If the battle between Sakatsuki and Diarmuid was a pure contest of "technique," then the sh between Archer Gilgamesh and Berserker Lancelot may better fit people''s imagination of a fantastical world.@@novelbin@@


    It all started with Berserker using the Spiral Sword, a jet-ck energy cannon that forced Archer to the ground. In his humiliation and fury, Gilgamesh once again unleashed the power of the Gate of Babylon.


    "How dare you touch my treasures with those filthy hands... Do you wish to die, dog?"


    Archer was surrounded by dazzling light as a new batch of treasures appeared like a saint''s halo, floating around the Golden Hero.


    "Come then! Let me see how long your dirty hands can withstand!"


    With amand, the treasures in the air surged forward to strike Berserker.


    The rumbling sound shook the air, and the explosion''s light nearly wiped out the darkness, lighting up the night sky.


    Who could believe that throwing swords and other weapons could cause such massive destruction? Countless treasures rained down on the warehouse streets, turning them into a carpet-bombed ruin.


    Archer''s relentless attack showed no signs of stopping. The treasures fell like thunder as if intending to annihte not just Berserker but the entire street. One strike after another, the barrage grew fiercer and fiercer — but Berserker still stood tall and unwavering.


    Anyone watching could easily understand Berserker''s ability — the ability to take any weapon in hand and seize ownership of it.


    The Knight of Owner, with an A+ rank, wasn''t a skill but a Noble Phantasm. It gave the weapon in hand the attributes of a Noble Phantasm. Even a metal pole or an airne could be turned into a D-rank Noble Phantasm.


    Thus, for Archer, who confidently relied on his massive number of treasures to overwhelm opponents, Berserker''s abilities were practically a perfect counter.


    This situation repeated itself. Berserker caught the first spear with his empty left hand, then raised it, using both it and his right-handed sword to sweep and deflect the iing treasures.


    Such skill was both meticulous and bold, almost elegant. Even though the treasures were taken from Archer, Berserker wielded them with ease, like an extension of his own body. The fluidity and finesse with which he handled the weapons made it seem as though they were his regr armaments.


    The sh continued until a particrly loud boom echoed, and thest of the treasures fell.


    In the eerie silence that followed, only Berserker remained standing in the thick dust, while the surrounding warehouse, streetlights, and buildings were allpletely destroyed. The ck-armoured knight held a battle axe in his right hand and a single-edged scimitar in his left. The remaining treasuresy scattered around his feet or embedded in the debris. Not a single weapon had touched his ck armour.


    Suddenly, Berserker raised his remaining weapons — positioning himself defensively.


    Though he could seize any weapon in hand, he couldn''t nullify the shockwaves from the treasures fired by Gilgamesh.


    And so, even a Berserker with A-level strength and endurance took up a defensive posture. The only kind of weapon capable of pushing him back like this was...


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    The battle axe and scimitar shattered as they made contact with the shockwaves. Berserker''s eyes glowed red as he reached out to grasp the iing weapon, but the violent thunderbolts sent it flying back into Gilgamesh''s grasp.


    When the blinding lightning subsided, the weapon in Gilgamesh''s hand revealed itself.


    It was a short-handled giant hammer.


    The hammerhead was forged from the hardest metals and rocks, with the handle carved from a segment of the World Tree Yggdrasil. Engraved on the hammer''s head was the Celtic Triquetra, symbolizing "eternity."


    If Odin''s spear was a sharp lightning bolt, then this giant hammer was a violent thunderp.


    "To think I had to bring out a treasure from my vault. You truly are bold, mad beast."


    With the anger seemingly dissipated, Gilgamesh lowered his gaze and slowly raised the Nordic divine weapon, aiming it at Lancelot.


    With a crackling burst of thunder, the killing intent of Ragnarok itself filled the air.


    "Die."


    Apanied by the roar of thunder, the Thunder God''s Hammer shot forward, striking Berserker square in the chest before he could react!


    The ck-armoured knight silently flew backwards.


    At that moment, Diarmuid and Sakatsuki, locked in their own fight, collided with Lancelot, who was flying toward them from the south gate.


    "Hey, what''s going on here?!"


    "I don''t know!"


    Reacting swiftly to the iing projectile, Sakatsuki and Diarmuid broke off from their duel, with Sakatsuki raising his dual des and Diarmuid holding his red spear, both putting all their strength into blocking the oing Berserker.


    Boom!


    The ck armour and weapons collided with a massive force, causing the two of them to slide backwards for several meters. Berserker, weighing over a hundred kilograms in full armour, finally came to a stop, his chest te dented and crackling with electric energy, looking both terrifying and damaged.


    For ordinary people, such a wound would require a long recovery. But for Servants...


    Roar!


    Berserker leapt into the air, his chest wound rapidly healing under the influence of his magic.


    Without attacking those around him, the beast-like instincts of Berserker warned him of the impending blow.


    Now, if all your enemies are gathered in one ce and you happen to possess a wide-range, unrestricted, powerful AoE attack... what would you do?


    "Hahahaha,e, let me enjoy this to the fullest!"


    The manicughter echoed through the sky, and golden ripples quickly spread across the heavens!


    d in golden armour, with weapons spilling from behind him, Archer Gilgameshughed madly. In the next moment, he unleashed a wild barrage of attacks against all three, including Sakatsuki!


    "How could he do this?!"


    Irisviel felt her heart tighten with an indescribable frenzy.


    Does this mean Archer is now making enemies of all three groups?


    When did Tokiomi be so reckless?!


    No matter how Irisviel felt, however, the weaponsunched by Gilgamesh had already reached the sides of Sakatsuki and the others.


    The king, proud and haughty, had just dered war on all three!
