Clang! Rumble!
In the early morning, before everything woke up from the silence, a fierce battle broke out in the courtyard of Shirou's house.
Cú Chulainn and Hei Zhen teamed up to deal with Gollum, and Gollum used two thorn spears, and under the joint efforts of the two, they did not fall behind, no, Gollum still had the advantage.
Ku Chulainn's fighting skills are full, but they are also slightly inferior to Gollum, although Hei Zhen's strength is great, but it can't provide her with an advantage in front of those with exceptional strength, after a few minutes of stalemate, Gollum used Lune magic to repel Black Zhen, and then blocked Ku Chulainn with a single shot, and the other shot sent him seven or eight meters away.
"It's exactly the same as the master."
Cú Chulainn crawled to his feet and ate a mouthful of ash, the battle with Gollum reminded him of his time in the Land of Shadows, when he was desperately practicing his marksmanship every day.
Although Master Skahar has many disciples, Cu Chulainn has always been the most beloved one, whether it is chatting or fighting, he is looking for him, and his fellow disciples were quite jealous of Cu Chulainn, especially when the master finally handed him the magic spear, the eyes of those senior brothers were about to eat people.
"Alas~~ I can't help much."
Illya watched the battle idlely, both magicians, there was no one with such a big gap, before the appearance of Gollum, even Illya never thought that humans could surpass the servants, it was completely out of line with the regulations.
"Not necessarily~~ We also have things we can do."
Tosaka is optimistic, she has found a magician's way of fighting, if not like Gollum, not so powerless.
The magic dress is divided into two major systems of armament and auxiliary ritual equipment to support magic, one is to increase the function, increase and supplement the magic power of the magician, and strengthen the reserve fuel for the magic performed by the magician himself, which is the orthodox auxiliary equipment, as long as the magician, at least one magic prop will be owned.
There is also a limited function, and the weapon becomes one of the "magic", which becomes a special magic item, and uses the magician's magic power as the power source to activate and implement a specific "mystery".
The biggest advantage is that if you infuse it with magic, you can perform magic that even the user can't show.
Although it should not be widespread, it has only a single purpose, but because of this, it is used for big magic tricks.
A spear that pierces the heart, a whip that serves the beast, and a short blade that negates all magical effects.
Most of the Noble Phantasms held by the Servant belong to this system.
The heirloom owned by Tosaka is called the Jewel Sword, but which category should the Jewel Sword belong to? It is a secondary weapon that grants magic to the owner. Or take down the enemy's limited armament with a special ability?
Tosaka didn't know this, but the gem sword was a magic dress that dealt with the evil of the Holy Grail, and the master of the Tosaka clan relied on this sword to suppress the evil of the Holy Grail.
"Huh... Can this kind of thing help? ”
Illya researched with Tosaka with curiosity.
It wasn't long before the sun had set, and it was past seven o'clock.
It's very strange, everyone feels the same, pulling tense nerves, and when they come back to their senses, time is gone.
In the evening, everyone gathered around the table and shared what they knew, and then Illya explained the origin of the Holy Grail War.
The Holy Grail is the wish machine that fulfills all wishes, and in order to achieve this goal, Einzberen cooperates with Machiri and the Tosaka family to perform the ritual of summoning the Holy Grail.
This was the beginning of the Holy Grail War, where seven Heroic Spirits were summoned to fight each other for the ownership of the Holy Grail, and in the case of the Holy Grail, the Master was the magician chosen to let the Heroic Spirits look down on each other and fight each other until the last man left.
That's what the rules of the Holy Grail War look like.
However, in fact, the process of Servants fighting each other is simply redundant. Servants are summoned by the Holy Grail, and regardless of whether the person receiving the Holy Grail is appropriate or not, the Immortal is summoned to be a decision item.
In order to obtain the Holy Grail, the summoned Heroic Spirits stayed in the present world, and made a pact with the Master to defeat the Holy Grail Explorers other than themselves, and it would be fine if the defeated ones disappeared, but in fact, these Heroic Spirits were absorbed by the Holy Grail.
Heroic Spirits are just one of the elements used by the Holy Grail to determine the right Master, so why should the Holy Grail absorb useless Heroic Spirits?
In fact, for the Holy Grail War, only the Heroic Spirits are necessary, and the Master is nothing more than a prop for the Heroic Spirits to appear.
In the ritual called the Holy Grail War, the Master is only the recipient of the summoned world, as long as the Servant is summoned, and it doesn't matter if he lives or dies.
The only thing necessary to complete the Holy Grail is the Heroic Spirit.
A pure soul outside the timeline, a heroic spirit who is outside the truth of this world but can interfere with the forces of the outside world of this world, that is, the hero who carved his name on the Valhalla.
Miracles that cannot be reached with human hands, in order to obtain phenomena that are not human, so the Holy Grail War was born.
"The Holy Grail is not just a wish-granting machine, if the owner gets the soul of the Seven Horsemen, it can build a bridge and communicate with the origin of the world." Illya made the final conclusion.
Once the true Holy Grail War is completed, the wish for immortality is only in the blink of an eye, and the name that can achieve miracles is the Heavenly Cup, one of the five existing magics, the Golden Cup, which is located in the third position.
Magic.
It is a mystery that magic cannot reach, that is, a phenomenon that cannot be reached and realized by using all means to reach and achieve with the current human being.
For the magician, it is not only the ultimate goal, but also the person who achieves it and attains it is called a "magician" in a tone of reverence and awe.
At present, there are five magic recognized by the Magic Association, and there are only a few people who can use magic in history.
Although the magic of Gollum is many and complicated, there is no one that can reach the level of magic, and even the magic of the gods cannot be extended to such a miracle.
"Then why did the Holy Grail become like this?"
According to Illya, the Holy Grail is supposed to be incomparably mysterious, but now it seems incomparably sinful.
"It's the relationship of my ancestors."
Illya goes on to tell the crowd that during one of the Holy Grail Wars, the House of Einzberen broke the rules.
Avengers, for all purposes, this class doesn't exist in the Holy Grail Wars.
The first appearance was the fouler summoned by the Einzberen family to break the rules, and Anglomaia (all the evil in this life) was the first to appear as the Avenger, and then the Holy Grail was tainted by him.
