You are very strong, but my painting style is better than yours!

"We can't go any further!" Chiron felt something was wrong intuitively, and he slowed down and reminded Achilles.

For the existence in the forest, a distance of several hundred meters is actually equivalent to being next to it, which is already within reach. If the other party has malicious intentions, it can start attacking now.

But the high-spirited hero was full of confidence in himself. He was going to investigate the internal situation. Even if the other party launched an attack, he had enough ability to deal with it!

However, before he could enter the forest, a series of arrows attacked him, forcing him to dodge and his speed suddenly slowed down.

"Big sister?" Achilles was stunned when he saw the emerald green arrow stuck in the ground.

They were indeed attacked, but not by monsters from the forest, but by Archer from the same faction.

"why?"

"You're being reckless, rider."

After a moment, the nimble Atalanta fell to the ground and said to Achilles bluntly: "You died because of this when you were alive, and you can't change it now?"

"Atalanta is right."

Chiron then explained: "Rider, you have to observe carefully. That forest is now 'dead'. There is a deadly poison in it that can even corrode us Servants!"

"poison?"

Achilles' heart trembled, and he looked quickly, and found that just as the Centaur Sage said, the place had completely turned into a dead zone, and he could sense an extremely strong ominous aura from a distance.

In fact, his perception was not weak, but he was concentrating on the huge monster, and his mind was full of how to challenge this guy, so he ignored the hidden dangers right in front of him.

"This kind of poison cannot be cured by magic or medicine. I'm afraid it's something like a curse. Although your treasure can resist non-divine attacks, this kind of special poison is another matter."

Chiron spoke clearly, and Achilles felt deeply moved:

He possesses an immortal body that is invulnerable to swords and guns, so no matter in his lifetime or now, he is always fearless and reckless on the battlefield, ravaging the enemy with absolute strength!

But he also knew that there was no real "immortality" in this world. Even heroes like Hercules and wise men like Chiron fell to the "poison". If it was a curse of the same level, then even if Achilles had a treasure to protect him, it would probably be useless.

"It hasn't even fully descended yet, but the leaked aura alone has 'killed' an entire area of ​​land. The poison is so strong that even Servants will be affected... I think I already know its name."

"What is it?" Achilles asked hastily, "Who summoned it?"

"It's called 'Yamata no Orochi'. In the mythology of the Far East, it was a giant beast that came from the sea, causing great waves and no one could stop it. It was not until a wandering war god passed by that he used his wisdom to successfully weaken it and then killed it."

——It was Iori who spoke.

He arrived shortly after Atalanta appeared, along with Vlad III, the leader of the Thousand Worlds camp.

As the red side's berserker, it was unusual to walk with Vlad III, but none of the servants on both sides felt strange at this time:

It's just like no one asked what happened to Achilles and Chiron.

To put it bluntly, everyone is just a competitor to each other, not a mortal enemy who had a grudge against each other in life. Now that an unexpected situation has occurred, it is normal to put aside the conflict temporarily.

Sure enough, as time went by, Karna, King Arthur, and Mordred all arrived here one after another, and Joan of Arc was the last to arrive - she had excellent leg strength, but had no relevant skills or means of transportation, so she could only rely on running.

The most eye-catching thing is that Mordred was actually sitting behind King Arthur, and the two of them rode on war horses together!

Although Red Saber had a sour face (it was obvious that she had been beaten up a lot), she was not embarrassed at all when she was hitchhiking. Although King Arthur was cold and indifferent, she never treated others politely, but she made an exception and let someone get so close to her...

However, the two will still fight each other afterwards, and will never show mercy - this "father and son" relationship is really amazing.

"Sera...be prepared. If you feel tired, use the Command Spell at any time!"

Iori carefully warned his master in his heart, while staring at the source of the poisonous field, the translucent body that towered like a mountain...

Can you win?

can!

If you don't have this level of confidence even though you're using your real name "Susanoo", then don't come to participate in the Holy Grail War. Just go to Emiya's house in the next world line and eat for free!

Of course, he was confident, but Iori's style was not that of Nanosong. He had to be cautious with the enemy that was beyond his capacity. This was also the way in which Susanoo in the original story could successfully accomplish the feat of slaying the dragon and snake.

"My real name is [Jeanne d'Arc], and as the Ruler of this Holy Grail War, in the name of the Lord, I will ensure the fairness of this war!"

The Saint Girl pointed the battle flag at the Yamata no Orochi without hesitation: "That is a harmful beast that has escaped the restraints of the Holy Grail. When it is fully summoned to this world, everything we see will turn into a poisonous swamp, and all the 'soil' and 'water' it touches will die.

Not only will the balance of nature be disrupted, but even the city next to it will not be able to be preserved. If it is not restrained, it may even destroy a country!

