Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch - #550 - Chapter 550 Arena of Heroes
“Good judgment.”
Lin Zhongtian’s slightly appreciative voice fell from the sky.
The blond man came back to his senses, raised the corner of his mouth, and said softly with a smile: “I really didn’t expect that a being like you could actually give birth to consciousness, and even personality… Tell me, call me here. , why?”
Lin Zhongtian smiled and told the story of the final battlefield of the Holy Grail War.
Kotomine Kirei frowned as he heard this, seeming a little disappointed that he had to face off head-on.
The blond man also frowned, but soon relaxed his brows and said with a smile: “If you want me to perform, you can, but I need to get a promise from you. If I win this battle, will the Holy Grail be left alone?” What will this king do?”
“certainly!”
Lin Zhongtian said without hesitation.
The blond man glanced at Tong Shen, Tohsaka Rin and others opposite him, and said calmly: “Since you don’t care about the Holy Grail, you should also know the true face of the Holy Grail right now, right?”
“certainly.”
Lin Zhongtian smiled and nodded again.
The blond man looked at him deeply, then chuckled and jumped down from the auditorium.
“Very good.” The blond man was the first to land in the center of the arena. His eyes seemed to be looking up, but in fact he was looking down at the audience and said proudly, “I am Gilgamesh, the ancient king who rules over everything! “
“You miscellaneous cultivators, who will be my opponent?”
As soon as he finished speaking, an unspeakable momentum rose from Gilgamesh’s body.
There was a strange commotion from Tohsaka Rin and others in the auditorium opposite.
Saber couldn’t help but take a step forward, looking at the golden glitter below with disbelief.
“…Why is it you?!”
“We meet again, Saber!”
Gilgamesh had a faint smile on his face.
Saber’s face was solemn: “As far as I know, the seven heroic spirits of this generation have all appeared… Why do you appear here?”
“Isn’t it obvious~” Gilgamesh had a pleasant smile on his face and chuckled at everyone’s gaze, “After the last Holy Grail War, I did not disappear, but stayed in this world. superior.”
Saber was shocked: “How is this possible?”
“Because I am the only heroic spirit who has bathed in the Holy Grail!”
Gilgamesh laughed happily and said, “Yes, it’s all thanks to you, Saber!”
“In the Holy Grail War ten years ago, I was one step away from getting the Holy Grail, but you stopped me. The Holy Grail was cut in half in front of me by your sword of victory…”
“What?” Emiya Shirou and Tohsaka Rin were both shocked, “Saber once cut off the Holy Grail?”
Gilgamesh didn’t care about their reactions and continued to smile: “The Holy Grail broke, and the contents flowing out turned into flames, burning all the surrounding streets. The king, who was directly under the Holy Grail, was naturally washed away by the torrent. “
“Since then, I have obtained this body that can remain in the world.”
“It was also from that time that I learned the true identity of the Holy Grail…”
At this point, Gilgamesh paused slightly, then lowered his head, looked at his palm and said lightly: “It’s really a boring thing… Although it’s boring, it’s still useful.”
“Since then, I have made a decision. That is something that only I am qualified to deal with!”
Hearing Gilgamesh’s words, Tohsaka Rin couldn’t help but look stunned.
Shirou Emiya couldn’t help but glance at Saber, his eyes slightly dim.
‘Did the fire ten years ago turn out to be because Saber cut off the Holy Grail…’
Gilgamesh glanced at the people in the audience and suddenly changed the topic: “I hate the perspective of looking up.”
As he spoke, Gilgamesh raised his foot and stepped lightly. A flying boat made of gold and emeralds emerged from the golden ripples, carrying his body and rising rapidly, and soon reached the same level as the top of the stone pillar. the height of.
Feeling the solid space barrier above, Gilgamesh frowned slightly and looked up at Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly: “I also hate the perspective of looking up.”
“…”
The corner of Gilgamesh’s mouth twitched. Considering Lin Zhongtian’s identity in his eyes, he still suppressed his anger and said nothing, and turned to look at the people in the audience below.
“So, who’s going to die?!”
Arrogant words filled with the aura of a king came from above.
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows and immediately laughed.
“Someone will kill you!”
Before he finished speaking, Lu Bu took a step forward.
But at this moment, two silver lights burst out at the same time, teleporting Lu Bu and Gilgamesh back to their original positions.
Gilgamesh was slightly stunned, couldn’t help but raise his head, glared at Lin Zhongtian and said: “What on earth do you mean?”
“My king’s patience has its limit!”
Lin Zhongtian chuckled: “Don’t worry, I haven’t announced the rules yet!”
“There are six Heroic Spirits present. Let’s catch pairs and eliminate three. One of the remaining three will have a bye and advance directly to the finals. The two without a bye will advance to the semi-finals to determine the second finalist.”
“In the end, two people with both luck and strength will compete in the final to determine the final winner!”
After hearing the rules promulgated by Lin Zhongtian, everyone in the audience had different expressions.
Gilgamesh frowned and waved his hand impatiently.
