Chapter 271: The Flames of War Ignited Everywhere (4)!
In Tosaka's view, this battle was not a magic duel at all, but a comical farce.
Shi Chen only silently maintained the defensive formation, and did not make any moves that could be called an attack. Despite this, the night of the wild goose on the other side is already in a state of dying.
This is completely self-defeating. For the current wild goose, the act of using magic is a fatal act of suicide in itself. Presumably, as a party concerned, Yan Ye also knew it very well, but he still did not hesitate to continue to use techniques beyond his own limits, and as a result, he could only reap the consequences.
The current appearance of the wild goose night is simply miserable. The capillaries all over the body ruptured, and blood foam splattered everywhere. His own crumbling figure, which was completely unable to stand upright, seemed to be drowned in a cloud of blood. The face that rolled its eyes because it was too painful made it impossible to judge whether the person was still conscious.
"It's so bold to say...... Has it become such a virtuous character when you start to do it? ”
And the saddest thing is that no matter how much Yan Ye harms his life to mobilize his magic, his attack has never been able to hurt Shi Chen's hair.
A moth to a fire - the present situation is simply a reproduction of this old idiom. The swarms of beetles rushed straight towards Shi Chen's flame array, but they never managed to break through the defenses, and they were all burned without a trace. As an emissary, the act of confronting the flames head-on is extremely stupid in itself. Despite this, the wild goose night's attack did not relax in the slightest, cutting its own life and driving the bugs to charge in vain, turning into bursts of flying ash.
It's a sight that makes people laugh at it. For this extremely weak enemy, Shi Chen had already surpassed the limit of contempt and began to feel a little pity for him. Soon, the flames will burn all the insects in the wild goose night. And at that time, it must be that Yan Ye himself will die of anger because he can't bear the pain. Shichen only needs to pay attention to maintaining his spells. Just watch from the wall leisurely. Under his impregnable defense, the winner will naturally be decided.
But for the ministers who follow the noble devil's way. It is the greatest displeasure to continue to expose the ugliness of the misguided and depraved magician to himself.
"Intensiveeinascherung-" (Cremation for our enemies)
With Shi Chen's second verse chanting, the fire snake of the defensive array slowly meandered towards the wild goose night. The wild goose night is not even defended. For this magician who learns and sells. It is doubtful whether there is knowledge of the anti-attack spell.
"Kill...... Kill you...... You guys............ Shi Chen............ Dirty...... Dirty inkstone ......"
Although it was burned alive, the wild goose didn't even scream, just kept repeating the curse in a low voice. His body, which had been eaten by insects from within, may no longer feel pain.
Just as the wild goose night writhed in pain to shake off the flames that wrapped his body, he accidentally broke the guardrail. Just rolled off the eaves and fell into the darkness of the alley.
In the end, Shi Chen swept away the insects that were still entrenched around him with flames. He lifted his defenses and sighed as he straightened his clothes.
The corpse - there is no need to identify it. Even if the other party is still angry, he will definitely not live long. Next, just wait for Berserker, who has lost his Master, to disappear naturally.
According to Shi Chen's original prediction, the Jian Tong family will give up this Holy Grail War and stay on the sidelines. But now it has come. It's really puzzling that the other party suddenly sent Yan Ye, a laggard who had long been expelled from the house, as a temporary master. Until the end, Shi Chen failed to understand the reason for Yan Ye's participation in the war.
As for, it seems that from Rin's mouth, I vaguely heard that the wild goose night was fighting for Sakura? This kind of obviously perfunctory excuse for children must be a new trick of the Tong family.
Shi Chen didn't want to be bothered by this victory without the slightest sense of accomplishment, leaving only an endless unpleasant aftertaste, so he simply forgot about it.
……
The night in Xindu completely lost the silence of the night, and ambulances and patrol cars rushed back and forth non-stop. Even these people who are running on the road with red lights on don't really understand why they want to run on the road in the middle of the night. They don't know the full picture, and they probably won't know even later.
A tall, monk-robed figure walked on the road in the middle of the night, and if it were in normal times, he would definitely be included in the suspicious figure for interrogation. But tonight, the officers were overwhelmed by the constant stream of rescue requests and lockdown orders. I don't have time to care about a mere passerby. Several patrol cars drove past Yan Fengqili, but none of them noticed his presence.
Qili, who was silently walking on the way back to the Fuyuki Church, was also in deep thought. And simply did not notice the state of chaos in the streets, which had still not recovered from the riots.
Qili has always strived to be faithful to orders and obedient to obligations. Strict requirements for ethics and morality. Therefore, his words and deeds are always well thought out, and the choices he makes are never beyond doubt.
