Chapter 490: After the Torture, Return

Matou Shinji?

How come he is here?

Ever since Sakura was abducted by me, and her servant, Matou Shinji's only guard Rider, was tricked into becoming an employee by me, this scumbag has gradually faded out of our sight, which doesn't mean we can keep him safe from now on. , but excludes him from the circle of the Holy Grail War. A useless person who has lost the only servant he can call and has no magic talent himself is really not a character worthy of attention. In my impression, such a useless person The little miscellaneous fish should have suddenly flashed a scene when the music was playing in the behind-the-scenes footage. He screamed for two seconds while being beaten by the passing gangsters A, B, and C, and then was mercilessly labeled "Shinji Matou"—— "Extra" is the right name, or if I'm in a good mood, I can arrange a silhouette for you to die alone on a street corner in the city n years later, but I never expected that Shinji Matou, who should have been eliminated, would appear like this. There is even this suspicious complacency before our eyes.

Hey, don’t tell me that this bastard met a worldly master disguised as a beggar when he went out to buy porn the day before yesterday. He was taught the "Fist of the North Star" book and even let the T-virus open up the Ren and Du's second pulse! That would make me die laughing!

"Shenji, you haven't answered my question yet, why are you here?"

Emiya clenched his fists and stared closely at the person in front of him. The person suddenly appeared here at this time. The strangeness of the matter made him gradually increase his vigilance.

"Oh, Emiya, you are really rude to your friends," the blue-haired boy sighed in a false voice, "I was waiting for you here yesterday, but it's a pity that you, a lucky guy, actually I have already hid in the house of that Tosaka woman. I originally planned to kill all the people here today and then go to the Tosaka house and capture you and that abominable Tosaka. I didn’t expect that you would take the initiative to come to the door. Come on, you are truly my friend."

"Have you taken action against ordinary people here?!"

Emiya's voice suddenly became cold. At the same time, Arturia also took a step forward, making a posture ready to attack at any time.

Shinji Matou seemed not to see such a threat, and just smiled contemptuously: "Humph, it's really boring hypocrisy, but don't worry, they just fell asleep. Now you should still care about yourself! Although I don't know you How did you hide that bitch Sakura and the traitor Rider? But if I kill you, they will definitely appear..."

"Saber!"

"learn!"

The blond girl suddenly waved the invisible sword in her hand, and her whole body turned into a stream of silver light, shooting towards the enemy in front of her like lightning. Although she didn't know what kind of support the opponent had to rely on to be so fearless, she allowed the opponent to delay. Time was obviously not a good idea, so at Emiya's signal, Arturia launched a surprise attack.

But in the face of such a sprint that was far beyond what humans could resist, Shinji Matou, who was originally afraid of life and death, did not show any panic at all, but showed a proud smile.

"Drink!" The tall figure suddenly appeared in the air and blocked Arturia without any warning. Facing the fatal blow from the King of Knights, the figure not only did not dodge, but instead waved the spear in his hand vigorously. The attack was launched in a completely lifeless manner.

"Crack!" There was a crisp sound. Of course, the black spear failed to cause any harm to Arturia. With just a slight swing of the sword, the spear was cut in two by the invisible sword, and the tall figure blocking Saber was also next. He was instantly hit head-on by the King of Knights' charge, and he took a dozen steps back before barely stopping in front of Matou Shinji.

After just one second of confrontation, the huge gap in strength was clearly revealed.

"Heroic spirit? Lancer?" Even though she had the upper hand in one round, Saber still cautiously held the holy sword tightly and stared at the enemy in front of her.

It was a strong man with a height of 1.8 meters, but three-fifths of his face was covered by a tall helmet with red tassels, making it impossible to see his appearance, and the style of the helmet looked... A bit...well, I didn't notice it. The opponent was wearing full-body armor. There were no iconic patterns on the armor. It looked like some kind of standard equipment for ordinary soldiers in the ancient army. On his left hand, he was wearing a metal and leather-wrapped The large oval shield is covered with deep and shallow marks of swords and axes. It has obviously been with this warrior from birth to death for countless years.

