Infinite Begins with Giants

Chapter 514 Prelude to the decisive battle
After adjusting their mentality, everyone immediately took action.

Father Kiritsugu took out the box, took out the pistol and the sniper rifle, and handed Kariya a submachine gun, checked everything, and prepared the original bullet!

Kariya asked the magician killer very puzzled, after he was strengthened by runes, would he still need to use these things?

Father Kiritsugu just sneered and said it bluntly.

As long as Kotomine Kirei dared to appear in front of him, he didn't mind using modern guns and rune magic for mixed doubles.

The means are not important at all, what he wants is Kotomine Kirei's life!
Father Mapo poured dirty water on Father Kiritsugu, saying that he killed Tokiomi, and of course the magician killer was very upset.

Ren moved a table and placed it in the middle of the courtyard, and ordered: "Saber, put the little Holy Grail up."

Artoria opened the wooden box, carefully picked up the small holy grail, and placed it in the center of the table.

Ren carved a rune array on the ground, and the blue runes quickly took shape, forming a complicated pattern, and the magic circle enveloped the entire table.

Everything went smoothly.

The last rays of the setting sun recede gradually, and the courtyard of Liudong Temple is lonely. The trees cast shadows under the sunset, and the leaves dance with the wind.

There were more than a dozen flames lit by candles flickering in the courtyard, and on the hastily built altar with tables, some stones, and soil, there was a small golden holy grail.

An incense table was placed in front of the Little Holy Grail, and two candles were inserted.

There was also a stack of yellow paper next to the table, and a basket of tributes on the ground. Inside the basket were eggs, red paper, carp, beef, and a few pieces of pork with chopsticks stuck in them.

"The Tathagata Buddha bless, the Jade Emperor bless, God bless... we must win!"

Ren held three sticks of incense in his hand, facing the little holy grail, chanting in a godlike manner, and picked up a lighter to light the projected yellow paper, which had a copper stamp on it.

Saber stared at him blankly, and opened her small mouth: "Wu Ming, my God... what are you doing?!"

"Holding the ceremony, the conditions are a bit crude, and the etiquette is not good enough, but I am devout enough, and it still works if I think about it."

Ren put the three incense sticks on the incense case in front of the Little Holy Grail, lifted the basket containing the tribute, and placed it on the table.

Saber: "..."

What the hell is he doing?Why can't I understand at all?
Artoria couldn't understand the scene in front of her at all, and felt inexplicable, she had never seen such a ceremony.

Except for the magic circle that was arranged before, she couldn't see anything related to magic in Wu Ming's behavior.

Father Kiritsugu and Kariya Matou next to him were equally confused, one of them was holding a lighter, and the other was holding a long string of firecrackers in his hand.

Wuming said that the ceremony of receiving the Holy Grail will be held, and then let them prepare these, but...

"Hey, Wuming, are you sure you're not mistaken? You need to do this to receive the Holy Grail. Why does it feel like some folk ritual?"

Kariya held a bunch of firecrackers and asked in a daze, Emiya Kiritsugu and Saber also looked at him very puzzled.

Ren coughed lightly, with a serious expression on his face, and he explained solemnly:
"These are not necessary steps to receive the Holy Grail, but they are very useful!

This is a mysterious ritual that I learned in that ancient country on the other side of the ocean. It looks very simple, but it is actually profound and profound, and there is a lot of knowledge in it!

Among other things, this can at least improve people's fortune, seek good luck and avoid bad luck, bring good luck in death, and even make one's wishes come true.

I know you don't quite understand, but to put it simply, it is to increase the luck value, and you will be able to do things for a period of time after that! "

Everyone seemed to be ignorant but keen. Saber seemed to have thought of something, and she showed curiosity:
"Wu Ming, have you ever been to the mysterious China?"

"Well, I lived there for a while." Ren nodded and said with a smile on his face.

King Dumao's eyes widened. She had heard Merlin mention that place.

Unlike this island country in the Far East, it is a vast country with countless glorious legends and a civilization different from that of the West.

Matou Kariya and Kiritsugu's father were also very surprised, and suddenly felt that Wuming's experience was really rich.

"Wu Ming, that's where you learned your saber skills? Those strange moves?" Saber stared at him curiously.

In the last battle, the opponent's superb sword skills left a deep impression on her, so far she has not thought of any good solution, so she is a little curious.

"Hey, let's not talk about this, you don't know anything about it anyway." Ren waved his hand and didn't say much.

The Celestial Dynasty of the Moon World is a rather violent place.

I don't have any skills, so I really can't dawdle there.

Apart from Master Li and Brother Zheng, the ones that left a deep impression on Ren are Zhuge Kongming and Chen Gong, two very shameless Casters, because these two guys are disrupting the balance. In short—everyone is a great hero!
Shaking off the funny thoughts in his mind, he said to Kariya: "Now set off the firecrackers, this mysterious ceremony is over."

crackling...

Soon, a series of firecrackers sounded in the courtyard of Liudong Temple, together with the lit candles, the atmosphere was very festive and lively, just like a New Year's festival.

Of course, playing around is playing around.

