Chapter Twenty-Four: The Wish of the Heavenly Mighty People is like the world

"You say the magicians of Einzberen are ready to summon the Holy Grail?" ......After listening to Capel's judgment, Kenneth shook his head and looked contemptuous: "Even if there are some changes in this Holy Grail War, the most fundamental thing cannot be changed!" Without enough Immortal Death to provide high-quality magic to the ritual, the Holy Grail will not come...... And if you look at the sneaky appearance of those guys, they must have gone there to set traps. ”

"You know my inherent skills, right?" [With the strength of those people, there must be a means to conceal the surveillance system! So they did it on purpose to show us...... Why? And this feeling......] Capel was silent for a moment and said, "Although I don't want to believe these things that I can't parse...... My gut tells me that the Holy Grail War will end tonight. ”

"Is that so?" Kenneth got serious: "Then what do you think?" ”

"There are two possibilities, one is that the people of Einzberen have found another way to bring the Holy Grail down, and the other is that there will be a great battle tonight to decide who the Holy Grail will be." The scientist slowly said what was in his mind: "I have a plan......"

……

[Are you still mentioning me after all?] The odds were small ......] Five minutes later, the scientist who had already left the hotel looked down at the three lines on his hand and sighed silently.

[That's it...... You have provided me with enough knowledge that I will do my best to obtain the Holy Grail for you, fair trade, and not owe each other. Capel shook his head and got into a sedan car. [I've done my best, whether you believe me or not, it's your business...... Anyway, I basically have what I want. 】

……

"I'm in the Dongmu Church, the New District Civic Activity Center, and the Demon Envoy placed at the mountain gate of Liudong Temple has been killed!" Facing Weber and the King of Conquest who drove through the sky in a chariot, Emiya Kiritsugu went straight to the point: "It's the heroic spirits of Einzberen who are in action!" ”

"So what are we waiting for?!" Iskandar laughed: "Defeat them!" ”

"Break each one?" [The heroic spirits of Einzberren will not be so stupid, they must have other purposes for dividing their troops...... But it's a great opportunity to cut your opponent's strength! I'm going to have to catch it. Emiya Kiritsugu looked up suddenly: "Rider, I have a proposal......"

……

Ten minutes later, the mountain gate of Liudong Temple.

"Hmm...... Don't hide! Let's fight Yu! Glancing at the silent temple, the King of Conquest opened his voice and shouted, "O Heroic Spirit of Einzberen! Don't let this king underestimate you! ”

"I've always ......been here," a faint voice came from inside the temple, "but I didn't expect it to be you...... Iskander. ”

"Oh...... Why didn't Yu perceive your existence before? Are you also an Assassin? Sensing a few auras that suddenly appeared in the room, Iskandar asked directly, not at all as an enemy.

"It's just a little trick...... Well, it looks like it's just the three of you. Mo Wen slowly walked out of the hut, followed by Sakura and Alice Phil with their heads down: "Since you're here, let's stay here!" ”

After speaking, the monk raised his long sword, and the dazzling blue light rose from the ground, sealing this Liudong Temple in it.

"Three?!" Iskandar frowned.

"Looks like it's been discovered...... Sure enough, this stealth system can't hide it from you. Capel appeared on the walls of the monastery.

"Is that you? Very good! Iskandar drew his sword: "Let's have that unfinished battle!" ”

"Excuse me...... I don't have time. ......The scientist pushed his glasses and knew in his heart: "I'll go first, two of you are free." ”

With that, the scientist disappeared in the same place as last time.

Spell Returns - For Kenneth, who was 'deep-pocketed' at this time, losing a Spell was not a big deal.

"I wanted to catch them all......" The King of Conquest scratched his head regretfully.

“…… You're confident. The monk's face sank like water: "The king's army is powerful...... But alas, you picked the wrong opponent! ”

"Iskandar, you can get out of the game here!"

……

On a hillside on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, the church blends quietly with the night.

In the midst of this darkness, Long Aotian pushed open the door of the church.

Dozens of dark shadows smiled and appeared.

Long Aotian sighed helplessly.

……

New District Civic Activity Center.

"The people around ...... have basically been evacuated" The sky that had just entered the door looked at Xu Ming, who was sweating profusely in the auditorium, and asked, "How is it?" Did the ceremony go well? ”

"Very well...... mage bit his lip and shed a glow between his hands, enveloping Alice Phil in it, "Both of them have successfully suppressed the spirit veins...... In a quarter of an hour at most, I'll be able to get Ellie back! ”

"Good news...... But this quarter of an hour is not easy to bear. The firmament's smile froze on his face: "Someone is coming." ”

Sakura, who was standing quietly behind Xu Ming, looked up when she heard this, only to see two knights in armor appear in front of the door.

[It's them...... Fortunately, it is not signed. Recalling the previous battle plan, the sky tightened his grip on Yuran.

