Chapter 86 Capture
Medea could sense the special aura of Medusa, a feeling that belonged specifically to the Age of Gods.
After hearing what Medea said, Medusa nodded. She did not hide it, after all, Sakura Matou had started calling her name.
"Medusa."
"It's you?!" Medea showed a look of surprise when she heard the name, but Morpheus was not surprised at all. Instead, he started to think about it.
Although he did not pay much attention to the plot of the game, Morpheus had heard in forums and other places that Type-Moon's Medusa was not Poseidon's woman, nor was she the child of Pontus, the god of the sea. Instead, she was an ancient indigenous god who was demoted because her faith was deprived.
She can even be considered the highest level Earth Mother Goddess!
Morpheus found it inexplicably funny when he thought of the indigenous god Medusa, who was being beaten back step by step by a group of robots dressed in mechanical clothes and full of alien technology.
The myths of this world are so magical.
However, Morpheus didn't have much thought about this. After all, he was just watching the show and had no ability to change the past. Naturally, there was no need to do so.
"By the way, there are your acquaintances, well, they are acquaintances to Medea."
Morpheus said as he looked at Illya. At this moment, this girl who looked young but was actually older than Shirou Emiya and could have gone to college was staring at Medusa.
Not only Medusa, she also looked at Medea, and she now had the same idea in her mind.
"How amazing! I managed to gather three ancient Greeks at once!"
At this moment, she heard Morpheus' voice: "Illya, call him out."
"Oh, Berserker." Illya immediately knew what Morpheus was planning and called out for her Servant. The giant's body appeared in the house, and the relatively high ceiling just prevented the giant from hitting his head.
Seeing the giant, Medusa showed a look of vigilance, while Medea showed a look of surprise.
"Hercules?!" she said, wanting to go over and take a look, but sensing the undisguised madness emanating from him, she frowned, "No, is he going berserk? Yes, he's a Berserker, a Berserker..."
"If he hadn't gone berserk, I wouldn't have had such a good impression of you." Morpheus said, "He's not the Hercules we know. This is the Hercules of this world line."
"No matter what, it's truly tragic that he's lost his basic ability to think because of his frenzy." Medea shook her head and then looked at Illya. "You've actually abandoned his greatest strength."
Illya shook her head and gave a mocking smile. "Because some people don't trust those who can think independently. If that's possible, it's actually better for me, the controller, not to think independently."
Listening to Illya's words full of self-mockery and ridicule of certain existences, Medea was stunned at first, then she immediately opened her magic eye and began to observe Illya carefully with the help of magic.
Then, she saw the dense circuits inside the girl's body, and her body that had almost been transformed to the point where it no longer had the appearance of a human being.
This is definitely not treating the girl in front of him as a human being. She is even worse than an animal. When a hunter kills prey, he will choose a way that does not cause too much pain to the animal, and he will also thank the other party for the gift.
The one in front of her was like a person being treated as a tool, or an experimental subject, without any protection. Just looking at the internal structure of the girl's body, Medea couldn't even imagine what kind of torture she had experienced!
"Perhaps I should be thankful that it was me who was summoned, and not Atalanta," Medea muttered to herself. "If it were her, she might have rushed over in anger and destroyed the entire foundation of the Holy Grail."
Because of her love for her child, Atalanta would indeed do such a thing. She would not allow her child to suffer such pain!
"Okay, let's eat first, and let Hercules eat with us?" Emiya Shirou said at this time. He even looked at Hercules, as if asking the giant if he wanted to sit down as well.
"No need, Berserker can just rely on my magic power." Illya shook her head. Even though Berserker's absorption of magic power would make her body uncomfortable, the girl knew very well that it would be difficult for Hercules, who had gone berserk, to do things that seemed simple to normal people.
But Morpheus was already prepared for this.
He took out a wooden bowl. Medea blinked when she saw it. "Is this the one you made yourself?"
"Yes, come with me." Morpheus nodded. This wooden bowl was made by him when he was in ancient Greece. It could also be used to drink water and soup in the wild. He didn't expect to use it now.
He put the cooked meat and vegetables in it, and without the need for chopsticks, he directly handed the wooden bowl to Hercules.
Even though chopsticks and other things were a bit difficult for the giant's hands to handle, he could still use bowls and other things.
What's more, it's really too sad for a group of people to eat here and let another person stay outside.
Hercules took the wooden bowl and looked at the food inside. He sat aside and slowly began to eat. Then, Morpheus also sat beside him and said, "Shirou is right. Let's eat first. While we eat, I will tell you what happened."
