Although he and Matou Shinji had known each other since they were in middle school, he couldn't recognize him at all after their appearance changed.
Must run.
Emiya Shirou forced himself to stand up.
For some reason, he felt a force slowly growing in his body, making his wounds seem less painful.
"Emiya, I have no patience."
Matou Shinji waved his hand, and a black shadow immediately penetrated Emiya Shirou's right leg and ankle.
"Ahhh!"
Emiya Shirou finally couldn't bear the screams.
The possibility of escaping was completely eliminated due to this attack.
With his strength, it was impossible to escape with an injured leg.
The only thing he was lucky about was that Taiga Fujimura didn't come home in time.
Blood almost stained most of the warehouse red.
On the ground where no one cares, there is a faint blue light flowing.
"Emiya, why do you even want to go against me?!"
Matou Shinji was completely angered.
He has no time.
Astarte and Scathach may find him at any time.
He originally thought that after becoming the Little Holy Grail, he would not be afraid of followers.
But Astarte's strength far exceeded his imagination.
"Since you don't want to say anything, let's stop here."
The black shadow behind Matou Shinji rose high like the god of death.
Suddenly, white light flashed.
The girl in armor wielded an invisible weapon and chopped the black shadow away.
"Saber?"
Matou Shinji was startled for a moment, then yelled, "Damn it, when did this happen?!"
He didn't notice any trace of the summons at all.
And if she had been summoned long ago, Emiya Shirou would not have waited until now to let her out.
The only explanation is that it was just summoned.
When thinking about this situation, Matou Shinji felt uncomfortable.
It feels like my wife was snatched away right in front of me.
But he didn't have time to say anything.
Because the girl has already rushed over.
Matou Shinji quickly retreated, avoiding the girl's fatal blow.
The invisible knight's sword fell to the ground, suddenly exploding a huge crater.
Matou Shinji also reacted quickly, and under his control, the black shadow quickly flew across the ground.
Even if it is summoned, he can still use the Holy Grail to snatch it back.
After all, all the Servants participating in the Holy Grail War were essentially summoned by the Holy Grail.
"careful!"
Emiya Shirou couldn't help shouting.
The girl didn't reply. She stepped on her feet and immediately jumped up. She held the invisible knight's sword with both hands and stabbed forward.
The black shadow obviously took a step slower and followed her.
The wind howled.
It suddenly turned into a swirling stream of light, and burst out with a swishing sound.
Blood splatters.
Matou Shinji fell heavily.
The clothes in front of him were completely destroyed, revealing a rotating wound inside.
But he didn't hesitate at all and shouted: "You are mine!"
Dark shadows cover the girl.
She didn't know the nature of the black shadow and thought it was just an ordinary magic attack, so she didn't pay attention.
Because she wears armor and has A-level magic resistance, ordinary magic has no effect on her.
But then I finally realized something was wrong.
An unimaginable filth seemed to drag her into hell.
Even the noble King of Knights cannot resist this corrupting power.
Matou Shinji showed an excited expression.
Success is imminent!
In an instant, a flash of white light exploded above Artoria's head.
The originally invincible black shadow actually came to a standstill.
The experienced Arturia would naturally not let go of such an opportunity.
The knight's sword in her hand opened a gap, and her petite body escaped immediately.
"who?"
Matou Shinji's face froze and he said angrily, "Who dares to ruin my good deeds?!"
No one answered.
Facing you are three rubies.
The dazzling red light exploded, and Matou Shinji flew backwards.
But even if his skin is bruised and bruised, he is still full of vigor and vitality.
"It's you again!"
Matou Shinji gritted his teeth and looked at Astarte.
Her speed was too fast, otherwise, he would have wanted to use the shadow to contaminate this guy into his servant.
But he can't touch it.
"Are you okay?"
Astarte asked casually.
"fine."
Artoria shook her head slightly.
Because she was standing behind her, she couldn't see Astarte's face.
But it can also be concluded that she is a Servant.
As Artoria, who participated in the last Holy Grail War, the current situation is not unfamiliar.
The only strange thing is who Matou Shinji is.
He is not a Servant, but that black shadow has such terrifying power.
Immediately afterwards, Scathach fell behind Shinji Matou, blocking his possibility of escaping.
"Three followers..."
