"What the hell did you do?"
On the way back, Enosaka looked at me suspiciously and asked.
"Caster is no longer an enemy anyway."
I chuckled in a relaxed manner. A traitorous wife … er, cough cough, I meant that the witch of betrayal Midea and the iron man Karagi Muneichiro were a pair that I had always looked favorably upon. It would be nice if I could help them get together.
Enaka blinked. Then, he focused his gaze on someone behind us. "Just like this guy?"
Sasaki, who was holding the bamboo pole on his shoulder and holding a toothpick in his mouth, immediately protested, "What do you mean by 'this guy'? Little girl, show some respect to the elder. "
"Hey, Grandpa Sasaki, you are as lucky as the East Sea."
"Bang!" The veins on Sasaki's forehead were visible to the naked eye.
Unlucky child, you might as well fight Vega and die a quick death instead of arguing with the little demon Ling.
But speaking of fighting Vega, I suddenly thought it was a good idea. Of course, I didn't want to see Sasaki's depressed look — although that was one of the reasons — I was really interested in how big the gap between the complete body of the Valiant Spirit and the Shiring Apostles was.
The Valiant Spirits who responded to the summons to participate in the Holy Grail War were not the original body, but the avatars. Due to a series of conditions such as the correction of the world, the master's strength, the limitation of the class and other conditions, the power they could exert was less than one-third of the original body in the Valiant Spirit Palace. Even for the unlucky Valiant Spirits, the proportion would be even lower. But after being incarnated as the Valiant Spirit under the name of Avalon, the limitation could be lifted.
If I let the complete body of Sasaki and Vega fight, I don't know if it would be more interesting. Of course, the final result may still be one-sided by Vega. But I think, at least Sasaki would not be as miserable as last time, right?
After all, according to the standard data analysis made by Bubble, the combat power of a complete body of the Valiant Spirit was comparable to that of a hero of Azeroth, which was equivalent to the strength of a low-level Shiring Apostles. In the vassal army system of the Empire, such a force could be called an elite army. Even if they could not compare to the same number of the regular army of the Empire, they could still be a powerful support force. More importantly, the Valiant Spirits would not really disappear when they died in battle. As long as Jingle's World Tree and the Avalon Mother's Nest were still there, these undead warriors could be reborn indefinitely. Therefore, although the number of Valiant Spirits was far less than that of the heroes of other worlds, their significance to us was no less than the latter.
"I always feel confused," Wei Gong blinked his eyes. Seeing that Sasaki, who was an enemy just a moment ago, was now busy bickering with Enaka, a sense of unreality arose in his heart. "Although it's good that we don't need to fight and shake hands, it feels completely incomprehensible."
"I'm more curious about why he called you boss," Saber looked at me curiously, the ahoge on her head trembling unconsciously. "Even Rider. Do Valiant Spirits also work?"
"Anyway, big brother is very powerful!" Ilya wasn't confused at all, or perhaps she didn't have the intention to use her brain in this direction at all. The silver-haired loli swung her arms and strode in front of Little Bubble to clear the way. She chuckled and said, "Berserker thinks that Big Brother is very powerful!"
How did you get a message like "Big Brother is awesome" from the mouth of this blockhead who only knows how to hide from Pandora?
"What about now? Are we going to confront the fake priest?" Enaka looked up at the bright moon in the sky. Compared to the Crimson Moon in the Inner World, this moon was much more pleasing to the eye. "I didn't expect that Senior Brother of mine would be hiding such a secret. If that's the case, could he be the one behind the Jiantong family's Valiant Spirit Army?"
"This … Aren't you being too sensitive?" Wei Gong twitched the corner of his mouth and scratched his cheek. His tone was filled with doubt. "Since he is your Senior Brother, and he has been taking care of you for so many years, he should at least have a corresponding understanding of you. Don't you know what Yanfeng Qili looks like behind the scenes?"
"I've never been able to see through him." Yuan Ban shook his head, looking disinterested. "Many people wear masks in their lives, but we can still see their true appearance through the mask. As for the fake priest … In my impression, he doesn't wear a mask, but only a mask. There's no such thing as his true appearance. After so many years, I don't know anything about the guardian in name. This is also the reason why I suspect that he has something to do with the Jian Tong family's violation of the rules. If there's really a conspiracy, as the supervisor of this Holy Grail War, he's the most likely culprit."
We could only remain silent to Enaka's words. On this issue, no one had the right to speak except for Enaka. As for the plot that I knew of, it had already disappeared after the appearance of the Valiant Spirit Army and the Inner World. Hence, even if the fake priest, Yanfeng Qili, rode his sword to perform the Ninth Heaven Mystic Lightning Technique tomorrow, I could only accept it.
Even though I might really be killed by the Ninth Heaven Mystic Lightning at that moment.
"Sir, there is an imbalance in the surrounding space!"
Vega's sudden report interrupted everyone's thoughts. I suddenly woke up from the ridiculous illusion of Spiritual Master Yanfeng flying on his sword. Immediately, I felt the abnormality in the surrounding space.
