Perhaps because she was locked up, or perhaps because she didn't want to bother with Giles who was going crazy beside her, Qingji really felt that Giles was more like a berserker than herself. In order to prevent herself from bothering Giles, she chose to talk to the girl over there who should be Illya.
"Why are you working with this man? Don't you wish to obtain the Holy Grail yourself?"
"I don't need the Holy Grail." Illya shook her head directly, and said it very bluntly, as if she had no interest in the Holy Grail at all.
This attitude startled Qingji, and she immediately said, "The Holy Grail can grant you any wish. Don't you have any wish you want to fulfill?"
If she could persuade the girl to destroy the magic circle from the outside, she and her people could still escape, so she now urgently hoped to make the girl her own.
In the end, Illya still shook her head: "I don't need the Holy Grail to fulfill any wishes, or rather, the Holy Grail cannot fulfill my wishes."
What Illya said made Qingji stunned again. She found it difficult to understand what the other party meant.
What does it mean that the Holy Grail cannot grant her wish?
Qingji naturally didn't know that the appearance of the Holy Grail meant that Illya would lose herself, so there was no chance for her to make a wish with the Holy Grail.
Just as she was thinking about how to get the girl to remove the magic circle for her, she heard another man's voice: "It's quite lively."
It was a blue-haired man wearing a T-shirt who didn't seem to be afraid of the cold at all. He glanced at the people who were locked up, chuckled, and handed the cup in his hand to Illya.
"Here, the hot cocoa you requested."
"Thank you." Illya thanked him, took the cup from the other person's hand, took a sip gently, and showed a happy look.
The person coming is a servant, and a spearman at that!
Almost in an instant, Qingji saw through the identity of the visitor, but this also made her alert.
"Didn't they say the spearman was dead? Why is he still here?" Qingji's heart became more and more confused. At this moment, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, who had been trying hard with Giles to break the magic circle blockade, looked at the man and asked in confusion: "Cu Chulainn?!"
Hassan the Hundred Faces has already learned from Kotomine Kirei the true identity of the dead spearman, which is Cu Chulainn.
But if Cu Chulainn is dead, then who is in front of him now? !
"It's me. You're all under Kotomine Kirei's command now?" Cu Chulainn said, shaking his head. "It's not that bad, is it? Adding several new Servants all at once, and all of them being under the same person, this is too..."
As he said this, he suddenly remembered that almost all the servants he had summoned were working under Morpheus, and he felt that his guess was actually possible.
According to Morpheus, the purpose of the Holy Grail is to absorb servants and temporarily seal them up in the same state as when they return to the Throne of Heroes. In this way, the passage from this world to the outside world can be stabilized.
Now that several servants are unable to fight, it is entirely possible that the Holy Grail will directly throw several needed servants to the opposite side of Morpheus and give them all to one person.
"So, the Holy Grail really does have its own consciousness..." Cu Chulainn muttered to himself, then glanced at the magic circle surrounding them and smiled: "Unfortunately, with the help of this magic circle, the Holy Grail cannot achieve its goal."
At this moment, Diarmuid walked in. Without any hesitation, he entered the magic circle directly. Seeing this, Qingji opened her mouth and finally asked, "You surrender?"
Giles now loudly questioned, "Why don't you fight? How can you bring Joan of Arc back with this kind of behavior?!"
"I have nothing to do with Joan of Arc." Diarmait said with a frown, then he ignored Giles who was obviously a little crazy and turned to look at Morpheus.
There was a clear feeling of "Don't forget what you said" in those eyes.
Morpheus smiled, then opened his mouth and began to chant a spell.
Morpheus had used this kind of magic of expulsion once before, and it was used against Gilgamesh, so he was familiar with it this time.
At this moment, under the mysterious power, a passage was torn open, and it was not through the Holy Grail. The crack was torn open by a higher power. This power tore a gap between the present world and the outside world as a passage. Then there was another powerful force. This force directly rolled up the four people inside the magic circle and threw them directly towards the gap!
Even if the Holy Grail wanted to intercept it at this time, there was no way to do so, because the power of the Holy Grail was completely blocked outside. The inside and outside of the magic circle turned into completely different worlds. The few people inside the magic circle were quickly sucked into the gap and began to return to their respective Heroic Thrones.
