Chapter 47: Dark Shadows
"Oh?" Gilgamesh saw something interesting again, and continued, "It's good luck today, there is a woman who can interest the king... Very good, I will specially allow you to be in my harem as the second favorite concubine! β
He didn't say who it was, and everyone present followed his gaze and looked in the direction of Minette.
Minette, who had nothing to do and was standing in place, was stunned for a moment after hearing this, looked up at Gilgamesh, yawned, and then turned to Xue Qiong and tapped his temple with his slender fingers.
I don't know why, this is obviously the code that Xue Qiong himself would use, "Is there a problem with this guy's intellectual development, what a poor child", but it was used by this heroic spirit from the Arad continent in Dongmu City.
"Be careful." Saber suddenly shouted, "This guy is very strong, and I don't know what kind of thing he will do, I suggest that you all stop the stalemate and deal with him together!" β
"This king didn't say that he was here to fight..."Gilgamesh still put his hands in his pockets, looking unhostile, "This king just found out that his woman was actually fighting for others again, and he sincerely felt a sense of unhappiness, and felt the need to come over to remind them of their identity..."
Saber's sword didn't waver in any way from Gilgamesh's words, but instead regrouped his posture, took a deep breath, and was ready to attack at any moment.
To be honest, Gilgamesh's arrival didn't really react except for some reason that Shinji Maki was relieved and made Saber turn his gun... Among them, Xue Qiong's side is the most leisurely, and Xiao Yun even began to look for food in the big bag she just bought from the convenience store.
"Click!" The sound of Xiao Yun biting off a piece of chocolate.
"That golden guy!" Xiao Yun swallowed what was in her mouth before she asked Gilgamesh on the other side, "You are here, does it mean that the priest is also interested in this Holy Grail War?" β
"No, no, this has nothing to do with Yan Feng." He actually really had the heart to answer this kind of question, "How many times do you want me to say, you scum, why don't you want to put down your sword and talk about it, and then give me back what belongs to me?" β
βSaberοΌβ Seeing that Saber's posture was still the same, Emiya Shirou couldn't stand it anymore, so he whispered in her ear: "The other party doesn't seem to have malicious intentions, let's go first..."
"Hybrid !!!" Before Emiya Shirou's whisper was finished, Gilgamesh roared angrily, "You really have a good dog's guts to dare to be so close to the king's woman!! β
It really exploded like a cannonball, and as soon as Gilgamesh's words fell, a large piece of golden light appeared behind him, and then dozens of weapons slowly emerged from that piece of golden light.
Seeing this, Xue Qiong said softly: "He has been provoked, we are ready to retreat at any time." β
"Good!" Xiao Yun put the snacks and drinks she was carrying on the ground.
"Tremble under the majesty of the king, bastards!!" Gilgamesh raised a hand. Either way, it's about to attack, and the weapons that have already come out of the way that only exist in ancient legends will soon rain down like a storm...
"Is this the deterrent power of RMB players?" Xue Qiong looked at Gilgamesh and motioned for everyone on his side to take a few steps back, and also prepared to use the Super Wave shield to block the first attack.
"Huh?!" Gilgamesh was stunned for a moment, and turned towards a place where there was no one, and the golden light behind him also turned around.
And Xue Qiong suddenly felt a palpitation.
"This isβ" Xue Qiong threw half of the cigarette in her hand into the river without any quality, and then also looked intently in the direction that Gilgamesh was staring at.
One... Something indescribable is slowly approaching here. It looked like a few vertical strips of cloth were built into a sharp cone, and I don't know if there was anything in them, because there was darkness underneath those strips, as if it would suck all the light in, and when it passed under the streetlights, the light sources seemed to go out. Also, those strips of cloth that seem to have a physical body, if you look closely, there is no thickness in the fluttering, and they are completely two-dimensional structures, like... It's like a shadow.
Then Xue Qiong heard a chaotic sound, and it was obviously not heard through his ears, but directly appeared in his consciousness.
"It's all your fault to starve, kill, eat
Moreover, Xue Qiong's transformed eyes that could see the flow of energy also saw that the black shadow was like a whirlpool, constantly devouring the magic power, life force and all the flowing energy that was escaping around it, and even the light would be sucked into it.
Jian Tong Dirty Yan, who had been standing in place and had no movement, looked at the black shadow and suddenly became frightened, trembled and said incoherently:
"Impossible, impossible, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, there would be such a situation, if you want to be an enemy of it, it's really..."
