Chapter 263 The Holy Grail

Under the sun, the father and son (mother and daughter?) with beautiful faces bathed in holy light stood quietly.

Altria looked at Mordred in front of her, her eyes full of tenderness, without the previous disgust and anger. In the battle just now, she had a deep understanding of everything in Mordred's short nine years of life.

After all, he is just a child

This is what our Knight King thought subconsciously, with a feeling of overflowing maternal love.

It's a pity that King Arthur's inability to move people's hearts is a fixed setting, so this kind of words that are obviously thought of by emotional thinking are completely impossible in the eyes of others.

This is why after saying the previous sentence, Altria just stared at Mordred silently without continuing to speak.

But for Mordred, such a look is enough, because she has never seen her own reflection in her father's eyes before!

It seems that there is only you in front of her now?

Ahem, I've gone off topic. Zhao Chen, who sensed the birth of the Holy Grail, directly took Weber and inserted himself into the harmonious atmosphere between the father and son (mother and daughter?).

"The Holy Grail has descended. Don't you two plan to go and watch?"

Zhao Chen did not show any embarrassment for interrupting the beautiful scene. Instead, he placed his two claws on their shoulders.

With the consumption of a command spell and some energy, Altria and Mordred instantly recovered all their magic and physical strength.

Enough energy to fight for more than ten hours!

"Go! Of course I will go, I want more"

Having recovered all his strength and hearing this news, Mordred instantly became excited.

But she stopped before she finished speaking, and then looked at her father.

After a slight hesitation, Mordred changed the subject: "The Holy Grail can only fulfill one wish, right? Let my father make a wish!"

After that, she continued to stare at Altria with extremely admiring eyes, enjoying the tenderness in her eyes.

"I lost the last battle, so you should be the one who gets the Holy Grail in the end, Sir Mordred." Altria smiled and reached out to touch Mordred's head.

Now Mordred blushed again, his eyes turned into circles, and he kept mumbling something.

"We can talk about making wishes later, now we have to do something important!" Zhao Chen pointed to the direction where the Holy Grail appeared and said.

Extending their perception ability along that direction, Mordred and Altria's faces changed. They had never felt such a malicious power, as if it contained all the "evil" in the world!

"Master, are you saying that this extremely evil power is caused by the Holy Grail?"

Mordred's face was full of doubts. She had never heard that a wish that could fulfill a wish could produce such malicious magic. These were two completely opposite things!

Altria also nodded, agreeing with her son's opinion: "Although I have never seen the Holy Grail, I think the Holy Grail can never be compared with such magic."

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Although this sentence may not be completely correct, it is true in most cases, so let's go and see it together."

The moment the voice fell, the four people standing in the ruins disappeared at the same time.

When the scene in front of them was clearly presented in front of them, what everyone saw was the black mud that kept rolling in waves. Whether it was the ground, walls or ceiling, it was covered with black mud at this moment.

The malicious magic was emitted from this black mud, and in the black mud, there were three very obvious protrusions, as if something was covered by this black mud.

Seeing this scene, Mordred's face was full of disgust: "What are these things? They are so disgusting, as if countless people are emitting malice towards us!"

Compared to this, Artoria paid more attention to the rounder and largest of the three protrusions, because she could sense two connections from it, one from the master, and the other from the treasure she once lost.

The scabbard of the holy sword Oath of Victory, the strongest defensive treasure named [Avalon]!

Due to her position, Artoria had to swing the sword and use the wind of the sword to scrape away the black mud covering Emiya Kiritsugu, and by the way, the current situation inside was revealed.

The semicircular light shield firmly protected Emiya Kiritsugu below, but he himself fell into a coma, and frowned, wondering if he saw something in his dream.

And above his body, the scabbard floated in the air, and the light it emitted maintained the light shield, preventing the black mud from invading it.

The main body is made of golden metal, with striking blue enamel inlaid on the outside as decoration, and in the middle there is a long-lost fairy text. The combination of the three makes it appear incomparable mysterious at first glance.

"This is [Avalon]!" Mordred exclaimed after seeing the true appearance of the scabbard, and then thought, "No wonder I can summon my father, it turns out that [Avalon] is used as a holy relic."

"Is that the Holy Grail?" At this time, Waver, who had been paying attention to the surroundings, pointed to the cup-shaped object in the sky and asked.

This voice also attracted the attention of others.

"In terms of appearance, it does look a lot like the Holy Grail, but the magic power difference is too big. The magic power of the Holy Grail as a wishing machine is actually so evil!"

Mordred gave him a questioning look, and his words contained a lot of inner disgust.

Seeing this, Zhao Chen, the little popular science expert, coughed twice and started the process of popularizing science in collusion with the system: "This is indeed the Holy Grail, but it is a small Holy Grail. It is used to stabilize the magic power between the 'Great Holy Grail' and the present world. The necessary equipment for the achievement of the third magic of passage.”

Looking at the audience waiting for further explanation, Zhao Chen continued: "Actually, the real purpose of the Holy Grail War is not the so-called wish fulfillment, or the wish fulfillment is just a by-product."

"A side product?!" Everyone was surprised.

"As for the ultimate goal, it is to go to the [source]!"

Hearing this, Weber looked at the Little Holy Grail in the sky with great excitement, and told about the magician's highest pursuit: "[The Root], that is the destination of all magicians, and is considered to exist outside the world." The beginning and end of all things, the seat of God that records everything in this world and makes everything in this world!”

Zhao Chen took over the topic and continued: "During the Holy Grail War, through the process of injecting the souls of the six dead Servants into the Small Holy Grail, they used their power to return to the [Seat of Heroes] located outside the world to pierce the world. And use the huge magic power accumulated in the Great Holy Grail to fix this hole, thereby creating a door to the outside world."

"The above is the purpose of the birth of the Holy Grail War system. In other words, the Holy Grail cannot actually fulfill any wishes. Even if it can, it can only be realized by relying on the magic power that bursts out in an instant. But [Rider]'s wish is Within the scope of realization, because the third method [soul materialization] is in line with his wishes. "

"One more thing, regarding the current Holy Grail, I think it's better not to touch it. After all, the evil in this world is not a fun thing for you. Oh, the evil in this world is just like this, Such and such" (6,000 words omitted)

After speaking these popular science words, Zhao Chen handed over the choice to Artoria and Mordred.

"What happens next is up to you. Is your wish fulfilled or something like that?"

"Needless to say, of course we need to use the Holy Grail to open the [source]!"

The voice coming out of the black mud was Tokiomi Tosaka, the scapegoat who had a very weak presence in this Holy Grail War.
