When Scathach left, the battlefield had turned into a muddy swamp.
No matter how hard they tried to kill them, there would always be endless swarms of alien monsters. The piles of flesh and blood mixed with the splattering organs and body fluids were kicked and stirred by two pairs of feet, forming a chaos more terrifying than hell.
The smell of monster organs, which is more pungent than the stench of decay, is as thick as fog. This is a miasma filled with extremely poisonous gas. If a living human inhales it, his lungs will corrode and he will die.
Up to now, the number of enemies killed by Saber and Lancer has exceeded 500, but there is still no sign of victory. The number of monsters surrounding the two seems endless, and whenever there is a hole in the encirclement, new monsters will fill it.
"This number is really surprising."
Although Lancer did not show any signs of fatigue, his voice was already somewhat bitter.
"It's the magic book, Lancer. As long as his Noble Phantasm is still there, the situation of the battle will not change."
"I see, that's what's going on." After hearing Saber's whisper, Lancer sighed in frustration, "But if I want to knock the book out of that guy's hand, I still have to break through this wall of trash."
The group of monsters slowly approached, waving their tentacles mockingly.
Those alien creatures felt neither fear of death nor pain. They seemed to be seeking death and attacked the two of them frantically.
Caster still continued the protracted battle. His monster army was originally prepared for two servants, one was Saber, and the other was Assassin who was staring at him. Although Assassin did not appear now, the same could be used on Lancer.
No, Lancer, whose dual guns are both anti-personnel Noble Phantasms, is easier to deal with than Assassin, who has an anti-military Noble Phantasm.
"Hey, Lancer, do you want to take a gamble now?"
"Although it seems like you are scared, it is not a good idea to continue playing with these small fry. All right, I will listen to you, Saber."
After Lancer agreed without hesitation, Saber looked at the terrifying flesh wall that extended all the way to Casler, carefully estimating its thickness and density.
Her "intuition" told her that her idea was feasible, a fatal blow, and worth releasing.
"I will open a path, but I only have one chance. Lancer, can you walk on the wind?"
"Hehe, I see. Leave it to me."
Even though it was only once, they were rivals who had fought with their lives at stake. Both of them had memorized all the secret techniques that they had used at that time. Lancer now understood the techniques and plans that Saber was going to use without any further explanation.
"Have you said your final prayers?"
Caster laughed at the two servants calmly. It was not him who was fighting against the opponent, but his Noble Phantasm Rasenjoku Textbook.
He was like a spectator in the audience, only gracefully and calmly, and at most he would make a few taunts to irritate the nerves of his enemies.
"It's terrifying! It's hopeless! There is a limit to how many people can be overthrown by force alone. Hehehe, do you feel humiliated? You are about to be crushed and suffocated by these evil spirits. For a hero, there is nothing more humiliating than this!"
Even though she was being mocked cheerfully by her opponent, Saber remained neither humble nor overbearing, and simply swung the sword in her right hand with a resolute and calm expression.
His unwavering gaze is focused only on the victory that must be achieved!
"That beautiful face is twisted with grief, Joan of Arc!"
"Giiiiiiii!"
Caster's shouting mixed with the monsters' roars, urging them to keep coming until they overwhelmed their opponents.
The time is now!
The Knight King shouted the True Name of the Unleashed Noble Phantasm.
"Hammer of the Wind King!"
In the middle of the swirling atmosphere, a brilliant golden light shone.
The super-high air pressure cluster that protected the holy sword was freed from the constraints of the invisible barrier and burst out like a ferocious dragon's roar.
A secret sword that kills with one strike, a flexible use of the Noble Phantasm Wind King Barrier. In the battle against Lancer last night, this super strong wind pressure was released to speed up the charge, and if it is released towards the enemy, it will become a storm hammer that sweeps away thousands of troops.
Because they were too concentrated together, the monsters suffered an extremely powerful attack.
The super-high-pressure wind condensed the monsters like solids, crushing them. The meat pieces mixed with the sand and wood chips affected by the wind pressure, stirring them, as if an invisible giant's hand swept across the earth to open a straight path. At the moment when the air pressure blew away, a hole was completely pierced through the monsters' encirclement.
In contrast, the destructive power of the Wind King's Hammer was offset by the multiple layers of monster defenses, and by the time it reached Caster, it had been reduced to a strong wind strong enough to blow away the corners of his robes. The hole that was punched through was the passage.
However, depending on the density of the summoned monsters, this is a short gap that can be immediately filled.
"What?"
Despite this, Caster still let out a surprised sound, because it was not just the wind that pierced through the encirclement.
When an object moves at super-high speed in the atmosphere, it tears apart the air in front of it, leaving a vacuum behind it. This vacuum then draws in the surrounding atmosphere and becomes an air current that chases the object that passed ahead.
The air pressure that Saber released from the Wind King's barrier caused the same phenomenon. While defeating the army of monsters, a vacuum was created behind the gust of wind.
Lancer was waiting for this opportunity. He was caught in the headwind without hesitation, just like a super racer who used the slipstream to accelerate in a car race.
It is a stunt that requires not only superhuman skills, but also coordination with one's companions.
Lancer leaped through the passage filled with blood and flesh, as fast as a swallow folding its wings to chase the wind. When his toes touched the ground again, the distance between him and Caster was less than ten steps, and there was no barrier in between.
"Wake up, Caster!"
Yes, he did it. He only saw Saber use the Wind Sword once, but he completed this wonderful combination.
The monsters turned around because of their master's crisis, and stretched out their tentacles to attack Lancer's back.
Lancer didn't look back. The pistol in his left hand spun behind him like a windmill to cut down the pursuing minions, and the long spear in his right hand stabbed Caster with all his strength.
"Please cut it for me, Gae&midd (Devil-breaking Red Rose)!"
At the critical moment, Caster's experience from hundreds of battles in the first half of his life allowed him to turn sideways in time to avoid the direct attack of the magic spear. The tip of the Red Rose Spear only touched the cover of the Luoyan City textbook, leaving an inconspicuous scratch.
But, that's enough.
It doesn't need to cause obvious wounds, Lancer's Red Rose will take effect as long as it touches. This red magic spear once cut through Saber's Wind King barrier, ignored Saber's magic armor, and is the natural enemy of all things woven with magic. (The biggest reliance for being able to join the Four Heavenly Kings, piercing the root with one spear.)
The spells included in the Luoyan City textbook have become ineffective. The spells for large-scale continuous summoning, driving monsters, maintaining the monster's presence, etc. have all become ineffective.
"BOOM!"
The sound of waves hitting rocks echoed throughout the forest.
The endless alien monsters on the ground liquefied in an instant. Without the supply of magic power, the monsters born from the sea of blood lost their possession and returned to their original form.
Caster took a big step back, and the magic book immediately activated its skill as a magic furnace, quickly regenerating the damaged cover.
The moment the magic-breaking Red Rose Blade touches it, the magic power will be cut off, and the cutting of magic power will not damage the treasure itself. However, magic that has been dispelled once must be rewoven, which takes time, and Saber and Lancer cannot give him that time.
"You bastard, you bastard, you bastard, you bastard, you bastard!"
The difference between heaven and hell made Caster's expression twisted and he cursed loudly.
Lancer turned a deaf ear to it and brushed it off with a winner's smile.
"Do you understand? If Saber's left hand hadn't been injured, you would have ended up like this."
"Are you ready to die, you evil demon?"
The Knight King uttered an angry voice quietly, raised the golden sword in his right hand, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Caster.