Such equipment does not look like a spearman with super agility and fighting ability, but like an ordinary ancient infantry, but the weapon he uses is indeed a spear. It is no wonder that Saber confirmed the identity of the opponent. He would use that confused and hesitant tone.

The weapon in his hand was destroyed, leaving only half of the gun body. The heroic spirit in plate armor did not panic at all. He calmly threw away the weapon in his hand, and then grabbed a seven-foot-long gun from the air. metal javelin, ready for fighting.

"Excellent soldier," Arturia, who had led the army for many years, did not hesitate to praise the calm soldier in front of him, "but as a heroic spirit, he is too weak."

Yes, although there is sufficient combat awareness and bravery, it is an indisputable fact that the energy intensity of this infantry hero is far inferior to that of Saber. Just the moment of contact just now, his weapon was cut off by a sword and He was knocked back nearly ten meters. If Matou Shinji relied on such a heroic spirit, it can only be said that his brain has been occupied by Wang Zhi and fermented bean curd.

The infantry hero who was completely wrapped in plate armor held the javelin in his hand tightly and moved cautiously around Saber. Then, he suddenly raised his right hand and threw the seven-foot-long heavy javelin over!

Saber was a little surprised that the enemy suddenly turned into a long-range attack, but she reacted immediately and raised her sword to knock away the javelin that came at lightning speed. Then she exerted force under her feet and rushed towards the enemy, who also pulled out from her waist at this moment. A simple dagger, using decent soldier fighting skills to fight against the menacing blond girl.

Standard ancient elite infantry tactics, throwing, fighting, and blocking are all the most basic soldier combat skills. They are simple and unpretentious, and their power cannot be compared with the sure-kill moves of those great heroes. It is just such simple movements that have been honed for thousands of years. After many times, they developed fighting instincts, and then relied on a variety of fighting methods to fight against the enemy. The nameless infantry heroes, who did not even have noble phantoms or special skills, used such ordinary tactics to fight against the prestigious King of Knights. The result Naturally, it was obvious. After only a few rounds of confrontation, Saber once again chopped away the weapon in the opponent's hand. The next second, the thick oval shield was split into two by the invisible holy sword. The next moment - Saber The pursuit of victory was interrupted by another javelin that suddenly attacked.

"Whoosh!" With the sharp sound of wind, the black javelin flew past the blonde girl's hair and penetrated deeply into the ground. Then, more sounds of piercing the air came from all directions, and I suddenly Zi remembered what Ilya said:

"...Just by escaping with Ilya...berserker was seriously injured by a gun..."

Could it be that the one who destroyed Einzbern was this weird infantry hero?

As if to confirm my conjecture, with the fluctuations of energy condensation, figures gradually emerged from the surrounding night. Tall and strong infantrymen with full plate armor, holding large oval shields and javelins were among them. Tong Shenji's true appearance was revealed in his proud laughter. Although there were slight differences in body shape and armor details, these infantrymen could still tell at a glance that they belonged to the same army. They marched neatly and cautiously, from The infantrymen rushing up from all directions had surrounded all retreats in an instant. Revealed from under the heavy helmets were a pair of calm and courageous eyes stained with endless blood. These infantrymen held heavy shields covered with scars from swords and axes in their hands. He raised it in front of him, and then simultaneously raised the javelin in his right hand.

"Now, as long as I give the order, you will all die without a burial place."

Matou Shinji triumphantly hid behind the two tall infantrymen. The absolute advantage in numbers made him feel that he had a chance to win. "Huh, I have said long ago that since we have such a trump card, we should use destructive tactics to defeat the enemy." It’s better to catch all other magicians in one fell swoop. That old man is still timidly worrying that others have mastered similar trump cards. It’s really embarrassing... Hey! Emiya, how are you? Isn’t it a good feeling to feel hopeless?”

