Use FGO to open the second dimension

At this time, Lancelot's body had begun to collapse at an accelerated rate, and Artoria was suddenly shocked.

"Lancelot!" She stretched out her hand, trying to hold on to him, but she couldn't.

Lancelot silently turned his gaze to Artoria in front of him, with a very strong determination in his eyes.

"My king, we Knights of the Round Table have never regretted following you. For us, there has never been a more perfect king than you. Following you and fighting alongside you is something we will never forget. It is an honor we will never forget. However, you have dedicated your entire life to Britain and never thought about your own affairs. Therefore, as your knight, I sincerely hope that you can fight for yourself from now on. This is not only my wish, but also the wish of all of us at the Round Table!"

Lancelot's face was filled with sincerity and blessings.

"My king! I sincerely hope that you can find your own peace and happiness!"

Tears were streaming down Altria's face. Although she was very sad, Altria had already felt the other party's blessing.

After he finished speaking, Lancelot transformed into a photon and disappeared from Artoria's sight. However, this time, Lancelot left with a smile. He had said everything he wanted to say, and his obsession had dissipated.

If this trick were used by the current Yao Ji, it would probably really help the other party become a Buddha.

However, the one who is using this now is Youmu, and all Youmu can do is to sever the obsession of the spirit. If she really wants to help the other party become a Buddha, she is still far behind in terms of realm.

So Youmu could only kill the other party's obsession, and then Lancelot returned to normal.

The reason why frenzy can cloud the opponent's will is because the opponent has reasons to fall into frenzy. Because of self-blame, he finally falls into the abyss of madness.

It was precisely because of this that Lancelot, whose obsession was cut off, returned to normal.

Seeing this scene, Gu Quan and others breathed a sigh of relief, as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, El-Melloi II suddenly appeared in front of Koizumi and the others and spoke slowly.

"The Assassins have been dealt with. We might have missed a few, but it's not a big deal."

El-Melloi II was not wrong. Hassan the Hundred Faces' fighting ability was really not that good, and it was not enough to pose a threat to Koizumi and his group. What's more, it was actually Hassan the Serene, not the Hundred Faces, who caused Koizumi to fail.

"Well, now that the matter has been resolved! Then what's next-"

"Boy, let's go!" Before Koizumi could finish his words, Iskandar said this.

Koizumi was slightly taken aback, his gaze fixed on Iskandar, and he subconsciously called out to him.

"Hey! King of Conquerors!"

"What's wrong, kid? After defeating Archer and Berserker, do you still want to fight me?"

Iskandar looked at Koizumi with great interest and spoke slowly.

"Are you not interested in the purpose of us, the bystanders, intervening in this Holy Grail War?"

Koizumi spoke slowly, a hint of doubt flickering in his eyes.

"Well, I'm indeed very interested, but if you intend to cooperate, then please allow me to refuse!"

Iskandar, however, directly expressed his refusal.

"What! Why?" El-Melloi II couldn't help but asked.

"Yeah? Why don't you listen to their purpose and then decide whether to cooperate or not?"

Even Waver, who had always disliked El-Melloi II, couldn't help but ask this question.

If Koizumi and the others didn't want the Holy Grail, then there was no harm in cooperating. Why just reject them without even asking? Waver couldn't understand this.

Chapter 496: El-Melloi II is Devastated

Iskandar sighed slightly, then spoke slowly.

"This isn't about deciding who to cooperate with, it's about choosing who to fight. The King of Heroes, whom I thought was my true rival, ended up with the same fate. I'm tired of thinking about what to do next."

Hearing this, Koizumi's brows furrowed slightly. According to Iskandar, was he planning to become his enemy? If so, then this would be extremely troublesome.

After just fighting Gilgamesh and Lancelot, Youmeng and Diarmuid were already exhausted.

Besides, there is also an Altria here. If the other party becomes alert, wouldn’t it be a direct quarrel?

The more important point is that according to the original plan, I should have had a good talk with the other party, so how could it turn out like this!

"So, we're going to fight them next?" Waver couldn't help but glance at Koizumi.

After all, he was still a little afraid of Koizumi and his gang, especially Koizumi.

After all, these are all Servants, so it's normal for them to be able to do this, but Koizumi is the Master!

A Master can kill a Servant. This is simply like a fairy tale and is really shocking.

Therefore, Waver still had some lingering fears about Koizumi. The terrifying-looking Gilgamesh had just been stabbed to death by Koizumi. He was really worried that the other party would kill Iskandar with a similar shot.

"No, no, that's not right. It's the military advisor with a deep frown on his face who looks very annoyed. He's the enemy."

As he said this, Iskandar fixed his gaze on El-Melloi II, a meaningful look on his face.

