Chapter 739 Return to peace
Dressed in black and wearing tactical gloves, the black-haired boy walking in the dark alley is quite handsome, but his faintly pale face and the bright red color on his lower abdomen covered by his palms prove that he has suffered serious injuries.
His name is Sigma, one of the magicians that Faldius brought to Fuyuki this time, and the person who sniped Emiya Kiritsugu before.
He was hiding well at first, but the return of Hercules forced him to take risks and escape, and he would not be able to escape if he didn't leave early. As a result, Emiya Kiritsugu shot him back. Although he used magic to defend and avoid his vital points, the power of the sniper rifle still caused him to lose a lot of blood.
Fortunately it's not fatal yet.
"Emiya Kiritsugu... is very powerful."
Sigma has a close relationship with Emiya Kiritsugu. He is the son of Kuu Maiya.
Kuu Maiya was born in a war-torn country and was trained as a soldier since he was a child. In that kind of place, human life is as cheap as paper, and there are no laws, rules, or even normal human ethics.
Women with magic talents will be used as fertility machines to give birth to magician seeds. Sigma did not know who his father was, and he was taken away from Kuu Maiya after he was born. Everything that happened after that happened to him when he was six or seven years old. I learned this through other people’s reports.
Sigma is envious of his mother Kuu Maiya, who was saved by Emiya Kiritsugu and can follow Emiya Kiritsugu according to her own will.
For Emiya Kiritsugu, the person who 'took away' his mother, he had no real feelings of hatred due to his special upbringing. However, this time he was assigned to deal with Emiya Kiritsugu, and he did have some different kinds of mood swings, probably... Just want to try it.
This is also the first time he has met Emiya Kiritsugu, the man his mother follows... he is indeed very good, right?
Following the instructions from his superiors, Sigma hid all the way back to the prison base. After entering the instructions to open the door, Sigma, who had been adopted by a mercenary organization since childhood, suddenly felt wary.
"Where are the guards?"
Touching the pistol at his waist, the Sigma Tactical Stepper took a few steps forward. Using the mirror reflection of the gun, he immediately turned around and ran away.
It wasn't until he ran one kilometer away from the base and entered an alley that Sigma took a breath and sat down softly, leaning against the wall.
Was the base found and completely destroyed? Is Lord Faldius still alive? It would be very dangerous to encounter an enemy that could invade the base in this state. The wound has burst again. If this amount of blood loss is not dealt with in time, there may be a risk of death... Maybe it would be good to die like this?
His consciousness gradually faded, and Sigma, who had always had a weak sense of reality, thought of a strange question at this moment - if my mother knew that I died like this, would she feel sorry for me?
Ah, she probably wouldn't know.
Sigma slowly tilted his head and fell into coma.
Two minutes later, two figures appeared in this dark alley.
The flame of the cigarette was flickering. Aozaki Orange shook his head and said: "He ran pretty fast."
It was Bazett who was following him. Two masters from different sides who were rivals before were acting at the same time, but it was not surprising. After all... their heroic spirits were all gone.
Other people's heroic spirits were disconnected and reconnected, but their spearmen couldn't connect. In fact, if they were to compete normally, Cu Chulainn and Diarmuid should be able to determine the winner. Cu Chulainn would most likely be stronger, but that was a special situation before.
It’s almost gone anyway. If you don’t use the desperate fighting method, how can you be ruthless?
Whoever defends in that state is the grandson! The result is very good, the network is reconnected, but the connection is no longer possible.
After withdrawing from the Holy Grail War in this slightly absurd and unfortunate way, they did not fight. After all, there is no hatred at all, and Aozaki Orange is not the designated target of the seal now.
On the contrary, Aozaki Orange had some thoughts.
Bazett has good standards and a 'very honest' personality. It seems a pity to continue working for the Clock Tower, so it is better to kidnap him.
So he told Bazett what he had discovered before, and as soon as he heard that the United States was involved in the Holy Grail War, Bazett became serious and came here with Aozaki Orange to investigate.
As a result, it was found that someone had arrived first, and there was nothing to be gained from exploring the prison base. They only waited until Sigma - what Sigma had seen through reflection before was none other than Aozaki Yuko's doll.
"Young soldier...or mercenary?" Bazett observed the young man's immature face and said, "We must help him stop the bleeding as soon as possible."
"Yes." Aozaki Orange responded nonchalantly: "It seems to have good qualities and a familiar taste. Let's take it away first."
…
In Emiya Kiritsugu's safe house.
The index and middle fingers of his right hand were wrapped with bandages, and his cheek was disinfected and covered with gauze. After taking care of his own injuries, Emiya Kiritsugu listened to Illya recounting everything he saw tonight and the special circumstances.
Lost in thought at the moment.
As the 'son-in-law' of the Einzbern family, he is also very familiar with the Holy Grail system. The disconnection and reconnection instantly made him have some guesses and verified more ideas.
The witch Medea is indeed a powerful magician, but as the celestial monarch among the twelve monarchs of the Clock Tower, Marisbili has extremely strong financial resources. Even Kenneth ten years ago was able to prepare the King of Conqueror and the King of Conqueror. Diarmuid's holy relic, Maris had more time to prepare, so how could he just come up with a Medea?
