— The experiment in the Body Chamber.
In fact, as long as someone saw the facility and device in front of them, they could more or less notice that something was wrong, because the purpose of the experiment itself was very obvious.
A total of 128 baskets were evenly distributed on the surrounding walls. Each of the baskets was as tall as a person, and they were silver-white in color. Each of them was connected to a central furnace-like device by cables.
The style of the baskets was somewhat similar to the baskets used by Chaldea during Rayshift. Its scientific name was "shielding container". It could cut off the karma and fate of the people inside from the outside world. In a short time, it could reach the point of isolating the inside from the outside world, forming a domain that was not governed by the laws of the outside world.
The people inside had already fallen into a state where they were neither alive nor dead. Although they were alive, they were also considered to be dead in disguise. Even if they were dead, they could still be regarded as alive.
At this moment, in each of the 128 baskets, there was a child who was at most ten years old.
There were boys and girls, but without exception, all of them fell into a coma. They didn't even breathe, and their chests didn't work. It was as if they were dead.
"Human battery, this is their function."
Wei Gong looked at the 128 baskets hanging on the wall in front of him, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face. "Don't you think it's strange? Why can SE.RA.PH summon so many servants without a master? Where did the magic come from, and who signed the contract with the servants? "
"…"
"—!"
Including Tachika Fujimaru and the servants, all of them fell into shock or stunned silence.
In fact, they also thought about the problem of the master.
No matter which Holy Grail War it was, all of them required a master and a servant to form a combination. The master summoned the servant, signed a contract with the servant, and paid the servant's magic power to move and fight. This was the normal combination of the Holy Grail War.
But in this SE.RA.PH, there were only 128 servants in the big melee, and not a single master could be seen.
The only master was Tachika Fujimaru, who was tricked by BB from Chaldea.
Whether it was Trystan or Suzaku Gozen, they were summoned from SE.RA.PH, but they didn't have their own masters. They had no choice but to accept BB's rules and fight each other to the death.
"Although I've already guessed it, could it be …"
Trystan's expression rapidly turned unsightly. He looked at the 128 crates hanging on the walls and revealed an expression of disbelief.
"That's right, they are your masters."
Wei Gong said with a mocking smile, "And it's not just you guys. Even in the last Holy Grail War, and the one before that, they also played the role of master."
"What do you mean?"
Trystan frowned and asked Wei Gong with a sharp gaze.
"My meaning is very simple."
Wei Gong sneered, then said with an indifferent expression, "The function of this capsule is to allow those who enter it to enter a state of 'neither life nor death'. Even if the master seems to be exhausted and dead, because of this state, he will still retain the last of his life force, and then continue to be squeezed out of his value."
In other words, they won't die no matter how they die.
"After all, they are masters. Each of them has an extraordinary magic circuit. As long as they are locked in the capsule, they will lose their consciousness, and their magic circuit will be manipulated to squeeze their life force into magic power. With the help of this state of 'neither life nor death', they will be able to squeeze out an endless stream of magic power."
Magic power was, in essence, a supernatural energy obtained through the conversion of life force through magic circuits.
In essence, due to the limited life force of the human body, it is impossible for humans to continuously produce magic power from their body. Once they overdo it, it will cause their life force to decline, their magic circuit will be damaged, their life system will be in disorder, and all kinds of problems will occur. What's more, if they don't hesitate to squeeze out magic power, it may even lead to the exhaustion of the magician's life force.
But the magician in the capsule can't die even if he wants to.
In other words, even if the magic circuit of these masters is continuously squeezed and their life is threatened, but because they can't die, their life force will not really end. They are still alive in essence. Then, they can continue to be squeezed and finally form an endless stream of magic power.
In other words, the essence of this capsule is — a permanent human battery.
Just listening to it was enough to make one's hair stand on end.
"The door of the Natural Body Room must not be opened. The forbidden experiment will be restarted, and this computer space will be completely turned into hell."
The information obtained from the recording device inexplicably appeared in the minds of several people at this moment, making them completely silent.
Is this the truth of the Natural Body Room?
So this was what the so-called "hell" referred to?
"This experiment has been frozen and has been sealed here as the highest level of confidentiality. However, after SE.RA.PH was sealed and fell into a frenzy, someone was completely desperate about the current situation. Under extreme madness, he opened the door of the Natural Body Room at all costs and restarted this forbidden experiment."
Wei Gong continued coldly: "As a result, SE.RA.PH's computerization has an endless stream of energy. It is not impossible to summon servants to carry out the Holy Grail War. After that, these children became inexhaustible batteries, summoning servants again and again, carrying out countless Holy Grail Wars."
"Wait, what's going on here?"
Ling Lu Gozen abruptly interrupted his narration. "Just now, what do you mean by countless Holy Grail Wars? Isn't this the only Holy Grail War? "
"Of course not."
Wei Gong looked at her as if she was an idiot. "Don't forget, the flow of time here is 100 times faster than the outside world. It has been more than four months since the incident. At least dozens of large-scale Holy Grail Wars have been carried out here. Nearly 10,000 servants have fought here."
Those children have been continuously squeezed in the capsule for decades, and the Holy Grail War naturally lasted for decades.
For decades, no matter how difficult and anxious the Holy Grail War was, it was enough for dozens of Holy Grail Wars to be carried out hundreds of times.
All in all, there were at least ten thousand servants who had fought in this place.
There were nearly ten thousand followers.
Just hearing this number was enough to suffocate people.
Such a terrible force, if put in the outside world, it was enough to change the whole world. But trapped in SE.RA.PH, they had to carry out meaningless battles again and again.
"There is no doubt that this is an absolute technology that symbolizes evil."
A mocking smile appeared on Wei Gong's face. Not only was he mocking SE.RA.PH, but he also seemed to be mocking himself. "That's why I cut off the power supply to these casings and devices before you arrived. This way, the batteries that we don't know if they're still alive are finally dead."
"By the way, Chaldea also used the same technology as here."
Then, from his mouth, Tachika Fujimaru couldn't believe it.
