Or, why don’t you find another savior?

Sakura shook his hand firmly back and activated her magic circuits to the fullest, operating her magic power to the maximum.

Without a signal to start a war, this army composed of a mixture of chaotic mechanical soldiers and artificial life forms rushed towards this end of the street, as if they wanted to crush the group of people.

The premise is...if it can be crushed.

As two powerful magical powers were released, the Knight King and the Rebellious Knight rushed into the army like two meteors, one red and one black, overturning and tearing apart the mechanical soldiers and artificial life forms from the front.

The approaching battle line came to a standstill.

But this is not a game of servants mowing down the minions, Machiri and his party also launched an attack.

"Do you still remember the magic spell I taught you?" Shiomi asked Sakura with a smile.

"I'm not stupid, of course I remember everything."

"Then, coordinate with my magic frequency, attack together, and cover Lancer and Saber!" Shiomi raised her voice.

The two magic wands crossed, and a rune magic circle with the two of them as the center appeared at their feet. Magic power flowed out from the rune words, rushed in front of the two of them, and was controlled by it.

They chanted the same spell in unison and raised their wands to the sky together.

"Instant Star Judgment!"

Chapter 29 The Devil Appears

Celestial Magic.

Usually, the only people who are good at this type of magic are magicians who studied under the Department of Astronomy, except Animusphia who is in charge of the Department of Astronomy.

Although other magicians have a general understanding of the theory, without years of systematic research, it is difficult for them to demonstrate anything concrete in actual combat.

This is also where Shiomi has always felt that modern magic has flaws.

In contrast, the spells constructed by the original runes can break through the barriers of these types of magic and achieve the miracles required by the caster.

But the Age of Gods had passed after all, and it was hard to find another magus like him.

Therefore, Shiomi always conceals the magic he performs within the scope of conventional types, and then achieves the ultimate in the corresponding type, which are his proud instant magic.

In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed.

Faced with a singularity that holds too many secrets, this is the only chance to access the Magic Association's information when the world is burning and Chaldea is cut off from the outside world.

Then, the most ideal approach is to annihilate the enemy as quickly as possible.

The celestial magic that was unexpected to the three Machili people was the best strategy of catching them by surprise.

Looking at the meteorites falling from the sky, Machili's eyes widened. He knew about Animusphia's celestial magic, and he also knew that large-scale magic required sufficient time to prepare.

A magician with no origin or background can actually do this!

But there is no energy left to think.

Led by the servants Paracelsus and Babbage, they were the first to block the meteorite that was about to fall on their heads.

“Dimension of Steam!”

“Sword of Paracelsus.”

The two treasures were released one after another, shattering the meteorites that were powerful enough to crush them. The fragments scattered and changed their trajectories, landing on the ruins of the museum, as well as the surrounding streets and buildings.

However, the meteorites that could not be intercepted by the Noble Phantasm fell on the army of Chaos mechanical soldiers and artificial life forms, destroying them who had already been scattered by Mordred and Altria.

"Really... if you were going to perform such a big magic trick, you should have told me earlier. It almost hit me and my father on the head, didn't it?" Mordred jumped back in front of Xijian and the others, and complained with a sullen smile.

"Don't worry, as long as you are not an enemy, you won't be hit." Xi Jian said, "With your own intuition, it shouldn't be difficult to avoid the meteorite, right?"

"The Master's magic is truly extraordinary. Even Merlin is not good at this kind of magic." Artoria pierced a nearby mechanical soldier with a gun and used the pierced mechanical soldier as a stone to smash another one.

Shiomi was a little speechless: "I heard that the flower magician is good at not doing anything, but he is unwilling to use even this kind of magic?"

"That bastard is better at providing support than fighting head-on." Mordred kicked away the artificial life form that was rushing towards him.

After a wave of meteorites passed, Shiomi and Sakura put down their wands.

A single great magic destroyed more than half of the miscellaneous soldiers, reducing the combat power ratio between the enemy and our side to a considerable extent, but the three most critical Machiri people were not harmed.

