"You actually stood up again?"

Saber's pupils shrank, and she looked in astonishment at the two figures who were fighting fiercely again.

"Is it the ability to regenerate? No, this level is almost like turning back time!"

"It's the Curse of Resurrection, the kind of treasure that activates at the moment of death!"

Saber made a quick judgment. At this moment, Emiya Shirou suddenly grabbed her hand and said anxiously, "Run! Archer is about to attack!"

"Archer?"

Saber frowned, her eyes swept across the place where Tousaka Rin and Hong A were originally standing, and said solemnly: "Shirou, are you sure... and how did you know?"

"I……"

Emiya Shirou was stunned for a moment, unable to explain how he sensed it.

Fortunately, Saber only asked a question and did not delve into it.

The two of them quickly ran out of the battlefield. Before leaving, Emiya Shirou did not forget to remind Tong Shen.

Tong Shen was slightly stunned, and then he remembered the plot in the original book.

When facing Berserker for the first time, Red A did launch an attack on him from a very long distance.

Tong Shen quickly reminded Lu Bu to evacuate, but Lu Bu seemed to have heard nothing and was still fighting with Berserker excitedly.

Seeing this scene, on a high-rise building a thousand meters away, the red-clothed heroic spirit calmly placed the spiral sword on the bowstring.

"Wait!" Toosaka Rin said hurriedly, "Archer, don't you see that Rider is still fighting Berserker!"

The red-robed hero turned his back to her and said calmly, "Really? That's such a pity..."

Toosaka Rin was shocked and said, "You plan to attack him as well. Aren't we allies now?"

The red-clothed Heroic Spirit shook his head and said, "Rin, don't be so naive. In the cruel Holy Grail War, allies are meant to be backstabbed. Besides, with the character that Lu Bu has shown, do you really think that after defeating the other Masters and Heroic Spirits, he will show mercy to you and me?"

"No, it's impossible. He will just fight me with all his might."

"By then, do you think I will be a match for Saber and Rider?"

"As much as I hate to admit it, I would not be a match for these two if it were a one-on-one duel without any conspiracy or intrigue."

"Especially Rider. If you want to deal with them, you need a distractor. Berserker is the best distractor. With him by my side, I can fully exert my abilities."

"Rin, let this fragile alliance end tonight!"

After hearing Archer's words, Toosaka Rin calmed down.

She shook her head and said, "Archer, I understand what you said, but tonight is not the most appropriate time. We have only seen five of the seven heroic spirits, and the other two have not appeared yet..."

"Intelligence, intelligence is the most important thing, do you understand?"

"Given Rider's personality, no matter how powerful the remaining two Heroic Spirits are, he will not bother to launch a sneak attack and will definitely fight head-on. As long as he charges ahead, we can collect as much information as we want on the seven Heroic Spirits."

"Once we have mastered the identities and abilities of all the Heroic Spirits and formulated a targeted plan, it won't be too late to deal with Rider then!"

After hearing Toosaka Rin's clear and logical words, the red-clothed heroic spirit was silent for a while and silently put down the bow and arrow in his hand.

Toosaka Rin breathed a sigh of relief, but then she realized something -

"You weren't planning on attacking, were you... were you testing me?"

The red-robed Heroic Spirit smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, I just want you to correctly understand the cruelty of the Holy Grail War and not indulge in the alliance atmosphere that seems to be nuclear peace. But now, I find that you already have a deep understanding, which makes me seem a little redundant..."

"Anyway, let's wait for them to come up with a result first!"

…

On the other side, after a fierce fight with Berserker, Lu Bu suddenly leaped back, distanced himself, and confronted Berserker.

He frowned slightly, looking at Berserker's unharmed body in surprise.

After the miracle of resurrection, Berserker's physical strength seemed to have risen to a new level. The moves that could easily leave scars on him now had no effect.

"Boy, do you have any information you haven't shared yet?"

"Yes!" Tong Shen nodded quickly, "You guys were fighting so fiercely before, I was worried that it would affect you, so I didn't finish."

"In addition to nullifying attacks below B-rank and providing eleven resurrection opportunities, the Twelve Trials of Hercules also have an effect of 'Saints will not be defeated by the same move twice'..."

Lu Bu asked in surprise: "Saint Seiya?"

Tong Shen said quickly: "Don't worry about it. Anyway, Hercules is immune to the moves that once killed him, but this immunity is also limited. It's more like a targeted increase in resistance."

"For example, Uncle Bu, you used that move just now to hurt and kill him. After he resurrects, this move will not be effective. Unless you use a force many times stronger than before and make it exceed the increase in resistance, you can hurt him again."

……I see!

Lu Bu nodded slightly, understanding what Tong Shen meant.

"What a tough enemy!"

Lu Bu looked at Berserker with a headache.

If that were the case, he would have to kill Berserker in twelve different ways, once each, before he could completely destroy it.

This is a bit of a headache. After all, although Lu Bu is powerful, his methods are rather simple. Even if he racked his brains, he couldn't think of twelve ways to kill Berserker.

