[Don't worry about me, just keep going!] Emiya shouted loudly in the telepathic connection.
The bouncy sphere did hinder his movement, but he could have easily used the portal to escape directly from the enemy's attack range. Furthermore, unlike the force field wall, the narrow bouncy sphere offered no space for intruders to teleport, giving him ample time to slowly escape using the portal.
If the Lust Demon is a beauty that can make mortals salivate, then the Bone Demon is a truly terrifying monster that can keep people from sleeping.
Their bodies were a pale white, but their seemingly slender bodies were actually covered with dense cortex. Like countless of their kind, creepy spikes unnaturally emerged from their skin, twitching slightly on their body surface.
Their movements were still slightly slower than the succubus's, so their attacks arrived much later than the succubus's arrows.
——Those were five emerald green rays of light.
They flew out from the Bone Demon's fingertips, only a fraction of a second slower than the arrows.
When Emilia saw these lights, her heart almost stopped.
But Lulu, who had been resting on Emilia's shoulder, suddenly brightened her eyes.
The almost invisible golden dim light was spread silently by her, enveloping Emilia and herself.
Green rays are extremely rare in this world.
The most dangerous of them is the sixth-ring spell Disintegration - the most deadly thing is that Disintegration happens to be one of the few weaknesses of the force field wall.
If you are unfortunately hit by the Disintegration spell, you and all the matter you carry may turn into worthless fine dust in an instant. This is one of the so-called instant death spells.
The worst thing is that Emilia is now trapped in the elastic ball and can't move, she can't even hide!
However, the Bone Demon's rays were clearly not that powerful. As soon as they entered Lulu's aura, they vanished. They only reappeared when Lulu sat on Emilia's shoulders and walked away, only to be neutralized by the force field wall.
As a celestial creature, the Holy Flying Elephant is not actually good at directly participating in combat - on the contrary, they are an extremely powerful assistant.
They can maintain a power called an indestructible aura, a barrier that acts like an anti-magic field, suppressing all magical effects from the outside world.
If it were simply to suppress incoming damaging spells, this wouldn't be such a powerful effect, but unfortunately, a few crucial spells aren't that high-level—dispel magic and counterspell, for example.
However, since these rays failed to destroy the force field wall, it means that these rays are not extremely dangerous things like disintegration magic—
Although in some ways, this green light may be even more versatile than dissociation.
This is the Bone Demon's innate spellcasting ability, Dimension Anchor.
This spell has one and only one effect - it makes the recipient unable to be affected by any spatial teleportation magical effects while the spell lasts.
The so-called anchor naturally makes people stay in place like an anchored ship and unable to leave.
The dimensional anchor failed to work, but it still made one thing clear - this was not an ambush, it was an assassination.
If it was an ambush, the demons would aim for maximum damage, while the bone demons would try to use their ice wall spell, which they were also proficient in.
The several dimensional anchors fired since the ambush were all aimed at Emiya, and the reason was very clear - their only purpose was to kill Emiya and not allow him to escape.
After confirming this, Emiya actually relaxed a little and finally dared to breathe deeply.
With a clear goal, everything would be easy. He immediately released the portal and caught up with the team.
Everything is back to where it started.
Metatron is naturally the one who reacts the fastest in the team.
She withdrew her gaze from the arrows and rays of light that broke through the air, looked at the caves left by the burrowing worms when they broke out of the ground, and roughly estimated the distance between the demons.
Only a few seconds had passed since the battle began.
The demons wanted to keep some distance between themselves, but they simply didn't have enough time to do it.
Metatron raised her sword, but then paused.
Among all the enemies present, the strongest one, the Hell Demon, has not made any move yet.
The highest order devil, the Pit Fiend, was the only devil who did not attack Emiya directly, but instead stared intently at Metatron's movements.
Metatron silently pointed his sword at the Pit Fiend.
A Pit Fiend can unleash a Meteor Burst once a day.
Metatron was confident that she could withstand the direct bombardment of this nine-ring spell, but not everyone in the team behind her would be so lucky.
