Four heroic spirits besieged caster Medea and her master Lin En. It was supposed to be a sure-win situation - the seven heroic spirit servants each had their own abilities, but no matter who they were, even in their most advantageous projects, it was impossible.
No match for the combined efforts of four heroic spirits.
Well, that's how it should be.
But the development of things was somewhat unexpected.
I don’t know what Master and Servant Caster did to make them incredibly powerful. Not only were they able to fight Archer, who was the best at attacking, and even had the upper hand for a time, but they were also able to survive the absolutely unfavorable situation of being surrounded by four heroic spirits.
They retreated and even used unknown and bizarre means to transfer three heroic spirits and two masters away.
In Cheng Peng's innate spiritual sense, the entire Liudong Temple was empty. Not only did there not be any sense of danger, he could not even feel the breath of a living person.
"The purple-black magic circle just now seems to have opened a passage between the two worlds, transferring everything in Liudong Temple to another world." Du Sanmiao frowned, "This is not a particularly powerful spell.
, it’s just about creating an independent space, and then teleporting the target who steps into the trap... I just don’t know where that world is... and I don’t know what kind of arrangement there will be..."
Because now was not the time to talk nonsense, she didn't go into too much detail, but it was enough for Cheng Peng to understand what was going on and where the problem lay.
The thing is as he guessed - for those teleported Heroic Spirits and Masters, there should be no danger in just being teleported. The danger lies in the area being teleported - obviously, it is impossible for Caster to spend such a huge amount of money.
The magic power just sends everyone there to enjoy the mountains and rivers. The place they are sent to must be full of dangers. It is very likely that there are dense agencies and enemies.
The group, with Caster and Linn secretly watching... Actually, those two are just fine. With them alone, no matter how favorable the conditions are, they may not really be able to defeat two against five - Archer's attack power, Saber's attack power
The defensive power of Berserker and the terrifying combat power of Berserker...these three combined together can be said to be a perfect combination.
The biggest problem is that the super dangerous thing that everyone felt just now has disappeared!
There is no doubt that that thing must be there too.
With the combined power of those three heroic spirits, can we defeat that terrifying thing?
To be honest, Cheng Peng felt a little unsure.
In the regional channel, Du Sanae shouted several times, but neither Dingdan nor Haigui responded. It seemed that they were indeed "not in Fuyuki Town" at this moment.
I just don’t know if they can come back? And - even if the teleportation array appears again after a while, who can come back?
Cheng Peng left Du Sanmiao at the gate of Liudong Temple and told her to be more careful. He cautiously stepped into Liudong Temple and patrolled inside carefully, looking for any clues.
Although he estimated that his search was mostly in vain, he was not born to be a person who liked to do nothing and wait for the results. Even if he was just familiar with the terrain, he at least hoped that he could do something to add to the balance of victory and defeat.
A small weight.
If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach a thousand miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you can't become a river. Many times, victory or defeat is actually determined by some inconspicuous things.
Cheng Peng checked very carefully, room by room, looking at it bit by bit, not missing any tiny corner.
In a certain guest room, he found several small fragments, which contained magic power that was not powerful but seemed familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
And when he stopped outside a monk's dormitory near a pond, he saw two shallow footprints on the ground that was relatively moist because it was close to the water.
This pair of footprints is very special. There is no gap caused by the gap between the heel and the sole of the foot. It has a complete shape from beginning to end. It looks ordinary, but it is surprisingly light, except for the slightly deeper position of the toe.
Some, even Cheng Peng almost missed it - after all, except for the tip of the toe, the rest of it was almost invisible.
He searched carefully and found only a pair of solitary footprints and nothing else at all.
This is very unreasonable, because the ground in this area is so wet. It is said that anyone passing by will leave footprints, and the footprints must be two complete lines, which can be seen when entering and exiting.
Cheng Peng closed his eyes and imagined the scene of leaving footprints in his mind - this was a man wearing soft-soled shoes. His steps were very light, incredibly light. Even if he walked on such wet soil, he would not be able to move.
