Why fight the Holy Grail War? Let's play cards!

"No matter what you call it, it's really annoying."

This is largely why Jiang You and Gilgamesh are at odds. If it were a beautiful girl, calling someone a "trash" would be fine. But can you imagine a big northern guy calling you a "coward" the moment he catches you? It's a good thing you don't fight him.

"Humph, a miscellaneous cultivator is a miscellaneous cultivator. Only this way of addressing him is worthy of me."

A Shan said stubbornly, "He knows he can't beat Jiang You, so this is the only way to get back at him."

274

Chapter 274 You are stronger now.

"What a troublesome Noble Phantasm! One King is enough in this world!"

C-Shan looked at himself as Archer and felt inexplicably unhappy.

"You're the imposter, right?"

A-Shan won't let himself get away with it. He even scolded himself in the fifth game, let alone this?

C Flash suddenly realized that this version of himself knew Jiang You. Jiang You and him clearly had a bad relationship, and Jiang You had said he wanted to defeat him a third time. This meant that Jiang You had encountered this version of himself before, which explained Jiang You's hostility towards him. In other words, it was because A Flash had provoked Jiang You that Jiang You, determined to retaliate, even at this moment, against him.

"You really deserve to die!"

C Shan understood what kind of person he was when he was younger. This was nothing unusual. Although Jiang You couldn't distinguish between the important and the urgent, he had to take responsibility for the trouble he had caused.

"?"

A-Shan was confused by the inexplicable murderous intent from himself.

"Even so, I will not hand over victory to you!"

C Shan thought Jiang You should prioritize things. "I activate the effect of [Gilgamesh A] and place a [King's Treasury] from the deck onto the battlefield..."

"Before that, I activate my last face-up card, [Heaven's Chain]! You should be familiar with the effect of this card! I negate the effect of your [Gilgamesh A]!"

The chains that bound the divinity tied up A Flash tightly, and the King's Treasure could not be successfully activated.

"As expected, the people you defeated and their corresponding cards will appear in your deck."

Gilgamesh also understood some of the rules for Jiang You to obtain cards. At this time, he had no room to move and could only hope that the [Holy Whore] would break the entire field to prevent destruction and block the next attack.

"I change [Enkidu] to Defense Position, ending my turn."

"Then, my turn, draw a card!"

Jiang You could see Gilgamesh's graveyard, and he could also see the effect of the power-up. "It's over. I'm activating the effect of [White Spear]! I'll remove two Xyz Materials and destroy all face-up Servants on your field!"

Continuous destruction in the frontcourt can put a lot of pressure on the opponent when their defense is not broken. Otherwise, how could Lightning Strike be a friend to novices?

"My dear friend, I'm leaving this up to you!"

Because the effect of A flash has been sealed, which is equivalent to a blank board with 3000 attack power, so C flash leaving [Enkidu] who can continue to block the effect is the best choice.

"I'm Enkidu's only true friend!"

A Shan didn't know what was wrong with him, he was just jealous of himself.

"You old thing should go to the grave soon."

C Shan didn't want to say anything more to this guy. It was obvious that this guy was the dead one, but he still had to stay and clean up his mess.

The huge light gun that fell from the sky sank into the ground with the power to destroy the world.

"I activate the effect of the [Holy Prostitute] in the graveyard! Banish it to replace [Enkidu] being destroyed!"

Gilgamesh successfully saved Enkidu.

"Just make it through this round."

With Enkidu's 3000 defense and the ability to block Servant effects, there's no need to worry about Jiang You using a 3000 attack Servant to defeat him directly. As long as he holds on, a comeback is possible. Now that Jiang You no longer has Camelot, he can leverage direct damage to win the duel.

"I told you, it's over, there's no next round!"

Jiang You chose the fastest way to end it all. "I activate the Quick Attack Spell Card, [Origin Bullet]! Select a Servant on the field, negate its effect, and destroy it!"

Enzidu was pierced through the chest by the incoming bullet, leaving a huge hole in his body. This kind of damage should have had no effect on Enzidu, who was made of mud, but Enzidu's body still began to recover from the hole and turned back into mud.

"How dare you!"

