Chapter 699 Robin Hood's Response Strategy (revised)
For some unknown reason, a warm current surged through the heart of [Matou Sakura].
She suddenly understood why Emiya Shirou had always received so much attention from her mother.
Even if it means putting him in jail for this.
Her heart also began to beat hotly at this moment.
"Enough, enough, I've eaten enough. If I eat any more, I'll get even fatter—!"
Looking at Shirou Emiya who was still grilling, [Matou Sakura] quickly waved her hand to express her refusal.
Although, the food made by Shirou Emiya is so delicious that you can't stop eating it.
It had been a long time since she had eaten so freely or tasted such delicious food, but in order to maintain her figure, she had to refuse it out loud.
Then, with an extremely apologetic expression, he looked at Emiya Shirou.
"Let me introduce myself first—"
"My name is Passionlip. Thank you very much for taking care of me, Emiya-senpai!"
"If it were you, I would be happy if you could call me casually."
Lip introduced himself to Emiya Shirou very cautiously and expressed his gratitude to him from the bottom of his heart.
From the time she was born until now, everyone has treated her badly, whether it is her mother or another person who was born with her.
This was especially true for the Servants summoned by Mother. None of them treated her so well.
Everyone treated her very badly, which made her feel miserable and extremely cowardly. She would be blamed for everything she did.
"I'm sorry. Although I'm very grateful to you, Emiya-senpai, I still can't let you go."
Before Emiya Shirou could say anything, Lip began to refuse on his own.
"I'm sorry, because of mother, because of that woman's order, I have to stop you from leaving."
"so--!"
"so--!"
"If I could, I beg you not to leave here!"
Lip's eyes also became extremely worried, and she really begged Shirou Emiya from the bottom of her heart not to leave here.
"why?"
"I don't want to be an enemy of Emiya-senpai, but if you really want to leave here, I will definitely take action."
"And I can't control my own strength. No matter how lenient I am, it is very likely that I will take Senior Emiya's life. I don't want to see this happen--"
Hearing Lip's words, Emiya Shirou wanted to scold him directly, but then he immediately restrained himself from doing so.
If you communicate with someone knowing that your attitude will become bad, you will still be able to control yourself to a certain extent.
But Shirou Emiya felt that in addition to Lip's own problems, he seemed to be affected by unknown reasons.
However, now Emiya Shirou has no idea what exactly affected him.
"Then we will become enemies, won't we?"
Shirou Emiya just sighed slightly. He didn't want to fight with such a [Matou Sakura]. However, during their brief time together, he could fully feel the kindness she exuded towards him.
From beginning to end, Lip never showed any hostility towards Emiya Shirou. Even when she knew that Emiya Shirou might escape directly from the place she had destroyed, she did not stop him immediately.
Perhaps another reason is that one wants to enjoy the hard-earned peaceful time.
"But, if there is a chance, can I still stay with you?"
Lip didn't seem to understand the hidden meaning of Shirou Emiya's words. In her opinion, as long as Shirou Emiya didn't leave here, they would not become enemies.
Emiya Shirou's statement was not so direct, but he said that they would become enemies to show that he would definitely get out.
Obviously, Lip's processor was not that advanced, and she didn't understand, but was a little confused.
"If there's a chance--!"
"it is good--!"
Lip smiled from the bottom of his heart, and then the wall was closed again.
It's just that this crisis has already made us realize that the past is coming.
"Senior, this firewall has been analyzed and is now included in the permissions. It can be disabled at any time."
White-haired Sakura appeared quietly behind Emiya Shirou, looking at Lip who was standing outside with a happy smile with some jealousy.
At this time, Shirou Emiya could also see the outside world through the red wall.
It was an endless jungle.
Lip stood outside the wall with a silly smile on his face, his two mechanical claws swaying slightly.
"Then can you remove its blockage?"
Shirou Emiya also nodded, thinking that all his efforts were not in vain.
Although I just feel embarrassed to take advantage of a simple child like Lip.
"Okay, I'll reduce its blocking ability right away—"
As she spoke, the white-haired Sakura closed her eyes slightly, and Emiya Shirou also felt that he had a clearer sense of Jeanne's position.
"Ruler, can you hear me? Can you hear me?"
"Master! Are you okay now?"
Hearing Emiya Shirou's voice, Jeanne's tone became somewhat delighted.
"I'm fine now. How's the situation over there?"
"I'm heading towards the Master's location with Miss Sesshōin and Caster. We'll be there soon!"
"Qiang——!"
That was the sound caused by steel colliding with steel.
The sound turned into a crashing wave, like a surging wave, spreading out in all directions.
In the jungle, a graceful figure suddenly flashed out.
