"It's simple. As long as Your Highness completely surrenders the power of the Holy Grail to me, and I unleash Age of God magic like 'Holy City Flame' and 'Holy City Fall' to successfully summon the Beast of Apocalypse, then that True Ancestor princess will naturally be within my grasp... Pain, pain, pain!!"
Before Shatiao Aige could finish his words, Wang Chong used his fists to hold both sides of his head and spun it violently. The pain made Shatiao Aige speechless.
"What do you want to do? Summoning the 666 beast, let alone whether it can really get rid of the True Ancestor. You want to kill me too? Huh? Can you control the power of summoning this thing to me? You just summon it there? And you want to borrow the Holy Grail, one of the sources of my power. Do you want to help me or harm me?" Wang Chong said as he increased his strength, so that this guy who was thinking about his Holy Grail would recognize his position clearly.
"I'm sorry!" Although Aika Sajo said sorry, there was no apology on her face. Instead, the pain made Aika Sajo feel good again.
"Ah... It hurts so much. As expected, His Royal Highness the Prince is a tsundere. He blames me with his mouth, but he approves of Aika in his heart~ Aika must protect His Royal Highness the Prince!" Sajo Aika thought happily with excitement drooling.
Chapter 221: Eve of the Fourth Night
Wang Chong quickly let go and stopped punishing Shatiao Aige. He had discovered that punishment, especially corporal punishment, was no longer a punishment but a reward for the now masochistic Shatiao Aige. If he continued, it might even arouse her.
As for the power of the Holy Grail, it was naturally impossible for Sajo Aika to use it. Not to mention that it had been completely assimilated by his own power of destruction, and whether it could still be used to perform those Age of Gods magic was uncertain, the most important thing was that it was one of his most important trump cards, and he would not use this power to overturn the table unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Okay, stop fooling around. The sun has already set. The time for the Holy Grail War is almost here. Now hurry back to the living area on the mezzanine and help hide the rooms where Sakura, Shiki, and Illya live. Don't let the Masters or Servants find them." Wang Chong warned.
"What about His Royal Highness the Prince?"
"Me? After arranging the mission for my servants this time, I will go to meet the True Ancestor Princess in person. Let's see who will reach the limit first between me and her." Wang Chong snorted, then walked quickly towards the courtyard.
……
Meanwhile, as night approached, Wang Chong's avatar, under Wang Chong's control, took Jeanne, Irisviel, and Altria to the Cathedral Church at the appointed time. As for Maiya, they had already released her. Of course, they had only released her after she signed a self-compulsory document.
"From now on, we'll be total enemies with Miss Maiya," Altria sighed. Everyone has their own duties. There's no need to dwell on this kind of thing. As the King of Knights, she's seen this happen countless times.
Irisviel was in the heaviest mood, one reason being her daughter Illya. It looked like Illya was most likely trapped in the Sky Garden. Her main goal tonight was not to eliminate any alien servants or masters, but to rescue her daughter Illya.
As for the second reason... it was the prophetic dream. Through the information it had received, Irisviel clearly knew that tonight would come to a crucial turning point. If she failed to seize the opportunity and reverse the situation, she feared that the future would inevitably end in tragedy, just as it had happened in the dream. And Irisviel certainly didn't want this to happen. She wanted to prevent that future, otherwise, what would her betrayal mean?
As for Jeanne, she was quite confident. Perhaps it was because she was naturally inclined to trust others. Therefore, when Tōsaka Tokiomi said that a powerful being would be able to deal with the True Ancestor, Jeanne immediately chose to believe him. And even better news, Wang Chong had just recently confirmed the arrival of that powerful being.
It is precisely because of this that, as long as someone can deal with the True Ancestor, with the bonus of her own class privileges, Jeanne is still very confident in leading everyone to successfully defeat the enemy servants.
As for Wang Chong's clone, he was observing the surroundings along the way, hoping to see if he'd run into another True Ancestor Princess. At least from the current perspective, Elquet hadn't attacked the Sky Garden.
Finally, when Wang Chong, Jeanne d'Arc and the others arrived at the Cathedral Church, Wang Chong suddenly stopped in his tracks because he noticed a very conspicuous girl with short golden hair waving at him.
"Hey~Hey, I forgot to ask your name. You are finally here." The man looked familiar and waved to greet.
Obviously, the other party's movements also attracted the attention of Zhende and others. Zhende asked, "Wang Chongjun? Who is that?"
