Chapter 279: [279] Gathering Together
"Damn it—" Martha took two steps back, watching as Alucard approached the Holy Grail, and his expression became increasingly unpleasant.
Indeed.
Even she had no way to deal with Alucard.
However—
This was said without considering her class abilities.
"Stop! You haven't won yet, and you can't approach the Holy Grail now. Otherwise, I'll use a command spell!"
"Oh? A command spell?" Alucard laughed. "Then give it a try! A command spell? Hehe... Come on, try it, see what effect your command spell can really have!"
As Alucard approached step by step, Marta took a deep breath. "Fine! It's the first time someone has made such a request. Since you want me to use a command spell, then fine—I, Saint Martha, in the name of Ruler, command you, Alucard..."
"What's wrong? Why did you stop?" Alucard laughed. "Continue, maybe you can kill me with that command spell!"
"In the name of the command spell, I order you! Stand there and don't move!"
"What—" Alucard's legs suddenly stiffened in place. No, he couldn't move completely. Rather, his movements became extremely slow, as if he were bound by something.
"You, bastard—"
Alucard's face turned ugly.
"Hmph! Don't take me for a fool—" Martha looked at Alucard and said, "You probably thought I would command you to release the River of Death or commit suicide, right?"
"Well, who knows if one command spell is enough to make you release the River of Death! As for making you commit suicide... even if you dig out your own heart and smash your brain, you won't die, right? So stand there and don't move!"
"In the name of the second command spell, I command you once again, stand still!"
Martha used up both command spells in an instant, and she felt a sudden sense of relief.
Her mood instantly improved.
"Yes, yes, that's it. Hmph! A guy like you should just stay put and not wander around! Just stay in place!"
"Hmph... Hahaha—"
"What are you laughing at?" Martha looked at Alucard, who was laughing heartily, with dissatisfaction.
"Oh, nothing. Just find it amusing." Alucard looked at Martha's hair fluttering in the wind and said, "You only made me stand still, but sometimes certain things can't be done without moving, you know? You should command me not to approach the Holy Grail instead!"
"!!!" Martha's forced smile froze on her face...
She didn't expect that.
"And besides, how long can a command spell like this bind me? One hour? Two hours? Or ten hours? What can you do in such a short time? Nothing! When the time comes, you still won't be able to stop me. The Holy Grail will still fall into my hands!"
"Enough with the nonsense! Deal with it when the time comes. Now—"
"No, no!"
Just then, a voice from a distance interrupted Martah's words, and both Alucard and Marta quickly turned their heads.
They saw a pyramid flying towards them in the distance.
In this dark night, it seemed to emit a radiant light, as if the sun on the ground!
"Red Faction Rider's Noble Phantasm?" Martha was slightly surprised. "Why is he coming at this time..."
"Hehe... The target is the same as mine, the Holy Grail."
"That's right! The Holy Grail belongs to me, destined to be mine! Is there a more suitable place in the world for the Holy Grail to be in my hands? No!"
Boom—
The pyramid arrived in front of Martha and Alucard, and in front of the Holy Grail, it crushed the ruins below, falling to the ground.
"I am the Pharaoh! The King among Kings! Is there a more suitable place in the world for the Holy Grail to be in my hands? No!"
As he spoke, several Sphinxes appeared from the fallen pyramid, walking towards the location of the Holy Grail.
The goal was simple—to transport the Holy Grail to the temple!
"Ah, one or two of them!!" Martha, dissatisfied, said, "Servants, Rider! In the name of the command spell, I order you—whether it's you or your subordinates, do not touch the Holy Grail until all other Servants are defeated!"
The Sphinxes paused for a moment.
But it was just a moment—
The next moment, the Sphinxes resumed their movements.
"Huh? Why?" Martha was stunned for a moment. Wasn't the command spell effective?
"Hahaha—useless! Unworthy! Unfounded! Useless! I am the God-King! Do you think I can't resist even such a command spell? If you want to force me with a command spell, prepare ten command spells! Just two command spells are not enough!"
Ozymandias laughed heartily inside the pyramid.
Dealing with him inside the pyramid was useless with a command spell. Of course, this was thanks to DIO's ability! As long as he was inside this pyramid, in this temple, he could use magical energy to realize his desired changes to "reality"—
Currently, he had several magus from the Mage's Association supplying him with magical energy. It could be said that he had a "sufficient" but not "infinite" supply of magical energy.
However, being able to fight in a Holy Grail War at this level was already enough!
Boom, boom, boom, boom—
The next moment.
From the sky, a rain of Noble Phantasms fell—
Countless Noble Phantasms instantly killed all the Sphinxes in front of the Holy Grail.
"Hahaha—ignorant Mongrel! Who gave you the courage to touch my treasure, the Holy Grail?"
"Hahaha! What are you saying, Golden King? The Holy Grail clearly belongs to me!" Ozymandias looked at Gilgamesh, who had appeared in the sky, and said dissatisfiedly, "In the world, is there anyone other than me who deserves to possess the Holy Grail? No! There isn't! The Holy Grail is most suitable for me to obtain, only for me! Even you, trying to stop me, is too arrogant!"
"Wrong! Mongrel! Everything in the heavens and earth belongs to me, Gilgamesh alone! How dare you, a lowly mongrel, try to touch my treasure? Are you ready to die—?"