"Saber, this is..." Emiya's face was also covered with cold sweat. The feeling of being surrounded by hundreds of heroic spirits was not so good. At this moment, Saber was holding her weapon and looking around cautiously. These besieging enemies There is no doubt that the aura on his body is that of a heroic spirit, but what is the reason for this terrifying amount? In other words, what kind of perverted magician can support the magic supply of so many heroic spirits at the same time?

The strength of the infantry heroic spirit just now has been proven in the battle. In a frontal battle, he could not even withstand the ten moves of the King of Knights. But when he was surrounded by two hundred heroic spirits of this level, the qualitative change caused by the quantitative change was enough to reverse everything. The same heroic spirit, No matter how strong Saber is, she can't close the gap between heroic spirits and ordinary people with these infantry. Knowing this, the girl turns her sights for help to Alien A and Alien who have been pretending to be onlookers from the beginning to the end. Person B.

Hey, you should be working hard at this time, right?

Such information was beeping from Arturia's hairy antenna, echoing in my mind. It seemed that it was no longer appropriate to continue watching this situation.

Because we have become the object of being watched...

There are about two hundred infantry heroic spirits, whose strength is about one-fifth of ordinary heroic spirits. With tacit cooperation and well-trained training, they can achieve the effect of defeating powerful heroic spirits through numerical cooperation. It is almost certain that the mysterious enemy who secretly spied on Emiya's house that night It should be one of these guys, and the destruction of Einzbern by the Heroic Spirit Army as Ilya said should also be their work. Although I don’t know how the Matou family successfully opened such a heaven-defying plug-in, this is different from the existing The phenomenon of incompatible world rules is undoubtedly related to the distortion of the fate world.

"Ha, a mere ordinary person is actually quite brave." Seeing me walking towards him, Matou Shinji couldn't help but take a half step back, but then he burst out laughing, "You should still be confused about what happened in front of you. You’re at a loss…what?!”

Just a casual pat, just like patting someone on the shoulder when greeting someone I know. I lightly patted an infantry hero who was standing up to block him, and the latter instantly exploded into a ball of bright energy sparks. .

Can the energy body fight against me?

"Wow! Arjun is great! Come on Arjun!" Such a purely confusing voice came from behind, which made me unsteady on my feet and almost threw me on the street. Sandra, this girl, is too lazy to take action. At least you will be honest with me. Act as the audience!

"Puff", "Puff", "Puff", a continuous soft muffled sound sounded uninterrupted. At first, I was quite interested in killing the infantry heroes one by one, but when the other party took the initiative to organize an attack, I even joined forces. I was too lazy to move, so I simply stood there and let them attack. Every heroic spirit or javelin thrown by them would be affected by the energy disintegration field when it came close to me, and exploded into a bright flame. For a moment, the Emiya residence seemed to be It's like setting off fireworks.

I was under a lot of pressure as a fireworker.

"This... this is impossible!" It was an old-fashioned line, but Shinji Matou still shouted it out, which made him feel that the two hundred heroic troops with the upper hand were like this when facing the strange "ordinary person" in front of them. It simply turned into fireworks. The strangeness of the situation and the fear of imminent defeat made him exclaim, even with a faint cry: "Stop! You idiots, stop! Stop!"

The attack stopped. About fifty infantry heroes had disintegrated under the influence of the force field, but the remaining more than a hundred people still maintained a dense and orderly formation, surrounding us layer by layer, just like the one we were photographed just now. It was as if the scene of wiping out flies one by one did not exist at all. Even I was surprised at this moment. The training of these soldiers was amazing. It was as if they could shout the slogan "1, 2, 1" in the face of the endless abyss. Like the robots walking in unison, I have only seen such extreme military discipline in Xiling soldiers. These infantry heroes are eye-opening.

