The Warrior of Love

With a shout, the Valkyrie thrust out her spear, and the surging divine light struck the beast's belly, knocking the giant creature violently out. The beast rolled into a ball and the Valkyrie could not find a gap to give chase for a while.

Incredibly, after taking a direct hit from Slud's divine spear, the beast was not ripped open, but only suffered some internal injuries.

"Divine protection?" The Valkyrie frowned.

"Shirou, are you okay?"

Shidune touched the beast's fur worriedly, and the beast made a gurgling sound from its throat, indicating that it was fine.

It was a huge white bear that was two meters tall, and at least four or five meters tall when standing!

There are blue divine runes on its body and an ethnic-style ornament around its neck, but what is most eye-catching is its appearance.

Do ordinary bears have such distinct facial features?

For some reason, this big bear doesn't look fierce at all. Instead, it has a cute and honest impression. With its pair of small black eyes, it looks like a large rag doll for a little girl.

However, Slude will not underestimate it.

Although Shidune looks young, she is an absolute "goddess". Maybe her combat ability is not particularly outstanding, but it is still far higher than that of ordinary servants. Her true strength is stronger than that of Slud now.

This giant bear is more powerful than ordinary fantasy species. It is close to the level of a divine beast and has a certain level of intelligence. Not only does it obey Shidune's orders, it also does not have the bloodthirsty impulse of wild beasts. In a sense, it is more difficult to deal with than ordinary divine beasts.

There is really no way that Slude alone can capture the combination of Shidune and Ohkuma.

According to past records, when Shidune was wandering in the wilderness, he encountered a patrolling Valkyrie. For some unknown reason, a conflict arose, and five Valkyries rushed over. Although none of them were of the level of Slud and Ortlinde, they were still not something that ordinary servants could resist.

However, Shidune defeated all the Valkyries without any harm, and in the end, Skadi captured her.

She is not someone that Slude in his weakened state can handle!

Of course, Slud never thought of conquering a goddess alone.

hum!hum!hum!

Rays of golden light streaked across the sky, and Valkyries of different appearances but all emitting divine light gathered here.

Now there are only about ten of them left. Although the lineup is no longer as strong as before, this number is enough to form a battle formation.

Shidune looked up at these Valkyries, his cute little face full of helplessness.

She is not afraid of Valkyrie. As a servant of the gods, only Skadi is stronger than her. After all, the queen's power covers the entire world - this endless ice and snow is the embodiment of her magic.

In fact, if it weren't for the need to allocate most of the magic power to support the consumption of the human race and seal some terrible existences like natural disasters... Skadi's strength is above that of ordinary gods.

Because of this, Shido was afraid of Skadi in his heart and didn't want to conflict with her.

This time, after receiving the information from Ortlinde that the Valkyrie Regiment had been destroyed, Shidune, who yearned for freedom, immediately decided to escape from prison, because he saw that Skadi and the Valkyries had just dealt with a strong enemy and their strength had not yet recovered.

At this moment, Shidune could have completely destroyed the Valkyrie's body in front of him, and then rode away openly on Shirou... but after thinking about it, he decided not to do that.

It would be bad if Skadi got angry.

"Come up, big sister!"

Turning over and riding on the broad back of the white bear, the big bear named Shirou immediately turned around and fled, while Shidune reached out to Ortlinde and pulled the black-haired Valkyrie up.

"You are a group of people bullying a group of people. I don't want to play with you anymore, Sayonara--"

"Don't even try to escape!"

Upon seeing this, Slud led the Valkyries into the sky and threw out golden spears.

Ever since the last expedition against Chaldea and the others, the Valkyries, feeling deeply ashamed, had changed their fighting style after releasing their Noble Phantasms and became paralyzed.

There is no need to release the Noble Phantasm. These spears are imitations of the "Okami Declaration". If thrown from a high altitude, their power is comparable to that of an anti-military Noble Phantasm!

Feeling the threat coming from above, Shidune laid on the beast's back and patted the big bear's neck with his small hands.

"Please, Shirou!"

"Roar!"

