Chapter XXIV

William Orwell was on a mountain road without light, looking straight into the darkness.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After about ten minutes, he picked up the Ascalon on the ground.

Sensing the aura of the others, William turned away with ease.

"The third princess is over there. ”

This is all too familiar, hence the voice of the Knight Chief.

"But why are you standing in the way here? As one of the members of the Right Seat of the Roman Orthodox God, the Water of the Rear, there should be no reason for you to put yourself in danger for the sake of the third princess of our country, right?"

The evil one of Honkai did not speak, but answered with action.

He swept the 3.5-meter-long 200-kilogram piece of iron in his hand.

The sound of tearing through the air can be heard.

Then, there was the flash of explosion.

William swung his greatsword back, and with the sharp and thick nail back part of the back of the sword's back, he knocked the huge rock beside him away. There aren't many people who can see this clearly.

The nearby mountain exploded as if it were exploding. A large amount of sand and gravel rolled down the side of the mountain, completely blocking the narrow mountain road behind William. In this way, while preventing the third princess Verian from being pursued, William himself has no way back.

Compared to the shocked knights, who were on high alert, their leader, who was also his old friend, just nodded quietly.

"I see, no matter which faction you belong to, what you should do will not change. Sure enough, there is your style of thinking. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

William held the heavy Ascalon with one hand and swept his gaze around.

The many knights in silver armor have been surrounded into a semicircle with a radius of about 30 meters with themselves as the center. Swords, spears, axes, bows, clubs, and other weapons of all kinds glittered in the moonlight.

The number is close to forty.

Looking at the Knight Commander standing in the center, William's lips moved slightly.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ That's adding to the death toll. ”

Hearing this, the murderous aura of the knights surrounding him immediately rose. Sure enough, however, the Knight Commander only nodded bluntly.

"Although Catina has increased its strength to a certain extent, there are probably not many people who can compete with you at your level. ”

As he spoke, the Knight Master pointed his thumb to his chest.

Then, a sentence was spoken.

"Let's duel!"

"It's a veritable battlefield. I have no interest in noble aristocratic etiquette. If you really want to fight, let's go together! If you don't want to die in vain, you can retreat immediately!"

"Don't worry!"

The Knight Captain waved his hand slightly.

At some point, he had an extra long sword about three centimeters wide in his hand.

It was a long sword with an 80-centimeter blade that was used by knights to control their horses while fighting. However, on that silvery surface, it was rough covered with a reddish-black substance.

"This is a classical duel to the death!"

"Goo-goo-goo" bubbles bubbled on the surface of the red-black sword in the Knight Chief's hand.

It's not a simple chemical bubble. I saw that the bubbles had risen to the size of a basketball, and the width of the sword was obviously huge, and the huge bubbles suddenly swelled out dozens or hundreds. In the next instant, the outlines of those bubbles cracked.

And what emerges is a brand new blade.

It was a three-meter-long greatsword like the Ascalon William wielded.

"Florentine. ”

This is the name that exists in ancient legends. A legendary magic sword that is enhanced by the blood forged with slain enemies, and each time you kill a strong enemy, it increases its strength and sharpness.

"The 10 years you've been away from are here. I'm not the same person I was when I was knocked out by you at Dover!"

"What kind of results have you achieved in your cultivation in the past ten years, after ten years, let me test it!"

This is a signal.

The fierce conflict between the mercenaries and the knights, each holding an artifact that surpasses that of mortals to slay monsters, begins.

-------------------

On the other side, Aikawa held a spiritual suit for communication in his hand and listened to the information of the knight faction on the side.

"Uh-huh...... So the hedgehog head escaped from the cargo car with the female magician of the Light of Rebirth?"

Ha——。 Aikawa sighed exaggeratedly.

"Really, it's a speechless situation. It's still the same peach blossom luck as always, that guy. For him, this situation is normal. What? After that, he tried to dive into the river but failed? he fell gorgeously to the surface of the water and was washed downstream? and yet he seemed to be picked up by the third princess, who was also on the run, and was now in a fierce battle with the pursuing knights? What kind of enviable, jealous and hateful treatment, bastard!!"

