Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan

"Thanks, Saber."

Lion Jie Jieli felt that his vision was a little blurry, which was due to weakness caused by excessive blood loss. Beside him, the trees were flying backward quickly, which meant that he was moving at an extremely fast speed.

"Hmph! Get ready, I'm going to speed up, I'm not sure if that guy will catch up!"

Mordred just snorted coldly without meaning, and continued to carry the lion Jie Jieli, moving at high speed with agile and fast running movements.

"Oh, I'm really unlucky. I didn't expect to encounter such a strong enemy. What's going on with that little girl? She feels like she's better at using modern weapons than me."

Lion Jie Jieli smiled happily, reached out from his bag and took out a pill that could enhance his physical fitness and swallowed it. Although this pill couldn't help him stop bleeding, it was enough to keep him in the next activities. Survive.

After confirming that his Master was ready, Mordred used his magic power to release it very simply. With his terrifying mobility, he was "ejected" out of the jungle in an instant.

There was a sharp tinnitus in his ears, and Lion Barrier immediately swallowed another pill. Although the side effects would be relatively strong, it could at least suppress his panic.

But he also knew very well that such measures were just for peace of mind. After all, if Mordred let go in this situation, he would turn into a puddle of meat no matter what.

After losing sight of the battlefield behind him, Mordred finally slowed down his original subsonic speed to about two hundred kilometers per hour.

However, Lion Nodule's face was already quite ugly at this time. After all, although the impact of each jump would be offset by Mordred's sliding action on the ground, he still felt that his abdomen was like It's like being punched by a heavyweight boxer.

Da da da.

After several small jumps and stepping on the ground, Mordred finally slowed down completely, and then he safely placed the Master he was carrying on the ground.

As soon as his feet touched the ground, although the pain from his legs made him take a breath, Lion Jie Jieli still felt extremely happy. After all, no matter how painful it was, it was safer than the previous feeling of not touching the ground. many.

"Thanks, Saber, it would be nice if you could be more gentle next time you move with me... What's wrong with you?!"

It was only then that Lion Jie Jieli realized that something was not right about his followers.

Mordred half-knelt on the ground, inserting the long sword in his hand into the ground as a support, breathing heavily with some difficulty.

As the armor on her body turned into spirit particles and dissipated, Lion Jie Jieli discovered that there was an unusually ferocious-looking sword wound on Mordred's back, and the other arm seemed a little twisted.

At this moment, Lion Jie Jieli suddenly understood that this was the price Mordred paid for suddenly leaving the battlefield during the fierce battle.

Thinking of this, Lion Jie Jieli felt a little guilty. Because of his own drag, Mordred not only gave up the duel with her biggest enemy, King Arthur, but also suffered such serious injuries.

In the next Holy Grail War, there should be few opportunities to find one-on-one battles like before.

"Sorry, Saber..."

"Ah? Were your brains knocked out? Could it be that the previous attack also damaged your brain?"

A little different from what he expected, Mordred still looked full of energy.

"It's just a minor injury. It's nothing to me. It won't take long for it to be completely healed."

Mordred was not bragging. Just from the conversation, the injuries on her body were already showing a clear tendency to heal.

Especially the huge sword mark on the back has shrunk a lot unconsciously.

"That's not what I'm referring to...you should know better." Lion Jie Jieli looked at his follower with some shame.

"Ah? You don't mean to say that you feel ashamed for interrupting the duel between me and that guy because of your own fault, do you?"

Mordred suddenly laughed and patted Lion Jie Jieli's shoulder with his other good hand. However, because the hand was too strong and the effectiveness of the pills in his body had begun to fade, Lion Jie Jieli's injuries began to recur. , coughed twice weakly and almost fainted.

After a lot of fuss, Mordred finally made the lion Jie Jieli "alive" again. She sat next to her master and looked at the sun in the sky.

His tone also relaxed a lot, not at all the bitter and hateful look he had when he heard the news about King Arthur at the beginning.

"You don't have to take it too seriously. This is my voluntary choice. In fact, if you think about it carefully, I have already fought with that guy before I was alive. With the strength gap between the two of us, no matter what I do, Anger can't solve the problem. Besides, my wish is not to really fight with her, but to make her recognize my ability and make her regret not choosing me as the king's heir."

After saying a rare series of words, Mordred turned to look at Lion Jie Jieli: "So, Master, I am going to win the final victory of the Holy Grail War this time and show her that we are How big is the ability gap between them!"

"It's such a good momentum, I'm also excited."

