They've already fought their way through the Holy Grail War, and you still call them dragons?

In addition, the Holy Church troops contacted by Uesugi Yue also joined the support operation.

"No, it's not. They're talking about the second line of defense from Tokyo Bay."

Miyamoto Shio projected several photos onto the large screen. "This is exactly what I was about to inform you about. The buoys deployed by the Tokyo Meteorological Bureau are equipped with infrared cameras and positioning systems. We've previously used their data to monitor tidal anomalies and potential tsunamis."

"But now the buoys have picked up something extra, which will also come up to Tokyo with the tide."

Yuan Zhisheng stared at the big screen intently, his face, which was already filled with worry, became even darker. The blurry images showed that tens of thousands of monsters were floating up from the sea. They were not newly appeared monsters, but a dense group of corpses with snake tails intertwined and swimming around!

Damn, how could they forget this stuff!

The complete awakening of God not only means the end of the White King's descendants, but also means the awakening of the ancient subjects in the lost ancient city that sank to the bottom of the sea! They will instinctively swim to the shore to pay homage to God!

But why were they not awakened when the gods escaped and killed people a while ago, but awakened at this time?

Could it be that this moment was more important than before? Was God preparing something crucial?

Yuan Zhisheng suppressed the confusion in his heart, pressed his slightly swollen temples, and returned his gaze to the big screen showing the terrifying number of corpse guards. It turned out that this was what the Kassel Equipment Department meant when they prepared more firepower support!

"Then cooperate with the secret party in this regard..."

Bang! The door opened.

Nono walked in with an anxious look on her face, "Do you know where Emiya went?"

"You're... Nono?" Gen Chisheng looked up. He had met Nono before, and his only impression of her was that she looked a bit like Eri. Otherwise, they weren't very familiar with each other. "Can't you contact Emiya?"

Gen Chisei said as he tried to contact Emiya. Sure enough, his phone showed a message that he was "out of the circle." "Strange, he shouldn't be in any trouble..."

Logically speaking, he would rather believe that the Self-Defense Forces' Air Force would be wiped out in the monster suppression and corpse-guarding tide annihilation operations than believe that Emiya would encounter any accident quietly!

"...Just tell me where he went before he left!"

"The direction should be south. He said he was going home, but Miss Nono came from that location, right? Either you missed it, or Emiya encountered something along the way, causing him to change direction."

Yuan Zhisheng made a brief analysis and kindly attached a piece of news.

"Also, before he left, he discussed his action plan with Miss Charlotte. Perhaps she might know something additional. Currently, she's conducting a leyline survey with the family's drilling team."

"Charlotte?" Nono was a little unfamiliar with the name. It seemed like Emiya had never mentioned it before, so it probably wasn't someone he knew...

However, Yuan Zhisheng added a paragraph:

"She and Emiya are probably close friends. They have a great understanding (referring to the prosthetic limb experiment) and should have a close relationship. She also gets along well with my sister Eri. In short, Miss Charlotte isn't a suspicious person and is quite capable. Miss Nono can try to trust her...even though she's a little young."

"It turned out to be... a woman who was close to Emiya... and I had no idea?"

Yuan Zhisheng was baffled to see that after Nuonuo finished listening to his words, his mood didn't improve, but instead his face turned gloomy. Strange, he thought he was quite careful and meticulous in his work, so he shouldn't have said anything wrong, right?

But he couldn't get the reason for Nuonuo's mood change from her.

Gen Chisei quickly put this matter behind him. After leaving in a hurry under Nono's feet, he continued to be busy. His younger brother Gen Chisei told him the information about when he was the leader of the Demon Clan as another personality, Kazama Ruri.

After an internal meeting, the heads of the families unanimously decided not to devote their energy to dealing with the fierce ghosts for the time being.

Instead, he used Minamoto no Chitose to "pretend" to be Ruri Kazama and announced that the king general was dead. He took over all the members of the Oni Clan in the name of the senior cadre Dragon King. After suppressing and detaining the radicals who were seeking to become gods, he instructed the remaining members of the Oni Clan to temporarily put aside their hostility and fight against the gods together with the Eight Snake Families.

This was something that Genjiro couldn't do on his own; he lacked the confidence of Kazama Ruri. So, he was just a mouthpiece, responsible for distributing the orders to the Oni Clan on behalf of the family.

However, how to make sure all these things were arranged in an orderly manner without any mistakes required careful consideration. Yuan Zhisheng was concerned about every detail of these matters, one by one. Suddenly, he slapped his head:

"Master Miyamoto, there's one more thing. Regarding the whereabouts of God, does the secret party have any news?"

"Yes, they believe that a certain location in Bunkyo Ward is the location of the throne of God, and that a 'black moon' phenomenon has appeared there. Ange also stated that their Servant is the most suitable Servant to kill the Gods, and their equipment department has equipped the Master with the latest weaponry to best suit the battlefield of the War of Gods."

When Miyamoto Shio said this, he was quite unconvinced. The Ganliu Research Institute he represented believed that its technical strength was not inferior to that of the Kassel Equipment Department, and those people in the Equipment Department were just cowards who were afraid of death.