"She...she is the princess of the True Ancestor clan whom I told you about before, the one I met on the way back. She is also the powerful existence that Tōsaka Tokiomi mentioned before, who will defeat the True Ancestor Master this time." Wang Chong said.
"Fortunately, after I came into contact with Elquet, I told Jeanne and the other three in time. I happened to encounter the matter of Elquet on my way back. It can be regarded as giving them an advance warning about the matter of Elquet. Although there is a time difference of half an hour, as long as it does not involve words related to time, it is still easy to fool them." Wang Chong thought to himself.
"Is she the powerful being capable of defeating that fallen True Ancestor... another True Ancestor?" Artoria couldn't help but scrutinize the other person. The moment she saw his face, she felt a subtle attraction. However, Artoria wasn't the only one who felt the same way. Elquet, standing across from her, also felt the same way after noticing Artoria's gaze.
After all, this scene represents the moment when the heroines from the two world lines meet.
"Nice to meet you again, Your Highness." Wang Chong came to Elquet and said.
"This is already the second time we've met, and you've come as promised. According to your human worldview, we can be considered friends. So you don't have to call me that anymore. I have a name - Elquet Brunstad. Just call me Elquet." Elquet withdrew his gaze from Artoria, looked at Wang Chong and said with a smile.
"The Eye of Perdition shows: Elquet's current favorability is 40."
At this point, Wang Chong felt that Elquet's attitude was a bit too enthusiastic, so he opened the Eye of Sin without hesitation. He discovered that Elquet's favorability had exceeded 40 points, reaching the minimum requirement for a friendly attitude. In other words, Elquet truly considered Wang Chong a friend.
"It's just a matter of fulfilling an agreement. How can I increase my favorability so quickly?" Wang Chong thought to himself.
"Host, have you forgotten that you have a bunch of halo buffs and heroic passive skill bonuses. Just based on your face and your own temperament, it is easy to gain a high favorability." The system also reminded at this time.
"No wonder," Wang Chong muttered to himself, then introduced his name to Elquet. "Wang Chong. The king of kings, Chong of charge."
"Wang Chong... that's easy to remember. I'll just call you by that name from now on." Elquet nodded, then stretched his arms and revealed a strange smile. He half-hid his face with one hand and said, "So, can we get started now? I can't wait to catch that guy."
"Why does it feel like the other party speaks so easily, as if he can easily deal with that True Ancestor?" Joan of Arc couldn't help but think after hearing Elquet's words.
"Be patient, Elquet. Our Master and Servants haven't all gathered yet. It won't be too late for us to go up after everyone is here." Wang Chong thought that the other party was really anxious, so he hurried to get the Sky Garden ready, while he continued to think of ways to delay Elquet with his clone.
"Do we have to wait any longer... You're so slow... Those latecomers should just be thrown into the trash. They're useless anyway." After hearing this, Elquet's face, which had originally looked somewhat happy, suddenly drooped. One could even vaguely sense the deeply hidden aura of tyranny in Elquet, which made Wang Chong sigh at how quickly Elquet's expression changed.
"Hahahahahaha—you guys always come so early."
When he heard hearty laughter from the sky, he knew without hesitation that a great emperor had arrived. Iskandar, with his characteristic roar of laughter and roar, drove over in his ox cart. Honestly, Wang Chong had found it quite impressive and refreshing when he first saw it, but now he felt a bit less impressed.
However, this didn't stop some people from staring blankly, finding it quite novel. Erquette, completely oblivious to the differences between men and women, directly grabbed Wang Chong's hand, pointed at the oxcart descending from the sky, and said, "Wang Chong, what is that?"
"That's the Noble Phantasm carried by one of the Master's servants—the Divine Wheel, pulled by two flying-hoofed thunder bulls. It can fly, leaving sparks and lightning all the way," Wang Chong explained.
"Oh! So that strong cow is called Flying Hoof Thunder Bull. It looks like it must be delicious." Elquet licked his lips and said.
"Are you so emotional because of the food?" Wang Chong couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Chapter 222 The Hanging Garden Returns
After Iskandar came down, Wang Chong and the others exchanged pleasantries with him. Iskandar naturally noticed the unfamiliar face of Elquet and was about to ask a question when he heard Elquet speak instead:
"Big guy, you have two cows here. Can you let me eat one?"
After hearing this, Iskandar was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said, "Hahaha, little girl, they have been my companions for many years. There is no way I would let anyone eat them."
