In such a battlefield, Shirou Emiya's strength can have little impact on it.
He did not have the ability to break through the shield barrier of the [Sky Courtyard]. The sword arrows he shot out would be shot down by the automatic defense light cannon before reaching the target and could not touch the barrier.
Moreover, he would be locked by the light cannon produced by the magic circle, making it difficult to approach the [Sky Courtyard].
The battlefield on Karna's side is simply not something a master like himself can participate in. If he wants to participate forcibly, he will probably just be swallowed by the flames like the sun.
With no other options, Emiya could only throw himself into the battlefield.
But you have to know that the red side's Assassin directly sent 3000 Dragon Tooth Soldiers into the battlefield, and half of the black side's legions were directly destroyed by the sudden light cannon, leaving only part of the legions left by Vlad III in ambush in the forest.
Coupled with the unknown AOE on the entire battlefield, the black army can be said to be almost gone.
Shirou Emiya was fighting against a large number of Dragon Fang Soldiers almost alone. Even though he could kill them easily, Emiya, who had already been hit by an EX-level light cannon, was already covered in blood.
He was already seriously injured, and was also facing a large number of Dragon Tooth Soldiers who were so numerous that they were like ants killing an elephant.
Plus the aftermath of the servants fighting each other.
And Emiya needs to protect the android who is already seriously injured.
Due to many factors, although there was something in his body and Emiya was not in danger of life, he was almost on the verge of exhaustion.
Seeing Jeanne appear, Emiya stood up as usual and wanted to talk to her politely, but a strong feeling of weakness burst out from the soles of his feet.
Standing up too quickly, Shirou Emiya lost control of his feet while squatting on the ground and fell forward.
Jeanne did not expect that Shirou Emiya would fall like this. She appeared in front of Shirou Emiya at an extremely fast speed and caught him.
When she saw Shirou Emiya so weak and such a selfless young man, Jeanne couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Being able to save others on the battlefield, no matter which side you are on, is something worthy of respect.
And he is only a fifteen-year-old boy. In the real world, he is just a high school student like the girl he possessed, Leticia.
Joan of Arc couldn't help but sigh with regret when she saw him stepping into the battlefield like this.
She seemed to have forgotten that she was only sixteen years old when she stepped into a battlefield that no one dared to imagine and won.
Chapter 165: The Complex Battlefield
In an abandoned warehouse somewhere in Tuliface, a dense sea of insects is surging in it. All that can be seen are countless hearts placed on the sea of insects, which are constantly being swallowed up as time goes by.
"call out--!"
A dark shadow appeared silently at the front door of the room.
On the face of the black shadow, there was a skull-shaped mask.
And the sea of insects in front of him also condensed into the shape of an old man at an extremely fast speed.
"Did you bring it?"
The old man asked the man in front of him, who was wrapped in black clothes, in his hoarse voice and in an unquestionable tone.
"Mission accomplished—Master"
In the palm of the man's hand was an extremely fat insect, and the back of the insect was densely covered with six command spells.
At the same time, at the edge of the castle of the Yugdomirenya clan, fierce flames appeared from the woods.
"As the Master said, you are not just a simple Master."
The silver-haired girl held the blade in her hand and swung it at Kotomine Shiro at an extremely fast speed in the mist, no matter when she hid her figure or from which direction she attacked him.
Shiro Kotomine blocked it very easily, as if the moment Jack the Ripper disappeared, he knew where she would attack him.
It was as if he could predict the future, making it impossible for Jack the Ripper to start his work.
【Inspiration】
Grade: A
A skill equivalent to "Intuition".
Intuition is your sixth sense in combat, but revelation applies to everything related to achieving your goals (such as choosing the best path on a journey).
The Master called Kotomine Shiro has the same skills as the Ruler of this Holy Grail War.
But compared to this, what is more surprising is that Kotomine Shiro is a magus but has skills that only heroic spirits possess.
"Does it belong to the black side after all?"
At this time, Shiro Kotomine's strength was not enough to allow him to fight Jack the Ripper easily, but because of the revelation, he was able to fight him without losing.
But if it is a long battle, Kotomine Shirou will not be able to match the Servant who hardly gets tired.
The main reason is that Shiro Kotomine is currently unable to cause effective damage to Jack the Ripper, and he will be the first to lose after a long battle.
"Eh--!"
"Master!"
A cold and stern voice came from Kotomine Shiro's Command Seal.
Due to his familiarity with the Command Seals, Kotomine Shiro has been able to modify the way they are used, enabling them to communicate with his Servants.
It seemed that Jack the Ripper did not intend to stay for too long. Almost at the moment when the news came out from the Command Spell, the thick fog dissipated.
Under the tree nearby, there should have been the Holy Grail and a large bag of hearts, but now there was only the Holy Grail, lying alone in the grass, as if it had been abandoned.
Shiro Kotomine was also very confused. Wasn't Assassin's Master's goal the Holy Grail?
"The Master seemed to have only said that he needed a human heart, but not the Holy Grail. I will just take the heart back with me."
Somewhere in the shadows, Jack the Ripper muttered to himself that as a child, he did not understand much about the importance of the Holy Grail, an extra item.
The only thing in his mind is to complete the task given by the Master, so that he can see his [mother].
The scene shifts to the battlefield where Karna is fighting with Vlad III and other heroes.
Due to the death of Archer and Berserker, the ones who now provide magic power to Karna include not only his own Master, but also these two Masters who lost their Servants and Kotomine Shiro who does not need to provide magic power to Assassin.
Under the magic of the four magicians, it was rare for Karna to display his full strength in such a short time.
However, because they were exerting their full strength, the magic power of the four masters was consumed at a very fast rate.
