Chapter 499: Legion vs. Legion

The heroic army finally overcame the heavy fire blockade that caused them heavy losses, and came into close contact with us. These soldiers who looked like they came from the ancient Roman legions shouted bravely, and the sharp broad-bladed swords in their hands roared and slashed in the air.

Slash, using simple but equally deadly soldier fighting skills to launch a fearless attack on the powerful genuine heroic spirits who are far superior to them. Every second, stumps and severed arms will fly up. Every second

, countless heroic soldiers will be wiped out, but in the face of the endless surging enemy tide, this battle loss is nothing at all.

Even Tohsaka and Emiya participated in the battle. Although as humans, their lives are far more fragile than heroic spirits, and a casual sword strike from those Roman soldiers could kill them, but the two of them were not willing to hide among their friends.

With a character who accepts protection from behind, when Saber and others acted as a frontal blocker, Tohsaka used his magic bullets, and Emiya used my guidance but was not very proficient in projection magic to create a bow and arrow.

, blocking the enemies in the distance. Of course, even Tohsaka's magic bullets are not a big threat to the real heroic spirits. However, those ancient Roman soldiers are not genuine heroic spirits either, so the two of them fell.

It can also deal with some enemies.

As for Kuzuki Soichiro, who is also a human being and was brought by Medea, he has no long-range attack skills and the risk of close combat is too great. It is a risk that Medea is absolutely unwilling to take, so he had to stay among the people to protect him.

With Ilya.

"Yan Hui!!"

Sasaki's voice sounded not far away, and as his words fell, more than a dozen Roman infantrymen who had been cut in half fell to the ground. This was originally an impossible result for Sasaki, who was good at one-on-one duels.

But the strange thing is that his power is increasing. The psionic energy on the bamboo pole is now powerful enough to glow with a faint blue light. The attack range of the secret sword "Yan Hui" has doubled with the addition of this energy, almost

It can already be used as a medium-range weapon.

Where does his power come from?

It can be said that the only one among all the heroic spirits that makes me feel strange now is Sasaki, who is still full of mystery even though he has become his employee. Apart from other things, I can't even find his sword now.

to its source of psionic energy.

"Spirit Burning Strike - Rotten Soul Infection!"

Sandora's power permeates the battlefield. Even those with strong spiritual power such as heroic spirits cannot resist the powerful soul attack. Every time she waves her hand, scores of enemies will fall down due to their souls being burned out, and even more so around us.

A soul-stealing halo with a radius of half a kilometer is formed. Enemies who enter the range of this halo will gradually lose their minds in constant battles. Their minds are gradually absorbed by Sandora as energy, and fear, greed, cruelty, betrayal,

As long as there are a few seeds of these negative emotions, they will expand to an unparalleled degree in their hearts. Therefore, in battle, we can always see those Roman soldiers who were brazenly attacking us one second and holding up their hands the next second.

He slashed his comrades with swords, and even committed suicide with swords. Such strange phenomena shook the enemy's military morale, and its significance was even greater than the Amaterasu and Void explosions I scattered all over the sky.

But no matter who is attacking, when it comes to visual shock, the Pandora sisters should be the first ones...

The two little guys each carried two triple six-tube photon cannons. When activated, these giant weapons, which were much taller than their heights, almost made people think that they were four artillery pieces floating in the air and firing. The sky behind them

There are dozens of metal traps floating in it, and missiles are dripping like dumplings...

Just from the deafening noise, Tohsaka and the others decisively chose to stay a hundred meters away from the two little lunatics.

They have never seen Pandora and Viska truly crazy. It would be spectacular to have a thousand floating cannons sweeping the battlefield!

There was a sound of sonic boom in his ears, and Vega, covered in blood mist, charged over like lightning, turning a large number of enemies into ashes along the way. Then he inserted his two swords into the ground to fix his body, and the alloy carapace at the tip of his tail suddenly opened.

Open, the photon cannon that has been charged to the point of exploding radiates a large amount of psionic energy rays outwards. Using this short-range clearing shot, she cleared a large area of ​​enemies around us, and then came to me.

"Sir!" Vega had a strong smell of blood on his body, and his exposed skin and beautiful face due to his slightly exposed armor were stained with bright red blood, making this tall armored scorpion look like hell.

The female demon is as fierce as the female demon goddess, "I have counted our kill data, and the number of infantry heroes who died just from your space artillery and Chief Sandora's psychic attack has reached more than 4,000!"

Four thousand heroic spirits were killed by two people head-on in just half an hour. Such a result can almost be described as appalling, but if it were two leader-level Xiling apostles who did it, this would only be considered ordinary.

That's okay. This is considered the "regular firepower" range of Sandora and I. We won't use those one-hit star-killing things here.

Of course, the point is not here, the point is...

"Four thousand casualties, but..." I looked into the distance, where there was still an orderly Roman infantry phalanx, with a row of infantry breaking away from it and raising their javelins towards us.

"But they don't seem to be decreasing at all."

Yes, by now, the opponent has lost more than half of the battle. In any case, their number should have dropped significantly. But whether it is the infantry phalanx that is in contact with us at the front or the reserve troops that are constantly being added behind, this

None of the Roman legions showed signs of significant attrition, and even their reserve phalanx had not been used.

Of course, this does not mean that the opponent had no casualties at all, but the number of casualties was too small compared with the results we should have achieved.

The enemy is still using tactics such as throwing javelins and melee combat at the same time to launch continuous drag-and-drop attacks against us. Due to the special skills of heroic transformation, this unreasonable tactic has been used by them, which has really caused discomfort to us.