"Eh? Treating food as companions? You humans have really weird thoughts." Elquet gave them a strange look, but didn't say much.
However, Iskandar heard something else in these words. He asked curiously, "You humans? Little girl, who are you...?"
"The Conqueror Queen is the one that Tōsaka Tokiomi mentioned before. She is a powerful being who can destroy that True Ancestor. She is also a True Ancestor, and a princess among the True Ancestors." Wang Chong also introduced her at this time.
"Eh!? A princess among the True Ancestors? Could it be the White Princess from Millennium City?" At this time, Weber, who heard the news, also emerged from the chariot and said in surprise.
"I didn't expect the legend to be true. Ancient texts record that among the True Ancestors there was a princess known as Baiji. However, Baiji's fame wasn't due to her status as a princess, but rather her reputation as a murderer capable of killing other True Ancestors... She was considered the executioner prepared by the True Ancestors."
Waver recalled that he had been searching for information on the mysterious side and had accidentally come across some information about the True Ancestor, so he spoke.
"Hey... Has anyone told you that you talk too much?" However, at this time, Elquet's face became a little cold, and a faint monster aura began to float out of her body. Her cat pupils were even erected, staring at Weber who made her unhappy.
"Ah! I'm... sorry!!" Weber only then realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, especially in front of others. Facing the other party's terrifying aura, he was immediately frightened.
At this time, Iskandar protected Waver behind him, but with a cheerful smile on his face, he laughed and said, "So, you can be considered the king of your tribe. I am Iskandar, the King of Conquerors. I am honored to meet you today. How about making friends?"
Seeing Iskandar's sincere smile and attitude, Elquet's aura began to fade. He put his hands on his hips and smiled as well, "You big guy are quite interesting, and your words are even more interesting. But let's just be friends."
"Huh? Why is that?" Iskandar asked curiously.
"Because I have a friend, and you don't look good as a big guy." Elquet said, pointing at Wang Chong with a smile.
"Ah...hahahaha, then I am indeed not as good as Caster. But you, Caster, are really lucky to be able to make friends with heroes so easily." When Iskandar heard what Elquet said, he was stunned again, then burst into laughter, looked at Wang Chong with an expression of admiration, and said.
As for the name Caster, although he already knew Wang Chong's true identity, Iskandar had been accustomed to calling him Caster and the Ruined King for so long, so he simply did not change these two names.
"Iskander is joking." Wang Chong did not take Iskandar's words seriously. He knew that the emperor had another handsome form, which had the BUFF skill of a beautiful young man. If we really talk about appearance control, the former emperor was not bad.
"Okay, let's go into the Cathedral Church first. Business is important. The Lancer and his Master on the opposite side have arrived." At this time, Irisviel pointed at the Diarmait and Sora duo who were walking towards the front and said.
"Then let's go to the Cathedral Church first. Elquet, you...?" Wang Chong looked at Elquet and asked.
"I'll walk with you for a while, but I don't have time to listen to you debating. I'll rush over as soon as the time comes. You guys go about your business, I'm in a hurry." Elquet shrugged.
The group then headed towards the Cathedral Church, where they soon spotted the waiting master and disciple pair, Tōsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Kirei, as well as Matou Kariya, who had already arrived. Diarmait then arrived with his current Master, Sora, and the seven Masters gathered once again.
At this time, Tōsaka Tokiomi saw Elquet, who had come with Wang Chong. He frowned at first, wondering why Wang Chong had brought a stranger with him. However, as an old fox, he was still sensitive to information and was suddenly shocked. "Could this be the Lady Baiji that the Magic Association and the Holy Church have been talking about?"
Tōsaka Tokiomi knew that Wang Chong, like the rest of them, was a cunning individual and wouldn't bring anyone in to cause trouble. Furthermore, Tōsaka Tokiomi felt an inexplicable unease upon seeing Elquet, a feeling deeply rooted in the human soul: a fear and rejection of those who are different. Therefore, Tōsaka Tokiomi quickly determined the identity of the person before him.
"Your face looks unfamiliar. May I ask if you are the Lady Baiji mentioned by the Holy Church?" Tōsaka Tokiomi made a prompt decision, took two steps forward, put on a very respectful attitude, and asked.