The strongest men on both sides were unwilling to act rashly, lest they waste the most precious opportunity to attack and return empty-handed, so they fell into a silent stalemate.
Faced with this dilemma, Emilia pondered for a moment, then cast the acceleration spell on all the Phantom Horses present.
Demons have considerable spellcasting ability, but the range of their spells is limited.
By trying to get the Phantom Horse to create distance, the Demon will be forced to take other actions to close the distance, and they can regain the initiative in the battle.
The speed of the Phantom Horse was already several times faster than that of the Devil, and after receiving the effect of the acceleration spell, it was literally as fast as lightning. The whistling sound of the storm in Emilia's ears instantly amplified by several decibels.
In this short period of time, the formation of their team changed again - Metatron and Mars had moved to the end of the team and re-formed the first line of defense.
Their goal remains the same - to reunite with the Hell Knights.
If there is support from the Hell Knights, the probability of casualties in this battle will be greatly reduced. Then, no matter how the devil gains the upper hand, as long as no clear results are achieved, it can be said that this battle is futile.
This is Elturgard, where priests are everywhere. As long as people are not dead, they are no different from being intact.
When the demons realized that the distance between them and Emilia and her group was widening at a speed visible to the naked eye, they immediately became anxious.
Even if the succubus is an excellent archer, the range of the longbow is not infinite—
The terrible thing was that these phantom horses, blessed with acceleration, were incredibly fast. In the few seconds it took for the succubus to gain altitude and secure a shooting angle, the phantom horses had already run hundreds of meters. At this rate, by the time the succubus had finally taken aim and released their bows, their arrows might not even be able to catch up with the phantom horses!
The other demons present almost subconsciously looked at the leader of their team.
The Pit Hell glared at Metatron hatefully and waved his hand heavily forward.
On the other side, everyone in the team immediately realized that Emiya was at the center of the fire.
Elastrid gestured, signaling Emilia to move closer. Emilia understood and rode alongside Elastrid. The priest of the Lucky Church placed his hand on Emilia's chest and murmured softly, "...Move freely."
This spell negates all effects that hinder movement, making it impossible for demons with strange limbs to perform the usual grappling moves.
"Thank you!"
No time to say more.
In this rush, with the help of the Phantom Horse, they had shortened the distance between themselves and the devil to nearly two hundred meters.
The speed at which the devil moves using only its feet and wings is not fast at all.
However, when high-level devils really need to travel long distances, they will not use such low-level organs as legs and wings.
Without even turning around, Yintou pointed to the sky and said, "They're coming over there, at a height of forty meters."
Everyone who was in the mind connection heard the news.
A giant eagle that was already hovering in the sky now circled in front of Emiya and her group and swooped down towards them.
Emiya pursed her lips.
Some scholars claim that the material plane is so vast that it would take a mortal lifetime to explore a single planet. And yet, within the material plane, there are trillions of similar planets.
The material plane with countless planets is just an existence on the same level as any outer plane.
The Outer Planes, particularly Hell and the Abyss, are said to be infinite in size.
Whether this theory is true or not, it implies a problem: in order to operate in this infinitely vast area, many outer plane creatures have powers that mortals on the material plane cannot even imagine.
——Teleportation that can be released at will.
The anecdotes left behind by the spell's failures could be compiled into volumes on the Material Plane, but it remains one of the most widely used unique spells among wizards.
It’s simple, just convenient enough.
powerful enough.
Enough to be irreplaceable.
And such spells are just one of the basic powers that the devil can easily realize.
The next second, Team Emia was engulfed by more than a dozen shadows that suddenly appeared.
The demon, which had just been hundreds of meters away, instantly appeared above them. The distance created by the Phantom Pony's desperate run was nothing but a joke in front of the casually released teleportation spell.
Emiya took a deep breath.
——But this is exactly what he wants!
As the ambushed party, they finally turned from being the test-takers to the test-setters!
Unlimited use and continuous high-frequency use without rest are different concepts.
