"Sakura! Do you know what your biggest weakness is?" Allen asked, using his palm to easily block the girl's fist.
"Is it combat experience?" Sakura asked uncertainly.
Allen smiled and shook his head, "No! Experience is important, but it is never a weakness. Because as you experience more and more battles, it will naturally accumulate slowly. What you really lack is the courage and consciousness to fight to the death at critical moments. Remember, in many battles, it is not necessarily the case that you will win if you are strong. On the contrary, when the strength gap does not reach a certain threshold, whoever dares to fight more will win."
"But didn't you always teach me to stay rational in battle and not be swayed by emotions?" Sakura suddenly raised her right leg and used Rankyaku in "Six Powers".
moment!
The muscles in her feet contracted and stretched rapidly, kicking out at supersonic speeds that could not be detected by the naked eye, squeezing the air quickly, and eventually forming an extremely sharp vacuum chop.
Bang!
Allen directly blocked it with his left arm wrapped around Armament Haki, then grabbed the girl's ankle with his backhand and replied meaningfully, "The reason I want you to stay rational refers to observing and predicting the opponent's movements in the most scientific way, rather than directly arriving at a result through estimation. It's like when two people fight, everyone will subconsciously think that the bigger one will win, so when a smaller person conflicts with a stronger person, they will always subconsciously choose to escape and evade. So in reality, it is not uncommon for the weak to defeat the strong. So you must first break the mental cues and restraints given to yourself."
"You mean... I have subconsciously restricted myself?" Doubt and confusion appeared on Sakura's face.
"That's right! Think about it, do you really have the desire to defeat me? No, you don't. In your subconscious, you have already regarded me as an invincible existence, so all the attacks just now lacked the blessing of a belief. Having the belief of victory Nen attack should be like this..."
Allen suddenly released his left hand that was holding his ankle, and instantly released a fierce fighting spirit. He incorporated this strong will into his fist, and then hit the girl hard in the stomach.
Bang!
Sakura flew out in response, retreating for more than twenty meters before barely stopping.
The severe pain made her expression look painful.
Allen did not pursue, but just stayed in place and continued to talk to himself, "Did you feel it? The willpower and mental power contained in the fist just now! I have repeatedly emphasized it when I taught you to learn to use Life Energy, This is a special energy called Nian and Chakra, and these two energies are all affected by will and spirit. But you were still relatively young at the time and didn't seem to understand this well, so I will make up this lesson for you now."
"Inject the power of will and spirit into it..." Sakura stood there and fell into deep thought.
Because she used to simply regard these powers as a kind of energy and tools, just like magic power, and control and deploy them according to her own needs. She never thought about the increase brought by spirit and will.
Seeing that his teachings were starting to take effect, Allen suddenly felt very relieved and once again turned his attention to the battle in the distance that was coming to an end.
Although Monsterification's Medusa has been relying on its amazing strength, defense, and resistance to move as flexibly as a snake, leaving Saber with no time to complete the forward swing and fully release the power of the holy sword. However, as the injuries became more and more serious, her movements and reactions gradually slowed down, and it was obvious that she was running out of energy.
"It's finally over."
Artoria stared at the scarred opponent in front of him with a complicated expression, and once again injected magic power into the golden sword in his hand.
She obviously didn't expect that after losing Pegasus, the strongest Noble Phantasm, Rider could actually struggle with her for such a long time with Monsterification and Petrifying Gaze.
"Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!"
Medusa had lost his mind at this moment and was just letting out a low growl of unknown meaning like a dying beast.
"Excalibur!"
Without any hesitation or mercy, Artoria directly released his strongest Noble Phantasm - Excalibur.
Because she couldn't wait to touch Holy Grail, make a wish to this so-called universal wishing machine, and get another chance to save Ancient Britain Kingdom.
No matter who stands in the way, they will be eliminated without mercy.
The golden light beam was like an energy cannon in a science fiction work, completely engulfing Medusa in an instant.
This time, she no longer had the energy to dodge or interfere.
Under the high-speed impact of light particles, the sixth Servant finally disappeared from this world and was captured by Lesser Grail.
Feeling the restlessness of the six souls in Lesser Grail, desperately trying to get rid of the shackles and return to Throne of Heroes's souls, Allen immediately turned into a beam of lightning, directly descending on the center point of the intersection of Ryūdō Temple Ley Line, and completed the drawing of the magic circle at an extremely fast speed.
After a brief chant, a hole finally opened in the dark night sky above.
However, what is different from Holy Grail War last time is that what flows out of the gap this time is not Black Mud containing Shalltear, but pure light blue magic power.
At the other end of the pore is the Root that all Magus are eager to reach.
As for Holy Grail, it has long been filled and is standing quietly in the center of the array.
"This... is Holy Grail! The Holy Grail I long for!"
Saber stared at the golden cup with wide eyes, and was so excited that he couldn't help himself.
"Go! According to our agreement, it is yours now." Allen smiled and turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation.
"Thank you!"
After receiving permission, Artoria immediately rushed forward to hold Holy Grail with both hands, closed his eyes and began to make a pious wish.
But Allen knows that all this is in vain.
Because all Holy Grail can provide is magic power, the wish-maker must provide a method to realize the wish, and this wish must not exceed the upper limit of Holy Grail's magic power.
So he ignored Saber's thoughts at all, but raised his head and looked directly at the Root world filled with nothingness at the other end, or the soul world.
Since when passing through Dark Gate, the first place that appeared was Throne of Heroes, so Allen does not need to sacrifice the last Servant as the original designer of Holy Grail thought, and then it can be used as a carrier to get as close as possible to Root.
And Soul-Soul Fruit also played a huge role at this time.
Just by releasing a ray of soul energy through the hole, he instantly received a large amount of information from the other end, flooding in like a tsunami.
original!
huge!
chaos!
