Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

With their extremely keen eyesight, the Emiya androids quickly sensed the commotion coming from the forest. Without any hesitation, the noble chariots instantly wrapped around their bodies.

The guards who had been dozing beside them also heard the shouts, quickly woke up, gripped their weapons tightly, and looked around in a panic.

"call out----!"

At that instant, a golden ray of light shot out from the distant cliff towards the location of Emiya's android.

The android, already on high alert, quickly rolled away to dodge.

However, the guard behind him, who had just regained consciousness, did not have such good skills.

The golden light pierced through him without any deviation, leaving only a guard lying on the ground with a large hole in his chest, his face contorted in pain.

Despite the intense heat, not a single drop of blood flowed from his chest.

Meanwhile, the other Emiya androids quickly projected their [Romantic Turrets] and launched them at the cliff face.

Although they don't have Mine's talent for using firearms, thanks to their excellent eyesight and the synchronized training with hundreds of others, the Emiya androids are not much worse than Mine in terms of accuracy.

However, if it were a close-range battle using the [Romantic Turret], Mine, who is more skilled with firearms, would have the advantage, although the Emiya homunculus is inherently equipped with extremely strong melee capabilities.

"Tch! Missed!!"

After seeing her attack dodged by Emiya's android, Mine didn't hesitate and quickly ran backward.

Although the weapons projected by those androids are far less powerful than they can attack, if the two sides were to exchange bullets, Mine's mental bullets would surely destroy them.

But that was only in a one-on-one situation. Right now, it's not just one Emiya android shooting at Mine's position.

It's not that Mine can't launch a rapid attack from several directions in a short period of time, but it would consume a lot of her mental energy. However, doing so wouldn't cause them any damage, so such a huge consumption would be completely futile.

Mine wouldn't waste her mental energy on something like this just to prove herself; they had much more important things to do right now.

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

Several explosions came from the cliff, and several beams of light destroyed the entire cliff. Even though they were not as powerful as the Imperial Arms in Mine's hands, these projected weapons were not to be underestimated.

"Burial!"

A black and red phantom appeared in the moonlight, and in the blink of an eye, Akame, holding the Imperial Longsword, appeared behind one of the Emiya androids.

“Zheng…”

Under the moonlight, a cold, silver arc of light appeared before the Emiya android.

"laugh…"

A faint whooshing sound rang out, and the air was sliced ​​apart in an instant.

The cold blade sliced ​​across his neck.

"Pfft—crack!"

The sound of cracking came from his body.

"!"

Akame felt the sensation of her sword in her hand and was suddenly startled. She quickly turned around and raised the sword in her hand.

A figure, accompanied by a gust of wind, appeared behind Akame, who should have finished off the enemy, in the blink of an eye.

"Qiang!"

With a crisp clang, the Imperial longsword, imbued with the power of thunder, sliced ​​through the air like a flash of light, colliding heavily with Akame's weapon.

Amidst the bursting sparks, Akame took a small step back, but immediately regained her footing, tightened her grip on her feet, and lunged forward again.

At this moment, it is very clear that there is a very deep crack on the neck of the Emiya homunculus wearing the [Noble Chariot] outfit.

"It's become even stronger—!"

Akame was slightly surprised. If it were the previous projection of that inferior [Noble Chariot], her attack would have been enough to cut through the armor and slash across the neck of the Emiya android inside.

If she used the sharper Murasame sword, she might be able to kill it more easily.

In order to prevent them from projecting the Murasame, Akame had to temporarily abandon the weapon she had always used and pick up a normal sword to fight.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

With a whooshing sound, Susanoo's club stirred up a continuous whirlwind, transforming into a series of powerful meteors, forming a storm that lashed out at one of the Emiya androids.

"boom----!"

In just a brief moment, the immense force of the impact sent a homunculus Emiya who hadn't even had time to react flying.

Night raids are the specialty of assassin organizations; eliminating the enemy before they can react is what they excel at.

However, the Emiya android who was thrown into the air by the terrifying impact suddenly unfurled a pair of pure white wings, desperately trying to withstand the powerful impact.

