Chapter 129

The Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu quickly bypassed Sigurd and Zhang Jiao, striking directly at Feng Xi's heart with his blade.

However, the moment his blade touched Feng Xi's body, Feng Xi's entire body suddenly erupted with golden light.

Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu only felt as if he had stabbed into a solid piece of steel, unable to advance even an inch.

This was a contingency plan Zhang Jiao had specifically left on Feng Xi before they set out tonight.

It was the same talisman that had previously turned the Red Hare into a Golden Red Hare.

However, this talisman was trigger-based and would only activate when Feng Xi's physical body was attacked.

It instantly shifted Feng Xi into the Huang Jin Warrior mode.

He had thought it wouldn't be needed, but he hadn't expected it to have such miraculous effects.

Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu was somewhat stunned; his "Mystic-Shattering" should logically destroy any magic circuits or magic crests, so why was it ineffective against Feng Xi?

He did not know that Zhang Jiao had placed two talismans on Feng Xi.

One was on his chest, and the other was on his back.

Although his strike had destroyed the talisman on Feng Xi's chest, the one on his back remained completely intact.

But Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu had no time to ponder so much, immediately changing his move to strike directly at Feng Xi's eyes.

The ruthlessness of a killer was displayed to the fullest.

At the same time, the effect of Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu's Noble Phantasm had also run out.

"Damn it!"

Seeing Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu suddenly appear in front of him, Feng Xi was also startled.

But he reacted quickly, immediately bowing and retreating half a step, while tilting his head back, causing Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu's blade to veer toward his own nostrils.

Immediately, he saw his right elbow thrust upward to block Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu, while his left hand swiftly pierced upward, directly forcing Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu back and tearing the bandage on his face.

This was the 29th form of Taijiquan, "Retreat and Pierce Palm."

Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu had not expected Feng Xi to have such skills, but he did not hesitate, immediately pulling out his modified gun, the "Thompson Arms Contender."

Seeing this, Feng Xi immediately retreated instead of advancing, quickly pushing the muzzle of the gun aside, and then landed a heavy punch on Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu's chest, sending him flying.

Taijiquan 9th form, "Advance, Parry, and Punch."

Sigurd and Zhang Jiao also hurriedly stepped forward to surround Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu.

Feng Xi felt a lingering fear.

If he had been any slower just now, he might have ended up like Director Kayneth in the original work.

That's right, Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu's modified gun was loaded with Origin Bullets.

Emiya Kiritsugu had this, and naturally, Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu had it too.

Regarding Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu's Origin Bullets, Feng Xi could not guarantee whether his Huang Jin Warrior mode could defend against them.

For the sake of caution, Feng Xi hurriedly activated his Class Card and took out the God of War's Five Weapons to transform them into arm guards.

"..."

Seeing this situation, Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu knew that this assassination attempt had failed.

He pulled out his Calico and immediately fired a burst, temporarily forcing Sigurd and Zhang Jiao back, then threw a smoke bomb.

After the smoke cleared, Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu had lost his trail.

Someone with A+ rank Presence Concealment is truly troublesome; once they hide, they are impossible to find.

However, Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu did not know that his movements were completely visible to Feng Xi.

Once "True Name Discernment" is activated, no matter how strong your Presence Concealment is, as long as you are within the field of vision, you can be found.

But Feng Xi did not let Sigurd and the others pursue him.

Because Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu had already run far away.

With A+ rank Agility, it was impossible to catch up now, not to mention they had just fought a great battle against Gilgamesh and were in a period of exhaustion.

Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu could be considered to have given Feng Xi a reminder: never let your guard down.

Otherwise, just like this time, he would have almost fallen.

For safety's sake, Feng Xi took out the Super Spicy Mapo Tofu and Gof's special dish, shared them with Sigurd and the others, and recovered a portion of their stamina and magic.

"Hmm, not bad."

Just then, a figure appeared, startling Feng Xi and the others.

But after seeing who it was, they breathed a sigh of relief.

The person who arrived was none other than the Qin Qin Shi Huang.

【Name: Ying Zheng; Class: Ruler; Gender: Male; Alignment: Neutral Good.】

【Strength: B; Endurance: C; Agility: A; Magic: B; Luck: A+; Noble Phantasm: EX.】

【Class Skills: Servant Positioning A, True Name Discernment A, God's Resolution A+.】

【Personal Skills: Golden Rule A+, Burning Books B, Emperor's Privilege EX.】

【Noble Phantasms: Tai'e Sword (A+ rank Anti-Army Noble Phantasm, effective range 1-100 meters, maximum capture 100 people); Epang Palace (EX rank Barrier Noble Phantasm, effective range 0-10,000 meters, maximum capture 1 million people); The Great Wall Never Falls (EX rank Anti-Army Noble Phantasm, effective range 1-1000 meters).】

(PS: The Qin Qin Shi Huang can adapt to multiple classes such as Saber, Rider, Caster, Archer, etc., and each class's abilities and Noble Phantasms are different.)

Looking at the Qin Qin Shi Huang's data, Feng Xi, who had wanted to ask a question, was stunned.

Good heavens, two EX Noble Phantasms and EX-rank Emperor's Privilege; he truly lives up to the name of Qin Qin Shi Huang.

"As a descendant of My people, you have done well."

The Qin Qin Shi Huang smiled faintly: "You used your own strategy to defeat that rude king; very good."

"However, you made a mistake at the end; because you won, you let your guard down and ignored other opponents."

The Qin Qin Shi Huang had arrived long ago; he had seen everything that happened before.

Feng Xi laughed dryly: "Um, how did you end up here?"

Why did he feel like he was being lectured by a teacher?

"I just became a little interested to see what you all could accomplish."

The Qin Qin Shi Huang threw a card to Feng Xi and said: "Take this as a gift for your arrival."

Magic Craft - "Delicious?".

The image was Nezha wearing a maid outfit.

The effect was that it could make food taste more delicious.

What use is this thing?

Feng Xi looked at the item in his hand, completely bewildered.

"This is something I opened from that bronze treasure chest earlier."

The Qin Qin Shi Huang said indifferently: "I have no use for this, and since I see you quite enjoy eating, I'll give it to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward..."

Feng Xi was weeping in his heart.

Since when did he enjoy eating? He was just eating those things to restore his HP and MP.

He admitted that he did indeed like good food, but isn't every Chinese person like that now?

"Alright, I'm leaving."

The Qin Qin Shi Huang turned into spirit form and disappeared.

He didn't even say an extra word; he really upholds fairness.

The three of them smiled helplessly and then hurriedly returned home to prevent any further changes.

"What? You were ambushed!"

Ishtar was shocked upon hearing this news.

After the battle ended earlier, she had taken the Boat of Heaven and returned first.

"Are you alright then?"

Rin Tohsaka asked, and Sakura also held Feng Xi's hand with some concern.

Why were they here?

Because she was worried that someone would target Aoi Tohsaka and Sakura, Rin Tohsaka had specifically brought them to stay the night at Feng Xi's place.

After all, after so many days, she was no longer a naive novice; she knew how unscrupulous opponents could be to win.

This was a veiled reference to Emiya Kiritsugu.

Feng Xi: "Now that Gilgamesh has been dealt with, what do you plan to do next?"

"Don't you worry."

Ishtar patted her chest and said: "Since I promised to help you obtain the Holy Grail, I will not go back on my word."
