Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

69. Public execution

Lancelot is the strongest of the Round Table.

Basically, this is indeed true, if you don’t take into account the ‘too over-the-top cheesy character’.

For example - Galahad

The knight who surpassed King Arthur, the most holy knight, was also the knight who soon got tired of the world and passed away after gaining the power to surpass Arthur.

Knight Galahad, son of Lancelot.

There is basically nothing in this world that he cares about. He is a Servant who originally could not and would not appear in this world, because he has no worldly wishes such as wanting a second life.

Even if he appears due to direct or indirect reasons, he is basically dealt with passively. Mashu's situation is not a special case. Even if he became Koharu's follower through formal procedures, he never thought about partnering with Koharu as a servant. , but simply acted as a hands-off shopkeeper, giving the power to Xiaochun and letting her use it by herself. How much she can use depends on her own ability.

Even if Xiaochun was about to be beaten to death in front of Galahad, he would not take action, let alone waver in the slightest.

However, even so, even Galahad like this will have things he cares about, or the impulse to care about.

——Then Lancelot

Galahad is the illegitimate son of Sir Lancelot and the Holy Grail girl Elaine of Corbenic. Elaine is the daughter of the Fisherman King Pelais. Her father had used magic to predict that she would become Lance. Lot gave birth to the purest and noblest knight in the world and found the Holy Grail.

However, he also knew that Lancelot would not accept other women except his love, King Arthur's Queen Guinevere, so when Lancelot went to visit the Fisher King, the Fisher King used magic to Helping her daughter deceive Lancelot: Elaine disguised herself as Guinevere and successfully slept with her beloved knight.

Realizing that he had been deceived, Lancelot immediately wanted to kill Elaine angrily, but in the end he was unable to do so. After Gahalad was born, he grew up alone in the monastery.

Maybe it's because of the above reasons.

Galahad's Spiritual Embodiment, which has always had a nonchalant attitude, reacts only when Lancelot is mentioned.

Galahad is a knight of the next era. Although King Arthur is the recognized leader of the Round Table and Lancelot is the strongest knight of the Round Table, the premise of all this is that everyone agrees "if Sir Galahad is not counted." of.

The Knights of the Round Table, which is essentially a mercenary group of King Arthur fans, if the next leader after King Arthur is anyone else, even the strongest Lancelot, countless people will jump out to oppose it, but if If it were Galahad, everyone would think, "This is a matter of course."

Even Mordred, who had a bad mouth at most, would not object.

Among the Knights of the Round Table who wholesale wholesale holy swords, magic swords, and all kinds of weird protections, Galahad is also the most unconventional one.

As a knight, or as a saint, Galahad's standards are higher than Arthur's.

One of the important reasons why the Knights of the Round Table eventually fell apart was because Galahad, who was regarded as the successor, lost interest in the world and left the world early.

According to Solomon Roman.

Not counting the various additional magical weapons, Galahad has a "character" that far exceeds that of King Arthur himself. Even if he does not receive the protection of angel power or blessing, Galahad can still perform it if he is serious. Performance that is equal to or even better than this.

In terms of pure 'qualification', it is even higher than King Solomon, enough to rival King Solomon and the Crowned Time Temple combined.

Therefore, when Koharu wielded one of Galahad's Noble Phantasms, King Solomon's Sword and prayed for protection from Solomon, Roman's own mood was somewhat subtle.

Anyway.

When Achilles cannot move and must stay at the gate of the underworld to guard his retreat, besides Lu Mingfei, who else in the Chaldean army has the ability to possess both 'blessing' and 'angel' If Lancelot can resist, then only Galahad can.

How much of Galahad's power can Koharu unleash?

With Lancelot as his enemy, the key is how much energy Galahad is willing to exert.

Even in Chaldea's plan, the real goal of the Cairo Front is not to defeat Lancelot, but to find a way to hold him down, and then complete the digital transformation of the pyramids and the city, allowing the entire city to take everyone away. Road, ran to the underworld.

Chaldea had this plan from the beginning on how to deal with the city of Cairo that fell from the shattered Digital World.

