Chapter 789: Little Sakura Summons Lancelot
Chapter 789: Little Sakura Summons Lancelot
"Sakura, you..."
Yan Ye watched as Little Sakura approached the Summoning Array, intending to say something, but ultimately, he lowered the hand he had raised.
This was Sakura's own decision, and he shouldn't stop her.
Perhaps this young girl was stronger than he imagined. After all, Yan Ye could empathize with the pain of strengthening the Magic Circuit, and Little Sakura, not yet ten years old, had endured it repeatedly during the Worm Tide.
If Sakura could truly become the disciple of the white-haired magician, it might not be a bad thing for her.
After all, in the world of magicians, the master-disciple relationship was akin to that of father and son. If the magician had no other family or disciples, they would naturally take good care of Sakura after their passing.
Furthermore, given the dirty methods used to defeat Kiryu Zangyin, if he were to become Sakura's teacher, his future achievements would undoubtedly surpass that of the bastard Faruzuki Tokito.
The primary concern now was whether Sakura could successfully summon a Heroic Spirit and pass the master's test.
One had to possess certain qualities to become a Master in the Holy Grail War.
To summon a Heroic Spirit using a Holy Artifact required a solid foundation of Mana. That's why Yan Ye didn't hesitate to use Engraved Worms to strengthen his Magic Circuit, even at the cost of his life.
"Overflow, overflow, overflow, overflow, overflow!"
...
"Hear my call, and let my command be your sword..."
...
"I wish to fulfill all good deeds in this world, and I wish to eradicate all evil..."
"You are bound by the Three Great Command Spells of the Seven Days, from the Wheel of Suppression, the Guardian of the Scales..."
"Yet, you shall be blinded by chaos, serving me in madness, and I shall be the one who chains you!"
The incantation Sakura recited was taught to her by Yan Ye, who stood by her side. To increase the chances of a successful summoning, Yan Ye had Sakura include a Madness-attribute incantation during the summoning process.
Servants, Heroic Spirits, are divided into seven classes: Saber (Swordsman), Archer (Archer), Lancer (Lancer), Rider (Rider), Caster (Magician), Assassin (Assassin), and Berserker (Berserker).
Among these, the Berserker class is generally considered the weakest overall.
Compared to other classes with distinct strengths and weaknesses, Berserkers typically possess the Madness attribute, which, simply put, means they lack intelligence.
To compensate for this flaw, Berserkers often have the "Berserk Mode" skill, which can enhance the Heroic Spirit's parameters but also makes them even more insane, to the point of disregarding their Master's commands.
In essence, it's a trade-off, using intelligence for combat power. The Holy Grail War isn't just about strength; it's also a battle of wits, which is why Berserkers are often labeled as the weakest class.
As Sakura continued her incantation, the Summoning Array on the ground began to glow. Summoning a Heroic Spirit required a significant amount of Mana, and even though Sakura's Magic Circuit was excellent, her Mana was limited due to her young age.
Although a Heroic Spirit responded to her call, Sakura's face paled, indicating a slight Mana deficiency.
Yan Ye was about to take action when he noticed someone else moving faster than him.
Sakura, who had already exhausted her Mana, suddenly felt a warm and powerful Mana flowing into her body from behind.
And this powerful and warm mana, at this moment, was like a sweet rain, directly filling up the dry magic circuits within her.
With a powerful mana boost, the Spirit Summoning Array in front of Xiao Ying also blossomed with a dazzling light, and a knight clad in full armor, exuding a black aura, appeared before them.
Looking at the Heroic Spirit Xiao Ying had summoned, Yecheng's face didn't show much surprise.
If Xiao Ying hadn't used a Holy Artifact and relied solely on her compatibility with the Heroic Spirit, she would likely have summoned R-Sister.
But now, with the use of a Holy Artifact, the Berserker Lancelot appearing wasn't something strange.
"Xiao Ying, let me see this Servant's Heroic Spirit attributes."
When the Heroic Spirit was summoned, three Command Seals also appeared on the back of Xiao Ying's hand, which not only symbolized her as a Master but could also be used to enhance or forcefully command the Heroic Spirit Servant.
True Name: Lancelot (Knight of the Lake)
Attribute: Order · Madness
Class: Berserker
Ability Parameters:
Strength: A
Endurance: A
Agility: A+
Mana: A
Luck: B
Noble Phantasm: A
Class Skills: Berserk Mode (Level C)
Except for Luck and Mana, all other ability parameters are increased by one rank, but the ability to speak and think is lost.
Inherent Skills:
Blessing of the Elves (Level A): A blessing from the elves. The ability to prioritize the invocation of luck in dangerous situations, but only in battlefields where martial achievements can be established.
Infinite Training (Level A+): In a certain era, the dual-wielding technique was unparalleled, achieving a complete unity of mind, skill, and body, allowing the full utilization of power without any mental influence.
Noble Phantasm: Knight Without Hands
Rank: A++ Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm
Effect: Grants the ability to bestow Noble Phantasm attributes upon weapons and wield them. Lancelot's range of recognition for "weapons" is broad.
Noble Phantasm: Not for My Glory
Rank: B Anti-Personnel Noble Phantasm
Effect: The ability to conceal one's own ability values and true name.
To be honest, the Berserker Lancelot, aside from having a limited intellect and an intense obsession with the Silly King, was already quite exceptional.
Infinite Training and NTR Hand are among the higher-ranked inherent skills and Noble Phantasms.
In terms of ability parameters, aside from Mana at Rank C, all other parameters are nearly on par with an all-A rank Servant.
In a one-on-one fight, relying on Infinite Training, Lancelot could easily overpower the Silly King.
"Berserker Lancelot, summoned by your call, I ask, are you my Master?"
Just as Yecheng was lamenting that Xiao Ying's abilities were impressive, but it was a shame she was a bit brainless, the fully armored knight suddenly knelt before Xiao Ying.
And immediately following that, a gentle male voice emerged from within the armor, startling Yecheng beside them.
What the hell? Can a Berserker-ranked Lancelot speak? Isn't he just a crazy guy who swings around a pole like a madman? In truth, while Berserker-ranked Heroic Spirits are insane, not all Servants lose their sanity when summoned.
Most Berserkers are classified as such due to their personalities or a specific aspect of their madness, and they can still communicate when the Berserk Mode class skill isn't active.
The original Lancelot's madness was partly due to Kiryu Ganzai's added madness curse and partly due to the insufficient Master's talent, resulting in a flawed summoning of Lancelot.
