Chapter 1048

【Powerful, invincible, to think there is an opponent worthy of such praise.】

【But we cannot surrender.】

【It's still a bit too early to give up now.】

【As for the bystanders, the three Servants who went deep into the Great Temple losing their lives would surely be commented on as just a matter of time.】

【They are not unaware of their own disadvantages and the huge crisis.】

【Although Brynhildr initially showed a cooperative attitude, she whispered and disappeared after the group of beasts regenerated completely three times, her safety unknown.】

【As long as these seven divine beasts in total continue to attack, the old Saber and Arash can only fight a desperate battle without end.】

【Sniping at Ramesses II was originally intended to break the situation, but it had no good effect.】

Iskandar: "Oh my, they are completely trapped."

Caules: "Those are Sphinxes, right? To think he can continuously summon Phantasmal Species of this level."

Kayneth: "Too strong, as long as he is in this temple, the Sun King is almost an invincible existence."

【"Saber!"】

【While avoiding the red-hot hooked claws enhanced by the Sphinx's magical power, and shooting fifty flying arrows to wipe out the flame storm spat out by another one, Arash shouted to the old Saber.】

【In the next instant, Arash was already on the ceiling of the Great Cloister, which is about ten meters above the stone floor.】

【"Not yet?"】

【"A few more minutes!"】

【The old Saber answered while waving his holy sword to slaughter the divine beasts.】

【Arash: "... You're really asking too much."】

【What they are facing is not ordinary magical beasts, but divine beasts called Sphinxes!】

【Each of these divine beasts has the power to rival a Heroic Spirit; they are executors of royal authority, symbols of flame and storm, and born destroyers.】

【This is not a situation of sniping from a distance, it's a chaotic battle of melee combat to the end!】

【Even if it's just a slack of 0.1 seconds, those sharp fangs and claws are enough to tear them apart.】

Jinako: "It seems King Arthur has a plan, but it needs some time to charge."

Jinako: "This is becoming more and more like a level-clearing game."

Waver: "I didn't expect these Sphinxes to be so strong."

Cu Chulainn: "Although it's a bit embarrassing, I'm afraid I would only run if I encountered this situation."

Iskandar: "Hahaha, I'd like to see what method the Knight King will have to defeat the Sun King."

Li Shuwen: "Is it my illusion, but I feel their movements are starting to slow down."

Kojiro: "Is it a lack of magical energy?"

【Since entering the temple to start the battle, it has been more than thirty minutes.】

【No matter how powerful the magical energy possessed by the Heroic Spirit themselves is, it is still the Master's magical energy that controls their maintenance and activities.】

【Facing these endless divine beasts, how long can they maintain it?】

【Elsa (the former Master), she is probably panting in the city due to the consumption of magical energy.】

【In addition, the divine power filled in the Great Temple—the curse that looks like ancient Egyptian gods, just by existing, is continuously eroding the limbs of the invaders.】

【If it were a healthy organism, it would probably die in less than two seconds.】

【Even Arash, who has a body that resists all diseases and toxins, couldn't hold on after being hit.】

【"It's the first time I've been paralyzed by poison to my fingers."】

【The old Saber is probably in a similar state, as can be seen from the obviously slowed movements.】

【Various toxins are wantonly carving into his internal organs; not only are the parameters of his abilities dropping level by level, but sometimes even his skills are weakened, and even his Noble Phantasm is sealed and cannot be activated.】

Caules: "To think there are weakening toxins and curses!"

Gordes: "Even the Noble Phantasm is sealed!"

Rin Tohsaka: "With so many buffs, what's the point of fighting?"

Waver: "The Pharaoh's tomb is a sacred and inviolable territory; all invaders will die from viruses and curses."

Waver: "It seems this Noble Phantasm fits this point very well."

Astolfo: "I feel this thing is much stronger than the Empress's Hanging Gardens."

Empress: "(? _?)"

【"Sigh, if there's no other way, I can only bite the bullet."】

【While finding an opportunity to avoid the claws and fangs of the divine beasts, he climbed onto the lion-like body at the right time, gripped the arrow made of magical energy with his right hand, and without hesitation, hit the face of the giant human face, gouging out the eyes and piercing the brain in the blink of an eye, destroying the spirit core.】
