Chapter 120: Alchemy

Accurately penetrated the spinal cord and killed it in an instant, Maiya got up from the sniper spot, aimed at the supine Kiri with Calico, and cautiously approached it.

"Miss Maiya, no!"

Alice Phil, who had noticed the trap earlier, sent a word of warning, but it was too late.

Qili kept her back and did not get up. With just a wave of his arm, he threw a hidden black key. The black key that flew from low orbit tore the calf of Maiya's right foot. robbed her of the opportunity to make her next move.

Qili jumped up like a spring-loaded machine and suddenly began to rush towards Maiya. Without fear, Maiya pulled the trigger.

But Qili just covered her head with her hands, and didn't dodge at all. The monk's robes are made of thick Kevlar fiber all the way down to the sleeves. And it was framed with a protective charm specially made by the Church Practitioner. With a 9mm caliber pistol bullet, it cannot penetrate even at very close range. Even so, the kinetic energy of the 250 FootPound bullets fired in 10 bursts per second continued to impact Qili's whole body like a metal bat slamming. But his muscular armor, which had been exercised to the limit, completely protected his bones and internal organs in that impact.

Maiya noticed that Qili was covered in bulletproof equipment, and immediately threw away Caliko and pulled out the survival knife from his thigh. In contrast to Kevlar fibers, which are resistant to bullets, they are very easy to cut off by sharp blades. If the gun doesn't work, you can only survive in close combat.

While the barrage was interrupted, Qili pulled out a new black key in each of his hands again. From the left and right, he launched a cross slash at Maiya. However, Maiya was not sluggish at all by the injury to her right foot. Bounce back the black key combo with the heavy dagger blade.

Although the black key is much longer than a dagger, it is still a knife for throwing after strengthening. In close combat, compared to the black keys, which lack balance due to the extremely short handle, Maiya's large dagger has an overwhelming advantage due to its agility.

"It works!"

Maiya rushed over in a half-sacrificing posture. The black key should be very difficult to defend against attacks at this distance, and even if you are hit by a counterattack, the chance of being seriously injured is very low.

Qili also caught the dagger in Maiya's right hand with the black key of her right hand. It was supposed to rely on the length of the blade to fight back, and the sword shadow that staggered with the dagger stabbed through.

Maiya, who had been prepared for this for a long time, easily dodged the counterattack. With just a slight tilt of his head, he dodged the tip of the black key and broke into the arms of his enemies.

But just when Maiya is convinced that victory is within reach, she is caught by Kiri's unexpected move.

The essentials of cross-countering: the right hand of the two interlaced Qili should hold the black key short handle of the hand is empty. He let go of his weapon in the middle of the spur.

In other words, Qili's right hand had no intention of piercing Maiya with the black keys from the beginning

Fingers that protruded like a vice-like grabbed Maiya's right hand.

The towering black-clad tall man bent down softly like a snake and snuck under Maiya's right arm. In the next moment, as if holding the injured person on her shoulder, Kiri carried Maiya's right arm from behind her shoulder.

The agent who used the black key was himself deceived by this preconceived judgment. In the midst of fatal despair, Maiya, who was helpless, finally understood. This action is Chinese boxing, Bajiquan

At the same time that Kiri's side is close to Maiya's waist. Hit Maiya with his left elbow to the heart, and at the same time give Maiya a beautiful blow with his left foot to support the leg.

Very wonderfully finished six open top elbows. After the hand holding the dagger is caught, all the movements are done in an instant. It is worthy of the routine of Bajiquan's true essence of attack and defense.

Maiya couldn't even close herself and fell heavily to the ground. Because of the too strong impact, Maiya even fell into the illusion that her hands and feet were completely off, and her whole body was paralyzed and unable to move. In his consciousness, he only felt a sharp pain in his chest from the elbow blow. It shouldn't be wrong to break two or three ribs.

Although just one blow made Kuyu Maiya fall into a state where he couldn't fight. But Qili was satisfied. Now that he knows the location of Emiya Kiritsugu, the current Kiri has no attachment to her. Qili clenched his fists in order to give her a quick fatal blow, and at that time, he saw a scene that almost made him doubt his eyes.

The embarrassed Maiya was just as surprised. Indeed, it has been said before, in the duel with Qili. Alice Phil has always been hidden and secretly supporting herself. But she should be Alice Phil who doesn't have any means of fighting other than the way of magic. Emerge from the trees. Confront Yan Feng Qili face to face.

"Madame, no!"

Maiya now left behind all the horror and embarrassment she had shown. For her, Alice Phil's crisis is more serious than her own danger.

Now, if Kiritsugu loses his wife, he swears to protect himself, and there is no more desperate crisis than this.

