Chapter 26 The Sword of Victory and the Sheath of Protection
() Even after knowing that Freddy was attacking for psychic holes, no one was happy, but more frightened.
Freddy's attacks were completely unpredictable, and they were almost powerless in the face of their own psychic vulnerabilities.
then--
One after another, Zheng Zha's teammates disappeared from their memories one by one.
What Zhang Heng was most afraid of happened again before his eyes. He watched helplessly as his beloved woman was dragged away without any resistance. When he heard Ming Yanwei's miserable and desperate cry, he finally burst into tears.
Facing the fire that he could never forget in his memory, Xiao Honglu looked at the woman who had turned into charcoal in the flames. He could no longer control his emotions and cried loudly.
When Ling Dian was sniping at the demon, he discovered that he had killed his beloved mother and sister. Although he knew this was impossible, his defense collapsed in an instant.
Zhan Lan was hugged from behind by her dead boyfriend. Zhan Lan, who had always felt guilty about her ex-boyfriend, finally collapsed instantly after the man revealed her betrayal.
Wang Xia was afraid in the fantasy, but when he heard the news of the death of his beloved mother, he knelt on the ground with a plop, and finally cried out...
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Whether in the spiritual world or in reality, the fierce battle with the undead is going on in full swing.
Sber waved the Sword of Oath and Covenant in his hand, cutting down the hordes of undead to the ground, like stubble ears of wheat under a sickle.
The strongest human fantasy created by this planet shows absolute perfection and balance in her hands.
The sword edge cut through an arc and chopped off a ghoul's head at shoulder level.
The golden sword swept over and smashed a skeleton into pieces.
Then there was another graceful blow, and another zombie fell. Its head rolled off its shoulders and fell at her feet, where it was stepped on and exploded like a watermelon.
She fought a bloody path, enemies fell around her, and rotting corpses began to pile up.
But she felt tired and had too many enemies.
They were approaching step by step, and the rotten smell almost made her unable to hold on.
Even though they were crushed and destroyed, they still continued without flinching, as if they were celebrating their new life with a feast of death.
This won't work, the King of Knights told himself.
Next to her were Shirou, who was holding a pair of black and white swords, and Rin, who was holding a zoth short sword. They were almost exhausted at the moment, but they were still unyielding and tenaciously killing the incoming undead beside her.
The roars of the undead made them feel chilled, and the seven-winged angel in front of the black sun made them even more worried.
"Rin, Shirou, listen, this can't go on-"
After killing a tall skeleton warrior, Sber said to the tired two people beside him.
"I will use my Noble Phantasm to open a way, you seize the opportunity to rush in! Only by solving the source can we have the possibility of victory!"
Regardless of whether they heard her words or not, Sber released the Holy Sword.
In an instant, the dazzling sword illuminated the surrounding darkness as if it was promised victory.
Just like seeing a ray of light in the long dark night, all the anxiety and uneasiness that had been lingering in my heart were swept away by this ray of light.
This is the whole crystallization depicted in the hearts of people who, despite being in a battlefield dripping with blood and being in a hell full of terror and despair of death, still firmly praise the dignity of human nature and disappear in the limited glory.
"We can win!"
Rin's voice trembled slightly with joy, and he hummed selflessly.
Putting all the strength in his body into his hands that tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, Sber raised the golden sword high.
Light is gathering.
"Oath(ex)——"
As if illuminating this holy sword was his supreme mission, the radiance condensed into a dazzling beam of light.
"Sword of Victory (lbur)————!"
With one swing of the holy sword that cuts through mountains and rivers, he is liberated by Sber's anger————!
The huge sword of light rushed wildly in this sea of death, turning all the undead it encountered into nothing.
The entire Sea of the Dead is divided into two——
All the undead in a straight line in front of Sber silently split into two halves, extending into the deepest darkness before finally disappearing.
"Quick, rush in-"
Seizing this brief moment, Rin and Shirou burst out at the highest speed and rushed towards the end of the road. Sber arrived last, and finally reached the black sun before the sea of undead gathered.
At the bottom of the hill.
When they arrived at their destination, they showed no signs of happiness.
Here, the black aura in the space is as strong as substance. Every time you take a breath, it seems that a ball of smelly, dirty, poisonous, and full of spikes is stuffed into your lungs. This black aura is
The breath flows from the inside out, the inside responds to the outside, echoing each other, devouring crazily and corroding all vitality.
