With the help of the motorcycle that she had previously commissioned Kiritsugu Emiya to buy, Altria chased the enemy on the highway in Fuyuki City.
Fortunately, Kiritsugu Emiya used the Command Spell in time, allowing her to see the rider Iskandar who was driving the Kamui Wheel away at the first moment.
Although she couldn’t understand why the King of Conquerors would attack Irisviel, and why he would use such dishonest means, she didn’t have time to think and desperately chased forward.
However, in the process, she still lost the rider, but she still did not give up. She turned the handle desperately, determined to rescue Irisviel!
…
Faced with the sudden turn of events, the audience was thrown into confusion.
Obviously, most people didn't expect that Rider would suddenly appear, snatch Irisviel away, and even kill the assistant Maiya.
You know, although Iskandar did say before that he would compete with Saber, most people thought that this so-called competition should be an open and aboveboard, one-on-one battle. No one would have thought that the King of Conquerors would actually take such a sneak attack.
"This is not right. How could Iskandar use such a method to launch a sneak attack? It's not possible no matter how you think about it."
"Yes, given the character of this King of Conquerors, I would think it normal even if he just went straight to Altria and confronted her head-on. How could he resort to kidnapping?"
“I think that’s unreasonable.”
"… "
There is no doubt that the vast majority of viewers have seen the problems in the current plot.
The actions taken by Iskandar were too strange, and did not seem like actions that this heroic spirit would take in his normal state.
However, the figure that Altria saw snatching Irisviel away was indeed Irisviel without a doubt.
For this reason, people can only stop discussing it further and watch the plot develop quietly.
…
“Found it!”
After speeding on the highway for an unknown amount of time, Altria's keen sense of perception, like that of a bird of prey, finally detected the fluctuations of magic flying in the sky.
The opponent did not emit any lightning, and his speed was slightly slower than before. Maybe he did not want to be discovered by the crowd, but that feeling was indeed the rider's treasure.
So, she decisively chased after him, driving the motorcycle to the limit at an almost exaggerated speed, and the surrounding night scene flew behind her like a meteor.
On the other side, Iskandar and Waver, who were driving the God Wheel in the sky, also noticed Altria on the ground.
"Rider, look, that... is it chasing us?"
"Oh? I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be Saber. This saves me the trouble of looking for someone..."
As the two were talking, they were first surprised at the speed of the motorcycle driven by Altria, and then Iskandar decided to compete with the other in speed.
After a back and forth battle, Altria finally caught up with the other party, but what surprised her was another thing.
"Irisviel isn't here?"
All of a sudden, her originally hot brain cooled down quickly, and Altria immediately noticed many inconsistencies and weirdnesses in this incident.
However, before Altria could think further, Iskandar had already set his eyes on her.
The rider's intention was very clear and there was no need to speculate - he was going to attack.
For this reason, when faced with a duel where she had no choice but to engage in battle, Saber's gauntlet gripping the hilt made a tense sound.
On the other side, seeing that the two sides were about to clash, Weber became unable to sit still.
But Iskandar quickly calmed his master and said with a big laugh:
"I have seen that move of the sword of light by the river. The outcome of this competition is to see whether my Wheel of Divine Power can cross this distance in the time between Saber's stance and her move."
"Do you have a chance of winning? Rider."
"Well, it's half and half."
Although the King of Conquerors' behavior made people feel insecure, Waver rarely agreed with his actions.
"Go ahead, rider, and win in your own way."
"Hehe, kid, it seems that you finally understand what it means to be domineering."
Iskandar said this and roared:
"Glory is just around the corner - right now! The eternal journey has no end!!"
On the other side, seeing Iskandar's actions, Artoria immediately untied the Wind King's barrier, revealing the true brilliance of the Golden Sword.
"Sword of Promised Victory!"
The momentum of both sides suddenly reached its peak at this moment, and a huge amount of magic power swept over, illuminating the dark world into a snow-white color.
In the end, Altria's Sword of Promised Victory destroyed Iskandar's Wheel of Might first.
Although Iskandar jumped down in time holding Waver, it was an indisputable fact that his own Noble Phantasm was completely destroyed.
On the other side, seeing that the battle was about to break out, Altria immediately stopped her action, ignored Iskandar and Waver at the scene, and turned to rush towards Fuyuki City.
…
This part of the movie's plot is extremely exciting. The chase between the mighty wheels and motorcycles, and the head-on confrontation between Iskandar and Altria, can be said to have made most of the audience excited.
But after the excitement ended, bigger questions arose.
Who took Irisviel away? Who killed Hisau Maiya
After all, judging from the current plot of the movie, the King of Conquerors is clearly not someone who would do such a thing, and Irisviel is not in his hands.
This makes the truth of the incident even more confusing.
On the other side, in a corner of the cinema, Du Lin, who had seen the plot of the movie, looked at Chase beside him in confusion and asked:
"How was this scene filmed? I wasn't there at the time, so I don't know what happened."
Chapter 291: The final episode of "Fate Zero" is released! (Ten)
Chapter 291
Hearing Du Lin's question, Chase thought for a while and then slowly replied:
"I didn't participate in the situation at that time. It was all done with the help of Miss Leticia. Whether it was Altria's Noble Phantasm or the King of Conquerors' Divine Wheel, they all appeared naturally after she used some kind of magical magic."
"Is that so?"
Probably realizing that this was a special effect created by the terrifyingly powerful lich, Du Lin nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
As if she had heard the conversation here, Leticia, who was originally sitting aside watching the movie, slowly said:
"Boy, this level of magic is not a big problem for me, but if I keep using it, sooner or later someone will notice it. If that day really comes, I hope you can at least be mentally prepared."
