In Zongman, the evil spirits are eliminated physically.

Kiritsugu Emiya had no choice but to agree. Without the Holy Relic, Lulutia asked Illya to summon the Heroic Spirit just like that, to summon the one that was most compatible with her, the other 'her' in another world.

Not knowing Ouyang Xuan's background, Ai Li did not go through the main entrance where she might run into Ouyang Xuan. Instead, she went through a back door, which led directly from the Vienna Opera House to a small alley next to it where there were not many people.

"Vienna is the capital of southern Germany, after all. How can there be such a dirty alley?"

Ai Li pushed the wheelchair carefully, avoiding the garbage on the ground. She didn't know where the exit was, so she just walked around. This kind of alley was connected in many directions, and she would definitely be able to get out if she walked a few more steps.

"Mom, are we lost?"

"No, Mom is taking Illya out, how could she get lost?"

How could Ellie admit it? "It's just that the road in this alley is long and winding, so it looks like I'm lost."

In order to prove that she was not lost, Ellie pushed Illya for a while, but not only did she not get out, she felt like she was going deeper and deeper. Not only was the light getting dimmer, but there was also more and more garbage on the ground, and the garbage was covered with a layer of dust. It was obvious that it had been lying on the ground for a long time and no one had ever cleaned it up.

"Mother……"

Illya hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, Illya, Mommy won't get lost. Mommy has a backup plan."

"Is Mom going to use magic?"

"If you don't use it when you need it, then there's no point, Illya."

Ellie took out the magic thread hidden in her sleeve. She had originally intended to use it to deal with Ouyang Xuan, but now it could be put to other use.

As Ellie chanted the spell, she injected her magic power into the silk thread in her hand. This silk thread was a magic item handed down from the Einzbern family. It could be transformed into a wire saw to attack, or it could be transformed into the shape of an animal to conduct reconnaissance and attack. It was a very versatile and easy-to-use magic item.

As Alice chanted the spell, the silk threads came alive in her hands, intertwining and weaving each other. After a while, a lifelike pigeon like a silk handicraft appeared in Alice's hands. She released the pigeon and let it act as her eyes, searching for a way out of the maze-like alley in the air.

Under the magic of shared vision, the scene in Ellie's eyes was constantly raised until the entire alley area was in her sight. After the pigeon circled in the sky for a few circles, it found a way out for Ellie. Ellie confidently pushed Illya over there.

"Mom is also very reliable, right, Illya?"

"Yeah, mom is super reliable."

"I'm Illya's mother. Let me take Illya out quickly and safely."

Ai Li looks like a mature and mature lady, but she is not very big inside, and most of the time she looks like a lively big sister.

Guided by the dove in the sky, Ellie led Illya and turned left and right, quickly leaving the deepest part of the alley. However, Ellie did not notice that as she moved forward, the scenery inside the alley also changed a little. The alley that was originally full of garbage gradually had some bloodstains, torn clothes, and some dried mucus.

"When we get home, Mom, I want some vanilla ice cream."

"Okay, Mom wants to eat some too. Eating cold ice cream next to a warm stove is the ultimate enjoyment."

After saying that, Ai Li also reminded: "But Illya can only eat one. If children eat too much, they will have diarrhea."

"That's not fair. Mom always eats several."

"Because mom is an adult, it's totally fine for her to eat a few more."

"I also want to grow up quickly."

Illya said sullenly.

"As long as Illya eats on time, she will grow up soon."

Ellie and Illya, mother and daughter, were following the pigeon on the ground. A blue tentacle suddenly shot out from the ground and grabbed the pigeon flying in the sky. The tentacle exerted a little force and flattened the pigeon made of silk thread. The silk thread soaked with Ellie's magic immediately turned into an ordinary ball of thread.

"what!"

Ellie, who shared the sight, let out a scream. The scene just now seemed as if she was caught by the tentacle and crushed to death alive. Although there was no shared pain, the visual impact made Ellie's heart tremble.

"mom!"

"Illya, don't move. Mommy is going to speed up."

When she realized she was being attacked, the first thing Ellie thought of was to take Illya and run away.

"Oh my! I thought it was the church or the Teutonic Knights who came to annihilate me. It turns out it's just two little white mice that broke into my magic workshop."

A man in a dark blue suit stood in front of Illya and Aili, looking at Aili and Illya with a hint of surprise. His protruding eyes moved around in a very scary way. Illya felt a tingling sensation all over her body just by being glared at.

"Ahhh, what a perfect alchemical product! Modern technology can already create humans and life. This is wonderful! Dissecting you and understanding you will allow me to gain a deeper understanding in my research on resurrecting Joan of Arc."

Looking at Illya and Ellie in the wheelchairs, Jill was very excited.

"Gildre!?"

Eri recognized the man in front of her. He was the Heroic Spirit summoned as a magician during the last Holy Grail War that Emiya Kiritsugu participated in.

"Ah la la, do you know me?"

