The villain's journey from the Type-Moon world

"As expected... you are the guy who is also pursuing the elixir of immortality. The Ruined King is simply a figment of your imagination... Your real identity is the First Emperor, right?" Iskandar laughed and said.

"Hmph, a miscellaneous cultivator." Gilgamesh obviously remembered the scene on the first night when a shameless guy pretended to flatter him but actually kept showing off in front of him.

"..." Wang Chong simply smiled faintly and didn't answer, letting the others acquiesce. Then, Wang Chong continued, "As for the outcome, you've seen it. Everything I built was destroyed by my unworthy descendants. Haha, to be honest, the reason I responded to the Holy Grail was to see, a thousand years from now, if the rule I established would survive my death and be passed down through the generations. Unexpectedly, I ended up perishing in my second generation."

"So, we are very similar, aren't we? In that case, why not obtain a physical body like me, fight in this world, and then try to realize your ideals again?" Iskandar said with a smile.

"No, I'm not someone who can't afford to lose. Since I've already lost and become a dead man, I'll just rest in peace in my imperial mausoleum... Death means we have to face failure. Since we've become dead, why bother disturbing the world of the living any more?" Wang Chong said slowly.

"Have you lost the motivation to move on just because of this?" Iskandar frowned.

"Actually, there's another real reason. Iskandar, when I first learned the news, I was just like you. Reading about the history related to me, I felt resentful. This will become the seed of our desires." Wang Chong paused, then continued, "However, after observing what happened on that land for a long time, up to this day, I suddenly understood. In fact, my wish has already been fulfilled."

"Huh?" Iskandar was stunned at first, but he quickly understood. Gilgamesh, who was listening nearby, also opened his eyes.

"Although the country I built has perished, my ministers remain, the legal system I established remains, and my ideology of unifying the entire Chinese land has been passed down for thousands of years." Wang Chong smiled and said, "Although the Qin Dynasty fell in the second generation, everything I did was not in vain. As long as these things I established are passed down from generation to generation, then my Great Qin will never truly perish, and my rule will continue forever. Isn't this the true immortality I seek?"

Chapter 161: Magic Cannon from the Sky

After hearing Wang Chong's words, the three kings present couldn't help but shrink their eyes. The first to react was Gilgamesh. He chuckled and said, "The First Emperor? No wonder you dare to claim first place in front of me. You are just like Rider. I will kill you with my own hands."

"Hahaha, Caster, you really are a formidable fellow." Iskandar also laughed heartily. Then he looked at Altria, who was still lost in thought, and shook his head inwardly, thinking, "Caster probably said all this more for the Knight King girl. That's right, after all, they were the first to form an alliance. It seems that Caster is quite optimistic about this girl. It's just a pity that those involved are often confused while those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly."

"Here they come." At this moment, Wang Chong, who was still sipping his wine, had already sensed someone approaching based on the black fog outside the Tōsaka residence. The person who came was none other than Emiya Kiritsugu, one of tonight's targets.

However, he seemed to have noticed the Heroic Spirits patrolling the courtyard, so he didn't act rashly. It seemed he planned to observe the Tōsaka family's movements before deciding who to attack.

"In that case, let me add fuel to the fire." Wang Chong began to communicate with someone.

"Tramp—tramp—" Suddenly, at the edge of the forest outside the courtyard, a sound of footsteps could be heard without any concealment. It was immediately noticed by all the Heroic Spirits present. The four at the table were no exception, all looking in that direction.

"Knight King, it seems this is another old acquaintance of yours." Wang Chong looked at Artoria and said. Artoria was in a very bad mood at the moment. She gripped her sword tightly and stared at the newcomer.

Sure enough, in the forest, the unusual Servant Mordred, who had appeared first time and again, appeared in everyone's sight once again. However, Mordred's expression was very gloomy at this moment.

"Strange Saber! How dare you break into the Tohsaka family alone? Do you look down on all of us?" At this time, several Hassans appeared in the front and questioned.

"Anyone who stands in my way--" A high-energy magical reaction and a crimson aura rose from Modred's body. The strong murderous intent and anger in her eyes could not be concealed. Modred drew her sword in an instant, and blood danced on her sword, surrounding Modred's body. The Hassans were killed instantly.

"--die!!"

Mordred stepped hard, her target was very clear, directly at Artoria.

"boom!"

