Nobody knows how to be a villain better than me.

Hartress used her many magical eyes to observe and reveal the workings of the Fuyuki Grand Grail, as well as the possibility of its descent.

Regarding Marisbury's idea of ​​building Chaldea, Hartres once commented:

To observe the past, a reverse summoning technique known as pseudo-spiritual transfer can theoretically achieve time travel. However, to ensure the stability of time travel, at least the full assistance of the Atlas Institute, clock tower monarch-level secret techniques, new facilities, experiments, astronomical costs, and individuals with the potential for time travel are required.

If the above conditions cannot be met, the theories of astrophysics and Marisbury's plans will remain mere empty talk.

Ultimately, based on Hartles' investigation, Maris Billy decided to spend a great deal of time and money to take over Kenneth's position as Master, summon Caster Solomon, and travel to Fuyuki City to participate in the Holy Grail War, taking a gamble.

Afterwards, Marisbury, who returned from Fuyuki City, received substantial financial and human resources support, which he then invested in the construction of Chaldea.

It can be said that the establishment of Chaldea owes a debt to this former minister, Hatres.

In fact, in the early stages of building Chaldea, Marisbury extended an olive branch to Hatteres, hoping that his partner would come to Chaldea to take up a position.

However, due to differences in their philosophies, the two eventually parted ways, ending their honeymoon period prematurely.

However, every cloud has a silver lining.

Although he ended his collaboration with Maris Billy, he encountered another, even more interesting, fellow traveler.

Hallest glanced at Professor Rafe in the shadows, smiled and waved, his gaze meaningful.

"Let's forget about it. That monarch can't give us the prosperity we want. It's been a pleasure cooperating..."

"hope so."

Rafe glanced at Hallest, offering no comment.

Harrest remained unperturbed by Professor Rafe's coldness, maintaining his composure as he looked up at the city bathed in red light.

"So, according to the [Revelation], the knot of a planet's [prosperity] and [death] is buried here?"

"It was just a vague omen."

Rafe shook his head, his gaze falling on the red light falling from the sky, and the lines between his brows deepened.

"The Holy Grail, the military, the indigenous people, and all sorts of unknown forces behind it... there are too many interfering factors, and I can't guarantee what the outcome will be."

"It doesn't matter."

Hallest smiled faintly and strolled leisurely toward the edge of the rooftop.

"Since we're already here and can't leave for the time being, let's enjoy this performance. What that monarch can do, perhaps we can do too."

As the magician crossed the edge and fell downwards, a dense barrage of lightning struck from the dark clouds.

"Boom!"

A woman clad in armor, enveloped in a streak of purplish-red light, darted forward and caught her Master steadily.

Those were two chariots pulled by purple lightning. Not modern weapons. They were ancient symbols of ravages, drawn by horses or other creatures, galloping across the battlefield.

No wonder.

Because what was pulling the chariot were two skeletons. Although only skeletons were visible, it was clear that they were small dragons with strong wings. The skeletal dragons, lacking forelegs, were a mythical species called the wyvern, which had gone extinct long ago.

"Let's go, we should find a place to sit before the show starts."

Harrest, atop his chariot, raised his hand to his chest, bowed slightly, and extended an invitation with a smile to his new partner.

Rafe nodded slightly, but did not get into the car. He tapped his cane on the ground, and a ripple spread out. His figure disappeared into a floating pattern of light.

"Master, do you need me to take care of this rude guy?"

The woman driving the chariot placed one hand on the longsword at her waist, drew out half an inch of dark red blade, and looked at the disappearing light pattern with an unfriendly expression.

“It’s okay, Faker. The world is changing too fast. The professor is just caught in a cycle of self-contradiction and hasn’t gotten out of it yet. I can understand that kind of pain.”

Hallest shook his head, waving forward with his smile undiminished.

"As allies, we can't just abandon them at this time."

"Do whatever you want. Just don't forget what you promised me."

The woman rolled her eyes at her master, whose temper was infuriatingly good, and sheathed her longsword again.