"Ah!" El-Melloi II was immediately surprised and at the same time greatly shocked.

Of course, being identified as an enemy by one's own king is something that should be dealt with no matter how you look at it.

"...Why did it come to this? We should have nothing to do with each other in terms of interests!"

El-Melloi II couldn't help but speak quickly, his tone starting to sound a little strange.

"Well, indeed not." Iskandar nodded, but did not deny it.

"I've been very careful to avoid conflict with you! But why is it still like this?!"

El-Melloi II couldn't help but feel speechless, thinking in his heart that there was obviously nothing wrong with the plan.

"I just don't like you. That's it."

Well, Iskandar’s words were like a fatal blow, piercing El-Melloi II’s heart directly.

Suddenly, tears welled up in the corners of El-Melloi II's eyes. Oh my god, how can you be so shameless!

Koizumi couldn't help but hold his hand to his forehead. Now he could see that Waver looked a little aggrieved.

If this guy still can't see Weber's shadow, then these eyes are really useless.

"FuFu!" FuFu jumped onto El-Melloi II's shoulder, as if to comfort him.

Ritsuka and Mashu couldn't help but smile bitterly. They didn't know what to say.

"Why!? At this crucial moment, are you acting for such a ridiculous reason?!"

Waver couldn't help but feel speechless. He had no idea how the King of Conquerors operated.

But this is true. After all, he was Alexander the Great, who once conquered territories beyond the imagination of ordinary people. It would be terrible if his way of doing things could be so easily figured out.

Sometimes he is reckless, and sometimes he is well thought out, like a two-faced person, which makes it really hard to understand.

"I'm baffled. Speaking of which, the very existence of this military advisor is completely baffling. This strange Servant, neither human nor Heroic Spirit, coupled with his eerily accurate predictions that don't even seem like predictions... It's clear that these guys are operating outside the rules of this war. And they're actively trying to interfere with our battle. One thing is certain... these people are here to hinder our Holy Grail War. While I don't know your motives, I'm also a Heroic Spirit summoned for the Holy Grail. Aren't those who seek to disrupt the very rules of victory and defeat a worse obstacle than our enemies?"

Although Iskandar's tone was very calm, his eyes were very sharp.

One has to admit that this one sentence from the other party was worth a thousand words, and it directly shut up what Gu Quan and the others were saying.

"..." At this moment, even the eloquent El-Melloi II was speechless.

"So, Saber, Lancer, you who are in the same camp as that guy are now my enemies too." As he said this, Iskandar smiled and spoke slowly.

"What should we do? Master! Are we going to repel Rider next?" Diarmuid couldn't help but ask.

Although Youmu didn't say anything, the cold light flashing from her two swords proved her position.

"...No, we can't fight. Have you forgotten our original purpose? We can only defeat up to four Servants! Caster, Berserker, and Archer are gone, and most of the Assassin group has been eliminated. We can't become an enemy of Rider at this time!" El-Melloi II said hurriedly.

Koizumi couldn't help but nod silently. Indeed, three Servants had been eliminated, and Assassin was basically eliminated, so there were only four in total, and the battle could not continue.

And most importantly, the consumption of the ancient spring is already very high now. Once the real [Gungnir] is released, it will consume most of the ancient spring's magic power. It can be said that the consumption of the ancient spring is second only to the consumption brought to the ancient spring by [Realm of Life and Death].

In addition, Youmu and Diarmuid have been fighting for a long time and can no longer fight, otherwise they will be at a disadvantage. Even with Mashu's support, there will probably be big problems.

Huh? You mean Chelsea? Does she have the guts to fight head-on? A sneak attack on Iskandar! Are you sure you can pull it off? Forget it! You might get chopped in half by Iskandar!

Knowing this perfectly well, Koizumi could only helplessly give a wry smile.

"You win this round, King of Conquerors! Leave now! I have no more tricks!"

"Very good, very good. Only enemies with smart brains are easy to understand, that's good. Then let's wait until we both recover to our best condition before we fight it out! Farewell!"

Saying so, Iskandar left with his Master, accompanied by the roar of thunder and lightning.

After watching Iskandar leave, Koizumi glanced at the wary Irisviel and the complicated Altria before sighing softly and speaking slowly.

"Let's have a good talk now! Don't worry! We have no intention of becoming your enemy!"

Just as Koizumi said this helplessly, trying to explain things slowly to Irisviel—

"Bang bang bang...!"

A discordant voice suddenly rang out, startling Koizumi and the others!

Chapter 497: The Mysterious Assassin's Attack! Irisviel's Anxiety!

I have to admit that the mysterious Assassin chose the right time. Iskandar had just left and all the battles were over. This was undoubtedly the time when everyone was most relaxed. Even Artoria was completely relaxed. She felt a little sad about Lancelot's departure and was not alert to her surroundings at all.

