"Now, immediately, immediately—come and kill me!"

This is what Li Xiang thought of.

Possessing wisdom and power, it will appear out of thin air when executing the commission, and disappear out of thin air after the commission is over.When it disappears out of thin air, even the followers can't stop it - isn't the best solution to such a monster is the decoy tactic?

And I, who is close to God, who will never be killed by dead apostles, is undoubtedly the most suitable [bait].

The disappearing body of Spring Heeled Jack stopped disintegrating and reassembled into that eerie form.Lixiang threw the phone aside and took out the black key, all the servants around were also ready to fight immediately.

The monster lay on the ground with its distorted and weird body, and opened its hideous big mouth of the pumpkin head.

"Guha... Guhahahahaha... Guhahahaha!!!"

With a big laugh, he rushed towards Lixiang.

■Movie Time·Somewhere

The figure waved the chain blade in his hand, and smashed the monster as tall as a hill together with the surrounding buildings.The monster fell down with a crash, but the attention of the person wielding the chain blade was no longer on the monster.

"This [feeling]... this time the dead disciples are so strong, they have reached the average level of followers. Moreover, I always feel that all the cases in this city have a strange sense of familiarity..."

[She] suddenly had an extremely strong premonition, although she didn't know what was going to happen, it was definitely not a good thing—for that child who was very important to her.

"—Wait for me, Lixiang, I'll go right away!"

□? ? ? ·? ? ?

"Stay tuned, Fujimaru Tachika, my [love]!"

The madman who existed here laughed, and he didn't know what he was thinking about, and it immediately went high.

"Ah, this is my love for you, the gift I give you. Once again, once again, pierce me with that angry sword! All of this is love!!"

Thus, the solution to the case (singularity) begins.

19. The thing called inferiority

■Shadow Time・Factory where the topic has passed

In the past, let's talk about topics about the past.

For some reason, the topography of London at this moment is exactly the same as Li Xiang's last mission before leaving the church--that city.

All the people in that city were turned into an army of death by the dead disciples who were described in the fairy tale. The girl purified all the people in that city for the sake of the world, and because of this result, she fell into a rage and killed the fairy in the fairy tale.Then, in despair and self-blame, return to the ordinary world.

However, the reason for the girl's rage and despair... Unexpectedly, it was not actually because of [Death Toll].

The traveler girl who knew something about this world called Xingyue in her previous life had actually made up her mind.

Although she hates misfortune, she would want to die because of a lot of misfortune, but she has made up her mind.In the final analysis, if it is really just [people in a city were killed by dead gangsters], no matter what, the conclusion should be [I must continue to work hard to kill gangsters] instead of [resign] right.

What makes the girl desperate is the [process] of the city's destruction.

The goblin did nothing.

That guy just spread the accessories with his own power in the city, and the number of these original accessories may not be four digits.

The people of that city...

that city...

——They were killed by [myself].

Some people actively rely on the infectious ability of accessories to increase the number of accessories for their own purposes, and some people take the initiative to turn others into dead bodies for their own sake.These [initiatives] gradually fermented with the accumulation of [numbers], and the slowly accumulating disaster suddenly burst and flooded the entire city without knowing when.

Those people destroy themselves, those people kill themselves.This is the reason for the girl's rage, this is the reason for the girl's despair.

'Why do you think of this now? '

Li Xiang, who jumped into the air, thought subconsciously.

It seems too early to say that the images that suddenly reverberated in my mind are revolving doors, and Lixiang thinks it may be [sense of déjà vu].

After all, the events that happened in this city are too similar to those at that time.It can even be said that it is simply a reenactment of that time.

Putting aside the sense of déjà vu, Lixiang refocused on the ongoing battle in front of him.

Spring Heeled Jack, sparked the [rumor] of a serial murder case.I don't know why they are driven by the [Entrustment], and... it seems that they will actively exclude those who try to leak the information of the [City Development Committee].

By entrusting it to kill itself, Lixiang and everyone finally got the power to fight this monster.

Recalling the cause of the factory manager's death just now, Lixiang was sorting out the "case" up to now while avoiding the attack of the pumpkin head monster and cooperating with the followers to counterattack.

According to the Second King, the Urban Development Committee, this special institution that exists in the singularity does not even have followers, and everyone is sincerely acting for the development of London.These are all information obtained by relying on implied magic. With the knowledge of the Second King and the power of the servant Zhuge Kongming, there should be no mistakes in this information.

However, what happened to the factory manager fully demonstrated that the Urban Development Committee is the "behind the scenes" and is still carrying out a certain conspiracy.

What concerned Lixiang the most was the timing when Spring Heeled Jack got rid of the factory manager.