She truly didn't understand men's feelings or their fantasies.

That was true before, and it is true now...

The woman gently patted the two flying dragons that were driving the carriage, her heterochromatic eyes filled with a complex mix of emotions, a hint of wistfulness and nostalgia, before she abruptly pulled on the reins.

"Boom!"

A fierce purple lightning bolt ripped through the dark red sky, carving out two domineering tracks that drove into the gradually spreading night.

Meanwhile, in the alleys of Xueyuan City.

"A sneeze, a sneeze!"

A traveler carrying a backpack, with long black hair, heavy dark circles under his eyes, and an ethereal air, rubbed his itchy nose, his gaze sweeping over the strange phenomena around him before settling on the tall figure in front of him, his tone somewhat anxious.

"Are you done yet, you rascal?"

"Haha, don't rush, of course we have to carefully select the spoils!"

The burly, red-bearded man, having selected local specialties from a stall, turned around with a hearty smile and stuffed the miscellaneous items into the large backpack of the black-haired traveler.

"You guy..."

"Buzz!"

Just as the young man with the backpack was about to complain with a dark expression, two blue and white beams of light tore through the dark red sky and projected onto the closed city, shining brightly together.

In an instant, figures in the wilderness, the desert, the cave, and the high-rise building all raised their eyes and focused their gaze on the sky.

Chapter Fifty-Nine: Teammates Sacrificed to Heaven, Boundless Magic Power

Meanwhile, ten thousand meters above Xueyuan City, dark clouds gathered, and branching lightning flashed and struck continuously.

At this moment, Samael listened to the whistling wind rushing into his ears, looked down at the sky thousands of meters above his feet, and his face was full of black lines.

Damn it, those idiots from Chaldea!

Setting the teleportation point in the air?! Isn't that a rip-off?!

"Armoring complete, senior. Please prepare for landing!"

Realizing the harsh environment, Mash chose to immediately transform into a Heroic Spirit. She channeled her magical energy, summoned a large cross shield, and gestured to her Master beside her, offering a deep reminder.

Samael decisively gripped Mashu's wrist, adjusting his landing posture as he silently vowed:

When I get back, I'm going to dock all their salaries for this month!

However, considering that they were able to transfer Fujimaru Tachibana's spirit to ten thousand years ago in their first experiment, allowing this unfortunate child to live a primitive life for nearly ten thousand years, one can understand just how problematic this spirit transfer system was before it matured.

Oh, by the way, where are they?

"what!!!"

Just as Samael was pondering this, a terrified scream from a woman, louder than the thunder and howling wind, exploded in their ears.

Following the sound, a figure appeared, slender and tall, but not of normal human form. Their skin felt like organic velvet, moist yet cool and dry. Their hair, modeled after long strips of rainbow film photographs, appeared transparent.

Meanwhile, a bundle of paper-like objects adorned the back of her head on her metallic hairband, and her uniquely charming face, with its silvery eyes, gazed around blankly and bewilderedly, as if lost in contemplation of life's three great philosophical questions:

who am I?

where am I?

What am I going to do?

Samael looked up and touched his forehead as he gazed at the strangely shaped yet strangely familiar figure a hundred meters away.

Why did she leave early?!

Clearly, the extraterrestrial visitor before them was Olga Marie after her transformation.

Having been thoroughly betrayed by his own father, the former director was clearly in a state of amnesia, completely unaware of why he woke up in this state and why he was freefalling thousands of miles in the sky.

Furthermore, being unfamiliar with this strange body, Olga Marie, with nowhere to gain leverage in mid-air, flailed her arms and legs wildly, like a humanoid crab waving its limbs haphazardly.

Finally, the alien witch, who was grabbing at things haphazardly, found a lifeline nearby and instinctively clung to it like a koala.

In an instant, Fujimaru Tachibana, another Master who was trying to adjust his posture and use magic to cushion the fall, was pulled down by his own Servant and joined the screaming and freefalling.