A cloud of smoke billowed as Gilgamesh leaped onto the attic, dodging the blow. He stared down with indifference, his anger building. He dared to stir up trouble on his own territory. Gilgamesh didn't care about any grudges; he was determined to blast this "rat" who had suddenly intruded into the banquet into dust.

When the smoke below dissipated, it was seen that Mordred's sword was blocked by the weapons of three servants at the same time. They were Altria, who was the main target of Mordred's attack, and Iskandar and Wang Chong, who did not retreat.

"Hey, red Saber, you really don't care about the atmosphere. You actually dare to charge into the encirclement of servants alone. Should we say that you are brave and powerful, or should we say that you are stupid?" Iskandar said.

"Get lost! I'll kill you next, you idiot who's full of arrogance and knows nothing!" Mordred shouted angrily, instantly releasing his magic power, intending to blast the three away. But even if Mordred had replenished his magic today, how could he be a match for the three?

"Hah!" As a result, it was Modred who was pushed back by Wang Chong and the other two.

Artoria was about to go forward again when Wang Chong stopped her with his hand. He said, "Don't be impatient. The master hasn't spoken yet. Don't forget who Mordred is slapping in the face. If you rush forward rashly, don't get caught."

Sure enough, the next moment, countless treasures descended upon Mordred from above, and a series of explosions echoed. A voice from the roof roared angrily, "How dare a mere cultivator tread upon my domain and do such a disgraceful act! I will blast you to dust!"

"Who are you calling a bastard, you golden bastard?!" The words of Jinshanshan completely infuriated Mordred. When the smoke dissipated, Mordred was not only fine, but also holding high the Silver King Sword, a red high-energy magic reaction rose up, and his fighting spirit and killing intent reached the extreme.

"Clarent-Blood-Arthur (Rebellion against my magnificent father)!!"

A massive beam cannon blasted directly towards Gilgamesh, who, unfortunately, landed right at the Tōsaka residence. Just as Gilgamesh snorted, ready to unleash a barrage of Noble Phantasms to blast the beam cannon, Wang Chong appeared in front of the residence, gathering a massive black mist and using the Blade of the Ruined King to block the beam cannon's attack.

"I don't need your help!" Gilgamesh fired his Noble Phantasm again, blasting it towards Mordred, who was in the process of unleashing his Noble Phantasm. Under pressure, Mordred had no choice but to interrupt his Noble Phantasm and dodge.

"Don't get me wrong, I just think that the way you fight against the light cannon can only protect yourself, but not the masters in the room." Wang Chong said lightly.

"Oh, they are all my subjects and guests. If this cultivator hurts anyone again, I will lose my dignity. Don't get in the way!" Gilgamesh jumped out and spread his hands. More doors to the royal wealth opened, and more treasures were about to kill Mordred with cold murderous intent.

"Those so-called alien rats are already stupid and annoying enough. If you dare to jump out alone today, I will kill one of them as a warning to scare you rats!" Gilgamesh was about to launch his treasure.

"Wait! Hero King, something is wrong!" But suddenly, the king below said abruptly.

Suddenly, a red flash appeared in the thin clouds in the sky, and then a high-energy magical reaction descended from the sky.

"What?" Gilgamesh also noticed the giant light cannon coming from the sky at this moment, and instantly changed the direction of his treasure and shot it into the sky.

"Boom boom..."

A series of explosions suddenly sounded, and at this moment, the magician masters who had already noticed the noise came out of the Tohsaka family.

"Not good!" Wang Chong immediately noticed that the Golden Pickup's Noble Phantasms were no match for him. A large amount of black mist instantly gathered and filled the sky. Then, it rushed towards all the Masters and shouted, "Don't resist! I'll take you away!"

"How is this possible!!" Gilgamesh also noticed that his pile of treasures only weakened the power of the light cannon and could not block it at all. In an instant, Gilgamesh immediately grabbed a treasure from the royal treasure.

"boom!!"

The light of the light cannon instantly engulfed the Tōsaka family. All the servants present were shocked and resisted the huge energy aftermath caused by the light cannon explosion. Even Emiya Kiritsugu, who was still observing in the forest, immediately fell to the ground and was almost blown away by the blast.

"Aili!!" Kiritsugu Emiya felt a sudden pain in his heart. He never thought that things would turn out to this point. All the Masters, including Irisviel, were gathered in that room, and now they were all wiped out by a beam of light.