……

An hour ago, Einzbelen Castle.

"I have one more question." After discussing several possible contingencies and their corresponding solutions, Mo Wen asked, "If we kill the Heroic Spirit at this time, will it affect your ritual?" ”

"The impact is there...... But it's a positive impact. Xu Ming nodded: "Ellie is not a real Holy Grail Container yet, and the magic power of the transformed Heroic Spirit that has been killed will be directly poured into the Holy Grail Container I made, and this process will also be helpful to my ritual." ”

"Are you sure? Don't be self-defeating. The sky admonished.

"I'm sure...... The evil of this world is a one-time thing, and I won't give him a chance if I have a lift! Xu Ming hesitated for a moment and continued, "Ellie doesn't have the ability to use the spell now...... And according to our plan, Sakura will have to stay with us as well, and it will be a hassle if you need to be blessed with a spell! I can move the spell to yourselves, and I can use it at any time. ”

"Oh? It's okay to do that. Cangqiong smiled and patted Xu Ming's shoulder: "Then don't do it quickly, all three of them have been transferred to me!" ”

"Yes......"

"Hmm...... Sakura has a spell in her hand to summon, and I'll transfer the remaining two for me. Long Aotian nodded.

“…… Does that make a difference? The monk spoke suddenly.

"It's no different, the contract is still in the hands of the Master, and the magic power is also supplied by the Master."

"But there's going to be attrition, isn't it?"

"...... with little impact"

"The slightest error is likely to affect the outcome of the battle...... Mo Wen flatly refused: "I can use the contract to inform Sakura to use the spell...... There is no need to transfer. ”

"Okay." Seeing that Mo Wen insisted, Xu Ming did not force it.

It's just that Long Aotian, who saw everything in his eyes, frowned.

【…… I see, that's why you can only rank tenth despite your strength not being lost, or even slightly better than me? Long Aotian shook his head secretly. [But this kind of thing can only rely on yourself.] 】

……

"That's it!"

The process of transferring the spell was not complicated, and Xu Ming quickly completed the job.

"So let's get started." Mo Wen looked at the sky, and then with a wave of his hand, the figures of Lias and Bai Qiong turned into the appearance of Sakura and Alice Phil: "I'll go first!" ”

"Have a nice trip!"

……

[Let go of a ...... This one can't run anymore! The monk's face sank like water. [Spirit Gathering Array, up!] 】

"That's what you're sure of? You won't forget what my trick is. Iskandar looked at the brighter and brighter lights around him, laughed and drew his sword: "Return, this king's unequaled army." ”

As the night turned to day, the scorching sand replaced the worn bluestone slabs, and the king, dressed in battle robes, stepped into the middle of the steed and stood proudly in formation, surrounded by soldiers.

“…… The King of Conquest, the last thing you should be up to, except for the Hero King, is me, especially in this place. The monk shook his head and held up the cloud shadow.

"Qingyun has a sword, slash the gods and punish the immortals!"

With the monk's shout, the seven-colored pillars of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple rose from the ground along with the phantom shadows of the mountain peaks, and in the shocked eyes of everyone, thousands of qi swords split across the sky in the blink of an eye.

"O king of Macedonia! Let's take a look at my Qingyun's Zhen Sect Peerless Sect - Zhuxian Sword Formation! The monk who hung in the air laughed, and the sword rained down in the air.

"Haha...... Interesting! The King of Conquest draws his sword: "Maintain formation and cover each other." ”

"Assault of the whole army!"

……

"It doesn't seem like a trap...... And because it's not a Grail Advent ritual. Wright noticed Xu Ming not far behind the sky at a glance. What exactly do you want to do? ”

"Do you think I'm going to tell you?" The sky pouted: "Innocent...... Where's your Master? I'm not with you this time? ”

“…… You deliberately didn't hide that person's actions in order to reassure us, right? Ignoring the firmament's shift, Wright unveiled the Warhammer, which was no ordinary standard product, but a powerful Noble Phantasm.

“…… Let's just say it's useless to play these little tricks. The sky shook Xu Ming's eyes: "Want to fight?" I'm afraid you won't make it! ”

"Wait!" The Knight King glanced at Wright with some displeasure: "Are you trying to take advantage of people's danger?" ”

"It's just that I want him to fight me head-on, and I can't bully the weak." The knight did not waver: "All the more so that this is not a knight's duel, but a war!" Don't forget how this guy used the master to push us into a corner. ”

“…… I'll hold him back. "The Knight King compromised in disguise.

"Okay." Wright nodded.

……

In the inherent enchantment, the offensive of tens of thousands of troops has been completely suppressed by the Zhuxian Sword Array.

But the situation at this time was favorable to the conquering king.