Not to mention El-Melloi II, who was already very anxious about the King of Conquerors and was still thinking about how to solve the problem of Iskandar. Ritsuka, Mashu and others also needed to take care of Sakura and the unconscious Matou Kariya.

Youmu and Diarmuid also breathed a sigh of relief and put away their weapons.

Just at this moment - the attack begins!

Assassin was very agile, and his bullets were aimed at everyone present, seemingly to prevent others from interfering with him, but the only fatal blow was undoubtedly aimed at Irisviel.

"Ellie!" Artoria blocked the attack coming towards her and quickly looked at Irisviel.

However, there was a figure faster than her. Koizumi appeared as if transformed into a scarlet aurora and arrived in front of Irisviel. Koizumi was confident that his perfect vitality after becoming a vampire could definitely ignore this attack.

But—the moment he was hit, Koizumi's expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, his face filled with shock and disbelief.

The mysterious Assassin's attack wasn't very powerful, but the moment it struck Koizumi, he felt a massive surge of damage to his own magic power. While it clearly didn't cause any harm to his own body, it had a terrifying destructive effect on his magic circuits. Having already consumed a significant amount of Koizumi's own energy, he felt as if his wounds were being fueled, suffering a significant degree of damage. Furthermore—

The old illness that had accumulated in Koizumi's body suddenly broke out. Although he didn't know why the old illness accumulated in the dream world was transferred to the real world, Koizumi knew one thing: he was feeling really uncomfortable now!

Some blood sprayed onto Irisviel's snow-white, luxurious coat, and even her pretty face was stained with Koizumi's blood. The warm touch spreading across her face made her forget the appearance of the mysterious Assassin for a moment, and she stood there in a daze.

Irisviel was stunned, but the mysterious Assassin wouldn't just stand there like that. Although he was surprised that Koizumi only spat out a mouthful of blood in pain, since the first strike didn't work, he decided to strike again.

What's more, his target is Irisviel, and it's impossible for Irisviel to have that kind of defense.

Thinking of this, the mysterious Assassin didn't waste any more time and raised the Western-style pistol in his hand without hesitation. The black muzzle of the gun instantly locked onto Irisviel's head, who was protected in Koizumi's arms.

"Master! You bastard!" Seeing the blood spurting out of Koizumi, Konpaku Youmu's pupils suddenly shrank.

A strong murderous intent spread out, and in just a moment he rushed in front of the opponent and slashed at him.

"After that kind of battle! How can you still unleash such fighting power?"

The mysterious Assassin couldn't help but reveal a look of surprise, as he had been observing all of this.

It is truly surprising that Konpaku Youmu can still unleash such strength after experiencing two battles.

"Damn it! Assassin!" Diarmuid was also furious and stabbed the opponent with both guns without hesitation.

Huh? You're calling this a gang fight? Unchivalrous? What's the point of chivalry when dealing with a sneak attack from a despicable person? This mysterious Assassin has incurred public wrath!

"Koizumi-senpai (Koizumi, big brother)!" Mashu, Ritsuka, and Tousaka Sakura all showed worry and ran towards Koizumi. Even El-Melloi II frowned.

"Ellie! Are you okay?" Altria looked at Irisviel in front of her with a worried look on her face.

Irisviel shook her head slightly, then looked with a complicated and worried expression at Koizumi, who had fainted at some point. Even though he was unconscious, he was still protecting her. This—

"Assassin!" Since the other party is fine, it is time for Altria to take revenge.

He actually dared to launch a surprise attack on Ellie, and Koizumi even let Lancelot and I finish what we needed to say. This alone is enough for Artoria to be grateful for. Now that Koizumi was injured for Irisviel, it would be inconsistent with Artoria's own way of doing things if she didn't avenge him.

She has always been a person who repays kindness! There is no doubt about that!

"He actually took advantage of our moment of relaxation to sneak in. He's really someone you can't underestimate!"

A solemn look appeared on El-Melloi II's face, and he slowly came to Mash and the others.

"Is Koizumi okay? The attack just now—" El-Melloi II looked at Koizumi with a worried look on his face.

"How could this be! My healing magic is completely ineffective! Why is it useless?!"

Irisviel wanted to treat Koizumi's wound, but found that her treatment was completely useless. Suddenly, a look of anxiety appeared on her face.

"He damaged the magic circuit! Could the bullet just now have been an origin bullet?"

El-Melloi II's face suddenly showed deep shock. Could it be that this Assassin was?

But now is not the time to think about these things. Koizumi damaged his magic circuits. Even if the damage is minor, it will cause serious problems in his future magic. If it is serious, this magus will be completely useless.
