Along with the loud summoning words from Fujimaru Ritsuka's mouth, a spiritual base slowly took shape in the center of the summoning array.
Lawrence squinted his eyes, always paying attention to the situation in the summoning array.
"Now, Master, increase the magic power output!" Seeing the right moment, Lawrence said to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Fujimaru Ritsuka's pupils shrank, and the voice of the summons became louder.
"The three great speaking spirits will haunt you for seven days——"
Everyone looked nervously at Fujimaru Ritsuka, whose eyes and command spells were glowing at this moment.
"Cross the Wheel of Suppression and appear!"
"Guardian of the Scales!!"
Buzz——
Suddenly, a powerful momentum formed in the summoning array along with the spiritual base. The rolled up air flow made everyone involuntarily raise their arms to cover it, even Roman, who was in Chaldea.
When everyone came to their senses, the servant was already standing in the summoning formation.
It was a rather tall servant.
Hijikata Toshizo was already very tall, but the rider seemed to be even taller than Hijikata Toshizo, and moreover - he was more than three times stronger than Hijikata Toshizo.
He was wearing a heavy Chinese-style armor, a dark red cloak that looked like it was dyed with blood, and a long sword slung around his waist. What was striking was that he wore a ferocious mask on his face.
A dark aura emanated from his body and around him, making people feel as cold as the cold air of the underworld. Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was closest to him, even felt that his bones were frostbitten, especially those of the ferocious mask. Behind him, he could feel a sharp and scrutinizing gaze, which seemed to be considering him.
Even though she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, Fujimaru Ritsuka did not take a step back, but looked at the rider with a firm expression.
"Rider." The servant retracted his momentum, took a step forward, bowed slightly with his mountain-like body, clasped his fists at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said, "Xiang An, King of Northern Chu."
"If you take this stance as a follower, just call me the King of Hell of Northern Chu."
The follower named Xiang An straightened up, took off his mask, revealed the face behind the mask, and said solemnly: "At this singularity, I will serve as your follower at your command."
Fujimaru Ritsuka's tense expression finally relaxed. She smiled and grabbed Xiang An's rough palm and shook it.
"Welcome to join, rider Xiang An."
Xiang An said nothing more, just pursed his lips and nodded with a smile, and then glanced vaguely at Lawrence, who was standing not far behind Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Lawrence also nodded slightly.
Fujimaru Ritsuka noticed the small movements of the two people, blinked and said nothing, but involuntarily thought of a sentence once said by Caster's servant Manlio in the London Singularity.
"Do these names contain the 'anno' sound too strongly?"
Anno, Laurence Anno Falgo, Ocean Annos, Anno Zuomura...
There is also a London monster named Nora Brower. Although she does not have the complete pronunciation of anno, Fujimaru Ritsuka also feels that something is wrong. This is an intuition.
And now, Xiang An, King of Northern Chu...
According to records, Xiang An, the king of Northern Chu, had a surname of Ji, a surname of Xiang, a given name of Nuo, and a given name of An...
Lawrence seemed to be very familiar with these servants, especially this time summoning Xiang An was directly suggested by Lawrence.
There was something that he didn't know. Fujimaru Ritsuka touched his chin.
Lawrence saw Fujimaru Ritsuka's thoughtful expression and smiled involuntarily.
"Don't worry, Master." She walked to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side and touched Fujimaru Ritsuka's head. "If you want to ask, you can ask at any time. I won't hide it from you."
"Ah? Oh..." Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at Lawrence's gentle smile. Although he had done nothing wrong, he felt a little guilty for no reason, just like being caught by his mother secretly eating popsicles in the summer... ....
"In other words, Xiang An, the king of Northern Chu, has joined our side as a servant fighting force..." Roman was lowering his head and inputting the spiritual portrait.
"Gu knows what Gu wants to do. During the summoning process, Gu has already understood the master's wish, so don't worry, the voice sounds a bit...a magician." Hearing Roman's voice, Xiang An's brows furrowed for a moment, but they soon relaxed and she spoke with a normal expression.
"...Can I say that I care a little about what you omitted in your words?" Roman said helplessly.
He felt like the whole world was against him.
Many followers would not hesitate to speak harshly to him after hearing his voice. Xiang An was a relatively capable person, especially in this case, Ma Xiu would hit him from the side.
But this time, it seems that because of the sudden death of Director Olga Marie, Matthew has never been in a good mood, so he did not follow Xiang An to fight him.
"It's still twelve days before the negotiations in Green River. Before that, let's first understand Xiang An's Noble Phantasm and its parameters." Sighing, Roman tried not to think about these messy things. Instead, they talked about business, "It stands to reason that the advantages of Rider Job Agency over other Job Agency are faster and more durable foot power and more Noble Phantasms. So, Rider Beichu King of Hell Xiang An, you can tell us what you have." A few precious phantoms?”
"Of course I should offer it." Xiang An nodded and gently touched the eight-sided bronze sword on his waist, "There are eight of Gu's precious phantoms in total."
"...How many?" Roman thought he heard wrongly.
Arturia and Hijikata Toizo both looked over, as if they had said everything, and as if they had said nothing at all.
"Eight Noble Phantasms, this..." Mashu's eyes widened and his mouth opened, also looking shocked.
"Although I know that the rider job agency has the advantage of having more Noble Phantasms, but eight Noble Phantasms are too..." Roman didn't know what expression to use for a while, and he grinned.
"Don't be too surprised, Master and colleagues." Xiang An shook his head, "Although Gu has a lot of Noble Phantasms, in fact there are only two or three that are of sufficient quality, and the remaining few Noble Phantasms are not even Ways to liberate.”
"The three weapons Gu used before he was alive were three Noble Phantasms respectively, but except for Gu's big beryllium, the other two weapons are all of the head-adding type." Xiang An grasped a gun with a gun as thick as his forearm. Beryllium appeared in his hand.
This is the [King of Hell Big Beryllium], which is three feet long. In the Qin Dynasty, one foot was about 2.25 meters. In other words, this big beryllium is nearly seven meters long.
"What a huge weapon. Although it's not as exaggerated as Karna's gun, it's even bigger in terms of length." Helena looked at the big beryllium and marveled.
