"Find a place where you can see the Berserker and provide support...at the very least, know that the Servant is there!"

hiss--

chi chi-

Boom!

Before Arash could even make a move, Berserker jumped out.

Four Death Apostles appeared around us, all of them high-level Death Apostles! Their combat power was comparable to that of Servants!

And now... four!

"Roar—————— (Let me test your strength!)" Berserker roared and slammed his halberd into the ground, facing the group with his bare hands.

"Does that guy really have no intelligence?" Arash stared wide-eyed at the scene.

"...It shouldn't be, but...that's Lu Bu after all. It's not impossible that he withstood the berserk state and possessed the most basic willpower. But, that should be all there is to it."

boom----

next moment.

The four Dead Apostles clashed with the Berserker!

Even when facing four Servant-level Dead Apostles and their familiars with their bare hands, he held his own against them with all sorts of moves!

Just then—

Time stopped.

"THEWORLD! Time has stopped—"

——ToBeContinued

Chapter 224 The Evil Plan

time...

It treats everyone fairly and flows steadily.

It will not change because of anyone's personal wishes.

That's how it should be.

But... a being has appeared in this world capable of stopping time—

One second passed—

DIO emerged from the broken room.

Six seconds —

This is the amount of time he can stop right now. For an ordinary person, it might not be enough, but for DIO right now, it's enough to do a lot of things. Running a hundred meters or so is a piece of cake for him.

Originally, he could only stop for five seconds when he first came into this world, but now... after consuming the blood of countless people and completely taking control of this body.

He can now stop for six seconds... If it weren't for the fact that his phantom's characteristics are somewhat different from those of the real Servants in this world, he would probably have a stop time of about twelve seconds by now.

However, even so, it's enough!

Six seconds is more than enough!

Two seconds have passed—

DIO looked at Berserker, who was only a dozen meters away from the room he had just left. Like the other Dead Apostles, Berserker had stopped moving. DIO walked up to him, clenched his fist, and said, "Three seconds have passed—!"

"Die, enemy Berserker!!!"

DIO laughed loudly, and The World, who had been charging up for three seconds, punched Berserker in the chest!

His world's strength is A-rank, and there are very few heroic spirits who can withstand this attack!

If Berserker had self-awareness and could move now, he would definitely be able to withstand it. After all... Berserker's strength and durability are both A+!

*Pfft*

Four seconds have passed—

Look at Lu Bu, pierced through by the world's fist.

DIO, in high spirits, withdrew his fist: "Thus, the first loser of the Holy Grail War has appeared..."

"One second countdown—"

DIO ran toward the broken house.

Willpower hid in the shadows to avoid being seen, then said, "Zero seconds, time begins to flow—"

*Pfft*

"Roar—!!!" Lu Bu roared, and with a flick of his wrist, the halberd that had been on the ground flew into his hand without hesitation! He swung it with all his might in all directions—

The four high-ranking Dead Apostles and their familiars were all cut in half at the waist!

"Oh... still alive?" DIO was somewhat relieved, relieved that he had retreated immediately, otherwise... he didn't want to be seriously injured before achieving his goal—reaching heaven.

The real battle will begin on the day I ascend to heaven; until then, I should conserve my energy!

However, before that, we need to intimidate others so they won't dare to come over without permission...

The death of this Berserker is the best sacrifice!

next moment--

The severed Dead Apostles stood up again, their injuries fully healed. Perhaps their actual combat strength was only at the level of second- or third-rate Servants, while Lu Bu, a Berserker-class Servant, was undoubtedly a top-tier Servant.

but--

If we're talking about immortality, how many can compare to these Dead Apostles?

Perhaps... only DIO and the Undead King remain.

but--

Despite being pierced, Lü Bu showed no signs of fatigue and continued to wildly swing his halberd.

Just as DIO was about to stop time again and smash Lu Bu's head.

far away--

Several arrows, like missiles, shot towards us.

"Boom boom boom—"

Arash kept drawing his bow and shooting arrows—

At the same time, he shouted loudly, "Berserker buddy, retreat!"

"Roar—(You wait, next time I will surely kill you!)" Berserker roared...and ran away!

Archer breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing this.

"Archer, did you see that? How exactly did Berserker get injured?"

“No, I didn’t see it.” Archer shook his head. “Could it be some kind of special ability of those Dead Apostles?”

"...I don't know. Let's give it to Lord Barthezmello when Berserker returns."

On the other side, DIO smiled slightly as he watched the Berserker run away: "Well done, as expected of a Servant. Even with his chest pierced, he won't die... But that's enough. The initial goal wasn't to kill him. It's enough to make them back down and not cause trouble for the next three days."

That's why he prevented the four high-ranking Death Apostles from using their full strength...

It's important to know that some of them possess divine armor, some have Reality Marbles, some have high-level Mystic Eyes, and some even possess near-absolute immortality...

These...were not used at all in this battle.

Because it's unnecessary!

Three more days until he begins to execute his plan... until all the right conditions are met—

When he finally takes action... he will inevitably encounter enormous obstacles!

That's when we'll truly give it our all... that's when we'll truly fight with everything we have!

He will surely ascend to heaven and find eternal peace.

This is true even in this world—

That was his destiny, and... anyone who stood in his way would be crushed!

"Alright, come back." Dio spoke from the shadows, trying to avoid being seen. Now was not the time for him to reveal himself: "You have successfully completed your mission. Now you just need to wait patiently. It won't be long... We've already waited a year, and there are only three days left..."

"Yes, Lord DIO!"

......

"Hmph...hmph hmph hmph...hahahahahahaha————"

"Is it fun? Fighting."

“Ah, of course! Master.” Akart turned to look at Kurokawa Kazuya and said, “This is very interesting… really very interesting. That Saber isn’t even the strongest one in this Holy Grail War, is she? But even so, she has such great power! Amazing! Humans are truly… amazing!”

"I'm glad you find it interesting." Kurokawa Kazuya shrugged. "I find it interesting too... It's only the first day of the Holy Grail War... no, it's not even the first day yet, and this battle has already happened... But what I'm really concerned about is... what will happen to this city? Where will Cairo go from here?"

"Perhaps it will be like that London... that night in London was like hell."

Chapter 225 Berserker

"Hell...?"

“Yes, hell…” Alucard looked at the pedestrians in the distance… The once bustling Cairo was now gradually becoming deserted.

Even before the Holy Grail War began, the clashes between the three factions had already gradually made the city deserted.

Nobody's stupid, nobody's unaware...

This city has now become a battlefield.

No... the entire country is a battlefield. If you ask why... it can only be said that this country lacks the ability to defend itself against three parties entering its territory.
