Chapter 499:
In any case, this matter should be reported to The Lion King in time. It's ridiculous, I only saw Tristan accept the king's punishment not long ago, but I didn't expect it to be my turn in the blink of an eye. Thinking of the punishment of "close to death", and thinking of Tristan being dug out of the city wall by the knights and lying on the ground for several hours, Gawain immediately felt that the bright palace in front of him became eerie.
What's even more ridiculous is that both he and Tristan have the ability to complete the task.
Gawain rushed back to the palace, and the sound of hurried footsteps would disturb the tranquility of the palace. He quickly arrived at the council hall, but when he arrived, he saw Mordred lying in a pool of blood. ——
Mordred was lying on the floor, her head was twisted to a very exaggerated forty-five degrees, and there was a bloodstain on her neck. Soaked in a pool of blood. Her eyes were wide open, as if she saw something incredible, and her pale face made people unable to imagine what happened before Mordred's tragic death.
However, seeing such a terrifying scene, Gawain's heart did not fluctuate, instead he wanted to laugh a little.
"Mordred, are you... dead again?"
Ok? Why should I say it again?
Mordred did not speak, and the dead could not answer.
"Lord Assistant, I have something to report to the Lion King."
That's right, the assistant, Argonaut, was here too, and he was so cold and indifferent to the dead Mordred.
"The king has rested. I have already received the news of your failure. There is no need to disturb the news of the king because of such trivial matters. Next, I just need to wait for the king to wake up and deal with it."
"..." Gawain nodded, but couldn't help but glanced at Mordred's body, "Although I think so too, I always feel that the king will come soon."
Argonaut remained silent, seemingly unable to refute, and the chamber fell silent.
However, as if in response to some kind of call, steady footsteps came. Although no one was seen, Gawain and Argonaut became serious. Soon after, the Lion King appeared at the door of the council hall.
However, before Gao Wen and Age Gaiwen greeted him, the Lion King at the door had already stopped, as if he had drawn some kind of stimulation, his magic power suddenly condensed.
--"boom"!
The magic power blasted from the Lion King to the position of Mordred, who was already lying on the floor. However, when Mordred's body was about to be torn apart, Mordred completed the "rolling - bouncing" in one go. ” movement, can evade the magic bombardment of the Lion King, Rao is still blown away by the aftermath of the bombardment, and then the whole person is embedded in the wall in a large font.
"Okay, it hurts." Mordred stretched out his hands and pressed it against the wall, and pushed himself out of the wall, "I was almost killed by my father, it was really dangerous, but I escaped my father again. The king's will be killed."
The Lion King looked blankly at Mordred, who was as proud as a kid: "Mordred, I haven't allowed you to stay in the Holy City yet."
"Haha, I'll just wait and leave. By the way, Father, guess what I saw just now? This guy Gawain also failed. Not only did the refugees escape, but also the three people who were finally selected. One died and was repelled by a group of Servants of unknown origin. It seems that Gawain is not that easy to use. Maybe I am the most reliable in the entire Knights of the Round Table."
Mordred's smile became brighter, Gawain's failure made her feel more happy, and human value really came out of comparison.
But it's one thing that everyone doesn't take Mordred's words, maybe she is the most unreliable Knight of the Round Table.
"Gao Wen, what happened just now?"
In the face of the Lion King's questioning, Gawain did not hesitate to tell what happened just now, without any concealment, including that he clearly had the opportunity to kill Lixiang's team, but in the end he did not choose to pursue it.
The Lion King was silent for a moment after listening to Gawain's report, and said, "Gaowen, I will now give you one last chance. I do not allow failure, and now I order you and Mordred to go and annihilate the hindrance, this is what you will do. A chance at redemption, and if I fail again, I will—"
"Wait a minute, King." Argonaut, standing beside the Lion King, interrupted the Lion King rudely.
"Is something wrong, Argonaut?"
"Yes, King. I don't think Gawain's responsibility to guard the main gate can't be changed. Gawain's ability is more suitable to stay there. As for chasing down the Servant who hinders Shengba, there are still other people in Shengdu who can perform this task." Gai Wen paused and said, "According to the reports of the knights, the guerrilla knight Lancelot still has nothing to do in the Holy City, and he did not make any shots during the period of St. Bald. Now is the time for Lancelot to help, St. You shouldn't support such an idle person."
"Lancelot." There were obvious fluctuations on the indifferent face of the Lion King, but it quickly disappeared, "Then Mordred and Lancelot will be in charge of the pursuit. As for you, Gawain, just in Lancelot and Mordred remain at the main gate until they return."
