Simultaneously traversing from Type-Moon

He originally thought he could easily defeat his opponent, so he didn't move Ryunosuke to a safe place beforehand.

But he didn't expect his opponent to be so difficult to deal with, with a wide variety of attack methods and an attack intensity far exceeding that of modern magicians, leaving him somewhat overwhelmed.

He glanced at Ryunosuke beside him and noticed that Ryunosuke's face had turned deathly pale.

Ryunosuke knew that his life force had been drained, and even if he rushed to the hospital for a blood transfusion immediately, it would be too late.

So he held on to his last breath and smiled at Gildre, saying, "Lord Bluebeard, I suddenly understand the true meaning of life. It turns out that death is so close to me. How wonderful. Lord Bluebeard, you must also find what you are looking for."

Then, Ryunosuke died with a snap.

Chapter 37 Du Can VS Gildre

"Ryunosuke!"

Gildre called out to his best friend, but there was no response.

Gildre immediately glared angrily at Du Can, his eyes wide open, much bigger than his previous dead fish eyes, as if his eyeballs were about to completely pop out of their sockets.

"How dare you murder my dearest friend! I'll tie you to a cross and burn you alive! I'll make you regret all the sins you've committed!"

Gildre was so enraged that he wanted to devour people. He was about to summon the highest-ranking sea monster recorded in the "Snail Annihilation City Text" written on human skin, the "Great Sea Monster".

At this moment, Du Can waved his hand.

"Wait a minute, don't you want to save your dear friend? He has only lost all his blood, but he's not dead yet. If you transfuse the blood I have into him, he might still have a chance to live. Are you going to ruin his last chance at life?"

Upon hearing this, Gildre immediately checked Ryunosuke's life force and discovered that although he was on the verge of death, he was still alive.

No wonder he's Gillespie's best friend; his vitality is even stronger than a cockroach.

“As soon as I get these children out of here, I’ll return this blood to him immediately.”

Du Can showed the blood sphere floating in his hand.

He glanced at the bewildered children behind him. Gildre would never let him, the one who had hurt his best friend, go, but he should be able to let these children go.

Gildre looked at the blood sphere in Du Can's hand and then said, "If I release those children, will you return Ryunosuke's blood to him?"

"But I refuse!"

"Ryunosuke has already completed his art with his life, and I absolutely cannot destroy the greatest art that his life constitutes!"

"As for you, and those children, let them all become sacrifices to the art I have created!"

Gildre refused Du Can's conditions, believing that even if Ryunosuke were to lose his life now, it would be a worthy death.

He raised the book in human skin high and shouted, "Let you, a mere modern magician, witness the great magic bestowed upon me by my other dear friend, François, the [Preliti's Spellbook of the City of Desolation]!"

In an instant, boundless magic gathered on the human skin book in his hand, and a terrifying change began to occur.

Upon witnessing this scene, Du Can couldn't help but click his tongue in disapproval.

He knew that the relationship between Master and Servant was similar to that between Magician and Familiar; theoretically, if the Master was killed, the Servant would also disappear.

Aside from archers who possess the inherent skill "Self-Dealing," allowing them to survive for a period after their master's death, there are theoretically no other exceptions.

However, some followers do not adhere to this theoretical principle.

Although Ryunosuke is not dead yet, he is practically dead and cannot provide Gildre with enough magic power necessary for his existence.

However, the magicians who can cause trouble in the Holy Grail War are somewhat special and may not necessarily follow this rule.

Take Gilles de Rais for example. Even though his Master can no longer provide him with magical energy, he can still exist and even activate Noble Phantasms that consume a huge amount of magical energy.

"Fortunately, I still have a backup plan."

Du Can also began to play his trump card.

The Book of the City of Annihilation in Gildre's hand was glowing. It was a great magical artifact containing a magic furnace, the secrets of alchemy given to him by his close friend François Plelatti, and the core that allowed him to access beings greater than gods.

He had sacrificed many lives before this, dedicating himself to a great being.

Now, he too must sacrifice everything to please the great being and summon a wisp of its power.

"Come forth, [Great Sea Demon]!"

Infinite magic converged here, and a giant sea monster appeared.

It was a monster that looked like a giant squid, tens of meters tall, like a monster that had run off from the Ultraman movie set next door.

As soon as it emerged, it instantly collapsed the structures of many houses next to it, killing and injuring countless people.

Du Can used the roots of the Blue Silver Grass to protect the children and lead them to a safer place.

Looking at the colossal figure that appeared in the city like a moving natural disaster, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

"So big? I wonder if this newly developed technique can take him down."

Although he had a premonition that Gildre could summon enormous sea monsters, he didn't expect them to be this big.