Yes, under the bombardment of the Zhuxian Sword Array, more than half of the army of the conquering king had been lost, and the cavalry was even more annihilated, but after that, the damage caused by the Weather Sword to the king's army dropped suddenly.

The powerful Heroic Spirits led by the King of Conquest have been on the front line of the military array, and the subsequent Heroic Soul sergeants are matched according to their strength and weakness, and they cooperate seamlessly, although there are still Heroic Spirits killed from time to time, but this loss is just a drop in the bucket for tens of thousands of Heroic Soul troops.

"As the emperor of the people, gather the grand wishes of everyone, and tens of thousands of people will unite as one to resist the power of heaven...... It was he who forcibly created a situation of war between heaven and man. Looking at the army under the leadership of Iskandar that was advancing under the rain of swords, the monk sighed softly: "The heroes of the world, worthy of the name! ”

"If this continues, even if I use the killing moves of the Zhuxian Sword Formation to break the enemy in one fell swoop, I will be considered to have lost...... And if it doesn't succeed, it will definitely be overturned, and the risk is too great. ”

"But even if I don't borrow the power of heaven and earth, do you think I can't do anything about you?" The monk smiled lightly and fell from mid-air.

"Iskandar...... You really shouldn't have picked on me. ”

……

Easily dodging the sudden attack of the black shadow, Long Aotian slashed at the back of the opponent's neck with a knife in one hand, only to hear a click, and the last Assassin collapsed on the ground, and quickly became transparent.

"Hmm...... Get. "After making sure that the enemy was cleared, Long Aotian tore open a piece of rune paper." What a boring enemy...... Isn't it? ”

……

Bang! Bang! Bang!!!

The sky just held up the long sword chopped by the Knight King, and the next second it appeared in front of Xu Ming, and took the knight's three hammers hard.

[Whew...... Fortunately, these two guys are both tanks with high defense, high strength, high durability, and good at defense, and I can't bear it if I change to a mage with a high explosion. The firmament's hands trembled slightly.

"How long can you last?" The knight sighed and did not pursue: "You also know that we don't have a liberation treasure now...... Give up, you've already lost. ”

"Don't underestimate me! I haven't played my cards yet. The sky laughed: "And under the prying eyes of that guy, do you dare to shoot with all your might?" ”

"Why don't you dare?" The knight raised his eyebrows: "Since this is your choice, then I'm welcome......"

As he spoke, a soft glow lit up on the knight's silver hammer.

"I also want to thank you, if you hadn't evacuated the people here in advance, I wouldn't have dared to unleash this trick."

"Hmph, you don't care about the lives of these people, and the other guys won't care about ......" [Hmm, Mo Wen is at war with the Great Emperor, and Long Aotian has also cleaned up the Assassin, it seems that there are only three of them here for me......] Firmament Horizontal Sword. [I can't put it off any longer.] 】

"Even so, I would like to thank you for your kindness...... Don't worry, I'll spare your master's life! The knight raised the hammer, and the light shrouded it was already like substance: "Hammer of Destruction!" ”

"I'll talk about it if I win......" [Do you think there's that guy from Emiya Kiritsugu, and you've done the master?] The sky sneered, and the red light of the three spells on the back of his hand gradually rose: "True name proclamation - Azure Blade!" ”

……

At the moment when the sky opened, not only the knight who was ready to release his tricks, but also Artoria, who subconsciously released the water because of the rejection of the siege, or Capel, who was hiding not far away and observing silently, all found that they had lost control of their bodies.

What is it? Treasure? Or is it another dimension? The knight found himself in an unknown place, and even if he tried his best to perceive it, all he got was nothingness.

However, this situation was soon over, and after three seconds, the knight regained control of his body and sensed the presence of his companion and the peeping man, as well as the firmament himself, but everyone's breath flickered, like seeing flowers in the fog and looking at the moon in the water.

Hazy and unreal.

[This trick doesn't seem to cause harm to others...... Is it here to delay time? Just as the knight thought so, a familiar voice rang in his ears.

"Under the sky, the moon is bright at the end of the world. The vicissitudes of life are not, and a few people sigh heroes! ”

Unlike usual, the sound of the sky at this time is ethereal and dusty, giving people the feeling of a hermit who has seen through the red dust.

"The red face in the mirror has changed, and the pen is empty. How many things can you talk about in your life? ”

As the last note fell, the whole world became clear in that instant.

The stars are dotted and the full moon is high.

The clouds are like a sea, and there is no end in sight.

"War is a game of heroes and heroes, history is the legend of talented and beautiful people, compared with the rise and fall of the country, personal gains and losses are nothing more than a small thing, not worth mentioning. But in the face of this vast world and endless time and space, isn't the rise and fall of a country insignificant? The sky stood in the clouds with his hands in his hands, smiling with a little nostalgia.

"Mountains and seas are always there, time and space are eternal. Welcome to the world of my mental imagery, the sky! ”
