Chapter Seventy-Six: Negotiation, Alliance
Two hours after Xunxin and the others eliminated the Sea Demons, next to the abandoned factory on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, Emiya Kiritsugu and Kuyu Maiya were armed with submachine guns and pointed their guns at Kenneth and Solawei as hostages, respectively. Worried about the safety of the lord's fiancée, Solawi, even the lancer, who can surpass the speed of sound in speed, does not dare to easily attack Emiya Kiritsugu, who has an inherent time control. And the magic circuit in the body was completely destroyed by the origin bullet, and Kenneth, who relied on the large benefits given by the family to get the treatment of the puppeteer Aozaki Orange and restore the mobility of his hands, of course, did not have a solution to the current predicament. If the magic circuit is intact, it may be possible to use the Moon Spirit Liquid to infiltrate Soravey's side from the ground to protect her, and then let Lancer kill the Emiya Kiritsugu in front of her, but without the magic circuit, all of Kenneth's methods are basically abolished, and the magic dress that does not need to be driven by the magic circuit is destroyed in the explosion at the Hyatt Grand Hotel. Now Kenneth could only look at the two self-imposed articles sent by Emiya Kiritsugu that the demon threw in front of him.
Oath: For the fifth-generation heir of the Emiya family, the son of Kiriken, Kiritsui, with Kenes. Elumeroy. Aqipolud and Sora. Nazelle. Sophia and Lily are the targets of the intent and act of killing and injuring forever.
Conditions: Kenays. Elumeroy. Aqipolud and Sora. Nazelle. Sophia and the two are required to act under the instructions of Emiya Kiritsugu until the end of the Holy Grail War, and must not act in disobedience.
Self-imposed testimony is one of the most selfless contract spells used in a society of intriguing magicians to make a promise that must never be violated. A forced curse imposed on oneself using one's own magic marking machine. In principle, it has an effect that cannot be eliminated by any means. Even if the user loses his life, the magic mark will bind the soul of the deceased and will not be passed on from generation to generation, making it a very dangerous magic trick. For the magician, the negotiation of the submission of this certificate actually means the maximum concession.
The other card had a different condition than the first, which was that Kenneth immediately renounced the Holy Grail War and broke his contract with the lancer.
Enslaved alliances or voluntary withdrawals, these are the conditions put forward by Emiya Kiritsugu. If he agrees to the first article, I'm afraid, no, it should be said that Kenneth's servent Dilumudo will be used as cannon fodder, and although Emiya Kiritsugu will not kill himself in the article, but if Emiya Kiritsugu makes himself a bait in the name of instructions, then death is certain, and the same is true for Sorawei, who has a curse. As for the other one, although under Kenneth's secret technique, the provider of magic is Solavi, but the contract of Dilumudo's existence is connected to Kenneth, that is, Solavi is equivalent to an external source of mana, and Kenneth is the subject of this contract. As long as Kenneth breaks his contract with the Lancer, the Lancer who has lost his Master will soon return to Valhalla. However, without the Holy Grail, Kenneth's injuries cannot be recovered, and although there are methods in the Magic Association that can repair magic circuits, they are all evil spells that cost a lot and damage the vitality at the same time, and have a great impact on the user's spirit. Just as Kenneth hesitated, the roar of the engine was heard at the factory gate, and the Knight King and Ellie Sophiel rushed to the factory and saw the scene of the confrontation between Emiya Kiritsugu and Kenneth.
"Master, you ......" The Knight King looked at his master, his eyes full of anger and puzzlement. However, there is an enemy next to him, and he can't show an expression that may cause adverse effects, so he can only walk behind Emiya Kiritsugu and do his duty as a servant.
"Kiritsugu, why, it's clear that Saber has an amazingly powerful Noble Phantasm that is enough to lay down the victory, why do you still ...... in such a way" Ellie Sophie saw Emiya Kiritsugu's combat methods for the first time, and her slender white hands covered her lips and looked at Emiya Kiritsugu and Sorawei, who had obviously been tortured a lot and was already dizzy.
"No, Ellie. The strength of the rider side has exceeded my expectations, and before by the river, the rider had cast a great magic of the level of the inherent enchantment. The other Saber is not bad, and the master of the Saber can be regarded as a servent, or the highest level of servent. Based on the information I've gathered recently, it seems that Berserker has also joined the Rider side, so if you face three servants at the same time, even if one of the Berserker or Saber pesters the Knight King, then the other servants can easily kill us. If he can get the help of Lancer and delay the three servents, then Saber will have a chance to use the Noble Phantasm to destroy the other party. Even though it was in front of Kenneth, Emiya Kiritsugu still said his thoughts unabashedly. Not only to the people on his own side, but also to Kenneth, who is not far from him. We still have a chance to win if you join, and the three servants on the Rider's side alone will be enough to destroy you, and maybe we'll kick you Kenneth and Lancer out of the game now. Kenneth struggled in his wheelchair with a look of hesitation on his face. The lancer on the side is vigilant and does not leave a chance for Emiya Kiritsugu to sneak attack.
