Genshin Impact, but the chat group

"How on earth did a scoundrel like you obtain such power?!"

"That's beyond your knowledge."

【Kiritsugu】dodged Gilgamesh's attacks while replying with an arrogant expression.

"Because the weak are not worthy to know my strength."

Such taunts enraged Gilgamesh on the spot.

He didn't care anymore. Even if he lost his right hand, he would use his strongest power to kill the bastard in front of him!

Gilgamesh controlled the spaceship to rise into the sky, and then stretched out his left hand forward from above.

Crimson magic gathered in the sky, and a huge sword hilt appeared in his hand, slowly being pulled from the void as he moved.

That was Gilgamesh's strongest offensive Noble Phantasm, Ea.

It is said to be the strongest sword capable of cutting through the world!

Although he only has his left hand, the King can still wield the Ea sword even with only his left hand, which is fundamentally different from someone who can't wield a sword at full power after injuring their left hand! Because he is the King of Heroes!

The red, cylindrical blade of the sword was fully revealed as Gilgamesh drew his sword.

"Although you are fast, you are a mongrel. No matter how fast you are, you cannot dodge this attack!"

Gilgamesh raised his left hand high, ready to destroy the entire Ryudoji Temple complex!

As for the fact that such a commotion would be too great and would affect ordinary people, Gilgamesh no longer cared about that. He wanted to kill the person who had humiliated him!

"What a shame."

【Kiritsugu】Looking at Gilgamesh high in the sky, he said these words, and then his whole body turned into ashes and disappeared.

"Huh!? Pfft—"

Gilgamesh's eyes widened, and then he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

His chest was completely pierced by an arm, and the very tip of that arm was still clutching his heart.

"why?"

The arm retracted, taking Gilgamesh's heart with it.

But Gilgamesh did not collapse; he clutched the huge hole in his chest.

"Tch, a mere fatal wound!"

After uttering these words, Gilgamesh's head was also severed.

"You should all die, shouldn't you?"

[Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu] appeared beside Gilgamesh's fallen body, looked at Gilgamesh's corpse, and nodded in satisfaction.

225. Aizen, who is about to become the new Soul King

In just over ten minutes.

Li Yue has already defeated Rider, Lancer, and Archer. Including Caster, who was defeated by Archer, the Holy Grail War has now progressed to the point where only the three Riders remain.

Of the remaining four riders, Li Yue controls Berserker, Saber is in the hands of Kiritsugu Emiya, and Assassin remains hidden in the shadows.

However, after witnessing the entire battle, the Assassins are now completely too afraid to come out. They have only one thought now: to find the Master of the Servant Kiritsugu and assassinate him. Does such a Servant really exist? This guy is simply impossible to defeat.

Lancer is one thing, but monsters like Rider and Archer were defeated. These are simply opponents they couldn't possibly fight!

The only thing they can do now is to find the other's master as soon as possible and then eliminate the other's existence at its root.

They couldn't think of any other way to win besides this method.

They also told Kirei Kotomine about the situation on the ground and the way they had come up with to win, and Kirei Kotomine also felt that only such a plan could win the Holy Grail War.

With Tokiomi Tohsaka having lost his Archer, their hopes of winning the Holy Grail War now rest entirely on his Assassin.

However, to this day, they still haven't found any information about the master of [Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu].

All I can say is that the hope is extremely slim.

Kiritsugu Emiya also felt his hopes were slim.

After relaying the news that Kiritsugu had obtained the Greater Grail, he returned to the foot of Mount Enenzo and secretly kept an eye on the direction of Ryudouji Temple. With his mastery of modern technology, he knew how to use modern technology for observation, such as cameras and telescopes.

Then, although he did not witness the entire battle, he learned that the three Servants were killed one after another by [Heroic Spirit Kiritsugu].

What kind of monster is this?

He didn't even send Berserker into battle; he killed all three Servants by himself, and even Archer, a monster with countless Noble Phantasms, was easily killed.

Can Saber really defeat such an enemy?

Unless Saber uses her Noble Phantasm to deliver a fatal blow from a distance without the other party's knowledge!

However, if the Noble Phantasm is used in that way, will Irisviel and Hisau Maiya be affected?

To summon the Holy Grail, Irisviel must be sacrificed. He was prepared for this from the beginning. Bringing Irisviel to Fuyuki was essentially sending her to her death. But what about Hisau Maiya?

Must we sacrifice even Hisayu Maiya for our ultimate ideal, for the sake of obtaining the Holy Grail?

Looking at the Command Seal on the back of his hand that could force Saber to unleash her Noble Phantasm, Kiritsugu Emiya was caught in a dilemma.

While Kiritsugu Emiya was struggling with his decision, Li Yue had already arrived deep within Mount Enzo.

"Godfather, how's the research going?"

At the location of the Greater Grail, a magical energy gathering point that resembles a volcano, Aizen, dressed in a white robe from Las Noches, is bending over to study it.

