"According to the route map given by Dr. Hyde, this is the only place in the surrounding blocks where multiple Chaos Mechanical Soldiers will not pass."
After about three hours of groping along the foggy streets with Mordred and his Master, Matthew stopped and projected a map superimposed with the data given by Henry Jekyll.
On the map, the red routes surrounding the buildings and running along the streets intertwined with each other, wrapping this area within it.
The location where Matthew and others are now is the only place in the surrounding area that does not have such a dense patrol line.
After all, although the previous equipment that Dr. Hyde called the Chaos Mechanical Soldier would not pose much of a threat to heroic spirits like Mordred, it could still threaten Artoria in unexpected places just like it threatened Artoria before. Followers.
Through the descriptions of Mordred and Dr. Hyde, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu also learned that huge chaos robots similar to the ones before were patrolling the streets of London.
Their number is by no means a minority.
If there were one or two, maybe Matthew and Mordred could handle it easily.
But if there are dozens or even hundreds of the same robots————————
I'm afraid the problem can't be solved by saying to Mordred, "Use your invincible anti-army weapon quickly and think of a solution!"
Therefore, Fujimaru Ritsuka and others, who had to move slowly under the fog, began to walk cautiously on the streets of London. During this period, they passed by the patrolling Chaos Mechanical Soldiers several times.
This also resulted in the fact that even though they had advanced for a full three hours, the straight-line distance between them and Dr. Hyde's residence was probably less than two thousand meters.
And every time he had a thrilling encounter with the Chaos Mechanical Soldier, Matthew would worry about the rebellious knight next to him who looked frizzy, but actually acted just as frizzy as he looked and directly raised Clarent———— —The Sword of the Chosen King, which should have belonged to King Arthur's treasure house and was comparable to the Sword in the Stone, Caliburn, and rushed directly towards the enemy right in front of him.
Although she signed a contract on the way here, Matthew didn't know why the senior who was also beside her didn't pay any attention to Mordred's troublesome personality.
The truth was that her worries were completely in vain.
Should we say that although Mordred rebelled against King Arthur in the end, he was indeed worthy of being a member of the Knights of the Round Table?
Regarding how the battle should proceed, Matthew's worries about her were obviously unnecessary.
Of course, Mordred knew the possible consequences of rashly starting a fight on the block.
If it is restrained by several Chaos Mechanical Soldiers and attracts more enemies, then it will obviously fail at the tactical level regardless of its strength.
"Doctor, we are already in place. Are the data collection ready?"
After receiving a positive report from Mashu, Fujimaru Ritsuka said to Roman on the other side of the screen.
"No problem, but I'm really lucky that you were able to reach your destination without alerting the enemy. I thought countless times that we were going to start a battle halfway."
"After all, unlike some useless doctor who can only stare at the white monitor in a daze, we have a reliable Knight of the Round Table here."
Fujimaru Ritsuka mocked Roman, who seemed to be very busy, but could hardly do anything in this singularity in London.
"Even if you say that, I don't have much else to do. After all, it's not actually that the detection was interrupted, but that there was too much 'noise' caused by the high magic content in the magic mist, making it impossible to distinguish the enemy..." …”
Roman could only defend himself helplessly in the face of the blame placed on him.
But he also knew that these were the few things he could do for Fujimaru Ritsuka, but his dereliction of duty in detecting the enemy left him with no confidence to defend himself.
"Well, it's just a joke. Doctor, didn't you also set up a magic circle at Dr. Hyde's mansion? I'll leave it to you for the supplies. Remember not to eat the snacks that Matthew prepared for me this time?"
Fortunately, after Chaldea's survey and mapping, it was discovered that Dr. Hyde's house is located right on the spiritual vein, which saves Fujimaru Ritsuka and others from continuing to work in an environment that can be considered difficult to move in today's London. The trouble of finding a suitable base.
"Ah, of course! You know, I haven't eaten Japanese sweets once since then... huh?"
As Roman spoke, he checked the list of supplies to be delivered to the singularity, but he fell silent halfway through the check.
"What's wrong doctor?"
"How could there be no more!"
Roman checked the list of goods back and forth, but even though he looked through it from top to bottom, he still couldn't find the red bean paste buns that should have been left as a luxury item in the apocalypse.
"Are you sure that all types of supplies are recorded on the list?"
She quickly turned to look at the staff member behind her who was organizing supplies, but Roman could only get a frightened nod from her.