A small trouble. Although my void detonation interception and the high-efficiency fighting of others have not caused any substantial damage to us, Saber and the others have clearly shown their fatigue.

"Sakura, switch to the Crystal Madonna!"

I thought about it, turned to the other side and said to the purple-haired girl who was using her deformable hair to launch a tentacle battle. Although the latter joined the battle from the beginning, until now, because I did not give the order, she has not

Use that fighting stance that's a bit out of the norm in terms of power and appearance.

"Hi! Boss!"

Sakura happily agreed and called out to her followers: "Rider, protect me and give me ten seconds!"

The white horse with two wings descended from the sky. Medusa, who had been sniping at the enemy commander from the outside, dismounted and stood guard next to Sakura, who had closed her eyes and stood quietly.

A blue-white energy halo appeared on the ground, and the purple-haired girl slowly sank into the halo. Even during the battle, Tohsaka and Emiya noticed the scene here, and Emiya had vaguely guessed what was going to happen.

What? Tohsaka gave a reassuring look to the worried Tohsaka.

"Kerala..."

Accompanied by such a series of sounds of crystals shattering, the blue-white halo that had just swallowed Sakura suddenly expanded more than ten times, turning into a large energy well before the arrival of the Crystal Virgin that day. Then, amid several exclamations, it floated

The crystal colossus slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

"Looking at it from this angle, it feels much more comfortable..."

Sakura lazily supported her body with her arms, leaning diagonally on the crystal platform of her lower body. She looked up to the sky and yawned. Although the energy consumed by summoning the Crystal Virgin can be replenished by the psionic crystal clusters under the suspended platform, it is

The moment the summons was completed, I still felt tired.

"Ah, sister, how are you? As I said, that stingy alien boss gave me a nice gift, right?"

Hey! Now that you admit it’s a good gift, why don’t you mention the word stingy? You and Rider both signed the contract at the beginning! Although the latter’s idiot had to write his name five times in a row before he spelled his name correctly...

…

"Wow... If I hadn't known in advance, I would have suspected that you had performed some inhumane body modification on my sister," Tohsaka muttered subconsciously, "What is this!"

Could you please first explain what "inhumane human body modification" is?

"Sakura, don't hold back, release the nether energy wave in a large area!"

I shouted loudly to Sakura, who had turned into a giant, and summoned a hyperspace satellite cannon. Immediately, more than a dozen Roman soldiers turned into smoke.

This time, I kept my thoughts in mind. After destroying these dozen Roman infantrymen, I immediately spread my mental power and carefully felt the chaotic energy on the battlefield.

Instead of disappearing, those killed Roman soldiers did not disappear immediately, but turned into another kind of free energy, and then gradually merged with some kind of energy that permeated the entire battlefield.

The new energy after this fusion seems to have a certain degree of autonomy. They are all gathering in one direction, where the Roman legions' reserves are located.

New infantry heroes are constantly reborn there!

No wonder the number of enemies has never dropped after fighting for so long. Ya Quan is a figure like a red archbishop from Brother Chun's teaching!

But why were the two hundred Roman soldiers killed by us at the Emiya Residence unable to be reborn? Is it because of the special energy permeating the battlefield now?

I became interested in this energy that seemed to be everywhere. There seemed to be many things in the other world that were not found in the outer world. Even the Garden of Death could not analyze it 100%. What was going on here?

Feeling the ubiquitous free energy, I found that I could not find its source at all. It was too uniform. The distribution of these energies was extremely uniform. Within the battlefield, it was almost impossible to distinguish their flow trend, and those who died were

The Roman soldiers were constantly resurrected and strengthened under the influence of this energy. This power was undoubtedly the source of their strength, and...

Is this also the source of Sasaki’s power?

I clearly "saw" that around Sasaki, this energy showed a high degree of activity. They converged on Sasaki with a far more positive attitude than treating Roman soldiers, allowing the latter to fight until now without a trace of fatigue.

Instead, the more you fight, the more courage you get.

In other words, this energy has no will, so its source is likely to be——

I raised my head and stared at the red moon in the sky.

It can provide energy for the entire battlefield, the energy is distributed extremely evenly, and it does not distinguish between friend and foe. The only possibility is that weird moon.

Perhaps the red moonlight shining on the other world is charging the Roman infantry on the battlefield. In other words, the moon gives them strength - think of more than 10,000 fat and strong Roman infantry uncles who are destroying us in the name of the moon.

, I suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

"Crystal radiation!"

The huge Crystal Madonna slowly rose into the air about ten meters, splashing large blue light curtains on the battlefield. In the light of the red moon, these blue light curtains seemed so weak, but their effect was

It was astonishing. An area with a radius of half a kilometer was swept by blue light. The psionic radiation, which was extremely lethal to energy creatures, dealt a heavy blow to all the Roman infantry within the range. A large number of the nearest infantrymen were transformed in platoon units.

It turned into a crystal statue, and then fell to the ground and turned into powder. At the rear of the battle formation, the infantry far away from the radiation center also slowed down significantly, so much so that Medea could leisurely use magic bullets to kill them one by one.

clean.

This time, the enemy finally experienced a real reduction in strength: the Roman infantry who had been contaminated by psionic energy could no longer accept the power of the red moon. What was originally just a flash of inspiration actually achieved such good results, which made me overjoyed.

"Sandora!"

I greeted loudly, and the blond girl floating in the air immediately landed and said angrily: "Ajun, why can't you kill all these guys? Do you want to use more powerful moves?"

"The Red Moon is constantly resurrecting them. Are you planning to knock that moon down?" I glanced at Shandora, who was already a little angry. Although we are not without the power to deal with these enemies, it is impossible to destroy the Red Moon.
To be continued...