But after this point was verified, another doubt emerged - who was the magician who killed Arjuna in an instant?
Obtaining the power of Black Archer, possessing the level of water magic that can change the concentration of water vapor to create a rain, and being able to use such great magic as 'artificial sun' without going through a ritual... Even with what Emiya Kiritsugu has seen, he has never heard of it. Pass!
Are there really such powerful magicians in the world today? An old monster that survived the Age of Gods?
The difficulty of this Holy Grail War always feels higher than the last time. There are people from all sides, the conspiracy of the Clock Tower, the joining of national mercenaries, and another magician who is more powerful than the heroic spirits has emerged... maybe it's time Going to meet King Arthur and talk to her master about forming an alliance?
I don’t know if she still has the memory of the last ‘betrayal’, and her master is a pure newcomer, so I’m afraid she won’t be able to avoid Tohsaka Rin and the King of Heroes.
how should I do it?
Seeing Kiritsugu lowering his head and remaining silent, thinking he was angry with herself, Illya pouted aggrievedly and whispered: "Kiritsugu, that nun is so despicable. She attacked Berserker and me, otherwise I would defeat them both. Those two..."
The more he spoke, the softer he spoke, but it still brought Emiya Kiritsugu back to his senses. He smiled and said, "Illya did a great job. I blame me for not making better arrangements. Illya is also a powerful magician. If I had trusted Illya more, I wouldn’t have achieved nothing tonight.”
"...Yes, it's all Kiritsugu's fault!" Even though she heard that this was 'coaxing the child', Illya still laughed because she knew that Emiya Kiritsugu would not blame her anymore, so she thought for a while and said : "But I'm serious, Kiritsugu. If I really face that hateful nun again, I will definitely defeat her!"
"Well, I believe in Illya." Emiya Kiritsugu nodded: "Okay, it's getting late, and Illya must be tired. There won't be any more fighting tonight, so go to bed early."
Things have already happened, and there is no point in blaming the child. Now that he has joined the Holy Grail War, Emiya Kiritsugu realizes that he is unable to completely protect Illya from behind. Correct guidance is a better choice than blind scolding... The once cold-blooded Magic really does make a perfect father.
Illya was really happy and said, "Well! I need to take a shower first. Although Berserker protected me from the rain, I still got a little wet."
Caught in the rain? Emiya Kiritsugu was in a trance for a moment, and he instantly stood up and touched the handle of the gun. It was his trump card weapon equipped with an origin bullet, but the next moment he saw four figures in the room.
Among them is the mysterious magician described by Illya who took away the power of Archer from Black.
The other three... Emiya Kiritsugu's heart sank rapidly: "How...is this possible?!"
Heracles had appeared next to Illya, and Illya was shocked by the scene in front of her. It was not until she noticed the figure of the old man with mixed red and white hair that suddenly appeared among the four that she spoke out. : "Abominable nun?!"
The nun was defeated, and even the heroic spirit Li Shuwen fell into his hands. The other two were Black Archer and the witch from last night? !
How is this done? !
However, the act of secretly marking Illya and suddenly breaking into the safe house did not seem to be a good intention. Just when Emiya Kiritsugu was about to give it a try, Hayakawa Killer spoke: "We haven't seen each other for ten years. It seems that you have listened carefully to what I said. , her temperament has become much softer, and she loves her daughter very well."
Emiya Kiritsugu paused, eyes widening.
"Who are you……?!"
"Penglai Gunslinger Sanren, Tong Yuan." Ji Xing said directly: "I don't want to kill this little nun, it's not convenient to kill her, and I can't let her go directly. I can only rest assured if you take care of her. The time is up to the Holy Grail. The war is over."
Really... Emiya Kiritsugu felt that he should have thought of it a long time ago. Such an unusual situation should have reminded him of the person from the last time, but at the same time, his heart was still in turmoil - even though he knew that the person who died ten years ago had died. Ta couldn't have died, he must still be alive somewhere, but he never expected that he would appear in such a way.
A powerful human magician?
Wait... "Hayakawa Tatehoshi?"
"Guessed it right."
Emiya Kiritsugu's heart was shaken again.
In the tall building in the distance, Astraea looked at the scene with her arms in her arms, her eyes hovering over Ji Xing F4 and Hercules.
To send nuns here? I believe you are a ghost!
There is still one empty attribute missing from the five major attributes, the 'ether' that shapes the body of the heroic spirit. No matter how suitable it is for Hercules, I think you have already made plans and plans! But... what to do? !
…
Hyatt Regency Hotel, top floor.
"Caster, the Magic King, others don't know the details of that magician, but you can definitely see through it, right?" Marisbili didn't even pay much attention to the King of Heroes at the moment. When King Solomon returned, he immediately asked.
Solomon gave a negative answer.
"Then...is he Tong Yuan from ten years ago?!" Marisbili felt a slight chill on his back and asked the question he was most concerned about.