……
Cu Chulainn appeared outside Emiya's residence, then jumped up and landed in the yard.
The yard was very quiet, but you could hear people chatting in the lighted house not far away.
"Is it there?"
Cu Chulainn thought about it and walked forward. Although directly releasing his own power to lure out the servants inside was a good idea, and he even liked this approach more, but unfortunately, the order from above was to investigate.
So, Cu Chulainn approached cautiously, intending to see what the situation was like inside.
Then he heard the discussion inside.
"So, Sakura is also a Master?!"
The voice was quite young, and Cu Chulainn had heard it before. It was the voice of the young man named Emiya Shirou who came to the church last time.
"Oh? Sakura is also a Master? That means besides Emiya Shirou, there are other Masters here?" Cu Chulainn was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would gain such a great deal after coming here.
"Senior, I am indeed the Master, but I personally have no interest in the Holy Grail."
Cu Chulainn listened with amusement. "Another one who has no interest in the Holy Grail. Is that why they are all at peace?"
At this time, Emiya Shirou's voice came again: "Here now, Sakura is the Master, I am the Master, Tohsaka is the Master, Illya is also the Master, there are already four Masters..."
"Four Masters?! Are they cooperating? Ha, even though Kotomine Kirei is hiding now, the celebrities here have also formed an alliance. This will make things difficult!" Cu Chulainn thought, and actually felt a little happy.
"Actually, there are not four masters." At this moment, a male voice sounded, and it was the voice of the man who fought with him last time. This voice left a deep impression on Cu Chulainn.
Because the opponent's fighting power impressed him enough!
The voice's words also startled Cú Chulainn again. "Aren't there four Masters?"
"Medea is not only a Servant, but also a Master. She summoned another Servant, and at the same time, Medea herself is not restricted by the Master. In a sense, she is her own Master. She is two Masters by herself, so in fact, if we really count, there are six Masters and six Servants in total."
Cu Chulainn's mind was a little confused at this time.
"Wait a minute?! There were only seven people summoned for the Holy Grail War, right? And now there are six? Am I the only one who didn't join?"
No matter how much he loved fighting or how brave he was, after discovering the truth, Cu Chulainn's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
Can I find a way to change jobs? Urgent, how can a Servant change jobs?!
Just as he was thinking this, the voice that was obviously from the archer suddenly laughed and said, "I think there will be seven servants soon."
Cu Chulainn was startled and just as he was about to dodge, he noticed several rays of light appearing around him. In an instant, he found himself surrounded by a strange combination of triangles and circles!
Chapter 87 The Intervention of the Holy Grail
Inside the church, Kotomine Kirei remained calm, as if nothing could surprise him.
Gilgamesh, standing aside, crossed his legs, seemingly uninterested in anything.
After a while, Gilgamesh suddenly stood up and walked outside.
Kotomine Kirei didn't react to this. He knew that the oldest king was bored, so he planned to go out and be a street urchin.
Kotomine Kirei still agreed with this kind of thing. After all, the dog needed to be let out for a few walks so that it wouldn't get bored.
"Next, all we have to do is wait for Cu Chulainn to return and see what information he can bring back." Kotomine Kirei thought, revealing a hint of a smile. "He's truly a delightful fellow. Even though he's displeased with me, he still seems to want to work under me."
Thinking of this, a twisted smile appeared on Kotomine Kirei's face.
However, this little bit of happiness obviously couldn't make him too excited.
But he knew that something that would make him happier would happen soon, and it wouldn't take too long.
Yes, it won't take long before he feels even happier.
"It's been ten years, Rin..." Kotomine Kirei's expression became increasingly distorted. "Strive to participate in the Holy Grail War for your father's ideals, and then quickly discover the truth, find out who killed your father. Then, I can..."
The ultimate pleasure, the emotions that have been accumulated after ten years of waiting, will soon burst out. At that time, he will definitely reach the peak of pleasure!
What's more, this time there is also Emiya Kiritsugu's adopted son, the guy named Emiya Shirou!
"However, if what Emiya Shirou summoned is really the Knight King, then that would be wonderful. If the Knight King can trample the Hero King hard and make all his dreams come to nothing, that would be even more wonderful!"
Ten years ago, it was Gilgamesh who made him discover his inner feelings, that impulse for pleasure, and now, he doesn't mind letting Gilgamesh become a part of his pleasure!
At this moment, he was suddenly stunned. Just a moment ago, he found that the Command Spell in his hand had overheated!
