It is under the guidance of such a view of knowledge that, faced with the aggressive and almost childish remarks of the King of Conquerors, they can easily see the inner flaws and realize the essence of the Three Kings' Talks. Therefore, they will not be easily led astray by the values shown in the movie, and can also put forward their own views based on this somewhat dramatic debate.
In this situation, a large group of freshmen who have just arrived at the school are in a rather miserable situation. What they have received so far is still just the popular education of the secular world. They are temporarily unable to understand what other seniors say, and can only show an expression of "the big guys are so awesome" with longing.
All in all, although the Three Kings' Meeting caused a lot of waves to a certain extent, it did not spread further due to the limitations of this world itself, and most people were just talking nonsense. It is impossible for them to suddenly become awesome just because of the second-year remarks in the story.
Under such circumstances, the meeting of the three kings gradually came to an end, which was the scene where Rider used his treasure to instantly kill the assassin who suddenly appeared.
Chapter 110: Fate Zero (Part 10)
Chapter 110
Although the plot in which rider kills the assassin instantly is very fast, it is the key point of the meeting between the three kings. The foreshadowing and the overall rhythm can be said to be quite complete. Even if you have almost no understanding of the settings in Fate, you can still appreciate it.
Therefore, when the King of Conquerors summoned out his treasure, the King's Army, the magnificent scene covered with yellow sand instantly attracted countless viewers to become fans of the King of Conquerors.
I saw in that picture...
"This is the land that our army once crossed. It is deeply imprinted in the hearts of the warriors who have shared the joys and sorrows with me. This scenery and this world can be reproduced because it is imprinted in the hearts of each of us."
"Behold my unrivaled army!"
"Even if their bodies are destroyed, their heroic spirits are still summoned. They are my loyal warriors in the legend, my eternal friends who traveled through time and space to answer my call. They are my treasures! They are my way of the king! Iskandar's most powerful treasure - 'The King's Army'!!"
Rider, who was riding on his horse, shouted in a heroic voice: "A king must live more authentically than anyone else and must be admired by everyone!"
"Exactly! Exactly! Exactly!"
"The one who gathers the faith of all the brave men and sets out on an expedition with that faith as his goal is the king! Therefore, the king is not alone, because his will is the wish of all his subjects!"
"Exactly! Exactly! Exactly!"
The shouts of the huge number of heroes in the King's army surged in with terrifying momentum, while the assassins in the distance who were originally coming with great momentum now stood trembling in the boundless world of yellow sand like lambs to be slaughtered.
"Alright, let's get started! Assassin, as you can see, the battlefield I materialized on is a plain. I'm sorry, but if you want to win by numbers, I still have the advantage."
Then, as all the assassins fled in panic, the King of Conquerors laughed and gave the order without hesitation:
"Rampage it!"
"AAAALaLaLaLaLaie!!"
... ...
Almost every venue where the movie was being watched erupted in cheers at this moment.
The cheers that filled the entire venue not only reflected how much the audience loved the King of Conquerors, but also proved that, without a doubt, he was indeed a character full of personal characteristics and charisma.
Whether it is his heroic performance or his powerful strength, it allows the audience to feel the unique charm of the Conqueror King as if they were there.
Compared to the almost unanimous cheers of the ordinary audience in the cinema, the magicians of the Imperial Mage Academy naturally have different concerns...
Looking at the inherent barrier placed by the King of Conquerors, although most magicians knew that this was just a fake performance with a switch in the camera, the idea of the inherent barrier itself had a charm that these magicians could not get rid of.
"Inherent barrier? To materialize the scene in your mind? That's what Waver said just now."
"It's simply... I'm speechless. To use Ryunosuke's words, it's just cool!! This is the only feeling I have right now. I wish we magicians could also learn this kind of magic!"
"Does this ability really exist? And the King of Conquerors shouldn't be a magician, right? How can he use such a strange ability?"
"Isn't this the ability of a magician? Why is this happening? I always feel like I've lost..."
