Shirou's clones number 30 million

Mashu immediately raised her shield and stood in front of the two of them.

"Here we go, Mash." Olga Marie conjured a bow and arrow once more, preparing for a ranged attack.

"Yes, Director."

The two attacked Medusa simultaneously from the left and right.

The opportunity is here.

Fujimaru Ritsuka silently and quickly formed hand seals, causing a shadow clone to appear under the bridge.

The battle in front of them also began to reach a stalemate.

Mashu completely blocked all of Medusa's attacks with her shield, while Olga Marie took the opportunity to attack from a distance, and the sound of weapons clashing against shields rang out continuously.

"What's going on? Why can't I hit anything? Are there no arrows that are guaranteed to hit?"

Suddenly, a sword aura flashed by, swiftly severing the chains surrounding Medusa and forcing her back.

"Do you need any help, ladies?"

The speaker was none other than the shadow clone that Fujimaru Ritsuka had just created.

At this moment, he had already transformed into the appearance of Liu Xiu.

"who are you?"

Olga Marie immediately retreated to Fujimaru Ritsuka's side, assuming a ready-to-strike stance.

"I am Liu Xiu, a lone follower, and I have some knowledge of this singularity."

"Suspicious, very suspicious! Fujimaru, give the order!"

Again.

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at her speechlessly. Every time she asked me to give the order, but I always ignored her.

"Director, Mashu, go with him and take down that Lancer!"

“Yes, senior.” Mashu immediately rushed forward.

"You trust others so easily. It seems you not only have low Master qualifications, but you're also not very smart."

How outrageous! How could they treat their savior like this?

"Director, I just feel that he is different from other Servants, and there's no harm in trying to believe him."

"In that case, you stay behind me and be careful. If you encounter any danger, use me to take the hit."

"What are you saying? How could I possibly do that?"

"Fujimaru!" Olga Marie glared fiercely at Fujimaru Ritsuka and said angrily, "Do you know what the situation is? You are the last Master of Chaldea and our only hope."

“Even if I die here, Mash will be there. Besides, since the Demi-Servant was able to succeed twice, it can definitely succeed again.”

"On the contrary, if you die here, everything will be over."

"So, without exaggeration, you are the most important one among the three of us. I will risk my life to make sure you live."

Fujimaru Ritsuka remained silent, surprised that she thought that way.

No wonder she had been acting nervous and overly cautious since the beginning.

At this moment, Mashu had already retreated again and said in a low voice:

"Senior, the newly appeared Servant is very strong. If we become enemies, we may be wiped out. Please reconsider."

"Why does Mashu say that too?"

Why should I be afraid of my own shadow clones?

“I believe him.” Fujimaru Ritsuka paused for a moment, then continued, “This is not gullibility, but a trust based on reason and evidence. He did not attack when you were fighting Lancer, which shows that he has no intention of being our enemy.”

“He might be trying to gain our trust.” Olga Marie changed the subject. “However, since Fujimaru has decided to believe him, I’ll try to believe him this once too.”

Under the watchful eyes of the three, "Liu Xiu" slowly walked towards Lancer Medusa.

With each step he took forward, Medusa would involuntarily take a step back.

The chains swung wildly, but "Liu Xiu" merely flicked his finger, and all the chains that were close to him snapped.

Clearly, the gap has become enormous.

Seeing all this, Olga Marie became cautious again.

"Mash, be careful. If he shows any sign of turning against us, immediately shield Fujimaru with your shield."

"Yes, Director."

In the distance, Medusa, with nowhere left to retreat, finally couldn't hold back any longer and charged forward with her gun.

Liu Xiu gently gripped the gun barrel and, with a slight effort, snatched it away.

"monster!"

Medusa cursed under her breath and was about to turn and run away, but the moment the thought crossed her mind, the tip of the spear pierced her heart.

After the battle ended, "Liu Xiu" turned his head and glanced at the upper right. One of the followers who had been watching there seemed to have chosen to retreat.

"Cú Chulainn?"

His gaze shifted to the three people in the main body, and he greeted them with a smile:

"Hey... none of the three of you are injured, right?"

"Who are you?" Mash stood in front of the two, shield in hand, and asked in a deep voice, "According to historical records, there is no Servant like you in this Holy Grail War."

"I am Liu Xiu, a lone Servant. Sensing the arrival of the Chaldea people, I came here specifically to help."

"How do you know about Chaldea?" Olga Marie asked, looking surprised.

"I have the ability to see the future from afar, and I can see the future to a certain extent."

Liu Xiu and his true form, Fujimaru Ritsuka, exchanged a glance and continued:

"But now, we can no longer see the future; in other words, humanity has no future."

"What does it mean?"

"It means exactly what it says: someone created numerous singularities, large and small, in the past in order to burn away human history. Humanity outside of Chaldea was completely wiped out after 2016..."

How can this be?

Olga Marie opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

Although he instinctively wanted to refute it, the fact that there wasn't a single living person in Fuyuki City, which was engulfed in flames, was enough to prove his point to some extent.

Although Chaldea was originally established as an institution for the survival of human reason, it was like looking at flowers through a fog—just an expectation.

When that day finally arrived, besides panic, she felt more worried, and her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Can he, as a single Master, shoulder the responsibility of saving the world?

He was thought to be the only remaining Master of Chaldea, the hope for Chaldea's revival.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the only remaining Master in the entire world, and the only hope to save the world.

"Fujimaru, I absolutely... I will never let you die before me."

"Uh... thank you."

Chapter 293 You've Killed Me

Chapter 293, Section 294: You've Got Me Killed

"So, the enemy is Saber and Archer in the city center?"

After hearing Liu Xiu's explanation, Olga Marie quickly made her own judgment and turned to look at Fujimaru Ritsuka:

"Fujimaru, give the order!"

Here we go again.

Fujimaru Ritsuka looked at her speechlessly. Was it really that interesting to go through the motions every time?

"Alright, let's head straight for the Great Void and take down those two Servants."

"Are you sure you want to go? Fujimaru, what if it's a trap?"

“Even if it’s a trap, we should still go through it, right? After all, the key to resolving this singularity is clearly right there.”

Olga Marie hesitated for a few seconds, then suddenly suggested:

"In that case, I have an idea. Why don't we try to separate Archer and Saber first, and then defeat them one by one?"

If there is only one enemy, even if the follower who claims to be "Liu Xiu" betrays him, he should be able to escape.

"Okay, let's do it that way."

Fujimaru Ritsuka had no objection to this.

If there's only one enemy, it's a good opportunity for the director and Mash to gain some combat experience.

Although neither of them wants to participate in the battle, they should be able to accept the buffs they provide from the rear.

This is actually a good thing. If they had to fight through the singularities on their own, they would lack training and would be in even greater danger when they encountered more difficult singularities in the future.

……

"careful!"

After passing through the woods, the group arrived at an underground workshop in the city center. Just as they were about to enter, a long sword suddenly pierced through the air behind them.

Mashu immediately raised her shield to block the attack and looked warily at a distance of more than ten meters.

There, Archer held a longbow, nocked his sword as an arrow.

"what……?"

Olga Marie looked surprised and subconsciously glanced at the bow and arrow in her hand.

Why is his bow exactly the same as mine? And why do I feel like I've seen that face somewhere before?

In addition, the bodysuit he was wearing was somewhat similar to his own.

In that instant, a guess gradually surfaced in my mind.