Less than ten meters in front of us, two street lights flickered, but the ground below them maintained a very stable light spot. There was a thin mist floating in the air, and we could vaguely see that the mist formed a clear layer of vacuum about a meter above the ground. This phenomenon, which was similar to a 'cross-section', was very common when the space was unstable.
There was a weak energy floating around, very obscure. It was obviously the aftermath of some kind of spatial distortion. If it wasn't for the high sensitivity of Vega's radar system, which was used to being on high alert in any situation, we wouldn't have noticed it.
The source of the abnormal fluctuation was from the direction of the Enaka family.
After hearing the news, Miss Enaka's expression immediately changed. She sped up and ran forward. Sandora and I looked at each other and followed closely behind her.
Thus, on the empty street of Fuyuki City, there were more than a dozen Midnight Stampeders. Looking from afar, they were tall and short, fat and thin, men and women. It was a spectacular scene!
In less than a few minutes, the Enaka family's mansion appeared in our sight. From here, everything looked normal, but with my enhanced eyes, I could faintly see that the outer wall of the Enaka family's mansion seemed to be covered with vines.
"Ah! What's going on!? "
When we came closer and saw the situation of the house, Enaka couldn't help but exclaim. I finally saw what the so-called vines were. They were actually countless pitch-black cracks!
The crack was as wide as a palm, starting from the base of the outer wall and disappearing all the way to the roof. The entire mansion was shrouded in darkness, and even the few rooms we had left on before we left were shrouded in darkness. The surroundings were as quiet as a dead zone, and we could even hear Motosa's heavy breathing.
While everyone was in a daze, the moonlight gradually rose from behind the Enaka family's mansion.
Red moonlight!
An ominous light gradually spread from behind the lifeless mansion, slowly plating the entire building with a bright red edge. It was as if a bloody dawn had arrived. The red light shone through the wide cracks on the outer wall, instantly covering the Enaka family's mansion in a huge red net. Then, the red moon gradually appeared from behind the black silhouette of the building. It gradually left the horizon, and the crimson color spread all over the land. The cracks on the surface of the tall building in front of us began to spread, expand, and connect in front of us.
In the end, the cracks near the central axis of the entire building gathered together, forming a huge cut that split the entire Enaka family's mansion in half. It was as if a not-so-sharp saw had crudely sawed the entire house in half. Silently, the Enaka family's mansion fell apart. There wasn't even a single tremor or sound. Under the red moon's background, the black silhouette of the mansion slowly shattered into pieces and scattered in all directions. It was like a soundless scene in an abstract paper-cut animation. Enaka's mouth was wide open as he watched this strange scene. After a long time, he finally let out a deep breath, his hands unconsciously grabbing onto my sleeves tightly.
"Sandora, did you receive the news?"
I turned to ask. She was already floating in the air, her hair reflecting a golden light. She looked around at the buildings that were following in the Enaka family's footsteps and nodded.
Just now, we received a message from Avalon. The Fate world had experienced an unprecedented distortion. The entire Fuyuki City, with the Enaka family as the origin, was completely sucked into the Inner World. The powerful energy that the red moon radiated at that moment was almost more powerful than the "Zero" series of planet battleships that we had built in the Kepru Star Zone.
The only fortunate thing was that the Garden of Death had been activated in time. Before the city was destroyed by the Crimson Moon world, it had quickly changed the coordinates of Fuyuki City and temporarily moved it to a static space. What we saw now was just a false silhouette produced by the world that couldn't react to such abnormal changes in time.
"Don't worry, these are just illusions caused by the impact of the precepts." I comforted Enaka and patted her hair. "Fuyuki City is now in a safe place."
Although she couldn't understand what was happening in front of her, she instinctively believed in the omniscient "Uncle Alien." She nodded gently and calmed down again.
The buildings in our sight were still collapsing one by one. Soon, they became ruins all over the ground, and then they turned into sand that was blown away by the wind. In just a few minutes, everything in front of us had changed from a modern city to a desolate, scorched land. Hurried footsteps came from the side. Midea and Ge Mu, who had just said goodbye not long ago, appeared in front of us.
This was really awkward. We had promised to go home and sleep, but before we could even reach the door, we were sucked back in by the world's mutation.
"Hey, you guys haven't slept yet?"
Midea almost fell to the ground when I greeted her. Even the cold and distant Witch of Betrayal couldn't help but hold her head. "Boss! Is this the time to talk about this? "
As her voice trailed off, the low sound of war drums gradually came from the horizon.
Black spears and silent phalanxes appeared in the distant sky and approached us at an abnormal speed.
When he saw the enemies that appeared out of thin air, even the indifferent Sasaki opened his mouth wide. The broken toothpick slipped to the ground.
"Oh my God …"
I didn't expect Sasaki to have such a catchphrase.
"Heroic army." The energy in Sandora's body surged. She looked sharply at the dark army in the distance. "We guessed wrong from the beginning. Five thousand heroic spirits … That's not the upper limit at all. It only takes five thousand heroic spirits to destroy Behren. The number of enemies is far more than that!"
