Build the Traveler Alliance from scratch - #549 - Chapter 549 The truth about the Holy Grail War

In the dark night, a trembling roar could be heard from Liudong Temple and even the entire Yuanzang Mountain.

The ground rumbled up, and the hard earth and stone squeezed through the stone bricks, springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain.

On the ground, everyone looked at the rising ground under their feet with shocked faces, either supporting each other, or grabbing things around them to stabilize themselves.

Not long after, the trembling and uplifting of the earth finally ended, and the Buddhist pure land that was once green mountains and green waters was now beyond recognition.

In the center of Ryudou Temple, at the core of Fuyuki City’s leyline, an extremely thick stone column rose. On the top circular platform was engraved a frighteningly large magic circle.

Surrounding the giant stone pillar is a circular venue similar to an ancient arena.

Surrounded by a ring-shaped auditorium with tiers of stairs, dozens of people were standing scattered on it, including the unconscious monks from Ryudou Temple, Tong Shen, Tohsaka Rin, Emiya Shirou and others.

Looking out along the guardrail at the highest point of the auditorium, you can see the squished houses and Buddha statues.

Tong Shen and others looked at the changed scene in front of them with shock, and they couldn’t help but shudder at Lin Zhongtian’s methods.

“Methods of this level are no longer magic…”

Tosaka Rin murmured to himself with a face full of fear, then suddenly turned his head, looked at Lin Zhongtian behind him, and said with trembling lips: “You… who are you?”

Lin Zhongtian smiled and shook his head: “It doesn’t matter who I am, what matters is… that thing.”

As he spoke, Lin Zhongtian turned his attention to the stone pillar rising from the center of the amphitheater.

Everyone also followed his gaze.

From the perspective of the highest level of the auditorium, the large magic circle engraved on the stone pillars can be seen at a glance. The magic contained in it makes people like Tohsaka Rin and Hong A extremely frightened.

“What’s this?”

Emiya Shirou couldn’t help but ask.

Tohsaka Rin suppressed his shock and said in a deep voice: “It’s the Great Holy Grail!”

“What?!” Shirou Emiya looked at the magic circle in shock, “Is this the Holy Grail?”

“It’s actually buried under the ground of Liudong Temple?”

Hearing Shirou Emiya’s shocked words, Lin Zhongtian chuckled, then raised his right hand slightly, spread his fingers, and grabbed forward.

In an instant, silver light bloomed, and three figures fell out of the silver light.

One of them was wearing silver armor and had blond hair. He was Saber who had fought Berserker before.

The other two people, one tall and one short, stood side by side, it was Berserker and his master Illya.

After appearing, all three of them looked shocked.

Illya quickly came to her senses and looked at Lin Zhongtian angrily.

“Pedophile, pervert, let me go!”

As Illya finished speaking, Berserker, who was two and a half meters tall, let out a wild roar. His muscles bulged, and his subcutaneous blood vessels revealed a dazzling red light, as if he was trying to break free from some invisible restraint.

But unfortunately, under the ubiquitous space constraints, no matter how powerful Berserker is, it is impossible to break free from Lin Zhongtian’s hands.

The corner of Lin Zhongtian’s mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Ilia, who was imprisoned in place, with a face full of shame and anger, and said angrily: “Don’t make trouble, it is the space that restrains you, not me, I can’t wear this hat… “

Compared to Berserker and Illya, Saber seemed much calmer.

After trying twice, she decisively gave up the struggle and looked at Lin Zhongtian calmly.

“Who are you?”

“Just an ordinary passerby who was disturbed by you…”

Lin Zhongtian smiled, then continued to cast his gaze on the stone pillar, and said: “Let’s not talk about this first, let’s continue talking about the Great Holy Grail. Aren’t you curious why it exists here?”

“No, Emiya-san is just curious!”

Tohsaka Rin said solemnly: “The arrival of the Holy Grail requires the magic power accumulated in the underground spiritual veins of Fuyuki City. Ryudou Temple, or Mount Enzo, as the key core node of the earth’s veins, will have a magic circle to summon the Holy Grail. It is nothing Something incomprehensible.”

“It’s you, why do you want to reveal it now?”

“The Holy Grail War, the ritual of summoning the Holy Grail, has gone through hundreds of years of repairs before it finally became complete. If you interfere with the ritual without authorization, aren’t you afraid of any unpredictable consequences?”

Lin Zhongtian couldn’t help but laugh after hearing Tohsaka Rin’s words.

“Girl, from what you’re saying, you seem to think that the Holy Grail will not come until the outcome of the war is decided?”

“…” Tohsaka Rin was startled for a moment, frowned and said, “Yeah, is there any problem?”

Not only him, except Tong Shen, Lu Bu and Hong A, everyone else also looked at Lin Zhongtian in confusion.

Facing everyone’s doubtful glances, Lin Zhongtian smiled and shook his head: “This is a big problem!”

“Summoning the Holy Grail requires the Holy Grail War as a ritual. It is just a lie. To a certain extent, the Holy Grail does not need to be summoned at all, because it has already arrived before the war begins!”

“……How can this be?!”

Everyone, including Tohsaka Rin, looked horrified.

