So, where is the mastermind behind all this?
The moment this question arose in his mind, Leo already got the answer.
There was nothing he could do, he had changed the weather in Different Dimension and sprinkled thunderstorms all over Kuoh Town. But even so, there was still one place that seemed to be under special protection. When other places were riddled with holes by lightning, only that place remained safe.
It is a vast square located in the center of Kuoh Town.
There are supermarkets, hotels, restaurants, cafes, etc. built around the square, making it look like a commercial center.
"Uh!" "Uh!" "Uh!" "Uh!" "Uh!"----
Sounds of breaking through the sky appeared one after another from the horizon, causing Leo and others to fly in one by one and land in the square.
There is still no one here, not even those black monsters, only a thin layer of mist floating in the air, making everyone at Eligos Peerage wary.
"There!"
Magic Detection's outstanding ability Yukino Yukinoshita almost immediately locked the enemy's position and pointed in one direction.
There, in the floating mist, several figures slowly walked out and came to the front of everyone.
"Hey, long time no see, Mr. Eligos."
The young man in Hanfu was the first to step out of the mist, with a familiar fearless smile on his face. He looked at Leo and his group with eyes as bright as torches, greeting Leo like an old friend.
He was carrying a spear in his hand that was longer than his own height. The sacred wave on the spear made everyone present feel goosebumps coming out of their skin, making them feel horrified and instinctively afraid.
"Then, that gun is----?!"
Ravel Phenex couldn't hide his shaking voice and trembled.
"Danger!"
Ram, Rem, Asuna Yuuki, Utaha Kasumigaoka and Mahiru Shiina all stared at the gun, as if they had seen some savage beast.
""True Longinus"----"
Yukino Yukinoshita murmured, with a hint of fear in his voice.
Only Leo looked at True Longinus User across from him expressionlessly and said something.
"What is the reason for you Hero Faction and Old Satan Faction to hook up together this time?"
This is not a question, at most it is just a few questions.
After all, although Hero Faction and Old Satan Faction belong to the same organization, as two factions with different philosophies, the relationship between them is not much better.
Old Satan Faction is a group of Hardline Faction, even angels and Fallen Angel look down upon them. Their biggest ambition is to completely eradicate angels and Fallen Angel and let Devil dominate the entire world. How can they look down on a group of humans who use the relics left by God of the Bible?
Needless to say, Hero Faction, in order to prove that human beings can defeat the strong with the weak, they regard all aliens as challenges that must be overcome. The group of Old Satan Faction guys who attach great importance to the blood of Devil are bound to be the targets they want to defeat.
It can be said that it is a miracle that these two factions can be in the same organization.
If both sides hadn't planned to use the power of the leader of this organization to achieve their own goals, then these two factions would have been the first to start a fight, right?
It can also be heard from what Cao Cao said last time that they look down on the group of people Old Satan Faction.
As a result, what happened last time with Leif·Trix was forgotten. They only provided technical support and did not go into battle in person. This time they came in person.
"Don't be nervous, I'm waiting for Hero Faction and those Devil who have their eyes high above the head. They are still like fire and water, and they can't get together at all."
Cao Cao carried True Longinus, knocked on his shoulder, and laughed.
"This is a rare opportunity. They want to do something to the big shots at Three Factions, but we are more interested in you, so we decided to do it together, but we didn't plan to act together."
"I believe you have already discovered it, right? You Eligos Peerage are the only ones in this Different Dimension, and the rest are all gone."
"So, this battlefield only belongs to us, to Eligos Peerage and Hero Faction."
As Leo and others expected, the others were not here at all, perhaps in Human World, perhaps in another Different Dimension, separated from them.
Hero Faction and Old Satan Faction, they should have agreed in advance to resolve their respective objects of interest without interfering with each other.
"What is your purpose?" Yukino Yukinoshita asked, "Why are you targeting us?"
"The reason is very simple, Yukinoshita Family's Second Young Lady." Cao Cao showed a cheeky smile to Yukino Yukinoshita and said, ""Zenith Tempest", "Dimension Lost"," Absolute Demise", "Sword Birth", "World Creation"----these rare and powerful Sacred Gear should have been the valuable property of mankind, one of the few forces that weak humans can rely on to defeat alien races."
