Chapter 548 Let’s have fun
When he mentioned the word wanted criminal, Lin Zhongtian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Tong Shen with a half-smile.
Under his gaze, cold sweat broke out on Tong Shen's back, and he laughed sarcastically and said, "If I say that I wasn't the one who reported it to the police, would you believe it?"
Lin Zhongtian said with a half-smile, "What do you think?"
Tong Shen blinked, then suddenly turned around and ran outside the house, shouting: "Archer, there are enemies here!"
"..."
Lin Zhongtian twitched the corner of his mouth and stretched out his big hand, and Tong Shen returned to him as if he had gone back in time.
"You brat." Lin Zhongtian grabbed Tong Shen's shoulders and sneered, "I sold you the real thing with good intentions, but you actually betrayed me backhand. Do we have to settle the account carefully? ?”
"..."
Tong Shen swallowed in shock and glanced at the unresponsive Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou outside the room. His heart was filled with unbelievable shock and unspeakable fear.
"Brother...brother." Tong Shen suppressed the fear in his heart and whispered carefully, "Grave robbing is against the law."
Lin Zhongtian rolled his eyes and said angrily: "Isn't buying and selling illegal?"
Tong Shen was speechless for a moment, then hesitantly explained: "I have a reason why I have to buy it."
"..." Lin Zhongtian looked at him steadily, and suddenly let go of his hand and said, "Forget it, meeting an old friend in a foreign country is a great joy in life. I have a lot, so I won't bother with you!"
"..."
Tong Shen breathed a sigh of relief, and just when he was about to speak, he suddenly heard Tohsaka Rin's anxious voice coming from the front.
"Tong Shen, hide quickly—no, Archer, protect this house!"
Tong Shen was startled when he heard this and couldn't help but turn his head and look outside the door.
Not far away, in the direction where Saber and Berserker were fighting, an exaggerated ax sword was spinning and flying towards him. The whistling air flow wrapped around the ax sword, making it look extremely powerful.
Hearing Tohsaka Rin's words, Red A jumped off the roof without hesitation, condensing two daggers, one black and one white, in his hands.
But before he could stop the flying ax and sword, a slender hand suddenly stretched out from above his shoulder.
"……when?!"
Hong A's pupils shrank, and he watched helplessly as the big hand stretched out in front of the ax sword, and then within a thousandth of a second, he slightly bent his fingers and accurately flicked the flying blade of the ax sword.
"call--"
The whistling air flow turned into a violent wind and swept away. The ax sword spinning at high speed stagnated slightly, and then broke through the sound barrier in an instant, carrying layers of sonic boom clouds and blasting away in the direction from which it came.
At this time, Berserker was still roaring on the spot.
The next moment, the rotating ax sword cut off his head, and then flew towards the temple wall without losing any momentum. After easily piercing the wall, he disappeared into the woods outside the temple.
"Swiss, swish -"
Flocks of birds fly together from the forest.
Saber held the invisible sword and stared blankly at the body that suddenly knelt down in front of her.
In front of the house not far away from her, Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou stared blankly at the headless body in front of them, then turned their heads stiffly, looking at the red A who was also stunned in place, and the man who appeared behind him. Tall figure.
Lin Zhongtian didn't pay attention to the gazes of the two people. He just patted the shoulder of the red-clothed hero in front of him and said lightly.
"Let's play while we're at it."
After saying that, Lin Zhongtian turned around nonchalantly and returned to the stunned Tong Shen.
"…who are you?"
Tong Shen came back to his senses and asked in a difficult tone.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "I didn't plan to see you so early, but I have something to leave for a while, so I came over in advance to speed up your process."
"..."
Tong Shen looked at Lin Zhongtian blankly.
He understood these words individually, but together, why couldn't he understand them?
"……What's the meaning?"
"You will soon understand."
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly, and then turned his gaze to Lu Bu, who was shrouded in light.
…
‘High-speed divine words·space replacement! ’
Purple light suddenly appeared, and huge magic power instantly gathered in front of Medea, trying to exchange the space in front of her with the space behind Lu Bu.
But at this moment, there was a flash of silver light around him, and the slightly fluctuating space was forcibly frozen by some force. Fang Tian's painted halberd, which was supposed to be stabbed at his back by the space displacement, actually penetrated Medea in an instant. body.
"Pfft——"
The dark halberd blade passed through her chest, Medea spat out a mouthful of blood, and the hood on her head fell off.
Long light blue hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and two pointed ears popped out from between the hair. On the delicate and beautiful face, a pair of light blue pupils like the clear sky looked at Lu Bu in front of him in fear.
"...It's actually an elf?"
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, but he still did not hesitate to lift Medea's body high and throw it to the ground fiercely.
"call--"
The whistling wind blew past his ears. Lu Bu swung his halberd without looking back, and struck the figure behind him with the halberd's face.
Soichiro Kuzuki spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body shot towards the rear like a cannonball out of its barrel.
Originally he should have hit the city wall not far behind him, but at this moment, the barrier of Hulao Pass seemed to have suddenly become fragile, and he was directly hit by Kuzuki Soichiro's flying body, turning into points of light and dissipating.
"boom!"
After crashing through the silver light shield, Soichiro Kuzuki flew seven or eight meters away, fell to the ground, and rolled three or four times in a row before barely stopping in front of Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou.