Because of this, this is the first time that I have doubted my own behavior.
At first, it was for the purpose of supporting Tosaka Tokitomi. Qili came to the battlefield in which the teacher personally participated. But when he found out that Shi Chen's rival was Tong Yanye, Qili didn't help, but made a bit of a lazy behavior of observing in secret.
Because he understands the difference in strength between Shi Chen and Yan Ye, and in that situation, Shi Chen doesn't need help. If you simply take a bystander attitude, it can also be said to be in line with the judgment of cleanup.
But the actions that followed were completely out of his own duties.
By the time the wild goose fell from the roof of the apartment, Shi Chen may have thought that he had won a complete victory, and did not even go further to verify whether the enemy was really dead. Qili was surprised by the teacher's boldness, and originally went to verify Yanye's corpse out of the intention of making up for the teacher's carelessness...... But soon after, when he found the figure rolling down the path, he found that the wild goose was still breathing.
Of course, if it is a loyal lackey of the Tosaka camp, it is natural that he should be obliged to give Yanya a fatal blow immediately. But at that time, Qili's mind was reverberating from the conversation with Archer in the morning.
His advice is - if you want to really understand yourself. It must be more than just Emiya Kiritsugu - no, it is better to prioritize the life and death and future of Matsuriya than Kiritsu.
Overall, it was an unpleasant conversation. It's a joke that isn't worth listening to at all.
But what is it that makes Qili face the duel between Shichen and Yanye. I made the choice to break away from the role of a bystander. There is no need to stay on the battlefield at all if you don't think you have to help. Wouldn't it make more sense to search for other masters?
And the flames manipulated by Shi Chen finally captured the moment of the wild goose night...... No doubt. At that time, wasn't what I was thinking about a trace of disappointment?
By the time she came to her senses, Qili had already begun to apply healing magic to the injured body of the wild goose as an emergency treatment. Then the transport of Yan Ye, who was still in a coma but no longer in danger of his life, left the battlefield, avoided people's eyes, and secretly sent Yan Ye to the door of the Jian Tong Mansion. It all happened about fifteen minutes ago.
Yan Ye still has the nick of the spell on his hand. Although Qili did not witness the final act of the battle, Berserker seemed to be alive and well, no matter how badly wounded.
As she walked along the long road that stretched from Fukayama Town to the outskirts of Shintoto, she was tormented by her unanswered questions about why she had done what she did.
It's a world away from buying wine with unknown flavors. This is not an outright unprofitable behavior. So far. Qili also concealed Shi Chen's actions many times, and sometimes even gave him false reports, but those did not directly interfere with Shi Chen. The expectation of confronting Emiya Kiritsugu did not conflict with Shichen getting the Holy Grail.
However, prolonging the life of Shichen's old enemy, Tong Yanye, undoubtedly means antagonism with Shichen.
There is no need to explain at all, it means mutiny. Without any clear intentions, he did such a thing. Tonight, Kiri clearly crossed the line of being a loyal servant of Tosaka Tosaka.
Could it be that he was teased by Archer, the hero king?
The exhaustion of the mind is worse than the feet that are moving forward.
Qili suddenly wanted to talk to her father Lizheng. Although he has always been honest with Qili, his father will never be able to understand Qili's distress. But as a gift. If you think about it carefully, haven't you never talked to your father in the heart?
Even if he will disappoint his father, if he is not afraid to confide in his heart, even if it will make a decisive change in his relationship with his father, it may bring new revelation to Qili.
Qili had vague expectations in her heart. Put your worries aside for a moment and move on.
……
The death of Yan Feng Lizheng, and the consciousness of Yan Feng Qili. All of these entered Li Amen's eyes.
For the sake of the good things that might happen this night, Li Amen had to use all the magic stored in the Demon Dao Book "Immeasurable Death" used to maintain the existence of the Heavenly Kingdom. A large number of grass mud horses were sent to scout various intelligences.
"What kind of person will Yan Feng Qili become in the end?" Li Amen thought to himself, "Even with my guidance." But if the devastation caused by his father's death is not trivial, I wonder if I deliberately mentioned his daughter before, will I keep the last seed of hope in Qili's heart? It is precisely because of the death of her father that the seed of hope of her daughter has been sublimated, will Qili be truly redeemed because of this? Still is...... Slipping into an abyss even more terrifying than the original plot? ”
As for whether Qili would have been disgusted by Archer's revulsion and kill him if he had changed.
Or will it frustrate the evil of this world within the Holy Grail, and then give rise to new variables?
None of this is something that Amen Lee would consider.
If he has to think about everything 100% in his work, then he is not dead.
It is precisely because there is a hint of unpredictability that it is considered death. (To be continued......)