Hearing Li Yue's voice behind him, Aizen turned his head to look.

"Li Yuejun, is your game over?"

"Not yet, but four Servants have already been dealt with. The Grail within Irisviel has accepted the souls of these four Servants. Next, she should gradually become unable to move because the Grail within her has absorbed too many souls."

"Then you will separate the Lesser Grail from her body, right?"

Aizen was trying to guess what Li Yue was going to do.

“That’s right. I will bring the Lesser Grail here and then summon the Greater Grail so that evil may descend upon this world.”

Li Yue smiled and nodded.

"Godfather, you must be very interested in the evils of this world."

"Hmm, very interesting. It represents the concept of evil in the world. If there really is such a huge amount of evil, it would be excellent research material."

"But that's clearly impossible."

Li Yue shrugged.

"This kind of thing cannot be the evil of the whole world. If it were truly the evil of the whole world, it would have reached the level of a concept, and it would not have caused such a small amount of damage."

In the original storyline, Kiritsugu Emiya had Saber use her Noble Phantasm to destroy the Holy Grail. As a result, the Lesser Grail was indeed destroyed, but the black sludge inside the Grail also came out.

The black mud, carrying the malice of the whole world, only burned a few blocks in Fuyuki City and that was it. Moreover, Kirei Kotomine did not die, and Gilgamesh even obtained a physical body.

All I can say is that the evil in this world is nothing more than this.

"That is indeed the case."

Aizen agreed with Li Yue's statement.

"But I still want to study it and see."

"Of course, this was originally prepared for you, Godfather."

Li Yue wouldn't do anything like trying to make black mud himself, but researching such things is Aizen's specialty, so he could do it!

"Besides that, I've also figured out the principles behind the Greater Grail."

"Oh? Has Godfather figured it out already?"

Li Yue's eyes lit up.

"That's right. This so-called Holy Grail that can grant wishes can be said to be using the rules of this world to some extent. Magic is a special phenomenon formed by deceiving the world, and what the Greater Grail wants to do is to use even greater power to deceive the world, thereby achieving the effect of changing the world on a large scale. This is what is called granting wishes. And one of its main abilities is to materialize the souls of the people in this world."

When the topic turned to the materialization of the soul, Aizen smiled.

"This so-called soul materialization is the connection between a person's soul and the essence of this world. Just as the Greater Grail provides magic that allows Servants to exist in physical form, once a person's soul is connected to the world, it can directly use the world's power to materialize, which is equivalent to having unlimited energy."

"This reminds me of Minecraft. Everything in Minecraft is based on spirit particles. If the Greater Grail ritual were used in Minecraft and modified into a spirit particle version, then I could directly connect with the world through this ritual. Li Yuejun, do you know what this means?"

"If you can do that, in a sense, you will have already become the Spirit King!"

Li Yue's eyes lit up as well.

"That's right, because I can draw spiritual particles from the world indefinitely. In my world, which is made up of spiritual particles, only Quincy can control the world's spiritual particles, but their control is also limited. As someone connected to the world, my ability to control spiritual particles will be limitless!"

A satisfied smile appeared on Aizen's face.

"When that time comes, I won't need to storm the Spirit King's Palace to deal with the sealed puppet; I will become a new Spirit King!"

226. The Last to Arrive: Emiya Kiritsugu

By using the Greater Grail's techniques, one can connect to the world, thereby gaining unlimited access to its resources and ultimately becoming the Soul King.

Aizen's idea gave Li Yue some ideas as well.

What if this technique were applied to Teyvat, allowing Li Yue to connect to the continent? For example, could it allow Li Yue to connect to the World Tree and directly gain access to it?

However, Li Yue quickly abandoned this idea. Once Li Yue truly integrated into the World Tree, he would become a local of Teyvat, which would not be an improvement but rather a deterioration.

Because once you become a Teyvat native, you will be bound by various Teyvat rules, and Li Yue does not want to be bound by these rules. As a result, although he can use elemental power, he essentially consumes spiritual pressure rather than elemental power. The elemental power he uses is just converted elemental power.

After chatting with Aizen for a while, Li Yue left the Greater Grail cave and returned to Ryudouji Temple.

Despite being bombarded by Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon, the miraculously Ryudo-ji Temple remained completely unharmed, with not a single tremor in the floor tiles.

In this magical scene, Li Yue found Irisviel and Hisayu Maiya who had returned.

Previously, because of the battle with the Servant, Li Yue had Irisviel and Hisa Umi temporarily hide in the back mountain, and Li Yue ordered the Berserker to follow and protect them.

Although Berserker has gone mad, as a Knight of the Yangtze River, he retains his instinct to protect beautiful women even in his madness.

Now that the battle is over, Berserker has brought them back.

Even without Saber's presence, Berserker can still complete some simple tasks without any problems.

"Alice, how are you feeling now?"

"To be honest, Kiritsugu, I feel a bit heavy."
