Besides Darius's faction, Ariel's faction is undoubtedly also present at the moment.

Like Darius, Ariel was extremely nervous about the execution.

It can be said that the outcome of this execution will most likely directly determine the outcome of this battle for the throne and affect the survival of Ariel's faction.

She silently looked in the direction of Sauros.

Looking at the old man who was about to die but remained unwavering and steadfast as a rock, she gradually relaxed and silently made a decision in her heart: no matter what the outcome of this execution might be, she would accept it all.

"Well, it's about time. Let's begin the execution."

Darius seemed to be getting impatient, and he couldn't wait for the first prince, Gravel, to make the verdict.

After the execution was announced, the executioner quickly took the stage.

He slowly approached Sauros, expressionless, gripped the long sword in his hand, and pointed it at Sauros's neck, preparing to behead him.

At that moment, everyone present couldn't help but tense up.

Darius, in particular, looked around as if he were eagerly awaiting something to happen.

"Wow!"

Just as the executioner was about to carry out the execution, the ceiling of the hall was suddenly shattered by a powerful force, and a red-haired girl descended from the sky, charging in like a mad dog, kicking the executioner away.

"You are... Alice?!"

Sauros stared in disbelief at the tall woman in front of him, unable to reconcile her with his former temperamental granddaughter.

Alice didn't hesitate and said with a smile, "I've come to save you, Grandfather!"

"..."

Before the grandfather and grandson could share another moment of emotion, Darius in the stands couldn't contain his joy and shouted, "Quick! Take down this assassin!"

Chapter 352 Fierce Battle on the Execution Platform! Shirou Defeats the Heroic Spirit Emiya!

The moment Darius gave the order, a group of knights in armor rushed out from all directions, as if to block Alice's path and completely shut down the only entrance.

Meanwhile, an even larger number of knights, clad in armor and wielding longswords, charged up from below the execution platform, attempting to capture Alice.

"Humph."

Seeing this blatantly pre-arranged setup, Alice remained unfazed, displaying a cold expression.

The next second, she silently drew the longsword from her waist and faced the knights who came to attack her.

"Snapped!"

The moment the Sword King displayed his power, the knights suddenly realized what a terrifying opponent they were facing.

Alice didn't even use the Blade of Light; she simply swung it casually, and the pressure emanating from it sent all the knights flying.

She showed no mercy throughout, moving like a ghost to directly confront the numerous knights, and as if by illusion, before anyone could even see her actions, she shattered all their weapons!

Seeing such an astonishing scene, the knights of the Kingdom Knights in the distance all showed tense expressions. Only at this moment did they realize what kind of being they were facing.

For a sword king, let alone dozens of knights, even if the number were several times greater, it would only be a matter of a few more sword strikes.

Back when Shirou was a Sword Saint, he was already able to suppress the entire Kingdom of Shiron, which shows the huge advantage of the Sword God style in legion battles.

If the Kingdom of Asura wants to suppress Alice, it would have to send at least 40% of its knightly order to have any chance of defeating her head-on.

However, due to the extremely narrow space where the execution platform was located, only a very small number of knights were allowed to enter. Most knights waited outside to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering.

Now, with only the knights of the Knights Order surrounding the execution platform, there seems to be no way they can defeat Alice.

"..."

While the knights of the Order looked panicked and at a loss, Darius on the surrounding high platform wore a smiling expression.

He was clearly not alarmed by the current situation, or rather, everything was unfolding exactly as he had predicted.

Although only Alice came to storm the execution ground, and Gilead was currently missing, which made Darius somewhat worried, as long as Alice could be captured, Ariel's camp would be missing an arm. With only Gilead as the Sword King, they would inevitably be unable to hold on alone!

Darius therefore suppressed his inner joy as much as possible and secretly issued the order.

"Wow!"

The next instant, Alice, who had been slaughtering everyone on the execution platform, suddenly changed her expression and looked at a corner not far away with a look of terror.

There, the North Emperor Obel, whom they had met before, reappeared.

Moreover, it wasn't just the Northern Emperor; the three Northern Kings who had appeared before also reappeared, coming from all sides to form a siege, giving Alice no chance to escape.

Alice showed no intention of running away, remaining standing calmly in place, her longsword silently raised, like a brave warrior holding the line against all odds.

Seeing this, Aubert showed an interested expression and said, "Interesting, very interesting. Knowing that there is no way out, you still came here. Is it because you still have a trump card to play, or is it just pure recklessness?"

"..."

Alice did not respond to Aubert's words.

She simply raised her longsword silently, assuming the stance of the Blade of Light.

"Alright, since you want to fight, I'll give you the chance."

Aubert smiled and looked at the Northern Kings beside him, "I'll handle this little girl. You all keep a close eye on Sauros and prevent the Black Wolf Sword King Kyrie from launching a sneak attack."

"it is good."

The Northern Kings generally approved of Aubel and nodded without hesitation.

They were indeed very worried about Gilead, who had not yet appeared, and suspected that he might still be hiding in the shadows, ready to make a move at any time.

Seeing the cautious attitude of the Northern Emperor, Auber, Alice frowned slightly from a distance.

But she didn't panic at all. Without hesitation, she gripped her longsword and was about to walk forward.

"Alice..."

When Sauros saw his granddaughter whom he hadn't seen in a long time, he felt complicated and wanted to say something.

"Grandpa?"

