Chapter 226 Unfortunately, the Holy Grail has withdrawn from the environment

Things like the "Holy Grail", in the past, undoubtedly occupied a very important position among all the resources that could be collected within Chaldea.

But in this world, especially in the current situation where Chaldea relies on the emperor to enjoy the shade, the importance of the Holy Grail itself has obviously declined sharply - this is why, after the passage of time, Fujimaru Ritsuka can easily ask "Is one enough?"

Although this problem is also due to the lack of corresponding foundation, which has caused the function of the "wish machine" of the Holy Grail itself to be greatly weakened, but in the No. 40 two thousand years of mankind, the empire has realized that the vast In the galaxy, things of the Holy Grail level are actually not uncommon.

What's more, in essence, the Holy Grail is just a "gathering of massive non-attributed magic resources". In the original Chaldea, its importance was mainly reflected in its versatility.Although there is nothing wrong with this "massive amount" from a "mortal perspective" like Fujimaru Ritsuka, in the empire at this moment... this kind of thing is mainly afraid of comparison.

It is said to be "massive", but in fact, Fujimaru Ritsuka had already tested it when trying to reconstruct the body of Conrad Coates: the resource throughput of the Holy Grail, a magic hearth that is extremely high-standard in the concept of a magician. , and it is simply impossible to support a body of the original body size to operate at full power.In other words, the so-called "generator" stored in Mimir's treasure house by Ferus can easily provide more energy than a single Holy Grail in the same unit of time.

Based on this, and the premise that Fujimaru Ritsuka has the authority to directly invoke the Emperor's spiritual power, the Holy Grail stored in the Storm Frontier has obviously become useless.Even after reshaping the "material" body of the original body, constructing Somni's humanoid spiritual base, and then stabilizing Ferrus Manus' etheric shell, other items in Chaldea's inventory have clear pointing functions. All the magic materials have been used, but the number of Holy Grails has not been touched at all.

In this situation where there is no need to use the "massive" magic resources contained in the Holy Grail to enhance the spiritual base of the heroic spirits under his command, Fujimaru Ritsuka's positioning of this "material" that has become tasteless and a pity to discard is : I don’t know when the spare battery will be needed.

For example, when the battlefield situation does not allow her to even set up an altar of the Ecclesiarchy on the spot, and she cannot contact the Emperor, but if the summoning spell can work, she can use a Holy Grail to summon several members of the Cursed Army whom she has already met before. ...It is a pity that Fujimaru Ritsuka has little imagination in magic. In her hands, the application of the Holy Grail has become so narrow inexplicably.

It can be said that the Holy Grail's presence in Chaldea is both a success and a failure because of its versatility: because the non-attribute magic power is so versatile, if you want to make full use of it, you need to know more about the user's magic knowledge. There are requirements for technology and technology - and Fujimaru Ritsuka obviously does not have both of these.

Since she has no use holding it herself, she might as well give a few of them to people who can really use them.
-
In the dim warehouse on the Storm Boundary, the Holy Blood Priest Decker, who inevitably looked nervous compared to the calmness of the other two, was looking around as unobtrusively as possible.

From what he could see so far, it looked more like an "exhibition hall" than a "warehouse."At least he had this association from the dim lighting in a large area and the emphasis on lighting the "exhibits" that were "displayed" in various forms here.

As a member of the Blood Angels, he did not agree with the too simple designs around him, nor did he fully understand the significance of these things being "displayed" here.From various angles, he didn't think that those were either works of art, or a scene that was presented out of thin air by some means he couldn't understand, or weapons that had no special features, or something that was a bit weird. Weird stuff - there's no need to show it.

And considering that the door of the warehouse is always locked and was not opened until Fujimaru Ritsuka arrived through her identity authentication, the speculation of the "exhibition hall" seemed contradictory.

However, taking into account the identity of the owner of the ship and the fact that Decker did not find anything obviously "wrong" in his glance, the Holy Blood Priest decided to keep this doubt in his mind. In my own mind: The reason why he appears here is really not to do these unimportant puzzle-solving tasks.

Immediately afterwards, the girl's voice pulled his mind, which was wandering around in the new environment, back into his body. "Although in terms of effectiveness, things like the 'Holy Grail' have been greatly devalued recently, but out of management obligations, I still have to ask you what exactly you are going to use it for."

Fujimaru Ritsuka stood in front of the subdivided "resource storage room" and processed the identity authentication while asking Asclepius a question in a nonchalant tone.

Some time ago, the uneasy Decker had also tried to ask indirect questions to this doctor who seemed to be just a mortal, but his knowledge and methods were obviously not "mortal" at all, and then he only got the word "shut up". Simple and crude response.And when the latter faced this little girl who looked more "mortal" than himself, Asclepius's attitude obviously improved a lot:
"I don't want to 'do anything' with it, I just want to use it as an emergency measure when necessary. You see, isn't the 'Holy Grail' also a 'cup' after all?"

This explanation was slightly interrupted by the sound of the mechanical door of the resource storage room sliding open in time.When a group of people walked into this small internally divided door, Asclepius asked with a confirming attitude: "Only speaking of the 'True Ancestors' and the 'Dead Apostles', you know their 'vampire impulses' 'What's going on?"

Decker didn't know what the proper nouns from another world, such as "True Ancestor" or "Dead Apostle", represented, but "vampire impulse" could still be clearly understood in a literal sense.This made the Holy Blood Priest instinctively vigilant, and even hesitantly reached for the bolter at his waist.

"I know, I know, but is this really the same thing?" Fujimaru Ritsuka, who was unaware of this, was still focused on the numbers of the cabinets standing in front of him. "Although this flaw is indeed a coincidence in the design, But whether it is the 'True Ancestor' or the 'Dead Apostle', or the so-called 'Principle Blood Ring', the relevant operating rules are not universal in this universe - Miss Arquette said so."

"But thanks to the similarity of this coincidence, the causes of this defect are indeed too similar." Asclepius said lightly, "According to my previous research using these 'Holy Blood Angels' as samples, I found that the mechanism that triggers the so-called 'red thirst' symptom in them is, loosely speaking, equivalent to a weakened version of the blood-sucking urge of the 'Dead Apostles'."

"Excuse me - what are you talking about?" Decker, who couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, finally plucked up the courage to interject, "Since my blood brothers and I boarded this small boat, Only seven standard hours have passed. What is your research to the end—"

"——After having a possibly extremely high reference direction, the research I conducted on you is just a verification." Asclepius interrupted the latter dissatisfied, "Only in this matter , Ritsuka almost threw the answer in my face. All I did was verify a known design flaw and devise a response to it in an emergency, which could be done in less than three hours over."

"What kind of joke are you kidding?" The Blood Angels' "vampire urge", or "red thirst" syndrome, is a secret that the Chapter has tried hard to cover up for 1 years, and it also serves as a curse that plagues all Saints. Leth's descendants for the same length of time.But now, such a secret was revealed by an outsider who didn't know the so-called and he found the solution within three hours. This is Decker, the Holy Blood Priest, and even any Saint including blood slaves or servants. This is something that the relevant members of the Blood Angels Chapter cannot accept emotionally.

His instinct was to draw his gun.Not to shoot something, but in such a tense and extremely chaotic emotional state, the instinctive reaction of any Space Marine would be to take out a weapon.But before he could actually pull out the bolter from the holster on his waist, an unknown force locked his arm out of thin air.

"——Let me remind you, we are in the warehouse now." Fujimaru Ritsuka, who once again borrowed the emperor's spiritual power, said helplessly, "But I also understand...Forget it, why don't we just spend some time here and learn more about it in detail?" Please explain this problem."
