Chapter 400: The Holy Grail
Finally, the sixth Servant was also absorbed into Red's body.
"Uh-"
Red suddenly felt like the world was spinning, and for a moment it felt like his body was about to get out of control, and countless violent negative emotions wanted to eat away at Red's body.
In the Holy Grail War, although seven servants are generally summoned, in fact, because the rules are that the winning pair of master servants have the right to make wishes, when the sixth servant is defeated, the small chalice is already completed.
And Red absorbed all the magic power, spirit base, and soul of the six servants into his body, which was essentially equivalent to using his body as the carrier of the little chalice.
If it is an ordinary person, with the process of grailization, the emotions from the five senses will be gradually deprived, and finally completely transformed into a humanoid grail without feelings.
However, Red, as the embodiment of the red light of anger, certainly won't lose control of his body so easily.
But the negative energy in Xiang Yu's body is stronger than imagined, if this continues-
Suddenly, Red felt something cold and soft, pressing against his chest.
Suddenly, the chaotic and complex magic power in his body was suddenly straightened out slightly, and the spirit bases of the six servants were independent of each other and restrained each other, maintaining a relative energy balance, and Red breathed a sigh of relief.
"Poppy, you ......."
But when he saw who the person in front of him was helping him, Red still looked a little surprised.
"Don't get me wrong, I just don't want to see you rampage again, you perverted and shameless guy, I don't know what I'll do if I lose my mind."
The poppy glared at Red viciously, still looking full of resentment.
"I haven't forgiven you and I'm not going to forgive you...... But, for the sake of Ivrita, I won't think about revenge on you anymore. But don't rub your nose in your face, I'm absolutely—I will never have another child with you! ”
I didn't say I was going to have a second child with you, Red scratched his head with a smile, but he knew that now was not the time to discuss it.
"Alright, poppy, it's best if you're willing to help anyway, it's time for this farce to come to an end, it's time to wipe your ass for your previous waywardness."
The poppy's cheeks flushed, and her cheeks bulged and muttered.
"I don't need you to wipe it...... And I'm an elf, and I won't need ......."
But Red didn't pay attention to the poppy, he drove the red light energy to the top of the tower.
The poppy also followed, and with a casual wave of her hand with a complicated face, Diana and Noknarai, who had been hanging in mid-air, both fell.
Flutter –
Red's eyes were quick, he hugged both girls one by one, and then gently lowered them to the ground, Nokana Rei didn't seem to regain consciousness so quickly, her eyes closed and her mouth let out a dreamy whisper of meaninglessness, and Diana's long eyelashes moved, and her eyes soon gradually opened.
"Thunder...... Reed? Here it is...... Ahem, by the way, be careful, that kid is dangerous-"
"Efriita is not dangerous at all, she is innocent from beginning to end."
The poppy said in a calm voice, but she didn't know when, and she had already held Efriita in her arms.
The young fire elf, now leaning happily into his mother's arms, seemed to be sleeping soundly.
Red narrowed his eyes, although he didn't know how much of the previous incident was Ivrita's own will, and how much was due to the influence of the poppy, but it didn't matter anymore.
"Nokana Rei...... Ahem, isn't it a queen anymore...... In that case, then I'll give back my power—"
"There's no need for that, Diana, for your power has a much more important purpose."
Red took a deep breath and gently pressed his hand on Diana's forehead.
A hint of panic flashed in the latter's eyes, but when she came into contact with Red's determined and sincere gaze, the doll Diana's nervous expression relaxed.
"Can you be sure...... You can save Noknari, right? ”
A sly and mysterious smile appeared on Red's lips.
"No, I'm going to save everyone."
——
Every choice made by each person may create a parallel world, but these worlds are often very fragile, like the bubble of Nanke's dream, and will not last.
Unless......
Rumble.
The space was torn open with a gaping hole, and a tall tower stood above the barren land.
