What the hell is this movie theater?

Irisviel looked at Tohsaka Sakura's hesitant expression, and her expression was extremely complicated, but she still didn't speak.

"Miss Tohsaka, can you explain it to me a little bit?"

Diarmuid asked the young Tohsaka Sakura seriously.

"Although I understand that we are gathered here to solve the problem of [Evil in this World], and I also understand that today's [Evil in this World] has the strength and qualifications of [The Young Beast], but it seems that what you mean is not In order to eliminate [the evil in this world], but to help the [foreigner who was killed by the guardian of humanity], right?”

"Yes, Lancer, it is not my idea to eliminate [evil in this world]. My idea is just to solve the problem of [evil in this world] and solve the problems we encounter today."

Tohsaka Sakura nodded seriously, and then slowly explained the difference to the knights of Fiona.

"The evil in this world originally resided in the Great Holy Grail, but that person somehow managed to contain the evil in the Great Holy Grail of Fuyuki City into his own body, and it became a [container of the evil in this world].

It's just that unlike when the evil in this world existed in the Great Holy Grail, the curse, malice and materialized magic contained in the evil in this world did not cause any substantial trouble to him.

But even he himself probably didn't realize this.

After suffering a fatal attack, [The Evil of this World] had to emerge from the depths of his body and consciousness, repair the body damaged by the attack, and temporarily gain control of the body. "

——Just like [himself].

Because [I] was transformed into the Lesser Holy Grail by Matou Zouken, I was connected to the evil in this world in the Greater Holy Grail and was affected by the evil in this world, causing [I] to sleepwalk and prey on [living people] or [from By】.

Maybe right now he is dreaming about "turning into a three-headed dragon and destroying Fuyuki City", or maybe he is dreaming about "I want to destroy the electro-optical Superman Gurlitt".

"Although we can take advantage of [the evil in this world] to reside in him, it is indeed a matter of once and for all to eliminate him together with [the evil in this world] -

But if we really push him into a hurry and let him choose to merge with the "evil in this world" to gain strength, without distinguishing between "the evil in this world" and "him", I think it will probably make the whole situation worse. Worse.

Although I still don’t understand how much harm the [Beast Larva] that you mentioned and Gilgamesh mentioned can bring, I know very well what that person will do if he is really cornered.

He'd be really angry -

As soon as he really starts to get angry, he will start to try to cut through the mess quickly, preferring to solve the problem quickly - or to find a way to solve the person with the problem. "

——Because this is how she was sent back to the Tohsaka family.

At that time, she couldn't give that person a clear answer, couldn't explain what she wanted to do, or what she needed, so she started to look impatient.

It was precisely because that person didn't know what she wanted to do or what she wanted and couldn't solve her problem that Sister Jingke secretly sent her back to Tohsaka's house without letting her see that person really angry because of it.

——It also didn’t make things difficult to end.

Because of this, Tohsaka Sakura understood why Gilgamesh had waited for her to make a choice, and why she had to let her, a child, solve the "evil in this world".

Because no one else understands [that person] and only intends to use force to eliminate [the evil in this world], no matter how hard they try, they will only make an already bad thing worse.

therefore.

This is something only she can do and must do.

51. Belt-san!Run another lap with me!

Modern warfare emphasizes the doctrine of firepower superiority.

As long as a large amount of long-range firepower is used to suppress the enemy first and destroy the enemy's main combat measures, we can gain the initiative on the battlefield - a concept similar to this is 'battlefield air supremacy'.

The Age of Gods war that rivaled or even surpassed modern firepower appeared in this desert, and Gilgamesh, who loved to drown his enemies with his treasures, had long understood what [firepower advantage] was.

After all, there is no saying in this world that modern times will be more advantageous than ancient times and the Age of Gods. Rather, in most cases, the wars in the Age of Gods are about [resources] and [firepower], and then [power].

The most obvious example is [Greek Gods], where gods from all walks of life continue to give away [resources] to the people they choose.

There was nothing new under the sun, not to mention that it was an era when gods, fairies, mythical species, fantasy species, and the true ether in the atmosphere were all highly active.

Because of this, according to common sense, if fire coverage cannot achieve effective results, and both sides must use weapons with greater firepower to gain the initiative on the battlefield, but still do not use weapons with greater firepower to achieve useless results, then illustrate--

Whoever stops first means that whose resources no longer allow for large-scale conventional means to be maintained in a war, and whoever stops fighting will have to upgrade [conventional means] to [special means] before resources run out.

"You're so calm."

