Chapter 248 The Least Likely Thing to Succeed
These artificial warriors of the Einzbern family are all true death warriors, or in other words, they have no concept of being afraid of death.

In a sense, artificial humans are actually "AI". Most artificial humans do not have the personality to think independently. Most of them are just "puppets" that operate according to set programs.

They have no hearts and only repeat the same words. Once they are given a job, they will continue to do it. They take completing the intention when they were created as their mission and act purely.

The mission of these combat maid androids before us when they were created was to protect the safety of Einzbern Castle.

"kill!"

The combat maids with cold expressions rushed forward. Kiritsugu Emiya took out his gun, and Ke Ling waved his hand, and rows of shadow guards appeared in front of him. These shadow guards were pitch black, with square heads and looked quite strange, and they held large-caliber rifles in their hands.

"Da da da da da!"

The shadow guards opened fire directly, spraying the combat maids in front of them. The black bullets hit the combat maids and easily pierced their bodies.

"defense!"

Following an order, several combat maids stood in front with shields. The weapons used by these androids obviously did not keep up with the development of the times. They were all cold weapons such as swords, spears, axes, hooks and forks. Facing the shadow guards' strafing, they could only rely on shields to block it first, and then fight back with bows and crossbows.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Bows and crossbows shot at the shadow guards, but the effect of the arrows was very general. They were easily bounced off the materialized shadow guards. The shadow guards transformed from mechanical guards were now stronger than before after being strengthened by Ke Ling, and it was impossible for the arrows to penetrate them.

Several shadow guards came forward with big swords and rushed directly into the formation of the battle maids. A hand-to-hand combat was about to break out.

This is truly a case of "AI" versus "AI". One is the product of alchemy, and the other is the product of "new alchemy". It is not wrong to say that these shadow mechanical guards of Ke Ling are "golems" made by the "new alchemy" from the 2070s.

If science is the “new magic”, then robots are naturally the “new golems”.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

The blades clashed, and the combat maids were not afraid of the shadow guards at all. They took the initiative to rush forward and fight with the shadow guards. Their swords were shining, obviously strengthened by magic.

"Pfft!"

A combat maid was hit by a knife and cut in half, and the shadow guards were also hit by several knives. The body of the shadow entity shook, but it did not dissipate. Ke Ling's blood vampire magic is now becoming more and more powerful, and it also brings the most direct bonus to these transformed shadow guards.

"Pfft!"

The greatsword swept across, cutting off several combat maids in half again. Several shadow guards killed people in all directions and rushed through the artificial crowd. It was obvious that the "new alchemy" of the 2070s was superior, after all, Ke Ling's blood vampire magic helped to cheat.

The combat maids fought to the death without even any emotional fluctuations. Before they awakened their self-awareness, they would not run away and would not understand what "their own life" was. However, awakening self-awareness was very difficult, and not every android could awaken like Sieg.

"puff!"

Under the siege of the battle maids, the chopped figures of the shadow guards dissipated, turning into a pool of black shadow and merging into the shadow under Ke Ling.

For this shadow guard, this is equivalent to returning to the "Kingdom of God". It only needs to wait for a while, and it can condense into shape again and fight for Ke Ling again.

In the endless shadows under Ke Ling's feet, in the "Shadow Realm of the Kingdom of God", the shadow guards can constantly recast their bodies. They do not know what death is, and fighting is their destiny.

"What's this?"

Emiya Kiritsugu, who was holding the gun, couldn't help but swallow his saliva. How many tricks did this Devil have yet to use?

After a while, all the android combat maids were slaughtered, but the shadow guards did not suffer many casualties. The androids of the Einzbern family were indeed not very good at fighting.

This has always been the case, because they themselves will not delve into any combat techniques. They were created to seek to complete the "Third Law" and seek salvation for all mankind, but they were not allowed to study how to fight.

These androids are working hard for this and won't consider anything else, so they hired Kiritsugu Emiya.

"Let's go in and have a look."

Ke Ling stepped forward, walked through the pile of broken limbs and entered the courtyard of the Einzbern family. The castle was not far away.

"it is good."

Without any hesitation, Kiritsugu Emiya followed Ke Ling in, with a group of shadow guards leading the way in front.

After opening the gate and entering the courtyard, the androids rushed out again to fight to defend the Einzbern Castle.

Inside the castle, in a room on top of a high wall, Illya was leaning against the window and looking out. She was a delicate little girl, not tall, and very cute.

She is the child of Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel, but she looks more like Irisviel, and there is not even a trace of Emiya Kiritsugu in her.

There was no way. Although she was indeed a combination of Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel, Illya had already undergone many magecraft adjustments during her pregnancy, when she was still an embryo.

She is the product of the Einzbern family's artificial human technology and the embodiment of the highest skill. She is both the "Little Holy Grail" and a human being, and can personally become the Master of the Holy Grail War.

"Illya, don't look."

Beside Illya, two maids were guarding her and forcibly pulling her away from the window.

It's not that they don't want Illya to see the bloody scene, they are just faithfully carrying out the task of preventing Illya and Emiya Kiritsugu from meeting, even this kind of meeting is not allowed.

As long as they are still able to move, they will continue to carry out this order unswervingly. This is the artificial human.

"But."

Illya was a little unhappy. The noise outside was very loud and it sounded very lively. She wondered if Kiritsugu and his mother had returned.

In a sense, Illya guessed correctly. It was indeed Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel who returned, but Irisviel became a "cup" and Emiya Kiritsugu became an invader. The battle in the courtyard ended quickly, and the number of shadow guards decreased again. The androids were not less fearless than these shadow guards, except that they were a little less functional.

"boom!"

