Chapter Twenty-Three: All or Nothing All-Out War
Noon on the fourth day of the Holy Grail War.
Xu Ming, who had been sitting beside Alice Fell for more than ten hours with his eyes closed, finally opened his eyes.
"The result?"
"Worst-case scenario...... Xu Ming smiled bitterly and withdrew the hand holding Alice Field's wrist, "Brother, can you please do one thing?" β
ββ¦β¦ Is it really that serious?! The firmament's face sank.
ββ¦β¦ For me, this is the ultimate purpose of my involvement in the Holy Grail War. Looking at his wife who was lying quietly on the bed, Xu Ming bit his lip.
ββ¦β¦ Okay, but I don't think I can do it alone. βγβ¦β¦ Is this the case, but it seems that the elder brother is going to make a big move, and it is easy to turn it into a decisive battle directly at this juncture] Cangqiong nodded: "I'll call them, and you can tell us in detail about the matter." β
"But now we're running out of time!" Xu Ming pulled the sleeves of the firmament, and he was a little excited.
"So you TMD calm me down! Light rush has woolen yarn! Can you save your brother and sister in a hurry? The firmament was a slap in the face, which directly made Xu Ming stunned in place.
"Want to dry the rack? If you are in a hurry, adjust your own state first, and then think carefully about what to do later! β
The sky left this sentence and disappeared in a flash.
"......" [Hey...... It really hurts. Xu Ming touched the fingerprints on his cheeks, sat back on the edge of the bed, and looked at his wife's quiet sleeping face, and the mage's eyes flashed with wisdom again.
γEly...... Trust me, I'll help you get rid of that damn fate! γ
β¦β¦
The firmament was fast, and fifteen seconds later, the four Heroic Spirits from the Grail Destroyer were gathered in the bedroom.
"Okay, let's talk about the specifics." The firmament completely ignored the bright red slap prints on Xu Ming's face and the strange gazes of Mo Wen and Long Aotian.
"Hmm." Xu Ming nodded: "The purpose of this Holy Grail War, the purpose of my participation is not only to destroy the contaminated Holy Grail, but more importantly, to save my wife...... Because she was the vessel made by Einzbelen for the Holy Grail of Advention. β
"To this end, I infiltrated the base of the Holy Grail Advent Ritual at the foot of Enzo Mountain before the Holy Grail War actually began, and tried to modify the ...... After turning myself into a half-Immortal, I thought I had succeeded. Speaking of this, Xu Ming gritted his teeth: "However, I was wrong, the evil of this world hidden in the Holy Grail still affects Ellie's ability, just yesterday ......"
"There's a Heroic Spirit leaving, isn't it......" Mo Wen suddenly spoke.
ββ¦β¦ Yes, there were two Heroic Spirits back yesterday, but I don't know who they were. Xu Ming glanced at Mo Wen with some surprise and nodded in affirmativeness.
[...... the power of the 'Strings of Destiny' is much weaker.] When his luck dropped from Ex to A, Mo Wen felt as if he had lost something, and after asking Sakura, he was sure that his attributes had changed. [The rest of the guys, except for the spearman, are not low in luck...... In other words, this skill is useless. γ
"It was through the vast and pure magic brought by the Exit Heroic Spirit, under the control of the evil of this world, that the Holy Grail reconnected with Ellie, and if there was no external interference, it would take at most another twelve hours for her to transform back into the container of the Holy Grail......"
"What do you need us to do?" Long Aotian asked.
ββ¦β¦ To save Ellie, I must take her to a place where there is enough spirit personality for the Celestial Descent, and then I will perform a ritual to stuff the high-purity magic that has entered Ellie's body back into the container I have recreated. Xu Ming glanced at the sky, and then said his plan: "This is the only way I can think of." β
"I didn't mean to hit you, but do you think you can succeed?" Mo Wen shook his head: "Yuanzang Mountain Liudong Temple, Yuansaka Mansion, and Dongmu Church, these three places that have long been occupied by forces are temporarily aside, the one-time sΓ©ance site formed after tomorrow, and the civic activity center of the emerging residential area are all stared at by others, and it is absolutely impossible for our large-scale actions to hide from them...... This will inevitably lead to a decisive battle - or will you have the confidence to keep the ritual undisturbed in a battle where skills are washed and ultimates are raging? β
"It's not impossible." The sky patted Xu Ming's shoulder, whose face turned gray in an instant: "Brother, how long does the ceremony last?" β
"Three hours...... No, maybe you can ...... in two hours" The mage's voice faded instantly, until it was inaudible.
He also understood how difficult it was to protect himself for the Holy Grail Vessel Modification Ritual for such a long time.
