Use FGO to open the second dimension

In an instant, Koizumi was caught in a battle that was extremely close to his death!

Chapter 549: Unpredictable Sword

It is impossible to predict the opponent's attack direction. It feels as if the opponent itself is a sharp sword.

The opponent was clearly holding back. Koizumi could see this, having previously taken a blow from him, the destructive power of which was undoubtedly terrifying! After all, his own Gungnir was blocking him, yet it was still pierced by the opponent's sword, leaving a hideous bloody mark.

Koizumi believed that the opponent could replicate that strike, but now, the opponent seemed to have become an ordinary swordsman. Every strike became an attack that Koizumi could withstand, but—

No matter how he analyzed and predicted, Koizumi was unable to grasp the opponent's attack direction. Every time, he narrowly avoided the opponent's attack, and only when the opponent swung his sword close to him could Koizumi detect the direction of the attack.

No matter which enemy he faced, even Esdeath, Koizumi could vaguely predict some of their attacks, but at this moment, his intuition seemed to have completely failed, and was of no use.

What on earth was going on? Koizumi frowned slightly, his Gungnir in hand frantically responding to the opponent's attack! That's right, he was quite panicked. If he didn't have some strength, he would have been in big trouble!

Arthur swung his sword casually each time, as if he didn't care about Koizumi at all.

In fact, it is true. He always has a smile on his face, and this smile is so unpleasant!

This is so abominable! It's like he's playing a trick on me! I really want to stab him to death!

If only he hadn't been able to defeat him! Otherwise, Koizumi would have already stabbed him multiple times with Gungnir!

"If you had to think so much every time you swung your gun, you'd probably be bald long ago! It's better to swing more often than not, instead of worrying about this and that! For a warrior, any fancy attack is useless! The only thing you need is the shot that can hurt the opponent! So instead of analyzing so much, why not turn passivity into initiative!"

Arthur slowly swung his sword while casually speaking to Koizumi.

"Put aside all the fancy attacks. Only those that can hurt your opponent are needed! That's all there is to fighting! And you're making so many useless attacks here, which will only put you in a downward spiral step by step! What's more, if you don't attack and only defend here, defeat is undoubtedly inevitable!"

As he spoke, Arthur's attacks put more and more pressure on Koizumi. Although the vampire's self-healing ability healed the hideous scars on Koizumi's body, the longer the battle went on, the greater the pressure on Koizumi's body. After all, Koizumi was wielding a power beyond his own capabilities!

Koizumi took a deep breath, and the crimson aurora instantly enveloped Arthur before him.

In response, Arthur just smiled slightly, and gently swung the golden sword in his right hand. Under a dazzling golden sword light, the scarlet aurora completely dissipated in an instant, and rushed towards him without stopping.

Koizumi was startled, and Gungnir swung rapidly in panic, but still failed to block it.

Blood splattered, and a long bloody mark suddenly appeared on Guquan's right arm.

"As a Master, being able to achieve this level is already admirable. Will all Masters of later generations have the same level of combat power as you? That would be a truly admirable era... But I think it's unlikely..."

Arthur murmured this praise slowly, his eyes fixed on Koizumi.

Suddenly, the whole world turned into a grayish-white world, and time completely stopped at that moment.

In the blink of an eye, countless knives wrapped in magic power completely surrounded Arthur in front of him.

The next moment, time quickly returned to its original speed. All the knives were launched at Arthur at an extremely fast speed. The extremely thick smoke and dust rolled up at the moment of the knife bombardment. Whether they hit or not was not certain. After all, with Arthur's own skills, it was unlikely that he would suffer too much damage.

It is even possible that Arthur was not injured at all!

Sakuya slowly appeared beside Koizumi, a look of worry on her face.

"Master, are you okay?" Sakuya asked, glancing at Koizumi's slowly recovering right arm.

"Don't worry about that! What we should be worried about is this inexplicable Saber... This guy won't be killed so easily! It might even be impossible to hurt him!"

