Hakuno Kishinami shook his head helplessly. For something like this that could not be found through any information in the academy, no matter how talented Hakuno Kishinami was in reasoning, he had no way to deal with it.
If her Servant didn't happen to be Archer, she would probably have difficulty formulating an attack plan targeting Emiya Shirou's weaknesses until the final battle.
"Then let's go. I'm afraid the other party will adopt the same strategy--!"
"!"
Kishinami Hakuno's eyes also narrowed slightly. Since he had guessed the relationship between Archer and Emiya Shirou, Toosaka Rin could also make a guess easily.
And Emiya Shirou, who was fighting against him, confirmed it directly.
In a difficult situation, taking the initiative in battle is a very important factor in determining victory or defeat.
“Go—!”
Without hesitation, Hakuno Kishinami left his room in a hurry without even washing up.
“Really, it’s non-stop.”
With these words, Arher disappeared under the cover of a blue mist that looked like spiritual energy, and entered a spiritual state.
Inside the arena.
Archer and Hakuno Kishinami were speeding inside, dealing with the hostile programs that appeared in the castle as quickly as possible.
He also analyzed and recorded the surrounding scenes as quickly as possible, building a map of the area in his mind.
Unfortunately, the next second, Kishinami Hakuno's idea was shattered.
"call out----!"
A sword arrow turned into a bullet and pierced through the air like a dark lightning.
The sharp sound of breaking wind was heard only after the sword arrow passed through.
Silver beams of light flashed on the sword and shot forward.
The target is Archer who is inside the castle.
It was a shot that went faster than the speed of sound.
Even sniper rifle bullets cannot match it.
The strong wind shattered the windows around Archer in just an instant.
Archer's eyes suddenly became serious, and a pair of blades, one black and one white, appeared in his hands, and a powerful aura suddenly surged.
"Qiang————!"
With a crisp sound, the sword arrow collided violently with the two blades in front of Archer, causing a ball of sparks to explode.
Then, the double blades collided violently with the sword and arrow and shattered into pieces.
"It seems that we are already one step behind, and they are the ones who have taken the lead."
Archer's brows twitched suddenly, and he looked out the window beside him.
And following Archer's line of sight.
Inside the castle in the distance, behind the broken windows, in a place that looked like a reception hall, Emiya Shirou was half-kneeling on the ground, tightly gripping the golden longbow in his hand and looking at him.
After all, by the time Kishinami Hakuno thought of this aspect of the matter, it was already the next day. As Toosaka Rin had more analytical skills and practical experience, the first thing she did after the battle between Emiya Shirou and Archer was to return to the arena and familiarize herself with the venue again.
After hearing Emiya Shirou's speculation, she was unexpectedly shocked but reasonable, and immediately returned to the arena, crushing Emiya Shirou who was about to rest.
It was just like Archer guessed that he would be at a disadvantage in the final battle.
Emiya Shirou and Toosaka Rin speculate that Emiya Shirou will be at a disadvantage in the final battle.
You have to know that Shirou Emiya's injuries from the battle with Gawain have not yet fully recovered, and his whole body is still in a weak state.
Both his physical strength and projection speed are far inferior to Archer.
What's more, Shirou Emiya's mental world had just been detonated and had not yet fully recovered.
Shirou Emiya felt extremely lucky that he did not suffer any major physical or mental problems after the explosion.
Even if Shirou Emiya was able to cast his own barrier now, all the swords in the Infinite Sword System were destroyed because of that battle.
He should now be re-projecting and forging the weapon from scratch within his own inherent barrier.
Also because of the terrible injuries on Shirou Emiya's soul, those cracks would occasionally devour the weapons forged and projected by Shirou Emiya.
At this stage, not only are there only a handful of swords in Shirou Emiya's inherent barrier, but it is also a big question whether the Infinite Sword System can be deployed again.
Chapter 650: Learning from Chiron
There is no open space outside the castle.
The entire castle seemed to be built in the air. Looking out of the window through the glass, one could see extremely soft clouds floating at a close distance.
Below was a deep abyss where the ground was completely invisible, and the sun seemed to be right beside me.
In a castle soaring into the clouds, even if one has the ability to fly, one will be greatly affected at such a high altitude, so there is almost no need to consider fighting outside the castle.
However, Archer had not expected that Shirou Emiya could find a way to attack from a distance in a maze that looked like an indoor battle.
It can only be said that the timing was different. If it was Archer who was familiar with the arena in advance, he would also be able to find a way to seize the initiative.
"Let me see how good your shooting skills are--!"
As he said this, a jet-black Japanese bow appeared in Archer's hand.
"Om-!"
This was a whirlwind-like magical current bursting out from Archer.
“Swish, swish, swish, swish——!”