After Lion Jie Jieli dealt with his injuries urgently, he lay on the ground and looked up at the sky, but his tone was full of bitterness.

"The only question now is... if we want to win this Holy Grail War, how can we deal with that guy?"

"Huh? What?"

"That's it, the temple that has been floating in the sky in the distance since just now." Lion Jie Jieli pointed at the sky next to him.

After Mordred turned his head and saw the temple mentioned by Lion Jie Jieli, his whole face froze.

"How about I go back and continue fighting with my father?"

"Allow me to refuse!!!"

…

…

The battlefield where Emiya Shirou is.

He stood on the empty street, looking at the two people fighting in the distance, and his heart was filled with worry.

Fortunately, just as Jekyll said, the improvement brought about by his practice of magic during this period is indeed not bad. At least during this short battle, he has been able to continue to supply Hyde's magic power consumption.

With enough magic power as a source of energy, although Hyde has always been at a disadvantage in the battle with Beowulf, he will not lose as miserably as the previous battle.

This gave Emiya Shirou some comfort. After all, he had seen the number of magic circuits in his sister, so since he developed his own magic ability, he has always felt inferior to the number of magic circuits in his body. .

The only thing he can do now is to wait for the battle on the other side to decide the outcome.

Emiya Shirou had no doubts about Illya's victory. He had seen his father training Illya. Although the young and ignorant Shirou Emiya strongly asked his father to train him together, he had no magic power. Despite his persistence, he only managed to hold on for less than a week before giving up. He could only ask Emiya Kiritsugu to tailor a training plan for him.

Recalling that hellish scene, even Emiya Shirou couldn't help but shudder. After knowing the power of magic, Emiya Shirou knew even more clearly that Illya, who had experienced such inhuman training, It is definitely not something that ordinary people can defeat, even if the enemy is a magician he has never understood.

Suddenly, Emiya Shirou felt something in his heart, it was like a giant flying thing was coming.

Without hesitation, he followed Emiya Kiritsugu's previous instructions and hid himself in a bunker. After taking a defensive stance, he raised his head and looked at the sky.

In less than two seconds, a small black shadow appeared in the sky directly above Shirou Emiya, which was a bit dazzling due to the noon sun, and then this giant object flying towards him in a clear arc in the air appeared in front of his eyes. Landing".

This is an astonishing behemoth with an astonishingly huge stature and overwhelming mass.

It was obviously bigger than a large truck, but it didn't make any impact when it landed.

That giant thing seemed to be able to strangle the laws of physics, ignoring its own speed and mass, turning the deadly energy generated by the collision of the solid road surface with its huge body into a wave that only blew gently within a few dozen meters around it. breeze.

The breeze seemed so harmonious that even Shirou Emiya, who was close to the giant object, could only feel the hair on his head fluttering.

Not sure if it was an illusion, Emiya Shirou even felt that he saw an "elegant" look on the giant creature in front of him.

The face is human, the body is lion.

Wearing a distinctive ornament on his head, he has the body of a lion, the king of beasts.

Its face was solemn and somewhat sacred. After landing, it looked down at the two Servants fighting below with its lightless eyes.

"Sphinx?!"

Emiya Shirou was inexplicably amazed. The other person's image was so special and conspicuous. Even though he had never seen the real thing, his name came to mind the moment he saw the other person.

It was a giant beast that should not appear in modern times. It was a monster spread in legends from ancient Greece and Babylonia. It was also a beast that left many legends in the Mediterranean to Western Asia.

In the legend of ancient Egypt, it is the incarnation of the god in charge of the sky on the earth's surface, a specific image of fire and wind, and an awe-inspiring four-legged sacred beast.

Alias: Father of Terror (Abul Hool).

In the judgment of the magician, it has even surpassed the level of Warcraft, and is a species that only exists in legends and fantasies.

The so-called "fantasy species" are monsters that can only exist in human imagination in modern times, and are only mentioned in ancient legends.

They do not belong to any known life, but are formed by the direct transformation of mystery into reality.

It is second only to the dragon clan and is also the top existence among the fantasy beasts.

"Ho ho ho ho!!!"

This huge beast that suddenly appeared on the battlefield roared violently. Its originally calm face was distorted by anger. It was full of hostility and a beast-like expression, revealing the same teeth as "humans".

And as he roared into the sky, the balance on the field was broken again.

Emiya Shirou felt that he might be crazy, because he had been observing from the side and suddenly had a feeling that the reason why the giant beast in front of him was so angry was entirely because of the two servants in front who had been trapped in their desire to fight. caused.