No matter how arrogant Matou Shinji is, he still understands that the current situation is particularly fatal.
His shadow is certainly a sharp weapon, and any servant summoned by the Holy Grail War will have a hard time resisting it.
In the original work, Gilgamesh was also assimilated and killed instantly due to his carelessness.
But Servants are not fixed targets after all. As long as you are serious, it will be extremely difficult to hit them.
Previously, there was Hassan, the cursed arm, who could make sneak attacks in secret, but now he was the only one.
After excluding the black shadow, Matou Shinji is just a magician with nearly infinite magic power.
Scathach's figure flashed.
At a terrifying speed, all the magic power was concentrated in the spear, and the unimaginable sharpness penetrated Matou Shinji in an instant.
Blood splattered.
Artoria looked stern, what a fast gun.
This follower is not simple.
Scathach drew his spear gracefully and retreated to his feet.
Matou Shinji fell to the ground.
"He's not dead."
Li Xiang arrived a step late.
If he remembered correctly, Kuro Sakura was able to resurrect with full health after being dismembered, so it would not be too far behind for Matou Shinji.
At this time, we must rely on the magical sealing technique.
Although you can't kill him, sealing him for a while won't be a problem.
If the Great Holy Grail is dismantled when the time comes, Matou Shinji will naturally die.
"etc."
Astati pulled Li Xiang's sleeves and said, "Let me do it."
She took out a Saint Quartz.
Under Li Xiang's somewhat surprised gaze, he crushed it into pieces.
Immediately his eyes changed.
The whole person is in the universe.
Arturia, Scathach and others outside saw Astarte, Li Xiang and Matou Shinji disappear for no reason.
Enveloped by endless starlight.
Li Xiang looked extremely amazed.
Matou Shinji, on the other hand, looked horrified.
He had no idea what was going on.
After being resurrected with full health, he originally wanted to find an opportunity to pollute one of the three servants and then counterattack.
But suddenly I was pulled into this universe.
The bright golden light in my thoughts reflects the stars.
A behemoth occupying half of the universe appeared in front of Matou Shinji and Li Xiang.
Astarte in red dress.
Matou Shinji was stunned on the spot.
Li Xiang looked at this familiar scene and said subconsciously: "Universe Lin's Noble Phantasm, I just don't know whether it is a red card, a green card or a blue card."
Astarte raised his hand.
The stars are at her fingertips.
Countless golden lights covered the sky.
Matou Shinji was instantly wiped out.
It really feels like an anti-aircraft gun shooting mosquitoes.
Soon Li Xiang returned to Earth.
Astarte blinked and asked with a smile: "Does it look good?"
She worked very hard to control the power of the Noble Phantasm without endangering other creatures.
Otherwise, she could completely encompass the entire galaxy.
But it's too wasteful.
In other universes, you can save money if you can.
The most important thing is not to hurt the Master.
"nice."
Li Xiang nodded and answered.
In fact, he didn't have much intuitive feeling about Astarte's strength.
Because the game is a game, he is not sure about the actual situation since he has never seen it.
But I just had a clear understanding.
"that……"
The forgotten Shirou Emiya finally spoke.
He has recovered from his extremely serious injuries.
After all, the scabbard of Avalon was buried in his body by his father.
Now that Artoria appears, the scabbard's powerful recovery ability begins to take effect.
Emiya Shirou looked at the five people in front of him, and finally stopped at the only one he knew, Li Xiang, and asked: "Li Xiang, can you tell me what the situation is now?"
He was first abused by strangers, then rescued by a strange girl in armor, and then four people appeared, including one of his classmates.
In just a few minutes, it can be described as a huge ups and downs.
He was completely confused.
"Your name is Li Xiang?"
Artoria suddenly turned her head, looked at him, and asked, "Fujimaru Ritsuka?"
"..."
Li Xiang suddenly remembered that she was no ordinary heroic spirit. Like Scathach, her true body was still alive.
Hassan, the cursed man he met earlier, did not recognize him.
So does Gilgamesh.
But if he turned on clairvoyance, he should be able to know.
"You'd better take care of your Master first."
Astarte curled his lips and said.
So annoying.
Can't you be more serious about participating in the Holy Grail War?
Why are you staring at other people's Masters all day long?
Arturia was stunned for a moment, then walked up to Shirou Emiya and asked: "Master, how is your situation?"