"So what?" Elquet glanced at the middle-aged man who had spoken to her, then looked away with a lack of interest. Although Elquet had only recently entered the world of magic, she had seen enough magicians like Tōsaka Tokiomi to know them. They were not only boring but also sometimes did things that disgusted her. Therefore, she had never liked interacting with such people.
"This time, we have encountered a formidable enemy, a True Ancestor of unknown origin. Furthermore, the Einzberns, a family I share a close friendship with, have all perished at the hands of this demon. His abilities are treacherous, and we are powerless to handle them. Therefore, we only hope that Lady Baiji can eliminate this scourge for us."
Upon hearing this, Tōsaka Tokiomi was delighted and quickly spoke, secretly sighing that he had guessed correctly. But then he couldn't help but glance at Wang Chong, thinking, "This man named Wang Chong, it's fine if I can't find his background, but how come he always runs into all the good things first? Forget about the matter of Jeanne the Judge, I spent the whole day searching for that White Princess, and yet you found her first and brought her here. How abominable."
"Oh." However, Elquet only responded without any emotional fluctuation, as if he was not moved at all by what Tōsaka Tokiomi said.
Seeing Elquet's lukewarm attitude, Tōsaka Tokiomi felt a bit awkward, unable to grasp what the other party meant and wanting to continue persuading him. But then Wang Chong interrupted, "Master Tōsaka, Hakuji doesn't like nagging. Now that she's here, she'll naturally take action. Instead of these polite words, why not get down to business first? The covenant and the self-compulsory certificate are already here. If there's no problem, please sign them."
Seeing Wang Chong take out the paper, Tōsaka Tokiomi didn't ask any more questions. He took the covenant and read it carefully. It didn't contain too many personal opinions. It was mainly for them to jointly deal with those alien servants tonight, to prevent each other from backstabbing or even not helping each other in danger, and to advance and retreat together.
It was just that the words between his lips made Tohsaka Tokiomi feel that the above content was completely mocking what he had done last night. But Tohsaka Tokiomi was very well-mannered and didn't care about such things. Since he couldn't find any faults, Tohsaka Tokiomi just signed it. After all, there was still room for maneuver in this matter, so he just signed it openly.
"I have confirmed the contents inside and there are not too many problems. Then let's go into the Holy Church together and sign this contract under the witness of the Supervisor. And then we will make a detailed plan to attack that city. How about it?" Toosaka Tokiomi rolled up the scroll again and then asked.
"it is good……"
"Wait, something's happening! Everyone, come closer! My Lord is here!"
Just as Wang Chong agreed and was about to lead everyone into the Cathedral Church, Joan of Arc's expression suddenly changed. Then all the weapons on her body were revealed. She held the flag high in her hand, and the holy light appeared again, creating an area with a radius of 10 meters, covering everyone.
At this moment, the dark clouds in the sky quickly and quietly dissipated, and a huge fortress in the sky slowly emerged from the clouds in everyone's sight. That was the current base camp of the alien servants - the Sky Garden.
"A flying castle? How interesting? It would be great if the Millennium City was like this." Unlike the serious attitude of others, Elquet was excited after seeing it.
Chapter 223: Do you remember how many slices of bread you have eaten so far?
When everyone saw the flying sky garden, they all showed caution, because they all knew that the enemy was attacking again. And this time, the mysterious True Ancestor would strike again.
The power that silently appeared nearby was truly impossible to guard against. If Jeanne hadn't used her class to sense the approaching auras of numerous Servants and activated her Noble Phantasm immediately, she and her companions would have been inexplicably stricken once again by the time they reached the castle.
And at this moment, that extremely evil voice came from the sky:
"Ants, have you decided how to die today? Or do you think you can survive by hiding in your turtle shells?"
Just as Altria was about to unsheathe the Sword of Promised Victory, Wang Chong stopped her and shook his head, saying, "Someone will take action, don't worry. Use your ultimate move against the castle's defenses."
"Wang Chong, the guy who was talking is the one I want to deal with?" At this time, Elquet next to him showed a strange smile, patted Wang Chong's shoulder and said.
"Well... are you sure you can handle it?" Wang Chong pretended to ask.
"Who knows? We'll find out when we meet." Elquet looked up at the castle, but his red eyes began to glow with a faint golden light. Wang Chong knew that Elquet had entered combat mode.
……
Above the clouds, the real Wang Chong had put on a mask and transformed into Dio again. He looked at the people below and knew that he would soon fight with the True Ancestor Princess. For a moment, his body unconsciously became a little excited.