"Hey, could it be the red bean paste buns I left specially for seniors?"
"Hey! Doctor, you guy, could it be possible that you actually ate it secretly again?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I have almost forgotten what the red bean paste buns taste like. How could I have eaten them!"
"You guy, you were the one who stole the food last time, right...have you forgotten the taste now?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka held her forehead helplessly.
"Well, it sounds like it is when you say it that way. It's really weird. But I really don't remember what the red bean paste buns taste like. It's really weird."
Roman, who repeated the strange things on both sides, was really confused now.
"Well... since you're not a doctor and you ate it secretly, there should be an error in the records, right? For example, there's no such snack left, so there's no need to worry about that kind of thing."
Fujimaru Ritsuka forgave Roman unexpectedly and generously, so much so that he himself was a little unresponsive.
Although it is indeed not a big deal, considering the girl's personality that Roman knows, he must bring up this topic at least five or six times to suppress his personal dignity.
"But I clearly prepared snacks for senior——"
"But it's not what the doctor stole, right? I don't know why, but I just feel like this. And to be honest, Matthew, do you have a deep memory of our previous preparations?"
"Huh? Senior, if you talk about it like that..."
When Matthew recalled it, she found that the memories before they went to the singularity were indeed a bit hazy, or extremely ambiguous.
"I'm afraid it's because of the magic fog and the singularity. My memory is a little hazy now. Where is Mordred?"
Fujimaru Ritsuka asked Mordred, who was uncharacteristically silent, closing his eyes and holding his breath.
However, Mordred did not answer her question. Instead, he suddenly opened his eyes and shouted:
"coming!"
At this time, Mashu felt the slight vibration on the ground, and immediately entered a fighting state, setting up a shield in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"Clarent Blood Arthur (rebellion against my gorgeous father)————!"
Without holding anything back, Mordred used all his strength to release the Noble Phantasm the moment he locked the enemy's position. As soon as the huge mechanical figure revealed some outlines from the magic mist, it was pierced by blood-red lightning and magic power.
Despite this, the Chaos Mechanical Soldier still did not lose its combat effectiveness immediately. On the contrary, the honeycomb sensor on its head first glowed red like what they had seen before, and then it was determined in an instant. Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu's position, and fired a series of bullets after the harsh gunshots.
“Dang-dang-dang-dang-dang————”
A series of metal collisions sounded from Mashu's shield.
As expected, all the bullets were easily blocked by her, while the Chaos Mechanical Soldier not far away also hit the street powerlessly.
"Huh--, call it a day!"
After completing the task, Mordred wiped the non-existent sweat from his forehead and then said with the same cheerful expression as before.
"What a neat blow. As expected of Sir Mordred, you did a great job."
Matthew did not hesitate to express his sincere praise, and then continued:
"Speaking of the previous question, is Sir Mordred's memory vague?"
"Well, when you say it like that, it does sound like it is--but is it really okay to be so relaxed? Matthew."
The vague hostility in Mordred's words was keenly captured by Matthew.
"Senior, be careful!"
The moment the words came out, Mashu knocked Fujimaru Ritsuka aside, then raised his shield to respond to Mordred's blow.
The magic contained in the sword told her mercilessly that Mordred was serious.
"Hey, although my attitude is very relaxed, my response is still very fast."
Although he said this, Clarent in Mordred's hand did not stop for a moment, hitting Matthew's shield one blow after another.
Mashu, who was barely resisting, asked in confusion:
"Why do you do this? Why do you suddenly attack your senior and your own Master, Lord Mordred?"
"ha?"
Mordred smiled in astonishment as if he heard something ridiculous.
"Didn't you already tell the answer yourself? Matthew? I have already announced my family status at the earliest. My name is Mordred, and I am the rebellious knight who killed his master and biological father. .Isn’t it natural to rebel against the Master?”
"How could it be possible————But Miss Mordred is not that kind of person at all!"
Although he had only been with Mordred for less than a day, but through his friendship with the unknown Knight of the Round Table who might have lent him his spiritual power, Matthew clearly realized that Mordred was not as good as in the legend. So ruthless.
"Are you still using that kind of name that looks down on people... Unfortunately, although the records of later generations are not entirely accurate, there is no fallacy in the fact that I killed my biological father, King Arthur. I personally and voluntarily sent this sword to her Of the chest————!”
The sword and shield collided fiercely.
