I am Honkai!

"This Holy Grail War, I always feel that there is something wrong, the red side...Why did they attack me? There is still something shady, afraid of being restricted by Ruler, a pair of servants..."

"It's very likely that the problem lies with the red side..."

Joan of Arc was once a human being, and she had thoughts and emotions. Even if she was canonized as a saint, no matter how fair she was in dealing with things, under the persecution of the red side who wanted to erase her, Joan of Arc's current judgment has shifted somewhat towards the black side. signs.

Because compared to each other, Black's side is much more 'normal'. Gods, kings, dragon slayers, great sages, puppet masters, and artificial life forms are all heroic spirits who descended with normal ranks.

Even if one of them was strong enough to violate the rules, Joan of Arc's first impression was the image of an arrogant and ruthless ruler that she disliked, but Joan of Arc asked herself, and under a fair judgment, this was within the normal range.

As for the other masters of the black side, it is more normal. Their personalities and ways of doing things are basically common among the large group of magicians. The desire to participate in the Holy Grail War is nothing more than to satisfy their own selfish desires, or to reach the root cause. .

Among them, Danik, who is the patriarch of the Ugdomirenia clan of the black side, although Joan repeatedly stated in person that he would not give any help to the black side, he still spoke with a good temper and treated her with courtesy.

He even kindly invited her to live in Black Fang's Mirenia Castle.

"That's Black's master Coles, right? His relationship with Berserker Frankenstein is not at all a master-servant, but rather a sincere love..."

Looking at the master and servant of the Black Berserker who were cultivating their relationship early in the morning in the courtyard lawn outside the castle window, their sincere and ignorant feelings could not help but relieve Joan's heavy heart a lot.

"It seems that all the problems are on the red side..."

Boom~!

"Lord Ruler, it's time for breakfast."

The voiceless words of the android maid came from outside the room door, and then the door was pushed open, and several android maids came into the room with dining carts and washing tools, and they immediately turned to Joan after seeing the figure of Joan of Arc. She salutes.

"Excuse me, Master Ruler, please..."

"Ahhh, don't be so polite, I'll just do it myself."

Seeing this, even in the face of the artificial humans, Joan quickly waved her hand and rejected their cumbersome aristocratic etiquette, and told the maids that it would be fine to come by herself.

"Okay, Lord Ruler, please take it easy, I will take my leave."

Respectfully saluted again, and then the android maids quickly and skillfully exited Joan's room.

"Hoo..." Joan of Arc looked at the hot water basin on the top floor of the cart and the white towel hanging on the handrail, and sighed helplessly.

"...The courtesy to me is really a difficult problem to deal with, how to repay it... oh..."

Joan of Arc was just an ordinary girl in the French countryside before participating in the war, and even after leading the army, she had a hard military career. It is not uncommon to have this kind of experience of being served by others, but it is rare, and she herself is not used to it.

After wiping her face with a hot towel and rinsing her mouth, Joan of Arc looked at the many delicacies on the lower floor of the cart and thought silently.

"Replenish your energy first and then investigate. In any case, you must investigate the problem yourself."

...

Boom!The knock on the door rang again.

squeak~

"Lord Ruler, the Patriarch invites you to the castle hall to speak."

"Well, please lead the way." After eating and drinking enough, Joan of Arc immediately changed her costume into a Servant's spiritual armor, followed the android maid to leave the guest room, and walked towards the central hall of the Mirenia Castle.

Along the way, the cyborgs patrolling inside the castle and the tall warrior summoned by the servant who was downgraded from the gods attracted Joan's attention.

"These tall heroic soldiers are the same as the golden-armored giant who went to deal with the red Lancer Karna. They are all products of the Black Rider Legion's Summoning Noble Phantasm. This number...is really a foul ability."

After the sigh, Joan's eyes were fixed on these impassive and lifeless man-made people who looked like living dead, "The man-made man... some kind of alchemy technique of Master Black Fang is really a superb craft... .”

"May yours rest in peace." Joan was not qualified to point fingers at Black's actions, let alone stop them from doing so. She could only pray for these artificial humans in her heart.

These artificial humans are the property of the Yugdomerenia family. The birth of these artificial humans is a disaster from the very beginning. They are just consumables prepared by their creators to win the Holy Grail War.

The only bad thing is that these 'consumables' are a little more delicate and beautiful, and they tend to arouse some strange 'kindness' attacks.

Quite realistically speaking, if you think about it, if these androids are all faceless, or if they are all ugly, deformed, and not even consumables for humanoid, you think there will be so many people thinking about it? To redeem them?

"Why is that artificial human being naked || naked and being held by the golden armored soldiers under the Black Rider?" Under the influence of the A-level inherent skill revelation, Joan guessed the reason a little bit.

Inspiration, the same skill as "Intuition".

Intuition is the sixth sense in combat, but "revelation" applies to all things related to the achievement of goals (such as choosing the most suitable path during the journey).Since (in my opinion) there is no basis, there is no way to explain the reason to others.

Joan murmured: "Could it be that the man-made man is special...is it awakened self-awareness to resist the domination of its master..."