Although he also seriously considered the possibility of rebelling against Lancelot.

But this kind of thing that is not sure of success is naturally one of the preliminary plans, not a real must-choose plan.

Overall, the main goal of the Cairo front is still - 'retreat'.

After many disasters and the miraculous actions of the Chaldean army, Leader Zhang's missionary operations went very smoothly. Let's not mention these for now.

Unless absolutely necessary, the resident believers in Cairo must still be protected.

After all.

Lancelot's reputation as the strongest at the Round Table is not just for nothing.

Perhaps on paper, Gawain, who received the amount of firepower (Michael) from the right, is higher, but Lancelot also received the power of the water from the rear (Gabriel).

Compared with Gawain, the 'blessing' received by Lancelot is more powerful. It is as powerful as the Lion King's favoritism towards Lancelot.

The ability to continue fighting is almost unlimited. Although it is not immortal, it is more difficult to deal with in a sense than the immortal body, because the immortal body is just 'immortal'. You only need to use the method of 'killing the immortal' to restrain it. There are many such stories in myths and legends around the world.

But Lancelot's blessing is to continuously improve the defense.

Simply improving defense, coupled with Lancelot's own fighting awareness, and Archangel Gabriel's spiritual base correction, will make Lancelot's already terrifying combat ability improve as the battle continues. becomes more difficult.

Unreasonable.

To deal with this unreasonable Lancelot, one can only use some even more unreasonable force.

For example - [Miracle]

Chaldea handed the [Miracle Badge] to Koharu, who was about to confront Lancelot.

Although it is also a plug-in of the badge series, Miracle Badge is not as stable as [Courage Badge] or [Friendship Badge], and its effect is not necessarily more powerful.

It's just a gamble and a try. If you can instigate rebellion, do it, but the fundamental goal is to delay time——

——This is how it should be.

However, the actual situation made everyone dumbfounded.

It wasn't just Chaldea who was dumbfounded.

Lancelot's army, which arrived with him, was also dumbfounded.

round table rebellion

This has happened before.

However, the knights of the Round Table are not the only ones who betrayed them. There are more knights who follow the Knights of the Round Table.

This is the legion now known as the ‘Serious Knights’.

It's basically a distinction between 'general' and 'soldier'.

Compared with the Knights of the Round Table who are generals, most of the knights are just ordinary people. Not all of them can be like those real heroic spirits and can make up their minds to "resolutely" punish the innocent.

A small number of people are determined to join "Suzheng".

A few betrayed the Round Table.

But apart from that, most of the knights were caught in painful entanglements.

Neither willing to betray the 'King', nor willing to wield a butcher's knife on innocent people.

These knights finally chose to pursue Lancelot.

Because Lancelot also fell into the same entanglement as them.

However, because of the Lion King's partiality towards Lancelot, Lancelot was able to continue to serve her under the throne even though his 'loyalty was not absolute'.

In a sense, this makes most of the ordinary knights' regiment become Lancelot's personal army.

It's quite hypocritical if you think about it carefully.

They said they didn't want to kill the civilians, but when faced with the innocent residents who were deceived by the Holy Judgment Ceremony, they did not help, but chose to ignore them.

As long as you can't see it, you can pretend it doesn't exist, and you'll feel better about it.

Actually.

A large part of the reason why Cairo was able to gather 100,000 refugees was because Lancelot and his private army drove the refugees in the direction of Cairo, intentionally or unintentionally.

Before the city of Cairo appeared, Lancelot and his troops even secretly established private camps to gather and care for the homeless refugees and prevent them from approaching the Holy Capital.

After the city of Cairo appeared, the refugees who had been secretly sheltered by Lancelot were 'driven' to Cairo.

"."

Therefore.

When Lancelot and his army were forced to "annihilate the city of Cairo" by the Lion King and Aguen, their morale naturally hit rock bottom.

A slowly marching army.

In front of them, on the only way to Cairo, a young girl appeared.

A girl dressed as a knight.

