Chapter 1640: Two against One
In the western part of Fuyuki, in the basement of an abandoned warehouse, a room about 50 square meters in size.
Candles were burning in the room, illuminating the space with a dim light.
The man was sitting on a wooden chair in front of the desk. There was a glass of red wine and various documents on the table. Such an environment would make an ordinary person feel uncomfortable, but the priest looked calm because it was safe and quiet enough here.
While reading the book, he suddenly became thoughtful. Just recently, he felt something unpleasant, it felt like someone was staring at him intently, but this feeling seemed a little unrealistic.
That man was Kotomine Kirei, and he didn't seem particularly pleased at the moment.
*Boom!*
There was a loud bang from the entrance.
The man immediately got up from his chair and stood in a rack, looking at the entrance, however, a shadow immediately flashed in front of his eyes.
Hearing the whistle, Kirei immediately felt a tingling sensation on his back.
With a whoosh, the long blade pierced right through him. Looking down, he stared at the bloody tip of the blade. He didn't need to guess who exactly had attacked him, it was most likely a Heroic Soul.
— It seems… I was faster, " Su Xiao muttered, and heaved a sigh of relief.
It was only thanks to Bubtney that he was able to arrive here so quickly.
At first, Su Xiao used the Duke of Nirvana to slow down Stan and his deputies, while Bubtny kept distracting them while rushing towards Kotomina Kireyu at full speed.
When Stan and his two deputies left the Duke of Nirvana's kill zone, Bubtney once again used the Wolf Clan's Family Heirloom. Su Xiao rushed towards Stan not because he wanted to fight them, but because Bubtney had placed a mark behind them.
And after a few more minutes, Bubtney set up another tag, then teleported Su Xiao to his place.
As for whether the Blood Gate had any spatial skills or items, Su Xiao decided to place a bet on it. He was betting that Blood Gate, a fourth-ranked guild, didn't have a suitable ability or item available in this world. An item or ability that could move to the desired location at any time was clearly a rarity among fourth-rank contractors.
A family heirloom of the wolf clan was considered a legendary item with a rating of 508, but even so, to use a teleport, you had to set two marks at the beginning, and this teleport led only to one end and could only be used once.
Su Xiao had a spatial ability, Dragon Shadow, but this skill only allowed him to move 12 meters.
So according to his understanding, the skills and things that allowed him to move freely in space either required detailed and lengthy adjustments, or had serious limitations in the range of movement. Most likely, the Wolf Clan's Family Heirloom was a very unique item, since he had only been able to find one such item in all that time.
As for moving over extremely long distances, without creating a very detailed array, the end point would be questionable. Less-than-lucky contractors might end up in the ground or building.
If Blood Gate had a teleport and came to Kirei first, Su Xiao would have accepted it, but even a fifth-ranked contractor probably couldn't have the right skill or item, let alone a fourth-ranked guild.
As Su Xiao's sword pierced through Kirei's heart, the spider attached to the ceiling looked at Su Xiao.
Yinglan suddenly stopped, opened the guild chat, and used her moderation rights to send an emergency message.
«Yinglan (Deputy Leader): Our main mission is about to fail, everyone in the world of Destiny, start withdrawing from the guild».
This emergency message appeared before the eyes of all the guild members.
Most of them were stunned. Some of them even started to rub their eyes, wanting to check what they saw.
Did they lose so easily? They couldn't even see their enemy.
In case of failure of the main guild mission, the participants who took part in its implementation could save their lives by leaving the guild, but usually such a sudden exit was accompanied by the loss of 50-60% of all characteristics and the loss of 50% of all available property.
Was this a way to save his life? No, rather by postponing the date of his death.
As Su Xiao's sword pierced through Kirei, a roar rang out from above his head, and Sten roared as he flew down along with the broken concrete.
The longsword in Su Xiao's hands immediately spun and a faint line of blood spread across Kirei's body.
With a nasty sound, the priest shattered into pieces, and almost in the instant before his death, Bloodgate lost 76 people. They were all teleported out of this world. They didn't want to fight Su Xiao. As for those who stayed behind, because of their second delay, the penalty had doubled and it was now too late to try to escape.
Sten looked at Kirei's body parts and his heart stopped for a moment.
They lost.
The veins in his neck bulged, and his fists clenched so tightly that a crunch echoed through the room.
— Where the hell did you come from, you bastard?" The Smoker calmly asked as he entered the room, lit a cigarette and took a deep drag. — Byakuya, even if I lose, I won't die by your hands. After saying that, he blew out a puff of smoke and smiled.
Even if he dies today, he will die with honor.
Behind the Smoker, a chain appeared out of nowhere and stabbed into his back.
Cracks appeared on his skin, as if he wasn't a human being but a ceramic piece, and with each passing moment, his body was covered in more cracks.
In less than a second, all that was left was ash, but even that was gone in the end.
Even though Su Xiao had seen the forced execution of contractors many times, the terrifying fluctuations during the execution each time were etched into his memory like a huge weight. If one day these fluctuations hit his soul, it would be his last day in this world.
Stan looked at Su Xiao calmly. Oddly enough, he wasn't executed.
A curvy figure jumped down from above.
It was Yinglan.
She was also not executed.
This made Su Xiao realize that this couple probably had immunity to execution, but he also had similar immunity, he had received it a long time ago and never used it.
But even though this couple was immune, it had some very unpleasant drawbacks. Although they were able to avoid death, they could not stay in this world any longer, and in addition, everything they received in this world will be withdrawn.
— "Yinglan, your greatest weakness is your gentleness," Stan said.
When Yinglan announced their failure, she used administrator rights to do so, which caused her message to be seen not only by those in the world of Fate, but by all the members of Bloodgate in general.
Considering that so many people had left their guild in one moment today, and another part had been forcibly executed, it would definitely cause serious damage to the Blood Gate.
— I'm not like you. I'm not that violent. Even though every single one of them was a bastard and a murderer, since they went through all these hardships with us, I wouldn't let them die by forced execution, at least they should know about it, " Yinglan replied as she dusted off her clothes.
— A woman, " Stan muttered, and looked at Su Xiao.
The current situation was extremely simple.
It will be a two versus one fight.
