Standing in front of us is a woman covered in a cloak, even most of her face is covered by a gorgeous hood, uh, this scene reminds me of Viska back then, I don’t know that girl Now there is no hobby of collecting cloaks.
From appearance to now, the other party has not said a word, just confronted us with silence.
To be honest, at first I thought it was necessary to go through some battles first. After all, the heroic spirits in my impression should be the kind of characters who speak with their fists first. The other party can come to meet us obediently according to Lin Xue's request. It made the Pandora sisters who had begun to hold back their energy and prepare to kill the Quartet very disappointed.
"Are you the magician who summoned Sasaki?"
Tohsaka looked at the woman in front of her with a very surprised expression, she was a little puzzled by the strange situation, "But..."
"That's right, she is a Heroic Spirit, and her class is Cer. Because she is also a 'Magician', she took advantage of the Holy Grail system and can summon Heroic Spirit servants herself. Sasaki was summoned in this foul way." "I turned my head and explained to Tohsaka, "But because it was a product of a foul, Sasaki could only be restrained in front of the gate of Liudong Temple. Of course, due to Sakura's transformation, this restriction is gone now."
"Wow, is this okay?" Tohsaka immediately protested feeling very unfair.
Hearing her secret being told so easily, the woman who covered her whole body under the cloak finally reacted, the lips hidden under the shadow moved slightly, but the voice was sent to each of us: "I didn't expect that someone could go deep into this red moon world. I thought it would be safe to stay here."
A conservative course of action
This is really in line with Cer's personality. As a profession like a magician who is not good at frontal attack, perhaps because of her personality, it is normal for her to choose this conservative strategy in the Holy Grail War, and according to my understanding, Compared with fighting head-on, the woman in front of me is better at arranging positions in advance and using the advantages of the positions to win the final victory. Therefore, it is understandable that she has been hiding in the inner world from the beginning of the Holy Grail War to the present.
Seeing Sasaki standing among us, Cer was of course very concerned, and even more, he was still deeply puzzled. According to common sense analysis, the contract between the heroic spirit and the summoner is bound by the power of the Holy Grail, unless the summoner dies, This connection cannot be eliminated by conventional means. Of course, a certain treasure in her hand has the function of eliminating all mysterious effects. Using that thing can also break the contract between the heroic spirit and the summoner, but it is obvious that the current Sasaki This is not the case.
There is no sign of the contract being broken, or in other words, the half of the contract in her own hands is still intact, but the heroic spirit in front of her has completely become another existence. Although she can feel the magic power of the other party, but the magic power mixed The other thing made the contract power he had completely useless.
To use a more curious analogy, you bought a large Sony color TV, and one day you sent it to Lao Wang downstairs for repairs, but when you came back, you found that your remote control was not working, so you had to open the color TV’s casing Faced with the word "crap fart" in it, he was saddened, and was shocked by a counterfeit movement.
Well, this metaphor is really classic.
The psionic Sasaki is no longer a product of the Fe system, and he has nothing to do with the two major restraining forces, just like the TV whose movement has been replaced. Although the appearance is the same, the contractual connection still exists, but The essence of Sasaki is already a certain leaf of the Jingdong World Tree. Unless Cer can understand the system of another world, she will never be able to use the command spell to order Sasaki to do anything.
"I'm sorry for taking your heroic spirit away." I noticed that the cloaked woman's eyes were focused on Sasaki, and I naturally knew what she was thinking. Protest, but we'll pretend we didn't hear."
The good boy Weigong next to him was once again stimulated by this unlimited speech, and raised his hand: "Is it really okay to say such things so naturally?"
He was also stunned for a moment, and then looked thoughtfully at the large number of intruders in front of him. There were four heroic spirits who could be identified through magic power, a super eye-catching giant, a tall man with red clothes and white hair, and a purple-haired man. The silent woman who reached the ground, and the stern-haired girl in a silver skirt armor, the combat power alone is already an overwhelming advantage. God knows how they stood together so peacefully, and they were eliminated. This combat power that can be seen and imagined, as well as the two girls with obvious fluctuations in magic power (referring to Sakura and Ilya, among others, the weak magic power on Emiya was completely covered by the complex energy on our side, and Sakura As the Crystal Mother, there is no trace of magic in her body for a long time), and the rest of the people who can't see the depth at all are the existences that should be more vigilant. Ordinary people who would think they are powerless will appear in this place.
Through the shadow under the hood, I could feel the other party's scrutiny, and naturally I could guess what kind of trade-offs she was making. Sure enough, after a while, the other party broke the silence.
"The strength is completely incomparable. It seems that I have no chance to resist."