Kiriki limps and tries to escape, but is stopped by the protagonist Fang and Gilgamesh.
Xue Qiong looked at Jian Tong's dirty inkstone, and found that his fear was not like a fake at all, it was really from the heart, and he was absolutely afraid of this black shadow!
Then Xue Qiong took a look at the protagonist's side and Gilgamesh's reaction, and found that although Emiya Shirou and they seemed to be unclear, they were still like a great enemy, and the hero king simply put away all his king's treasures.
As for Shinji Makiri, who has been tortured several times in hope and despair, and Rider, who is lying half-dead on the ground, I don't want to mention it.
"What the hell is that..."Xue Qiong turned his gaze back to the black shadow, looking at the energy that was constantly being sucked away by it, listening to the negative sounds it made that went straight to the bottom of his heart, and began to eliminate possibilities in his mind.
(A natural phenomenon?) It can't be. Those voices full of negativity... Is it "all evil here"? No, it's supposed to be in the Holy Grail... Wait, think about it on the Holy Grail, and when you combine it with the Kiriki inkstone, he seems to know what this thing looks like... οΌ
"Xiao Yun." Xue Qiong said softly, "Make a call to the castle of Einzbelen." β
"Oh!" Although Xiao Yun didn't know what Xue Qiong wanted to do, she still took out her mobile phone and did it. Although Ainzberen has always been a more conservative group of magicians who are known for their old-fashionedness, Kiritsugu Einomiya installed a landline there ten years ago, and Illya, who had just learned how to use this thing, also left her phone number at the last time we had dinner together.
"Hello? Who are you @%Β₯&I^&$..."
The phone was connected, there was a lot of noise, and it seemed that the black shadow could even suck up electromagnetic waves... But Xiao Yun still asked, "Is it Elija?" β
"Yes%G%^*^You are..."
Xiao Yun glanced at Xue Qiong, Xue Qiong nodded, and then pressed her hand downward, signaling her to hang up.
(The Illians are still in the Einzbelen Castle on the outskirts, so...) οΌ
Xue Qiong glanced at the black shadow again, and then came to a conclusion in his heart.
(From the Holy Grail's side, since it wasn't made by Illya, who is the carrier of the Holy Grail, it must be "another Holy Grail"...) In addition, the proportion of unconscious students in the school is indeed much higher than that outside.,And this thing is also constantly sucking up all the energy.,And the name of the "Black Sakura Line" in the world of this plot.,This thing is really dark.,The threat level is enough to be a world BOSS level.,And the dirty inkstone seems to know a lot of things... Finally, last time we guessed that Kirima Sakura would run out and suck everywhere because of the lack of magic power... οΌ
(Sakura Makiri, I didn't run away.) It seems that the main line of this plot world is to deal with the good school girl during the day and this thing at night... οΌ
Thinking of this, Xue Qiong took a deep breath and thought of what he was going to do next.
Then he whispered to the people on his side: "Look at it, as long as Emiya Shirou and they want to leave, we'll... Drive! Tight! Run! If it really doesn't work, use Nicholas to break the queen. β
Except for the bitter Nicholas, everyone else nodded when they heard this.
Looking at the dark shadow approaching this side little by little, Xue Qiong re-lit a cigarette and began to sort out his mental state. And Emiya Shirou's side...
The four protagonists looked at the black shadow and waited for it, and Emiya Shirou asked his Servant, "Saber, do you know what that is?" β
Saber didn't continue to point his sword at Gilgamesh, but turned to the shadow. Hearing Emiya Shirou's words, she shook her head and said, "I don't know, but I know it's a very dangerous thing, and we're not opponents here..."
Just when everyone was still wondering about the body of the black shadow, the black shadow suddenly became several times larger, instantly covering a range of tens of meters square!!
Although Xue Qiong didn't have time to react, because he adhered to the principle that if he didn't die, he wouldn't die, and when the black shadow first appeared, he took a few steps back with Xiaoyun's bald head Minette, so he was not affected by the enlarged black shadow at all. And the protagonist's side...
"Tosaka !!" Emiya Shirou shouted, pushing Rin Tosaka away.
"Wait, what are you doing..."Rin Tosaka was pushed some distance away and survived. And Emiya Shirou became the only one who was covered by a magnified black shadow.
"Dry..."Although he was not in danger, Xue Qiong at this moment had countless swear words that he wanted to scold. Because he doesn't know if this is indirectly caused by the plot changes he created, if the core protagonist dies, the collapse of the worldview is almost a sure thing, and his income in this world will be more auspicious...
