Chapter 260: Oppression From the Swordsman

On one side are two girls who have been protected by their families and have never experienced fighting.

On the other side are swordsmen who have experienced life and death, participated in the Holy Grail War, fought with heroes, and killed countless people.

No matter how you look at it, the victory or defeat has been determined.

But in order to protect them, or the people they want to protect, the two magical girls resolutely challenged the natural barrier.

"We have two ways, either to knock down the enemy immediately, or to rescue the two people while the enemy is not paying attention, and retreat with Father New Moon."

"Ah, that gun, if you use the gun that killed Rider, you can kill him in one shot."

"No, it can't be used now."

"If you use a limited expansion (Includ) once, you can't use that card again within a few hours." Shafia explained.

"It's like a restriction ban." Ruby agreed.

Miyu nodded and continued, "Rider was taken away by a mysterious person, and Caster doesn't know the effect yet. It's too risky to suddenly use this card at a critical moment."

"Plus Archer can only conjure a bow, which is useless, so we can only choose the second option." Ruby said helplessly.

The second option is to evacuate immediately after rescuing the "hostages" and fight again another day.

With her white boots stepping on the ground, Miyu walked forward and said firmly, "I will lead the enemy away, and Illyasviel will approach the enemy from the right with a tree as cover, and rescue the two of them. The priest doesn't seem to be discovered by the servants, so don't worry about it for now. After Rin and Luvia are rescued, we will set up a portal next to him and escape from this space immediately-is that okay?"

Illya swallowed her saliva and nodded with some difficulty: "Yeah... Yeah!",

This is only the second battle. Is it too difficult for Illya...

Miyu couldn't help but worry about it, but now that the adults were collectively sunk, Miyu could only rely on Illya's assistance.

Suppressing their extra emotions, the two magical girls looked forward.

The swordsman with white hair blown by the wind, wearing a mask and tightly pursed lips was standing next to Rin and Luvia, like a dragon guarding treasure in a cave.

The next moment, the two began to run to defeat the dragon.

Miyu climbed over the railing and stepped on the surface of the Miyuan River. She did not sink, but stood steadily on the water after the ripples were created. She continued to run and run, and finally jumped up like climbing a ladder and jumped into the sky!

"Using the magic barrier to move in three dimensions!" Ruby saw Miyu's actions and praised, "It's worthy of the method that Miyu-sama can think of!"

"There is no time to pay attention to that side now, Ruby, we have to act too!" Illya shuttled through the woods, and the small figure quickly approached Rin and Luvia.

"Oh, I see!"

Using the magic barrier to jump to high altitude, Miyu looked down at the terrain, and the swordsman standing still also turned his head slightly as if he had sensed something.

"Lady Luvia and the others are too close to the enemy."

"It seems that we can't use large-scale attacks." Miyu said in a deep voice, but the next moment, she saw the swordsman take a step and openly distance himself from the two people who fell to the ground.

This is obviously a meaningless behavior. If the swordsman just stands next to Rin and Luvia, he will naturally have an extra shield, which can make Miyu feel restrained, but now, the swordsman took the initiative to walk out of the safety circle...!

"Is this his confidence?" Miyu whispered solemnly, but his hands moved quickly.

Raising the staff high, the circular patterns depicting the mysterious runes unfolded in circles, and finally gathered a bright sphere at the top.

"Rapid fire!"

Countless magic balls fell like raindrops, but the swordsman did not react at all. The magic fog surrounding him suddenly appeared and dispersed Miyu's attack.

"The enemy was not hurt at all, and the attack did not hit the enemy." Sapphire reported truthfully.

"Blocked by the black fog?!" A little frustration rose, but Miyu was unmoved, and the magic bullets gathered on the magic wand again.

It doesn't matter, her purpose is not to pursue killing. What she should do now is to buy some time to rescue Lin and Luvia.

"Shoot!"

A magic beam like a comet Azra fell from the sky, pouring on the barrier surrounded by dense magic, and then was cut by the sharp black sword energy.

When Miyu dodged the attack, Shuoyue turned around and swung a sword at Illya who was already approaching!

