Chapter 169: Page 169

What's more, the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid is Kenneth's masterpiece. Is there any weakness that he wouldn't consider and guard against?

The fact that he dared to use it in actual combat showed that he had already prepared to deal with its weaknesses being targeted.

He even added a wind magic trick around himself to clear the air to avoid mercury poisoning.

All I can say is that he knows so much that he doesn't seem like a magician, but more like a scientist.

As for Huihui, she was slightly stunned when she saw that the lightning did not have the expected effect.

And in the moment of shock, the Mercury 19 whip had already come up.

Bang~!

Despite the magic shield blocking it, the huge force still caused Huihui to stagger back a few steps, reaching the edge of the middle platform and almost falling out.

"Ahhhh!"

Huihui waved her hands to regain her balance.

At this moment, a long mercury whip attacked her again.

When Huihui moved the magic shield to block, the front end of the mercury whip suddenly moved flexibly like a snake, bypassed the magic shield, and hit her head on.

“Uh uh uh~!”

Huihui suffered the consequences of her own actions in an instant. The electric current from the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid shocked her so much that she became stiff and twitched.

At the same time, the potential energy of the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid also acted on her, and she was pushed straight off the platform.

"Ah, what a pity! Contestant Huihui failed in her revenge and fell into the water again."

In the above explanation, Nero couldn't help but feel sorry for Huihui when he saw her fall into the water.

"It can be seen that Huihui was careless this time. She misjudged her opponent and used the wrong attack, and she suffered the consequences in the end."

"And from this point, we can see that Kenneth has a wide range of knowledge. He is worthy of being the famous genius professor of the Clock Tower."

When Kenneth heard this, he immediately raised his head proudly, felt a little proud, and then continued to challenge the level.

"Damn it, just wait for me."

Huihui, who had just swam to the edge of the track and landed, had an angry look on her face, and the dangerous light in her eyes became even more intense.

After saying these harsh words, he quickly ran towards the starting point, ready to fight back as soon as possible.

“Oh? At the starting point, the two players who were shot down by Huihui met each other. What will happen to them?”

Following Nero’s words, the audience’s attention shifted from Huihui to Qidian.

I saw that Kiritsugu Emiya had returned to the starting point. He set out again, but not long after he walked, he met Waver, who had just passed level 2 and was starting to attack level 3.

The difficulty of level 3 has increased a lot. It is a disk that rotates inside and outside in opposite directions, and there are some moving pillars on the disk.

Those passing through not only need to resist the rotation of the disc, but also have to pay attention to the pillars that may hit them at any time.

For Webber, it was very difficult just to pass through, and he was almost knocked down by the pillars several times.

Moreover, Weber had already started breathing heavily at this time.

He doesn't exercise often, so his physical strength has been depleted a lot. In addition, what is even more fatal to him is the depletion of his magic power.

He already had limited magic power due to his aptitude, and now he had been performing enhanced magic for such a long time that nearly half of his magic power had been consumed.

"Damn it, I'm definitely going to be the last one if this goes on."

Weber was also aware of his own condition and couldn't help but become extremely anxious.

At the beginning, he was more or less confident in himself.

After all, he, like Kenneth and Emiya Kiritsugu, thought that Alice Nakiri and Asuna Yuuki would be weak.

Especially Yuuki Asuna.

She doesn't even know magic, and in Waver's opinion, she is definitely the weakest among the seven masters.

The result...

The clown is me!

After the game started, the three of them refreshed their understanding of Alice Nakiri and Asuna Yuuki.

At the same time, they also understood that they had overestimated these two, and Nero's evaluation when introducing them was also very objective.

Alice Nakiri's strength is even second only to Flora, Megumin, and Kenneth, ranking in the middle.

And Yuuki Asuna is definitely not the weakest. Even if she doesn't know magic, her physical strength is much stronger than Weber's.

There are also some magic props that make up for the lack of magical power, and now he has even seized the opportunity to rush to the first place.

This embarrassed Weber, who had originally hoped that he could at least get the second-to-last place so as not to lose so humiliatingly.

At this pace, he will definitely be ranked last!

This was a result he absolutely did not want to see.

The immature Weber possesses the characteristics of a rebellious teenager.

Wanting to prove oneself means being too concerned about face. On a deeper level, it is a self-aware inferiority complex and fragile self-esteem.

This is also the reason why he reacted so strongly after being taught a lesson by Kenneth.

It is also because of the principle that everything will turn into its opposite when it reaches its extreme. In order to protect his fragile self-esteem, he, who is inferior to others, has extended a kind of arrogance that is not justified but also unreasonable.

It was precisely because of this arrogance that he dared to participate in the Holy Grail War even though he knew that he might face Kenneth or even other magicians stronger than him.

It is the same for him now. Being the last one can only prove that he is a waste or something, which he absolutely does not want!

As the saying goes, evil comes from the courage to do something. Once people are determined to do something, they will be very brave and may even not consider the consequences.

Just as Weber was about to get angry, he heard a noise behind him.

When he turned around, he saw Emiya Kiritsugu running towards him.

"You've come just in time. Let me show you some color."

Waver came to the center of the disc and began to perform magic, preparing to cooperate with the mechanism to give Kiritsugu Emiya a big blow.

