Start a Core Pod

Chapter 778: Before Dawn

 Tohsaka Rin’s character is to do whatever he says, and he really doesn’t have much time to think about this issue. Because the opponent's barrier has basically been completed at the moment, if you don't launch an attack immediately, I'm afraid the opponent will take the lead. In this case, Tohsaka Rin also understood that he actually didn't have many choices.

 “ARCHER.”

Standing on the hillside, Tosaka Rin gritted his teeth and stared at the buildings in the new urban area. At this moment, in the dark night, the entire building was dark, looking like huge tombstones.

 But when he thought about what he had to do next, Tohsaka Rin had a headache.

 Although gas explosions can be used to cover up the past, but...

How much compensation will this cost...

 “Already ready for action, MASTER.”

"very good."

Hearing ARCHER's answer, Tohsaka Rin nodded and looked at Sakura who was standing not far away. The plan is simple. ARCHER will conduct ultra-long-range bombing of the Xindu Building and then destroy it. This should be able to destroy the opponent's barrier to a certain extent, and once the opponent reacts and jumps out, Sakura will order her ASSASSIN to use the Noble Phantasm to completely defeat the enemy.

To be honest, Tohsaka Rin is very curious about what ASSASSIN's Noble Phantasm is, but... now is not the time to talk about this.

"So………"

                                                  ————!

However, just when Tohsaka Rin was about to give the order, something suddenly changed.

The originally dark night turned into red. At the same time, Tohsaka Rin felt a strong pressure suddenly emerge, as if his whole body had completely turned over, his stomach was shaking uncontrollably, and his whole body felt like a high fever. Fever, but it is not from the outside temperature, but as if one's own blood is evaporating...

 No, this is not a metaphor. Even Tohsaka Rin, who is a magician, can feel that his magic power is being squeezed and forcibly extracted from his body. She now felt like she was a fruit in a juice machine, being twisted and crushed to squeeze out the juice.

 “Ugh...is it too late? ARCHER, do it!”

Clenched his teeth, Tohsaka Rin hurriedly gave orders to ARCHER, and the latter silently raised the longbow in his hand, aimed at the Xindu Building, and then shot an arrow.

The spiral arrow, with its blue brilliance, pierced the sky like a meteor and flew towards the direction of the Xindu Building. However, the next moment, a shining red magic circle suddenly appeared outside the building, followed by fire and violent explosions, but it was completely unable to break through the red barrier.

“The other party is draining the magic power of the residents of Fuyuki City!”

  At this moment, Sakura also gritted her teeth and looked at Tohsaka Rin.

“Normal attacks have no effect, sister, use the command spell!”

    …………!”

Hearing what Sakura said, Tohsaka Rin gritted his teeth, looked at the two remaining command spells on the back of his hand, and then raised his right hand.

“In the name of the Command Seal, ARCHER! Completely destroy the Xindu Building!”

With Tosaka Rin's call, another command spell on the back of her hand flashed with bright red light. At the same time, ARCHER also straightened up his chest again and looked forward. He raised the bow and arrow in his left hand and stretched his right hand forward. - Then, a long sword exuding dazzling light emerged from his hand out of thin air. Then ARCHER bent his bow and pulled the string, aimed at the building in the distance, and shot another arrow.

  “——————!”

This attack is completely different from the previous ones. If the arrows fired by ARCHER were like meteors before, then the sword of light bursting out this time is more like a torrent of impact. A beam of light flew forward from the long bow and spread, as if it was almost cutting the world in half from the middle, and hit **** the bright red barrier guarding the Xindu Building.

 Soon, the shining light swallowed up almost everything.

A light like a nuclear bomb exploded into the sky, completely destroying the Xindu Building and the surrounding buildings. The solid reinforced concrete building had no resistance in the face of this force that was like a natural disaster, and it decomposed as easily as a castle made of sand. Shattered, reduced to ashes. This time, the bright red barrier was finally unable to withstand ARCHER's powerful blow mixed with the command spell. After resisting for a moment, it was completely broken and then turned into ashes.

   ……………hur………”

Looking at the scene in front of her, even Tohsaka Rin's eyes widened in surprise. Of course she knew that her ARCHER was very powerful, but she didn't expect him to be so powerful. When the fire disappeared and the smoke dispersed, Tohsaka Rin could clearly see that with the Shinto Building as the center, everything within a few dozen meters of the surrounding area had been destroyed, and not even the slightest trace of man-made objects was left. , only a huge circular crater remained, which looked like it had been hit by a nuclear bomb.

Through Sakura's imaginary number spell, the group of people also traveled directly to the pothole and looked around.

 The scorching heat makes it almost breathless, and at least for now, everything here seems to have been destroyed. There is no remnant of anything around, be it RIDER or anything else...

 “Wait, be careful!”

At this moment, ARCHER seemed to notice something, and with his shouts, the ground began to tremble, and then... everyone was surprised to see a dark, oil-like substance suddenly gush out from the center of the explosion, like a fountain. Soaring straight into the sky.

“Then, is that the true form of the black shadow?”

Looking at the black water spraying out in front of him, Tohsaka Rin trembled all over. At the moment when the black water erupted, the high temperature that was originally shrouded here after the explosion was swept away, and turned into a heat that was almost comparable to An extremely cold place, cold enough to freeze even the soul. Not only that, Tohsaka Rin could also feel the terrifying malice in this strange black water. Just looking at it would make people feel burning pain in their heads, as if they were cursed.