"Ruler, Your Excellency the Holy Maiden, did you rest well last night?" The familiar cold voice came to her ears, and Joan of Arc woke up from her thoughts instantly.

In an instant, in the corridor of the castle, no matter whether it was the housekeeping androids leading the way for Joan of Arc, or the battle-specialized androids deployed in large numbers to patrol and guard, the moment they saw Selene, they all bowed their knees and saluted.

Looking around, Joan sighed in her heart. She still doesn't like the existence of Selene. Even if she is a god, the cruel and authoritarian ruler's atmosphere in her is too strong.

"Your Majesty Rider, you don't need to call me that, just call me Joan of Arc... With your care, everything will be fine."

Looking at Selene, who was wearing a gorgeous crown, Joan nodded slightly and said that she had no intention of interfering with the private affairs of the Yogdomerenia family, such as artificial humans.

Although Joan of Arc is kind, she also has self-knowledge, and she still recognizes the reality clearly. Not to mention that she cannot save all artificial humans, if she takes action alone, then the third-party referee position as the Ruler judge will disappear.

And once the black camp also turns against her and attacks herself, then she can basically go straight back to the Seat of Heroes.

"That's good...then, Joan of Arc will come with me, I can tell you some interesting information if I feel like it."

"The priest of the Holy Church, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, he seems to have control over multiple followers." Saying that, the two came to the magnificent hall.

...

"Your Majesty, I happen to have a new piece of news to report to you."

Seeing that Selene and Joan of Arc came here together, Danik, who controls the Encyclopedia of the World in the hall to monitor the entire territory of Sighisoara, took out a newspaper and handed it over, "The traitorous Assassin has arrived in Tuliphas."

Taking the newspaper handed over by Danic, Selene quickly glanced at it. On the eye-catching position of the newspaper, the news headline 'Jack the Ripper Reappears' is printed in red and bold.

"Treason? Has the Black Assassin betrayed you?" Joan of Arc asked.

"Well." Danik nodded, "Although it's a bit embarrassing to say it, I have to admit that Assassin did betray us and killed our Master who summoned her."

"Jack the Assassin Ripper is currently still in Sighisoara, where the Red Team stronghold is. It is daytime now. She should not continue to commit crimes in a short time, nor will she move to another city."

These are all worthless information, and Darnic naturally has nothing to hide.

The current Danic is not so keen on the Ruler. He can win the best, and it doesn't matter if he can't. If he dares to block the way, he will kill him directly. As for the honorifics, it's just his habit.

With the trump card of Selene, strength determines confidence, and Darnic is so inflated now!

"Look, Your Majesty, this is the scene after Jack the Ripper's Assassin attack."

Looking at the picture projected by the Encyclopedia of the World, Joan of Arc frowned immediately, "How could she attack innocent people other than those who participated in the Holy Grail War?"

"It's not easy. Of course, it's a magic replenishment. After killing the magic offering of the master who is a magician, Jack the Assassin Ripper needs to find another way if he wants to continue to exist."

Handing the newspaper to Joan, Selene crossed her arms.

"In the daily newspaper, Sighisoara is now shrouded in panic caused by serial killers. Not only magicians, but also many visiting tourists were killed. All the corpses were dismembered and their hearts were dug out. The situation is miserable."

"For humans, the human heart is like the spiritual core of the servant. It is the source of life, but for Assassin, eating the heart is probably to replenish the magic power."

As she said that, Selene waved her hand to take over Danick's control of the World Book. After some operations, a young girl with a small figure, short silver hair, and emerald green pupils appeared in the projection.

At this moment, her immature face with several scars is full of innocent and happy smiles, but the corners of her mouth are so terrifying, full of blood, gnawing at human hearts.

"Joan of Arc, if you were asked to deal with Jack the Ripper, the Assassin who became an evil spirit, would you be merciful?" Selene asked casually, turning her head.

"Don't underestimate me, Your Majesty Rider."

Joan of Arc put down the newspaper, and said coldly: "I was also a person who experienced war before my death. Although I was canonized as a saint, killing people is no stranger to me. I also had a lot of blood on my hands."

"That's true."

Although Joan of Arc was canonized as a saint, she came out of the war and even served as an army commander. Besides the idiot, there is no general who has no blood on his hands throughout the ages.

"Then, let's go, Jeanne, the target: Sighisoara, my mission is to eliminate the rebels; your mission is to purify the evil spirits."

"If you're lucky, you might even meet a follower from the red side..."

Chapter 270 This round, Joan of Arc was completely defeated!

Suction slip.jpg

Sighisoara.

This is the small town where the church on the hill where Amakusa Shiro Tokisada was previously stronghold is located, and it is a town adjacent to Tulifas ruled by the 'black' Fang Yugdomirenia clan.

Because this is the city where the 'Red' Fang Magic Association and the Church of the Holy Church are jointly entrenched, there are still a relatively large number of magicians in this small town.

In addition to sending six heroic masters from the London Clock Tower Magic Association, in order to better quell the incidents after the end of the Holy Grail War here, they also sent many magicians to assist the masters of the red side in the pre-war battle. Intelligence exploration work and post-war finishing work, etc.