"No, didn't you hear what Waver said? 'Why can you use the inherent barrier? You are obviously not a magician.' He said something like this. It is obvious that this type of ability can only be used by magicians!"
"but... ... ."
While all kinds of conversations were echoing in the square, at this moment, a group of great sages on the high tower of the Mage Tower were looking at this scene in amazement. No one dared to speak first, and it was Dean Hohenheim who broke the silence first.
"First the theory of origin, then the inherent barrier... This kid Du Lin is really good at giving us surprises. The last time I heard of a similar concept was in the lecture of the previous dean. If that person had not been too obsessed with research and secretly conducted research on immortality, he would have died with honor by now, and would not have ended up being despised by everyone..."
"Yes, but it's a bit of a downer for you to mention that person now. The problem now is the setting of the inherent barrier given in this movie. Old Huo, you said you heard the previous dean talk about a similar concept? Why don't I have any impression of it?"
Dean Hohenheim simply said in a deep voice, "Of course you don't know, because I only saw the specific content of this magic research in the old dean's manuscript when I was collecting his relics. In fact, this magic was originally a preliminary research used by the previous dean to study the immortalization. He originally intended to collect human fear and use this energy to build a huge non-material world, and eventually create a false reality like a mirage, forcibly increasing the success rate of the immortalization. He even imagined expanding the scope of magic and completing a large-scale material change, so as to transform all humans within the range of the barrier into immortals, and finally create a kingdom after death."
"Although the King of Conquerors' ability called the King's Army in the movie is completely different in performance, I think the essence of the two is the same, that is, relying on human emotional energy to build an illusory world and replace it with the real world. This is the same for both the inherent barrier in the movie and the old dean's research. In fact, magic itself is a similar concept, that is, relying on human mental power to forcibly transform the material world."
After hearing what Dean Hohenheim said, the great sages present suddenly became enlightened and began to think more. One great sage even proposed this idea:
"Do you think the concept of origin is related to the formation of the inherent barrier? I feel that it is no coincidence that the story of this movie forcibly links the two together. If the attribute of origin is the prerequisite for the inherent barrier..."
Hearing these words that were obviously referring to something, Hohenheim just sighed and said helplessly: "This association is too illogical. Anyway, after watching this movie, I even feel like I have seen the dawn of the seventh level..."
"To be honest, I feel the same way..."
"Okay, go ahead and brag. You can find the path to level seven just by watching a movie. Do you think you are the protagonists in those popular novels? You can level up just by eating or farting?! I don't believe such a stupid thing. But this thing called the inherent barrier is pretty cool. I will also study it later."

Chapter 111: End of Fate Zero Chapter 1 (Part 1)
Chapter 111
"Irisviel, I have a question. You seem to have been trying to avoid touching anything today. Is this my psychological effect?"
"… "
"Whether it's driving a car or holding a key... You may not care about such things, but you didn't even make the most crucial magic circle yourself. It seems that there must be a reason. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Are you in any inconvenience today?"
... ... ..
"—Kirei, why is your definition of 'pleasure' so narrow? What is the contradiction between pain and lamentation and 'pleasure'? There is no specific form of so-called pleasure. It is precisely because you do not understand this that you are confused."
"That's not the case! King of Heroes, only someone like you with a devilish nature would feel pleasure in savoring the suffering of others. However, doing so is a sinner's soul and a crime that should be punished. No matter what, the path that I, Kotomine Kirei, believe in will not be tainted by you."
"So you think pleasure itself is a sin? Haha, you are quite good at coming up with heretical theories. You are becoming more and more interesting."
... ... .
"In this era, the people have lost their faith, and the country has long abandoned the will of God. I thought this world was about to perish... But at this time, there are still new believers like you. I am really convinced, Ryunosuke, my Master! But - from your religious point of view, my blasphemous behavior is just a trivial matter."
"No, everything you did can be called a first-class performance. Master, your beautiful comedy will surely be loved by the gods, and the gods will also be happy to be your supporting role."
