Chapter 310 Burning Polluted City Tokyo
“—Odin!!”

The golden pupils in Chu Zihang's eyes shone brightly, and he looked extremely jealous in front of his enemy.

Because he knew that the person imprisoned in the deep interrogation room was supposed to be Pompeii, but now it was Odin who rushed out. Needless to say, Emiya's information was 100% correct. The other party was the culprit behind the YAMAL incident, which led to the death of his father Chu Tianjiao!

The blade was unsheathed, emitting a bright flame.

The flowing flames instantly shot into the air, sweeping up a rolling heat wave!

However, Odin didn't even look at him, and let the heat flow carrying the flames come.

Even if the blazing flames frantically licked his makeshift armor, it was of no use. The next second, the horse beneath him snorted and released lightning. The invisible "king's domain" unique to the first generation was stimulated from Odin's body, and with the thunder and lightning, it repelled the rolling waves of fire.

In contrast, what Odin always kept a close eye on was the divine aura that quietly emerged from Emiya.

hum-

There is no need for exaggerated and gorgeous lights and colors, no need for the pomp of boiling hot air waves, just a simple and silent unfolding of the power of the divine nature, and the invisible pressure will quietly cover down from the sky.

A golden light, brighter and more brilliant than Chu Zihang's, pierced through everything, instantly dimming the spacious corridors of Chaldea. Finally, the golden light slowly condensed into the divine sword "Ame no Murakumo" in Emiya's hand.

At this point, Emiya no longer needs to use the "Susanoo" Daigokujo as a medium to transform into a giant in order to launch a divine attack when using divine power.

By solving the problem of output control, Emiya can limit the output power of his own power and achieve more precise miniaturization, just like the scene before him——

Emiya held the golden holy sword and swung it casually like a newbie in kendo!

——No, how could someone like Emiya, whose swordsmanship had reached the pinnacle, make the same mistakes as an amateur? He did this simply because he could still exert absolute dominance by discarding those unnecessary and cumbersome techniques.

This means that when the sword is drawn, one force can defeat ten skills!

"Do not……!"

The moment Odin raised his spear to resist, he found that he and his surroundings were like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun!
From the moment the spear and sword touched, the divine spirit wrapped around the elements and roared to kill the enemy. The overwhelming force caused everything to topple and twist. The sturdy spear and armor began to collapse completely, torn and shattered under the unreasonable edge of the divine sword. Then the fresh flesh and bones that had just been reborn followed suit, continuously melting and dissipating.

The weapons were destroyed in an instant, followed by the torso, legs, and horse... In such a short moment, no one was spared.

boom!
Chu Zihang watched everything with his eyes wide open. He didn't even see what Shirou was doing before he saw the divine sword that suddenly appeared in his hand was retracted.

He was clearly in the casual and unfocused posture of a novice in the previous moment, but in the next moment he was skillfully performing a high-speed sword-drawing and slashing move like a rare swordsman. The audience could only observe Emiya's relaxed and agile "blood vibration" and sword-sheathing movements after he finished everything.

As the opponent - no, it was not an opponent at all, it could be said that it was the one that was completely crushed. Odin was like weeds crushed by the roadside, with a light blow destroying his weapons, armor, lower body and even his warhorse.

The changes in this scene were so sudden and rapid that Chu Zihang had the illusion that half of Odin's body melted away in the blink of an eye.

"Huh..."

His body thudded to the ground, and at the same time, the severe injuries and the intense pain made Odin almost faint. His blood flowed madly, and his strength vanished with it. He wanted to turn back time, just like when Xia Mi had severely injured him before...

However, the aftermath of the god's destructive attack invaded the wound, preventing the body from healing and recovering, causing Odin's mind to become somewhat distracted and unable to concentrate.

After repeated attempts and failures, Odin finally realized that after using "Time Reversal" under Xia Mi's coercion, the trauma caused by Emiya had exceeded the limits of his alchemy! Temporarily unusable!
Damn Jörmungandr! He lost the chance to fake his death and escape!
Emiya didn't care what Odin was thinking in that short time. He then stretched out his hand and made the elements gather into light. A thick gauntlet made of the power of the god "Susanoo" formed in mid-air.

The huge "hand of the gods" easily grabbed the remaining half of Odin's body, as if it was grabbing a poultry or livestock to be slaughtered.

"Listen carefully, Odin, I don't want to play any more games of wits with you!" Emiya picked up the guy with an expressionless face.

The latter's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he struggled with his arms to grab at the air. It was obviously impossible for an ordinary person to lose his lower body and still be alive and kicking, but the Dragon King could.

"You must have used some tricks to escape the interrogation room without any reason. If you still have some tricks left, you'd better use them now! Otherwise..."

“@#¥%…” Odin was speechless.

Damn it, you're holding me so tightly, let alone making small movements, I can't even utter a word now!

Emiya slowly raised the sharp edge of the sword in his other hand and glanced at Odin. What are you mumbling about here? Go talk to my Murakumo sword!
Chu Zihang hesitated on the side, wondering whether he should persuade the opponent not to get angry and chop him first, at least let the opponent spit out the information about Chu Tianjiao and Chaldeas first.

