"…"
Seeing Fangzheng turn around, Black Saber raised the sword in his hand with a solemn expression. It wasn't that he didn't think of intervening in the battle between both sides. Even though this person seemed to be an ally, no one knew what was going on for now. Besides …
Black Saber couldn't help but glance at Golder. He should be glad that his master was too shocked to give him an order. Otherwise, if Vanyi Gold ordered Black Saber to attack Red Lancer together with that mysterious person, Black Saber would not know if he should carry out the order.
Fangzheng stared coldly at Black Saber. Frankly speaking, he really wanted to kill this guy. But after hesitating for a few moments, Fangzheng turned around and a magical radiance flashed across his body. At the next moment, Fangzheng vanished into the wilderness.
"It seems like this battle has come to an end."
As Ruler spoke, he took another look at the two men before him.
"Alright then, I'll take my leave too."
"Ah, please wait, Miss Ruler!"
Upon hearing Ruler's words, Golder woke up from his daze and hurried to her side.
"Please head to the Thousand World Tree's castle. It will be safer there …"
"It's fine. As the Ruler, I can sense all the battles in this area. As soon as a battle breaks out, I will naturally rush over to check it out."
After saying this, the Ruler turned around and left. Gazing at her departing back, Golder gnashed his teeth and clenched his fists. After a few moments, he let out a snort, turned around, and headed for the car parked by the road on the other side.
"I didn't expect to waste a command charm at the start of the battle."
When Red Lancer opened her eyes again, the first thing she heard was a rather leisurely voice. Along with this voice, she saw a young man with brown skin and white hair wearing a priest's uniform walking over with a smile on his face. This young man was the commander of the Red Team and also the supervisor sent by the church — Yan Fengshiro.
He was not the master of Red Lancer, but when Red Lancer was summoned, she only saw him when she opened her eyes. According to the priest, the other Masters wouldn't show up for safety reasons and he would be in charge of delivering orders and executing the plan. Although it sounded like there was a problem, it wasn't important to the Red Lancer as he just needed to complete the mission.
But … the mission failed.
"I really didn't expect you to fail."
Behind the priest, several other servants also appeared. They were the same as the Red Lancer. They were summoned to the Red Team. Frankly speaking, they all agreed that Red Lancer had the strongest strength and martial arts among them, but they didn't expect that he would be defeated in this battle that could only be considered a scout battle. He was even forced to use a command charm to leave this place.
"The other party was prepared."
Red Lancer replied in a deep voice. She didn't think too much about it during the battle, but now that she thought about it, the knight's every move seemed to be calculated based on her reaction. His battle wasn't to test her or fight to the death. Instead, he had a clear goal of "killing her."
Since the start of the battle, every attack was to achieve this goal, and … without hesitation.
"That was close."
The smile on Yan Fengshiro's face didn't change at all.
"To be honest, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to escape successfully. After all, there are also Noble Artifacts that can't escape once they bind you."
"I was lucky to escape," Red Lancer said calmly.
Red Lancer said calmly. Just as he said, the reason why Red Lancer was able to break free was because of his Noble Relic. It was a set of powerful armor that could protect Red Lancer and weaken all hostile interference. It was also because of the Noble Artifact that the opponent's binding power was weakened by a lot. If not, perhaps even with the support of the command seal, Red Lancer wouldn't be able to escape from the Heaven Lock's binding.
"I was just betting on my luck."
Yan Fengshiro smiled and sat down on the chair at the side.
"Since the opponent was able to use that Noble Artifact, he must be confident that he could trap you. In this case, I had no choice but to stake it all on this one throw. After all, the battle has just begun and we can't afford to lose our strongest servant … "
At this point, the priest's expression turned solemn.
"So then, can you confirm the opponent's identity? Although it seems like Saber, the black camp has obviously summoned one Saber and it is impossible for them to summon two Sabers at the same time. If they really used this method, the ruler wouldn't just watch from the side. Do you have anything to say about this heroic spirit? "
"Of course."
Hearing Fengshiro's question, Red Lancer nodded silently.
"First of all, I would like to clarify that the opponent isn't a heroic spirit or a servant. He's a human."
"… What?"
Shocked screams echoed in the hall. Golder stared blankly at Black Saber and gritted his teeth.
"Stop joking around, Saber! Are you trying to say that Red Lancer was defeated by a human? "
"That's right, Master."
Black Saber nodded.
"Servants can sense each other. I can feel that the knight was not summoned like me and Red Lancer. He was not a spirit condensed by magic. He isn't a heroic spirit like the ruler who descended on a living person. Instead, he's a human through and through … If you want me to be more specific, he's more like a hero from the myths and legends of our era. "
"What a joke! How is it possible for such an existence to appear now?! "
Golder shook his head. He even suspected that his servant was lying. In this era, it was impossible for a hero from the mythical era to appear. If such a powerful being existed, it was impossible for magicians to not know about him. Could it be that he popped out from a crack in a rock?
"Golder, don't be impatient."
At this moment, Darnik, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke.
"No matter who the other party is, from his actions, it's obvious that the other party isn't hostile towards us. And no matter what, thanks to him, the Red Team's Master has already used up a command seal. For us, this is good news, isn't it?"
"Yes … Mr. Darnik, of course, I understand …"
Golder's chubby face trembled. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. Originally, Gold had taken the initiative to attack with Saber. First, he wanted to show off his valiance as a servant. Second, he wanted to take the opportunity to rope in Ruler to his side. However, he failed to achieve either of his goals.
The ruler didn't accept his invitation, and the limelight that he was supposed to show off was snatched away by this guy who came out of nowhere!
In the end, he ended up acting like a fool and wasting so much time for nothing!
