The Infinite Journey of the Sage

Chapter 129

Arturia had just released the Wind King's barrier and blocked one of the silver-haired young man's cannonballs.

Yes, it's cannonballs. Although the cannonballs are fired from the barrel formed in the box, most of the heroic spirits are ancient heroic spirits.

Because the mystery of modern heroic spirits is too low, their death is basically in full view of the public.

This kind of thing has no story or legend at all. Although their achievements may be unparalleled, for example, if a Finnish sniper killed more than 505 people, it is completely impossible for him to become a heroic spirit when he dies.

Since modern heroes cannot become heroic spirits, there is no doubt that modern weapons cannot appear in the hands of heroic spirits.

This is foul stuff after all.

Rifles like the 98K can even reach a distance of 800 to 1,200 meters with a high-power scope, and the Archer class usually has a vision bonus. In this case, whether you are holding a 98K or a There is no difference between the M82A1 and the 12.7mm bullet.

This is commonly known as beyond-visual-range strike in warfare. This is generally used to describe aircraft missiles, but it is also applicable in heroic wars.

An ordinary heroic spirit can easily shoot an arrow 300 to 500 meters after drawing a bow and nocking an arrow. It would be even better if it were replaced by a firearm.

Therefore, these things do not become the Noble Phantasms of heroic spirits by default.

But now, contrary to common sense, what appeared in front of Artoria was a suitcase that could transform into a cannon.

In fact, Artoria couldn't tell what the suitcase was, but in just a short moment, she saw densely packed things flying over.

Arturia, who had a strong sense of intuition, instantly figured out what to do.

She shouldn't have any problem even if she eats it forcefully, but Kiritsugu behind her is an ordinary person. Once she eats it forcefully, Kiritsugu will definitely be affected.

It is almost impossible for ordinary people to survive such an intensive attack.

In addition, Kiritsugu had just used the inherent time control.

Arturia could only shout loudly in an instant, liberating the Wind King's barrier, instantly wrapping her entire body, and countless bee-like bombs exploded around her.

The Wind King's Barrier is known as a C-level Noble Phantasm, but it is extremely useful for people, whether it is used to protect oneself or used as an attack by the Wind King's Hammer.

It consumes less magic power and releases it quickly. Even when the magic power is at its lowest, Artoria never hesitates to release the Wind King's barrier.

Although the release of the Wind King's barrier will cause the Sword of Victory to be exposed for a short moment, in this situation, it doesn't matter whether it is exposed or not.

Arturia's breathing was heavy, but her whole body was like a lioness lowering her posture and preparing to hunt. Her whole body was filled with a vigilant posture, and she looked extremely scary.

This woman's whole body was filled with a dangerous aura, but she was just trying to avoid the enemy. Emiya Kiritsugu behind her, no matter how much of a magician-killer she was, was essentially just an ordinary person.

Such an ordinary person would never survive the battle between two heroic spirits.

What's more, these two heroic spirits are Saber and Archer, one of the Three Knights.

"How about this." Besides the heroic spirits with lazy silver-haired bangs, they were also wearing red clothes and long red cloaks, which made them all look particularly charming.

"How about letting your master go first? When he goes far away, we will have a good fight without worrying about other people's existence." He took back the metal box and exuded the greatest kindness.

Taking the battle between heroic spirits as an example, as long as one heroic spirit attacks the master of another heroic spirit, the other heroic spirit will have almost no ability to resist unless it possesses the skill of [Acting Alone].

Therefore, behind the scenes of the battle between heroes, the Holy Grail War is actually a game of finding the opponent's master and hiding oneself.

In this game, in the fourth battle, Emiya Kiritsugu, Kenneth, Tokiomi Tohsaka, and even Matou Kariya have been working hard to hide themselves, while other orthodox magicians have built their own positions. Defense, vigilance, may not even appear in one's own position.

For example, Kotomine Kirei is the best among the hiders, except Tohsaka Tokiomi, who remained hidden until the last battle.

There is no doubt that this is a complete old Yin Bi.

For example, this battle is the same.

