Chapter 148: The First Battle, Skeleton Soldiers
"Caster, that is, the Wizard Servant." After Lie walked into the teaching building, he gave Chino a field teaching.
For the Holy Grail War, Lie still knows a lot, and if the object is Chino, he can still be a good instructor... Right?
With a "bang", the doors of the teaching building were completely closed after Lie and his party entered, and the atmosphere became even more tense.
"Whew~, fortunately, it's during the holiday." Chino cautiously followed behind Lie and said while looking around, "The students won't be coming here at this time, so you can avoid being affected..."
"No," Lie shook his head and explained, "Since you are the overseer and the latter, you will definitely be able to do it so that ordinary people will not be affected... Hawkers,After a few battles, Chino should know.ć ā
Footsteps rang out in the empty school building, which didn't look much different from usual, except for the fact that it was quiet because there were no students or teachers.
Lie had a similar experience, that is, when the Mistress of the Machine Spirit first came to this world, she once pulled Lie into the mirror world of the school.
And now in the school building shrouded in enchantment, the situation is somewhat similar to the situation back then.
The dark red sky, like the moment before dusk... Obviously it wasn't like this just now, is it because of the influence of the enemy's enchantment? However, the interior of the school building does not seem to have been affected much.
"Ahem, it's far away... Let's talk about the battle now. "Lie's soul network keeps searching the teaching building, but unfortunately due to the limited level of awakening, it can't completely envelop this teaching building for a long time.
"Chino, Zero, Konan, Konishi... We have entered the territory of the enemy, and from the very beginning there may be a dangerous situation at any time, and the enemy attack may appear from any angle..."
"Speaking of which, our luck is indeed not very good..."Lie said with a wry smile: "The personal task of obtaining the material for the return of the spirit base turned out to be a temporary follower of the same rank..."
"Isn't it fair if it's the same rank?" Chino raised her small hand and asked a question at the right time.
"That's not the case~, Master." Before Lie could open his mouth on this question, the nursery rhyme was explained first.
"As a magician, that is, Caster and Magician, home and away are still very important!" Nursery rhyme said to her Master, "As the basic ability of most Casters, 'Position Building', which is to generate enchantments. ā
"For example, in the master's home, although the power that the nursery rhyme can release is limited at present, it still generates an enchantment in the master's home, and it has a certain protective power."
"Caster's fighting in his own enchantment, that is, in his own domain, is equivalent to adding a variety of buffs, and his combat power will be increased many times... Therefore, in the Holy Grail War, if Caster has been hiding in the enchantment, he has a fairly high survival rate. ā
"I see..."Chino blinked, and said by inference, "Then, we are now in the territory of the enemy Caster, and it will be very disadvantageous." ā
As he spoke, Lie and his entourage quickly came to the top of the stairs, and then stopped there.
"Hey, it's finally there." The corners of Lie's mouth rose slightly, and he had been using the soul network to explore the traces of the other party since he came in, and it would be very troublesome if he didn't move all the time. ā
There was a sparse sound of footsteps around the area, which had been quiet, and there were some strange sounds, which made people very frightened.
Turning around, Lie looked at the four girls behind him... Chino, who was wearing a white battle uniform, and three girls in maid skirts, were ready for battle.
"Well, the first battle of the Holy Grail War." Lie raised his hand... At this moment, the sound of the staircase was getting louder and louder, and several black shadows could already be seen.
"The enemy slave is locked onto the position of the roof and starts the assault~!"
As soon as Lie's words fell, the first to rush out were Xiao Nan and Xiao Xi!
As excellent maids cultivated by the Chino family since childhood, Xiao Nan and Xiao Nishi not only have the ability to serve their masters, but also have strong combat ability!
Xiao Nan's right hand is on the black-rimmed glasses he is carrying, which are just eyes, and when the switch is pressed, it becomes a thermal imager, even if the enemy is blocked by the wall, it can be detected!
"Nothing, no?" Xiao Nan, who should have reported the number and location of the enemy, was stunned... After turning on the thermal imager, I didn't even see the enemy!
"Don't be bound by common sense!" Lie reminded at the right time: "What we are fighting now is the Holy Grail War, the Heroic Spirits we are fighting, and it is the Caster (Magical Rank Heroic Spirits) with a variety of mysterious abilities! ā
"Since the opponent is Caster and is in the enemy's territory, the first to attack... It's the other party's summons! ā
The enemy finally showed up, and then ...
