Oh no, I really became Cao Mengde!

Chapter 76 This is my escape route.jpg

"As expected of the legendary female hunter raised by the Moon Goddess, she is able to catch up after running for so long and so fast. She is indeed quite capable!"

Cao Mengde was deeply moved and felt admiration.

Sure enough, one should not underestimate the heroes of the world. The power possessed by each of them opened Cao Mengde's eyes.

Fortunately, God gave him Cao Aman a chance to experience a new life.

"Master, do you want to fight?" Kriemhild asked, looking at Atalanta with hatred and murderous intent.

Her goal now is to find Siegfried, question him in person, and then kill him with her own hands to vent her inner resentment.

The Master said that anyone who stood in her way and prevented her from meeting Siegfried was her enemy and could be the target of revenge.

Thus, Atalanta easily became Kriemhild's enemy, triggering her skill [Revenge Plan (Sprint) B++], which enhanced her speed and strength.

Cao Mengde did not answer immediately, but ran while observing Atalanta's condition behind him.

The other party did not attack after catching up, and the distance between them did not shorten, but kept a certain distance. This made him feel that the other party was chasing them like a cat playing with a mouse, playing with its prey.

But after taking a few glances, I felt that it was somewhat different.

Cao Mengde suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, "Mary, are there any other hostile servants around with spiritual reactions?"

Olga Marie glanced at the screen and quickly replied: "No, she's the only one!"

Then, she suddenly understood: "Could it be that——"

"Well, that's the one."

Cao Mengde smiled slightly. Now he finally understood why Atalanta did not attack them but was just chasing them.

This was probably because she was the only one who caught up with him. Atalanta was not like Tomoe Gozen, who could use a bow and was also good at close combat.

As an archer, she is really just an archer and can only shoot arrows from behind.

Unless——she could use another of her Noble Phantasms.

If she could use it, she would have used it long ago, and there would be no need to chase it like this.

The frenzy may not have a big impact on her.

After knowing what was going on, Cao Mengde made a prompt decision: "Kriemhild! Make a quick decision and keep her here!"

Hearing this, Kriemhild smiled evilly: "Okay, Master. I can't wait any longer. I'm so anxious waiting!"

Then she turned around, moved forward a little backward, and then transferred all the speed brought by her mad run to her feet and lowered her body.

Bang!

The next moment, Kriemhild used her accumulated strength to launch herself out like a spring, leaving a deep dent in the ground, and rushed towards Atalanta at lightning speed.

The magic sword Balmung in his hand ignited the terrifying black flame of revenge!

"Um?!"

But Atalanta's reaction was not slow either. She was always on guard against the possibility of counterattacks from Cao Mengde and the others, and she kept a certain distance from them. This allowed the prey to think that it could escape, while at the same time allowing her to closely follow the prey and not lose sight of the target.

Just as Kriemhild turned around, Atalanta had already braked, raised the bow in her hand, condensed a green arrow and shot it at Kriemhild, aiming directly at her head.

"Ha~"

Facing Atalanta's attack, Kriemhild sneered and slashed with her sword without even looking.

A blood-red crescent flame half a person's height flew out from Balmung's body, cutting through the air and colliding with Atalanta's arrow.

It was obvious that the slender arrow had no way of competing with the broad aura. The moment it touched, it was like a bullet hitting glass, shattering in an instant and dispersing into tiny points of green light.

Then it was swallowed up by the blood-red crescent flame, leaving nothing behind, and continued to fly forward, attacking Atalanta!

"Well!"

Atalanta had not expected Kriemhild to attack in this way, breaking her attack and counterattacking at the same time.

It is now impossible to block the attack, or the risk is too high and the gain does not outweigh the loss, so the only option left is - get out of the way!

So Atalanta leaped up and raised herself several meters high on the spot, trying to use the height difference to avoid Kriemhild's crescent-shaped aura.

She succeeded.

Kriemhild's crescent flame passed under her feet, almost touching her. Then the attack hit the tree behind her, directly cutting the one-meter-wide tree in half and hitting the mountain wall and exploding.

Atalanta in the air did not sit idle. She still drew her bow and shot three arrows at Kriemhild at a rapid speed.

