I'm really not an old sword

Could it be possible to exert such great strength just by grabbing the smooth surface of the shield?

What kind of monster is he?

If Roman were here, he would be able to see through Lin Qingsu's method at a glance. He would use magic power to form invisible threads to grab the shield and then exert force.

'Boom! '

In a moment of distraction, Mashu was smashed into the sand along with her shield.

"Mashu?!"

Yellow sand flew all over the sky.

The sound of footsteps on sand could be heard through the smoke and dust, and Fujimaru Ritsuka clenched his fists tightly.

Lin Qingsu came out, looked at her and smiled slightly, saying, "You're next."

The next moment, a shadow jumped out of the sand mist behind him, raised a shield-like shadow and smashed it down on the back of his head.

Fujimaru Ritsuka held his breath.

Lin Qingsu suddenly turned around and kicked out sideways.

'Boom! '

Mashu suffered a heavy blow to the abdomen and flew backwards for more than ten meters before sliding on the sand for several meters before stopping.

"Mashu?!" Ritsuka Fujimaru hurried over.

"I'm fine, Master."

Mashu coughed a few times in pain, and while enduring the severe pain as if her intestines were tied up, she managed to stand up and stand in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

Looking at this scene of deep sisterly love, Lin Qingsu walked over neither fast nor slow.

"When you jump and attack, you sacrifice speed and defense for greater power."

"Even though you knew you couldn't match my strength, you should have changed your fighting style and fought close to the ground to test my speed."

"Don't you even understand this?"

Mashu rushed forward again without saying a word.

This time, he didn't have the fluke mentality of wanting to kill Lin Qingsu with one all-out attack.

He slashed at Lin Qingsu with the sharp side of the shield.

Lin Qingsu raised her hand, held the Holy Sword of the Star in her hand and raised the sword to block.

The sound of metal clashing was heard several times, and in the blink of an eye, the sword and shield clashed more than ten times.

"The speed is good."

As Lin Qingsu spoke, she tightened her sword-holding hand slightly.

“But it’s only good.”

'Bah! '

Mashu flew backwards again.

Start again.

Once, twice, until Fujimaru Ritsuka's forehead was covered with sweat and his body was staggering and he could hardly stand.

Mashu tried to stand several times but eventually fell down.

Both Mashu's physical strength and Fujimaru Ritsuka's magic power have been exhausted, and they have been beaten to the point where they have no magic power to resist at all.

And less than three minutes had passed!

"Perseverance is commendable, but courage alone won't accomplish anything."

Lin Qingsu said this and walked towards Fujimaru Ritsuka again.

Raise the sword.

But he suddenly turned around and slashed towards the east.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was startled, and then he heard a scream of pain. He looked closely and saw Da Vinci lying on the ground, his life or death unknown.

Completely in despair.

With just one sword, Leonardo da Vinci, who was planning a sneak attack, was seriously injured and fell into unconsciousness?

"Hey, Ritsuka, before I kill you, I still want to ask you one thing."

Fujimaru Ritsuka pursed his lips and said 'hmm'.

Although she was forced into a desperate situation, and although her best friends Matthew and Da Vinci were seriously injured by him.

But what he did was not irritating.

Above board.

"I still say the same thing. I admire your character, your courage, and your perseverance."

"All you lack is time."

"You were just born at the wrong time."

Lin Qingsu raised her left hand to her, palm facing upwards, and said, "Join me and create a new world with me."

"To create an everlasting empire."

"To create a world where everyone has enough food and clothing, where there is no war, and where anyone can succeed through hard work."

Fujimaru Ritsuka lowered his head and remained silent.

"What's your answer?"

As long as she agreed to him, she could live.

No matter what you think.

If she agreed now, she could change her mind and defect later, or she could pretend to surrender in order to save humanity. But if she didn't agree, she would definitely die today.

but...

Fujimaru Ritsuka shook his head: "Sorry."

"No need to apologize. We are enemies, not friends. You don't need to apologize to me."

Lin Qingsu said this with a smile and raised her sword.

"Well, goodbye, Fujimaru Ritsuka."