With a low roar, the big bear revealed a resolute expression in a human-like manner, and used its four claws to speed up again. It no longer ran in a straight line, but kept jumping like lightning, making it impossible to predict its trajectory.

boom! boom! boom!

The pseudo-o great god's declarations kept falling around him, blasting big holes in the snow, but they never hit the big bear's body. No matter how intensive the attacks were, it could always find a gap and escape in time.

Slude was watching this scene from the sky, and even though she was experienced she couldn't help but be surprised.

"Does this beast have a 'mind'?"

This idea is indeed a bit absurd, but Kuma Shirou's actions...cannot be explained by the instinct of a beast.

"hateful!"

Just as Slude was increasing the efficiency of the magic furnace and preparing to further release magic power, the queen's voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

[If you release your magic power at this time, your bodies will be beyond repair. The seal is fluctuating abnormally, and I don't have any spare power now...

Give up the pursuit, let that little girl go if she wants to, she is a free snow fairy, she should not be imprisoned in a dungeon. 】

"What... I understand..."

The Valkyrie's momentum stagnated, and she suddenly felt helpless.

But she could do nothing but watch the big white bear carrying the two of them away, its figure getting smaller and smaller on the vast land until it disappeared on the other side of the horizon.

Chapter 794: Ritsuka's Determination

"I am a follower!"

The sub-servant girl who slept in the same room with Ritsuka opened her eyes, pulled her Master up from the bed a little roughly, and summoned a large shield to hold it with one hand.

"Wow... Mash?"

"Senior, the magical reaction of an unknown Servant has been detected!"

Mashu, who was more sensitive, had a serious expression: "What a strong reaction... and there is more than one. Please prepare for the battle quickly!"

"Ah, I understand!"

Ritsuka, who was still a little confused, immediately came to his senses when he heard the word "Servant". He quickly changed into his combat magic outfit and followed Mash to the outside of the village.

Before they reached their destination, they heard the crisp sound of swords and halberds, which startled the two of them.

Mashu calmed down and sensed it for a moment, then said in a relaxed tone, "It's okay. It was Miss Brunhilde. She discovered the enemy in advance and is already fighting with him."

Then she turned her head and looked at another place: "Ms. Rider is here too!"

call!

Sure enough, a nimble phantom emerged from the night. Rider raised the knight's sword with both hands and slashed heavily at the petite figure who was struggling with Brunhilde.

But just when she was about to succeed, a huge and solid pure white back blocked her attack, allowing her sword to hit the resilient fur.

Unable to break the defense?

"what?"

Perhaps he was really shocked. Rider jumped back with a look of doubt and did not continue to attack.

The little girl who was fighting Brunhilde also exclaimed "Shirou", and took the initiative to leave the battle and confront the Valkyrie.

"You called me out of the blue without even notifying me... What do you do?!"

The little girl seemed very angry, but when she stroked the big bear's back and found that it was not hurt, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Brunhilde was very indifferent and didn't take the little girl's words seriously, still treating her as an enemy.

Although she looks as cold as an iceberg, Brunhilde's heart is actually very gentle and sensitive. It is rare for her to be so heartless.

The reason is the black-haired girl standing with the little girl behind the big bear.

Although the aura was not that strong, as the eldest sister of the Valkyries and the tallest Valkyrie in the world, she was sure that the other party was her "kind".

Then there is no need to say more, after all, all Valkyries except her are enemies!

"Black hair, blue eyes, and that outfit... So you are Fujimaru Ritsuka?"

Ortlinde took a few steps forward anxiously: "Are you Mr. Yuanshan's sister? He mentioned you to me."

"elder brother?"

Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot: "Have you seen my brother?"

"Well, yes..." Ortlinde's voice trailed off.

It was no coincidence that she and Shidune came here, in fact, this was the path she led.

Previously, when Slud led the team to conquer the Chaldeans, the relevant data was uploaded to the database shared by the Valkyries. After Ortlinde returned to the team, she had been connected with them. Of course, this matter could not be hidden from her.

However, she couldn't be sure that Lixiang was the sister that Jiang Liu mentioned. She would not dare to make a conclusion until she actually met her, because the two of them did have a very similar atmosphere.