“It’s so ugly!”

Kriemhild sneered and swept out with the sword. A blood-red light flashed and the arrow turned into ashes and dissipated again.

Until Atalanta landed, she was unable to stop Kriemhild's attack. In just a few seconds, Kriemhild had arrived in front of Atalanta and slashed with the sword again.

"Be crushed!"

Balmung slashed down with a blood-red aura, and Atalanta could clearly feel the resentment, anger, and hatred contained in it.

These malicious emotions are truly frightening. Ordinary people... no, even servants will be affected by these negative emotions and their combat effectiveness will drop significantly if they touch them.

Atalanta naturally didn't want to be hit by this sword, so she quickly raised the bow and arrow in her hand. After a "click" sound, the bow and arrow was only slightly damaged, but the huge force directly knocked her back.

"Hmph, thanks..."

However, this was just Atalanta's strategy, using Kriemhild's strength to create distance. As long as she could create distance, she would be at an advantage.

She did not forget that she was just an archer, and long-range attack was her job. Close combat was not something an archer should be capable of.

Although in the army, those who can become archers are good at close combat and long-range combat, but Atalanta is different. She is just a hunter. It is enough for her to use a bow and arrow. Who would fight with the prey in close combat?

Wouldn't it be better to attack the enemy from a distance in a safe place?

"Ah..." Kriemhild realized that she had used too much strength, causing Atalanta to pull away again. Her expression suddenly turned hateful. "Kill you... I will kill you... because I hate you!"

However, Kriemhild no longer approached Atalanta, but held up the magic sword in her hand, with a blood-red aura surrounding her.

Then, the eyes on the magic sword Balmung flashed a red light. This moment made Atalanta's body tense up, and a huge sense of threat enveloped her, and goose bumps appeared all over her!

She didn't dare to think about what was going on, and subconsciously fled from the spot - and at the moment she jumped away, a dark crack suddenly appeared on the spot, and then a red magic flame exploded! The round magic flame combined with the dark crack was like the eye on the magic sword descending directly!

Although Atalanta reacted quickly and dodged another attack, the attack range was large this time, and the impact of the explosion still affected her, causing some internal injuries to her body and a trace of blood flowing from her mouth.

Chapter 77: Become a shooting star, Tarasque!

Although Kriemhild's sudden long-range attack caused Atalanta to be unable to dodge and suffer some internal injuries, this still did not change the situation in which Atalanta had the advantage.

Atalanta was so agile that she was like the most agile and alert wild cat in the forest. Once she sensed danger, she would immediately jump away and run to a safer place, and then attack the enemy.

The fight between the two made a lot of noise. Or rather, it was Kriemhild who made the noise alone. The surrounding trees and rocks were blown up by her.

Seeing Kriemhild trying to get close to Atalanta but being quickly distanced by the other party, Cao Mengde couldn't help but frown.

Atalanta was so slippery that Kriemhild could not find a suitable opportunity to get close to her. She could only try to harass her with long-range attacks while trying to get close at the same time.

But several times I failed.

If this continues, time will be wasted longer and longer, which is not a good thing.

We knew before that Atalanta caught up but did not attack, and kept a certain chasing distance, just to wait for her companions to arrive.

She only needed to give Cao Mengde and the others a sense of oppression, making them more anxious and wasting their energy. Attacking would only get her into trouble, just like now.

Atalanta's goal now has always been to wait for her companions to arrive, and then to kill the target enemy.

"We can't go on like this..."

Now everyone knows that the longer the time goes on, the more advantages it will have for Atalanta and the less advantages it will have for them.

When Atalanta's companions arrived at the scene, no matter what rank they were in, they could easily capsize Cao Mengde and others who lacked combat effectiveness.

At that time, Cao Mengde would have to consider whether to go there himself.

As for Black Zhen, awakening her now would not bring her more combat power. In layman's terms, she was too weak, and the magic power she could replenish in a short time was not enough to support her in the battle.

So Cao Mengde raised his right hand without hesitation: "Give the order with the Command Seal! Berserker, release the Noble Phantasm!"

Fortunately, only about a minute has passed, so it is not too late to use the Command Spell.

