Chapter Twenty-Four: The Death of Elijah
At this moment, White Maple Valley Kankan came to the forest where many imperial lords and heroic spirits were fighting, and as far as the eye could see, the fierce and violent Yaqi Orochi and Reiko Asakawa riding on his back both broke through the seal, which was the most eye-catching.
"This is, a hydra of the same bloodline as Harpy? No, the eight heads and eight tails are the monsters of Japanese mythology, the Yaki Orochi! ”
Just as Bai Fenggu and Rider were deducing the situation in the field, Hua Jianfeng, Li Taibai, Zhuge Jianmu, and Athena arrived almost at the same time, and after a while, Su Liuzhen, Nie Yinniang, and Solomon were entangled all the way, and they also came to this forest.
In the center of the battlefield, the Heavenly Lock, the Seven Star Sealing Demon Sword, and the Glacier Fall, combined with the power of Gilgamesh, Emiya Shirou, and Tosaka Rin, were able to confine the Yaki Orochi and Reiko Asaka on his back for a few breaths.
Even though Reiko Asakawa was holding the Heavenly Cloud Sword, with the edge of the Excalibur, she immediately got out of trouble, and Red Saber Artoria and Red Lancer Enkidu had already taken advantage of this crucial opportunity to race against time and prepared their own special moves.
In this regard, Reiko Asakawa harnesses the fierce and violent Yaki Orochi, perched high on the high mountain, and the majestic momentum of the entire hill seems to merge with the two, turning into an impregnable defense with the power of the earth.
Artoria unraveled the invisible Wind King enchantment that wrapped around the sword, revealing the oath and sword of victory that symbolized the status of the Knight King, and then, condensing the magic power of her whole body, she turned into a dazzling storm of golden sword qi on the golden sword.
"Go, Oath and Sword of Victory!"
"Boom!"
With Artoria's soft shout, an extremely dazzling golden-colored* magic storm with a diameter of four or five meters thick swept out above the sword body. Directly hit the intersection of the eight heads and eight tails in the middle of the Yaqi Orochi, and even its lord Reiko Asakawa was shrouded in it. I don't know if I live or die.
Enkidu had long, glowing hair that was close to green, and wore a rough white robe draped over his body. At the age of sixteen, his face is almost neutral, and his dignified and beautiful figure is like a holy and pure Venus.
I saw him slowly floating in mid-air, almost obscuring half of the sky in the divine white light, Enqidu's body was almost nothing, and it seemed to merge with all the dazzling light in the sky.
"Son of man, cling to the gods!"
So, in a moment, the pure and holy white light condensed. Turning into a simple and simple nail of light, it shuttled between the body of the Yaki Orochi like lightning, "Bang Bang", and in the seven explosions, it continuously penetrated the seven heads of the monster.
In the end, the Nail of Light was contaminated by the blood of the filthy and evil monster of the Yaki Snake, and the holy light dimmed, and in desperation, he lost the opportunity to penetrate all eight of his heads, and returned to the same place. Turned into a pale, crumbling Enkidu.
The master of Enkidu, the biochemical synthetic beast Silver Wolf, immediately ran over, letting the weakened Heroic Spirit lean on his back. Guarding carefully, he gathered with Shirou Emiya, Rin Tosaka and others, and several pairs of eyes were all watching the center of the explosion. Waiting for the outcome of the happy or mixed feelings.
"It's a pity!"
Without waiting for the light to dissipate, the smoke and dust receded. Hua Jianfeng had already sighed softly, deducing the meaning of his words. It is obvious that Yaki Orochi and Reiko Asakawa did not die so easily.
Hua Jianfeng deserved to be the strongest among the all, just looking at this eyesight can be seen, after he spoke, it took a few seconds for Bai Fenggu to detect the breath of Reiko Asakawa and Yaki Orochi from the chaotic magic frenzy.
Artoria used all her strength to activate the sword of oath and victory, and when the dazzling golden storm was imminent, Reiko Asakawa seemed to have used some kind of precious defensive item, so she was not seriously injured.
On the contrary, it was the nail of light that Enkidu turned into a nail that followed, sharp and sharp, like light and electricity, indestructible, and unbreakable, and before Reiko Asakawa had time to react, it had already penetrated the seven heads of the Yaki Orochi.
According to Bai Fenggu's estimate, the Yaqi Giant Snake should have a bloodline talent similar to the rebirth of the nine heads of the Harpy, if he can't kill all eight of his heads at once, I'm afraid it will be the end of the snake not dying but suffering from it.
If it weren't for the fact that the Nail of Light was tainted by the blood of the Yaqi Snake's filthy and evil monsters, resulting in a lack of strength, the Yaki Orochi, who had already had seven heads blown up, would probably have fallen into the hands of Enkidu.
It's a pity, as Hua Jianfeng sighed, in the end, he fell short for Shanjiu.
Moreover, after Artoria and Enki both delivered this blow, their bodies were weak in a short period of time, and their magic power was exhausted, so not only could they not take advantage of the victory to pursue and kill the Yaki Orochi, but they would become a burden, and the outcome was decided.
Sure enough, when the smoke dissipated, Reiko Asakawa was slightly embarrassed, but it did not hurt the roots, and even though the Yaqi Snake was seriously injured, the fork of the oath and the sword of victory was almost broken, and there was a bloody hole on each of the seven heads, lifeless, but it was a hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff, and the body writhed, and the injury healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Seeing that the victory is decided, the small alliance of six people, including Shirou Emiya, Saber Artoria, Rin Tosaka, Gilgamesh Gilgamesh, Silver Wolf, and Encir Red, is already a fish on the chopping board, ready to harvest points for victory.
Although it was Reiko Asakawa who defeated the six of them head-on, Bai Fenggu, Hua Jianfeng, and Zhuge Jianmu didn't mind taking advantage of the fisherman.
Tacitly perceiving everyone's thoughts, Bai Fenggu looked around the field, and Su Liuzhen, who was allied with him, was unexpectedly entangled by the heroic spirit suspected of being Red Caster, while Hua Jianfeng and Zhuge Jianmu obviously had the same idea, and they could be described as competitors.
At this moment, something happened again.
An inexplicable fluctuation came, and White Maple Valley was stunned for a moment, and had already learned a new piece of news from it, "Black Master Thunder, and his Heroic Spirit Black Lancer, have killed Red Master Ilia and Heroic Spirit Red Berserker. Earn three * points. ”
"Elia!"
"Elijah! How so? ……”
Obviously, this sudden news was a bit cruel to Shirou Emiya and Rin Tosaka.
Before leaving, they were full of ambition, but they never thought that not only did the battle with Reiko Asakawa hide a murderous motive on this trip, but even Illya, who stayed in the castle of Einzbelen, was killed by Lei who fled in embarrassment yesterday.
"Don't we really have the slightest chance of winning the Holy Grail War and saving our homeland?"
"Quick, let's go, go back to the castle of Einzberen!"
Emiya Shirou was heartbroken, not only because of the belief in avenging Elijah, but also because the situation in the field was extremely unfavorable to his side, and only by returning to Einzberen Castle and delaying with the help of the magic circle that he had prepared for many years could he regroup and strive for the extremely slim hope.
As a result, Emiya Shirou, Red Saber Artoria, Rin Tosaka, Red Archer Gilgamesh, Silver Wolf, and Red Lancer Enkidu retreated violently, and they wanted to break out of the siege and flee to Einzberen Castle. (To be continued.) )