"If these powers belong to us Hero Faction, then our confidence will undoubtedly become stronger."
"It should be said that you, who have these Sacred Gear, should have been the talents we are longing for, but in the end you were seduced by Devil. Don't you think it's a pity?"
"So, we chose you as our opponents. Firstly, we want you to see the power of human beings and make you feel annoyed about your reincarnation as Devil. Secondly, most of the people here are also Sacred Gear User. It is natural to be interested in you who hold Rare Sacred Gear. If we eliminate you here, these Sacred Gear will be able to choose their host again, and they may come to us in the future and become our strength."
With that said, Cao Cao raised the True Longinus in his hand and pointed at Leo.
"Of course, we want the No. 1 and No. 2 Longinus to decide the winner here. This is one of the reasons why we are eyeing you. However, this is my personal wish and has nothing to do with the collective Hero Faction."
Cao Cao stared at Leo with burning fighting spirit in his eyes.
That fighting spirit is as strong as Vali Lucifer.
Obviously, Cao Cao, like Vali Lucifer, is essentially a fighting maniac.
Since Leo has been targeted by him, he will naturally not let it go easily.
"Didn't you have a good time playing last time?" Cao Cao said cheerfully, "This time we can let go and do what we want, Eligos is in charge."
Hearing this, Leo smiled.
The smile was emotionless.
"You will regret why you didn't fight to the end last time and kill me directly."
Leo said this.
"It's not too late."
Cao Cao tit for tat.
The two looked at each other, and a tense atmosphere instantly filled the air.
The next second, the two of them disappeared from the spot at the same time.
"Boom!!!"
Almost at the same time, a deafening roar appeared in the sky above the square.
The figures of Leo and Cao Cao flew up into the air without knowing when. One blasted out Grand Thunder, and the other released Torrent of Light. The two forces collided in mid-air, and a terrifying shock wave instantly erupted.
The shock wave was like an invisible collision of stars, constantly rioting, directly shaking the atmosphere and the earth, making the whole world seem to be shaking.
Under such circumstances, Leo and Cao Cao started a fierce battle in mid-air, causing roars and shock waves to burst out one after another.
"Minister!"
"Leo-sama!"
When all the Eligos Peerage girls saw this scene, they wanted to do something, but they were stopped.
"Ugh!"
A figure swept out of the thin mist at an astonishing speed, rushed straight towards the girls, and swung a dark blade towards one of them.
"Qiang!"
Amidst the sound of gold and iron, the pitch-black blade was blocked by a thick ice wall, causing ice chips and sparks to shoot out.
"It's you?!"
Yukino Yukinoshita stood behind the ice wall, looking at the person who suddenly attacked him, his expression changed.
"It's me."
The girl smiled sweetly, but her whole body exuded an astonishing murderous aura.
Blonde hair, blue eyes, exotic beauty, wearing a veil, wearing Nun Habit, holding a sharp blade as black as a fang in each hand----
Who else could it be besides Sharon Holly Greer?
"We meet again, Yukino Yukinoshita."
The smile on Sharon's face is very beautiful, and his voice is very sweet, but his eyes are colder than the ice wall in front of Yukino Yukinoshita, making people shudder.
"Uh-huh." Yukino Yukinoshita said in a blatant voice, "You guys are really haunted."
"This is also thanks to you." Sharon said with a smile, "You should have killed me directly last time, instead of just freezing me, knowing that I was a lingering woman. Wouldn't this have given me a chance to be rescued and regroup to seek revenge on you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sharon kicked the ice wall in front of him, and quickly cut out the sharp blade, slashing towards Yukino Yukinoshita.
That gorgeous pitch-black slash contained delicate skills visible to the naked eye, and it was fast and urgent. It gave Yukino Yukinoshita the feeling that Sharon seemed to be getting stronger again.
She was not the only one who could become stronger, Yukino Yukinoshita also grew up at an astonishing speed.
