As of now, no one except Shirou knows this, not even the Knights of the Round Table.
From the moment the Lion King summoned the Knights of the Round Table in this singularity, the Knights of the Round Table were troubled by the knight's ideals and their loyalty to the king, and they were divided into two groups.
One faction agreed to help the Lion King, the other wanted to stop the Lion King's inhumane behavior.
Although the establishment of the city of Camelot that the Knights of the Round Table longed for is a good thing to be happy about, when the ideal becomes a constraint, it becomes a torment for the Knights of the Round Table.
Of course, the most important point is...their king has changed. The king who was unbridled and heroic on the battlefield but dignified and upright in the kingdom has now become a cold and ruthless god.
Some of the knights who couldn't bear it asked questions.
"Knight King, do you really want to completely exterminate humanity?"
"The power of a king lies in restraint and tolerance. The virtue of a knight lies in adhering to the rules. My king, we have done it, have you done it?"
Chapter 4 Holy City Camelot
The five Knights of the Round Table, Boss, Percival, Lanmarlock, Geraint, and Kay, refused to assist the Lion King.
Gawain, Mordred, Lancelot, Aguewen, and Tristan chose to assist the Lion King.
Starting from this, the Knights of the Round Table, who used to be a unit, split into two factions.
"Everyone, please wake up, the king is no longer a king - he has become a god!"
Baos roared with all his strength. It might be a bit inconsistent to describe it as degenerating into a god, but this is the most real feeling in the hearts of Baos's group.
When Bose woke up, it was too late. Although he informed the other fellow Knights of the Round Table about the matter, only half of the people were willing to join him in resisting the Lion King. In addition, these people who united with them had the power in their hands. All the troops had been recruited by the king long ago, and there was no capital to resist.
They originally planned to wait and see what would happen, but after seeing the king massacre the eliminated people, and after feeling that the king was no longer the original king, but a cold and ruthless existence like a god, these five Knights of the Round Table resolutely The flag of resistance was raised.
"Are you really going to help the king do such a sinful thing? Have you forgotten the oath you made?!"
However, Gawain's group seemed to be possessed, and no one was awake.
The round table of the Knights of the Round Table represents the original public opinion. The king and the knights are kings and ministers, and they are also close friends in private. Perhaps because the 'dinner table' is not in their hands, this chivalry spirit has been tested.
When you see a friend going astray, you should naturally try to persuade him. If you don't listen, you can only beat him until he wakes up.
It's a pity that the king's strength is too strong. The Lion King who became a god has essentially surpassed the heroic spirits and is far beyond the ability of the Knights of the Round Table to compete.
There is no compatibility between the ideas of man and God.
Because of the king's change, he had huge differences with many knights who adhered to their creed.
The most serious point was the way in which the "Election Day" was held.
Those who were selected were fine, but those who were not selected were all executed without exception, which is the so-called "solitude".
Precisely because these failed refugees are allowed to leave, they are likely to feel resentful and become members of the resistance. In order to kill them all without leaving any trouble, this seems very rational in the eyes of the gods, but it is also a human nature. The most upright Knights of the Round Table seemed to have no humanity at all.
The Lion King's inhumane approach is equivalent to killing the last hope of survival for the refugees, because except for the holy city of Camelot, other lands are very barren and no longer suitable for human survival.
The other one that can survive in this desert is the territory of Ramses II, but that pharaoh will only protect his Egyptian people. Although the old man in the mountain also wants to help the refugees, their situation is also the same. It's the same hardship. Even if you try your best to help, you still can't help everyone.
So for the losers, this world is already the end of the world.
Faced with the inevitable outcome of death no matter what, it is difficult for anyone to remain rational and not be jealous of the lucky ones in the ideal kingdom.
Therefore, the Lion King decided that instead of exposing these people's bad human nature, it would be better to grant them relief directly.
This is based on
From the way of thinking of gods, it is the best way.
Gareth in the Knights of the Round Table could not stand the king's behavior of driving the people to a dead end, nor was he willing to participate in the regicide of Boss and others, and finally died to remain loyal.
"I hereby swear an oath!" - Boss, Percival, Lanmarlock, Geraint, and Kai all swore an oath to the cold-looking Lion King.
"I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to stand up to rape, I swear to fight against all wrong, I swear to fight for the defenseless people, I swear to help anyone who asks me for help, I swear not to hurt any woman, I swear to help my My fellow countrymen, I swear to be true to my friends, and I swear to the spirit of chivalry until death!"
As the oath fell, the pair of eyes that were once full of longing for the spirit of chivalry became as dead as ashes.
The knights who were kneeling on one knee stood up and attacked their king and their former round table compatriots. From this moment on, they turned against each other.
However, as the king's holy spear appeared, when the light of the holy spear swirled and stirred, sweeping everything like a storm of light, the five resisting knights had been wiped out in the storm of light.
"The holy sword has been lost, my king has passed away... The round table is full of cracks. King of Knights, is this your choice? Your once noble spirit of chivalry is crying for your atrocities..."
The five defeated knights showed bitter smiles and looked at their king with sorrow in their eyes. Their bodies gradually turned into particles of light and returned to the Seat of Heroes.
Since then, there are only five Knights of the Round Table standing beside the king.
……
Passengers are lost in the yellow sand moraine, looking around at the sky and falling straight down.
At nightfall, Shirou and others finally approached the holy city.
Looking around, the majestic city of Camelot has appeared in the field of vision.
"The Lion King...I don't know what has become..."
Shirou thought about what to say when they met.
