They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 347 Yang Liti Sit with Super Yong

Let's go back to the time when the train crew went to the Dream Shop.

In a dilapidated room on the second floor of the waiting hall at Liumengjiao Station.

This should have been the VIP waiting room of this station, but it is now completely abandoned.

Furniture made of memory will slowly disintegrate depending on its sturdiness if left unattended.

Now, all that's left in this room are a few worn-out tables and chairs.

At this moment, Sand Gold was sketching and writing on a piece of paper, depicting a diagram of the relationships involved in this Holy Grail War.
The gold dust is clearly used to estimate how credible the claim about fireworks is.

Archer, watching his Master's futile efforts, was speechless, but his mischievous urge to tease acquaintances kicked in, so he remained silent.

Until, Sand Gold asked Archer very seriously
"Archer, as the guardian of the Counterforce, what do you think of Danlei? What do you think of this Holy Grail War?"

Archer, suppressing a laugh, said...

"Dan Lei? A strong person with certain principles."

However, his principles depend on his goals, and I have a feeling that he has a cold-bloodedness deep down that he can't see on the surface.

If he deems something more important than the intelligent life on a planet, he will not hesitate to destroy that planet.

Although he seems to respect life, that is, provided it doesn't conflict with his goals.

This can be seen from the Avengers incident.

He didn't care how many innocent lives Dr. Chadwick's revenge would affect; he only intervened because it would disrupt Pinocchio's Holy Grail War.

As for this flawed Holy Grail War, it's too chaotic to analyze.

Upon hearing this, Sand Gold instantly grasped the key point in Archer's words and looked up, asking in confusion.
"A wrong Holy Grail War? You mean there's a right Holy Grail War? You've experienced other Holy Grail Wars before?"

Archer, seeing that his Master had finally grasped the key point, laughed directly.
“Master, you don’t know? I remember telling you that I know Lancer.”

By this time, Sand Gold was certain that his Heroic Spirit knew some secrets of the Holy Grail War, and then deliberately watched him waste time doing useless work on the tattered paper in front of him.

However, Sand Gold didn't angrily yell at his heroic spirit. Instead, he helplessly threw down his pen, plopped down on a stool, and said...
“Alright, it seems you have a lot to explain to me. First, tell me in detail what you know about the Holy Grail. Also, why didn’t you mention it when I raised my doubts about the Holy Grail with Black Swan?”

Seeing that Sand Gold wasn't asking him in a commanding tone but rather a consultative one, Archer naturally wouldn't hold back and spoke the truth.
"First of all, I don't think the person who remembers is credible."

Secondly, I'm not sure yet if the Holy Grail here is the same Holy Grail I know, and not some other cup with a similar function but the same name.

When you returned to reality to escape your pursuers, I looked it up online. With your explanation, I found that the state of the Memory Reaper is actually quite similar to that of a Heroic Spirit.

My current state is even closer to that of a Memory Being than to a Heroic Spirit as I understand it.

In short, in my original world, the Holy Grail was merely a magical artifact created by human magicians to explore the origins of existence. It does indeed have the power to grant wishes, but it certainly has nothing to do with you, the long-fallen star gods.

Archer's words made Sand Gold frown. He pondered for a moment before slowly asking...

"You mean the Holy Grail War is common where you are?"

Archer shook his head in denial.

"Of course, it's not common. The one I remember participating in was the Fifth Holy Grail War. The five Holy Grail Wars were separated by sixty years, seventy years, sixty-four years, and ten years respectively."

The reason the Fifth Holy Grail War was prepared so quickly is that the Holy Grail was destroyed during the Fourth Holy Grail War, interrupting the Grail Descent ritual. As a result, the magical energy within was not depleted too much, allowing the war to resume in just ten years.

However, the Holy Grail is not a toy, especially not a toy that magic laymen like the Pinocchio family should dabble in.

Dan Lei didn't seem to care. He seemed to have a special method to convert the surrounding destiny energy into extremely pure divine magic; he wasn't an amateur.

Sand Gold finally understood at this point and summarized directly:

"So, you mean that Hanabi is fooling me, that the Holy Grail ritual has nothing to do with immortality? Then why is Danlei so determined to complete the Holy Grail ritual?"

The question about placer gold is beyond my scope, Archer simply shrugged and said helplessly.

"How would I know? I can only confirm that our Holy Grail has nothing to do with your Immortal Star God."

I have no idea what Danlei is thinking.