Disorder!
Allen felt like his brain was going to explode, filled with all kinds of things that were like memory fragments.
He couldn't control himself at all, nor could he control what he "saw", he just passively accepted it.
I don't know how long it took.
Maybe it's seconds, maybe minutes, maybe hours...
When that ray of soul energy was cut short by an unknown force, Allen finally shuddered subconsciously and suddenly recovered from the massive information washout. At the same time, he was surprised to find that he had completely mastered all the techniques of Third Magic Soul Materialization at some point.
This is something that cannot be described in any language, is mysterious and mysterious, knowledge that can only be understood and comprehended by those who have personally arrived at Root.
At this moment, he finally understood why the five major magics could not be transmitted through normal means. Once the magic user died or disappeared, the magic would be lost immediately.
It's not that the magician doesn't want to teach, it's that he simply can't teach.
Unless you arrive at Root yourself, you will never be able to understand what Infinity is close to the power of rules.
Just when Allen was immersed in the joy of getting Soul Materialization, a slightly older voice suddenly came from behind. "I thought something terrible happened here. It turns out that you completed Holy Grail Ritual and officially became Third Magus by getting close to Root."
After that, an old man with short silver-gray hair and beard, strange red pupils, wearing a black classic suit, and a cane in his hand, slowly walked up from the steps of Ryūdō Temple.
"Jewel Mage Jishua Zelrich·Shibaingu?" A look of surprise appeared on Allen's face.
He didn't expect that this old man would appear in front of him at such a time and in such a sudden way.
"Haha, it seems you recognize me, doesn't it? A traveler from another world." Jewel Mage directly named Allen's identity and origin.
After all, he is Second Magus, able to travel freely between different parallel worlds.
It couldn't be easier to confirm whether a person is a native of this world.
If it is an aborigine, it should exist in multiple parallel worlds at the same time.
If it only exists in one world and there is no trace at all in other parallel worlds, it can be immediately determined that it is an intruder from outside.
Allen obviously knew this very well and did not try to deny it. He just nodded with a smile, "Yes! I recognize you. Do you have any advice? Or are you here specifically to eliminate me, an outsider?"
"No, no, no, please don't get me wrong. I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm just fulfilling my obligations as a witness to the original creation of Holy Grail, and then I happened to discover your existence." Jewel Mage explained casually.
"Perform obligations? Ah! I understand. But I must regret to tell you that the three people who signed the contract and their descendants failed to realize their dreams. Instead, I, an outsider, realized Third Magic. But I don't intend to use it on myself, because to a certain extent, my body has already reached the standard of immortality, so there is no need to bother."
While saying these words, Allen casually grabbed the soul of a squirrel that was frozen to death, and then completely materialized its soul.
In just a few seconds, the squirrel, which could only exist in soul form, regained its body and let out a squeaking sound.
No doubt about it!
The so-called Soul Materialization is to allow creatures to get rid of their Decay bodies and reshape them with immortal souls.
After reshaping, the creature will become an immortal existence.
As long as you don't think about it yourself or get killed by someone, you can live forever until the end of time.
"It is indeed Third Magic! Then tell me, will you use it on all mankind?" Jewel Mage's tone suddenly became serious.
"Use it on all mankind? Are you kidding me?" Allen suddenly showed a dumbfounded expression. "You must know that the current human civilization is based on a social structure based on death. Without death, human beings will lose the most important sense of time and desire. Without these two points, various needs will drop rapidly, scientific research progress and social development will also stagnate, and eventually become lifeless. I absolutely do not approve of such human beings. So please rest assured, I have no interest in saving human beings. Because human beings have never needed one or two so-called saints to save them."
The words just fell!
Allen casually crushed the Immortal Squirrel that had completed Soul Materialization to death, showing his attitude with practical actions.
"That's right! Humanity never needs to be saved! Because if it really comes to the point where one or two people are needed to save it, then the human race will have to perish. I'm glad that you and I have reached an agreement on this point, Third Magus."
Jewel Mage put one hand on his chest and bowed gracefully.
"I'm glad to see you too, Second Magus - Jishua Zelrich Shibaingu." Allen returned the gift in the same way.
In the end, the two looked at each other and smiled, understanding what the other was thinking.
Obviously, Jewel Mage is here to confirm whether Allen will use Third Magic to transform all mankind in this world with Soul Materialization.
If so, then he would find a way to stop it even if he risked his life.
But now it seems that there should be no need for that.
Just when the two of them wanted to say something, or exchange knowledge and experiences about magic and magic, Artoria, holding Holy Grail in his hand, finally slowly opened his eyes, with a disappointed expression on his face.
You don't need to ask to know that her wish failed, and the huge magic power contained in Holy Grail has not been reduced even a drop.
Confused and at a loss, this girl who seemed to have lost the meaning of life walked up to Allen and asked in a very helpless voice, "You already know the outcome of all this, right?"
"Well! I have told you more than once that Holy Grail cannot fulfill your wish. It is absolutely impossible to change the past history. Even if you use some special means to go back to the past, you will only end up creating a parallel world out of thin air. So give up that heavy burden, and I can help you regain your life."
Allen took the initiative to extend his right hand to Saber.
Through Third Magic Soul Materialization, he can easily let the opponent get rid of the restraint of inhibition and regain his immortal body here.
Artoria is obviously struggling fiercely in his heart!
After a full minute, she took a deep breath to calm down her restless heart, knelt on one knee and took the hand handed over by Allen, and solemnly swore with a serious face. "I, Artoria Pendragon, officially give up my identity as a king and serve you as a knight as agreed. From today on, you are my monarch and the person I am loyal to."
"I accept it! And give you a new body!"
As the last word blurted out, Allen launched Third Magic Soul Materialization without thinking...
