At the junction of the Holy Land and the Mountain Area, a fortress is located here like a fortress, exuding a cold atmosphere.
Heavily armed soldiers are stationed here. Some are guarding the gate, some are patrolling around, and some are standing guard on the city wall. The security is extremely tight.
Under such tight security, any slight disturbance would be discovered by the soldiers on the watchtower immediately.
However, there are some things that no one will care about even if they are discovered.
For example, a flock of birds soaring through the sky.
I saw several flying birds flapping their wings in mid-air, even hovering over the castle.
The soldiers only thought that they were ordinary birds, but they did not know that they had now become the eyes of their masters.
Behind a hill in the mountainous area, a team of soldiers was hiding here, quietly, without making even a single sound, and even held their breath, waiting for the reconnaissance of a young man.
The young man was now squatting on the ground, surrounded by soldiers and guarded by two servants. He closed his eyes and shared his five senses with the birds flying over the fortress.
Soon after, Luo Zhen opened his eyes.
"no problem."
Luo Zhen said this at the beginning.
"Although the security is tight, the people remaining in the fortress are ordinary soldiers. No trace of the solemn knight was found, let alone the trace of the Round Table."
Luo Zhen confirmed this.
Then, the report from Chaldea came.
"What appears on the surface are all ordinary life reactions. However, there is an underground space in the fortress. It is very vast. A lot of magic reactions have been detected from there. It should not be the reactions of the solemn knights, but the reactions of some monsters. .”
Roman's voice came from the communicator worn on Luo Zhen's wrist.
"Those monsters should have been raised by the Holy Land Knights, or they might have been monsters that originally lived there. The fortress was built directly on the land with magical properties, and the underground space was also built directly using the nests of monsters that already existed. The prison cell perfectly uses monsters as defensive force, it’s really a skill.”
Da Vinci admired.
"No wonder there are only ordinary soldiers stationed here, not even a solemn knight. Is there such a garrison?"
Olga Marie suddenly realized.
"In other words, it is not difficult to attack the fortress, but it is not that easy to attack the underground cell, right?"
Matthew's face was full of seriousness.
There are only ordinary soldiers on the surface. It is not difficult to attack them with the strength here.
But in the underground cell with limited space, not only are there monsters there, but also because of the environment, you can't act too recklessly, otherwise you will definitely be buried alive.
Therefore, first of all, Altria's (Alter) Noble Phantasm cannot be used, and even slightly stronger magic power cannot be released. Otherwise, with the assistance of the "Magic Release" skill, it will still cause damage to the underground cell. If he wasn't careful, he would end up being buried alive again.
In other words, once you get there, you won't be able to use too much power. Even with the abilities of Luo Zhen and others, they will never die if they are buried alive, but the prisoners imprisoned inside are not clear.
"Can you detect the servant's reaction? Brother?"
Luo Zhen asked Roman questions.
Roman's answer followed immediately.
"Yes." Roman said seriously: "The reaction from the servants has been detected in the underground cell. There is not just one, but two reactions from the servants fed back."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was startled.
"The reaction of the two servants?"
Matthew's face tensed.
"In other words, is there still a servant stationed underground in the fortress?"
Arturia (Alter) frowned.
Luo Zhen reacted after being startled.
"No, based on the information we have learned, combined with the information you have been fighting for half a year, we can know that all the servants in the Holy City should be Knights of the Round Table."
Luo Zhen retorted.
"And if the Knights of the Round Table arrive, they will definitely be accompanied by the troops of the Solemn Knights. However, I used my familiar to investigate and found no Solemn Knights. Even the number of horses in the stables did not show signs of being too many, which proves that there are not too many horses in the stables. It’s not that the Round Table has arrived.”
Unless the knights of the Holy City came here on foot and all entered the underground cells.
However, moving on this land without horses would be too time-consuming and labor-intensive. Luo Zhen did not think that the Holy City would march in this way.
but...
"If he is not a Knight of the Round Table, then who is this servant's reaction?"
Matthew was surprised.
On the contrary, Artoria successfully understood what Luo Zhen meant.
"Are there other servants like Hassan who were captured by the Holy Land Knights?"
Artoria's words lifted everyone's spirits.
if it is like this...
"Then if we rescue each other, won't we be able to gain the fighting power of an additional cavalry servant?"
Olga Marie told the current situation with a tone full of surprise.
"Moreover, the other party must be a servant of great value or extremely difficult to deal with. Otherwise, the Holy Land Knights would not want to imprison the other party, but would directly attack him."
Da Vinci realized this.
The only problem is that we don’t know what kind of Servant the other party is.
Artoria [Alter] also said before that, except for the servants belonging to the three major forces, all neutral servants have been regarded as threats by the Knights of the Round Table and eliminated.
And the Servants who can survive until now must be special, right
"It seems that the harvest this time will be greater than expected."
Artoria [Alter] decided on the spot.
"Now let's attack."
After confirming the situation over there, there is no need to be afraid here.
"senior."
Ma Xiu looked at Luo Zhen.
Luo Zhen shrugged and smiled suddenly.
"Then let's get started."
As he spoke, Luo Zhen slowly pressed his hand on the ground, and his magic power surged.
The next moment, a magic circle expanded.
... ... ... ...
"Um?"
At the same time, some soldiers were the first to notice strange movements on the watchtowers and walls of the Round Table Fortress.
"Roar... "
"Roar... "
This is a faint roar, like a dragon's roar.
"Rumble..."
This is the tremor of the ground, like thousands of troops galloping.
"There's a situation!"
The soldiers noticed this immediately.
It didn't take long for many people to see it.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Amidst roaring roars, giant dragons flew over in groups like ferocious beast gods.
"Boom!"
On the other side of the horizon, amid a tremor, under the billowing smoke, there were demon statues of different sizes charging, shaking the ground with their heavy feet, and rushing towards this side.
Seeing such a scene, the soldiers widened their eyes and trembled all over.
Soon...
"Enemy... enemy attack...!"
As a mournful cry rang out, the entire fortress was reduced to a battlefield, complete chaos.
