Zongman: Evolution Paradise

"In this world, the areas outside of Fuyuki City were already destroyed?"

Jolyne sighed and asked.

Red A nodded in agreement.

"That's right. When the wish was made ten years ago, the Clock Tower, the Magician, or any other being disappeared. Perhaps this world has been abandoned."

"The inferno that consumed everything ignited across the world, bringing the mystery of this timeline to the final city of Fuyuki... The only solution that Kiritsugu Emiya and I could think of was to insert the Black Grail into my younger self... Then Kiritsugu Emiya and I risked entering the Grail to try and influence its power..."

"Fortunately, it was a success. Under the mystery of the Black Grail, Kiritsugu Emiya also became a Heroic Spirit. Together with Kiritsugu Emiya and Shirou Emiya, who was the host of the Black Grail, we influenced the power of the Black Grail."

"Right now, the only normal thing in this world is this manipulated Fuyuki City."

"The sky outside is nothing more than an illusion influenced by the Black Grail."

……

Having explained everything, the worldview of this timeline is now completely clear.

Influenced by some unknown player, Archer chose to be summoned by Kiritsugu Emiya as a Saber and appeared in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

Then the two defeated the other six Master combinations in the Fourth Holy Grail, obtained the Black Grail, and put Jeanne d'Arc, who appeared as Ruler, into the Black Grail.

Emiya Kiritsugu and Archer, who thought the Holy Grail had returned to normal, made a wish to "make the world a more relaxed and everyday place." However, the Holy Grail turned evil once again, and its power inexplicably increased significantly.

All beings in this timeline departed, and the Black Grail burned the world in flames, bringing back the mysteries from all corners of the world to the last remaining city, Fuyuki.

The mysterious Black Grail that stores this timeline was inserted into the body of young Shirou Emiya by Archer (Red A) and Kiritsugu Emiya, and then they too entered the Grail.

Finally, through some means, Fuyuki City became the only remaining residence on this world line.

Perhaps at this moment, Archer also returned the scabbard to Saber.

When players are summoned to the amusement park, what they see is Fuyuki City, which is otherwise perfectly normal except for the ban on magic.

With his seven Heroic Spirits by his side, Shirou Emiya became the referee in the eyes of Paradise.

……

"So, you sent Kiritsugu Emiya to another world, right?"

Red A really understands the players; he already knows that this intelligence is what the players need.

In the beginning and end of his contribution to this world, he also asked the question he most wanted to know.

Although she wanted to repeat "Why should I tell you?" again, considering her image, Jolyne politely gave her answer.

"Yes, Kiritsugu Emiya is in another world now."

When Jolyne gave a clear answer, Archer's body began to tremble, and Shirou Emiya, who was sitting in a wheelchair, also showed a hint of malice on his face.

"You can keep that world open indefinitely, and even let others come and go as they please, right?"

A new problem has emerged from Red A's teeth.

The air fell silent for no apparent reason, because everyone knew what Red A really wanted.

Without answering him, Jolyne conjured a phantom crab from the surrounding space.

Through the phantom of the soul, one can also see the crab roe hidden inside.

"I guess you're going to tell me now that you desperately need this help from outside the world."

"I guess you're going to tell me that you're about to lose control of the Black Grail."

"I bet you'll also say that the lives of everyone in Fuyuki City are in my hands."

Jolyne released the crab back into the wild, her eyes meeting those of Archer.

"The last world I experienced was called Demon Slayer. There was a child in it who predicted that I would become a savior, and I did indeed become one. So now, Archer, do you think I'll agree to your idea?"

Archer changed after discovering that Jolyne had transported Kiritsugu Emiya to another world.

It's like stepping into dog poop on your way out, wiping the disgusting stains away in the roadside greenery, then suddenly seeing a lottery shop next door, thinking about how lucky you are, subconsciously buying a lottery ticket and discovering you've won 100,000 yuan.

Archer's attitude towards Jolyne changed from disgust to a racing heart.

As early as when Shirou Emiya said he would kick out the extra Hundred Faces Hassan in order to ensure the stability of the Black Grail, it was already proven that the three main characters, Shirou Emiya, Kiritsugu Emiya, and Archer, could not completely control the Black Grail.

Or rather, ten years from the Fourth World War to now, at this particular juncture, they are already losing control.

At this point, Jolyne, who can freely enter and exit other worlds, arrives. What will Archer do?

"I don't need to guess."

A spiral-shaped sword appeared in Red Archer's hand; he was now a Saber, not the Archer as usual.

"All I need to do is put you into the Holy Grail and use the Holy Grail to control your body to save the world."

Aiming at Jolyne, Archer's eyes turned completely into the red and black of molten iron.

Chapter 247, Act Two Begins

Leaving aside the feasibility of taking everyone from Fuyuki City out of this world, from the very beginning, this matter could not have been carried out peacefully.

One reason for this might be that this isn't the world of idol dramas.

The world of idol dramas.

Jolyne was riding an old man's bicycle across a red light when Red A, who was sitting in a luxury car, saw her.

Red A glanced at it and exclaimed, "Hey!"

This young man is a good one; we can entrust the life and death of everyone in Fuyuki City to him with peace of mind.

The real world.

Jolyne was helping an elderly woman cross the street when Red A, who was sitting in a luxury car, happened to see her.

Red A glanced at it and thought, "Hmm?"

This old lady is probably in cahoots with this guy. What if she pulls out an RPG from her bag and attacks me later?

Prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain, and neither Jolyne nor Red Archer had the idea of ​​moving the mountain.

To Red A, the guys in Paradise are nothing more than hyenas chasing profits.

