"Lady Artemis...how is this possible?"
After confirming again and again that the Servant before her was indeed Artemis... Atalanta seemed unable to face her faith any longer.
"Oh dear, what should I do, Orion! Little Ata doesn't seem to recognize me... Waaah, I'm so sad! Please comfort me!"
"Hey! Don't use me to wipe your tears and snot, you goddess... It's because of your appearance that Atalanta can't recognize you!"
Orion's head lolled to the side, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he was nearly dead.
""
"Who are you, you monster, daring to impersonate the great goddess of hunting and purity! How dare you deceive me! Artemis would never be summoned as a Servant! You are Medea's magic, Medea's exquisite magic, aren't you!"
Although Atalanta already understood that the beautiful woman before her was the one she admired, Lady Artemis, she... refused to admit it!
Just kidding, what goddess is like that!
"Oh! Little Ata is so mean! But that's who I am... Why do you not recognize me after raising me... Mommy is so sad~~"
Atalanta's eyes went black.
"Ah...! Miss Atalanta, Miss Atalanta has collapsed! Miss Atalanta! Senior, what should we do! Senior!"
Mashu nervously tugged at Fujimaru Ritsuka's sleeve, looking flustered, and hurriedly asked.
Fujimaru Ritsuka: "This is their family matter, isn't it? We can't just interfere..."
However, let's hurry up and save them!
Miss Atalanta is already mentally sensitive; if this continues, she might come back and breathe on herself.
"Are you okay?"
After giving Atalanta some water and pinching her philtrum, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at the cat-eared girl and asked.
"It's alright... Even if my goddess is a hopeless romantic, I won't give up on myself now."
Atalanta tried to cheer herself up.
She didn't intend to dwell on Artemis's matter any further.
"Never mind, you were probably brought here by David to guard the Ark of the Covenant, right?"
“Jason said that as long as one possesses the Ark of the Covenant and sacrifices it, one can gain the power to become a king. He was probably deceived, but his desire to seize the goddess and the Ark of the Covenant was indeed real.”
“That’s right,” David added. “The Ark of the Covenant is equivalent to the soul of God, the dwelling place of God. If a god is sacrificed, even if the level is relatively low, it will get out of control and kill this era.”
"Is the Ark of the Covenant such a dangerous item?" Fujimaru Ritsuka grimaced.
"It is said that someone once touched the Ark of the Covenant without permission and died as a result... It is even said that during a battle, someone used his power to shake down the enemy's city walls."
After David snapped his fingers, he walked and talked, pushing aside a bunch of weeds and branches. In a simple, makeshift sanctuary, there was a square box, gleaming with gold and engraved with wings, quietly placed on the platform.
"This is the Ark of the Covenant..."
Legend has it that it contained the Ten Commandments, the covenant between God and man, as well as Aaron's staff, Moses' brother.
Aside from its golden sheen and immense magical power, it didn't seem particularly special.
If someone were to carelessly touch it, it might suddenly explode.
"Next, we need to figure out how to defeat them, right? One side is Hercules, the other is Jason... and—"
Fujimaru Ritsuka clenched her wrist.
"And what about the unknown enemies we might encounter, like the faceless magician?"
David greeted someone with a smile.
"Ah."
Dr. Roman's affirmative voice came through.
"The Greek heroes probably didn't know what the Ark of the Covenant was for. If that's the case, then there must be a mastermind behind Jason...maybe it's Solomon."
"Solomon... what a worrisome son... honestly, why are all my sons so wicked..."
An Nen raped his sister, and was then killed at a banquet hosted by Absalom.
Adonijah wanted Abisha, but was killed by Solomon.
Absalom, besides Solomon, was the most famous son who directly rebelled against his father.
At the gates of King David's city, he tried to fight David head-on and even came close to victory at one point.
The entire house of King David was as messy as the house of Emperor Taizong of Tang.
Dr. Roman clearly sensed that some old man had already guessed it, which is why he said that.
That old Deng is really wicked.
"Ritsuka, can you use the Imagination Manifestation technique?"
Olga Marie asked, a question she hadn't asked in a long time.
The environment here is not very stable in the Age of Gods, so even if celestial magic is used, it cannot exert the same powerful force as it did in Rome at that time.
"Well... I'm not sure either, but I should be able to if I go all out."
"But it only lasts for a short time."
"Um..."
After a moment's thought, Olga Marie said, "How about this, Ritsuka? Your chances of winning against the rampaging Hercules aren't very high—so I think you should lure Hercules onto the island first, then have Asterius unleash his Noble Phantasm and use the labyrinth to control him."
