Travel back in time to before the destruction of the Grand Temple.

Outside the gates of the central temple, a battle is about to begin.

The atmosphere in the air was extremely solemn, no one spoke casually, and the great pressure pressed on their hearts, so that they had to concentrate on facing the enemy.

The girl in dark purple armor clenched her weapon, a large shield.

The shield is cross-shaped, with fairy runes engraved on it, and blood-red, demonic runes are inscribed on it.

The girl's face was expressionless, her eyes were empty, and there was an ominous magic on her body.

Cuchulainn's and Ishtar's expressions were not relaxed, they could feel that the girl in front of them was not simple, although their eyes were very empty, they could still feel the madness hidden in her heart.

It seems that she is the Avenger.

And Fujimaru Rika, who was protected by these two servants, couldn't believe that the girl standing in front of him would be the one in his impression.

Why is this happening? Matthew, why did you become like this?

Rika Fujimaru had too many words and too many questions to ask her, but now it was clear that Matthew didn't have the intellect to talk to people.

Therefore, if you want to have a normal conversation, you can only knock her down and make her powerless.

Adjusting her mentality, Fujimaru Rika clenched the shield in her hand and stood firmly side by side with the two servants.

Cu Chulainn glanced around with slanted eyes, and he was still a little surprised to see Fujimaru Rika standing firmly with him.

After all, this girl is also an ordinary human.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"One thing, but it's nothing, nothing compared to the battles I've been through before."

"Then it seems that you have quite a lot of experience."

"Thanks for the compliment."

Cú Chulainn listened to the girl's words, and he heard nervousness and unease, but more determination.

"Not bad."

He thought so in his heart, and then he said to Fujimaru Rika: "Be careful, little girl, the guy we are going to face next will be even more difficult than the Sphinx just now." ”

"yes, I know."

"Since you have chosen to stand with us, then I will not persuade you to retreat, you came here with us, although you have the protection of equipment, but you did come here with this weak body."

"So, don't die later, there aren't many people who can think of you."

"That little girl in front of you is your acquaintance, you came here to take her back, right?"

"Hmm."

"That's good."

Cu Chulainn withdrew the staff in his left hand, held the gun in both hands and said, "Since you have the courage to walk here side by side with us, then I, Ku Chulainn, will respond to your courage today and defeat her for you!" ”

"Okay, okay, stop talking, she's going to get ready to do it."

Ishtar, who had been following Matthew's movements, saw that Matthew was ready to make a move, and the two were still talking, so he immediately interrupted them.

The two of them immediately prepared to meet the enemy.

At this time, Cú Chulainn, as if remembering something, asked Ishtar: "Do you still have the potion that gave me a drink earlier?" ”

"The one that keeps you mentally normal?"

"yes, that's it."

"I'm sorry for this, I only have one of the elixirs that heal people's spirits, and it took a lot of effort from a doctor on my side to get them, and there are only three in total."

“………”

Ishtar thought of something, and just as she wanted to ask, Cúchulainn interrupted her.

"Concentrate on the enemy, I'm fine."

At this time, Matthew, who had been silent, moved.

Without any declaration of war, he took a step forward with his left foot.

In the next moment, Matthew's figure disappeared with a cracking sound of the floor.

In the face of Matthew, who burst out with such extreme speed, Fujimaru Rika subconsciously put the big shield in front of him.

Boom!!!

With a muffled sound, Fujimaru Rika's whole person was knocked out by this huge force.

It wasn't until Rika Fujimaru was knocked away that Ishtar and Cúchulainn reacted to Matthew's approach.

"At this speed, how is it possible!"

Without answering the question in the hearts of the two of them, after beating Fujimaru Rika, Matthew stabilized his center of gravity and rushed over at an accelerated speed again, trying to pursue.

Of course, Cú Chulainn, who reacted, would not let her get her wish, and he also used his high speed to rush towards Mathieu.

Although he was a little surprised by Matthew's high speed, he Cú Chulainn was not a master who easily threw in the towel.

Rika Fujimaru, who was knocked out, was very uncomfortable in the air, and the huge force coming from the shield made her hands numb.

If it weren't for the protection of the exoskeleton, she could have directly shaken her arms into meat sauce just now.

Adjusting her body in the air, Rika Fujimaru stepped on the ground in a fairly steady position.

Still, the remaining force pushed her backwards.

Just then Mathius arrived, and just as she was about to continue her pursuit, Cú Chulainn arrived.

The bright red spear stabbed Matthew in the back, intending to force her to give up.

But to Cúchulainn's surprise, Matthew didn't choose to defend back, she directly hit a shield and knocked Fujimaru Rika away again.

The same huge force as before hit Fujimaru Rika's shield again, and the huge impact directly hit Fujimaru Rika's hands unconscious, and even the sound of bones breaking sounded, making her release her shield in the air.

At the same time that Rika Fujimaru was knocked away again, the magic spear also accurately stabbed Matthew's heart.

Pierced, but not pierced.

The magic spear pierced Matthew's armor, but that was about it.

Cú Chulainn could feel that at the same time as the shot was stabbed, there was an invisible wall blocking the front of the magic spear, and it was this wall that neutralized most of the impact of the magic spear.

And now, Cú Chulainn, who wanted to collect the gun, found that the gun could not be recovered.

The invisible wall was pierced by the magic spear at the same time, and the magic spear was also imprisoned there.

Matthew took a step back with his right foot and waved back with his shield in both hands.

Even though it hadn't hit his body yet, the strong wind made Cu Chulainn instantly give up the gun in his hand, and while retreating, he painted the rune with both hands with both hands, and fired a powerful lightning strike to cover himself.

Matthew raised his shield to block the lightning strike, and at this time, Ishtar also stealthily circled behind Matthew and fired several powerful artillery strikes.

The magic cannon hit, but just as the magic gun was fended off, the magic cannon was blocked by the invisible wall.

Unable to strike a single blow, Ishtar gave up his intention to continue the attack and flew in the direction of Fujimaru Rika instead.

And Cú Chulainn also intervened to stop Matthew, who was about to continue the pursuit.

On the other side, Ishtar first picked up the big shield and then came to Rika Fujimaru to check on her.

Ishtar reached out and took off her goggles, saw her pained expression, looked down and saw her hands twitching.

Without hesitation, Ishtar took out the healing potion that Asclepius had prepared for her.

There are only two of these things per person, and one has been used to restore combat effectiveness, and this is the last.

After drinking the potion, Fujimaru Ritsuka's originally painful expression immediately eased a lot, and her convulsive hands also calmed down.

With her ordinary physical fitness, it would take a little time for her injuries to fully recover, and after placing Fujimaru Rika, Ishtar immediately returned to the battlefield.

Coming to the sky above the battlefield, Ishtar aimed at Matthew's figure with a magic cannon fired ten times.

Sensing a threat from the heavens, Matthew immediately turned around and stood in front of him.

Boom, boom, boom!

The ferocious magic spread, and Cúchulainn hurriedly retreated in order not to be affected, and at the same time recalled his magic spear.

The magic cannon bombarded the ground one after another, and the dim smoke and dust shrouded it, making it impossible to see what was going on.

After the bombardment, the smoke fell, and the girl holding the large shield walked out of it almost intact.
