Infinity, our Zhongzhou team has a bright future.

Chapter 178 Gao Hongliang: It's finally my turn!

Tsk. Still not giving up, clinging to the fantasy of obtaining the Holy Grail? In that case, you might as well continue being a stone statue.
Under Luo Li's control, several familiars knocked out Matou Shinji and brought him to her.

Then, to prevent this guy from doing anything funny, Luo Li used the Divine Era Magic to petrify him again.

If it weren't for the reward points and side quests, Luo Li wouldn't bother with this guy at all. She would even be happy to see the satisfying scene from the original story where Lancer Medusa breaks off his head.

But now, whether or not to keep him petrified indefinitely is a decision for the people of Chaldea to make.

However, Matou Shinji's escape also served as a reminder to Luo Li, warning those walking reward points and side quests not to think about running away and courting death.

Luo Li placed the petrified Matou Shinji at the school gate and put up a sign next to him.

The sign describes Matou Shinji's second petrification as a result of encountering danger while going out on his own, which led to his petrification again. In order to teach him a lesson and to warn others, his name is placed here to remind everyone that it is dangerous outside and that they should not go out on their own.

If they're lucky, they'll turn into stone statues and be retrieved; if they're unlucky, they'll be sent to the Sanzu River. This successfully frightened the survivors who were hoping to go out and find their relatives, allowing them to stay obediently in the school and receive protection from the Central Continent Team.

As for their request for the Central Continent Team to help find their relatives, Luo Li brushed them off with excuses such as insufficient manpower, that we are working hard to search, and that we are actively contacting the outside world.

For now, just keep these survivors calm. Once we hand them over to Chaldea, get the reward points and side quests, let the Chaldea people have their own headaches.

Just as Luo Li was wondering when Chaldea would arrive, a team of five, consisting of Zhao Yingkong, Ming Yanwei, Zhang Heng, Gao Hongliang, and Zhang Jie, found Archer.

Upon meeting, Archer did not launch an attack. Seeing that there was a possibility of communication, Zhang Jie immediately used his mental link to tell the others not to act rashly, while he planned to try to communicate with them according to the second plan.

"Archer, Shirou Emiya, do you know what you're doing?"

"Of course I know what I'm doing, and I know what you're going to say next, outsiders. But I'm sorry, right now I can only be killed."

Magic gathered in Archer Shirou Emiya's hands, and two short swords, one red and one black, materialized in his grasp.

Seeing this, Zhang Jie wanted to say something more and tried to pull Archer Shirou Emiya into his own lineup.

But his opponent didn't give him a chance. Shirou Emiya, an Archer, took the initiative to attack Zhang Jie with two short swords.

"Damn it, why do they always come to me first!" Zhang Jie activated his telekinesis, swirling up the surrounding ruins and smashing them towards Archer Shirou Emiya, while his own body kept shrinking back.

As Zhang Jie stepped back, Gao Hongliang, who was in his transformed state, immediately followed Zhao Yingkong to the left and right to meet the enemy, jokingly saying, "Kill the support first in a team fight, that's common sense, Brother Jie."

Gao Hongliang and Zhao Yingkong, transformed into Kamen Rider 01, successfully blocked Archer Shirou Emiya, who was not skilled in strength. Ming Yanwei and Zhang Jie, on the other hand, kept their distance and were ready to launch a sneak attack at any time.

Although two men were watching him intently from the sidelines, the battle-hardened Archer Shirou Emiya showed no sign of panic. He wielded his two short swords with great skill, blocking Gao Hongliang and Zhao Yingkong while leaving no opening for the other two.

Seeing this, Zhang Jie exclaimed in the mental link, "As expected of the guardian chosen by the Alaya Consciousness, those dual swords are really cool." The next instant after Zhang Jie finished his exclamation, Zhao Yingkong and Gao Hongliang, who were very dissatisfied with his slacking off, simultaneously vented to him through the mental link, "Stop talking nonsense! Help!"

Ming Yanwei and Zhang Heng stood by, waiting for an opportunity. Gao Hongliang and Zhao Yingkong could understand that she was worried about hurting her teammates if she acted rashly.

Zhang Jie was clearly slacking off. With the intensity of their current battle, there was no need to worry about his agile telekinesis accidentally injuring his teammates. If he did accidentally injure them, it would definitely be because Zhang Jie did it on purpose!

Hearing Gao Hongliang and Zhao Yingkong urging him through their mental link, Zhang Jie knew he couldn't catch the fish by himself, so he started to exert his strength.

With B-rank telekinesis controlled at a double A-rank level, the B-rank telekinetic power was wrapped around a flying needle and suddenly shot out from an unexpected and tricky angle from Archer Shirou Emiya, making Archer Shirou feel extremely uneasy.

In the blink of an eye, Archer Shirou Emiya chose to take a direct hit from Zhao Yingkong's sword and Gao Hongliang's kick, crossing his twin swords in front of his chest to block Zhang Jie's telekinetic needles.

"Opportunity!" The moment Gao Hongliang kicked Archer Shirou Emiya, Ming Yanwei knew her chance had come.

The instant Archer Shirou Emiya was kicked away, several arrows of wind shot out from the bowstring, accurately hitting Archer Shirou Emiya in mid-air, knocking him down from the sky and causing him to fall to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

This combination of punches, while failing to kill Archer Shirou Emiya outright, was enough to severely injure him.

This also made Archer Shirou Emiya realize that in close combat, he was no match for these four outsiders. Now, severely injured, he either had to retreat in spirit form or activate his Noble Phantasm to fight them head-on.

But after only a moment's thought, Archer Shirou Emiya abandoned the option of retreat. As he made his decision, a twisted, broken, chaotic, desperate, painful, and resentful chant rose from the smoke and dust, reaching the ears of Zhao Yingkong and the other three.

Although the chanting had been distorted beyond recognition, Zhao Yingkong and the other three instantly realized that the other party was about to unleash their Noble Phantasm, Unlimited Blade Works.

Zhang Jie immediately roared in the mental link, "Stop him!" At the same time, he manipulated his telekinesis to create a gust of wind that dispersed the smoke and dust.

Following the whirlwind was Ming Yanwei's wind arrow, but this time the wind arrow was blocked by a black and red shield shaped like a chrysanthemum.

The blazing sky covers seven rings!
The instant the Seven Rings of Blazing Sky appeared, Gao Hongliang patted his knight's belt at his waist, and a powerful sound effect suddenly came from the belt.

Accompanied by this sound effect, Gao Hongliang leaped high into the air, his body surrounded by yellow electric light effects, and delivered a flying kick to the Sevenfold Ring of Blazing Sky.

Rising Impact

This flying kick instantly shattered two layers of petals, but was blocked by the third layer. Although Gao Hongliang was still exerting his strength, he knew that he could not completely destroy the Seven-Layered Ring of Blazing Sky with his remaining strength.

But that's enough, because his goal from the beginning was to attract Archer Shirou Emiya's attention; his real killer move was Zhao Yingkong~.
