"Hiccup" Xia Bai burped comfortably, leaned on the back of the chair behind him and didn't want to move, in general, Cleopatra's craftsmanship is also outstanding in this group of people, after all, everyone else is basically dark cuisine except for barbecue.

Dinner, well, let's just count it as dinner, it's a Chinese meal similar to stewed beef brisket with tomatoes. I don't know where Cleopatra, a heroic spirit from Egypt, learned it, and the taste is not bad, just look at Asterius who is still feeding himself over there, but it's strange why he doesn't shy away from eating beef at all.

Xia Bai thought about this strange question, and finally boiled it down to maybe Asterius and the cow should have nothing to do with each other in real history, just like the Grand Duke actually had nothing to do with vampires.

Hei Zhen on the side put down the clean bowl in his hand and said expressionlessly: "It's average, I can barely fill my stomach." It just so happened that Cleopatra didn't quarrel with her at this time, Xia Bai just silently glanced at Heizhen's bowl and withdrew his gaze.

"Master, according to my intelligence in the city, the demonic beasts in the forest have begun to move." Bai Xiang on the side also cleverly avoided this topic, and chatted with Xia Bai about the latest information from the Federation.

"Really?" Xia Bai glanced at the spell in his hand: "I hope to give me a little more time, the main line will be completed in a few days, I don't know if calling out the little chalice will have some substantial gain for us." ”

Xia Bai no longer expects to have the effect of the Great Holy Grail that can really fulfill his wishes before the three wars like in the original book, even if it can greatly improve the strength of the Heroic Spirit like in the FGO Peculiarity, he is satisfied.

The days continued uneventfully, and every day Xia Bai was trying his best to instill magic into the system. Finally, a few days later, the accumulation of mana finally reached 99%, and the heroic spirits gathered on the square and waited quietly for the magic in Xia Bai's body to slowly recover.

As Xia Bai once again instilled the magic power in his body into the system, the number showing the progress of mana collection finally reached 100%. A familiar system prompt sounded, and the system's task was finally completed.

"Ding, the main quest of the system is complete. The countdown to the arrival of the Little Grail begins, 3, 2, 1. The voice of the system sounded in Xia Bai's mind, and when the countdown ended, a ball of light flew out from the spell on the back of Xia Bai's hand.

The milky white ball of light gradually expanded in the air, and finally turned into a chiseled golden chalice floating in front of Xia Bai's body, and when the chalice was fully revealed, everything around it turned gray and white in the blink of an eye, and the time of the world seemed to stop flowing at this moment.

Then, the voice of the system sounded in Xia Bai's heart. "It has been detected that the host is involuntarily crossing, and the Little Holy Grail has appeared, which meets the conditions for the launch of the choice of fate, and the choice of Ming Yun is now opened."

The page of the system automatically popped up a multiple-choice question in front of Xia Bai: "Destiny's Choice: 1. Leave: Volatilize all the Little Chalice Force and all the Heroic Spirit magic in this world to open the passage back to Earth; 2. Stay: Sacrifice the Little Chalice to the first special point, which greatly enhances its connection with the Moon." ”

Xia Bai looked at the only non-repeatable choice written under the multiple-choice question, that is, after choosing option 2, he could not choose the little chalice again after obtaining it, and the hand that had already raised trembled slightly, he didn't expect the little chalice to have this similar function to making a wish to go home.

Although he has no relatives on earth, the word home can only be known by wanderers who have been away from their hometown for a long time, and when you have the opportunity to return to a familiar place and a familiar environment, few people can resist this kind of longing.

But Xia Bai's trembling hand slowly stopped before option 1, he knew what it meant to press 1, during this time, it can be said that the group of heroic spirits who unconditionally trusted him would be annihilated with the torrent of magic and return to the barren Valhalla.

Looking at the heroic spirits around him, Xia Bai laughed miserably: "I'm a deserter when I'm gone, Arash, I may understand what trust you mean by trust." Pressing his finger towards option 2, Xia Bai was not confused in his heart, he couldn't let go of this group of people who gave him trust.

As his fingers fell, the small chalice in front of Xia Bai's eyes turned into a golden wave of light that covered the entire Dragon City, and Xia Bai also got rid of the distorted time, but all the Heroic Spirits were looking at him with a smile.

"Isn't that stupid?" The first person to speak was Hei Zhen, and this was the first time Xia Bai saw this kind of quiet, recognition-like smile on Hei Zhen's face. After that, as Xia Bai's gaze swept over, everyone was saying congratulations, come on, and the like.

Xia Bai looked at everyone with a confused face: "You all know that? You can all see the scene just now? Richard, who was closest to him, smiled and nodded, "Valhalla will still tell us the reason for our stay, so we were actually watching in silence just now. ”

"Well, I didn't expect to be seen by you just now." Xia Bai instantly felt that he was like a drama spirit just now, hesitating in front of so many people, not decisive at all.

"Absolutely not," Richard put away his smile and said seriously, "I thought from the moment you pressed the option just now, even in ancient times, you would be the best monarch. Because if I were faced with the same choice, I can't guarantee that I would definitely choose to stay, but you made the decision in just a few minutes. ”

"Yes, Master, that's the best thing about you." Arash stood behind Richard and said, the heroic spirits present and even Heizhen nodded in unison, and Xia Baitou also blushed as soon as he received such a grand compliment.

At this time, the transformation of the Dragon City has also been completed, and all the walls are tattooed with ancient mysterious runes, and it seems that the hardness has increased by I don't know how many times compared to before, and the number of dragon species around it has nearly doubled.

Of course, what attracted everyone's attention the most at this moment was the altar that was first established in the City Lord's Mansion, a black pillar of light rose from the ground and pierced straight into the clouds in the air, and then splashed down, forming a faint black light film to protect the Dragon City, and then disappeared invisibly, obviously only at a critical moment.

Of course, it didn't stop there, a huge black dragon was silently hovering above the altar and roaring in the sky. "This is? Fafnir, the evil dragon? Xia Bai looked at the huge figure and decisively recognized this evil dragon with a high appearance rate in FGO.
