Chapter 360: Tian Ji Horse Racing

In the dense forests of the Okutama Mountains.

This unknown battle is taking place, and the only spectators are the birds flying in the gray sky.

On the ground, Zheng Shu walked quickly through the jungle, showing agility that did not match his tall stature at all.

In the process, he occasionally reached out to block and flicked off the flying black metal arrows.

Each bow and arrow carried a great deal of power, even if Zheng Shu's body defense and strength were enough to support it, but the impact carried by the arrow still made his feet unconsciously sink into the ground every time he blocked.

Buzz Buzz Buzz ......

He had just pulled his feet out of the rocks when Zheng Shu heard a continuous humming sound in the distance due to the rapid vibration of the bowstring.

"Here we go again!" Zheng Shu's face darkened, and he raised his steps and quickly left the place.

Above him, the blue sky suddenly darkened, and the volley of death formed an iron wall of steel that wanted to cut through all obstacles in the firing line.

The metal arrows broke the conventional imagination of human beings, forming a wall of arrows in mid-air, covering the area where Zheng Shu was, as if there was an entire group army on the other side of the mountain pulling their bows and shooting.

However, this is impossible, although bows and arrows were one of the tools used by humans to take hostile lives at the beginning of their existence, but in the modern battlefield, almost no one uses this kind of thing anymore.

And it's not a group army that does all this, in fact, it's just one person.

Just a servant, to be precise.

In the blink of an eye, the "arrow wall" carrying the sonic boom had descended on Zheng Shu's area, the solid trunk was shattered through, the obstructed dirt slope was completely crushed, and the huge rock was blasted into debris.

In an instant, the entire area of the jungle was completely destroyed, as if it had been bombarded by a heavy fire battalion.

Zheng Shu was the only one in the area that hadn't been destroyed, and he relied on the subtle reflection of his sword clusters and the sound of the wind to deal with every arrow of death that came at him, mainly relying on his agile pace to dodge.

Of course, because the density of the arrows is so dense, there may only be a gap between each one that is less than two palms wide, so even the most amazing dodge ability cannot be completely dodged.

In this case, he can only stretch out his fist to flick the arrows that come from the shooting, and if he can't bounce off, he can only use his body to carry it completely.

Fortunately, Zheng Shu's body's defense is strong enough, and even in the face of the arrow of death that is enough to break through mountains and gravel, it can be easily protected.

But no matter how much Zheng Shu opened his eyes and raised his vision to the limit, he couldn't see the shooter.

Theoretically, it should be easy to judge the position of the shooter by following the direction of the arrow, but the opponent seems to be moving at high speed in the mountains while continuously firing arrows at Zheng Shu, so each shot comes from a different direction, even the "arrow wall" just shot is composed of different batches of arrows in different directions.

"What kind of monster is this, is there such a strong person in this Holy Grail War?"

Zheng Shu pulled his body out of the rubble again.

That's why he's been dodging arrows as much as he can, the destructive power of the opponent's bow and arrow is not too strong for him, but the impact is more troublesome, each time it's enough to make his feet sink a little deeper in the mountains.

It should be said that the enemy did choose a good place, although the roots in the jungle look very hard, but at the same time there is a lot of decaying soil, once the force is too strong, his legs will even sink directly to the knees.

And the resulting inconvenience will make him bear more arrows, and Zheng Shu was even directly knocked to the ground when he was most troublesome.

Although Zheng Shu quickly lifted the soil around him and crawled out of it, he had already seen that the enemy's purpose was very strange, and it seemed that he was not planning to kill him, but more like containment.

Looking at the more than twenty arrows that shot at him again, Zheng Shu sighed, and suddenly felt a little headache.

"Is that guy on the other side endless? I've just finished shooting a rain of arrows, how can I continue shooting again, isn't this guy's arm really not tired? ”

Dodging most of the arrows, and bouncing off two bows and arrows that were really impossible to dodge, Zheng Shu ran quickly towards the direction where the arrows were flying.

Although he knew very well that the other party was likely to have shifted his position, Zheng Shu also had to try to see if he could catch the other side.

On the other side, Arash moved his position quickly, and even in the rugged mountains, the crimson bow in his hand still looked very stable.

After completing a round of shooting, he didn't care about his results, but continued to pull the bowstring and aim at Zheng Shu.