Such a large size would require a magical beast of at least Dou Wang level to possess on the Dou Qi Continent, and on the Douluo Continent, it would require a soul beast that is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years old.

Given his current level of Battle Master and Soul Venerable, he should, by all accounts, be completely unfit to touch these things.

But that's because he doesn't play by the rules at all.

"I'll show you what I'm capable of!"

The 108 magic circuits in Du Can's body were shining brightly, an extreme flash of light. The magic power that was already flowing like a highway was now as fast as lightning and as surging as a flood.

It was as if endless magical power had been generated within his body.

Gildre's infinite magic power comes from the magic furnace of the Silithid City Bible in his hand, and from the countless lives sacrificed before.

Du Can's seemingly inexhaustible magical power now comes from the powerful magical power that bursts forth from forcibly extracting his own life force.

Magic is essentially composed of life force, so by simply draining one's own life force, one can extract an immense amount of magic.

What Du Can is doing now is turning almost all of his life force into fuel, transforming it into a one-time ultimate magic.

The other side has already started playing with their lives on the line, so it seems a bit inappropriate not to join in.

His vitality is far stronger than that of ordinary magicians, and the amount of magic he extracts is naturally much greater, as if it has no end.

His body was withering, his physical strength was waning, and his vitality was declining, but the aura he possessed was growing stronger and stronger.

"That's not enough, we need more."

Du Can sensed the magic power contained within his body. He had enough propellant, but he still lacked a bullet with sufficient hardness.

He continued to burn, this time transforming the concepts of Battle Cyclone and Blue Silver Grass into projectiles for loading.

In the world of magic, there is a concept called "fantasy collapse," which is based on the idea of ​​turning a mysterious concept into a one-time explosive that can unleash unparalleled power.

Du Can drew inspiration from the concepts of Fantasy Collapse and the gunpowder magician he had encountered before. What he was doing now was to transform the two concepts he possessed into a warhead and almost all of his life force into propellant, forming a super cannonball.

This is even more intense than the Heavenly Fire Three Transformations plus the Exploding Ring. After all, while using such a move will weaken you, it won't be fatal.

After using this move, it's uncertain whether the opponent will die or not; he'll certainly be on the verge of death.

"Come on! Take this!"

"【Blue Silver Burning Cannon】!"

Chapter 38 Roasted Sea Monster

In Fuyuki City, a city plagued by disasters, a gigantic squid of enormous size is now relentlessly crushing everything in its path.

That was a summoned monster called the Great Sea Demon, Gildrei's trump card.

If it appears at sea, it can create towering waves. However, even when it appears on land or in a city, it still exerts destructive power no less than that of the monsters in the Ultraman movies.

It swept everything away, completely destroying the buildings in many cities.

However, it is not that no one can stop it. In the timeline, the Star Sword can kill it, and the King's Treasury must also contain the powerful force to destroy it.

However, neither of them are currently on site. Perhaps some Servants and Masters are on their way here, but there is no sign of them at all.

After all, in theory, Servants don't fight during the day; they only fight in deserted places late at night.

No one would have expected that a Magician-class Servant would dare to cause such a commotion in the city during broad daylight.

This completely violates the principle that mystery should be kept hidden.

Since someone has already violated the principles, Du Can is no longer going to hide it.

He raised his right hand, making a gun shape with his hand, extended his index finger, and a tiny point of light formed at the tip of his finger.

It was a singularity formed as if by light.

Du Can pointed the gun firmly at the head of the Great Sea Demon, whose core, Gildre himself, was located there.

fire!

[Blue Silver Burning Cannon]!

Without a sound, only a streak of light flashed, and that tiny singularity of light was launched.

The moment it was launched, the point of light reached the head of the giant sea monster.

Then, the light exploded.

A dazzling light covered everything.

Gildre, who was inside the Great Sea Demon, seemed to see endless light before his eyes.

"What is this? Light! Shining like the armor on Joan of Arc. Joan of Arc! Joan of Arc! Joan of Arc—!"

In the endless light, he vanished into nothingness.

Most of the sea demon's head was covered by endless light and dissolved into boundless light.

However, even with such severe injuries, the sea monster did not die, or at least not completely; flesh was slowly growing back from its wounds.

As long as its magic power is not exhausted, it is theoretically immortal.

It can quickly regenerate through magic. Unless someone can destroy its entire body at once with a powerful artifact, it can grow back with magic even if only a piece of flesh is left.

Although Du Can's [Blue Silver Burning Cannon] damaged its head, and possibly even its core, killing Gildre and cutting off its magic supply, it was still able to survive for a while due to the powerful magic it retained.

Even a half-dead sea monster can still cause enormous damage to the city.

The mere movement of the remaining giant squid body caused an earthquake-like tremor.
