"Understood. ”

Hearing Shirou's order, Karna responded with his usual calmness and rushed to the gap where Shirou was as fast as he could.

At the moment when his body was transformed from a spirit child to a physical entity, the great hero who was praised by the Mahabharata took the initiative to put down his golden spear for the first time. However, the momentum on his body did not decrease but increased, and together with Shirou standing beside him, he felt an extraordinary aura, which was more vast than the sun, and the power of the gods, which was the origin of ancient Indian civilization.

"Brahmastra, O Brahmastra!"

This is a treasure given to Karna by the brahmin with the axe Parashurama. The prototype is a bow that tracks enemies by chanting the name of Brahma and hits them absolutely, but cannot be used against opponents who are superior to them due to curses.

Changing to a class other than Archer will manifest as a different flying item, as Karna suffered countless curses during his lifetime, and the curses he carried in different classes were also different. When the vehicle is Rider, the vehicle loses mobility at critical moments. When you are an Archer, forget about the archer at a critical moment. When class Lancer is cast, the curse is to forget how to use Brahmastra, the mortal blade, at a critical moment.

Of course, this is not a critical moment, and Karna has not forgotten the use of the Noble Phantasm, which is the most special liberation method of all the professions, and does not rely on the golden spear "Immortal Blade" as the carrier of Brahma's magic weapon, but with Karna's eyes that perceive the appearance to the essence.

I saw Karna's eyes wide open, and his green and silver eyes bloomed with unprecedented brilliance.

In the next second, the light converged into a single point, radiating from the oval-shaped pupil.

That's right, you read that right.

Excluding all the imposing depictions and sensory experiences, Lancer's use of the national treasure Brahmastra is to shoot lasers with his eyes.

The diameter of a normal person is 2.5-4mm, and even if the pupils are dilated due to strong light, it is only about 8mm, and the laser shot by Karna will not exceed 1cm at most, including the surrounding eyeballs.

Don't underestimate the power of a laser just because it's only the thickness of a little finger – it's not a national treasure.

The earliest treasures were divided into only four types according to the objects of action, namely to people, to cities, to armies, and to boundaries. However, this rough division could not clearly define the strange treasures of the Heroic Spirit, which led to a series of subsequent additional types, such as to the mountain, to the people, to the feast, to the solemnity and so on.

In the original four categories, the great power of the city was emphasized, and the large scope of the army was emphasized. If a Noble Phantasm has both the range of the military level and the power of the city level, how should it be divided?

The normal proposal is - Army vs. City or Army + City.

But this positioning seems to be very lo, and it can't highlight the power of the treasure, so there is a separate classification of "national treasures" that overrides the city and the army.

Although there are a lot of spitting and mouthing ingredients above, the description of "national treasures" is absolutely true.

So when the laser hits the ground, you can imagine what happens.

Intuitively, the entire city of Mirenia was surrounded by a curtain of flames rising into the sky.

According to Shirou's instructions, the terrifying rays emitted by Karna swept around the entire perimeter of the castle, and the Brahma power contained in it was released the moment it touched the earth, like lava bursting and a volcano erupting.

All the Thousand Realms Tree Lords who were hiding between the most heavily protected kings changed their faces almost at the same time, and the destructive power of the light released from the garden was really terrifying, just sweeping outside the city was this kind of power, if you directly swept the inside of the city-

Thinking of this, Danik did not hesitate to give the order:

"It's not safe here. Fiore, you take the others to that place to take refuge—"

"But, isn't that the highest-level forbidden zone?"

Fiore knew what Darnick was talking about, but because she knew it, she wondered. As the Master who carries the hope of the revival of the Thousand Worlds Tree Clan, everyone present has extremely high privileges and can freely enter and leave the castle anywhere except the private area, with one exception - the underground altar.

No one was allowed to enter it except for Darnik, and even Fiore, who was the next patriarch, was only fortunate enough to be brought in by Darnik before the Servant Summoning Ceremony, and was able to witness the true face of the Great Holy Grail.

In response to Fiore's doubts, Danick just said:

"There's the Great Chalice in the forbidden area, and without the Great Grail, it's just an ordinary altar - hurry up, the enemy attack will come at any time. ”

"Uncle, what about you——?"

Darnik was talking about letting Fiore take people to the Forbidden Land, and he obviously didn't plan to go there.

"—I'm going outside. Fiore, the rest of the command is up to you, and you all have to follow her instructions. ”

With that, he jumped straight out of the window and jumped out of the window. Landing from a high place was not too difficult for the magician, as if he were climbing a staircase, he walked up in the air.

- It's time to prepare for the worst.

His gaze wandered back and forth between the Great Grail, the Aerial Garden, and the Spell in his hand.

As the only vested interest in the Third Holy Grail War, a monster who has studied the Great Grail for more than 60 years, Darnik knows the nature of the Holy Grail War well.

The moment the Great Holy Grail appeared in front of everyone's eyes and was frozen, he realized that the chaotic battle between the undivided factions would soon begin.

Although he is the patriarch of the Thousand Worlds Tree Clan, he has accumulated great power, but this is a battle for the Holy Grail that can grant any wish. Even the most obedient Fiore and Cowles may not follow his orders, not to mention the gathering of a group of powerful servants and first-class combat experts sent by the Magic Association.

Even if the Grand Duke in the local area is stronger than all the Servants, and his own strength is stronger than other magicians, but under the premise that the thirteen Servants are still alive, this little advantage is nothing at all. And because of Vlad III's strength, it is difficult to even hide and wait for an opportunity, and maybe it will become the target of public criticism.

