Weiyuan Chuanhe Center.
In the current collision between Saber and Jin Shining, it seems that Saber has the upper hand.
Without covering the sword body with the Wind King's barrier, the indestructible Sword of Victory slashed away the Noble Phantasms that were shot at her, causing sparks to fly and the river to explode into waves.
Even if she is scratched or stabbed by a sword, the effect of the secluded Utopia will keep her from bleeding, and her injuries will recover quickly.
With her majestic courage and sword dance like falling leaves, her sword edge kept approaching Jin Shining. She touched the golden armor several times and even injured Jin Shining's body. Jin Shining could only rely on Hui Zhou. Just deal with it.
Once again, it came to Jin Shining's back, but at the critical moment, it was blocked and deflected by the city wall-like Noble Phantasm that appeared behind it. Saber calmed down her breathing slightly, her expression serious.
“Not even close…”
"Almost? Don't get carried away, bastard." Jin Shining smiled indifferently.
To him, this battle was just an after-dinner entertainment. He was sure of victory from the beginning, so he would not be tired or nervous. He was just worried about defeating Saber quickly and spending time waiting for Ji Xing to recover.
How could the king wait?
“If you think about it this way…dodge well, and if you’re lucky, you’ll only get pierced through your hands and feet.”
Weapons are increasing and filling the sky!
Previously, Jin Shining’s attack only used more than 20 weapons at the same time, but at this moment, the number increased several times! An exaggerated number of Noble Phantasm spaces are spread out behind, waiting for the master's orders!
Saber tightened her grip on the Sword of Victory.
“This amount…”
The rain of swords fell at a lightning speed!
The sword came from the front, the gun came from the left wing, the hammer roared from below and above at the same time, the three blades sneaked up from behind in an arc, and the giant ax that was taller than her was crushing her!
It can be avoided, but it will consume a lot of energy.
With the scabbard back, and Kiritsugu's magic power, I can probably use it five times.
Facing the intensive attacks, Saber raised her sword with both hands. The rich magic power was concentrated at the tip of the sword, and turned into light under the transformation of the Noble Phantasm!
“Ex—calibur!”
She loudly recited the name of the sword that promised victory in her hand, and the noble phantom was released. The vast magic power like a beam of light was released from the blade of the sword she swung, destroying everything in front of her indiscriminately!
The noble phantom shot by Jin Shining was swallowed up, and the river in front was also split in half!
Boundless waves rolled toward a height of 100 meters, half of the sky was lit up with blazing golden fire, a terrifying roar exploded, and overwhelming power expanded.
Rumble--in Jin Shining's slightly surprised eyes, the magnificent golden light seemed to swallow up his Huizhou together with the heaven and earth!
With this rolling roar, the bang of the sniper rifle was not very obvious, and the sound of the tip of Ji Xing's gun being bounced off was not even noticed by Irisviel and Webber.
Ji Xing stood up, swiped his gun to split the incoming river water, looked at the building in the distance, smiled, and left in a flash, leaving Irisviel and Webb, who were paying close attention to the battle, to look at them in surprise.
At the same time, in Tosaka Tokiomi's magic workshop, he gritted his teeth and answered the ringing phone.
…
Tokiomi Tosaka was never a genius.
Compared to previous members of the Tosaka family, his magic qualifications can only be said to be mediocre.
He has grown to this level. Even Kenneth gave him a rating of 'barely considered a qualified magician' when judging the level of magicians participating in the Holy Grail War. It was all due to his hard work day after day. .
He always accepts and remembers the ancestral precepts of the Tohsaka family, taking winning the Holy Grail War as his own mission, and aiming to reach the root of magic!
Having an indomitable will, one can always be calm and graceful under all kinds of cruel training.
But the Holy Grail War, which summoned the King of Heroes and should have left him calm, made him lose his cool many times as it developed.
Although Sakura’s experience is very sad, Tosaka Tokiomi is actually a ‘good father’.
For Tohsaka Rin and Matou Sakura, they had no choice from the beginning.
One of them has full elements and quintuple core attributes, and the other has imaginary elements and imaginary attributes. Coupled with the same eighty excellent magic circuits, both of them possess magic talents that are equivalent to miracles.