Also, as I mentioned earlier, there's a possibility of duplicate names for the Holy Grail. After all, besides the Holy Grail from the Holy Grail War, I have another Holy Grail that's more famous and widely known.

Sand Gold remained silent for a few minutes, then stood up and said...

“Let’s go to Pinocchio’s 12 o’clock and find that Lancer you know, let’s hear what he has to say.”

Archer had no objection to Sand Gold's decision to go to Lancer, but still offered a reminder.
“My dear Master, you seem to have forgotten that you are still wanted by Pinocchio. If you cross the border of the Dream now, you will definitely be caught.”

In response to this question, Sandkin simply picked up the phone in his hand, and the person he was dialing was named Veritaslatio.

Then Sand Gold said to Archer
"When you encounter problems while out and about, you have to rely on your friends."

This is when we should call on the all-knowing Professor Ladio. He's been at the Pinocchio 12 o'clock for so long, he must have learned something.

"Perfect, let's go ask him what he found out."

……

Archer's extensive knowledge of the Holy Grail War was something Hanabi hadn't anticipated, as Kurumi knew absolutely nothing about the Holy Grail.

All she knew was that a voice in the darkness told her she could participate in the Holy Grail War and obtain the omnipotent wish-granting machine.

In order to wish to return to where it all began, Kurumi chose to answer the summons without hesitation, even though she had to kill the Primal Spirit with her own hands.

Of course, after arriving in this world and having greatly broadened her horizons, Kurumi's wish has become to wish upon the Holy Grail to directly specify a time to erase the Origin Spirits of all timelines in her world.

Even Dan Lei would probably break out in a cold sweat if he heard this wish, doubting whether the Holy Grail could possibly grant it.

For this kind of thing, the professional is the Star Hunter. As long as the Primal Spirit is not a Star God-level being, he can truly transcend time and wipe out all Primal Spirits in all timelines with a single arrow.

As for the investigation following Hanabi's death, 2.5 of the war heroes knew the truth about the Holy Grail.

However, Lancer attacks Kurumi whenever he sees her, and his senses are extremely sharp, making him very difficult to detect.

Archer is a man of few words; given the tense situation and the lack of inquiries from Sand Gold, he would never bring up his knowledge of the Holy Grail.

The remaining half is Metatron, who knows the true nature of the Holy Grail.

Moreover, given the power the Holy Grail has demonstrated, whether it is an immortal creation or not no longer affects Sunday and Gopher's decision to proceed according to the plan given by Dan Lei.

However, Hanabi couldn't monitor her.

Therefore, Hanabi had no way of knowing the true nature of the Holy Grail; her words had inherent flaws.

Of course, this was intentional on Danlei's part. After discovering his two old friends, Archer and Lancer, Danlei didn't take the opportunity to warn Hanabi. He wanted Hanabi to portray him as the mastermind behind everything, so he definitely had to sabotage her.

Because Hanabi will definitely try to transform Danlei from a behind-the-scenes boss into the real behind-the-scenes boss.

Moreover, she will definitely try to get others to skip Sunday and come directly to Danlei, the mastermind, because that would be the most fun.

Then, after the train crew meets up with Potio, Hanabi's lie will be exposed if she's not caught. If she isn't exposed, Danlei will also remind her when he's being attacked.

At that point, everything she said will be considered a lie, and the Starry Sky Train crew might even feel guilty towards Dan Lei.

However, the seeds of doubt in the goldfields have completely failed to germinate, but those in other places have already been fertilized.

The fertilizer used this time is called Walter "Danger".

Time returns to the time when the train crew went to the Dream Shop.

By this time, Walter, along with Sunday and her siblings, had already returned to the Morning Dew Mansion once and sent someone to formally contact Gopher.

However, Sunday and Gopher must consider that their inquiry had not escaped the notice of Robin and Walter.

Therefore, the place where the news was heard could not be the Chaolu Mansion, the management center of Pinocchio.

Because it's really inconvenient to shield the surrounding staff from this location.

Moreover, with so many powerful forces watching the Morning Dew Mansion, there will definitely be others who know that Robin and Walter have entered.

If the two don't show up then, Pinocchio will have no way of explaining it.

After all, the robin could be explained as rehearsing for the Harmonious Music Festival, but Walter didn't have such a good reason.

So, just like in the game, the three of them, along with the two Heroic Spirits, arrived at the platform in front of the Golden Moment Dream Daydream Hotel to meet Gopher Wood.

