Zongman: People in Conan, raising cats and mice

The night fell quietly as ink. Matsumoto Akira bid farewell to the girls present and set off for the opening battle with the heroic spirits.

The girls present were not worried about Matsumoto Akira's departure.

This is not only because Matsumoto Akira himself is very powerful, but more importantly, he is protected by two powerful heroic spirits, and neither of them is weak.

Although the girls don't know that there is another cousin Tom and Jerry from another world hiding beside Matsumoto Akira, this does not affect their peace of mind about Matsumoto Akira's safety.

The cousin and Hawkeye Tom hid in the dark like invisible men, without releasing any fluctuations from beginning to end, and they didn't even pay attention to Altria and Medusa.

Because for these heroes with intuition, they can basically sense it once you set your eyes on them.

This is not because they know that the other party has such ability, but more importantly, they have been able to do it before.

Whether it's the cousin or Hawkeye Tom, when someone looks at them, even if there is no hostility in the other person's eyes, they can still find the other person.

It was based on this condition that the cousin and Hawkeye Tom did not look at or sense Altria and Medusa.

Matsumoto Akira was leading Altria and Medusa forward steadily, when suddenly a flash of fire flashed across the distant sky, as bright as a meteor.

Immediately afterwards, Matsumoto Akira saw a huge magic circle unfold instantly and bloom like a gorgeous flower.

The night gradually rose, and it was as dark as ink, but in fact, there were still many people wandering outside. The street suddenly became wider, like an unfolding painting.

Many drunkards who had been drinking after get off work were sent home subconsciously, as if they were blown away by a breeze.

Then, those who were originally busy with their work began to leave one by one, like a group of birds returning to their nests.

As for the previous movement, these people seemed to be completely unaware of it, like sleeping babies, immersed in their own world.

"Hahahahahahaha, it seems that my old rival was the first to open the curtain of war?" Walking on the street, Moriarty laughed with some surprise.

Conan, who was standing by, exclaimed, "Sherlock Holmes is capable of this?!"

"Isn't that natural? Even if he couldn't do it originally, he has now descended as a caster!"

Moriarty smiled lightly. Heroic Spirits were such unreasonable creatures. Even if they were originally incapable of it, after being downgraded and descended as a Servant, it was natural for them to master some of the abilities of their class.

"It seems that I don't need to open the battlefield this time. I just wonder if the host will show up?"

Cu Chulainn, who was carrying a scarlet spear on his shoulder, also laughed, but compared to the more reserved Moriarty, Cu Chulainn's laughter was much more heroic.

"It would be great if we could finish it in one night!" Miwako Sato sighed.

Although the people around did not react at all due to the loud noise before, Sato Miwako still found something wrong because of Cu Chulainn's protection.

Naturally, it is understood that even if the so-called heroic spirits have not reached the ultimate in destructive power, they can still crush modern people in other aspects.

When she thought about having to fight with seven such opponents, Sato Miwako felt like her head was about to explode with pain, as if millions of ants were gnawing at it.

The masters and heroic spirits who had received the notice earlier all came here, but no one took action in advance until the sound of footsteps was heard.

"Tap~tap~tap~"

On the dark and gloomy battlefield, the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if water could drip out. Artoria walked towards the core of the battlefield steadily and firmly, step by step.

Her pace was like that of a precise clock. Every step she took was full of determination, and the ground beneath her feet seemed to tremble slightly with her steps.

She was wearing her iconic silver-white armor. The exquisite armor still gleamed coldly in the dim light, as if it contained endless power.

Every line on the armor was like a flash of lightning, flashing a terrifying light.

The blue cloak fluttered in the wind like a flowing ocean, and her long golden hair fell on her shoulders like a waterfall, and every strand of hair seemed to sparkle with a tenacious light.

Her face was beautiful yet majestic, her fair skin exuded a coldness, her emerald green eyes were as deep as a pool, and her gaze was firm and sharp.

The main purpose of Matsumoto Akira asking her to come alone was to separate them and prevent others from linking them together.

But the more important thing is that compared to Medusa, Artoria is easier to deal with when fighting alone or even facing a siege by multiple people.

Saber is the most balanced among all the characters, if it is the most ordinary Holy Grail War, she is the most balanced in terms of her comprehensive qualities in all aspects.

Saber's numerical values ​​in all aspects are like an insurmountable peak for other heroic spirits, and she has an absolute advantage.

It’s a pity that the Holy Grail War has been messed up and has become unrecognizable.

If you really fight according to the numbers of the Heroic Spirits shown in the Holy Grail War, you will lose miserably.

The values ​​of the Heroic Spirits are like randomly filled numbers. After all, they are demoted to Servants to participate in the competition.

If you really get serious about it, it would be normal to make a slight breakthrough and draw a little bit of strength from your own body, right?

Even under the serious concern of Gaia and Alaya, there are still heroes who can suddenly burst out or exert unimaginable power in battle.

What's more, some of the organizers of the Holy Grail War are not clean themselves, so how could they allow Gaia and Alaya to observe this place casually, so they opened a back door for everyone.

Obviously, everyone does not seem to have very strong numerical panels, but in this situation, the actual fight can make people cry.

Artoria came to the center of the battlefield, and her already endless fighting spirit began to radiate, like a burning flame, "illuminating" the entire battlefield.

Not to mention those Heroic Spirits who had no aversion to battle in the first place, even those Masters who originally had no desire for battle were affected to a certain extent.

