At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

"So I specifically devised some plans for you to prevent sudden disasters, one of which is to give you the ability to summon Servants and perform spirit particle transfer after Chaldea falls."

"While you and Mashu were traveling the world, I didn't get a single day off. It seems Master has no idea how hard I've been working, boohoo." Da Vinci pretended to wipe away tears.

"Uh... how could that be? I always knew that Da Vinci was working overtime, hahaha... Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Da Vinci." Fujimaru Ritsuka awkwardly broke out in a sweat. She really hadn't noticed. After all, Da Vinci was busy tinkering with inventions every day. She couldn't admit that she had too much fun during her round-the-world trip.

"Haha, not only that, Da Vinci and I have also devised a series of escape routes to ensure that we can escape safely with all members should Chaldea collapse," Holmes said with a laugh, then shook his head regretfully.

"I really didn't expect the accident to happen so quickly, but everything is still within the possibilities we had anticipated."

"When I learned that the United Nations and the Clock Tower were going to conduct a joint investigation into Chaldea, I had a vague feeling that something was wrong."

"In particular, I could clearly feel a kind of palpitation from the secretary of the Russian NFF property liquidation company that was neither human nor magician."

"Therefore, we secretly sent a code to all Chaldea personnel in advance, so that if anything unexpected happens to Chaldea, we would all act according to the plan and head to the maintenance hangar together."

"The three vehicles in the maintenance hangar are equipped with all the functions of Chaldea."

"Although those three vehicles only have 20% of the capabilities of Chaldea, they are more than enough to handle extreme situations."

“All the Chaldea members have already escaped the blockade and gone to repair the hangar, but you, Fujimaru Ritsuka, were the last to leave.”

Fujimaru Ritsuka's lips twitched slightly after hearing this: "So I was kept in the dark, like a complete idiot preparing to launch a counterattack."

Holmes said apologetically, "Master, don't be angry. The main problem is that you, Da Vinci, and I are the key targets for imprisonment. If we are exposed prematurely, the other Chaldea members will suffer heavy casualties."

“Anyway, I feel safer than ever before being associated with Leonardo da Vinci and Sherlock Holmes.” Mashu’s eyes sparkled.

“Of course, you can trust me at any time, even if I have sacrificed myself,” Da Vinci said confidently. “The enemy is coming with great force, and even with a detailed plan, it is not 100% safe. At the critical moment, Holmes and I will stay behind to hold them off.”

She has already copied her Spirit Origin once, and even if she sacrifices herself, the copy of her Spirit Origin will continue to help Fujimaru Ritsuka.

“That’s right, we’ve been prepared to sacrifice ourselves at any time.” Holmes nodded.

"How can that be? No matter what, we cannot allow sacrifice." Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression changed, and she said with utmost seriousness. Had Leonardo da Vinci and Sherlock Holmes already considered self-sacrifice in the current situation at Chaldea?

"Don't worry, we are Servants, we are already dead. At worst, we can be summoned again when there is an opportunity. I will definitely respond to Master's summons with all my might," Holmes said calmly.

As they talked, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others ran towards the repair hangar as fast as they could.

Chaldea itself is quite large, even larger than a typical small town.

They soon arrived at the hangar, which was occupied by three huge shipping containers. The front of the containers had been opened, and the forty-seven Chaldea personnel, though flustered, cooperated perfectly and entered the armored vehicles inside the containers in an orderly manner.

The armored vehicle is blue-gray in color, exuding a futuristic feel, and is extremely large. Just by looking at its exterior, it can accommodate twenty people for long-term living. It also uses expansion magic, making the interior space twice as large as it appears.

"We've finally escaped here safely!"

I hope everyone is safe and sound!

"It's alright, it's alright! Thank goodness no one fell behind!"

"Oh no! Oh no! I was following the escape route to get the A-group Masters who perished in the Lev explosion and were being frozen, but I discovered that all their bodies were gone!"

"What? They're all gone? How is that possible! Nobody touched the cryogenic chamber! There's no record of it being opened since it was frozen!"

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others ran over and asked the anxious woman who was stamping her feet.

"What's wrong? What happened? Is someone still missing?"

"It's Group A! The cryo-chamber of the Group A Master is empty!" the female staff member said hurriedly.