[Run…Run quickly, run to where the fire hasn’t reached yet…It’s all burning…]

"Ok?"

Wei Gong and Chu Zihang paused at the same time, they heard a strange tiny sound.

Chu Zihang reacted immediately, "It's the voice from Chaldeas!"

Emiya even remembered Fingel's information, "It's a distress signal from humans on the celestial globe!"

This sudden little change made him hesitate. According to Finkel, the time period when Chaldeas leaked biological signals was uncertain. Each time was very short, and once missed, it would be difficult to capture it again.

But the Odin in my hand...

hum!hum!hum!
Soon, Emiya and the others didn't have to worry about this matter anymore, because a slightly dull rumbling sound suddenly came from the other side of the wall, coming from the direction of the control room. It was the sound of the accelerator used for spirit particle transfer being pre-activated!

And it seemed to be started at high power, making the sound like thunder, abnormally loud!
"Is anyone in the control room?"

Wei Gong looked at Chu Zihang. He remembered that Chu Zihang had come from the direction of the control room before.

"Yes, Abbas from Group A!"

"I'll go and take a look! Chu Zihang, you must issue an emergency notice in my name immediately! Let them be on alert and don't go near the control room!" From Chu Zihang's reaction, Emiya knew that the appearance of this biological signal seemed to be getting more frequent, and he subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

After hearing Emiya's order, Chu Zihang hesitated for a moment. Chaldeas was related to his father's whereabouts, and if he left now, he would miss it.

However, the last time he heard Chaldeas' voice, Chu Zihang had also investigated. Since he didn't know much about the celestial sphere device, he couldn't do anything on his own. Perhaps Master Emiya was more capable and could handle it better and obtain more useful information... In the overall situation, acting separately was undoubtedly a better choice.

"it is good."

Chu Zihang responded neatly and passed by Emiya in the opposite direction.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

Mash Kyrielight had just escaped from Da Vinci's workshop a few minutes ago.

"Little Mashu, you really don't have the time to come over and help me out as a workshop assistant? You just need to come over to look after the shop during your off-duty hours. As an assistant to the head of the technical development department, you'll receive generous compensation and extra medical benefits~"

"Thank you, Da Vinci, for your hospitality."

Mashu looked troubled. "But taking private jobs isn't a good idea, is it?"

"Hey, how can this be considered private work? I'm also the head of the technical development department for Captain Emiya's important projects, but Emiya hasn't assigned many people to me. Now, there are only a few people in such a large department. The manpower shortage is a serious problem!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Da Vinci. I'll tell you about it next time I see Mr. Emiya... Besides, I'm a bit busy right now. Mr. Abbas sent a message saying that they urgently need to purchase some parts to repair the celestial sphere device. I'm just stopping by to help run errands. I have to go to the control room now. Mr. Abbas might be waiting impatiently..."

As she spoke, she had already trotted off towards the corridor. There was no other way. Based on her experience of dealing with this great inventor of the Renaissance, if she didn't leave early, Leonardo da Vinci would definitely offer her various temptations continuously. Although simple but occasionally sharp, little Mashu would never be fooled!

"Alright, alright, welcome back next time, Mashu~! I'm really short-staffed here! -- Assistant Orluen, let's begin the 755th Imaginary Domain Deep Dive Test!" "Okay~" A weak reply came from the depths of the workshop.

Mashu sighed inwardly, and with a hint of pity for Miss Orluen, she ran towards the control room at a faster pace.

He almost bumped into Emiya who was coming around the corner!
"Mr. Emiya! I'm sorry, uh…"

"Matthew?"

Emiya saw Mashu's astonished look and immediately understood the other party's reaction. The large divine light arm armor and gauntlet transformed from one of his hands was tightly grasping Odin. Although most of the body was covered by the armor, Mashu could still recognize that this was a man wearing an iron mask who was almost dead!
"This is...an enemy. Don't worry about it. I've already asked Chu Zihang to sound the alarm... But Mashu, why are you here?"

"Oh! Mr. Abbas said he wanted to inspect the celestial sphere device and asked me to bring it over..."

The two of them rushed to the control room. Emiya was puzzled. "Maintenance? Does maintenance need to be so noisy? Is this sound the accelerator in the wall? What does it have to do with the celestial sphere device?"

Mashu, who was holding a box of spare parts, was also stunned for a moment. She adjusted her glasses and said, "Maybe it's only needed for some exceptional maintenance?"

Because Abbas had a good image, Mash didn't immediately suspect him. Instead, she speculated, "I don't often come into contact with the Spirit Transfer Team. Perhaps Mr. Abbas is very familiar with them and knows that some inspections require testing the accelerator..."

Emiya pursed his lips slightly, not believing it easily. As far as he knew, accelerators consumed a lot of energy and were generally not used. The only time they were absolutely necessary was for spirit particle transfer. As for other situations where accelerators were used...

