Lost Narrative Poetry

Although there was a slight accident, which seemed to make it impossible to implement the original plan, and even lost a lot of kill rewards, but strictly speaking, Xia Ran still controlled the overall situation of the Holy Grail War——

It can be said that he had already won the night he acquired Saber. The reason why he did not immediately checkmate the opponent was because he took the overall situation into consideration.

To put it bluntly, I hope to make as many proper preparations as possible when I am sure that I will win. After all, he may come back in the future, and in his mind, Fuyuki City is already his territory, and of course he must carefully maintain and operate it properly.

Now is no exception. His previous idea was to eliminate the enemies one by one without making too much noise, and at the same time, he could get equipment, skills, points and other crystallizations.

But now, since Gilgamesh seemed to be prepared and raved about ending the farce of the Holy Grail War tonight, Xia Ran also graciously agreed to this matter.

——Isn’t it just to give Gilgamesh death? What's the problem? Since that guy wants to die tonight, Xia Ran won't stop him. He is often very generous in this regard.

Anyway, after Rider is eliminated, there are only two enemies left that he needs to deal with, or simply say, there is only one left, and that is Gilgamesh. As long as he kills that guy, the Holy Grail War will be over. .

"The bridge was not destroyed. Judging from the traces of the fight at the scene, it should have been left by the bombing of the guy's Noble Phantasm group... But such an attack will not be able to kill Rider in a short time."

On the Fuyuki Bridge, Xia Ran quickly checked the scene and confirmed that a brief battle had indeed occurred here, but there were only traces of damage left...

Some people may believe that it was terrorists fighting here, but it is hard to believe that there were heroic spirits fighting a desperate battle here and using EX-level super-standard Noble Phantasms.

However, Xia Ran knew what the nature of the Conquering King's Noble Phantasm was, so he determined that it was indeed the "King's Army" that had developed its own barrier, and then the World Egg formed by the mindscape was broken from the inside by the Deviation Sword——

Precisely because the entire battle took place within the inherent barrier formed by the Conqueror's Noble Phantasm, the corresponding environment in the real world was not severely damaged.

"Lancer's aura is going that way, and he seems to be carrying someone with him. From the traces along the way, it can be judged that he is a little embarrassed... and the Bastard King's aura is leaving from this side."

After taking a look at the snowflakes that had not become bigger or decreased in any way, Xia Ran turned around and looked at the worried knight girl next to her, gave her own opinion, and then asked the other party's opinion:

"What do you think we should do now? Should we find Lancer first to get information, or should we track down the Bastard King... In fact, the spell Caster left on Irisviel includes a part about positioning and tracking, but we can only find it when we go back. She was able to locate it, because it was not a magic trick by me, and I had no way to track it directly."

"Let's find Archer first!"

On this choice, Saber did not hesitate for a second, she said decisively, and made a decision quickly and decisively.

Although according to the traces and clues obtained by Xia Ran's inspection, as well as the conclusions she also agreed with, Lancer was able to escape from the battle at the critical moment, and seemed to have escorted someone with him to retreat.

But the problem is that the King of Conqueror has always had Waver with him, and if Irisviel is included, they are just two ordinary people - although they are both magicians, they are not as terrifying as the new Master in front of her.

That is, to the point where you can wrestle with a Servant and beat him to death.

In this case, then the two people are naturally regarded as ordinary people in front of the Servant. Lancer may be able to protect one person from leaving with the help of the Conqueror King, but it is absolutely impossible to escort two people away at the same time, so there must be one person who cannot leave. of.

So Saber still considers the worst case scenario. If Irisviel does not fall into the hands of Gilgamesh, then naturally it is the best result, but if it is indeed Gilgamesh who captures Irisviel If so, she absolutely cannot hesitate at this time.

Of course, this is actually not the worst result. The worst result is that Irisviel may have...

However, Saber refused to think about this possibility. She glanced subconsciously and saw the dark water under the bridge, as if it were a bottomless abyss. She had no idea what kind of terrifying and helpless things lurked below. The unspeakable horror of the unknown.

Although this is a battlefield and nothing else can be found around it, if the body fell into the cold sea water under the bridge...

Arturia's heart clenched at the thought of this possibility.

"Stop thinking nonsense, Irisviel is definitely fine now..." Xia Ran seemed to see what she was thinking, and once again scanned the entire Fuyuki City through the spiritual whisper, confirmed Gilgamesh's current location, and then Just said this to Saber.

"Really?" As if grasping a life-saving straw, Artoria's eyes suddenly lit up.

