Filial piety: the supreme emperor

"Sima Yi..."

This news was like adding insult to injury for the Second Emperor. He was hesitating whether to take action. If he had known this, why would he have inquired about this news in the first place?

Since the first Holy Grail War, the Second Emperor has become more and more comfortable with Kong Ming, unlocking more of his abilities and treasures. This is not only due to the passage of time, but also includes his countless efforts. For example, the Kong Ming lantern and the small Bagua formation floating behind him are all witnesses of his hard work.

Long before the Holy Grail War, the Second Emperor unlocked Kong Ming's second Noble Phantasm, [Departure to the Imperial Court]. Strictly speaking, this is not an offensive Noble Phantasm, but a purely auxiliary tool, but in the eyes of the Second Emperor, it has far-reaching strategic value. It can summon Heroic Spirits to help in the battle. Unlike the Heroic Spirits without Noble Phantasms in the King's Army, or the Heroic Spirits restricted on the Argo, the Heroic Spirits summoned by this Noble Phantasm have complete attributes and all Noble Phantasms. In addition, because of Kong Ming's loyalty, emperors of all dynasties praised [Departure to the Imperial Court], so it was not only the Shu Han army that was summoned, but also the ministers of all dynasties who recognized Kong Ming's achievements.

This is also one of the reasons why the Second is confident that he can face Iskandar again and show his growth. Because it has another effect - giving ordinary servants the spiritual foundation, allowing the heroic spirit to come to the world as a pseudo-servant. This ability is similar to Dumas's "Musketees' Masquerade", which is a common means for caster servants to strengthen their masters. However, due to the special nature of this Holy Grail War, which is limited to melees between servants, the Second has always believed that he cannot use this function. In fact, he once tried to use this treasure in private, but it only summoned the outline of the heroic spirit and stopped. And after many experiments, there were no problems. But by chance, when the Second was conducting an experiment, Flat suddenly broke into it, resulting in an accident. And it was this accident that caused the golem to lose control, and eventually led to the current situation. The power was out of control. The Second restrained the magic power in time, without causing serious consequences, but just doubled Flat's homework. But now it seems that he was wrong.

He hadn't heard that Lanis was possessed by Sima Yi before, so he didn't think much about it. But now that he knew, he deliberately detected the magic aura on Lanis and indeed found traces of [Departure to the Imperial Academy]. He finally understood what the Rider icon sent by Meili meant. It was not a promise, but a warning. It was not "Iskander will be the enemy Rider in the next Holy Grail War", but "Your adopted sister has become a Rider"...

Couldn't these wise men and magicians in history be more direct? The Second was so distressed that his stomach ached. He subconsciously moved away from Lanis. He felt that he might become the first heroic spirit to collapse due to stomachache.

"That won't do... I've always suspected it, but now it's confirmed. I just don't understand why Kong Ming chose you."

At this time, Lanis, or Sima Yi, spoke.

“!”

After hearing what Lanis said, the Second Emperor immediately realized that it was not her voice, but Sima Yi's. Because the difference between their voices was so great, the Second Emperor could tell at once. He quickly summoned his feather fan and said to Lanis, "Humph, I asked him questions in person, but this guy didn't have any basic manners! Hey, possessed guy, hurry up and call out that rational monster!" However, Sima Yi's voice came out of Lanis's mouth. Although it was a little discordant, it was just a teenager's voice after all. However, the Second Emperor had no way to meet Sima Yi's expectations. Because only when he asked Kong Ming for advice would Kong Ming give an answer. Since the end of the first Holy Grail War, Kong Ming had never said a word. No matter how he called, the other party had no response, obviously not wanting to pay attention to Sima Yi. Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang had fought many times and knew each other very well, so he certainly knew what Zhuge Liang meant, so he fell silent. In fact, it was not only the Second Emperor who was troubled, but even Sima Yi himself was confused. The thing he relied on to appear in the present world was Kong Ming's treasure, and the person he possessed happened to be the sister of Kong Ming's possessed person. This feeling was really too complicated.

"Forget it. It's the same to defeat you, the possessor. Zhuge Liang, you can hide if you want!"

Sima Yi's eyes were determined, and Lanis's magic power instantly increased.

"The three kingdoms will eventually belong to Jin. This is the will of heaven and it is also my will."

"I am destiny. If heaven wants to destroy you, who can save you? - Zhuge Liang, you will perish here [Jin]!"

Not only his magic power, Sima Yi's spiritual base value is also soaring wildly!

His second treasure, [JIN], originated from his preparation for his son Sima Zhao and grandson Sima Yan to unify the dynasty. When using this treasure, Sima Yi is no longer just a military strategist...

