Chapter Seventy-Five: Paralyzed (Part II)
"Let me leapfrog your thunderbolts. β
After saying that, the figure of the red rider stopped instantly, and disappeared in the next instant.
No, it's not that it's gone, it's that the forward rush is so fast that it looks like it's gone.
Just as he disappeared, a strong sense of crisis drove Shinji to pull out a thunderbolt almost instinctively. Because it is instinctive, the landing point, trajectory, and timing of this thunderbolt are all an unprecedented peak.
But such an excellent thunderbolt operation still failed to stop the rider's assault, and at the moment when the thunder and lightning crossed, he jumped up directly and crossed the thunder and lightning hurdle with a hurdle - a veritable leap.
In a few trials, Rider has discovered Shinji's shortcomings.
No matter how fast the thunderbolt is, he can't keep up with his speed after all, and the so-called prediction is enough to do things that he can't predict - such as jumping.
No qualified warrior will let his feet leave the ground at will, because once a human without wings leaves the ground, it means that he has lost his focus point and mobility, and he will not be able to dodge at all when he encounters an attack at this time. If you have the ability to dodge lightning on the ground, why take the risk of jumping?
With this judgment, the Red Rider successfully broke through the barrier of thunder and lightning.
Now, between him and Shinji, there is no barrier.
"It's over!"
Rider, who was confident in his speed, raised his fist, knowing that with the high speed bonus, this punch would be enough to shatter the bones of the Black Assassin!
To Rider's surprise, the Black Assassin didn't make any defenses at all, nor did he dodge in a panic, he just stood there calmly, his lips open, and spit out a mantra: "Before!"
At that moment, the familiar paralysis once again invaded the body of the red rider. Although it was not as obvious as when struck by lightning, it was only slightly sore, and it lasted only a very short time, not even a breath. But at a critical moment, any negative impact can change the tide of battle.
Shen Er waited for this opportunity, and the black and gold war spear that was ready to be fired roared out, wrapped in the magic power that roared out, and stabbed fiercely at the red rider who was out of shape.
At the moment of crisis, the rider who took back control of his body gritted his teeth, his feet were directly like two iron stakes nailed into the ground, and he stopped rushing forward, and grabbed the spear edge that was close at hand with both hands.
The spear containing Ishtar's divine power sliced through the rider's immortal body, and bright red blood flowed down the black blood groove on the blade of the spear, and dripped to the ground along the opening of the blood groove.
The injuries on both hands did not diminish the strength of the Red Rider, but instead inspired him to be fierce. I only heard him roar, the muscles of his arms bulged abnormally, and the power that burst out in an instant actually suppressed Shinji, who had the bonus of "magic release" - at this time, the tip of the black gold war spear was less than three centimeters away from the heart of the rider.
Stopped a shot through the heart, the red rider did not continue to wrestle with Shen Er, but directly let go and retreated - ordinary people play like this, they will definitely be pierced by Shen Er's momentum, but the speed of the rider is far beyond Shen Er, and he got out of the attack range after a few steps.
Looking at the rider's movement speed slower than when he was rushing, Shinji secretly regretted it.
If you go back at full speed, maybe there will be a chance, but if you are so cautious, you won't have a chance. After all, he is a top-level servant, and it is not so easy to kill him if he wants to kill it.
Pulling away from a distance of almost twenty meters, the red rider stopped, his amber eyes rolling back and forth, as if looking for something, and asked uncertainly for a while, "Enchantment?"
Shinji did not have the habit of explaining the trick to the enemy, and did not answer.
The Red Rider didn't care, and nodded to himself: "It's an enchantment, yes, I can feel the connection between the magic in the air and the thunder and lightning treasure." You must have borrowed the power of the Noble Phantasm with the enchantment, which affected my movements. β
Shinji still didn't speak, but unlike just now, this time there was nothing to say, and rider had already seen through the principle of the deepened version of "numb and paralyzed".
As Rider said, he did change the tide of battle with enchantments, the latest completed enchantment.
Ever since he overthrew the Araya Zonglian, Shinji has been studying the enchantment technique. It's just that the enchantment technique left by Araya is very profound, and after studying it for several months, there is no gain. It wasn't until the first half of the year that after a death match with the "White Wing Gong", the relics were completely integrated with themselves, which opened the door to enchantment with the blessing of the relics' experience.
What's interesting is that what I thought was difficult and obscure before the entrance suddenly became simple after the entry, and in just a few dozen days, Shinji's enchantment technique has improved by leaps and bounds, I don't know if it's because the enchantment technique is difficult first and then easy, or because of the blessing of the relics, or Shinji's own talent.
Anyway, Shinji developed a new trick before crossing over, the Divine Thunder Enchantment.
The enchantment is based on the "portable enchantment" technique left by Araya, with Shinji himself as the core, and Indra and the like as the fulcrum. Originally, Shinji's current level was not enough to support such a high-level enchantment, but the enchantment technique originated from Buddhism, and the thunder and relics of Indra were both Buddhist magic weapons.
Of course, there is still a considerable gap between this kind of enchantment that relies on external objects and the "Six Realms" of Araya Zonglian, but it is undeniable that this newly completed realm is very practical.
Enchantment: Divine Thunder Enchantment: Scopes the power of Indra's thunder, the wider the coverage, the weaker the power of the thunder and lightning.
However, Shinji didn't plan to attack directly with the enchantment, and the paralyzing effect of the electric current passing through his body was what he liked. At the critical moment, the top servants also have to kneel - the red rider is the first victim.
Although he was pitted by the enchantment and suffered a big loss, the spirit of the red rider did not decrease.
"I made a mistake, I shouldn't have underestimated you because of your position, the Assassin is also a Heroic Spirit - worthy of being an opponent. β
A hero like him instinctively repels assassins who can only sneak attack, but forgets that the assassin is just a job agent, which does not mean that the Heroic Spirit itself is such an existence.
Dealing with assassins seriously is an insult to oneself, and not being serious about the heroic spirit is an insult to both sides. At this moment, the Red Rider has completely put away his contempt, and he wants to seriously defeat the enemy in front of him.
Seeing the undisguised battle intent and smile of the red rider, Shinji's expression suddenly became a little more bitter.
"If you can, it's better not to, it's worth rejoicing to be recognized by a warrior like you, but it's more troublesome. If you're looking for an opponent, I can recommend one to you, and I'm sure he'll be happy to fight you as well. β
However, the more this is the case, the more interested Shinji is in the Red Rider - this attitude of helplessness but not fear, distress but not flinching, I didn't expect to meet such a person in the Holy Grail War.
"The opponent you're talking about, I'm really curious, I can see through my immortal body, and I can still say things like thisβbut, compared to an unknown opponent, I want to knock you down - you remind me of a guy who knows he can't beat me, but still holds me back in all sorts of ways, and every time I want to fight him one-on-one, he always says something similar. β
"In that case, you and I are destined to be adversaries!O gods of Olympus, give glory and honor to this battle!
The red rider pointed to the sky with his right hand, which was still dripping blood, and that heroic posture did not change before and after death.
This time, Shen Er was paralyzed.