The other androids also reacted quickly, adjusting their weapons and firing them at Susanoo.

"boom----!"

A violent explosion occurred at Susanoo's location.

A terrifying impact engulfed him completely in that instant, and thick smoke rose from his position.

"call out----!"

An orange-yellow figure burst out of the thick smoke, transforming into a streak of light at extreme speed as it dashed toward the prison gate.

The Emiya Homunculi's reaction speed was also impressive; they didn't underestimate these Imperial Arms users and always faced them with a wary attitude.

The Romantic Turret in his hand was immediately adjusted and aimed at Leone, who was moving rapidly.

Although her speed was indeed impressive, with their powerful dynamic vision, hitting her at such close range was an easy task.

The Emiya androids had previously clashed with Night Raid members individually, or rather, with the duos formed by Night Raid. This was the first time they had truly fought directly against the entire Night Raid team.

"You won't get away with this!!!"

Mine roared as she reappeared on the broken cliff edge, beams of light shooting out from the Romantic Turret in her hand.

Before the Emiya androids could fire, beams of light rained down on them.

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

"boom--!"

The continuous bombing roared at the prison gate, and Leone took the opportunity to slip directly into the prison.

Chapter 353 Rescue

"It's frozen solid, is that even possible?"

Emiya Shirou looked at Tatsumi, who had turned into an ice sculpture and was wearing the [Demon Possessed] outfit.

He had thoroughly analyzed the [Possessed by Evil Spirits] technique, so he naturally knew exactly what kind of creature resided in this weapon.

Those are creatures with incredibly abnormal evolutionary abilities, which remain alive even after being turned into weapons.

How could it be so easily frozen and unable to break free?

"Good ice!"

Emiya Shirou reached out and placed his hand on the ice sculpture, feeling a chilling cold emanating from it.

With just a slight touch, his fingers were covered in a layer of ice.

Furthermore, according to what Shirou Emiya learned from his artificial inhabitants, Tatsumi had been imprisoned for four days, yet there was no water stain next to the ice sculpture.

The ice that froze Tatsumi never melted.

"boom----!"

At that moment, Shirou Emiya felt a tremor coming from above his head, indicating that something must have happened outside the prison.

"Projection started (Trace on)"

A crimson knight's sword appeared in Shirou Emiya's hand.

"The Sinful Sword of the Fierce Dragon (Lae vateinn)"

This is the unique spirit armor of Stella Vermillion, the only A-rank knight in the Pokémon Academy.

Although her strength only reached the B-level, her special ability was to materialize the power of dragons, which are at the pinnacle of mythical creatures, into her own conceptual interference system.

However, when Shirou Emiya saw Ikki Kurogane as he was leaving, he casually projected the demon sword Balmonk.

Stella Vermillion trembled as if she had witnessed something utterly terrifying, barely able to move.

Although she possessed the power of a dragon, she was far too weak, and even the demonic sword Balmonk projected by Shirou Emiya could exert immense pressure on her.

In short, that incident caused Stella Vermillion a great deal of psychological trauma.

However, despite this, the power of dragons is something that many people desire but can hardly attain.

Flames erupted from the knight's sword in Shirou Emiya's hand, gradually entangling Tatsumi, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, with raging flames burning fiercely on the ice.

Emiya Shirou tried his best to control the intensity of the flames to prevent them from burning Tatsumi inside the ice sculpture.

In just a short while, the ice sculptures attached to Tatsumi gradually melted into liquid and were quickly evaporated by the flames.

That's a creature at the pinnacle of the fantasy species.

An ice block created by a dangerous species living in the far north is no match for the dragon's flames.

"Hoo, hah—!"

The moment the ice thawed, the armor that had transformed into a dragon head gasped for breath and collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted.

"Tatsumi, are you alright?!"

Emiya Shirou quickly stopped firing his flames and helped Tatsumi up.

"You, are you Emiya-senpai?"

Tatsumi looked somewhat dazed at the person in front of him who had helped him up; he was extremely weak.

Although four days without food is nothing to the people of this world, he was in a frozen state and had to constantly consume a lot of energy to maintain his body temperature and prevent the cold from invading his body.