Kenneth, who has eighty-three magic circuits, was moved after checking Matou Sakura's circuits and wanted to take her as a maid. But at that time, he didn't know about Sakura's imaginary number attributes. When the two are combined, it would even surpass Kenneth's. Talent.
In layman’s terms, the two women are worthy of the title!
But the Tosaka family's secret technique and the magic seal passed down from generation to generation can only be passed down to one person. In other words, one of the two geniuses will have to be mediocre.
And the devil will definitely provoke the devil. People with that kind of qualifications will not live a peaceful life. If they are discovered by some magicians with evil intentions, they will not even mind soaking her in formalin for research.
Matō Zouken’s request was a great blessing for Tokiomi Tohsaka. It was a way to get the best of both worlds. It was the only chance for both daughters to pursue the path of magic and find the root cause.
He didn't consider Sakura's thoughts or Matou Zouken's methods, but his starting point was indeed for her own good. In the days after Sakura left, he was also so sad that he couldn't sleep all night.
When he learned that Zouken was killed by Ji Xing and Sakura was missing, his heart was not as calm as he showed in front of Kotomine Kirei.
Now, he is about to make a choice that will make his heart fry in strong oil.
No, there is no taking, just giving.
The Tosaka family's pursuit spanning two hundred years, the Holy Grail that is so close at hand, and the common source within reach, is it more important than the daughter who has not yet grown up, or the genius who has not yet grown up? !
There is no need to judge at all.
The daughter can regenerate, and there is even a chance to bring Sakura back now!
The root can only be touched this time!
"Tosaka Tokiomi, I thought you wouldn't answer the phone." The voice coming from the other side of the receiver was a little hoarse and indistinguishable, as if it had been deliberately changed, "You should have guessed who I am and what I want to do. Are you here? Do you want to hear the voice of your daughter, Tohsaka Rin?"
“…not necessary.”
"Then do as I say. Of the three command spells in your hand, the first one is used to let the King of Heroes kill Tong Yuan, and the second and third ones control the King of Heroes to commit suicide. Now, immediately."
“…It is indeed you, Emiya Kiritsugu.”
"You don't need to care about who I am. Do as I say now. I have to say that your daughter is very cute and courageous. She is still looking at me with her big eyes. You don't want me to... Did they dig them out?"
Tokiomi Tosaka sneered.
Ah, then just do this.
A short sentence, a sentence that has been prepared a long time ago, a sentence that is decided to be spoken with the usual calm and calm attitude, a sentence that can definitely defeat the will of the despicable enemy.
Tosaka Tokiomi was unable to speak.
His mouth was open like a fish out of water, and it was beginning to be difficult for him to breathe.
Can’t say it.
At the other end of the conversation, facing Rin Tosaka who was gagged and whose eyes were looking as if he was eating someone, Kotomine Kirei had a pleasant smile on his lips.
Teacher, you didn’t expect it was me, right?
I would never have thought that the place where I tied your daughter is only two buildings away from you.
So...how would you choose? Kotomine Kirei could guess it and was looking forward to it.
Not only was he looking forward to the pleasure of seeing Tokiomi Tokiomi's soul collapse, but he was also looking forward to the scene before him... He covered the receiver and smiled at Rin Tosaka: "What do you think the teacher will choose?"
Tohsaka Rin paused for a moment, the ferocious look on his face briefly turned into panic, and then quickly covered up his ferocious look, except for the tears in the corners of his eyes.
…
Emiya Kiritsugu leaned against the wall, his heart so tense that he seemed to have stopped breathing.
Until the phone rang, he seemed to have regained his human body functions, his whole person came to life, and he answered the phone in one second.
“Maiya, how are you?”
“He is by my side.” Kuu Maiya’s voice was still so calm.
But Emiya Kiritsugu knew that she had just walked on the edge of death - the first difficulty she had to go through before shooting to attract Ji Xing was that the other party did not give a chance to communicate and killed Maiya instantly.
Facing the heroic spirits, Maiya will never be spared.
"Give him the phone, Maiya." Emiya Kiritsugu explained. When Ji Xing's voice said, "What do you want me to do for you?", he said: "I am Emiya Kiritsugu, Irisviel's husband, King Arthur. , the true master of Saber."