It was a world that had been destroyed, there was no living creature in sight, there was not a single plant on the Gobi-like land, and the earth was completely occupied by a terrifying dead silence.
"Is this the ......?"
Ash seemed to have recovered from the weakness of the lack of energy, and she stood up with her staff supporting her body, looking at the completely lifeless wilderness in front of her, her expression was very complicated.
Red had told her about the plan before, so Ash immediately realized what the hell was here.
"That's right, this is another parallel world, a world that Britain has destroyed...... A world of failed messians. ”
Red looked up at the sky, which had always been orange-yellow like dusk, but now it was as red as blood.
He knew exactly why this was happening.
This is a parallel world created in the total energy of the red light, and if you keep flying into the sky and forcibly break through the world barrier, you will definitely rush into the chair of Möbius, which is the total energy source of the red light.
"What do you want to do? Wait, if you're going to change the future—"
The poppy's face changed as if she had thought of something, and she looked at Red with some uneasiness, but Red seemed to have already guessed her thoughts.
"Don't worry, it's all in my plan...... I said, I want to protect both worlds in the future and the past. ”
Red raised his hand and focused.
"It's literal."
I saw that in front of Red, a magic array automatically expanded, and a figure slowly formed and appeared from the dazzling magic light.
"The Servant, Berserker, Morgan Le Fay, has answered the call...... Excuse me. ”
A figure dressed in a rich black robe, with white hair and a staff, appeared in front of everyone.
Her appearance is very similar to that of Artoria and Ash, but she has a completely different cold aura.
"Are you my master?"
Seeing this servant, Red grinned and showed a satisfied smile.
Sure enough, as he speculated, in this world, it was not Baryl who summoned Morgan at all.
"Nice to meet you, Morgan the Witch, but I'm going to say that the Holy Grail War is over."
Redgao raised his right hand, and the black lines followed his heart to his arm and then to his palm, and the black clay-like substance began to condense rapidly.
"Let's jump right into the wishing session."
——
There are two questions that Red has been most unclear about the comparison between the British Persona Belt he experienced and the content of the original work.
First, why doesn't Oberon exist?
This question was later answered, and the curse and magic that made up Oberon were used by the poppies to summon Artoria Alter, so it was natural that neither the King of Morse nor the Elven King Oberon Vantigen would be born again.
Second, Who summoned Morgan?
At first, Red thought that it was like the original plot, and Beryl came to this Persona Belt to summon Morgan according to the instructions of Group A's mission - however, judging from the fact that Ash did not obtain Morgan's memories at all, the situation seems to be a little different.
No matter how Red cultivated Ash and how he made Ash a queen, but without Morgan's memory, Ash is still another person after all, not to mention that due to Red's interference, Ash is very different from Morgan in terms of mood and ability.
In this case, it is hard to imagine that she will grow into the ruthless queen of the future world.
That's when Red came up with a solution.
Since there is no answer to this question......
Isn't it okay for me to make up an answer?
Red's real goal is actually very simple, which is to transform the original problem of time paradox into a parallel world problem that can be solved more simply, crudely and directly.
Since the world he is in is no longer able to connect with the future world...... It doesn't matter, he just needs to find a parallel world and forcibly connect it to the future.
In other words, let the British Persona Belt of two different eras become a state of coexistence.
Of course, this is not easy in practice, not to mention how much magic it takes to forcibly cross over to a parallel world, and more importantly, there may be different situations in the parallel world...... It tends to get more and more complicated in the end.
But if Red chooses a Britain that has been destroyed...... That's a lot easier.
Since Britain is already in a state of destruction, no matter how much time passes, it will not change, and Red can create a future script from scratch.
Of course, the amount of magic required to traverse is also an important issue.
Originally, according to Red's idea, it was supposed to collect mana from the people and elves of the entire British Persona Belt through the existence tax and store it, and then Red continued to accumulate red light energy to prepare enough mana to cross over.
