However, when Saber, who had prepared herself for a great battle, saw the King of Conquerors' current appearance clearly, she was stunned, and the people in the real world were also stunned.

Because the King of Conquerors was not wearing the Macedonian leather armor and red plush cloak he had worn in previous battles, but casual clothes - the white T-shirt with the world map on the log of the "Grand Strategy" game that he had bought without telling Weber.

This figurative expression does not say that they are here to fight, but rather to travel and visit.

Even after seeing Saber, the King of Conquerors smiled broadly and boldly, raised his right hand, and said, "Hey, Saber!"

Saber: “……?”

Irisviel: “……???”

They were all confused and had no idea what was going on. The Conqueror's unconventional approach really confused the two women.

-

In the real world, many people burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha~ As expected of Alexander the Great, he never plays by the rules. He really knows how to have fun."

"Look at King Arthur's bewildered expression. This could definitely be screenshotted and used as an emoticon."

"No need to be complete, I've already done it. Look, the king's confusion.jpg."

"WWWW~ I'm dying of laughter. Is this King of Conquerors really the comedian?"

"Alexander the Great: You think I'm here to fight? No, I'm here to play!"

"Holy Grail War? I'm not serious~ Hey~ I'm just playing~.gif."

All kinds of jokes and gags appeared at this time, and super talented netizens fully demonstrated their talents. After all, such scenes are rare in the serious Holy Grail War.

Most importantly, the King of Conquerors seemed to possess the talent of a comedian. Funny things always happened when communicating with him. This was true with the King of Heroes, and now it was also true with Saber.

A definite Holy Grail War mudslide.

-

Seeing the image on the light screen, Saber came back to her senses and asked the King of Conquerors what he was trying to do. She originally wanted to take action directly, but the King of Conquerors' unconventional attitude made her a little wary, and she always felt that the King of Conquerors had some conspiracy.

Upon hearing this, the King of Conquerors reached out and patted his side. Through the camera, people finally saw that there was a wooden barrel there.

Then, the King of Conquerors directly carried the wooden barrel on his shoulder, and there was a sound of water shaking inside, which obviously indicated that it was full of liquid.

At the same time, the aroma of wine wafted from the wooden barrel.

The King of Conquerors said as if it was a matter of course, "Of course I'm here to drink with you! Now, don't just stand there. Lead the way!"

Saber: “……?”

In the real world, people all over the world: “???”

Amidst the bewilderment of billions, the King of Conquerors continued, "Is there no courtyard suitable for drinking? How can we drink in this shabby castle, which is covered in dust?"

Hearing this, Saber and Irisviel looked at each other, both with confused expressions, obviously having never met such a person before.

In the real world, people are becoming increasingly confused by the King of Conquerors' actions.

It's okay to come to King Arthur to drink, but what Alexander the Great did is really confusing.

However, many people also feel that the Conqueror King's actions are purposeful and planned, and must have a deeper meaning.

Then, following this idea, many people believed that the King of Conquerors was actually looking for an alliance with the Saber team this time. After all, many allies had already appeared in the previous light screen images, so it was not surprising that the Rider team wanted to form an alliance with the Saber team.

Rather, this is in line with the true meaning of "war".

The art of forming alliances has been around since ancient times. Whether in the East or the West, or looking at the whole world, the essence of diplomacy has never changed.

Chapter 144 The King's Banquet

At Yaoguang Chaldea Headquarters, Morgan gracefully lifted his chin and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, this Alexander the Great should be trying to test King Arthur's attitude and seek an opportunity for an alliance."

"To be honest, these methods are actually quite old-fashioned. However, since he was a king from over 2000 years ago, and hailed from a time when barbarism was prevalent in Greece, such simple and crude tactics are only natural."

She made a judgment based on her own experience and vision, because this kind of method is actually not uncommon in the aristocratic circle. At least there are many examples in the thousands of years of history of the Holy British Empire.

However, Altria disagreed with Morgan's judgment. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "I don't think this Alexander the Great came here for the purpose of forming an alliance."

Morgan and the others looked at Altria, who wasn't there. But video calls weren't some black technology; turning on the video call and putting it next to her made her look like she was there. Morgan wasn't angry at his sister's rebuttal, but instead asked curiously, "Why do you think that?"

Altria shook her head: "Although it may seem strange to you all, my intuition is this..."