She had nowhere to go so she subconsciously looked for Ritsuka, but when she finally found him, she didn't know what to say. She paused for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I'm sorry... Mr. Yuanshan has been... "eliminated" by the Queen."

"Well!"

"How is it possible that Mr. Jiang Liu would..."

Not only Ritsuka, but also Mashu showed a look of astonishment, and even Fufu on the girl's shoulder was surprised in a human way.

But everyone soon remembered that the one who came this time was not Jiang Liu's real body, but only the spiritual base that carried part of the power, and they felt relieved.

"No, even if it's just a clone, my brother said it would have the strength of a main god... Is the queen so powerful? But, why did she fight us after all?"

Lixiang frowned, puzzled.

"After coming to this world, we didn't destroy anything, nor did we think of overthrowing the Queen's rule. But suddenly a former Master of Chaldea showed up with so many Valkyries to besiege us... Now that I hear what you said, it is the master of this world - the "Goddess" who is hostile to us!

But why is that?"

Facing Ritsuka's question, Ortlinde slowly shook her head. In fact, she didn't know much. As a tool before, she only knew how to follow orders and never thought about the reasons.

She only knew that half a month before the reflection of the other world appeared in the sky, Ophelia and Gaoyanskaya appeared outside the Queen's palace and gave advice to the Goddess Skadi.

That is, the trumpet of the end has sounded, the world will fall into destruction, and the goddess can only cooperate with them to continue to protect her people.

As a result, just as they said, the shadow of another world appeared in the sky, and as time went by, this world would collapse sooner or later, and the queen had to believe them.

And the details that Ortlinde didn't know:

The solution proposed by Ophelia and the others was to let Skadi unlock the seal of the Fire Giant King Surtur when the two worlds approached the critical point, and they had a way to guide this force and make it all tilt towards the opposite world - which is the hometown of Jiang Liu and Ritsuka.

In other words, it means destroying the opponent in advance to ensure one's own continuation.

Because the so-called "collision" is not a conflict between the two planets in the physical sense, but a mutual devouring of the "civilization history" of the two worlds. According to the normal process, the Skadi side, whose civilization is weaker, has no chance of winning anyway.

In order to continue this weak world, Skadi can only take the advice of Ophelia and others.

——Everyone knows what happened next.

After getting the information about the battle between Jiang Liu and the Valkyries from Ortlinde, Li Xiang pondered for a moment, suddenly raised his head, and said inexplicably: "He is still alive!"

"what?"

"Miss Ortlinde, you didn't actually see my brother's... Yuanshan Jiangliu spiritual base collapse with your own eyes, right?"

"But he was sucked into the 'Gate to the Demonic Realm', which is the Queen's secret method that leads to the Kingdom of the Dead, a place full of death and shadows. He couldn't possibly..."

"He can't just quit like this!"

The gloom on Lixiang's face was swept away, and he was suddenly full of confidence: "He is still alive, in a corner we don't know."

She was about to say something, but suddenly paused, then looked around the room seriously.

If she didn't count the snow elf Shidune she just met, then the forces she could mobilize included Mashu, Brunhilde, Rider, and half of Fou. This amount of troops was undoubtedly a bit stretched, even if the opponent's troops were also very tight.

In this case, she needs to win over Shidune and Ortlinde...but no matter what, her goal will not change in the slightest.

"Let's go 'visit' the Queen and rescue Jiang Liu!"

Chapter 795: The Fierce Battle with the Flame Giant King

Shidunayi was easily won over by Ritsuka because it seemed that she was not a Servant from this world.

Although she appeared here, she was born in the world of Ritsuka and the others. It might be that the two worlds were too close, and things like the cause and effect line were disordered, so some problems occurred when she appeared in this world.

From her point of view, she should have stood with Ritsuka and Jiang Liu, and she only had bad memories with Skadi and the Valkyrie in this world, so she didn't have any psychological burden.

But Ortlinde is different. She chose to escape only because her frozen emotions began to awaken. She gradually realized the things that bound her and continued to resist ignorantly... But this does not mean that she can make up her mind to take action against Skadi and her compatriots.
