In the moonlight, Chiron held a longbow and continued to draw the bow and arrow.
The arrow hit almost the expected position, but the target's behavior was different from what was expected.
"Did it work?"
In response to Master Colles' question, Chiron shook his head.
"No, unfortunately, only Saber was hit by an arrow, and the other attacks were dodged."
"Even the lion Jiejieli—?" Coles was surprised. Coles saw clearly how good Chiron's archery skills were during the two days of special training.
In Colles' mind, the arrows shot by Chiron have become synonymous with a number of modern weapons.
Normal shooting equals bullets.
A powerful shot from a full bow is equivalent to a mortar.
Multiple arrows in one bow are equivalent to shotgun shells.
What’s even more terrifying is that almost all of these arrows come with a guidance system.
Although his sister might be unhappy to say this, Colles was sure that even if his sister wore an enhanced magic costume, she would not be able to block Chiron's arrow, not to mention the Lion Jiejieli who lacked defensive costumes.
How did this guy dodge it? — Because the bell tower where they were located was too far away from the battlefield, Colles could not see what was happening.
"Yes, the arrow shot at him was blocked by Saber's sword the first time, and by Black Lancer the second time."
"Black Lancer?" Colles couldn't understand. "Didn't you say that they were fighting just now? Why are they fighting now?"
"I don't know." Chiron shook his head, "But anything that happens on the battlefield is not surprising."
"That's right. Even if they join forces to kill us, it's not impossible."
Shinji's voice sounded - only the voice, no one was seen. In order to make full use of the assassin's concealment ability, he was in a spirit state after leaving Mirenia City, so Altria saw only three people, and the last one was Fiore who had not spoken the whole time.
Shinji was not surprised at all by what was happening in the distance. Although he didn't know how the two met, he had imagined many times what would happen after they met.
A fight was inevitable, and it was almost certain that it was Mordred who started it. That guy's obsession with Altria was not ordinary. On the contrary, Altria had no obsession with Mordred, and she didn't hate him, nor did she love him.
In terms of strength, Mordred is no match for Altria. After the meeting with Jeanne last night, Shinji specifically asked Altria: How did you tie with Phineas, who restrained you? The answer was unexpected, but reasonable.
Shinji was very clear that Altria was still alive, but his preconceived impression made him subconsciously ignore the time difference of fifteen hundred years.
In order to verify Artoria's strength, Shinji even went down to fight her twice. The result was that neither Vlad III, Karna, nor Achilles could necessarily defeat Artoria now.
This is also one of the reasons why Shinji allowed Altria to go deep into Sighisoara. With such strength, he can always run away even if he can't defeat her.
As for Mordred - haha, the gap between the two is definitely like a father beating his son, nothing to say, a complete defeat.
After that, given Altria's character, she most likely won't kill Mordred. Then he can take this opportunity to win over Mordred and the Lion. Shinji has also thought of a way to win them over. With Altria around, there will be no difficulty.
Unexpectedly, before the two finished fighting, they were found by Chiron using the "clairvoyance" unique to archers. Not caring about fighting alone, Corles directly proposed a sneak attack, and Chiron had no objection. He seized the opportunity and used a series of combined skills, showing his archery skills in the divine realm.
Shinji didn't comment on this. If it were anyone else, they might have been seriously injured by Chiron or died from Chiron's arrows. But this father and son (mother and daughter) were different. Both of them had the special skill of "intuition". To be honest, it was difficult to sneak attack them - not to mention that Shinji was secretly tipping them off.
As a result, the sneak attack was resolved. Although he was a little surprised by Altria's act of saving the lion, it was not surprising to see Altria act like this, considering her noble character and the fact that this was a duel between two knights.
And joining forces to kill us - well, not long after Shinji finished speaking, the two of them really joined forces to kill us.
"Assassin, you're such a jinx!" Colles frowned and complained, and even Fiore turned her head and glared at Shinji.
"Don't look at me like that. If you have time to scold me, you might as well think about how to solve the problem at hand." The spirit Shinji crossed his arms across his chest, not looking anxious at all. "At this distance, they will be here in a few minutes. What do you say, retreat or fight?"
"Archer, what do you think?" Colles asked.
"Fight. Black Lancer and Red Saber have already fought a fierce battle, and Red Saber was injured. It would be a pity to retreat like this." Chiron replied while continuing to suppress the fire.
"Then let's fight." Although Fiore has been in a bad state since yesterday, she still showed the courage of the next clan leader at the critical moment, "Arcer is in your charge, Assassin will deal with the injured Saber, and I will deal with her Master, Lion Jiejieli! Corles, you will be on guard against Lancer's Master who may be lurking in the dark."
This arrangement can be said to be making the best use of everyone, and everyone's strengths are brought into play just right. Soldiers versus soldiers, generals versus generals, the strongest versus the strongest, naturally no one would have any objection to this.
"learn."
Chiron used a bow and two arrows to attack Mordred and Altria at the same time, marking the beginning of a new battle.
"Leave it to me." Colles pressed his bracelet, and beast spirits in the shape of wolves and leopards appeared.
"Understood."
At this time, Shinji was already next to Fiore. The close contact made Fiore a little flustered, and she instinctively wanted to dodge. Just before she moved her body, she heard Shinji's next words.
"Master, don't force yourself, and don't put too much pressure on yourself—you must protect yourself."
He is worried about me, he cares about me.
In an instant, all the panic, shyness, and other chaotic emotions in Fiore's heart disappeared.
She felt that her previous behavior was ridiculous, really ridiculous. It was obviously just a small embarrassment, but she magnified it infinitely and even affected the relationship between her and her servants.
Like a fool, really.
Fortunately, there is still time.
Fiore reached out and gently pressed her chest, taking a deep breath: "Well, I will protect myself, just let go and fight."
After saying that, she "stood up".
PS: Whether in the original novel or the animation, Chiron's performance in this section is seriously inconsistent with the setting. Look at how he was multitasking before. On the one hand, he was shooting arrows at Tamiao from a distance, and at the same time, he was guiding Ken Niang to find Tamiao. On the other hand, he also read Heel's actions and shot Heel many times, forcing Heel to retreat. In the night battle in Sighisoara, he attacked secretly and sniped people from a distance, but he only shot one arrow? It's not that he can't shoot more arrows. What about the continuous arrows you used against Achilles? Xiao Mo, who has heavy armor and intuition, is not easy to kill, and Jack, who has no armor and is fragile, will definitely die, so it's a magical eastward exit.
PS2: Colles's Beast Spirit looks cool, but it is actually very weak. He is not suitable for this type of magic. He is suitable for lightning magic - Baghdad Battery, well, it can also be called Maiden's Chastity, Thunder Tree of Crucifixion. I'm not kidding. Let me repeat, this is not a joke, it's true.