The Slippery Ghost held back Red R, and Dante held back Artoria. When Kiritsugu Emiya set foot on the road to the Tohsaka Residence alone, a person whom no one expected appeared on the ramp. The end.

"Let me ask you, do you believe in God?" Wearing a priest's uniform, the cross in his hand reflected the silver light under the streetlight, and more importantly, his face.

"Shirou?" Even Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help but exclaimed.

The young man who came to stop him seemed to be someone from the Holy Church, perhaps a subordinate of Kotomine Kirei, but he actually had the same face as Emiya Shirou and the Heroic Spirit Rider!

Hearing his exclamation, Kotomine Shirou couldn't help but frown.

"You know me?" he asked.

"Is your name really Shirou?" Emiya Kiritsugu was stunned this time.

The two of them looked at each other in the autumn wind, both in a daze.

"Forget it, forget about it." Kotomine Shirou shook his head. After several years of training, he was no longer a simple trainee priest.

He only saw a flick of his right hand, and the four black keys had already come to his hand. Then he raised his right hand and threw out the black keys in an instant.

These black keys are usually just in the hilt state and look like four crosses, but once activated with magic power, they can be extended into a dagger with a blade length of one meter.

This method of throwing a dagger is unique to the Holy Church. The hilt is thrown out of the sleeve, the blade is activated, and then thrown out, almost in one go.

The attack range of these blades is a full fifty to eighty meters, almost covering the entire range of short- and medium-range combat.

Emiya Kiritsugu has fought against Kotomine Kirei, and he has enough experience facing the Black Keys.

These black keys are equipment used to destroy evil spirits, so they are twice as effective against vampires or evil.

But their lethality comes entirely from speed. Whether it is a rotating black key or a straight black key, their power is determined by the user's arm strength.

When the Black Key flew out, the submachine gun in Emiya Kiritsugu's hand had already fired.

Because in a society like Japan, it is impossible to prepare too many weapons.

So when Uzi hit the black keys with 9MM bullets, Kotomine Shirou had already rushed up.

As the saying goes, fists are afraid of youth. There is no doubt that Kotomine Shirou is at a peak stage in his life, and he will continue to climb up. The black keys he throws are undoubtedly more powerful than Kotomine Kirei.

But this is meaningless. Judging from experience, the experience of these two old men, Kotomine Kirei and Emiya Kiritsugu, can completely defeat him!

All I could see was that Emiya Kiritsugu was pressing the Uzi firmly with his hand, and while he was retreating, the bullet in his hand rushed towards Kotomine Shirou with hot kinetic energy.

Kotomine Shirou's action template is almost carved from the same mold as Kotomine Kirei. Emiya Kiritsugu's Uzi submachine gun is actually the best weapon that can be purchased locally. It is almost considered a gangster. "Light machine gun" is small and light. Even if the magazine is extended, it will not take up too much space. It is basically the magic weapon of the Japanese Yakuza. It is also the best that Emiya Kiritsugu can buy. weapons.

Of course, the TC pistol and origin bullets in his own hands are definitely the best.

It's just that what he is using to contain the enemy now is an extended magazine. As long as the 40-round Uzi has a rhythm, it is very simple to contain the enemy.

Even Kotomine Shirou, who possesses body strengthening magic, cannot guarantee that his face will not be penetrated by a 9mm bullet. He crossed his hands in front of him, only exposing a little bit of his forehead, and narrowed his eyes slightly. , paying close attention to Emiya Kiritsugu.

Emiya Kiritsugu fired Uzi continuously. Just pressing down the muzzle of the gun and hitting all the bullets on Kotomine Shirou was impressive enough, let alone intensively shooting at his forehead and eyes.

In all military and police exercises around the world, the drill requirement is always to fire two shots at the enemy's drive.

The power of a modern pistol can ensure that one shot is fatal, but the second shot can ensure that the enemy will die immediately. But now almost all 40 bullets have hit Kotomine Shirou, but he seems to be invulnerable, and the bullets hit him. It turned into copper pieces and fell to the ground with a clanking sound, but Emiya Kiritsugu and Kotomine Shirou kept a certain distance.

