In this way, the first day of the official establishment of the mountain city passed smoothly amidst laughter and laughter.
On this day, many mountain people stayed up all night, playing and playing until it was almost dawn before lying down to rest.
However, there are also many people who did not have a complete party, but went to rest sensibly.
These people are the soldiers of the mountain people.
Artoria [Alter] had already given the order that the Round Table Fortress would be attacked the next day. The ordinary people would not care about it for the time being. The soldiers must all rest and recharge their batteries to prepare for the expedition the next day. Only those responsible for staying in the mountain city were responsible. The troops here can alternately stand guard, but they are also not allowed to revel, but must patrol and keep vigil.
The soldiers didn't have any complaints. Anyway, after the mountain city was formed, they also had a party with the people, and they were all full of wine and food. This was very satisfying for them, and also Continue working without any complaints.
After all, in order to fight against the Holy City, the soldiers must not go hungry. Before this, the people saved a lot of food and left it for the soldiers to eat. Only then could the soldiers have the strength to fight. Therefore, many soldiers were extremely cruel to ordinary people. They are very grateful now that they can see the people eating, drinking and partying to their heart's content. They continue to protect them silently. This is their obligation and what they are willing to do.
Therefore, although the establishment of the mountain city brought many surprises and transformations, it still operated in an orderly manner, and no problems arose due to this.
The next day, when the people who had thoroughly reveled were all going to rest, many soldiers who had rested all night, refreshed themselves, and had enough to eat lined up in the central square.
The number of soldiers was not very large. It was estimated that there were only about a thousand people in front and behind.
The current number of soldiers in the Mountain City is about three thousand, and the remaining thousands are scattered in various villages in the mountain area. Only one-third of the troops in the Mountain City are dispatched now.
In Artoria's words, this is enough.
"When it comes to a servant battle, ordinary warriors are basically useless. This time, your familiar group is dispatched again. There is no need to dispatch a lot of troops here. If everything goes well, a few hundred people will actually be enough."
Artoria [Alter] said so.
According to him, this battle mainly relied on Luo Zhen's familiars. The role of the soldiers was to thoroughly search and transport the materials in the fortress. They could also recruit the people in the fortress and be responsible for escorting people and materials.
As for the troops in the mountain city, they were led by Bedivere who also stayed behind.
Now, everyone gathered in the central square.
Luo Zhen yawned and looked at Mashu next to him, unable to help but make a sound.
"Are you okay? Matthew?"
Don't blame Luo Zhen for asking.
If you look carefully, you can see that although Ma Xiu stands tall and straight, there is a strong look of tiredness in his eyes and his face is a little ugly.
This is the result of a whole night of training by Artoria [Alter].
"I...I'm fine..."
Ma Xiu said this a little stubbornly, but the tiredness in his eyes could not be eliminated no matter what.
"Okay, give me your hand."
Luo Zhen only found it a bit funny. After holding Masu's hand, he drew a rune on his palm.
As a result, vitality and vitality that were enough to relieve fatigue poured into Mathu's body, making Mathu feel warm all over, and her energy and complexion became much better.
"Thank you, senior."
Ma Xiu then smiled gratefully at Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen didn't take it seriously, but raised his head and looked forward.
There, Arturia (Alter) walked slowly, accompanied by Bedivere.
"Are you ready?" Artoria (Alter) said resolutely: "If you are ready, then get ready to go."
Hearing this, before Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu could answer, Chaldea's communication came.
"The most suitable route has been planned for you."
Roman's voice sounded.
"Following this route, if there is no accident, you will not encounter any enemies, and you can also avoid the loss of physical strength to a certain extent."
Da Vinci said the same thing.
"It's a pity that the distance is too far and there is no way to scan the situation of the Round Table Fortress. Otherwise, we can judge whether there are followers there and what the strength of the troops is."
Olga Marie's voice was tight.
"In that case, don't waste time and set off directly."
Artoria [Alter] followed a simple and rough style and expressed it like this.
Only at this time did Bedivere speak out.
"I wish you all a safe and successful triumph."
Bedivere solemnly performed a knighthood.
"Leave it to us, Mr. Bedivere."
Matthew also solemnly assured Bedivere.
Obviously, Matthew still has a good impression of this senior person from the Round Table.
"Set off!"
Artoria [Alter] then directly ordered everyone to leave the mountain city and march towards the Round Table Fortress.
Bedivere kept watching everyone and didn't leave for a long time.
That figure, for some reason, looked a little lonely and desolate.
Matthew looked back and said this with some pity.
"It would be great if Mr. Bedivere is willing to conclude a temporary contract with the senior. In that case, Mr. Bedivere's strength will increase, and the king will not neglect him."
From Matthew's point of view, Artoria (Alter) seemed rather cold towards Bedivere.
That coldness was not shown even to Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu. It was as if he wanted to draw a clear line with Bedivere, which made people feel a little pitiful for the loyal Bedivere.
And Matthew thought that Altria (Alter) ignored Bedivere so much mainly because Bedivere was relatively weak.
For this reason, Matthew once suggested to Bedivere that he and Luo Zhen conclude a temporary contract. By then, Bedivere's spiritual power will be improved, and it will be possible to become a top servant.
But Bedivere solemnly refused after showing a bitter expression.
That's what I said.
"A knight like me is not qualified to enter into a contract with the Master."
Matthew couldn't understand Bedivere's approach.
On the contrary, Luo Zhen neither persuaded nor agreed, but remained silent.
Therefore, while Mashu has awakened as a special A-level servant and Alteria has become more powerful than ever, only Bedivere still remains without a contract.
Luo Zhen smiled and touched Ma Xiu's head.
"Bedivere must have his own reasons for doing this. Don't underestimate Artoria [Alter] too much. Even if it's reversed, she's not the kind of person who would judge a person's worth based on their strength. existence, she has already said that Bedivere cannot go to the battlefield yet. He is our ace, so that must be the case. So, don’t think that Arturia [Alter] ignored Bedivere, she must have the same Have your own reasons."
Luo Zhen said this, making Ma Xiu fall into deep thought, and then nodded.
The two of them followed the large army and left together with Altoria (Alter) who was walking at the front without looking back.
Target, Round Table Fortress.