"Thank you, I'm fine."
Emiya Shirou also felt a little strange, how could his body recover so quickly today.
But he was quickly attracted by Artoria's name.
"You call me Master? Who are you?"
"I am a servant, that is, a familiar."
Arturia knew from his appearance that he knew nothing about the Holy Grail War.
Because it was his blood that triggered the summoning circle that Emiya Kiritsugu left in the warehouse, and she was summoned.
Li Xiang glanced at them and stopped caring.
"It's a little strange."
He frowned and said, "How could Matou Zōyan just watch Matou Shinji die?"
It's not that they have a deep love for each other, but that Matou Shinji was transformed into the Little Holy Grail, which is naturally related to Matou Zouken's reincarnation plan.
Li Xiang didn't believe that he was willing to give up.
"I didn't see soul bugs on Matou Shinji."
Astarte added in time.
Li Xiang was thoughtful.
Was it because he didn't have time, or did Matou Zouken not care at all?
But no matter what it is, it means something unusual behind it.
Now that the plot has changed significantly, Li Xiang can't guess what Matou Zangyan wants to do.
"It's getting late, let's go back."
Astarte suggested, "Shirou Emiya and his servants can't finish talking for a while, so there's no need for us to stay."
"I said hello to them."
Li Xiang nodded, walked up to them, and said, "Weigong, see you tomorrow. Also, I hope you can make up your mind as soon as possible."
After all, there is a future you who is already sharpening your sword.
If you hesitate, you will be killed by yourself.
"Thanks."
Although Emiya Shirou didn't quite understand what he meant, he did get help from Li Xiang today.
Arturia hesitated to speak, and finally watched the four of them leave.
Returning to the room in the Ghost Mansion, Li Xiang looked at the time and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock.
Although in his previous life, he often went to bed at twelve o'clock, in this life he is very regular.
Maybe it’s because I don’t have a mobile phone, so I can’t watch videos of beautiful girls dancing.
Scratching the time is like pressing the fast forward button.
The next day arrived in the blink of an eye.
Very scary.
"I'm going to take a shower first."
Although Astarte is a Servant, she is used to human life, so she remains the same as before.
In fact, as a collection of magical powers, servants don't need to eat or take a bath, they are completely like little fairies.
Even clothes can be simulated using magic.
As for Artoria's love for eating, apart from her personal factors, it was because her master, Emiya Shirou, was too half-baked, so she had to save her magic power.
Not even willing to let go of the precious phantom.
Look at Sakura Tohsaka as her master, her precious phantoms are placed the same as those in flat A.
After all, there are too few servants like Astarte, so the master's level is also quite important.
Otherwise, some followers will have no choice but to take desperate risks and harm ordinary humans.
pity.
Li Xiang also wants to try to heal demons.
Ahem.
Back to the topic, today they killed Matou Shinji and the Killer Servant.
At present, swords, bows, and guns have all appeared.
In addition to Tohsaka Rin's Red A and Illya's Uncle B who are almost ready to be booked, there is still one more to go.
Gilgamesh is no longer a Servant. He gained a body during the last Holy Grail War, so he can exist alone.
He can be called a cheater, the eighth servant.
Therefore, according to the situation in the original work, the remaining servant is most likely in the hands of Matou Zouken.
But what Li Xiang didn't expect was that he didn't leave any killing steps.
After all, with Matou Zangyan's skill in operation, the killing step suits him very well.
If this is the case, the servant in his hands is likely to have a good background.
It is very likely that she will no longer be a Medusa.
"Master, I've finished washing."
Astarte walked out in her pajamas, her exposed skin showing a little red.
It looks quite touching.
Li Xiang quickly walked into the bathroom.
After you're done, go back to bed.
A night of silence.
Li Xiang pushed away the big white legs resting on his body and woke up Astarte.
After breakfast, we came to school.
"There are followers nearby."
As soon as Li Xiang stepped into the school gate, Astarte's voice rang in his ears.
"Artoria?"
He kept walking at a normal speed and asked casually.
"no."
Astarte said softly, "It should be Red A. The aura on his body is almost exactly the same as Shirou Emiya's, but I don't know where it is specifically."
Li Xiang nodded.
I don’t know where Red A is, but Tohsaka Rin is in Class A next to him.
