But in the next moment, an equally countless crimson spears appeared out of thin air, completely intercepting all the magic cannons.

"Then, I'll take charge of breaking through the stairs head-on."

As countless stone soldiers and golems filed out from the mountain gate, the purple-clad girl (?) struck a pose with a blank expression.

"Hopefully, there will be a great battle."

Then, the war began.

Chapter 166 The Emperor's Name is the Conqueror

"Gae Bolg Alternative: Piercing Death's Spear!"

The crimson spear, like a shooting star defying the tide, shattered all the stone soldiers and golems blocking its path in the blink of an eye.

"charge!"

The road had been opened, and the interior of the temple had been completely disrupted by the conquerors who had gone ahead. El-Melloi immediately issued orders.

If we disregard the sky, there is only one staircase leading to Ryudoji Temple, and going up from there is a rather unfavorable fighting situation. If possible, it would be best to break through this path in a lightning speed.

It should be noted that the battle inside the temple would likely be even more difficult, so it's unwise to waste too much magic power and stamina on this staircase.

────────────────────────────────

"To launch an attack at this time?"

Sitting on the roof of the temple, Orpheus swung his little feet and looked at the stone guards inside the Iskandar Monastery.

In this era, there was not much magic material available, so most of the puppets could only be made from these fragile stone figures.

Although there are high-level puppets from the King's Treasury, the opponents are all high-level combatants. Since the purpose is to use them as consumables, the stone soldiers are enough.

On another note, aren't you worried that no one will be home since you're here so early?

With a nonchalant attitude and an unimportant mindset, Orpheus activated the spell for the battleground.

"This is?!"

Suddenly, the steps beneath their feet became smooth and difficult to walk on, rising and falling like hills. At the same time, hundreds of stone spears leaped high from the temple and fell upon the group.

"Lord Chaldeas!"

The silver-white city walls instantly unfolded, blocking this wave of attacks.

"Please move forward as quickly as possible!"

At the same time, she also defended against the incoming magic cannon, and the shield-wielding knight girl shouted to the crowd behind her.

"..."

One by one, the mechanisms were dismantled at an extremely fast pace, but the dragon goddess girl's face remained unmoved.

The original purpose of this magical barrier was to hold back a small number of Servants. Now that it is being attacked by so many of them, it is only natural that it will be easily defeated.

"Ah la la la la la la!!!"

With a thunderous roar, the Divine Wheel broke through the last layer of stone soldiers' formation and arrived before Orpheus.

"Well, little girl, your prized territory has been completely breached, hasn't it?"

Iskandar, holding a longsword, grinned and showed his teeth.

"It's nothing, just something I made on the spur of the moment."

The Chaldean Servants followed from behind, and Orpheus, now alone in the entire camp, smiled and lightly landed on the ground from the roof.

"So, are these all the Servants? What about the extra ones?"

A purple-haired girl wielding twin pistols, a handsome knight in silver armor, a red archer who had fought before, another archer with a resolute face, and... a tall swordsman exuding the aura of dragon blood?

It seems to be targeting their own lineup to some extent...

“We’ve arrived, Orpheus.”

The Master Girl's declaration seemed to herald the start of a direct battle.

Looking at the girl's determined face, Orpheus nodded.

"Then let's go."

"Qimen Dunjia, Eight Gates Golden Lock, unfold!"

Eight enormous stone pillars appeared out of thin air, surrounding everyone.

But before anything could happen, Orpheus stomped heavily on the ground.

"Well!"

The special inscriptions spread out on the ground and extended to the stone pillars. The next moment, the eight stone pillars slowly turned into dust and dissipated, and El-Melloi also spat out a mouthful of blood.

"I told you, I'm serious this time."

The sky was bathed in gold, and countless Noble Phantasms were unleashed, displaying their brilliance.

"Hey, I can't let you have the chance to strike first."

Like a shooting star, the high-speed arrow pierced the air and struck the location where Orpheus was.

Then, the ground shattered.

The floor of Ryudoji Temple was shattered into pieces by the violent impact, and the powerful shockwave engulfed everything around it.

