Chapter 122 Pain
Quick, quick, quick! Charge, charge! Four-wheel drive... cough... There are no four-wheel drive brothers, and now only Hui Jin is the one charging.
Holding against the magic missiles that hit him, Hui Jin felt that his body might be torn to pieces at any time. This was a feeling he had never experienced in previous battles...
After all, before I regained my feeling, it was more of psychological pressure and instinctive resistance. However, after a period of overcoming and getting used to it, I was able to let go of this burden.
But now... After regaining the feeling, it is the first time to experience such a high-intensity battle. Ashes is a little uncomfortable...
Of course, regaining the senses is a good thing for combat. At least you can use your senses to perceive threats that are not detected by vision and hearing.
But...it hurts!
No joke, although the injury was not serious, Hui Jin already felt that his whole body was very sore.
The long-term fight against pain made Ashes get used to being reckless! But now... the feeling of pain caused Ashes to slow down his steps again and again.
It's not that Hui Jin doesn't want to rush anymore, but that his body's instinct is dragging down Hui Jin's steps, which makes Hui Jin very unhappy.
It would be nice if I could block my own pain... But now is not the time like this!
Ashes gritted his teeth and used all his strength to fight against the flying magic missiles. The originally straight charging path also turned left and right. He had to avoid the damage that could be avoided as much as possible. He couldn't be reckless...
Not far away, Gwendelin seemed to have discovered this, slowing down his retreat and speeding up the number of missiles launched, intending to prevent Ashes from getting close to him.
But he obviously underestimated the willpower that Ashes had developed through countless deaths.
Even death can't make Ashes surrender, it's just pain, it's not impossible to overcome! Just grit your teeth and persevere, it'll be over! Not everyone will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages!
This is also the reason why Ashes can stand out among countless undead and become the last one standing in front of the bonfire.
Hui Jin could have stayed quietly at the sacrificial site, keeping company with Brother Ceng Xin, and no one had ever forced him to pass the fire. After all, Hui Jin himself is a contradictory person...
Seeing the ashes getting closer and closer, Gwendelin seemed a little panicked, and even the speed of launching magic missiles became a bit slower. But obviously, this was an instinctive reaction. After all, the existence in front of him was just a person wearing Gwendelin's skin.
Just a zombie monster.
Using his own body to withstand the last wave of missiles, Ashes rushed to Gwendelin's eyes with his lance raised.
Looking at Gwendelin who was panicking like a trapped beast, a smile flashed in Ashes' eyes.
Finally, I caught him! Without the infinite health recovery buff brought by the evil at this moment, Gwendelin is covered in scars. The snake legs below have not yet grown out, and there are scorched black marks all over his body.
Gwendelin's harmful instinct prevented him from fighting back and could only continue to retreat, but it was obvious that Ashes was faster!
Hui Jin looked at the distance between the two and felt that it was close. He jumped up with a lunge, aimed the lance in his hand at the chest of Gwendelin who was dodging backwards, and stabbed it out fiercely.
Unable to dodge, Gwendelin could only howl in despair, and then was directly pierced by the spear in Ashes' hand, and then plunged into the ground behind him.
He let go and let Gwendelin be nailed to the ground. Ashes relaxed slightly. This guy was really a headache. It took a lot of effort to get him...
Ashes, who was resting, suddenly turned around, gathered the sunlight gun in his hand again, and stabbed Gwendelin's body fiercely!
At the moment when the sun light gun shot by Ashes hit Gwendelin, Gwendelin, who had been unresponsive, once again let out a shrill scream.
The snake's legs that were originally reaching for the ashes were twisted together in pain and retracted. The power of the sun light gun that hit it so close was no joke.
"I knew you would do this! Do you think I am a fool who has never fought before? Bah!"
Ashes spat on Gwendelin, who had completely lost his movement. He collapsed on the ground, panting heavily and looking at the dim sky.
As his spirit relaxed, the pain in his body also followed. He turned his head and glanced at Gwendelin, who was still nailed to the ground. Ashes grinned and took a breath.
"Let me dry you out for a while before going out. Who knows if you will go out and be resurrected again. If you are really resurrected, you don't know how to end it. Besides... I also need to take a good rest..."
Sighing and relaxing his whole body, Ashes lay there under the dim sky, quietly watching the stars flying all over the sky.
It's really... I haven't had such a thrilling battle in a long time. The battles after leaving the Black Soul World seemed to be crushing. This is not a good thing.
Coupled with the fact that he was confident in fighting in the world of black souls and fought like a martyr, it seemed that... he still had to change.
Although the fighting skills have been honed and the willpower is firm, but... the method of fighting still needs to be discussed. If you continue to be so reckless, something will happen in the future...
I had a campfire to resurrect myself before, but what about now? Can I still be resurrected? Even if I can recover from my injuries in the campfire, my resurrection is not guaranteed, not to mention that the places where I fight now and in the future are in other worlds far away from the campfire...
What's wrong with this? These things are almost engraved in Hui Jin's head. It's hard to change them...
I can only take one step at a time and practice it slowly in relatively easy battles. For a battle of this level... it's better not to try it easily...
…
"This way! This way! There is another person, and a child! It's great to be alive, thank you! Thank you for being alive...that's great!"
Among the ruins, Kiritsugu struggled to move pieces of rubble away, looking for the lucky ones who might survive.
But time is getting faster and faster, not to mention Kiritsugu, Maiya and Lancelot, no one alive has been found. As for the fire prevention girl, for some reason, she has been frozen in place, as if feeling something...
Finally, after a while, the fireproof girl made some noise again. She patted Kiritsugu, who was looking for survivors in confusion, pointed to a corner, and then said to him, "Where, where is there a person who is still alive..."
Kiritsugu suddenly raised his head and quickly approached the direction pointed by the fire prevention girl. Like a madman, he used all his strength to dig at the rubble that buried his life with his own hands.
Finally, in a corner, Kiritsugu saw a red-haired boy who still showed signs of life...
Tears kept streaming down his face. He was obviously the one who saved people, but he kept thanking the people who were saved, as if the person being saved was himself...
In fact, at this moment, there were two people saved. The red-haired boy, his life was saved by Kiritsugu, and Emiya Kiritsugu, his soul was saved by this surviving boy...
Finally, he saved a person, saved a person with his own hands! Kiritsugu turned his head again to look at the fireproof girl who was still in a daze, and couldn't help but asked nervously, "Is there anyone else? Is there anyone alive?"
Hearing Kiritsugu's question, the fireproof girl shook her head gently and said, "It's really a pity that there is no living life around here anymore, but the good news is that Ashes-sama has finally won..."
Before the fire-proof girl could finish her words, the fire-proof girl's body turned into a burst of smoke and dissipated in the sea of fire, leaving Emiya Kiritsugu surprised...
"What...what's going on? Why did she disappear? She just said there is good news, which means which monster Ashes killed! Could it be that the Holy Grail was destroyed and the summoned heroic spirits also disappeared?
"Emiya Kiritsugu looked at the place where the fire prevention girl disappeared and fell into deep thought.
But when he turned his head, he saw Lancelot who was still searching for survivors not far away, and he couldn't help but frown deeply.
Lowering his head, he saw the red-haired boy he had saved. Emiya Kiritsugu carefully picked him up and limped toward the hospital in the distance...
