Chapter 358: Breath Blocking
Countless flying scalpels were like bullets from a machine gun, and Miyuki used her wings as a shield in front of her while spreading her defenses.
"It's endless!"
Shooting down the scalpel thrown by the Assassin again, Miyuki is depressed by the repetition of the situation, but the only thing that gives some relief is that in the process of her interception, Miyu has moved many people to nearby houses. Although it does not completely insulate the fog, it is at least much stronger than being completely exposed to the outside world.
"Done."
Miyu's calm voice sounded, giving a very reliable feeling.
"Good! We transfer. ”
Miyuki and Miyu are moving forward again, and if they can keep it that way, they may be able to wait until the support of the four seasons arrives.
While Miyuki was thinking like this, something unexpected happened.
It wasn't that the Assassin had made some terrible move, it was the opposite, the Assassin's attack had stopped, and the endless throwing knives that had been a moment ago were now all gone, and there was only pure silence around them.
"What's going on?"
Miyuki looked around, but of course she couldn't see anything in the fog.
Without the attack of the scalpel to determine the position, they couldn't even grasp the general position of the other party compared to just now.
Is this what the other party is for?
Since the rank of assassin is called an assassin, it naturally has a corresponding rank skill, which is breath blocking. It can cut off the servant's breath so that it remains undetected. And this skill of Jack the Ripper has reached the level of A+, although the level will be greatly reduced when attacking, but as long as you don't shoot, you will hardly be detected. Combined with the Misty Night Killing, which retains skill level A, it can almost form a perfect assassination.
It can be said that the most dangerous time for an assassin is when he doesn't make a move.
Even if the effect of the Mirror of Nitokris has been activated, Miyuki does not dare to guarantee that she will be able to dodge the opponent's attack intact this time.
Time passed in silence, and every second felt like she was being tormented in a hot pan, sweat already soaking Miyuki's back, and Miyuki, who was next to her, was holding her breath in the same way.
Five seconds, ten seconds, fifteen seconds...... Half a minute had passed, but the attack had not arrived.
“?”
Miyuki's heart couldn't help but have a trace of doubt, of course, for a real assassination, not half a minute, half an hour, half a day, she would wait patiently.
But the situation is not exactly the same now, the Assassin is not a normally summoned servant like in the ordinary Holy Grail War, there is no reason, only the desire to fight and instinct, can you really be so patient just by relying on this? Even if the assassination was already instinctive, but now that the assassin had opened such a large-scale fog barrier, it was impossible to maintain it for too long without the replenishment of mana.
Another point is that Miyuki didn't feel a trace of being spied on in her heart at this time.
Is it the assassin who perfectly hides his murderous aura, even beyond Miyuki's intuition, or-
"Retreated?"
If the Assassin really stayed away from them, of course they wouldn't be able to find the Assassin.
The intuitive Miyuki didn't think that the other party would retreat so lightly, but she couldn't explain the current situation, and at this moment-
…………
"That's an exaggeration."
Standing outside the thick fog, Rin sighed.
Rin and Blackie were also exploring in the deep mountain town, so they rushed here first, but that was the end of it, and they were completely helpless in the face of the dense fog that shrouded them for several blocks.
There is still a residual pain on his body from the fog that he just burst into, and even a magician like Rin will continue to be hurt when he enters it, and it will only take a little more time compared to ordinary people.
"Can you see anything?"
Black, who was standing next to Rin, had already entered the battle mode.
"It's an enchantment magic, and it must have been the work of the Servant to be able to accomplish this scale in such a short period of time."
"Sure enough, I'd better go in and have a look, right?"
"Wait a minute."
Rin stops her before Black-chan acts.
"What's wrong?"
"You're in a state that can withstand the damage of the fog, but if my judgment is correct, the fog will not only obstruct vision, but also disrupt the sense of direction. If you rush in, not only will you not find Miyu, but you may also lose your way and be attacked by the enemy. ”
Because there was nothing wrong with Rin's words, Blackie had to stop.
"So what do we do now?"
The most troublesome thing is that the dense fog blocks the communication between the inside and outside, so that they can't know the situation inside, and the demons released by Rin are all gone.
"Can you wait?"
Rin frowned, waiting wasn't her style.
At this moment, Xiao Hei turned his eyes to the sky, and saw three people flying at a high speed exceeding the speed of sound, and in a blink of an eye, the three of them had already fallen in front of them.
"Elijah."
"Four seasons. And ...... that one? ”
The people who arrived were Shiji, Illya, and Jill.
"Has it already arrived?"
Illya looked around, the flight just now relied on the power of the four seasons in order to reach the fastest speed, otherwise Illya would not be able to fly at supersonic speed.
"If my Noble Phantasm were still there, it wouldn't be so troublesome."
Jill shook his head, most of his strength was in the half-body, making him quite weak now.
“……”
After letting go of the two of them, Shiki looked at the dense fog that surrounded several blocks, and it was a pity that he couldn't see what was going on inside with his current perception.
"How's Miyu?"
Because of the delay in getting in touch with Meiyu, Illya seemed very anxious.
"I don't know."
Blackie replied.
"Is there anything you can do?"
Rin asked, looking at the silent Shiki.
“…… I tried to blow the fog away. ”
In fact, it is easier to directly attack this fog-shrouded neighborhood on a global scale, but that is based on the situation of disregarding the lives of the people inside, so Shiki can only choose this method now.
"You're not going to be laughing, are you?! Can this blow away? ”
Even ordinary fog is not easy to blow away with the power of one person, not to mention that this is the enchantment of fog, the product of magic creation. This is completely beyond Rin's comprehension.
But of course Shiki wasn't joking, he raised his hand to get started, and at that moment-