Hence the slight contempt in the tone.

Can a group of otakus come up with some great invention that will save the world?

"Newly-armed forces?"

Yuan Zhisheng was a little curious, "I wonder if there will be a chance to see it."

----

Nono learned that Emiya was originally leaving in the direction of home, but she still did not give up and asked Melusina to take her on a flight back, but of course she got nothing along the way.

"Really not?"

Although she felt that Nono's question was a bit anxious, Melusina still shook her head. She could not sense any familiar breath, and Emiya was not on this road.

Nuonuo stood there, enduring the torment, and finally made up her mind, "Let's go and find that so-called Miss Charlotte."

Go and see how much she really is.

According to the location given by Minamoto no Chisei, Charlotte also explored the earth veins in the area of ​​"Hongjing", the outlet where the Tama River and the Akagi River merge, which is about 20 kilometers away from the center of Tokyo.

This distance is difficult to reach in the current terrible black fog, but Melyusina is not an ordinary person. She only flies for a short while and is able to reach the scene quickly.

As they drew closer to their destination, the densely fogged mountainous landscape unfolded before their eyes. This place was rarely visited, even the vast swarms of demons and monsters passed by, but that didn't mean it was peaceful.

The underground river Akagi River flows from Yamanashi Prefecture to Tokyo through here. The Tama River is also a large river, originating from a 2,000-meter-high mountain in Yamanashi Prefecture, flowing through Kanagawa Prefecture and finally into Tokyo Bay.

Unlike the Tama River that flows majestically on the ground, the Akagi River is formed by the confluence of two streams.

One stream is scalding hot water flowing through Mount Fuji, heated by the magma, while the other is cold water flowing from underground. When the cold and hot water mix, they make a loud noise, like thunder from underground. Therefore, the nearby place is also called "Thunder Valley".

Residents near Yamanashi Prefecture said that the eight heads of the legendary Yamata no Orochi drank water from eight rivers, one of which was the Tama River. After the Yamata no Orochi was killed, its blood soaked the land within a radius of dozens of miles, so the nearby ground was also called the "True Red Soil."

Melusina brought Nono to the True Red Land, the Red Well not far from Thunder Valley.

From a distance, the two of them saw a little blonde girl bossing around and telling adults who were several heads taller than her to do their work. She seemed to have become the big sister of the drilling organization.

"I'm asking you a question! Did you design this well? Speak louder, Engineer Sakurai!"

"Yes!" A young man from the Sakurai family shuddered at first, then answered Charlotte's question with full energy:

"More than a decade ago, the Tokyo government commissioned Maruyama Construction to build a new underground drainage system. The project was called G-Cans, codenamed Iron Dome Temple. The Iron Dome Temple system extends all the way to the outlet of the Akage River."

"To accommodate the excess water from the Akaguni and Tama rivers, we built the No. 13 water storage well right here, at the outlet. Because the water is often deep red, it's nicknamed the 'Red Well.'"

"Then it seems you should be familiar with the engineering blueprints here. Send me all the relevant information you can find," Charlotte instructed bluntly. "Also, how is your tunnel boring machine progressing? How deep have you dug?"

"Report, we've reached 250 meters underground and are still going deeper..."

While Sakurai was busy collecting information, he did not forget to speed up the drilling progress.

"Okay! That's it. Have your people stop the tunnel boring machine and I'll take care of the rest of the work." Charlotte's order was unexpected.

"This..." Engineer Sakurai was taken aback. He had received direct orders from the head of the family to cooperate with this young lady. What was going on? How had he displeased the young lady?

As for the nonsense about leaving it to the other party to deal with, Sakurai just thought that the young lady was joking. He thought that Charlotte was an ordinary person, and believed that even if the other party was a child prodigy with a smart brain, she might not be much better than ordinary people.

Charlotte snatched the stack of documents from the stunned Sakurai engineer and sent him and the drilling crew away. Then, she skipped and ran towards the Red Well, carrying her handbag.

Nono and Melyuzina landed there.

"Are you Charlotte?" Nono crossed her arms, gazing at the young Western beauty. It was strange. Could Emiya like such a young girl? Could he possibly like a young girl? That was unlikely!

But when Nono thought about the fact that Melyuchina had the same figure, his heart skipped a beat, and it seemed that this might not be the case.

"Who are you?" Charlotte looked at Melyusina warily... That's right, an extremely powerful Servant.

"Just call me Nono. Do you know Emiya's whereabouts?"

"Didn't you say you were going home... Could it be that Emiya is missing?"

After exchanging a few words, Charlotte got a definitive answer from Nuonuo. She was immediately incredulous. Wasn't that guy supposed to be invincible? How could he have fallen to the enemy camp one day?

Could it be that he was trapped by a beauty trap?

"Since I can't contact you, I have no idea where he is! But it doesn't matter. We can still find him even if he's missing!"

Charlotte opened the suitcase, and a stream of mercury was released, which flew past her and flowed into the red well.

"You must be someone who knows about the Holy Grail War, right? I've almost figured out the location of the ley lines. Look at this red well—"

Nono was surprised. "There's a leyline down there? But what does that have to do with finding Emiya?"

