Chapter 429
Kirei Kotomine, who had switched to a long sword, was even stronger than before, and even Diarmuid could not do anything to him for a while.
At this time, a flash of lightning appeared in the sky, the Great Emperor brought the King back, and Karna followed closely behind.
They had all come out of the Army of the King.
The King was fine, but the Great Emperor looked a bit disheveled, obviously no match for Karna.
In fact, the King didn't take advantage either, because Karna had taken her Excalibur blow head-on and remained unscathed; the defense of the Golden Armor was really that strong.
Of course, Karna didn't take advantage of the King either.
Relying on her intuition and Avalon's defensive capabilities, the King was considered to have fought Karna to a draw.
That's right, Emiya Kiritsugu had already returned Avalon to the King, just a year ago when the King went with them to the Einzbern castle to pick up Illya.
"Let's go!"
The Great Emperor drove the Gordius Wheel, flew past with the King, and took Diarmuid along the way, and the group evacuated the Hanging Gardens.
This decapitation operation had failed, and staying any longer would only put them in a siege.
Plus, Extra Feng Xi also sent a message that the Holy Grail was already in hand, calling them to gather and prepare to retreat.
"What!"
On the other side, the Black Faction watched Extra Feng Xi and the Red Faction fighting fiercely, but they couldn't intervene, and everyone was not in a good mood.
Suddenly, Caules discovered that his Command Spells were starting to disappear.
This meant that his Servant, Frankenstein, had left the battlefield.
Time returned to a few minutes ago, in the Qin Qin Shi Huang's Reality Marble - the Qin Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum.
"The evil dragon falls, the world is welcoming the twilight."
Siegfried held his long sword high, and powerful magical energy gathered on the blade.
They were trapped in this Reality Marble, completely suppressed by the Qin Qin Shi Huang, and could not even see the opponent's figure.
The only thing that could be determined was that the Qin Qin Shi Huang was in the palace above.
But they wanted to kill their way up, but were blocked several times by the terracotta warriors and the golden beast legion, and there were also the endless mercury weapons, making them unable to defend against them.
For this reason, Siegfried let Astolfo and Fran help him clear the way, while he began to release his Noble Phantasm, wanting to blow up the palace directly.
"Shoot it down, 'Balmung'!"
Siegfried shouted, the long sword slashed down heavily, and the magical energy on the sword turned into a light cannon, directly bombarding the Underground Heavenly Palace.
Under this powerful blow, the front half of the Underground Heavenly Palace was directly blown to pieces, revealing the Qin Qin Shi Huang sitting in the palace.
"Hmph, interesting."
The Qin Qin Shi Huang sneered: "But to dare to destroy my palace, the crime deserves death!"
The Qin Qin Shi Huang waved his hand, and the weapons turned from the river of mercury became denser, hitting Siegfried and the others so they had no power to parry for a while.
"Pfft!"
In less than a moment, except for Siegfried, who had an immortal body, Astolfo and Fran were both injured.
"Ugh!!!"
Fran, who was injured, instantly entered a runaway state, roaring and charging toward the Qin Qin Shi Huang.
The large round hammer named "Bridal Chest" opened, releasing cyan lightning, and all the terracotta warriors or golden beasts blocking her path were violently knocked away by her.
As a price, she was also covered in scars, with several mercury weapons inserted into her back.
But Fran seemed completely unable to feel pain, and relying on a reckless spirit, she successfully rushed onto the palace and killed her way to the Qin Qin Shi Huang.
"Come with me!"
Fran, who originally only knew how to roar, actually spoke at this moment.
It should be said that Fran could speak originally, but her vocal cords were different from humans, and speaking would make her very painful, so she rarely spoke.
Fran jumped up, and Bridal Chest was inserted into the ground by her, and powerful lightning was released in an instant.
Fran was about to release her Noble Phantasm.
Unlike the FGO game, once Fran releases this Noble Phantasm, it means death.
Although Caules had warned her repeatedly not to use the Noble Phantasm, she couldn't care about that much anymore.
"【Blasted Tree of the Crucifixion】!"
Following Fran's roar, dazzling lightning exploded, sweeping across the entire palace.
"Bang!!!"
Outside the palace, accompanied by a roar, Siegfried and Astolfo only saw the palace explode from the inside out, and the cyan lightning turned into a tree of lightning, appearing beautiful and dangerous.
All the terracotta warriors and golden beasts that approached turned into fragments under the attack of the lightning.
After the lightning dissipated, only a pile of pitch-black ruins remained.
"So amazing, Berserker!"
Astolfo said excitedly: "Did you defeat the opponent?"
"No, obviously not."
Siegfried looked at the Qin Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum, which had no fluctuations, and understood that Fran had failed to defeat the opponent.
"Uh, uh..."
Fran looked at the mercury pillar in front of her, let out an unwilling roar, and her body turned into light spots and dissipated without a trace.
Frankenstein, exit.
Just when Fran released the Noble Phantasm, the Qin Qin Shi Huang directly used mercury to create a hollow pillar to wrap himself up.
Using the conductive properties of mercury, Fran's current was all conducted underground, failing to hurt the Qin Qin Shi Huang at all.
"To actually destroy my palace like this, it is truly a crime that deserves death ten thousand times."
After the mercury dissipated, the Qin Qin Shi Huang looked at the palace that had completely turned into ruins, and a flash of violence appeared on his face.
If Fran hadn't left the battlefield, she would definitely have been subjected to the Qin Qin Shi Huang's ruthless torture.
For this reason, the Qin Qin Shi Huang directly vented his anger on Siegfried and Astolfo.
Seeing mercury wrapped around the terracotta warriors, it actually added a layer of mercury armor and bows and arrows to them.
The terracotta warrior army immediately formed a formation and began to fire ten thousand arrows at Siegfried and the other.
"Danger, hide behind me!"
Siegfried saw this and immediately blocked in front of Astolfo.
He had an immortal body, so these mercury arrows couldn't hurt him at all.
But this couldn't go on, because the two of them braved the rain of arrows and continued to kill their way toward the Qin Qin Shi Huang above.
Outside, sensing Fran's exit, Caules was both unwilling and sad.
Darnic also had an ugly face, not expecting that they had lost another Servant.
"Darnic, are we just going to watch here?"
For the Count, watching the enemy run wild on his own territory while he could only watch from the sidelines was simply a great humiliation.
Darnic: "... Archer, please go and observe from close range to see if you can find the weakness of that mecha."
"I understand."
Chiron nodded and immediately approached the battlefield of the Light Energy Messenger.
And after Chiron left, Darnic immediately gave Avicebron a look.
Avicebron understood and immediately said: "Darnic, the situation is critical now, I hope you can hand that homunculus to me, so maybe I can activate my Noble Phantasm and complete my masterpiece."
The homunculus he was talking about was naturally Sieg.
The Count, Gordes, and Fiore all knew it, but they all tacitly did not speak.
Darnic: "Can you guarantee that your Noble Phantasm can turn the tide of the battle?"
Avicebron: "I guarantee it."
Darnic: "Fine, that homunculus is handed over to you to deal with."
"I understand. Let's go, Roche."
Avicebron was a little excited and immediately turned and walked toward the castle.
"Wait for me, teacher."
Roche also hurriedly followed.
They didn't see that several figures in the dark also followed into the castle.
When the two came to Siegfried's room and pushed the door in, there was no sign of Sieg at all.
"Not here?"
Avicebron frowned and immediately took Roche to other rooms to search.
