Zongman: Starting from the Chaos Orb
Chapter 177 The Great Holy Grail to be Summoned
With full magic power and the support of Avalon, she was undoubtedly terrifyingly strong at this moment. Facing Lancelot at this moment, she only stabbed her sword of victory into the opponent's chest after a few sword clashes, nailing him to the wall.
Slowly taking off the opponent's helmet, a pale and sickly handsome face was revealed, but Artoria remained unmoved.
Looking at the other person's still somewhat crazy eyes, Artoria spoke slowly, seriously and solemnly, just like the tone of a former British commander.
"Sir Lancelot, in the name of King Arthur, you coveted the princess. You are guilty of death. You have plunged the country into war again. You are guilty of treason and have no loyalty. You are guilty of death."
Such cold words made Lancelot tremble all over, and his crazy eyes regained some clarity. He stared blankly at the perfect king in front of him, whom he had once admired so much, and a hint of relief and relaxation flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, my king, I am guilty..."
Lancelot was deeply in love with Princess Guinevere, and this love was irresistible to him.
He knew very well that his feelings for the queen violated the knight's loyalty to the king and the social ethics, but the power of emotion made him fall into a deep struggle.
Deep down in his heart, the balance between love and loyalty kept swinging.
Lancelot has a deep respect for Artoria.
As a king, Lancelot admired Altria's kingly demeanor, justice, and adherence to chivalry.
Even after his affair with Princess Guinevere was exposed, his respect for Altria did not completely disappear. He understood that his actions had hurt Altria, and at the same time, he understood Altria's punishment for him.
But there was no punishment, not even any blame; his king was too perfect.
It was so perfect that it pushed him into the abyss. The torn loyalty and love drove him crazy, and every minute and every second made him suffer.
"My king...you don't understand human nature..."
The king who did not understand human nature made Lancelot fall into complete despair.
Lancelot also desires the Holy Grail because he hopes to cleanse his sins through the Holy Grail.
He understood that his betrayal had caused him to lose his pure knight's heart, and that the Holy Grail, according to legend, had the power of purification and redemption.
He believed that obtaining the Holy Grail would make up for the damage he had caused to Altria, Guinevere, and the entire Knights.
But now, none of this matters.
He finally waited for it.
The king's judgment is also the king's mercy.
Looking at Lancelot, who was already in tears, Altria's tone softened a little.
"So..."
"As Artoria, I'm sorry. The King of Conquerors was right. I only saved you, the people, but I didn't guide them..."
"It plunges you once again into the abyss of war and suffering..."
"No! In my eyes, King, you are right! There is nothing wrong with what you did!"
Listening to Altria's slightly low voice, he grasped the blade of the Sword of Victory that was still piercing his heart, and his tone seemed a little anxious.
He tried to use his words to maintain Artoria's dignity and authority. In his heart, Artoria would always be the perfect king worthy of his admiration and following, even if he had committed an unforgivable crime.
"Yeah, that's why I failed because of you guys thinking that..."
Artoria did not say this, but looked at Lancelot, who was gradually turning into magic fragments because his life force was cut off.
Instead, she smiled.
"It's alright, Lancelot, let's meet again in the future."
Such strange words made the berserk knight look a little surprised, and he stared at his king blankly.
Looking at the other person's expression, Altria didn't explain anything, but just nodded slightly.
"This is a promise given to me by a god from another world. We will definitely meet again in the future."
"I see... I look forward to fighting alongside you again, King..."
As Lancelot's words gradually faded, his soul returned to the Throne of Heroes, leaving Artoria standing there alone.
Altria was indifferent to this. She drew out the Sword of Victory, then took off the small backpack on her back. After searching for a while, she finally took out a pure white necklace.
This was also the magic prop given to her by Dongfang Zang. It was ordinary when it was first given to her, but at this moment, it had begun to sparkle with brilliance. The pendant of the necklace was actually a small holy grail.
After taking a look, Altria nodded slowly.
"Well...according to Mr. Dongfang's next plan..."
"Heading to the church..."
Then he pushed out a motorcycle and stepped on the accelerator to the floor.
"boom!"
As the roar of the engine pierced the night sky, the entire motorcycle seemed to transform into a dazzling light in the darkness, speeding towards the church where Kotomine Kirei was.
The speed was so fast that it seemed to tear the darkness apart, leaving only a vague light and shadow flickering in the air.
In a short while, Altria arrived at the church at lightning speed.
She took firm steps as she entered the auditorium, and immediately saw Kotomine Kirei was there.
Even Gilgamesh was there, and it was obvious that he had completed the duel with the King of Conquerors and successfully won the final victory.
The two men's eyes fell on Artoria, who was dressed in military uniform. Before they could say anything, Artoria threw the pure white necklace in her hand towards Kotomine Kirei.
Kotomine Kirei grabbed the flying necklace and then looked at it carefully.
When he saw the small holy grail in the pendant, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly. He could keenly feel the surging magical fluctuations in this small holy grail.
"This is the Lesser Holy Grail. It has accumulated the magical power of five Servants and is now ready to begin the Greater Holy Grail ritual."
"I see..."
Kotomine Kirei looked at Artoria deeply. Without saying anything more, he hurried towards the small magic circle in the church basement. At this moment, his mind was completely occupied by the Holy Grail ceremony that was about to begin, and he didn't even care about Gilgamesh beside him.
This was the work of Dongfang Zang. As early as in Shenzhou, Dongfang Zang had already condensed a brand new body for the Holy Grail Alice, and sent her soul into the Hongmeng world for perfect completion.
As for the original artificial human body, it was made into this necklace by Dongfang Zang, and it continued to be responsible for the Holy Grail's function of collecting defeated heroic spirits.