C-Shan reacted like the other Gilgamesh.

"Enter the combat stage!"

Gilgamesh was very angry, but this was not something Jiang You needed to consider. Now his mission was about to be completed. "【White Spear】Launch a direct attack on Gilgamesh!"

The 3500 attack damage directly cleared out Gilgamesh's health.

Gilgamesh LP 3000 → LP 0!

“Aaaaaaa—”

Gilgamesh flew backwards, because this was the highest point of the divine tower. Gilgamesh had close contact with every step along the way, and the sound of flesh colliding with the stone steps was endless.

"Wang! He!!"

Siduri hurried over and helped Gilgamesh up. Actually, this level of damage didn't pose much of a threat to Gilgamesh, but he was so weak that he couldn't exert any strength, so he looked extremely embarrassed.

"Thank you for your hard work, Bai Qiangdai."

Jiang You looked at Bai Qiangdai who was disappearing and said thank you. Her single card effect was quite good. He could play with her more often in the future and improve his favorability at the same time.

"If it's okay, please call me Altria."

Bai Qiangdai felt that it was too frivolous to call herself like that in such an occasion, and she was also curious about why she was addressed in that way.

"If possible, please call me by my real name during battle. Also...how did you get this nickname?"

"because this."

Jiang You tapped his forehead to let Bai Qiangdai notice his ahoge.

"Besides, there are too many Altrias. You have to differentiate them. Besides, you have the black one."

"Is that so?"

Bai Qiangdai nodded, not quite understanding. She didn't know to what extent Jiang You said it was too much.

"Then it's time to say goodbye. Call me when you need me. As long as it's a just act, I will definitely respond to you."

Jiang You shifted his gaze to the side. What he was doing now was not a righteous act. It was just for the cards. It was an unnecessary fight.

After Bai Qiangdai disappeared, Jiang You glanced at his mission progress. The battle with the Heroic Spirits was over, with Ushiwakamaru easily defeated by Minamoto no Raikou. "After all, are you still as smart as your ancestors?" As for the battle with Shuten, because Merlin had been holding back, Musashibo simply wasn't strong enough to stand up to Ibaraki. So, Matthew was currently holding on, and Minamoto no Raikou wasn't likely to come to Shuten's aid, so the battle there would likely continue for a while.

As Baimao took off his disguise, all the soldiers defending the south were killed, and Jiang You's mission of eliminating humans was nearing its end.

"It's almost time to end."

Jiang You suddenly said this in front of Jin Shanshan.

"!"

Jin Shanshan was startled, and despite the dark game's strength, he stood up. "You are stronger now, but human nature will never end in my hands... I have no intention of killing this sinner yet, so I will let you enter destruction with me..."

"Pause."

The Uruk-related missions had been completed. Jiang You interrupted Jin Shanshan's death rattle, which was about to drag Jiang You along with him, and asked, "Who said we want to destroy human nature?"

Chapter 1 4 Days Later Talk 3 (Part )

“Maiya, here comes the mission.”

After confirming the safety of the room several times, Kiritsugu Emiya activated the shielding device before sharing the mission information with Hisau Maiya.

"This time the target is the person in the photo."

Maiya took the photo. It showed a girl with bright red hair. The girl was lazily lying on the sofa, her bare feet casually fiddling with her high heels. Maiya always felt that this thing looked a bit like a private photo. Generally speaking, shouldn't the mission target be the kind of candid photos taken from a distance?

But this was not a rare thing, as she and Kiritsugu had also received commissions for murders of passion.

"Everyone, pay attention to the blood. Our target this time is codenamed 'Bawanshi', a magician skilled in blood magic and curses."

Kiritsugu presented the information provided by his informant. "She's a complete villain with a twisted quirk. Her hobby is collecting high heels. She'll even chop off someone's feet if she likes them. Whatever her motive, we must eliminate her. In two days, she'll be trading extremely rare magecraft materials at a remote train station. I hear it's related to the Holy Grail. This is our chance."

"A magician?"

This wasn't the first time Maiya had faced a magician as her opponent. A magician's strength was greatly reduced when he left his workshop, and without preparation, his defense was no different from that of an ordinary person.