While Morpheus was doing this, he continued to observe Illya, watching if there were any changes in the girl.
So, as the four people were thrown into the rift, no changes appeared on Illya's body. This discovery made Morpheus secretly relieved.
"This fight is so easy! It doesn't feel like the Holy Grail War at all." Illya took a sip of hot cocoa and commented, "Uncle, can't you just give them a break? A fight needs to be evenly matched for a good look!"
"I'm not filming a TV show or a movie, there's no need to be evenly matched."
“But I’m watching a show!”
"Then you can continue watching slowly. I still have some things to deal with, so I'll leave first!" Morpheus smiled and shook his head, walking outside.
He wanted to go to the church to see what Giles, a magician, was doing.
If the other party is preparing a sacrifice, then you must kill him before the sacrifice is killed!
Chapter 105: Single Soldier Breakthrough
The moment Kiyohime and other servants were expelled from this world by Morpheus, Kotomine Kirei felt that the connection between himself and these people had been severed.
It was at this moment that Kotomine Kirei confirmed one thing.
“They failed.”
Kotomine Kirei frowned slightly. The development of the events was somewhat beyond his imagination. It was obvious that he should have the advantage, but why did he fail?
Looking at Robin Hood and Astolfo who had just been teleported back not long ago, Kotomine Kirei frowned even more tightly.
The actions of both sides failed, and four servants were lost at once. Now, he only had three servants left.
"It seems that their main force is indeed in the Emiya family..." Robin Hood said, and told Kotomine Kirei everything he had encountered. After hearing what Robin Hood and Astolfo had encountered, Kotomine Kirei began to think.
"In other words, there was originally only one Servant on the school side, who could have easily eliminated the Master, but an accident occurred. This accident prevented Robin Hood from killing the other side's Master immediately, leading to Saber's arrival, thus turning the situation into a two-on-two situation."
Kotomine Kirei thought of this and quickly asked, "So, what was the accident?"
"Of course you just don't know your junior sister." Robin Hood immediately complained. She was obviously Kotomine Kirei's junior sister, and Kotomine Kirei was the one who managed her family business, but he had no idea about her strength!
Hearing this, Kotomine Kirei couldn't help but become interested: "Oh? Is there anything about her that exceeds my expectations?"
Robin Hood sighed secretly at the fact that Kotomine Kirei showed an expression of wanting to know some gossip even though he was at a great disadvantage, and told him in detail about the person he was facing, Toosaka Rin.
"She possesses a unique magic that allows her to instantly construct a powerful formation that protects her and her companions. Even with my relentless attack, I was unable to break it.
"If you had put more people on our side at the beginning, maybe we could have worked together to break through this defense, but I don't think there is any hope of breaking it even with Astolfo and me alone.
"But I'm a ranger after all, so I have good observation skills. She can perform such powerful magic mainly because of the gem on her wrist. Why didn't you mention that gem at the beginning?!"
"A gem? On the wrist?" Kotomine Kirei pondered for a moment, a look of sudden realization dawning on him. "That's their family heirloom, passed down to her by her father. But in reality, it's just a gem that can continuously draw magical power, so it doesn't have to be used once and then thrown away. Perhaps its greatest use to her is just saving money."
Kotomine Kirei explained what he knew about the Moon Goddess's Gem, then asked, "Why do you think that thing is the key to casting spells?"
Robin Hood said, "The aura on that gem is the same as the protective barrier she used. I think this is enough reason."
"But as far as I know, this gem has never shown any powerful performance in her father's hands. If you are truly sure that Rin's strength this time mainly comes from that gem..." Kotomine Kirei thought, shook his head and said, "It is already difficult to get this thing now. Moreover, we only have three Servants now, so we must be careful."
Astolfo immediately raised his hand. "They seem so aggressive. They have no intention of negotiating and just attacked directly. Can't they think of other ways?"
"There will be a solution soon, Mr. Astolfo. Please wait patiently. In order to rescue Joan of Arc from the world of amnesia, we must be cautious." Giles, who looked like a witch, said, making a hehehe sound.
