Paradise: Ready Player One

Instead, I saw an ice tower several meters high.

Matou Kariya stepped forward to check, and with the help of the hazy moonlight, he could see clearly what was in front of him, this sight made his heart beat violently in his chest.

What kind of ice tower is this?

It's just a bunch of frozen engraving worms.

I just don't know why it appears in this form.

Just when Matou Yanye was puzzled, the worm tower suddenly collapsed and fell towards him.

This accident made Matou Kariya so scared that he forgot to breathe, and wanted to dodge, but he was a step too late, and his whole body was submerged in the corpse of the engraving worm.

Chapter 261 People Not Favored by Fate and Their Calls

Before Matong Kariya struggled out of the insect corpse, he suddenly felt something alive was going into his mouth.

There's even a nasty slime on the surface.

The thing should be the size of a thumb, but its strength is astonishingly large. Caught off guard, it actually pried Matou Kariya's mouth open.

It entered his body along the throat.

Such a horrific thing made Matou Kariya terrified, he reached out to take it out of his mouth in a panic, but retched for a long time, but he didn't spit out anything, as if what just happened was just an illusion.

A strong sense of uneasiness enveloped every cell in his body, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.

In the next second, there was a strong tingling in the heart.

This made Matou Kariya almost go into shock, and collapsed on the ground, his body twitching uncontrollably.

But the pain came and went quickly.

After a while, Matou Kariya slowly regained consciousness.

At this moment, a familiar and deep voice began to echo in his brain.

(I don't want to die...I want to live...the Holy Grail...bring me the Holy Grail...)

That was Matou Zouken's voice!

Even though Matou Kariya had been away from home for many years, he still recognized the owner of the voice all at once. Cold sweat instantly soaked his whole body of clothes, and he growled hysterically in terror.

"You old bastard, what did you do to me, get out of my body!!"

However, Matou Zouken's voice kept repeating like a machine, ignoring Matou Kariya's intentions at all.

(Holy Grail...I want the Holy Grail...I want...to live)

"Damn! Damn!!"

Seeing that the inquiry was fruitless, Matou Kariya felt more and more fearful, the voice in his head was still playing with his reason, the whole person became a little crazy, hammering his chest angrily.

It seemed like this would hurt Matou Zouken in Hidden's body, but it was in vain.

Matou Kariya, who was shrouded in anger and fear, did not notice that an omen symbolizing the candidates for the "Holy Grail War" quietly appeared on the back of his left hand.

The "Holy Grail War" also has its rules for the selection of the master.

Those who yearn for the Holy Grail are more likely to be chosen.

Now, Matou Zouken's hundreds of years of obsession fell on Matou Kariya, and he naturally received the Holy Grail's response.

I don't know if this is the inertia of the plot, or pure luck.

Matou Kariya appeared here at this time, but if he was a few minutes later, the remaining obsessions of Matou Zouyan would completely lose their sustenance and dissipate in this world.

Paradise's prompt did not report an error.

It is true that Jiantong Zouyan is dead, but the death is not clean. His previous life-saving methods still have a certain effect, at least leaving him with a little bit of insignificant residue.

Originally, this was nothing, without the obsession to rely on, it would not last long at all.

But at the moment when it was about to dissipate, it bumped into the blood of the Matou family.

Let this obsession that can't even be called consciousness be entrusted.

Although this cannot revive Matou Zouyan from Matou Kariya, if it is not removed in time, it will easily pollute and distort the host's consciousness.

However, Matou Kariya, who didn't understand magic at all, didn't realize the seriousness of the problem.

After my mood stabilized a little, I couldn't help but feel a little bit afraid of my performance just now.

I feel like I have changed into a different person just now.

Subconsciously pressing his heart, he didn't feel any abnormality, and even the echoing voice in his brain disappeared.

Everything seems to be back to normal.

Only then did Matou Kariya discover the "omen" on his left hand, and stared blankly at it.

Somehow, he realized.

Something bad is happening to me.

The self-blame for Tohsaka Sakura, the guilt towards Tohsaka Aoi, the fear of her father, etc., are all transforming into one emotion.