But the Holy Grail War, which was premised on destruction, created by the poppies, hastened Red's plan in a sense.
Due to the projection of the Star Sea, the boundaries of the world here are fragile, allowing Red to forcibly take the entire tower with him.
And then the power of the Holy Grail ...... Now it's ready.
Morgan stared at the created chalice in Red's hand, his expression slightly subtle.
"This thing, to be honest, is a little ugly."
It's no wonder Morgan would make such an assessment, after all, the "Holy Grail" in Red's hand is indeed very ugly, with countless weird red twisted lines on the cup, and the black mud inside is constantly boiling.
"That's right, after all, it's a cup of destruction created with the power of curse and calamity, and I'm afraid that no matter what you ask, your wish will be fulfilled on the premise of destroying Britain."
Red said lightly, this side effect was unacceptable in the original world, but not necessarily here.
Morgan also looked very smart, she glanced at the people around her, and finally her gaze fell on ash for a long time, and then said softly and slowly.
"I understand, then I'll start making a wish."
Morgan stretched out his hand, and his slender fingers lightly touched the wall of the Holy Grail.
"My wish is...... My own British goblin country. ”
Gollum - boom!
The chalice in Red's hand began to make an unpleasant sound like mud boiling, and Red narrowed his eyes and let go of his hand to let the chalice float into the sky on its own.
Soon, the Grail began to expand and deform, eventually turning into a black hole-like object, and then countless black mud was released from the black hole.
The black mud was like hot lava, devouring everything as soon as it hit the ground, and spreading unstoppably to the surrounding area.
This is the malice stored in the Black Grail, if you make a wish in the original world, I am afraid that this black mud will turn the whole of Britain into a place of death, and all living things will be devoured.
But it doesn't matter here.
After all, in this world, there are no more lives that can be destroyed by black mud.
But interestingly, this black mud is not completely unstoppable, in fact, although the tower where Red and the others are located and the black sun that releases the black mud are close at hand, but these black mud can not cause any damage to the tower, and all of them can watch the scenery from the tower unharmed without worrying about being accidentally injured by the black mud.
"It's the magic of the court...... When I was first summoned, I thought it was in Avalon, after all, it was the magic I used to trap Merlin. ”
Morgan's voice was calm, and she looked thoughtfully at the tower beneath her feet.
"Well, this tower is actually a replica of the one used to trap Merlin in Avalon, but now it has been reinforced with red light energy, and it should still be able to barely hold on to this time before Britain is completely destroyed."
Morgan pursed her lips, then stopped talking, and she paced up to Ash, staring at her otherworldly counterpart.
"Tell me your name."
Ash looked up and met Morgan's eyes, and after a moment she sighed softly.
"I'm you...... But not Morgan, I'm Ash, it's Vivien, it's Britannia...... Another Queen of Britain. ”
Due to the fact that her magic was almost drained just now, Ash's hair color has changed from the original light blonde to a white color similar to Morgan's, except for her eyes, which still retain a part of gray-green, she is almost indistinguishable from Morgan in appearance.
Of course, there is one of the biggest differences between her and Morgan......
"Clothes...... Not bad. ”
Morgan stared at Ash for a long time, and after a moment, he held back these words.
"Well, yes, it was Red and Trotter who did it for me."
"Oh? It turns out that my master still has this specialty...... It looks like we're going to have to ask him for some greeting gifts later. ”
Hearing Morgan's words, Red shuddered for some reason.
It seems that you have to be careful, this is a pure pan-human history Morgan, and I don't know how bad her personality will be compared to Ash.
But at this moment, the black mud on the ground seemed to be slowly subsiding, and this curse came and went quickly, and because there was no target that could infect the transformation, the tide soon began to ebb.
The black sun in the sky seemed to be slowly closing because the black mud was almost gone...... Then condense into one point.
When this point is reduced to the most extreme, it lights up with a dazzling golden light.
It seems that the true Holy Grail is only now beginning to fulfill its wishes.
