Chapter Twenty-Three: The Shadow Servant

Gollum stepped forward, the magic power of his whole body surged, and with a stroke of his hand, a spell formed in front of the old man, blocking the way.

"It can be said that you have won Rider, Shinji is no longer in battle, and Sakura has nothing to do with the Holy Grail War, but if you interfere with the action, can you guarantee that this situation will not change?" The old man smiled, his expression like he didn't care.

That's right, don't care at all.

"Although he is a family ugly, but the blood of Jian Tong has become thinner when he comes to this country, and he can be regarded as the last successor. Because he has always been allowed to do so, his nature is difficult to correct. Even if he didn't give up when he encountered such a clear defeat, he would not be able to do anything. Anyway, there is no magic circuit for the children of the children, and they are broken, so at least they have to continue to live for the family with the name of waste. ”

He saved Shinji not because he cared about the love of the bloodline, but because Shinji still had the value of living, and the gain of dying here outweighed the loss.

Although Shinji is an ordinary person with no magical powers, he is also part of his plan, and even if it doesn't matter, he has to live for his big plans.

"Don't change the subject, it looks like you've done something too much to Sakura, right?" Gollum frowned, she already had the intention of doing something to this old man, Sakura is a very kind girl, even if she repays the favor, she has to help Sakura get rid of this fate.

The old man shrunk back.

No, it's just stepping back without making a sound that it gives people that illusion.

"That's a question that can't answer you, even if you want to do it, it's okay, after all, the Holy Grail War is in this form."

"Okay, since you've said so, I'll find out the answer in my own way." The old man didn't expect Gollum to be so direct, and he did it without saying a word.

In the history of previous battles, Gollum has understood a truth, many times reasoning is useless, if you want the other party to agree with you, you first need to overwhelm the other party in strength.

"Hehe, the little girl's temperament is really upright, since she insists on sharing the victory and defeat with the old man here, let's fight."

"Show the cards, I'll take it."

The whirlwind magic was broken by the old man, and Gollum adjusted the way of fighting, the battle between magicians is sometimes very simple, attacking the enemy with their own strengths, and the enemy with such a weak hand and foot as the opponent should be suppressed in hand-to-hand combat.

"It's a correct judgment, if you face you alone before you meet the divine envoy, even if you are old, it may be disadvantageous, but ah~~~" The old man shook his head, as if he felt sorry for Gollum.

"But how?"

Gollum rushed forward, using magic to strengthen his body, using both fists and feet, the old man could not resist, and could only use magic to offset the attack, and was completely at a disadvantage.

In terms of combat, as long as he is still human, Gollum has the confidence that he will not lose to any magician.

However——— a trace of uneasiness gradually rose in his heart.

It's too calm, this old man named Jian Tong Dirty Yan still has an expression of indifference, even in this situation, his face does not change.

"I see, the level of magic and combat ability are already close to the level of the Heroic Spirit, so it's no wonder that Rider will lose."

and even comfortably analyzed her abilities.

Gollum did not hesitate, increased her strength, and smashed the defense technique of the Dirty Inkstone, but at this moment, a scarlet spear stabbed out in front of her eyes, and then with a simple sweep, it forced Gollum back a few meters away.

The sudden change made Gollum pause for a moment, settle down, and then she saw... A dark Heroic Spirit, though covered in darkness, was still instantly recognizable.

"The Shadow Servant.... Cúchulainn? ”

Gollum was stunned, of course she knew that this was not the real Cúchulainn, and she had encountered such a thing as the Shadow Servant before when she was at the Anomaly, but how could there be such an existence in the Fifth Holy Grail War?

It's not just a matter of historical shift, there is something that shouldn't be, and that means that something has happened, not naturally, but man-made.

If it continues to evolve, Fuyuki may become a peculiar point again.

"Oh? It looks like you've met this kind of heroic spirit.,This is obviously the latest achievement.,Why? "There are some doubts about the dirty inkstone.

"Why should I tell you?"

Although the Shadow Servant is not as strong as the authentic Heroic Spirit, it has also inherited some of its strength, but as long as Gollum is serious, a Shadow Servant may be able to handle it.

"I've lived in Fuyuki for decades, and I've never heard anything about you, so even the Magicians Association can't hide it to this extent, right? The old decay is very interested in you. ”

There was a chill for a while, according to her age, she is also an eighteen-year-old flower girl, okay, it is really uncomfortable to be stared at by such a rotten old man.

"Don't think that a shadow follower will win."

"Hehe, if one doesn't work, then what about two?"

Suddenly, a piercing spike weapon suddenly dilated in her pupils, taking over the line of sight.

"Huh?"

Gollum's attention was still focused on Shadow Cu Chulainn's body, and he was caught off guard, only to turn sideways, and before his head could react, blood splattered.

The pain hit his brain, and his entire left arm suddenly lost sensation, and he couldn't even feel if it existed.

Blood dripped to the ground, his clothes were stained red with blood, and a hole appeared in Gollum's left shoulder.

A black short sword, this is something similar to a nail, maybe a short sword, very sharp, can easily penetrate a person's body, this is.... Medusa's weapon.

"Shadow Beauty Dusa...."

This speed, this kind of weapon, if it wasn't for the quick reaction just now, it is very likely to be pierced through the chest.

Although it is only a copy of Medusa, because the Master is an old man, it is stronger than Medusa in a weakened state.

Pulling out the sword weapon on his left shoulder, he used his magic to stop the bleeding, but the entire left arm was basically immobile.

The danger level is much higher than expected, and facing both Shadow Cúchulin and Shadow Medusa is undoubtedly a big crisis for Gollum, but she still keeps her calm, and if she messes up in this situation, her defeat will come immediately.

"What are you going to do in this situation?"

Jian Tong Yan giggled, just like the audience, admiring it on crutches, the two shadow servants, even the real heroic spirits cannot be underestimated, and it is almost a nirvana situation for human magicians.

The figure of the shadow beauty Dussa swayed, and the pitch-black figure galloped forward, the speed was unimaginably fast, the last second was still dozens of meters away, and the next second had come to the front of him, beyond the limit of human speed.

The iron nail crossed the spatial distance and flew again, this time on guard, Gollum set up a defensive magic, and with a "bell", it stopped, but at the same time, Shadow Cu Chulainn also rushed over with the scarlet spear in his hand.