The demons are not capable of teleporting dozens of times in a few tenths of a second.
When they anticipated the devil's teleportation, the devil's teleportation actually became a huge flaw for them.
Silver's early warnings had never been wrong, so Sig had already been ready.
With a grin on his face, Sig cast a spell in advance towards the location of the silver finger, creating a strange and constantly rotating pattern there.
This spell, called Hypnotic Pattern, is one of the few useful spells among the bard's spells.
Elastrid raised the holy symbol in that direction: "...Blade Barrier."
Apparently, the demons hadn't had time to communicate their teleportation locations in detail, so their distribution was very uneven: some demons were high up, while a small number of demons happened to be completely huddled together.
It was probably no coincidence that the location where the demons were most crowded happened to be the location that Yin pointed to.
However, these demons were certainly not ordinary creatures. Even though they were almost directly faced with Sig's spell in a hurry, only a handful of them were seriously affected.
But Blade Wall was not such a friendly spell - countless rotating blades composed of magic formed a solid wall, and all the demons that were unfortunate enough to appear in the wall had countless deep wounds on their bodies almost instantly, and foul-smelling pus and blood gushed out.
Emiya pursed her lips.
——If it was a weaker enemy, this combination of punches should be enough to make them want to retreat or even lose their fighting ability.
But now, the group of demons looked like they were only slightly injured.
The only devil who did not arrive was the Devil of Hell who was still confronting Metatron.
However, seeing the disastrous result of the devil's teleportation, the Hell Demon in charge of the action still frowned.
"Is it teleportation? But why?"
Spell Teleport Precognition can indeed accurately predict the effects of nearby teleportation spells, and can even delay these teleportation effects for one round.
However, the effects of spells have a limited range, and the demons were naturally aware of this, so they deliberately kept their distance from Emiya's team.
It is said that even the teleportation prediction of a ninth-ring wizard cannot cover a distance of more than forty meters!
Team Emiya was able to predict the teleportation location and even successfully made preparations in advance, but did not postpone the teleportation... Why?
In any case, because of a radical decision, the positions of the ambushers and the ambushed were instantly reversed.
...The Hell Demon gritted his teeth. Seeing that Emiya and his group were getting smaller and smaller in his eyes, he had to take action.
He pointed his finger at the sky: "—Meteor Explosion!"
Meteor Explosion is the dream lover of the Transfiguration Mage because he satisfies everything the Transfiguration Mage pursues.
Devastating damage, earth-shattering coverage, kinetic impact damage rather than simply driving elements -
And most importantly, the extremely long range measured in kilometers
The distance Emilia and her group had created was still far from enough to escape the range of the meteor explosion.
Four scarlet magic circles took shape in mid-air, and blazing meteors fell from the sky, landing on the heads of Emiya and others almost instantly.
And this is the moment Metatron has been waiting for: "—Force field wall!"
Another force field wall was born.
The devastating meteor blast finally met its match. Force Wall is one of the most famously cunning spells a mage can cast—because it's truly vulnerable to only a handful of attacks, and is literally indestructible to most attacks.
Meteor Explosion finally met its match.
Four huge fireballs were aimed at Emiya with a whistling roar, but unfortunately they hit the force field wall.
The meteor explosion unleashed a devastating shockwave and blazing fire, filling the vision of both sides and blowing the Lust Demon's arrows to pieces.
At this time, the second round of attacks from the bone demons finally arrived. After losing sight, several ice walls were scattered on the ground.
The target of these ice walls was obviously still Emya - his eyes were almost instantly filled with ice walls.
Perhaps having learned from his mistakes, Ice Wall, a sixth-ring spell, successfully broke through Lulu's aura and almost completely contained Emiya. The ice wall even successfully enveloped Emiya.
At this moment, Mars's guardian aura flashed slightly, allowing Emiya and Lulu to work a moment faster, and they narrowly avoided being completely swallowed by the freezing cold of the ice wall.
Even so, the bone-chilling cold almost caused Emilia's heart to stop.
