Anchor, Stop Pretending, You're in Chaldea - Chapter 125

“That dragon-headed monster looks quite strong.”

“The pressure is intense. But it seems like Rome is about to be destroyed. Can we still make it?”

“No, who knows what the streamer was planning from the beginning?”

“We don’t need to know. Just skip the plot and focus on attacking whoever has a health bar.”

“Something is definitely off with Emperor Nero. Who understands what she’s saying? It’s all about corruption and desires… Wait a minute! Emperor Nero, desires, corruption… Ah! I think I get it!!!”

“The person upstairs, understanding everything will only get you into trouble!!!”

——–

The powerful sense of oppression keeps approaching as the unknown dragon-headed monster relentlessly attacks Iskandar in mid-air and the people on the chariot.

“Boom!!”

A powerful breath once again spews out from the monster’s mouth!

The chariot immediately changes direction swiftly, while Iskandar urges Bucephalus to approach the monster from the side and strikes its head with his sword.

The enraged monster wildly swings its body, trying to destroy everything around it.

“This creature lacks mobility. Keep attacking, I will divert its attention!!!” Iskandar commands as he urges Bucephalus to charge forward.

“Too slow! You won’t be able to bite me like this!!!” Taking advantage of Bucephalus’ agile body, he continuously attacks the monster’s body with the Sword of the Kupriotes.

Just as Iskandar continues to enter the blind spot of the enemy’s attacks, preparing to strike again, a sudden intense vibration comes from below.

“Roar!!!” Another monster emerges from the blood sea formed within the Demon God Pillars!!!

This new monster has a worm-like head and is swiftly pouncing towards Iskandar in a predator-like posture from below!!!

“Ugh!!!” Iskandar senses the danger and quickly pulls the reins to make Bucephalus evade.

But the opponent’s momentum is fierce, and it seems there’s no escape!

Suddenly, a black spear flies from a distance and pierces into the mouth of the newly appeared monster!

Then, on top of the chariot, Jeanne Alter triumphantly wields her black sword.

“Get a taste of this!!!”

She swings down with force!

“Boom!!!”

The monster’s mouth erupts in a massive explosion of flames, causing it to immediately howl in agony.

Iskandar tightened the reins of Bucephalus and took the opportunity to evade the attack of the other monster, escaping from the side in time.

He arrived beside the chariot, looking at the two monsters in the distance.

“Hmm… this is getting too chaotic.”

“Rider, are you okay?!” Waver immediately asked Iskandar anxiously.

“I’m fine, I’m fine, hahaha. Almost got carried away there,” Iskandar laughed heartily.

“But it seems like there are more than just one of these strange monsters. Everyone needs to be more careful.”

“Close-quarter combat is too dangerous, we can’t predict the situation around us,” Waver analyzed the situation nervously, his gaze fixed on Nero, who seemed to be enjoying the battle in the sky.

“That target doesn’t seem to be making a move for now, but it also means she can strike at any time.”

“But among our soldiers, we don’t have an Archer skilled in long-range attacks. It’s quite inconvenient for aerial combat,” Sima Yi, who appeared from Reines, said.

“But if we have someone with a Noble Phantasm, perhaps we can still fight,” Sima Yi continued.

“Of course! If I can unleash my Noble Phantasm, I can take down these two guys with just one strike!” Mordred said discontentedly.

“No, Mordred, your attack range is too wide. It might affect the chariot,” Bai Qiu immediately stopped Mordred’s thoughts.

“I know that, but if we continue like this, the enemy will only gain the advantage of the terrain, and we’ll just end up wasting time, won’t we?” Mordred argued.

“Everyone, I have a plan. Can you give it a try?” I said.

“Oh? Does Master have a strategy?” Mordred immediately became excited.

“Mordred, later on, I will let you try using your Noble Phantasm to attack those two monsters,” I explained.

“I can finally use my Noble Phantasm?! OK, I’m up for it!!!” Mordred exclaimed.

“Senpai, didn’t you just say that Mordred’s attack would affect the chariot?” Mashu asked, her face filled with worry.

“That’s why we need everyone’s cooperation,” I replied.

“As long as it’s Senpai’s plan, I agree to it.”

Mashu didn’t ask much and just nodded.

“Well, I don’t have any ideas right now, so I might as well listen to your plan,” she said.

“Your plan, my lord? Interesting, I suppose I’ll listen,” Jeanne Alter said with curiosity.

Waver and Sima Yi also seemed to have no objections.

“Hmph, why should I listen to your command…” Jeanne Alter turned her head in dissatisfaction.

“But it would be troublesome if I fell off, oh well, I’ll just go along with it. If you make me do something boring, I’ll burn you to death!” she warned.

“…”

Before Bai Qiu could say anything, Jeanne Alter handed over a set of skills.

Truly the most easily manageable woman in Chaldea…

“If there’s a practical strategy, that would be even better,” Iskandar said, looking at Bai Qiu.

“Don’t worry, with me, the Conqueror King, leading the way for you!!!” he declared.

“But this chariot still needs someone to drive it,” Bai Qiu pointed out.

We can’t always rely on the Air-walking Thunder Bulls to be in automatic driving mode.

“That’s simple,” Iskandar patted the Air-walking Thunder Bulls.

“From now on, you will temporarily follow the orders of this young man. His words are my royal command.”

“Moo—!!!” The Air-walking Thunder Bulls responded with a lowing sound.

“Now that these two Air-walking Thunder Bulls are following your command, feel free to lead them,” Iskandar said.

“Thank you.”

With everyone else about to exert their full power, it was indeed the right choice for Bai Qiu to drive the chariot.

Bai Qiu continued with determination.

“Iskandar, please continue to attract the attention of those two monsters. If possible, try to make their heads come closer together.”

“Just need to bring them closer, right?”

“Yes, and then we leave immediately after it’s done.”

“Understood, I’ll go ahead then! Let’s go, Bucephalus!!!” Iskandar urged his black steed towards the two monsters.

Bai Qiu also grabbed the reins attached to the Air-walking Thunder Bulls.

“Everyone, now is the time for our counterattack!!!”
