Chapter 215: Miracles that the Holy Grail Can Create
"Jun-Ying! Take us away!!!"
Astolfo shouted very weakly to the Hippogriff beside him.
As a mount, it is naturally much stronger than Astolfo, not to mention that it is a creature that only exists in fantasy.
The blessing of the Command Spell not only affects Astolfo himself, but also his mount.
After all, it was not Astolfo who defeated Semiramis, but the charge of his mount.
Astolfo would have no way of defeating Semiramis if the mount was poisoned first.
Even though Astolfo was poisoned, the Hippogriff that continued to charge forward might be able to defeat Semiramis.
As a weak Assassin, Semiramis has no armor that can withstand attacks except magic.
Moreover, her own endurance is not as high as Spartacus's, so the damage she received from a single Noble Phantasm was enough to cause her to be eliminated.
Although the Hippogriff is now very weak, it still has the ability to carry them out.
“Zheng——!”
And at the moment when the swarm of insects was about to surround them, the Holy Grail emitted an extremely dazzling and holy light.
The huge sphere collapsed in an instant, constantly condensing and shrinking, and a golden holy grail was suspended above the altar.
The swarm of insects also stopped their actions at this moment, and Lion Jie Li and the others also looked towards the Holy Grail that suddenly appeared.
There were only two people present whose attention was not attracted by the Holy Grail, and they were Joan of Arc and Achilles who were constantly fighting.
It was impossible for Achilles to stop because of the Command Spell, and conversely, it was impossible for Joan of Arc to stop her actions to resist Achilles' attack.
Therefore, at the moment when the Holy Grail appeared, the only sound left on the field was the sound of flags colliding with spears, echoing in the cathedral.
A dark figure appeared at the foot of the altar. It was a man wearing a skull mask, and he exuded an extremely dark aura from head to toe.
He gently placed his hand on the ground, and on his hand, a wriggling worm quickly crawled to the ground and expanded into an old man.
The old man walked up the already messy stairs with great excitement, his face full of excitement.
“The Holy Grail——!”
“The Holy Grail——!”
He seemed to be like a child, moving towards the Holy Grail excitedly.
“Where’s Emiya——?”
Astolfo's Master looked at the Holy Grail emerging from the altar and couldn't help but ask Lion Jie Jie Li.
"call----!"
Shishi Jiejieli put down the cigarette in his mouth tremblingly. Only if the Holy Grail appeared, the fate of Shirou Emiya and Shirou Amakusa Tokisada who went deep into the Holy Grail would be self-evident.
It can only be transformed into magic power by the Holy Grail and swallowed up.
"Is this the ending?"
Shishi Jiejie shook his head. In fact, the ending was already determined the moment Shirou Emiya rushed in, wasn't it?
But they believed that Shirou Emiya could create a miracle, stop what Amakusa Shiro and Tokisada did, and could walk out of the Holy Grail alive.
But, that's something that can only happen through a miracle, right?
Lion Jie Jie Li lowered his head, and the Hippogriff beside him carried Astolfo while the swarm of insects was stunned, and walked to the side of Lion Jie Jie Li and the android.
Although the Zerg stopped attacking at this time, if they did not leave, they would actually stay in the Cathedral Church.
There is a servant next to Zouken Matou, so they have no chance to launch a sneak attack on Zouken Matou.
There is no other way except leaving.
What's more, Joan of Arc had been signaling them with her eyes to escape quickly.
Lion Jie Jie Li is not like what is portrayed on TV, where he insists on staying even though he knows he is a burden.
Even Assassin is not someone that magicians like them can deal with.
What's more, the Assassin was the Cursed-Arm Hassan, who was extremely difficult to deal with among the Hassans.
Because of the subspecies Holy Grail Wars that took place all over the world, almost all the Hassans had records in the Magician's Association, and since the Lion Jiejie was about to participate in the Holy Grail War, he would naturally not miss these records about the Holy Grail War.
He immediately determined the true name of the servant who was staying beside Matou Zouken.
Without any hesitation, he picked up the android in one hand and rode on the Hippogriff.
I saw Matou Zouken holding up the Holy Grail floating in the air with trembling hands, his expression filled with excitement.
The ideal that I have been pursuing for so many years can finally be realized here.
eternal life----!
eternal life----!
He no longer has to use his decaying body and can truly embrace his eternal life.
It is impossible for anyone to remain calm in a situation where their ideal is about to come true.
You have to know that Matou Zouken has never truly obtained the Holy Grail. This can be said to be his first time to officially come into contact with the Holy Grail and use it to fulfill his wish.
"Holy Grail, I pray to you, please grant me eternal life!!"
After Matou Zouken finished saying this, the Holy Grail emitted an extremely intense light. A ray of light as thick as a pen shot out from the inside of the Holy Grail, broke through the roof of the cathedral, and completely illuminated the extremely dark night sky.