The seven Masters of Group A were originally the main force for 'spiritual transfer', but they were in critical condition and fell into a state of suspended animation during the Lev incident. In order to save their lives, they were all cryogenically frozen.

"..." Holmes paused for a moment: "Things are becoming increasingly confusing."

"There's no time to investigate these issues now. Everyone should get to a safe place first."

Just as all the ordinary members of Chaldea boarded the 'Chaldea Express', an announcement came over the loudspeaker.

Help! Someone please help me!

Is there no one who can save me...?

His voice trembled with despair and resignation.

It's always the same; I'm always betrayed, always abandoned...

Damn it, I thought coming here would make me stand out, but so far I haven't had a single good thing happen...

"Ouch! It hurts! I don't want to die, I don't want to die yet..."

I have never received recognition from anyone, never been loved by anyone, and never received kindness from anyone...

The Chaldea members gritted their teeth upon hearing the sound.

"It's that guy's voice! How dare he ask for help!"

"Exactly, Chaldea has become like this because of that guy!"

"They were so arrogant before, and now they have the nerve to ask for help."

"Ignore those guys, let's go!"

"Yeah, who cares about that fat guy!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka stopped abruptly, her eyes trembling slightly, and her hands involuntarily clenched.

The voice on the radio instantly brought back memories of a time she could never forget: when Director Olga Marie was thrown into the 'Simulated Celestial Sphere Chaldea' by Rafe, she said exactly the same thing as the fat man on the radio.

"What's wrong, Master? You don't mean you want to go back and save that 'new director,' do you?" Da Vinci instantly understood Fujimaru Ritsuka's thoughts: "There's no need to go back and save him. Chaldea's current state is entirely his own fault."

"If you want to go back and save him, I will help you."

"I will follow whatever you do, senior." Mashu's expression remained firm.

“Go back. Although I don’t like him either, and he speaks very harshly, he didn’t make things difficult for us during the interrogation. He even asked the others to treat us well. At least if we can save him, we shouldn’t abandon him,” Fujimaru Ritsuka said through gritted teeth.

"I don't want what happened to the director to happen again! Absolutely not!"

"As expected of a Master, a savior of humanity even recognized by the gods," Holmes said, his admiration for Fujimaru Ritsuka growing even stronger. Every Servant would hope to encounter a Master like her. Although Fujimaru Ritsuka was completely incomprehensible to magicians, it was precisely this incomprehensibility that made them willingly help her.

"Moreover, I have the blessing of God. Whenever I fall into a desperate situation, a miracle will be triggered to turn the crisis around. Under such circumstances, I have to go even more." Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes were extremely sharp.

She faced so many life-threatening dangers when she was an ordinary person. Now that she has God's help, if she still hesitates and trembles, how can she be worthy of all the experiences she has gone through?

She absolutely did not want to see anyone sacrifice themselves in front of her, whenever she could.

“Holmes, I’ll leave it to you to lead the Chaldea forces to evacuate first. Master and I will follow shortly. As planned, we’ll meet at the designated safe location,” Da Vinci said.

"Go ahead without worry," Holmes nodded.

Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mashu, and Da Vinci turned and ran back the way they came.

"Fou~" Fou, who had already gotten into the car, quickly ran down and jumped onto Mashu's shoulder.

"Ah? Fou! It's dangerous now!" Mashu said helplessly. She wouldn't be able to take care of Fou when the battle started. However, Fou is an animal with some special abilities, so she should be able to hide on her own.

"Fou~" Fou responded, thinking that the broadcast had a smell that it disliked, so it must be fake. It could tell that the pink-haired woman's true form was Beast. Although she was still in her juvenile stage, she was far stronger than ordinary Servants. Da Vinci couldn't beat her, and there might be an accident. It had to go with her.

If an accident occurs, it can also use its power to take Fujimaru Ritsuka away.

Although its true nature as a Beast will gradually be revealed once it uses its power, it will transform this power into a special Noble Phantasm and give it to Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash before its true nature is revealed. Although it will become an ignorant beast at that time, it originally intended to do so.

With its power, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu will find it much easier to deal with other Beasts in the future.

The passage leading to the Chaldea control room was blocked by hundreds of 'people' wearing crow masks, who were rushing towards Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.

