The pure love of Cao Zei starts from Fate!

Ah Fu was completely confused and stammered, "Is that... Saber's Master? Is she really a Servant? How can she be so powerful? Where did she come from?"

The battle between Karna and Yaolan became more and more intense, and the fight was fierce.

Both of them were top-level servants, and their fight in the square inside the Sky Garden was simply a catastrophe that would destroy the world.

They activated all their treasures at the same time and blew up all the buildings inside the Sky Garden into ashes.

Zhong Xuan observed the battle situation and found that Yao Lan did not completely gain the upper hand, so he turned to Ah Fu and said, "You stay here to help, I'll go to the other side to check the situation."

"Uh??? They are so powerful, how can I help them?" Ah Fu was completely dumbfounded.

However, he could only hold his spurs tightly, standing there stupidly, watching the two men engage in a devastating battle with horror on his face, while trying to find an opportunity to intervene.

……

Zhong Xuan walked cautiously towards the interior of the sky garden.

At this moment, Semiramis appeared in front of him without warning.

Semiramis's cold face was full of disgust and contempt. She said to Zhong Xuan viciously, "You damned fellow...are you planning to sneak in and launch an attack?"

"Hahaha, this is so funny! Kotomine Shiro and I have a firm alliance, what do you think? Do you think you don't need me to fight against Ruler?" Zhong Xuan asked jokingly.

Hearing this, Semiramis was so angry that her chest heaved violently and trembled constantly, and her slender fingers involuntarily bit her lips tightly.

"Hmph, don't be so conceited! With a guy like Caster who has a sharp tongue around, why would we need someone like you?" Semiramis retorted angrily.

However, facing Semiramis's accusation, Zhong Xuan did not back down. Instead, he sneered and responded in a cold tone: "Haha, do you really think Kotomine Shiro knows nothing? If so, why did he agree to cooperate with me?"

"..." Semiramis' mind was naturally as clear as a mirror. She knew very well that although Caster had the ability to restrain Ruler, that was only limited to spiritual attacks.

If he wanted to completely render Ruler powerless, he would have to rely on this lecherous guy in front of him...

But...

After he successfully launches an attack on Ruler, next...

Hey hey hey.

Semiramis thought of this and immediately put on a polite and graceful look, stepped aside gracefully, and said with a sweet smile: "Please go in, Caster is inside, don't worry, I will lead Ruler to you~!"

Seeing this, Zhong Xuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile.

Hum~!

After I deal with Jeanne, I will immediately tear my face off with all of you guys, and then...

Let's see how you can maintain your high and mighty attitude.

"Hehehe~!" Semiramis covered her lips and chuckled.

"Hehehehe~!" Zhong Xuan covered his face with his hands and let out a strange laugh.

In this way, the two people with evil intentions temporarily reached a tacit understanding.

……

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Under the escort of Afu, Jeanne easily jumped from the plane to the Sky Garden.

Her progress was unusually smooth, with almost no obstacles.

Even if she occasionally encountered Assassin Semiramis, he would just smile and signal her to come in at will.

Joan of Arc was very confused by this strange treatment.

Finally, she came to an empty room.

Standing in the room was Shakespeare, who bowed respectfully to Joan of Arc.

"Ruler, I'm Caster Shakespeare, I've been waiting here for a long time~!" Shakespeare said with a smile.

Joan of Arc possesses the ability to [see through one's true name] and is well aware of Shakespeare's abilities, so she doesn't take him seriously at all.

"Has Amakusa Shiro Tokisada gone mad? He actually sent you to stop me?" Joan of Arc waved the flag in her hand with a look of contempt.

"Hehe, facing the Ruler who possesses absolute power, I am the most suitable candidate! Now, let us enjoy together the stage that I have spent many days carefully creating especially for you~!" Shakespeare unfolded his treasure with a smile.

-

Joan of Arc immediately felt a black screen before her eyes.

Chapter 178: Jeanne can’t stay calm when facing Jong Hyun…

Jeanne slowly opened her eyes.

I found myself back in that familiar little village.

The surrounding area is full of golden wheat, emitting a strong wheat aroma, and the whole village is filled with an ancient atmosphere.

"This is..." Joan of Arc widened her eyes, her face full of shock, and she was at a loss for a moment.

Thoughts raced through her mind, "Is this an illusion? Or is this Caster's Noble Phantasm?"

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared beside her.

Joan of Arc looked closely and found that it was her mother!

When her mother saw Joan of Arc, she burst into tears and wailed, "Why were you burned at the stake? Why did you have to suffer like this?"

"Why did you have to be laughed at for 18 years?"

Joan of Arc was a little confused. She originally felt that this place was very real, but her mother's words made her feel very out of place.

However, her mother immediately rushed over and hugged her tightly, begging her, "My child, didn't you set out because you received the Lord's revelation? Listen to your mother's advice, don't take risks again, and stay with me, okay?"

"No, mother, I must go. The people of France need me. They are in dire straits, waiting for me to save them. Moreover, what I am pursuing is not just to save this country, but a greater and more noble goal..." Joan of Arc answered firmly.

"Ahhh..." Her mother continued to cry, her voice full of despair and helplessness.