"Two hours? It's a bit too long......" The sky shook his head, "Is there a way to speed it up?" β
"If someone suppresses the spiritual power of other sΓ©ance locations, then the spiritual power of the corresponding sΓ©ance location where I am will increase...... I'm going to do the ceremony a lot faster. Xu Ming said in a low voice.
"Then why don't you just choose the Liudong Temple of Yuanzang Mountain?" Long Aotian asked.
"If the ritual is held in a place with strong spiritual power, that is, in the 'Dragon Cave', it will inevitably cause the evil of this world to counterattack...... If you are outside the mountain, the effect is not much different from other places. β
"If you suppress two spiritual lands, are you sure you can complete it within an hour?" The sky stared at Xu Ming's eyes tightly.
"I haven't tried it though...... But it should be fine! Xu Ming gritted his teeth.
"Are you really going to do that?" Don't ask an eyebrow.
"Why not?" Cangqiong smiled: "The soldiers are divided into three ways, which can not only have the effect of confusing the enemy and distracting the enemy's forces, but also speed up the ceremony, killing two birds with one stone." β
"It's also possible that they will be broken by each of them!" Mo Wen had a cold face: "You are gambling with the lives of all of us!" β
"It's not really dead...... Why not bet. Facing Mo Wen's question, the sky was indifferent: "Even if it's really dead...... When it's time to play with your life, you have to play with your life! β
"Brother......
"Don't be moved too quickly, it doesn't matter if this world is crazy with you, but let me really play with my life for you...... Comrade Xu Ming, I haven't left the group yet, and I don't want to die. The sky said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
"You've made up your mind?" Long Aotian, who was silent for a while, spoke.
"Yes, even if you don't help, my choice won't change." The sky is colorful.
"If we fail, you should know better than I what the consequences will be."
"Do you still need to test me now? I thought we were good friends. The sky sighed: "Save one person and save a group of people, although I can't choose at the moment...... But I believe that at the moment we have multiple options. β
"You've passed." Long Aotian had two points of disappointment and eight points in his eyes, and then looked at Mo and asked, "Brother Mo? β
ββ¦β¦ I'm also responsible for my people. Mo Wen was silent for a moment and breathed a sigh of relief: "You have to prove that you have the ability to hold back the enemy." β
ββ¦β¦ How's that? The sky smiled, revealing his Heroic Spirit panel.
ββ¦β¦ It is true that there is no possibility of success. Mo Wen nodded: "What if other forces concentrate on attacking?" β
"Run." "The worst-case scenario is that those guys will all besiege me and my brother, and then they will rely on you to come back for help." β
"In that case, the speed of the ritual will be slowed down a lot." Mo Wen shook his head: "I have a set of formations, and I should be able to complete the spiritual suppression you said on the shelf, and you can see if there is any difference between the effect and what you want." β
As he spoke, the monk stretched out his index finger, and dozens of filaments of light intertwined with each other, forming a complex image.
"No problem! Feasible! Xu Ming felt it seriously for a while, and then nodded heavily: "So that we can act together......"
"It's better to be separated." The firmament opened his mouth and interrupted Xu Ming's words: "If the other forces don't concentrate on attacking someone, let's stay in the spiritual land we are responsible for and don't act rashly, otherwise it will be easy to touch the sensitive nerves of others!" β
"That's right, and we have to discuss the specific location of the ceremony, the choice of the spiritual place of suppression, and the corresponding personnel allocation." Long Aotian said in a deep voice: "The stakes are very high, we must plan carefully." β
β¦β¦
Holy Grail War, Fourth Day Dusk.
"The forces of Einzberen are divided into three routes, and the destinations have been judged, which are the Dongmu Church, the New District Civic Activity Center, and the Liudong Temple in Yuanzang Mountain."
γβ¦β¦ What do they want to do? After receiving the report from the artificial intelligence, Capel was silent for a moment, got up and walked to Kenneth's study.
β¦β¦
[The guards I placed in those places of the Holy Grail Advent have been destroyed!] Kiritsugu Emiya, who was watching Kenneth, was stunned with a look of disbelief in his eyes.
[Why did they pick this time...... Could it be that the Holy Grail is ready to come? γ
At this thought, the magician killer couldn't sit still anymore and hurriedly dialed Webb's contact number.
β¦β¦
The final battle of the Holy Grail War slowly kicked off.
Upcoming Chapters:
Wright: Give it up! You've already lost!
Long Aotian: What a boring enemy...... Isn't it?

Capel: But I've seen it all before.
Firmament: Hahaha, pretending to be like the wind, always with me, it's time for you to see the real plug-in!
Ps: I was going to finish the Holy Grail War plot next week, but I ended up working overtime this Saturday, and I guess I will add it next Saturday...... Evil capitalism~~ After a few photos, I expected to hold back the manuscript for a week and update it every day, but now it seems that it is enough to choke
