Ambition of the King of Knights

Once, Arthur always thought that his little friends were cool and domineering, especially Thranduil, who was so handsome that he looked like an expert. However, he didn't realize how naive he was until he actually went to the battlefield...

Originally, the most fundamental reason why he planned to fight the enemy was that he didn’t want unnecessary casualties. Generally, he could wipe out most of the enemy troops with one Excalibur. Then, the morale of the enemy is strong, and the morale of one’s own is greatly shaken, so it’s much easier to fight. , this time he played the same abacus.

If the opponent is really rushing up tirelessly like Thranduil and the others said, personal force is actually not very useful, unless you have a Noble Phantasm with an extremely wide capture range like him, or gather a large-scale force Uninterrupted attack or defense.

Arthur didn't intend to stick to it all the time. As the saying goes, if you defend for a long time, you will lose. He didn't want to fall into the trap of fatigue, so his idea was to concentrate all the troops near the Cheviot border to defend, and take turns to fight as training. Then he and his friends formed an elite team to break through the siege, and use curry sticks to open the way to solve the culprit.

As for why he was able to go straight to Huanglong with such confidence instead of being turned around by the black hands behind the scenes...

"Isn't there still you here?" Arthur looked at his great sage with extremely trusting eyes, "With you here, there must be no problem."

"..." Merlin was silent, he should be happy for the king's trust, but how should I say it?It always feels weird, although he can indeed divination the location of the enemy.

"Besides, I have a hunch that the other party is coming for me...although I can't explain why."

The other party attacked the mobile treasury unicorn, did not blackmail the wealthy sea tribe, provoked the uneasy elves, and then came to attack his Great Britain. Isn't this too condescending?However, this does not seem to be aimed at capturing the city, but just unconsciously attacking everything that blocks the road.

What's more, he suspected that the other party might be looking for someone, or simply saying that he was leading him out.

Arthur smiled, as if he felt that these mummy-like and LEVEL monsters were caused by magic, this can be attributed to the divine intuition, and if this is the case, their manipulators cannot be too far away.

Merlin's divination showed that it was indeed what he thought, as long as he went forward bravely and passed through the monster's blockade, he would definitely be able to see the mastermind behind the scenes, so he also let go.

If there is any regret - in the words of the previous game, Thranduil is biased towards rangers, with strong single attack, but weak group attack, and relies on weapons, while goblins are gunners. The machine, the unicorn is the nanny of the light, and the blood-replenishing light magic is good, but after all, the output is limited, and the mermaid queen Ariel is actually a summoner in the shell of a mage, or the kind that specializes in ocean babies... But it's not at sea right now , it can be said that most of it was abolished.

In short, fortunately, there is Arthur who can fight, resist, and radiate cannons. In addition, Merlin did not hold back this time and directly used it as a mobile fort. It's off the street.

Arthur, who had to resist monsters, slash monsters, and output light cannons, was very tired.

Although Excalibur is an anti-city treasure with great power, the maximum capture range is 1000 people. However, it seems that there are tens of thousands of monsters coming densely. Arthur, who was thinking of sweeping the battlefield with curry sticks, can only Slowed down the rhythm, and only used it at the critical moment. Even so, his face paled a lot.

"Okay, little unicorn, you don't need to treat me anymore, I'm not injured."

Arthur was exhausted due to the continuous zoom-in moves, so he directly rode on the back of the unicorn. Fortunately, although the unicorn is not yet fully grown, it has mastered some secret techniques to increase its size. It's about the same size as a big horned deer, otherwise he wouldn't have the heart to oppress the cub.

"It can't go on like this." Thranduil frowned at the unicorn who kept healing Arthur, "The healing magic of the exclusive beast can't replenish vitality..."

"Merlin, how far are we from our destination?" Arthur looked around, they were already trapped in a circle, and it was no surprise that these things were no longer attacking the city, but rushed towards him one after another come over.

Sure enough, the target is him?However, he doesn't remember when he sinned against the Necromancer!

"Come on, hold on a little longer."

Merlin looked at the crystal ball and frowned. His ability is absolutely top-notch. It can even be said that he is about to step into the realm of the gods. Even space can't stop him, but that's the case. The prediction this time is also vague. Vaguely, they can only barely know that there is a turning point ahead, and they have no choice but to move forward.

"I finally know what it means to have too many ants to kill an elephant. I guessed wrong."

Arthur smiled wryly. He originally thought that he could crush the number with the top-notch treasure among the future heroic spirits, but he didn't expect to be able to produce such unlimited cannon fodder. You know, even those vampires with high-level combat power are restricted There was no shadow.

"Merlin, I remember that you have teleportation spells, right? It's just that the preparation time is a bit longer." Arthur was silent for a while, and that was all he could do. "Now you keep the magic power and start preparing, and then take them away .”

"Are you looking down on us!?" Bogrod frowned, which made him look even weirder, "We goblins aren't...well, we're just a little timid, but that doesn't mean I Will abandon my true friend!"

Thranduil and Ariel on the side didn't speak, but their disapproving eyes said everything.

"You also have your own responsibilities, don't you?" Arthur shook his head and smiled, "And Merlin also said that the opportunity to solve this incident lies with me, and their target is also me, so this is the way The most reasonable. Since there is only a little way left, just rely on Excalibur to open the way."