"Master." At this time, Mordred appeared beside Wang Chong.
"Mordred, have all the personnel been deployed?" Wang Chong asked.
"Everything is ready and we can start at any time. The transfer trap is also ready." Mordred said.
"Okay, several Masters will be eliminated tonight, so it's time to speed up this Holy Grail War. You go back and wait." After Wang Chong finished speaking, he jumped directly from the sky island. Seeing this, Mordred didn't say anything more and immediately turned around and walked towards where he was waiting.
"This time, it's time to make a final break with my father." Mordred thought to himself.
As Wang Chong rapidly descended, he fully unleashed his [Savior of the Evil] aura, instantly enveloping him in an aura of supreme evil. As for his clone, after a long period of multitasking, he was able to maintain his focus on the battle while allowing it to continue to stay with the others.
Finally, Wang Chong floated above the Cathedral Church, his proud posture as he stepped on the cross. This was probably enough to make the extremists of the Cathedral Church shout "heretic demon" and rush forward regardless of their lives, vowing to kill this damn alien who defiled their sacred place.
After Wang Chong stretched his muscles, he completely released the murderous aura from his body. For a moment, everyone felt this oppressive mental shock, though each person's condition varied. Ordinary Masters, for example, were essentially trembling instinctively. As for the Heroic Spirits, their expressions only grew more solemn.
"It's still the same old turtle shell. You don't really think this stupid thing can stop me. If you don't have any other skills, let's settle last night's account today." Wang Chong snorted coldly and said.
"Hey!" At this moment, Elquet walked in front of everyone, crossed his arms, and looked at Wang Chong, who was standing above the church in the form of Dio, with great interest.
"Hehe, it's such a vicious and disgusting aura. How much human blood have you sucked so far?" The golden light in Elquet's eyes became more and more prominent, and he asked.
"Do you remember how many slices of bread you have eaten so far?" Wang Chong pointed to his mouth with an indifferent attitude, as if human life was just like the slices of bread for human breakfast in his eyes.
However, it was precisely this statement that aroused the anger of some Heroic Spirits. Among them, Altria even shouted: "You bastard! What do you think of human life!?"
"Oh, are you angry? Pigs, cows and sheep eat grass, humans eat pigs, cows and sheep, and I feed on humans. This is the law of the jungle. Why? Is it because you humans have occupied this world for too long, do you really think you are the masters of this world?" Wang Chong sneered, profoundly interpreting the image of a very classic cannibal alien villain.
"Ding - Congratulations to the host for his cannibal bread theory, which has caused anger among most people present and panic among some. Your villain image has taken deep root in everyone's hearts. A total of 400 villain points are awarded, and the current villain points are 9200 points." The system's prompt sound also sounded at this moment.
"1 piece." However, at this moment, Elquet said lightly.
"Hmm?" Not only was Wang Chong somewhat surprised, but even the Servants and Masters beside him were a little confused by Elquet's answer. Was this a question about the quantity of bread?
"As for me, I seldom come out. But every time I come out, before killing those fallen True Ancestors, I will try to experience the interesting things in the human world. Food, entertainment, all kinds of novel things. Therefore, I remember very clearly everything related to the human world that I have experienced." Elquet said calmly, one hand on his waist.
"The first time I ate bread, it was quite unpalatable, dark and hard. I haven't touched bread since then. I got it from a frail old woman. She had only that ration left, and all she wanted was to take her daughter to the city to prevent her from freezing to death."
"I had intended to take them both to the city, but the old woman died before I could do anything. Humans are such fragile creatures. A harsh environment alone is enough to easily take their lives."
"But these fragile creatures are now everywhere in the world. Every time they come out, I see something new and different. Some good, some bad. But each time is different, always different. I guess it's because of their unique creativity that humans have been able to conquer this world. That's why, for so many years, my monotonous and unerring days of execution have been filled with interesting scenes."
After saying this, Elquet placed his left hand on his face, covering half of it so that no one could see his emotions. At the same time, golden light burst out from his eyes, and powerful magical fluctuations and pressure rose from his body.
"Your mind is filled with the law of the jungle, viewing humans as mere prey. With a mindset no different from that of livestock, it's no wonder you can't remember your own ugly deeds, let alone discover the interesting qualities of humans. In conclusion, for both public and private reasons, you deserve to die."
After saying this, Elquet took a step forward and walked towards Wang Chong, preparing to leave the range of the golden shield deployed by Joan of Arc.