At this moment, countless silver beams of light attacked Archer like a rain curtain.
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM——!”
With a burst of exciting explosions, the ground where Archer was standing was instantly shattered by the flying sword arrows, turning into countless pieces of debris flying in the air.
At this time, Archer, already wearing the evil spirit's armor, appeared dozens of meters away in an instant, pulled the bowstring in his hand, and aimed at Shirou Emiya's position hundreds of meters ahead.
“Shhhhhhhhh——!”
At this moment, countless scarlet sword arrows shot out from Archer's hands, drawing several sharp arcs in the air.
“Clang, clang, clang, clang——!”
Like a clash of swords, countless shots caused countless collisions, making the crisp sounds of collisions rang out.
In the empty space in the middle of the castle, sparks suddenly exploded, as if there were invisible flashes of swords and sabers, extremely dazzling.
Silver beams of light continued to sweep towards Archer, one blow after another.
The scarlet-red lightning was not to be outdone and became more and more dazzling. Like a flash of light, it came to meet the attack in an instant and blocked the flying sword arrows of Shirou Emiya.
This kind of confrontation made Kishinami Hakuno and Toosaka Rishin, who were standing behind them, couldn't help but get excited.
"How can it be--!"
At this moment, Archer, who was shooting, was filled with surprise.
Toosaka Rin and Kishinami Hakuno didn't feel it, but Archer, who was in the middle of the battle, could detect it very clearly.
In the shooting match with Emiya Shirou, he was at a disadvantage.
All of Emiya Shirou's sword arrows were aimed at himself.
However, only a few of the sword arrows he shot were aimed at Shirou Emiya, and most of the others were used for defense to block the flying sword arrows.
He didn't dare let these sword arrows hit his room.
Archer did not want to experience the feeling of fantasy collapse.
But this also shows one thing, that he was at a disadvantage in the shooting battle with Emiya Shirou.
His initial judgment was wrong, Emiya Shirou's shooting skills were superior to his own.
And Archer could feel that if he continued to shoot, the sword arrows would penetrate his defense and hit him directly.
"Qiang——!"
At the moment Archer felt this, the silver sword arrow collided with his evil spirit body, making an extremely crisp sound.
"!"
"boom--!"
All that could be heard was a roar, and a small bomb carrying flames suddenly exploded in front of Archer, creating a strong thrust that made Archer's figure explode backwards.
It is precisely because of this momentary flaw.
Sword arrows rained down like raindrops, madly flying towards Archer who was flying backwards.
All one could see were streams of torrential rain flashing in the sky, accurately hitting the thick smoke.
Then——
“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!!!!”
Explosions continued to sound in the castle.
Shirou Emiya learned archery from Chiron.
Although Chiron only taught Shirou Emiya for one afternoon, with the divine wisdom and Shirou Emiya's own talent, it is unknown how many years of growth and how many levels Emiya Shirou's archery skills have advanced.
Of course, the master only leads you to the door, but the practice depends on yourself. After that, Shirou Emiya mastered the shooting skills based on his own understanding.
However, Chiron didn't know why his divine wisdom, which could only work on Servants, could also work on Shirou Emiya.
But even without divine wisdom, Chiron could not resist passing on his knowledge to a student like Emiya Shirou who had great talent, was willing to work hard, and listened attentively to the lectures.
At this time, Emiya Shirou's attack did not stop.
At the moment when the rain of swords disappeared, Archer immediately realized what Emiya Shirou's next shot would be, and he let out a violent shout in the thick fog.
"Master! Run!"
Hakuno Kishinami didn't hesitate at all, and used all his strength to run towards the back.
“Pseudo Spiral Sword (Caladbolg Ⅱ)——!”
The next second————
"biu————!"
The space was torn apart in an instant.
The atmosphere was cut apart in an instant.
Thunder surges wildly.
In less than a blink of an eye, the spiral sword arrow flew into the thick fog.
"Rho Aias!!!"
The cherry blossom-shaped shield also appeared in front of Archer at the moment when the spiral sword arrow came flying in.
"boom----!"
A horrific explosion occurred in an instant.
Under the influence of the computer technique (Code Cast), Kishinami Hakuno ran desperately to a distance of nearly 100 meters.
At this moment, she felt the terrifying power coming from behind her, and without hesitation, she used her magic power again to form a circle in front of her through the computer technique (Code Cast).
Then he was blown away by the terrifying force.
The red flames formed into exploding fire tornadoes that rubbed against the air and swept through the atmosphere with a humming sound.
Just like a nuclear bomb explosion, the restaurant where Archer was located disappeared in an instant.
The terrifying air wave raged wildly.
It grinds the ground.
It destroys walls.
It crushes the atmosphere.
By the time the momentum started to weaken, the entire three-story room where Archer was located had become a mess.