“Then it’s settled, let’s get started!”
“Very good.” Lin Zhongtian nodded, glanced at the people in the audience, and chuckled, “Then I announce that the first World’s No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament, named by the Holy Grail, has officially begun!”
“…”
Hearing the term No. 1 Martial Arts Club in the World, Tong Shen finally couldn’t help but turn his head and look at Lu Bu.
“Uncle Bu, tell me the truth, who is this guy?”
“…Boy, be careful!”
Lu Bu glared at him, and before he could say another word, he was engulfed in a sudden burst of silver light.
On the ground of the arena, six heroic spirits emerged from the silver light and appeared on three battlefields divided into three equal parts of the ring arena.
On the battlefield to the north, Lu Bu raised his halberd and pointed it at the spearmen wearing blue armor on the opposite side.
“We meet again, Lancer.”
“Yes!” The Lan family spearman put the scarlet spear on his shoulder, with a fighting smile on his handsome face, “This time, I can finally fight you without any scruples!”
“Ha ha!”
Lu Bu laughed loudly, waved his halberd and jumped: “Then come!”
“Qiang——”
The pitch-black halberd collided with the scarlet spear, causing fierce sparks to fly out.
On the battlefield next door, Saber held an invisible sword and looked solemnly at the tall black figure in front of her.
“…Did you get the lottery?”
“Roar!!”
Berserker roared angrily, and suddenly swung the exaggerated ax sword in his hand, setting off a howling wind.
Saber sighed, then said with a serious face: “Come on, let’s continue our unfinished battle!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Saber stepped on the ground beneath her feet and rushed towards the opposite Berserker like a gust of wind.
At the same time, Gilgamesh stood on a flying boat made of gold and emeralds with his hands in his pockets, looking down at the nameless heroic spirit in red with contempt and pride in his eyes.
“…It’s actually you!”
“I thought I would meet the strongest monster, or the unparalleled Lu Bu, but I didn’t expect that it would be you, an unknown miscellaneous cultivator…”
As he spoke, Gilgamesh sighed, golden ripples appeared in the air behind him, and said impatiently: “Let’s take action quickly and see if you are qualified to be my sideshow!”
“…”
Hearing Gilgamesh’s words, Hong A, who had remained silent, suddenly smiled.
“Six heroic spirits, it was me who faced you. I’m so sorry, King of Heroes – you got the lottery!”
…
…
In the audience, Tong Shen and others stood there with furrowed brows, looking at the handsome young man floating in front of them.
Lin Zhongtian’s eyes swept across Tong Shen and the others, and finally landed on Kotomine Kirei, who he had just captured across space.
“As Master.” Lin Zhongtian suddenly chuckled and said, “You can choose to watch the battle in the audience, or go out in person and fight side by side with your own heroes.”
“If you are a spectator, you will not be able to use magic and command spells.”
“But if you are fighting in person, you must have the consciousness to die in battle…”
“So, what are your options?”
After saying that, Lin Zhongtian stopped talking and looked at the people in front of him with interest.
Kotomine Kirei glanced at the command spells engraved on his arm, and reason told him that staying in the audience was the safest choice. However, considering the fact that the Lancer had been defeated by Lu Bu, he suddenly said:
“I choose to fight.”
“……very good.”
Lin Zhongtian nodded, and without seeing any movement from him, Kotomine Kirei was teleported to Lancer’s side.
The remaining four people, except Tong Shen who stood there calmly, the other three were a little hesitant.
Emiya Shirou gritted his teeth and was about to leave to fight alongside Saber when Lin Zhongtian suddenly spoke again.
“Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that if you choose to watch the battle, I will supply the magic power of the heroic spirit, but if you choose to go out and fight with it in person, you will need to supply the magic power yourself…”
…is there such a thing? !
Everyone in the audience looked stunned.
Tohsaka Rin frowned and said, “Why didn’t you say anything just now?”
Lin Zhongtian spread his hands and said innocently: “I forgot.”
Tohsaka Rin was very skeptical. She felt that Lin Zhongtian was deliberately digging a hole for Kotomine Kirei to jump into.
Tong Shen’s eyes lit up and he said without hesitation: “I choose to watch the battle!”
After finishing speaking, he approached Shirou Emiya again and said softly: “I suggest you choose to watch the battle as well. Saber’s strength is far more powerful than you think. It’s just that your magic power is insufficient, so it has been greatly weakened.”
“If this mysterious man in front of you provides the magic power, I believe that Berserker is definitely no match for her!”
Hearing Tong Shen’s words, Emiya Shirou became hesitant again.
Tohsaka Rin thought for a moment and said decisively: “Then I also choose to watch the battle!”
“It just so happens that there is an ownerless heroic spirit on the opposite side. We are two against one. Even if we win, we won’t win…”
Looking at Rin Tosaka who spoke so confidently, Tong Shen couldn’t help but complain: “Isn’t it because you care about your magic gem?”
Tohsaka Rin glared at him and said with a slightly red face: “You are the only one who talks too much!”