"In fact, I have made some preparations with the help of the Master. As long as we go to this place, which is an ocean, we can use those who are still alive as sacrifices to summon the sea monster. If necessary, we can sacrifice the entire city together, and then we can definitely summon the most powerful monster!
"As long as we have the help of powerful monsters, it doesn't matter even if we are missing four servants. We can easily deal with this opponent!"
Giles spoke these words in a relaxed tone, without any hesitation or sympathy for the ordinary people who were to be sacrificed by him, and there was not even any madness on his face.
It was a very ordinary expression, without any ripples of emotion, but it was this expression that made Robin Hood feel a chill in his heart.
There wasn't even a fervor, not a ripple of excitement. He spoke of sacrificing an entire city as if it were as simple as eating and drinking water. How could this guy even be a Heroic Spirit? Are you sure he's not a demon?!
Thinking of this, Robin Hood could only think about it. The one who made the decision here was his master, and he was just a servant who came to do things. And it was obvious that the priest in front of him also agreed with this plan.
But he soon discovered a problem: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by those people who are not dead yet? Did you arrest anyone?"
"No, in fact, the Master showed me the basement. There were many people in there. Although they were not in good condition, they were not dead yet. There was still blood in their bodies. They could still breathe, think, and have their own souls. As long as we use their blood and souls together as a sacrifice, we can directly summon the sea demon!"
Upon hearing this, Robin Hood immediately looked at Kotomine Kirei with shock in his eyes.
What's going on? Could it be that this church has always had a tradition of kidnapping and imprisoning people?
"Those who were supposed to have died ten years ago were saved, and then used their bodies to allow the Ancient King to survive in this world. These were all the actions of the Ancient King. I only watched and did not interfere."
Kotomine Kirei smiled and said, "Besides, they are in so much pain right now. Even if they die as sacrifices, if they can die quickly, it will be a relief for them now. At least they won't have to suffer any more."
Although he didn't know the specifics, Robin Hood could imagine a bit just by listening to the description. Giles said with great emotion and exaggeration: "My Master, you are so kind. For these pitiful humans, being sacrificed directly is indeed a relief!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud noise and the church door was kicked open!
A man in a trench coat and a top hat appeared at the church door. He looked at them with a smile on his face. "You describe your evil deeds so refreshingly and elegantly. You are truly shameless, everyone."
Seeing the figure that appeared here, the group of people immediately knew that the enemy had knocked on the door. Kotomine Kirei looked around and said with a smile: "Bowman, I don't know why you have such great confidence, but charging here alone like this, are you sure it's not reckless?"
His smile was filled with confidence. "This is a church. Not only are there several Servants here, but it also hides secrets. For you, this is also a place that should not be used as a battlefield."
"Don't worry, I have great confidence in myself. None of your tricks can interfere with me!" Morpheus said, taking a step forward. With just one step, he turned into a hurricane and swept towards the people in the room!
This is the control of the wind. The wind-related techniques combined with Morpheus's physical strength can reach supersonic speeds. What he shows is the ultimate destructive power!
In just a moment, the benches on both sides of the church were blown over and broken by the air waves caused by the sonic boom!
The floor paved with solid stones also cracked and even completely cracked under this hurricane!
Morpheus's speed was simply too fast, so fast that it was completely beyond the ability of ordinary humans to react.
But Kotomine Kirei is not an ordinary person after all. He is a combat priest who has experienced many battles and an exorcist. As early as the moment Morpheus appeared at the door, Kotomine Kirei had already performed his magic. Relying on the divine power and combining it with the physical skills he learned, his speed and observation ability also increased dramatically.
So, he barely avoided Morpheus's attack, and at the same time, he swung his hands violently, and saw two daggers condensed with magic power flew out and stabbed towards Morpheus!
Almost at the same time, Robin Hood jumped back to create some distance, took out his bow with the arrow already on it. As he retreated, he pulled back with his right hand, fully stretched the bowstring, aimed, and shot!
The arrow was surrounded by wind, and under the power of the wind, its speed increased further, and it flew towards Morpheus. At this moment, Robin Hood's attack and Kotomine Kirei's attack coordinated with each other. Once they hit the target, they would definitely cause great damage to the target!