"What a strong and vigorous fighting spirit! Why don't you let me go and meet you first?" Cu Chulainn said, turning to look at Sato Miwako, with excitement flashing in his eyes.

Sato Miwako just rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "If you want to go, go ahead. Can I still control you?"

"After all, Master also needs to report his work to me. I am working under you now!"

Cu Chulainn blinked his eyes. He was quite obedient to the rules, unlike some other heroes who would retaliate directly.

Even those heroic spirits who are usually more disciplined would at most give notice and leave at such times.

But he is different. He said he would come to help with the work, so he will definitely help with the work.

The main thing is to be obedient. Of course, he is so considerate and he hopes that his master can also be more considerate.

"Okay, then you go first, and remember to be safe!"

Miwako Sato rubbed her eyebrows. She had never said anything like this before.

But who cares about the fact that now it’s a battle between heroic spirits, rather than the possible dangers encountered in daily life?

Even with Cu Chulainn's strength, it is possible that something unexpected might happen in such a battle.

"boom--"

Another cloud of smoke rose, and Cu Chulainn slowly stood up from the ground. Under his feet was a hole of moderate size, as if he had been hit by a meteorite.

"You must be Saber! What a fierce fighting spirit!"

"Is it you? It's been a long time!"

Altria blinked. Because of some of her memories, she knew that she had met the other party before in a Holy Grail War.

But the memory is not very deep. After all, when those memories return to her body, it is like a virtual movie.

Although it is generally immersive, it is ultimately very different from being there in person. It is impossible to fully empathize with others, let alone have a deep memory of them.

"Haha, I almost forgot that we are acquaintances now! No wonder I always feel that this line is a little familiar!"

Cu Chulainn scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, and then his face became serious again.

"Ahem! It's better not to drink too much at this time. After all, we are also participating in the Holy Grail War!"

"Of course. Even if we have met before in the Holy Grail War, I will not show any mercy!"

Altria said with a smile, and the sword of oath and victory in her hand was already revealed. The only difference from the past was that this time the sword was not wrapped in that invisible force.

Instead, the dazzling and brilliant sword body was directly exposed to the enemy. Even without a scabbard, Altria still did not feel that she would be inferior to others holding the sword.

"Then let me see if your former skills have declined!" A cold light flashed in Cu Chulainn's eyes.

Artoria held the Sword of Promised Victory tightly in both hands, with a firm gaze, staring directly at Cu Chulainn, like an indestructible fortress.

Cu Chulainn held the Death Thorn Spear in his hand, but there was a hint of lightness in his expression. It was not that he looked down on Artoria, but he was simply trying to make the other party look down on him.

It’s just that outward performance is nothing at all. No matter how nonchalant he appears to be, his inside is still tense, like a string that is about to break.

Unfortunately, Artoria had fought against Cu Chulainn before in another Holy Grail War, so she was not fooled. Cu Chulainn had to attack first, and his spear stabbed at Artoria like lightning.

Artoria swiftly dodged sideways and swung her sword back. The wind from the sword whistled, as if waves of sword energy were going to flatten the surroundings. Cu Chulainn immediately swung his spear back to block, and the two collided, sparks flew, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night sky.

Immediately afterwards, Cu Chulainn's spear tip swept across, and the spear tip was like a ferocious poisonous snake, pouncing towards Artoria with its fangs and claws bared.

Altria leaped up and slashed the sword downwards with great momentum. The sword flashed like lightning, as if it would split the whole world in half.

Cu Chulainn knelt on one knee and used the spear to defend himself. The ground shook slightly. No matter how powerful Artoria's attack was, it could not shake Cu Chulainn's spear.

The two men switched between offense and defense quickly, and Cu Chulainn's spear became more and more powerful. The tip of the spear attacked like a storm, making it difficult for people to cope.

Artoria seized the opportunity and thrust out a powerful sword. The sword was like a sharp cold wind, going straight to Cu Chulainn's throat.

Cu Chulainn held the spear in his hand horizontally to block the sword, and then the two men separated very quickly.

The situation was at a stalemate for a while, and neither Cu Chulainn nor Artoria had the idea of ​​launching another attack.

The test just now has made them gradually regain their touch, and their state has adjusted very quickly.

If they continue fighting, it will really deplete their strength.

It is extremely foolish to waste your own energy when others have not yet shown up.

"Well, it seems that there are no fools in the Holy Grail War after all! Little Master~ would you like to accompany me to the battlefield below to meet them?"

Moriarty adjusted his clothes in front of the mirror, and at the same time spoke to Conan who was sitting next to him.

Conan shook his head and said, "I'd better forget it. If I go down directly, it will be too dangerous!"

If it is for the purpose of solving a case, Conan can actually endure this kind of danger. After all, there is still a little protection, even if this protection is not so reliable.

But when I go down there, I'm not going to investigate a case or anything, so there's no need for me to take risks with Moriarty.

Wouldn't it be better to just stay here obediently and watch Sherlock Holmes appear?

And that Kaito Kidd!!!

Conan still can't understand why he summoned Moriarty, while Kaito Kid summoned Sherlock Holmes instead.

In a dark corner, Lancelot also came to a conclusion. He turned around and said to Kyogoku Makoto beside him.

"The King's battle is over for now! Next, I will pretend to be insane and come on stage after the next person comes on stage!"

"Actually, the Berserker who lost his mind still retained his sanity. Is this also a trump card?"

Kyogoku Makoto nodded. Although this strategy was simple, it was quite effective.
