Chapter Seventy-Three: Faith

"Plop! Thump! Thump! ”

In the large, quiet hollow, a sound similar to a pulse-beating echoed through the air.

Under Emiya Shirou's keen sight, every drop of liquid oozing from the quartz pillar was absorbed by the tentacles wrapped around the quartz pillar.

At the same time, Emiya Shirou discovers that the tentacles of these giant man-eating flowers are more than just climbing all over the quartz columns.

They also extend all the way to the walls of the large hollows, the ceilings of the caves and the ground, forming green walls of flesh.

Emiya Shirou instantly concluded that these monsters were the root of the twenty-fourth layer of anomalies.

These parasitic monsters absorb the energy of the dungeon and then multiply their body tissues, forming a labyrinth of flesh walls that cover the entire physical library.

"What a horrible monster!"

After a sigh, Emiya Shirou set his sights on another mysterious group in the Great Hollow.

Well, is it another plot that was deleted by the animation team?

It's lazy enough, animation team!

At the same time, it is not only Emiya Shirou who is paying attention to these mysterious people, but these mysterious people are also paying attention to Emiya Shirou and his party.

Seeing the existence of the sixteen people of Emiya Shirou, these people obviously panicked.

What followed was an endless killing intent.

"That's the orb!"

Hearing Lulune's shout, Asfie, who was also paying attention to these mysterious groups in front of her, hurriedly looked in the direction Lulune was pointing.

At the base of the quartz pillar, a jewel containing a fetus is set in the pillar.

The fetus inside is trembling and absorbing the nutrients in the quartz column.

It's like an unborn baby absorbing nutrients from its mother's placenta.

But this fetus is extremely selfish, it does not care about the safety of the mother, and constantly absorbs nutrients.

For the attention of Asfei and the others, Emiya Shirou didn't care, after all, he saw the traces of the orb as soon as he came in.

But what he cares more about than the orb is the masked man in a white robe with a mask on his face.

According to his impression, this guy is a guy who can make two moves with Bert.

The white-haired ghost, that's what that man used to be called.

"It's already here!"

Looking at the figures of Emiya Shirou and the others, the white-haired ghost laughed contemptuously.

And at this moment, in another mysterious group in the Great Hollow, a human wearing a robe of different colors ran up to the white-haired ghost and asked.

"What are you doing, why did you let them invade here!"

"The power of the cannibal flowers alone will not stop their invasion."

After responding to this person's inquiry calmly, the white-haired ghost suddenly said passionately: "Do things, remnants of the dark faction, become the cornerstone of protecting 'her'!" ”

Glancing at the orb, the robed man's eyes were misty.

"I don't need to say it, I'll do it too!"

Back in their group, the robes known as the remnants of the dark faction drew their blades.

Murderously looked at Emiya Shirou and the others.

...

"It's actually the remnants of the dark faction?"

Hearing the conversation between the two, whether it was Emiya Shirou or Yasfei, they all leaked a look of horror.

For the dark faction, both Asfi and Emiya Shirou know a lot about it.

It was one of the people who had set off the killing in Olari a few years ago.

That period was even called the Dark Ages in later generations.

And it was Finn and others who pacified the Dark Ages.

"Don't let the intruders go back alive!"

Hearing the leader's shout, the warriors of the dark faction rushed over in an instant.

"Beware of the enemy!"

"Don't keep your hands spent, the guys of the Dark Sect are ruthless!"

"Understood!"

After hearing Asphie's command, the members of the Hermes clan also became vigilant and fought with the adventurers of the dark faction who charged over.

But soon, they understood what the dark faction was.

Quickly wound the opponent's limbs, and then kick the knee to the enemy's abdomen.

Lulune, who had lost the opponent's ability to fight, pinned the enemy to the ground and began to ask the opponent's family.

For adventurers who fight monsters all day long, except for a few vicious guys, the vast majority of adventurers have no experience of killing people.

In the same way, they have no belief in killing.

Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, Lulune made a vicious expression, and then pulled out a bottle of potion from her backpack.

"It doesn't make sense if you don't speak, after all, this is an unlocking medicine!"

Looking at the potion shaking in the orc girl's hand, the man who was caught trembled.

But soon, he was aware of his gaze into the distance.

"God, I dedicate ...... to you in keeping my covenant"

The man who made up his mind pulled out a red gem from his bosom with his scarred arm. Looking at the gem, Lulune's pupils plummeted.

Flame Stone, a material dropped from the Flame Rock in the depths of the dungeon, is highly flammable and explosive.

A quick reflex Lulune kicked the enemy away, but it was too late.

"This life will go to Elise's side!!"

A violent explosion rose quickly, and even though she had quickly jumped to the side, Lulune was still injured by the explosion.

The man's body was blown to pieces in an instant.

"Self, self-destruct!"

Blown away by the hot wind and falling far away, Lulune stared blankly at the place where the fire was ignited.

Even though she had been burned at this time, she did not react to the fall that was not light.

At this time, she was very confused.

How can it be done to such an extent?

Also surprised was Emiya Shirou, although he had heard of the cruelty of the dark faction, but he didn't expect it to be so cruel.

Are you so cruel to yourself?

Looking at the guy who blew himself up, Emiya Shirou's eyes almost popped out.

Good guys, I kind of know why the animation team was cut, and I guess it won't pass the review!

Using this explosion as a trigger, explosions can be seen everywhere in the ensuing battle.

Once they see that they are unable to fight again, these guys will detonate the Flame Stone and try to die together.

Therefore, Emiya Shirou also had to kill him directly.

This is the first time Emiya Shirou has killed someone.

Unlike the battles of the heroic spirits in the past, those were just puppets.

But these are indeed living people.

Although I knew that there would be such a day, I didn't expect it to come so suddenly.

But Emiya Shirou doesn't regret it, since he has embarked on this path, then don't complain.

Killing is killing, and there is nothing to glorify.

After all, Emiya Shirou had already decided, so what if everyone died for the comfort of his sister.

This body is already riddled with sins!

"Projection begins!"

After beheading the enemy in front of him with a single sword, Emiya Shirou instantly projected several weapons and projected them.

As the target of Emiya Shirou's attack, these adventurers of the dark faction were set on the ground by Emiya Shirou without any resistance.

To keep your teammates safe, all enemies will be eliminated.

Even if the other party is human.

After that battle, Emiya Shirou had already woken up.

There is no quantitative comparison between people.

In order to protect the people around him, even if he exterminates all the people, this is his consciousness!