"Illyasphire!" Miyu had just dodged the attack when she saw her companion flying backwards involuntarily and hitting the tree hard!

"It hurts!" Even with the protection of the physical barrier, the impact and the aftermath of the sword energy fell on the silver-haired girl. While feeling that her internal organs were about to shift, Illya suddenly felt a chill on her left arm.

"Ah! My arm, blood..."

"It's okay, this little injury, I can help you recover immediately." Ruby said anxiously.

But Ruby didn't realize that Illya was just an elementary school girl living in a peaceful world a few days ago.

But tonight, the adults who could protect her fell one after another, and she was also injured and bleeding...

What's more, the swordsman who was walking towards her was emitting a murderous intent that could almost freeze the soul.

Raise your hand and chop out the sword energy again!

"What are you doing, Illyasviel!" Miyu turned around and raised her staff before she could even adjust her body shape.

"Safiya, full physical protection!"

The sword energy bombarded the staff handle, and before it could resist for long, the two girls were knocked out.

The slash from the holy sword was a double attack of magic power and sword pressure, which could not be resisted by the magic barrier alone.

Capturing the girls' flaws, the swordsman subconsciously held the holy sword with both hands, paused for a moment as if hesitating, but then, the magic power of his whole body erupted like a tsunami--

If it were a normal Holy Grail War, the masters and servants who noticed something was wrong would immediately avoid it. But now standing in front of Saber were two girls who had not experienced a fierce battle.

Therefore, they did not realize that this was a sign that the treasure was about to be released.

The ominous black magic light column bloomed from the swordsman, all gathered on the holy sword, forming a sword-shaped magic outline.

"This is...!" Finally, Miyu was the first to discover the abnormality.

"No, this is a treasure!" Sapphire and Ruby said in unison, "Danger, Miyu-sama/Illya!"

"Come... too late!" Illya screamed almost desperately, "Ruby, open the barrier with all your strength!"

The swordsman in front of them slowly read out the name of the treasure:

"EX——"

Several beautiful, refracting gems reflected in Shuoyue's eyes.

"Boom!"

There was no damage, but the smoke that obscured the vision rose. The swordsman snorted and released the treasure that was already suppressing the power. He waved his hand to disperse the thick fog.

Miyu and Illya looked at each other and immediately realized something. They looked behind the swordsman in surprise: "That is..."

"Sister Rin!"

Not far away, the twin-tailed girl with a wound exposed on her waist gasped and barely stood up on her knees.

A few stones were thrown, and Luvia, who fell beside her, also reacted.

"Why are you sleeping, young lady? You can't sleep without a canopy bed, right?"

A stone flew over and hit Rin's cheek as if to take revenge.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm just taking a short break." Luvia, who was also injured in the abdomen, climbed up and said stubbornly, "You are indeed a commoner with superficial ideas."

The two looked at each other as if they had reached some kind of consensus, and soon looked at their common enemy.

"... Unscathed."

"It's really unpleasant."

And Sakutsuki, who had a rough memory of the plot, quickly adjusted himself and simply gave up Illya and Miyu behind him and walked towards them with a sword.

Even though Rin and Luvia were genius magicians of the Clock Tower, they could not break through Sakutsuki's anti-magic power at all for them whose magic base was modern.

If he defeated them and made Illya fall into further despair, and if he continued to oppress them, she would be able to awaken the child that Sakutsuki was looking forward to fighting...

But behind him, a shout suddenly rang out.

"Sister Rin, Sister Luvia!"

At some point, the two magical girls actually ran out on their own initiative and quickly approached the swordsman, or rather, Rin and Luvia behind the swordsman.

"Idiot, go back! You can't beat her!" Rin said angrily.

But Illya and Miyu turned a deaf ear to them. After reaching a reasonable distance, they suddenly stopped.

Unable to defeat the swordsman, unable to save Rin and Luvia - both options proposed by Miyu were dead ends.

"So, we choose the third option!"

The ruby ​​and sapphire canes flew out, and Sakutsuki subconsciously swung his sword, but the living gem spirit easily avoided his attack and was caught by the two magicians behind him.

The new transformation light illuminated the corners of the swordsman's slightly cold smile.
