Now it's Total War II.

Ding! !

Irisviel withdrew her gaze from the golden boat, and was surprised to see that "Kuyu Maiya" had just launched an assassination, and her dagger hit a layer of solid ice only half a meter away from her.

This is a square ice shield that looks like a whole piece of glass. Although the ice splashed everywhere after being pierced by the dagger, it is still intact as a whole, firmly and resolutely preventing it from getting closer.

"Damn it!" Kakiku Umaiya put away her dagger and exerted force on her feet, as if she was going to bypass the ice shield and continue to attack, but the ice shield continued to block her as it spun with self-awareness.

this is……

"Assassin?" Irisviel asked uncertainly. She was not suspecting that the pretender was not an Assassin, but was wondering how the other party passed through the defensive barrier without triggering the alarm - after all, it was her own daughter. She gave considerable trust to the enchantment that was arranged.

"[Also, there is this kind of operation, operation?]" Illya's voice came intermittently through the magic barrier, and there was also a strange echo as if she was in an empty space—she was indeed building a workshop underground , Alice Viel thought so.

"[No wonder the title is 'Hundred Faces',]" When everyone was guarding against "Maiya Jiuyu" who stepped back a few steps and missed a blow, Ilya continued: "[She can change into a specific target. It looks like, even if you check with the root, it is impossible to go wrong with the big magic, and you will think that she is the target.]”

"That's why she can break into the magic barrier? Have you figured out how to adjust it?" Irisviel stared at "Kyuu Maiya" with dissatisfaction. Fortunately, this assassin turned into Maiya, if it was Kiritsugu... Even if he stabbed it with a dagger, he wouldn't be able to block it.

"[Actually, there is no need to adjust much...]" Irisviel noticed that the future daughter had a mischievous tone when she said this: "[Did you know? Hisau Maiya became 'Illya's' Stepmother~]”

...?

Boom! !

Before understanding the meaning of this sentence, the ice shield suddenly thickened and expanded to the point where it could be called an "ice wall", and then slammed into Assassin not far away at a speed that could not be distinguished by the naked eye. , she was blown out of the courtyard before she could react.

"【This layer of enchantment that is dedicated to defending ordinary people is called 'Bingxin Lock', and it is activated based on the 'acceptance' of the target at the center of the enchantment. Strangers can't even approach the courtyard.]" Ilya took Explained proudly: "[Don't worry about changing Kiritsugu, she will be seen through when she transforms into a master with a magical link with a heroic spirit.]"

Therefore, if there were no mutations and mutual cooperation in this Holy Grail War, if this Assassin pretended to be the master's relatives and friends, the success rate of the assassination should be very high. Now we can only change Maiya... these are not important.

"Ilyasviel von Einsbern, I think you need to explain what you said just now," Irisviel asked with a smile, "About 'stepmother'."

"[Uh...well, I don't know the specific situation. You haven't come back, but Kiritsugu has settled in Fuyuki. Ten years later, when I joined the war, I found that I had an extra brother...]" Illya's response It seems a bit incoherent.

"Ten years later? Not sixty years? What went wrong in this war?" Illya always thought that it was after sixty years of continuous transformation and learning that Illya gained a powerful ability, and in the new After winning the Holy Grail War, it took a longer time to become what she called the "King of the End", and then traveled through time and space to appear as Caster.

Doesn't sound like that at all now? Irisviel even put aside the "stepmother" matter and began to ask about it.

"[Uh... oops! Assassin rushed in!]" After a false exclamation, Illya cut off the contact.

"This child is really..." Irisviel helplessly turned her gaze to the three scarred black figures who burst into the courtyard, and gave instructions to the servants around her.

"Saber, destroy them."

"Rider, that is..."

Without concealing himself at all, the glittering golden falcon-shaped boat can be clearly seen from the balcony on the second floor of the mansion, and Weber naturally has no doubts about this obvious aircraft.

It was a gray steel behemoth with a ferocious appearance. It had a triangular flat streamlined body, huge wings twice the length of its body, and a ferocious missile hanging from its lower abdomen. It was obviously a fighter jet that could only be manufactured by modern industry.

And Gilgamesh was standing above the plane, staring at Rider on the balcony with cold eyes.

Although Weber was also present at the banquet of the three kings, he did not understand the true meaning of Gilgamesh's [King's Treasure]'s ability to "obtain all the 'extensions' of the 'prototype'" until now.

"Northrop Grumman B-2 stealth strategic bomber!" Originally, Weber just subconsciously asked the question, but Iskandar beside him suddenly stood up and answered loudly, and the burst of fighting spirit even ignited the flames.

No, that wasn't flames, it was the crimson armor and cloak that Rider put on after taking off the black suit in an instant.