His idea at this time was very simple. As a gatekeeper, he would at least ensure that there was someone behind him to avoid being the last one.

Naturally, Kiritsugu Emiya also noticed his behavior.

Having lost his submachine gun and only having a pistol to carry with him, he glanced at Weber, but didn't care and continued to run forward calmly.

then……

"Inherent time control, triple speed!"

When he came close to the third stage, Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly used his signature skill, activating the 'speed up hook', and instantly passed through the back of Waver who was rotating with the disc, and passed through the stage.

Waver didn't even have time to react, and in the blink of an eye, Emiya Kiritsugu had already reached the other side.

"Nani?"

Waver was shocked. He didn't expect that Emiya Kiritsugu had such a trick up his sleeve.

But even if the person has passed away, he can't just watch Emiya Kiritsugu leave, otherwise wouldn't the magic energy he consumed in brewing be wasted?

So, who cares! Just get the fruits first, whether they are available or not!

“Gandr!”

Due to insufficient magic power, Weber even cut his palm and used the life force in his own blood as a medium to cast the spell.

A dozen dark red magic bullets condensed.

This was the result of Waver's preparation with the 'Momentary Contract', or the prerequisite chant.

His attack was also much more brutal than the one he used to test Huihui before.

Gandr is a kind of curse. Because one needs to point at the target when casting the spell, the action is similar to shooting, so it is nicknamed Gandr.

At the same time, this is also a common attack used by magicians in actual combat, which can cause physical and mental discomfort to the target.

Although this description doesn't sound very good, the actual effect is quite outstanding.

Physical and mental discomfort, to be more precise, is a combined attack on the body and mind.

The discomfort is not as low-level as dizziness, but various internal injuries including internal bleeding, as well as the onset of major and minor diseases.

If the target happens to have a serious illness, such as heart disease, the target will have a heart attack as soon as the bullet is fired, and it may even be fatal.

This is only physical damage, the mental aspect is also not simple.

Effects such as hallucinations, coma, panic, and unconsciousness are triggered randomly, and if you are lucky, you can even experience them all.

Therefore, this is a kind of magic that can not only cause damage to the target, but also knock out the target or expose its flaws.

In addition, the extremely short casting time of a single shot also makes it very practical, making it a favorite among magicians.

Under Waver's control, more than a dozen fist-sized dark red magic bullets shot towards Emiya Kiritsugu at different angles.

"Um?!"

Emiya Kiritsugu listened to the noise behind him, turned around vigilantly, and saw a barrage of bullets coming at him, and he couldn't help but be startled.

He also didn't expect that Weber, a young student who he thought was very weak, actually had such an "advanced" way of casting spells.

"Inherent time control!"

Faced with this barrage of bullets, Emiya Kiritsugu, who had no means of defense, had no choice but to activate the "speed up hook" again and dodge with his agile skills.

But although Weber had no practical experience, he was a professional after all. No matter how weak he was, he could still be quite powerful when he got angry. The angles of some of the Gandr bullets were very tricky.

Emiya Kiritsugu dodged most of the attacks, but because of the continuous use of inherent time control, the side effects put more and more pressure on his body, and he gradually became tired. As soon as his movements slowed down, he was hit.

And unfortunately, because of the dodging action just now, his body balance was very bad at the moment.

After being hit by a Gandr, he was not only forced to exit the accelerated state, but also lost his balance and fell, rolling all the way down the platform.

Thump~!

"Success?"

Everything happened so fast that Weber was unable to react.

It took him a while to react, and he shouted ecstatically: "I did it!"

He actually shot down his opponent, who was a well-known magician killer!

Weber suddenly felt so awesome. This was enough for him to brag about for a whole year after returning to the Clock Tower!

At the same time, he felt that this also proved himself, and his self-confidence increased immediately.

Well, to put it simply, it's expanded.

There's no way. This child has been suppressed for too long and now he finally has a point to vent. It's really difficult to stop him from getting too arrogant.

"Hehe, so what if he's a magician killer? I still shot him down anyway."

Waver put his hands on his hips, speaking arrogantly, but he didn't know that Emiya Kiritsugu, who had already reached the shore and was healing his wounds while walking back to the starting point, turned around and glanced at him coldly when he heard what he said.

Obviously, Waver has been targeted by Kiritsugu Emiya.

Come to think of it, Emiya Kiritsugu is a killer. If it weren't for this game, a little brat like Weber wouldn't be able to mess with him at will.

If it weren't for the restrictions of the competition rules, based on what Waver said, Emiya Kiritsugu would have to use live bullets to shoot Weber's 607 to wake him up.

What? You said Emiya Kiritsugu is a righteous partner and doesn't want to attack innocent people?

So how do you guess he got the nickname Magician Killer?

In Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes, none of these magi were innocent.

But even if there are restrictions on the competition rules, it is not that Kiritsugu Emiya is helpless against Weber. After all...

This place is not far from the starting point, right?

and so……

'Silly child, run! 'XN

The audience witnessed the entire process, including the last cold look that Kiritsugu Emiya gave Waver.

Looking at Weber who was still standing there smugly, I couldn't help but observe a moment of silence for him.

Iskandar simply covered his face and couldn't bear to watch any further.