"Blasphemy or praise? It's all the same worship of God, right? Ah, Ryunosuke! You really have a very profound philosophical thought. God who plays with countless humans in the world like toys is just a funny character... I see! Then I can understand this kind of bad taste. Very good, then use more colorful despair and wailing to dye the temple with bright colors. I want to let those gods in heaven know that they are not the only ones who know what real entertainment is."
... ... .
After the Three Kings' Meeting, the plot of the movie quickly transitioned to the end, from Irisviel and Saber going to Emiya's house together, Gilgamesh tricking Kotomine Kirei into experiencing happiness, to Caster and Ryunosuke's mutual appreciation.
At this moment, faced with this kind of plot that relies purely on dialogues, the audience's enthusiasm has not only not decreased at all, but is steadily increasing. After all, now they have completely entered into the story, even if it is boring to talk about the settings, for them, as long as they can see their favorite characters appear, they are already very happy!
However, in this situation, some viewers finally discovered that something was wrong. The movie had been going on for such a long time, but only the Assassin had left the Holy Grail War so far, and there were still six servants fighting each other. How long would the battle last
Of course, when they were thinking this, they completely overlooked one possibility and were just imagining how the story would end.
Therefore, as if to give these well-prepared audiences a 'perfect' answer, as the moon in the sky gradually reached its highest point, this movie, which lasted an extremely long time, also came to the end quietly.
... ... .
Sensing the strange magical power appearing on the sea, all the servants and masters immediately turned their attention here.
However, as if to deliberately conceal the situation, thick fog strangely appeared above the sea level at this moment. With human vision, one could only vaguely see the lights at the port. Apart from that, everything was shrouded in thick fog, and the situation inside could not be seen at all.
It was not until Saber and her apparent Master Irisviel arrived that Caster, who had slowly emerged from the thick fog, spoke: "Welcome, Saint. It is my great honor to see you again."
"You unrepentant fellow... You evil devil! What are you going to do tonight?"
"I'm sorry, Joan of Arc, but you are not the guest of honor at tonight's banquet. However, I would be extremely happy if you were willing to come to the table. I, Gilles de Res, have prepared a banquet of death and depravity. Please enjoy it to your heart's content!"
The next moment, as Caster was swallowed by the huge tentacle that suddenly appeared, a sound that seemed to have been amplified erupted at the sea level at this moment—
"Now I will once again raise the banner of the Savior! The abandoned will gather around me! The despised will gather around me! I will command you! Lead you! The resentment of us who have been bullied will soon be conveyed to God! Lord in heaven! I will wash away my sins and praise you!"
"Arrogant 'God'! Cold-blooded 'God'! We will pull you down from the throne! God's beloved lambs! People with bodies similar to God's! You will be humiliated and torn to pieces by us! The ridicule of us rebels will knock on the door of heaven along with the wails of God's Son!"
... ... ..
At this moment, what is presented to the audience is an almost horrifying scene - the filthy pieces of meat are expanding and taking shape little by little on the sea level under the support of magic power, and countless small monsters are crowding around the expanding black shadow in the center that looks like a huge mountain, creating a huge sense of oppression that can be felt even through the screen.
Faced with such a scene, no matter who it was, the only thing they could feel was the fear from the bottom of their hearts. All of a sudden, the scene experienced a period of silence, and then an astonishing discussion broke out!
"Oh my God, what kind of monster is this?!"
"God of Light, I don't want to see such disgusting things in my life!"
"If we encounter such an enemy when we go on an adventure one day, please stab me to death immediately. I don't want to have close contact with the flesh of that thing, and I have intensive phobia..."
"How did you become an adventurer if you have trypophobia?"
“… … .”
While various words were being passed around the field, His Majesty the King and General Wilhelm, who were sitting behind Durin, also showed surprised expressions. While they stared at the horrible monster in the movie that seemed to be able to destroy everything, they also asked questions immediately.
"Is this a real monster? Where was the movie filmed?"
In response to the question raised by His Majesty the King, Du Lin just shook his head silently and said, "It's not a real monster. What we created this time is just an illusory projection. Otherwise, if that kind of thing really came, its existence alone would probably cause a shock..."
