Chapter 313: Two Fated Battles!
In the silence, a scorching stench came to my nose, and there seemed to be a fire somewhere in the sprawling building.
Without hurry, Emiya Kiritsugu slowly walked into the center of the uninhabited porch with decisive and light steps.
He moderately relaxes the muscles of the whole body and does not exert excess force on any part. On the other hand, the nerves are like a mirror that is quieter and clearer than the surface of an icy lake, reflecting the panorama of the surrounding area. Sharper than hearing, clearer than visual, without any dead ends. Transform yourself into a probe that will immediately detect the slightest movement, and wander in the dark.
Yan Feng Qili should be somewhere in this Fuyuki Civic Hall, waiting for the arrival of Emiya Kiritsugu.
As a result, Kiritsugu's ambush plan did fall through. But he felt no remorse. Because he was finally able to grasp the true face of Yan Feng Qili, an enemy full of mysteries, it was quite rewarding. It was precisely because all of Kiritsugu's predictions fell short that he relied on the elimination method to come up with the answer.
In a word, the man had no interest in the Holy Grail.
Normally, all Masters will fight for the Holy Grail. This preconceived notion has blinded Kiritsugu to this day. Because of this, Yan Feng Qili's actions that had nothing to do with the Holy Grail made Kiritsu puzzled.
However, Kiritsugu saw Kirei's strategy for the Chalice Advent ceremony tonight and realized that he had made a fundamental mistake.
Qili's preparations for the use of this Fuyuki Civic Hall as an altar were too thorough. This fragile fortress is inherently deficient as a fortress of magic. But he didn't take any defensive measures. Even if you're pressed for time, at least simple traps and barriers should be set up. Besides, if it was really too late to prepare, how could they make the move of summoning the other Servants to come to the decisive battle. Take a hundred steps back. Even if he really didn't know anything about magic as a means of defense, then why would he choose the most unsuitable location of the four spirit veins for defensive warfare.
Come to think of this. Kiritsugu could only think that for Yan Feng Qili, the advent of the Holy Grail was secondary. The man was simply because there was the least chance of being ambushed here. I chose the Fuyuki Civic Hall. Rather than smoothly bring the Holy Grail to the end, he wants to gain a favorable lead in the final battle with the Master.
The purpose of the Rite of Grace is not the Holy Grail, but the bloodshed in the process of achieving it. That reason is neither inquisitable nor needs to be explored. It is enough to understand who the agent is targeting.
Kiritsu slowly gripped Thompson. Contender's gun handle, the solid walnut touch of his fingers, and he pondered the face of a man he had only seen in photographs.
Even if I think about where I am and how I have formed a relationship with Yan Feng Qili now, it is only an empty attempt. Kiritsugu's life was not easy enough to assert that he had never made a feud with anyone. It's just an outsider who broke into the Holy Grail War purely because of a personal grudge against Kiritsugu - that possibility can only be ruled out on the basis of probability. Although it is highly unlikely that an outsider survived the Holy Grail War to the end and directed a farce that upset the direction of the Holy Grail. But the reality is right in front of him, and Kiritsugu has no choice but to accept it as a fact.
Emiya Kiritsugu never sought the truth and the answer to things. For him, the only thing to care about is the "situation".
He just vowed in his heart to save more people. There is no distinction between high and low lives saved. The scales in which sacrifice and relief are measured have nothing to do with the justification or the circumstances. That's how he survives. He would never be foolish enough to inquire into the meaning of his actions.
Therefore, there is no longer the slightest fear and sense of crisis in Kiriji's heart that he once had for Yan Feng Qili.
From the moment he knew what his purpose was, the man was reduced to a mere obstacle to Kiritsugu's progress. No matter what kind of strong enemy the other party is, as long as you are sure that it is the person you must challenge, then you will no longer be the object of affection. There is no fear, no hatred, neither contempt nor mercy, only exclusion is considered. That's the only function that Kiritsugu has given to himself as a killing machine.
The main part of the Fuyuki Civic Hall is a large concert hall that covers the first floor to the third floor. Qili placed the remains of the dead android on a stage that had been completely renovated and was only waiting for the first performance.
In its soft abdominal cavity, there is a pronounced foreign body sensation. I guess the Holy Grail that has been mixed into the organs is returning to its original appearance. Although Qili can now cut open the abdominal cavity and remove it. But he wasn't in a hurry. If one more Servant soul is recovered, the exterior should automatically collapse and reveal the Holy Grail. You just have to wait.
Archer confronts Rider at the bridge, and Berserker stops Saber in the underground parking lot. Everything went smoothly. Now no one bothered Qili.
He left the recital hall and went down the hallway. Suddenly, black smoke filled the air. The point of fire should be the battlefield underground. Judging by the depth of the smell. The fire appears to have spread to various parts of the building. However, all external communication lines, including fire alarms, have been cut off, so that as long as the flames do not spill outside the building, they will not be detected by nearby residents.
Every step I take, I feel more and more excited. I can't help but blurt out the blessed verses.
- The Lord awakens my soul, please guide me on the right path except Allah. Even though I wander in the valley of death. and I will not fear the devil, for Allah is with me.
