Master of Noble Phantasm Outsider

This is most likely not magic that is used immediately. It was prepared before the battle began. It could be a magic item or a delayed release of magic.

Damon West, a plain-looking man, is a master of stealth, but assisting Heroic Spirits on the spot is not his strong point.

But even so, if we have time to prepare, we can still accomplish many things.

This time, Jean II could not avoid it.

However, Jean II, who was shot in the back, did not suffer serious injuries.

This was because his Master used multiple magical defenses at the critical moment.

At the critical moment, Jean II's body lit up with multiple complex magical auras, offsetting the hero Mordred's crucial initial attack.

: The attack of the Heroic Spirit holding the Noble Phantasm easily broke through all the defensive magic, but the power was inevitably weakened, and it provided Jean II with enough time to react.

Although Errang II was still hit and injured, the damage was greatly reduced, and he was not knocked off his horse. He did not lose the mobility of the cavalry and successfully moved away from the opponent at the fastest speed.

⒐Next, Jean II continued to steadily restore his original tactics, sending out the phantom cavalry he summoned to continuously block the opponent's approach and consume its strength.

４During this period, the Masters of both sides also provided support to the Heroic Spirits at certain times.

However, the masters on both sides are very clear that magic of insufficient level, whether it is attack or buff type, will hardly have an effect on powerful Heroic Spirits, so these aids are targeted and will not be used frequently.

Time just passes slowly, little by little.

3. In this tug-of-war of mutual consumption, the final moment finally arrived.

Feeling that he had consumed a certain amount of his opponent's strength, Jean II finally launched an active offensive.

㈥Jean II called on all the Phantom Cavalry, then gathered their strength and launched a full-scale charge towards the enemy.

Jean II, who was in the cavalry, suddenly had a large white flag in his hand.

The large flag with a cross pattern radiated a holy light, which fell on the cavalry, enhancing the speed and strength of the Heroic Spirits and Phantom Cavalry.

Obviously, this big flag was the second treasure that Jean II had not used before.

Facing the enemy's attack, the heroic spirit Mordred did not choose to retreat or defend, but he attacked fiercely.

He released the power of the weapons in his hands, and then took the initiative to meet the enemy cavalry charge.

That seemed like a foolish tactic.

However, at the moment when the two sides collided, it was the heroic spirit Mordred who single-handedly broke through the Phantom Cavalry team blessed with a treasure.

Mordred came to Jean II with unabated momentum.

Jean II's surprise was obvious.

He has discovered the problem.

However, it was too late to say anything now, there was only one thing he could do.

That is to raise the treasure weapon in your hand and have a final direct collision with the opponent who is close at hand!

The power of both sides' Noble Phantasms was extremely restrained; even the force of their collision did not spread excessively; their respective powers were all used solely to defeat their opponents who were also Heroic Spirits.

The end result was that Mordred lost one of his arms.

As for Jean II, his soul core was shattered by the spear in Mordred's hand.

At this point, the outcome of this war of heroes has been decided.

"Jean II's second Noble Phantasm, which he holds as his trump card, looks like the banner of the Saint Jeanne d'Arc. It comes from the blessing and blessing of God, which is the increase in the level of the Noble Phantasm."

Lux happily analyzed the final battle between the two heroic spirits.

"Under the power of the sacred banner, those not-so-strong phantom cavalrymen can barely reach the level of Heroic Spirits in a short period of time. In other words, they can become an indestructible and invincible Heroic Spirit cavalry. This is a very strong trump card. Unfortunately, he is facing the rebellious knight Mordred."

"Mordred also has a trump card. He also has a second treasure."

Conan-san naturally knew what was going on.

Mordred did not hide his abilities and treasures from the Master and the Magic Advisory Committee.

"Mordred's second Noble Phantasm can cause the opponent's Noble Phantasm to 'rebel', and then become his own power in the next short period of time... The power of the Noble Phantasm banner used by Jean II for the decisive battle actually became Mordred's help at the last moment."

It was with this rebellious second Noble Phantasm that Mordred defeated the elven hero who had previously been his rival.

If the battle situation at that time had not been obstructed by the elf forest, then one could clearly see how the arrows released by the elf hero betrayed their master and turned around to attack the elf hero.

