"Why are there so many Anomalies rushing over here?!"
On the rooftop, Master Taro, who had noticed the movement of the thousands of strange creatures, suddenly paled. His entire being was filled with anxiety.
"This is bad! There are so many Anomalies. No matter what, we cannot stop them! "
Taro gritted his teeth and hesitated for a moment. Then, he quickly made a decision. He jumped down from the rooftop and reported the situation to Musashi without hiding anything.
"Hurry up and take the Master away!"
After saying that, Little Taro immediately turned around, intending to walk in the direction of his master.
"Wait a minute. What about the hundreds of people left here …"
Musashi was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly regained his senses and spoke with a complicated expression.
"I am the Master's follower. No matter what happens, I will prioritize the safety of the Master's life."
Taro's footsteps paused slightly. Then, he said in a low voice, "Right now, we can only save the Master from here. We can't care about the others … besides, we might be the targets of those Anomalies. If we take the Master away from here, this place will become safer."
That was impossible.
The freaks were not beasts. The instinct of beasts was to survive. Killing was just a necessary behavior for survival. However, the instinct of the freaks was to kill. As long as any life was imprinted in their eyes, the freaks would destroy it immediately.
Even if they were really the target of the army of freaks and they had retreated from this place, it was impossible for the freaks to chase after them without killing anyone. These freaks would most likely destroy the entire Southern District and kill all the hundreds of people who were lucky enough to survive before coming after them.
In other words, the hundreds of survivors were already doomed. Taro's words were just a fluke. He wanted to give himself a reason to take action.
It was impossible for the two of them to deal with such a large group of Anomalies. They could only choose to retreat with their master and their acquaintances. They had no other choice.
There was no other choice. Musashi knew this as well. Under such circumstances, they had to make a choice.
"I understand. Let's go, then."
Musashi nodded silently. Then, without saying anything else, he walked toward the assembly point.
…
The southern district's gathering place was in a spacious manor.
By the time Musashi and Kotaro returned, Tachika Fujimaru had already woken up from her coma. Although her complexion was still pale, she had regained some of her mobility.
"Musashi, Kotaro … Kiyohime was taken away."
As soon as the two of them returned, Tachika Fujimaru took the initiative to greet them. With a gloomy expression, she told them another piece of unfortunate news.
After the female ninja disappeared from the shadow, she didn't leave immediately, but she was hiding in the dark. When Kotaro and Musashi left to clean up the monsters here, she quickly jumped out of the shadow and took Kiyohime away.
At first, she seemed to be planning to kill Tachika Fujimaru, but she reacted quickly and immediately summoned a Shadow Servant from Chaldea, so she had no choice but to retreat.
However, the Shadow Servant's combat power was limited, and the other party was even more mysterious as a ninja. In the end, she couldn't save Kiyohime and was taken away by the other party.
"We have to save her quickly …"
The orange-haired girl gasped softly, her chest was moving up and down with some difficulty, her face was pale. She had lost a lot of blood, and when she woke up, she had to use her magical power to support the Shadow Servant to fight.
But with the power of Musashi and Kotaro, she couldn't continue to wait here. She had to save Kiyohime before she had an accident.
"Sorry, my lord, now is not the time to say this."
However, Master Taro interrupted her and said with a guilty expression, "A large number of freaks are coming this way now. We're severely understaffed. It's very difficult for us to even protect ourselves. We don't have the strength to save people at all."
"Understaffed … Where is Yin Shun?"
Tachika Fujimaru seemed to remember something, and there was an ominous premonition in her heart, and she asked anxiously.
"Yin Shun … When we were in Tianshou Pavilion, in order to cover our retreat, he was buried in the Killing Night and became a heroic swordsman, and I defeated him not long ago." Musashi closed his eyes slightly and replied with a tone that didn't reveal any emotions.
"My lord, although you shouldn't say such things at this time, I still hope you can act rationally."
Kotaro said, "Our top priority now should be to rush to Sagami Country or Kusanagi, meet Ryuga, Esders, and Senko Muramasa, and gather combat power, so that we can save Kiyohime and solve this singularity."
"Don't worry, Kotaro, I won't be impulsive."
Tachika Fujimaru took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.
This level was far from enough to make her despair. The despair she experienced before was a hundred times deeper than this, but she still managed to overcome it, and this time was no exception. As long as she didn't give up, there would always be a chance to win.
"Let's go and meet up with Ryuga and Muramasa first." She loosened her clenched fists, and then planned to retreat in the direction of the city according to Kotaro's suggestion.
"Huh …"
But just when they were about to retreat, the wind stirred up by the wings roared from the sky.
"There is no need to meet up."
Immediately after, the voice of the indifferent youth that they were very familiar with entered their ears.
The pitch-black Wyvern quickly descended from the sky and landed in front of them amidst the sound of the wind. Then, a few familiar figures walked down from the Wyvern's back.
"I have a general understanding of the situation."
Ryuga's figure was imprinted in the eyes of the three people present, and the three of them were pleasantly surprised, especially Musashi and Tachika Fujimaru. The two of them almost immediately showed a look of relief as if they had found a pillar of support that they could rely on.
So far, Ryuga had shown extraordinary strength and wisdom that could be relied on. Almost every time they encountered a problem, he would solve it easily, and not once did he let them down.
"In short, let's talk about it later. Let's get rid of this group of small fries first."
Ryuga ignored the various complicated expressions of the three people. Instead, he turned around and looked at the distant sky, where the army of nearly ten thousand monsters was rushing toward them.
He lifted his feet and walked forward under the gaze of everyone behind him.
"Switch classes — [Rider]."
As he moved forward, he gave instructions to the [Anonymous Spiritual Base] in his heart. He switched his class, and the spiritual base template at the bottom left of his vision suddenly changed.
[Current Class Template]: Rider
There were no extra steps. With just a command, Ryuga's class changed from Assassin to Rider.
At the same time, he sensed that there was no obstruction in his spiritual base, and he could feel that the relic had become active.
"Bow down before the might of the Millennial Empire."
