章 161: Chapter 157
I was finally sent out of the Rayshift as I felt a group of hands grab onto me as we all fell down towards the ground from a couple dozen meters in the air.
"Why the hell can't they just teleport us a few meters at most above the air!" I cursed as I looked around and noticed everyone thankfully wasn't plummeting to the ground as all the master's used various methods to slow them down from hitting the ground below us or their Servant just held them as they smashed into the ground.
I used my jet boots to quickly lower my trio of Servants down to the ground as Nero was using me for a piggyback ride and although Artoria didnt seem to care. I could tell Morgan was getting irritated with how nonchalantly promiscuous Nero was from how her hands were squeezing my arm in concert with her tightening eyes.
Basically, Nero was interfering in her plans to see if I was worthy enough to be an equal to her and not just a househusband to dote upon.
As I looked around, I instantly noticed the massive ring of flashing lights in the sky and had to shake my head seeing the proof that I still had a long way to go before I could make something a powerful as Solomon's ring of light that scoured the surface of the planet into a desert wasteland.
I mean the ring was made out of literally millions of individual rays of light and each one was as powerful as Artoria's normal Excalibur full effort blasts.
I am still a long way from making my sword equal to Excalibur as materials worthy to reach that level are being protected by entities that match the level of said material. But here in FGO where high level monsters and demon gods will go after us, will allow me to take that next step in become stronger.
"Woah look at that ring of light Mashu!" Fujimaru cried as she herself finally took in the surroundings.
Romani and Olga then projected themselves as all the master's separated a bit on the ground via holograms emitting from our wrists and began explaining how that ring of light is what destroyed the Human Order in the native timeline and told us.
"We are sensing a French scout brigade approaching. Jake, should we make contact?" Mash asked me and I looked over where she was pointing and cresting over one of the surrounding hills was a group of a couple dozen or so medieval armed soldiers.
"Go ahead Mash, Fujimaru, you both are probably the most disarming in appearance." I ordered without much care. I mean what could simply human soldier's do to Mash who would be protecting Fujimaru?
We all kept a bit of distance between us and Mash and as the two girls approached the armed men who paused seeing the two girls allowing Mash and Fujimaru to talk for a couple moments.
I couldn't help but facepalm as the leading solider abruptly screamed loudly and then pointed us all and ordered his men. "Enemy Attack! Enemy Attack!"
"Peh! They aren't even worth cleaning the blood off my Chakra." Ashwatthama cursed as he slumped onto the ground and began boredly pulling out the grass as Mash awkwardly began beating the poor soldiers half to death her with the flat side of her massive shield as she obviously didnt want to outright kill the idiots.
A few minutes later Mashu and Ritsuka let the battered soldiers limp off and Ritsuka came back to my side with a wry smile as she apologized for such a first contact meeting with the locals.
"It's fine, now we can just follow them as with so many being noncritically injured they will make their way back to their place of operations. Which we will need to gather information from for the abnormalities that have caused this Singularity." I said giving Fujimaru an out for her abject failure.
"Shouldn't we separate to search around Jake?" Kadoc asked me with a couple members of the previous A team perking up at the question.
I firmly shook my head as regardless of how all there Servants except for Wangling, Akuta's Servant being fully capable of thrashing most of the Servants here in the Singularity, it still wasn't safe at all should a few of the berserker modified Servants that Jalter summoned dog pile one of the separated members.
"We need to see what we are up against first then once we gain a sort of threat assessment to the locals, we can separate into a couple groups if needed." I said leading the other five masters and their Servants towards where the French scouts fled after Mash smashed them.
'Better Mash smashing them with her oversized shield and not Berserker Tamamo's claw's disemboweling...' I thought dryly seeing said Berserker hanging onto one of Ritsuka's arms.
It was a half an hour's march that led those soldiers to a dilapidated castle with its surrounding walls pock marked by massive claw marks and burns along the top of said wall.
I walked forward to the obviously scared soldiers who froze up seeing our group again and called out. "We are not here to harm you. Please put down your weapons, we are here to find out what has happened as we have just entered your fair land from Northern Africa and have no idea what the cause of this anarchy is." I explained quickly and many of the soldier's just slumped in relief hearing I wasn't some British solider that has come to strike them while they were weakened.
Seeing as the leading soldier seemed to have calmed down, I quickly got information for the rest of the group to hear as although I knew Jalter was running around trying to burn the world to ashes in her desire for revenge against God abandoning her to be burned at the stake.
Apparently according to the soldier, the vengeful spirit of the late saintess of Orleans Jeanne D'Arc had arisen and put the kingdom of France to the torch in response to her betrayal after serving France in battle.
After a bit more talking to the soldiers to get more information of the surrounding land, I heard Ashwatthama call out from atop the castle walls. "Hey! There is a hoard of undead skeletons rushing over here."
I hummed in thought as the several hundred skeletons rushed towards us but then Ashwatthama called out again with more excitement. "Ooh goodie! I call dibs on the wyverns coming up behind the skeletons!"
Without me even giving an order the Berserker disguised as an Archer powerfully jumped off the castle walls into the air bypassing the skeleton army heading our way in order to get a decent fight with the wyverns.
"Master... I wanna go fight dragons!" Nero whined as she pulled on my air pitifully.
"No Nero we need to deal with the skeletons for now." I sighed and stepped forward to do just that. "Mash, Scathach, and Nero you all stay back to protect the occupants of the castle as well as the masters who can't fight. The rest with me." I ordered as my sword appeared within my hand allowing me to send a wide beam of condensed black flames that collapsed a large crowd of the skeletons.