Paracelsus slowly walked towards the end of the road. He raised the magic sword in his hand and fired various elemental magics one after another.

Mixed in with the advancing mechanical soldiers, they have no emotions and do not know fear. Even if they are the only ones left in the battle, they will rush forward according to the existing orders.

This is also the most troublesome part of this army.

If the casualties among ordinary soldiers exceed 10%, the morale of the army will begin to waver, and if the casualties exceed 30%, it will be enough to be said that the army will collapse at the first sign of disaster.

"That guy can perform magic without chanting!?"

Mordred relied on his anti-magic power to resist the magic, and rushed towards Paracelsus as if he were cutting melons and vegetables, but was temporarily suppressed by Babbage who descended from the sky and used brute force.

But we also have Altria here. If the opponent had not lost Jack the Ripper and Mephisto before, they would not be so powerless.

Suddenly, many winged-blade insects flew out from the surrounding magic fog.

Sakura had just finished performing celestial magic with him and needed a moment to catch her breath, so Shiomi raised her hand and flames turned into a wall, surrounding the two of them.

The winged blade insect crashed into the wall of fire and turned into ashes.

"Machili, I'm tired of watching your magic!" Shiomi slowly rose from the ground, hovering in the air, and his magic wand drew a refined arc in front of him.

At this moment, Mordred felt the cobblestone road beneath his feet was shaking, as if there was an earthquake.

Then, countless vines tore through the ground, broke out of the earth, and entangled every mechanical soldier and artificial life form they could touch, but accurately avoided her and Altria's mounts.

The stone pavement suddenly turned into a vine-covered land. Even Babbage, who wanted to continue attacking Mordred, was entangled in the vines that he could not pull away and was forcibly held back, unable to move.

"Lancer, Noble Phantasm!" Shiomi ordered.

Sakura also nodded to Mordred through the flames.

"I am not a king, but a man who follows in the footsteps of a king—" Mordred whispered, raised his sword high, and roared to liberate his true name, "'Rebellion against my magnificent father'!"

As for the true name of this treasure, Altria only glanced at it from a distance, then swept away the enemies in front of her, and the holy spear in her hand began to spin, creating a storm.

"Take it! Thirteen Fangs! 『Gun Shining at the End』!"

The two treasures came from two different directions and crossed each other in the same direction, sweeping away Babbage and Paracelsus on the road.

With their movements restricted, they didn't have enough time to release their Noble Phantasm a second time.

Eventually, the two powerful forces converged at Machiri Zorgen's location, causing a violent explosion. The two magical powers continued as if they were fighting for who was the strongest.

Shiomi saw that the number of winged insects around him gradually decreased until they disappeared completely, then he closed the fire wall that was protecting Sakura.

"Did they finish him off?" Sakura took a step forward, observing the battlefield eagerly.

After being swept away by the Noble Phantasm, the remaining mechanical soldiers and life forms were reduced to ashes.

Thick smoke and magic fog intertwined, making it impossible to see the situation on the battlefield clearly.

Until a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the smoke, exuding an ominous aura.

"I didn't expect you to be so difficult to deal with. It seems that I can only rely on the power of my king to destroy you." Machiri's voice became ethereal, "One of the seventy-two pillars of the devil, the devil Barbatos. This is the existence of my evil."

The smoke cleared, and what stood in the thick fog was no longer Machili, but a giant pillar of flesh covered with countless ominous eyes.

"My king saw through my evil, saw through the ugly evil in my heart while trying to save humanity. With my extreme ugliness, dissipate! People who are like me in the past, pretending to be good people!"

Chapter 30 Barbatos

"Demon God Barbatos?!"

Shiomi looked at the ominous columnar figure and let out a rare exclamation.

"That demon god...could it be..."

After releasing her Noble Phantasm and returning to her Masters, she couldn't help but ask a question.

In the long history of mankind, there are only a handful of beings who can be called demons. The most famous ones are the seventy-two demons under King Solomon.

The demon god Barbatos is the eighth of the seventy-two demon gods.

