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

Yamata no Orochi is a symbol of natural disasters such as floods, tsunamis, and storms. As a result, it is feared by people and has acquired the divinity of disasters.

Anyone who subdues the Yamata-no-Orochi will gain the power of the "Evil Soul". No matter what weapon they hold, they can inject the power of the Evil Soul into it and temporarily regard it as the sword of Ame Murakumo, thereby using moves including the slashing sword technique "Yamata no Rage".

(The hero rescues the princess from the fangs of the dragon - what a classic plot. Even a thousand years later, human society will still recognize this legend!)

……

I received two CGs. As they replicated the story of Susanoo killing Yaki, I got the myth CG as expected, and the corresponding reward also made Iori very excited.

The reason why he was able to kill so many people just now was not only because of his own strength, but also because of the many enhancement states such as spiritual foundation reinforcement, legendary blessing, and command spell charging. All of these added up to finally achieve the great feat.

Many of these things are one-time, or can never be reproduced after the Holy Grail War ends and Type-Moon leaves.

Honestly, Iori felt sorry for this, because that feeling of being omnipotent was indeed quite addictive...

However, this [Eight-headed Demon] allows him to inherit two kinds of divinity and gain sword skills of the Noble Phantasm level, which can be regarded as retaining some strength.

Keep working hard, and if you can get a few more, maybe you can bring this strength back to Soul Society intact~

"What exactly did Ibuki say before he died..."

The young man was full of doubts, but he showed no sign of abnormality. He took Jeanne down from the petrified snake, and soon they arrived with several servants.

Although the previous shock wave was only the residual power, it was like an oversized anti-military weapon, ravaging almost every inch of land equally, and these servants were no exception - after all, this was not a video game, and there was no such thing as friendly forces being immune to damage.

Fortunately, they were not weak and each could withstand a little. Since the energy fluctuations of the aftermath were extremely loose, it did not cause any irreparable tragedy.

Achilles was the first to arrive. He was hardly hurt in the battle, except for a part of his treasure that was destroyed. He landed on the ground with Atalanta and looked at the petrified snake with emotion, looking quite unwilling.

There was no way around it. Although he was a top-level servant, he had no poison resistance and dragon attributes. He could be forcibly reversed at any time if he got close to the snake, so he could only provide support from a distance.

It wasn't just him. Vlad III, Chiron, Atalanta, and even the main attackers who entered the poisonous fog were not all safe and sound.

Among them, Karna is undoubtedly in the best condition. The quality of the golden armor is always trustworthy. Although this great hero suffered a defeat in the battle, he did not suffer any substantial damage or curse.

Next is Jeanne d'Arc. The saint girl's various resistances are maxed out, and the power of the curse can hardly erode her firm belief, so from beginning to end she just over-consumed her magic power while resisting Ibuki's treasure, and was hit by the aftermath.

This ruler is probably the one who is least afraid of poisonous fog - Joan of Arc is a special existence that is so pure that there is no possibility of "evil".

But apart from these two, Black Rider and Red Saber are not in very good condition.

Most of King Arthur's armor was broken, and his body was also seriously injured. Although he used magic to repair the armor, making her look the same as before, the poisonous fog had already taken advantage of the wound to corrode the inside... This was not something that could be expelled in a day or two.

Mordred was similar. She didn't have many injuries on her body, but was more deeply eroded by the poisonous fog. She had no skills against the curse and simply relied on her dragon attributes to resist it.

Under normal circumstances, Red Saber in this state can be considered semi-exited, because it won't be long before she will be reversed to the dark side, with her spiritual base distorted and her rationality deprived, turning her into a being similar to a berserker.

Uh, this doesn't seem to be a negative buff for Mordred...

Anyway, Red Saber doesn't look good!

"Your battle was truly spectacular. Although we are on different sides, I also want to cheer for your victory."

Black Rider made no secret of his admiration for Iori. He looked him over carefully, nodded secretly, and then looked away.

"But it seems that you have also paid a great price?"

"That's a given."

Iori didn't say anything, but Ruler Jeanne took the initiative to say, "To be able to kill such a powerful enemy, the cost is just to overdraw strength, which can be said to be quite cost-effective."

"Hmm~" Arthur nodded in agreement.