Mordred took advantage of this precious opportunity to kill the elven hero.

Moreover, since the elf hero withdrew directly, he was unable to tell the Master about the situation of the battle, and the Ministry of Magic was also unaware of the true identity of Mordred's second treasure that he used to win the battle.

If the Ministry of Magic had been prepared, today's battle would not have been like this, and Jean II would have been more cautious in using his trump card.

"刺〕蝟4 fold, ☆Purchase: 9偲‰ "哵〔⒉→×⑷÷san参"婈≠悟〕☆It's over like this..."

Seeing that the dust on the battlefield was gradually settling down and only the last heroic spirit was left, Conan-san began to get a little nervous.

"Okay, now comes the most important step, completing the entire Heroic War ritual and fulfilling the final wish..."

076 Wishing Moment

3. Yiyi Yiyi III

The battle between the Heroic Spirits has ended, but the real highlight, making a wish to the core of the ritual of the War of Heroes, is about to begin.

The final winner of this official Heroic War, Damon West, the second generation Dark Lord's deputy, did not waste time to rest after defeating his acquaintances from the Ministry of Magic. He immediately used the last stroke of the Command Spell in his hand to summon the core of the Heroic War and then made a wish to it.

After a fierce battle, the Heroic Spirit Mordred stood beside his Master with a tired but satisfied look on his face. Through his own Heroic Spirit Base, he assisted his Master in communicating with the core of the Heroic War.

"The rebellious knights seem to be fine. This Heroic War should be able to end successfully."

Conan-san subconsciously spoke out his thoughts, but he regretted it the next second.

He shouldn't have said something like this that was basically a flag-raising remark before everything was really settled.

"It's good for everyone if it can be successfully concluded. However, my people won the Heroic War here. The Ministry of Magic will probably be a little dissatisfied, but it doesn't matter. They won't do anything. As long as we can find the aliens, it's good enough."

The second generation Dark Lord Lux ​​Kristo beside Conan Shan was smiling happily.

"Ah, Ke, look, the meteor fragments are coming out."

Conan-san naturally also saw the emergence of the core of this War of Heroes at the same time.

Under the call of the victor of the War of Heroes, the core of the War of Heroes slowly emerged from the ground according to the ritual procedures.

The jagged star fragments that looked like ordinary rock fragments radiated a mysterious starlight.

It was the magical meteor light that could fulfill wishes, a light of conceptual wish.

Damon, who was considered ugly in appearance, calmly glanced at the heroic spirit beside him.

The Heroic Spirit known as the Knight of Betrayal smiled and nodded.

Damon understood the Heroic Spirit's thoughts and attitude, and without any hesitation, he slowly stretched out his right hand, where the Command Spell was, towards the core of the wish.

He began to communicate with the ritual furnace in front of him, which contained a huge amount of magical power.

He didn't need to actually touch the magic furnace. This thing was not something that could be touched casually. The heat of the magic contained in it was enough to evaporate anyone who touched it casually.

If it weren't controlled by a complete Heroic Spirit Ritual, when the fragments of this meteor appeared on the ground, it would be equivalent to the appearance of a second sun very close to the ground. This wilderness where the Heroic Spirit War took place might have suddenly become a scorched desert.

Damon knew very well that this Heroic War might fail, and there might even be an accident at this last critical moment.

There are many kinds of so-called accidents. It is possible that the entire ritual here fails and the wish cannot be fulfilled at all.

It is possible that the magic furnace was not stable enough and lost control, causing a shocking explosion.

It is also possible that the summoned heroic spirit breaks free from control and seizes the core of the ritual in order to fulfill its own wish.

Although Heroic Spirits are magical weapons of decisive battle, they are also independent individuals with their own thoughts. Even if they are born with the intention of protecting humanity and the world, they sometimes still make mistakes.

The so-called heroic spirits summoned in this world are not the reappearance of those heroic figures in history. They are just magical life entities artificially created by using human history and myths and legends through the great magic called summoning heroic spirits. To some extent, they can also be regarded as new life.

Although things might get worse and out of control if past heroes were really summoned, this is not possible with the summoning of heroic spirits in this world, so there is no need to worry too much about it here.

The Heroic Spirits who are summoned for the first time generally do not have extreme thoughts of betrayal, but they will still be influenced by their own history and legends, and may be born with a rebellious nature.

