Chapter 26: Make an Alliance

Emiya Kiritsugu was silent, he was secretly thinking to himself whether to believe Zhou Xiaoning's words. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

As a contender for the Holy Grail, Emiya Kiritsugu has reason to believe that Zhou Xiaoning is talking nonsense, in order to get him out of the Holy Grail War, so that he can have one less strong enemy. But if the Holy Grail is really as Zhou Xiaoning said, if he finally wins and summons the Holy Grail, then won't he become a sinner in the world?

"Why should I trust you?"

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were full of doubts, he could be said to have given everything for this Holy Grail War, and it was impossible for him to give up because of Zhou Xiaoning's words.

"Hehe, Emiya Kiritsu, you still haven't seen the situation clearly."

Zhou Xiaoning sneered, Long Wei erupted, and the violent momentum swept the entire room, if it weren't for Artoria blocking in front of Emiya Kiritsugu and Alice Phil in time, the two of them would have been suppressed by Long Wei and couldn't stand up.

"You have to be clear, I have Lancer, Berserker and my three Heroic Spirit-level combat power on my side, and you only have Saber, if I want to destroy you, it will be easy, why waste so many words with you."

After saying that, Zhou Xiaoning put Long Wei away, he just wanted to show his strength, not really want to start a war with Artoria.

Emiya Kiritsugu fell silent again, he knew that what Zhou Xiaoning said was right, even now, as long as Zhou Xiaoning summoned Lancer with the Command Spell, with the strength of the two of them, it was enough to wipe out himself and others, and there was no need to make up lies to deceive them.

"Is it true that what he said?"

Emiya Kiritsugu was shaken, if that was the case, then what was his effort, what was it to be ruthless and watch Alice Fell step by step towards death?

"You know, you know, I actually admire you, but at the same time I despise you. I appreciate your efforts, but at the same time despise your arrogance. Partners in justice? Want to save the world? Who gave you the qualifications, and are you capable enough? ”

"I ......"

Zhou Xiaoning didn't give Wei Gong Kiritsugu a chance to argue, and brought out the famous Q&A in the original plot. However, Zhou Xiaoning doesn't remember the original plot very clearly, so he can only follow his own ideas, but the meaning is still the same.

"Emiya Kiritsugu I know that your principles are for the sake of the many, and you can give up the few. So let's do a simple quiz, what if one day, the end of the world, the whole earth is submerged, and only five hundred people on two boats and you are left alive, one of which has three hundred people and the other has two hundred people. Unfortunately, a storm caused both boats to leak, and among the people present, you were the only one who could repair the ship, but the ship sank quickly, and the remaining time was only enough for you to save one ship, what should you choose? ”

"The one with three hundred, of course."

Emiya Kiritsugu replied simply, but he chose to follow his truest thoughts.

"Very well, you saved three hundred people with the sacrifice of those two hundred, and they are very grateful to you. The boat continued to drift, and one day, the boat unfortunately ran aground, and this time even you couldn't fix it. But fortunately, there are lifeboats on board, but the lifeboats are limited and can only carry two hundred people. You put 200 people in the lifeboat, and the remaining 100 people begged you to get on the lifeboat too, and the two sides were deadlocked. If this continues, no one will survive, may I ask, how do you solve it? ”

"Kill!"

Emiya Kiritsugu spat out chilling words, but his body began to tremble.

"Yes, those two hundred were saved, and they wept little gratitude to you for saving them again."

Zhou Xiaoning couldn't help but applaud Wei Gong Kiritsu, it is rare to see people who implement their principles so resolutely. But soon, a sneer appeared on Zhou Xiaoning's face, hoping that he could keep going.

"You continued to survive with the remaining two hundred, but unfortunately a disease began to circulate among you, and all of you got sick. You can cure this disease, but the medicine you brought with you when you fled is only enough to cure a hundred and fifty people, and you say, what will happen to the remaining fifty? ”

"Kill!"

Another word "kill" spit out from Emiya Kiritsugu's mouth, at this time he was already covered in cold sweat, he was shaken for the first time in his beliefs, is it really right to sacrifice a few people for the sake of the majority, if it is really correct, then why did he kill so many more people than he saved.

"Very well, the one hundred and fifty men have recovered, and will find an island where you can recuperate. But that island is so small that it can accommodate a hundred people at most, and the remaining fifty people want to land on the island, but then no one can survive, is there anything you can do about it? ”

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Emiya Kiritsugu roared, no longer living up to his usual calmness.