But it's meaningless.

The next moment, a shockwave of magic erupted, engulfing the arrow's impact and blasting away all the smoke and dust that had enveloped it.

With just the most rudimentary release of magic, the Dragon God's girl completely withstood the full force of Arash's shot from the great hero of the East.

"Now, let's face the first trial!"

Without holding back, far exceeding previous numbers, hundreds of 'doors' roared as they relentlessly unleashed weapons from the King's Treasury.

"I see. Seeing it up close, it is indeed an unimaginable strength. Facing such an enemy, there is no reason not to cooperate with others... But in terms of the number of weapons, I will not lag behind."

More crimson spears appeared out of thin air, clashing with the weapons in the treasury.

Although there is a slight difference in quality, the quantity can make up for it and break through the treasure vault's blockade, not to mention...

"Didn't expect to face this kind of scene again..."

The red archer sighed softly, and countless different kinds of 'swords' appeared, just like the spears from before, and they also surrounded and enveloped Orpheus.

"Arrrrrrrr!!!"

The knight in black armor charged directly into the dense rain of Noble Phantasms, skillfully grabbing and wielding increasingly powerful weapons as he relentlessly closed in on Orpheus.

"..."

With his own treasure trove overshadowed, Orpheus's smile only grew wider.

"Are they all exceptionally skilled warriors? Since the Hundred Gates method is ineffective..."

"Then let's attack with a thousand gates!"

The sky turned completely golden.

But at that moment, a dazzling light, unlike that of the treasure vault, made Orpheus feel slightly blinded.

That was the radiance of the sun.

“It is not the way of a knight to bully the few with the many, but since the King and Master have given such an order, and you are not someone to be underestimated…”

Standing under the blazing sun, the knight of the sun was enveloped in a surge of scorching magic.

"I am unworthy to offer my humble opinion on your swordsmanship!"

Wielding the Radiant Sword, Gawain, also braving the rain of Noble Phantasms, charged towards Orpheus.

With the added power of a saint, and three times the normal form's fighting strength under the sun, Gawain's current strength is even slightly superior to Lancelot in his berserk state!

And so, the two knights actually withstood the attacks of Thousand Gates' Noble Phantasm and fought their way to Orpheus.

At the same time, accompanied by the sound of armor running across the tiles, the two knight princesses also circled around from the roof of Ryudou Temple to Orpheus's side.

The next moment, golden ripples spread out directly above them, and a rain of magical artifacts fell heavily on the four knights.

But at that moment, the scene suddenly changed.

Ryudoji Temple, which had been reduced to ruins within minutes of the start of the battle, completely disappeared, replaced by rolling yellow sand.

"This is?"

Artoria, who had finally managed to rush to Orpheus's side only to be pulled back to her original position, looked at the scene behind her in surprise.

Tens of thousands of soldiers, fully armed, stood behind Iskandar, who was riding in a tank.

"Hahaha, the narrow terrain seems to be too advantageous for Archer, so I had to change the battlefield slightly."

"It's a Reality Barrier?"

Waver, who didn't even know his own Servant's Noble Phantasm, stared at this scene with his mouth agape.

"That's right, the barrier that was once supported by the warriors who are still loyal to me, now that I have become a heroic spirit, and the battlefields where my army and Yu Wushuang once fought together! The bond with them is my most precious treasure, my kingly way, and my strongest Noble Phantasm—Ionian Hetairoi!"

In the name of conquest, praising the domineering king, he unleashed his most powerful Noble Phantasm at this moment.

"Well, King of Heroes? How will you deal with such a kingly path?"

Iskandar issued his challenge to the girl who was the dragon god.

Chapter 167 The King's Name is Hero King

El-Melloi II looked at the tens of thousands of troops surrounding him with some emotion.

I never imagined I'd see such a scene again.

But this time, I can help him too...

"The King's military might?"

Dressed in a long black robe, Orpheus surveyed the inherent barrier of the desert plain.

"So, this is a barrier that was supported by Iskandar and the soldiers together. Well then, it is indeed different."