"Is this codename the vampire goblin from Scottish legend? It's very likely a Dead Apostle. Be prepared in advance."

"Yes, the anti-Dead Apostle bullets are ready. Because the enemy is good at curse magic, this attack will mainly be a long-range sniping attack. Before that, we need to conduct a good on-site survey and determine the sniping point."

Emiya Kiritsugu opened the guitar-shaped box and took out the sniper rifle hidden inside. He then pulled out some blue work clothes. "I've already arranged my cover. I'm a railway maintenance worker, so I won't appear suspicious during the next investigation. There's also a work manual in the pocket of my clothes. Take some time to read it tonight so you don't leave too many flaws."

"understand!"

Maiya changed into her clothes with ease.

Two days flew by.

“Is this method really reliable?”

Yao Cui shook off her windbreaker. She was not used to wearing such modern clothes. She still liked the way she wore it in the fairy kingdom.

"Is it so troublesome to get a card?"

"That's nothing we can do. Even Irisviel can't figure out Kiritsugu's whereabouts, and the informant can only contact Kiritsugu. He can't tell when Kiritsugu will appear. We can't just sit here and wait for him."

Jiang You planned to do some work while he was at it, so he brought Illya and Baimao with him. "Illya, I'll leave the rest to you."

"no problem."

Illya nodded, "I also want to hear his current thoughts."

"Is there something interesting? Why don't you tell me about it?"

Yao Cui came over.

"It's just to fill in a skipped plot for him."

Jiang You handed Bai Mao a marked map and said, "Let's take a look at the specific thoughts of our righteous companions now."

At night, the bright chirping of insects echoes in the quiet night sky.

This is a rarely visited train station. The surrounding civil offices have been moved away one after another over the past few decades due to urban reconstruction. Only this abandoned station still has a few street lights in operation.

“Maiya, the target has arrived at the designated location. Can you see it from your side?”

Kiritsugu used the telescope to see a bright pink girl appear in his field of vision. The girl was carrying a huge suitcase that was big enough to fit an adult.

"I can see it clearly, damn it!"

Maiya gasped as she looked at the terrifying magic power emanating from "Ba Wanxi". The other party had no intention of holding back and just unleashed his magic power openly as he moved forward.

"She doesn't even care about hiding the mysterious lines. Long-range attacks like this probably won't have any effect! And this magic power is even stronger than those Servants in the Holy Grail War! Where on earth did a monster of this level come from?!"

"As expected, you can't expect common sense from someone who cuts off people's feet just because she feels like it."

Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to light a cigarette to ease his irritation. Although the other party had given detailed information, the intensity was still too high. Who issued such a commission? "Let's wait for an opportunity. If all else fails, we'll activate Plan B and blow her and the train station up into the sky!"

Without saying a word, Emiya Kiritsugu directly used a bomb to clear the way. With such a high-yield explosion at close range, even a magus would not be able to block it.

"Wait, Maiya, don't act rashly for now. The person she's dealing with has already appeared. Anyone who can deal with someone of her level must be no pushover. Don't alert them. I've installed bugs in the waiting room and the ticket office security room. You can gather some intelligence first."

Although allowing the two to enter the building would result in loss of vision, Kiritsugu had already prepared follow-up measures.

"Go to designated Point No. 2, which offers the best view of the train station."

Kiritsugu skillfully set out his recording equipment, put on his headphones, and began to gather intelligence.

"Keep in touch and evacuate at any time if the situation is not right."

During this period, you cannot directly see the target's location, so you must be careful about your whereabouts and not expose yourself.

But what Emiya Kiritsugu feared most happened. Several gunshots were heard from the headset that was communicating with Maiya, and then the sound of the headset falling to the ground was heard. A few seconds later, someone seemed to pick up the headset.

"Mr. Emiya Kiritsugu."

It was a male voice, and Emiya Kiritsugu's heart sank. Maiya might have been killed, or in the best case, she was captured.

"You're really hard to find. Let's play a game."

Emiya Kiritsugu said nothing, but simply abandoned his valuable tools and began to retreat. The other party might be planning to use this method to locate him, which was not impossible for a magus.