Zhou Xiaoning turned a deaf ear to this and continued to ask: "Emiya Kiritsu, you have to know that people are greedy, and in order to live a better life, they will have conflicts, assuming that every time you stand on which side of the more people, you will dispose of the few who resist." Finally, one day, there are three people left in front of you, two people on one side and one person on the other, which side do you want to solve? ”

"Enough, don't ask me that kind of question!"

Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly got up and yelled, causing Alice Phil and Artoria to look at him in surprise.

"Oh, yes, I was able to break free from my illusion so quickly." Zhou Xiaoning smiled faintly.

If you look closely, you will find that Zhou Xiaoning's eyes have changed into dragon pupils, and the previous questions and answers were all conducted in the mental space after Zhou Xiaoning applied illusions to Emiya Kiritsu, and it is precisely because of this that Emiya Kiritsugu was so easily misled by him and continued this question and answer.

However, in the eyes of Alice Phil and Artoria, Zhou Xiaoning and Emiya Kiritsugu only glanced at each other, and then they both fell silent. Until Emiya Kiritsugu yelled, it was only ten seconds before and after.

Realizing that he had lost his temper, Emiya Kiritsugu took a deep breath and calmed himself down. He shook his head at Alice Fell, signaling that he was fine, but he didn't talk about what he had experienced in the illusion, and that he could bear it alone.

"Why do you ask me such a question, are you happy to see the torment in my heart!"

It seems that Emiya Kiritsugu, who has calmed down, has undergone some kind of transformation, but I can't say exactly where it has changed, if there is one to say, it is probably a little more "human".

"Hehe, don't be so aggressive, I'm just making you realize your weakness. Isn't it more realistic to admit that your abilities are limited and that it is impossible to save everyone, and instead of spending your life and sacrificing everything you have for an impossible goal, it is better to set your sights on blocking and protect what you cherish. ”

Zhou Xiaoning's words seemed to make Emiya Kiritsugu feel deeply, he couldn't help but clench Alice Fair's hand, and at the same time secretly thought to himself, for his wish, to watch his lover die, is it really worth it?

Zhou Xiaoning saw that there was a play, and immediately took advantage of the victory to chase after him: "Emiya Kiritsu, you have to think clearly, there is no Avalon in your wife's body anymore, probably the magic power of three heroic spirits is enough to paralyze her whole body, waiting for death to come, do you really bear it?" ”

"Wait, Alice and the Heroic Spirit...... Is there a relationship between the two? ”

Artoria obviously didn't know anything yet, otherwise with her character, it would be impossible for her to participate in the Holy Grail War without burden, and she was so active.

"Don't you know that Alice Phil is the 'Little Grail' prepared by the Einzberen family for this Holy Grail War, once the 'Little Grail' is filled with the magic of at least five Heroic Spirits, it will manifest and summon the 'Great Grail', and then Alice Phil will cease to exist."

Zhou Xiaoning's words were like a sharp sword stuck in Artoria's heart, if you want to get the Holy Grail and make a wish, you must sacrifice Alice Phil, how can this be!

Artoria remembered the time she spent with Alice Phil, and she couldn't bear to watch Alice Phil die like this. What's more, before leaving, Artoria also wanted Illya to promise that she would definitely take Emiya Kiritsugu and Alice Phil back safely, as a knight, how could she break her word?

"Is there no other way?"

Artoria had a hint of expectation in her eyes, there should be, the best of both worlds.

However, as soon as Kiritsugu Emiya made contact with Artoria's gaze, he couldn't help but look away, if there was a way, he would have used it a long time ago, how could he wait until now. What made him even more helpless was that Illya was still staying at the Einzberen house, and even for the sake of his daughter, he and Alice Fell could not withdraw from the Holy Grail War.

Seeing this, Artoria is desperate, on the one hand, she has always been sad, and on the other hand, the life of her friend, how can she choose?

"It's not like there's no way."

Zhou Xiaoning's words were like a ray of light, instantly attracting the attention of the three of Artoria.

At the same time, staring at three pairs of expectant eyes, Zhou Xiaoning was really a little nervous, and couldn't help coughing dryly: "I will try to extract the 'Little Grail' in Alice Phil's body and use other things as a support." ”

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Weigong Kiritsugu is the first to look at Zhou Xiaoning, this guy is just unprofitable and can't afford to be early, if he doesn't have some sweetness, he won't make a move easily.

"Hehe, happy, I don't embarrass you, I just want to form an alliance with you. Until the Great Grail is summoned, we will work together. After that, when you see what is in the Holy Grail, decide whether you want to continue to believe me. ”
