My name is Illya,
The Yangtze River Knight is dead.

"What are you doing?"
The crosshair of the sniper scope has been firmly locked on the magician who is slowly falling from the sky. Just pull the trigger and one of the enemies in the Holy Grail War will be completely eliminated.
However, when Kuu Maiya pulled the trigger, the barrel of the gun was lifted high by a huge force, and the bullet that came out of the barrel flew to nowhere.
Only then did she notice Caster, who claimed to be the Saint of Winter, floating in front of her and asked in a strange tone.
Maiya had heard words in the same tone once before. It was her first mission with Kiritsugu, and she almost killed innocent people because of some wrong information. After being stopped by Kiritsugu, his words were exactly the same, even the words used.
Could it be that I was wrong again?
Although Maiya acts in accordance with Kiritsugu's instructions in most cases, she occasionally cooperates spontaneously according to the situation, and can basically help Kiritsugu further achieve his goals.
For example, this time the Emiya residence was attacked. Kiritsugu and his wife each took a saber to evacuate, which completely attracted the enemy's attention. Although there was no order, it was not natural for him to take the opportunity to sneak attack and eliminate an enemy after being ignored. Something?
"Have you ever considered the consequences of this shot?"
Caster landed on the roof of the off-road vehicle and stared directly at Maiya with his ruby eyes.
"I don't care if Kiritsugu messes around with him, because he is protected by Saber. What about you? That one shot may successfully knock out one of the opponents, but how can you escape from two magicians? This off-road vehicle? I If not nearby, are you prepared to trade one life for another?"
That would be profitable——but Maiya did not say this in the end.
Compared to Lin Hao, who occasionally had conversations with her, her servnt had almost no communication with her. She was outside promoting the Holy Grail War in her own way. The only interaction she had was when Maiya was about to die after being struck by Kiritsugu's origin. When the Winter Saint hurried back to transfer the injury to herself, it was precisely for this reason that her life could have been given by the other party, so she could not refute her approach of protecting her own members.
But... judging from the current intelligence, it seems that she is protecting all magicians participating in the Holy Grail War? No, it's impossible. How can a war not kill people?
"You should go back to the mansion by the river to tidy up now," Caster said to her: "Both Kiritsugu and Mrs. Kiritsugu will inevitably have a fierce battle today. I hope they can rest immediately when they return."
Hua Hua Hua——
At this time, a crowd of ordinary tourists chasing the strange excavator and the gem UFO finally arrived, but they turned a blind eye and walked around Maiya's off-road vehicle as if they were encountering a river with rocks.
"I understand." Maiya finally nodded.
41:53:12
"Ahead of us are the ruins of Einzbern Castle, Irisviel, but I still can't feel Kiritsugu's presence."
The silver-white heavy-duty locomotive shuttled nimbly through the forest, like a white bird, dodging with extraordinary ease the excavator that was rampaging behind it like a violent black bear and the trees thrown by it.
"Perhaps Kiritsugu was trapped by the enemy, but we also have one less pursuer here - the spaceship."
Irisviel hugged Saber Lily's waist and looked behind her. Except for the dark excavator, there was no aircraft following her in the sky.
"So we can stop and fight him?" Even though Saber Lily was not the king of Britain yet, her pride still did not allow her to escape blindly.
"Before that, we have to destroy the excavator——" Irisviel responded: "It doesn't look like it will stop because it is out of oil."
"I think so -" The silver heavy motorcycle jumped up high on a slope, and when it landed again, it had entered the range of Einzbern Castle: "This motorcycle has long been out of oil. It depends entirely on my magic power." Release and maintain it!"
"Then, just hold on for a moment longer and circle around the ruins of the castle." Irisviel looked at the dark machine that crashed through the slope and chased after it, and mithril threads began to appear on her hands: "I'll find a way to destroy it. "
"Then please!" This period of time spent together had cultivated enough trust between Irisviel and Saber Lily. She did not hesitate to swoop the rear of the car and go around the still intact main entrance of the castle. Heading towards the garden.
"[Wreckage, move] -" Irisviel recited a magic incantation, and waved her hand to throw out the pieces of enchanted mithril threads. They seemed to be controlled by someone, and the two ends were attached to the trees and Immobilizes on rocks as well as land and quickly becomes invisible.
As a result, the path of the silver locomotive was filled with transparent traps that could cut the hard rock in half.
Boom, boom, boom!
However, for an excavator that has been strengthened by [Knight Immortality and Unarmed] and has a quality of D-level Noble Phantasm, the threat of these threads can be completely ignored. As long as you simply rush past, they will inevitably be smashed into two. part.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
"Irisviel, are you okay yet?" Saber didn't pay much attention to Berserker's provocation. She continued to circle Einzbern Castle and avoid the stones and logs thrown by Berserker from time to time.
"It'll be ready soon -" Irisviel threw away all the remaining mithril threads in her hand, and then looked at the main entrance she just passed: "This is the last lap!"