"No! Go down 300 meters below the Red Well, where the underground water flows is the real earth vein!"

Charlotte explained that her mercury was not released simply to explore the earth's veins.

As a pseudo-servant, she also possesses the skill of "position construction".

In other words, while Charlotte was exploring the earth veins, she wanted to use them for her own benefit, as her own magician's position, to more efficiently and diversely utilize them.

"And when I can access this true leyline, I'll be able to follow its flow and have a clear view of everything in Tokyo."

Charlotte spoke with a proud and high-spirited tone. Actually, that was a bit of an exaggeration. No matter how much information she had, it was still limited by the processing power of the main body. Her Mercury AI's calculations were excellent, but not powerful enough to survey all of Tokyo.

But there's no problem finding Emiya.

Charlotte and Emiya have been in contact for quite some time. Mercury AI, as an alchemical supercomputer, has already collected information about Emiya. The more information it collects, the more confident Charlotte will be that sooner or later she will surpass Emiya in some way!

"Let me see, Emiya's last location was in... Shinjuku district... and now there's a woman there... Huh?"

Charlotte's fingertips detached from the surface of the mercury, and she was surprised to see that her perception was cut off the moment she peeped.

"who is it?"

Facing Nuonuo's anxious question, Charlotte solemnly tapped some mercury, which immediately changed its appearance, revealing the image of a fairy-like, sacred, and beautiful fox-eared woman.

——Obviously, “Amaterasu”.

When Nuonuo saw the otherworldly appearance of a female deity, she almost gasped for breath, her eyes widened, and her fists clenched.

Is it her imagination?

Does Emiya have a disease where the number of women he encounters continues to increase?

----

Ever since she resumed her battle with Emiya, Amaterasu unknowingly found herself feeling a little tired.

The human on the opposite side did not seem to be an ordinary person. He had a considerable magic recovery speed, so that the battle that he thought would end soon was actually repeated over and over again in the barrier world.

This process belike:

The two sides released various long-range tricks to each other to show their friendship, mainly between Ugly Gozen and Amaterasu.

Then, after maintaining equal output and neither of them could do anything to the other, they would start using their ultimate moves to further show their friendship. At this point, the main battle would be between Emiya and Amaterasu.

Then, Miss Fox-ear began to hear Emiya across from him, chanting over and over again with the calm demeanor of an old monk chanting sutras: "I am the bone of my sword (I am the bone of my sword) 体は剣で出ている (This body is made of the sword)..."

Once this time comes, Miss Amaterasu starts to listen to the 3D surround magic sound filling her ears, and she has to cover her four-channel ears and wear a mask of pain on her head. Master, please stop reciting, she is so tired of hearing it that she wants to memorize it!

After Emiya finished reciting a long string, a hazy space of infinite sword shadows began to confront Miss Amaterasu's "Eternal World Cracking Great Killing Realm".

Every time it was performed, the scene of "Infinite Sword System" seemed to become more solid.

Amaterasu looked at this scene that repeated itself time and time again. Even though she could guess that the other party was using her to gain experience, she couldn't help but sigh and say:

"Fighting you is like being in jail."

Chapter 237 Raise the Sword of Rebellion Against God! (8k!)

Ignoring Amaterasu's feelings, Emiya focused his gaze on the mirror-like world. As the magic energy within continued to vibrate, ripples appeared on the dome of the barrier.

He watched the sword shadow slowly fade away as it grew on the mirror. Strange lines streaked across the smooth surface reflecting the image. Some resembled neatly drawn patterns, while others resembled children's scribbled lines, appearing briefly and then vanishing just as quickly.

Along with this, a pulsing flame enveloped his vision. Emiya's flames seemed to be burning the hammer itself, and through repeated chanting of incantations and exploration of concepts, he perfected the entire space of Infinite Blade Works.

My thoughts were racing, my head was practically boiling.

Emiya felt the circuits in his body begin to swell and heat up due to the frequent extraction of magic power. This burning sensation was climbing up his spine and spreading throughout his body, as if lava was slowly flowing in his blood vessels.

Although the amount of magic power generated has increased significantly since being baptized by dragon blood, every activation of the Infinite Sword System consumes at least a large magic level.

...Even in this "Water, Sky, Sunlight, Tensho, Eight Horizons, Stone-Suppressing Field" barrier, the correction power of the inherent barrier is not as strong as in reality.

Ugly Gozen pursed her lips and glanced at Emiya worriedly. She didn't get much explanation from the Master, but since Emiya insisted on doing so, he must have thought that this opportunity was too rare and important to be seized.

"Master, it's my turn."

Ugly Gozen suddenly called out, then walked past Emiya and once again faced Amaterasu in his place.

Although she didn't know much, she chose to believe in the Master.

"……Thanks."

If it were under normal circumstances, Emiya would probably realize again when expressing his gratitude that Uzumaki Gozen's consideration for him seemed too humane and inconsistent with his character.

But right now, Emiya is focusing most of his energy on perfecting the Infinite Sword System.
