"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
At President King Edison's command, not only was Achilles about to make a move, but the doors in several directions of the hall opened, and then rows upon rows, teams upon teams of Mechanical Dolls continuously poured in.
"Are you baring your fangs, Lion?"
Mo Shuying looked at Edison and spoke.
Edison sneered coldly, his fangs gleaming.
"Before, my methods were far too gentle, so gentle they didn't befit a king. That's why those Servants didn't choose to join me. But starting today, if you don't join, you die!!"
Edison roared, head thrown back, like a tyrant!
Mo Shuying shook his head and turned to look at Karna.
"Achilles is yours."
"Yes!"
Karna smiled; he had waited all night for this moment! The fire in his body and soul finally had an outlet!
"As for this lion-head, I always felt there was something off about him."
Mo Shuying looked at Edison. This student Edison, in fact, wasn't bad by nature. The reason for his extreme authoritarianism was the vengeful spirits of America's Presidents attaching themselves to him, turning him into a dictator.
Logically, ordinary souls shouldn't be able to influence Servants.
But this Edison was different. From the moment he gained a lion's head, his summoning was extremely chaotic, an extreme manifestation where attributes were either E or EX. Despite his muscular physique, his Strength and Agility were E, which was also a sign of this chaos.
His EX-level Territory Creation and Item Creation were only truly D-rank. Such a chaotic Servant allowed the vengeful spirits of the Presidents to find an opportunity and possess this lion-headed President King.
"I remember in the story, this guy was talked down. Unfortunately, I don't have such great eloquence, so…"
Mo Shuying brought his fists together, confirming that talking with fists was indeed the most direct and convenient way!
"Grin and bear it, lion-head! I'm here to knock some sense into you!"
After Mo Shuying finished speaking, he rushed towards Edison. Helena, who had been standing by Edison's side, immediately stepped forward. A golden magic book appeared before her, and Helena frowned, shouting,
"Stand down!"
"Whoosh!"
A fiery storm immediately surged forth, engulfing Mo Shuying.
"Hm?"
Helena herself was startled. She had only intended to force Mo Shuying back, not truly harm him, so she quickly withdrew her hand. However, the next sight made Helena's jaw drop!
"Hiss!"
The sound of fabric tearing rang out. Helena watched as Mo Shuying directly tore apart her Mana storm with his bare hands!
"This much Mana! It's far from enough to hurt me!"
Mo Shuying possessed Mana Resistance B, plus various shield damage reductions. Unless it was a major Magecraft or grand spell, it would be difficult to harm him.
Helena's expression changed; she knew she couldn't hold back. Pages in her hand flipped! She prepared to cast Magecraft again! But this time, Mo Shuying was faster!
"Too slow!"
Mo Shuying used Flash to appear beside Helena, snatched the magic book from her in her astonished state, then grabbed Helena's arm and violently flung her towards Fujimaru Ritsuka!
"Ah!!"
Helena was thrown like a little chick. Child Gil, being very sensible, waved his hand, and Chains of Heaven appeared, binding Helena in mid-air.
At this moment, as Mo Shuying threw Helena, he sent a flying kick towards Edison! Edison crossed his arms to block, and then!
"Boom!"
Edison's massive body crashed through the throne beneath him and then into the wall behind him. Mo Shuying withdrew his left leg and walked towards Edison.
On the other side.
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
Karna looked at Achilles and spoke coldly.
Achilles had a smile on his face.
"Actually, you've misunderstood a bit. Miss Helena and I both noticed there was something wrong with our boss. Inviting you here was also to see if you had a way to help him regain his senses. He wasn't like this before."
"..."
Karna frowned; he suddenly felt that this fight might not happen.
"Just leave that kind of thing for them to handle. Let's have a fight."
Karna raised his Long Spear, and a ball of golden flame burned on the shaft.
"Must we fight?"
"You could also stand still and let me poke you a few times."
"Hmph~ I don't have a fetish for standing still and letting men poke me with spears. Let's go outside. If we fight in here and break things, it'll be a hassle to repair."
With that, Achilles turned and transformed into a streak of lightning, running away. This was the Noble Phantasm known as Comet Running Method, a manifestation of Achilles's speed. As long as his heel wasn't hit, he could run at astonishing speeds.
Even Karna found this speed troublesome, but where's the fun without a challenge? Karna's fighting spirit surged! The scarf behind him erupted into flames, and the twin shoulder shields shot out raging fire as he charged forward.
As the two left, the Mechanical Dolls rushing in through the front gate were no match for Karna. After a moment of confusion, these dolls refocused their target on Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others. So, the dolls raised their weapons and began to attack.
"Exterminate!"
The Mechanical Dolls raised their firearms and unleashed a storm of bullets. Mash raised her shield, protecting Fujimaru Ritsuka behind her. However, these robot dolls were rushing in from all directions.
"Look out, Master!"
Mash clearly couldn't protect everyone, but she had teammates.
"I've wanted to try these metal guys out ever since London. Today, I finally get my wish!"
Li Shuwen suddenly charged out with his hands clasped behind his back, his movements ghost-like as he darted on his toes, dodging bullets until he reached a Mechanical Doll. He threw a seemingly soft and powerless punch that landed on the doll's body!
"*Boom!*"
With a loud crash, the doll exploded into pieces! Even the robot dolls behind it were struck by the shrapnel.
"Heh, not bad."
A slight smile played on Li Shuwen's lips. He continued to move forward, landing punches. These Mechanical Dolls couldn't withstand a single hit from him.
Seeing Li Shuwen dismantle a Gundam with his bare hands, Child Gil also smirked and raised his hand.
"If I don't act now, my status will drop even further! Go!"
Golden light unfurled in the air, and Noble Phantasms rained down like shooting stars! Although these Mechanical Dolls had all-metal exteriors, this level of defense was insignificant against Noble Phantasms.
Each strike was a one-hit kill, directly shattering the Mechanical Dolls.
For a moment, only Black Lancer Alter, wearing her black helmet, didn't move. She watched Mo Shuying with interest, observing how the massive lion-headed President King was being batted around like a ball.
"Siphoning Strike!"
"*Bang!*"
"Ahhh!!"
Mo Shuying punched Edison in the chest, sending him flying to crash into a wall.
A trace of gray-purple energy leaked from Edison's body and dissipated. Mo Shuying figured that was the so-called resentful spirits of the Presidents.
Siphoning Strike directly targeted the soul. Although this would also harm Edison, he, as a Servant, should be at least a little stronger than those resentful spirits, right?
So...
"Hang in there, lion-head. If you can't take it and get killed, don't blame me!"
Mo Shuying clasped his fists together, and a purple soul flame once again ignited on his fist.