As smart as she is, she would not stubbornly choose to resist to the end under such circumstances.
"But before cooperating with you, I hope you can clear up my confusion." Cer suddenly raised his head, showing a beautiful face that can be described as stunning, "Who are you? I think you and those who participated in the Holy Grail War Magicians are very different."
hey i like this question
A few of us rushed to answer on the spot: "Do you know about photography lovers? Do you know about centaurs? Do you know about the frequent traffic accidents caused by wild Ultraman rampage in the universe? We are from..."
"Ahem" Tohsaka decisively interrupted the spellcasting before we moved out the invincible photographer's theory, "It's not important, they are all my foreign aid, I am a participant in the Holy Grail War, this is no problem Bar?"
We were stunned when we suddenly rushed to answer the questions, and then we nodded slowly, only to find that no one answered our own questions after a long time.
And she'll soon find, even sadder, that she's having trouble communicating with these baffling bastards.
"This desolate place is a good place to hide." I looked around. On the distant horizon, due to the movement of the red moon, a large amount of earth and rocks are slowly rising. "How did you find a way to get in?"
"What if I say I don't know myself?"
She replied, watching our reactions carefully. Obviously, although she was very calm, she was still very nervous in the face of such a combination of intruders who could crush herself a dozen times, but it was very obvious that she also No intention of telling the truth.
Of course, we will not be satisfied with such an answer, Sandora snorted coldly, and then turned her gaze to a certain direction in the distance.
"There's a human over there."
Just this one sentence made Cer's face change drastically.
In such a desolate place, it was too easy for Sandora to find a human mind wave. She didn't even need a life radar scan. She could instinctively point out the location of the man who was properly placed by Cer.
"We don't intend to embarrass you, nor do we intend to hurt you or your master," Sandora looked at Cer coldly, and the invisible mental shock made blood ooze from the corner of Cer's mouth, "but that's based on your cooperation, Your courage to stand before us alone is commendable, so I will graciously allow you to cheat the first time, but the second time, the punishment will not only fall on yourself."
Tohsaka and the others looked at Sandora with surprised eyes, as if they were meeting this blond girl who suddenly exudes a noble and cold temperament for the first time, I shrugged at them with a wry smile: "This is what Sandora really looks like .”
"It's Kotomine Kirei"
I don't know whether it was the burning pain in the heart or Sandora's threat that played a role, Cer did not hesitate to tell his secret this time.
"That human gave me something so that Soichiro and I can enter this space."
Panting violently, Cer finally calmed down from the burning pain in her heart. She looked at the noble girl in front of her with horrified eyes. Just one look from the other party could almost kill herself as a heroic spirit. She was shocked by the weird and terrifying strength.
"False priest?" Tohsaka immediately exclaimed in a low voice in surprise. The appearance of Kotomine Kirei's name here was unexpected, and Emiya uttered another exclamation: "Souichiro? Could it be that?" Teacher Ge Mu?"
"That's right, Ge Muzongichiro," I patted Emiya on the shoulder, "Young man, learn to face all incredible things, your sister can transform into a floating colossus now, so don't worry about the details." Kind of stuff...”
Emiya was confused and nodded speechlessly.
We didn't know until now that Kotomine Kirei knew about the existence of the other world from the very beginning. What he handed to Cer was a black crystal dagger. That thing seemed ordinary to me, but it carried a The energy fluctuations that the red moon faintly catered to were like a simple formula that could unlock the entire code. Those who held the crystal dagger could use it to enter the inner world. After Sandora's warning, Cer finally cooperated a lot. , and it seems that she doesn't have any good feelings for Father Kotomine herself. If she didn't want to expose the secret of her and Soichiro Kuzumi's entering this world, she might have given us the black crystal dagger on her own initiative just now.
"I don't like being treated like a pawn and confess why I don't like Kotofeng, "I can see that he's 'helping' me and Soichiro for a purpose. "
However, Cer failed to give us a clear answer as to why Sasaki was stronger than the average Heroic Spirit, and his weapon had mutated. Even she herself did not know how all this happened. The only clue that can be used is It was during the summoning ceremony that she was in the other world, that is to say, the secret of Sasaki's strength and the only explanation for the psionic energy contained in his weapon was also related to the other world.
"If you have to say that there is something worth mentioning, seeing our dissatisfied expressions, I am afraid that the strict blonde girl will be unhappy and make some violent actions, so I hurriedly added, "At that time, when the summoning ended In an instant, the red moon in the sky suddenly turned blue. "
Wow, it turns out that the moon not only keeps changing its gravity, but also its color
Is that fucking still a moon
It is a pity that although Cer was in the inner world during the summoning process, the Holy Grail system restricted Sasaki to be "born" only in the outer world. The latter had never seen the scene here, so naturally he could not help his former master. Testified.