Seeing Kuzuki Soichiro's face covered in blood, Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou were slightly startled.
The latter ignored the astonishingly powerful human young man just now and hurriedly knelt down and tried to help Kuzuki Soichiro up.
"Teacher Kuzumu, are you okay?"
Before Emiya Shirou could reach out his hand, Tohsaka Rin silently stopped him.
"Emiya-san, don't forget, Kuzugi-sensei is Caster's master..."
"..."
Emiya Shirou was slightly startled, and then his expression became complicated.
Red A looked thoughtfully at Medea, whose figure had become somewhat blurred, and analyzed softly: "So it turns out that when the being named for the duel is on the verge of death, the barrier will disappear, and other people who are pulled into the duel will Challengers will not be implicated.”
"Good analysis!"
Lu Bu's figure walked out of the silver light shield, glanced at Hong A with admiration, and then saw Lin Zhongtian not far behind him.
"Forest……"
Lu Bu's face was full of astonishment, and he subconsciously said a word.
But then, he came to his senses and quickly changed his words: "Near death is not the only condition for the barrier to disappear. Subjective defeat or direct surrender can also invalidate the duel barrier!"
"..."
The corner of Hong A's mouth twitched as she looked at Lu Bu, as if she didn't expect that this guy would actually tell such important information directly.
Not only him, Lin Zhongtian was also a little helpless.
He knew that Lu Bu was trying to make up for his mistake, but there was no need to exchange information, right?
"I see……"
Soichiro Kuzuki spit out the blood, put his hands on the ground, and stood up reluctantly.
Lu Bu raised his brows slightly, put away his slightly panicked expression, and turned to look at Soichiro Kuzuki.
I saw the other party calmly putting on a fighting posture, and an unspeakable murderous aura rising from his body.
Emiya Shirou was stunned when he saw this, and couldn't help but said: "Teacher Kuzumu, Caster has been defeated and will dissipate soon. You have no reason to continue fighting... As long as you give up the Holy Grail and give up fighting, we will definitely Won’t hurt you!”
"He's right..."
A weak voice came from the side. Lu Bu turned his head slightly and looked at Medea, who was kneeling on the ground, covered in blood and her body had become somewhat insubstantial.
She endured the pain and raised her head, looked at Soichiro Kuzuki and begged: "Master, I did what I did tonight without telling you. I only have to bear the consequences... You are not his opponent. Doing this will only Death in vain.”
"Yes, I am indeed no match for him."
Kuzuki Soichiro said calmly: "But since I accepted your request, there is no reason to give up halfway. In the final analysis, this matter started with me, and it will naturally end with me..."
Upon hearing Soichiro Kuzuki's words, Medea was startled for a moment, and then showed an extremely beautiful smile.
"I understand, then let me enjoy your final battle, Soichiro..."
Looking at Medea who was smiling brightly, Tong Shen suddenly felt like she had won but also lost.
"How does it feel to eat a wolf on the spot?"
Lin Zhongtian held his shoulders and asked cheerfully.
Tong Shen was startled for a moment, a strange feeling arose in his heart about this sentence.
But before he could think about it, the stone bricks under Soichiro Kuzuki's feet suddenly exploded.
The body in tattered pajamas turned into an arrow and rushed towards Lu Bu with its afterimages.
When approaching Lu Bu, Kuzuki Soichiro's right arm hanging by his side was slightly raised, and it suddenly thrust out as if it was loaded with a spring.
"咻咻咻——"
In just a few breaths, a dozen fist shadows that were difficult to discern with the naked eye struck Lu Bu's head.
But Lu Bu just shook his head slightly and easily dodged them one by one.
"The movements are much slower than before. Has the strengthening effect of magic ended?"
Lu Bu said such a sentence calmly, then suddenly waved his arm, grabbed Soichiro Kuzuki's neck, and lifted him high.
Seeing Kuzuki Soichiro struggling in Lu Bu's palm, Medea not only did not feel sad, but she felt even happier.
Lu Bu sighed softly: "For the sake of you fighting with all your strength, I will let you die without pain..."
Before he finished speaking, Lu Bu used his fingers slightly.
Kuzuki Soichiro's eyes opened slightly, and then he completely lost his voice.
"Back to you……"
Lu Bu threw Kuzuki Soichiro's body to Medea.
Medea quickly caught it, then held Kuzuki Soichiro's head, looking at the lifeless eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and her body gradually turned into a shining point of light, dissipating in the air.
"alright!"
Lin Zhongtian suddenly clapped his hands, waking everyone with complicated expressions from their daze.
Except for Berserker, who was resurrected from the dead, and Saber, who was fighting the former, everyone, including Hong A, Tohsaka Rin, Emiya Shirou, Tong Shen and Lu Bu, set their sights on Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "For some reasons, the progress of the Holy Grail War will be accelerated!"
"Always hiding in the dark to fight, somewhat disgraceful to the name of the Holy Grail, so I decided to build a magnificent exhibition stand for you as the final battlefield of the Holy Grail War!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly and stretched out his right hand in front of everyone's stunned gazes.
The next second, there was a trembling roar from the earth, and the ground beneath their feet rumbled upward as everyone watched in shock...
