Shinji Matou At Your Service

Chapter 1062: bluff

Views:

Brionac, which means Brionac, was translated by the Japanese as "Bombing Five Stars" for some reason.

In Celtic mythology, the god of light, Lugh mac Esoron, is a famous magic spear of the Tuatha de Danann. It is one of the four secret treasures in Celtic mythology and a weapon that symbolizes Lugh's own power.

There are many descriptions of this gun.

Some say that this is a magic spear made of light that can penetrate everything.

Some say that this is a strangely shaped gun, similar to a fisherman's harpoon or a farmer's rake. When the gun is thrown, the tip of the gun will turn into five rays of light, attacking different enemies respectively.

There are also rumors that this is a living magic spear that craves blood at all times and can only be calmed by soaking in a sleeping potion made from poppies.

However, no matter which one it is, they all have one thing in common. This is an extremely powerful magic gun that not only emits the light of death, but also has its own tracking ability, leaving the enemy nowhere to escape. Its power is indisputable.

Now, this magic spear that had killed countless people in the Age of Gods once again showed its sharpness. Just by sweeping it from the edge, it still caused the black rafter forest to collapse.

Because it is light, it comes quickly and goes quickly.

When it comes, it sweeps away everything; when it leaves, there is no trace left.

All that was left was a sunken open space that had been swept away, and a strange-shaped object in the middle of the open space.

It looked like a statue made from discarded materials, or a randomly assembled support. On top was a disc with a bumpy surface, and underneath was a black cylinder that was almost as black as coal.

Lorelaia, who was using magic to maintain her suspension, waved her hand casually, and an invisible blade cut the cylinder open, revealing a boy with his upper body naked inside.

Although his clothes were burned by the light emitted by the magic spear, and even the hair on his body was destroyed, the boy's identity can still be determined from his outline and facial features - Shinji Matou, Lorelei's opponent, and he successfully survived.

Surprisingly, despite being hit by a Noble Phantasm that was above A-rank, his injuries were not serious. Apart from three obvious blood holes on his shoulder, chest, and abdomen, there were no obvious injuries. Moreover, these three blood holes were shrinking and healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his disappeared hair and eyebrows gradually grew back.

"I said I was merciless, and I really was merciless at all."

Hearing that familiar complaining voice, Lorelaia was delighted at first, but soon her expression turned cold.

"I always keep my word."

"Aren't you afraid that I might die accidentally?"

"But you didn't die—is that also because of one of your Noble Phantasms?"

"No, this is the protection given by Elquit. In terms of specifications, she is higher than the God of Light Luger."

In just a few words, the three blood holes pierced by the spear of light had been completely healed. The boy, who had recovered as before, re-wove his coat and waved to the sky with a smile.

"You have many tricks left. Use them all. Today I will convince you."

"Hmm!" Lorelaia's expression suddenly became very ugly.

The gun of the God of Light Luger was a very high-level weapon even in the Age of Gods. If it couldn't defeat Shinji, it would be almost impossible to defeat him. That damned female vampire, even if she wasn't here, she would still be making things difficult for him.

"Don't be scared by him. He is not as relaxed as you think. His recovery ability is not unsolvable."

Just when Lorelaia was wavering and Shinji was full of confidence, a calm voice suddenly interrupted, making the former's bad mood suddenly become clear. Of course, he was also glared at by the latter.

"Weber, you bastard!"

That's right, the person who spoke was Weber, the most powerful teacher in the Clock Tower and the owner of the "Eye of Insight".

Indeed, the way Shinji survived the "Bombardment Five Stars" and recovered quickly was very shocking and devastating, but Waver was not deceived by appearances, but restored the truth hidden beneath the appearances from the clues at the scene.

Although Shinji immediately dropped the "bracket" that wrapped his body after he climbed out, this short period of time was enough for Waver to see many things: the base of the bracket was the rafter of "King of Death Penalty", and the black-gold disc on it was the shield used to deal with the Dead Apostles just now.

If Shinji really wasn't afraid of the "Five Star Bombardment", why did he put the shield on his head? Why did he wrap his body with rafters? And why did he wait for Lorelei to break the rafters before he could climb out

Being a support and holding up a shield means that Shinji's recovery ability is not enough to resist the power of the magic spear. He waited for Lorelaia to attack because he wanted to delay time and recover more. A more radical guess is that Shinji might not have the strength to come out by himself at that time.

Based on Waver's understanding of Shinji, if he still had strength left, he would never just stand there and talk to Lorelaia, but would rush forward to fight back.

The answer was obvious—he was bluffing.

After Waver's reminder, Lorelaia also reacted and said to Shinji with a half-smile: "You want me to be convinced? Okay, you stand still and let me use the magic spear again. As long as you can survive, I will do whatever you say."

"That's not good." Shinji scratched his cheek awkwardly, "You're at a disadvantage."

"It's okay. You've done a lot for me over the years, so I'll take this opportunity to repay you."

"I was paid for doing things for you, and we don't owe each other anything. This really doesn't work."

"Is it true that you are bluffing as Professor Velvet said?"

"Just think of me as bluffing, and you can bluff even further - Master, lend me a gun."

Shinji said this and stretched out his hand to Scathach who was not far away. The latter materialized a weapon but did not hand it over. Instead, he asked.

"Didn't you say my gun doesn't work well?"

"But I don't have a suitable weapon right now. Besides, don't you think your gun has a lot in common with the 'Bombard Five Stars'? That would be fun."

There are indeed many similarities. They are both javelin-type weapons, both have the attribute of guaranteed hit, and both can split. There are even experts who specialize in mythology who say that their original sources are both the weapons of Odin, the main god in Norse mythology, the divine spear Gungnir.

This reason touched Scathach.

"It's really interesting. Since I can't move one of my hands at the moment, I'll lend it to you."

She just pushed it with her hand, and the Deaththorn Spear fell accurately into Shinji's hands. Shinji then took a stance and pointed the tip of the spear at Lorelaia.

"Want to have a javelin fight?"

"As you wish." Loreleija nodded happily, "But before that, your Servant will join the battle."

"You said there are no restrictions on any means."

"Yes, I did, so I plan to learn from you."

PS: In the myth, the big dog's gun actually does not have a guaranteed hit attribute. Fate has made some modifications to the mushroom, probably based on the "Five-Star Bombardment" of the dog father.
