Chapter 293: The Swordsman's Decision
Chen Xiaofeng casually talked nonsense for a reason, but for this ridiculous reason, Artoria nodded and accepted.
"I see, let's rush out together...... However, the master must not stop and face the magician until I say I can stop. β
"I see." Chen Xiaofeng nodded.
Since Artoria is so jealous of magicians, Chen Xiaofeng must also be careful.
Artoria was very satisfied with Chen Xiaofeng's honest nod and agreement, so that after Chen Xiaofeng was settled, she could fight with the magician with peace of mind.
"So, get ready to go." Chen Xiaofeng said the breakthrough declaration.
And yet - for a moment.
Chen Xiaofeng began to doubt his eyes. Because he saw Artoria's sword slashing towards him, a merciless and unavoidable swift blow that exploded on the top of Chen Xiaofeng's head, who was standing in a daze.
However, that blow did not hit Chen Xiaofeng's body, but blocked the sword blade from behind him for him.
Before Chen Xiaofeng could say thank you, a few silver lights flashed in the darkness again. Chen Xiaofeng hurriedly picked it up, quickly picked up the fruit knife on the coffee table, and bounced away the blow.
Even Chen Xiaofeng himself couldn't believe it, and instead of relying on the ability to reflex, he used his weapon to block the seemingly impossible attack.
But the thing in the darkness didn't give up, and didn't hesitate to swing it again, a smooth machine-like movement, an accurate attack that didn't take much effort, but that's all.
It's just accurate, but it doesn't give people that sense of crisis.
The blow was too sluggish compared to Hassan's, and like a feather compared to Artoria.
Just two days of training paid off. Chen Xiaofeng bounced the attack away again, unlike before, this time Chen Xiaofeng used the ability to bounce away, so the unknown thing was temporarily bounced away a certain distance, and the surroundings of the two were now empty.
"Now is it, master!"
Artoria said loudly, and then rushed towards the balcony with Chen Xiaofeng, moving towards the place where no one was.
As Chen Xiaofeng and Artoria left, the things in the room also followed, moving closely with the footsteps of the two.
After the complete end of school time, the school city is very quiet.γ
Even College Street, which seems to be very busy during the day, is particularly deserted.
Those things moved very fast, and it seemed that it was more than enough to catch up with the two of them, so Artoria and Chen Xiaofeng, who were moving, had to be distracted to kill the alien things that were following them.
Shattered by Artoria's blow, the xenomorph vanished like a phantom.
"That's too weak, isn't it?" Looking at the alien creatures that were solved by Artoria one by one, Chen Xiaofeng felt that his heart was a little fussy.
"Master, you are very wrong to think so, these aliens are soldiers who are embodied by the body of a monster. It's a monster in the first place.,It's not easy to control it.,But the quality seems to be very poor.γ With the current alien form of Cheng DΓΉ, even if we are surrounded, it will not be a big problem, but ......"
Artoria's face had an uneasy expression. Where is it hidden? No, not only the problem, but even how these aliens had infiltrated the house before, Artoria didn't know.
Skeleton-like alien creatures followed closely behind the two. There are countless aliens that have been cut down, but the number has not decreased.
So far, the Wizard has not appeared.
"Master, right!"
Chen Xiaofeng held the fruit knife in his hand and blocked it with his backhand, and with his own ability, the shape of the alien skeleton began to crack, and then shattered to the ground.
What followed was an endless pursuit.
The skeletons approached the two of them in loose movements, and each skeleton attacked with the same movement, although it was not difficult to set it up, although there was no one on College Street now, but there was no guarantee that no one would appear, and if there were ordinary people at that time, there would be a danger of accidental injury.
"Where did all this stuff come from?" Chen Xiaofeng said impatiently, obviously he didn't see them replenish or regenerate, but the number did not decrease.
Not only behind the two of them, but even on the high-rise buildings on both sides of College Street, there are many skeleton aliens, and if this continues, it will be a matter of time before the body is exhausted.
"Since it's useless to solve them one by one......" Artoria re-set up her sword, her sword was not blessed with the Wind King Enchantment at the moment, and it was no longer transparent.
There's no need to hide anymore, the golden sword shines in order to exert its true power.
"Wait, wait for Artoria! No, don't use the Sword of Oath Victory! It doesn't matter if this is a shopping street, but you should know that across the street is a residential area, and with the destructive power of your Noble Phantasm, it will definitely spread over there, so you should know what the consequences will be if you use that trick here, right? β
Chen Xiaofeng said to Artoria while helping to sweep away the skeletons.
"However, if we don't sweep it all at once, we will be slowly pushed into a desperate situation."
"I know, but do you remember what the book says? The best way to defeat a summon is to defeat its owner, so Lily, and Heroic Spirit, can you find or sense the location of the mage? β
"There is no need to look for it at all, the magician's aura is on the buildings on both sides, and he doesn't even hide his own breath, that is, it seems that he has dug a trap to lure us."
"It doesn't matter if it's a trap, we're going to be in a desperate situation if we go on like this, right?"
"Since the master said so, then I'll go and fight the magician."
"Huh?"
Artoria is talking about me and not us, which means that Artoria intends to face it alone?
"Master, I said that it is not allowed for your current strength to face a magician, so I will do such a thing."
"But ......", but if we can use our abilities, we can definitely defeat the magician with the strength of the two of us---I was interrupted by Artoria before I could say anything.
"Master, you promised me that you would never stop to face the magician!"
That's exactly what I promised...... But Chen Xiaofeng was still a little unwilling. But Artoria's eyes were non-negotiable.
It's useless to be unwilling...... Chen Xiaofeng seemed to have given up, not to mention that if he was going to face the magician, then maybe after entering the battle, Artoria would be distracted for her own safety.
Therefore, Chen Xiaofeng can only compromise at the moment.