Because of this, when magicians summon heroes, they try to choose heroes with relatively positive historical records.

At this point, it is difficult to say that the heroic spirit Mordred is a so-called positive character.

Damon had only been with this heroic spirit for seven days, so he couldn't say that he was very familiar with him. Right now, this heroic spirit didn't seem to have any intention of taking over, but he was still secretly alert and vigilant.

After all, some heroes may not be able to accept it after knowing what kind of existence they are.

The summoned heroic spirit is, to a large extent, equivalent to a new life, but when the heroic spirit's mission and work are completed, it can no longer stay in the world.

However, the so-called return to Yingyi's throne itself has big problems.

The Throne of Heroes is not a place to preserve Heroic Spirits, nor is it a place for the Heroic Spirits to return to. It only records the data and information of Heroic Spirits.

In other words, returning to the Throne of Heroes after the summoning is almost equivalent to the disappearance and death of the Heroic Spirit, and is the disintegration of the Heroic Spirit.

Although one can leave one's own records and memories in the Throne of Heroes, and inherit these things when summoned again in the future, no one can say that the Heroic Spirit summoned before and after is the same person or the same existence.

Even if they inherited all the records and memories, had the same personality, and behaved in exactly the same way, whether they could be said to be the same Heroic Spirit was indeed a philosophical question.

Some heroes may not care. They are very open-minded and don't care at all.

But there are some heroes who cannot accept this.

Therefore, some Heroic Spirits will choose to betray at the last moment because they don't want their existence to be erased and then have everything inherited by an unknown so-called identical Heroic Spirit.

From the perspective of some heroes, the magicians who summoned these heroes without authorization and abandoned them after using them as tools are actually the so-called traitors.

Based on various considerations, sometimes when it is really necessary to summon a heroic spirit, the magician may choose to hide some facts about the heroic spirit, so as to prevent the heroic spirit from thinking too much and then causing uncontrollable accidents.

However, if the Heroic Spirit is able to detect the existence of itself and the problem with the Throne of Heroes, this well-intentioned concealment will become the spark of conflict.

The official War of Heroes held this time did not conceal any relevant information.

After the heroic spirits here are summoned, they possess complete knowledge about everything and they know exactly what kind of existence they are.

This was naturally set by the organizers of the War of Heroes here.

"It seems like there's no problem..."

Conanshan kept an eye on the wishing situation by monitoring the large screen in the command room.

The wish-making ceremony seems to be fine, but nothing can be certain until the wish actually comes true.

"If the Heroic Spirit Ceremony here lacks a bit of magic power, Mordred might have to sacrifice himself..."

The essence of the Heroic War is a ritual to achieve wishes through mutual slaughter.

This will not change even if only the final winning group remains.

Whether the Master sacrifices the Heroic Spirit, or the Heroic Spirit backstabs the Master, it is also part of the ritual and can contribute to the success of the entire ritual.

"There is only one wish that can be fulfilled in the Heroic War. If a Heroic Spirit wants to stay in the world, the fastest way is to kill his Master and then make a wish before disappearing... Mordred, are you really willing to just disappear like this?"

"That's not a problem. Heroic spirits are indeed magical beings that are not much different from humans, but they are not real humans. They are heroic spirits."9

Lux didn't seem to be worried at all about this most important wish-making moment.

"We'll just watch."4

"You really have faith..." 8

At this moment, Conan's new human sense exploded strongly.

The intuitive feedback that was almost like pain made Conan raise his head suddenly.

He did not know the magic of perspective, and his eyes could not penetrate the steel ceiling above his head and see what was happening in the sky.

But he knew something very bad was coming.

And, more than one. 5

"Ke! I leave this to you!"

Lux also discovered the problem as soon as possible.

The second generation Dark Lord's smile completely disappeared, and he left with a few words before teleporting away using magic.

It's not that he's irresponsible or wants to run away, it's just that he has other equally important things to deal with.

Before Conan-san could speak out to warn the XCOM members around him who were completely unaware of the coming crisis, the terrible thing arrived.

boom!

Something fell from the sky, like a cannonball, and hit the place where the winner of the War of Heroes was making a wish.

Then, the heaven and earth shook.
