Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

But for him now, it seems that it is time to have a good day's rest.

This won't be a good thing if it continues, considering that the mirror in his room hasn't been installed yet.

"Emiya?"

Hearing Shi Huaiya's voice coming from the communicator, Emiya immediately abandoned the thoughts in his mind and said:

"This is Emiya."

"Chen and Xingxiong are confronting the target. The other party seems to be escaping. According to the movement trajectory, it is very likely to go to your side. Block the entrance of the manhole cover."

Shi Huaiya spoke very quickly and hung up the phone right after she finished speaking.

"…learn."

Although the other party might not be able to hear him, Emiya still replied.

But... these things should be told to Amiya and the others, right? Rhodes Island is the main force here, right?

Forget it, I guess they are too busy over there. Shi Huaiya is a bit confused now, right?

Or maybe she forgot Rhodes Island's communication channel. Shi Huaiya was quite careless in this regard, otherwise she wouldn't always use drones and loudspeakers to give commands.

She only remembers the contact information of people who are worth remembering.

"Scout, I'll leave the reconnaissance to you. I'll go down and meet up with Amiya and the others."

Quickly switching channels, Emiya quickly explained the situation to Scout, and then jumped down from above.

The height was not high, so Emiya landed safely without even using his magic costume.

"What happened?"

Seeing Emiya suddenly take action, the people from Rhodes Island also perked up. Ace and Razer immediately asked about the current situation.

"Sir Shi Huaiya just contacted me and said that the prisoner is moving and coming in our direction. Let us prepare."

Emiya, who had entered working mode, had no intention of talking nonsense and directly repeated to the others what Shi Huaiya had just said to him.

"Understood. Please ask Miss Jessica and Miss Vanilla to come back as soon as possible and the others to be ready to fight at any time."

After confirming the current situation, Amiya began to gather the team members to prepare for the battle.

And Emiya was not idle either. He placed his right hand on the ground and used analysis magic to sense the movement below.

It was very empty down there, and there were faint vibrations, probably because someone was running or fighting inside.

Looking at the unknown patterns flashing on Emiya's right hand, the few people were smart enough not to go forward to disturb Emiya, and even their voices became much softer.

The scene was very quiet, with only the occasional crackling sound coming from Emiya's right hand.

"Here we are, about five of us, keep an eye out."

Feeling that someone was climbing up the ladder, Emiya spoke up to give a hint and also told the number of people he sensed.

"Kitty, can you sense it?"

Hearing Emiya's words, Huang immediately turned his head and looked at Rosemary who was behind everyone.

"It's not very clear, but someone is definitely coming up."

Rosemary replied with a drop of sweat on her forehead.

Even though he didn't fight back, using Originium techniques like this was still very energy-consuming.

“…It’s really convenient to work with Emiya. Emiya almost handles most of the work by himself.”

After listening to Rosemary's words, Huang sighed.

Please have more teammates like this, so that she can just focus on killing people.

"After all, a person's energy is limited, so unless it is absolutely necessary, team action is a must. And Razer, you step back. I will engage the enemy first."

Raising the shield in his hand to his chest, Ace walked forward while speaking, protecting everyone behind him.

At the same time, the hammer in his right hand was ready to strike.

Just as he said, a person's energy is limited, so team action is necessary, and he is the heavy armor of the team. He must block all attacks and dangers on himself so that others can attack without worries.

Razer on the side silently retreated to the side, forming a protective net with Ace, one in front and one behind, one on the left and one on the right.

Soon, there was movement in the sewer cover.

I saw the manhole cover being pushed open, and then a man who looked very embarrassed crawled out from it, gasping for breath, and cursing a few words at the same time.

"How did this damn Guard know that we were trading here? Shouldn't they have been killed? Or is there a traitor?"

As the man kept cursing, he realized something was wrong.

Why is it a little dark around here? No... this seems to be a human shadow?

Slowly raising his head, the man saw a shield gradually getting bigger until he heard a loud bang.

Then he couldn't see anything.

Huang, who was standing by, saw Ace knock someone out, and immediately stepped forward to pull the person out without making any sound.

And Ace was already crouching down with one person.

"..."

His right hand was still using analyzing magic to sense the movements below. Seeing how skilled the two were, and the others seemed to be used to it, Emiya began to wonder if he should send these people to the Guards Bureau first.

Isn't this too skilled? How many times have you gone through this process? You can cooperate so smoothly without even talking to each other?

Although he had a lot of questions in his mind, Emiya still didn't take any action.

"Hello? Where are the people? What is this guy Lao Zhang doing?"

After the man was dragged away, a man's voice was heard from the other side of the manhole cover.