"real."

"Wait, how did you confirm it?" Saber's thinking is very quick, and she is not the kind of person who can be coaxed by others with a few words of comfort, so she decisively pursues further questions.

She didn't want any ambiguity or uncertainty about this matter.

"This..." Xia Ran was a little confused.

"Is it because of the secret of Irisviel's body again?" Saber was immediately angry and anxious. She thought of this matter immediately, "Master, I don't understand what kind of secret it is. Is it so important? To what extent? Do you need to keep it secret at this time?"

"We have already reached this point, and there is no need to keep it secret..." Xia Ran shook his head and spread his hands directly, "It's just that I have just determined the position of the Bastard King. Are you sure you want to listen to me slowly explain it at this time?" Can you explain this?"

Saber was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that she had lost some sense of control. As soon as she gritted her teeth, she immediately made a decision: "Hurry over first, and we'll talk about it on the way."

"Then come up..." Xia Ran calmly stretched out his hands, as if preparing to catch something.

Seeing his actions, Saber gritted her teeth again, her face turned slightly red but she didn't say anything. Now, of course, the principle of speed comes first. Who told her that she couldn't transform into a spirit body, and she couldn't endure that car at this time? The speed is up.

Although it had been strengthened by various magics, the car's kinetic energy was very surging and its speed was very wild. She had been very satisfied with it as a means of transportation before, but at this critical moment she was not satisfied with it.

No matter how you strengthen magic, there is a limit, and it cannot reach the level of a Noble Phantasm, whether it is basic performance or special effects.

Don't say anything else, that car can't fly at all. It still has to move along the road, but it can't fly over the city and take the shortest straight line distance between two points... At this time, Al was naturally Tolia gave up decisively.

There's nothing to worry about. Didn't you just come here at the fastest speed like this? It's a pity that this time I appeared in the world as a Saber class instead of a Rider class...

The knight girl warned herself as she walked over quickly, forcing herself to be calm.

…

…

At this time, Emiya Kiritsugu had arrived near the Fuyuki Civic Hall.

Tonight's plan completely failed. Lancer only brought back the unconscious Waver, but not Irisviel. Moreover, even Rider was under the golden shooter's trump card and left the game directly.

Although the characteristic of Archer's class is that the Noble Phantasm is powerful, but it is so powerful that it really makes people wonder if there is something wrong with this world. There are endless Noble Phantasms, and the inherent barrier is cut open. The "sword"... The cheating is so outrageous that it really makes people wonder if that guy is the illegitimate son of the Creator.

Emiya Kiritsugu was naturally very disappointed when he heard the news, but he was also very calm. He probably had expected it, right?

Because even on the night before, he decisively chose to attack Kenneth and succeeded, allowing him to regain the qualification to continue participating in the Holy Grail War, so that he would not be eliminated on the spot... but it was only a qualification.

Probably from the state of confirming that the elimination has failed, we have gained the possibility that if we are lucky, there is still a 1% chance of turning defeat into victory... Well, a conservative estimate should be 1%, after all, no one knows what will happen. How to fight against the hell camp of Liudong Temple.

Even if the remaining three Servants join forces, they have no chance of winning, let alone Gilgamesh.

So even though Emiya Kiritsugu was still unwilling to give up, he already knew it. He just didn't want to admit it, like a drowning man clinging to the last straw.

However, the last straw can only break the camel's back, but it cannot save the drowning person.

During this period of time, Emiya Kiritsugu was actually mentally prepared to lose everything, so he was able to accept it calmly. Looking back, he once lived a life that had no chance of being lonely. It was also a life that was more cruel than loneliness. There was always someone by Kiritsugu's side.

The cause of this "someone" being killed, or rather died, was none other than Emiya Kiritsugu himself - he killed those people with his own hands, or he knew that those people would be sacrificed, but for Realize your ideals, or decide to push them to destruction.

The same goes for Irisviel. He was destined to be separated from the day they met. This must be his destiny...

The man coldly stopped on the snow-covered street, looked at the huge building in front of him, and then looked at the position next to him: "The next step is left to you."

In the empty air, Lancer's figure suddenly appeared. His face was ugly, so gloomy that it seemed like it could drip water:

"I will try my best to hold Archer back, and I hope you can keep your promise."

"Of course I will keep my promise. As long as you try your best, no matter what the result is, I will let Kenneth and the others go..." Emiya Kiritsugu said expressionlessly, "But if you play any tricks, Maiya will be the first to do it. Shoot those two men and beat them to pieces."
