Paradise: Ready Player One

The church is still very good at deceiving itself and others.

Rewrite the spellcasting of magic into a form that is more acceptable to the believers of the church, and then give it the title of "miracle", so that it can be learned by the church.

So far, "baptism chant" is a "miracle" that the Holy Church can easily achieve.

Its spell-casting ceremony is also the simplest, directly using the "doctrine" as the basis of the ceremony, and it can exert its effect anywhere in the world.

However, the "miracle" of "baptism chant" usually does not have the more intuitive lethality like other magic.

But it stands out in other respects.

Especially on the level of the "spiritual body", that is, the soul, it can purify the heresy from body to mind.

Using this to deal with Chen Ming was also well thought out.

After all, the soul is an area beyond the reach of most magicians. No matter how prominent they are in other aspects, they are all equally vulnerable at the level of the soul.

Accompanied by the baptism speech by the clergy, Chen Ming's body was finally submerged in white light symbolizing purification.

"..."

"Forgive me here, as the incarnation of God, I swear"

"May the Lord have mercy on this sad soul"

When this last sentence of congratulations ends.

The light of purification then went straight to the sky, as if sending a certain soul to the side of the "lord".

Such is the mercy that the Templar Church bestows on heretics.

"It seems a bit too smooth..."

The agent frowned, feeling unreasonable uneasiness in his heart.

However, the few priests behind him didn't think there was any problem, and they showed relaxed and natural expressions on their faces.

In their eyes, it is only natural for a proxy to cooperate with a senior clergyman like them to try a heretic who is not of a different kind.

Chapter 319 Finale ([-])

When he saw the holy light of the "baptism chant" shining, Kotomine Kirei almost affirmed the success of the agent's action.

This stems from his trust in the Holy Church.

The strength shown by Chen Ming is extraordinarily powerful, but it is not enough to shake the position of the Holy Church in Kotomine Kirei's heart.

After all, Chen Ming is neither an immortal heresy like the Dead Apostle who has been entangled with the Church of the Holy Church for endless years, nor is he a giant equal to the Church of the Holy Church like the Magic Association.

The Church of the Holy Church has plenty of means to target such a powerful individual like Chen Ming.

As the former agent, Kotomine Kirei couldn't be more certain about this matter.

Never considered the possibility of failure at all.

This is also a kind of deep-rooted arrogance.

The time for Chen Ming to emerge is still too short.

In the long river of history, there are countless people like him.

Whether these heroes or heretics, in the end, they can only leave a few strokes in the chapters of the world.

The existence of the Holy Church almost penetrates human civilization.

Emiya Kiritsugu almost thought the same way.

The strength and incomparability of the Church of the Holy Church is almost the consensus of most people.

As soon as he thought that such enemies as Chen Ming no longer existed, he couldn't help feeling a little relaxed in his heart.

However, it was because of this brief relaxation that Kotomine seized the opportunity to be close to him, swiped the black key with his backhand, and cut off Emiya Kiritsugu's right hand.

"you!!"

Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were filled with anger and astonishment.

Facing this sudden change, he still made a correct response immediately.

(Inherent time control double speed!)

The time flowing in Emiya Kiritsugu's body has been accelerated.

The reaction to the outside world was that his own movement speed suddenly increased, narrowly dodging a deadly punch by Kotomine Kirei who followed closely.

This kind of "acceleration" on the body usually only lasts for a few seconds.

Because this kind of magic that manipulates time will place a huge burden on Emiya Kiritsugu's body.

Once the maintenance time is too long, after the magic is released, the error caused by the flow of time inside and outside the enchantment will generate a natural force called "world correction" to make up for it.

And in order to make more effective use of this family-inscribed magic engraving, Emiya Kiritsugu limited the scope of the barrier it developed within his body.

This led to the fact that the power to modify the world would directly act on his own body.

The consequences are predictable.

For the world, this little correction power is not even a feather, but when it falls on the body of an individual life, it will undoubtedly become a mountain.

If you are not careful, you will take the caster's life.

It is worth noting that Emiya Kiritsugu's "Inherent Time Control" can only do "time adjustments" such as "stagnation of the past" and "fast forward of the future".