Everyone present was a well-informed hero, and they were all servants, so they knew very well that Iori's performance just now had surpassed the limits of what an "ordinary servant" could achieve, and there must be some special reason.

Iori's aura is much weaker now, far less than when he was fighting Ibuki just now... It is normal for everyone to think that he is weak after an outburst.

Joan of Arc was the one who felt it the most, because she possessed a treasure that could burn her spiritual energy in exchange for instant output power!

After using that treasure, Jeanne can burst out with extremely strong destructive power, but it is a one-time treasure, and the price is Jeanne's entire spiritual base...

In comparison, Iori is just "weak", so it can be said that he is treated well!

"Although the process was tortuous, the ending can be considered satisfactory. Without any servants leaving the battlefield, we defeated such a difficult enemy. I can only say that you are indeed very powerful."

Black rider looked at Iori, then at Karna, and finally at ruler.

The King of the Wild Hunt suddenly asked, "Sir Ruler, the mission you issued has been completed. Have my servants, including mine, regained their freedom and returned to their previous combat status?"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense, but no one felt fearful or uneasy. Instead, they all looked eager to try.

"Exactly what I want!"

Mordred was the most excited one: "Rider, you are not in a good condition now. Don't say I am despicable when you die under my sword!"

"what?"

Rider turned his head and glanced at her lightly, then quickly looked away without any lingering gaze.

"Instead of worrying about me here, you should pay more attention to yourself... If this continues, the one who will fight me will no longer be the simple-minded Saber, but the simple-minded Berserker.

Ha! Maybe the Berserker class is more suitable for you~"

"asshole!"

Mordred has a hot temper that can explode at any time, not to mention that this happened in public, which further aroused her rebelliousness and competitive spirit. She was about to draw her sword and challenge Rider to a duel!

--call!

A flagpole covered with cracks and seemingly about to break stood in front of Red Saber.

Joan of Arc stood between the servants of the two camps and said loudly, "Today's battle ends here. Although we have defeated Yamata no Orochi and Ibuki Douji, none of you are in your best condition. Considering that in the previous battle, each of you had different tasks and suffered different impacts, fighting now is undoubtedly extremely unfair!

Therefore, in the name of the arbiter of the Holy Grail War, I declare that the battle for this land will be temporarily put on hold and will not resume until three days later!"

"Three days?"

Vlad III walked over slowly and sneered, "The Red Camp is now rushing to build its own military fortress to counter our base camp. Delaying time will only make them more fully prepared."

"But Your Excellency the Archduke should also consider the losses of his own camp." Jeanne said seriously, "Is the Black side now fully prepared?"

Vlad III was silent!

Absolutely? Of course not!

Shuten-doji attacked Siegfried by surprise, and was attacked by everyone else. Now the black side has lost two servants at once, and Asterios is still recovering from his injuries... It is no exaggeration to say that the black side has been seriously damaged!

On the contrary, the Red Team suffered almost no losses except for Mordred who was severely poisoned and Iori's breath was weakened.

If the two sides go to war now, Vlad III is confident that he can defend the city undefeated, relying on his home advantage and the blessing of the Holy Grail, but to win in an all-out confrontation... is almost impossible.

Of course, even if the situation is not good, the Grand Duke will not show weakness in front of the enemy.

To him, war is a game of life and death, and no one knows the outcome until the very last moment. If one shows even a little bit of weakness, the enemy will swallow him whole, skin and bones!

Therefore, in order to fight against the powerful Ottoman Turks, Vlad III almost killed his own humanity in order to win in the brutal defensive battles...

It is the same now, he is never afraid of defeating the majority with a small force!

"However, I believe that the Red Servant does not have the energy to continue attacking now, right?" Joan of Arc turned to the Red Servant and asked.

King Arthur nodded obediently, Mordred clenched his teeth, Iori watched coldly, and Achilles and Atalanta were eager to try... but after taking a look at Joan of Arc, they gave up the idea.

If we act now, it is very likely that Joan of Arc will be pushed to the opposite side, which would be more trouble than gain.

Besides, everyone can see how tough Joan of Arc is, and there are few people present who can ignore her opinion.

"Okay, since everyone has no objection, then it's decided!"

