Chapter 776 Ominous Movement (Restarting 2077)

For Rin Toosaka, this was also a difficult night.

Sakura………………

Her sister had been missing for eleven years and finally appeared in front of her again. The only thing that made Rin Toosaka feel relieved was that, at least on the surface, Sakura did not seem to be abused, and her reaction was also normal. Although she wanted to prevent herself from winning the Holy Grail War, she did not show that she would do anything to stop it… In short, it seems that Sakura should have lived a good life in recent years.

This somewhat relieved Rin Toosaka. In any case, at least it seemed that Sakura's life was not so cruel and painful. From her appearance, she seemed to be living a good life. Of course, Rin Toosaka also knew that this was just self-consolation, but this at least made her feel more at ease. Although she also hoped to communicate with Sakura as soon as possible, there was still a thorny problem in front of her.

"ARCHER."

After breakfast, Rin Toosaka immediately summoned ARCHER and asked.

"You fought with the Servant last night, do you know what class the other party is?"

"……………………"

Faced with Rin Toosaka's question, ARCHER's expression was a little subtle.

"Class... probably ASSASSIN?"

"ASSASSIN? Why probably?"

"Because the opponent had no breath before attacking me, it is almost certain that it should be the breath blocking unique to the ASSASSIN class."

"Then what about the rest?"

"... If I have to say, the opponent's servant's weapon... is very rare."

"Oh? Very rare weapon? Is it a Noble Phantasm?"

Hearing this, Toosaka Rin suddenly became excited. The rarer the Noble Phantasm, the more certain the opponent's identity should be.

"I'm not sure, because the opponent used a gun."

"Gun? So it's like Lancer?"

"It's not the kind of gun you think, Rin."

Hearing Toosaka Rin's question, ARCHER shook his head, then he raised his right hand, raised his thumb and index finger, and aimed at Toosaka Rin.

"It's this kind of gun."

"... Huh?"

It has to be said that this really stunned Toosaka Rin.

"You mean... that Heroic Spirit is using modern weapons?"

At this moment, Rin Tohsaka felt that her brain seemed to be a little confused, and she even suspected that ARCHER was teasing her. However, the latter's expression was very serious, and he didn't look like he was joking at all.

"Strictly speaking, it doesn't look like a modern weapon... In short, the firearms used by the opponent are extremely powerful..."

Speaking of this, ARCHER also took a breath. He had never seen such a domineering and terrifying firearm attack. The opponent came up and fired a barrage, and ARCHER almost ran away with his head in his arms. Although it is reasonable to say that ARCHER is also good at long-range attacks, but the arrows shot one by one, whether in terms of speed or power, are obviously not comparable to fully automatic firearms.

Otherwise, firearms would not have eliminated bows and arrows, so it is understandable that ARCHER was beaten and ran away with his head in his arms. The opponent can shoot you into a sieve in the time you shoot an arrow. If you don't run, wouldn't it be suicide?

"There is such a Heroic Spirit?"

Hearing ARCHER's answer, Rin Tohsaka was also confused.

"Are you sure that's its Noble Phantasm?"

"I'm sure that if it's a bullet fired from an ordinary firearm, it's impossible to cause harm to us as Heroic Spirits. The only flaw of the opponent is probably that the range is relatively short, and it can't shoot at a long distance."

In this regard, ARCHER still has the advantage, but not completely, because his opponent is ASSASSIN. If ARCHER tries to distance himself and fly a kite, then the opponent will disappear immediately, and then find a way to close the distance again to fight. But if ARCHER doesn't distance himself, then he will be waiting to endure the hail of bullets.

It has to be said that ARCHER was also very frustrated in the battle last night.

"In other words, ASSASSIN's own combat power is average, but the Noble Phantasm is very strong?"

Tohsaka Rin thought about it. It's not that there are no such Heroic Spirits, but Heroic Spirits using modern weapons are indeed very rare. After all... Generally speaking, no one in this era can make achievements comparable to Heroic Spirits.

"That's about it. After all, ASSASSIN was the weakest one among the servants. If the opponent's guns were not really tricky, I would not have chosen to retreat."

Speaking of this, ARCHER was a little unwilling. Just as he said, according to reason, modern weapons can't hurt the Heroic Spirits at all. Even if a missile is thrown at them, it's the same, because the Heroic Spirits are ghosts after all. It's putting the cart before the horse to use physical means to deal with ghosts.

However, if the missile has the power to cause damage to the Heroic Spirits, it would be terrifying.

This is why guns and tanks will eliminate bows and cavalry. The Heroic Spirits should be an exception...