Koizumi said this slowly, his eyes fixed on the thick smoke and dust before him.

A huge golden light flashed by, and as this light flashed, the smoke and dust were instantly swept away!

Arthur slowly appeared, without a single scar on his body, but the ground around him was full of knives.

Did all these knives miss the target? Sakuya, did all your luck go wrong?

The corners of Gu Quan's mouth twitched fiercely, and an extremely speechless look flickered in his eyes.

"Did almost all of them bounce off?" Sakuya's eyes flashed with shock, and what she said made Koizumi's mouth twitch violently. Did this guy bounce off all the knives?

But this is normal. The damage of Sakuya's knife is not very high. The strong point is that Sakuya uses the power of manipulating time to launch attacks, so she has the job classification of Assassin. The damage is not high, but her strength lies in the surprise attack!

Just like the last time with the user of the inhibitory force, Koizumi's strength was superior to his opponent's, but he was still injured by his sneak attack.

"It seems that it will be difficult to repel the enemy..."

Koizumi couldn't help but chuckle, holding Gungnir on his shoulders and sighing slightly.

"You don't think an Assassin alone can kill me, do you? Even the gods can't make me retreat! You think you can kill me with just an Assassin's knife? Master! Are you overthinking it?" An extremely violent aura erupted from Arthur's body, causing Koizumi's heart to palpitate.

Is this the aura King Arthur should have? Honestly, I still prefer Altria to this guy! And Koizumi also recognizes Altria's identity as King Arthur more.

As for the one in front of me, forget it! This kind of battle-crazed aura doesn't belong to him!

Chapter 550 What kind of monster are you?

Koizumi, Sakuya, and Arthur just stared at each other in silence, not saying a word.

Around them, shouts and cries of killing resounded through the sky, but no one came to disturb them.

After all, whether it's Koizumi, Sakuya's side, or Arthur's side, they are almost all monster-level guys.

Faced with monsters like this, no one with a normal brain would choose to be their enemy.

Neither side made a move or spoke a word, but an extremely terrifying atmosphere permeated the surroundings of both sides.

It seemed as if a terrifying battle would break out between the two sides at any time! It was really frightening!

After a while, one of the two groups who had remained silent suddenly spoke - it was Koizumi and Sakuya who spoke first!

"You bastard! Are you really King Arthur? Whether it's your words or your swordsmanship, these are not the King Arthur I know! I don't see the slightest bit of chivalry in you! I might even believe you if you said you were King Arthur's illegitimate son! But you said you were King Arthur! Are you sure you're not kidding me?"

Koizumi frowned slightly, staring at Arthur before him, and spoke slowly.

Koizumi was indeed right; he had never seen the qualities that a knight should possess in the other party.

You could even say this guy is a battle maniac! And he's a battle maniac who loves to criticize his opponent's fighting style! And his opponent's fighting style doesn't even resemble what a Knight King should do!

Koizumi had seen the swordsmanship of the Knight King before. Even if it was King Arthur from a parallel world, the source of their swordsmanship should be the same, modified from ordinary knight swordsmanship. But this guy's swordsmanship...

That couldn't even be considered swordsmanship! It was as if the opponent had fused their sword and self into one! Logically, this should have reached a state of mastery, but in combat, it seemed so crude and crude, so primitive! It gave people a strangely contradictory feeling!

It gives people an extremely contradictory feeling, as if it is both a man and a sword, both a beast and a rationalist!

Sakuya was silently wary of Arthur in front of her. She was just a servant and all she needed to do was protect Koizumi!

So Sakuya only needs to stay by Koizumi's side, protecting him well while being alert to the enemies in front of her!

Hearing this, Arthur just smiled faintly, glanced at Koizumi in front of him, and spoke slowly.

"Does it matter whether it's true or not? All you need to know is that I'm your enemy now, right? Besides, that strike just now almost sent your friend straight to Hades. Don't you want revenge?"

