"Why are you yelling so loudly?!"
"Does yelling louder mean you're powerful? If you want to get involved, you need power and background. Which gang are you from? What's your background?"
Jason said this and looked at Asterios, then pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"Oh~, it turned out to be the Minotaur, a monster, destined to be defeated by a hero, no wonder he was yelling."
"Do you know who this person next to me is? He is the strongest hero in Greek mythology! Even Theseus, who defeated you, could not compare to him!"
"And a monster actually wants to protect others. Haha, it's ridiculous."
Faced with Jason's heart-piercing sarcasm, Asterios' eyes suddenly turned red, and he roared at Jason even louder, and his teeth began to grind in his mouth.
A harsh friction sound came out from between the teeth.
"Don't let him bother you, Asterios. You are protecting me now anyway. Remember that!"
Euryale frowned and couldn't help but glare at Jason, while comforting the calf.
"That's right, Asterios. You are no longer a monster but our companion. What others say is meaningless. The key lies in who you think you are!"
Lin Qi also spoke.
Lin Qi was not quite sure what bad things Asterios had done in the myth, but in this singularity, Asterios was just a simple companion whom Lin Qi trusted very much.
Lin Qi doesn’t care about anything else.
"You are also a crew member recognized by me, don't forget it!"
Drake was equally unwilling to be outdone, and with a hearty laugh he punched Asterios on the shoulder.
"..."
After hearing these words, Asterios felt a little shy and didn't know what to say.
"My name is Asterius, Os, I will protect Ellie!"
So Asterios turned to Jason and glared at him with a much firmer look than before.
"Whatever you say, Hercules, kill them!"
Jason waved his hand in boredom, then ordered Hercules to attack.

Chapter 68: The Final Battle at the Third Singularity (Part 4)
Can we really defeat Hercules?
As the battle progressed, Lin Qi couldn't help but ask in his heart.
Before the battle began, Lin Qi actually had no confidence in defeating Hercules, even though what he said before was very impressive and full of heroic qualities.
But no confidence means no confidence.
With such doubts in mind, Lin Qi continued to be active on the battlefield.
In this battle, all the people on both sides were mobilized.
Hercules was the main attacker of the opposing team and demonstrated terrifying suppressive power.
To contain him head-on, Asterios and Lin Qi would even need to come together to provide a safe output space for the long-range partners in the back.
Medea continued to summon a large number of Dragon Tooth Soldiers, trying to use the number of soldiers to cause trouble to Lin Qi's side. At the same time, she would occasionally perform some magic to attack Lin Qi's side.
Lin Qi has a B-level anti-magic ability, so he doesn't even need to look at conventional magic and can completely ignore it.
Even if she has reached the level of great magic, she can still use a treasure to resist a little, so Medea is surprisingly not a threat to Lin Qi.
Needless to say, as long-range units they are very agile and can dodge magic attacks while maintaining their attack frequency. Even if they cannot dodge, Lin Qi will find time to protect them with his treasure.
In this crucial battle, Jason was not idle either. He continued to use the Holy Grail to create inferior shadow servants to attack Lin Qi and others.
Jason's actions were dealt with by Atalanta and David.
Their attacks had no effect on Hercules, but they were just right to deal with these Shadow Servants and Dragon Fang Soldiers.
Over time.
The combined attack of Euryale and Artemis's Noble Phantasms killed Hercules.
Asterios used his A++ level strength to swing with all his might and killed Hercules.
Relying on the blessing of the Holy Grail, Drake also killed Hercules with a full-force bombardment.
At this point, Hercules still has seven lives left...
The attacks of everyone on Lin Qi's side could no longer have any effect on Hercules.
"Yes! That's it! Don't get close to the Ark of the Covenant. Keep killing them at this pace and bring back Euryale!"
Jason waved his fists proudly at Lin Qi and others, feeling that victory might be in his hands at any time.
Hercules also kept Jason's reminder in mind and always kept a considerable distance from the Ark of the Covenant.
Even if Lin Qi and the others wanted to force Hercules over by force, they simply couldn't do it. They could only try their best to drag Hercules and prevent him from making any other moves.
The battle was temporarily stalled.
After all, Chaldea in the original work also lured Hercules into the underground cemetery, and used the impact force of the treasure to stick Hercules to the Ark of the Covenant, thus causing Hercules' defeat.
The battlefield is so empty now. How can Lin Qi and his team force the vigilant Hercules to the Ark of the Covenant?
not to mention……
"Qiang!"
The flagpoles and spears intertwined, and the flying sparks illuminated the solemn expression on Lin Qi's face, as well as Hector's eyes that were slightly distressed and smiling.
——And this guy is here.
Lin Qi arrived in time again and stopped Hector who was trying to kidnap Euryale.
"You really are always on guard against me. I thought you would find a flaw after waiting for so long."
Hector used the spear in his hand to hold down Lin Qi's flag with force, with a fake smile on his face.
"Ah."
Lin Qi sneered as he wrestled with Hector.