When everyone heard this, they did not think that what Artoria said was too metaphysical, but based on this foundation they began to think about what other purposes the King of Conquerors had.

This was not the first time that Altria's intuition conflicted with other people's judgments in these days, but every time her intuition proved to be more accurate.

This metaphysical and incredible intuition made everyone involuntarily think of the A-level intuition skill possessed by King Arthur in the image on the light screen.

The ability to predict the future almost instantly during a battle is too buggy, and Artoria has already demonstrated similar intuition, always able to accurately judge the truth through her intuition.

So, when Artoria said that her intuition did not support the alliance hypothesis, everyone couldn't help but agree with this judgment.

-

The camera moves to the large garden behind the Einzbern Castle.

In the center of this garden that was the size of three basketball courts, Artoria and the King of Conquerors sat on the ground, while their companions, Irisviel and Weber, stood not far behind their respective servants.

The two kings looked at each other with a powerful aura and a sense of oppression. Although neither of them deliberately released their aura, the invisible pressure still forced Irisviel and Weber to watch from afar, not daring to approach rashly.

The next moment, there was a clang, and the King of Conquerors smashed the lid of the wooden barrel with one punch, revealing the barrel full of red wine.

Then, the King of Conquerors took out two wooden wine glasses, took out a wooden spoon, filled one of them with wine, and then tilted his head back and drank the wine in one gulp.

"Ha~"

After sighing comfortably and savoring the feeling of the wine flowing down his throat, the King of Conquerors said to Saber, who had remained silent and waiting for him to speak, "It is said that the Holy Grail is destined to be obtained by the most suitable person, and the battle in Fuyuki City is a ceremony to select such a person."

"But I think that if we're just going to conduct a selection, there's no need for bloodshed. As long as the Heroic Spirits can understand each other's level of ability, the final answer will naturally be found."

As he spoke, the King of Conquerors had already filled another cup with fine wine and handed it to Saber.

Saber took it with great grace and drank the glass of wine in one gulp. Her drinking speed was no slower than that of the King of Conquerors, and she was full of arrogance.

The King of Conquerors saw all this and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows with a hint of admiration. After seeing this, people in the real world also praised King Arthur for his arrogance and said, "Our king is so handsome."

Although both of them were drinking, people didn't feel anything when the King of Conquerors drank, but reacted violently when King Arthur drank. This was all because King Arthur looked like a teenage girl, while the King of Conquerors was a muscular man who was obviously in his thirties.

When the two of them were drinking, the Conqueror gave people a sense of rightness, while King Arthur was a complete and strong contrast.

Although the historical record of King Arthur was a strong man who could tear lions and tigers apart with his bare hands, the image on the screen looked like a heroic and beautiful girl.

Well, in short, this is a world where looks matter.

Of course, for this reason, many parents around the world are a little worried at this time, because many children think that King Arthur is so cool and looks very close to their age, so they tell their parents that they also want to drink and be as handsome as King Arthur.

This extremely suicidal request was naturally suppressed by the parents with an iron fist. Many naughty children were beaten with the love of their parents in order to correct their wrong cognition.

Some parents even called to report King Arthur, saying that King Arthur's behavior had corrupted their children and demanded that the authorities intervene, punish and ban King Arthur.

When officials from various countries received complaint calls, they all had a look of 'MDZZ' on their faces.

-

On the screen, Saber put down her wine glass and said calmly, "So, do you want to compete with me first? Rider."

The King of Conquerors leaned sideways, his left leg curled up, his left hand resting on his left knee as he grinned, "That's right. Since both you and I claim to be kings and refuse to back down, conflict is inevitable."

"But before that, I would like to engage in a verbal confrontation. You could say this isn't a 'Holy Grail War,' but a 'Holy Grail Quiz'—we'll each use our own will to determine who is more worthy of being the 'King of the Holy Grail'!"

"This banquet is held for this purpose!"

Saber narrowed her eyes, completely understanding the King of Conquerors' thoughts. Everyone present also understood the King of Conquerors' thoughts.

-

In the real world, people also understood the King of Conquerors' thoughts, and also understood what the banquet that the King of Conquerors mentioned during the day was all about.

However, because they knew this, many people showed a black question mark face, saying that they could not understand the Conqueror King's operation at all.

