"Perfect timing, the Servant has also been summoned. We can set off soon..."
"Swishhh!!!" Before Gudako could finish saying the word 'ready,' a streak of blue flashed by between Gudako and Mashu.
Immediately, a fierce gust of wind accompanied by dust and gravel swept towards Gudako and the others, catching them completely off guard. Countless debris, dust, and leaves were lifted into the air, creating a spectacular "rainfall."
"What was that thing that just zoomed past?!" Gudako shouted, covering her face with her hands to shield herself from the sandstorm.
Mashu mirrored Gudako's actions, unable to identify what had flown by, struggling to keep her footing in the raging wind. "I don't know, Master. I couldn't see clearly; it was too fast!"
In the midst of the chaos, Archer Arash, with his keen eyes as an archer, managed to catch a glimpse of the creature that dashed out of the summoning circle. However, even though he saw it clearly, he wore a perplexed expression. He couldn't comprehend how a cat could possess such terrifying speed; it was beyond anything he had ever heard of.
"That was a... cat?" Arash, as an Archer, was the only one who identified what had passed through the summoning circle. But even after seeing it, he remained puzzled, unable to fathom why a cat could possess such incredible speed. It was a concept he had never encountered before.
"Aaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!"
Meanwhile, Tom had reached the mountaintop and began screaming at the top of his lungs.
"What is that sound...? Is it Stuca?" Gudako turned her head towards the direction of the mountaintop upon hearing the voice.
Mashu, who had initially been perplexed about the intruder, immediately recognized the source of the sound upon hearing it. And now, it didn't seem strange to her at all. If it was that Schrödinger's Cat, such speed would make perfect sense. "I remember this voice. It's that Servant!"
The massive scream lasted for a full three seconds before coming to a halt.
After releasing all of his frustration through the agonizing scream, Tom suddenly felt no pain in his foot. He casually pulled out the arrow and tossed it aside, then clapped his hands as if there had been no incident at all. It was as if nothing had happened.
Regardless of the injury, as long as Tom believed it should hurt, he needed a scream to alleviate the pain.
Afterward, Tom swung his left arm in a wide circle to the left rear, while his right arm swung in a similar motion to the left side. After taking a few steps back to gather strength, he charged back towards the spot where he had come from in a ferocious manner.
Along the way, Tom once again passed through the summoning circle set up by Gudako and the others. He effortlessly knocked Mashu's shield out of the way, causing the newly established summoning circle to be destroyed in the process. It didn't even last a few minutes!
As the intense sand and dust hit her face again, Gudako's expression turned dark. The physically uplifted soil had stained her face black. "Again?!"
"Is that also a Servant? This is the first time I've seen such a... violent Servant," Arash pondered, observing Tom's departing figure and giving his initial impression of him.
"Just now, Kiritsugu-san sent a message saying that we've been discovered, and it seems Schrödinger's Cat wasted no time in coming to us."
"This is provocation, definitely provocation!" Gudako said firmly, jumping onto Mashu's back and pointing her index finger in the direction Tom had left. "No, this is more than just a simple provocation. We need to hit back with full force!"
After catching Gudako, Mashu hesitated and asked, "Senpai... Are we going to pursue him?"
She had gained a preliminary understanding of Tom's combat abilities through the footage. Even Alexander couldn't last more than a few rounds against him, and she doubted she would fare much better. But then, she realized that Fujimaru Ritsuka had already summoned the great hero, Arash, who should undoubtedly surpass Tom in strength. At the very least, they should be evenly matched. With her own combat capabilities added to the equation, victory was possible!
With that in mind, Mashu no longer hesitated.
Upon hearing Mashu's words, Gudako replied with a definite answer, "Yes, in this situation, we have to go all out!"
"Understood, Master. Servant Mashu Kyrielight is ready for action!"
With that said, Mashu extended her left hand backward to support Gudako's buttocks, preventing her from falling off, while her right hand picked up the shield that Tom had knocked away. Then, together with Arash, she chased after Tom in the direction he had gone.
As they pursued Tom, for some reason, Arash constantly felt like the word "danger" was looming over his head.
Moreover, this feeling of danger didn't just come from Tom; it directly emanated from Gudako, the master who had just summoned him. Arash could only consider the unsettling premonition as his own illusion and remain focused on tracking Tom.
On the other side, Tom was clearly much more efficient than them.
In less than two seconds, Tom had once again charged back to the same spot he came from on the mountaintop. His speed was terrifying!
From the moment Tom landed on the ground, being shot by Jerry's arrow, running to the mountaintop to release, and now running back, all these actions combined took less than ten seconds!
"Ah, Tom, you're finally back!"
After returning to Bai Song's side, Tom nodded towards Bai Song and immediately glared fiercely at Jerry. His eyes seemed to emit flames, and if possible, he would have loved to throw a thunderbolt at Jerry right now.
Seeing Tom's enraged expression, Jerry awkwardly smiled with a shy face and hands behind his back. If he were to say that it wasn't intentional, Tom would definitely not believe him. In this situation, the best strategy was to feign innocence.
Although... the tactic of pretending to be innocent had never worked in Jerry's memory when facing Tom in battle.
Realizing that Tom wasn't buying it, Jerry decisively climbed onto Bai Song's shoulder. After all, Tom wouldn't dare to attack Bai Song directly, right? At least, that's what Jerry thought.
"Alright, it's time to continue our journey," Bai Song said, preparing to bend down and pick up Tom from the ground. He had just destroyed the surveillance drone monitoring him, so why not take advantage of the opportunity?
However, at that moment, Jerry seemed to have noticed something again. He quickly kicked Bai Song's face and then pointed towards the direction Tom had returned from. He handed Bai Song a pair of binoculars.
After the incident, Bai Song didn't hesitate for a moment. He directly took the binoculars handed by Jerry and looked in the direction he was pointing. He saw two figures rushing towards them at super-fast speed.
In that instant, Bai Song immediately realized that these two individuals must be Servants. There was no doubt that these two clearly Servant-like individuals were not here for a friendly chat. Their hurried approach indicated that they were most likely here for a fight!
Moreover, these two Servants came from the same direction Tom had just passed. They must have thought their location had been discovered by Tom, prompting them to come over for a confrontation.
"Tom, did you lead the enemy here?!"
"Perfect timing, the Servant has also been summoned. We can set off soon..."
"Swishhh!!!" Before Gudako could finish saying the word 'ready,' a streak of blue flashed by between Gudako and Mashu.