It was Joan of Arc.
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
“Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!”
The sounds of flesh tearing and crisp collisions were constantly aroused, and suddenly a dazzling spark and strong impact erupted around Joan of Arc.
That's amazing skill.
Countless monsters were pierced by Jeanne d'Arc.
Countless machines were torn to pieces by Jeanne d'Arc.
In the jungle filled with purple-black poisonous fog, Jeanne led Kiara Sesshōin towards Shirou Emiya's location.
The opponent was more difficult to deal with than Jeanne had imagined.
Obviously, the green-clad Archer is a Servant who is extremely suitable for trap warfare.
Yew tree, forest, ranger, trap, poison, Joan of Arc quickly integrated this information and immediately determined the real name of the green Archer - Robin Hood.
In fact, Joan of Arc did not trigger any of the previous traps. With the revelation, sneak attacks and traps would hardly have any effect on her.
She could sense it in advance.
Therefore, Robin Hood found the simplest way to deal with Joan of Arc.
That is to let the maze guards here delay Jeanne's progress, while he will continue to release poisonous fog to affect her.
This tactic has also achieved remarkable results.
Chapter 700: Reunion
Under normal circumstances, Robin Hood would hardly be a match for Joan of Arc.
Because under normal circumstances, Joan of Arc is not only superior to Robin Hood in attributes, but her extremely high level of magic resistance makes Robin Hood's poison effective, and Revelation makes it difficult for Robin Hood's best sneak attacks and traps to be effective.
But now, Joan of Arc's overall attributes have dropped by one level due to some unknown reason.
She needs to deal with the maze guards who keep attacking her.
He needs to mobilize his nerves to protect Kiara Sesshōin and keep her from Robin Hood's attack.
We also need to keep rushing towards Shirou Emiya's location and try to reach him as soon as possible.
Robin Hood also hardly had any direct confrontation with Joan of Arc. He basically used various means to delay Joan of Arc's pace and let the poison continue to affect her.
Joan of Arc, whose attribute level has dropped, now has the same agility of B as Robin Hood. Perhaps Joan of Arc is still faster if she runs at full speed, but she has to face the maze guards who are constantly attacking her from all around.
Therefore, it was difficult for Joan of Arc to catch up since Robin Hood didn't even give her a chance to engage in a head-on confrontation.
After being immersed in the poisonous fog for a long time, even with such a strong anti-magic power, a lot of toxins have accumulated in the body.
In order to achieve his goal, Robin Hood really used everything he could.
Given the current situation, Jeanne felt more uncomfortable than facing Karna directly.
Because Karna is just very powerful, when fighting him you basically only need to consider frontal combat. He will not constantly set traps or always think about launching attacks on the opponent's Master.
When fighting against Robin Hood, you need to be careful at all times, as he might kill your own Master if you are not careful.
However, this attack, which was like a poisonous snake wrapping around Jeanne and eating her, would soon come to an end.
because------
"call out----!"
The sword arrow that tore through the strong wind pierced through the atmosphere and headed straight for Robin Hood, who was running backwards in the distance and keeping a certain distance from Joan of Arc, and shot away with a piercing scream.
"Pfft——!"
Blood gushed out, and a dagger with a chain pierced Robin Hood's chest fiercely.
The sudden attack from a distance made Robin Hood, whose attention was entirely focused on Joan of Arc, unable to react at all and he had been targeted.
Sneak attacks are not exclusive to Robin Hood.
After so many battles, especially countless clashes with Archer in the arena, Shirou Emiya no longer sticks to head-on combat.
The best fighting method is the one that can eliminate the enemy.
Robin Hood did not have the revelation like Joan of Arc that could accurately determine the location of the trap. Faced with such an attack, it was too late when he heard the sound.
Robin Hood only had time to turn slightly to the side so that the sword arrow did not directly penetrate his heart and shatter his soul core.
Joan of Arc is still some distance away from him now, so if the unknown archer wants to shoot a second shot, he will have to be prepared.
We must leave here now—
However, although this attack did not shatter the spirit core, Robin Hood was no longer able to resist.
If you want to know why.
"The fantasy collapses--!" A red-haired boy in the distance muttered softly.
The next second————
"Boom——!"
In this forest, the space suddenly shook.
At this moment, a powerful impact was set off with Robin Hood as the center. Although the power was not as terrifying as the Spiral Sword, it should not be underestimated under such a close-range explosion.
The poisonous fog suddenly dissipated.
The forest also began to blur, revealing the original appearance of the maze.
The maze guards also began to retreat after losing Robin Hood's command.
The surroundings suddenly turned into a barren wasteland of rocks like the bottom of the sea.