"This... is all Tokiomi's fault!"

From a certain point of view, this seems to be no problem.

The collapse of the Matou family spread throughout Fuyuki City the next day. After all, the entire mansion had been turned into a frozen mausoleum, and even ordinary people could tell that something major had happened.

But this time, the excuse of the gas explosion was not so easy to use.

But it didn't bother those people from the Magic Association, who worked overtime to modify the memories of ordinary people.

No one would have imagined that this family that had been passed down for hundreds of years would be destroyed overnight.

Although there are still two heirs of the Matou family alive, but the loss of the magic imprint inherited from the family means that the Matou family in the magic world no longer exists.

The shock caused by the fall of such a famous family is undoubtedly huge.

For a while, Fuyuki City became lively again.

Some people coveted the property left by the Matou family, which led to another "gas explosion" in the next few days.

Make people panic.

A servant was summoned just two days ago, and now the Matou family, one of the "three imperial families", has been destroyed.

All signs seem to indicate that this "Holy Grail War" will be extremely fierce.

Many magic families have already decided to leave Fuyuki City for the time being, and come back when the "Holy Grail War" is over.

This approach is undoubtedly correct.

Tokiomi Tohsaka, who was informed of the news, felt a little complicated. He was grateful for his own caution and regretted the disappearance of Tohsaka Sakura.

Some said he regretted a little, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with his decision.

Who would have expected that the Matou family would be destroyed in this way.

If Tohsaka Aoi heard the news of Tohsaka Sakura's disappearance, I don't know how sad she would be.

But Tohsaka Tokiomi has no time to comfort his wife now.

"Everything is ready, teacher, the summoning ceremony can be performed"

Hearing Kotomine Kirei's words, Tosaka Tokiomi sorted out his emotions, the most important thing now is to summon the servants, otherwise, who knows if he will be the next family to disappear.

At the same time, in the city of Einzbern in the German country, Emiya Kiritsugu was also conducting a summoning ceremony for servants.

But when he finished chanting the spell with full expectation, only to find that the knight king he summoned was a woman, anger suddenly surged into his heart.

Emiya Kiritsugu was not angry because the King of Knights was a woman.

Instead, he was angry at those people around the King of Knights who cruelly pushed the responsibility of the king to a woman.

As for Saber, the first time she saw her Master, she realized that she and the other party's compatibility was definitely not compatible, but she still couldn't imagine how different the compatibility between the two would be.

Chapter 262 Skill Learning

Because of Chen Ming's interference in the plot, the war preparation stage has been accelerated a lot. Including himself, four masters have already completed the summoning ceremony.

For now, only the Church of the Holy Church, which is responsible for supervising the ceremony, should know this news.

However, the Church of the Holy Church at most knows which ranks of servants have been summoned, and they don't know exactly which era these servants are heroes from.

As for Chen Ming, after dealing with the old bug, he stayed at home all day.

Naturally, Kenneth is responsible for collecting the outside information, and he is busy learning "Original Runes" from Scathach.

With the help of the master "Wisdom of the Demon Realm", Chen Ming easily opened the skill experience bar of "Original Rune", and the daily skill learning progress increased rapidly.

Chen Ming's magic power surpasses all other attributes, but he has never been able to use this power well.

This is undoubtedly a great waste.

It's just that spell-casting skill books are very rare in the paradise, let alone in the novice area.

There are such good things, they must be digested naturally, and a few people will take them out and sell them.

Even if there were, they were things that Chen Ming didn't like.

Now it is rare to have such a good opportunity to learn the magic with the power of the "Age of Gods", how could he let it go.

Skaha was very keen on improving Chen Ming's strength and would never refuse.

Just before that, I made a small request.

That is, Chen Ming's spear skills must meet Scatha's requirements.

As her apprentice, she doesn't have to be proficient in other weapons, but the spear is the only one that can't.

What's even more embarrassing is that Scathach doesn't intend to pass on his spear skills to Chen Ming.

Everything can only be understood by himself.

Of course, there will naturally be no shortage of sparring partners.

It is said to be a sparring partner, but for Skaha, it is actually an unparalleled enjoyment.
