Chapter 1372: Chapter 1372 – Secrets
The arrow that Zhang Heng had just shot was no ordinary arrow. It was the [ arrow of Paris ] that was used to look for weaknesses.
However, this time, the trajectory of the [ arrow of Paris ] in the air did not change at all. It pierced straight into the throat of one of the twins.
The scene looked a little bloody, but in terms of effect, it was no different from his previous attack. Both were neutralized by the miraculous regeneration ability of the twins, the twins who had been shot by the arrow were now able to open their mouths to speak again, and their spirits were not much different from before. This meant that the plague effect on the [ plague bone bow ] had not taken effect either.
He weighed the arrow in his hand and asked curiously, “As the rumors say, you are indeed proficient in all kinds of combat techniques. Other than archery, marksmanship, and Sabersmanship, do you have any other trump cards?”
“I do have hidden cards, but unfortunately, I’m afraid you won’t be able to see them,”Zhang Heng replied. Although the arrow didn’t succeed, there was no disappointment on Zhang Heng’s face, he lowered his head to look at the starfish in his hand again.
From the start of the battle until now, about two minutes had passed. In other words, there was only one minute left for him to break out of the encirclement. From the expressions on the twins’faces, it could be seen that.., they were gradually relaxing.
Zhang Heng had already tried three different methods of attack, but none of them had yielded any results. From the looks of it, there was really nothing he could do to them. As long as they could hold out for another minute, their mission to pin them down would be complete.
Therefore, when the twins saw Zhang Heng put away his [ hidden scabbard ] and took out two knives from his waist, their eyes did not show much wariness.

One of them even advised, “As long as Mr. Simon doesn’t make a move, we will do our best to ensure your safety.”
“You should worry about yourself first,”Zhang Heng interrupted the twins and said lightly.
After saying that, he stabbed the knife in his hand. This time, his target was the twin on his left hand. This time, the twin also moved his body and hurriedly dodged to the back. However, compared to Zhang Heng’s knife.., his movement was a little slow. In the end, he could not completely dodge the knife and was stabbed in the lower abdomen.
Before he could cry out in pain, Zhang Heng had already pulled out the knife and used his fastest speed to stab the chest of the other twin. The twin subconsciously raised his hand to protect his chest, however, his expression suddenly changed.
It was not until Zhang Heng took half a step back that he realized that a small knife had appeared in his lower abdomen. The position of the knife was actually the same as his twin brother’s.
However, this time, the wounds of the two did not heal as quickly as before. Therefore, Zhang Heng knew that he had guessed correctly.
“How is this possible? !”One of the twins knelt on one knee and clutched his lower abdomen. With a shocked expression, he said, “How did you discover our secret in such a short time?”
At that moment, his face was no longer as relaxed as it had been when the mission was almost completed. There was only pain and confusion.
“Your quick-healing wounds are indeed quite deceiving. At first, I was almost fooled by you,”Zhang Heng said, “But after I tried it, I realized that your wounds weren’t healing at all. It was more like a mechanism to replicate each other.”
Zhang Heng didn’t explain to them the functions of [ hidden scabbard ] , [ pestilence bone bow ] , and [ Parris’s arrow ] , but he pointed at their arms, “Actually, when I first met you, I felt that something was wrong. There are many identical twins in this world, but it’s rare to see twins like you. “Fortunately, there is something different about the two of you. It’s your right arm. There is a mole on the inner side of your right arm, but your brother or brother doesn’t have it. In the end, when I cut off your arm, the mole on the inner side of your newly grown arm disappeared. It was then that I gradually came to the same conclusion.

“Your rapid healing is actually a kind of skill that duplicates each other. Your twin brothers are copies of each other. I don’t know how you do it, but once someone is injured, the injured part can be replicated according to the other person’s intact body. This explains why the two of you are becoming more and more alike.”
Zhang Heng still hadn’t said a word. This was also the reason why [ hidden scabbard ] , [ plague bone bow ] , and [ Parris Arrow ] didn’t take effect.
“Can you even notice such… small details?”The other twin was also stunned.
However, Zhang Heng didn’t answer his question because the minute was almost up. He told the two of them, “Don’t move.” “Cover your stomachs and stay here quietly. When your people arrive, ask them to send you to the hospital immediately.”
After saying that, Zhang Heng picked up the [ Arrow of Paris ] that he had just shot out and disappeared from their sight with the Sr-25 in his arms.
When the man wearing sunglasses and his men arrived, they saw the twin brothers leaning against a tree trunk with an awkward expression on their faces.
However, this time, no one opened their mouths to mock them. Other than the fact that they were still alive, everyone had to give them some face. Most importantly, unlike the Gnomes, the ghost twins were quite famous among the players, their strength had also been tested.
Even they were unable to hold Zhang Heng back for even a few minutes. This cast a shadow over the hearts of the players once again.
However, the man in sunglasses did not say anything. He only ordered his men to help the twin brothers into the car. After a simple treatment, he was taken to the county hospital.
After sending the two away, the players initially thought that the man in sunglasses would continue to recruit people who could hold Zhang Heng back. However, they did not expect the man in sunglasses to take the blame this time, “It’s my fault. Knowing that Simon is the number one player, we still sent people to his side. This allowed him to succeed time and time again. From now on, no one should act alone.”
“Then how are we going to surround him?”Someone frowned. “If there really is guerrilla warfare in the forest, even if we manage to kill him in the end, the casualties will not be small.”
“Don’t worry about that. The engineering team has already made preparations. It should be about time now,”the man in sunglasses said. “Soon, he will have nowhere to run.”
As if to answer his words, the sound of a propeller turning rang in everyone’s ears. Someone lifted his head when he heard the sound and saw a black shadow coming from the direction of the convoy.
— drones. There were many of them. It was estimated that there were more than a hundred of them.

Fate Overcharge (Stalled)
Rin Tohsaka, the young genious magus who, using the power of the holy grail, built an empire spanning the whole world, decides to use the power of the second sorcery to expand her empire to other realms and... Ehm, sorry, wrong story. Err, alright, starting again... Rin Tohsaka is the current head of the Tohsaka family and a likely master in the upcoming fifth grail war. She doesn't have a wish she wants granted, but she will fight to win. For if there is a battle to be fought, could a Tohsaka settle for any less than a complete victory? This is a fan fiction for the Fate/StayNight and an alternative rendition of the fifth grail war that introduces new characters, and shows never before seen sides of the old ones. Since this is a fan fiction, knowledge of the original works is needed to understand it. Watching stay/night or zero should be sufficient, but reading both works along with Hollow Ataraxia is recommended for not missing any details. (I won't assume the readers have read Hollow A.) - Warning: Tagged Mature(+15) mainly for violence and strong language. Nothing graphic, and still a lot milder than the original Visual Novel - Note1: I am trying to improve so constructive critisizm and random comments are welcome. Note2: Be warned! Update rate will likely be slow. How slow, I can't say. Note3: I don't consider any side works in the franchise as cannon. So if, for some reason, Nero is summoned, do not riot when he turns out to be a burly, hairy caster. (That won't happen!)