The factory director was not attacked when he said that the committee was behind the scenes, but was attacked when he planned to say what the committee was going to do.In other words, the committee's conspiracy is a conspiracy of "It is impossible to stop unless you know the method".

What would it be?

Lixiang couldn't figure it out, and in fact, neither could the second generation.In magic cases, [manipulation] is the least important thing. Even the extremely degraded modern magic can do such exaggerated things as slowing down the speed of light.The only thing a magician can't hide is motivation.

Relying on the forensic eye that can see through the essence of magic, II has solved many magic cases by means of "seeing through motives".However, the most important thing about the case (puzzle) this time is not the motive, but the technique.

While thinking, the battle is also going on.

[Spring Heeled Jack], this monster and the four dead apostles who are the main body of [Great Strangulation Panic] can be said to be completely different to Lixiang.

Those four dead disciples weren't even considered trash fish, after all the trash fish had to be beaten.He obviously has special abilities, but he is as weak as four [dead people].How irrational, it's like a man who can't even lift a [-]kg dumbbell can lift a truck with one finger.

This pumpkin head monster is different, it is a real [monster].Even the so-called Pingbao followers might be killed by this pumpkin-headed monster if they were at a disadvantage in terms of compatibility.

Its body, which is essentially its own shadow, can change shape drastically, while also stretching and compressing like a shadow.And, the speed of deformation is supersonic.

According to the information deconstructed from the rumors, this monster seems to have the ability to breathe flames.However, Li Xiang hadn't seen it until now after the battle, but he had seen it swallow a large amount of metal into its mouth for physical refining before.

It is also very powerful, about a C in terms of the level of a servant.Because the body is a shadow, the immortality is also exaggerated. Even if it is purified by Lixiang, as long as the head is torn off and thrown out before it is completely purified, it can be revived instantly with full blood.In addition, it can also create shadow clones.

The huge iron claw in his hand is also very strong, and it collides with the servant's treasure continuously but it has not been damaged... Or, because the essence of the weapon is also a shadow, it is meaningless if it is damaged?

Speaking of which, this guy is unexpectedly a complete [monster].

It will appear next to the victim out of thin air [cannot escape] or [cannot beat] the victim, and it is obviously [unable to communicate] and [incomprehensible] as it just keeps laughing.Especially for ordinary people, it is [unable to kill].

As a monster, it is too classic, pumpkin head monster or something, people who don’t know it think it’s Halloween now.

The pumpkin head kept laughing, and the two sides jumped out through the ceiling of the factory in the struggle.

The moon is shining brightly in the sky, and tonight is a full moon that seems to light up the whole earth.

The pumpkin-headed monster was lying on the roof, and its piercing jeers resounded through the night sky.

"I really have a relationship with [Monster]..."

Thinking of the experience before his death, Kai couldn't help but say this.The monster stretches its limbs and rushes towards Lixiang, killing her in order to complete Lixiang's commission.The girl flicked the black keys with both hands, and the fact that she was fighting an undead monster in this London once again gave her a strong sense of déjà vu.

"Yard!"

"If you think you use it well!"

Saying that, Yad transformed into a giant boomerang in Gray's hands.Transformable weapons are really too romantic, but unfortunately romance will not increase combat effectiveness under normal circumstances.

Matthew on the side also raised the shield in her hand, and used her special skill of turning the shield that would be called Captain Chaldea.Two huge flying props draw interlaced trajectories in the air, like a pair of huge scissors, they want to cut the pumpkin head of the monster in front of them into two pieces.

Nishi, who jumped out of the factory unskillfully following everyone, immediately snapped his fingers at the monster, and at the same time, two floating cannons like Marisa's gossip furnace flew out from his side.

I don't know what kind of magic II used. Suddenly, a huge gossip pattern appeared under the pumpkin head monster's feet, and it was restrained in place as if it had been hit by a fixation spell.

... No, it must have been affected by the immobilization spell.

Mash and Grey's long-range attacks seemed to be about to hit the pumpkin's head, and Lixiang also immediately used the black key throwing technique to throw a dozen black keys.II's floating cannon also approached the monster's pumpkin head at this time, and it was about to release a magical light to penetrate the pumpkin.

However, the pumpkin head fell off the body before the attack hit.And this drop made all the attacks come to nothing.

"—Tsk, is this the most important point of [The body is a shadow]?!"

Li Xiang couldn't help but say that.

The body is a shadow, a mass-produced product—that is, something that can be thrown away at will.

The monster voluntarily abandoned its body and avoided everyone's attacks in this way.Then it regenerated its own body again, making an even harsher mocking sound.

Just then, a sword flew towards it.