Look at the starlight shining on the sword.

Fujimaru Ritsuka clenched his fists tightly.

She didn't want to just wait for death, but her magic power and physical strength had been completely exhausted in the past three minutes of being tortured, and she could barely stand.

Are you really going to die?

"Wait, there's a violent magical fluctuation above!" Roman's surprised voice came.

Ritsuka Fujimaru raised his head subconsciously.

A huge light cannon with a radius of one meter hit the defenseless Lin Qingsu.

'boom! ’

Ritsuka Fujimaru was blown far away by the aftermath of the explosion.

He fell heavily to the ground, but he got up and found Mashu to confirm that it was okay before he looked up at the sky.

A huge pyramid temple appeared above them, blocking out the sky and the sun.

Under the sun, a blue figure landed beside her, and the wind and waves it created caught Fujimaru Ritsuka off guard, causing him to eat a mouthful of sand.

"Hey, are you okay?" A frivolous and cheerful male voice sounded from beside me.

"C...cough cough cough, Cu Chulainn?!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka shielded his eyes with one hand and covered his mouth with the other, crying as he asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"That Ashiya guy said he would definitely kill you, so we've been waiting nearby. We just arrived..."

"Ashiya?"

The smile froze on Cu Chulainn's face, and Fujimaru Ritsuka's body also froze.

The two of them turned around slowly.

In the dissipating dust and fog, a pale silver figure was standing intact in the huge deep pit bombarded by the light cannon, looking at them with a smile.

"I always felt like there was a bug sneaking around in the dark, and it turned out to be him."

Chapter 27 Scathach

"How can it be?!"

"The energy level of that energy cannon is enough to vaporize even an aircraft carrier fleet."

"How can he be fine after taking a bullet?"

Fujimaru Ritsuka stared blankly at Lin Qingsu lying in the ruins.

He collapsed on the ground powerlessly.

Her physical and magical powers were all exhausted, and she was blown away by the aftermath of the explosion and smashed into the sand several times. Her physical and mental fatigue had reached the limit. The fact that she did not faint was a result of her extremely strong will.

Cu Chulainn held the gun and stood in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.

However, Lin Qingsu only glanced at him briefly, then looked up at the temple in the sky with an uninterested look.

"You are the only one

Cu Chulainn: “???”

Fujimaru Ritsuka: "???"

Mash & Da Vinci: “???”

How come we are not considered human beings, right?

Just because you are capable, you are great?

This is too much!

The temple in the sky was silent, and what responded to him were several huge shadows falling from the sky one after another.

Several sphinxes surrounded Lin Qingsu.

"That's it?"

The giant beasts roared and rushed forward, biting Lin Qingsu with their sharp teeth that gleamed with cold light.

He raised his sword and swung it.

The crescent-shaped sword light swept past Lin Qingsu and passed over the huge bodies of the beasts.

The ferocious and huge monsters were frozen in their charge.

Then, it collapsed.

Dozens of cannons in the sky that had been aimed at Lin Qingsu opened fire at the same time, and the power of each shot was comparable to the full force of a Heroic Spirit's Noble Phantasm.

Lin Qingsu rushed towards Fujimaru Ritsuka under the heavy artillery fire.

It was difficult for him to kill Ramses II.

As long as the temple is not destroyed, he will not be destroyed. Unless his huge temple is destroyed in one blow, he will be immortal.

But at the same time, as long as he didn't go into the temple to deliver, it would be even more impossible for Ramses II, a long-range mage, to kill him. If he wanted to kill others, Ramses II would not be able to stop him at all. And because he and Longomeniades both had the means to destroy his temple, Ramses II could not bombard the holy city like he did in the Battle of Tokyo.

If he dared to attack, Longominiard would shoot him and the temple in half, vaporizing them all.

"Fuck, is this a monster?"

Cu Chulainn watched helplessly as a beam of light hit Lin Qingsu's waist.

As a result, he was only knocked half a meter away. In less than half a second, he quickly adjusted his body and rushed towards them at a faster speed as if nothing had happened.

The closer they got to Fujimaru Ritsuka, the lower the density of the artillery fire became.