"It seems to be really tricky..."

After hearing ARCHER's answer, Tohsaka Rin gritted her teeth. She was not an idiot. After listening to ARCHER's explanation, I immediately understood Sakura's tactics. It was obvious that the opponent was a very orthodox heroic spirit versus heroic spirit, magician versus magician tactic.

But this is very abnormal for Sakura, because her servant is ASSASSIN, and ASSASSIN is usually used to assassinate the master. So Sakura's fighting method is obviously abnormal, but this is good, after all, this way Tohsaka Rin can concentrate on dealing with his sister...

But I can’t beat it!

Thinking of this, Tohsaka Rin also had a headache and hugged his head.

Imaginary number attribute, this thing is so rare that there is no record in the book, so Tohsaka Rin doesn't know how to deal with it.

In the continent of Faerûn, Tohsaka Rin is an evocation mage. She is not afraid of direct spell confrontation, but is afraid of weird things like illusion, enchantment or prophecy... But Sakura is the one. Belongs to this type.

From last night's fight, Tohsaka Rin could tell that his sister was not the kind of magician who talks on paper and works behind closed doors. Not only was she rich in practical experience, but she was also very comfortable in the application of magic. If his father could see Sakura now, he would definitely admire her greatly.

"Why……………"

Thinking of his father, Tohsaka Rin sighed silently again.

Although as a magician, she doesn't think her father did anything wrong, but... Sakura may never forgive her father in her lifetime.

"MASTER."

Just when Tohsaka Rin was having complicated thoughts, ARCHER's voice sounded again.

"Although I don't want to say it, it's almost time for school."

"Ah, crap!"

Rin Tosaka came back to his senses, glanced at the clock, jumped up from the table, and rushed towards the door in a hurry.

"Let's go, ARCHER!"

For the citizens of Fuyuki City, everything is business as usual.

No one noticed the battle that took place last night. On the one hand, the battlefield was outside the church far away from the city. On the other hand, the Holy Church covered up the battle. As for the cemetery destroyed by the battle between SABER and BERSERKER, it was The name of the gas explosion fooled the past.

Well, the gas company in Fuyuki City might have gone bankrupt long ago.

Duanmuhuai also took others around Fuyuki City for a day, but still found nothing.

"Currently, the only ones that can be determined are SABER, ARCHER and BERSERKER. CASTER has been killed by us. What Sakura has in her hands is either RIDER or ASSASSIN..."

As for why it wasn't LANCER, the reason is very simple, that is, the battle between ARCHER and LANCER at the beginning was not only seen by Sakura, but also by Duanmu Huai and the others. After that, the location of LANCER was locked and determined to be inside the church.

"It seems we have to wait until night."

After turning around, Duanmuhuai found nothing, so he had no choice but to wait for night to fall again. Different from the Fourth Holy Grail War, this time the Master and Servants are all rats and do not go out until night.

only………

"Something feels wrong."

Standing on the top of the high-rise building, overlooking the Fuyuki City in front of him, Duanmu Huai frowned. His intuition felt a strange danger, as if something was spreading in the city. The aura seemed to be there, even a little familiar, but because it was too weak, Duanmu Huai couldn't connect it for a while.

"Lord Knight."

"MASTER."

At this moment, other people came back one after another, but their expressions were very ugly.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Just now we saw the news on TV in the shopping street, saying that someone was missing."

"Missing? When did it happen?"

"Yesterday evening, many girls who were said to be returning home from school were not able to return home. There were dozens of missing people."

"Did CASTER do it?"

"No, the magic power of Liudong Temple comes from the office space in the new development zone. CASTER absorbs the energy of men, not the power of girls."

"Where's the school?"

"The Master of ARCHER goes to school there, but she doesn't seem to notice anything unusual. I went to inquire just now, and it seems that because of the disappearance, the school has decided to stop all extracurricular activities today and go home immediately after school."

"There is such a thing..."

Duanmuhuai frowned and thought, then he looked at Lorena, Matthew, Irisviel and Medea in turn.

"Did you find nothing last night? Nothing unusual?"

"………………"

The four of them looked at each other and shook their heads.

"I see."

Duanmuhuai also made a decision at this moment.

"From now on, everyone will monitor the students who come home from school to see if there is anything unusual. As for the other masters, Medea and Irisviel can just put a few familiars to watch."

"MASTER, do you think this is the work of a servant?"

Ma Xiu also asked, while Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm not sure. Anyway, I have a bad feeling. Let's take a look first and then talk about it."

Then, he replied.