For some reason, Lancelot and Lancelot's knights felt inexplicably familiar with the figure they had seen for the first time. Is it because the armor style on his body is similar to that of the Knights of the Round Table? Or is it that the other party is imitating the Knights of the Round Table.

Thinking this way, the knights became even more ashamed.

That awe-inspiring figure, that figure that knew how to hit the stone with an egg but still stood in front of the Knights of the Round Table, made the knights even more embarrassed.

"——Let Lancelot come out!"

The knight girl roared.

Lancelot silently put on his helmet, hid the expression on his face, got off his horse, and came to the front of the legion.

"I'm going to duel you! If I beat you, I want you to go back!"

The girl's voice was full of anger and impulsive emotions. As a knight, this was not qualified.

"Sorry, I'm not qualified to promise you anything."

Lancelot sighed in his heart, and then silently pulled out his Lake Light Holy Sword.

"However, if you can duel knights, I will respect you and keep your skills and name in my heart - Knight, Lancelot, please advise."

Just give her a momentary, painless death.

Lancelot thought in his heart.

Grief, regret——

These feelings turned into dullness in the next moment.

"Knight! Galahad! Up!"

——What is this girl talking about?

Lancelot, the strongest warrior of the Round Table and known as the perfect knight, fell into a state of sluggishness that he shouldn't have during the knight's duel.

In a flash.

Xiaochun had already rushed in front of Lancelot, holding up the Sword of Solomon in his hand.

Lancelot was Lancelot after all. Even though he was confused and stunned because he heard 'that person's name', the instinct of the perfect knight still made him raise the Holy Sword of Lake Light and fight back instinctively.

The gap between the two sides is huge.

Lancelot was already powerful, and even more so, he had received blessings and the power of angels, and he was still at home in Jerusalem, the absolute holy land.

Even just an instinctive attack was enough to severely injure the thoughtless knight girl in front of her——

That's how it should be.

but.

The expected collision between swords did not come.

Instead there was a clash of swords and shields.

"Varied--"

It was not just Lancelot who lost his voice because of too much shock, but also all the Knights of the Round Table present.

The special effect of pink petals was flying over the battlefield. Of course, the Knights of the Round Table could tell at a glance that this was Merlin's illusion - this was the effect they wanted.

It was Prelati who took action.

Amidst the gorgeous petal special effects, she projected a close-up of Lancelot and Koharu's battle into the sky, and spread the sound to ensure that every knight present could see and hear it clearly.

Then, all the knights heard the girl's voice, and all the knights saw clearly what the 'shield' in the girl's hand was.

"Do you recognize it? Lancelot! And all the knights present! You all recognize what this is!"

The strongest Lancelot, the attack of the Lake Light Holy Sword shining with angelic brilliance failed to do any damage to the cross shield in Koharu's hand.

of course.

Although it looks like a shield on the outside, it is actually a mimicry of conceptual weapons.

This shield.

This shield of Galahad—

Just seeing it, many Knights of the Round Table knelt on the ground, as if a drowning person had lost the last straw and lost the will to fight.

"In front of this 'round table'! How long will you bastards continue to deceive yourself and others and follow the wrong path!?"

Koharu waved the shield of the round table.

Galahad's spiritual energy has never burned with such high fighting spirit!

Then, blast Lancelot away with his sword and that unpleasant helmet!

The Knights of the Round Table cannot harm this shield.

Because this shield is the round table.

The so-called round table is a place where heroes gather and a symbol of equality and glory.

Just like in ancient Celtic mythology, heroes gain power through oaths (geass). The more stringent the oath, the stronger the power. The round table itself is a symbol of the oaths sworn by countless knights of the round table.

Oaths can never be broken.

Therefore, all knights who swear to the Round Table will never be able to harm this shield in the slightest.

--and

In the oath of the Round Table, there is a content that "the knights who swear to the Round Table are equal regardless of their high or low status."

Because of this, Koharu wielding this shield, facing Lancelot with full buffs in front of him, can also use the effect of this Geass to forcibly bridge the gap between spiritual foundations!