If a sword thrown with the strength of a servant hits it, it would be no surprise that it would cut off a thick block of steel.The one who threw the sword was Kai, and this kind of way of throwing the sword is really not something a serious knight would do.

"—But I'm not a serious knight in the first place!"

Kai said so.

The timing of his throwing the sword was just right, and Mash and Gray just caught the weapon that he flew back.Monsters undoubtedly have wisdom, and because of their wisdom, flaws will inevitably appear at that moment.

It's a pity that the monster's shadow body is too easy to use, and even the sword thrown at the best time failed to hit its pumpkin head.

"Guha... Guhahahahaha...!!"

The monster laughed wantonly, as if laughing at Kai's wasted efforts.Its body contracted instantly, and then expanded to burst out countless spikes.

Even Servants have to dodge, after all, the strength of the opponent is also Servant level.It is Lixiang as a human being who does not need to avoid the attack in front of her. If she is hit by those spikes attached to monsters as a near-god, the monsters will be purified by her power instead.

Therefore, monsters will always avoid Lixiang when they attack in a large area, and Lixiang will take the initiative to receive these shadow attacks in turn.

The monster couldn't even touch Lixiang.

However, Spring Heeled Jack also has a way to complete his commission and fight Lixiang.It smiled and opened its big mouth, and the barrel of a machine gun protruded from its mouth.

It can even make a machine gun out of the metal it swallows...

By the way, when we were inside the factory just now, this monster swallowed all the metal in the factory.Obviously its body is just a pumpkin head, but it can store so many things in its body.

Thinking that the rumors of [Spring Heeled Jack] and the rumor of [Great Strangulation Panic] are often compared in this city, Li Xiang couldn't help but say [Are those a few miscellaneous fish worthy? ] thoughts.

Lixiang is still in the human domain, and he can indeed be shot to death.Compared to the special abilities of the Dead Apostles, guns might be a greater threat.This monster, which might become a series of movies if it goes to Hollywood, seems to be declaring to Lixiang in this way, telling the truth that the times have changed.

So Lixiang performed running to avoid bullets and black key to chop bullets on the spot, telling the reality of this monster who can stick out the barrel from his mouth [it is still 1888].

[Li, Lixiang?Are you sure you are still in the human realm? ]

"The speed of the bullet's flight is supersonic, but it doesn't mean that the speed of the bullet's excitation is supersonic. You just need to predict it. This is just the basic skill of the burial mechanism."

To Roman's question, Lixiang took the time to answer in the interval of the battle.

[…What's with this line that seems to appear in a superhero movie or a shounen manga? ]

If these are the foundations of the burial mechanism, Roman is now a little curious about what is in the burial mechanism.

While dodging the bullet, Lixiang also took out the black key and slashed at the monster's body.The monster then once again broke off its pumpkin head and escaped.

At this moment, bells rang throughout London.

Movie time is over.

Although the movie time is over, the monster is still lying on the roof of the factory.As a matter of course, he left the space of shadow time.

Although the Dead Apostle was supposed to be able to leave, everyone still felt that the fact that this monster could leave Shadow Time itself revealed something unusual.

The battle is still going on, and neither side has any intention of backing down just because the shadow time is over.It seems to understand that the times have not changed, so the monster no longer uses the American Iaido, but takes out two huge and high-speed rotating circular saws from its mouth.

"...Speaking of which, although I sometimes feel [what is it like to call someone like me out as a servant], the body of a servant is surprisingly convenient."

Kai suddenly said that, and stretched out his hand to the pumpkin monster.

"According to modern mythological research, [the weapon that can fly back by itself] is the power of God. But after becoming a servant, as long as the magic power is enough, even the servant can do such a thing."

The next moment, a sword pierced through the monster's pumpkin head.The blade entered the back of its head and exited its mouth.

It was Kai's sword.

This is the first time he has dealt damage to this monster since encountering it.

Although not particularly brilliant in any aspect except eloquence, Kai is a truly informal knight in battle.If he was asked to hunt vampires, he would never use the silver sword honestly, but would melt the silver sword and process it into a bullet and stuff it into a submachine gun.

The servant has the ability to automatically recall the weapon with enough magic power, so he tried to use the unique ability of this servant as a sneak attack.

Under Kai's call, the sword pierced through the monster's head and flew back to his hand, but the pumpkin monster with a hole in its head did not die.

Rather, it seems to have gone berserk instead.

"...The weak point is not the [head] but [somewhere on the head]? It's really hard to kill, hey!"

Kay yelled, and after releasing a large number of shadow clones, the monster suddenly lay on the ground like a cat that only wanted to hunt.

Then, for the first time, he closed his mouth tightly.
