Chapter 152: Companions
"It's hard to say."
A man's voice rang out again in the shadows, a sharp and powerful sound piercing through the air, and Ike's doppelganger flew out as if it had been hit with a sledgehammer, falling to the ground and disappearing.
A masked guy in a pitch-black cloak stepped out from the direction of the bullet and stood in front of the terrorists who had retreated.
"Comrade C?! I didn't expect you to come too. The man with glasses said in surprise, "Does this operation planned by me seem so unreliable?" β
"No, it's almost perfect. But there is always something uncertain about warfare, just like the guys in front of you. The masked man replied, "Since the battle has been successful, there is no need to stick to the royal family." β
βγγγ You're right. β
"That weird outfit ... It's just that it isolates magical discovery, right? Ikemi opened his eyes.
"That's right, although it's not very pretty, but it can indeed release a small area of enchantment that refuses to detect magic, specifically restraining guys with high perception." The masked man replied, "Otherwise, there is probably no way to get you hurt so easily, right?" Ike. β
"It was my mistake, I didn't expect a mere terrorist to have such a high level of technical ability... No, it should be said that it was able to find a powerful assistant. Ike sneered, "That enchantment device is a gospel of miniaturization stability, right?" β
"Unfortunately, the person who funded our equipment didn't tell us in detail." The masked man replied.
"Well, as long as I catch you, I can ask slowly-"
The sound of breaking through the air sounded again, and a puff of smoke and dust was set in front of Ike's impartial steps, and after the smoke, a deep pit two fingers thick appeared in front of him.
"Heavy sniper rifles?" Ike's face was not good.
"That's right, in this environment, no one but you can avoid sniping, right?" The masked man replied, "Now that you've recaptured the princess, how about we end this one?" β
"You ... Who are they? β
"Hmph, we're just our fellows gathered to sanction a certain dictator, the 'Imperial Liberation Front', that's our name."
"Dictator ... There is indeed such a statement. β
"That's it!"
In the middle of the conversation, a high-pitched female voice sounded from behind, and the railway gendarmerie, led by Claire and Sarah, rushed from behind.
"Oh, is it already here?" The masked man looked at the rushing man without the slightest surprise, and took a switch from his pocket and flipped it.
Suddenly the sound of explosions rang out from the ceiling, and the underground graveyard shook violently with a series of explosions, and countless dust and rubble fell from the ceiling.
"High explosives?"
"Goodbye, then, guys." After the masked man finished speaking, he led several people to rush to the exit behind him.
"You guys! It's going to collapse here, come here! Sarah shouted in greeting.
"Lane, come and pick up your sister!"
"Understood!"
"Hmm-you're kidding, right? Did those guys actually blow up the underground waters? Macchias, who was staggering forward from the tremors, spoke in a panic.
"If you don't want to die, run away and don't talk." Ike yelled "Sarah, what is the approximate extent of the explosion?!" β
"Judging by the sound, there are at least three hundred sub-distances! Where the hell did these guys get all that explosives! Sarah replied loudly.
A loud bang rang out again in a series of tremors, and the two huge stone pillars shattered into several boulders and fell, along with the roof that had fallen together from the loss of support, blocking the path of the crowd.
"Just kidding. At this time! β
"Tsk, hey Ike! Think of a way! Sarah shouted.
"Hey, it's- I'm sorry, little princess, you're going to stand up by yourself." Ike opened his mouth and put the princess of Alfin down from the princess, and brutally snatched the guide gun from the gendarmerie's hand, smearing the blood from his waist that had not yet coagulated on his hands.
"What is thisβwhat is this going to do?"
looked at Ike in disbelief as he stopped not far from the boulder pile. Sarah asked.
"Give me peace." Ic, whose eyes were red, didn't reply, and the manic fighting spirit frantically poured into his hands and the guide gun he was holding. The blood on his hands seemed to glow red, and the compressed fighting spirit made a distorted sound from the steel guide gun.
"Open it for me!" Ike shouted, alternating between his left and right hands as he threw the guide gun, which had twisted like an iron rod, into the boulder pile.
Two detractor guns filled with fighting spirit exploded in the boulder pile like explosives, and with the impact of the throw, the obstacles that were blown into gravel scattered in front of them.
"Let's go!" Ike shouted, picking up the Elphine princess once more and rushing to the open passage.
γγγγγγ
"Ha, ha, ha, finallyβ"
"Saved?"
"Looks like so, yes." Sarah replied with a sigh of relief after looking around and the ceiling warily.
"Tsk!" Relieved of the strengthened Ike's eyes for a moment of dizziness, the sudden dimming of his vision made his steps soften.
"Mr. Ike?!" Alfen, who was put down by Ike, hurriedly supported Ike, but because of his lack of physical strength, he was pressed by Ike's weight and fell to the ground with him.
"Instructor Ike?!"
"Her Royal Highness Princess?!"
βγγγ Fortunately, the bleeding from the wound has long stopped, but because of the relationship between strengthening and bleeding, the physical strength is not enough. Sarah stepped forward, observed for a moment, and then replied.
"Apparently Sarah asked Ike to use his combat skills." Filipino despise.
"How can you blame me, in that situation, he was the only one who could open the way." Sarah argued, "Although I didn't expect it to be so physically demanding. β
"What the hell is thatβ" Lane looked at Sarah.
"Even if it's a combat skill, this power is also... Macchias likewise asked.
"This is his master skill during the hunting period, and the power of the attack is strengthened several times by compressing the fighting energy. It's just that because the weapon is always damaged, and it seems to be quite a burden on the body, he has always used it as a throwing skill. β
"Nonsense, I'm not an extraordinary saint, how can I be able to use the Holy Technique so easily, if I don't have enough blood, I can't use it so quickly." Echo, who had regained his sight, sat up from the ground and lifted up the Alphine Princess, who was still pressed under him even though she tried to turn sideways as much as possible.
"Captain, the intersection over there is completely blocked." In the final gendarmerie of the crowd reported.
"Since you can't catch up... All in all, leave those guys alone for the time being, and do your best to restore order and stability in the imperial capital. Be sure to rebuild the imperial capital as quickly as possible! β
"Yes!"