"Hahaha! It was your mistake to let the King of Conquerors see such a good thing! The King of Heroes!" Iskandar waved his hand and thunder and lightning flashed, and the Shenwei Wheel appeared on the second-floor terrace with dazzling lightning.

"I'll blow you away and snatch it back!" "Wait!"

Waver reached out and grabbed Rider's thick cloak as he jumped onto the bullock cart.

"Little devil, what's your opinion on my conquest?" Although he was asking Weber, Rider's eyes were still fixed on the plane in the sky, as if the other party would run away in the blink of an eye.

No, no, this situation is very problematic. With Tokiomi Tohsaka's intelligence gathering ability, he must be very aware of Rider's fascination with modern military and its weapons. Summoning this kind of thing at him will easily lure Rider away. ,so……

This is to tune the tiger away from the mountain.

"I want to go with you!" Weber grabbed Iskandar's cloak and climbed onto the chariot, then turned his head and said quickly to Lancer: "You can't fly, go to Teacher Kenneth and Mrs. Sola to protect them immediately, Pay special attention to whether there is anything strange about Amir."

Even if there is no problem with Amir herself, the command spell and her special features that have not been researched are hidden dangers.

"...Understood." As a warrior with rich combat experience, Diarmuid easily understood the meaning of Weber's words. He was not very interested in the current war machine, so he glanced at the bomber and turned into The spirit body disappears.

"Huh? Is that a trap?" Rider withdrew his scorching gaze from B2, and looked at Weber: "If you judge that you shouldn't attack, I will accept it."

"No, based on the personality of this Heroic Spirit that we know, he would not set a trap out of his confidence in his own strength..." Weber thought quickly, while responding to Iskandar.

Gilgamesh, who was standing above the cockpit of B2, didn't say a word, just kept a sneer and watched the interaction between Weber and Iskandar with murderous blood red eyes.

"Attack," Weber came to the final conclusion after analysis: "Do as you thought at the beginning, even if this is indeed some kind of trap, the opponent's strongest combat power will still be caught here."

And Luna and Diarmuid completely restrain each other's Assassin and Berserker, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

"Follow me." Gilgamesh said coldly: "The battle between kings does not require common people to judge."

The next moment, the B2 bomber, which was not supposed to maintain a hovering attitude, soared into the sky.

71:25:48

When Gilgamesh's brilliant boat had just arrived at the foot of the mountain, Kenneth had already woken up—although he also had a good dream.

He now fully understands why Caster took the initiative to help him improve his strength.

During the Battle of Einzbern Castle, Berserker, who was supposed to drive the Kamui wheel to destroy the barrier, was intercepted by Rider and Caster and was seriously injured. It seems that he has not recovered until now.

Since the barrier still existed, Assassins couldn't sneak into the castle, and Kenneth just took Weber to attack Tohsaka Mansion, so these Assassins who couldn't return to help attacked their own Floating Void City and the incompletely furnished mansion. As a result, both battlefields dealt heavy damage to Assassin at the same time.

Afterwards, Rider also took away the little Emir who is currently unknown but seems to be very important to Assassin as a whole.

After this battle, Tohsaka Tokiomi's heroic spirit's combat power was completely lost, while Kenneth and the others not only kept their strength intact, but even strengthened it.

As the defender in that battle, the Emiya Kiritsugu camp lost its well-protected stronghold, and the two Sabers who faced Gilgamesh head-on also lost their fighting power, and they have completely hidden themselves at present, although Caster is still outside Active, but Tohsaka Tokiomi would not regard them as a threat at all.

No matter how many coincidences and accidents caused this result—for example, it was Tokiomi who attacked the Hyatt Hotel first and snatched the bullock cart earlier—they will have to face Tohsaka Tokiomi’s full blow , and the one who made the move could only be the gleaming golden ancient king.

The King of Heroes driving Rider away with some kind of modern flying machine is indeed a way to get rid of the tiger, but it is still unclear whether the opponent's purpose is to trip Iskandar and take the opportunity to attack the mansion to rescue Amir, or to completely destroy Rider, the tiger.

No matter what the specific purpose is, the left-behind personnel of the mansion have no way to interfere with the battlefield in the sky, because neither Luna nor Diarmuid can fly for a long time, so they can only hope that Weber will go with them.

After Lancer returned to aid, Kenneth persuaded Sola to bring Amir to the center of the mansion "between controls", so that, under the protection and monitoring of the two masters and two servants, regardless of the opponent's remaining combat power What they want to do—for example, Ryunosuke Uyu, Kirei Kotomine, the remaining Assassins, and even Tokiomi Tohsaka himself will not easily achieve their goals.