Alice also graciously paused, waiting for Shoros's instruction.

Shoros hesitated for two seconds before finally smiling and saying, "As a child of the Boreas family, I will never admit defeat, even if it costs me my life!"

"it is good!"

Alice nodded.

The grandfather and grandson exchanged a smile.

Alice turned and ran towards Aubert without looking back.

Seeing Alice's actions, Aubert made no unnecessary movements, but instead stood calmly in place.

Alice frowned slightly at the sight.

After all, the Blade of Light cannot withstand a direct slash; this is a fact known to everyone in the world, and even the mighty Northern Emperor could not be unaware of it.

The fact that Shirou was able to suppress Alexander the Great III with the Sword of Light, a sword of king-level power, already proved the advantage of the Sword of Light in sword duels.

Although Aubert clearly saw Alice swing the Blade of Light, he still made no move, which undoubtedly aroused Alice's suspicion.

However, Alice's will was ultimately strong enough.

Even though she knew there was a problem, she still didn't have the idea of ​​slowing down.

After all, the Sword God style absolutely cannot be confused about its sword. Once it becomes confused about the sword itself, the sword will become dull, and it will eventually be impossible to wield the true light katana.

Without hesitation, Alice rushed toward Aubert at full speed.

Just as she was about to reach Aubert's location, Alice's expression suddenly trembled, and her movements became strangely shaky.

Just as Alice was about to touch Aubert, she found that the ground beneath her feet suddenly sank, and because she was moving too fast, her right leg was stuck and she could not move.

Seeing that everything was happening as he had expected, Aubert smiled and said:

"Hehe, that's quite a straightforward move. The speed of the Sword God Style is indeed very fast, and the Light Blade is indeed the strongest sword technique, but this is both an advantage and a disadvantage... As long as we, the Northern God Style, do not confront the Sword God Style head-on, we can still suppress the Light Blade of the Sword God Style by creating traps through targeted design."

"..."

Alice frowned at Aubert's words, but she did not panic.

Alice's only concern right now is that she can't accept that she didn't see through her opponent's trap.

She felt she should be more confident and calmer; if it were Shirou, he would definitely be able to see through the trap.

Yes, Alice has always taken Shirou as her role model, striving to become stronger step by step. She always follows Shirou's actions and thinking to learn how to become a swordsman.

When she became the Sword King and left the Holy Land of Swords, she thought she had already done it and had become a swordsman as excellent as Shirou.

But now she suddenly realizes that she is still far from being good enough.

We must remain more calm.

We need to be more careful.

We must pursue victory with even greater fervor!

A burning determination welled up in Alice's heart, and she thrust her sword directly into the ground, disregarding whether it would injure her leg, tearing the earth apart.

"what?"

Aubert watched Alice's movements with an incredulous look.

He also designed several layers of traps in that trap, which would be triggered by outsiders using violence, causing a chain reaction of destruction.

He had assumed that Alice's impulsiveness would result in her leg being smashed to pieces.

Unexpectedly, Alice's actions were both bold and meticulous. At the critical moment, she pulled her leg out of the trap, seized the only opportunity, and escaped the trap's confinement.

"No wonder you earned the title of Mad Sword King, you really are a madman..."

Aubel was dumbfounded, astonished by Alice's behavior.

After all, no normal person would do something so rash, risking the loss of their right leg. But Alice not only did it, she also successfully escaped her restraints.

This made Aubert no longer dare to underestimate the red-haired woman in front of him.

"Even with prior preparations, it was still impossible to completely suppress it."

Ober smiled at Alice, his words weak but his attitude still full of confidence. "If you were the Sword Emperor, I might not be able to do anything to someone like you, but unfortunately you are not. In that case, don't blame me for bullying the weak."

"Have you finished talking nonsense?"

Alice frowned, seemingly thinking that Aubert was talking too much.

Aubert didn't say anything more and nodded, saying, "Then, let me formally introduce myself. I am Aubert Colbert, the Peacock Sword!"

"Alice Bereas Grerat".

Alice responded silently.

Their attention was focused to the extreme almost instantly.

And in the next instant!

"boom!"

Aubel drew his sword with his left hand and then sheathed it with his right hand—a standard Hokami-ryu technique: the Twenty Cuts!

Faced with Aubel's proactive attack, Alice naturally did not retreat and charged forward with a katana of light.

But to her utter surprise, Aubert's actions were merely a feint. The sword in his hand had somehow transformed into a strange bag, which he then immediately threw away.

The bag slowly flew towards Alice, tracing a parabola.

Since Alice had already made the movement of the Light Blade, she had no way to dodge and could only subconsciously slash the bag down in mid-air.

In that instant, something resembling smoke suddenly poured out of the bag, and Alice's face was directly sprayed with it...

"Cough cough... cough cough!!"

Because of the powder sprinkled on her face, Alice's eyes streamed with huge tears, and she sneezed uncontrollably.

"Hehe, those were specially made tear gas canisters mixed with spices."

Aubel approached Alice with effortless movements, saying, "This is a special technique of the Northern God Style Qiba School that I invented. Don't think I'm being despicable."

"You bastard...!!"

Alice's eyes lost their function for a short time, but she did not give up her resistance. Instead, despite losing her sight, she relied on her other senses and intuition to forcefully swing a slash at Aubert!

This exaggerated combat instinct startled Aubert, who quickly retreated to avoid the attack.
