The inherent barrier dissipated, and everyone returned to the ruined rooftop of the building.
The Assassins who had managed to escape did not dare to stay for long. They were frightened. The tens of thousands of gay men in the King’s army became an indelible nightmare in their hearts. They lost the courage to face Rider, and they would definitely avoid Rider in the days to come.
As for Duke... Assassin had no idea. This old man was definitely not born alive!
The panicked Assassins scattered in all directions. Suddenly, a sword flashed in front of them, and the bodies of the three Assassins were separated and turned into points of light and disappeared.
It’s the long-awaited Lancelot!
"What's going on? Why is there another servant?" Seeing Lancelot's knight armor, the Assassins were confused and ran faster.
Lancelot stroked the sword, flicked off some blood with his fingertips, and knelt on one knee beside Duke: "Master, are you okay?"
Weber shook his head repeatedly: "This is troublesome. If the other party is unwilling to reveal his real name, it will be difficult for us to find out."

"Lan, honesty is the virtue of a knight. Who else could Saber be but Joan of Arc? Caster once said that her real name is Joan of Arc. A dying man speaks kind words. I see that Caster looks honest and loyal, so he probably wouldn't lie." Duke patted Lancelot on the shoulder: "It's time for you to fulfill your oath. Capture her and keep watch for me!"
What kind of King Arthur is King Arthur without his aho-hair? So this is just an aho-hair figure... No way! Lancelot was going crazy. He swore that the young knight in front of him was King Arthur. There was no other reason. The king's heroic figure was deeply imprinted in his heart. Even if only one toe was exposed, he could recognize it as the king's toes.
Emiya Kiritsugu took a deep breath, recalling the legend about Lancelot in his mind, with an inexplicable light flashing in his eyes, and it was unknown what he was planning.
Even though Lancelot's armor was no longer holy due to his class, Saber was confident that she would never make a mistake. The other party was the strongest Knight of the Round Table known as the 'Knight of the Lake' and also her former subject.
"Sir Lancelot...Sir Lancelot..."
The perfect plan will definitely help Lancelot get over the cuckolding of King Dai, and make him his lackey. As for whether Lancelot will reject Plan B, Duke said that he has the command seal, and it is not up to Lancelot to decide whether to go for it or not.
Rider crossed his arms, things were getting more and more interesting. He was also aware of the troubles between Lancelot and King Arthur. The two men and one woman in history had become two women and one man now. The gossipy heart of the gay was ablaze, and the next development was worth looking forward to. He decided to postpone the duel for the time being, and he would wait until he saw the show before dying.
Uh, that's a bit beastly... Then let's switch to Plan B, he'll keep watch for Lancelot.
Duke looked weird, his script was not like this, Lancelot and King Sarge met too early. In his plan, Plan A was to capture King Sarge, put a black hood on him and lock him in the basement, and let Lancelot help him keep watch.
Bang! A big hand pressed on Lancelot's shoulder, forcing him to kneel on the ground again. Lancelot turned around and saw a pair of slightly cold eyes.
Under pressure from Duke, the two of them formed a united front without realizing it. Focusing their attention on Lancelot, they didn't notice that Saber beside them was already in a daze, still mumbling to herself.
On the other side, Rider, Waver, Saber and Emiya Kiritsugu were also surprised by the appearance of Lancelot. There were still hidden Servants in the Holy Grail War.
Because he was too excited, Lancelot became hard, and his voice changed.
"Lancelot, the famous one..." Waver covered his mouth in surprise: "If he is Lancelot, then isn't he Saber's Knight of the Round Table?"
“Sir Lancelot, he is Sir Lancelot…” Saber swayed, took a step forward, and shouted excitedly: “Sir Lancelot, is that you?”
Duke secretly shook his head. He was so busy pretending that he messed up his own script, but there was still room for redemption. His acting skills were on point. He pretended to be surprised and looked at Lancelot, who was shaking all over, and said in confusion: "Xiao Lan, why are you so nervous? It's just Joan of Arc. Take her head and give it to me!"
"Xiaolan, I can treat the previous oath as a joke, but you must know that I am determined to obtain the Holy Grail. I don't care whether Saber is Arthur or Jeanne d'Arc, she is my enemy now. Winning for the monarch is what a knight should do, don't you agree?"
Emiya Kiritsugu noticed Saber's distraught state and could not help but become nervous: "Saber, what's wrong with you?"
Lancelot looked terrified: "No, no, no, I can't. She is Arthur, the king I swore allegiance to."
Duke's expression remained unchanged as he continued, "From among the tens of thousands of heroes, seven were chosen to participate in the Holy Grail War, and you and King Arthur were both chosen... How could it be such a coincidence? Maybe you just look alike. Take a closer look."
"There are only seven Servants participating in the Holy Grail War, but there is an eighth one. I am getting more and more confused." Waver opened his mouth wide and pulled Rider's cloak. The latter just frowned and thought hard, but did not respond. Emiya Kiritsugu thought more than Waver. Seeing Lancelot kneeling on one knee beside Duke, he subconsciously thought that Duke and Lancelot's Master had formed an alliance, and said with concentration: "Who is the new Servant, what class is it, or is there an eighth class?"
Duke narrowed his eyes. It was such a touching scene that the monarch and his subject could meet again after death, but why was there a little green on his head?
Lancelot actually thought that what Duke said made sense, so he carefully looked at Saber. Her appearance, body shape, temperament, dress, and the sword of victory in her hand, all looked like King Arthur... If there was any difference, it was probably that the symbol of the king was gone.
Although he was expressing his concern for his Master's safety, Lancelot's eyes were not on Duke at all. He was staring at the 1.54 meter tall young knight opposite him, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.
"Master, I..." Lancelot's Adam's apple moved as he felt unprecedented pressure from Duke.
Hearing the cries of the aggro king, Lancelot could no longer control himself. He shook his body and performed the etiquette of a subject: "Yes, my king, the sinner Lancelot is here."
Lancelot pointed at Saber: "Master...she...she...is not Joan of Arc..."
Lancelot is a key figure in the decline of the Arthurian legend. He caused the Knights of the Round Table to be destroyed and died in self-blame and regret. His obsession made him respond to the call of the Holy Grail and wish to return to the past to accept King Arthur's punishment. Now seeing King Sartre, it is equivalent to the fulfillment of his wish, and he immediately stands up to die.
Lancelot felt sad when he heard this. The two monarchs to whom he swore allegiance during life and after death were enemies. Caught in the middle, he faced a choice that was destined to be tragic.
Although Saber on the opposite side could not hear the conversation between the two, she would not turn a blind eye when she saw Lancelot being "bullied". The sword of victory flashed with golden light.
“Berserker, let go of Lord Lancelot. This is a duel between you and me.” Apparently, Saber had the same misunderstanding as Emiya Kiritsugu, and believed that Lancelot was in a weak position in the alliance.
"I'm really sorry, he can't escape the duel between you and me..." Duke said, showing the Command Seal on the back of his hand: "Because he is my Servant!"