Moreover, the enchantment that manipulates time has a limited range, and there is no way to compare it with the inherent enchantment that creates a new world like "The King's Army".

But the magic of "inherent time control" is indeed a veritable inherent enchantment.

If this magic can go one step further and reach the level of interfering with the past, it will be promoted from great magic to real magic.

Speaking of coming back to this fight.

The pain of the severed arm did not make Emiya Kiritsugu lose his mind, he still calmly launched a counterattack within the duration of "Inherent Temporal Control".

With his intact left hand, he took out the submachine gun whose safety had been unlocked long ago from his coat, and pulled the trigger at Kotomine Kirei.

Dense bullets poured on the opponent's body along the muzzle.

At such a close distance, Kotomine Kirei had no way to dodge.

In fact, there was no need for him to dodge, he just raised his hand to protect his fragile face, and abruptly took this round of shooting.

The limited caliber of the submachine gun couldn't break through the vestment on Kotomine Kirei's body at all.

The impact force contained in the bullet was also fully borne by his body that had been trained to the extreme.

The bullets went down, although Kotomine Kirei couldn't be injured, but it also bought Emiya Kiritsugu some time to breathe.

While pressing the gun with one hand, the whole person kept stepping back, trying to widen the distance between the two.

No matter how confident Emiya Kiritsugu was in his melee combat ability, he would not think that he could be a match for an agent in this regard.

At this time, Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly noticed that the place Kotomine Kirei chose to attack was an empty guild hall, and there was no suitable bunker for him to play at all.

Apparently Kotomine Kirei had premeditated this attack.

Emiya Kiritsugu knew that he was still not careful after all, but now was not the time to reflect, the backlash brought about by the end of "Inherent Time Control" brought him great pain.

Even he, who had long been accustomed to endure it, had a distorted expression on his face.

Kotomine Kirei did not rush to launch a second round of attack, but took the opportunity to pick up Emiya Kiritsugu's severed hand, with a slightly stiff smile on his face.

It's true that he hasn't laughed for a long time, and he's almost forgotten this instinct.

Kotomine Kirei was even more intoxicated by the sense of joy emerging from his heart.

"Emiya Kiritsugu, the winner of this Holy Grail War will ultimately be decided between you and me."

Kotomine Kirei looked at the pale-faced Emiya Kiritsugu, and couldn't help feeling a strange feeling called "fate".

It was as if the two of them were supposed to stand opposite each other like this.

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't feel this way, he just felt the mockery from fate.

I tried my best to rule out Chen Ming, a strong opponent, but in the end, I was put on by the helper I found.

Emiya Kiritsugu, who lost his Command Seal, had no way to recall Artoria. Without his right hand, his combat power would undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and even the hole card that had been hiding had been given to Artoria long ago.

Even Emiya Kiritsugu couldn't help feeling a little discouraged.

But when he thought of the sacrifices he had made along the way, he couldn't allow himself to fail at this last moment.

Emiya Kiritsugu threw the submachine gun with an empty magazine aside.

He skillfully took out a single-shot pistol named "Thoson ArContender" from his arms.

It is filled with the original bullet made from his own ribs, which can cut off the magic circuit in the magician's body.

The reason why this kind of origin bullet has such an amazing effect is all from Emiya Kiritsugu's innate compound origin of "cutting" and "combining".

So far, the probability of death for a magician is still [-]%.

Emiya Kiritsugu fired a total of 37 starter bullets, killing 37 magicians with precision.

This is also the origin of his title of magician killer.

Why say so far.

That's because in the original plot line, Kenneth was shot and survived in the end, becoming the first magician to break this [-]% record.

Now that Kenny is going back to his hometown to embrace his wife, he probably has no chance to complete this achievement.

I just don't know if Kotomine Kirei will replace him and become the No.1 who survived the fall of the origin.

Chapter 320 Finale ([-])

The representative of the Church of the Holy Church stared silently at the purified land in front of him, and there was nothing left in it except for the holy breath.

This is the power of "baptism chant" jointly displayed by several priests.

Even the dead can hardly bear it.

For this reason, the magic power in these priests was almost exhausted.

However, there was a sudden clear applause, like a heavy hammer falling on the heart of the agent.