"Yes, I understand."
PS: I recommend a video, "Every day I go home, I see Xiao Mo pretending to be dead", I watched it at station B.
Chapter 789 Chapter 306 Guerrilla Knights
Gawain raised his head and gave Argonaut a grateful look, but Argoman was indifferent to this small gesture. Gawain knew that Age Gaiwen might not understand his thoughts at all, but simply thought that this proposal was very in line with the current situation of the Holy City, but Age Gaiwen made him avoid choosing between loyalty and righteousness. He was very grateful.
As for what Lancelot will do, this is not something that Gawain will consider. His relationship with Lancelot has not been good enough to consider each other.
"Am I going to attack too? That's great, Father, if I come back from the mission, let me go back to the Holy City and settle down."
"..."
The Lion King did not answer Mordred's words, but Mordred showed a pure smile as if he had been affirmed by the Lion King.
Gawain and Mordred left the council room, but just as they walked out of the gate, Mordred ran.
"Mr. Mordred, where are you going, which direction should Lancelot be in?"
Gawain found that Mordred seemed to be planning to attack directly, instead of notifying Lancelot, who was unaware.
Mordred ran out without looking back: "Who cares about him? I'll go first, please inform him slowly, maybe I'll be back when he's ready. This time must be done. Father's task is to do, and after the matter is over, I will return to the Holy City to settle down."
Return to the Holy City to settle down? is it possible?
Gawain didn't know, but the Lion King didn't deny it, so it should be the default.
Since The Lion King summoned everyone from the Knights of the Round Table, everyone can feel that The Lion King has different feelings for everyone, and the attitude towards Mordred and Lancelot is obviously contradictory. The Lion King does not allow Mordred to stay in the Sanctuary, only in the wild without orders. Although Lancelot stayed in the Holy City, the two never saw each other at other times except the moment he was summoned, and Lancelot was forbidden to enter the palace.
To put it simply, the Lion King still has a grudge against Lancelot, but he doesn't blame Lancelot as he used to, so he simply gave Lancelot a cold bench out of sight.
Gawain did not go to the main entrance of the Holy City immediately, because he found that neither Mordred nor the Lion King had notified Lancelot of their plans, and this matter could only fall on him in the end, otherwise it was really possible Like Mordred said, Lancelot won't know the king's order until it's over.
Almost everyone knows that Gawain and Lancelot have a bad relationship. After all, Lancelot was one of the culprits who destroyed Britain, while Gawain was loyal to King Arthur. In addition to this, Lancelot also killed his brother.
But before he died, Gawain still decided to forgive Lancelot. He believed that his personal grudge against Lancelot was one of the reasons for the accelerated demise of Britain. If he could let go of this grudge, Britain might be saved. Of course, this may also be due to the sequelae of inertia brought about by the dead body, and the brain does not even have the strength to resent.
Anyway, Gawain still has a resentment for Lancelot, but because of this resentment, he will not do anything that violates the morality of the knights and damages Britain and the king, so he was "exiled" by the Lion King in Lancelot. At that time, Gawain had never seen Lancelot.
When Gawain found Lancelot, he found that Lancelot was ready to go out. Although he was fully armed as usual, he was already in a state of combat, like a sword that could be cut down at any time, but for Lancelot, a more accurate description should be a spear pierced.
Seeing Gawain's appearance, Lancelot nodded to Gawain: "Thank you very much for your information, Gao Wenqing."
——I don’t seem to have said anything yet. Could it be that another knight informed him?
This may not be big, because there are only a few of them in the chamber. As for the fact that Argonaut dispatched the knight to deliver the Lion King's order, it was even more impossible to run in front of Gawain.
How on earth did he know the king's order?
This doubt appeared in Gawain's mind, and Lancelot seemed to be able to guess the same: "I have already learned from other knights what happened during the period of Saint Baldwin. Lord Tristan is still receiving punishment from the Lion King. , the task of guarding the gate of the Holy City is inseparable from Gao Wenqing, and the Lion King is even more unlikely to take the initiative to appear, so it seems that the only candidates to attack are me and Mordred. I think, the Lion King will not rest assured Mordred I act alone, so I will also be one of the candidates for the expedition."
The perfect knight is well-deserved. Even if he sees a pair of armor, Lancelot's popularity is still high, and some people even think that there is no Lancelot at all, only a magic doll named Lancelot. , otherwise such a perfect knight would not exist in this world.
Gawain nodded expressionlessly: "That's right, the king sent you and Mordred to chase down the Servant who destroyed Shengba."