As Ren activated the magic circle on the ground and connected it with the large circle underground, a huge torrent of magic power rose into the sky from Liudong Temple.

After the incense table, the little golden holy grail shone with mysterious brilliance, and the Holy Grail Advent Ceremony officially began.

everything's ready.

Glancing at the afterglow in the sky, Ren showed a smile. The time for an appointment with the King of Conquerors is coming soon, and it is impossible not to go, otherwise the opponent will take the initiative to attack Liudong Temple.

Three minutes later, outside the quaint mountain gate of Liudong Temple, Ren and Arturia stood opposite each other.

Just as King Dumao was about to say something, Ren suddenly took out a black ring and handed it to her:
"Here, put it on."

Saber was taken aback for a moment, then looked at him with astonishment: "Wu Ming, you... what are you doing?"

"A gift, to be precise, is a hole card for you."

"A hole card?"

"Yes, if the King of Heroes happens to launch an attack while I'm not around, and you're in a desperate situation, immediately crush the ring!"

Ren smiled and explained.

Saber frowned, very dissatisfied with his words: "Why do you think I can't beat Archer?"

"Saber, do you think you can definitely defeat the King of Heroes? This is the support of your allies, take it, put it on!"

Saber didn't refute, no matter how confident she was, she didn't dare to say that she would definitely be able to beat the oldest king, but she still didn't take the ring, her pretty face showed a little hesitation:

"Wu Ming, how can you give a girl a ring directly and ask her to wear it?"

The ring can't be worn casually, it should be given by the opposite sex.

"Girl, put it on if you want it! Come on, I didn't propose to you, what are you hesitating for?!" Ren got a little impatient, and stuffed the ring into her hand.

Artoria was silent for a while, and put the ring on her left index finger, feeling a little depressed suddenly.

"What's the matter, suddenly very upset?" Ren looked a little puzzled, sensing that she was in a bad mood.

Saber stared at Wuming with her green pupils, sighed, and said with a guilty expression:

"I once put a ring on a woman, but you know, I couldn't give her love, and I bound her for the rest of my life...and finally had to order her to be executed."

Ren was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that King Dumao was a married woman, no, he was a married woman on time.

King Arthur's wife, Queen Guinevere.

Queen Guinevere is often overlooked, but technically she and Artoria are legally married.

King Arthur of the Moon World is a woman, and Arturia and Guinevere are not Lily. The marriage of the two women is of course false in nature.

However, formally speaking, they are real legal couples.

At that time, the two held a grand wedding in the city of Camelot to announce it to the world. It was as formal as getting a marriage certificate, and it was recognized by the world and had legal effects.

Then, the spiritual love between Lancelot and the queen was discovered by Xiao Mo, and the bear boy reported them.

And Xiao Mo is an artificial human created by Artoria's sister Morgan by using magic to extract the essence of the King of Silly Hair.

Mordred is essentially a clone with the gene of the Dumb King, or her offspring.

The circle is so messy.

Thinking of this, Ren's expression twitched slightly, and he looked at the girl-like Saber with a very strange look.

"What's wrong? Looking at me like this all of a sudden?" Saber was a little unaccustomed to the way he looked at precious animals.

"Ahem, it's nothing, Saber, I suddenly discovered that your experience is very tortuous and bizarre, even street writers dare not make it up like this." Ren could not help but smile.

King Dumao was married, but not officially divorced. When she executed Guinevere's child, the other party's identity was still the queen.

From this point of view, Emiya Shirou is just the lover and cook raised by King Dumao in the Far East island country, the kind who doesn't even have a title.

Ren suddenly felt a little funny.

Because to a certain extent, everyone who tried to climb onto Artoria's bed was just a mistress.

Saber is not only married, but also has children, and everyone else with her is a "second marriage", and is also Xiao Mo's "stepfather", and by the way, he has a crush on Guinevere...

It's just so fucked up.

Suppressing the smile in his heart, Ren couldn't help asking: "Saber, how old are you now?"

Arturia was taken aback for a moment, then frowned, she turned her head away, and hummed softly with a straight face:
"Wu Ming, don't you know? In this day and age, is it impolite to directly ask a woman's age?"

It didn't matter before, but she doesn't want to talk about it now, especially she doesn't want to tell this hateful guy Wu Ming, she knows that she will be ridiculed by him.

"Hehe, it doesn't matter, I'll just treat you as 15 years old, forever young and always picturesque." Ren was in a good mood, and the smile on his face became brighter and brighter.

Although she looks like a girl, King Dumao has lived for more than ten years. She was 15 years old when she pulled out the sword in the stone.

Saber's real age is not difficult to judge. After drawing out the sword, she traveled to various countries with Kai and Merlin, and then fought all the way to build Camelot... until the destruction of Britain, it took at least ten years.

In this way, it can be known by calculation that King Dumao is at least 25 years old, and it is possible to be over 30 years old.

To sum up, she looks like a girl, but she is actually a woman who is about 30 years old, married, had children, and her wife ran away with other men in the end.

With such a complicated experience, King Dumao is still a virgin.

"Cough cough!"

Thinking of this, Ren coughed twice, clutching his stomach and almost cramp from laughing.

