I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Illusion Collapse is a skill that destroys a Noble Phantasm with huge magical power, making the Noble Phantasm itself a container of huge magic power and detonating the magic power and faith contained in it as explosives, inflicting heavy damage to the opponent.

Because it costs the damage of the Noble Phantasm, it can only be used once, and its destructive power is several times or even dozens of times that of True Name Liberation. It is the strongest blow in the true sense.

This is Shenji's trump card, and it is also his desperate madness in despair. At this point, he had put life and death aside and just wanted to drag the white-haired bastard in front of him on the road.

I don't know whether it was because his A-level luck played a role, or because he didn't care about life and death, but the God of Death didn't want to take him in. Shinji, who was at the core of the explosion, was not fatally injured and successfully survived the destruction.

The dancing firelight melted into the darkness of the night, and the whole place was silent. Only the sound of the explosion reached the ears.

The assassin who narrowly escaped death could not care less about feeling lucky. His eyes moved back and forth through the increasingly intense sea of ​​fire, as if he was looking for something.

However, before he could find it, a voice sounded in his ears, like a lingering nightmare.

"What are you looking for? Are you looking for me?"

"Crack." There was a sound of a stiff neck twisting, and a figure in black clothes and white hair appeared in the field of vision.

Although there were more traces of smoke and fire, the young man was still smiling.

"you you--"

"What am I? I admit that you used the 'Fantasy Collapse' just now very beautifully and the timing was good, but it's a pity that you are still a little short of killing me - I want to know how I escaped. ?"

At other times, Shen'er would still have the energy to guess, but now, after his death-defying counterattack was broken by the enemy, he had lost all hope and was too lazy to think about anything.

Seeing that Shinji didn't answer, Shirou felt a little disappointed and revealed the answer himself.

"It's still 'Shuchi'. The ultimate form of 'Shutchi' is the same as Astolfo's Hippogriff, which can achieve 'dimension jump'. Having said that, the attributes of this body are still a bit inferior. If it doesn't need to be strengthened with a command spell, it will The burden on my body is still too heavy, and the distance I can jump is not ideal.”

Looking carefully, Shirou's eighteen strokes of the command curse carved on his collarbone faded again.

"If you don't use the B+ level 'Indra's Thunder' but instead use the Holy Spear of the Black Lancer, I won't be able to escape even if I activate the dimension jump. There will be only a dead end. Of course - everyone present including The Great Holy Grail will also die together."

"Master——"

Perhaps because he couldn't stand Shirou's endless nagging, or maybe he was dissatisfied with Shirou explaining how to die together with the enemy, Semiramis finally reminded him.

"Ah, I'm sorry, the same old habit happened again - but it doesn't matter. The same moves will not work against the Saints, no, against us. Even if they really want to destroy the Holy Spear, you can use the operation space. Just transfer it, and, and—"

"Master, please stop this!"

Semiramis was really angry. The illusion collapse just now had destroyed the protective magic applied to the outside of the Great Holy Grail. If he didn't block it again, everything would be over.

"Wow~"

Shirou shivered involuntarily as he was struck by the low air pressure from behind.

"I was wrong. It's okay if I don't say it. Ten seconds have passed by now. Although I'm a little regretful, I can only say goodbye to you. If you want to hate it, just hate your own powerlessness."

The sword was raised slightly and aimed at Shen Er's heart, which is also his spiritual core.

"Let's start with you first. For the sake of being a fellow time traveler, I will let you go without any pain."

Just when the sword was about to fall, a bolt of red lightning broke in.

In response to this unexpected ambush, Shirou paused for a moment as he focused his attention on Shinji.

"That one" rushed in like a gust of wind. While releasing the red thunder, he swung the sword in his hand and knocked Shirou away in one fell swoop.

"Oh, oh, you are really merciless——"

After encountering a sneak attack, Shirou was not angry and just looked at the intruder.

The helmet he was wearing when we first met has long since been taken off. Gorgeous blond hair, wild eyes, and a fearless smile.

"——The rebellious knight Mordred, indeed looks very similar to your father, er, mother, in short, King Arthur."

"Hmph! Stop shouting my name randomly here!"

While speaking, Red Saber Mordred swung his sword and chased Shirou fiercely.

Seeing this, Semiramis frowned and said coldly.

"Saber! Do you want to betray!?"

"Are you a fool! You are the one who betrayed me! When you tried to deceive my Master with your conspiracy, you were undoubtedly my enemy. Moreover, you even shamelessly wanted to kill me. Father, listen carefully——"

Accompanied by this domineering declaration, the slash that traced an arc trajectory flashed past the chapel. This blow, as if to draw a dividing line, completely separated Shirou's camp from the others.

"——I am the only one qualified to kill my father!"

The already severely damaged floor was destroyed again, and the surrounding area was suddenly filled with countless wood chips and gravel fragments.

The next second, something seemed to be thrown from the distance of the chapel.

Along with the sound of some metal object hitting the ground, a large amount of white smoke filled the field of vision.

It's a smoke bomb!

"Damn it, it's so troublesome...!" Semiramis complained while weaving magic to disperse the smoke.

"It's time, saber!"

"Oh, everyone, retreat now!"

After hearing the Master's order, Mordred swung one last slash, turned around, grabbed Arturia and Jeanne and rushed out like rabbits.

The two of them were about to say something when they saw Chiron suddenly jump up from the ground and sweep forward to pick up Shinji, and at the same time, magic power roared out like a mountain breeze.

The servants who were touched by this magic power suddenly had their minds clear, regained some strength, and struggled to run outside.

Shinji can use the Collapse of Fantasy, so how could a great sage with "divine wisdom" sit still and wait for death?

From the moment he was poisoned, he began to prepare skills to suppress the poison, and has been waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a chance to break the situation.

And this opportunity came faster than he expected. First, Shinji used "Fantasy Collapse" to blow up the palace and break the closed environment. Then Mordred broke in, and the lion Kaikaili hiding in the corridor dropped smoke bombs. All conditions are finally met. So Chiron released all his magic power without hesitation, and used his A+ level agility to the maximum. He held Shinji in one hand and Achilles, who was unable to move due to lack of magic power, with the other hand, retreated at a high speed.

As for Atalanta, who was also incapacitated, and Avisbronn, who was agile, they were picked up by Siegfried, who was closest, and left with Chiron.

"Master, Lancer, chase after me quickly!" Semiramis urged.

"Don't even think about it!" Shenji mustered up the magic power that he finally recovered and threw the Ishtar gun backhand, "Do it again - the illusion collapses!"

In an instant, the ground shook.

PS: The tragedy of Siegfried is that there is no defense in the back. Semiramis's poison is omnidirectional, and it penetrates directly from the back, otherwise it would not be so easy to fall. So why doesn't Achilles' heel have such an absolutely irresistible curse? Brother Fei will suffer such a disadvantage.