The gate of the castle was blasted open, and Ke Ling stepped in. This ancient castle was very charming, and the things inside were quite old. It was worthy of being a magic workshop that had been passed down for nearly two thousand years.

"Emiya Kiritsugu, why did you give up the Holy Grail?"

As soon as Ke Ling and Emiya Kiritsugu entered the castle, an old voice sounded, asking in a very calm tone.

"Because you lied to me. That thing is not a universal wish-granting machine at all."

Facing the questioning of this voice, Emiya Kiritsugu responded directly that the Einzbern family had objections to his actions, and he also had objections to the Einzbern family in his heart. These bastards had been deceiving him from the beginning and had fooled him around.

"Ahad! Your idea is nothing but a foolish dream! Using the third method to save all mankind is simply nonsense!"

Emiya Kiritsugu had a gloomy face, and he obviously did not approve of the Einzbern family's methods.

Let all human beings obtain eternal life, so that all disputes in the world can be resolved? What a joke! ! Putting aside the feasibility of this matter, this idea does not consider human nature at all! It does not consider the carrying capacity of the world, it is just wishful thinking!

If we all become that kind of thing, are we still really human?! If humans no longer have death, then this world will definitely collapse!

Even as a magic user, a "magician killer" who doesn't care about the theory of magic, Emiya Kiritsugu understands that although this approach sounds great and beautiful, it is completely unreasonable and will only bring about more terrible disasters.

Moreover, in Emiya Kiritsugu's opinion, there is no such thing as "eternal life" or life that cannot be killed.

"You have no right to question the Third Law!"

The old man called "Ahad" interrupted Emiya Kiritsugu, his voice was a little louder, as if expressing anger, but the indifference in it was impossible to ignore it.

"Please don't imitate humans so poorly."

Ke Ling complained. Of course he knew who was talking now.

Everything in Einzbern Castle was built by the disciples of the magician of the "Third Law". They built a workshop here and passed it down from generation to generation in pursuit of realizing the "Third Law".

In order to concentrate on their research, they created an artificial human to help with various chores and manage the castle. This is the "Ubusta Kuhaid" who is speaking.

"Ubusta Kuhaid", to put it bluntly, is the artificial intelligence created by the disciples of the third magician to control the castle core. It is the manager of all androids and the patriarch of the "Einzbern" family.

The patriarchs of all generations are equivalent to the human terminals of "Yubusta Kuhayid", and the unified name announced to the outside world is "Ahad".

This "Ahad" is similar to the "Hassan al-Sabah" of the Assassin's Order, both of which are common names for rulers.

It’s just that the “Hassan Sabbah” is a different person in each generation, while this “Ahad” is controlled by “Yubusta Kuhayid” and is just a puppet given a simulated personality, an artificial puppet whose mission is to “operate the castle” and “recreate the third magic”.

Even if the body of an artificial human is prolonged by various means, it can only last two or three hundred years, which is a long time. Naturally, it needs to be replaced from generation to generation. The current "Ahad" is the eighth generation, and it has been there since the establishment of the "Holy Grail War". It is estimated that the next replacement will not be far away.

After his identity was exposed, "Ubusta Kuhaid" said no more, and a group of androids rushed out. Their beliefs would not be shaken at all because they still had Illya, an ultimate weapon specially made for the Holy Grail War.

Only when Illya also fails will they be likely to waver, because they have exhausted all their options.

The battle continued, and the result was obvious, the androids left corpses all over the ground.

Facts have proved that in the thousand years after the makers left, the Einzberns under the control of "Ubusta Kuhaid" did not make any progress. Their alchemy was the best in the world, but this was not the credit of these artificial humans, but the results left by those makers thousands of years ago.

The intelligent center "Ubusta Kuhaid" has no creativity at all and just keeps the Einzbern closed. Even the "Holy Grail War" was established with the help and planning of the human assistant Machiri Zorgen.

As an "eternal" existence, "Yubusta Kuhaid" seems to have proved one thing, that is, "eternity" may not be useful, especially eternity without "humanity".

"boom!"

The door of the room was opened and Emiya Kiritsugu rushed in, his face full of anxiety.

"Ilia!"

The first thing Kiritsugu saw was his daughter, the delicate little girl, but he did not go closer because two combat maids blocked his way.

"Kiritsugu?! Are you really back?!"

Seeing Emiya Kiritsugu breaking in, Illya shouted in surprise. She had no idea what had happened in the castle.

"Get out of here, Emiya Kiritsugu."

The two combat maids rushed towards Emiya Kiritsugu without hesitation, and Emiya Kiritsugu activated the "Inherent Time Control" without hesitation.

Time seemed to slow down before his eyes. He bypassed the two combat maids and rushed directly towards Illya, who was looking surprised.

In fact, he could kill the two artificial maids, but he didn't want to do so in front of Illya. This girl was the last softness in his heart and the last coordinate in his heart when he was confused in life. He didn't want Illya to be polluted.

On the other side, Ke Ling had arrived at the center of the Einzbern Castle. His shadow guards were scattered throughout the Einzbern Castle. They finally found the location of "Ubusta Kuhaid" and found the center of the castle, the manager and creator of all the androids.

"In this world, pursuing a third law to save the world is just courting death, isn't it? Do you really think that restraint is just for show?"

Looking at the real body of "Ubusta Kuhaid", Ke Ling complained that a guy in a parallel world did the same thing and almost succeeded. The Holy Grail had even started to work and began to launch the "Third Law" against all mankind, but "almost" meant that it still failed in the end.

In that situation, let alone Gaia, I'm afraid even Alaya would have to join in to stop this from happening, because this is not "salvation" at all, but another kind of destruction, which is true for Gaia and Alaya as well.