Arthur said this, looking at Koizumi with great interest, waving the golden sword in his hand.

It seems like he wanted to say that he used this golden sword to seriously injure Patchouli...

I have to admit, this guy is right on this point. If nothing else, just the fact that he severely injured Patchouli with that single blow of his sword warrants revenge! He hurt his family! He must retaliate no matter what! That's Koizumi's principle! Otherwise, Koizumi will be deeply upset!

"You're right! Regardless of whether you're King Arthur or not, you're my enemy now! No matter what, I'll find a way to avenge that sword you struck Patchouli with! So remember this, you imposter!"

Hearing the word "fake", Arthur chuckled, but a strange look appeared on his face.

"This is the first time I've been called a fake... It's such a strange feeling! But—"

Having said that, Arthur turned his gaze towards Koizumi, a gleam of brilliance glittering in his eyes.

"Since you've said that, it would be unreasonable for me not to play with you properly!"

Anyway, all I have to do now is deplete Rome's fighting power! I just need to hold Chaldea back! This Koizumi alone can't handle me, so I'll need to join forces with other Servants! So basically, I can only hold back the entire Chaldea Servants by myself!

Didn't he notice that he had held back this person called Izayoi Sakuya and Koizumi, and he was doing it so easily?

The remaining Youyouko (Journey to the West) is fighting with Boudica, and Patchouli has been seriously injured by herself!

The last Shielder has average combat power, just like an ordinary servant. His Noble Phantasm is very good, but it is only outstanding in defense, perhaps better than Boudica, but in terms of comprehensive combat power, it is really average!

So basically, you don't have to worry about that Shielder, just focus on Koizumi and the others!

In an instant, a cold breath emanated from Arthur's body... Yes, it was a cold breath...

It wasn't the coldness that humans should possess... but rather a coldness as if it were dead... not human...

The moment his eyes fell on Gu Quan, he could feel as if he was being stabbed by a sword!

The opponent was like a sword. The moment he looked at him, it was like the sword was unsheathed. In just that moment of being unsheathed, the sword energy overflowed, scratching Gu Quan's skin painfully... This was the gap between him and the opponent!

In an instant, Koizumi's muscles tensed up, and the magic power in his body began to circulate crazily.

The next moment, as if sensing the changes in Koizumi's body, the icy aura on Arthur's body vanished completely in an instant, returning to the feeling he had during the battle. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he slowly spoke.

"Not bad, kid. You subconsciously tense up at my changes... You have the foundation and instincts of a warrior. With proper training, you might become a rare warrior, even among the Age of Gods! But if you don't address your old ailment, this might be the end of it!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Quan's pupils suddenly shrank. This guy actually noticed his old illness!

Even Sakuya was slightly surprised. Was it possible that she could detect Koizumi's injuries just by fighting him?

Noticing the strange look in Koizumi and Sakuya's eyes, Arthur raised the corners of his mouth slightly and spoke slowly.

"Don't be so surprised. Your movements were a little stiff during the fight just now, which clearly shows that something's wrong with your body! But my sword strike wasn't aimed at your vital points, so with your powerful vampire recovery ability, you should be able to recover quickly. So it shouldn't be that wound! So I guess you have some serious old injuries! And they're still affecting your ability to fight! This is an easy guess!"

Gu Quan's mouth twitched fiercely. "I had concealed it well earlier, but you were able to detect the difference in my movements while we were fighting! What the hell kind of monster are you?"

I'm talking about restraint! It's just a singularity that was burned by a person! Why did you summon such a monster?

Chapter 551 Patchouli is seriously injured

The battle was over, and it was Arthur who took the initiative to ask Boudica to retreat, because now was not the time to devote all the fighting power. Wasting too much fighting power here would not be a good thing, and would instead cause too much damage to one's own side.

Gu Quan had to admit this. If the two sides remained deadlocked for too long, it would only hurt the enemy by a thousand and their own side by eight hundred!