Jill looked at Ellie. "I was trying to hide my identity, but how come I was seen through so quickly? Did you have a spell to reveal your real name when you were created?"

After the Heroic Spirits are defeated in the Holy Grail War and sent back to Valhalla, their memories of being summoned that time will be erased. Jill, who had met Ellie in the last Holy Grail War, naturally would not recognize her when they met again.

Gil has killed many children both in history and in the last Holy Grail War. Even the materials used in the experiment to resurrect Joan of Arc were used as entertainment. The last time, Gil died in the siege of the heroic spirits. This time, no one knows who summoned him out, and just like he did in the island country, Gil also built his own magic workshop in Vienna.

"Beautiful lady, if you give me that little android, you can leave here safely."

Seeing Jill pointing at her, Illya shrank back in her wheelchair in fear. She didn't know who Jill was or what he wanted to do to her. However, children tend to have stronger perception abilities, and just the aura emanating from Jill made Illya uneasy.

"dream!"

Ellie stood in front of Illya, and looking at her mother's back, Illya's frightened little heart felt a little safer.

Mom is a great magician, we will definitely be able to leave safely.

"I won't let you lay a finger on Illya!"

The silk threads surged, and two balls of silk threads were thrown out from Ellie's sleeves and turned into two hawks that swooped down towards Jill.

"Of course, it's great that you have something to protect, but you're too weak."

Gil admired Ellie's courage, "Ah~ You weakling, you can't even protect the person you want to protect the most, ah~ Jeanne!"

Gil's tone suddenly became crazy. He was originally quite talkative, but as soon as the topic came up with Joan of Arc, he became crazy. In a second, he turned from a magician into a berserker, holding his head with both hands as if he was shouting laziness.

The goshawk made of magic threads could not hurt Jill. Compared with a pure wizard, Jill's magic was more inclined to the summoning type. Two blue-skinned starfish-like sea monsters waved their tentacles and smashed and tore Ellie's goshawk into pieces.

"Don't underestimate me."

The goshawk that was smashed by the sea monster turned back into a silk thread, and then the silk thread danced in the air like a knife. The silk thread was like a wire saw, cutting off a piece of the sea monster. However, when it was about to kill the sea monster, it was destroyed by the magic emitted by Jill's body.

Ellie has a full understanding of her own fighting ability. It is difficult for her to defeat Jill alone. What she has to do now is very simple, that is to escape!

As long as he leaves this maze-like alley and runs outside, Gil will not chase him out to hide himself. He said that this place has become a magic workshop, and many children in Vienna may have been killed by him. It is impossible for him to run out in public. Now, even if he is Lulutia's experimental subject, the Teutonic Knights will not let him go.

The battle goal is very clear, that is to run! If I can't beat Jill, can I run away?

"Ahhh! This is the precious material I need to resurrect Jeanne d'Arc. I won't let you escape!"

Gil released his treasure book and cast a spell, and one blue-purple-skinned sea monster after another was summoned. In this maze alley that had become his own magic workshop, Gil could cast magic without worrying about being discovered by the Teutonic Knights, the guardian organization of Vienna.

88

Chapter 88 Do you remember how much bread you ate?

Fighting in a narrow space, the sea monsters that Jill summoned at the beginning were too big, and Ellie found the right opportunity to kill many of them one after another. Ellie's silver-white silk thread could cut the body of the sea monster very easily, and the thick and smelly soup that flowed out of the body after the sea monster was killed also made the alley stink.

A lot of big sea monsters were killed, but Jill was not in a hurry. He changed his strategy and the sea monsters he summoned changed from being half a person's height when standing up to being the size of a fist and a head. They spit corrosive liquid at Ellie from a safer distance.

After changing the strategy, the threat posed by the sea monster to Ellie suddenly increased a lot. Although the silk thread had good cutting ability, it was stretched in defense. Ellie had to push Illya and protect Illya while escaping. Although she still killed a lot of them, she was also injured several times. Several holes were corroded on her coat. If it weren't for the defensive magic on it, Ellie's body would have been injured.

"Mom, are you okay?"

"Illya, your mother can still fight all day long."

Ellie encouraged her daughter, but she was not so optimistic about her own dwindling magic reserves.

"Again, Mom."

Illya shouted, pointing at a sea monster lying on a protruding part of the building.

"watch out!"

After fighting with these little sea monsters for a while, Ellie also accumulated a lot of experience. As soon as this side showed its head, Ellie controlled the silk thread to pierce through, penetrate into the sea monster's body and then expand and explode, so as to achieve the effect of killing with one blow.

"wrong."

Ellie turned another corner and realized something was wrong. "According to the terrain that Pigeon observed at the beginning, Illya and I should have run out of the alley by now. Why are we still in it?"

"Mom, look."

Illya spotted a familiar wall. "Is this the wall where the sea monster attacked us in the beginning and was cut into pieces by my mother and her blood splashed on it?"