Throwing the communication device in his hand, the angry Aikawa sat on the knight who collapsed to the ground.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The knight who was sat without dignity - there was no reaction.

Completely unconscious.

Even the thought of regaining consciousness could not enter the brain for a short time.

This is the same for all the riders in the car.

"Ah...... Ahh

"Sister Angelina, don't make a sound!The more this happens, the calmer you should be! If the monster below hears it, it's over!!"

"Can't you just be quiet?"

Half-squinting to alert the panicked two, Janis carefully observed the situation in each carriage, and then came to the result - all the "knights" in the entire train were unconscious, except for the captured nuns. Without exception.

Looking at the nuns in the carriage whose shoulders were trembling, Janis gritted her teeth fiercely.

(This one is the strongest...... οΌ‰

The whole process of seeing it from the top of the train comes to mind.

It was a complete surprise to everyone.

The train suddenly fell out like a braid - it didn't happen.

As a joke, the ground in front of the rails was all brokenβ€”and there was none.

Like the hands of giants in Norse mythology, the high-speed train is forced to stop - and it is not.

Suddenly, suddenly, naturally. The man appeared in the carriage directly below them.

It doesn't matter if you jump in through the window, open the door of the previous car and sneak into the next car, or hide under your seat from the start and get out at the right time.

Maybe that's what I care about, but at that time, Janis and the others didn't think about it, they just watched what Aikawa did next.

"β€”though I'd love to do something fun like I usually do. But, you see, it's rare to be in England, and it's interesting that something like that happens...... Well, so there's nothing wrong with following that boring knightly rule. ”

Probably because I can't think of it when I think about it, I can't think of it.,casually said to the knight who was willing to fool the past directly to the knight who surrounded him.。

"Let's duel. ”

So, said dignifiedly.

"Classical, one-to-one. Time is unlimited. It ends until one of the parties loses combat combat or is killed. How? Simple, right?"

I don't understand at all.

Not only the knights who surrounded Aikawa, but even Janis and the others did not understand why Jun Aikawa would make such a "boring (unnecessary)" opinion at such a time when such a place (train) was surrounded (surrounded) (full-scale civil strife in Britain).

It's obviously on the battlefield.

Obviously, he has that kind of power.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What stupid things are being said. ”

A knight said. Then, as if signaling, all the knights raised their weapons and rushed forward.

No one took that sentence seriously.

"Aha!!"

Except for Jun Aikawa.

……

After that, the battle ended in an hour.

One hour, the whole process is "one-to-one"

No matter how much the others cut, stab, kick, hit. Aikawa only fought against the first person who rushed up. It wasn't until that person was completely unconscious that he shifted his target and "duel" with the next person. And then the cycle repeats.

Truth be told, when the fifth man fell, Janis didn't dare to look down. The knights with the protection of the "All England Continent" were knocked to the ground one by one as if they were waiting to be beaten up - this is no longer an unmatched problem, the two sides are not in the same dimension at all.

(Monster - no.) οΌ‰

Janis faintly dismissed the idea.

(This is human.) οΌ‰

A human being who is stronger than his head.

"So...... What are you going to do next? Are you going to find the Lord, or are you going to meet the Knight Master, or are you going to find the princess?

At this time, Aikawa, who had been talking to himself, turned his head and looked at Yanis above.

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦β€¦ Well, there is something I want to ask you about now. ”

Janis Santis, who was not surprised to be discovered, took a deep breath.

"β€”to stop the source of this chaos. The second king, Kia Lisa, go and knock her to the ground. ”

-------------------

Kamijo Dangma arrived in Fox County.

He shivered and shivered from being wet by the river, but now he did not complain about the idle work. Perhaps because of the tension in the center of the enemy deep in, the general feeling began to fade.

(Damn, where does the Eurotunnel begin?!, if only Intix hadn't been transported from there...... οΌ‰

In the mountains and forests, where there are not even decent street lights, Kamijo looks straight into the darkness.

