FATE: Target of Grand Master

Zhang Liao's treasure weapon naturally comes from the story of how he defended Hefei and repelled Sun Quan's army of 100,000 with only 800 cavalry. His fame is widespread in China.

Thanks to this, Zhang Liao's Noble Phantasm has a special effect: the more enemies his side faces, the stronger the effect of the Noble Phantasm becomes, but at the same time, the higher the mana consumption of the Noble Phantasm will be.

Therefore, Zhang Liao needs to balance the power and mana consumption when using his Noble Phantasm.

At this point, the enemy's monster army numbered at least tens of thousands, which was exactly the range within which Zhang Liao's Noble Phantasm could exert its best effect.

Standing on the north wall, Xia Yan saw a wave of cavalry charging towards the monster army. Their momentum as they ran formed a barrier with real power, smashing the monsters that blocked their path into pieces, tearing a hole in the monster tide like a dump truck.

Cú Chulainn Alter and Musashi charged into the monster horde and began their decapitation strikes against specific individuals.

To facilitate the transfer of Xia Yan's two followers, Zhang Liao charged back and forth several times, scattering the vanguard of the entire monster army.

"Whoosh~ We can't let Wen Yuan steal all the limelight."

After slaying more than twenty magical beasts, Red Hare seemed to tire of this inefficient way of killing enemies and activated its Noble Phantasm.

"Noble Phantasm! Pseudo-God of War's Five Weapons!"

Red Hare took out a giant bow, used its giant spear as an arrow, and imitated Lu Bu's shooting of the halberd at the gate. It drew the bow, nocked an arrow, and shot the giant spear at the charging monsters.

boom!

The giant spear, with its immense power, annihilated all enemies in a straight line like a rocket, leaving a huge crater in the ground where it passed.

"Whoosh~ How about that! This is the power of my Flying General Lü Bu! Hahahaha."

Red Hare stood with its hands on its hips, head thrown back, laughing wildly, its arrogance boundless.

"It looks really cool, but then it'll be without a weapon, won't it?"

Euryale didn't understand why Red Hare would shoot its weapon.

"Don't panic. That beast may be a bit arrogant, but he's not stupid."

Lu Bu pointed at Chen Gong from the side.

Then Chen Gong produced another identical giant spear from somewhere and threw it off the north wall.

The Red Hare, which had been laughing wildly, seemed to have eyes in the top of its head and steadily caught the giant spear, then resumed the battle.

"That beast, it actually managed to pull it off."

Although he still called it "bastard" and "bastard," Lü Bu still acknowledged Red Hare's performance.

Looking further afield, Cú Chulainn Alter and Musashi had already worked together to kill three special individuals. As two people who had ventured deep into enemy territory alone, Cú Chulainn Alter and Musashi both understood that success rate and survival rate were more important than the speed of killing.

At the same time, Zhang Liao also returned to the bottom of the north wall after sprinting back and forth several times.

"military adviser!"

Zhang Liao shouted upwards.

"The enemies further away are now in your hands."

"no problem."

Chen Gong pushed up his reflective glasses, unable to suppress his excitement as he trembled.

Finally, he finally had the chance to use his Noble Phantasm here.

Chen Gong's Noble Phantasm is called "Pincer Attack," a powerful yet bizarre weapon.

It requires sacrificing teammates in exchange for extremely large-scale damage output, which is essentially using other people's lives to release a meteor. In nature, it is utterly despicable.

Therefore, unless facing a monster horde or a large army, Chen Gong is usually strictly forbidden from using Noble Phantasms by Diao Yunshang and Lu Bu. In fact, before Diao Yunshang summoned Zhang Liao, Chen Gong was completely forbidden from using Noble Phantasms, since none of Diao Yunshang's Servants had Guts that Chen Gong could use.

Fortunately, his frustrating situation finally improved after meeting Zhang Liao.

Chen Gong's Noble Phantasm requires teammates to be sacrificed, but it doesn't say that they have to be Servants. Even familiars summoned by Servants are not impossible as long as they reach a certain strength. It's just a matter of how powerful they are.

Therefore, at this moment, in Chen Gong's eyes, Zhang Liao's eight hundred cavalrymen were like eight hundred cannonballs, which would surely be fired to their hearts' content!

Without the slightest hesitation, Chen Gong gathered his magic power, took out the bamboo slip and placed it in front of him. Then, with the enhancement of the magic power spell, he began his performance.

Where should I aim for my first shot?

Chen Gong took out a white, metallic longbow, nocked an arrow, and fired it at the large number of demonic beasts charging towards him from afar.

"This is a necessary sacrifice. Noble Phantasm! Engage in a pincer movement!"

Whoosh!

The arrow was fired and accurately hit a group of magical beasts in the distance, killing seven or eight of them on the spot and injuring more than ten others.

At the same time, one of the cavalrymen in Zhang Liao's treasure fell silently, turning into spiritual particles and dissipating.

"Tch, it's true that non-Servants are less powerful. But considering the large quantity and plenty to fill you up, I'll let it go for now."

As Chen Gong muttered to himself, he drew his bow and shot a second arrow, and another monster fell victim to it.

Immediately afterwards, the third, fourth, and fifth arrows followed. Chen Gong, like a humanoid automatic cannon, kept repeating the cycle of drawing his bow and nocking arrows, and then drawing his bow and nocking arrows again. Countless craters appeared on the open plain outside the north wall, and the flat ground became uneven and pitted.

"Hahaha, again!"

"Again!"

"Again!"

Seeing that Zhang Liao's cavalry had been reduced by half, Chen Gong continued his attack tirelessly. Even Diao Yunshang, who usually communicated with him the most, was a little embarrassed and explained to Xia Yan beside her, "The strategist is not usually like this."

"Yes, I understand. Everyone has moments of excitement."

For a moment, Chen Gong's concentrated output was no less than the barrage of divine seals fired by the North Wall City Defense, which was especially noticeable in mid-air.

Kingu, already feeling suffocated by Morgan's smugness, was enraged by this scene. He shouted at somewhere, "Release your shadow servants now!"

"Okay."

Xia Yan only heard a female voice respond, but could not discern its location. However, this was no longer the most critical issue. Countless shadow followers appeared on the north wall without warning and rushed towards Xia Yan and the others, who were located in the center.

At this moment, in the center of the north wall, which serves as the command center, there is only Lu Bu, who has not yet recovered his fighting strength; Euryale, whose small bow and arrow can barely buy some time; Chen Gong, whose magic power is somewhat depleted due to shooting too much; and Xia Yan and Diao Yunshang, two Masters whose fighting strength here can be ignored.

The enemy's timing in deploying the Shadow Servants was perfect; at this moment, the north wall was indeed Xia Yan's weakest point.

The soldiers, who were busy manipulating the divine seal to attack, were caught off guard by the sudden appearance of the shadow followers. The defensive fortifications on the north wall were instantly paralyzed, while Xia Yan and the others could only watch helplessly, because their combat strength was simply insufficient to launch an attack.

Faced with a massive force of Shadow Servants, Chen Gong, having regained his composure, drew two short swords and positioned himself on the left side of the group, while Euryale drew her bow and arrows and positioned herself on the right side.

The damage to the fortifications was irreversible, and they had no intention of defeating all the enemies. As long as they could hold off the two Masters for a while, the Servants they sent out would return in time.
