Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 478 The King's Hometown

Meanwhile, at the opera house.

The group had arrived at their final destination: the opera house.

But there was no one there, nothing at all.

"Damn it, didn't that guy in blue say he was going to scout ahead? Why didn't he even give us a reply? Could it be that he got tricked by that cute girl?"

Potio looked around, but his Heroic Spirit had vanished.

After examining the area carefully, Saber shook his head. "There are no signs of a battle. It doesn't seem like Lancer's style."

"Are you lost?" Sand Gold asked.

"Maybe he went fishing." Xing shrugged.

Archer pondered carefully, "Based on what I know of that man, he might even stir up some pointless arguments, then turn around and leave satisfied..."

“Indeed.” Saber nodded.

Just then, Miss Note appeared in front of them.

The robin was overjoyed. "Miss Note! I'm so glad you're alright—"

Sand Gold spoke up at this moment, realizing that something was wrong.

"Wait, everyone, something seems amiss. Miss Yin Fu, haven't you seen Lancer here before?"

Miss Yin Fu nodded, saying without any hesitation, "That's right. He came to the Grand Theater intending to get straight to the point, to pin the investors to the curtain with his spear. I wholeheartedly agree with his assessment..."

"People who don't know manners should be nailed to the wall."

"However, it was not easy to obtain this second life. I still have unfulfilled wishes, so I asked him to rest for a while."

"At the same time, I must ask everyone to take a short break... until the investor finishes the ceremony."

Don't underestimate us!

Archer drew his short sword, ready to shoot, but somehow golden threads had already wrapped around his arm.

"How is this possible?" Archer was shocked, and the next second he was bound.

Saber reacted quickly, but she was still no faster than Jin Si, and was hung up before she could even draw her sword.

"No need to worry, there will be no pain whatsoever. Please shed the fiery passion and ambition on stage... just like the actors behind the curtain removing their fatigue and makeup... and get some rest," Miss Note said calmly.

"No, Miss Yin Fu!"

The robin tried to stop Caster with a Command Spell, but was also lifted up by Caster's golden threads.

"When did this guy become so strong?"

As they were talking, Xing was also hoisted up.

"I don't know, maybe it's due to copyright issues."

The gold dust, which was also being hung up, shook its head.

"Let the curtain fall, the lament of a mediocre man's fleeting life!"

As Miss Note's voice faded, the enormous red curtain slowly descended, immersing everyone in a mesmerizing illusion.

At the last moment, Hoshino grasped Saber's hand.

........

When Xing opened her eyes again, she found herself in a vast wilderness.

Everything here seems so unreal, yet so familiar.

Saber also appeared beside Hoshino.

She looked around, her eyes widening in disbelief. "Where am I...?"

"How is this possible... Why am I in Britain?"

"Where did she take us?" Xing rubbed his head.

"Wait? This is your hometown? Isn't it next door?"

"Hey! Um... Miss Yin Fu, this is a mistake, this is Honkai Impact 3rd!" Xing shouted in protest.

Saber then spoke up: "No, Master, I am certain that this is my homeland."

“I remember this place…every single blade of grass and every tree. The fields, the scent of the wind, and this town…Is Caster trying to trap me with these memories?”

"Hmph, this town is where I started as a knight." Saber scoffed.

Xing stared at her in disbelief, wondering if she had accidentally wandered into another scene.

Just then, a young neighbor came over.

"Yo! It's Artorius! Are you here to draw your sword too?"

“Since you call me ‘Artorius’… then you are Aiden?” Saber realized.

“I knew it,” said the young neighbor. “That magician Merlin bragged so earnestly, ‘Whoever pulls a sword out of a stone will become the King of Britain.’ Even a novice knight couldn’t resist trying it.”

"However, I really can't imagine a small person like you drawing the chosen sword and becoming king."

Saber nodded. "...That's true, I think so too. I hope the Sword in the Stone will choose the right king."

“Master, let’s go…” Saber looked at Xing, her voice filled with determination.