However, Morpheus did not dodge or evade, but rushed straight forward, facing these attacks and rushed in front of Kotomine Kirei.
He stretched out his hand, grabbed Kotomine Kirei's head, and pulled it hard, smashing the other's body directly to the ground!
At this time, Astolfo, who was farther away, had not even reacted yet, and Giles was unable to make any response. He was even still chanting spells and had not finished reciting them.
Morpheus actually rushed forward and grabbed Kotomine Kirei directly despite the attacks of his own group. This development was a development that no one had expected.
Looking at Morpheus who had knocked Kotomine Kirei to the ground and then kicked him, and seeing that the opponent didn't even have any injuries on his body, several people couldn't help but feel their scalps tingling.
Robin Hood, who was the only one to launch an attack, was extremely shocked when he saw this scene.
His attack just now wasn't just a random strike, but one that concentrated a lot of power. If he had just dodged it, it would have been fine, but he charged straight at him without dodging, and he didn't even suffer a single injury. How on earth did he do that?!
"Father Kotomine Kirei, right? I'm not looking for you just to prevent you from doing anything bad with those people below, but more because of personal grudges." Morpheus said, and stepped on him without hesitation.
He controlled the force of his kick very well. He didn't kill the opponent directly, nor did he injure him, but it was definitely enough to cause pain.
Hearing Kotomine Kirei's muffled roar, Morpheus reached out his hand again and grabbed the other party. Then with a snap of his fingers, his magic power turned into a rope and tied the other party up.
"I don't remember any conflicts between you and me. Although you are Rin's servant, there is no hatred between Rin and me, right?" Kotomine Kirei said, even seeming unusually sincere.
Hearing this, Morpheus sighed, then glanced at the Servant beside him who was afraid to act rashly because he had captured Kotomine Kirei, and sneered, "Let's not talk about the hatred between you and Rin. After all, you killed his father and even indirectly killed his mother. I don't even bother to talk about these.
"Let's talk about the conflict between you and me. You killed my sister. There's nothing wrong with me seeking revenge on you, right?"
"Your sister? Could it be that your sister is some illegal magician?" Kotomine Kirei asked. He didn't even ask how the other party knew about the past. Perhaps because he heard that he had killed the other party's sister, Kotomine Kirei's expression became even more joyful.
"My name is Morpheus Fraga Macremis."
Hearing this name, Kotomine Kirei was stunned. His expression was so confused, as if he had heard something incredible. Then, it took him a long time to react.
"You're Bazett's brother?!"
"Yes."
"You're actually a future Servant?!" This discovery made Kotomine Kirei extremely excited. He even asked directly, "So, who will be the winner of this Holy Grail War?"
He then shook his head. "The course of history must have been different. The Holy Grail actually reacted this way. This means that the problem with the Holy Grail this time was caused by you. Since you came from the future, you relied on your own prophecy to make many plans, right?"
Morpheus listened to Kotomine Kirei's analysis, he simply raised his hand, and then condensed a shining lightning spear in his hand.
This lightning spear contains the power of Zeus' thunder, which is the thunder that cleanses away filth and evil forces. Morpheus threw the spear out almost the moment he condensed it!
"boom!"
Several servants had no time to stop him, and the tied-up Kotomine Kirei naturally couldn't dodge, and was instantly blown away by the thunder!
After killing the priest with one blow, Morpheus snorted, "I don't have time to explain to you!"
Chapter 106 Sea Devil Tentacles
The death of a Servant will not cause any harm to the Master, and the death of the Master will not cause the Servant to disappear immediately.
Servants are individuals who need magic power to act. Although their magic power is usually supplied by the Master, they actually accumulate magic power themselves. Unless they face situations that consume a lot of magic power, even if the Master dies, their own magic power is enough to last for a period of time.
Among them, servants who are archers generally have stronger mobility after leaving their masters.
For example, the future Shirou Emiya or Gilgamesh.
As for Morpheus himself, there is no way to talk about him. He is really too special. Not to mention that he is an archer now, even if he is not an archer but a magician who consumes a lot of magic power, he can completely get rid of his master and stay in this world.