 In other words, its existence itself is a curse.

                                                                                          display

"oh………"

However, something even more surprising was yet to come. As the black water flowed and spread, four figures slowly appeared in it. Three of them, Rin Tosaka knew, were SABER, LANCER and BERSERKER.

However, the three people at this moment have completely lost their original posture. Their bodies are dark, their eyes are red, and their whole bodies are filled with an aura like evil spirits. Tohsaka Rin did not recognize the remaining woman wrapped in a cloak, but it was certain that she was also a heroic spirit.

 But now, they are more like evil spirits————!

 “In the name of the Command Seal!”

At this moment, Sakura's voice suddenly sounded, breaking Tohsaka Rin's thoughts. She turned around and saw Sakura raising her right hand high.

 “ASSASSIN, the Noble Phantasm of Liberation! The spiritual base spreads!”

 “Got it, MASTER!”

Upon hearing Sakura's order, the girl next to her jumped up. Wings made of light appeared behind her. The girl was seen holding a gun and flying into the air. The next moment, her figure suddenly became illusory. , in just a moment, Tohsaka Rin saw seven afterimages separated from the girl's body and transformed into the same posture as her. "How is it possible? Are there any such servants?"

Looking at the scene in front of her, Tohsaka Rin was stunned. As a Master, of course she could clearly see the eight girls floating in the air in front of her. Although their hairstyles and looks were slightly different, they all had no less than The attribute strength of ASSASSIN, that is to say... at this moment, is Sakura summoning seven beings with heroic spirit strength to fight together at the same time? !

 “Fire!”

Following the order given by the leading girl, eight girls raised their guns together, aimed at the four servants who appeared in the black mud, and pulled the triggers.

 “Bang bang bang bang!!”

It was a violent gunshot sound like thunder. Even if Tohsaka Rin subconsciously covered his ears, he could hear it. Countless bullets turned into a hail of bullets, completely covering the four servants.

 But this is obviously not enough.

                                                  ————!

The first one to go crazy was naturally BERSERKER. It roared and jumped up. Holding a giant ax and not caring about the bullets hitting itself, it flew towards the girls in the air. At the same time, SABER and LANCER also held weapons. One left and one right cooperated with BERSERKER to launch an attack on the girls.

 “Full isotope, completely synchronized!”

Facing the enemies rushing towards them, the girls quickly formed a circle and increased their height again. At the same time, a beam of light emerged from them and connected with each other to form a circle.

 “Final attack. Sky Spear Nimbus!”

The shining spear of brilliance emerged from the center of the halo, and was blasted downwards. It immediately knocked the four followers to the ground again, and exploded again, swallowing the followers together with the black mud.

As early as when Sakura activated her Noble Phantasm, Rin Tosaka was led backwards by ARCHER. Even so, she almost felt the explosion and impact of this powerful spear of glory head-on, which was almost as good as the one used by ARCHER just now. The power of the Noble Phantasm is even greater!

 “Is this ASSASSIN?”

Tohsaka Rin took a breath and looked forward with a pale face.

 “Where can I find such an ASSASSIN?”

 Just kidding, you can summon eight of them at once. If you were to deal with one Heroic Spirit, it would be like a gang fight...

If it were an ordinary servant, I am afraid that it would have been destroyed in this wave of attacks, but...

 “Boom!”

Black water spurted out again, tearing away the shining light of the Glory Spear, and then, four servants, almost unscathed, were seen standing up from the black mud again.

 “Are you kidding? These guys can’t be beaten to death?”

 Seeing this, Tohsaka Rin and Sakura's expressions suddenly changed.

"This is how to do?"

Tohsaka Rin and Sakura looked at each other, their brows furrowed.

 Obviously, now it seems that this is more difficult.

 “Do you want to retreat?”

"No, if we retreat and let the crazy servants rush into the city, it will only cause more damage!"

 Sakura shook her head and raised her hands.

 “We have to stop them here!”

Even though Sakura said this, Tohsaka Rin also knew that this was not easy. The opponent seemed to be immortal in the black mud. Even if Sakura's followers used the Noble Phantasm, they could not kill him completely. Not to mention that her servant is ASSASSIN, and there are warriors like SABER, LANCER and BERSERKER on the opposite side. How can she fight this?

    ————woo————!”

Once again, BERSERKER raised the stone ax and turned into a hurricane and rushed towards Tohsaka Rin and Sakura. Seeing this scene, Tohsaka Rin also gritted his teeth.

“ARCHER, prepare…”

 However, before Tohsaka Rin finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.

 “Boom!”

 A war hammer fell from the sky and hit BERSERKER's head directly, breaking it into two pieces. Then black flames erupted from it, swallowing up BERSERKER in an instant.

"What's this?"

Seeing this scene, Rin Tosaka was stunned, while Sakura was overjoyed.

"Big brother?!"

Following Xiaoying's shout, the next moment, Duanmuhuai fell heavily to the ground. He picked up the warhammer, glanced at Xiaoying, and nodded with a smile.

 “Long time no see, Sakura.”

 “Yes, long time no see, big brother...”

Looking at Duanmuhuai in front of her, Xiaoying was so excited that her eyes almost turned red. For Duanmuhuai, he and Xiaoying were only separated for a few days, but for Xiaoying, this was already the reunion after eight years. .

 “I know you have a lot to say.”

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai raised his war hammer.

“But now, let’s kill these guys first!”