Saber, who had always been calm, had a look of disbelief on her face, and couldn’t help but ask: “If the Holy Grail has already arrived, why would there be a need to hold a ceremony called the Holy Grail War? Isn’t this unnecessary?”

After hearing Lin Zhongtian’s conversation with everyone, Tong Shen gradually came back to his senses.

He couldn’t help but glance at Lu Bu beside him, and found that he seemed to be looking at Lin Zhongtian seriously, but in fact his eyes were a little careless. He didn’t seem to care about what Lin Zhongtian said, and was just pretending to be shocked.

Recalling Sister R’s Medusa, the scene where she summoned Lu Bu, and the distinctive silver command spell on the back of her hand, Tong Shen’s eyes gradually became weird…

At this moment, Lin Zhongtian chuckled again and said: “Although summoning the Holy Grail is just a lie, the ceremony is not superfluous. Its purpose is not the Holy Grail itself, but its contents.”

“…Contents?”

Tohsaka Rin, Saber and others looked at each other.

Lin Zhongtian said lightly: “Although the magicians made the Holy Grail, they did not prepare its contents. Therefore, if you want to truly unleash the power of the Holy Grail, you must first summon its contents.”

“Summon…contents?”

Tohsaka Rin and Emiya Shirou looked at Lin Yi blankly.

Suddenly, the former seemed to have thought of something, and his blue pupils suddenly shrank.

“You mean, the purpose of the Holy Grail War is actually the Heroic Spirits?!”

“That’s right.”

Lin Zhongtian snapped his fingers and said with a smile: “The purest magic power used to fill the Holy Grail is the guardians on the side of the world, on the Seat of Heroic Spirits. Those souls who are called the strongest are their strongest souls. The longed-for contents of the Holy Grail!”

“As long as the souls of six heroic spirits are used as fillers, the power of the Holy Grail may truly achieve the effect of a universal wishing machine…”

Tosaka Rin took a few steps back and murmured in disbelief: “How could this happen…”

Lin Zhongtian didn’t care about the reaction of Tohsaka Rin and others. Instead, he took a step forward. His figure disappeared in the flickering silver light and appeared on the huge magic circle as if he was teleporting.

The next second, Lin Zhongtian’s loud and loud voice spread throughout the arena.

“Now, the Holy Grail has been filled with two souls, and four more souls are needed as sacrifices before it can truly appear in the world.”

“So, let’s fight, the heroic spirits from the other side of the world!”

“I will serve as a referee and watch you here…”

Lin Zhongtian’s figure was suspended high above the stone pillar, his dark eyes shining silver, overlooking the people below.

Tong Shen raised his head and stared blankly at the god-like figure.

Behind him, Lu Bu looked with fiery eyes at the great being who even Deng Yougang wanted to call boss.

“As expected of the boss, he is really willful!”

Deng Yougang complained in Lu Bu’s spirit body.

Lu Bu retorted: “No, I think this is in line with the status of this big boss!”

Deng Yougang rolled his eyes and complained: “It’s up to you. Anyway, you are the one who wants to be looked at as a monkey, not me.”

Lu Bu said proudly: “I will win and show him!”

Deng Yougang said speechlessly: “You are quite proud…”

At this moment, the figure hanging high in the sky suddenly stretched out his right hand again.

In an instant, the bright silver light burst out again, and three figures emerged from the audience seat opposite Rin Tohsaka and others.

Similar to the three Sabers who appeared just now, when these three people first appeared, their faces were full of shock.

Tohsaka Rin looked at the familiar figure among the three and couldn’t help blurting out: “Kirei?”

Tosaka Rin stared at Kotomine Kirei emerging in the silver light in astonishment, looking past him to the two people beside him.

The man on the left has bright blond hair, wearing a white shirt and a black sportswear jacket. He has his hands in his pockets and has a cold expression. On his face as handsome as a god, there are a pair of scarlet eyes.

The man on the right is their old friend, the blue-armored spearman holding a scarlet spear.

Although he couldn’t figure out the identity of the blond man on the left, the moment he saw the blue-armored spearman, Tohsaka Rin understood the identity of Kotomine Kirei.

“Are you Lancer’s master?!”

“…”

Hearing Tohsaka Rin’s words full of shock and anger, Kotomine Kirei did not answer, but frowned and looked at Lin Zhongtian in the sky.

After thinking for a moment, he raised his sleeves, revealing his large arms engraved with command spells, and spoke slowly.

“In the name of the Master, Lancer, return to the church!”

As he finished speaking, the command spell on Kotomine Kirei’s arm lit up red.

The blue-armored spearman standing behind him frowned slightly, and his body was swallowed up by a huge red magic power.

The next second, the magic power dissipated, but the figure of the blue-armored spearman still stood in place.

“…Can’t even the command spell take effect?”

Kotomine Kirei lowered his arms with some disappointment, looked at Lin Zhongtian in the sky and murmured to himself: “That’s force majeure.”

“Force majeure?” The blond man standing next to him frowned, stared at Lin Zhongtian, and murmured, “This time, I am afraid that I will rarely agree with your judgment. This guy in the sky is definitely not a human being. In the eyes of this king, he is God… no, greater than God, he is simply the world itself!”

Today, the community replaced the electricity meter and the leakage protection switch behind the meter. There was a power outage for several hours. Today’s update has been delayed until tonight. Sorry.