After only a few exchanges, the magic power provided by the four masters was almost consumed by Karna, and the next battle could not be fought with all his strength like before.
However, Black seemed to have problems at this time.
"Is there a problem with the supply of mana to the androids?"
Danic looked in the direction of his castle and quickly figured out the reason. The magic power supply source of his servants had been completely destroyed. Now they could only rely on their respective masters to provide magic power for their servants.
The black servants cannot release their Noble Phantasms at will.
The fierce battle between the two sides also eased at this moment, and both sides reduced the conflict of the battle because of the problem of magic power.
But soon, the situation changed.
After the black servants lost their magic power supply for a while, Karna felt a sudden surge of endless magic power in himself, as if he had endless strength to use.
And he felt that the contract seemed to have changed, and his hand began to raise the magic gun unconsciously, aiming at the three servants in front of him.
On another battlefield, the fight between Chiron and Achilles continued. Although the two sides were fighting, the outcome was not decided on the third night. However, Achilles' hand holding the cross spear suddenly lost control and aimed at Chiron.
He also felt that his contract had changed, and endless magic power surged into his body.
The scene returns to the abandoned warehouse again.
After the old man transferred the Command Seals and the Contract to himself, the space around the dark man also surged.
A silver-haired girl appeared beside him holding a large bag of hearts, and threw what was in her hand into the sea of insects.
The heart filled with magic power was devoured in an instant.
“Can I see [Mom]?”
Jack the Ripper made a plea to the old man.
Under the old man's instructions, the sea of insects parted to both sides, revealing a path in the middle, allowing Jack the Ripper to walk in.
At the end of the sea of insects, there was a woman hanging on the wall, who was originally covered by the swarm of insects. She had long brown hair, a graceful figure, and was wearing a green dress and black over-the-knee boots.
Jack the Ripper hugged her abdomen with great happiness, and the woman also hugged Jack the Ripper while crying.
The two of them hugged each other tightly in the endless swarm of insects.
"In the name of the Command Seal, Lancer, Rider, release your Noble Phantasm!"
An extremely old voice came from an abandoned warehouse.
Chapter 166: The Black Assassin Allied with Kotomine Shiro
"Matou Zouken——"
In a Chinese restaurant somewhere in Sighisoara, Shiro Kotomine looked at the old man sitting in front of him and couldn't help but read out his name.
He thought that he would never see the three great families of Fuyuki City again after the Holy Grail War, but he did not expect that he would not only meet them again, but also meet them in the Holy Grail War.
"Sixty years——"
Kotomine Shiro had never imagined that besides himself and Danic, there was another person who had waited for sixty years to participate in this Holy Grail War.
However, at this time, Kotomine Shiro was sitting in the seat in front of Matou Zouken, feeling very uncomfortable.
On the one hand, the aura emanating from him made him feel uncomfortable, and on the other hand, there was the mapo tofu in front of him that was even brighter red than paint.
Shiro Kotomine could even feel that the hot air emanating from the plate of mapo tofu was scarlet red. Just by inhaling a little, he could feel an extremely hot flame rushing into his nasal cavity.
He even held his breath involuntarily.
"This is Kirei's favorite dish. I'm sure it will suit your taste as well."
The old man sitting in front of Kotomine Shiro was smiling and looked extremely kind, as if he really believed that Kotomine Shiro, who was a brother of Kotomine Kirei, had the same taste as him.
But only Kotomine Shiro could sense the old man's deep malice, which was somehow trying to intimidate him.
As Kotomine Rizheng's nominal adopted son, Kotomine Shiro also asked him about his so-called brother Kotomine Kirei.
And it was precisely because of this observation that Kotomine Shiro noticed the "distortion" of his brother-in-law Kirei.
Of course, Shiro really wanted to free him from his depression, but after thinking about it, it was not a good thing.
Shiro was afraid that Kotomine Kirei would confirm his distortion, and that he might be the first person to be attacked, which made him very worried.
Therefore, when Shiro faced Kirei, he always kept as much distance as possible.
He also naturally knew why Kotomine Kirei ate mapo tofu, which even a Heroic Spirit like him could not tolerate.
"Master Jiantong, what are you planning to do by coming to our camp?"
Since he had participated in the Third Holy Grail War, there was no need for Kotomine Shiro to cover up too much about himself.
He asked Zouken Matou directly his question. Of course, he was also reluctant about the Mapo Tofu in front of him and wanted to change the subject so as not to focus on it.
After all, it was Zouken Matou who appeared on the streets of Sighişoara, and he was not invited by Shiro Kotomine.
As the previous Ruler, Kotomine Shiro can also accurately determine who the Master is without the need for Command Seals.
Through the sight of the familiar, Kotomine Shiro also rushed to the location of Matou Zouken very quickly.
Matou Zouken also sat in the restaurant, waiting for Kotomine Shiro to arrive.
"I want to ally with the Red Side."
Matou Zouken answered Kotomine Shiro's question directly without any concealment.
Of course, Kotomine Shiro also had some judgment in his mind. The appearance of Matou Zouken and Emiya Shirou was not the same.
One can sense the strong fighting spirit emanating from the servants around Shirou Emiya that they are here to provoke us.
Not only did Matou Zouken not have the same fighting spirit as when Emiya Shirou came, he didn't even bring his Servant with him.
This surprised Kotomine Shiro, but he suddenly changed his mind.
"The Black Assassin?"
Kotomine Shiro has a copy of the information of the masters of all the black servants. After all, Kotomine Shiro is an ally of the Magician's Association and assists them.
The Magician's Association also generously provided information about the Black Master.
Under such circumstances, only the black Assassin seemed to have encountered an accident, and the news from the Magician's Association was that the master of the black Assassin, Sagara Houma, was found dead in London two days ago.