He planned to ask Finkel or Charlotte later if this was true. He also planned to investigate Abbas, a man whom Emiya had previously neglected to notice, a man of unknown identity brought to Chaldea by Pompey.

The two arrived at the door of the control room, and after opening the sliding door, they saw Abbas lying in a pool of blood!

"Mr. Abbas!"

Mashu's expression changed drastically. At first glance, she could roughly judge that Abbas's injuries were very serious. Although the physical fitness of mixed-bloods is beyond ordinary people, it is best to send him to the hospital for treatment in time.

"Don't rush over there."

Emiya quickly pulled Mashu behind him, then slowly walked into the control room, "Calm down, there are enemies."

"Eh?"

Mashu, who was pulled behind, glanced sideways and finally understood why Emiya's tone suddenly became serious.

In the corner of the control room, a huge monster appeared!

The monster was a deep red all over, with many pairs of crimson spherical eyes like chess pieces on a chessboard. The eyes were clearly granular and arranged vertically in rows on the towering columnar monster. It was simply the embodiment of nightmares.

"Demon Pillar!"

Mashu heard Emiya immediately call out the name of that thing.

A demon pillar? Not just any monster, but a pillar-shaped demon?
The shrill alarm echoed throughout the Chaldea Building.

Emiya knew that Chu Zihang had already informed everyone in his name, so he and Mashu approached carefully. Mashu went to the side to check Abbas's injuries, while Emiya raised the sword and pointed it at the Demon Pillar.

"Godslayer... Chaldea... the enemy that stands in the way of our destiny and our new greatness!"

Unexpectedly, the demon pillar on the opposite side spoke first. No, the other party did not have a "mouth". The voice came from inside its thick and huge body, and it was quite loud, as if some muffled thunder exploded inside.

"You are not only obstacles, but also powerful enemies that oppose our path. Unfortunately, you are too late. I have already hacked into and activated the system, confirming the special abnormal time and space point."

"From this, I will travel to that origin, analyze and destroy the treasure you rely on to save the world - Chaldeas!"

"I won't let you succeed..." Emiya stopped talking midway.

Ok?
Is there such a good thing? The Demon Pillar took the initiative to help interrupt the incubation of the alien god. This is wrong. Why would I have such a dream?

[…System·Spirit particle transfer, entering the final stage.]

[Coordinates: 2004 AD, Japan, Tokyo]

The mechanical tone of the broadcast voice echoed in the control room.

[Anti-summoning system has been set up. Master, please make final adjustments.]

"What happened...?" Mashu raised her head. She tried to move the unconscious Abbas, but Mashu, who had not awakened the power of a servant, was a little weak and had no idea how to deal with such a heavyweight man.

"The Demon Pillar has analyzed the transfer of spirit particles. It wants to escape—"

Emiya was too busy to take care of Abbas, so he immediately swung the sword, and the dazzling golden light radiated with brilliant power!

The densely packed giant eyes of the Demon Pillar flashed red light, but were torn apart by the brilliant sword light, and the body of the Demon Pillar disintegrated like fragile cheese.

"Superficial! Superficial! The essence of your soul particle transfer is a sorcery of exchanging resources. It is the culprit that subverts this planet!"

Emiya's strike was successful, but the opponent's residual sound still echoed, and then the remaining shapeless column continued to wriggle, gradually disappearing like a phantom. ——What remained was an illusion, the real body escaped!
"These evil ways should be kept by our king, creating a more solid foundation for our grand blueprint...!"

The Demon Pillar's reaction completely disappeared.

"It ran away?"

"No, it moved away."

Emiya frowned, and his mind quickly recalled all the details of what had just happened.

Firstly, they couldn't allow the Demon Pillar to destroy Chaldeas. Otherwise, according to FGO's setting, the real planet would likely be destroyed. Even if the current reality was different, Emiya didn't dare to gamble on this possibility.

Secondly, no one knows how this Demon Pillar has been lurking in Chaldea for so long, but it seems to know about singularities - that is, abnormal locations in time and space, which contain some secrets.

It's very likely related to Chaldeas, who intends to go to the singularity to steal hidden objects and return them to Goetia. This will undoubtedly lead to the further strengthening of the Humanity Burning faction...

This situation cannot be allowed to happen!
[Anti-summoning system, activated. Beginning spirit particle conversion.]

"Mashu! Take Abbas away, I will go to the singularity alone to investigate and stop that guy's actions!" Emiya knew that the spirit particle transfer was starting, and it was just the right time for him to take advantage of this Demon Pillar.

"But--"

Emiya turned around and realized Mashu's dilemma. He reluctantly helped to carefully lift up Abbas, the seriously injured patient.

Mashu had just quickly completed a simple hemostatic bandage, and at least Abbas stopped bleeding. However, if she had moved a little too hard, the wound would have been severely torn.

【All projects completed, spirit particle transfer begins.】

At this time, he raised his head again and saw Chaldeas, which was black and red. The soul transfer had entered the final stage. No, it was too late.

The light instantly enveloped the entire control room.

The world changed, and a burning city appeared before our eyes.