Joan of Arc heaved a long sigh of relief, glad that she had finally stopped the war. Although her active interference in the running of the Holy Grail War seemed a bit illegal, special circumstances must be dealt with specially!

"Also, there is one more thing."

The Saint Girl smiled and looked at everyone: "Putting aside our respective positions, expelling the Yamata no Orochi is a great achievement in itself. You have protected this land and its inhabitants, and you deserve corresponding rewards."

"award?"

Achilles felt even more regretful. He had always been the first to fight on the battlefield and always took the best share when sharing the spoils, but this time he played almost no role and was destined to be at the end.

This was a great humiliation for the great Greek hero.

Atalanta was more pragmatic: "What kind of reward is it, specifically?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't have any treasures to give you. Among all the items I have that can be used as rewards, I'm afraid the only ones I have are the Command Seals."

Jeanne glanced at everyone carefully, and then said: "This time, all the servants and their masters who enter the poisonous fog to attack the Yamata no Orochi will receive a Command Seal... except for the red berserker."

In fact, the Command Spell sent out is used to cleanse the curse poison!

In order to ensure fairness, Joan of Arc called a temporary truce between the two camps. However, the curse is not something that can be eliminated in a day or two, and the Command Seals are extremely precious strategic resources. Consuming one more Command Seal means losing one trump card, which is not fair to these Servants and Masters.

Therefore, Joan of Arc made this decision to use her own Command Spells to offset the losses suffered by all parties.

Among them, Iori and Karna are exceptions. The two Command Seals corresponding to the former have long been lost, needless to say.

And because of the protection of the armor, Karna was not actually affected...but the Command Spell still had to be given!

"Red Saber, Red Lancer, Black Rider, and... Black Lancer!"

In addition to the three people who faced the Yamata no Orochi directly, there was another person who was chosen by the "Butler" in this Holy Grail War. That was Vlad III, who single-handedly restrained the Yamata no Orochi!

"Huh?" The Grand Duke was a little surprised, but he quickly figured it out.

First of all, it is possible that Joan of Arc wanted to seek relative fairness between the two camps, so she gave two Command Seals to each side.

Secondly, Vlad III did play a very big role. The Yamata-no-Orochi is like a dragon monster in the game. Its head looks hideous and ferocious, but in fact its tail is just as threatening!

"That's great. I have to inform the Master of this good news." Vlad III smiled and said casually - his Master had already been enslaved by him.

Of course, it is still necessary for Chiron and Rider's Masters to receive the Command Spells...

"what?"

"this?"

Under the surprised gazes of the crowd, the black servants were stunned and looked at each other in confusion.

"Why...can't I contact the Master?"

Just as Chiron had a bad guess in his mind and was about to rush back to the base camp, the black servant's face suddenly changed.

"The channel...the magic channel has been cut off! Who is it?!"

"Oops!"

The Centaur Sage looked solemn as he looked towards the direction of the Thousand Worlds Tree Castle: "Could this be the caster...master!"

Chapter 137: Medea's Intimate Advice (4K)

This is so embarrassing...

There are generally two possibilities when a Servant cannot contact the Master.

The first is that the Master was killed, which is nothing to say. The second is that he took the initiative to transfer the Command Seals to someone else, which means he gave up his identity as the Master.

The former is unlikely. The black masters are all staying in the castle of the Thousand Worlds Tree. Even if they are invaded by the enemy, not to mention the many defensive measures, you have to know that this is multiple masters cutting off their connection at the same time. At least someone should have issued a warning before death.

The latter... The Servant should be able to sense the change in ownership of the Command Seals, and the magic channel will not be cut off.

There is another possibility -

"The contract was forcibly terminated!"

Jeanne, as the ruler, seemed to have sensed something: "The Black side's Command Seals have now returned to the Greater Holy Grail... No, the Command Seals have been redistributed, and a new Master has been created!"

It was at this moment that Vlad III, King Arthur, and Chiron changed color again:

The magical channel between them and the Master was reconnected, but the magical power transmitted, both in "quantity" and "quality", was very different from before.

If we make a comparison, the magic power before was just a small stream, but now it is a wide canal!

"What on earth happened?" Black Rider frowned. Although she didn't like her Master very much, as a Servant she still didn't want anything to happen to her.
