Chapter 245: The Servant vs. the Shadow Servant
It wasn't just Achilles who encountered the Shadow Servant's obstruction, but so did the others in the chariot.
When Caron encountered the turbulence of space, he quickly pulled the Royal Lord Corres, so the two were not separated.
As soon as the spatial distortion subsided, a dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, giving no time to react at all. That is, an all-round archer like Charon, who knows everything, can use the bow as a club and wield it impenetrable, and if it were Atalanta, he might have been injured in this round of sneak attacks, let alone protect Kaures in the rain of arrows.
After a rain of arrows, Caron's backhand is a set of "five arrows" and colors. Although he didn't see the enemy, it was not difficult to calculate the exact location by the angle and strength of the arrow's attack with his ability.
And the identity of the enemy has long been confirmed, and the Shadow Archer, who has been hindered by him and Atalanta since the beginning of the air battle, is an archer who has reached the pinnacle of archery.
"Master, don't leave my back, take care to protect yourself. ”
"Understood, Primordial Spirit Raptor of Prey!"
Corres unleashed the Beast Spirit as fast as he could.
……
Atalanta came to the enclosed room, which was small in size and surrounded by solid walls, as if intent on sealing off her steed feet in this way.
In the center of the room stood a burly man shirtless, and although his body was made of dark shadows, Atalanta could still clearly see the man's knotted bulging muscles.
The man's weapons were two large swords of strange shape. Weapons that normally a Servant would have to use with both hands, but he held them in one hand, and they seemed effortless. Just looking at this posture, Atalanta felt as if her chest was being pressed and she couldn't breathe.
But none of these are the trickiest things, the trickiest thing is the aura on the man's body - the man in front of him has similar qualities to himself. That's not what humans should have, it's the breath of a beast.
If Atalanta is a cat, then this man is a wolf, a vicious wolf who tears apart and devours the prey in front of him. And now, the wolf has set its sights on the cat that broke into the chassis and could attack at any moment.
"You really picked a good prey for me. ”
The Vault of Heaven was silently drawn.
With a narrow terrain and an enemy with terrifying powers, it can be said that Atalanta fell into an absolute disadvantage from the very beginning.
But she wasn't swayed. She has been fighting all kinds of prey since she was born. Powerful prey not only does not make her feel intimidated, but rather stimulates her fighting spirit.
Buckle an arrow and inject magic into it, and the eyes of the civet meet the eyes of the wolf.
"Dedicate this hunt to the great god Artemis!"
Let go of your fingers – the arrows shoot out a huge amount of magic, and the legendary huntress begins the hunt!
……
Because of the Judge's exceptional level of magic, Joan of Arc is the only one who has not been affected by the spatial warp. However, her current situation is the most dangerous of them all.
The chariot disappeared, and the body naturally fell.
At this moment, a black shadow jumped out of the bushes below and launched an attack on the girl who was in mid-air.
Thanks to her powerful perception abilities, Joan of Arc was prepared before the shadow could take off, adjusting her body position and launching a face-to-face attack.
However, the banner waved with great force had no effect on the attackers. The black shadow with his bare hands skillfully avoided the tip of the holy flag, and with one hand on the flagpole, he actually climbed the holy flag, and the remaining hands and feet were not idle, aiming at Joan of Arc's head and face and slamming continuously.
The attack speed was so fast that even the A-rank "Revelation" didn't have time to react. In the short few seconds from the air to the ground, Joan of Arc has been attacked dozens of times, and suddenly his eyes are full of stars, and his whole person is blinded.
After landing, the black shadow not only had no intention of slowing down its attack, but because it had freed one hand, its attack speed became faster.
In desperation, Joan of Arc could only liberate the Holy Banner again. With absolute defensive power, temporarily keep the enemy out of the barrier. However, this approach is not a long-term solution.
The Noble Phantasm consumes a huge amount of mana, and when the Noble Phantasm is released, Joan of Arc itself must remain stationary and hold the flag, which is equivalent to a shrunken turtle that cannot move, cannot fight back, and can only be beaten passively - and there is a limit to the damage this turtle shell can withstand.
The biggest flaw of the Holy Banner is that it accumulates damage every time it is used, and when the damage accumulates to a certain extent, the Holy Banner will shatter and become unusable. And after many liberations, there are now fine cracks on the flag of the irises.
It is necessary to figure out a way before the flag reaches its limit.
Because it's a servant who has recently connected to the Great Holy Grail, the spell he has can't be effective against enemies, and all he can rely on is the skill of "seeing through his real name".
Shaking his head, quickly dispelling the dizziness from the blow, Joan of Arc was finally able to focus on the sneaking Shadow Servant.
It was a male servant, handsome and well-proportioned, with some pattern carved on his naked back, but it was obscured by the dark shadow.
At the same time, his real name and basic information naturally appeared in front of him.
Job: Assassin
Real name: Yan Qing
Seeing the name, combined with the knowledge bestowed by the Holy Grail, Joan of Arc instantly understood everything.
Tianqiaoxing, the prodigal son Yanqing, one of the characters in the "Water Margin", one of the four classic Chinese classics, is strong in martial arts, especially famous for his boxing skills. A martial art in the Chinese martial arts world, "Lost Trace Boxing", is said to have been passed down by Yan Qing, so it is also known as "Yan Qing Boxing".
The first essence of "Yanqing Boxing" is "speed", as the ancestor of the founding sect of "Yanqing Boxing", Yan Qing has undoubtedly reached the highest level of this boxing technique, and only in this way can he play a series of slams that even Joan of Arc is dazzled and has no time to react, and the "Chinese martial arts" skills that are up to the EX level in the skill panel also provide strong evidence.
For Joan of Arc, Yan Qing is the enemy with the worst aspect. The pinnacle of boxing made it difficult for her to deal with it, and the mysterious and unpredictable smart body movement cut off the possibility of her retreat. Coupled with Joan of Arc's own lack of offensive Phantasm, it is not difficult to understand that this situation would develop.
What to do?
I can't fight and fight, I can't escape and I can't escape, can I use that treasure to die together?
No, no, that's not what to use right now.
There was only one option left to call for reinforcements.
Achilles, Atalanta, and Charon should be in a similar situation to themselves, and it may be dangerous to call them rashly.
Astolfo is destroying the black coffin, no.
Avisbroon and Shinji are preparing secret weapons, and they can't.
Mordred and the Master Lion are in danger if they are separated.
The remainder...... Well, it's up to you!
"In the name of Ruler, Joan of Arc, I give orders with a commanding spell!"
PS: Yan Qing is a fictional character, and the "Lost Fist" passed down by Yan Qing is just a descendant pretending to be in the name of Yan Qing. However, because it is widely spread and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the resulting belief has sublimated the existence of "Yan Qing" to the "Throne of the Heroic Spirit", and has become an overhead Heroic Spirit that does not really exist.
