Magic world

This is a strange space where boundaries cannot be distinguished and distance cannot be felt.

On one side, the sky was dark, and huge gears of various sizes, with teeth that meshed with each other, hung high in the sky. They seemed to be rusty, and they were spinning there in the distance with a strange squeaking sound.

Under the gears, there is a piece of yellow and red land that looks like a steelyard or the ruins of a battle. Long swords of different shapes and sizes are stuck on the ground, exuding a faint light among the sparks flying in the sky. The aura of ruin.

Archer, dressed in strange red and black clothes, stood in the middle of the group of swords like the owner of this land.

The other side is different from this side. The world there has no actual concept of heaven or earth. The whole space is filled with strange energy. Sometimes it gathers and disperses into light white clouds, sometimes it disperses into fires flying all over the sky. Sometimes it is fixed into the thick earth and mountains, and sometimes it changes into rough waves and waves. Natural phenomena such as wind, thunder, rain, electricity, etc. are constantly changing in the space there.

Ito Cheng, who had put on a complete set of clothes at some point, stood quietly in the center of this changing world, looking coldly at Archer standing in the opposite world.

This is the strange 'world' that was born after the two inherent barriers collided and eroded each other.

"Emiya Shirou, let us end this battle." Ito Cheng thought slightly, and the whole world gathered thunder in the sky, jumping through the gray mist-like clouds.

"Who are you?" A big bow appeared in Archer's hand, using the sword of the Noble Phantasm as an arrow, he pointed at Ito and asked coldly.

"You don't need to know this." Ito Cheng said quietly.

After that, I didn't see him making any moves. The thunder in the sky immediately shot towards the archer in the infinite sword world like rain.

In an instant, the thunderstorm passed through the edge of the two consolidation boundaries. He flew into the world of infinite swords and blasted towards Archer. The latter loosened his fingers. He instantly shot out the Noble Phantasm in his hand, and then regardless of the result, he immediately raised his hand and stretched forward. A transparent ring-shaped shield with seven huge pink energy petals on the outside appeared in front of him and greeted him. There was a thunderstorm.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

Continuous roars immediately echoed in the two worlds.

"The seven-layered circle covered by the blazing sky..." Looking at Archer's strange treasure used to resist thunderstorm attacks, Ito Cheng squinted his eyes and secretly thought.

The seven-layered circle of the blazing sky - law aias, comes from the bronze shield covered with seven layers of cowhide that the hero Ajax used to block Hector's spear in the Trojan War in Greek mythology (the legendary Hector's attack Penetrated six layers. There is still one layer left that cannot be penetrated). Later, its scope was expanded to a "conceptual weapon" that boasted absolute defense against thrown weapons, and its existence was upgraded. It is said that the defensive power of each petal is comparable to a thick ancient city wall!

Thinking of this, Ito Cheng waved one hand, and the thunderstorm that filled the sky stopped for an instant, and then quickly gathered into one. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a diameter as thick as an adult. The surface of the lightning was as crystal clear as water, and the front end was sharp. The huge thunder gun, like a sky-opening spear, fired towards Archer again with a "whoosh".

"boom!"

The thunder roared and the white light was like daylight, illuminating the whole world brightly.

Then about five or six seconds passed. The dazzling white light gradually dispersed, revealing Archer shrouded in fine lightning. But at this time, the blazing sky, which originally had seven pink energy flower panels, covered the outside of the seven-fold ring. Two petals have indeed disappeared.

Obviously, the thunder blow just now directly penetrated two 'city walls'!

See this. Ito Cheng smiled softly, waved his hand again and used the thunder to create three exaggerated spears that were exactly the same as the previous giant thunder spears. They fired at Archer one after another within a few seconds of each other.

Archer's expression changed slightly when he saw this, and his face became serious.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Then the next moment, three violent thunderous roars once again echoed in the world formed by the fusion of the two inherent barriers. At the same time, once again, the entire world was filled with the blazing white light that bloomed when the thunder gun exploded, making people's eyes so bright that they could not see anything.

However, at this moment, with a slight "whoosh" sound breaking through the sky, a golden light cut through the sky and shot towards Ito Cheng.

Ito Cheng's expression moved, and he raised his hand to create a magic barrier in front of him.

"boom."

Huge magic power exploded instantly.

But then, a golden light flashed slightly in the magic flame, quickly bypassing the magic barrier as if controlled by someone, and rushed towards Ito Cheng's body again.

Ito Cheng's expression changed slightly, and he ducked back.