"Ah~!!" The girl's screams rang out in the school building, and fear began to spread.
Lie covered his forehead... It's also very helpless that it will become like this, because the first enemy to appear... It's a skeleton!
"Roar~"
Several skeleton soldiers appeared in front of everyone, wielding bone knives, bone guns and other weapons in their hands, and green light appeared in their eyes, which was indeed a very terrifying existence for the girls.
However, if you look closely, you will see that the movements are a little sluggish, and the green light in the eyes is a little faint... This is probably due to the lack of Caster ability to summon them.
That's right, it's just the battle of the first Lingji re-advent material of the nursery rhyme, and I'm afraid the strength of the enemy servant is also limited.
"Second Miss, be careful!" Just when the girls were shocked, the skeleton soldiers who ran over were already close in front of them, and the fear that Xiaonan and Xiaonishi's instinct to protect their masters immediately overcame.
In addition to the black-framed glasses that can be turned into thermal imagers, there is also something special in the maid skirts they are wearing, and I saw Xiao Nan take out a very delicate pistol and shoot accurately.
Hehe, the Battle Maid isn't for nothing!
A bullet appeared in the center of the skeleton soldier's eyebrows, but only a slow movement, and the bone knife in the skeleton soldier's hand still cut down.
"As an abnormal summon, it can't be treated with the same mind as a human." Lie's soul network overlays the skeleton soldier's body and begins to parse it.
The battle continued, and Xiao Nan was surprised and bounced to dodge the attack... Hmm, Xiao Nan and Xiao Xi do have a much higher combat power than ordinary people.
"Da Da Da Da~!!"
Xiao Nan took out a pistol, and Xiao Xi took out a miniature submachine gun directly from his skirt, and after dodging the attack of another skeleton soldier with a bone club, he stepped forward and put the muzzle of the gun in front of the skeleton soldier!
Bullets poured out ... If it doesn't work, then a shuttle!
The sound of bones cracking, the combat effectiveness of the skeleton soldiers in front of him was very average, and their heads were directly shattered under the fire of the miniature submachine gun 'Da Da Da ~'.
However, it didn't work... In the next moment, the skeleton soldier with the book off its head continued to attack Konishi with its bone stick, and the effect was only to delay its movements slightly.
"Uh, in the face of such a monster, ordinary small arms can probably only hear a sound?" Lie smiled bitterly and said the analysis of the result: "It's a skeleton soldier made of pure magic..."
"However, due to the limited abilities cast by the summoner, and the fact that even if the enchantment realm is generated, the concentration of mana around it is still very low, so the combat effectiveness of the skeleton soldiers is very average... It's the appearance that is more lethal. ā
With a "whoosh", a bone arrow flew from nowhere, shooting straight towards Qianno.
"Be careful~!" Konishi saw this scene, but he couldn't support it because of the distance, and Konan was the same.
It was just a matter of an instant, and the next moment the bone arrow came in front of him, and Qian Noya, who realized the danger, could not dodge.
"Bang", dangerously dangerous, the bone arrow that was about to hit Chino was bounced off, this is... Zero!
Lie's gaze turned to Zero holding a pistol at this time, and accurately hit the bone arrow in flight!
"The power is so small..."In the face of the accurate design, Zero said dissatisfiedly: "Even the smallest caliber artillery is much more powerful than this, right?" ā
āā¦ā
Compare the ship's gun-mounted artillery with a pistol, it's strange that the power can be the same...
"Master, what should Zero do?" Zero was wearing Xiao Nan's maid skirt, which also had some special items in it, so she was able to take out her pistol.
"Parsing is complete... This is a skeleton summoned by magic, and it will either be defeated directly or attack the red bone, and that is the key.
"Red bones?" Xiao Nan and Xiao Xi searched carefully and found that these skeleton soldiers did have a bone on their bodies that was different from the surrounding ones.
"It's like this." Lie took a step forward... The white coat he wore was somewhat unsuitable for movement, and his movements were as light as possible.
Lie demonstrated to them, and while dodging the attack of the skeleton soldiers, he directly reached out and grabbed the red bone!
With a "click", the skeleton soldier who had been pulled out of the red bone turned into pieces, and disappeared completely after a gust of wind... Even the red bones in Lie's hands disappeared with them.
"Dada~"
Once you have the goal, the rest is simple... These skeleton soldiers looked terrifying, but their combat effectiveness was pitiful, and Xiao Nan and Xiao Xi directly shot the red bones.