"Is it Toosaka? He must have a tunnel that can avoid this attack and evacuate in time. Damn guy, he is still a step too late!" Emiya Kiritsugu felt a little regretful. He regretted that he did not use the Command Seal Saber to kill Toosaka Tokiomi in the first place.

"...and Saber. I must win the Holy Grail War...at any cost!" Emiya Kiritsugu clenched his fists tightly and said to himself.

At the scene, after the energy of the light cannon disappeared, Artoria looked at the annihilated pit in disbelief and said in a daze: "How could it be..."

"Hey! Saber! Calm down! We haven't disappeared! The masters should be fine!" At this time, a voice like thunder sounded, and Iskandar said with a heavy face.

"Over there!" Diarmait, who had sharp eyesight, pointed to a place in the smoke. After the smoke dissipated, two servants spitting blood appeared in everyone's sight. Wang Chong opened the black mist, and Gilgamesh raised a huge shield. Behind them were the masters with different expressions. It seemed that it was the two of them working together to block the bombardment of the luminous cannon.

"You...look! What is that thing!!" The terrified Weber stared at the sky and suddenly shouted loudly.

In the sky, a huge fortress slowly broke through the thin clouds, revealing its huge posture and appearing in the eyes of everyone present.

Chapter 162: The Power of the Sky Garden

Under the gaze of the crowd, a towering, vast aerial garden slowly descended. Its vastness was like a city floating in the sky, towering over all. Its cup-shaped form, its thick, solid walls and deployed magical shields betrayed its formidable defensive power. Eleven pitch-black, twenty-meter-long slabs hovered in the air, creating a formidable presence. The garden blocked out the moonlight, casting a vast shadow over the Tōsaka family's lands.

"What on earth... is this thing!" Even the knowledgeable Tōsaka Tokiomi couldn't help but feel shocked and terrified when he saw this huge building.

"This is... impossible? Could this be the real killer weapon of those alien servants!?" Joan of Arc also used her True Name to see through it at this time. For a moment, all the information about this treasure was displayed in Joan of Arc's mind. Seeing the introduction about this treasure, Joan of Arc felt even more heavy-hearted.

What was even more terrifying was that she felt the presence of six servants above her. Including Mordred on the ground, there were exactly seven servants!

Seven versus seven... This was the worst-case scenario that Zhendace and Wang Chong had discussed. This meant that if even one of their players was eliminated, they would be in a very unfavorable position.

"What is this...? Damn Faker!" Gilgamesh lowered his shield, his eyes narrowing as he quickly recognized the Noble Phantasm. The architectural style was incredibly familiar to Gilgamesh; it was a creation of their Mesopotamian civilization—the Hanging Gardens. After all, as the king of the Sumerian civilization, the oldest of the Mesopotamian civilizations, Gilgamesh was well-versed in identifying artifacts from his own system. Because of this, he could instantly discern the authenticity of the Noble Phantasm.

"Hero King, do you recognize this thing?" Wang Chong asked.

"Hmph! It's nothing more than a fake... But if my predictions are correct, the owner of this treasure is probably some little fellow from the future generations of my domain. Oh, I want to see which unworthy descendant it is."

Gilgamesh sneered and didn't explain further. This matter had already been dragged into his "family affairs," and as a king who valued his reputation above all else, he naturally just wanted to get these things sorted out quickly.

"The name of the Hero King has always been sung in our land. Seeing it today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved." At this time, a voice came from the castle in the sky. It was transmitted to everyone's ears in the form of magic without affecting the surrounding environment.

"Who are you, man? Tell me your name." This time, Gilgamesh did not say such nonsense as before. After all, the Mesopotamian region was his territory. Just as a certain Caster said just now, all the systems in this territory in the future could be regarded as the continuation of his Kingdom of Uruk. Gilgamesh's attitude towards his people was not so bad, and he was even a little tolerant.

"The Queen of the Mesopotamian-Assyrian Kingdom, Semiramis." Only the voice coming from the castle was heard, and everyone was a little surprised that the other party gave her real name so easily.

"Assyria? Wait... Semiramis?" Gilgamesh frowned, then a look of disgust rose in his eyes. He saw that this woman was involved with a damned scumbag goddess.