Perhaps for this phantom beast, it came here with a arrogant attitude of "saying hello" at first, but after being nakedly ignored here, the arrogant phantom beast naturally became angry.

Perhaps in its view, not only did it not meet him after meeting him, but it still fought rudely, it was the biggest disrespect to it as a fantasy beast.

And as the sphinx roared with a roar full of fighting desire, the two servants who had been immersed in hostility finally discovered this unexpected visitor.

Although both of them appear to be very clear-headed under normal circumstances, their class is Berserker after all. Once it comes to fighting, both of them will become extremely selfless and fanatical.

Creatures that are not hostile will not be targeted by them, but similarly, once any creature exudes a desire to fight, they will not hesitate to classify it as their prey.

The moment the Sphinx showed its hostility, the two servants abandoned their opponents without hesitation and charged towards the huge phantom beast with a roar.

"Ooohhohohoho!"

The wild posture and inhuman roar made these two servants look more like beasts than the wiser sphinx.

Facing the two people's joint attacks, this proud phantom beast launched an attack on the two people below without hesitation.

Wow!

Accompanied by the sound of crushing sand and stones, it was just an ordinary claw strike, but the destructive effect caused was astonishing.

The asphalt road collapsed into sand under its huge claws, and the trees planted on the hillside were shattered in this attack. The metal fences beside the mountain road also became twisted in the aftermath of the attack.

Wan Yi's catch is not the end, it can even be said to be the clarion call for the battle to begin.

The Sphinx shows a faster speed than lions, tigers and other beasts. It is so huge and agile at the same time, and the speed of the claws at the end of its limbs is even more conceivable.

The destructive power of the fangs and claws far exceeds the appearance, coupled with the terrifying speed of sweeping sweeps, the destructive sounds and shock waves that echo in all directions after each attack tell of the terrifying power.

Facing the attack of the giant beast, the two servants showed completely different ways of responding.

Hyde's response was as rough as ever, and he did not hesitate to dodge or give in when faced with a claw that was as big as his own body.

Of course, the consequence of this reckless behavior is that he will be knocked away by a terrifying force in the next moment, but the moment he comes into contact with the enemy, Hyde still shows his own rage.

Nails, fists, and even sharp teeth. Every time Hyde comes into contact with the Sphinx, he will use up all the "weapons" on his body to cause the greatest damage to the enemy as much as possible.

As the top holy beast, the sphinx's skin defense is extremely terrifying, and it can even be immune to damage from Noble Phantasms below C level. This means that most single-target human weapons can do very limited damage to it.

However, as a Berserker, Hyde's physical attributes are ridiculously strong after his transformation, even without the blessing of other Noble Phantasms.

Whether it's the nails that look like daggers or the teeth that don't look like human structures at all, their destructive power has definitely reached the upper limit of sharpness of a C-level Noble Phantasm.

Therefore, although Hyde's attack cannot cause much damage to the Sphinx, it is enough to make it feel pain.

After repeated confrontations like this several times, even a phantom beast as arrogant as the Sphinx did not want to continue fighting when faced with Hyde, a "hand-pricking cockroach".

Beowulf on the other side has a completely different fighting style from Hyde.

Beowulf changed from his violent attitude when fighting Hyde, and instead constantly used the mountain walls on the ground to shuttle back and forth, dodging the Sphinx's attacks one by one.

While dodging attacks, he kept his eyes fixed on the center of the giant beast, outlining its entire body, observing the opponent's attack habits, breathing between consecutive attacks, etc., in order to wait for the opponent to find a flaw.

He is very good at this kind of fighting. After all, he has fought against giant beasts more than once or twice in his lifetime, so when faced with these, each claw and tooth is longer than his height, and the speed is faster than the tomahawk swung by a tall warrior. Beowulf has accumulated quite a lot of experience in fighting tougher monsters.

Through observation, Beowulf also found that the enemy's IQ should be quite high, and he knew how to use his flying ability to launch an all-round attack with changing attack combinations while constantly moving the whole body, and he was also always protecting his body's weaknesses. .

Even... they will also perform fake actions to contain them.

When launching an attack, they deliberately destroy the cliff face, splash debris, and intersperse "meaningless attacks." Although the damage to the servants by such attacks without magic power is quite limited, to some extent, these attacks will also cause undesirable damage to them. Small impact.

This means that the giant beast in front of him knows exactly what Beowulf is thinking, so he acted like this.

boom!

It was another violent blow. Although it did not hit Beowulf, the various cement and rock fragments splashed out by the sharp claws hitting the ground flew towards Beowulf like bullets.