For Qili, this situation is somewhat incomprehensible.

I know that the demon family of Ainzberen is too focused on alchemy. I am not good at the use of the battle magic. All three Holy Grail Wars were reluctantly defeated in the prologue game. It's also because the magician clan of the North is extremely vulnerable to actual combat. Judging from the situation of finding the mercenary of Emiya Kiritsugu, they should also reflect on the humiliating experience.

So, isn't it the most unlikely situation for the Master of Einsberen to appear alone in front of Qili with the female guard on the ground?

At this stage, Qili also thinks that the silver-haired woman in front of her is Saber's master. If she were to die, there would be no doubt about the defeat of Einzbelen's camp at that time.

This woman should be the king's pawn who must flee even if he sacrifices so much.

"Woman, you may be surprised, but I didn't come here to defeat you. 」

In front of the enemy's master, this is like a speech of giving up the battle. Although I don't think the other party will believe it, in short, Qili is ready to realize that it is in vain and tries to negotiate. This was too different from the development of events he had hoped for, and meeting Emiya Kiritsugu on the battlefield was the purpose of Kiritsu. Compared to this premise, the situation of the Holy Grail War can only be regarded as secondary.

Of course, I didn't expect my opponent to believe those words

"I know, Yan Feng Qili. 」

Because she didn't expect the other party to believe it, the silver-haired woman's answer made Qili even more confused.

"I know your purpose, but it's impossible to negotiate, you can't get to Emiya Kiritsugu, we'll stop you, right here!"

For Alice Fell, the tall surrogate's confused expression was a good sign. The other party is obviously underestimating himself. The enemy's intentions are his own chances of victory. I'm afraid, he knows the characteristics of Ainzbelen's magic path, and judges that she should be a magician who does not have the ability to fight directly.

Alice Phil pulled out her signature weapon, hidden in the cuffs of her coat. At first glance, it wasn't a weapon at all, it was an unreliable item. Scattered between the fingers of her hands were soft, slender metal tows.

"Madam, this man is a master of hunting magicians on behalf of the Practitioners!

Alice Fell smiled quietly at Maiya, who was crouching on the ground, screaming in pain.

In front of Maiya, who is speechless, and Kiri, who is watching in amazement, Alice Phil infuses her magic into the tinsel. Very slender wires unraveled the bundle and began to flow between the fingers of Alice Phil's hands like creatures.

Half of what we know is correct. The family magic inherited by Alice Fell is indeed the refining and creation of matter, as well as its application. And Kiritsugu can't be able to direct her aggressive magic. Originally, in terms of the rank of magician, Alice Phil was even higher than her husband. It's impossible for Kiritsugu to be her teacher on the Demon Path.

What he taught himself was not the survival of puppets. Rather, it is to sing the praises of the words "alive" with weeping, laughing, joyful, and angry.

In addition, he also taught himself the determination to live.

Half of what we know is wrong. Alice Phil already had a knack for using her magic as a means of attack. That's what she learned from her husband, who has been walking in a fighting life, and if she wants to live with him, she will one day face the test of survival. She's bound to face a fight, too.

"shapeistLeben (wreckage, give you life)!"

Through the chanting of two bars, the magic is woven in one breath. The manipulation of metal is Alice Field's true skill.

This secret technique is unmatched.

Silver filaments crisscross and depict to form complex outlines. Intertwined and combined, complex three-dimensional objects appear like rattan crafts, with fierce wings and beaks, as well as sharp hook claws. It is a delicate silver filigree handicraft based on a giant eagle.

No, it's not just replicas.

「kyeeeee!!」

With a high-pitched hiss that sounded like a metal blade slashing, the silver eagle flew from Alice Phil's hand. It was Homcruz, made live with alchemy. It is a weapon that has been given life by Alice Phil, who is now on the verge of life and death.

The flying posture like a bullet far exceeded Qili's imagination. He dodged the attack in a flicker, but the razor-sharp spout grazed the tip of his nose.

Immediately after the first blow was swung into the air, the Silver Silk Eagle hovered over Qili's head. This time he pounced with the hook claws of his two feet. The goal is to save face. However, this is not a one-sided defensive war for the agent. Unafraid of the sharpness of his hook claws, he struck at the eagle with a powerful fist.

The rapidly descending eagle was no longer able to change its orbit. The fist simply struck the eagle directly in the abdomen.

"Huh!?"

However, it was Qili who made a sound of surprise. The eagle reverted to an amorphous silver filament as it was hit by a fist, this time wrapping around his right fist like a creeper.

Although he immediately pulled it with his left hand, the silver wire even wrapped around this hand. The silver thread that had just flown in the air in the form of an eagle was firmly bound to Qili's hands like handcuffs.
