FATE: Target of Grand Master

"I don't know much about the 'Seven Loving Friends' either. Apart from this guy who's the most outspoken, the others are actually quite low-key and protect their information well. I'll continue to infiltrate them and let you know as soon as I get any information, as a way of repaying the favor I did for you earlier."

Xia Yan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to worry too much, and then walked to the side, ready to watch the show that was about to begin.

Morgan, of course, understood perfectly and released Oliver from his control.

Oliver's pupils gradually cleared, and he was even more surprised when he saw that the person in front of him had changed from Xia Yan to Hu Xia.

"Hu Xia, at most I was negligent in that matter; it's not a capital offense!"

Faced with Oliver's sophistry, Hu Xia, who always enjoyed teasing and mocking others, simply said, "Oh? You know my real name. It seems the 'information broker' has told you all my information."

Oliver immediately realized he had let something slip and hurriedly explained, "That was all what the 'information broker' made me do; I had no right to refuse."

"Really? What else did that 'information broker' tell you?"

Oliver remained silent when Hu Xia wanted to ask about the "information brokers".

"You have no chance of beating that guy. Even with that cheater 'Xia Yan' by your side, it's not enough."

"I'm asking you for information, not your thoughts."

Hu Xia's tone grew increasingly cold.

"I cannot say. If I do, I will die."

"You'll die even if you don't tell."

Faced with Hu Xia's threat, Oliver revealed a calm smile.

"Yes. To speak out is to die, to remain silent is also to die, so why should I speak out?"

Hu Xia remained silent.

She knew she couldn't let him leave alive today, and both sides were aware of that, so it was virtually impossible for her to get any information out of Oliver.

Pfft!

Without warning, Oliver's abdomen was stabbed through, and blood began to gush from the wound.

"Murasaki Shikibu, please use a healing spell on him. Also, cast a regeneration-accelerating spell on him."

Artoria Alter (Lancer) gave an instruction to the writer beside her, clearly indicating that she was the one who had just made the move.

"Ah! Okay."

Murasaki Shikibu immediately used Yin-Yang techniques to stop Oliver's bleeding.

pain!

It hurts so much!

Enduring excruciating pain, Oliver pleaded with Hu Xia, "Hu Xia, please, please let me go. Weren't you also 'boxed up' by that guy when you joined? Me too. I simply couldn't disobey him, and..."

Oliver hesitated for a moment, then said as if he had made up his mind, "Moreover, that thing even has the authority to change the rules. As long as it's in this Master Trial, it can't possibly lose."

Hu Xia remained silent in response to Oliver's pleas for mercy.

Five minutes passed in silence before Hu Xia spoke softly.

"Didn't Zhong Muqing ask you for the same thing back then? And what did you do?"

Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, Oliver hardened his heart and revealed a ferocious smile.

"That's right. The woman was crying and begging us to spare her life. She even took off her clothes. We were just satisfying her."

Hu Xia knew that what Oliver said was not true, and Oliver knew it even better, but knowing that he was going to die today, he simply wanted to disgust Hu Xia one last time before he died.

Click!

Artoria Alter (Lancer) kicked out and broke Oliver's left thigh.

"ah!!!"

Oliver immediately screamed in pain, but Zenobia was already holding him, preventing him from making the instinctive movement of arching his body to relieve the pain.

Looking at Oliver's disheveled appearance, Hu Xia felt less than pleased; instead, he felt a pang of sadness at the loss of his friend.

Artoria Alter (Lancer) gently patted Hu Xia on the shoulder and said, "Don't push yourself. I'll give this guy the punishment he deserves."

Hu Xia let out a long breath, then shook his head slightly.

"No, as her friend, I must witness the end of her enemy for her. This is the last thing I can do for her."

After hearing Hu Xia's words, Artoria Altera (Lancer) simply said, "There might be some bloodshed later. If you can't stand it, Murasaki Shikibu can give you a bag."

After saying that, Artoria Altera (Lancer) asked Zenobi for a sword and plunged it into Oliver's hand, pinning him to the ground.

"ah!!!"

As if she hadn't heard Oliver's screams, Artoria Alter (Lancer) pierced Oliver's other hand with Zenobi's spear.

"ah!!!"

Oliver was now speechless except for screaming.

He only wanted those who were torturing him to give him a quick death, but that was impossible. So he began to pray that his body would die as soon as possible, but under the combined effects of Murasaki Shikibu's treatment and the accelerated regeneration technique, his body continued to hold on.

"I've always been curious about how many weapons can be stuck in a person's body and they still survive. Today, let me conduct an experiment."

Artoria Alter (Lancer) suddenly had another long sword in her hand.

Pfft!

After he finished speaking, the long knife pierced Oliver's side abdomen.

Then came another series of screams.

Oliver's screams even affected Cú Chulainn Alter and Katniss, who were fighting nearby.

The two lost interest halfway through the fight, put away their weapons, and returned to their respective masters.

Thus, in the endless cycle of being stabbed by weapons and screaming in agony, Oliver's life gradually slipped away until he finally died.

Seeing Oliver impaled like a hedgehog, Hu Xia walked up to him, kicked his corpse hard, and walked away without looking back.

"Are you alright?"

Seeing Hu Xia, whose complexion wasn't good, approaching, Xia Yan still offered a slightly concerned question.

"I'm fine, it's not the first time anyway. But you, you can still be so calm after seeing all this, your tolerance is much higher than I thought."

Xia Yan smiled. The scenes he saw in his dreams were far more bloody than this, so this small scene no longer bothered him much.

"Alright. Everything's over, so I'll head back now. That army of cloned Servants is still advancing on my territory."

Xia Yan stood up, preparing to leave.

"Wait a minute, Xia Yan. You've seen Oliver's phone, so you should know that this army of cloned Servants is all the work of 'information brokers.' Aren't you curious about how it can have so much magical power?"

Do you know why?

Xia Yan's interest was piqued by Hu Xia.

"I don't know. But I can look into it for you. I'm still in that organization, so I can get you more firsthand information."

"So, what's the price?"

Hu Xia didn't laugh at Xia Yan's joke this time, but said seriously, "Oliver let something slip: the 'information broker' has the authority to rewrite the rules. If that's the case, I alone can't defeat it, so..."

"I'm joining."

Before Hu Xia could finish speaking, Xia Yan readily agreed.