But it is a pity that these excellent soldiers are all enemies.

"Okay, if you don't attack, then it's up to me to do it," I twitched the corner of my mouth, having already made up my mind not to let anyone go today, "The finger of death!"

With such a cry that almost choked Sandora to death, I suddenly stretched out my hand, and red lightning burst out from the tip of my index finger, directly hitting an infantry hero who had no time to react. The opponent just raised the shield in his hand, like His predecessors also exploded into large balls of flame.

"Straight into the devil's eyes!"

In sight, two infantrymen turned into fireworks with a bang.

"Tsukuyomi Amaterasu!" "Orochanagi!" "Railgun!" "Positron city-breaking cannon!" "Hokuto Sentient Breaking Face Fist!" "Dynamic light waves!"

"Uh, what is Chen doing?"

Looking dumbfounded at someone using a lot of fancy but amazingly powerful skills to harvest the lives of those strange soldiers, Saber's stupid hair on her head spun around in a circle, then she touched Sandora next to her and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know," Her Majesty simply closed her eyes, "because I didn't see anything!"

"Then..." Emiya was stunned for a moment, then shrugged to his followers, "We should just pretend we didn't see it."

At the same time, as the number of the heroic spirit army he brought became smaller and smaller under the strange and strange attacks, and the attacks launched by his own side failed to even hurt the opponent's hair, Matou Shinji's face turned pale. His legs were pale, his legs were trembling, and he no longer had the triumphant expression at the beginning. The big beads of sweat finally slipped from his head as another infantry hero was wiped out in ashes by "Fuck your sister's Pegasus Meteor Fist".

"Don't...don't come over..."

With less than ten intact heavy armored infantry left around him, Matou Shinji's spirit was on the verge of collapse. He stumbled back while hurriedly pushing the infantry around him forward, "I surrender! I surrender! You Do not kill me!"

"Of course," I stopped and suddenly showed a bright smile, "of course I won't kill you, and I won't hurt you even a hair from now on."

Matou Shinji, Emiya Shirou, and even Arturia all stayed in place for a moment, looking at me with disbelief. After Matou Shinji was stunned for a few seconds, an expression of ecstasy suddenly appeared on his face: " Really...really? Can you really let me go?"

"Well, I just think it's better to hand you over to another person."

I shrugged, and as the words fell, a sharp whistling suddenly came from the air. Well, don't worry, it's not the landing module this time.

The dark chain pierced the air and appeared out of thin air. The sharp blade tied to the tip of the chain reflected bursts of cold light in the moonlight and attacked the infantry hero closest to me.

The latter's reaction was not unpleasant. The moment the chain sword appeared, he raised the shield in his hand. After a crisp "ding" sound, the blade penetrated deeply into the leather and metal-wrapped armor. In the round shield.

But this beautiful block only made him relax for less than a second. In the next second, starting from the position where the shield was hit, ice-blue crystal flowers spread rapidly like an explosion.

Like an infection, the infantryman who blocked the attack was quickly covered by a layer of growing crystals. Within ten seconds, the brave soldier turned into a crystal clear ice blue crystal statue.

Saber, who was next to Sandora, immediately subconsciously covered her right arm. She seemed to have encountered this thing before!

There was a light "click" sound, and the tall purple-haired woman landed lightly in front of me. She held a chain sword as a weapon in her hands. The ends of her hair that almost reached her ankles were fluttering slightly in the night wind, with strands of hair inside. The blue-white crystalline hair exudes a mysterious and distant light.

"Rider!!" Matou Shinji's voice was almost distorted, he raised his hands hysterically and roared, "You traitor, as expected... you really defected to Emiya's side, hahaha! You traitor!! You finally appeared in front of me Is it in front of you!?"

"It's not just me, human being," the tall purple-haired woman said quietly, "my master is more willing to show her new power here - using you as the first whetstone."