Although she met the mysterious sorceress and the third princess Vilian along the way, neither of them was with her side now. Halfway through, he ran into a scout from the Nascent Amakusa Sect, and entrusted those two men to them. It seems that he learned from Janis that "Uejo is in Fox County", and the nascent Amakusa sect, which happened to arrive on a water rescue plane, sent scouts to search for them. …… I don't know why, as soon as Prolys saw the Amakusa-style person, she shouted, "You've been deceived, big fool!!!" Why, Kamijo tilted his head.

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌŸβ€

At this moment, Kamijo jerked his head up.

What can be heard.

In the ears of Kamijo, who was thinking about it, there was an explosion sound like a shock wave.

"What's wrong......!?"

Kamijo lowered his body meaninglessly and looked in that direction.

But of course, the other side of the darkness sees nothing.

Although it can be seen that there must be nothing good if you get close to it, you can't save Intaxis if you don't break into danger.

Kamijo slowly approached the place where the sound came from.

Along the way, although there are some fallen leaves, it is basically a narrow road surface paved with asphalt. Then at one point, the road cracked and crumbled until it became extremely difficult to walk, and finally there was even black dirt that was dug out. Huge trees were cut haphazardly.

Still, there are no street lights.

However, there is a light source.

"That's ......"

Carriage, right?

Of course, it's not just that.

There were also blades colliding with each other, and fires erupting between the steel armor.

It is a real battlefield where people fight each other.

On closer inspection, it was discovered that the carriage was not unharmed.

One of the four wheels was damaged and tilted unnaturally.

Moreover, the battle unfolded around this broken carriage. No, is it appropriate to call it a "battle"? At least, what we see in the previous article is not a scene of fighters with equal strength fighting each other.

Many knights in silver armor rushed from all angles.

Standing in the center was a man holding a large sword with a total length of more than 3 meters.

Something happened.

Kamijo's eyes couldn't catch what was really going on.

An offensive and defensive confrontation unfolded at an extremely alarming speed - as a result, a large number of sparks burst out from the silver armor and blew out one by one.

One of them rushed right next to the upper one.

This is no accident.

The man standing in the center did not turn his head, but only rolled his eyes to look at the upper strip.

Tough body.

Blue outfit.

Huge weapons.

Putting all of this together, Kamijo suddenly felt a chill. It's not just a premonition of that ambiguous feeling.,It's in the twenty-second school district of the school park city.,The "experience" that was really hunted down to almost death is warning the danger of the upper bar.。

And the culprit of all this, said after seeing Uejo's face.

"Hmph. I saw a gloomy face. ”

"The ...... of the rear Water!?"

"It's no coincidence. ”

Although the two are far apart, it does not affect the water behind to respond to the words of the previous article. Kamijo immediately raised his vigilance with his super-keen senses, and the water behind him casually pointed to the side of the carriage.

"If your long-term goal is to resolve this rebellion, and your short-term goal is to recycle the banned book catalog, then there is some consistency in our actions. ”

What?, Kamijo looked down the fingertips of the water behind him.

The door of the damaged carriage was halfway open, and through the crack in the door, the fabric of the hood of a monastic robe jumped into view. It was not an ordinary monastic robe, but a monastic robe with gold stripes on a white background, like a black tea cup.

"Intix!!"

Kamijo couldn't help but call out, but didn't respond.

"If your goal is recycling, do it quickly. In a sense, it is more dangerous than occupied London. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦οΌŸβ€

Faced with the impossibly hostile water in the rear, Kamijo could only watch in amazement.

However, the situation did not stop there.

"Hmph. It looks like the Knight Commander has been killed. ”

A sudden voice.

Kamijo and the water behind them turned their heads to look over there, and a woman stepped out of the woods.

As a member of the British royal family, she wore a red gown with fur of the same color all over the place. In his right hand, he held a sword that had neither a tip nor a blade.

"Before you can master this sword, bring me two heads. That's what I ordered...... But did it just hurt your hand? It's just a nuisance to me. ”

He was the mastermind of this rebellion.

The second royal daughter, Kia Lisa.