"But……"

"It's not impossible." Merlin thought about it, and then pointed to the unicorn, "Let this little guy accompany you, anyway, unicorns can grow wings and fly, even if he can't beat him, he can still take you away .But my magic preparation took a long time, maybe we have found the root cause before that.”

"I will accept your auspicious words..."

No, it's not really necessary.

Merlin curled the corner of his mouth silently. He named his teleportation magic Apparition. In addition to the comparison of magic power, control, concentration and proficiency, this kind of magic actually takes a very short time to sing. This incident, now he can get rid of everyone included.

However, he concealed his strategic ability at the beginning because he couldn't think too much about the secular world, but now it's a lot more convenient - isn't he the one who decides when he's ready?He didn't care if he could save Arthur by dragging others into the water.

"..."

Arthur glanced at Merlin, although he agreed quickly, but he didn't know why he felt weird, but now he couldn't think of any good way, so he could only look at his reminder again.

At least, he didn't have to worry about the group of companions who followed him to the battlefield.

'Who the hell did it?And why are you targeting me?This is definitely not an illusion, my intuition is comparable to that of Vengley. '

'Strangely, however, I feel no malice...'

'If it really started because of me, then let me end this farce. '

'...'

Thinking this way, he saw the monsters surrounding him again because of Merlin's firepower drop, and released Excalibur again without hesitation. The brilliant brilliance enveloped the earth, even better than the afterglow of the setting sun, but he didn't realize that he His figure became translucent and distorted in an instant, and the shadow on the ground also began to distort.

'This is—this feeling, could it be [her]? ! '

Merlin's pupils shrank, and he suddenly understood something. He looked at the monsters who had turned into nothingness, and frowned in thought. Could it be that there was something wrong there?However, if it is that person, there should be no problem, after all, King Arthur is a well-deserved [hero]!

Moreover, if you want to go there, you don't need any designated place or time, you just need 'her' to be willing... But, when did Arthur provoke that person? !

At the same moment, when Merlin thought of something, Arthur only felt that he had received some kind of unknown summon, and suddenly left the battlefield, and came to an almost barren place where shadows spread in all directions, and dark clouds enveloped the entire night sky , as if it is a dark place where no sunlight will ever shine.

"here is?"

"Welcome to the Kingdom of Shadows."

A long-haired woman with dark purple hair and red eyes stood not far away and raised the corners of her lips towards him, seeming very happy, her awe-inspiring posture and fierce fighting spirit, as if she was a queen who was born to be superior to others, There is an eye-catching mysterious atmosphere.

Of course, what attracted Arthur's attention more was the thing in the woman's hand.

"This is the place where only true heroes come..." The woman unconsciously stroked a golden cup in her hand, and said slowly, "I am Scatha, the queen of this place—even though I say so, here is also It's just me."

"I'm Arthur Pendragon." Arthur nodded and introduced himself politely. Thinking of his companions who were still fighting bloody battles, he couldn't help getting straight to the point, "I'm happy to help women in trouble, but in Please tell me before that, are those monsters your masterpiece?"

"I know you, King Arthur. No matter how many times I peeked into the future, I only saw my best disciple, Cu Chulainn, without you. My closest, most beloved, and most outstanding disciple is him... However, you broke this fate, as long as you are my disciple, he must exist under your shadow, and after thousands of years, your name should be sung by the world."

"I……"

"Do you know how unbelievable this is? After I killed the gods, I was equivalent to stepping into the realm of the gods, and the predicted future has never been wrong!"

"..."

Arthur sighed, the excited Scathach obviously couldn't hear his question, but he remembered who she was after being reminded like this - after all, this disciple Cu Chulainn is really famous.

Scathach is the queen who ruled the "Kingdom of Shadows" in Celtic mythology, a goddess of war who possesses super strength and is good at military and combat. According to legend, she gave heroes trials and taught them fighting skills. Only the heroes recognized by her can step into the Kingdom of Shadows and return alive.

"Sorry, if I have enough time, I don't mind discussing this issue with you. After all, it is a very pleasant thing to chat with a beautiful and connotative lady like you." Arthur had to interrupt Scathach's chatter The words, "But now my friends are in trouble, if you want, can you please take back those things? We can talk slowly later."

"Ah? Ah! A lady who is beautiful, beautiful and connotative, you mean me?!"

Skaha was stunned for a moment, her face was a little flushed, she lost the mystery and arrogance before, but she had a bit of shyness unique to women, even if she was hailed as the Goddess of War, she still had a bit of shyness in her heart. The longing to be regarded as a female guardian is just ignored by everyone because of his strength.

"...could you please bring those monsters back? That way we'll have time to talk."

The corner of Arthur's mouth twitched, and he had to repeat this sentence for the third time. This queen looks so reliable, glamorous and noble, but why is she so cute in reality?

No, no, Arthur, maybe even if she pretends to be stupid, it's hard to lower your defenses!

But is this cute and cute guy really behind the scenes?

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

Arthur: This beautiful lady...

Scathach: (shy) Low oil, so shy, are you talking about others? (blush) (blush) (blush)

Arthur: ... (Could this be a love story from the Land of Shadows? It's obviously a very common courtesy?)

Scathach: ... (Heartbeat is so fast, is this the rhythm of King Arthur's affection for others?)

Cu Chulainn: Don't think about it, teacher, you are so old and you still miss other people's fresh meat—ah——————

Scathach: (cold and noble) It's time for you to strengthen your training, Cu Chulainn.