Apart from that, there is not much to say, the relationship between Gawain and Lancelot is probably at this level.
Lancelot nodded: "Then the Holy City and the Lion King are up to you, Gao Wenqing."
I don't know if it was an illusion, but Gawain felt that Lancelot's tone was full of excitement and anticipation. Was it because he had been here for too long, so he was looking forward to the moment he left?
There was an ominous premonition in Gawain's heart. He didn't like Lancelot, because of Britain, because of King Arthur, because of his brother, all in all, Lancelot was his least favorite among the Knights of the Round Table.
...
The Lixiang team escaped from the range of the Holy City. Along the way, they met the knights who were chasing the refugees. Naturally, they defeated them one by one without any difficulty. Because of this move, Matthew and Bedwell were accepted by the refugees. Even though Matthew and Bedwell found the marks of the Knights of the Round Table, they felt that the two could not agree with what the Sanctuary did and disobey the Lion King.
At the same time, with the unreasonable social skills of Magician S, even if they were hated at first, under the threat of survival at any time, they were willing to lead the Lixiang team to find the old man in the mountains.
This should be an unexpected gain. I didn't expect that the old man in the mountains, who I thought was difficult to approach, would find a chance to contact this time, but everyone's interest was not very high.
"Bedwell... It might not be a good time to ask you, but we still want to know what's the difference between this Gawain and the Gawain you know. When we saw Tristan, we thought it was a special case, but now it seems , The Lion King has the power to grant blessings to his subordinates. If you guess correctly, the enemies you encounter next are likely to have this special blessing."
"...that's the Holy Grail."
"Holy Grail?" Mona Lisa couldn't calm down for the first time, "How is it possible? How could this be the Holy Grail? There are Holy Grails collected in different singularities in my workshop, but it is absolutely impossible to do this. This is definitely not something that ordinary magic crystals can do. Could it be... the Holy Grail, is it the legendary Holy Grail? According to the legend of King Arthur, he once sent the Knights of the Round Table to find the Holy Grail, and in the end only the pure Garhad was able to touch the Holy Grail, but Garhad, who did not have the desire for the Holy Grail, gave up."
Bedwell looked at Mona Lisa in astonishment: "Yes, that is the Holy Grail. Miss Mona Lisa is really a wise and wise man who can get the truth from just a few words."
Bedwell's praise naturally made Mona Lisa proud: "Of course, I am a genius and beautiful girl Mona Lisa, a genius among geniuses."
"I don't think now is the time to be proud, Mona Lisa, at least you should watch the atmosphere."
"I don't understand the atmosphere there? Isn't it because I saw that the atmosphere was too dull, so I was active? Besides, I won't be lectured by you if I don't understand the atmosphere."
"I said you two..." Li Xiang watched Magician S and Mona Lisa suddenly chatting hotly, the blood vessels on his forehead were jumping up, "Now is not the time to say this, at least Give me a good idea of how to deal with those monster-like knights."
Lixiang's tone was full of killing intent, which made others puzzled for a while, but under the deterrence of Lixiang, Mona Lisa and Magician S had to keep their mouths shut.
"So, does Bedwell have any way to deal with it?"
"I'm sorry, I don't have any way to deal with it." Bedwell said with a wry smile, "The king never got the Holy Grail before he was born, and we have never understood the power of the Holy Grail. We only know that it is the almighty Grail that once contained holy blood."
This is completely different from the Holy Grail placed in the Mona Lisa workshop. The Holy Grail made by Gaetia is the Holy Grail in the field of magic. The Holy Grail is called the Omnipotent Grail because it provides enough magic power for the magician to use any magic.
But what is in the hands of the Lion King is different now. It is the Holy Grail that once touched the Son of Jesus, and it is a real wishing machine. Even ordinary people who don't know anything about magic can make any wish come true as long as they have the Holy Grail. Although this statement is too exaggerated, there is no doubt that this is a treasure that has reached the realm of the gods.
"Merlin saw this, so he helped me install this prosthetic limb. But you also saw that if it was just one Knight of the Round Table, it might be able to deal with it, but in the face of multiple Knights of the Round Table, even with the addition of other serious As a knight, I will feel exhausted. The power of the silver arm is very powerful, and only I can use it in an instant. If the state of liberation is maintained for a long time, my spiritual foundation will collapse." Bedwell regretted Said weakly again.
Blessing the Knights of the Round Table is the Lion King holding the Holy Grail. In addition to defeating the Knights of the Round Table head-on, there is only one way to defeat the Lion King, but if you don't defeat the Knights of the Round Table, it is wishful thinking to defeat the Lion King.
