I really didn't want to burn it.

"Of course!"

Matthew nodded vigorously.

"Alright, you'll be the second line of defense!"

Leon didn't give Mash a chance to react, charging forward with his shield in hand.

"Lord Camelot!! (The ideal city that is now far away!!)"

With Li Ang's roar, the walls of Camelot appeared beside him.

"Wait a minute! Li Ang!"

Mashu didn't realize what was happening until Leon had already charged towards the "Meteor Shower," and she quickly held her shield up in front of her.

"Ready... Full power! Lord Camelot!! (The distant, ideal city!!)"

With the aid of her battle suit and berserk mode, Mash once again unfurled her wings of light.

The next moment, centered on the shield, a royal city wall shining with the magic of protection was materialized by Mash.

"Haaaaaah!!!"

The wall and the wings of light merged together, and Mash soared into the sky to Li Ang's side.

"That's outrageous, Leon!!" Mashu shouted. "Why am I the second line of defense?! I'm a Knight of the Round Table too!!"

"Since you are a Knight of the Round Table, then you shall obey your senior's orders!"

At this point, Li Ang finally brought up his identity as a Knight of the Round Table, which he had long since relegated to the background.

"What's that! I've never heard Wang mention it before!!"

In fact, Li Ang is certainly a member of the Knights of the Round Table, but he is better known as the Prime Minister in Britain. Little Eggplant's words were clearly intentional.

Although she's usually easy to talk to, Mashu can be incredibly stubborn when she gets angry.

Li Ang originally wanted to make a few more jokes, but the meteor shower of light was already right in front of him.

"Be careful, it's coming!"

Leon raised his shield and charged at it, with Mash quickly following closely behind.

The first wave of meteors fell, each strike possessing the power of the Sword of Victory unleashed by the Contract, yet they did not harm the royal city in the slightest.

"Impressive, they actually blocked it."

Leonardo da Vinci exclaimed in admiration.

She hadn't expected that Li Ang would actually use such a purely defensive Noble Phantasm.

However, as the frontline fighter against the meteors, Li Ang himself did not feel happy, because he knew very well that there were too many meteors, and this was only the first round.

"I wonder how long they can hold out?"

Li Ang broke out in a cold sweat.

【Lord Camelot (The Ideal City That Is Now Far Away)】is the ultimate defense using the round table as a shield, but unlike other defensive Noble Phantasms which generally have fixed defensive values.

The protective strength of the round table corresponds to the user's mental strength; as long as the heart does not yield, the city wall will never collapse.

This means that Li Ang will expend a great deal of mental energy using this shield.

"Can I hold on until the end?"

Li Ang touched the wounds on his body, feeling secretly anxious.

P.S.: I recommend a friend's book, "The Villainous Cult Leader Just Wants a Peaceful Retirement."

Summary:

He was transported to the game world of Blood Moon and became the High Priest of the Ash Order.

Looking at the red moon in the sky, Rollo suddenly remembered that the ultimate goal of the cult was to summon an evil god to destroy the world!

The empire has a bounty of one million gold pounds on his head. As long as the cult commits evil deeds and continues to increase its evil reputation, more powerful figures will come to hunt him down!

"Sigh, the year-end bonus is the lifeblood of becoming a big boss. Once the career progresses further, it's a sure way to die?"

This kind of work is meaningless. Rollo just wants to disband the cult, retire peacefully, and start anew!

Fortunately, he activated his cheat ability; as long as he does good deeds, he can become stronger on the spot!

"Alright, from today onwards, I am the most enthusiastic citizen! Special advisor to the Exorcism Bureau!"

......

Years have passed, and the Demon Slayer Bureau, the Hunter's Guild, the Wizard's Tower, the Knights of Proverbs, the Inquisition, the Empire...

One powerful force after another actually surrendered and submitted!

"There is no hope left in the world."

"Was this also part of your plan?"

"As expected of His Highness the High Priest, everything is under control!"

written request for leave

I took a day off. I was busy with family matters during the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, and I'm exhausted.

So I plan to take a break today and update as usual tomorrow.

Sorry. _(:з」∠)_

Chapter 355 Ying Zheng: I'm Late

Mash's Noble Phantasm, Lord Camelot, is an excellent defensive Noble Phantasm, but it also has a fatal flaw.

Although Mash's Noble Phantasm in the game buffs everyone's defense, the actual target of the Noble Phantasm's protection does not include the user of the Noble Phantasm.

This is what players often refer to as the girl who brought a city, yet stood alone outside it.

In the original game storyline, when Goetia activated her third Noble Phantasm to destroy Ritsuka, Mash stood alone in front of the protagonist with her shield to block the attack. After thankfully the protagonist was unharmed, she left the shield and disappeared.

