521 Beast
As I said before, this world is very grand, and the worldview is very large, far more than what Rieg sees so far.
This time in the dimensional shuttle, although Rig came to the fairy country of Britain as an Persona Zone, but the Fairy Country Britain is only one of the Persona Belts in this world, and the collapse phenomenon that has caused a bad impact on the history of pan-humanity here is only one of the many disasters that threaten humanity.
That's why a human security institution like the Chaldea was born.
The purpose of its existence is to restore human reason, protect pan-human history, and allow pan-human history to continue to develop and continue in the face of various threats.
It's not the first time that Rika Fujimaru has encountered an event that threatens pan-human history, and before the Fairy Country Britain is a strange story, he has experienced many events, and there are even some more dangerous existences than the collapse caused by the Fairy Kingdom Britain.
Therefore, Fujimaru Ritsuka has repaired more than one anomaly that can have a bad effect on human reason, and has also cut off the anomalies that threaten the survival of pan-human history, and there are as many as five, and the fairy country of Britain is the sixth, which is not a very unusual thing for him.
But Fujimaru Ritsuka's glorious achievements, every time it appears, it means that there is a disaster that has occurred.
Beryl Gath was only a Chaldean antagonist, not a catastrophe that threatened pan-human history.
However, Koyanskaya is different.
She is a real disaster.
She is the enemy of humanity.
She is one of the seven great disasters rejected by human history, and is a type of existence called "human evil".
The so-called human evil refers to the embodiment of various disasters that threaten the history of mankind and will destroy mankind.
They were born from human civilization and became more and more powerful with the development of human beings.
They will destroy civilization from the inside of society, and they are the equivalent of the cancer cells of the world.
They are the stain on humanity, the sludge that has settled in the history of mankind, and the evil that must be destroyed by mankind.
They are born because of the animalistic nature of humans, so they are called ——— "Beasts".
If the Heroic Spirit is an existence that will accept the call of the world itself and humanity when the world is in trouble, and will fight to protect humanity and protect the world, then human evil is the opposite of the existence that is committed to destroying humanity and destroying the world.
The relationship between human evil and the summoning of the Heroic Spirit is equivalent to the self-destruction mechanism and safety device of human beings, which are diametrically opposed and different in nature.
Koyanskaya is one of the evils of humanity, and is known as the fourth beast of the beast of bounty——— Beast IV.
To be more precise, she is the juvenile of BeastIV, the unfinished human evil, the unfinished fourth beast.
However, even if it is not finished, when this young beast reveals its true nature, she is still a terrible disaster that can threaten the existence of all mankind.
The Chaldeans had encountered two fully embodied beasts, Beast I, who had the principle of mercy, and Beast II, who had the principle of return.
And these two beasts, one of which once burned the whole man and turned the earth into a sea of fire, and the other once wreaked havoc at the end of the god era, almost destroying all life on the earth.
In order to defeat these two beasts, Chaldea did not know how many difficulties he overcame, and he did not know how many heroes and heroes he had assisted, and finally he did not die in all kinds of dangers that could be called despair, and defeated the two beasts.
In other words, this is not something that can be defeated by one person or a force, or even an existence that human beings can defeat, and if we do not gather all kinds of conditions, all kinds of mysteries, and all kinds of powerful help, and gather the forces of the entire history of mankind, work together, and fight together, then there is absolutely no chance of victory.
Now, one of such terrifying beings, its incomplete hatchlings, appeared in front of Rieger.
"Boom!"
As the world itself roared like a mournful roar, a dark storm began to appear.
That's a different curse from Morse.
It was the manifestation of the power of another dimension.
The terrifying black storm was like the darkness that engulfed the world, with Koyanskaya as the center, and quickly spread out in all directions.
"Be careful!"
"Come here, everyone!"
"Oops!"
Artoria and the others exclaimed, and before they could make some decent moves, the dark storm literally engulfed the entire world, dragging the world into darkness.
In the darkness, the black storm was still raging, letting the howling wind drown out the voices of the people.