Therefore, we must destroy it here!"

Jeanne gave orders to everyone as a matter of course, and all the servants, including Iori, had no objections.

The Yamata-no-Orochi is not an opponent that can be defeated by an individual. Even those as proud as Achilles and Karna would not think that the body of a Servant can be compared to that of a god - even if it is incomplete.

Only by gathering all the servants together will there be a hope of killing it!

To achieve this, someone must stand up and call for action, and only Joan of Arc can do this!

"Listen! All of you heroic spirits who are invincible, even if you are on opposite sides, please leave your backs to each other now!"

Chapter 132: He is a professional at being outrageous (4K)

Red side: Iori, Karna, Mordred, Achilles, Atalanta;

Black: Vlad III, Chiron, and Artoria;

Ruler: Joan of Arc.

Excluding those who have left and those who stayed behind in the base camp, a total of nine servants from the three camps gathered here. At Jeanne's call, they will join forces to defeat the Yamata no Orochi and "Shuten-doji".

It has to be said that this is beyond the ordinary Holy Grail War, and it is a huge scale that can only appear in this war. I believe that even in the distant Age of Gods, it was rare for so many heroes to participate in the same battle. Only the wars like Troy and Kurus, which were enough to involve the entire pantheon, could be so grand.

——This is also the charm of the Holy Grail War.

Iori and his companions did not have the time to feel sad about this. After deciding to join forces to fight the enemy, they soon encountered the first problem they needed to solve:

Very poisonous!

According to the legend, the Yamata-no-Orochi was not only huge in size like a mountain, with heavy black clouds following its head, but also had an abdomen that was eroded and bleeding, and no one or animals were spared wherever it passed.

Although the evil god summoned by Shuten Douji has not yet fully arrived, its powerful force is enough to change the surrounding environment. The breath it exhaled caused the entire forest to wither, and pus and blood continued to flow out, gradually spreading along the terrain to the surrounding wilderness, making the land soaked with poison.

Chiron is the most knowledgeable among all the servants. In addition to being proficient in all combat-related skills, he also knows a thing or two about medicine. Asclepius, the Greek god of medicine, is his favorite disciple.

Chiron may not be as "expert" as Asclepius, but his knowledge and vision are not inferior. He immediately realized the danger of the Yaki poison.

"That's not just a simple poison. It's mixed with the concept of 'depravity'. It's a curse made from desire and resentment!"

"Fallen?"

Achilles scratched his head: "Can you explain it more simply?"

Chiron gave the student a reproachful look and explained, “The poison prepared by humans is only effective on living organisms, but the aura emitted by the Yamata no Orochi can even corrode spirits, and even the spiritual foundations of the Servants will be affected.

Moreover, this influence is not simply destruction, but it reverses the spiritual attributes and makes the servants lose their glory... Once an orthodox hero is deeply involved in it, he may fall into his own dark side. "

"Poison for 'heroes'?"

Everyone was shocked. They didn't expect it to be so difficult.

It should be noted that everyone present is an orthodox hero. Although Altria is dressed in black, she is not actually the "dark side". Instead, she emphasizes the image of a cold and iron-blooded overlord, which has nothing to do with corruption.

The only one who was summoned as a Romanian hero, but because of the legend, he has a "vampire" side... He is the one who is most likely to be reversed.

"Not only that," Chiron glanced at Vlad III and continued, "If it is an anti-hero or a servant whose image has been distorted by legend... he will have no resistance to this curse!"

Sure enough, Vlad III's expression suddenly turned gloomy: he was the one who most wanted to punish Shuten-doji, but fate played a joke on him, which meant that he might be completely useless in subsequent battles.

"If you want to get close to the Yamata no Orochi, you must find a way to resist the erosion of the poison."

"No need to go through so much trouble!"

Black Rider snorted coldly: "The will of the king cannot be distorted by anyone. I am just a poisonous snake. Being timid has never been my style!"

What she meant was that she was going to go ahead despite the effects of the poison, but with her [Magic Resistance], she could indeed hold on for a long time. Moreover, she also had the dragon attribute, which could weaken the negative effects brought by her kind (similar to a special defense BUFF).

"Huh? What kind of king are you? A true Knight King isn't a dark fellow like you. The only one who can replace Arthur is me. Besides me, not even her own side can do it!"

Mordred immediately volunteered: "Stop talking so much, why don't you just go ahead and do it! I'll take the lead!"

"Young!" The Black King holding the gun smiled slightly, "Not surprising, both physically and mentally, he is still just a child."

"you--"

"Everyone calm down!"

Jeanne quickly spoke up to stop them: "Now is not the time to quarrel. You can show your bravery on the battlefield instead of mocking each other here with your companions."

