Stray Chapter 65: Closed
Time seems to lose its meaning, not knowing how long a second is and how short a minute is.
Xia Ran is enduring the feeling of the bad mental shock, feeling that her soul is like a stubborn rock that has fallen into the raging waves, and is constantly being eroded and washed by the terrible tide ——
It’s not that they suffered from any painful substantive injury and torture, but suffered unbearable mental torment, as if the rigid thinking could not work at all, and the consciousness seemed to be frozen.
The body did not feel any pain caused by physical damage, and the soul did not suffer any substantial damage like brutal torture such as tearing and piercing.
It is pure malice following the feedback of the Ebony Blade, hitting him like a raging wave——
Hate, grief, grief, loneliness, helplessness, despair, resentment… Countless malice, curses full of resentment, thick enough to present a viscous black state like silt, which has solidified into reality.
This is the sin of the whole world. The malicious intent of the gathering is hard to calculate. If I had to find a unit to describe it, it would probably be a terrifying weight of nearly 600 million people.
Because this is “all evil in this world”, that is, all evil in this world, and in 1994, the world’s total population has reached 5.6 billion people. According to such a concept, it is natural to Estimate its approximate serving size.
After all, as the concept of the sum total of all evils in the world, it will naturally increase according to the number of primates in this world. If the number of intelligent primates in the world is very small, then the total amount of this evil will also be very small.
But unfortunately, Xia Ran did not encounter its trough period, but at the beginning it was a terrible weight of more than five billion people. No one in the world is willing to take the initiative to contaminate this level of terror.
It brings together all the malice in the world. This curse is like substance, heavy as a mountain or an abyss. The impact on spiritual thinking is the most terrifying. Everything will be assimilated.
At that time, people will have nothing left. Simply put, they will be digested by the black mud… or simply become a part of the black mud, and even their personality and body will become their own. One of the masks or identities that can be used.
It was also at this moment that Xia Ran clearly realized that Gilgamesh was definitely not a sinner who had shouldered the whole world, and that guy would never be able to bear these things, and he would never have such a backbone…
It’s like the whole ocean is black ink, and a drop of water falls into it, it is absolutely impossible to carry the ocean back, what kind of golden soul, the king carrying all the tools, these are all nonsense.
In this case, quantity is required rather than mass-
If the upper limit of your spiritual will and soul consciousness is more than the evil weight of nearly 6 billion people, then you can naturally carry it all down brutally.
Otherwise, there is basically only one outcome.
Gilgamesh was not digested by the black mud, definitely because the guy himself was no different from the black mud, and his own was also the ultimate evil in the world, so the black mud had no need to assimilate him, just like the black mud There is no way that something that is transparent can be dyed black again.
However, although this feeling is terrible now, Xia Ran can barely hold on, and must hold on.
Because the structure of the “hole” was destroyed by the piercing of the ebony blade, it began to become unstable, and now it is rapidly disappearing, and it is about to be completely closed… So he does not need to really single out the evil in this world , just need to deal with the part that poured out like a waterfall from just now to now.
Well, maybe there is also the part of the “hole” from which the magic knife was drawn directly before it was completely closed.
Although it is also a very large amount of energy, after all, the magic power has been infected with a curse, and it has also materialized into pitch-black black mud, turned into turbulent waves, and almost destroyed half of the city…
This is already quite a majestic energy, but it is still very limited relative to the overall evil in this world.
At the moment in front of him, the “hole” that the ebony blade inserted into has become the eye of the whirlpool——
It’s like the eye of a huge typhoon, pulling everything around it and turning it rapidly. The effect of the magic knife is madly absorbing the black mud, and the malicious evil that pollutes the world is swallowed in an endless stream!
The jet-black mud flow that flows out is about to be sucked back, but behind the “hole” that has not been completely closed, the magic knife is still drawing power continuously, swallowing it frantically.
As if the unknown space behind the “hole” was a bottomless pit, no matter how Xia Ran extracted it, the majestic malicious magic showed no signs of exhaustion.
At the same time, Xia Ran also felt that the ebony blade in his hand seemed to become hot, it seemed to be overheated, he was like an ordinary person holding an iron sword that was burning red all over.
At the same time, cracks appeared in his body, constantly exuding bright red liquid, but then it was repaired under the power of the scabbard. This is the result of absorbing energy frantically. After all, his body is not Bottomless pit——
Although it is the gambler’s nature that the lost person can never get rid of, let him take risks with the idea of the last one, but always use all the conditions at hand to create a favorable situation for himself as much as possible.
Saber’s Avalon is now on his body, which is equivalent to the powerful immortality brought by the Noble Phantasm in the magic field, and it is the last insurance.
The prompt sound of the space kept ringing in his consciousness, and it seemed that he was frantically swiping the screen very frequently, but at this time, he had no extra mood to check them one by one, because there was no exception. It’s all reminding him-
Because of the feedback of the energy-absorbing effect of the Ebony Blade, he gained a free attribute point…
Every time a prompt sounds, it basically means the acquisition of a point, but there is no time to allocate it.
Because all his energy and mind are now used to resist the mental shock of the black mud that came back together.
It’s almost…it’s almost…the magic channel will be closed…
Die…die…the terrible malice converged into a curse, madly attacking his spirit…
Under this situation, he can only get rid of all distracting thoughts, concentrate on it, strengthen his spiritual will over and over again, and give self-suggestion to his spirit over and over again, making his heart as iron as stone.