Li Ge's face was also condensed, and a solemn color gradually appeared in his eyes.
At this moment, he actually felt unprecedented pressure and a deadly crisis that he had never felt before.
In the past, the more dangerous the predicament, the more excited Rieger would be, even if the enemy was stronger than himself, and the situation was extremely dangerous, he would still feel the excitement and excitement, and follow his inner instinct and desire, not retreat, but advance, take the initiative to rush into the danger, and fight to the end.
But this time, he obviously felt unprecedented pressure and a deadly crisis that he had never felt before, but Li Ge found that he couldn't get excited at all.
Just because, what appears in front of him is not a danger for him alone, but a natural disaster for the whole world and all mankind.
The malice, hostility, and murderous intent that arose from the indiscriminate treatment of the human life group, Rieg could clearly feel, feel, and recognize.
In other words, what the other party is looking at is not himself, but all the humans in this world.
And he, in the eyes of the other party, is just a part of that small existence.
"Mercy, protection, love, contempt, killing, love."
"Sometimes they slaughter and exterminate with fire, and sometimes they stretch out their hands to play with them."
"This is you human race, you human race."
"It is for this reason that the beast of pleasure is born and sits on the end of your eternity."
In the darkness, the fox girl who was captivating the country and the city seemed to decompose as the storm swept away, and disappeared in place.
In its place was a giant beast that hid in the darkness, hidden under the storm, with no full view or body, only its tail wagging in its head.
"This is the roar of the beast."
"This is the wee of the beast."
"The Fourth Beast, the Beast of Pleasure, Tamamo Witchpond Koyanskaya, descends here."
"Despair, Human."
With the sound of a distant voice that seemed to come from all over the world, the beast hidden in the darkness disappeared.
“————!”
A chill surged in the hearts of everyone present, including Rige.
"Not good!"
Da Vinci and Tristan had sensed the danger and cried out with pale faces.
"Uh-huh......!"
Artoria reflexively raised the staff of her choice, feeling nothing more than what she had to do.
Rig was even ahead of everyone and raised his hand first.
However, someone was faster than Rieger.
"Manifest!"
Matthew came to everyone at some point and raised his shield.
"Lord Camelot, a distant city!"
That's a treasure.
The so-called treasure refers to the final armament of the servant, the miracle of materialization.
It is an armament, symbol, or trick that has been held by heroes in various legends and praised by later generations, and it can be a weapon or a certain skill, and it has a powerful power that modern magicians cannot match, and once used, it will exert the same effect as recorded in legends.
For example, King Arthur, whose holy sword, which is widely circulated in modern times, is her treasure.
Treasure is the trump card of the servant.
Noble Phantasm is the last resort of the Servant.
Originally, when he was in Salisbury, Lancelot, the fairy knight, when he was finally preparing to fight Rigg in a one-off battle, planned to use the Noble Phantasm formed by combining the power of himself and Lancelot, the knight of the Round Table.
When the fairy knight Gawain fought with Rieg in the royal palace of Camelot, the giant phenomenon caused by her return to her ancestors after breaking her horn is also a treasure formed by combining the power of the fairy knight Gawain with her own power.
At this time, Matthew activated his treasure, allowing the shield in his hand to exert its true power.
"Bang!"
As Matthew knocked his shield down, the castle depicted on his shield lit up.
A chalky castle suddenly centered on Matthew and gradually appeared in the surrounding area.
This is none other than King Arthur's legendary chalk city——— Camelot.
This chalky city was also the capital of Britain in pan-human history and was home to King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table.
Matthew's Noble Phantasm is the ultimate defense that uses the Round Table where the Knights of the Round Table sit as a shield, and it is the absolute protection that can summon the center of Camelot and resist all attacks once activated.
Its strength echoes the user's mental power, and as long as the user's heart does not give in, the walls of the Chalk City will never collapse, and can even reflect enemy attacks.
As a result, Matthew's Noble Phantasm secured everyone present and surrounded them within the city walls.