The golden spirits converged on the bowstring, and when he fully pulled the longbow, three black metal arrows were also placed on the bow.

Although the effects look similar, the three metal arrows are not illusions made of magic, but real physical bows and arrows.

The reason for this regression is entirely dependent on the special inherent skill that Arash acquired after being summoned as a Servant: bow crafting.

This is due to the fact that Arash was granted wisdom from the goddess Almati and was both the designer and maker of the "bow", and he could instantly make bows and arrows as long as he had the materials.

Although bows require material materials, arrows can normally be made from their own mana, so Arash can intermittently release countless arrows.

Conversely, with the help of this inherent skill, he only needs to have enough materials to continuously create physical arrows.

For a top-tier archer like Arash, the difference between the destructive power of using magical arrows and physical arrows is not too big. Even because magic arrows are easier to make, they may be better at firing speed.

However, in some special cases, physical arrows still have advantages that magic arrows cannot match.

For example, in the previous face of Cúchulainn's Arrow Avoidance Protection, if Arash used a physical arrow, his arrows would not be burned so easily, and even if they were hindered by their inherent skills, they would transfer the impact to Cúchulainn's body before they were completely burned.

And the same is true when facing Zheng Shu.

In order to deal with Zheng Shu's overly powerful enemy, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen carefully investigated all the information he had appeared, so he came to the conclusion that pure magic attacks had no effect on Zheng Shu at all, and would even be absorbed by him.

For this reason, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen deliberately allocated a part of the materials needed by Semiramis to make treasures and provide them to Arash, so that when he faced Zheng Shu, he could always use his inherent skills to create physical arrows to damage the enemy.

"Even if you use a physical arrow, you won't be able to do damage."

A thought flashed through Arash's mind, from the beginning of the battle to the present, the defense displayed by the other party was simply a bit beyond common sense.

It's acceptable that the tolerance for impact and damage is so high, and Arash's own strong skills up to EX level can achieve the same result, but in terms of protection, it's a bit too outrageous.

Until now, Arash found that his attack did not cause any damage to his opponent.

Whether it's a rain of arrows with rapid fire or an armor-piercing arrow with a charged attack, it seems to be the same thing in the eyes of the other party, and not even a white spot is left on the skin.

"If you want to inflict damage on this enemy, you may really need me to free my own Noble Phantasm......"

Although he was thinking, Arash's men were not slow at all, and after releasing the bowstring to shoot the arrows that were on it, they pulled it away again the moment the bowstring was reset.

The trembling sound of the bowstring rang out, and more than twenty arrows shot towards Zheng Shu's position again in one breath.

This is not a move that ordinary people can master, and to put it bluntly, the person who can unleash this kind of attack is definitely not human.

And the arrows that Arash shoots are also with extraordinary speed and power, and they continue to cut through the mountains of the Okutama Mountains.

In just a few minutes, the originally towering mountain was visibly peeled off.

Neither side had the slightest intention of stopping, and continued to maintain a high-speed maneuver towards the new jungle.

For Arash, this kind of battle was familiar to him, because he had hunted like this during his lifetime, but when hunting, he would not use such a high frequency of "arrow walls".

The voice of Shiro Amakusa's previous advice also echoed in his mind: "If you find danger, retreat immediately, you only need to hold him for a short time." ”

Amakusa Shiro's eyes were sincere, and he really thought so in his heart.

And Arash also knew very well that judging from the available information, he really couldn't defeat the enemy in front of him.

But as a servant, how can you not become the master's blade and kill the enemy? Even if Amakusa Shiro Shizhen himself can't be regarded as his master, he still has a similar status in his heart.

Just as Arash galloped into battle for his monarch during his lifetime, since he has spoken, then he has accepted the order to delay the time for you!

Even in the face of such a terrible enemy, you just need to survive it.

In this regard, Arash has enough confidence in his body.

Secretly determined in his heart, Arash took a deep breath, and after firing the bow and arrows quickly, he no longer pointed the longbow at the enemy's position, but raised it again towards the sky.

Zheng Shu was habitually blocking the flying arrows, and suddenly found that the opponent's attack had a gap again, and he immediately stopped, maintained his posture, and waited without slackening.

In the next moment, the sky was dyed black again. The rush of death, which covered almost the entire sky, fell from the sky like a torrential rain.