In addition to the staff of the Church of the Holy Church, in this small town called Sighişoara, there are quite a few "mysterious" people. It is not uncommon for the Black Assassin, Jack the Ripper, to keep an eye on this place. Reasonable.

At this moment, located on the outskirts of this town, on the original site of the church on the hill built on the hillside, two figures, one high and one low, are standing on the incomplete and dilapidated stone steps watching the devastated church base due to the Holy Grail War. .

Among them, vaguely visible concrete fragments, sculpture fragments, bent and melted steel bars and other building debris are mixed with large and small potholes.

It is very strange that Romania's fire response speed should have been slow to respond to such a large explosion and fire accident, but the official did not take any action.

High probability... No, it should be said that it is certain. The magician sent by the Magic Association handled the official actions of Sighisoara. Apart from this, Selene can't guess what else is possible.

"This was originally a church... Sure enough, no matter what kind of war it is, it's better not to happen." Joan of Arc sighed.

"But it's obviously impossible. Where there are people, there are fights. Desires are endless..."

Picking up a piece of pitch-black iron ingot that was blown away by the high temperature and explosion, and crushing it into iron powder with two fingers, Selene ended the topic and said thoughtfully: "The red side has already evacuated, it seems that Amakusa Shiro Tokisada is not here yet. I don't want to see you."

"Does Your Majesty know the current location of Hong Fang? That surveillance projection treasure..."

Joan tried to gesture and said, she is really eager to see Amakusa Shiro Tokizane to confirm some things, the next best thing is to meet other red masters.

Originally, the true name detection inherent skill of the Ruler class can see through the true name, class, and performance information of a follower.

Even if it is Selene, no matter how powerful her body is, after the legend of the data group is transformed into a heroic spirit, a heroic spirit is a heroic spirit, and it must operate within the rules of the Great Holy Grail.

If Selene didn't have the hidden effect of the Noble Phantasm, she would be seen through without exception.

Noble Phantasm: Brilliant Moon Soul is one of the other effects after being misrepresented and exaggerated. It can conceal the information of its owner.

And its A-level Noble Phantasm evaluation is undoubtedly much better than the 'red' Saber Mordred's C-level helmet for concealing infidelity.

Although it is also impossible to hide Selene's servant class and corresponding class skills, other real names, ability parameters, treasures and inherent skills, as long as Joan's luck is not as high as Selene's, no bit of information can be snooped arrive.

Using the magic power to release the iron powder embers crushed between her fingers, Selene said angrily, "That's called the Encyclopedia of the World."

"Then can we use the Encyclopedia of the World to find their location?" Jeanne blinked and continued to ask.

"It was possible before, but not now. The Assassin Empress Semiramis of the red side also has EX-level enchantment treasures. I was able to search for their locations before because her treasure has not been completed yet."

"Now that Semiramis's Noble Phantasm is estimated to have been completed, it has become impossible for Quan Shi Shi to observe the movement of the Red Party through her enchantment Noble Phantasm, unless the Red Party goes out of the enchantment range by itself. ..”

"...Moreover, the red side will not sit still."

As she said that, Selene looked up to her side. On the branch of the remaining street tree, a gray-white pigeon exuding a faint halo was looking at her and Joan of Arc impressively.

"Familiar..." Regarding this, Selene didn't directly erase it with her hands. On the contrary, she held her palm empty, and an exquisite glazed cup appeared out of thin air.

Selene made a gesture of toasting.

"It's Red Fang's familiar..."

Ending the saint's sigh of mercy, Joan of Arc, dressed in a classic student uniform, stepped forward and said coldly, wearing a white shirt and long-sleeved dark blue formal suit, black shorts and knee stockings.

"I am the arbiter of this Holy Grail War, Ruler, Jeanne Darc, now, the master of the red side, my question, why attack me, you should understand what it means to act as the arbiter of the Holy Grail War What are you doing!"

...

On the other side, in the enclosed garden courtyard illuminated by magic artificial brilliance, the only remaining servants of the red side sat down at the central stone table.

"There has always been a question, isn't Her Majesty an Assassin? Why is the skill form more like a Caster...Is this garden made by a formation?"

Shishi Jiejieli, the only Master who appeared on the red side, asked curiously, looking straight at Semiramis with dark eyes.

Looking back at Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, seeing that he had no objection, Semiramis said, "Double summoning. It allows me to keep the special skills of both Assassin and Caster at the same time."

"Is that white-haired woman the black servant who put you in a hard fight, Saber?" Looking at the white-haired red-eyed woman in the picture, Amakusa Shiro Tokisada asked.

"Well, it's her!"

Sitting cross-legged next to Shijie Jieli, Mordred crossed his arms and said solemnly, "She seems to have found us. Look, she is still toasting us. Is this an invitation to fight?"

"Isn't it normal to find out? As a god, you can't discover my magic tricks, so how stupid is this god? How stupid are you who was defeated by her?"

As soon as he got the chance, Semiramis said venomously without hesitation.