"A familiar created by the summoning technique of Magic King Solomon." Shiomi stared at the gradually stabilizing posture of the Demon Pillar, "Machiri Zorgen has become a demon... No, it should be called the Demon Pillar."

He felt that the entire London singularity had become weird.

In the Holy Grail War ten years ago, Shiomi and Morgan teamed up to fight the Magic King, and also witnessed the demons summoned by the other side.

Archer, poet, knight, warrior...

The demons that appeared on the battlefield and were repelled by Shiomi with all her might had various postures.

Morgan said that those postures were not the true appearance of the demons.

Therefore, it was hard for Shiomi to believe that the original appearance of the Seventy-two Demon Gods would be what Machiri Zorgen had transformed into.

The atmosphere of ominousness and disaster was fully revealed.

However, on the battlefield, Shiomi did not have much time to think, and he had no energy to ask Romani what was going on.

He could already feel the Demon Pillar's eyes focused on him.

He felt a chill on the back of his neck and instinctively moved to the right, but was still half a step too slow.

A magical laser that was powerful enough to tear an entire head apart passed by, leaving a thin scratch on his left face.

So fast!

Shiomi touched the wound on his face and watched the movements of the Demon Pillar.

Just by staring with those eyes, he could launch an attack from a distance of dozens of meters.

Apparently, Machiri had just transformed into the Demon Pillar and had not yet mastered the use of his new form and power.

Otherwise, this unexpected attack would have been able to blow Shiomi's head off.

As soon as he moved his hand away from the wound, the fresh wound disappeared.

The magic wand passed in front of him, setting up a defensive barrier.

"Ying, you and Mordred hold on, and Lancer and I will test Barbatos' strength." After Shiomi said this, he flashed out, and the place where he was originally floating suddenly exploded.

Sakura on the ground below was not affected because of the existence of the barrier.

Machiri...or rather, Barbatos thought that Shiomi was the most threatening enemy. The pillar's red eyeballs rotated in a terrifying manner as Shiomi moved, with all its focus on Shiomi.

He fell to the ground and ran over the unburned thorns and ashes, his speed getting faster and faster, and explosions gradually bloomed behind him.

Even if Barbatos used dozens of eyes to track without blind spots, he would not be able to keep up with this speed, capture Shiomi and then attack.

What's more, there was a servant galloping on the battlefield.

When his attention was completely attracted by Shiomi, Altria had already arrived in front of him on her horse.

"Crush it!"

The spinning pitch-black holy spear pierced towards the eyes of the Demon Pillar, but was blocked by a shield formed by magic power, emitting a series of sparks and unable to reach the hateful red pupil.

The body of the Demon Pillar is extremely huge, with one of its eyes being as big as two or three people. This huge body looks like a giant pillar supporting the sky and a golden beam bridging the sea.

Barbatos immediately changed his target, all his eyes suddenly flashed, and launched a series of bombardments on Altria.

Even though he was protected against magic, he still suffered a series of attacks head-on, and both he and his horse flew out, rolling on the ground for a few times before stopping.

After all, they are heroic spirits, no matter if they are servants or horses. This level of attack is not enough to be fatal.

Artoria stood up, leading her warhorse, and turned over again, raised her spear and jumped on the horse, looking for the opportunity for the next attack.

It was not a wise choice to be continuously approached by such a servant, so Barbatos launched another attack.

"Where are you looking, Machiri Zorgen?"

Shiomi's voice sounded.

Seeing that attention was turned to him again, Shiomi gave a mocking smile.

"Even if you become an inhuman being, your brain is still human. You can't do two things at the same time and deal with two difficult enemies at the same time."

As soon as he finished speaking, the runes that appeared on the front of the wand rotated and fixed.

The Great Ice Age.

The Demon Pillar's huge body began to freeze from the bottom up, and its squirming body gradually became sluggish. Although it tried hard to shatter the ice, more ice would climb up at a faster speed in the next moment.

The large eyes in front of him were frozen at the moment when they lit up but failed to emit a beam of magic light.