"The physical swing of the Fang Tian Hua Ji counts as one, the demonic energy counts as one, that's two, the bow and arrow counts as one, the cavalry charge counts as one, and the treasure bestowed by Alliance Leader Lin counts as another, that's only five..."

Lu Bu was having a headache as he calculated his methods.

"Why, you don't want to fight anymore?"

A clear and pleasant voice came from the front.

Illya walked from behind Berserker and looked at Lu Bu with a sweet smile.

"Since we don't want to fight anymore, let's stop here today!"

"Although I am not interested in Saber and Archer, I am still very interested in you, so I will let you live a little longer~"

"Really?" Lu Bu heard Illya's intention to recruit him, and chuckled, "However, you already have a warrior as powerful as Berserker under your command. Is the remaining magic power enough to supply another heroic spirit?"

"sure!"

Illya smiled sweetly: "Illya is very strong! No matter how many Heroic Spirits there are, Rider~"

Lu Bu laughed when he heard this. "I can tolerate being driven by a young boy, but I can never work under a woman, let alone a little girl like you. Since you are a child, you should go home and drink milk obediently. The Holy Grail War is not suitable for you."

The smile on Illya's face froze, and then she glared at Lu Bu angrily.

Tong Shen blinked his eyes: "Uncle Bu, be careful of getting punched!"

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows: "Fighting, so what? My boxing skills are not bad either..."

"He said you discriminate against women~"

Deng Yougang laughed and teased in his heart.

Lu Bu shook his head: "I am just telling the truth. At least in my time, it was true. However, if it was the Dragon Queen in the alliance, I might be able to accept it."

"It's a pity that she was born a barbarian..."

Hearing Lu Bu's slightly regretful voice, Deng Yougang couldn't help but roll his eyes, thinking that he couldn't say this in front of Sister Dany.

At this moment, Lu Bu's expression suddenly moved. He instantly jumped in front of Tong Shen, clamped his body between his ribs, and jumped a distance of dozens of meters.

Berserker also suddenly raised his head and looked at the stars shining in the distant sky.

The next moment, Berserker roared, grabbed Illya beside him, and threw her forward.

Illya jumped into the air in a daze, and flew dozens of meters in an instant. Then she quickly chanted a spell, controlling her hair to form three white magic birds, which intercepted her from mid-air.

As Illya landed lightly on the ground, the light in the distant sky grew bigger and bigger.

The next moment, the black spiral sword fell to the ground with a loud bang, enveloped by the blue magic light.

The strong wind swept the flames, and countless stone bricks, reliefs and trees were uprooted by the violent shock wave.

The entire square outside the church was turned to dust. Rumbling sounds were heard from the earth. The extreme speed and high temperature turned the area within a hundred meters into a blazing fire.

Dust filled the sky and turned into a small mushroom cloud in the explosion of fire, completely covering Berserker's sturdy body.

The deafening roar was enough to wake up the residents of Fuyuki City thousands of meters away.

If they could open the window and look toward the horizon, they would even be able to see the faint golden-red glow of fire in the suburban sky.

But who says this is Fuyuki City?

It was just a gas explosion, which was impossible to attract the attention of the sleeping residents.

On the road connecting the city, Emiya Shirou and Saber had already stopped, looking up in a daze, their bright eyes reflecting the dazzling fire a few hundred meters away.

“Is this the power of the Heroic Spirit?”

Emiya Shirou muttered to himself, then looked at Saber beside him.

"Saber, do you have the means to fight Archer?"

Saber nodded calmly: "Not only me, Rider must also have powerful means that are no less powerful than this."

Emiya Shirou had a complicated expression and couldn't help but clench his fists. In his heart, he had a deeper understanding of what Kotomine Kirei said in the church: "Heroic spirits are weapons."

At the same time, Lu Bu put down Tong Shen who was sandwiched between his ribs, and raised his eyebrows as he looked at the fire in the distance.

"I never thought that this guy who was hiding his true intentions actually had such means."

Of course, he is the future body of the protagonist Shirou Emiya!

Tong Shen complained in his heart, then rubbed his waist and ribs that were pinched so hard that they hurt, and whispered, "Uncle Bu, do you want to go back and take a look?"

Lu Bu shook his head. "That's unnecessary. He must have died under such an attack. If we go back now, we might face an enraged Berserker..."

Tong Shen said in surprise: "I thought you didn't care, Uncle Bu!"

Lu Bu glanced at him and said calmly, "I am just a bellicosity guy, not an idiot. Since I already know that guy has twelve lives, I will not waste my energy. I will wait for other heroes to consume a few more of his lives before I can reap the rewards!"

…

…

In the church square, the dust gradually dissipated.

A huge circular pit with a diameter of about 100 meters appeared there. Countless flames continued to burn between the broken bricks, layer by layer from the inside to the outside, like a surging wave of fire, leaving behind a shocking circular mark.

And in the center of the fire, the tall figure of Berserker stood there quietly.

Seeing that he was unharmed, it was obvious that he had lost his life to the nuclear explosion of the flying sword just now.

Illya walked out of the fire scene, glanced at Berserker who was standing there quietly, and then looked up at the tall building in the distance.

"Illya is a little angry..."

"Archer, I'll remember you!"
