Chapter 574: Tyrannical Magical Energy
Whoosh~
The violent wind continuously cut like blades. The pale hair danced in this strong wind as if it were about to break.
Artoria, whose whole body was covered in black armor, naturally couldn't be injured by this level of airflow.
But she was quite unaccustomed to being carried by the armor at the back of her neck; this was not the posture of a King.
"I am skilled at Riding."
Her voice pierced through the violent wind and reached Kaito Shirogane's ears, but Kaito Shirogane only smiled more wildly.
He was currently flying high in the sky, carrying Artoria with one hand, urging his violent [Qi] to perform ultra-high-speed flight using [Bukujutsu].
The King of Knights indeed possessed a specialty in Riding, but right now, Kaito Shirogane didn't have a fighter jet for the other party to ride freely. Even if he did, that kind of thing was far less convenient than his Bukujutsu and the [Ace's Solo Skiff · Modified].
The coordinates given by A Sword of Floating Red were quite specific, actually an exact latitude and longitude. Obviously, he had a deep connection with that [Mottled Light Color] team.
After confirming the coordinate location, it was roughly an island about five or six hundred kilometers away from the Myanmar border, an extremely rare primitive island in the world today without modern civilization.
Primitive tribes lived on it, so the White Elephant Country strictly forbade any modern ships from approaching. If they occasionally approached, sharp arrows or throwing spears would be shot from the island.
This kind of place was probably indeed a very suitable place for Reincarnators to survive in the early days when they started appearing.
It couldn't possibly have any modern imaging equipment, and with the martial force and weapons and items obtained by Reincarnators, they possessed the possibility of quickly conquering this kind of tribe.
The [Mottled Light Color] team probably experienced a split, shrinking from a team of over a dozen people previously to the point where only three Title-level higher-ups remained today.
Of course, this information was sent by Jin Yue'an. Kaito Shirogane actually didn't have much interest in these things anymore.
Having seen too many grudges and entanglements between Reincarnators, they lost their flavor.
A blazing white vapor trail crossed the sky. Kaito Shirogane had already arrived above the coordinate point.
Just having arrived at this high altitude, he felt he had pierced through a layer of perception bounded field.
Sizzle~
Electric currents flowed in the air, and the invisible magnetic field was instantly controlled. [Mantra Lv9] had been deployed, and everything on the island fell into Kaito Shirogane's perception.
...
Below, on North Forest Island, a woman suddenly stood up. Mental power spread out towards the surroundings of the island in an instant like an invisible shockwave.
"Be careful, something is coming!"
She warned loudly, simultaneously spreading her arms. An intense storm immediately generated from beneath her, and her whole person flew directly towards the sky.
The terrifying whistling airflow instantly terrified the primitive people on the island, who knelt down one after another and continuously kowtowed to the woman in the air.
Bang!
Bang!
Two other caves exploded instantly. Two men darted out from inside like dark shadows. One drew a tachi, while the other stood in place, immediately raising his head to scan the sky.
In the next moment, his pupils shrank as the whistling of some object tearing through the air at high speed struck.
Sizzle~ Boom!
Before the [Storm · Mu] who had just flown into the air could see clearly, she only felt an entity completely condensed from magical energy in her perception crash past her and smash into the ground.
Rumble!
Shockwaves scattered. Amidst the smoke and dust, terrifying magical energy erupted directly.
[Grey Knight · Fate] spread one hand, and invisible fluctuations immediately unfolded. The smoke and dust were pushed away directly, revealing the figure of the black-armored knight behind.
"You..."
The instant he saw the other party's face, the words he wanted to ask about the other party's purpose seemed to get stuck in his throat. Black battle armor, black longsword, scarlet light, and that iconic hair and face...
Hum!
The overly condensed magical energy produced a muffled sound in the air, as if some large object swept through the air.
In the next moment, black-red sword light erupted directly.
"Be careful, it's Black Saber!"
Boom!
A black-red sword light directly spanned thousands of meters, slashing from the center of the island directly into the reef jungle behind the tribe with one strike.
A huge explosion accompanied by flames appeared.