For Lin Qi, as long as Hector is not in his sight, he must pay attention to his possible actions.
"But what's the point of you stopping me? You should also know that your companions can't hold on for long."
Hector looked up at the battlefield in front of him, where the situation was gradually becoming clearer as Lin Qi came to stop him.
Lin Qi is very good at defense. If he had a shield in his hand, he might have the qualifications to become a shield hero.
So as soon as Lin Qi left the front battlefield, Asterios was left alone to deal with Hercules' continuous attacks.
Even though Asterios was even stronger than Hercules, he was still defeated by Hercules' superb fighting skills.
When Medea and Jason saw Hector joining the battlefield, they both increased their output.
For a moment, everyone on Lin Qi's side became flustered.
Drake dodged Medea's magic cannon attack and shot a few shots at Hercules.
The bullet didn't even leave a mark on Hercules' body, it was bounced away directly.
"Tsk, that's really troublesome!"
Seeing this, Drake also started to have a headache.
If this were at sea...
No, I guess there's no way to deal with this guy at sea, right?
After all, compared to the seal's big flaw, this guy is really invulnerable.
After finally killing him, he came back to life in the blink of an eye, and was able to ignore the attack that killed him last time.
I even heard from Xiaolin that this guy currently has seven lives left...
This means exchanging all of our lives, and it would barely be enough!
If this was at sea, Drake would definitely run away again, then take a long-term view and think of other solutions.
"Pray to the Sun God and the Moon God——【Petition Arrow】!"
Atalanta gritted her teeth, used up the last of her magic power, and used her treasure to rain arrows on Jason and Medea.
Medea waved her staff without changing her expression, and a defensive barrier that she had prepared long ago appeared above her and Jason's heads.
Easily blocked Atalanta's attack.
"It seems that you are already very tired, Atalanta-sama. The Noble Phantasm you are using is so weak."
Seeing this, Medea couldn't help but shook her head with emotion.
"Ah, is it dedicated to me? But I don't think I can give you a blessing in my current state..."
Artemis, who was standing next to him, heard the chant and looked at Atalanta with a little surprise, and said with some regret.
Atalanta had a stern face. She was too tired to talk, but also upset that the god she believed in was actually a love-brained person.
Seeing all this, Lin Qi felt a sinking feeling in his heart.
This was what he was worried about, and it was also the flaw that Hector pointed out.
——They are already very tired.
There is not only a difference in frontal combat capability, but also a difference in endurance.
Jason's side, with Hercules, a berserker who never sleeps, as its main force, can conserve their energy while fighting.
But look at Lin Qi and the others.
Asterios is okay, his endurance is much stronger than that of ordinary servants, even stronger than Hercules.
But Atalanta and David were different. They had been dragging on for a long time before Lin Qi and others arrived, and their physical strength had long been exhausted.
Others also had varying degrees of physical exertion.

Chapter 69: The Final Battle at the Third Singularity (V)
(I feel like the battle is a bit watery, so please subscribe if appropriate - this chapter is 5000 words)
What is the personnel composition of Lin Qi's side?
The answer is a berserker, Lin Qi who can barely be called a shield soldier, and four... no, five archers.
If Drake is a Servant and can summon the Golden Deer as a Noble Phantasm, then he would be a qualified Rider.
Although Drake, who only has the blessing of the Holy Grail, is not weak, she lacks a mount and can only be said to perfectly meet the standards of an archer.
Abnormal. Anyone would think that Lin Qi's team is abnormal. Only Lin Qi and Asterios can be considered close combat units, while the others are ranged.
David can be considered a melee unit. His treasure [Five Stones] has a powerful effect and consumes very little energy, but the previous battle with Hercules has already consumed most of his physical strength and magic power.
As a masterless servant, he can only perform marginal Op with Atalanta at this moment.
As for Artemis and Euryale, apart from the advantages of their Noble Phantasms, they are undoubtedly at the bottom among all the Heroic Spirits. They can probably compete with Jason without the Holy Grail. Once they lose their safe output environment, it is easy for them to die.
Therefore, whether this battle can be fought now depends on whether Lin Qi and Asterios can hold on in the front. Otherwise, once Hercules or Hector rushes into the formation, Lin Qi's side will be defeated immediately!
-
Medea's [Field Construction] skill level is very high, and during this period of time, she has built a simple but sufficient magic field around herself.
Under the protection of the magic formation, Medea and Jason did not need to worry too much about the arrow attacks from Lin Qi's side. At least as long as they were not more powerful than Atalanta's treasure attack just now, they could easily block them.
They also have a secure output environment, so isn't it obvious what they should do?
It seemed as if an endless number of Dragon Fang soldiers attacked in waves, making the archers exhausted from dealing with them. The occasional appearance of Shadow Followers also required them to be extremely alert.
The archers were unable to provide effective support, so Lin Qi went to resist Hector. Asterios, the only one left in the front, had already shown signs of decline at the hands of Hercules.