Samael couldn't help but twitch his lips, raising his hand to cover his eyes, unable to look directly at the Chaos Evil and the Alien God.

I wonder if that alien god will be so ashamed and angry that he will commit suicide after he takes a dump and learns about this dark history?

As his eardrums were assaulted by a series of high-pitched screams, Samael could no longer bear it. His face darkened, and he turned around and roared.

"Quiet! Don't move!"

At the same time, surging magic wove into a pair of jet-black wings behind him, brushing aside the chaotic high-speed particle streams around him and pulling them closer.

Seeing this, Fujimaru Tachibana and Olga Marie, who were in a flustered state on the other side, were overjoyed.

"Buzz!"

However, just as Samael was about to meet up with the two opposite him, a violent tremor came from the sky. The ethereal energy gathered into a colorful vortex, constantly swirling and sucking, like a nebula expanding continuously, transforming the surroundings into a vacuum-like cosmic environment.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, a burst of light, like a solar flare, suddenly exploded. An excessive stream of particles, swept up by the surging ether, accelerated and jetted out, violently rubbing against the air to create a magnificent spectacle resembling a supernova explosion—a scene of apocalyptic grandeur.

flash!

Sensing the unusual gathering of magic around them, Samael instinctively grabbed Mash beside him and dodged a cosmic ray that struck down from the nebula vortex above.

At this moment, Fujimaru Tachibana and Olga Marie, belatedly realizing what was happening, also raised their heads, staring blankly at the rapidly expanding halo in their field of vision.

"Boom!"

The rapidly falling, colorful band of light suddenly exploded, and amidst the crackling of electricity, two humanoid objects emitting wisps of blue smoke plummeted headfirst from the churning clouds.

In the blink of an eye, Samael wanted to reach out for help, but it was already too late.

Worse still, the nebula gathering in the sky continued to expand, with streams of high-energy particles shooting out in all directions, temporarily isolating Samael from the other side.

"..."

Seeing his two teammates who almost died before even making their appearance, Samael twitched at the corners of his mouth as he weaved through the lightning and high-energy particle streams, looking utterly speechless.

Although he had always thought he had offended Lady Luck somehow and that his luck was terrible, he finally understood what true misfortune meant after seeing it today.

Fortunately, at the last moment before the halo exploded, he saw that the sleeping alien god seemed to have taken a dump.

With her there, this level of injury shouldn't be fatal.

Samael's thoughts raced, and he felt a little relieved. He led Mashu through the gaps in the high-energy particle stream, intending to track the location where Fujimaru Tachibana and Olga Marie had fallen and go to check on the situation.

The location seems to be in the desert area to the south?

"Whizzing!"

But then, a muffled whooshing sound came from the sea of ​​stars above the clouds. Two unidentified objects, gleaming with metallic luster, billowing thick smoke and trailing long fiery tails, plummeted toward the vast valley to the north of Snowfield City and the dense black forest to the west, creating violent explosions and flashes of light.

Like two meteors that drifted from the universe and landed on the Earth's surface.

UFO?

Samael was stunned as he watched the towering flames rising from the great valley to the north and the forest to the west.

Soon, he had a sudden realization, and it dawned on him.

Extraterrestrial life forms!

As the name surfaced in his mind, his gaze sharpened and his pupils contracted sharply.

If that's the case, it might explain why Snowfield City, where a counterfeit Holy Grail War was held, suddenly became a singularity that shook the foundations of humanity!

After a moment's thought, Samael made a decisive decision, grabbing Mashu without hesitation and resolutely changing direction, landing towards the Great Valley to the north.

"boom!"

A few breaths later, the two rescuers successfully landed.

However, due to interference from the high-energy particle stream, their orientation was slightly off, and their landing site was about one kilometer away from the explosion point.

As soon as she landed, Mash couldn't wait to put down her shield and try to contact Chaldea to get technical support from headquarters, so as to demonstrate her value.

However, after several attempts, the surface of the shield, which was inscribed with the spirit communication technique, remained dark.

The junior student lowered her head in frustration, feeling utterly defeated.