And just as Beowulf was trying to dodge, the Sphinx used all four limbs together for the first time and pounced with all its strength.

The sudden burst of speed made Beowulf's prediction wrong. He had no time to dodge, so he could only assume a defensive posture and choose to fight head-on.

boom! ! !

As if being hit by a loaded truck, Beowulf's body, which looked unusually thin in front of the giant beast, kept retreating on the ground, his feet making two clearly visible lines on the hard asphalt road. Mark of.

"What a heavy attack. The attack power is beyond imagination."

This sentence flashed through Beowulf's brain, which had been eroded by the desire to fight. Unlike the giant beasts he had faced before his death, this monster was almost as good as the evil dragon he had fought before.

Under such impact, all the bones in the body were creaking, as if the whole body would be broken in the next moment.

Therefore, Beowulf chose to guide the force of the Sphinx's attack, changing from receiving the force from the front to unloading force to the side. At the same time, he quickly turned sideways and jumped, using the magic power released in a moment to greatly improve his mobility. , widening the distance between the two parties.

However, the sphinx's dexterity is beyond imagination. It has no intention of playing the game of advancing and retreating between attack ranges with Beowulf, and pursues him without hesitation when the other party escapes.

"Tsk! Trouble, you were careless."

Continuing to return to the previous rhythm of constantly dodging the opponent's attacks, Beowulf's eyes unconsciously looked towards the place where he had thrown away his weapon.

He had left behind the Akhara Hound in order to activate his Noble Phantasm before, but when facing such a giant beast, the huge giant sword was obviously better than his fists.

It's not that Beowulf didn't try his best to retrieve his sword, but every time he made such a move, the giant beast changed its attack posture as if it had predicted it in advance, forcing Beowulf back to where he was. .

After trying it once or twice, Beowulf realized that the giant beast in front of him was more difficult than imagined. In addition to his excellent combat ability, this guy probably also had an ability similar to "future vision".

In fact, Beowulf had a good idea. As the top holy beast, the Sphinx has a "revelation" exclusive to the holy beast.

Although you cannot see the future as clearly as future vision, you can still get reminders and make correct judgments when facing dangers.

"Ouch!"

An inhuman roar came, and Hyde, who had been knocked out before, got up again and rushed toward the Sphinx without fear.

His current situation is quite bad. He had already suffered a lot of injuries in the previous battle with Beowulf, and the injuries on his body were quite serious after being attacked continuously by the Sphinx. Although he has the ability to recover at a super speed, he is still The recovery speed can no longer keep up with an attack of this intensity.

Seeing another troublesome insect rushing up again, the Sphinx became irritated. Its huge body suddenly turned over, and the huge pressure rushed towards it. Beowulf almost had no time to avoid it, so he could only roll around like a lazy donkey. Opened the opponent's attack.

Before he could adjust his posture, a huge claw roared out, easily destroying the rocks and ground.

boom!

The raging storm spread out and scratched Beowulf's face raw.

This is a magic shock. The sphinx's intelligence is enough for it to learn and use magic to release, so every blow will send out a violent shock wave.

Even if he was not hit directly, this shock wave would be fatal enough for ordinary people. If it were not for some anti-magic power, Beowulf would have been knocked away by this time and then killed by the Sphinx in the air.

Hyde, who had just come closer, was also knocked away. This time, the main target of the sphinx's attack was him, so the damage he received was quite serious, and even a lot of the nails on his hands were broken.

"Ho ho ho!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the huge holy beast roared loudly, and in an instant, a tornado of flames that was about to burn the enemy to pieces erupted from its mouth and struck at Hyde who was lying on the ground.

The blazing flames scorched the atmosphere, instantly burning the trees on both sides of the hillside into charcoal. The unabated flame tornado hit the metal railing in the distance. Within a few seconds, the metal railing that was completely made of metal The thick railings melted like sugar balls.

After the flames finally subsided, the ground on the asphalt road turned into a pool of molten magma, and Hyde lay motionless next to the magma, with only the faint sound of breathing indicating that he was still alive.

At the critical moment, Hyde exploded with his final strength and moved his body slightly to avoid the frontal impact of the flames.

But even so, most of his body has been completely burned, and he can no longer even maintain Hyde's posture. The alienated body slowly dissipates, revealing Jekyll's appearance.

"Berserker!"

Shirou Emiya was startled and ran out of his bunker regardless of the danger. He quickly ran to Jekyll's side, dragged his body and moved quickly to a safe area, trying to pull him out of the battlefield.

