"Prince Ios, please stop, you don't have the right to enter the palace!"

Seeing Ios approaching quickly on horseback, a man who looked like a captain stepped forward, holding his sword and shouting.

Ios didn't answer at all, but sandwiched his legs between the horse's back.

"Recovery—"

The horse under him neighed, and he ran faster.

Looks like Ios doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping!

Seeing this, the captain couldn't help frowning.

"Please stop being rude immediately! The current royal city is temporarily managed by the temple, and if you want to enter the palace, please ask for the permission of the bishop! He shouted at Ios, "If you continue to do your thing, we will have to do something against you......

“……”

Ios' eyes were cold, and his right hand was raised, and a raging flame was burning from it.

That shows his determination: I'd rather be strong than break in!

"All ready! Defensive formations! ”

The captain's eyes froze slightly, and he quickly retreated into the group, shouting loudly.

"Click-"

The Praetorian Guards, who had been standing on two sides, quickly closed in the middle, leaving no gaps.

Then, almost at the same time, they lowered their weights and held their shields in front of them.

Just by these few movements, you can see that they are well-trained.

"Get out of here! This is my country, not some temple breaker! ”

Ios roared, carrying the billowing flames in his right arm, and swung diagonally in front of him.

Boom Boom!

The flames turned into a dragon in the air and rushed towards the Praetorian Guards blocking the palace entrance.

Boom!

The next moment, the fire dragon collided with everyone's shields.

However, unlike the scene where we imagined that many Praetorian Guards were scattered by the impact, they actually stood firm and withstood the impact with their physical strength.

For a while, the two sides were at a stalemate!

“……”

Ios frowned.

"Is the Praetorian Guard in this era actually able to fight against magicians?" I couldn't help but be a little shocked, "Even the most elite soldiers, but it's too exaggerated!" ”

In the sixth century A.D., the mystery still remains, and the power of magic is naturally not the same as that of modern times.

When a magician is at full strength, even a large army may not be able to do anything to him. That's why Morgan has repeatedly targeted Camelot, but there's nothing we can do without Merlin.

Only magicians can deal with magicians, at least that's the truth of the current age.

"No, with the strength of those soldiers, it is impossible to fight against magic." Bai Xiang took a closer look at the battle situation, then shook his head at me and said, "You take a closer look at those people's shields." ”

"Shield......?"

Hearing Bai Xiang say this, I also hurriedly fixed my eyes.

I saw that although it was faintly visible, the surface of each soldier's shield seemed to be covered with a layer of lilac halo.

If you look closely, it is not the shield itself that is blocking Ios's magic, but the energy attached to it.

"That's ...... Magic! I couldn't help but feel moved, "Someone has attached defensive magic to these soldiers' weapons!" ”

"From there, I can faintly feel the aura of the Templar Bishop from before, I guess he did it." Bai Xiang nodded and sighed, "That guy seems to be using ordinary people as mobile weapons." ”

"How can this be, it is common sense that the battle between magicians cannot implicate ordinary people." I frowned and said, "This kind of behavior of his is a serious violation of the rules." ”

"Obviously, not every magician is as disciplined as you are." Bai Xiang shook his head and said, "At least that's the case in this era. ”

At this moment, in front of the palace, although many forbidden troops blocked Ios's blow by cheating, they were not so comfortable.

Perhaps the magic on the surface of the shield can block the magic, but it can't filter out the oppression caused by the huge energy.

The Praetorian Guards all turned red, almost trying their best to maintain a defensive posture, and there was no longer any energy to care.

And that's exactly what gave Ios a chance.

In the blink of an eye, the expressionless Ios had already rushed in front of all the Praetorian Guards, less than ten meters away!

The Praetorian Guards, who had no ability to move, could only watch him.

Many of them also showed fear in their eyes, and even closed their eyes in despair.

In such a motionless state, Ios can use his weapons at close range and kill them one by one!

And they can't resist, because as long as they move their bodies slightly, they will be severely defeated by the previous fire dragon if there is a crack in the defensive formation!

But the next moment, Ios suddenly grabbed the horse's reins with both arms, and then lifted it up with all his might!

"Hiss——!"

The horse neighed, and under the shocked eyes of all the Praetorian Guards, it kicked the ground on all fours and took off into the air!

Ios led the horses and took a long leap over their heads in a beautiful and dashing manner.

Click!

Immediately, the horses' hooves landed again in the rear of the Praetorian Guards.

Without stopping, Ios galloped into the gates of the palace.

Before entering the gate, he also looked back and gestured to me and Baixiang who were still outside.

“…… I can't be so chic, I'm sure I'll be left behind halfway. ”

Even though I understood what Ios meant, I smiled wryly.

I still know how many catties I have.

"Eimiya-sama, please leave it to me."

At this moment, Bai Xiang rode up to my side and stretched out a slender arm to me.

"Understood, please."

In an emergency, there was no reason to refuse, so I nodded.

Then I quickly reached out and shook my hands with Bai Maan without hesitation.

"Lady Emiya, please hurry. Don't let go no matter what. ”

Baixiang whispered to me, then took a deep breath, and the waist and abdomen on the horseback slightly deposited strength.

"Drink!"

With a soft shout, she suddenly flew into the air from the horse's back!

And with me, who was holding on to her arm.

Baiyan has a slender body and a light weight, but he can easily carry me into the air without any effort.

Obviously, she has already reached the peak of the use of physical strength.

Hmmm-

In this way, the two of us flew directly behind Ios and flew directly past the interception of the Praetorian Guards, and fell behind them.

Then, too, we ran quickly into the open palace gates.

Luckily, the Praetorian Guards didn't expect us to break through their blockade, so the gate wasn't closed.

"Come on, Shirou, let's close the door together! Don't let those damn Praetorian Guards in! ”

As soon as he rushed through the gate, he saw Ios flash out.

These two doors are unusually heavy, but with the strength of Ios and I, no one can close them alone.