"Get out of my way!" Mashu instantly donned the purple eggplant armor, a round table appeared in her hand, which she lifted and hurled at the man in the raven mask.

Bang! Crack! Boom—

The man in the raven mask fired a gun with one hand and wielded a hand axe with the other, aiming at Mash, but was immediately sent flying by a shield bash, smashing the ground and walls with the impact.

Buzz—The raven-masked man suffered a fatal injury and stopped moving, disappearing as blue magic.

"Battering ram!" Leonardo da Vinci conjured a prosthetic limb out of thin air, which slammed into the approaching raven-masked man like a cannon ram, smashing him to pieces with a deafening roar.

Although there are many people wearing raven masks, they are at most equivalent to the threshold of becoming a Servant, essentially blank slates with only the body of a Servant but no skills or Noble Phantasms.

They quickly fought their way to the 'control room', where the only place with a broadcast system was the control room.

"Eeeeeeeee—are we doomed?! We've used up all our magic guns and exorcism talismans!" Gerdruf was surrounded by dozens of raven-masked men in front of a wall. His face was ashen, and he was so scared that snot was running down his face. He kept pulling the trigger of his magic gun, but only made empty clicking sounds.

"It must have hurt a lot. Those hand axes would have chopped me into mincemeat in an instant."

"I've seen relevant information in the Clock Tower's archives. These guys were a secret hunting force formed by Tsar Ivan the Terrible of Russia in the late 17th century to eliminate opponents. I think they were called the Killing Hunters!"

"Why would these serial killers, who specialize in murder, be resurrected in Antarctica?!"

"what--"

A woman's shout rang out, and a shield slammed down in front of Gerdruf, sending the approaching Killer Hunter flying in an instant.

"Thank goodness you're still alive!"

Mash cleared a path with her fists and rushed in front of Gerdruf.

"Wow, still so resilient, Gerdruf," Leonardo da Vinci quipped.

“Da Vinci the Servant! And that little girl who's a Demi-Servant, and that insignificant half-baked magician!” Geldof was stunned, then shouted, “What are you doing here! Do you know how dangerous this is!”

"Didn't you shout for help over the loudspeaker?" Fujimaru Ritsuka said irritably, crossing her arms. "You'd better kowtow and express your gratitude properly!"

"Broadcast? What did you say? What broadcast?" Gerdruf was stunned, then gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, after all, you're employees and I'm the director, so it's barely my duty. I'll give you a raise, but right now the most important thing is to escape!"

He was actually very grateful to the Chaldea staff for saving him, but if it meant losing several more lives to save him, he felt his own life wasn't that valuable. After all, he was just a useless magician. His arrogance towards the Chaldea staff was actually a way of masking his inner inferiority complex, fearing that these senior experts at Chaldea would look down on him.

"You're really stubborn as a mule, Fatty Director." Fujimaru Ritsuka sneered.

"Don't call me Fatty! I bought Chaldea, so I'm at least... Oh no! Run! They're coming again!" Gerdruf said stubbornly, but his face turned pale with fear before he could finish.

Swarms of killing hunters kept pouring in through the breach in Chaldea, and within seconds, more than a dozen more appeared in the control room.

"Anyway, run! Don't get entangled in a fight. If we get into a tug-of-war with so many of them, it'll be troublesome!" Da Vinci said, as his robotic arm continuously fired laser cannons.

Boom! Boom! Boom! One of the killing hunters was taken down in just two shots.

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu followed Da Vinci as they sped away.

"No! Don't run so fast! I can't keep up!" Gerdruf, his obese body panting heavily, followed behind.

"If you don't run faster, you'll be chopped into mincemeat!" Fujimaru Ritsuka showed no mercy.

"Damn it! I'm the director, director! At least speak more gently!" Gerdruf was angry, but also felt a little wronged. I sold all my possessions to get Chaldea, can't I even get a title of director?

"Hurry! We'll reach the maintenance hangar after just two more passages!" Leonardo da Vinci said.

Just then, a group of killing hunters walked out from around the corner of the corridor ahead, and in front of them was a stylish woman dressed in white Lolita fashion, with long pink hair flowing behind her, hands on her hips, and a wicked smile on her face.