The wise king of Uruk stood alone on the sand dunes with his hands folded, watching that the army of the conquering king Iskandar had completed the blockade of the area around the three-headed dragon and was preparing for it, but he still did not lift the king's The treasure poured out with high intensity on the three-headed demonic dragon.

Every time the three-headed demon dragon breaks free from the shackles of the Heavenly Locks, new chains will be bound to it again. The more it wants to condense the 'thunder and lightning' in its mouth and spray it out, the more noble phantoms will be thrown at it. Heads poured out, interrupting his thoughts of counterattack.

Even though the thunder and lightning that the three-headed demonic dragon successfully condensed tried to counterattack many times, the counterattack was never really able to break through the blockade of the King's Treasure and cause effective damage to the Wise King of Uruk.

——Since it wants to compete for its reserves of 'magic' and 'treasure', it will continue to compete until the competition is enough to determine the winner. If it doesn't want to compete, then it's a different matter.

"Finally you can't bear it anymore?"

The wise king of Uruk no longer sat firmly on the Diaoyutai with his hands folded. Instead, he reached out from the golden ripples that appeared around him and took out a simple-looking round shield. He equipped it on his right hand in a completely defensive posture.

——It was a divine weapon forged by the Greek God of Forging (God of Fire) Hephaestus himself.

The three-headed demon dragon stopped struggling and allowed many treasures to bombard it. At the same time, its roar full of rage, malice and murderous intent also turned into sound waves that echoed through the sky.

"Verg Avesta!"

"The Achilles Cosmos!"

At this time, the shield, which was praised in hundreds of lines of poetry in the "Iliad", met the Noble Phantasm [The Pseudo Transcript of All Things] that could return [the damage received to the one who inflicted it].

All the damage the three-headed demon dragon has suffered so far has also resisted the [Cosmic Egg]. The fluctuations caused by the confrontation between great power and great power instantly destroyed all the sand dunes where Gilgamesh was, and the huge sound came with a distorted giant sound. The sound then turned into substantial sound waves and dispersed into the distance.

After a moment of stalemate between the mighty force and the mighty force, the damage returned by the Noble Phantasm no longer had the power to support it, and the wise king of Uruk fell to the bottom of the sand dune hollow created by the conflict between the mighty force, and then raised the weapon equipped with the [Surrounding the World] On Xiao Cangtian's right wrist, he saw slight cracks on the round shield.

"Simply using 'quantity' and 'point' has caused such damage to a veritable cosmic egg..."

The shield forged by the God of Fire Hephaestus himself represents the literal [World], a [Cosmic Egg] like the inherent barrier of the conquering King Iskandar.

Place the user in the [World] and use the [World] itself to resist all attacks from the outside world.

Users under the protection of the [Cosmic Egg] will never receive any harm from the outside world before the [Cosmic Egg] is destroyed, but the evil treasure of this world [The Pseudo Transcript of All Things] has accumulated. The point-to-point burst of damage also caused the [Cosmic Egg] itself to suffer a visible impact.

——Because [Cosmic Egg] can also be destroyed.

Although Gilgamesh is not the true master of the "Little World Surrounding the Sky", and there are factors that prevent him from fully liberating the power of the "Little World Surrounding the Sky", the quality of the Noble Phantasm itself is destined to unfold it. And used, it has been invincible in most cases.

Because even if [The Small World Surrounding the Sky] suffered a point-to-point explosion from [Pseudo-Copy of All Things], its shield would only have slight cracks and could still be used.

"King of Conquerors—don't let me down."

Gilgamesh casually threw the shield in his hand back into the ripples of the King's Treasure, then raised his legs and slowly walked to the edge of the sand pit, seeing the Macedonian regiment and the three-headed dragon in the distance once again showing a mythical appearance. like war.

The power of the complete king's army is not comparable to the power of the king's army shown before - just in terms of the diversity of arms, it has exceeded the upper limit that Waver Velvet can display when he is a demon.

Whether it is Macedonian spear regiments, light infantry regiments, light and heavy cavalry regiments, or archer regiments, they all advance and retreat as accurately as machines, cooperating with each other, fearless of death, and obeying orders and prohibitions.

The Macedonian spear corps faced the three-headed magic dragon head-on, attracting it and had to deal with it. The light and heavy cavalry formed a military formation and stabbed the three-headed magic dragon with their spears, but immediately retreated after succeeding in the stabbing.

When the three-headed demonic dragon wanted to abandon the influence of the spear regiment and pursued the cavalry regiment, the light infantry charged at the three-headed demonic dragon without fear of death, trying to climb on the three-headed demonic dragon's body and attack it.