"Interesting."

Zheng Shu's fists collided together, but instead of paying attention to the angry waves of arrows in the sky, he quickly scanned the surrounding jungle with a hidden rune in his eyes - no matter how strong the enemy's physique was, there would inevitably be a pause after firing this blow, and this moment was enough for him to find the enemy's trace.

……

……

"Archer can't hold it anymore."

In the dimly lit church, a transparent light curtain appeared in mid-air out of thin air, and the scene that appeared in the light curtain was the scene of the battle between Arash and Zheng Shu.

Watching Arash shoot a rain of arrows as dense as a wall for the third time, Semiramis frowned instead of the joy of imminent victory, and Shiro Amakusa, who was next to her, only nodded silently.

"How's going on Lancer?"

"The exorcism enchantment has been arranged, after all, it is temporarily arranged, although the effect is good, but it will still take a while to fully play its role, fortunately, the enemy has not left." Semiramis took a general look at the situation on the other side, "Is it too late?" ”

Seeing that Arash was moving at great speed again in the light curtain and kept shooting, Semiramis checked the stock of materials and shook his head helplessly.

"This Zheng Shu's defense is a bit too much to imagine, and the strength and speed are still very strong, if Archer doesn't want to be caught, he must keep shooting obstacles, but in this way, the material consumption is too serious, and it is estimated that it will not take long to run out."

"So fast?" This time, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen also showed a surprised expression.

It was the material he had saved after picking up more than ten years of "garbage", and although most of it was given to Seramiras in front of him to make her treasures, the remaining amount should be enough to equip several armies.

In ancient times, these materials alone would have been enough to fight a complete war of annihilation.

"The speed of material consumption is much faster than expected, and it seems that Zheng Shu is putting a lot of pressure on Archer." Semiramis had a serious expression.

Amakusa Shiro Shizhen looked at the scene in the light curtain, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed helplessly: "Let Lancer speed up their movements, and when the people in the enchantment leave, don't care about the size of the impact, let him fire at full power." ”

"Okay."

The strategy that Amakusa Shiro Shizhen thought of was actually very simple, and in summary, it was Tian Ji horse racing.

Since Zheng Shu and they formed an alliance with Illya, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen knew very well that if all the members fought, their side would not have an advantage.

Not to mention that Semiramis on his side has to take into account the treasure and can't fight casually, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen himself can't fight casually because he has to be just in case, and Saber and her lord are not with their own people, in case of rebellion at a critical time, the loss caused will be too great.

What's more, even if Saber and them don't fight back, there is still a certain gap between their own top combat power and the top combat power of the other alliance, and they will still suffer if they really fight.

Therefore, Amakusa Shiro Shizhen used Tian Ji's horse racing strategy to let Arash, who was the second strongest in combat power on his side, go to entangle Zheng Shu, who had the strongest combat power on the opposite side.

Although he will definitely not be able to defeat him, according to Arash's ability, if he is bent on delaying, he will still be able to delay it for a long time.

And take advantage of this time to let the strongest person on his side take the rest of the opponent with the remaining combat power.

In this way, even if Zheng Shu solves Arash later, the combat power of his side can still be in an advantageous position.

"I have a question." Semiramis thought about the next arrangement with some distress, "How will the enemy Saber solve it?" ”

"The other party's Rider and Archer Karna can completely solve it by themselves, and the Berserker also has our Berserker to deal with, but what about the remaining Saber? That little girl's attributes are not bad, if she really participates in the battle of Karna, even with his combat strength, he will not be able to win in a short time. What do you think? Do you want to let the last 'guy' out? It's not stable yet, but it should be fine if you let him attack the target in a frenzy. ”

"Don't worry, I've found my Saber, and he'll help us stop them." Amakusa Shiro Shizhen smiled and nodded.

"Do you know who that Saber is?" Semiramis was a little curious.

"Well, I got the information about the medium used by the other party from the clock tower, and combined with the life and personality of the master, I can probably guess what kind of servant he summoned."

Amakusa Shiro Shizhen leaned on his chin, thinking about the information he had obtained before, and a playful smile appeared on his face: "If it's really like what I thought, then Saber probably doesn't need us to deal with it." ”

(PS: I've finally been busy lately, and I can prepare to add more in the next few days.) )