Kotomine Shirou was charging, and Emiya Kiritsugu was retreating, but Kotomine Shirou was charging from top to bottom, from high to below. No matter how Emiya Kiritsugu retreated, his speed could no longer match Kotomine Shirou's.

I saw Emiya Kiritsugu raising the TC pistol and pointing it at Kotomine Shirou. Thinking of the advice given to him by his adoptive father, Kotomine Shirou suddenly started zigzagging like a poisonous snake. Emiya Kiritsugu's aim suddenly became clear. Times are getting tough.

"Maiya, I need support." Emiya Kiritsugu put his pistol into his gun belt, and immediately pulled out the magazine from his belt with his right hand to replace Uzi's magazine.

"I'm here." On a building in Fuyuki City, a woman in her thirties wearing OL clothes was wearing a uniform unique to ordinary Japanese companies. She wore black stockings and high heels. She had a well-proportioned figure, but she actually Lying on the building hundreds of meters high, even though my hair was tied up, it was still fluttering in the wind from the tall building.

She was lying on the ground, holding a Walter W2000 in her hand. The sniper scope of the Walter W2000 was a bloated electronic device.

This kind of sniper electronic equipment can easily help shooters calculate wind speed and ballistics. Coupled with the high accuracy of the W2000, there is no problem even when sniping an enemy on a house 600 meters away.

This woman who disappeared after the last Holy Grail War worked in a trading company in Fuyuki City for ten years.

In the past ten years, apart from maintaining Emiya Kiritsugu's firearms and practicing her own marksmanship, she only went to work and then went home.

Because of this, she has become the head of a certain department in this company in the past ten years. The sexy and mature supervisor is the dream lover of countless young boys.

It's a pity that she is not only a celibate, but also a killer.

She had been lurking for ten years just for the timing of this shot.

I only saw the high-precision bullet with a caliber of 7.62 mm escape from the gun in an instant, cutting through the autumn wind and the coolness, carrying heat and murderous intent, and rushed towards Kotomine Shirou's body in an instant.

As mentioned before, the aiming accuracy of something like a head is really too low, and few normal killers would aim at him.

What's more, the power of the 7.62mm caliber is sufficient. Recently, some military experts have even suggested that it is overpowered and requires a smaller caliber rifle.

Even if Kotomine Shirou's body strengthening magic is extremely solid, even if his clothes are made with special magic rituals, they can resist bullets to a certain extent.

But when he actually faced the 7.62mm bullet, it hit his left arm in an instant, breaking his arm immediately, but it was stuck between the second and third layers of clothing.

Kotomine Shirou's offensive came to a halt in an instant.

He gathered all his energy and rushed forward to kill Emiya Kiritsugu. That was called hunting. Now that he had a broken arm and the enemy was surrounding him, he still dared to attack Emiya Kiritsugu. That was called seeking death.

He stopped for an instant, then rolled to the side of the ramp, jumped down more than ten meters in an instant, and then climbed over a railing again, and he had disappeared from Emiya Kiritsugu's sight.

As Maiya took things apart and put them into boxes before retreating, he asked on the radio: "Why didn't you kill him just now?"

With Emiya Kiritsugu's ability, as long as one shot of origin bounces past Kotomine Shirou when he pauses, everything will be over.

"There are some things that need to be confirmed." Emiya Kiritsugu didn't say much, but remained silent for a moment.

"Thank you for all the hard work over the years, Maiya."

"..."

There was silence for a long time, and then there was a sound of breathing.

"No, this is my responsibility."

When Emiya Kiritsugu arrived at the gate of the Tohsaka Residence, it only took a moment for Homado Rinaki and the others who controlled Guanhu to discover him.

When Keilal heard their report, he shook his head and said, "This is really a long night..."

"Go and invite him in." Kelar felt the fluctuation of magic power outside, turned to Mordred and Dinisha and asked with a smile: "How are you, are you interested in a long-lost Holy Grail War? ?”

An excited expression appeared on Mordred's face, and a set of fully sealed armor instantly appeared on his body.

Dinisha smiled at Keilal, and a two-meter-long sword appeared behind her.

"Then let's go have some fun."
