Chapter 820: We Can Temporarily Act Together
No matter what kind of competitive game it is, the referee should have a transcendent status.
Anyone who contradicts the referee should be punished according to the degree. Only in this way can the referee's majesty be demonstrated, so that the referee's decision has enough weight, and the decision he makes is enough to convince the public.
If the referee doesn't even care about being collided by a player, then her authority as a referee has been completely ruined. If anyone dares to bully her, her ruling itself will not be strong at all. Who will listen to her?
Such an arbiter is not so much a referee as it is a third party independent of the black and red sides.
"Do you believe it or not, if you don't pay any attention to the fact that the Red Lancer is killing you, then the Red side will definitely come to trouble you one after another in the future?"
Lucia looked at the blond girl in front of her and said coldly: "Your real name is Joan of Arc, right? I recognize your achievements in saving the country, but do you really have the experience as a referee?"
Liu Xia has never been a referee, but he at least knows what a referee should look like.
But this saint…she may indeed have the heart to treat both black and red fairly, but she probably doesn’t even know what a real referee should look like.
After all, they are ancient people. Even if they have the common sense given by the Great Holy Grail, they understand their responsibilities, but their thinking is limited, and their ideas are ultimately different from modern people.
Furthermore, is a selfless person like the Saint really suitable to be a selfless referee?
Did the Great Holy Grail really choose the wrong person?
"This...this..."
Under Lucia's repeated questioning, even Joan of Arc couldn't help but froze, her mouth filled with anticipation, her delicate face that seemed to have no flaws could not help but blush slightly, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.
Even she had to admit that what Liu Xia said did make sense.
Although her previous action of not intervening in the battle seemed fair, it was actually picking up sesame seeds and throwing away the watermelon. She picked up the fairness in front of her, but threw away the greater fairness.
If the dignity of the referee cannot even be maintained, then even if the battle in front of him is fair, how can it be fair to the entire Holy Grail War?
Compared with the fairness of a mere battle, perhaps the majesty of the referee is the real guarantee of fairness?
"...What you said does make sense."
Jeanne lowered her head and pondered for a long time, and finally had to admit this. She took a deep breath, then discarded the hesitation and slight reluctance in her heart, and apologized to Liu Xia with a sincere expression.
"Maybe I really didn't handle this matter well. I'm sorry. I will find a way to remedy it."
Even though she said this, she always felt a little weird in her heart.
She is obviously the Ruler and the adjudicator chosen by the Great Holy Grail. Why should she bow her head and admit her mistakes to Saber the Black, who is one of the contestants, and admit that she did not do well?
For a time, Jeanne's heart became extremely complicated, as if a five-flavor bottle had been knocked over.
"You don't need to apologize to me. After all, I'm not your master."
Lucia shook her head and did not accept Joan's apology. Then she changed the subject and got down to business without any foreshadowing.
"Although Black's order is for me to win you over, the matter itself still depends on your thoughts... I plan to go find the Red Lancer next, what are your plans?"
Karna had just been severely injured by him, and he would never be able to heal in a short time.
If this is the case, then you can't miss this good opportunity. You have to try to kill him and make him withdraw from the game. After all, he is indeed a strong enemy. The sooner he withdraws, the more beneficial it will be to Black.
"I don't favor black or red."
Joan of Arc gave the answer without much hesitation. Although she did learn something from Lucia, this was not the reason for her preference.
Rather, it was because she thought Lucia's words made sense that she became more determined to maintain fairness.
"However, I plan to find the master of the Red Lancer. I must find out why he plans to kill me."
Jeanne spoke again, but she was discouraged and sighed softly.
"However, although my privilege allows me to know Lancer's location, I don't know where his Master is... It might be difficult to find his Master."
The Ruler class has many privileges.
In addition to being able to see through the Servant's true name, he can also sense the Servant's location.
As long as the servant is within ten kilometers of her, she can accurately know the location of the other party, and even Assassin's aura can't hide it from her.
In other words, as long as she walked around Tulifas, which was the battlefield, she would definitely be able to find the Red Lancer, but she could not directly find the location of the Red Lancer Master.
After all, if the Master opposite is alert and worried that someone will come to his door, for the sake of safety, he may be more inclined to hide and may not stay with his servants - a severely injured servant may not be able to protect him. Keep yourself safe.
"I can find it."
Liu Xia raised her brows slightly, then raised her hand and pointed at her own eyes, "My magic eye is the highest level of future vision. It can perfectly achieve any result you want. Finding the master and servant of Lancer on the red side is a piece of cake."
"If you are willing, we can act together in dealing with the red Lancer."
Jeanne suddenly understood.
Indeed, she could also find the skill [Future Vision] from Liu Xia's ability value panel, and this skill actually included a divine-level magic eye, which really shocked her.
Because this means that in the battle with the Red Lancer just now, he actually did not use all his strength at all, otherwise he might not even be able to protect Karna from the golden armor that is difficult to destroy by the gods.
"I understand, then let me use the power of your magic eyes, but I will not return the favor."
Joan of Arc agreed very calmly, "Besides, I will not take the initiative to become an enemy of the red side without confirming that the master of the red side has clear hostility towards me, okay?"
"make a deal."
Liu Xia nodded in agreement with an indifferent expression.
Being able to act with Ruler is a deterrent in itself. Even if she doesn't take action with him, her identity itself has special value.
"Then let me pack my luggage first... ah."
Jeanne just turned around, and then she couldn't help but froze. She looked at the suitcase in front of her, with a tired look on her face.
"Why did this happen again..."
Liu Xia looked over in response.
Joan of Arc's suitcase had been broken at some point. All the clothes and sundries inside were scattered on the dirt floor, and there were signs of being burned on many items. They should have belonged to Karna before. caused by the first wave of raids.
There were even private clothes such as stockings and underwear, and they looked obviously unwearable...the stockings were all black, and the underwear was one set of white and one set of pink.
"Please don't look!"
After noticing Lucia's gaze, Jeanne suddenly came to her senses. A slightly shy blush appeared on her face, and she immediately cast an oppressive look at Lucia.
The fingers of her hands were raised at some point, as if she was planning to poke Lucia's eyes out.
