I Create the Holy Grail War, Shocking the World

They were Celts, fanatically devoted to King Arthur, with a proud sense of their own heritage...

They were Celts.

They were generally distributed throughout Western Europe.

Modern Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish from England, and Bretons from France all belong to the Celts.

This is because King Arthur, who specifically resisted the barbaric Anglo-Saxons, was the King of Celtic Mythology, the Red Dragon.

With the Greenland Island incident, the public was in an uproar. Under the wave of popular sentiment, an unbreakable and powerful cohesion was formed. The Irish government, snapping back to reality, secretly pulled strings, wanting to hold another referendum for independence.

(Note: The full name of the United Kingdom is the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.)

(Essentially, it is not a single country, but a large federal state.)

As for why the public wanted Ireland to leave the Union?

Because the British are pure vampires, and Ireland was a British colony.

They have too many things to deal with!

Just take the famous Irish Potato Famine between 1845 and 1850. Under the rule of the "sun never sets" empire, Ireland's staple crop, the potato, rotted, and late blight ravaged the land...

In just five years, millions of Irish people were killed, the population decreased by a quarter, and a large-scale wave of emigration erupted.

How could anyone put up with that?

However, their territories were adjacent, and they couldn't win in a fight. When technology was not well-developed, they had no choice but to endure it.

Now that they have the ability to turn their backs, they will definitely seize this great opportunity to confront the British government!

Moreover, it would not be a bad idea to bring the rusty Sword in the Stone from the British Museum back to Ireland for people to admire, as a way to stir up public emotions.

In addition, there were many subsequent effects after the Glastonbury mirage incident.

Flights to Glastonbury were sold out.

Countless people worldwide were in a frenzy, wanting to see the place where the miracle occurred.

The videos shot by tourists at the time went viral on YouTube, with clicks easily breaking billions.

Perhaps...

In another two days, millions of tourists could be seen in Glastonbury.

They were people from all over the world, of different skin colors and appearances, filled with reverence for King Arthur as they came to admire the ruins.

Of course, what they admired was not the illusory King Arthur of this world...

But rather, they admired the female King Arthur of a parallel world!

That clear heart, bright eyes, and righteous fighting spirit...

Had already captivated countless people.

They were all sick, afflicted with an incurable disease called "King's Poison."

Internet enthusiasts from all over the world gathered, and in their shared excitement, they quickly established the organization "Knights of the Round Table Fan Club." Members must solemnly declare the organization's slogan.

Which is--.

"Where my King's sword points, our hearts shall follow!!"

The cheers were deafening, filled with a passionate sense of unwavering loyalty.

Meanwhile, in the "sun never sets" empire.

A stunning oil painting, signed by "Mashiro Shiina," appeared.

In the painting, the Knight King stood solemnly, inserting the sacred Sword in the Stone into the earth. Her ancient cloak, like a cotton quilt, fluttered in the wind. The majestic Knights of the Round Table guarded her, resolutely standing with their swords drawn.

A touch of red adorned everyone, exuding a sacred aura like the rising sun.

As if infused with a trace of ancient British charm, the expressions of the knights were lifelike.

This painting was soon appreciated and presented to the elegant and noble Queen Elizabeth.

"What a beautiful painting..."

In the British Parliament Hall, Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom exclaimed with admiration.

She reached out and stroked the golden-haired child's head, her gaze towards the painting filled with a hint of amazement, joy, and slight infatuation.

"Little Mashiro, what reward do you desire?"

"Hmm..."

Mashiro Shiina tilted her head.

She painted this work solely to record the majestic figure of that King.

What reward did she want?

She had never thought about it...

"You haven't thought of anything?"

Queen Elizabeth II smiled gently, "You must really like King Arthur, so I'll have the guards take you to the museum to see the Sword in the Stone, which has a long history since ancient times."

"Okay, thank you..."

Mashiro Shiina nodded calmly, feeling a bit of joy in her heart.

Soon, led by the royal personal guards, her figure gradually disappeared...

51. Various Speculations About Merlin, New Work: Moon Coral!

"Woohoo~ Takeoff!"

Outside the courtyard of Happiness Villa, a young man dressed in a moon-white, wide-sleeved robe smiled.

He stood under a beautiful cherry blossom tree, surrounded by scattered flying stars, exuding a hazy and ethereal aura. A gentle breeze blew.

Falling cherry blossoms fluttered, further enhancing his elegant and refined demeanor.