……
……
I don’t know how long it has passed. It’s hard to say whether it’s long or short. In the end, the “hole” in the sky disappeared, and the black mud no longer gushed out.
Even the part that was poured out before was drawn clean, but near the Minhui Hall on the Xindu side, most of the area has been destroyed and burned down, leaving only flames and ruins .
The cold snowy night seems to be completely unaffected. Under the bright moonlight, the crystal snowflakes are still falling slowly, and will soon cover up all traces of uncleanness and sin on the earth.
When Xia Ran slowly landed, she stumbled a bit first, as if she was unstable, and then she stood still after shaking a bit.
“Master, are you okay?” The knight girl who hurried over helped him nervously.
Even if she doesn’t speak of the promise she made before, she will never break her oath easily, and the many things she has experienced tonight are enough to make her view of this magician a lot better.
“Is this… the end?”
“Is it?…is it over for the time being?”
Xia Ran also thought about it uncertainly, then raised the magic knife in her hand that was still buzzing excitedly, and sighed uncontrollably.
“Actually, it can only be said that it can only cure the symptoms but not the root cause. The curse inside the Great Holy Grail still exists. You should have seen it just now, behind that vortex…”
“Then what should we do now? Go straight to the Great Holy Grail?” Saber asked seriously and earnestly.
As a perfect knight who has been through many battles, as a perfect king who has lived forever, she knows that this time is definitely not the time to be sad and grief-stricken, although she is indeed for the lost Irisviel Feeling sad and heartbroken.
But with tears, screaming and crying here is definitely not her style, nor does it work.
The Holy Grail has been lost, and it has lost the meaning of continuing to pursue it, but at least these repeated tragedies must be resolved, and they cannot be repeated again… Saber looked around subconsciously.
The flames and ruins are like this for hundreds of thousands of kilometers around. It is like an apocalyptic scene, and it looks empty and desolate. Whether it was Jin Glitter’s Deviance Sword ea, or the Sword of Victory of the Oath that she liberated before, they all blew away the surrounding streets and blocks.
Roads, buildings, street lamps, etc., all seem to be made of paper. Under the swept away of the terrifying Noble Phantasm, they vanished in an instant. Coupled with the burning of the scorching curse brought by the black mud just now, Now, the area around the Minhui Hall has changed beyond recognition.
If the residents of this neighborhood hadn’t been evacuated in advance, this place would have been the most tragic hell.
So, although there is no reason to continue to pursue the Holy Grail, at least this problem must be solved… No one with normal nerves will think that those black mud will be any good thing, and she feels even more that she can’t pretend not to see it. The question of the Great Holy Grail.
The girl clenched the golden holy sword in her hand.
This fierce and clear brilliance once illuminated the darkness of the chaotic world deeper than the night, suppressed the chaotic world, brought the chaos into order, led the people to unprecedented prosperity when the country was about to collapse, and created the most popular way of knighthood. era.
She has always adhered to the spirit of chivalry, proud of her will, and righteousness of carrying out this belief.
It can be said that at this moment she is still clinging to the holy sword in her hand, she is still breathing, her heart is still beating, and all of this is for this reason.
“I think so too, but I probably don’t have time…” Xia Ran twitched the corners of her mouth and looked to the side with her eyes drifting. status.
His stay time is now showing a question mark, but you don’t even need to look at it to know. When it shows the specific time, it is estimated that it will be cleared immediately, and there may not be a few minutes for him to stay. .
But think about it too—
Gilgamesh, who could last ten years later, died, and Kotomine Kirei, who could last ten years, also died, and Emiya Kiritsugu also died. It is estimated that Emiya Shirou is gone…
——After all, Fuyuki City was not destroyed by a fire, and Emiya Shirou will not be rescued in the disaster. Of course, it is not that Emiya Shirou died, but the one who should have become Emiya Shirou. The child will not encounter disasters again, and then be adopted by Emiya Kiritsugu.
There were not too many innocent civilian casualties in Fuyuki City tonight. Even if it continues to be fooled by the reason of “gas explosion” tomorrow, it can be explained.
“Wait, Master, why do you say there is no time left? Although the Holy Grail is gone, the end of the Holy Grail War should be conditional on the last group winning?”
Alturia’s expression changed slightly, she stared at the magician in front of her, and lowered her voice nervously: “Could it be that you…you were seriously injured just now? Now you can’t hold on anymore…but Avalon is on you…”
“It’s not an injury, although my current state is indeed a bit poor…” Xia Ran shook her head, “But it’s the reason that I can’t hold on anymore. My stay in this world has reached the limit.”
“…What do you mean?” Saber looked at him in amazement.
“Literally, you can understand it this way, I’m not from this world, my time in the world has run out, and I will disappear from this world next time…” Xia Ran thought for a while and gave this an answer.
“…”
“…”
The expression of the king of knights suddenly became very exciting. She felt that her whole person was not good: “So, it means that you are actually… a servant?”
What the **** is going on with this guy? Is he a lasagna? !
“Your comprehension, well, can’t be wrong… eh?”
Xia Ran was still in the mood to joke, but at this moment, he seemed to notice something and turned his head to look at the distance of the flames and ruins——
“Kariya seems to have brought Berserker here to support, should it be Caster’s suggestion? But just right, Saber, do you want to take advantage of this last moment to settle personal grievances with him?”