On the bustling urban battlefield, Sima Yi's secret weapon, [JIN], was not activated immediately. Its power depends on how long he exists in the Holy Grail War, and it continues to grow with time. However, once it is activated, its potential will stop growing. At this time, the war has only entered the second day, and the power Sima Yi can exert is only one-third of its full power.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Sima Yi gave the order, and a large number of soldiers appeared out of thin air like ghosts, instantly surrounding El-Melloi II. These soldiers raised their weapons high in the air and shouted in unison, the sound resounding through the sky, deafening.

After two days of careful preparation, Sima Yi could only summon the army of Jin. He was not yet able to summon those legendary heroes. However, this was enough. Because he knew very well that Zhuge Liang, who had defeated him, would never easily help this possessed man. Facing this opponent who only had a part of Zhuge Liang's power, his Hunyuan Yiqi Formation and his army could easily deal with it.

Sima Yi thought to himself, "How is Lanis now? Is she safe?"

El-Melloi II frowned. He was not too worried about his own safety. Failure would only mean returning to the original world. But if Lanis was completely controlled, it would be a big trouble.

"Don't worry, I am very satisfied with this girl. It is her voluntary transaction that I am temporarily borrowing her body..."

Sima Yi's eyes flashed with cunning. Whether planning for the enemy was a legitimate means or not was a matter of opinion. However, he and Lannis agreed on the Holy Grail. He enjoyed achieving his goals through wits rather than making wishes directly.

He would not rely on the Holy Grail unless it was necessary. For example, if he could really obtain the Holy Grail, he would immediately eliminate those disgusting poems. However, by calculating his teammates and activating [JIN], he knew that he had no chance of obtaining the Holy Grail.

"Tsk...it seems like this is the only way."

El-Melloi II was relieved to learn that Lanis was safe, and he believed that Sima Yi had no reason to lie about this matter.

Now, he had to deal with the Jin soldiers summoned by Sima Yi. Although it was estimated that the strength of each soldier was only equivalent to that of the Dragon Fang Soldier, a half-baked servant like him could easily sweep them away. But obviously, the opponent's treasure was far more than a few hundred people, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands were possible. Moreover, he was still in Sima Yi's formation.

Fighting against a large army in a formation was undoubtedly foolish. He had no choice but to activate Zhuge Liang's second treasure, [Departure to the Imperial Academy].

"bring it on!"

Although El-Melloi II borrowed the power of Zhuge Liang and his magic power reached A+, he still couldn't perform [Departure to the Imperial Court], so he used the three Command Spells on the back of his hand without hesitation. With magic power surging, he knelt down and chanted.

"The late emperor died before he could complete his career..."

"Stop him!"

Upon hearing this, Sima Yi's face changed drastically. While commanding his soldiers to attack, he threw out the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid from his sleeve and chanted an attack spell.

"Cut!"

As a talented military strategist, it was not surprising that he learned how to use the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid in a short period of time, but he forgot an important point. The Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid turned into a sharp blade and rushed straight to El-Melloi II, splitting the nearby Jin soldiers in two, and then turned into Mercury Sister Dou, giving El-Melloi II a thumbs up.

Thank you, Trimmawu.

El-Melloi II was in the middle of chanting and couldn't say much. He just thanked Mercury with his eyes.

"Trimmau, Lanis clearly told you to follow my orders!"

Sima Yi didn't expect that the magic gift suit, which should have been easy to use, would fail at the critical moment and even turn against him.

Is this the price of scheming against your teammates?

"…Now that I am leaving, I burst into tears as I write this letter, and I don’t know what to say."

After a moment, El-Melloi II finished chanting, and the huge amount of magic power in his body was exhausted due to the use of the Command Seals. Three blurry figures appeared behind him. Although they had not yet taken shape, Sima Yi could feel that these three were powerful servants.

Seeing the weapons in their hands, Sima Yi's face turned pale and he realized that he had miscalculated.

"Kong Ming, you've worked hard. Let's leave it to the three of us brothers next."

The leader was gentle and elegant, holding a double-edged sword and riding a Dilu horse. He was none other than Liu Bei, the Emperor Zhaolie of Shu Han.

"Strike against the enemy with justice, and bring peace to the people. Guan Yu is here, and you shall die!"

Following closely behind, a man with long red beard, green armor and a green hat riding on Red Hare, holding a Green Dragon Crescent Blade, is Guan Yu, the Chinese Martial Saint.

"Zhang Fei from Yan is here. Who dares to fight me for three hundred rounds?"

The last one to rush out, holding a Zhangba Snake Spear, with leopard whiskers and eyes, and riding a dark cloud stepping on snow horse, was Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide.

El-Melloi II used three Command Seals to summon the Taoyuan Brothers, who easily defeated hundreds of thousands of Jin soldiers.

"I surrender……"

Sima Yi sighed, took note of this lesson, and turned to leave.

At this point, the red team's Rider Lanis left the stage.