“I know, what next?”
"That couple, and that girl." Emiya Kiritsugu was silent for a moment, then said: "The girl you took away from the Matou family, I planted bombs that could destroy everything around the house. If you don't want it to explode, Just help Saber defeat the King of Heroes, and then voluntarily withdraw from the Holy Grail War."
In the situation where Maiya's life was spared that time in the restaurant, this was an extremely despicable act, and it was also dancing on the edge of a knife. If the other party threatened Maiya's life in return, he would have to abandon Maiya. Emiya Kiritsugu hated being like this in his heart, but it was different from before the phone call. He was calm now.
For the sake of all mankind, in order to save more people, a few people can be given up. This is what he has always insisted on. It was the first time that he did not kill his childhood sweetheart and led to the death of the whole village. The second time he chose to kill his adoptive mother. ', the teacher-like Natalia established the creed and principles of life when disaster strikes!
It is difficult to have the best of both worlds in life. After experiencing various realistic blows, the idealistic man decided to be the weigher of this scale, even if in order to save the tray with more people, he had to abandon the tray with fewer people, and even humanity!
At the next moment, what made him a little uneasy was that Ji Xing on the other side of the phone was not angry or impatient. He just asked him: "Why don't you find Kenneth? I'm just a servant."
“…Although it is incredible, judging from various traces, I am afraid that you will not obey, or even that Kenneth cannot order you.”
“Smart. Then why do you think this threat will be useful?” Ji Xing asked again.
"Because... you are a 'good person'. You saved the girl and chose a good foster family for her. You carefully searched for the murderer and Caster who killed Fuyuki and prevented a bigger tragedy from happening. You wouldn't want to Your actions implicated that old couple."
Emiya Kiritsugu was both explaining and psychologically oppressing him, but he didn’t expect that laughter suddenly came from the other side: “A good person should be pointed at a gun?”
He didn't understand what was so funny about this and said calmly: "Yes, although it is unfair, sometimes good people can only be pointed at a gun."
"That's okay, I'm not a good person." The voice on the other side was obviously smiling: "But I feel that you are. Don't do that, if your bomb explodes, I will massacre the entire Fuyuki City."
“…?!”
Emiya Kiritsugu's pupils suddenly dilated, and he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
The side with more people has changed! No, this guy is bluffing! Slaughter all the fuyuki? No, it’s impossible for him to do that, it’s impossible for him to dare to do that. The heroic spirit ‘Tong Yuan’ is not a vicious and murderous person!
But why... this voice is so cold.
…
“By the way, I almost forgot about them.”
Kirei Kotomine, who was covering the phone receiver, said something to Rin Tohsaka again, walked aside, and opened the huge vertical wardrobe.
The two figures emerging from it, the figures tied back to back, made Tohsaka Rin's eyes widen even more: "Uuuuuuuuuuuuah?! (Uncle Kariya! Mom?!
Not found, but kidnapped, not long after Tohsaka Rin was captured by him.
Because this is the best audience.
The two of them clearly heard his words. At this moment, Tohsaka Aoi looked defeated and desperate, and Tohsaka Rin's struggles did not restore her much 'vital energy'.
Matō Kariya struggled wildly, wishing he could bite Kotomine Kirei to death, and also wished he could kill Tokiomi Tokiomi who was on the other side of the phone.
They all guessed the choice Tokiomi Tosaka would make. One was unwilling to listen, and the other did not want Tohsaka Aoi and Tohsaka Rin to listen!
“It seems that no one who knows you has much confidence in you, teacher.” Kotomine Kirei murmured, taking his hand away from the receiver, and the cheerful smile on his lips became even brighter.
“It’s almost done, Tokiomi Tosaka.” He said: “The last three seconds.”
In the magic workshop, Tokiomi Tosaka's breathing suddenly became heavy, and beads of sweat broke out on his forehead.
"three."
In the distant river, the hero Wang Huizhou, who had escaped from the Saber Noble Phantasm in a panic, seemed a little angry with half of his wings destroyed.
"two."