If we don't use the Command Seal now to let Kriemhild release her Noble Phantasm and kill Atalanta, it may be too late later.

Things with Command Seals should be used when they are needed. Like before, Fuyuki had been holding them without using them just to complete the plan.

Then the dragon-patterned command seal on Cao Mengde's right hand disappeared with a flick of its tail, and a huge amount of magic power directly filled Kriemhild's body, making her moan with comfort.

"Ah - the power of revenge fills my body..." A red light flashed in Kriemhild's eyes. She raised the greatsword in her hand, and the black and red flames gushed out from the sword again, as if to soar into the sky.

At the same time, a huge amount of magical energy swirled around her, rolling up the branches and leaves scattered around because of the battle. It was obvious at a glance that the next attack would be absolutely extraordinary!

"Curse everything in this world, hate everything in this world! Balmung, cut off your head and brand my hatred...on your body!"

Then several more beams of light flew out from the magic sword and quickly flew towards Atalanta. If you were entangled, you would be tightly controlled and it would be difficult to break free.

"Have you released the Noble Phantasm?" Atalanta's expression became more serious, and her mind became extremely focused.

Although she could guess that the other party would most likely use a Noble Phantasm, she didn't expect that he would use it so soon.

It's like fighting a few times with bare hands, and then the other party pulls out a baton.

Atalanta started running, dodging the black and red light streams, and at the same time turned around and shot out several more aggressive arrows, trying to break those black and red light streams.

However, after those green arrows hit the light stream, they did break it up. But the next second, the light stream gathered again and continued to fly towards her.

"Um?!"

Are these attacks impossible to break? !

Atalanta dodged faster, but unfortunately, the light stream was faster than her and immediately wrapped around her, holding her tightly.

"Well!"

After struggling desperately and finding that she could not break free, Atalanta simply stopped struggling and waited for Kriemhild's real attack to come.

She just felt a little sorry that she didn't kill the annoying Joan of Arc, even though she knew that this Joan of Arc was different from the one she hated.

Once Atalanta was restrained, Kriemhild made her final attack.

But this time, she didn't walk up to him with her sword and strike him. Because the distance was far, she didn't want to walk over slowly and strike him, as that would take too much time.

Although she was a berserker, she had not lost much of her rationality and knew that the most important thing for them now was time.

Why are you walking so slowly? Are you complaining that you have too much time? This is not the way to seek death.

Then, Kriemhild stood where she was, raised the greatsword in her hand high, and then slashed with the sword as if to smash it down.

"The Wandering Demon Sword? The Saint Concubine has lost her soul!!"

At the moment the greatsword was slashed out, a crescent-shaped flame that was several times larger than before and more intensely red and black in color shot out, plowing the ground and slamming towards Atalanta!

However, just as this attack was launched, a shout came from the distant sky -

"Tarasque, the dragon of sorrow who knows no love! Tarasque, turn into a shooting star!"

"Roar!"

Along with it came a dragon's roar that sounded like a scream of fear.

Before people could react, a huge, rotating sphere emitting purple light came flying at them rapidly, making a thunderous sound and breaking through the air!

boom!

The huge sphere directly hit Kriemhild's treasure attack. At that moment, a huge explosion suddenly occurred. The impact force generated by the explosion directly hit Atalanta and Kriemhild who were slightly closer, and blew them away!

And Cao Mengde and Hei Zhen, who were watching not far away, were also knocked to the ground!

The explosion did not have much impact on Cao Mengde. He immediately got up after falling. He first found Heizhen in the smoke and dust, checked her body, and found no injuries. Then he shouted, "Klinshide! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine..."

Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, dispersing some of the smoke and dust around.

Cao Mengde saw Kriemhild inserting the greatsword in front of her body. She stood up shakily with her legs turned inward and holding the hilt of the sword with both hands.

It seemed that at the moment the explosion was about to happen, she held the sword in front of herself to block a lot of damage caused by the explosion.

But even so, Kriemhild was injured and her dress was obviously torn.

But Atalanta was in a worse condition because she was controlled by Kriemhild and had no way to withstand the impact of the explosion. The injuries she suffered would only be more than Kriemhild, not less.