Even if the three-headed demon dragon wants to use its huge body to use primitive means such as 'claw attack', 'pounce', 'tail attack', 'roll', or spit out thunder and lightning, in most cases Despite this situation, they were still jointly blocked by numerous corps and Shirou Emiya's support attacks.

Even an attack that cannot be stopped by the combined support attacks of numerous corps and Shirou Emiya will keep the number of corps dead to a small number, and then once again form a military force without fear of death, it will indeed kill the three-headed [-]-meter-tall enemy. The dragon is confined to the dune battlefield.

Such precise command skills——

Even if it is not said to be rare in the world, it is still one of the few.

"Heh, that's not bad."

Gilgamesh did not make too many critical comments on the king's military strength. He still just quietly watched the development of the battlefield on the sand dunes, paying attention to this primitive meat grinder war.

After all, he had already wasted a lot of treasures before, showing all the followers what [The False Transcription of All Things] is, and he had also consumed a lot of the magic power of the three-headed dragon. Copy] Be prepared and continue to consume its magic power——

That would only increase the number of combatants and put more pressure on themselves.

Gilgamesh no longer paid attention to the joint operations of various arms of Macedonia, but focused his attention on the fleeting blue figure mixed in the regiment.

——King of Knights Artoria.

At this time, Arturia was mixed among the Macedonian troops, and she was not looking for the key opportunity to decide the outcome with a single blow of the Liberating Noble Phantasm at any time.

He just stood on the front line with the Macedonian spearmen, resisted with the Macedonian spearmen, attracted the attention of the three-headed dragon, and provided necessary [rescue] at critical moments like Shirou Emiya.

Other than that, there weren't many attacks on the three-headed dragon.

Because she is observing.

Observing this three-headed demon dragon, which was already several times taller than the white dragon Vortigern.

The soldiers in the spear formation let out repeated shouts, pierced the tails of their spears into the sand dunes, and pointed their spears at the giant feet of the dragon crushing in the sky.

Faced with the giant feet of the three-headed dragon that was stepping on her, Arturia simply placed the Wind King Barrier in her hand, which was used to hide the Sword of Victory, at her side, brewing a storm.

The bright light from afar struck the other leg of the three-headed demonic dragon with a huge explosion, making the three-headed demonic dragon's body unstable and allowing Artoria to seize the opportunity to move upwards. The magic dragon wings blasted out the storm.

The storm did not turn into a strong wind that swept the world and swept the three-headed demon dragon into it. Instead, the storm in his hand disintegrated into a large number of strong winds the moment it was swung out, blowing the demon dragon's open wings, causing it to His body, which was already unstable due to Archer's attack, was completely unbalanced and fell sideways to the ground, instantly sending smoke and dust all over the sky.

Arturia and the Macedonian soldiers forming an array around her were immediately obscured by smoke and dust, but the low shouts around her also came, followed by the louder and layered roars of the soldiers, the sound of spears breaking through the wind, and the sound of the marching regiment. Voices also sounded densely immediately.

The spearmen on the Macedonian frontline seized this opportunity and marched towards the diffuse smoke. In the blurred vision, they turned the world-famous Macedonian spear into a knight's spear and stabbed at the magic dragon in the center of the huge smoke.

It's just that Artoria didn't move at all in the smoke and dust, but resumed her combat alert posture.

"Sure enough, my guess was correct."

Now the power displayed by the three-headed demonic dragons is more like monsters than the [phantom beasts] and [divine beasts] in myths and legends - and she is also silently waiting and observing the three-headed demonic dragons. [Eating Attack].

As shown in the battle between the [Foreigner] and [Lancelot] the night before, [Black Mud] is the 'manifested magic power' that can swallow up and pollute the servant's spiritual base, and the [Foreigner] also In front of her, he showed how to use [Black Mud] to devour humans.

Although the ability and influence of devouring and contaminating have been mostly offset by the Great Magic [Persian Mythical War Return Type], the nameless servant's spiritual base that has prevented the Macedonian Legion from being able to do so to a great extent will no longer be as easy as before. It will be contaminated and devoured, but that does not mean that [Persian Mythical War Return Style] is completely endowed with magical pollution and corrosion resistance to the evil in this world.

——[Persian Mythical War Return Style] only changes the Macedonian soldiers' magical power from "will be preyed on quickly" to "the evil in this world will take a while to prey on".

——The [Persian Mythical War Return] also allows the Macedonian soldiers to attack [Evil in This World] with enough force to make the three-headed dragon's [Lin Armor] disappear.