Jeanne looked around cautiously and asked, "Caster, are you satisfied with this?"

Shakespeare raised his lips, revealing a sly smile, and replied, "No, no, no, the exciting part is just about to begin! Next, please enjoy the performance of the second act!"

Before he finished speaking, the curtain of the stage was quickly drawn open, and the scene instantly switched to the fierce battlefield in Orleans.

"Wait, please don't kill me!" An actor playing a minor soldier wailed in horror, but in the blink of an eye he was ruthlessly killed by enemies played by other actors.

Joan of Arc stood quietly in the center of the battlefield, watching everything with cold eyes.

Her body was stained with blood, as if she had become accustomed to the cruelty and bloodiness of war.

Seeing this, Shakespeare smiled smugly and said jokingly, "Lady Saint, you are covered in blood!"

Jeanne responded expressionlessly: "No matter what you show me, the result will be the same. Since everyone, including myself, is covered in blood, how can I be afraid of the cruelty of the battlefield?"

Just then, something unexpected happened.

Shakespeare suddenly sat up in his general's uniform and said to Joan of Arc in a joking tone: "Well, I am now questioning you as the agent of Charles VII!"

Joan of Arc was frightened by his sudden "resurrection".

Then, Shakespeare suddenly appeared in the center of the stage, wearing a tattered battle robe stripped from an ordinary soldier nearby.

He said passionately: "You risked your life, went to the battlefield, stained your hands with blood, and saved France!"

"However, he was eventually burned at the stake. In the eyes of us, the later generations, that was undoubtedly betrayal, tragedy and despair!"

Shakespeare used a majestic and deep tone to control the audience and asked in unison: "Even so, do you still firmly believe in your faith?"

Joan of Arc answered without hesitation: "Of course!"

Her voice was firm and powerful, as if it could penetrate the barrier of time.

"My death is destined by fate. When I raise the flag in my hand, I am destined to give up the right to enjoy a comfortable life in my hometown!"

Seeing Joan of Arc so steadfast, Shakespeare frowned slightly and snapped his fingers.

The scene changed instantly, returning to the moment when Joan of Arc was walking on the street to the execution ground before her execution.

The people around her cursed at her, venting their anger and dissatisfaction.

"What a bad taste!" Joan of Arc cursed angrily as she looked at her tattered clothes.

At this time, the cavalryman riding a horse and leading Joan of Arc turned around and revealed Shakespeare's face.

With a playful smile on his face, he said softly, "Sorry, the prop master made a mistake with the costumes!"

"Huh?" Joan of Arc was suddenly confused.

"The real criminal is already on the execution ground!" Shakespeare said softly with a smile on his face.

Upon hearing this, Joan of Arc hurriedly looked forward.

——It turned out that Zhong Xuan was tied to the execution ground, his body shaking.

"What?!!" The moment Joan of Arc saw Jong Hyun, her inner rationality instantly collapsed.

"Let him go!!!"

She screamed hysterically and rushed towards Zhong Xuan desperately.

However, Shakespeare easily stopped her and said with a smile: "Oh, please don't disturb the actors' performance~!"

Then, there was a bang bang bang~!!!

The heretic executors threw their torches at Zhong Xuan.

In an instant, the raging fire engulfed Zhong Xuan's figure.

"Stop……!"

"Please stop, stop it!"

"Why...why don't you burn me to death, but burn him?"

Joan of Arc was extremely anxious and kept begging.

At this time, the inquisitor next to Joan of Arc turned around, still with Shakespeare's familiar smile on his face. He chuckled and said, "Oh, is this what you have done before?"

"What?" Joan of Arc was completely confused. She stared at Shakespeare in front of her with wide eyes, not understanding what he said at all.

"I'm sorry, but my treasure is built on the stage based on your memory~!" Shakespeare said with a smile.

"That is to say - the one who wants to kill him is not me, but you!!!"

"No!!!" Joan of Arc roared.

"I never thought about this kind of thing..."

I don’t know why, even though it’s just a simple mental attack, Joan of Arc can’t remain calm at this moment.

Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making it impossible for her to breathe.

Her eyes were always fixed on Zhong Xuan, watching him struggle in pain in the raging fire and eventually being burned to ashes.

Joan of Arc's face was filled with despair and helplessness, her body trembled uncontrollably, and tears blurred her eyes.

She tried to reach out and grab Zhong Xuan, but it was in vain.

Her heart was filled with self-blame and regret. Why couldn't she protect him?

Why did such a tragedy happen?

Seeing this, Shakespeare smiled slightly.

He knew that his plan had worked.

"Well, the last scene~!" He snapped his fingers again.

Da~!

Joan of Arc's vision went dark again.

Chapter 179: Joan of Arc is betrayed by Shakespeare

The scene changed instantly, as if entering a horror castle filled with blood.

The dim stone room was filled with a foul smell. In the center was a luxurious bed, but it was covered with bloody dolls.

Shakespeare picked up the puppet next to him, frowned and said, "It seems that it is impossible to fully simulate that atmosphere. Maybe this scene did not pass the review!"

Joan of Arc looked around blankly. Everywhere she looked were puppets covered in blood and broken. She couldn't help but feel a little puzzled and muttered to herself, "Where is this..."