Including the skeletons that shot arrows in the distance, the first wave of skeletons that came to attack was a total of five, and they were completely wiped out in a short time.
"Is that okay? Lord Lie. After repelling the first wave of attacks, Chino asked, "The battle between the servants is carried out by the maid..."
"It's okay." Lie shook his head and said, "In the rules, using all the power that can be used is the most basic. ā
"Even if you are not a servant, except that you can't involve unrelated ordinary people, there are not too many taboos about fighting."
"However," Lie's voice changed, "although she is a battle maid, in her current state, she is still a little reluctant to fight like this. ā
Hawkers,If you can,,I still hope you come to sell cuteness (the real idea in my heart.ć
Lie looked at the book in Chino's arms and said softly, "Next, let's see your strength, nursery rhyme." ā
That's right, if you want to complete a personal mission, defeat the enemy Caster, and get the material for the return of the spirit base, you also need to read nursery rhymes!
"Is that okay? Nursery rhyme. Chino looked at the nursery rhyme that flew out of her arms, and said worriedly, "Don't force it." ā
"Master, although the nursery rhyme doesn't know that he is not a hero, he can be summoned... But as a magician, he still knows some magic! ā
The body of the nursery rhyme, the fairy tale book, opened by itself, and three rays of light were emitted from the pages of the book, shining on Xiaonan, Xiaoxi, and Zero.
"This is..."Xiao Nan and Xiao Nishi looked at each other in shock, and after being irradiated by the light, they felt a powerful force welling up from their bodies.
"Buff buff?" Lie looked at the nursery rhyme, and his eyes were incredible... In other words, could it be that nursery rhymes will also increase attacks, add critical hits, and the Red Devil will put it and beat it?
"If it's an ordinary amplification magic, it can still be used in its current state..."The book-like nursery rhyme sounded: "I'm sorry, although the nursery rhyme also wants to do more things, but in its current state, this is the only one that can be released without preparation..."
"No, it's already good." After analyzing the soul network shrouded Xiao Nan's body, they found that their strength had more than doubled!
The sound of "boom~" came from upstairs, and more skeleton soldiers appeared.
"If you don't defeat the enemy servants, there will only be more and more summons...", Lie said to Chino, "Let's fight all the way up, just so that everyone can familiarize themselves with the power of the magic amplified by the nursery rhyme." ā
Xiao Nan rushed to the front, Chino followed closely with a nursery rhyme, Konishi protected Chino closely, and Lie and Zero were in the position of the rear of the palace.
More than a dozen skeletons stood in front of Lie and his party, and it seemed that they would have to go through several battles before meeting the enemy Caster.
"Lord Lie, in fact, if you look closely, these skeleton soldiers are still a little cute~" After getting through the initial fear, Chino gradually relaxed, and even had the mood to look at the appearance of those skeleton soldiers.
With a "bang", Konishi smashed the butt of his gun on a nearby skeleton soldier, and because his strength was enhanced, he directly defeated the skeleton soldier.
As the strength increases, there is no need to specifically attack the Red Bone to destroy.
"Cute?" Lie opened his mouth, what kind of aesthetic can come to such a conclusion?
These skeletons are indeed not so scary after looking at them, but they are far worse than cuteness, right?
"Master, be careful!"
On the way forward, not only Chino will be attacked, but Ryuya will also become the target of attack.
"Lord Lie, be careful!" Chino, who had been paying attention, also shouted, only to see a black shadow appear behind Lie, it was a skeleton assassin with a dagger in his hand!
Zero shot at the same time as the warning was issued, but it was too late... The bullet managed to hit the red bone, but the skeletal assassin's dagger had already stabbed Lie in the back.
āā¦ā
"Puff~" sounded, and his expression was in a trance... Yourself, hurt?
No, why did you get hurt? Obviously calculated, under the protection of the soul network, this level of skeleton soldiers can't break through their own defenses at all, why...
Lie looked at the wound in disbelief... It's strange that the skeleton is gone, but the dagger is still there.
"It's... A weakened Noble Phantasm? ā
Finally, Lie discovers the reason... What the skeleton attacker was holding just now was a weakened Noble Phantasm, probably improvised by the enemy Caster, right?
"Iā" Lie clutched his chest, blood gushing out, and his white coat was red.
When a man is killed, he dies... Lie suddenly found that he seemed to have forgotten that his current body could not withstand too much tossing.
