"I never expected that even ARCHER almost lost."

Looking at the girl in front of him, the young priest couldn't help but sigh, while the hunting girl held the longbow in her hand without saying a word.

"Sister, is the enemy ASSASSIN?"

Looking at the girl's expression, Red RIDER holding the spear asked solemnly, and Red ARCHER nodded.

"Judging from their cooperation and actions, this should be the case."

Since Red ARC didn't have the skill of seeing through the real name like Jeanne, he didn't know the real identity and class of Hei. However, judging from the sudden attack and the subsequent fierce attack, he obviously didn't seem to be the class that would fight the enemy head-on. Not to mention...

"Before they took action, I was completely unaware of their presence. Apart from the fact that they were obscured by Assassin's aura, there is basically no other possibility."

"It seems that this master-servant pair is really tricky."

Hearing this, Red ASSASSIN, who was sitting on the other side, also frowned. Although they knew before that Black's ASSASSIN had killed Red Saber, most people still thought they were lucky. But now it seems that the opponent's strength is far beyond their imagination. In fact, if Red ARCHER's inherent skill had not saved her life, then the Red side would have had a third player eliminated.

"But no matter what, Black Saber has also left the stage, which is good news for us. Although another Command Seal was consumed, at least ARCHER is still here safe and sound, which is enough."

"I'm so sorry."

Hearing the young priest's comfort, Red ARCHER lowered his head and apologized solemnly. After all, it was his own carelessness that led to the consumption of the Command Spells, and this was an indisputable fact.

"No need to apologize, this isn't your fault. Besides... since Black Saber has already left the field, it's almost time for us to start the battle before the other party can react."

"That's right."

Speaking of this, Red ASSASSIN also showed a proud smile.

"Since it is a war, let it come with great fanfare..."

"That's true, but you built the castle and prepared for a siege. Why are you saying this again?"

Red Rider looked at the Red Assassin sitting on the throne with curiosity. She was a woman with long black hair and a long black dress. From her appearance, she didn't look like an assassin at all, but more like a queen in a high position. In fact, she was exactly like that. Although she was summoned as an Assassin, it would be more appropriate to call her a "murderer" rather than an "assassin".

Semiramis - Queen of Assyria, she poisoned her husband and ruled Assyria as regent for decades. However, in this Holy Grail War, she not only has the authority of Assassin, but also has the class ability of Caster, which makes her a very scary enemy.

However, what puzzled the Red Servant was that since the beginning of the Holy Grail War, the Queen had not done anything related to ASSASSIN. She just hid in the rear and concentrated on building her own royal city. If the Red Servant had not summoned CASTER, everyone would have thought that she was planning to use CASTER's skills to create a position.

Hearing Red RIDER's question, Red ASSASSIN chuckled.

"A siege? RIDER, you are mistaken. My Noble Phantasm, 'Vanity's Sky Garden' is not for defense, but for offense."

attack?

Hearing this, RIDER, ARCHER and LANCER looked at each other in bewilderment, not understanding what ASSASSIN meant. Could it be that this castle could actually run away on its own?

"Okay, ASSASSIN, stop keeping us in suspense."

As the owner of the Red ASSASSIN, the young priest smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Let's prepare to start the action. Now that the Black side has lost Saber and is busy taming the Red Berserker, this is the best time for us. We no longer have an advantage in numbers and strength. If we can't even grasp the opportunity, then things will probably get even more troublesome next time."

"Understood, Master."

Hearing the young priest's order, Red ASSASSIN smiled slightly, then she reached out and gently stroked the gem on the armrest of the throne.

The next moment, the whole castle began to shake.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Noticing the shaking, the other servants hurriedly left the hall and came to the balcony outside. They looked around and widened their eyes in surprise - they saw that the dense forest and lake around them were no longer there, but instead an empty sky.

This courtyard, this royal city, is now suspended in the air!

Seeing this scene, the young priest smiled excitedly.

"Well, everyone... prepare for the real battle."

The huge sky courtyard slowly moved forward, heading towards the Thousand Worlds Tree Castle...

"This is really exaggerated..."

Looking at the image projected on the screen, Fang Zheng's eyes widened in surprise and he couldn't help but whistle. When they were fighting in the forest before, just in case, he also set up a Doraemon to keep an eye on the movements of the red servants. Originally, Fang Zheng just wanted to follow the clues to find the opponent's base camp, but he didn't expect to get unexpected information.

Fang Zheng had to admit that the Red Team had played its trump card this time. Facing such a sky city, it was obviously impossible to defeat it with the current strength of the Black Team's servants.

Of course... that's not entirely true.

"It's really troublesome...but I'd better inform them."

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng sighed, then he stood up, walked out of the room, grabbed a mannequin, and gave him an order.

"Go inform all other masters that the red team is planning to group up and push the middle."

"Yes, sir."

Although the android didn't quite understand what Fang Zheng meant, he nodded and quickly turned and left. At the same time, Kuang San also appeared behind Fang Zheng.

"Do you need my help, Mr. Founder?"

"No, you just need to take good care of Yoshino and the others here. As long as you don't act rashly, the other party shouldn't attack you. But if these idiots are stupid enough to dare to attack you, then don't be polite, just show your strength and kill them."

"Is it really possible?"

Hearing this, Kuang San smiled and blinked.

"Didn't you always ask us to hide our strength before?"

"Since the other party has already planned to push the middle, it is obvious that they want to finish the job in one wave. It just so happens that I also want to finish it in one wave. If we can really succeed, then there is no need to hide our strength. In short... I leave these little guys to you."

"Don't worry, but... aren't you going to take Hei or Illya to the battlefield this time?"

“This time it’s different.”

As he spoke, Fang Zheng looked out the window at the androids patrolling the square.

"This is not just a fight between servants, but a fight between the armies of two forces. They are still children, and it is not suitable for them to witness such a scene."

"It's not good to spoil them too much, Mr. Fang Zheng. They can't live under your wings forever."

"A baby bird needs to have strong wings before it can fly."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng turned and left.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Kuang San stood in the shadows, watching Fang Zheng's receding back with a smile on her face, then she shook her head gently.

"Mr. Fang Zheng really dotes on those children too much... This is not wrong. But... sometimes, they still have to make their own decisions."
