In this area, all the Dark Beasts have lost their lives, and the cause of death for all of them was the decapitation of their heads.
Although some of the Dark Death Beasts possessed special abilities, theoretically allowing them to continue moving even after their heads were severed, they were still completely wiped out.
This is one of the abilities of the former god of death, the assassin Meyer Louis III.
As a top assassin, one of his skills was enhanced after he became a Heroic Spirit. The effect is similar to the judgment in a combat game. As long as he can deal effective damage to parts such as the head and heart, he can reduce the target's life force.
Beheading is undoubtedly the most effective method.
This ability also has another effect: it applies a curse that inhibits healing to the cut wound.
With this setup, his combat prowess as an assassin is extremely terrifying.
Now, he is ready to leave.
Although he hadn't directly confronted the Master of Ten Thousand Swords, the sword that sliced through the mountain range and his familiarity with the Swordsman class of Heroic Spirits led him to place the Master of Ten Thousand Swords at the very end of his assassination list.
The Lord of Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion is probably nearby; if we encounter him, a fierce battle is inevitable.
"Swordsmen have intuition or the intuition that manifests their martial arts skills, while archers may have locking skills such as clairvoyance or eagle eye."
"My abilities are best suited for dealing with cavalry or sorcerers, whose strength is generally not in their physical form, making assassination much easier."
As for berserkers and spearmen?
He wasn't particularly concerned about these two class opponents. The Berserker's berserk state would cause a huge commotion in the battle, and he might be taken down by other contestants before he could even make a move.
As for spearmen, they're usually lucky (E-rank), so if he encounters one, he can try to test the waters.
"Therefore, my goal is very clear: prioritize finding sorcerers or cavalry and eliminate them."
King Louis Meyer III left the scene full of confidence. His idea was good, but as the saying goes, intelligence is the key factor in the outcome of a battle.
The leaderboard did not display the identities or classes of the participants, and he was unaware that there were only three regular-class Servants in this Holy Grail War.
The sorcerer he so desperately wanted to know was beyond his comprehension using normal thinking.
The area where Karen, the High Alchemist and a participant in the Holy Grail War, previously resided.
"Boom..."
An earthquake struck; the surrounding Dark Beasts could feel it as the ground shook noticeably, though they didn't know why.
They could only follow the sound and look toward the core of the tremor. Even the Dark Beasts found the scene before them far beyond their wildest imaginations.
"Splash..."
The gray-green plants wriggled and twisted together in dense clusters, resembling a nest of countless venomous snakes, triggering trypophobia in some people.
Some curious Dark Beasts approached in that direction; their world hadn't seen any changes for far too many years.
Although I don't know what's going on with this sudden change, the vitality that plants possess is undeniable.
They wanted to see if they could devour these living plants to make themselves even stronger.
A few seconds later, they regretted it.
"Whoosh..."
Overactive plants bind the body with thorns, tear open wounds, and sharp branches pierce flesh and blood. Bright flowers spray out sweet pollen, and the internal toxins weaken the ability to resist, even directly poisoning weak Dark Death Beasts.
In the end, only their corpses remained.
The seeds feed on flesh and blood to develop rapidly, and new flowers bloom on them, appearing even more vibrant.
