Chapter 39: Attack and Escape
"Because of the abnormal situation here, I won't sell more guanzi, and I will make a long story short."
"If we want to get the water of the Fountain of Cadmus, we must defeat the guardian of the Fountain, the Dragon. There is no other means of obtaining spring water. ”
"And you also know the strength of the strong dragon, in terms of strength alone, it is still above the floor master we encountered."
After Thiogne finished speaking, Diona then said with a grin: "I still have the experience of being blown away by it and messing up my internal organs!" ”
A good guy deserves to be you, and you can smile at this kind of thing, so you really don't care.
Although he wanted to complain, Emiya Shirou finally held back.
After all, he knew that the reason why Tiogne said the precautions for confirmation was actually to give him and Refia a good listen.
So it's better to listen carefully at this time.
"Thiogne...... How exactly should you fight? ”
Hearing Ace's question, Theogne said seriously: "It's still a normal plan, I, Ace, and Tiona will suppress the attack of the strong dragon together, and then Refia and Shirou will suppress him with magic attacks." ”
"When it's scared, we'll clean it up in one go! So Refia, Shirou is up to you this time! ”
"Don't worry!"
"Yes...... Be! ”
Seeing that a consensus had been reached, Theogne led the four of them on, and soon they reached the room at the end of the road.
The Fountain of Cadmus is in this room.
The five of them crept forward, cautiously peeking into the room.
Soon, however, Ace noticed something unusual.
"It's so quiet!"
No longer hiding her presence, Ace walked straight in.
"Ace!"
Looking at the strange Ace, the four of Tiogne had no choice but to follow and rush in.
But the situation inside was completely unexpected.
The trees that had grown in the room were now broken, as if they had been crushed by something.
The surrounding walls and floors were crushed into powder by an unknown object.
But what is even more puzzling is that there are traces of melting everywhere around.
"It's a new breed of bug."
Emiya Shirou had already confirmed what had happened at a glance, after all, on this fifty-first floor, there were no monsters that could melt matter except for new species of insects.
Searching for it, Tionne and the others soon found clues around the Fountain of Cadmus.
"This is, the corpse of a strong dragon?"
After comparing the staggering amount of ash on the ground with the size of the predator in his memory, Tiogne came to this conclusion.
Ace, who found something, reached out and took out the golden glow of the dragon's wing skin from the ashes.
The skin of the strong dragon.
This is an extremely valuable drop, and even after the death of a strong dragon, there is only a small chance that it will appear.
"Sure enough, it's the corpse of a strong dragon!"
Thionne, who was becoming more and more uneasy in his heart, hurriedly said: "Hurry up and fill the spring water, and we will leave immediately!" ”
What is happening here is just so unusual.
"Yes!"
Emiya Shirou and Refia hurriedly took out the equipment specially for drawing water and began to collect it.
And because the dragon was dead and didn't use the spring water, the amount of spring water collected was far more than they were prepared to collect.
"It seems that there is no need to go to two places to collect, this one will be enough!"
"Indeed!"
After putting the water bottle away, the group of five people left the strong dragon's room and quickly rushed back.
"Who do you think the dragon would have done?"
"According to common sense, it must have been done by other monsters!"
After fooling his sister a few vaguely, Tione recalled in his heart all kinds of strange things he had encountered on this level.
"It's definitely an abnormal state of affairs, I just don't know what form it will take!"
At this time, the vigilance in Emiya Shirou's heart has also been raised to the maximum.
If the premise is to meet a new species, then they are most likely to be on their way back.
With all kinds of different hearts, everyone kept moving forward.
"Ah!!h
Suddenly, a scream came from the depths of the labyrinth!
"It's Raul!" The five of them said in unison.
The five of them immediately made a decision, and ran towards the place where the screams came from, and soon the appearance of the monster appeared in front of their eyes.
It was a caterpillar-like creature with a yellowish-green color.
On either side of their bodies, there are more than a dozen legs and feet, almost like a combination of a caterpillar and a centipede.
It was a monster that Tiogne had never encountered before.
New species!
Looking at the monster in front of him, Emiya Shirou's eyes lit up, and finally appeared, a new species.
Faced with the monster in front of her, Tiona, who didn't know what fear was, picked up the big double blade in her hand and rushed forward.
"Stop, Diona!"
Finn's voice came in time, but Diona, who was already on the top, did not pause and directly inserted the big double blade into the monster's body.
And then......
Then her twin blades, worth 120,000,000,000 Pharis, melted into liquid.
"Ahh Oh my big double blade! Don't play like this! ”
"Didn't Finn already tell you not to go? You idiot! ”
Bert, who was chased by the monster and ran over, looked at Tiona with a crying voice and complained helplessly.
Looking at this scene, even Emiya Shirou wanted to laugh a little, why can this person be so brave!
Rendezvous with the second team, a group of nine Loki clan elites began to desperately escape.
"Hey, what's that, Finn, my weapon!"
"I don't know, we were also attacked suddenly."
Looking back at the enemy behind him, Emiya Shirou hurriedly said, "There are a lot of monsters behind, and it is estimated that it is more than a hundred." ”
"What?"
Tiana, who thought it was just one, almost stared out her eyes, this kind of monster alone was enough, but there were hundreds of them.
"Why can't I see it?"
"Lao Tzu has skills, do you have them!"
The increase in clairvoyance for Emiya Shirou's eyesight is not a little bit or two.
"Commander, you're okay!"
"We're fine, but Raul is badly wounded, and he's been hit directly by that liquid."
Looking at Raul, who was being held on the shoulders by Grace, everyone shuddered.
At this time, Raul had fallen into a state of weakness, and a foul smell emanated from his body.
At the same time, the skin on his body and even the light armor were all melted, and his whole body was almost black purple.
With just one blow, a veteran LV.4 went into a near-death state.
This has brought everyone's vigilance to the maximum.
It must not be attacked.
"You see, these new species have even attacked the black rhinos on the road, I'm afraid they are the cause of the strange things we encountered!"
Hearing Emiya Shirou's words, Tionne hurriedly told the puzzled Finn what they had seen.
"Really? I didn't expect that guy to even be able to defeat a strong dragon! ”
"What a monster!"
The fleeing crowd ran around the maze like headless flies.
And at this moment, Ace suddenly asked, "Finn, can you defeat those monsters?" ”
Hearing Ace's inquiry, everyone turned their eyes to Finn.
After a second of relief, Finn turned back to Ace and said, "The attack itself is effective, but just like Diona just now, it is not worth losing a weapon in one attack." ”
“......”
"It's even harder to be an enemy of that number of opponents."
Looking at the somewhat silent crowd, Finn continued, "We can use magic, though. If we can buy time to chant magic, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop! ”
"Then I'll do it, I don't need to sing about my Super Fantasy Collapse!"
Emiya Shirou, who had been observing the movements of the new species, heard Finn's method and hurriedly volunteered to shout.
"No, Shirou's Super Fantasy Honkai is too powerful and will involve all of us, it's too narrow here!"
Indeed, Emiya Shirou understood as soon as he was reminded.
The passage here is spacious, but it's for hand-to-hand combat. If he misses a nuclear explosion, no one will be able to escape.
"In that case, only ...... are left who are eligible"
Feeling the gaze of everyone, Refia exclaimed.
"Alas!"