"Leave this place now, and I will forgive your crime of usurpation! Otherwise, you will die at my hands along with those rats." Gilgamesh ordered.

"Hahaha, Hero King Gilgamesh. This is no longer the era you rule. Now I am strong and you are weak. What qualifications do you have to order me to leave?" Semiramis said with a hint of sarcasm. "Rather than all that, I would rather you kneel before this Queen."

"Looking for death!" Gilgamesh unfolded countless treasures and flew towards the castle in the sky.

At this moment, the 11 black plates floating around seemed to react, lighting up with red light patterns and firing one magic bullet after another to bombard the incoming treasures.

"Boom boom boom..." The treasure and the magic bullet collided with each other.

"Is this the treasure of the King of Heroes? It doesn't look like much more than this." Semiramis said sarcastically.

"You bastard—!" Gilgamesh once again charged forward, his Noble Phantasm in hand. He intended to follow his previous battle against Wang Chong and break through to the castle in the sky. For a moment, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle in the sky, and the surroundings were constantly bombarded with various light bullets. All the Servants rushed to the Master's side to protect him from the attack.

"No... If this kind of fighting continues, innocent people around will be hurt... These damn guys." Toosaka Tokiomi was looking at the scene around him that was constantly being destroyed. If this continued, the battle on the mysterious side would completely involve Tomoyo. As the controller of Fuyuki City, Toosaka Tokiomi would never allow this to happen.

"Rider, do you have a way to use the Noble Phantasm you used last time to cover that castle?" Waver said as he climbed onto Iskandar's frame.

"The distance seems not enough, we need to fly up. But those magic bullets are too dense, it's not easy to get close." Iskandar frowned and said.

"Let me cover you, King of Conquerors." Wang Chong stepped forward and said.

"Oh? With your help, Qin Shi Huang, there will be no problem. Do you want to get on?" Iskandar said, pointing to his ox cart.

"No, this is faster." Wang Chong immediately soared into the air. With a wave of his hand, countless black mists swept up, blocking the light bullets and clearing Iskandar's way. Iskandar said nothing more and immediately drove the ox cart closer to the castle.

"Rider! Envelope everyone! You three alone can't defeat them!" Suddenly, Joan of Arc ran out and shouted to Iskandar in the sky.

"Hmm?" Iskandar frowned slightly, then looked at Wang Chong. Wang Chong turned around and said, "Do as my Master says."

"Well, we'll be fine as long as we get here." Iskandar assessed the distance between the two sides and shouted, "Ionioi Hetairoi (The King's Army)!"

A ray of light instantly burst out from Iskandar, illuminating not only all the Servants and Masters on the earth, Gilgamesh who was constantly moving forward in the sky and the entire castle, but also Kiritsugu Emiya who had just crawled up from the grass, and a lurking shadow that was quickly approaching.

Wang Chong narrowed his eyes slightly, and under the light, he said calmly:

"Switch the clone."

……

"Is this... Rider's most powerful Noble Phantasm? An inherent barrier." Tōsaka Tokiomi's heart sank when he saw the scene around him.

“No matter how many times I see it, Rider’s Noble Phantasm is truly astonishing.” Irisviel sighed as she looked at the sandy scene around her.

"Hey! Why did you let that Servant cover us all? Do you want to kill us? Why don't you say something--!?" At this time, Sora became unyielding to Jeanne. Just as he was about to step forward and criticize her, he was stopped by Diarmuid.

"Madam Sora, let's stop here. Don't forget that Miss Leticia's Caster just saved everyone's lives." Diarmait said in a deep voice.

"Sorry..." Sora didn't want to make Diarmait angry, so he lowered his head and stopped bothering Jeanne.

"Ms. Leticia, may I ask if you have discovered anything?" Kotomine Kirei came out and asked.

Jeanne glanced at Kotomine Kirei, then spoke, "Each of the enemy castle's light bullets is at the level of an anti-military force, and the power of the magic cannon earlier even reached the astonishing EX level. Moreover, the enemy is very likely a new Alien Servants... Don't forget, Alien Servants haven't appeared yet. Those guys are very likely all in that castle... Think carefully about the number of Alien Servants. Do you still think that relying on just Rider, Caster, and Archer can solve this problem?"

After these words were spoken, the Master and Servant fell into deep thought. However, the battle had already begun at the forefront.

