The gun roared.
Yes, you read that correctly—the gun went off!
This spear certainly does not refer to Altria's Holy Spear. Although this Holy Spear, which has the same extraordinary origin as the Holy Sword, can also make a roar, it requires the True Name Release of the Noble Phantasm. It is just to penetrate Mordred, not to blow Mordred and the wall behind him into pieces. There is no need to go to such great lengths.
The roar came from another gun, a horizontal double-barreled sawn-off shotgun - from the name you can tell that this is a modified product of modern weapons, a real weapon, and its owner is none other than Mordred's master, the Lion Jiejieli.
When Mordred was chasing Jack, Lion Jie was actually chasing him too, but his movements were much slower than Mordred's. Moreover, when he found that there was no barrier to repel people nearby, he had to set up a barrier first to ensure the concealment of the magic. As a result, Mordred's opponent had changed, and he had not arrived yet.
When he arrived, Mordred had already been pinned against the city wall.
As a mercenary who was active in various battlefields and collected corpses, Shizijie had rich combat experience. The more crisis he encountered, the calmer he was. Even if his servant was restrained by the opponent, he did not rush out to save him, but calmly analyzed the situation.
The timing was not right. If he rushed out to save Mordred, he would not only fail to save him, but also get himself in trouble. Using the Command Spell to force a transfer would not work either. The two were too close, and the Black Lancer's movements would be faster than the transfer. To save someone, he had to wait for the moment when the enemy made a move.
Lion Jie used the skills he had honed on the battlefield, suppressing his aura and presence to the minimum, and approached cautiously, approaching the best position where his weapons could exert their power.
He knew that he could kill the Servant with the weapons at hand, but it was impossible to kill a first-class Servant like Mordred, not to mention that the enemy was stronger than Mordred. He just wanted to cause some trouble to the Black Lancer and buy Mordred a chance to escape. According to his understanding of Mordred, as long as there was a gap of one second, not half a second, Mordred could escape and regroup.
The lurking process went smoothly. The two servants, who were facing each other closely, focused their attention on each other and did not notice a rat approaching quietly.
But after getting close, Lion Jie felt a little dazed.
The situation developed pretty much as he expected. The Black Lancer prepared to kill someone, and for this purpose he materialized a lance whose terrifying magical power could be sensed from thirty meters away. For some reason, he felt that the lance looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
But Mordred's behavior was completely beyond Lion's expectations—she actually closed her eyes and waited for death
Is this the Mordred he knew? The rebellious knight he knew would never give up, no matter what dangers she encountered. Not to mention that the sword was still in her hand, even if she lost the sword, even if she died, she would bite off a piece of the enemy's flesh.
What is going on
Damn, I couldn’t hear what they were saying at all at a distance of thirty meters.
However, now that it has come to this, I cannot let Mordred die no matter what - even though I have only known her for a few days, she is a partner recognized by me, Lion Jie Li.
"Devour it!"
The chant that was covered by the gunshot activated the magic mechanism on the gun body, and also activated the Gandr attached to the bullet! The finger that was treated as a bullet roared out of the barrel and shot straight into the back of Artoria.
As the Black Lancer, Artoria has a job skill - Magic Resistance, Rank B, and Gandr's Curse Bullet is naturally not able to break through the defense of this skill. However, the Curse Bullet fired by Lion Jie is not only a magic attack, but also has reached the speed of sound after being processed by necromancy. The energy contained in it is enough to hurt the Servant - provided that it hits the target.
The moment the gunshot rang out, Artoria swung the holy spear reflexively, deflecting the curse bullet, and her sharp eyes quickly locked onto the position of Lion Jie.
"Mordred's Master?"
This result was not surprising to Shizijie, and he did not intend to rely solely on curse bullets to complete the task. After two bullets, the "heart grenade" with the pull ring pulled out beforehand drew a parabola and exploded above Altria's head. The magician's teeth and nails hidden in it could not break through Altria's armor, and the diffuse purple poisonous fog could not break through the "anti-magic power" protection. For Altria, this grenade was just a small firework.
What Lion Jie wanted was the effect of fireworks. Taking advantage of the brief moment when Altria's vision was blocked, the man with a fierce aura rolled over and changed positions while roaring loudly.
"Saber, stop being in a daze and move!"
While yelling, he did not forget to continue loading his "finger bullets" and create trouble for Altria through long-range attacks.
A figure broke through the poisonous fog, but it was not Mordred that Lion Jie was expecting, but Altria. The female knight wearing silver heavy armor and holding a shining lance charged towards Lion Jie's hiding place. According to her speed, a distance of 30 meters could be covered in a few blinks of an eye.
"Saber, what are you doing?"
Lion Jie felt like he was going crazy. If it weren't for the fact that the poisonous mist of the Holy Lance could not conceal it, and if there was no abnormality in the master-servant contract, he would have even thought that Mordred had been killed by the Black Lancer.
"Well, there's nothing I can do."
Shizi Jie activated the strengthening magic that every combat magician knows, strengthened his leg strength, and jumped onto the roof. While jumping, he pulled open his sleeves, and the first of the three command spells lit up with a bewitching light.
"I hereby order my swordsman with the Command Seal to return to my side immediately!"
Space distortion, a miracle granted by the Holy Grail that can reach the realm of magic, was activated.
The petite swordsman appeared as if breaking through the ripples in space, standing between Lion Jie and the approaching Altria.
"Idiot! Stop standing there and fight!"
The voice of Lion Jie finally reached Mordred's ears, and she instinctively swung the sword in her hand to block the holy spear that was sweeping towards her.
"Master, why are you here?"
"Idiot, if I don't come, am I going to watch you die?"
With Mordred stopping the Black Lancer, Lion Jie finally had the chance to breathe a sigh of relief.
"What on earth are you doing? Giving up the fight? Have you forgotten your wish? You are going to be the King of Britain! My Lord!"
"I... King..." Mordred was distracted for a moment, and this distraction gave Artoria an opportunity to shoot him and send him flying.
"Really!" Lion Jie Meng gritted his teeth and something appeared in his hand.
PS: Mordred actually has a bit of a mad dog personality, she hates losing more than she hates dying, but who can blame her dear dad for standing on the other side? She gave up after a series of blows.