"Then Atalanta, Mash, Captain Drake, and the two Servants, Mary and Anne, joined together..."
Artemis: "Then what shall I do with my beloved?"
“That’s what I’m going to say next.”
Olga Marie's mind was unusually active for a moment. She hadn't wanted to get involved, but the princess was a little bored, and now the control room was back in her hands.
“You are—you should be Orion…as sons of the sea god, you should have the sea god’s protection…so you can stay on board and go around to the rear of Jason’s warship.”
"If the situation changes, such as the Demon Pillar or some behind-the-scenes manipulators entering the scene, you should immediately unleash your Noble Phantasms."
Artemis is a hidden force and reinforcement.
The goal is to launch a surprise attack.
"Oh, I see! We're the grand finale, darling!"
Artemis hugged the bear tightly.
"There were no other girls, just the two of us watching each other on the sea, it was so romantic."
Orion:
"Aren't you happy?"
Orion: "Of course...of course I'm happy!"
"That's wonderful, darling!"
Atalanta:
The female hunter thought to herself: Is it too late to change my faith now?
Chapter 98 The Battle Begins
"As expected of the director, what an excellent arrangement that allows everyone to fully utilize their abilities."
Fujimaru Ritsuka gave Olga Marie a thumbs-up, giving her full recognition.
The director is very talented, but he is very insecure.
His harshness, like a thorn, was actually a protective shield for himself, in order to rise to the position of the Celestial Societies Monarch and the Director of Chaldea.
However, it seems that Olga Marie looks much better now that she is no longer under the pressure of being the director.
"Wh...what? Anyway, I can't use it. My body has disappeared, and I can only move around in spirit form. It would be great if it could be of any use."
Director Olga Marie muttered to herself.
Although she is still alive, it is already a great blessing for Olga Marie.
"Well, everyone thinks it's okay, right?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka asked.
"I'm fine," Mashu nodded.
"I'm in charge of protecting the archers and Captain Drake, while Miss Mary is the main attacker, right?"
As a shield bearer, Mash fully understood her duty.
"That's right, are the others okay too?"
"If that's what you think, Master, then I have no problem with it."
There is no problem.
Splitting the troops into three groups is not without risk, but gathering them together will only make them a target for Hercules.
After all, aside from Asterius, Heracles wouldn't waste a second strike if he killed anyone else.
The battle plan was thus decided.
All we have to do now is wait for that bastard Jason to come looking for us, and then we can catch him off guard.
On the sea.
"The weather is really nice today."
Jason said, standing at the bow of the Argo.
The sky cleared and the rain stopped; Jason set off.
"Very good. Although that stinky cat that only knows how to breathe has betrayed us, we still have the invincible Hercules!"
"The advantage is on our side!"
Although the opposing side has a large number of Servants and their Master is no pushover, the only one who can truly stop Heracles's advance is the Minotaur!
Even if they all used all their Noble Phantasms on Hercules, they would never kill Hercules eleven more times!
Jason had complete faith in Hercules!
"Ah...that's it."
Hector shrugged and said nonchalantly, "As long as I have something to do, I don't care... No, something's not right! This is... being locked on!"
Even though they were still quite a distance from the shore, they were able to snipe from this position!
"Are you kidding? Compared to those scrap metal, my Argo is the most mysterious warship ever! Dealing with those archers who have no mystery at all is simply impossible—"
boom! ! !
A beam of light from a musket instantly struck Jason.
"Oh no, Lord Jason, the ship's hull is under attack!"
"Lord Jason, enemy artillery fire has hit the mast of our warship, affecting the sails' turning!"
Drake's warship has no mystery.
It's actually quite unrealistic to expect that a cannon shot from that distance could hit the Argo. It's also difficult for archer Servants to accurately aim at the sea.
Except for one person.
Anne Bernie!
As an excellent female pirate, Anne Bernie is extremely skilled in naval archery. She is very experienced and, although she is only a subordinate servant, she can make the most of an archer.
Although her overall class is cavalry, one of her skills was assigned to Miss Anne: B-rank shooting.
With the added skill of sailing shared by both, Miss Anne Bernie is capable of sniping any target within her field of vision on the ocean.
"That female pirate?!"
"Damn it! To fight us, they even recruited the enemy? Just how desperate are those people?!"
Upon hearing Jason's insults, Hector instinctively scratched the back of his head.
"We tricked them, so it's normal for them to be angry."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Jason sneered. "A bunch of good-for-nothings sticking together will only make them more good-for-nothings!"
