It's normal for an evil god to raise an Abyss.

Abigail's originally clear blue pupils have now turned into an ominous blood red.

In fact, Bazette's judgment was not wrong. Even if Abigail was not Caster, she was indeed not a Heroic Spirit who was good at close combat. After all, she was just a little girl, and her Noble Phantasm was the type that could launch mental attacks on people.

However, Abigail’s information is recorded as “data” on the Throne of Heroes.

If Abigail had just been summoned, she would have been seriously injured by Bazette's punch.

But Abigail has been in this world for ten years, and these ten years are enough for many changes to occur, such as -

Whether it was Xueyue, Paopao or Nyako, they all conveyed a message to Abigail: no matter how powerful your magic is, you cannot fall behind in close combat!

Sister Xue, Lord God, Lord Naya, each of these three can easily crush me in terms of spell output, and they are also quite good in close combat, how can I only know long-range spells? !

With this idea in mind, Abigail asked Xueyue for guidance many times, but Xueyue did not directly teach her many moves. Instead, she asked her to start from the basics. After a few years, Abigail only learned some basic moves.

However, Abigail did not think that Xueyue was unwilling to teach. Sister Xue was not that kind of person. At the beginning of the training, Sister Xue made it clear that the core of the technology was to control one's own strength. Only by starting from the basics could one learn well.

Therefore, Abigail just felt that her comprehension was not good enough and she learned too slowly. Even so, Abigail was already very satisfied, at least she could face some raids like this.

Bazett, whose sudden attack was blocked, was surprised and had a bad premonition.

Chapter 171: Sword of Reverse Light

C呆.jpg

According to Bazette's original idea, he would start with a surprise attack, and then incapacitate Berserker's Master in the last few moves, so that Berserker could naturally be dealt with more easily.

But things turned out to be the opposite of what she expected, and the battle between her and Abigail began to become stalemate.

From Abigail's point of view, Bazett's fighting skills are far superior to hers, and he is worthy of being an executor who specializes in hunting down magicians, while Abigail has only learned a few tricks. However, Abigail's own physical fitness is far better than Bazett's. The combination of B-level strength and A+ level endurance creates a "big brick flying" effect, which is enough to suppress Bazett, who has a human body.

Abigail thought her fighting skills were mediocre, but in Bazette's eyes, that was not the case. Although her skills were indeed a bit immature, the movements of this little girl in front of him were not like those of the person who had no rules. Her fighting foundation had been formed, but she had not yet delved deeply into the routines. Judging from this point of view, she was definitely not able to achieve that level through self-study.

Because people who teach themselves are usually satisfied with gorgeous moves and ignore the boring and lengthy basic training. What such guys practice can only be called "flowery moves" and have no practical value. The little girl in front of him is just the opposite, which means that she must have a master who is proficient in martial arts to guide her.

And this "master" is most likely Xue Yue who is waiting at the top of the snow mountain.

This made Bazette temporarily give up the idea of ​​quickly dealing with his opponent, and instead take a steady approach to avoid being directly breached by the opponent's force.

After several rounds of fighting, Bazette and Abigail threw their right fists at the same time. Their fists collided and the recoil pushed them back.

"My Father God, please bestow your grace, clear away the obstacles on my way, and open up a path for me—"

Abigail began to chant the spell, and the magical reaction in her body gradually increased.

Needless to say, the other party must be preparing to release a Noble Phantasm. Bazette made this judgment easily.

Bazett's choice was not to avoid the attack temporarily, but to rush towards Abigail who was chanting. Next to his right fist that was about to be swung, there was a sphere floating, and the front end of the sphere was gradually forming the shape of a dagger.

“——【Pathbreaker’s Hammer】!”

Abigail declared loudly, and an invisible pressure surged towards Bazett.

Bazette swung his right fist, along with the strange dagger floating next to his right fist.

As a result of the collision, Bazette collided head-on with the invisible force, and the light ball in her right hand was shattered. She flew backwards as if she had been hit in the chest by a sledgehammer. Although it was not fatal, it was enough to make her lose the ability to resist for a short time.

What lingered in Bazett's mind was only astonishment and confusion, because his weapon did not achieve the expected effect.

That somewhat peculiar weapon is the [Sword of the God of War] (Fragarach), also known as the Sword of Backlight. It is a rare existing treasure with a powerful effect. Once it is activated, it will definitely hit the opponent before it.

Because this treasure can also distort cause and effect and change its own attack to absolute priority, since the defeated party has no chance to counterattack, so to a certain extent, this sword can cancel the opponent's attack, it can be said to be the ultimate counterattack equipment.

However, there is a prerequisite for the activation of this treasure, that is, the opponent must activate the [Trump Card] before the corresponding effect will be awakened.

And the [Backlight Sword] just now obviously did not trigger any additional effects. It was only equivalent to a treasure of less than C level being shattered directly. It also shows that the opponent definitely did not use the [Trump Card] just now. In other words, the opponent has a stronger killing move than that one, so the attack just now was not judged as the [Trump Card].

"I lost……"

After figuring out the reason, Bazette could only smile bitterly and frankly admitted his failure.

At the same time, the battle between Berserker and Lancer on the other side also ended with a winner.

The answer is, no one wins and no one loses.

The spiral sword and Gae Bolg pierced the opponent's chest at the same time, and Nightingale and Cu Chulainn's bodies gradually turned into light and disappeared.

As the two Servants disappeared, the Command Seals on Abigail and Bazette's hands also dissipated.

There was no regret for the disappearance of the two Servants. After all, they had fought to their heart's content and there was nothing to regret.

Abigail walked slowly toward Bazett.

(Are you going to end your life...?)

