Under the attack of the Hillfolk, the encirclement of the Solemn Knights was soon broken through, and an opening was opened, allowing the refugees to escape in a frenzy.
Logically speaking, this should not have happened.
After all, the Solemn Knights were existences between humans and servants. Although they were not sub-servants like Matthew, they were still much stronger than humans. On the other hand, the Hillfolk were a group of ordinary humans. Compared to the Solemn Knights, there should be a big gap between them and them. It was impossible for them to break through so smoothly.
However, it seemed that this was not the first time the Hillfolk had fought against the Solemn Knights. They were very well-trained. When fighting against the Solemn Knights, they would often form a small team of at least three people and restrain one Solemn Knight together. Then, they would charge through the formation and separate the Solemn Knights one by one, defeating them one by one. Only then did they achieve a good result.
The Hillfolk were very clear about the weakness of the Solemn Knights. Their absolute obedience to the King and the Round Table and their overly rational thinking made their actions rigid to a certain extent. As long as the Hillfolk continued to fight with guerrilla tactics and improvisation, they could toy with the Solemn Knights in the palm of their hands.
This should be the result of Altoria's training, right?
Therefore, the Hillfolk were able to break through very smoothly.
Of course, that was all they could do. They could not cover the refugees' escape at all.
It was because Altoria knew this that she allowed the refugees to escape as much as they could. She did not force them at all.
If things developed normally, under such circumstances, even if they could escape in the end, more than half of the refugees would be left behind.
However, not only were the Hillfolk here, but also Chaldea.
"Break through to the east!"
"The defense there is the weakest!"
"The escape route has been planned! Retreat according to this route! "
Olga Marie, Roman, and Da Vinci seemed to have been prepared for a long time. They took the lead in planning the escape route. Even if the Hillfolk could not cover them, they could still guide the refugees to escape as much as possible.
Coupled with the cover of the dragons, the result was miraculously that none of the refugees were killed and all of them escaped on the spot.
Of course, Rozen's contribution was not small.
Rozen still used the power of Heavenly Eye and Magic Defense to block the attacks for the refugees when the Grand Knights attacked them, which saved the lives of all the refugees.
Not only that, but Rozen also blocked the Knights of the Round Table.
"You guys should stay."
With that said, Rozen personally manipulated several dragons and had them entangle the pursuing Knights of the Round Table.
Then, Rozen looked at the interior of the Holy Capital. After hesitating for a while, he finally sighed.
"That's it for today."
Although Rozen really wanted to fight the Lion King directly, it had to be said that in a situation where there were so many people around, Rozen really couldn't let loose.
General magic and curses were ineffective against the Lion King, and the destructive power of releasing his beasts was too high. If he didn't want all these people to become cannon fodder and die under the power of his own beasts, then Rozen was destined to be unable to do anything.
Rozen also thought of using the power of Silver Mist Carapace to mist the people around him, so that they would not be killed, just like when he fought against Jess in Vibelle. But Rozen did not forget that the Lion King still had three Holy Grails as his trump cards.
With the power of the Holy Grail, it was easy for the Lion King to remove the ability of Silver Mist Carapace.
Not to mention, the Lion King himself also had other powers, so he might be able to do something about it.
And based on the Holy Punishment Ritual, it was impossible for the Lion King to let the refugees go.
Therefore, letting the refugees retreat was the best choice.
Unless, Rozen completely disregarded the lives of the refugees.
That kind of thing, even if Rozen was ruthless enough to do it, Mashu wouldn't be ruthless enough.
But …
"I will definitely come back, Lion King."
Leaving such words, Rozan Can began to retreat.
Matthew had already been caught by Altoria, and she retreated all the way and left the battlefield.
Seeing that, the Knights of the Round Table and the Solemn Knight tried their best to stop them, but it was useless under the obstruction of the dragon summoned by Rozen.
In the end, Altoria released her noble phantasm again without mercy, waved her holy sword, and blasted the dark torrent of light toward the Knights of the Round Table and the Solemn Knight, completely cutting off their pursuit.
In this way, everyone safely evacuated.
Only the Knights of the Round Table were left, kneeling on one knee, and the Solemn Knight fell to the ground one by one, dying.
"Damn it!"
Modred slammed his fist on the ground, smashing the ground.
"I didn't expect that the Round Table would suffer such a big defeat at this time."
Trystan sighed, his face full of melancholy.
"The King of Darkness …"
Gawain lowered his eyes.
"What a great humiliation …!"
Agwen was even more furious.
Ever since they were summoned to this era, the Knights of the Round Table had never suffered such a big loss.
After being blessed by the Lion King, they possessed powers far greater than before. Other than Agwen, the other three Knights of the Round Table all had powers above Altoria. Otherwise, they wouldn't have taken a hit from Altoria's noble phantasm and only knelt on one knee and suffered minor injuries.
However, even though that was the case, they were still toyed by Altoria. Naturally, the Knights of the Round Table had complicated feelings.
After all, their opponent was also the King they once served.
Mordred was the only one who was truly furious.
Due to his rebellion against the King, Modred wouldn't allow himself to suffer such a big loss in the hands of Altoria even after receiving the Blessing.
Although Modred was serving Altoria as a Knight of the Round Table, Modred knew very well that Altoria wasn't King Arthur anymore. She wasn't the person she hated when she was alive, so it didn't matter.
However, Altoria was different.
Even if the tables were turned, Altoria was still King Arthur.
Since she was King Arthur, Modred had to draw his sword against her.
He had to.
"I'll go find them!"
Modred stood up immediately.
Unfortunately, a voice stopped her.
"Even if you chase after them, with that human master around, you won't be able to kill the King of Darkness."
Following the voice, the Lion King walked over slowly with the holy spear in his hand.
"King!"
Gawain, Trystan, and Agwen immediately knelt down.
The Lion King walked from the Holy Capital to the battlefield unscathed.
"It seems that Holy Baptism and Holy Punishment have both failed."
Altoria said expressionlessly.
"Please punish me, King."
As the person in charge of Holy Baptism, Gawain said so.
"This is a special situation. You can't be blamed."
Altoria glanced at Gawain. That was all she said.
"Father!" Modred said in an impassioned tone, "Let me chase after them! I will definitely kill the King of Darkness! "
Obviously, Modred didn't want to give up.
Altoria didn't stop him.
"Since that's the case, Trystan, you go too." Altoria said calmly, "Also, let Lancelot return and chase with you."
With three Knights of the Round Table who had received the Blessing, there shouldn't be any chance of winning.
"Okay!"
Modred laughed wildly.
"Yes."
Trystan also lowered his head.
Only then did Altoria look in the direction where Rozen had left.
For a long time, she didn't say anything.