"That being said, according to what Lord Chiron said, we can't get close to the Yamata-no-Orochi." Atalanta analyzed calmly, "Although we can use long-range attacks, that size... can't be dealt with by anti-army or anti-city treasures."

"This one……"

Jeanne glanced at Karna first, then looked at Iori: "There will always be a way."

"Let me open the way."

Karna's tone was calm, and even when facing such a terrifying monster, he did not show much emotion.

"The sun's rays can purify all evil. No matter what kind of curse it is, it cannot affect my will. Let me use this gun to dispel the poisonous fog for you!"

After hearing this, everyone either admired, remained silent, or sneered, but no one spoke out against it. Even if some of them were unhappy with Karna, they all admitted that the Son of the Sun was qualified to say such words.

Iori couldn't help but look sideways:

This is the confidence brought by "The Curse of the Golden Flower", which is really enviable.

His Avatar is already a good defensive ability, but it is still far inferior to the radiance that protects the Son of the Sun.

The golden armor on Red Lancer is a defensive treasure that is assimilated with his body and can emit the light of the sun god.

In Indian mythology, the sun god Surya gave Karna golden armor and earrings to prove that he was his son and so that Karna would not have to doubt his bloodline. And because it is an existence sublimated from the concept of "light", it is difficult for even the gods to destroy it.

This statement is by no means an exaggeration, because in the myth, Karna wearing armor is indeed invincible!

Even in the servant state, the golden armor still has the powerful effect of weakening all hostile interference, reducing the damage suffered to one tenth!

Whether it is physical destruction, magical attack, conceptual curse, or even doomsday-level extinction attack, all are within the response range of the Golden Armor!

Taking into account the healing effect of the golden armor and its own defensive strength, the damage Karna actually suffered was far less than one-tenth, and he would be healed quickly.

Karna, the son of the sun, is a hero with literally no weaknesses!

The venom of the Yamata no Orochi makes it very difficult for ordinary servants to deal with it, but it is obvious that they cannot break through the golden armor.

"One person is not enough."

Jeanne shook her head and looked directly at Iori, "But if we let Rider, Lancer, and Berserker raid together... we might be able to create a great opportunity!"

"I have no opinion."

Iori actually hoped for a more stable battle plan instead of making such a hasty decision to attack...but judging from the condition of the Yamata no Orochi, it seemed that they didn't have much time.

The huge monster that stretched across the night became more and more solid as time went by. Clouds of various colors gathered in the sky and covered the bright moon. The area covered by the poisonous fog also gradually expanded.

It looks like before dawn, Yamata no Orochi will be able to start moving freely, and take advantage of Romania as if it were its own backyard and ravage it at will.

This speed is so unusual!

Even if Yaqi itself has something special and can absorb the magic power of the dragon veins, the largest dragon vein hub nearby is clearly below the Thousand Worlds Tree Castle, right where the Holy Grail is!

Yaqi was only drawing energy from the branch meridians, but it caused such a big commotion...

There may be something fishy going on here. Solving this problem would probably greatly weaken Yamata-no-Orochi, but reality would not give Iori that much time, so a decision must be made soon.

"Then it's decided. The two red and black Archers will provide support shooting, and the main attackers will be the black rider, the red Lancer, and... hm?"

Joan of Arc turned around suddenly, and the servants looked up one after another. Everyone felt the danger coming at the same time.

"hold head high------"

It was not harsh, but rather a mellow and long roar that spread far across the earth, echoing over and over again, ringing in the ears of every hero and making them frown.

Soon, one of the eight listless heads of the behemoth slowly lifted up, and a hint of scarlet gradually appeared in its translucent eyes, quickly filling the entire pupil, followed by the eyes, and then blood as thick as berry juice slowly flowed out of it...

At the moment when the eyes were completely "lit up", the snake head opened its mouth, and ripples appeared in the atmosphere. The density of the surrounding poisonous fog suddenly increased by more than one level, and even had a great impact on the physical level - when observed with the naked eye, it was almost pitch dark.

The height of the poisonous fog is about 20 meters. The whole Yamata no Orochi seems to be entrenched in a nest made of colorful clouds, revealing a bit of strange beauty.

Soon, it noticed these "bugs" not far away. It moved its body slightly, and a powerful force suddenly swept across the area!

It was difficult to see the whole picture in the thick fog, but one could hear the big trees being brutally run over and ruthlessly uprooted, the surface of the earth being crushed, countless cracks being born with loud noises, and spreading towards Iori and others at an increasingly faster speed!

Something is coming!

It sounds long, but in fact it was only a short moment, and the heroes who had experienced many battles were not scared at all and made their own judgment in the blink of an eye.

"Well done!"

Mordred moves!