The blue moon, this is definitely a crucial clue. All kinds of things that happened before tell us one thing. When a world discovers the remains left by the apostles of Xiling The ultimate avenger, it means that huge trouble is coming, so as long as it can explain the source of psionic energy on Sasaki's weapon, we must not let it go.
"Xue girl, can you see that blue moon?"
I connected with Lin Xue's spiritual connection. The latter's eyes observe the past and the future at the same time. If the blue moon has appeared and may appear in the future, it should not be able to escape her observation.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see it at all," Lin Xue's answer surprised me, but her subsequent explanation made me understand, "You think it's so easy to bypass the world structure and observe a space that exists in the concept Things? And even if I am a prophet, there is something I can’t see with my power, right?”
Sorry, I forgot this.
From Cer, we finally know another character hidden in the shady world, Kotomine Kirei, although at the beginning I thought it was a guy who was hiding deeply, but I didn't expect him to be related to this other world, and , He let Cer enter the inner world, indirectly helping the latter to increase the possibility of winning the Holy Grail War, what is it for
Frankly speaking, the red moon here can gradually increase her strength. Something similar to magic power but more like a catalyst is contained in those red moonlight, which is of great benefit to a magician like her. After concentrating, he felt this kind of hidden power, but Tohsaka didn't feel anything, which shows that this kind of magic power is only effective for heroic spirits. Since Kotomine Kirei can have a "key" that can open the gate of the inner world, then he There is no reason not to know the secret of Red Moonlight.
The more clues, the bigger the mystery, which is how I feel right now.
But at least now we know who to turn to to solve this mystery.
"It seems that's all you know," I shook my head. I thought that Cer could reveal the secrets of the inner world in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect that the other party was just a pawn, "Excuse me, it's getting late and we Let's go back first, you and Ge Mu don't get too tired and go to bed early... "
Rumbling, a sound of collapse.
"Hey Alien Strange Uncle." Tohsaka was really angry this time, and even the more polite "uncle" didn't respond, "You're done like this?"
What was even more petrified was Cer, the person involved. She was ready to die generously today, but the man in front of her who led a group of heroic spirits and thugs to smash the scene turned out to be just asking a few inexplicable questions like a census, and was about to... go up
"Are you kidding?" Tohsaka and Cer asked at the same time.
I straightened my expression: "I am a serious person who never jokes."
"But..." Tohsaka still wants to say something, even though things have developed into a very unimaginable branch plot, the dream of the Holy Grail in the girl's heart still stubbornly remains, "At least, she is a hostile heroic spirit... well, I give up , I admit defeat, how this Holy Grail War develops has nothing to do with me.”
This time it's my turn to be surprised. I thought Tohsaka's stubbornness on this issue would last until the end of the world, but I didn't expect it to collapse so soon
Uh, it's not too fast, after all, the Holy Grail War, which was harmonious and friendly at the beginning, is really beyond recognition now.
"Wait, are you leaving just like that?"
Seeing that we really turned our heads and were about to leave, Cer suppressed the embarrassment in his heart and hurriedly asked again, I shrugged at her: "Nonsense, I didn't sleep well last night, why don't you let me go to bed early today? "
As soon as the words fell, Sandora next to me blushed and secretly poked my waist—thanks to my strengthened body, Sandora's fingers made a hollow sound. You said that this girl is so shy? Heavy
"I mean took a deep breath, 'Aren't we enemies? "
"Oh, you mean, we should kill you now?"
The cloaked woman in front of her froze for a moment, then nodded.
"That is to say, you took the initiative to come out, hoping that after we kill you, we can let go of Ge Mu Zongichiro, who is no longer a threat?"
I asked quietly, the answer to this question sounds cruel, but it is the truth. Facing four heroic spirits, a Sasaki who betrayed him, and a large number of thugs whose strength is unknown, it is hard to guarantee that Cer is not fighting like this Ideas come to us.
Silent for a few seconds, the woman hidden in the cloak nodded slightly: "Although I don't know why you know so much, if you kill me and you let Zongichiro go, then do it. Of course, despite the difference in strength It’s huge, and I’m not going to sit still.”
I stared blankly at the woman in front of me who used her life as a bargaining chip for her "master". After a long time, I suddenly laughed: "Tohsaka, please lead everyone back first, I have something to say to her." Let's talk, um, Sakura, you and Rider stay here." A