What a bizarre life experience, he felt that compared with her, his experience of traveling through several worlds was really nothing, it paled in comparison.

No wonder no one thought he looked like a Heroic Spirit, the Moon World was indeed a very magical place.

"What are you laughing at?" Saber gave Wuming a very dissatisfied look, she knew that the other party was going to tease her again.

Ren held back his laughter and secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't tease her this time. After a while, he said solemnly:
"I can't blame you for what happened to Guinevere. After all, you are a woman, so there is nothing you can do about it. Don't worry, at least this ring of mine cannot bind you forever."

Saber glanced at the ring on her hand, and then asked: "What exactly is the hole card you mentioned?"

"Don't worry about it, don't touch the ring until Archer shows up, but if an accident occurs and you are in a desperate situation, just crush the ring and a miracle will happen."

Ren showed a mysterious smile and didn't explain much. Saber frowned, but didn't ask further.

Everything in Liudong Temple is ready to deal with all emergencies,
Emiya Kiritsugu and Matou Kariya at the side listened quietly to the conversation between the two servants. After they finished speaking, Kiritsugu's father said, "Mu Ming, resolve the battle as soon as possible!"

"I wish you prosperity in martial arts!" Jiantong Yanye also shouted.

"no problem!"

The corner of Ren's mouth curled up, he nodded, glanced at the dim red glow in the sky, and walked down the mountain.

Saber watched him leave, and couldn't help saying: "Wu Ming, be careful, don't be killed by Rider."

Ren stopped and looked back at her: "Girl, you are flattered, are you worried about me?"

"I'm worried that after you are killed, I won't be able to deal with Archer and Rider alone."

Saber snorted coldly, with a hint of concern in her tone, but there was no shyness of a little girl on her face.

Her perception of Wuming is quite complicated.

But in the end, she didn't fall in love with him. She admits that she is a woman, but she is also the King of Knights.She is definitely not a little girl who likes romance!
Ren also snorted coldly, and a majestic and fierce aura erupted from him, sweeping all directions.

The leaves rustled, the birds in the forest were awakened, and they croaked in fear. Ren's eyes were filled with terrifying murderous intent, and his face was even more ruthless:

"Knight King, put away your worries. Rider is a good guy, and he is worth fighting, but you can mourn for him now!"

Saber's pupils contracted slightly, her expression was very serious, feeling the fierce aura on him, she found that Wuming was more terrifying than at the king's banquet.

A fiery fighting intent flashed in her eyes, and she also exuded a fighting spirit that was as clear as a clear stream:
"Wu Ming, there is nothing to say. However, I will definitely challenge you again if I have the chance!"

Ren just sneered, stepped on his feet, turned into an afterimage, and swooped down from the approach.

"Knight King, you can try it, don't think you are beautiful, I won't beat you!"

The person has disappeared in the afterglow, but the voice echoes in front of the mountain gate of Liudong Temple.

He doesn't like any affection at all, most of his good feelings for Saber are that she can fight and has a strong willpower, the rest are just details.

"Arrogant guy." Saber said coldly, her tone was very dissatisfied, but her eyes showed admiration.

What she appreciates most about Wu Ming is that he is very crisp and neat in his actions, his force and strategy are very good, of course, his cooking speed is also very fast...

The two have been together for a while, and the relationship is a bit complicated, but there is no love between them.

Today, the weather in Fuyuki City is very abnormal.

The north wind that lasted for several days stopped abruptly, as if it had never happened, and an inexplicable sense of depression filled people's hearts, and it became more and more intense.

When the last ray of afterglow disappeared, the sky was getting late, and there were no cars on the road, only the white and miserable lights of the street lamps illuminated the cold asphalt road in the winter cold.

In an almost suffocating atmosphere, almost no one dares to go out. A city without human activities seems to be abandoned by the world.

There was also silence on the Fuyuki Bridge in the Mito River.

Boom!

Suddenly there was a thunderclap, and the wheels of Kamui galloped recklessly on the road, passing through the sleepy city, and reaching the bank where the dark river gurgled.

Even in the stillness of night, the bridge was clearly visible in the pale light of mercury lamps.

The wheels of Shenwei stopped on the side of the bridge, and the cold wind howled, making the Conqueror King's fiery red cloak rattle.

The emperor's burly body stood on the frame, his fiery red beard and hair fluttering in the bitter wind, he straightened his chest, and stared at the other side of the bridge with piercing eyes.

"Has Wu Ming arrived yet?"

Next to Rider, Wei Bo asked after swallowing, even though he had made up his mind, he was somewhat nervous.

"It's already here."

The emperor's steady voice echoed in the night, before he finished speaking, a white rain of light floated in the void, and Ren's solid figure appeared opposite him.

The two are 20 meters apart.

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing Wu Ming appear, the King of Conquerors couldn't help laughing, his eyes filled with the pride of looking down on the world.

"Wu Ming, you are very punctual today! Are you so impatient to join my team??" The emperor stared at him sharply and greeted him first.

Ren crossed his arms and his red coat was swaying in the cold wind. He stood on the bridge and said with a stern expression:
"I'm here to see you off for the last time, so naturally I can't keep you waiting!"
