Chapter 869: Is Summoning Dragon Species Impressive?
On one side was the Avenger, Black Jeanne, with her seemingly endless self-regeneration, and on the other was Sasaki Kojiro, whose condition had deteriorated due to consecutive high-intensity battles, and whose magical energy was also significantly depleted. The outcome was all but certain.
In terms of raw power, Sasaki Kojiro could have put up a fight, but the blackened Heroic Spirits were simply too abnormal.
Setting aside other factors, the Avenger-class skill 'Self-Healing' was almost like a bug in the Holy Grail War.
The all-around A-rank King in her normal state was evenly matched with almost anyone in the Holy Grail, appearing formidable but unable to defeat anyone.
But after her blackening, she first pinned down the arrogant B-rank with a third-party software, and then took down the mythological sorceresses and demigods like R-rank and Cu Chulainn with a single sword strike each.
In her normal state, the 'Curry Stick' was her trump card, but in her blackened state, it became a regular attack. With an infinite supply of magical energy, she could be as reckless as she wanted.
The Holy Grail had not yet officially descended, and 'This World's Evil' had not yet appeared, so Black Jeanne's strength as an Avenger had not reached its peak.
However, even so, the current Black Jeanne was already powerful enough. With an EX-rank Noble Phantasm and multiple A-rank or higher inherent skills, along with the Avenger class skills that were more annoying than other classes, she was formidable.
Even with just her ability parameters, the current Black Jeanne could probably suppress the berserk state of Hercules.
After eliminating Sasaki Kojiro, Black Jeanne quickly set her sights on Yecheng and licked her lips in excitement.
However, just as she was about to make her move, Medea and Medusa intervened and stopped her.
Not only known as the 'Dragon Sorceress,' Black Jeanne also possessed the EX-rank inherent skill 'Dragon Sorceress,' which allowed her to summon and command fantasy species like dragons.
She had intended to summon a dragon for the fight because she saw that Medea and Medusa were both present.
But when she summoned a Two-Legged Flying Dragon, even in her blackened state, her expression was strange as she watched the dragon stand in the middle, looking at her, then at Medea and Medusa, appearing confused.
"Hurry up and come to me, or have you become so foolish that you can't even distinguish your own master?" Black Jeanne angrily stabbed her sword into the ground and scolded the dragon.
As the 'Dragon Sorceress,' she could command dragon species, but now she couldn't even control a Two-Legged Flying Dragon? Hearing Black Jeanne's scolding, the summoned dragon took a step towards her, but just as it did, a cold and stern female voice rang out: "I command you not to go over there!"
Black Jeanne, as the 'Dragon Sorceress,' could command dragon species, but Medea, with her EX-rank Noble Phantasm 'Golden Fleece,' also had this ability.
Both had EX-rank abilities, but in terms of prestige, the Golden Fleece was clearly superior. After all, it was a legendary item that could produce dragons just by being placed on the ground.
Even among the many Noble Phantasms, the Golden Fleece was one of the highest-ranked.
Medea, the holder of the Golden Fleece, couldn't summon dragons, but as the rightful owner of the Golden Fleece, she possessed the ability to command dragon species. This was why the Two-Legged Flying Dragon was torn between the two.
On one side was the 'Dragon Sorceress', and on the other, the 'Golden Fleece', which was equivalent to the origin of dragons. This was truly a difficult choice for the dragon, as it was just a two-legged flying dragon. Why was it forced to make such a challenging decision?
As the two-legged flying dragon struggled to take a step, it looked left and right at Black Jeanne and Medea, displaying a human-like expression of indecision. But in the next moment, a figure leaped onto its back and directly harnessed it with a bridle.
The 'Dragon Sorceress' and the 'Golden Fleece' were not to be trifled with, but did other Heroic Spirits dare to ride on the two-legged flying dragon grandpa to relieve themselves?
Although it wasn't a purebred dragon, it was still a demi-dragon with draconic blood, a magical beast. Did they really think any cat or dog could ride it?
The two-legged flying dragon wanted to roar and resist, but soon it realized that with the bridle on, it had no power to resist the other party.
Seeing that it had already submitted and even become the other party's mount, Black Jeanne was completely dumbfounded.
First, a Caster mysteriously managed to challenge her for control over the two-legged flying dragon, and now a Rider had appeared and directly ridden the dragon she had summoned!
The Rider class possessed the class skill "Riding," allowing them to control most beasts and familiars, which she could somewhat understand. But dragons were the pinnacle of magical beasts; did that mean the Rider class could just ride them casually?
Unfortunately, what Black Jeanne didn't know was that while a typical Rider class might not be able to ride magical beasts at will, Medusa not only had the Rider class skill but also the Noble Phantasm 'Bridle of the Hero'.
The EX-rank 'Dragon Sorceress' inherent skill was incredibly powerful, but this formidable ability had little effect on Medea and Medusa.
With the excellent mount, Medusa's strength increased significantly. Under the boost of 'Bridle of the Hero', her various ability parameters were no less impressive than Black Jeanne's, so the two quickly clashed.
Black Jeanne, with the 'Self-Healing' class skill, had an almost inexhaustible supply of magical energy, but Medea also possessed the same ability.
Before coming here, Yecheng had once again become her Master, and with Yecheng's massive magical power, Medea could not only freely expend her magic but also, after forming a subordinate contract with Yecheng, her magic power became even stronger!
Medusa rode the flying dragon to restrain Black Jeanne, while Medea supported her with various divine-era magic.
Despite Black Jeanne's Holy Maiden Jeanne d'Arc's overwhelming power in her corrupted state, Medusa and Medea, fighting two against one, showed no signs of being at a disadvantage!
On the other side, the battle between Yecheng and Gilgamesh continued.
With the boost from Black Jeanne's Noble Phantasm 'My Wrath', the power of the Noble Phantasms Gilgamesh projected had increased by another level compared to before.
However, even facing the enhanced projection of Noble Phantasms, Yecheng remained remarkably composed.
"Is this your so-called trump card? After ten years, you still haven't made much progress, Hero King."
Initially, he thought that with the power and speed boost from the Avenger's Noble Phantasm, 'King's Treasure' could pose a challenge to Yecheng, and he, Gilgamesh, could seize that opening for a decisive strike.
But until the actual situation occurred, Gilgamesh realized that even with the increased power and speed of his Noble Phantasms, he still had no means to deal with this bastard, Yecheng.
The previous him, when fighting against himself, probably never displayed his true strength... No, even now, this bastard likely still had some tricks up his sleeve!