These hyenas will bully the weak without hesitation, unite to show off their power when they encounter a strong enemy, and scatter and flee when they sense danger.

He wouldn't trust Jolyne from Paradise, much less believe that Jolyne would accept the responsibility of saving everyone in Fuyuki City without asking for anything in return.

So when Red A asked if people could freely enter and leave the workshop, no one answered him.

Because the answer is no longer important.

The focus at this moment is on the unequal strength.

Even if Kiritsugu Emiya has been defeated, so what? There are still six Servants under the control of the Black Grail, with endless magical power surging within them. Archer has never felt that he is the weaker party.

Therefore, Archer (Red A) will now prioritize putting Jolyne into the Holy Grail, so that he can take on the responsibility of saving everyone in Fuyuki City!

"Rest in peace!"

With the Black Grail and Saber's class buff, the [Pseudo-Spiral Sword], which instantly unleashed A++ power, shone in Archer's hand and was hurled towards Jolyne, thus beginning the second act of the stage play!

Because of his own legend, Archer (Red Archer) does not have a specific Noble Phantasm; instead, he possesses a Reality Marble called [Unlimited Blade Works].

His projection magic allows him to project the vast majority of sword-type magical artifacts from history.

The prototype of this spiral sword is the "Caladboga", the famous sword of Fergus Mark Roy, a hero in the Celtic myth of Ulster.

The A++ level that is being released now is a level that doubles or even triples the power of an A-level anti-army Noble Phantasm!

"Saber, come here."

Needless to say, only Saber's Excalibur, which is also at an A++ level, can block an attack of this caliber.

Saber landed firmly on the ground, and within a single breath, a surge of powerful golden magic began to flow, unleashing her Noble Phantasm.

"Excalibur!"

With a roar, the holy sword unleashed a beam of light!

Red and golden magic exploded in the center of the battlefield, and the full-force clash of the two A++ Noble Phantasms caused instability in the space of the Reality Barrier!

The strong wind whipped up sand that hit her skin with a chalk-like impact. Yukino Yukinoshita coughed a few times, thankfully she wasn't wearing a skirt today.

"Lord Jolyne, how should we fight?"

Knowing that a fight was inevitable, Yukino Yukinoshita estimated the amount of magic she could provide to Saber. Although she had dealt with the troublesome Assassin, she was still somewhat troubled by the remaining six enemies.

"Clearly, Caster and Berserker are now in your hands."

Jolyne gazed at the battlefield and spoke casually.

As for the reason?

Saber's unleashing of her beam attack had already attracted the attention of the opposing side, especially Lancelot as a Berserker and Gilles de Rais as a Caster.

"Arthur!"

Lancelot muttered to himself, his face hidden beneath his armor, which, after being influenced by the Black Grail, gave off a viscous texture.

Meanwhile, Gilles de Rais, with tears of blood streaming down his face, cried out, "Joan of Arc! My saint!"

His true identity is a French marshal, and the only person he truly values ​​is Joan of Arc, the Crimson Saint.

Joan of Arc and Saber look exactly alike.

Influenced by the Black Grail, Gilles de Rais naturally mistook Saber for Jeanne d'Arc.

"Lord Lancelot, I will help you free yourself from your shackles."

Knowing that Lancelot no longer possessed self-awareness, Saber had no intention of reminiscing with this strongest Knight of the Round Table. She drew her sword and charged towards Lancelot and Gilles de Rais.

-

"Jolyne, is this what you meant by Fate being full of Jolyne fans? Is this guy a fake fan? Why did he call Saber by the wrong name?!"

Yukino Yukinoshita felt a strong urge to make a sarcastic remark when she saw Gilles de Rais, with his frog-like eyes and seemingly deformed body, shouting "Jeanne d'Arc" at Saber with all his might.

"Don't worry about it. Saber shouldn't be able to kill them both. Just stabilize the situation and wait for my Medusa to arrive."

As Jolyne spoke, Diarmuid, the spearman opposite, broke through the magical barrier and charged forward.

Esdeath was the one who went up to her; she could no longer contain her urge to attack.

Sparks flew as the rapier and the spear tip clashed several times in a mere second.

"Die!"

Under the protection of the [Noble Chariot], Diarmuid was unable to pose any threat to Esdeath.

Esdeath was just about to unleash a close-range ice blast when she received Jolyne's voice in the team's communication system.

"No, Esdeath, your opponent is not a spearman."

Jolyne stared intently at Gilgamesh, who stood silently beside Archer Queen, as the portal to the Palace of the Kings began to appear in the sky.

“Esdeath, this enemy, I think only you can do it.”

Jolyne spoke seriously, causing Esdeath's face to flush red. She kicked Diarmuid away, her rapier carving icy tracks on the ground as she walked straight toward Gilgamesh.

"Of course, I am the strongest trump card in Master's hands."

Chapter 248 Fusion and Sublimation

In the original storyline, when Gilgamesh came into contact with the black mud in the Black Grail, he not only did not become a controlled puppet, but instead gained a physical body.

Now, Gilgamesh, standing next to Red A, no longer shows any sign of intelligence.

The reason might be this completely different Holy Grail, or it might be something done by Archer and Kiritsugu Emiya.

Jolyne believed the latter more, because Lancelot and Gilles de Rais showed some reaction after seeing Saber, while Gilgamesh, as the King of Heroes, seemed more like a bot.

To ensure the stability of the Black Grail, Archer and Kiritsugu Emiya must have completely erased the rationality of the other five Servants, turning them into puppets with only instincts remaining.

Kiritsugu Emiya was sent to the Infinite Castle.

Lancelot and Gilles de Rais were temporarily handed over to Saber to keep them in check.