Countless Macedonian warriors and heroes arrived once again, marching with powerful steps, gathering around the conquering king, Iskandar. Iskandar raised his greatsword, pointing it at the castle in the sky, and shouted, "The enemy is the Empress of the Assyrian Kingdom, hidden deep within that sky-high fortress! Warriors, demonstrate our conquest and dominance to this enemy in the sky!"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!" The soldiers responded to the slogan together and pointed directly at the castle in the sky.

Chapter 163: The Great Brawl (Part 1)

Eleven pitch-black magic plates in the sky continuously rained down magical bullets, many of which were directed at Gilgamesh, who was constantly approaching. Meanwhile, Semiramis, seated on her throne at the very heart of the Hanging Gardens, observed her surroundings with clairvoyance, constantly adjusting her magic spells to bombard the Heroic Spirits within her sight. Of course, Semiramis, at someone's request, deliberately avoided a particular Master, even using the dust raised by her magic bullets to obscure their vision.

"Stheno should have used the power of concealing his breath to approach Emiya Kiritsugu. At that time, I will give some hints to ensure that Emiya Kiritsugu will definitely kill Tōsaka Tokiomi unwaveringly. Semiramis, remember to cover for her. Although Jeanne can sense where she is, she must not let Jeanne see what Steno is doing." At this time, Wang Chong came out carrying a white-haired girl on his back and said to Semiramis on the throne.

"I understand, but... why did you bring this little girl out? The fight is going on fiercely right now." Semiramis said slowly.

"After all, I promised her I would take her to see how her parents are doing." Wang Chong put Illya down and said, "Go ahead. Don't disturb your sister Semiramis. She's helping your father teach those hostile Servants a lesson."

"Really? I want to see Kiritsugu and my mother." Illya ran to Semiramis's side with excitement, looking at the projection inside, and was deeply attracted by the battle on the screen.

"Master, does your conscience really not hurt?" Looking at the innocent little girl sitting beside him, Semiramis looked at Wang Chong and used the power of magic to ask Wang Chong through voice transmission.

"From the moment I swallowed the Holy Grail, I have been on the opposite side of these Masters. Especially Emiya Kiritsugu, he is a stubborn person. He will not give up unless he confirms it with his own eyes. If they had been on the original path, they were destined to embark on a path of self-destruction. It would be better to say that it was me who saved them both from this destruction. Of course, I admit that selfish motives played a greater role here." Wang Chong said without comment.

"So, out of your selfish motives, you simply saved Mrs. Irisviel and Illya, the mother and daughter. As for Emiya Kiritsugu, you completely ignored him and even took the blame, right? I'm embarrassed to point out what you were thinking, Master." Semiramis chuckled and shook her head.

"I'm really sorry, I'm just such a selfish guy. Okay, please take good care of Ellie for me. The other servants have already landed and are ready to fight those heroic spirits. I'm also going to the edge to keep an eye on that golden pickup." Wang Chong said with a smile.

"That Gympika might be quite capable, but is it really necessary to keep a close eye on him?" Semiramis couldn't help but say as she watched Gilgamesh on the screen dodging and colliding his magic bullets with his Noble Phantasm.

"Don't underestimate him, he's just not serious. The only one here who can deal with him is probably the Knight King, who possesses a holy sword and can release a Noble Phantasm." Wang Chong said, "That guy has an EX-level Anti-World Noble Phantasm, the Sword of Separation (EA), in his King's Treasury. If he activates it at full power, I'm afraid your Sky Garden won't be able to stop it. But thankfully, this guy is too arrogant to use it lightly. But there are always exceptions. If he really wants to make a move, I don't mind chopping off his elbow before he uses that Noble Phantasm."

"An EX-level anti-world treasure?" Upon hearing this word, Semiramis's face became serious.

"Don't worry, I'm watching this guy. He can't pull out EA. Even if he does manage to use it, I can handle it. Just focus on shocking them tonight. Okay, I should go follow them." Wang Chong used the black mist to transmit his voice, then said to Illya, "Illya, listen to Sister Semiramis. Okay, big brother will go help your father Kiritsugu later."

"Okay! Come on, big brother!" At this time, the innocent Illya waved goodbye and cheered for Wang Chong.

"Tsk tsk, I'm kind-hearted and can't stand seeing this kind of thing." Semiramis clicked her tongue twice, hugged Illya in her arms, and let her watch the situation below carefully.