Du Lin was stunned for a moment by Leticia's sudden remark, and then replied with a smile:
"Don't worry, I already have a general understanding of this matter."
"Really?"
Not knowing how much of what Durin said was true, Leticia didn't pay too much attention to it and just watched the movie patiently.
…
After the battle between Altria and Iskandar ended, the movie scene suddenly switched to a strange place.
On a building, Kotomine Kirei, Matou Kariya, and Kariya's servant, Berserker, were standing there.
“I didn’t expect that a real rider would appear... This is perfect. Matou Kariya, you are always blessed by the god of luck on the battlefield.”
In response to Kotomine Kirei's remarks, Kariya said with dissatisfaction:
"Father... is it really necessary to expend two Command Spells for such a small trick?"
In response, Kirei simply smiled and said:
“Don’t worry, Kariya. With my assistance, you can use up as many Command Spells as possible. You’re welcome—come on, stretch out your hand.”
As he spoke, Kirei held up Kariya’s shriveled arm, whose veins were bulging, and while chanting the Holy Word in a low voice, he gently stroked the remnants of the Command Seals with his fingers. Just this simple action made the already used Command Seals shine again, restoring them to the original three Command Seals.
"this… "
“I have already said it, Kariya, I have inherited the duties of the Overseer and have the power to distribute the Command Seals in the custody of the Church at will.”
"… "
Unable to understand Kotomine Kirei's intentions, Kariya looked at the silver-haired woman held in the berserker's hand.
Previously, it was he who used the Command Seal to transform the Berserker into the appearance of Rider Iskandar and captured it from the warehouse in Miyama Town.
Since there are some legendary stories about Berserkers pretending to be other people and performing martial arts feats during their lifetime, they have the ability to disguise themselves. Although because he is a Berserker, he cannot use this ability, Matou Kariya uses the Command Seals to reproduce it.
At this moment, Matou Kariya could feel the Berserker's obsession with the Saber Artoria, but he didn't care about it. Instead, he was more concerned about Irisviel who was captured by the other party.
"Is this woman really the Holy Grail vessel?"
"To be precise, it should be inside this doll. As long as one or two more slave spirits are destroyed, the true form will be revealed... I will perform the ritual of the Holy Grail's descent, and I will keep this woman in my care during this period."
Kotomine Kirei said with a smile:
"Don't worry, I will give you the Holy Grail as promised, because I have no reason to pursue a wish-granting machine."
"Before that, you should have promised me one more thing, Father."
"Ah? That matter? Of course no problem. Just come to the church at twelve o'clock tonight. I have already made arrangements for you to meet Tōsaka Tokiomi there."
"… "
His suspicion of Kotomine Kirei had not diminished in the slightest, but Matou Kariya no longer had any allies and could only place his hopes on this privileged priest.
…
After seeing the content in the movie, the audience's expressions suddenly became clear.
It was not until now that they finally realized that the rider who had kidnapped Irisviel was actually a berserker in disguise, and that Kotomine Kirei was the one manipulating it behind the scenes.
Of course, the audience is still somewhat confused about the Holy Grail container that Kotomine Kirei mentioned.
After all, until now, "Fate Zero" has not given an in-depth description of the nature of the Holy Grail, so the audience naturally has no idea what role Irisviel plays as the container of the Holy Grail.
In addition, Kotomine Kirei's attitude towards Matou Kariya also made people very confused. No one could understand why Kotomine Kirei wanted to help Matou Kariya.
This is obviously abnormal.
What's more, Kotomine Kirei said that he wanted to let Matou Kariya meet Tōsaka Tokiomi, but in fact, Tōsaka Tokiomi had already been killed by Kotomine Kirei himself.
Just when the audience was thinking about what Kotomine Kirei's purpose was and why he took Irisviel away, the content of the movie changed again.
…
When Matou Kariya and the berserker left, Kotomine Kirei suddenly said:
"I've already sent the people away. Although I don't know who you are, it's about time you show yourself."
“Haha, so you’ve already discovered it. As expected of an experienced agent, your keen sense is completely different from that brat Kariya.”
As he spoke, the head of the Matou family, Matou Zouken, slowly emerged.
Facing the mastermind behind the Matou family, whose name he only knew, Kotomine Kirei's consciousness gradually entered a state of preparation for battle.
However, Matou Zouken talked to him calmly.
The two first talked about Matou Kariya, but it was obvious that neither Kotomine Kirei nor Matou Zouken had any goodwill towards Matou Kariya.
In a sense, these two people are very similar in every way, and precisely because of their similarities, Kotomine Kirei's disgust for Matou Zouken is even deeper.
The communication between the two parties ended in a bad mood.
Then, the plot continued to develop and the time came to night.
Matou Kariya came to the church in Fuyuki City. In his opinion, this was his only chance to defeat Tōsaka Tokiomi, his mortal enemy, and he must be fully prepared.
But what he didn't expect was that when he rushed into the church in anger...
"Tousaka, Tokiomi...! Did you still think you had killed me? Tokiomi. But you think too simply. Before I make you pay, I will do it again and again..."
As he spoke, Matou Kariya looked at Tokiomi's motionless back, and all of a sudden, in addition to anger, he also felt inexplicable hesitation and uneasiness in his heart.
"Tousaka—"
Matou Kariya's trembling fingertips finally touched the collar of the shirt with a stylish tie.
With just such a light touch, the body sitting on the chair lost its balance.
The Tōsaka Tokiomi in front of him was already dead.