However, after speaking, Shirou felt that he had to suppress the divinity in Saber first.
"Bedivere should be here by this time."
While Shirou was guessing this, Gudazi beside him saw his eyes shining brightly when he saw the city and rushed towards it excitedly.
"Ah ah ah finally found it!"
"Senior, please slow down!"
Matthew quickly trotted to follow.
As a sub-server, Mashu was much stronger than Gudazi and easily caught up with Gudazi.
Picture: "Gudazi", location: "Images/1678679310-100352746-110059628.jpg"
After approaching the holy city, they all stopped and stared at the city blankly.
The capital of Arthur’s dynasty—the holy city of Camelot!
That row of towering walls can almost break through the sky, with a huge city wall nearly 150 feet high, stretching straight for dozens of kilometers.
On the huge and thick city wall, the fine and complicated defensive magic runes fanned the lavender shimmer, exuding a breathtaking and huge coercion.
In front of the main city gate, which is built with holy white Almistone and has a Gothic spiers, there are hundreds of solemn knights who are as dense as ant colonies divided into hundreds to maintain vigilance outside the city.
The object of the warning was the considerable refugee tent facilities set up around the city walls on both sides of the main entrance.
All the refugees gathered outside the city of Camelot came to participate in the "Holy Ba", and the so-called "Holy Ba" meant that those who failed in the selection would definitely be killed.
However, because there is no living person to pass on the news, there must be a continuous flow of refugees to participate in this "Sacred Bar", which is a line between the real heaven and hell.
Chapter 5 Tristan’s report, the king’s strangeness
Gudazi and the others still didn't know what "Shengba" meant, so they were curiously talking to the refugees.
"'Shengba'...what will it look like? I'm really curious."
Seeing them like this, Shirou told them the truth.
"Hey, it's actually like this!?"
Gudazi was surprised, and Ma Xiu made a suggestion.
"Should we remind everyone?"
Shirou nodded indifferently.
"You can try."
Gudazi and Ma Xiu told the refugees the truth, but in the end no one believed it.
Looking at the people still waiting for "Shengba", both Gudazi and Ma Xiu were a little puzzled.
Da Vinci had already seen the reason and explained to them: "For these refugees, the Holy City is the last way to survive. Regardless of whether this is the truth or not, they have no choice."
"But, but..."
Matthew wanted to say something more, but didn't know how to say it.
"There is no need to waste your time on this kind of thing, just follow them to the "Holy Bar"." Shirou said.
Gudazi also nodded.
"Since everyone doesn't believe the truth, we can only protect everyone during the 'Shengba'."
"oh, I understand now."
Mashu clenched the shield in his hand and answered with a firm look.
Following the footsteps of the refugees, they entered the Holy City together and participated in the "Holy Ba" with them.
……
The steel boots stepped on the floor, echoing clearly in the huge palace.
The other four knights were busy with other tasks. Only the king on the highest throne was still sitting there, watching the arrival of the knights calmly.
"Mr. Tristan, do you have something to report?"
"Yes, my king."
Tristan quickly knelt down on one knee to perform the knight's salute and said in a respectful tone.
"During my mission, I met the master of Chaldea and a man who called himself Orihara Shirou. He was quite powerful. I am not an opponent, so I had to come back first and inform the king about this."
"Shiro Orihara..."
The king on the throne was full of divinity and his shining yellow-green pupils trembled slightly, then he tilted his head and closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
Picture: "Wang", location: "Images/1678782645-100352746-110063423.jpg"
Suddenly, her brows frowned, and her thin lips trembled slightly, as if she was holding back or having a nightmare.
This is the first time that King Tristan has shown such an attitude since King Tristan summoned him to the world.
"Wang, what's wrong with you?"
Tristan asked with concern.
When the Lion King heard this, he just shook his head slightly, and his glazed eyes returned to the state of Gujing Wubo again, seeming to suppress the strangeness just now.
Just now, the moment she heard that name, her heartbeat accelerated for a moment, and even she herself didn't know why.
"...No problem, you can go and assist Gao Wenqing in holding the "Holy Ceremony"."
Upon hearing the king's order, the knight immediately saluted.
"As ordered!"
……
As the city gate opened, the refugees entered the city of Camelot one after another under the guard of the knights.
Among the group of knights, the crimson Pendragon Red Dragon Head flag fluttering in the wind was standing high.
The dark night drives away the light, and it's already evening.
Although the clothes of Shirou and his party mixed in the crowd were a bit strange compared to those around them, due to Shirou's deliberate concealment, the knights did not notice anything unusual.
Da Vinci, who was following the crowd, looked at the stairs leading to the majestic city in front of him and whispered with thoughtful eyes.
"There are so many people. If a battle really starts, it will be difficult to protect them all..."
Shirou patted Da Vinci on the shoulder, signaling her to relax.
"Just leave it to me."
Da Vinci exhaled and showed a beautiful smile: "Since you said so, I can only believe you."
Under the guidance of the solemn knights as if they were driving livestock, the dense crowd quickly gathered in a huge circular square.
And standing in front of the closed door leading to that ideal city, stood a special knight.
His blond hair, as brilliant as the sun, was shining in the moonlight.
This is the 'Knight of the Sun' who is as famous as Lancelot, the strongest 'Knight of the Lake' under King Arthur - Gawain!
Gawain glanced seriously at the refugees gathered in the circular square.
"Welcome... to the contestants who are participating in the "Holy Ba", I am a member of the Knights of the Round Table, Gawain."
When the crowd heard the name of the Knights of the Round Table, they couldn't help but cheer, and Gawain continued.
