Chapter 50 Ophelia:

The clattering sound of footsteps echoed densely in the corridor.

Emiya ran at the end of the team.

The Zhou family members in the team, having learned magic, can consume magic power, strengthen their leg strength and become sprinters, running at speeds beyond that of ordinary hybrids.

But Jude Mai and Zero didn't have this ability. They struggled and moved hard, but still ran at the end and gradually fell behind.

Emiya had no choice but to grab one with each hand, drag them and use enhanced magic to run.

"Wow, my arm is about to be torn off!" When they were about to leave the corridor, Jiude Mai couldn't help but complain, "Can't you just pick me up and run?"

"Then I'll have to stop and hug him, and my speed will be very low!" Emiya ran furiously, took a breath and said, "It should be fine if it's Zero!"

Are you complaining about my weight? Jiude Mai couldn't help but mutter to herself.

Pat pat pat——

"There are the sounds of horse hooves behind us! The other party is chasing us!" Ling suddenly reminded.

Emiya looked back and saw the guy who looked like Odin was urging the eight-legged Pegasus to gallop swiftly. Every time the hard horse hooves landed on the ground, it would shake the road surface and cause dents. The eight legs galloping together were as powerful as thunder and lightning...

I have to say that creatures with eight legs run faster than those with two legs.

At this time, "Odin" raised his spear, and the front end of the spear reflected a sharp light and swayed in the air, as if trying to lock onto an enemy. Emiya finally saw clearly that this tall and strong figure was coming with great momentum, and there was a low pressure around him. That momentum...

It was as if he was hunting down a thief who had stolen something from Him.

"?"

Emiya had no idea what Norton had come here for, so he naturally couldn't guess why Odin was angry, but he at least understood that -

We can’t let Odin throw the legendary spear of destiny, Kungunir!
This is the same reason why Gilgamesh cannot be allowed to activate the EA Sword. Odin's Noble Phantasm has such a great reputation that Emiya cannot give him a chance to activate it!
"You leave first!"

Magic circuits like circuit board patterns lit up on Emiya's legs and arms, indicating that he had almost pushed his enhanced magic to its limit. He kicked his legs and swung his arms, throwing Shude Mai and Zero at his side with great force.

Then, holding two swords, the Seven-Star Dragon Abyss and the Tai'a Sword, he turned around and fought back. As Odin's horse was extremely fast, the edges of the two famous swords almost instantly reached the chest, neck and other vital parts.

Odin immediately changed his tactics with his gun, and with two clangs, he easily blocked the stabbing sword. The gun in his hand looked like a bent branch, but when it collided with Emiya's two swords, it actually made a sound of metal clashing.

Moreover, Odin displayed outstanding martial arts and strength. The next moment after blocking, he immediately deflected the gun body, carrying the gun tip, spinning at an incredibly fast angle, and stabbed Emiya in the face!
Whoosh! The air was pierced by this blow, creating a sharp explosion that shook the eardrums.

Emiya barely managed to dodge Odin's lightning-fast change of moves with his mind's eye. At the same time, he poured all the magic power used to strengthen magic into his two swords without reservation. Buzz——!
The Seven-Star Dragon Abyss and the Taia Sword hummed with joy and excitement. The entire sword body glowed instantly, and then quickly deformed to reveal its true form. Countless sharp claws, fangs, and feather-like barbs grew on the sides, and the sword body expanded to two meters, three meters... four meters in length!

After being strengthened, the legendary sword revealed a completely different, terrifying and ferocious posture. The four-meter-high sword body almost touched the ceiling. At the same time, the surging elements of the sword body made it faintly emit the sound of wind and thunder.

At this time, Odin also raised his magic spear high, and the violent wind whistled and gathered around him, gathering from the entire long corridor.

The next second, he thrust his spear forward, and the wind pressure swirled around the spear, making a crazy crackling sound. Shirou also swung his sword and chopped at him. The huge sword moved the atmosphere and made a thunderous sound!
Boom——!
The light in the space dimmed in an instant, and the powerful collision between the two caused a chaotic explosion of elements, which turned into a surging impact and a shrill storm like the howling of ghosts at the moment of the spear and sword confrontation.

The aftermath shook the metal walls of the corridor. The walls were cut into smooth scars by the violent wind elements, and huge spider-web-like cracks formed on the smooth road surface, which were disordered and crisscrossed.

After this attack, Emiya, holding the two swords that had returned to their original state, was almost sent flying backwards by the aftereffect. However, his body was lighter than Odin's. After slightly adjusting his posture, he quickly strengthened his leg strength and regained his balance.

On the other hand, Odin and the eight-legged Pegasus under him only took a few steps back because of the impact.

But seeing this, Emiya was filled with doubts...

Odin, that's it?
How could a deity of the supreme god level be beaten back by him?

After several rounds of fighting, the hand-to-hand combat ability displayed by this "Odin" is not even as good as that of a first-rate servant.

Because Emiya knew that even if he used full body strengthening, he would still be far from first-class martial arts.

Looking more closely, Odin didn't say a word the whole time. He was like a dull dead man who only knew how to attack. He also wore a suspicious mask covering his face... Is this a fake Odin?
Emiya frowned and looked at the gun in Odin's hand. Regardless of whether it was fake or not, with Emiya's keen perception of weapons, the gun of destiny in his hand did indeed carry the terrifying concept of certainty of hitting the target.

At least this part of Odin's power is real.

In other words, this is just an empty shell that has borrowed a very small part of Odin's power but does not have Odin's true consciousness?
So that's how it is? Emiya realized that his initial guess was wrong. This situation was not like the Heroic Spirit Summoning, where the spirit was summoned to descend in a complete form.

It is a technique similar to that taught by the Spiritual Summoning Department of the Clock Tower - a technique that uses a tiny amount of power from gods or heroic spirits in the form of summoning spirits.

Even though the Clock Tower is often criticized for being extremely poor, their teaching level is still good. If one is from a Northern European magic family, with the family background, it is not impossible to use necromancy to borrow a small part of Odin's power.

As it happens, Emiya also knows that there is indeed a person who comes from a Nordic family and is also a genius in the spirit summoning department...

Ophelia Famsolone!
Ophelia is known as the "modern Valkyrie". Like Odin, she covers one eye. In the FGO plot, she also becomes the hider responsible for the Nordic Lostbelt.

The other elements were basically in line, but the other party's personality was the only thing that didn't match. Although Ophelia came from a traditional magic family, she was essentially a kind person and would not be willing to manipulate these dark things...

Perhaps, we should expand the scope a little bit, and let Lord Wa use this clue to check all the Nordic families in the clock tower...