"I'm ......" Kenneth finally made up his mind after a long time, but just as Kenneth was about to say his words, the thunder in the night sky caused both sides to panic, and the wheels of Kamui cut through the silence of the night and landed in the abandoned factory.
"Yo, the Knight King and Dilumudo, it's a good night tonight." The King of Conquest naturally greeted the two servants as if they were acquaintances, but the Knight King and Dilumudo didn't think so, and together they aimed their weapons at the Heart-Seekers on Kamui's wheels.
"Rider, do you want to take advantage of this night to wipe out me and Lancer?"
"King of Conquest, I, Dilumudo, will defend my lord with my life, even if you don't want to hurt my lord." Dilumudo stepped forward and shielded Kenneth with his body, staring at the men on both Saber and Seeker. Now the Lancer group belongs to the weakest force, and Di Lumudo can't help but be careless.
"Hey, hey, don't be so nervous, my allies and I are talking to you about something this time, don't put on such a puzzled posture." Every time someone else made a defensive gesture, the King of Conquest sighed helplessly. But it can't be helped, every time you play, someone else is in an emergency, and it's always accompanied by thunder and lightning, so it's no wonder that the other servants don't guard against you. ╮( ̄▽ ̄")╭
"Forget it, I'll negotiate this time...... Uh, what's the matter, I'm a master. As soon as Heartseeker jumped out of the chariot and was about to step forward, Saber and Lancer's weapons were pointed at Heartseeker, and the holy sword that shone with golden light and the magic spear wrapped in ominous red light were aimed at the heart of Heartseeker's vital point at the same time.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Amada, your threat is too great, I can't let you get close to my lord."
"By the same token, you could hurt my master, and I'm going to avoid that." Well, Seeking Heart was also forced back by the actions of the two servents, in the battle to destroy the Sea Devils, Seeking Hearts was considered to be in the limelight, and the power output as a human was even better than the sum of the other servents combined, although Seeking Heart had limited its own strength, and did not use the power of space to destroy the Sea Devils with an ultimate spark, nor did they use the power of space to throw the Sea Devils back into another dimension, but the ability shown by Seeking Hearts had already shocked the other servants and masters. A magician who has never heard of it can achieve a firepower output comparable to that of a magician and a twenty-seven ancestors, the Tosaka family, Emiya Kiritsugu mobilized available resources to investigate Xunxin after he officially joined the war. It's a pity that Seeking the Heart is not a person from this world in the first place, (in other words, the Eye of Death, which has an absolute killing effect on everything outside the root of this world, cannot kill the Seeking Heart, because the Seeking Heart does not belong to this world.) If they want to find the information of the heart, they can only do it if they can break through the limitations of the world and find the infinite heart in the infinite dimensional space.
"Okay, okay, don't be impulsive. At least two of you should hear why we're here. ”
Before the two servants could answer, Emiya Kiritsugu looked at Xunxin and said, "Yes, Master of Red Saber." So why are you here when I signed the pact with the master of the lancer? ”
"Yes, of course...... To ally yourself and the Lancer's Master. As soon as the words of the heart were spoken, both Emiya Kiritsugu and Kenneth were stunned.
"Why are you allied with me and lancer at the same time, don't you have three servents united?" The Knight King frowned and questioned the Heart.
"Please, Knight King. Naturally, the alliance is due to the fact that there are strong opponents, so it has to be an alliance to deal with it. "The King of Conquest stood on the wheel of Kamui and shook his bearded face, and answered the question of the Knight King with a tone of whether I look up to you.
"A strong opponent? …… You mean archer? The Knight King quickly understood who it was that Xun Xin and the others thought were the most difficult targets.
"Well, Archer's true identity is the oldest king of mankind, the king of Uruk, the city-state of the Sumerian dynasty in ancient Mesopotamia, with two-thirds of the gods, one-third of the high divinity of man, and the owner of the original text of human wisdom, Gilgamesh. According to my estimation, even me, Berserker, Rider, and my servent have no chance of winning. Hearing the words of the heart, both Lancer and Saber fell silent. It's no wonder that even if it is a Hero King, it should be difficult to face four opponents with top-level Heroic Spirit level strength at the same time, but what Xun Xin said is that it is almost impossible to win.