"I see... ... "
Although he heard Durin's words, His Majesty the King still couldn't seem to be at ease. He could only continue watching the movie. Of course, judging from his expression, he was obviously looking forward to the story that would follow.
However, after the three servants, Saber, Rider and Lancer, discussed the battle plan and Saber took the lead in attacking, there was a handsome long shot.
Suddenly, as the grand ending song slowly appeared, the entire cinema suddenly lit up, and then, before the audience could react, the performance list slowly appeared on the screen.
What does this mean
Although most of the audience did not react to the situation at once, soon after the first audience member realized the horrifying fact, everyone could no longer sit still!
"What the hell!! Just gone like that?! Is the director kidding me?! Gone at such a critical moment? Just gone like that??!!!"
“Ahhh!!! I’m going to die! I’m going to die!! If you don’t show me fate, I’m going to die!!!”
"Damn it! If I can't see the ending of "Fate Zero" today, I won't go back!!!"
"Someone in charge please tell me! We spent so much effort to buy tickets to watch this movie, how come it's gone before it's even finished?!!"
"What happened back there?! Can a few heroes really defeat such a terrifying thing?"
"Yes! Yes! Why don't we protest together? Otherwise, this is too uncomfortable!!"
“… … .”
As various noises broke out at the scene, Du Lin, who had anticipated this situation, simply stood up slowly amid the subtle expressions of the people around him and waved towards the shadows in the distance.
And suddenly, as if it had been expected, the picture in the theater suddenly changed, and the ending song that was about to play to the end suddenly appeared on the screen.
All of a sudden, all the audience fell silent, and on the screen, the battle between Saber and Lancer, and the battle between the Servants and Caster flashed in an interlaced manner.
Finally, as Saber swung the golden sword in her hand loudly, the whole scene suddenly turned black, and the next moment—
"The second chapter of "Fate Zero" has been decided to be produced and is scheduled to be released in the winter of the xxx year of the Imperial Calendar."
With the appearance of this picture, the already lively scene suddenly became more lively. A group of audiences changed their cursing attitude just now, and now they had expressions like "Fate is so good", "The director is so awesome", "I will always support the film production team", and "I will sell everything I have to support "Fate Zero". Du Lin could easily feel it even from a long distance.
Chapter 112: The End of Fate Zero Chapter 1 (Part 2)
Chapter 112
Similar to the situation at the Northrick Cinema, as the movie ended, the entire Imperial Mage Academy was filled with cries of grief.
Almost everyone was wailing, "How could it just disappear like this?" and "I'm going to die without fate." At the same time, some magicians who saw something deeper in the story started chatting with each other while the ending song of the movie was playing.
"Do you think there's more to come? I feel like there's still a lot left to say."
"Isn't this nonsense? It's already been released here, there must be more. The only thing I'm worried about is when the rest of it will be released."
"Yes, I am looking forward to the great battle between these heroic spirits, although I personally think that the King of Conquerors should win."
"Huh? Why can the King of Conquerors win? I think the Hero King of Gilgamesh has a chance too."
"I think the Holy Grail itself is more like a conspiracy. Of course, it is certain that someone will win and obtain the Holy Grail."
"Speaking of which, although the monster that appeared at the end looked like a projection, is it really possible to summon it? How much magic power would that require?"
"... ..."
Before all kinds of discussions started, the trailer for the second chapter of "Fate Zero" gave everyone a reassurance. All of a sudden, all the magicians present at the Imperial Mage Academy started to discuss "Fate Zero" and the movie itself with great interest. After all, before watching this movie today, most of them had never watched any movie in their lives.
Now, faced with this interesting and unique new technology, even these magicians could hardly hold back their curiosity and began to discuss the identity of the producer. After all, the long row of Durin Edward's name in the final credits of the movie had already betrayed the director himself. Durin might not be famous in other places, but in the Tower of Wizards, almost every old student knew this well-known name.
At this moment, when people knew that movies were invented by Edward Durin, Durin's deeds spread instantly in the square.