Here he is. Now I will inevitably meet him.
Emiya Kiritsugu is nearby. Just as Qili longed for his arrival. He's also on the hunt for Qili.
The flames had dispelled the darkness and swayed and danced throughout the hallway. The heat caressed Qili's cheek, but he didn't care. The tide of blood tumbling in his heart was hotter than the flames.
For the first time, she felt blessed. The God, who had never favored him in his life, finally gave him a revelation.
No, it should not be the so-called god, the god who has never come to me without a so-called miracle should not exist at all, the only real god is my lord Li Amen!!
Only God Lee Amen gave him a true revelation!!
What he is looking for is the outpouring of hatred, the joy of battle. And finally...... Redemption !!
-- Your rod and whip have soothed me. Thou hast made a feast for me before my enemies. Put oil on my head, and the cup of blessing overflowing will make grace with me forever.
Tongues of fire scurried down the walls to the ceiling. The signpost to purgatory invites two men.
They march silently and in high spirits. Without hesitation, walk towards the dueling arena.
So, they came across a large prop warehouse on the basement floor, directly below the stage.
On the other side of the billowing black smoke, Emiya Kiritsugu saw a slender figure in a vestment.
On the other side of the steaming heat, Yan Fengqili saw the black coat of his old enemy.
The light of the black key in his hand reflected the light of the body of the magic spear.
Both of them were aware of the killing intent, and each had already realized the blazing fierceness.
Then, there is no longer a need for words of communication.
The two finally looked directly at each other, and they understood a conclusion at the same time.
Seven Masters. Seven Servants. Those are nothing more than so-called "conditions".
For Emiya Kiritsugu, this war is-
For Yan Feng Qili. The entire battlefield of Fuyuki City is-
Everything exists to defeat the enemy in front of you.
In the flames, the blade of the sword jumped.
Three on the left, three on the right, the agent pulled out a total of six black keys and drove up.
The Assassin's Spear's crosshair was aimed at the shadow of the approaching wind.
Here and now, the final showdown began silently.
……
"Is there really no problem with us just hanging out at home and watching the play?" Li Baifeng seemed a little bored and asked.
Hermione said calmly: "No problem, although you have a little combat power." However, they can only be compared to the weakest Heroic Spirits, and those who can go to the end of the Holy Grail War are not easy to deal with. ”
The limitations of the biochemical system are like this, don't look at Li Baifeng's current biochemical strength, but the more he grows up, the more difficult it is.
Internal forces are also a good system though. But the current Li Baifeng has only reached the level of Zhongwu at most.
In the end, although Li Baifeng began to learn the magic system, she had just started. It's still too much to do, let alone integrate all the systems.
Although her talent is extremely high. But what is missing is time, if she is given enough time to grow. Maybe......
In short, the current Li Baifeng is still far away from participating in the final battle.
To be honest, even Li Amen himself was very reluctant, he was able to participate in the fact that he was more blessed by the personality of the heroic spirit of the Moon World, and if he left the Moon World, he was probably no better than his daughter.
Moreover, Li Amen went to send him to death, so he didn't care about his combat effectiveness.
And Li Baifeng, she doesn't have the heart to die.
However, she really found it boring.
They were able to observe all the battlefields here, which was a means that Li Amen had arranged in advance.
The battle between the night of the wild goose and Tosaka Tosaka was full of bugs and flames, and this was the most boring battle for Li Baifeng.
The battle of his own father is mainly isolated from the inherent barrier, and it is not clear from the outside.
As for the battle between the female knight and the mad dog, that kind of battle is not very interesting, and Li Baifeng, who has studied martial arts, can't look down on these two guys who rely more on talent and combat experience to fight.
Unlike Li Baifeng, Hermione is watching the battle between Yanfeng Qili and Emiya Kiritsugu, one of whom has the magic of transforming into flesh with magic power, and the other has the inherent enchantment-type magic of time that is dedicated to the flesh.
The biggest weakness of being a mage is the body, Hermione is not as talented as Li Baifeng, and she has the physical conditions for growth.
Hermione didn't learn any more about internal forces, or other systems. It would be fine to study the Touch Bypass, but if she really wanted to learn other systems, it was not what Hermione wanted, and she was going to specialize in the magic system.
That's why she pays more attention to what other worlds don't have, which is how to use magic to strengthen herself.
Ryunosuke is different from the above two people who were summoned by Li Amen, but he is the one who observes all the battlefields the most, and pays the most attention to Li Amen's battlefield.
Because of his peculiarity, the power of faith, and the spell all connected him to Li Amen's perspective, so he was able to really see what was inside the inherent enchantment, and he saw the battle that Li Amen was involved in.
His role is no different from Weber's, he is the "witness of history" and "disseminator of legends" prepared by Li Amen.
Although this is different from the death that Ryunosuke has always been pursuing, it is also temporary.
Li Amen had already promised that one day he would summon Ryunosuke to another world and give him a chance to die.
This is also the reason why Ryunosuke was able to suppress all the excitement and then endure it all at once. (To be continued......)
