The speed of this shot was so fast that it was beyond the limit of Shinji's vision and he could not catch it at all. The only thing that was certain was that if he was stabbed by this shot, even if it was not a vital part, his fate would not be much better than Siegfried's.
Fortunately, Shinji had seen this kind of ultra-high-speed attack in the previous battle with Karna, and had also summed up some ways to deal with it.
Method 1: predict in advance and dodge 90 degrees.
The faster the speed, the harder it is to control yourself. If you can determine the trajectory in advance, you can dodge even if you can't catch it. A 90-degree route that is perpendicular to the enemy's trajectory is the least likely to be pursued. It can also buy the most time for reorganization or counterattack.
The moment Red Rider held the gun with both hands, Shinji locked onto his feet firmly. Which foot he stepped out determined the direction of Shinji's dodge.
Rider took a step with his right foot, and Shinji dodged in the opposite direction, narrowly avoiding the former's path.
After rushing forward for more than ten meters, Rider stopped, with a hint of surprise in his voice.
"Oh? Your strength isn't that great, but your reaction is pretty quick. You actually dodged the direct attack. But my attack isn't that simple."
Just as Red Rider said, although Shinji dodged the direct attack, he could not avoid the airflow caused by the ultra-high-speed attack. Under Red Rider's deliberate traction, the airflow around the tip of the gun exploded like a shrapnel, blowing Shinji to pieces.
Wiping away the blood that blinded his eyes, he sighed in a voice that only he could hear:
"As expected of a top Servant with the title of the fastest human. Even Karna can't match him in terms of high-speed combat."
The Red Rider on the opposite side once again raised his gun and made a thrusting gesture. His sharp eyes passed through Shinji's heart and then turned to his head: "Hey~ This expression is much better than Saber's boring one, but a smile alone is not enough on the battlefield. Strength is also needed. I can fire the next shot even faster. I hope you can dodge it."
"Can it be faster? Are you going to break the sound barrier?" Shinji's mouth twitched. He had no doubt about Red Rider's declaration. With his pride, he would not lie about such a thing.
As expected, none of the top servants are easy to mess with.
What's more troublesome is that with Chiron's raid on the battlefield, the Greek treasure cannot be used at all, as it will be recognized as soon as it is used.
There is no other choice but to use that one.
The moment he made the decision, Shinji lowered his center of gravity and pressed his hands on the ground.
At the same time, the rider leaned forward and put the power of his feet into shaking the surrounding ground to create dense cracks.
The next second, the rider disappeared from the spot, the air was torn apart, and two sharp explosions were heard.
Two sounds
Yes, just two sounds.
The first sound is the sound of a high-speed advance.
The other sound was thunder! The thunder of Indra's thunder!
The golden divine thunder penetrated horizontally, like a golden snake blocking the two people.
The accelerating rider didn't expect the opponent to have this trick up his sleeve. He ran straight into the lightning and was knocked over and over.
It means continuous tumbling, there is no wrong adjective used.
Rider was physically strong, and a bolt of lightning could not possibly kill him. At best, it would leave him with some burns and cause some paralysis.
The deadly thing is this paralysis. Red Rider is running at high speed. Anyone with a little common sense knows that intense exercise puts a lot of demands on the body. Even a stitch in the side or a cramp can lead to a very bad outcome, not to mention paralysis.
This is Shinji’s second method of dealing with super-high-speed attacks—paralyzing them.
Anyone who is not a man like Karna who relies on "magic release" to advance, or who relies on his body to play speed, will be defeated when encountering this move - except for guys like the Son of Thunder who have high lightning resistance.
Aren't you a fast runner? Aren't you a sprinter? I don't believe you can run if your body doesn't obey you. Do you have the ability to be faster than lightning? Do you have the ability to ignore inertia? Do you really think that the laws of physics don't exist? Do you really think you can overturn Isaac Newton's coffin
Unfortunately, no matter how fast the Red Rider runs, it can't be faster than lightning. Although it is impossible to capture the rider's movements, it is still possible to intercept them with lightning in advance according to their trajectory. And the rider who is focused on high-speed rushing needs a certain distance to slow down or change direction after the speed is increased.
Thus, the rider who was fully confident in trying to kill Shinji met with tragedy. His feet, which were running at high speed, suddenly lost control and caused him to lose balance and roll on the ground.
Of course, even if it was a rolling gourd, Rider was not easy to bully. After falling, this guy curled up into a ball and used inertia to roll forward. His indomitable and brave momentum was comparable to a charging chariot, giving Shinji a sense of time and space confusion.
"Why does it look so familiar? Isn't this the 'Human Bomb Tank'? Where did you learn the Akimichi family's unique skills? This is the set of Fate, not the set of Naruto."
Shinji speechlessly continued to squander his magic power, pulling out two bolts of lightning to whip the thin version of the "Human Bomb Tank".
Of course, unless the Golden Pestle is used to release lightning with all its strength, the damage to the rider will be limited. Even so, Shinji is unwilling to let go of the opportunity to pursue him - in terms of hard power, the gap between the two sides is too big, and if he doesn't want to be defeated, he can't let down his guard.
After the second lightning, Red Rider finally stopped rolling and bounced up from the ground. He glanced at the ground that was shattered by Indra's Thunder when Shinji appeared, and there were still undisguised magical fluctuations emanating from it.
"So that lightning treasure can be controlled from a distance... But it's not enough to stop me."
Red Rider started running again, empty-handed. His gun had been thrown away during the tumble, and he had no intention of taking it back. He was confident in his fists.
Shinji did not dare to be careless. His eyes, which were enhanced with magic, did not dare to leave the rider's figure for a moment. Even if he could not catch up, he had to judge the latter's movement trajectory based on the image left on his retina.
Here it is!
Golden lightning drilled out of the ground and cut across the path of Red Rider.
To Shinji's surprise, the rider did not crash into the minefield as Shinji had expected, but made a sharp turn close to the thunder and successfully avoided the obstruction of thunder and lightning.
Shinji frowned, and pulled out the second and third thunderbolts according to the corrected trajectory, but they were still avoided by the rider.
The warrior galloping through the forest laughed loudly: "My steps will not be stopped by obstacles. If you can stop me, try to stop me."
As he was speaking, the fourth and fifth thunderbolts roared out, and the rider's dodging posture became more and more relaxed.
"Let me tell you one more thing. I can run like this all night long. How long can your lightning weapon last?"
"Don't worry, I can definitely hold out longer than you can."
Shinji continued to unleash thunder, and Red Rider continued to dodge.
"I see. Although I really want to see if you're telling the truth, a war of attrition like this isn't my style. Let me just jump over your lightning!"