"It seems that you have joined Hero Faction."
Yukino Yukinoshita didn't see what he did. Her figure was blown away by a stream of fine snow, and she stepped back lightly, avoiding Sharon's dark slash while asking this question.
"Yes, I have joined Hero Faction a long time ago." Sharon squinted his eyes, looking at Yukino Yukinoshita who was becoming more and more comfortable in confronting him, and a moment of gloom flashed across his face. Haze then regained his smile and said, "After the Yukinoshita Family was seriously injured by your master, I was invited by Hero Faction to join this group of descendants of human heroes."
"The pair of Anti-Devil Exorcism Sword-Devil Slayer in my hand are the weapons Hero Faction prepared for me."
"Because I am not Sacred Gear User, but I carry Devil Factor in my body, they prepared these weapons for me."
"The reason why I appeared in that maze Different Dimension last time was because I took the initiative to go there."
Sharon bit his own finger and fed his blood to the pair of sharp black blades like fangs in his hand.
The jet black blade swallowed up the blood with an almost greedy momentum, and then emitted a terrible evil aura, making Sharon's whole body wrapped in evil aura.
Immediately afterwards, Sharon lowered his body and made a charging posture.
"This time, I will definitely destroy you."
Sharon said coldly and maliciously.
Before changing, Yukino Yukinoshita would definitely be shocked by such Sharon.
But now, she is no longer what she used to be.
"Do you think I'm still the same person as before?"
Yukino Yukinoshita's eyes turned into ice blue, and her whole body was filled with cold air. A three-meter-tall Alien Princess appeared behind her, causing her hair to flutter in the cold wind.
"This time, I will avenge my shame and defeat you in a real sense."
Now Yukino Yukinoshita is qualified to say such things.
Sharon said nothing, just stepped on the ground, and shot out like a bullet, rushing towards Yukino Yukinoshita.
At the same time, the other girls were also blocked by Hero Faction members who suddenly appeared in the mist.
"Qiang!"
Asuna Yuuki and a blond foreign elder sister were slashing at each other with their swords. The sound of the sword blades colliding with each other was clear and sweet, causing the sparks to scatter in groups, shaking the two of them away.
"Are you Excalibur User too?"
Asuna Yuuki looked at the sword in the opponent's hand in surprise.
It was a rapier that exuded Holy Aura.
There is no doubt that it is a holy sword.
"Haha." The blond foreign elder sister suddenly smiled playfully and said, "For us, don't we have as much of this kind of thing as we want?"
The blond foreign elder sister stretched out her other hand and actually created another holy sword in that hand.
Yes.
She can even create a holy sword.
"You----"
Asuna Yuuki was shocked.
"Let me introduce myself." The blond foreign elder sister licked her lips and said with a smile, "I am the person who inherited the artistic soul of Jeanne d'Arc, the saint who saved the country, and I am also the holder of "Sword Birth" like you."
Although the Sacred Gear "Sword Birth" is rare and powerful, it is not Longinus after all, so it is not unique.
Although it is rare for two "Sword Birth" holders to appear in the same era, we encountered one here today.
"Just call me Jeanne d'Arc, little sister." Jeanne d'Arc said with a smile, "We are also users of "Sword Birth", can you let me, Lan, have a good exchange of feelings?"
Asuna Yuuki did not speak, but became serious and his eyes became sharp.
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang----!"
On the other side, a grand explosion was going on in the square, causing explosion sounds and blasts of wind to appear at the same time, sweeping across the entire square.
The source of the explosion was an extremely tall and burly man.
He was waving his fist crazily towards Xia Yiqiu Utaha. Wherever his fist passed, whether it touched surrounding obstacles or a suddenly unfolded barrier, it would cause an explosion.
"Where did this bomb man come from?"
Xia Yiqiu Utaha opened her barrier to resist the man's fist and complained loudly.
"Who is Bomb Man?"
The man spoke in a rough voice.
"I am the successor of Heracles's soul, and even the user of Sacred Gear and "Dimension Lost", please remember it!"