Fortunately, the sphinx was not interested in the enemy that had lost its fighting ability. It just exhaled two high-temperature smoke rings from its nose and then turned to look at Beowulf next to him. At this time, he had already taken advantage of the previous situation. Chance got his own weapon.

"Come on! Let's have a second round of fighting...fuck!"

Before Beowulf finished speaking, his expression changed, and his whole body suddenly jumped to the side.

"Die to me!!!"

A roar that sounded a little childish came from the jungle at the foot of the mountain, followed by Arturia who used magic power to jump from the woods into the air and Ilia on her back. .

The roar just now was made by Illya. At this time, her hand was no longer a submachine gun, but a rather violent-looking weapon-a personal anti-tank rocket launcher.

Although Illya's shooting posture was not standard due to being carried on Artoria's back, the moment Artorya jumped up, she had already aimed this powerful destructive weapon at the lion's body. Beast with a human face.

Strengthening Magic: Whole body strengthening.

Rocket enchantment: inherent timing·double speed.

Rocket Enchantment: Spiral Blast.

Rocket Enchantment: Accurate Tracking.

…

Illya's body once again lit up with dense magic circuits, and a large amount of enhanced magic was released on herself and the weapons in her hands in an instant, making this weapon, which originally represented the most destructive power of a single soldier, even more lethal. layer.

Because she used too much magic in one moment, her body was under a huge load. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her internal organs also suffered from heartbreaking pain.

But soon, these side effects were instantly cured by neural-level magic circuits.

After confirming that the enemy had been locked, Illya pulled the trigger without hesitation towards the giant beast that spread its wings and tried to escape.

The rockets that had been specially modified long ago were launched. The sharp projectiles were covered with dense magic markings. This was. The final product was carved by the last two cyborgs of the Einsbern family. Its power was so powerful that even the holy beast in front of it could not withstand it without injury.

With the blessing of the inherent timing and a series of other acceleration magic, the rocket hit the huge body of the sphinx almost the moment it came out of the barrel.

Then there was an explosion!

Boom!

A huge fireball exploded in mid-air, completely covering the Sphinx's huge body. When the smoke from the explosion dissipated, the sacred beast that had just taken off fell from the air with a howl, its skin scorched black - it was finally injured.

After landing, the Sphinx still wanted to spread its wings and leave again, but when Ilia shot before, it was the wings on its back that were aimed at. Under such huge power, one of the wings on one side of its body was completely broken. , leaving only broken bones and flesh and blood.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Arturia, who had placed Illya on the ground, rushed forward waving her invisible sword. Beowulf on the other side also waved his huge Akhara hound and attacked.

Facing two extremely high-level Noble Phantasms, the Sphinx no longer had the calmness it had before. High enough wisdom brings a grasp of the pros and cons. After confirming that the opponent will be injured if it attacks the opponent, its attacks become With his hands and feet tied, although his destructive power was still strong, he was suppressed and beaten by two servants for a while.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Illya threw away the anti-tank rocket launcher in her hand and activated the replacement magic again.

However, this time it took a little long for her to activate the replacement magic. Even when all the magic circuits in her body were working, it still took three seconds to complete the replacement.

What was replaced at such a high cost was the most destructive equipment in Illya's arsenal - the M777 howitzer.

This howitzer was just designed this year (2004). It was a birthday gift given to Illya by Emiya Kiritsugu using all his contacts.

This cutting-edge howitzer, which has been sublimated by magic and technology many times, is 10.7 meters long. Its ferocious appearance, gorgeous sense of technology, and mysterious runes all over the barrel give it a unique aesthetic.

Because it is a trial work and has undergone a lot of modifications, this howitzer can only fire one shell. After firing, the barrel will overheat and explode when firing the second round.

However, such extreme transformation also created absolute destructive power.

What's more, if this howitzer wants to operate, it will require the cooperation of at least seven or eight people. Illya alone is not capable of firing the second shell.

The howitzer has already been loaded with ammunition. If this 155 mm artillery shell uses a special armor-piercing projectile, it can easily penetrate a reinforced concrete fortress even before modification.

Now, this terrifying weapon is targeting monsters from myths and legends.

What is loaded inside is not an ordinary cannonball, but a specially modified origin cannonball that Emiya Kiritsugu dismantled most of his remaining origination bombs!

Illya slightly adjusted the barrel and aimed it at the sphinx, which was entangled by the two servants. She licked the blood flowing out from the side of her lips, with a look of eagerness in her eyes.

"Goodbye, big cat!"

boom! ! !