"Boom !!"
Almost at the same time, a terrifying attack fell on the walls of the Chalk City.
It was an attack of an unknown body, like a raging storm, like a pitch-black flame, like the bite of a giant beast, or like a slash from a tail as sharp as a giant blade.
When it landed on the walls of the Chalk City, not only did the entire Chalk City shake, but even the world engulfed by the dark storm trembled violently.
"Uh-huh......!"
Matthew suddenly snorted, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth.
"Matthew!"
When da Vinci saw this, he couldn't help but cry out.
"I—I'm fine......!"
Matthew shouted back without looking back, but then fell to his knees.
"Boom !!"
The attack of the unknown body roared again, landing on the walls of the chalk city, and the roar that stirred up shook the entire dark world.
"Ahem......!"
Matthew coughed up a mouthful of blood, and her pretty face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Starlight!"
Artoria couldn't take it anymore and hurriedly used magic to enchant Matthew.
"[Dia Flattel]!"
Rig also unleashed a chant-free spell that fused green light particles into Matthew's body.
"Boom !!"
"Boom !!"
"Boom !!"
The attacks of the unknown body did not stop, constantly attacking the chalk wall, intending to destroy, shatter, and tear it apart.
Looking at the momentum of the attack, Li Ge could tell everyone with certainty that even if he was hit once without any protection or use any defensive magic, he would have to be seriously injured and fall to the ground on the spot.
Matthew is a shield soldier, a servant who specializes in defense, and if it is only about defense, no one present can match it.
What's more, in Rieger's memory, any person he has met so far may not be as good as Matthew at this moment in terms of defense alone.
But such a Matthew, in the case of using the treasure, was easily injured.
No, it's not.
It was because of the use of the Noble Phantasm that only Matthew was injured.
Li Ge remembered that although Matthew's Noble Phantasm was very strong, as long as he didn't give up, even the attacks on the surface that could evaporate the entire earth would be blocked by him, but this Noble Phantasm would not have an effect on Matthew.
In other words, Matthew can protect everyone, but not himself, and is being attacked by the Beast's hatchlings in the current tense.
"Assemble it, the breath of the earth—my name is Alver."
"Wood Spirit—fulfill my wish."
"Mori's clothes—my name is Alver."
At the moment, Li Ge didn't even think about it, and directly applied the two defensive spells of [Fateful Dream] and [Tulle Breath] to Matthew.
"[Sanctuary Protection]."
"[Power Field]."
"[Armor Enhancement]."
"[Advanced Endurance Enhancement]."
"Unyielding."
"Infinity Barrier."
"[Advanced Hardening]."
"Cloak of Chaos."
"[Defense against evil]."
"[Elemental Form: Divine]."
Rig unleashed one defensive magic after another on Matthew, causing Matthew's defense to climb at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Boom-boom-boom-boom-"
Terrible attacks are still bombarding the walls of the Chalk City, causing frequent vibrations in the Chalk City and the dark world.
But as Rieger's defensive magic was activated one after another, Matthew, who was constantly flashing with magical light on his body, gradually found that he could resist the enemy's attacks.
"How? Can you hold on? ”
Rig pressed his hand on Matthew's shoulder, looking directly at the girl who held up her shield and held up a piece of heaven for her friends.
"Hmm!"
Feeling the gradually decreasing pressure and slowly recovering from his injuries, Matthew turned his head and met Riege's gaze, and nodded firmly.
Rieg smiled nonchalantly.
Then, the smile on his face disappeared.
"Pounds!"
In the next second, Li Ge suddenly disappeared in place, turning into a flash of fire and rising into the sky.
The light of the fire illuminated the darkness and dispelled the storm, like a star of hope rising from the city of chalk, bursting into the behemoth hidden in the darkness.
"Boom!"
The black knife slashed down, and the fire of the red lotus, which purified all evil, suddenly fell from the sky and slammed into the body of the giant beast.
“■■■■■■■■■■■■——!”
The cry that shook the world resounded in the sky.