There will be no traces left. When he came here, he stopped, not knowing what he did, and then jumped up. Because of the force he exerted, he left shallow footprints, and because the way he exerted force was from the toes,
So only the traces of the toes were slightly deeper... He opened his eyes, tried to circulate the immortality energy to the extreme, walked slowly into the muddy ground, walked to the pair of footprints and stood for a while, then raised his breath and jumped
Get up and return to the original place.
Looking down, there were no footprints left when I walked in, but there were two complete footprints left where I stopped and took off, which were quite conspicuous. Compared with the almost invisible footprints next to them,
Make a decision.
Cheng Peng frowned, secretly fearful in his heart.
Although the other abilities of the person who left this pair of footprints are unclear, at least he is much better than him in lightness kung fu.
"I remember that the old priest said that the heroic spirits and masters here are eroding the foundation of the Holy Grail War - of course this may be a direct system prompt, but it may also be that he sent his subordinates to conduct reconnaissance here..."
He talked to himself, while recalling the formations of the seven groups of participants in the Fourth Holy Grail War that Du Sanae had explained to him, "Tohsaka, Matou, and Einzbern from the three Gossip families, and the participants are Tsuchigo.
Kadokunae, Kai Kei and Ding Dan; we are the participants of the Magic Association; the two groups of caster and rider should be free players, but one is evil and the other is good, and they are clearly distinct; as for the group of assassin, it is said that they are from the church camp.
…”
"In other words, this Qinggong master who secretly sneaked into Liudong Temple to conduct reconnaissance is probably a heroic spirit belonging to the church."
In the conversation just now, Lin En didn't mention the invasion of heroic spirits at all. It's possible that they didn't even realize that the attackers had barged in and took a look around.
Combined with the pair of footprints that were almost invisible, Cheng Peng could imagine that the assassin must be someone who not only had extraordinary light skills, but could also sneak into any barrier and defense silently.
Such ability is indeed worthy of the rank of "Assassin"!
Du Sanmiao once jokingly said that Cheng Peng can be qualified for any job except caster and saber, but compared with this assassin, Cheng Peng, the master of the Butian Pavilion of the assassin sect, is just a simple martial artist.
There is no word "assassination" at all, but he is very similar to the assassin Nie Zheng, who directly comes to "kill openly"... Although assassination is more heroic and powerful than assassination, from the assassin's point of view, this guy is indeed good at assassination.
It was so powerful that Cheng Peng felt inferior.
If this man was allowed to free his hands and feet to assassinate, even Cheng Peng himself would have a headache, and those heroic spirits and masters who lacked effective reconnaissance capabilities would be completely defenseless in front of him.
No... Even Cheng Peng himself, with his innate spiritual sense, may not be able to defeat the layers of defenses caster has set up in Liudong Temple. Since this person can sneak into Liudong Temple silently and conduct reconnaissance in a brazen manner.
Then he walked away, then it was entirely possible for him to sneak into the hotel where Cheng Peng and Du Sanmiao were staying silently, and launch a fatal sneak attack on Du Sanmiao, who had weak defense, from behind!
What's even more terrible is that since this guy belongs to the church camp, he naturally knows about their coming to attack Caster, so he is probably lurking near the mountain gate now, waiting for an opportunity to attack the lone Master... The thought of it
Cheng Peng felt horrified by this possibility, and a chill rose up from the back of his heart. He hurriedly increased his speed to the limit, used Shukuchi with all his strength, and hurriedly ran towards the gate of Liudong Temple.
Although it only took a few minutes from the time he stepped into Liudong Temple for reconnaissance to the time he returned, but if the assassin really wanted to take advantage of this opportunity... I'm afraid something would have happened at the mountain gate!
When he used all his strength, all the aura that had been hidden immediately burst out, like a strong wind rising on the ground, and the galloping pace left a sharp sound in the air.
But at the same time, he clearly felt a powerful magic power suddenly rising from the mountain gate.
Immediately afterwards, there were exclamations and screams from the girls.