——Because of this, this three-headed dragon can be tightly restrained in the battlefield.

In the previous tentative battle with the Conquering King, [The Foreigner] also showed a similar ability to summon phantom beast species and mythical species, but the summoned existence was the same as now, only possessing the mythical species and phantom species. The form of the beast species', rather than the 'real mythical species and fantasy beast species'.

Arturia suddenly felt a chill in her heart. Sensing the crisis that came from nowhere, she instantly inserted the Sword of Victory in her hand back into the scabbard on her waist.

The three-headed demon dragon's roar, filled with boundless killing intent and malice, also came.

"Verg Avesta!"

In an instant, the muffled groans of countless people who were instinctively attacked were heard in the smoke, and the attacks that came from unknown sources also shook Avalon's realm, and then disappeared into nothingness.

In an instant, the previously unresolved doubts about the three-headed dragon in Artoria's mind were instantly dissolved, allowing her to instantly understand why the [Guardian of Humanity] and [Gilgamesh] were suddenly so highly regarded. Intense attacks, and also understand where those high-intensity attacks from unknown sources come from.

——The reason why Gilgamesh never stopped bombing, but immediately stopped bombing when the three-headed demon dragon used the Noble Phantasm, allowing Iskandar's army to intervene, was because of the three-headed demon dragon's The Noble Phantasm is a cause and effect type Noble Phantasm.

——If Gilgamesh stopped the bombing after the barrier was deployed and let Iskandar's Macedonian legions take over to fight the three-headed dragon, then the conditions for the three-headed dragon to activate the Noble Phantasm would definitely be met, just like now. , transferring the [karma] at that time to Iskandar's Macedonian Legion.

——Such a huge offensive ability that is completely inconsistent with its size, and it is inescapably linked to the Noble Phantasm of Cause and Effect.

Arturia figured out the mystery here in an instant, and immediately pulled out the Sword of Victory from Avalon, holding it with both hands, and raised it toward the sky covered by smoke.

"We will not succumb to any destruction, and the solemn defense of the end is activated. Guardians of the Round Table, the Thirteen Seals are liberated, and the Round Table decision begins——"

The substantial glow produced by the holy sword born from the planet broke through the smoke and shot into the sky, dispersing all the smoke and dust that obscured the vision in front of him.

The three-headed magic dragon lying on the sand not far away and the center of the tragic and curious battlefield also appeared.

The slender black tentacles extending from the scales of the three-headed demonic dragon prey on the nameless servants lying on the ground due to fatal injuries to their bodies, and capture these nameless servants who are on the verge of disappearing into their bodies.

Just like Arturia's inference after thinking in an instant.

[Evil in this World]'s attack method is not [Three-Headed Demonic Dragon] and [Thunder-headed Demonic Dragon's Thunder], but because [Three-Headed Demonic Dragon] can make the most of [Noble Phantasm Pseudo Transcript] 】Shape.

[The Evil in this World] can only attack with the most primitive attack methods and the magic power of jet thunder. The scene where the Hero King Gilgamesh and the Macedonian Legion suppressed it so easily is the scene that [The Evil in this World] deliberately gave A trap set by everyone.

The only way is to directly destroy all the forms containing the evil of this world in an instant, otherwise they will gradually fall into a disadvantage even if Tohsaka Sakura, who has the Holy Grail and the second method user, comes to perform demon sacrifices.

Tohsaka Sakura's body as a 'magic intermediary' can replenish and consume such a huge amount of magic power, and the magic circuit of her body will definitely have an impact on Tohsaka Sakura herself. As long as Tohsaka Sakura is affected and unable to provide magic, it also means that This war will inevitably be defeated.

Artoria, who held the holy sword in her hand high, with golden light floating around her, had sharp eyes, and the light also formed twelve blurry figures surrounding her.

"This battle is a battle for survival——"

The golden figure next to him responded, "No."

Arturia's brows furrowed.

Just at the moment when she frowned, countless slender tentacles thrust out from the dragon's scales rushed towards Artoria's eyes, but were blocked by unknown barriers.

Countless slender tentacles rushed towards the strong wind, trampling countless smoke and dust, lifting Artoria's skirt and hair on her temples, but it did not blow away the doubts in her heart, nor did it blow away her determination.

"This battle is a battle against those who are stronger than ourselves——"

The golden figure responded, "No."

The attack by the tentacles formed by the evil in this world was ineffective, and countless slender tentacles spread out, rolling up the Macedonian soldiers who were about to dissipate around the body and sending them back to the body under the unicorn to devour them.