But he did not use the Command Seals, and Servants cannot activate the Command Seals by themselves!
Kotomine Kirei quickly looked at his hand where the Command Seals were hidden, only to discover that the Command Seals on his hand were losing their effect!
The contract between him and Cu Chulainn was breaking, as if something had directly severed the contract between him and Cu Chulainn!
There is generally only one possibility for this situation.
"Cu Chulainn is dead?!" When the servant dies, the contract will naturally lose its effect.
However, this was really hard for Kotomine Kirei to believe.
"How can it be?!"
Kotomine Kirei couldn't help but lose his voice at this moment, and his brain started to work rapidly.
"Wait a minute, the order I gave to Cu Chulainn didn't contain any instructions for a fight to the death. If he finds any problems, he can contact me directly. I can even use the Command Spell to teleport him back instantly! There's no problem at all!
"But now he couldn't say anything and simply vanished. He was killed so quickly that Cu Chulainn couldn't even react. Who did it? Could it be Emiya Shirou's Servant?
"But what Servant could kill Cu Chulainn before he could even react? What kind of super-sized being was summoned?"
Kotomine Kirei quickly filtered through all the legendary heroes he knew, but found no possibility.
"Could it be an assassin? But it was definitely Saber that Emiya Shirou summoned. Or was it that someone else was secretly investigating Emiya Shirou's home, leading to encountering Cu Chulainn who arrived one step ahead, and then secretly attacked and killed him?"
A possibility came to mind, but this possibility was directly overturned by Kotomine Kirei.
"No, it's impossible. Cu Chulainn's strength and combat experience could be taken away by a single blow. He didn't even have time to react. It's really hard to imagine.
"I'd rather believe that it was because of the huge gap in strength that he was killed directly...but..."
After pondering for a moment, Kotomine Kirei muttered to himself the biggest question in his mind.
"What kind of Servant has such powerful strength?"
Perhaps, there is only one answer.
"Could it be that the Servant summoned by Emiya Shirou is not actually a human, but a Phantasmal? For example, a God?
"That's possible, after all. Gilgamesh is a demigod, and many heroes can actually be called demigods. Summoning another god doesn't seem impossible. Even if it's extremely difficult and the probability is extremely low, what if Shirou Emiya just happens to have that chance?"
After thinking about it to this point, the answer he came up with was already outrageous, but instead of being worried, Kotomine Kirei laughed, and his laughter was extremely happy.
"Hahahaha! That's great, it's really great! It turns out that some changes make people more excited!"
Even though he lost his servant, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he began to think of other ways.
"Gilgamesh is a Servant from the previous generation, but he has remained until now. Although the Holy Grail ritual states that the maximum number of Servants that can be summoned is seven, and the Holy Grail War is fought with seven Servants, in reality, this has always been just a rule, and no magician has attempted to summon more Servants...
"The Einzbern family hasn't tried this either. They should be very familiar with the structure of the Holy Grail. After all, the ritual construction of the Holy Grail was carried out by their family. However, they may not be doing this kind of shameless operation because there are hidden dangers..."
Thinking of this hidden danger, Kotomine Kirei smiled, and smiled happily.
"What does hidden danger have to do with me?"
So, he came to the basement of the church and began to set up a new magic circle. He wanted to give it a try to see if he could summon a new servant.
Anyway, even if it fails, there will be no loss. At most, we will need to consider new intervention methods.
As for who to summon this time, he had already thought about it. Of course, he would summon the one who was most worthy of being summoned and who could make him the happiest!
That's Tōsaka Tokiomi!
Using the gift given to him by his former teacher, Tōsaka Tokiomi, as a holy relic, Kotomine Kirei began the summoning ceremony. He hoped so much that this attempt would succeed, but it was obvious that it failed.
The magic circle did not react at all, as if it had no intention of giving any feedback to this holy relic.
Seeing this scene, Kotomine Kirei couldn't help but sigh.
"What a shame. The touching father-daughter meeting scene is gone. I was planning to let him be himself in front of Rin."
Saying extremely bad words, Kotomine Kirei tried again, and this time, the magic circle reacted.
"I can actually continue to summon."
Kotomine Kirei said this with some surprise, intending to see who he would summon. This time there were no relics, so the summoning would most likely be random, but there was also a possibility that a spearman would be summoned.
After all, the position of spearman is now vacant.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt a pain in his hand, and then he discovered something strange. The Command Seals in his hand began to increase crazily. The original three Command Seals increased to twenty-one at this moment at an extremely fast speed!
