Chapter 104 Concept Replacement
"Merlin? You're finally back!"
When Ello saw this familiar figure who deserves a beating, he also showed a smile on his face.
Since he is back, it means that all the plans he has prepared can now begin, including summoning heroes in advance.
"Ah, although I came back early, there are some bad news here that needs to be shared with you."
Merlin sighed, and the smile that had been on her face dissipated at this moment, and was replaced by extremely solemnity.
During this period when he disappeared, he returned to Avalon with the return of magic power to analyze the evil of this world and the new Holy Grail form.
Even with his strength, this process took a long time to complete. Similarly... he also learned a very bad news.
"It seems that things are a bit serious if you can say such words!" Ailo's good mood had just recovered and calmed down again.
Take out your cell phone from your pocket and call Emiya Kiritsugu and Tosaka Toshimoto. It would be better for everyone to listen to this "not good" news together.
Soon, Tosaka Toshiko was the first to arrive at Ello's home.
Tosaka Rin and Sakura went to Tosaka's house first. When they saw Tosaka Tosaka appear here, they already knew that they were not suitable to stay here.
About half an hour later, the dusty Kiritsugu entered the house in the heavy snow.
Now several people, including Gilgamesh, are waiting for Merlin to express his discovery and speculation.
"After analyzing the new form of the Holy Grail, I found that the structural pattern of this Holy Grail war will be very different in the past because it is too big!"
"That's right, the previous Holy Grail Wars were based on the soul capacity of the seven heroes, but this time it doubled!"
Meilin took a sip of steaming tea and spoke out the news with a serious expression.
"You mean, the New Holy Grail is made based on the soul capacity of the fourteen heroes?" Kiritsugu Emiya snuffed out the smoke between his fingers and frowned tightly.
If this is true, then the problem will be big.
"So, there have been rumors about the Fifth Holy Grail War in the Clock Tower recently, and some people have noticed it."
Toshiko Toshiko took off his black-framed glasses. As the manager of Toshiki City, he had the closest connection with the Clock Tower Square.
It is said that this time the Clock Tower will send people to participate in the Holy Grail War as an alien magician.
"Merlin, it will not waste its power to do such useless things. Have you ever thought... will this Holy Grail War evolve into a melee between the two sides of the 14-knight heroic spirit?"
Ello tapped the table with his fingers, recalling a subspecies Holy Grail War in his mind, which was a feast where 14 heroic spirits fought each other.
The heroic spirit, Karna, whom he chose, also participated in the Holy Grail War, and the final result was defeat.
"The most reasonable explanation now is that it attempts to recreate one contestant, as the Black side, to fight against us, while as the Red side, we want to destroy the Holy Grail."
Merlin nodded and said his guess.
To drive the wolf and swallow the tiger, use the other party's contestants to fight against themselves. In order to ensure victory, it is likely to open some backdoors for the Black side.
"Since that's the case, our heroic spirit choice ideas need to be changed. We can no longer focus on functionality, but on combat effectiveness!"
Toshiko Tosaka was secretly happy, fortunately he chose Enqidu, who was as famous as the hero king, so he didn't have to worry about combat power.
As for Kiritsugu Emiya, it was a terrible thing. The heroic spirit this guy liked was actually mainly functional, and he was at a disadvantage in this war.
His eyes glanced at Kiritsugu Emiya beside him, but Tosaka Toshiko was surprised to find that there was no change in his expression on his face.
"Hmph, I want to see me behave like a fool... Sorry, I never like to leave only one way for myself when doing things."
Emiya Kiritsugu smiled contemptuously. Since the first plan failed, he still had a second plan.
The heroes summoned by this holy relic can definitely be ranked first in terms of strength. If you have better luck, you may be as strong as Artoria!
"Then we should find the remaining imperial lord of the Hong side, so let's leave this to Yanfeng Kirei."
After thinking for a while, Ello said, it is most appropriate to leave this to the people in the church.
"Then let's decide like this, I'll go back and notify Kirei."
Toshiko Toshino nodded and wrote down this in his heart.
...
Soon, after the talks were finished, the guards Miya Kiritsugu and Tosaka Toshiko left here.
"Okay, it's time for our magic to come on."
After the matter was arranged, Ello began to take the last step.
That is the absolute battlefield prepared for Karna, turning the concepts of day and night around, so that even at night, you can gain the protection of the sun.
"I really don't know how you came up with this method. Using illusion to deceive the world is really bold!"
Merlin had no choice but to touch her forehead. This was suddenly proposed by Elor three years ago. Maybe he had already locked in the heroic spirit of Karna at that time.
The fundamental principle is to rely on illusions to block and turn, so no one except Merlin can perform this magic.
This is why Ailor waited until Merlin came back before he started to act. It was still difficult to do this with his half-baked illusion.
"Let's start here. After I finish it, I'll go and study how to bring the title of ruling."
Merlin waved his hand and said, "As a fun person, how could he let go of this postpartum Holy Grail War?"
As long as you give yourself the title of ruling, you can appear in this cup battle openly, and no one has the reason to let yourself leave.
"Okay, this is the holy crystal stone obtained from the family treasure house, and the gem solution used to portray art."
Ailo immediately took out the items that had been prepared for a long time, among which the shiny holy crystal stone was the most eye-catching.
The magic circuit quickly started to carve magic tricks on the ground.
Gilgamesh took a deep breath and his face became serious.
If the key candidate for this magic is Merlin, then the dominant person is him, or the legendary treasure in his hands that can change the secrets of heaven.
"The cloak with an absolute concealment concept is said to be covered by it, no matter what, it cannot be found out."
The treasure house light gate opened, Gilgamesh took out a painted black external cloak and threw it into the magic array that Elo had just portrayed.
Meilin stood in the center of the magic circle, summoned the staff and held it in his hand, and the magic power on his body continued to surge out.
His lips rose lightly and he recited an unknown mantra.
