to defeat the Caster camp that has ignored the rules of the Holy Grail War and abandoned its secretiveness. I will not be an enemy of you two."
"That couldn't be better." Irisviel responded seriously, "We don't intend to fight secretly at this time."
Chapter 51: The lingering ghost
Ryunosuke Uesugi didn't know what the Holy Grail War was. He only knew that the blue-bearded man who called himself Caster, whom he had just summoned a few days ago, had an "artistic aesthetic" that was beyond his understanding.
Just follow that master and you will be able to enjoy cool art and stunning views that you have never seen before.
Lying on the bridge over the Mion River, Ryunosuke grabbed the railing and was so excited that he had already raised the flag. He loudly expressed his praises to Master Bluebeard.
He no longer cared about the destruction of his workshop some time ago.
In fact, he had begun to forget how he got here, and how he used the Command Seal to order Caster to perform this kind of magic.
He didn't even understand Caster's words, "If it's my Master, my dear friend who asks for it, I, Gilles de Ray, will never refuse."
“Ah…ah…”
Ryunosuke began to wonder if he was too excited and lacked oxygen, which caused his thinking to become slow and only supreme happiness filled his body.
Then, the crisp sound of high heels walking by rang in my ears.
Confused, Ryunosuke turned around and noticed that before he knew it, there was a thick fog everywhere, and even the huge sea monster was shrouded in it, so that only the outline could be seen.
There was no one else around and no cars were passing on the bridge.
It was so quiet all around.
Then how did I see those scenes just now?
"I say, do you know what's going on? It's suddenly foggy here."
Looking at the silver-haired woman walking out of the fog, Ryunosuke didn't even pay attention to that beautiful face, thinking about how to get pain and despair from it, but just asked stupidly.
"Are you Caster's Master?" Morgan ignored Ryunosuke's question.
Ryunosuke was very dissatisfied and staggered towards Morgan, "I said, did you hear me? Why is it foggy here?"
He reached out to grab Morgan and question him.
But before he could get close enough to touch him, he flew backwards and fell to the ground.
"It hurts..."
Ryunosuke raised his head and the world was spinning. Although it was a winter night, he felt warmer than ever.
Something bright red filled his vision, and Ryunosuke fell to the ground helplessly, "It's so warm..."
Morgan just stood there, looking coldly at Ryunosuke Uryuu, whose limbs were cut off and a pool of blood was beneath him.
"After my limbs were cut off, I only felt the pain of falling to the ground, and the strength to survive." Morgan said to himself, "I have warned you once, Mushi-shi. Do you really think that you can do whatever you want just because you live long enough?"
As the words rang out, a dark blue flame suddenly rose up, sweeping across the sidewalk on the side of the Weiyuan River Bridge.
Ryunosuke Uesugi's body swelled, and at the moment when the winged blade insect was about to break out of his body, both he and his body began to burn.