"What you said is too hard to believe, but if you can exclude Tosaka Shichen and Yan Feng Qili first, I have no objection." Emiya Kiritsugu agreed to form an alliance with Xunxin and the others, but Kenneth, who was protected by the lancer, saw that the Saber group had also joined Xunxin and the others, so he could only agree to form an alliance. As for the reason why Emiya Kiritsugu agreed to seek the heart to form an alliance, it is clear that Yanfeng Qili is a great threat to Emiya Kiritsugu, not only in terms of strength, but also in predicting the way Emiya Kiritsugu will act. If the Magician Hunter's way of acting is figured out, it will be very difficult for Emiya Kiritsugu to win over Yan Feng Qili. As a magician who just uses magic as a good technique, Emiya Kiritsugu is also very aware of the strength of the church's agents, that group of religious maniacs, who used the church's secret techniques to polish and exercise harshly** with the church's special vestments and black keys have killed countless magicians, Feng Qili is one of the leaders, with six black keys can block the bullets of the submachine gun, a blow of Bajiquan can knock down the big tree that two people hug, a mental state that is completely unaffected by the outside world, unpredictable thoughts, From the beginning of the Holy Grail War, Emiya Kiritsugu has designated Yanfeng Qili as a tricky guy. Even in the Holy Grail War, the power of Heart-Seeking is far beyond imagination, but since this power is beyond the scope of his own confrontation, Emiya Kiritsugu has already set the opponent of Heart-Seeking as his servent, and Mine Kiri is the master that Emiya Kiritsugu wants to eliminate with his own hands......
"Since we have agreed to an alliance, then I will provide you with some information as our sincerity. The Flying Noble Phantasm used by Gilgamesh is called Vimana, and in Indian mythology, it is made of gold and emerald gemstones, and the mercury-fueled solar crystal produces the solar energy that can be used to fly at high speeds in defiance of the laws of physics. Moreover, the most powerful weapon on Vimona is the six missiles loaded with ancient nuclear warheads in the six launchports in front, it is estimated that a single shot in power should not be comparable to the Sword of Victory of the Knight King, but a salvo is estimated to be hated by most of the Heroic Spirits present. After the tripartite alliance was formed, Xunxin and the others came to the Amada Tofu Workshop to discuss the next strategy. Solawi was taken away by Yaoyue for treatment, and her severed right hand was also retaken under the healing technique of Seeking the Heart. At present, the Rider group, the Saber group, the Lancer group, the Berserker group, and the Heart-Seeking party are gathered around the round table used to open the king's banquet, and just hearing Vimana's information, Emiya Kiritsugu and Kenneth in wheelchairs have a look of fear on their faces. Kenneth is afraid of Vimona's power, while Emiya Kiritsugu is afraid of the tracking capabilities of missiles equipped with ancient nuclear warheads and the radioactivity from explosions. Magicians who don't understand modern technology are really pitiful.
"I think you all know what it does, and the treasures stored in it are shot at supersonic speeds, which have great destructive power. Moreover, the consumption of this treasure is very low, and it can be seen from Gilgamesh's previous performance that the magic consumed by using the King's Treasure is not even as fast as the Holy Grail is replenished through Tosaka Tokitoki. But no one can guarantee that Gilgamesh will be able to attack with a variety of treasures, for example, he takes out Ganganir and stands at the highest point of Fuyuki City, with archer's eyesight bonus, he can easily see people walking, as long as he finds the target and throws it, he is unguarded and is hit by a treasure that has a sure hit effect or is at least A+ against the city, and it is basically the end of death. Now Gilgamesh does not regard the other Heroic Spirits in the Holy Grail War as a threat, with the King's Treasure transformed by the original text of human wisdom, theoretically Gilgamesh has a restrained way against any of the previous Heroic Spirits, even if it is at the same time with the plural of Heroic Spirits, the bombardment of the Noble Shower and the effects of the various Noble Phantasms used are enough to make Gilgamesh easily win. In addition, Gilgamesh's melee ability is quite powerful according to the legend, even if it is enough to become a saber, Gilgamesh can end this Holy Grail War overnight if he doesn't have the problem of slowness...... "Listening to the analysis of Gilgamesh's treasures and materials by Seeking Heart, every servent and master seems to have a cold sweat on their heads, according to Seeking Heart, if Gilgamesh is really serious, Even if the Heroic Spirits join forces, the chance of winning is only about 50%. Of course, if you don't unite, the chances of winning against Gilgamesh are basically zero.
"Then before defeating Gilgamesh, all the servants will take a temporary truce, and after defeating Gilgamesh, continue to divide the winners, no opinion." At the end of the conversation, Xunxin looked at everyone and asked.
"No objections." *4 (Actually, I won't say it here if I disagree.) *2)