Boom! The excavator passed by, and the trap Irisviel had just left was broken again.
Since Irisviel did not throw another mithril thread this time, their speed increased to a higher level, and they quickly escaped from Berserker's sight at the next corner.
If it were to escape in a straight line, the silver motorcycle would definitely not be a match for the black and red excavator in terms of speed. However, if it chose to spin, the excavator, which did not change its direction, was gradually pulled away.
"Ho ho ho -" Berserker waved the excavator's mechanical arm and dug out a stone from the ruined castle wall, preparing to throw it directly after going around the corner.
Then, an unusually huge Irisviel made of mithril threads appeared in front of him.
"Wu ga——" berserker's roar changed its tone.
"Bang." The huge Irisviel clapped her hands and stopped the excavator in place. Then she freed her hands, knocked down the still intact main entrance of the castle, and buried the excavator and berserker in the ruins.
"Well, how was that done?" Saber Lily had stopped the motorcycle not far behind the giant Ellie, and helped Irisviel to jump off.
"Some kind of deception." Irisviel jumped off the motorcycle, straightened her skirt and hat and looked at the ruins: "Every time he broke the mithril thread, he thought he had destroyed a trap, but how could the thread be broken just because it was broken?" Out of action?"
"So, that image doesn't actually have the power to stop the excavator, but it just re-energizes the mithril threads attached to the surface of the excavator and makes them grip the ground at the same time?" Saber thought.
"Sure enough, the Master does not actually threaten the Servant's power." Irisviel suddenly took a step back: "He will crawl out soon, so I can only leave it to you, Saber."
Following Irisviel's movements, the huge humanoid figure made of mithril threads collapsed, forming a giant barrier around the buried excavator.
"Ouch——"
Berserker broke through the ruins caused by the collapse of the main entrance and jumped out. At the same time, he waved the excavator's tracks in his hand like a soft whip - of course, it was still red and black.
"Sir Lancelot du Lake, Knight of the Lake! I know it's you!" Saber Lily raised the dazzling gold and blue sword in the stone towards him and shouted at the same time: "Although it's not I know what resentment you have towards me in the future, but if you still have the glory of a knight, then draw your sword and don’t let [Indestructible Lake Light] be shamed!”
"Quack, quack, quack—"
A sound similar to laughter came from the dark armor. At the same time, the black mist surrounding him began to roll back. [Glory Not for Myself], a degraded version of the inherent skill that can be transformed into other heroic spirits, was gradually disappearing, and at the same time, it was revealed that There was the gorgeous armor that had been displayed once in this life, and the majestic face that was different from that time due to the madness, looking black and crazy.
"Well...if Brother Kai becomes like this, I may collapse and lose my will to fight." Saber Lily's green eyes only fluctuated for a moment before returning to normal: "It's a pity, although I know that there is still something between you and me. It’s an entanglement that didn’t happen, but I don’t have any pity or guilt for you – rather, this feeling would be an insult to the battle between us.”
Hum - the reflection of the sharp blade in the sun is like the sparkling lake water. It is an elf sword that will never be damaged by any blow, [Indestructible Lake Light]. At this moment, it is firmly held in the name of the sword. The sword in the stone in the hand of the girl from Artoria resonates with fighting spirit.
"Asa——" Because he was not in the state of strengthening the command spell, Berserker could not express himself, and even his consciousness was in chaos. However, he still put up a posture of raising his sword to fight, and even the black and frantic face showed Excitement.
"According to the future trajectory, this sword will be broken by killing a Knight of the Round Table. I don't intend to verify whether you are one of them. Therefore, I will directly release the true name of the Noble Phantasm." Following Saber's words, Countless golden light spots began to emerge from the surroundings and merged into the golden and blue sword she raised in front of her.
"Woo quack quack—" Berserker also made preparations for a swing. The sunlight reflected on the blade of his sword rippled around, forming a virtual image of an extremely wide body of water behind him.
"[Indestructible Lake Light] (aroundight)!"
"[Victory Golden Sword] (caliburn)!"
The green sword light surged toward Saber like an overflowing lake, but was shattered by countless golden streams of light that descended from it. Moreover, this was not an evenly matched confrontation. Each of those golden streams of light was enough to easily swing Berserker out with all his strength. The sword light was completely destroyed.
Ah, I see, the person in front of him was not a practicing King Arthur at all.
Before being engulfed by the golden stream of light, berserker's mind regained its clarity slightly.
This girl in white is a new ship, sailing towards all possible forms of King Arthur and all possible futures. Maybe she will become the unintelligible King Arthur that she hates so much. Maybe she will become the same. The black King Arthur who appeared in this war is more likely to be a pure white king who is full of hope and brings hope to others. He can truly save Britain without causing any pain or misfortune.
"I wish I could see——"
These were the last words left by the heroic spirit named Lancelot who occupied the berserker class in this world.