"My clairvoyance cannot see into his past and future. I can only know that he is a life different from our heroic spirits and humans." Solomon replied: "If the Tong Yuan you know has the same characteristics, then maybe it is. .”
How could I know!
Marisby was silent. Ten years ago, he was a spectator, and his clothes were stripped to check the magic mark... Wait, check the magic mark?
That guy checked the magic seals of so many magicians. Although it was useless according to common sense, how could he estimate it according to common sense?
The magician...the magic king can't even figure it out...it must be that person!
The memory of being like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered and facing the gods was too deep, and Maris Billy's back started to feel cold again. Even the Magic King in front of him couldn't make him feel relieved... Contacting the clock tower, Tong Yuan reappeared, Definitely contact the Clock Tower!
…
Tohsaka family.
"The king has not refused you to come and watch my heroic appearance in battle. You must have known about the battle between the king and Solomon. The time is 11 days later, February 2, a winter night. Before that, you must also send yourself Adjust to the best condition.”
Gilgamesh raised his head slightly and said to Tohsaka Rin: "Little girl, I haven't seen what you said about 'giving effective suggestions', and I don't expect the bastard to be of much help, but At least don’t drag me down, can you do that?”
This guy... really wants to be hit with fists every time he speaks!
The corners of Tohsaka Rin's eyes twitched slightly, thinking that Gilgamesh's performance tonight was really amazing, he temporarily tolerated it: "Don't worry, there will be no omissions on my side, but on you, don't lose to the Magic King in a shameful way. grown ups!"
"I correct you again. The only one who can be king in this world is me, even Solomon!" Gilgamesh just snorted lightly and said: "In addition, during the decisive battle, I don't want to be disturbed by mice, so give The purpose of summoning Arthur with the Noble Phantasm was not to let her hide until the end. Come and contact us, the king will summon them here tomorrow."
Tachiboshi-san... Tohsaka Rin hesitated for a moment and muttered: "Why are you putting on airs... The situation over there seems to be very complicated, and it would be too dangerous for him to go out. Can't we go there?"
…
The situation at Weber Base is indeed complicated.
The network is reconnected and people are alive.
Sociality is dead.
In the bedroom, Mordred, who had just tidied up, threw his head into the quilt, squirmed wildly, and twisted into a maggot on the bed. His face buried in the quilt was so red that it could boil water.
Suddenly he heard a knock on the door, almost teleporting. Mordred lay down and covered himself with the quilt in a second, coughed and said: "Well, come in."
Arturia walked in, looked at Mordred pretending to be dead with his eyes closed, and smiled slightly. Climbing onto the bed, she reached out and tidied Mordred's messy hair.
Mordred's face instantly turned red again.
"W-what are you doing! Two men, doing this, isn't it disgusting?!"
Artoria just smiled: "Do you want me to hold you to sleep, Mordred?"
"...What the hell do you want?!" Mordred turned over frantically and shrank into the corner.
"Hahahaha..." Arturia laughed rarely, because she was really happy tonight.
Weber in the next room was in a normal mood.
"Another night of nothing, the mysterious magician, the Magic King Solomon finally took action, the astonishingly powerful King of Heroes..."
"Webber, stop thinking about it and go to sleep!" The voice of the King of Conqueror suddenly came from the bed next door.
Weber was startled, shook his head to clear his mind, and soon loud snoring sounded... Oh, how can I sleep without thinking about these things?
Shishi Jie felt like he couldn't sleep.
He was very happy to watch tonight's drama, but when he was sleeping alone in the dead of night, he felt a huge emptiness and sadness.
That's great, the 'father and son' duo.
If my adopted daughter had not died, I wouldn't have gone to Fuyuki to get acquainted with these people, right? He asked the moonlight outside the window, well, that child is much better behaved than Mordred.
Next door, Ji Xing has no intention of sleeping.
At this point in the Holy Grail War, many things were not as he expected. What he was looking forward to was that it took the past week or so to reach the current situation, but the conflict between various forces and Arjuna's call forced him to take action in advance.
Now that Xingzang has been revealed, he must acquire enough power in one wave. The "four-star heroic spirit that will soon become a five-star" is already a considerable force. With him, he can control it far more than other Masters, or even The heroic spirit himself is stronger.
But with this power and his true body, he can be worthy of most situations, as long as he doesn't kill other people's base camp and be surrounded like ten years ago.
But what made him a little strange was the position of Magic King Solomon - if others didn't know what Ji Xing was doing, Solomon definitely knew? Why hasn’t there been any interference so far?
But Ji Xing didn't bother to think about its purpose.
As long as he is strong enough, there is a smooth road ahead. Even if Solomon can obtain the crown spiritual foundation, it will be over if a nuclear fusion is burned for him!
Medea's knowledge of divine magic.
Illya's magic circuit structure.
Bacteria throughout the body begin to work, and a new round of transformation has begun in Ji Xing's body!
He will practice all night tonight.
"The next battle should be the decisive battle."
4k7, just overdo it. There will be two updates tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Please vote for me in the last two days at the end of the month!