The atmosphere was filled with mystery, profundity, grace, and pure beauty...

The person was like jade, the flowers like falling snow, and the landscape like a painting.

Threads of silver ripples spread, and the status panel appeared with a pleasing leap.

[Creator: Luo Shu]

[Life Level: Heavenly Human Realm (Peak of Early Third Stage)]

[Bloodline: Ancient Red Dragon Thin Bloodline]

[Usable Secret Techniques: Isayama Style Swordsmanship, Isayama Style Magic Compendium, Mana Burst...]

[Theoretical Lifespan: 819.7 years]

[Divine Authority Jade: 6872361.01]

The Sky Screen plan was perfectly implemented, earning six million Divine Authority Jade at light speed!

I've won so much...

I've completely won...

If it weren't for the need to increase the Sky Screen's credibility and recreate Britain's scene above Glastonbury during the "Moon Famous Painting" event, Luo Shu's Divine Authority Jade would have already broken the seven million mark.

However, the cost-effectiveness of this expenditure is extremely high!

After the Glastonbury incident fermented.

The Divine Authority Jade, which had slowed down in its growth rate, shot up into outer space like a rocket...

Especially Merlin's mysterious smile at the end of the mirage.

It was as if he had crossed thousands of years of time, mockingly observing hundreds of thousands of tourists.

Many people were filled with dread.

Netizens frantically typed on their keyboards, some chillingly and passionately stating their analyses.

"What is Merlin smiling about? Is he smiling at the collapse of etiquette and morals in later generations..."

"No, I suspect his smile contains a sense of smugness, a restrained arrogance. This anomaly only occurred after the Sky Screen appeared, and it's very likely that the longer the Sky Screen exists, the more epoch-making events will happen."

"If the stories of parallel worlds become widely known, perhaps Heroic Spirits can descend into our world."

"No, no, no... You're all a bit too imaginative."

"I feel Merlin's smile carries a hint of pity; he's sympathizing with King Arthur."

"That makes sense. Speaking of which, why does Merlin look so handsome when he smiles!"

"Maybe he's a succubus?"

"..."

At first, everyone was speculating whether Merlin had seen the future.

What was the meaning of his mysterious smile, and why did seeing the people of later generations make him want to laugh...

But, this question gradually became absurd.

A female netizen who enjoyed reading CEO romance novels claimed to be a psychology professor from the world-renowned Stanford University. She analyzed every frame and figured out all the emotions contained within Merlin's smile.

Then, she furiously typed on her keyboard and posted a so-called analytical essay.

[He appears to be smiling, but in reality, he is mocking.]

[In his eyes, there is a hint of disdain, two parts coldness, three parts sarcasm, four parts nonchalance, and ninety parts utter contempt, as if he were a god looking down on the world...]

[Because he is dissatisfied with the current treatment of the Celts, he has descended into reality and decided to punish the British.]

"What kind of pie chart is this!"

Many netizens' faces turned black, and they complained fiercely.

Due to the absurdity of this reply and its clickbait title, it immediately drew a torrent of curses.

British netizens were even more vocal in their complaints.

But regardless, Director Luo was quite satisfied and nodded.

You can spout nonsense however you like.

The script you wrote yourself has not a single flaw. As long as you stir up enough hype, more and more people will come to believe in Fate/staynight.

This is all just little money to make myself stronger!

Of course, many people also thought of Merlin, the author of Steel Land on Twitter.

That novel was too bizarre, exuding a creepy aura from its very core.

Not only did it possess a realistic worldview and grand, epic scenes, but it also outlined a soul-stirring story with just a few strokes. While the writing was magnificent and powerful, it didn't lose the delicate emotional portrayal of ordinary people.

The music, text, and illustrations were all exceptionally excellent, immersing people in the story's world.

But, such a precious work of art was free...

Strange.

Too strange.

It was as if this "Steel Land" wasn't a cherished work of art, but a small booklet on fire safety knowledge.

A kind-hearted firefighter was using it to educate the public.

But everyone knew that without several world-class top teams spending months or even years meticulously crafting it, Steel Land absolutely could not have been produced.

If it were truly something created by humans, it would definitely be for profit!

Merlin, the novelist in the real network.

Merlin, the Magus of Flowers in the parallel world.

Could there be some unspeakable connection between the two?

Perhaps...

People held their breath, their spines stiffening, gasping for air in tension.