Due to their intrusion, the sea of the undead behind them suddenly boiled. All the skeletons and zombies ran and jumped towards the place with a skill that was not inferior to that of high-level heroic spirits.
However, the most despairing thing is not this.
Without considering the loss of the undead at all, the seven-winged angels on the peak took action without reservation.
"Original Dark Sky Abyss·Pitch Black Star!!!——"
The all-devouring, most primitive, dark, most absolutely imaginary dark star has arrived again!
Sber and the others finally felt what it was like when the King of Heroes faced this move head-on——
The pitch-black star slowly fell with absolute majesty. The darkness caused the surrounding light to collapse towards it, and the space was distorted. It seemed to be tearing apart everything in the world crazily, trying to swallow everything in!
Nowhere to escape——
The gathered undead were instantly decomposed into the most primitive matter in the darkness, and then were absorbed into this huge dark star.
The end came again, and then the unyielding roar of Sber sounded.
"——vlon!!!——"
In an instant, the world completely changed, and the darkness was driven away by the golden light.
The sheath of the Holy Sword that appeared in front of Sber disintegrated into several shining fragments, unfolding into a perfect golden barrier in front of her, protecting her and Shirou and Rin beside her.
This is the interruption of space.
The wall of the fairyland that prevents the filth from the outside world from entering, isolates a world that cannot be reached in this life.
Sber, protected by the sheath of the holy sword, was cut off from all truth in the world at this time.
The strongest protection in the world.
The ultimate protection that cannot even be reached by the five major magics, cannot be violated by anyone, and even the Dark Star cannot break through——
【Isolated Utopia】
The all-devouring darkest flame of the Dark Star is blocked from this ultimate protection, but this does not mean that it is ineffective.
Energy cannot be created by reason, nor can it be destroyed by reason.
--Energy conservation law
The extreme distortion, extreme darkness, and extremely majestic destructive power of the dark star that tears apart space were blocked before Avalon's interruption.
But will that poor energy disappear?
of course not.
While destroying everything outside this protection, it consumed the magic power used by Sber to develop this strongest protection at an alarming speed.
In just a few breaths, Sber's face had already turned pale.
In just a few breaths of time, the sheath of the holy sword had almost exhausted its magic power when it was locked against the dark star!
The strongest guardian is crumbling, and is about to be broken through by the dark flames of destruction——
Rin looked at Sber, who was still trying to support himself, and the situation that was about to collapse, and suddenly laughed as if he was relieved, but——
If you don't want to give in, just die like this
"Projection begins——"
However, there was a low moan in her ear that she had not given up yet.
Emiya Shirou, at the most critical moment, read what he needed from the sword restriction system.
The strongest defense in memory.
The moment the light curtain of the Holy Sword's sheath disappeared and the black flames of the void were about to engulf them——
"The blazing sky is covered with seven rings────!"
He shouted his true name, and the atmosphere shook.
Something that appeared out of thin air blocked the falling black star.
The seven petals that appeared in front of Shirou were the protective objects behind the scabbard.
Its name is s, and it was the only shield of Ajax that blocked the spear thrown by the great hero in the Trojan War.
It is shaped like a flower petal, with seven petals in total, each of which can rival an ancient city wall.
As long as you use this on the released weapon, it can be said to be the enemy's barrier Noble Phantasm.
In that hero's memory, defeat was doomed just by the first hit of the thrown weapon.
Should this falling star be able to stop it?
Shirou wasn't sure, but he soon found out.
This reputation as the strongest defense was wiped out in the next moment.
As if mocking, the black virtual general tore the shield into pieces piece by piece.
"---Varied…………!!!"
Shirou shouted in disbelief and shock——
The six petals are scattered and withered.
There is only one piece left.
The two pitch-black stars showed no signs of slowing down and continued to approach the seventh piece with a devastating momentum!
With the momentum of tearing the silk, Shirou poured all the magic power in his body into this final protection.
In the strong light, there was a sound of something breaking.
"————"
Even with multiple amounts of magic power injected into it, the shield of Ajax couldn't survive even a second under the dark star, and instantly turned into powder.
Just as the three people were desperately preparing to face the final judgment——
As if by a miracle, the pitch-black star just barely stopped in front of them, without going any further.
"It's my turn now!"
Blocking the fatal sword from continuing to fall, the voice that Sber and the others were familiar with——