The sea monster had disappeared, but the traces left by the corrosive blood splashing were still clearly visible. Ellie and Illya had been trapped in a maze of alleys. Thinking of this possibility, Ellie immediately made another pigeon and released it, wanting to scout the situation from the air.

"Ah, did you notice? They've been circling above my magic workshop. I built this based on the Nino Taurus Labyrinth. Although the labyrinth cannot be transformed, the magic within it can still confuse those inside, making them circle around in circles."

"I was unexpectedly discovered by a child of an artificial human this time. I need to improve my skills. In the war of revenge after Jeanne's resurrection, my skills and magic will definitely help her achieve her revenge. Ah~ my holy virgin, let these two artificial humans help you on your road to resurrection."

A large number of small sea monsters were lying between the buildings, monitoring the movements of Ellie and Illya. When Ellie's pigeon just appeared after flying up, a beam of energy shot out and blew it up in mid-air. Jill didn't want to give Ellie a chance to investigate. As a former marshal, Jill knew very well the role of intelligence. It would be bad if Ellie really found the escape route.

At the same time as the pigeon was blown up, a large number of small sea monsters came towards Ellie and Illya from all directions, making a dark crawling sound on the ground like mice, and their teeth under their bodies would gnaw on the ground, leaving a small mark.

"Hold on tight, Illya. We're ready to charge."

Ellie crouched down and made a pose as if preparing to sprint.

"I'm ready, Mom."

"Then let's go!"

The silver-white silk thread waved in front of her body, killing the small sea monsters that blocked her way. The defensive protection also made Ellie, who was pushing Illya's wheelchair, run like a chariot, opening up a bloody road among the small sea monsters on the ground. Ellie's boots would make a crackling sound when she stepped on it, which was the sound of the soles of the shoes being slightly dissolved.

Jill was no longer ready to let Ellie run away, and the cat-and-mouse game ended there.

"Okay, Illya, let's rush out!"

After breaking through the encirclement of the little sea monsters, Ellie was a little excited and did not notice the abnormality on the ground.

"Mom, be careful! There's something under the ground!"

"What!?"

Illya's reminder was a little slower than the sea monster's action. A huge sea monster was lurking underground like a sand predator. When Ellie, who was pushing Illya, passed over it, the whole sea monster suddenly jumped up. Five hideous and terrifying tentacles emerged from the ground, locking Illya and Ellie in the middle. Then the sea monster, which looked like a starfish, closed up like a flower, trapping Illya and Ellie, just like a pitcher plant.

Alice twisted the scattered silk threads into a rope and stretched them out in a cross to block the sea monster from closing in. Alice's silk threads and the sea monster's tentacles kept making clicking sounds. It seemed that they were evenly matched, but in fact, Alice was struggling to hold on. From the time she came out of the opera house until now, Alice had been using magic non-stop. Without the Holy Grail, Alice's own magic power was not strong, and it was almost exhausted after such consumption.

"Mother."

Illya said anxiously.

"Mom is here, Illya, you won't get hurt."

Ai Li's face turned pale due to the gradual depletion of her magic power, but she forced a smile in order not to make her daughter sad.

"Mom~"

The corners of Illya's eyes turned red, and a feeling of self-blame spread in her heart. If she hadn't acted like a spoiled child and asked her mother to bring her to Vienna, these things wouldn't have happened, and her mother and she wouldn't have been in danger.

Command Seals, yes! I still have Command Seals!

"Mom, I have a way to save us!"

Illya raised her hands in surprise.

Unlike the weakened version of the Command Seals in a certain observatory, the Command Seals in Illya's hand can summon Heroic Spirits to her side regardless of distance.

Ellie immediately understood Illya's idea. If she wanted to fight against the Heroic Spirit, then it would be best to find another Heroic Spirit, the Heroic Spirit named Chloe who looked exactly like Illya. Although she had never seen her fighting with all her strength, judging from the fluctuations of magic power on her body and Kiritsugu Emiya's attitude of respect, she must be strong. Summoning her would definitely help break the deadlock.

"Illya, are you okay?"

Ellie was worried about Illya's current health and wondered if she could handle it.

"I can do it, for me and my mom."

Illya raised her hand. She was supposed to be bedridden, but after transferring half of her pain to Chloe, she regained a lot of control over her body. She could still activate the Command Spell.

"My Servant, come to me—"

Before Illya could finish her words, her throat felt like it was being squeezed tightly by a large hand.

A purple light wave flew past Illya, passed over her head, and hit Ellie who was behind Illya. Ellie's coat, which was blessed with defensive magic, was torn to pieces, and a big hole appeared on her chest. The surrounding area was scorched by the high-temperature energy. Ellie flew backwards as if she was hit by a car, flew out of the range of the sea monster's encirclement, and fell heavily to the ground.

"Excuse me, I didn't expect you to be one of the Masters of this Holy Grail War. It was a close call. I don't know why your Servant is not around, but in order to prevent my plan from being disturbed, I will kill you now."

Jill's tone of madness, as if it was a false alarm, landed in front of Ellie.

"Ilia..."

"mom--"