Of course, while waiting, Sunday and the robin, just like in the game, chatted with the passing travelers.

Among them were drunkards who sold all their belongings and came to Pinocchio with all their heart, simply because their hometown was too hard and they wanted to experience a life of dreams without hardship, without worrying about tomorrow, and doing whatever they wanted.

There is a young girl who hates loneliness, can't stand a boring life, and only wants to party day and night. So she immerses herself in dreams for a long time, feeling that only here can she be her own master and truly control her own life.

There are veterans who have come down from the battlefield, their bodies broken and battered, and can only spend the rest of their lives in good health in their dreams.

In short, tourists who come to Pinocchio, especially ordinary tourists with limited funds, are seeking refuge in a dream world to escape the hardships of reality.

Of the three, only the veteran's action was a completely reasonable act of desperation.

But if a person can't survive in reality, how long can they survive in a dream?

In short, all three of them are tragedies that are plain to see.

However, Sunday believed that Pinocchio should be a dream for those who are disappointed in reality, providing them with an umbrella to shield them from their troubles.

The robin believes that no matter how wonderful a dream is, it is not real; only by living in reality can people truly gain something and make progress.

In fact, neither of these two theories is right or wrong.

There's a saying that goes, "Don't advise others to be kind if you haven't experienced their suffering," and the same applies to Pinocchio.

Those who are immersed in their dreams, it's all their personal choice.

What's wrong with people voluntarily staying in a cage where they won't get hurt?

Of course, there's nothing wrong with the saying, "Look forward to the future and don't let fleeting dreams take over your life."

The two also discussed whether pioneering endeavors were the privilege of heroes.

Is it true that only those with a certain level of strength can embark on new ventures?

In short, Walter, Asna, and Metatron were unable to interrupt the conversation between the siblings. Each of them had their own thoughts, but they all remained silent.

However, Sunday and the Robin siblings didn't have time to discuss the topic in depth. With the cry of a raven, the dreamer, Gopher, arrived.

The dreamer appeared in the form of a raven this time, but none of the three people present were too surprised.

This is Pinocchio. Theoretically, human consciousness can be inserted into anything. In reality, many people dream that they have become something else, experiencing the feelings of those creatures' actions according to their own understanding.

Later, on Sunday, he pretended to explain the whole story to Gopher.

Gopher also showed his anger at the right time.

Just like in the game, on Sunday, the dreamer underwent a "harmonious" baptism in the presence of a robin.

But he deliberately avoided the key questions, allowing Gopher to answer fluently.

Unfortunately, Walter was standing nearby at that moment.

In terms of acting and strategy, even if Sunday and Gopher Wood were tied together, they wouldn't be a match for Otto.

However, Huang Quan did not compare the particle size with Walter this time.

As Danlei's friend, Huang Quan would not reveal Danlei's goal—the philosophical embryo of order—to the Starry Sky Train crew, with whom he was not very familiar.

Therefore, Walter failed to obtain from the underworld the clue that "the source of all tragedy lies lurking within the family."

Fortunately, the fact that Walter didn't know Pinocchio's problem lay in its lack of order doesn't mean he had no other suspicions.

Therefore, Walter, whose memories of his struggle with Otto were stirred up, accurately detected the flaw in Sunday's questioning and asked the most crucial question.
"As far as I know, family harmony and prosperity have never relied on so-called laws. Is the god you two just mentioned really the Harmonious One [Hipe]?"

The room fell silent immediately after he said that.

A few seconds later, the dreamer answered just like in the game.
"Mr. Walter should know that his family members are like brothers and sisters, embracing unity and solidarity under His light, and that all disloyalty has nowhere to hide in the face of harmony."

Such exquisite and complex music—if not the divine ruler Hippe, which other deity could perfectly harmonize it?

Regarding this question, Walter, who had already confirmed that Gopher Wood was not the problem, stated it bluntly.

"There are too many. Without the intervention of a deity like the Star God, or even the command of an envoy, to prevent others from lying, the Memory Master possesses a similar ability, provided the person being interrogated cooperates."

So, I have one question: Is the God you believe in truly Hippe?

Seeing that Walter insisted on asking this crucial question, and knowing that the robin's presence would completely expose Sunday's cheating, the Dreamer had no choice but to make the same decision as in the game, saying...

"Being overly perceptive is never a good thing, especially when you are isolated and helpless."

For the sake of our great cause, please allow Mr. Walter and the robin a rest on Sunday.

And let your Heroic Spirit subdue Asuna.