Bazette thought silently and closed his eyes.

The expected pain did not come, but instead a warm current replaced it.

Bazett opened his eyes slightly and saw Abigail squatting down and casting healing magic on him.

"Healing the enemy? I really don't understand you guys anymore..."

Bazette smiled bitterly.

"You are the ones who are confused. We never said we were going to kill anyone."

Abigail pouted.

“Is that so…?”

He didn't think about the reason. This was not something Bazette was good at. Since he had lost, he might as well rest aside as a wounded soldier.

-------------------------------------

On the other side, everyone was charging towards the top of the mountain.

The heavy snow and wind did not hinder the crowd's progress, and this time the staircase to heaven did not turn into an endless road.

In just over ten minutes, everyone saw the top of the mountain.

"call……"

After reaching the top of the mountain breathlessly, the palace that seemed to be made of ice and snow appeared before everyone.

Except for Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu who had already seen it, the rest of the people couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

But before they could exclaim, everyone's eyes were focused on one place.

In front of the palace, there was a white plastic chair, on which a white-haired girl was sitting with her back to the crowd.

No matter how you look at it, the appearance of plastic chairs in this place is somewhat incongruous, but for some reason it seemed as if a burst of exciting music was ringing in everyone's ears.

Even with her back to the crowd, Xueyue was able to sense their arrival.

Standing up from the chair and letting the plastic chair gradually sink into the shadow, Xueyue turned her head to look at everyone without saying a word.

"..."

Chapter 172 Frozen World

Unlike the last time she met Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, Xueyue's silent expression turned into a sense of oppression that was almost tangible.

"..."

The snowstorm in the sky rolled and swirled down like a funnel, gathering in Xueyue's empty right hand, and in a moment it condensed into a sword made of ice.

"It's you... What on earth are you going to do, Xueyue!"

Saber asked in a somewhat vehement tone.

"Let me try the knife first..."

Xueyue pointed the tip of her sword at everyone, and her meaning was clear.

"Is it true that we can't communicate properly without a fight?"

As Toosaka Rin said this, she took out several gems from her pocket and threw them towards Xueyue.

Xueyue just waved her sword lightly, and the thrown gems were frozen into lumps of ice before they could have any miraculous effect.

"Don't underestimate gem magic!"

Toosaka Rin shouted, detonating the gem prematurely.

The gem exploded inside, shattering the ice on the outside. For a moment, the scene was filled with blurry mist, blocking the vision of both sides.

This was exactly what Toosaka Rin expected. She turned around and said to the others:

"Use this time to prepare for the attack. Now we can only subdue the other party first and then question him!"

Saber nodded. She had some idea of ​​Xueyue's strength. If she wanted to subdue her, she would have to release her treasure to have a chance to injure her.

"Rin, I need to release my Noble Phantasm."

"permit!"

After receiving the Master's confirmation, the Wind King barrier on Saber's sword was lifted, and light began to gather on the blade.

Shirou Emiya on the side was also not idle. If the opponent used ice-attribute attacks, then this would be an advantageous terrain for the opponent, and he had to activate the inherent barrier to temporarily replace it.

And I do have my own inherent barrier.

Shirou Emiya thought of the figure of the red archer. Since he could do it, there was no reason why he couldn't do it!

Emiya Shirou slowly chanted the spell:

"【Born as a Sword】"

"[Blood like steel, heart like glass]"

"【Fighting countless battlefields without being defeated】"

“[I don’t know what I have lost, nor what I have gained]”

"[From now on I am alone]"

"【Forge the sword on the sword hill】"

“[Therefore, this life does not need any meaning]”

"[This body was created by the Infinite Sword!]"

The reality was eroded and subverted, revealing a red wilderness with countless swords stuck in the ground and the sky dyed red.

The sword stuck in the ground was pulled out of the ground as Emiya Shirou wished, piercing through the mist and away.

At the same time, Saber's [Sword of Promised Victory] was released, and a torrent of light rushed straight towards Xueyue.

After the torrent of light swept through, what everyone saw was a khaki-colored city wall that appeared as a phantom.

“Not strong enough.”

Xueyue made a brief evaluation and clenched her hands in the air.

Pale golden ripples covered half the sky, and there were more than a hundred of them at a casual count.

And emerging from the ripples were all kinds of weapons.

"Isn't this a foul... These are... all Noble Phantasms?!"

Toosaka Rin was already extremely shocked.

Xueyue gently waved her hand downwards, and weapons shot down from the sky like a golden rain.

Shirou Emiya gritted his teeth and needed to operate hundreds of swords to fight back at the same time. Even within the [Infinite Sword Works], it was very difficult for him who was not proficient enough.

"【Lord Camelot】!"

Mashu unfolded the Wall of Chalk and finally blocked out the Noble Phantasm that Shirou Emiya was unable to block.

Before the smoke and dust from the collision of the Noble Phantasm with the wall of Camelot could dissipate, Shirou Emiya and Saber rushed out with [Sevenfold Rings of Blazing Heaven] and headed straight for Xueyue.

On one side is the fake Gan Jiang and Moye, and on the other side is the Broken Steel Holy Sword. The double attack is enough to make it impossible for ordinary heroes to stop it.

"But, unfortunately, I'm not the guy who's not good at close combat."

Xueyue used the ice sword at a strange angle to block the almost simultaneous attacks. Although it could only block them for a few tenths of a second, it was enough.

Xueyue's left hand had already grasped the Sword of Fire. She swung it backhand, and the raging flames that burned the world were enough to force the two of them back with just the aftermath.

After all this trouble, perhaps the time to maintain it has come, and Shirou Emiya can no longer support the Infinite Sword System.