But the result remained the same. After a slight pause, the golden light once again drew an exaggerated arc and returned to Ito Cheng's side.

Seeing the strange characteristic of this attack not disappearing even if it misses the target, the name of the source of this attack - "Akahara Hound" - appeared in Ito Cheng's mind almost instantly! From the poem "h lent Beowulf the sword to kill the water demon." Its characteristic is that as long as the shooter survives, he will continue to pursue the target no matter how many times he is shot down until the target is killed.

After understanding the situation of this attack, Ito Cheng did not hesitate, immediately stepped into the void, and quickly rushed towards Archer who was in the world of infinite swords. It was only at this time that Ito Cheng noticed Archer's situation.

The entire right arm disappeared, half of the body and part of the face were scorched black, the breath was weak, and he stood there in embarrassment, panting violently, looking like he was about to run out of gas.

But even so, after seeing Ito Cheng rushing towards him, Archer still resolutely projected a white single sword in his remaining left hand, ready to fight Ito Cheng. But before he could make a move, six flat yellow rays of light suddenly appeared around his body, instantly piercing Archer's waist and abdomen, leaving him frozen in place.

"Sixty-three of the Binding Dao, Six Battles of Light Prison!"

It wasn't until Archer was stabbed by the light that Ito Cheng's low shout could be heard faintly.

Then, Ito Cheng's figure appeared next to Archer, waving his arm, and the white wind blade instantly cut through Archer's neck.

"puff!"

Then, without stopping, he took another step forward and rushed out.

…

"Archer." In the real world outside the inherent barrier, Tohsaka Rin's expression suddenly paused. He raised his hand to cover his arm, lowered his head, and whispered softly with a downcast expression.

"Sister?" Tohsaka Sakura called softly with concern.

The next moment, the void shook, and Ito Cheng's figure reappeared in the ripples on the river channel of the Miyon River in the real world.

"Brother Nari." Seeing Ito Cheng, despite her psychological confidence in him, Tohsaka Sakura couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and shouted softly with a happy face.

Ito Cheng nodded at Tosaka Sakura with a smile on his face, and walked slowly to Tosaka Rin.

"Archer lost. Please stay at home honestly during this period, and I will end this Holy Grail War as soon as possible." Ito Cheng lowered his head and looked at Tohsaka Rin, who also bowed his head and remained silent.

"I understand." Tohsaka Rin replied without raising his head.

"Sakura, you..." Ito Cheng turned around and said to Sakura Tohsaka next to him, but before he finished speaking, a look of anger suddenly appeared on Ito Cheng's face.

"Rider, take Sakura, let's go!" Then he immediately reached out and grabbed Tohsaka Rin's arm, jumped out, and said to the spirit-turned Rider.

Then the void trembled, and the rider's figure appeared. He stretched out his arms to hug Tohsaka Sakura's body, and ran forward quickly behind Ito Cheng.

However, before the two of them had run far, a sharp cold wind suddenly shot out from the thorn, blocking Ito Cheng and Rider.

"This road is blocked!" A faint voice said.

"Lancer... Kotomine Kirei finally couldn't bear it anymore?" Ito Cheng said coldly as he looked at Lancer walking out of the woods.

"What!?" Tohsaka Rin exclaimed, who was extremely surprised by the changes.

"It seems that his concealment, which he thought he was good at, was not that good. You guessed it." Lancer smiled, holding the red spear on his shoulder.

"Rider, protect Sakura and Rin." Ito Cheng put Tohsaka Rin back on the ground, walked towards the Lancer and said softly.

"I originally wanted to wait until tomorrow to launch an attack and end this Holy Grail War, but it seems that the plan will not work."

"Aren't you going to besiege me with Rider? I've been underestimated. I'm not a loser like Archer. Don't regret it if you die when the time comes." Lancer was holding the spear, lowering his body in a posture ready to attack, and said with a grin.

"Are you looking down on me? After all, you are really not worthy of letting Rider and I join forces." Ito Cheng walked to the opposite side of Lancer and said softly, "And now I am very angry, so I plan to finish you off with one blow!"

Having said that, without giving Lancer a chance to speak, he immediately unleashed his own majestic magic power that was unlike any human being could possess, eroding the world and forming an inherent barrier that enveloped Lancer and himself.

In an instant, Ito Cheng and Lancer disappeared from the eyes of Tohsaka Rin, Tohsaka Sakura and Rider.

"Now, die! lancer!"

Within the inherent barrier, Ito Cheng, who used his thoughts to create a blazing white fireball like the sun above his head, said coldly. (To be continued...)