But thinking about the blessed Knights of the Round Table like Gawain and Tristan, how easy it is to defeat them, it's not enough to rely on Lixiang's team alone. Going back and forth, and ultimately relying on the strength of others, the people of the mountain...and the pharaoh.
"That Lion King is actually Arturia, right?"
Li Xiang's unexpected words made everyone quiet down.
This matter could not be kept from her, nor did he intend to keep it from her. The Knights of the Round Table have already appeared beside the Lion King, so the identity of the Lion King is self-evident. She is Lixiang's former Servant, King Arthur, and Arturia.
Magician S nodded: "The Lion King is King Arthur, and also the Artoria we know. But she is not the same as we know Artoria. You should be able to understand it, just like Artoria and Black Saber. , and Black Lancer. Although they are both Artorias, they are completely different individuals, with different results in different worlds.”
"Of course I know." Tachika shook her head, she accepted Magician S's statement, "It is absolutely impossible for Artoria to order her subordinates to slaughter civilians, we all know that. It's just... a little disappointed. "
Lixiang is still obsessed with finding Arturia. This time, she finally found Arturia, only to find that the other party is not only the Arturia she knew, but also a ruthless tyrant who can be defenseless against opponents. Li Xiang felt disappointed in this contrast.
Magician S looked at the sky, and then at the refugees whose faces were exhausted. They did not fight, but fled from the siege of the knights, and then fled without stopping, this group of hungry refugees was reaching its limit.
Although the sky is gradually getting brighter, it still has to--
"Everyone, we need to camp and rest."
"At this time to camp?"
"Well. Although this intensity of action is nothing to us, it is already the limit for ordinary people. Don't forget that we still have a long way to go, and proper rest can only go further."
They are going to find the old man in the mountains, but protecting these refugees is also one of their tasks, so they finally decided to rest on the spot.
"Joan of Arc and Mona Lisa go and see what can help them, David, pay attention to your alert, and your clairvoyance to see if there are any enemies approaching, Matthew and Rika have a rest, and Bedway Er, let your body rest for a while, the silver arm is too much burden on your body."
"how about you?"
"Me? I'll take a walk around."
Magician S arranged various tasks arbitrarily, but surprisingly no one objected to his words. Maybe Lixiang felt very uncomfortable, but she still accepted it for some reason, and she didn't even know the reason.
In fact, Magician S didn't plan to let everyone rest for too long. The sooner the old man in the mountains can be found, the better. Although he has left the sanctuary now, he has not forgotten that Tristan is leaving the sanctuary to hunt down the people of the mountain, and the Lion King is likely to make the same decision.
Section 790 Chapter 307 Evidence get√
Magician S has never had time to "go around". The singularity is full of dangers, and it is easy to deal with it if it is just the Chaldean team, but there are still a group of refugees around them, so they must take precautions.
Using clairvoyance to do these tasks is perfect. With just a glance, no matter how deeply hidden the enemy is, you can see through it at a glance. Since I met Merry at the last singularity, the use of clairvoyance has become more convenient.
He already had this experience.
——Very good, the threat has disappeared, and then you can rest in peace.
Use the fluctuation of magic power and the deterrence of sword energy to drive away the beast, and the stronger beast will simply make it fall into a dream, and the threat can be eliminated in an understatement.
Just when Magician S was about to turn back, he found that someone was approaching.
"Who...well, it's the Mona Lisa."
When I turned my head to look, I saw a black-haired beauty approaching. Mona Lisa was approaching with graceful steps. Even in the singularity of this disaster, she could not hide her beauty. The Allure Beauty.
"You really are here. Why did you stare blankly?" Mona Lisa approached with a mysterious smile that only belonged to her. "This is the second time I've seen this dull expression."
"The second time? When was the first time?"
"Have you forgotten? The first time was when I was summoned. You must have been surprised that Da Vinci was the Mona Lisa?"
A smug look appeared in the mysterious smile, and Mona Lisa was proud of her ability to captivate Magician S's appearance.
Who said it wasn't? Who would have thought that the self-portrait is the real body of a bearded old man turned out to be the Mona Lisa with a mysterious smile, whoever sees it will be stunned.
"Has the problem over there been resolved?"
The refugees fled in a panic, and there should be a lot of problems left. Magician S didn't expect Mona Lisa to come here at this time.
"No... They seem to be used to the life of flight, so they are very conscious to deal with their discomfort. Think about it, the Middle East has never been a peaceful place, especially in this era, after a long civil war, there are crusaders again. The invasion of , and now the Lion King, this is still a world-class crisis, and this land has never been calm."