"Hey, hey, hey, boss, you aren't going to pat me on the shoulder and say that you have given me the responsibility of saving the world, are you?"
The corner of Sasaki's eyes twitched. He didn't fully understand his backer, and now he was really disheartened. Are you kidding me? A dozen people fighting against an army of more than ten thousand heroic spirits?
Even if they were born to be bathed in chicken blood, they wouldn't be able to have such combat power!
Wei Miya and Enban swallowed hard at the same time. The latter subconsciously took out a few gems that contained powerful magic power, but after clenching them a few times, he put down his hands dejectedly. Wei Miya couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and then instinctively stood in front of Sakura.
That's the only thing that makes this silly boy look good in my eyes.
"Hmph, it seems that we are going to die on the battlefield today," Red A, who always started from reality, said without beating around the bush. "I don't believe in miracles, but if we die to protect … this time, it doesn't seem that bad."
Ilya hugged my arm tightly and buried her little head in my chest. She even ignored the death stare from Pandora, Visca, and Little Bubble. The silver-haired loli's body was trembling, but she still stood firm and didn't say a word. As a qualified lolicon, Berserker also knew that the glorious moment to protect his loli had arrived. Driven by his instinct, he stood in front of everyone, raised the stone axe in his hand, and roared at the sky.
In the next second, Pandora grabbed his ankle and threw him more than twenty rounds in the air before throwing him into the sand …
It was only when Berserker accidentally revealed his height and was thrown out by Pandora that the crowd recovered from the shock of the ten thousand heroic spirits. Then, they realized that a certain group of aliens who claimed to be photography enthusiasts from the Centaurus Constellation all had calm expressions on their faces. They were so relaxed that they almost laughed out loud.
The attentive Yuan Ban also realized that his sister actually had a smile on her face. She looked like a happy child who found an opportunity to show off her skills. Even the servant beside her, the heroic spirit named Medusa, had a relaxed expression. She even had the time to tease the little brat named Little Bubble.
Could it be that they still don't know what is going on?
Yuan Ban couldn't help but think.
But why did Rider look so carefree and unfeeling …?
"Boss, can you remove my restriction?"
After tickling Bubbles and making her giggle, Rider slightly raised her head to look at me and asked.
"There's no need for that." I quietly looked at the frightening heroic spirit phalanx that was gradually approaching their attack range. "This phalanx … Is it the Roman Legion?"
The enemies that appeared in the distance were the infantry spirits that I met in the Guardian Palace. Of course, this time, their numbers were even more astonishing. They formed a strict phalanx as though they were in ancient wars. With my pitiful knowledge of world history, it was a miracle that I was able to link them to the Roman Legion.
They came prepared. Their target from the start was Yuanban's residence. Just like the strategy that destroyed Einz Belem, they gathered an absolute advantage in military strength to instantly destroy the enemy's headquarters. It was a classic old man's strategy: stable, safe, and one-hit kill.
"I see." Sandora looked coldly at the approaching heroic spirit phalanx. "The Garden of the Departed World analyzed the nature of this army. The appearance of a large number of heroic spirits will distort the world. Their gathering together will cause a riot in the Inner World."
At this moment, I finally understood why the outside world didn't notice anything when Ilya's residence in the forest was attacked. In other words, they were all sucked into the Inner World?
And now, it seemed that in order to summon more heroic spirits, they needed to drag a larger area of space into the Inner World. The two hundred heroic spirits that attacked the Guardian Palace only caused the construction workers to faint, while the five hundred heroic spirits that attacked Ilya caused the entire forest to be swapped with the Inner World. The five thousand heroic spirits that attacked the Einz Belem Castle caused the entire Fuyuki City to evaporate. And now, the entire Fuyuki City had to be buried together with the ten thousand heroic spirits. Such a price was truly astonishing.
But in order to drag the entire Fuyuki City into the deadly Crimson Moon, the Kantō Family, you really went too far this time!
Do you fucking know how much I wasted on electricity just to protect Fuyuki City!?
Using such a large army just to deal with a small group of people — more than double the number of people that destroyed Einz Belem — seemed truly wasteful. It seemed that Shinji Kantō's idiotic and rash actions had caused the two hundred heroic spirits to be completely annihilated. This caused the Kantō Family's head to be extremely wary of us. And Shinji Kantō, who witnessed the Crystal Goddess's attack, probably exaggerated the situation countless times to reduce his own punishment. The Kantō Family's head had truly gone all out in order to eliminate us, strange and powerful enemies that suddenly appeared.
The low sound of war drums came from the horizon. As the gigantic phalanx continued to approach, Saber gripped her holy sword tightly. Perhaps the scene before her reminded her of the last battle she had experienced.
She was heavily surrounded and had to fight alone.
And this time, it was even worse. She no longer had her own knight squadron by her side. Instead, she had to face an even larger heroic spirit army.
