Chapter 262: The Swarm

Inside the dark and damp dungeon, it is like entering another strange and terrifying world, the walls of the dungeon built in an unknown era are covered with dark moss and traces of corrosion by unknown things, there are no lights here, there is no such thing as torches to provide warmth and brightness, but the air here is filled with a strange stench and warmth.

"Da Da Da Da~!"

The footsteps of the dark passage are especially loud in the silence, but when the footsteps stop, you will hear a trace of insects chirping and the "rustling" sound of many cockroaches moving, as if far away, as if very close, like the sound of the waves, overlapping and endless, just hearing the sound makes people's scalp tingle, and they shudder in the silent silence.

The young man with the hood came to the dungeon and looked at the scene in disbelief, in the center of the huge dungeon, countless ugly insects similar to cockroaches were moving, overlapping, crawling, densely packed and innumerable, as if all the water in the swimming pool had been replaced by insects, and the look made him feel horror and disgust from the bottom of his heart. However, the most angry and desperate part of the young man was the petite little girl lying in the center of the swarm, who recognized her appearance, the little face that should have had an innocent smile and was now like a broken puppet.

Is she dead?

No.

Maybe she was dead, she couldn't feel the breath of a living creature in her, her eyes were empty, and she didn't react to letting these ugly and disgusting reptiles wreak havoc in her body, she was just used to it.

"Sakura!" The young man suppressed his anger and shouted the little girl's name, wanting to rush in to save the little girl but could not do anything, but it was already an incredible courage for him to face the swarm head-on, and his understanding of magic also knew that rushing down would only make things worse.

At this moment, another old man with a short stature and a slender-faced face stepped out of the shadows, his right hand like a withered branch and a cane, and his grim and strange look made him look like an old man who came out of a horror movie. He sneered at his son with a wicked sneer: "She cried very miserably in the first three days, and she couldn't even make a voice on the fourth day. Today, I also put her in the insect library to see how long she can last.,As a result, she was played with by insects for most of the day and still had a trace of breath.,This good material of the Tosaka family is really lovely.。 Feel so? Actually, you can continue to live an ordinary life, I have no interest in this Holy Grail War, my goal is the fifth Holy Grail War in sixty years, when Sakura, who has been transformed into a false Holy Grail, will participate. ”

"Sakura... Why..."

The young man's eyes wavered, his fists clenched and whitened because of the excessive force, if he really had the strength, he would turn around and kill the old man who should have entered the coffin without hesitation!

The old man on crutches felt the surging anger in the young man's heart, and smiled, his rotten body and eyes revealed the sarcasm of the members who were related to him and the pleasure of dominating the fate of others: "Hehe, then what can you do? A little girl who has been toyed with by insects from head to toe and is about to collapse, so if you want to save her, I don't want to think about it. ”

"Very well, I've made up my mind." The hooded young man's eyes turned cold, looking at the little girl who was devoured by the swarm, and the anger in his heart rolled just by looking directly at this face. He knew the character of the old man behind him, he knew the rotten magic family, and he himself was a member of this magic family, and the anger in his heart was not only aimed at the old man behind him, but also at the man who sent the little girl to this family - Tosaka Shichen!

What the hell is that man sending his daughter to hell for, in order to conclude a cooperation with the Kiriri family to fight for that legendary Holy Grail!? What qualifications does such a person have to take away the happiness that should belong to him! He, damn it!

Unforgivable!

"But until you produce results, I'll continue to educate Sakura, because my eyes are on the Fifth Holy Grail War in sixty years."

Sixty years? How long does this monster want to live?

The hooded young man's eyes became more and more disgusted, but he also knew that he was just an ordinary person, and it was impossible for him to resist the old man as a magician, and he was also afraid of the old man. It seems that the old man who stepped into the coffin with half a foot is just his nominal father, and in terms of real blood relationship, the old man is his great-great-great-great-grandfather and above, and his soul has rotted after living for hundreds of years, and his body has changed countless bodies.

This scene in the animation is still quite bold, and the mysterious bonus of the Gaiden novel written by Yu Kamiya alone makes many viewers feel enthusiastic.

The information shown by the anime is only enough for the audience to understand the Holy Grail War, but the first volume of the "Fate/Zero" novel, which was released just this morning, records more content, including the historical background of the three families, the Holy Grail system, the past of each character, and more nuanced descriptions of the characters' feelings. If animation is just expounding a story, then the novel is constructing a complete and self-consistent world and viewing what is happening in Fuyuki City in District 11 from God's vision, and the worldview and power conflict involved are more intuitive than animation.