He is about to take out EA, the most powerful treasure belonging to the King of Heroes, which will determine the outcome of the battle.
"one…"
"you win."
Tosaka Tokiomi said: "Don't hurt Rin, otherwise I will never let you go. I... will do what you say, I will."
As soon as he finished speaking, he fell to the ground as if he had lost all strength. The phone fell, his head was held in his hands, and his body kept twitching.
At the other end of the conversation, the phone in Kotomine Kirei's hand also dropped.
His eyes were wide open, and he couldn't believe what he heard. Matou Kariya, who also heard everything, was also stunned.
Tohsaka Aoi's face became alive, and Tohsaka Rin's held-back tears flowed down.
"…Why?"
Kotomine Kirei's joy disappeared, and he murmured in confusion while covering his empty chest: "Why would such a man make such a choice?"
…
“I don’t believe it, you won’t do it.”
On the roof of the rooftop, Emiya Kiritsugu’s questioning voice came from the phone, and Kuu Maiya looked at Ji Xing with a tense face.
Stop joking, just slaughter Fuyuki? !
“You are the master who represents the Einzbern family in the war. Do you know the history of the Einzbern family? For example, the Third Holy Grail War?”
At this time, Ji Xing suddenly said something off-topic on the phone, and Emiya Kiritsugu was silent for a moment.
"the third time?"
He knew a little bit. The Einzbern family summoned the weakest servant and only used soy sauce. In the end, the small Holy Grail carrier that maintained the stability of the Holy Grail died, and the Holy Grail War ended.
“During the Third Holy Grail War, the Einzbern family made an illegal summons and summoned a special class, Avenger.”
Ji Xing smiled and said: "The person wearing the Avengers class is the anti-hero, Angora Newman, a heroic spirit who only has special attacks against humans and cannot fight against other heroic spirits. Have you heard about him?"
Of course I learned about it when preparing for the Holy Grail War.
A tragedy in which "all the evil in this world" is endowed in order to prove the goodness of human beings.
Thinking of this, Emiya Kiritsugu's heart suddenly jumped: "You..."
"The Holy Grail will absorb the souls of the heroes who died in the Holy Grail War, and Angola Newman naturally did not escape." Ji Xing said: "He is too special, even the Holy Grail is contaminated."
"…What?"
"He wants to use the Holy Grail as a womb, truly be born in this world, and become a **** who bears all the evil in this world. The power of the Holy Grail has been distorted by 'all the evil in this world'. You will not be able to make a wish come true." expected."
"...What?" Emiya Kiritsugu repeated again, beads of sweat on his forehead: "I don't believe it... Judging from the way Matou Zouken is preparing for the Holy Grail War, even he doesn't understand this kind of thing, you It’s even more impossible to know!”
“Because I used a lot of magic power from the Holy Grail, and took the initiative to let go of my heart, and took the initiative to accommodate ‘all the evil in this world’.”
Ji Xing smiled and said, "Have you seen it from Saber's perspective? Forget about endurance, why do I have the magic power to kill an army of 35,000 people by myself? The person who provides me with magic power is not Kenneth, but his fiancée Suo pull."
"you…"
“I have just been gradually contaminated by all the evil in this world. And now my master Kenneth has taken 30 command spells from the church and is using them all on me. What do you think will happen?”
“…No, don’t! Stop! Are you crazy?!” Emiya Kiritsugu shouted in shock.
"Look, you believe it. Under normal circumstances, I really can't kill an entire city, but you must not provoke me now."
At the edge of the rooftop, under the horrified gaze of Kuu Maiya, Ji Xing's side face was covered with coquettish, dark purple and almost black magic lines!
"After all... I want to turn black." Ji Xing smiled, and Emiya Kiritsugu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
…
far away.
The panting Kenneth wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the tingling sensation in the magic circuits in his body gradually subsided, and he spat angrily.
"How crazy is it that you have to use the power of 30 command spells at the same time to kill two other heroic spirits in an instant? Only the great me can control that kind of magic power. Don't be overwhelmed, you idiot. That's it. What a big joke!”
After taking two rough breaths, he raised his head thoughtfully and looked at the sky in the distance.
The night seems to have become deeper.
“Huh? What are you doing...”