Afterwards, Fou used her intelligence and unique characteristics as a price to rewrite the predetermined events of Mash's disappearance and granted her a normal human lifespan.

But Li Ang didn't dare gamble that Fou would definitely sacrifice herself for Mashu. What if Fou didn't want to this time?

Ultimately, Fufu is Beast IV, and if it doesn't want to, there's nothing anyone can do.

Not to mention that at this time, Fufu and his black cat were far away in Lin'an and had not entered the Temple of Time at all.

So Li Ang's idea was simple: since he couldn't protect himself, he would let another person use the same Noble Phantasm to complement him.

This is why Leon chose to use the same Noble Phantasm as Mash.

However, Li Ang clearly overestimated his half-crippled physical condition. The wounds he sustained in the battle with Qian Tang Jun had not fully healed, and he was struggling to cope with Goetia's powerful third Noble Phantasm.

"puff……"

Li Ang coughed up a mouthful of blood, and cracks appeared in the city wall beside him.

"Li Ang!!"

Mashu gasped in surprise, trying to go over, but Leon loudly stopped her.

"Don't come any closer!! Hold your positions!" Li Ang said through gritted teeth. "This guy and Renli are separated only by us, so we absolutely cannot back down!"

"Ok."

Despite being very worried about Leon's condition, Mashu could only continue to follow behind Leon and fight back.

"How boring, Li Ang!"

Goetia let out a disdainful sound and laughed arrogantly.

"How long do you think you can hold out while you're injured? Do you still think you're the invincible Grand Master of Qin?! Just watch, you can't even protect the Master of Chaldea!"

Rumble!

Suddenly, the sound of rocks breaking came from the throne below. Startled, Mash looked down and saw countless tentacles with eyeballs emerging from below—the Demon Pillars had returned to the Temple of Time.

"senior!"

"Don't get distracted!!" Li Ang quickly reminded them, "Trust Ritsuka and Da Vinci, they'll handle it! We have our own mission too!!"

Whether Leonardo da Vinci could handle multiple demon pillars is obvious.

But Li Ang had no choice but to believe that the cunning young lady could do it, because if he relaxed even slightly, he would be completely ruined.

"Tch, I thought you had some brilliant plan, but is this all you've got?" Goetia said listlessly. "In that case, you have no reason to exist!"

"Who knows this?"

Li Ang made a "[Team Leader.JPG]" emoji.

"I only... wanted to protect my country and my people! After all, I was once an emperor!!!"

"Superficial!! What's so memorable about such a boring race?! Humans, with their filthy hearts and inability to fight each other, have no value in surviving! Li Ang, you actually want to protect them!!"

"There are indeed some despicable people who are selfish and beyond redemption. But—"

Ignoring the blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, Li Ang roared, "Most humans still possess a beautiful and shining heart! This world is far less boring than you imagine!!"

Goetia paused slightly, then said coldly, "Hmph, so noisy!!"

The next moment, a deafening explosion accompanied by colorful light particles burst into a dazzling display of fireworks in the air, illuminating the entire Temple of Time.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

boom! !

A massive arm, as thick as a roof beam, descended from the sky and struck the steps of the Temple of Time with great force, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"careful!"

Da Vinci, holding Ritsuka, leaped high into the air to dodge the attack from the Demon Pillar, and then severed the tentacle with a magic cannon shot.

However, it was of no use, because the severed tentacle quickly grew back.

"Tsk!"

Da Vinci frowned in displeasure, her beautiful face contorting into a grimace as she looked toward the tentacles of the Demon Pillar.

Koyanskaya stood there with DD, who had broken free of her restraints, while the Demon Pillars completely ignored their presence.

"Ok?"

Feeling Leonardo da Vinci's gaze, Goryanskaya looked up and winked at her triumphantly.

"..."

Da Vinci resisted the urge to fire the magic bullets at the fox spirit and continued to contend with the demon pillar.

"These guys are disgusting! You can't kill them, you can't drive them away, they're just like American cockroaches!!!"

Da Vinci had considered killing the Demon Pillar directly, but the Demon Pillar she had just managed to defeat was immediately resurrected the next second.

"It would be great if Shadow Bord had been brought along."

At this moment, Leonardo da Vinci missed his armored vehicle that could rampage through the enemy with great longing.

"Be careful!!"

Only after Ritsuka reminded him did Da Vinci realize that tentacles had already ambushed him from above.

"watch out!"

Da Vinci quickly threw out his gauntlets to repel the tentacles, however—

Whizzing!

Two other tentacles attacked her, one in front and one behind.

boom! !

Two beams of light, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, blasted directly at the tentacles, creating an opportunity for Leonardo da Vinci to escape.

"Ying Zheng!"