It's not an alliance, but a battle of words to decide who will be the King of the Holy Grail?

What does that mean? You're going to use your words to convince the enemy, and then make them bow down and offer the Holy Grail with both hands?

What kind of third-rate YY novel plot is this?

Damn, if he had just drunk some alcohol and taken a few cephalexins, he wouldn't have been so drunk.

Or did the Conqueror think that his arrogance could convince King Arthur to give up the Holy Grail willingly?

To be honest, people didn't understand it at all, but they were deeply shocked.

Of course, some people think it's super cool. This way of deciding the winner through verbal confrontation is quite exciting in a sense and makes people full of expectations.

In fact, even those who completely don't understand the Conqueror King's tricks are actually looking forward to what will happen next, and they really want to know what kind of verbal confrontation the two kings will have.

Then, the image on the light screen showed new developments.

-

A defiant voice rang out from the screen image: "Stop messing around here! Miscellaneous cultivators!"

Accompanied by the classic miscellaneous cultivation, the Hero King Gilgamesh returned from his spirit form to his physical form in a flash of golden light and appeared.

At the same time, he was wearing a set of golden armor for combat, and his makeup was very formal, which was in line with the style of regular warfare.

The people in the real world were surprised to see the King of Heroes appear. Irisviel showed a frightened expression, and Saber asked in surprise, "Archer, why are you here?"

The King of Conquerors chuckled and said, "Well, I accidentally ran into this guy during the day and just casually invited him."

After a pause, the King of Conquerors said to Gilgamesh, "You're a little late, Gimpika."

-

In the real world, people suddenly realized that this was exactly what the King of Conquerors and the King of Heroes were talking about when the Rider team met them in front of the arcade during the day.

This is actually not surprising. From the fact that the King of Conquerors came to Saber so carelessly to hold this banquet, it can be seen that the King of Conquerors is indeed someone who would do such a thing.

but……

Gold pickup?

Pfft!

Countless people around the world laughed.

This nickname is really appropriate.

The Hero King wears that glittering golden armor all day long, he really looks like a golden pickup truck.

Of course, there is no shortage of talented people in the real world, so soon someone felt that the nickname "Golden Flash" was more suitable for Gilgamesh than "Golden Pikachu".

After all, the Hero King not only wears gold, but also shines with gold every time he appears and disappears, and also shines with gold when he releases his treasure.

In addition, his hair also shines golden when reflected by the light. This hero king is called Gilgamesh, and he really deserves the name.

Thus, the nickname Jin Shanshan began to spread at the speed of a plague.

By the way, the first person to come up with this nickname was a girl named Toosaka Rin. After she said this nickname to her classmates in the complaining class, her classmates heard it and it spread immediately.

However, some people feel that the situation is not good. Being called Kinpika, are they sure that the moody Gilgamesh will not get furious?

In an instant, many people became nervous.

-

However, the Hero King on the screen showed no sign of anger at the title. He glanced around the scene before coldly saying, "How dare you choose such a lifeless place to hold your 'King's Banquet'? How are you going to apologize for troubling me to come here? Miscellaneous cultivator."

The voice was neither hurried nor slow, but there was a murderous aura in his voice as he spoke, filled with an infinite sense of oppression.

The two Masters at the scene felt the intense momentum and were frightened to the point of turning pale. Irisviel subconsciously took two steps back, while Waver was so frightened that he sat down on the ground in an ungraceful manner.

However, facing such a Gilgamesh, the King of Conquerors simply grinned and said, "I think the environment of this place is quite nice. Besides, you're late, so you should drink a drink first!"

As he spoke, he took out a new wooden wine glass, filled it with wine and handed it to Jin Shanshan.

Suddenly, Gilgamesh's red eyes looked at the King of Conquerors, and the atmosphere at the scene became solemn.

Seeing this, Saber moved her body slightly, keeping herself in a state where she could stand up and protect Irisviel at any time.

Seeing this, people in the real world became even more nervous, feeling that a fight would break out at any moment, and those who liked to watch the excitement kept shouting "Fight, fight!" and other inciting words.

However, a few seconds later, the fierce aura on Gilgamesh's body suddenly disappeared. He lowered his head to look at the wine glass handed to him by the Conqueror King. Unexpectedly, and even to the surprise of many people, he took it and took a sip.
