Shinji is in trouble.
Big trouble.
Along the way, more than 30 monsters have fallen under his sickle blade. No monster can resist the sharp edge of the snake hunting sickle. He originally thought that tonight's work would repeat this process until this area was cleaned up.
I didn't expect that there was a leader hidden among this group of soldiers.
A group of black snakes, a strange shape with countless snakes coiled together, their bodies covered with suction cups the size of rain gills, five or six meters long, the tip was almost as thick as Shinji's calf, and the base was even more sturdy than Shinji's body.
That's right, this is a tentacle, Caster's favorite summon.
The base of the tentacle was hidden under the dirty water, and the tip was pulling towards Shinji with a flexibility that was totally inconsistent with its size.
Fortunately, Shinji reacted quickly and used magic to strengthen his feet in time, escaping from the tentacles' attack range in time.
Looking at the half wall collapsed by the tentacles, Shinji felt a chill on his back.
"This strength is at least C, most likely B. The sheer power is even better than the master's whip kick. If he gets hit by it, he's doomed."
Before he could wipe the cold sweat from his face, the tentacles began to strike for the second time.
Shinji didn't dare to resist and continued to retreat, complaining.
"Hey, hey, I'm not a magical girl. I'm not your type. Stop staring at me."
However, this chaotic creature, whose history is far older than that of humans, could not understand what Shinji said at all. It only knew to follow its instincts and hunt the prey in front of it.
As a tentacle, it has only two ways of attacking: whipping and entanglement.
But compared to Shinji's overwhelming power, it makes these two simple attack methods full of shocking pressure. The so-called fighting skills can only work when the gap between the two sides is not big. If the power gap is too big, no matter how many skills there are, it will be useless.
The Snake Hunting Scythe is a melee weapon. While cutting the tentacles, you will also be hurt by the huge force of the tentacles.
Slingshots and rune bullets are not lethal enough, and the damage caused will be recovered quickly.
Other means of attack require a certain amount of time to prepare, and all Shinji can do is dodge, dodge, and dodge.
However, the cramped environment of the underground sewers compared to the ground severely restricted Shinji's space for movement. Shinji ran, jumped, rolled, climbed, and even used his unskilled skills in using the walls to gain leverage, but he still could not escape the tentacles.
what to do
What should I do
Shinji was thinking quickly in his mind, and suddenly, his vision went dark.
Oh no, it’s a dead end!
Behind him, a thick tentacle lashed at Shinji's back like a long whip.
...
Shinji was not the only one entangled by the tentacles. Saber, who was fifty kilometers away from Shinji, was also entangled by tentacle, not just one, but five.
One tied the left hand, one tied the right hand, one was wrapped around the left leg, one was wrapped around the waist, and the last one was wrapped around Saber's neck. A sticky, ominous liquid smeared all over Saber's face.
Taking into account Saber's combat capability, the fact that she usually wears a suit, changes into armor in a second during battle, and her ageless attribute of always being a boy (girl), it completely fits the setting of magical girls in anime, so it is not difficult to understand why she becomes like this.
Okay, the above is pure nonsense. The reason why Saber fell into such a bad situation is because Caster was fully prepared.
Although Caster did not participate in last night's drama "Six Servants Appeared Together", he watched it remotely in his workshop through observation magic similar to that of Irisviel.
Because of this, he found the "Saint" he was looking for.
It was for this reason that he was able to intercept the sports car carrying the "Saint" on the national highway.
It is also because of this that he mastered the various attributes and fighting methods of the "Saint".
On the contrary, Saber does not know enough about Caster. She only knows his real name and that he is good at summoning magic.
One side came prepared, while the other side responded hastily. The result was predictable - the rhythm of the battle was always controlled by Caster.
If someone had asked Saber before the Holy Grail War which class of opponent she was most confident of defeating in a head-on confrontation, her answer would have been Caster.
Because Saber has the highest magic resistance among the seven classes, with the bonus of the class, the magic resistance of the young knight king, whose real name is Altria, has reached the insane level A.
This means that she can ignore great magic and ritual spells, and even the highest-level magicians of the contemporary era cannot directly harm her with magic. For Caster, who uses magic as his main weapon, this is undoubtedly a world of difference.
But the Caster in front of him is different. He is a magician who is good at summoning demons.
Anti-magic is a passive skill, and it only works when someone uses magic against her. If the magic is not aimed at Saber, anti-magic will not work.
Therefore, Saber cannot stop Caster from summoning monsters from another world. Once a monster is summoned, it will materialize, thus possessing a threat different from magic. The monster's teeth and claws have the same attack power as swords, and Saber can only rely on her sword and body to deal with these monsters.
If her body was intact, Saber, who was known as the strongest in hand-to-hand combat, would naturally not care about mere monsters. But now that Saber was injured, she seemed to be unable to fight against the endless army of monsters.
Facing the monster's tentacles that kept attacking, Saber did not retreat at all and continued to attack fiercely.
Every time Saber swung the invisible sword in her hand, monsters in the air were cut in half. No matter whether they were tentacles or demons, they could not withstand Saber's sword.
However, those monsters attacked like waves, one after another, not giving Saber a chance to breathe. Slowly, Saber fell into the dilemma of passive defense.
Saber killed quickly, but Caster also summoned monsters quickly. When a monster fell, a new one was born. It was endless and limitless. These monsters surrounded Saber layer by layer.
Saber's invisible sword and the monsters that were constantly summoned were in a stalemate.
The initiative of the battle fell into Caster's hands. He did not seem to be in a hurry to win. He just mobilized the troops needed to deal with Saber step by step.
Caster is using monsters to consume Saber's physical strength. When Saber is exhausted and can't keep up with the rhythm of the monsters' attacks, he can get the "Saint" he has always dreamed of.
Saber, who has been fighting all her life and possesses a bug skill called "intuition", saw through Caster's tactics very early on.
At first, she planned to break through in one go by relying on her swordsmanship and momentum.
By the time she realized that Caster's summoning speed was no less than her own killing speed, she had already been surrounded by monsters, unable to advance or retreat. She could only switch from offense to defense and fight a protracted war with Caster to see who would give up first.
When Saber felt the wound on her left hand aching and she was powerless, she finally understood the principle of Caster's Noble Phantasm "Rayan Castle Textbook" - it was an independent summoning Noble Phantasm that did not consume Caster's magic power, and she could not outlast Caster at all.
This was the worst possible situation, but Saber did not give up, her emerald eyes remained firm.
The Knight King of Britain would rather die in battle than surrender.