This is not a tactic worth using. Although Boudica may act recklessly when she is angry, it is certain that she will not completely lose her mind with Arthur's restraint.

At Arthur's call, although Boudica felt a little unwilling, she still retreated obediently.

She also didn't want to lose too many compatriots here. If she wanted to take revenge, she must have enough compatriots to help her.

So Boudica silently chose to retreat. In this situation, she had to retreat! If she lost eight hundred lives here, the loss would outweigh the gain... Of course, in Boudica's eyes, getting Arthur's help was already a gain.

"Is Patchouli okay?" Koizumi looked anxiously at Patchouli, who was unable to move.

Ritsuka is not good at advanced magic, but he is quite good at healing magic.

So Ritsuka was responsible for healing all the injuries on Patchouli's body. The hideous scars on the surface have disappeared, but Patchouli is still lying motionless on the bed. The girl's body is very fragile, and it is normal for her to be motionless after suffering that kind of injury. As long as there is no big problem, she should have a good rest!

"...Mmm..." Patchouli's face showed deep fatigue and she rolled her eyes.

Being chopped up like this is really embarrassing. It's even more embarrassing than the time when he PKed with Marisa...

Patchouli felt that she had really embarrassed herself this time! After releasing a Noble Phantasm, she was chopped to pieces!

Being looked at like this by Koizumi, Patchouli sighed deeply inwardly. I'm so tired... I'll never come again, even if you kill me!

Who knew there were so many monsters in this singularity! One sword could destroy my library!

"Don't show off your bad mouth now! Get some rest! Patchouli! Leave the rest to me! Who knew a monster of this caliber would appear in this singularity?" Koizumi couldn't help but sigh.

One thing that is certain is that the Saber is not the Servant summoned by Boudica.

Logically, the other party had been on Boudica's side from the start, but they only said they were here to help midway through. This suggests they were a neutral Servant observing, only choosing to side with Boudica in the end! Koizumi couldn't understand their intentions, but one thing was certain!

——This guy’s ideas are normal, at least he is not on the side of destroying humanity!

But what’s troubling is that this guy’s ideas always give people a very dangerous feeling.

The guy who called himself Arthur clearly liked to play by his own rules, and it was precisely because of this that Koizumi was in such a dilemma! Faced with this unconventional guy, Koizumi didn't know how to deal with him.

What's more, this guy is so powerful that no one can stop him if a fight breaks out!

"...M'Q..." Patchouli's cheeks turned red when Koizumi teased her about her verbal habits.

Patchouli said that her habit of speaking is just a habit, so you should stop complaining about it here...

"So, Ritsuka, how do you communicate with those heroic spirits? Did they request a meeting?"

Koizumi's gaze turned to Ritsuka standing beside him. Basically, Koizumi left all the communication matters to Ritsuka.

When facing Nero, Koizumi was in charge of communication. As for the other Roman Heroic Spirits, Koizumi said it was better to leave them to Ritsuka. After all, they weren't cute girls, and Ritsuka wouldn't be of much use in combat. It would be better to leave it to Ritsuka. The previous battle was undoubtedly a bit over the top... This was definitely not a battle for Ritsuka...

"They said they'd come find us after they've dealt with the post-war situation! Let's take Patchouli-san and rest for a while... And the Saber before was Caesar, Lancer was Romulus, and Berserker was Caligula... There are only a few Servants here right now, and other Servants are fighting Boudica's Servants in other battlefields..." Ritsuka slowly told Koizumi the news he had gathered.

It is said that those summoned are famous heroes from Roman history - there are six servants in total!

One of them is the son of the god of war Mars, the true red god ancestor - Romulus!

The second is the monarch who founded the Roman Empire and the first emperor to be included among the Roman gods - the god Augustus!

The third is Tiberius, the adopted son of the god Augustus who is good at selecting talents and governing the country!

The fourth is the third emperor of the Roman Empire - Caligula!
