Abnormal month

Einzbern's castle.

This place was originally covered with several huge barriers, blocking curses and monsters.

The one living here is Illyasviel von Einzbern, the contestant of this Holy Grail War.

Originally, thanks to the barriers covering the surroundings, this should be a rare paradise in the wild, and even pets can be kept.

But today.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the barrier shattered.

The muscle-like monster was like a missile, running fast on the dark plain.

Another dark figure was as petite as a girl, but it moved back and forth like a knife.

The steel muscle monster and the dignified girl swordsman kept colliding.

Every collision caused the earth to sink and the wind to rage.

The flying sand and rocks made the sky and the earth lose their color.

The earth was shaking violently.

The monster, with muscles like cast iron, held a huge axe in his hand, and slashed at the sword-wielding girl and the ground under her feet with a force like a rocket.

The swordswoman was fearless, with no emotion on her indifferent face. The magic power penetrated her body like a substance, covering the dark holy sword, forming a blood-red sword, and met it head-on.

Under the violent roar, the ground shattered like a spider web, forming a deep pit several feet high.

The two sides of the battle flew backwards, and hot blood splashed out at the scene.

Then, both sides quickly stabilized their bodies and rushed towards each other like high-speed trains. In the fierce confrontation, the turbulent wind formed a sharp blade, cutting the ground into pieces.

The deafening collision sound was like an endless war drum, without a second of gap, which hurt people's eardrums.

"Impossible! How is it possible...!?"

At the door of the castle, Illya looked panicked.

"In such a short time, Berserker's life has passed away three times! What happened to that blackened Saber? My Berserker is clearly invincible!"

The Servant summoned by Einzbern in this Holy Grail War is Hercules of the Berserker class, the foremost hero in Greek mythology, who was promoted to Hercules by the great god Zeus after his death.

But when Hercules appeared as a Berserker, most of his abilities were sealed.

The only treasure, the Twelve Trials, can store life, and its defense is also very good. When dealing with opponents with similar strength, it will slowly form a huge advantage like a snowball, which is very sharp.

But if he encounters an opponent with stronger hard power than himself, he will be as powerless as a giant wooden stake.

Seriously speaking, it is almost impossible to encounter a Servant stronger than Hercules in a normal Holy Grail War.

But these days, what normal Holy Grail War is there?

Even in this world, the seemingly normal five battles this time also reveal a taste of madness.

And this time.

When the opponent was the blackened Saber, Berserker also suffered a great loss.

The blackened Saber's magic power seemed to be endless. With the blessing of the magic release skill, her hand-to-hand combat strength greatly surpassed Hercules.

The life stored in his treasure was also constantly reduced under the fierce attack of the blackened Saber.

It was not an instant death.

It was like after the death penalty was announced, you waited for that moment to come.

Berserker's constantly decreasing life was like a countdown before the death penalty, which brought Illya a strong anxiety.

"... What is that?"

Toosaka Rin covered her mouth tightly and lowered her voice.

She was afraid that the sound squeezed out of her throat by accident would attract the attention of the two monsters in the field.

Even so, her words were still full of fear.

The battle between the blackened Saber and Berserker has surpassed the imagination of ordinary people about the battle of heroes. Their speed, strength, and destructive power are far beyond the realm of humans.

They were like a human-shaped artillery cluster, with one sword they cut a deep pit in the ground, and one knife they tore the wall like paper.

The fragile human body could not withstand such destruction at all.

Even a light aftermath could easily kill people.

As long as they were human, they could not avoid such fear.

Roy stood beside Rin Tohsaka.

The expression on his face was equally stern.

After learning that the blackened Saber had begun to act and was directly aiming at the Einzbern castle, he immediately rushed over with Rin Tohsaka.

The battle in front of him was indeed frightening, but his emotions were relatively stable.

Therefore, he also had an inexplicable doubt in his heart.

"Why did the blackened Saber target Berserker?"

The blackened servants had been outside Fuyuki City for more than a day.

Before, they had been staying in their respective territories, not interfering with each other, and not moving.

Why did the blackened Saber suddenly take action, and also target Berserker here?

Was it to eliminate the opponent for the Holy Grail?

Then he wouldn't go after Berserker who is so strong first.

If he wants to eliminate opponents, he should start with the weak ones, eliminate all other opponents step by step, and then play against the strongest one.

Although the action logic of the blackened Saber is different from that of the blue Saber, in theory, the blackened Saber is more tactically sharp and more ruthless, and will not make such basic mistakes.

She is rational, and she will never have such arrogant thoughts as "clear out the strongest first, and then clean up the remaining garbage."

Roy frowned, his eyes patrolling back and forth in the field.

"Archer, how far can you fight against these two people?"

Toosaka Rin asked her servant with a heavy heart.

After seeing the battle scene, she had already made up her mind that her Archer would definitely not be able to beat those two servants in a head-on battle.

She had to think about how far Archer could go with those two people as opponents, and prepare means of support.

"Well... I can roughly guess what you're thinking, but give up, Rin, don't think about fighting those two servants alone. Berserker's Noble Phantasm can store life, and it must be killed twelve times or more to kill. As for the blackened Saber, she is simply too strong, but because of her simple strength, she is also difficult to deal with. To face them as opponents, she can only join forces with others."

Archer's cold and helpless sigh sounded in Rin's heart.

On the way here, she already knew Archer's real name, knew that he was a heroic spirit living in modern times, and knew some information about the heroic spirits in the normal five wars.

But the world line has changed so much that knowing a little real name is meaningless.

"Roy, you——Huh? Where did he go?!"

Rin Tohsaka wanted to ask Roy for his opinion.

But when she looked back, Roy disappeared without a trace!

"He just left, and so did his servant."

Archer's voice came, and through the voice, she could imagine his helpless look with his hands on his waist.
