Chapter 25 Negotiations Break Down
"Okay!" The giant red man saw Shuo Yue's performance and shouted loudly, giving him thunderous applause.
"I didn't expect that I would be able to witness such a heroic figure just now in this world. Very good! Very good! Master of Caster, tell me why you are here!"
After a brief salute, the young man stood up straight. Facing the majestic king, he smiled with neither humility nor arrogance:
"I am here to make a request for alliance."
"Alliance?" Weber, who was hiding behind the Servant, poked his head out and said in disbelief, "The Holy Grail War has just begun, right? Is this the beginning of an alliance? By the way, I haven't explained how you found me. Let me How can I trust you?"
Faced with such fierce questioning, Shuo Yue still maintained a calm smile on her face: "Since it is Alexander the Great, the born conqueror, who has returned to the world, how can I not come to welcome him with joy?"
"Hmm!" Weber then realized the problem and couldn't help but give the strong man beside him a sad look.
"Sure enough, it was exposed..."
Iskandar is the Persian name for Alexander III.
And its synonym of Dhu al-Qarnayn (Double-Horned King) is also widely known.
His expedition to the East made everyone in the Islamic world aware of his bravery. As for why his real name was exposed...
The sound of "Conquering King Iskandar seeks world hegemony with one strike of his sword!" was loud enough that if it were placed on the battlefield, even the enemy's horses would be frightened to the point where their legs would tremble.
But in the Holy Grail War, the act of self-registering an account is tantamount to self-exploding a weakness. As long as the true name of the heroic spirit can be locked, the strategy can be found from history.
However, Rider not only turned a blind eye to Weber's complaints, but also laughed loudly:
"As the king of conquest, I disdain to do stupid things that are secretive. It is my kingly way to initiate conquests without hesitation!"
"That's right!" The young man with golden eyes echoed the king's declaration, looked directly at Weber's evasive gaze, and said in a sincere tone, "Although I think I am even more powerful with Caster's help, I want the King of Conqueror to know that during the Holy Grail War The three summoned knights, Saber, Lancer, and Archer, all have 'anti-magic', so it would be very bad for me to encounter them."
"To magic power? Is it the ability to resist magic power?" Hearing this, Weber subconsciously checked Rider's panel, and then he saw the skill "Resistence to magic power D" as he wished, but he was frustrated because of the low level. He frowned.
Weber is really easy to understand now... Shuo Yue, who was opposite Weber, twitched the corner of his mouth, and Iskandar was obviously aware of his master's immaturity, so he simply lifted Weber up and protected him behind him, and continued:
"So, you want to form an alliance with me so that you can deal with the three knights who have the right magic power, right?"
"That's right. Although the King of Conquerors is naturally not afraid of the three-level cavalry, our side is already weak, so naturally we should find a big mountain to rely on.
"Then, what can you bring to me?" Iskandar took a step forward with a sarcastic look on his face, "If you want to give me nothing, don't blame me for being ruthless?"
"Of course it won't be like this." Shuo Yue smiled helplessly, "It's impossible to hide things now, so let's just confess - my lovely servant has the special magic to track the breath of the servant. ah."
"What?" In shock, Weber jumped out again, pointed at Miyu, who was standing quietly behind Shuo Yue, and said in disbelief, "She can actually perform such magic? Doesn't this mean that you can easily find Where are the other masters hiding? No wonder you found us so quickly!"
In the Holy Grail War, intelligence is very important. If you can obtain the opponent's intelligence first, then half the battle is won!
"Yes, this gentleman is indeed smart. He is indeed a master who can summon the King of Conquerors." Sakuyue calmly held Miyu's hand and flattered him casually.
Weber was so stunned by Shuo Yue's praise that he couldn't help but smile stupidly: "Well, actually it's not that good..."
In any case, if an ally can provide them with intelligence, he and Rider can recharge their batteries and use the high mobility of the "Rider" job to attack other groups at any time - for Weber, this is A very tempting proposition indeed.
After coughing a few times, Weber pretended to be mature and steady, and turned to look at his servant: "Rider, if it is as he said, then we can indeed..."
There was a snap, and the ruthless forehead flicking sound filled the night sky. Miyu was so frightened that her body trembled, while Weber covered his swollen forehead and squatted down with tears in his eyes.
Except for the middle finger of his right hand, Rider looked as if nothing had happened. He turned to look at Sakutue in front of him and asked him:
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you your name yet?"
"Shuo Yue, just call me Shuo Yue."
"Shuoyue, right? Hmm, what an interesting name." The red-haired strong man nodded seriously and suddenly asked, "Shuoyue, I want to ask you something."
"...Please tell me." Shuo Yue truly smiled bitterly this time.
Iskandar scratched his hair and said in a distressed tone: "I have been fighting in all directions, and so far I have encountered many magicians who want to surrender. However, people like you don't need to use magic to communicate, but instead go to the enemy in person. This is really my first time meeting you.”
"On the contrary, those warriors who are self-confident in their strength and pretend to be honest and want to assassinate me often appear in front of me." At this point, the conquering king has no longer concealed his murderous intentions.
"Yes, yes!" After being awakened by Rider, Waver forgot the pain for a moment, subconsciously raised his head, and looked at the young man who called himself "weak" and his servants who stood in front of them.
Is it because the Holy Grail War is special that he forgot the nature of a magician?
The so-called magician is originally a stubborn person who hides in the magic workshop and will never go out unless it is absolutely necessary!
How could he appear in front of the servant without any defense!
Facing the alert Rider group, Shuoyue sighed and said, "As a king who can distinguish right from wrong, you should feel my sincerity in forming an alliance."
"That's right, you really want to form an alliance with me." Iskandar had already drawn the sword of Cyprus, and the tip of the sword was pointed directly at Shuoyue, "To be honest, your conditions are very tempting, and I almost wanted to agree."
"Then why--"
"But!" The roar scared Waver, and the rough King of Conquerors opened his eyes and shouted, "From beginning to end, you never said that you would give up the Holy Grail! Since you choose to block my road to conquest, we are enemies!"
"Come on, the God's Wheel!"
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the long-anxious giant bull snorted and rushed out of the void, bursting with purple lightning along the way, like the wrath of Zeus falling from the sky.
Grabbing the collar of the weak master, Rider jumped up, sat firmly on the chariot, and roared to attack Shuoyue:
"Feel the power of the conqueror king, and then obediently offer your head and chariot! I have been eyeing this handsome chariot from the beginning!"
"You are not refusing to form an alliance because you want to steal Shuoyue's motorcycle!" Weber curled up in the thundering chariot, his face almost green.
"How could it be, hahahaha...!" In the laughter that was trying to cover up, the divine wheel fell from the sky and chased the figure of the golden-eyed young man!
"Boom--!"