However, the slight pause in the middle made Emiya a little concerned.

The tone of voice before and after doesn't seem to match... It's like he's trying to confuse others.

There is no doubt who is confused. It must be those who are present.

Then there is only one answer.

"Notice!"

As if in response to Emiya's thoughts, a canned unidentified object was thrown up from the manhole cover.

At this moment, Emiya only felt that the passage of time was slowing down.

The canned object was also rotating slowly in the air.

Even without using analysis, Emiya knew what it was. After all, the Guards Bureau often used it during attack.

That's a smoke screen.

Although the lethality is not high, it will still be somewhat uncomfortable if the smoke spreads.

But Emiya didn't want to gamble. What if the other party added something else?

If the poisonous fog spreads here...

Before Emiya could think any more, his body was already moving.

"Emiya?"

Seeing Emiya suddenly rushing forward, Rosemary called out his name in confusion.

However, Emiya did not respond. Instead, he jumped up and grabbed Ace's shoulders in front of the manhole cover, and spun around in the air using Ace as the force point.

At the same time, he exerted force with his feet and kicked the smoke bomb back.

He let go of his hands and followed the direction of the force, and Emiya fell down with him.

It wasn't a mistake, it was deliberate.

From what he sensed just now, several people should be on the stairs, so if he goes down like this, if nothing unexpected happens... he can catch them all in one fell swoop.

However, the risk of doing so is actually quite high, and the same effect will be achieved if the Guards surround them from below.

It’s just that Emiya didn’t want to gamble whether the other party had anything other than smoke bombs.

After all, since he is a person who can even obtain a large amount of explosives, it is normal for him to carry some explosives on him, right?

The safest approach is to take decisive action.

A faint blue light emanated from his body, and Emiya's Imperial Guard combat uniform was instantly replaced by a magic ceremonial costume.

Then he used all his strength and stomped down hard on the hand of the person at the top who was holding the ladder with his right foot.

The strange feeling coming from the soles of his feet did not make Emiya intend to stop, he just continued to kick the opponent away in the opposite direction of the ladder with his left foot.

Since the opponent had lost his grip, Emiya didn't have to use much effort to push him down.

At the same time, because the space here is not large, when the first person falls down, he naturally pushes the second, third and fourth people down.

"...?"

Below, a team from the Guard Bureau led by Chen and Xingxiong were chasing these people.

The other party chose this place because they had naturally studied the route carefully, so they managed to shake off the pursuit of the Guards for a while.

Only with the help of instruments did the Guards find the opponent's trace and catch up.

It was supposed to be like this...

But the layers of screams were so loud, so loud that everyone knew where the people were just by hearing them.

After turning a corner, Chen saw several people stacked below and a lot of smoke. Then a red figure jumped down from above and landed steadily on the bodies of several people.

"Ah? Sir Chen? I've already dealt with everything here, but there's still one person knocked unconscious up there."

After landing, Emiya held his breath and walked out of the smoke circle, then saw Chen Sir and Hoshiguma with complicated expressions.

"I say, Emiya... you didn't just throw them down from up there, did you?"

Thinking about the screams just now, Xingxiong felt that he had pieced together the scene just now.

The people of Rhodes Island took Emiya and threw people down from above...

Didn't you expect that Emiya would be led astray like this?

It seems that we can't let Emiya get close to the pharmaceutical company called Rhodes Island!

"Hmm? Throw it down? I guess... no? I just kicked the one on top down."

After hearing what Hoshiguma said, Emiya thought about it for a moment.

He didn't throw these people down from above, he kicked them down, so there's no problem!

"Isn't that even worse?"

Looking at Emiya who seemed to be explaining seriously, Hoshiguma complained.

It's not that I mean to blame Emiya, but the screams just now and the people piled on the ground were really impressive.

This is what these people deserve, but Hoshiguma doesn't want Emiya to get used to doing this.

Strictly speaking, this is already considered lynching.

"Emiya! Can you please say something before you take action? Ahem…"

Just as several people were talking, another voice came from behind.

Then Huang fell on the four people again. Unlike Emiya who landed gently, Huang's landing posture was obviously more violent.

If it landed like this on land, it would probably stir up a lot of dust, right?

But landed here...

Emiya seemed to hear the sound of bones dislocating just now.

Well, just pretend you didn’t hear it.

"Aren't you worried that the smoke bomb is poisonous? The situation is urgent and of course we can't care so much."

Seeing Kirara jump down, Emiya explained.

At the same time, Chen and Xingxiong roughly understood the cause of the incident.

Maybe these guys threw a smoke bomb from the ditch and were stopped by Emiya?

In that case it's not so bad, he just used heavier force in self-defense.
