“This is really…”
Looking at the horizon in the distance, the masters of the Thousand World Tree were all stunned. When they first received Fang Zheng's notice, they thought it was a joke, but when they used magic to see the huge fortress floating in the sky, even the magicians were shocked.
Although Qianjieshu had anticipated various attack methods of the Red Team, they had never expected such a "generous" attack method.
“Clatter…”
Countless teeth scattered down from the aerial courtyard and fell on the plain in front of the Thousand Worlds Tree Castle. Then, these huge teeth began to quickly transform into dragon tooth soldiers that looked like skeleton ghosts. They silently held weapons made of bones, formed a huge army, and walked towards the castle under the leadership of the aerial fortress.
"ARHCER, how is the fortress now?"
"It has stopped moving."
Black ARCHER answered Fiore's question.
"It seems that the other party intends to use this plain as a battlefield."
"Indeed."
Danic snorted coldly, then he turned his head and glanced at Fiore beside him.
"Go back, Fiore. The next step is for the servants to fight. All we can do as magicians is to support them."
“That’s right.”
Along with this voice, Vlad III appeared out of thin air, and at the same time, several other servants also quietly came to the city wall.
Vlad III just stared coldly at the army of Dragon Tooth Soldiers in the distance, with flames of anger in his eyes.
"They dared to step into my territory without permission and spread these filthy skeleton soldiers. They are so audacious and reckless. They must be punished!"
"Of course, King."
Danic bowed his head respectfully to Vlad III.
"Please release your power as much as you can. I will be here to witness your victory."
After saying this, Danic turned and left. Fiore hesitated for a moment, then looked at Fang Zheng who was standing beside her.
"Um, Mr. Fang Zheng, you..."
"I will go to the battlefield with my servants to see if there is any chance to fish in troubled waters. After all, my servants can't play any role in a direct battle."
"Is that so..."
After hearing Fang Zheng's answer, Fiore's face showed a hint of dejection, but soon she shook her head and spoke again with a smile on her face.
"Well, I wish you a safe journey, and I hope you return victoriously."
"Then I'll lend you my blessing, Miss Fiore."
Fang Zheng smiled at Fiore, then turned around and walked down the stairs on the other side of the city wall. Fiore quietly watched Fang Zheng's back disappear, then sighed.
"elder sister?"
Looking at Fiore's appearance, Colles couldn't help but look at her curiously.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Ah, Coles..."
Hearing her brother's call, Fiore quickly came back to her senses. She blushed and shook her head, then continued in a low voice.
"No, I'm just worried about Mr. Fang Zheng's safety... After all, the upcoming battle will be very dangerous..."
“I see…”
Colles looked at Fiore in silence for a moment, then helplessly reached out his hand to press his forehead.
"Sister, I know you have feelings for him, but this is the Holy Grail War now, you need to cheer up a little bit."
"Of course I know!"
As if what Colles said hit the nail on the head, Fiore glared at him with a red face. Just as Colles said, Fiore had a certain fondness for Fang Zheng. At the beginning, she didn't know Fang Zheng. It was only when she summoned servants before the Holy Grail War that she heard from her uncle that for this Holy Grail War, the Thousand World Tree Clan sought "off-field assistance" from a very talented magician. Moreover, Danic told Fiore at the time that if she didn't obtain the Holy Grail, she would marry Fang Zheng...
Fiore could understand what Danic did. Although she was a magician from Eugenea, she was also the successor of the Thousand World Tree Clan. She had magic circuits and potential second only to Danic. Such a bloodline could not be interrupted because of the Holy Grail War. It was a rule of all magician families that excellent bloodlines must be continued, and the Thousand World Tree Clan was no exception.
Although the Holy Grail itself is very important, if the Holy Grail cannot be obtained, then it is also necessary to leave bloodlines to facilitate the next Holy Grail War.
Before meeting Fang Zheng, Fiore was quite curious about him, but also a little uneasy. Before Qianjieshu announced his withdrawal from the Magic Association, Fiore had also studied in the Clock Tower, so she knew that many magicians had eccentric personalities, and could even be called dangerous. So she was a little worried, what if the other party was also such a person?
But to Fiore's surprise, Fang Zheng was not as arrogant, scary, or weird as she thought. On the contrary, he was very peaceful and easy to get along with. Not only that, he was very humorous, kind and interesting, and most importantly... he was handsome.
Unfortunately, he didn't seem to know Danik's decision yet, which made Fiore feel a little disappointed. After all, in the few brief contacts with Fang Zheng, Fiore still had a good impression of Fang Zheng... But she also knew that now was not the time to be sentimental.
But Fiore still felt a little embarrassed that her younger brother had seen through it.
"Now we have to focus on the battle, Corles, let's go."
“Okay, okay…”
Watching Fiore leave, Colles smiled and shook his head. He glanced at BERSERKER beside him, made a cheering gesture to her, and quickly turned around to chase after Fiore.
The war is about to begin.
Fang Zheng remained silent as he watched the androids and puppets lined up in the courtyard, ready to go. Although he said he would go and see what was going on, in fact, Fang Zheng had already planned to watch the battle from beginning to end. If nothing unexpected happened, he would not take action. After all, as the predetermined winner, he also wanted to see what method Alaya had to help him win.
Since Fang Zheng had no way of burning them into firewood, and he had already determined that he would win, there was not much point in him taking action personally.
“Boom!”
The city gates opened.
Under the command of the Servants, the Homunculi and Golems quickly left the city and formed a neat formation to fight back. They were not there to fight the Servants, but to resist the attack of the Dragon Fang Soldiers. The only ones who could really fight the enemy Servants were Lancer, Berserker, Rider and Archer.
Oh, and that muscle maniac.
When he thought of that guy, Fang Zheng's willingness to go to the battlefield decreased again.
At the same time, in the aerial fortress, the red servants also saw the black army lined up on the plain.
"It seems they are ready too."
The young priest smiled softly, then he turned around and looked at the servants around him.
"So, who's going to start first?"
"Let me do it."
Red Archer strode to the edge of the balcony, and the girl raised the longbow in her hand, put two arrows on it, and aimed at the sky. The whistling cold wind blew past, and the furry ears on the top of her head trembled.
"I ask for the protection of the Sun God and the Moon Goddess with my bow!"
As Atalanta whispered, the arrow in her hand began to shine.
"Dedicate such a disaster - the Arrow Book of Complaint!"
Along with Red ARCHER's prayer, two arrows whizzed out, passing through the clouds with dazzling trails and disappeared without a trace.
But this is just the beginning.
The Red ARCHER - Atalanta's Noble Phantasm "Arrow of Complaint" was activated at this moment.
Countless points of light appeared in the clouds, and then turned into heavy rain falling from the sky.
At this moment, the battle officially began.
