"Mr. Anno!?" Mashu and Fujimaru Ritsuka exclaimed in surprise.
The knight in white armor seemed to have noticed that someone else was approaching, and his pursuit of the men in black robes accelerated.
The leader of the black-robed man said angrily: "What the hell, what's going on with this guy? He's not at the same strength as the usual Holy City knights -"
"Hurry up and retreat! We can't defeat this guy!"
Another man in black robe yelled, then ran out quickly and threw away the things he was carrying.
Not long after, the men in black robes disappeared into the wind and sand. They seemed not to be affected by the strong wind and yellow sand.
After the knights in white armor saw the men in black robes putting down the things they were carrying, they had no intention of continuing to pursue them. They just stopped in front of the things that were thrown to the ground, with their backs to Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, slightly After measuring his head, he asked in a deep voice.
"Who are you? Why are you peeking behind my back?"
"An -" Ma Xiu seemed a little unable to control himself and opened his mouth to say hello.
"Wait a minute." Da Vinci seemed to have remembered something and stopped Matthew who wanted to say hello.
"Matthew, we can't confirm his position now, and there seems to be another rider beside him. Proceed with caution!" Da Vinci was admonishing Matthew with a serious face, and then she suddenly noticed that Alto Leah walked past her and called out anxiously.
"It doesn't matter. If it's this person, even if he doesn't know his position, he will never attack innocent people." Arturia said with a smile as she walked.
Her eyes were focused on the knight, and her usually cold tone finally contained a little emotion.
"Am I right, Knight of the Round Table, Anno?"
Annuo turned around, seeming a little surprised.
He sheathed the sword and did not move immediately, but felt something carefully.
Then, he walked to Artoria in a few steps, knelt down on one knee, and lowered his head.
"King, Knight Annuo will, as always, offer you my only loyalty."
In the wind and sand, the knight in white armor knelt in front of the black king, making everyone in the distance slightly stunned.
"Get up."
The black king just smiled and pulled Annuo up.
Annuo stood up and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Matthew behind Artoria. He was also slightly surprised. Then he thought about it and sighed softly.
"Master, Kirilet, as expected, you have also reached this singularity point." Annuo walked up to Fujimaru Ritsuka and bowed lightly.
"Mr. Anno, do you remember what happened to Fuyuki?" Fujimaru Ritsuka was slightly surprised.
"Hey, that's interesting." Da Vinci walked to Anno's side curiously and looked him up and down, "It stands to reason that after a servant returns to the Throne of Heroes, even if he is summoned again, he will not be summoned the same way as the last time. Summoned memory, you actually have the memory of the last time?"
"Is it possible that your job agency is not Saber, but Avenger?"
Avenger, one of the Avengers, one of the ex-jobs, has the ability called "Forgetting Correction", which can clearly remember every memory that is summoned.
"I am not an avenger, ma'am." Annuo took a step back and bowed politely.
"Well~ He is indeed the most standard knight. It is a kind of enjoyment to bear this kind of etiquette in a sense." Da Vinci always had a smile on his face, but several other people traveling with him could clearly see the hidden meaning. The "playful smile" behind the gentle smile.
"I am Leonardo da Vinci, White Knight, please give me your advice."
Annuo nodded slightly, held Da Vinci's hand, shook it slightly and then separated it immediately.
"A Florentine artist is also a pioneer of mankind and a pioneer of stars. It's a pleasure to meet him." He didn't ask uninterestedly whether this great scholar recorded as a man would appear in front of him in such an image. He just made it clear. After the other party's achievement, he quietly backed away.
"Mr. Anno, why did you appear at this singularity?" Matthew came over and asked with some confusion.
She felt a little strange, because when she saw Annuo, she had the same feeling as Fuyuki's singularity before.
Familiar. It felt like I had been taken care of by this serious and powerful knight somewhere before.
Annuo did not answer immediately.
He just lowered his head in silence, his right arm subconsciously covering his left arm, and then looked back at Arturia Alter, who had already walked back.
"This singularity is a bit strange." Arturia took the initiative and said with a thoughtful look on her face, "I feel... very familiar."
"Familiar." Fujimaru Ritsuka tapped her head lightly with the knuckle of her index finger, as if she was thinking about something.
"It's not because of my teacher, but because of something else." Arturia responded.
"It's because of this."
Annuo's right hand pressed on his left shoulder and exerted force.
Click——
Annuo's left arm was ripped off by himself.
"Fuck!" Andersen, who was standing a little close, was frightened by Annuo's actions and took a big step back.
"Ah" Mashu felt that tears almost burst out of his eyes for some reason, and he covered his mouth with trembling hands.
"——Mr. Annuo!" Artoria frowned when she noticed Annuo's movements. She took a step forward, but she didn't have time to stop her. She could only watch Annuo remove her left arm.
Then, in a flash of light, the removed left arm transformed into the appearance she was most familiar with.
"Excalibur?" She looked at the holy sword in Anno's hand and murmured.
Unlike Artoria, other people's eyes were focused on Annuo himself.
An Nuo, who had taken off his left arm, was still tall and tall, but his whole body was no longer strong and became as withered as a mummy, like a piece of rotten wood that would be wiped out at any time.
"Mr. Anno, you..." Fujimaru Ritsuka frowned and subconsciously wanted to help him.
Matthew stood behind her, already a little helpless. Fortunately, Da Vinci, who had quick eyesight and quick hands, was able to hold Matthew back.
But Artoria also reached out to pick up the holy sword.
However, Annuo forced his withered body to take a step back, avoiding Artoria's hand and Fujimaru Ritsuka's support.
"King, I cannot hand over this holy sword to you." Annuo said in a deep voice, lowering his head.
Arturia was a little confused, but after thinking about it again and again, she still didn't ask, and just nodded.
"You must have your own reasons for doing this, right? Annoqing?"
Putting the holy sword back on the empty left arm, the light reappeared, and Annuo returned to his previous state, exhaling a heavy breath.
"nature."