It's not impossible to break the game, but no matter what action is taken, the risk is very high.

"—I can't help it. ”

A few minutes ago, it was all the way around, but how can it suddenly become a dilemma?

But Darnik didn't feel agitated or frustrated, and he had encountered similar situations many times in the last hundred years, and it was not without it.

Especially the Third Holy Grail War sixty years ago, the intensity of that war almost made me feel that it was a great miracle to be alive now.

Discovering the path to the Great Holy Grail from the collapsed cavern was an unexpected blessing. With rhetoric, NAZI Germany was encircled, and with the president's direct order, he sent an army that was hard to believe that it was the Allies, and forcibly snatched back the Great Holy Grail.

Then, on their way to Germany, they were deliberately sent through the place of Tullyfas, and then killed all the magicians and soldiers who had fought side by side. Since then, it's been a time to focus on research and politics. In the face of the Guild, Danick always pretends to be that the Thousand World Tree Clan has always been willing to serve as a shelter for fallen magicians.

Darnik slowly deteriorates in order to adapt the Great Chalice to Tullyface. In the process, the Great Chalice became not only able to summon pure Heroic Spirits, but also gained the ability to summon "characters who only possess the side of Heroic Spirits", which is an unexpected by-product.

Either way, only time is sufficient. Ten years, twenty years, thirty years, forty years, fifty years, sixty years—

What is the basis of this attachment?

Is it the driving force behind all magicians who reach the roots?

Of course, this is a big factor. Since I was born as a magician, it is a matter of course to aim for this. But can he really do this just for the sake of such a "pure" desire?

The bitter memories of eighty years ago have come back to mind.

At that time, he made his gorgeous debut as a cutting-edge magician and ushered in a family business. It was a good relationship. For Darnik, this will lay the foundation for his family to be sublimated into the blood of the nobility.

However, at this time, this family business was put on hold. The bloodline of the Thousand Worlds Tree Clan is cloudy, and I am afraid that it will not be able to sustain itself until five generations later, and it will only be able to go down the road in the future - this is the advice of a certain magician.

- It's ridiculous. If there is still time to maintain the five generations, it should be no problem to take appropriate countermeasures to remedy it.

Darnick seems to be the only one who thinks this way. For those who are not willing to take risks, he immediately becomes a heretic who must be excluded immediately.

Whether it was the brother-in-law who once patted himself on the shoulder with a smile and told him about his friendship, or the woman who was about to become a partner who shyly confessed his love to him, they all left him at the same time.

- That's okay, sometimes in the long life, this kind of thing happens.

But at this moment, his family's dream of becoming a nobleman was completely cut off. Even if the problem of decline after five generations is overcome, the label that was once attached will never be able to be torn off.

Of course, it doesn't matter if it's just me, but now even the future of the followers has been taken away by that magician. At this moment, Danick decided that it was a dream that would never be realized to reach the root by the usual means - that is, to study day and night as a magician, to work hard in the guild to rise to the status and become a nobleman.

He must come up with a way to avoid the decline of the clan, and he must also find a way to reach the roots.

While it wasn't impossible to break away from the Magic Society and go into hiding, Darnick refused to do so.

Of course, it was quite humiliating to stay in the association. However, Darnick never forgot this humiliation for a single second, and engraved it in his heart - as a motivation to work hard.

During this time, he stumbled upon information about the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City. He enlisted NAZI Germany, who had a strong interest in occultism, and entered the war as a lord with the support of the army.

The situation became very chaotic due to Einzbergeren's foul tactics that went against the norm – and it had to be said to be an unexpected stroke of luck.

The Third Holy Grail War came to an end in chaos, and the exhausted Einzberen, Tosaka, and Machiri had no way to stop Danik and NAZI Germany.

Today, Darnick has no resentment towards the people who have abandoned him. Considering the current situation, he even wanted to thank the other party in turn. However, their clan has long since perished, and they have not left a name in history.

Danik didn't attack them directly, but just cornered them through political means. It is just to induce them to invest their funds in meaningless experiments, to let their secret techniques leak out, and to let the children who inherited the inscription die accidentally and unfortunately in the accident of the experiment.

For them who eventually fell into favor of Danik and wanted to sell themselves, Danick did not put them into the Thousand Worlds Tree, but directly exiled them. Since then, Danick has only confirmed that they had gone to Japan, the Far East where the Holy Grail War was staged, and has not been heard from since. I've probably been living a life of lamenting and sorrow all day long.

Your own life is a life that keeps trampling others down. Now, the object he wants to step on is the Magic Association and the magicians of his own clan.

Of course, he didn't hesitate in the slightest - whether it was to trample down a group of people or to give his life.

If you are familiar with his usual appearance, you must shudder to see Darnick's expression now. That face looked extremely cold, as if it was frozen as frost, and there was no trace of emotion at all.

At times like these, he always thinks of something extremely vicious. As long as necessary, he will not hesitate to do any evil deeds. That's why he went out on purpose. After all, there is no need to make others superfluous and wary.

So, what should I do? ”

While Darnik was hiding in the corner and thinking, a new change took place in the castle's atrium.

PS: Axe-wielding Rama, like Ramara's uncle Luo Aotian, is the incarnation of Vishnu, one of the top three gods in Hindu mythology.

PS2: Although Karna is a versatile servant who is compatible with any type of master, the curse of dropping the chain at this critical moment should be teamed up with a certain tsundere double ponytail.

PS3: Why does the traitor always think that the part of his mouth is actually the real idea of mushrooms?