Fate felt palpitation in his heart. This iconic magical energy release, it was truly the original Black Saber, not a Reincarnator imitating...
In the sky, Mu also shouted angrily, bringing her hands together slowly towards below.
A huge storm hundreds of meters high, sweeping sand, stones, and tree debris, pressed directly towards Artoria.
But Artoria didn't react at all, slashing backhanded again.
Boom!
Identical magical energy output, black-red sword light blazing, without any restraint, carrying a terrifying killing intent seemingly wanting to destroy everything, crashing and shattering the storm.
Mu pushed back with both hands in the air, falling down like a butterfly in the fierce wind she herself controlled, only then dodging this sword strike.
But all her choices, all her abilities, made no difference in front of Artoria. She stepped forward again, gripped the sword with both hands, and slashed horizontally!
Sizzle!
Scarlet, pitch-black sword light instantly swept past. When Fate leaped high, he spread his left hand, and invisible Force erupted again.
Boom!
Fate flew high, the sword light still sweeping past. In an instant, corpses littered the field. Those kneeling primitive tribe residents turned into large patches of blood-red, the entire tribal gathering place seemingly slashed open by a huge cross-section.
Pfft!
Fate bled from his mouth and nose in the air. Using the Force to do this kind of thing was still too forced; the other party's magical energy eruption was simpler and cruder.
He spun several times in the air. A lightsaber hilt had already appeared in his hand. Gripping tightly, Force erupted, and blue-white sword light lit up.
"Stop her, A'Dao!"
Tap tap tap...
Hurried footsteps continuously appeared around. Artoria's gaze flashed continuously, faintly capturing that fast-moving swordsman.
In the next instant, the other party appeared in the air. The instant he drew his sword, dazzling light erupted from the blade, as if refracting sunlight, or as if the blade itself could emit light.
Artoria swung her hands, the sword light still slashing out following her intuition.
Boom!
A'Dao barely dodged this strike, but a large chunk of flesh and blood was still shaved off his left arm and shoulder by the violent magical energy. Without a sound, he raised the tachi in his right hand, internal energy flowing.
[Snow Floating in the Human World]!
Sword radiance explosively flashed, like falling snowflakes. Countless fine sword radiances completely enveloped all positions around Artoria.
Clang clang clang!
Although Artoria was accustomed to fighting with a sword, ultimately, she wasn't a swordsman; she was an armored knight!
She merely raised her sword, completely not dodging, fully utilizing the armor on her body to forcefully tank this strike.
At this time, Mu crashed to the ground. Her eyes focused, intense mental power directly impacting Artoria's main body. Fate also quickly followed up from behind, raising one hand while wielding the lightsaber.
Hum!
Artoria immediately felt her throat gripped by an invisible force.
Seeing this woman with unparalleled destructive power being controlled, the few felt slightly relieved in their hearts. But at this moment, that terrifying sound of piercing the air rang out in the sky again.
The three looked up, only to see a pink figure crash down violently from high in the air.
Rumble!
The rock wall formed by the huge reef behind the tribe violently shattered, terrifying shockwaves spreading out.
Crack, crack!
Amidst the sound of reefs continuously shattering, a figure appeared from the smoke and dust.
Kaito Shirogane gently patted the dust off his body that had never stuck to him. He slightly raised his head, sweeping his lower eyelids at the three, the corners of his mouth hooking up and parting, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.
"Ha~ All three are here. That's very good..."
His right hand suddenly made a flicking gesture. Mu, with outstanding perception, immediately spoke:
"Be careful, he is Mercenary..."
Pfft!
A pebble instantly pierced through the swordsman who had just executed [Snow Floating in the Human World] at a speed far exceeding a bullet. His throat was directly pierced, blood spraying.
[A'Dao] subconsciously clutched his throat, immediately taking rapid steps backward, rolling and leaping out of thin air to pull open the distance. The throat is a fatal wound for ordinary people, but for Reincarnators, it is far less important than the heart and head.
He wouldn't die yet...
Hum!
Kaito Shirogane was somewhat surprised. The strength of these few people wasn't as bad as he imagined. He pointed his right index finger at the few, golden Qi beginning to condense.