And Matou Zouken stood in front of the Holy Grail, waiting for the gift from the Holy Grail.
"Uncle, look——!"
亴In the villa on the hillside of the Yugdomirenia clan, Fiore, sitting in a wheelchair, looked out the window into the distance with an incredible look on her face.
The land that had been destroyed by Karna's treasure, the Hanging Garden, and where the Holy Grail War had taken place, began to revive at an extremely fast speed.
The emerald green grass quickly covered the entire barren plain. This was not a magic trick, but a real fact. The land began to recover at a very fast speed.
And this was not what shocked Fiore the most.
“BOOM! BOOM!”
At the edge of the plain, countless pieces of rubble flew up from the ground and were automatically built up one by one.
Almost in the blink of an eye, a castle exactly the same as the current castle of the Yogdomirenya clan stood on the plain.
"what happened?"
A black-haired young man shook his head and looked in great confusion at the magician who was standing at the edge of the town and looking at him in great shock, and spoke slowly.
Not only things, but even those who died in the Holy Grail War began to gradually revive.
In this small town on the edge of Toliface, the magicians and androids who were guarding the town to prevent anyone from discovering its destruction witnessed the town's restoration process with their own eyes.
"Well--!"
Blood sprayed on the ground of the cathedral.
Achilles' spear directly pierced Joan of Arc's abdomen. On the one hand, Joan of Arc's fighting skills were indeed inferior to Achilles'.
On the other hand, Jeanne planned to use another of her treasures to relieve herself from the worry that they would be killed by Matou Zouken.
"Ruler! You!"
Achilles did not understand what Joan of Arc wanted to do at this time, because in his eyes, although he was indeed stronger than Joan of Arc, he would not be able to defeat her so easily.
Joan of Arc simply drew out the sword that she had always worn at her waist but had never unsheathed.
He used his body to block the spear that pierced his abdomen.
“Puff…”
With a tearing sound, Jeanne cut her palm with the sword.
Ignoring Achilles, a pious prayer rang out from Joan of Arc's mouth.
"The heavens are the glory of the Lord, and the sky is the work of God's hand"
"Language is conveyed during the day, knowledge is conveyed at night"
“Can neither talk nor speak, nor hear a sound”
"The warm light spreads across the earth and extends to the end of the world"
"Climb up from the end of the sky, all the way around to the end of the sky"
"My end is here, my destiny is here, my life is here"
"My life is nothing, like a shadow wandering around"
"My bow is no help, my sword cannot save me"
"With the only thing left, I hope to protect his footsteps."
“Lord, I entrust this body to you”
The flames of the red lotus began to burn around Jeanne d'Arc.
Then, it burst out in one breath.
“After despair there will be hope!!!”
The red lotus fire ignited the entire Holy Church.

Chapter 216: People with no sense of existence
The early morning sun shines down from the sky, illuminating the entire street. Piece after piece of emerald green fallen leaves cover both sides of the road. The fresh air moves in the wind, bringing the colors of spring to decorate the street scene.
The streets here are more organized than lively.
Although there are a lot of people on the streets, it is not as noisy as a big city. On the contrary, just like Fuyuki City where Emiya Shirou lives, the people are simple and honest.
The small stalls lined up along the road were filled with all kinds of goods. The owners were trying to attract customers with smiles on their faces, but there was no loud noise. Everything was extremely peaceful.
And on this street, there are all kinds of people.
A woman carrying a bamboo basket and a bag, preparing to buy vegetables.
A white-collar worker wearing a suit and holding a bag, ready to go to work.
A resident dressed casually, with nothing in his hands, preparing to go for a morning run.
Students dressed in uniform, carrying backpacks, ready to go to school.
All kinds of people were coming in and out of the surrounding houses, creating a scene of bustling coming and going.
It is very rare that a street that accommodates so many people is not so noisy.
You have to know that the densely populated area in the urban area of Fuyuki City is still very noisy.
Although Fuyuki City is usually very quiet and peaceful, as long as there is no gas explosion, everything is fine.
But Shirou Emiya was not in a very good mood as he walked on this street.
On the one hand, it was because he was just like those worlds he had arrived in before, an illegal immigrant with no residence, no identity, and even no money.
After all, we were heading to the Cathedral Church for the final battle, and it seemed impolite to bring money with us.
It was as if ever since experiencing that Taisho era world, Emiya Shirou had given up bringing his cell phone into the door.
Because according to my fighting style, the newly bought mobile phone will probably be destroyed after just a few days of use.
So Shirou Emiya was not only an illegal resident at this moment, but also penniless. If it weren't for his strong physique, Shirou Emiya's stomach would probably be rumbling as he stood on the street.
And by asking, Shirou Emiya also found out where he was now.
Misaki City.
According to what Shirou Emiya knew, this was a city that was fairly large in the county and was famous for its unique scenery.
