Chapter 121 Bloodstained Wei Yuanchuan
Chapter 121 Bloodstained Wei Yuanchuan
"Tsk, what a disgusting piece of trash."
The endless treasures contained within the Gate of Babylon acted like a sharp cutting machine, instantly cleaving the monster's body in two. The dark red blood gushing from its body rapidly spread, staining the surrounding sea like a pool of blood, a horrifying sight.
Even so, the exposed flesh began to surge wildly, and even eyes grew out of the flesh, those eyes turning greedily, peering at the outside world.
This disgusting scene makes one frown, and one's SAN value drops drastically.
Immediately afterwards, the separated flesh began to stick back together little by little. The monster, which had clearly been split in two, showed signs of complete recovery in just a short while.
Faced with this scene, Gilgamesh didn't even want the various weapons and treasures he had just launched, and generously threw them all into the sea of the Weiyuan River.
"This guy's regenerative ability is too amazing. At this rate, we simply won't be able to defeat Caster." Diarmuid, who was observing the battle from the beach, said solemnly to Irisviel beside him.
Now, due to the monsters' super regenerative abilities, King Arthur and King Conqueror, who are on the front lines, are beginning to exhaust themselves. The monsters' regeneration depends on Caster's magic power, and Caster, being a "mage" class, has the highest magic power among all the Servants present.
Looking at Saber and Rider, their magical power depends on their Masters. Saber's true Master, Kiritsugu Emiya, can only be described as having strong physical strength, but not much magical power. Rider's Master, Waver, was just a student at the Tower of Time before.
"Wow, amazing! Wow, amazing! My lord, the Lord is with me!" Faced with the monster that made everyone solemn, there was one person whose behavior was completely different from everyone else's.
He is none other than Caster's Master, Ryunosuke Uryu, who is also a deranged serial killer. Ryunosuke Uryu is currently standing on the bridge, shouting excitedly, seemingly completely immersed in his own world.
"Heh, even if they are trash, they were once renowned powerhouses, yet now they are all powerless against that disgusting thing. It's truly pathetic." Gilgamesh said to Yu Bai while sitting on the aircraft, propping his head up with one hand.
"Ah, after all, it's Caster. If we're talking about a protracted battle, Saber and Rider's mana consumption might not be as high as Caster's."
"Tsk, this filthy creature, I have no heart to fight anymore. My dear friend, let's go." Gilgamesh's tone was full of disgust. He had originally looked forward to fighting alongside his best friend again, but this disgusting monster in front of him completely killed his interest.
There's no other reason than that it was so disgusting and filthy that it triggered a certain Gilgamesh's mysophobia.
"King of Heroes, please wait..." Seeing that Gilgamesh really intended to turn around and leave, Tokiomi Tohsaka became a little anxious and quickly spoke up to try to keep the King of Heroes from leaving.
But Gilgamesh wouldn't listen to him. Before Tokiomi could finish speaking, he interrupted him, saying, "Tokiomi, I've already thrown away so many Noble Phantasms because of my dear friend, and they've been contaminated by that filth. I have no intention of taking them back. But don't think that I would use the Gate of Babylon on that monster again because of anyone else."
“Even if his regenerative ability is strong, as long as he is completely destroyed with one attack, only you, the King of Heroes, can do that, only your Ea…” Tokiomi Tohsaka said again. You must know that this time a Heroic Spirit will definitely kill Caster, and this will ultimately determine which Master can obtain the extra Command Seals.
Regardless, Tokiomi Tohsaka had to try for the Command Seals, after all, he knew the King of Heroes' strength. And with those extra Command Seals, he would now possess three complete Command Seals. But after obtaining the Holy Grail, he could use all three Command Seals at once, even against the King of Heroes with his A-rank Magic Resistance…
"Enough! You mean you want me to draw the supreme treasure 'E A' right here and recognize your identity, Tokiomi! How dare you utter such nonsense to the king? I think you have a death wish!" Gilgamesh was furious when he heard that Tokiomi Tohsaka actually wanted him to use the strongest supreme treasure, Ea, to deal with that disgusting monster.
"……Yes."
Can the King of Heroes defeat Caster? There's no doubt he can, of course he can. But the King of Heroes is a germaphobe. If it weren't for his best friend, Gilgamesh wouldn't have even opened the Gate of Babylon.
Although Tokiomi Tohsaka possesses Command Seals that allow him to directly command Gilgamesh to slay monsters, such an action would undoubtedly damage their cooperative relationship and could even lead to a break, something Tokiomi Tohsaka is unwilling to see. After all, he had already used a precious Command Seal to evacuate the enraged Gilgamesh from the docks, and now he only has two left.
He and Father Kotomine planned this drama of defeating Caster, originally to replenish the Command Seals he had lost.
Despite their careful planning, they overlooked the temperament of the Hero King.
However, it's not impossible to get this king to slay the demon, as long as... the green-haired boy beside him speaks up. Tokiomi Tohsaka naturally knew this, so his gaze turned to the white figure floating in the air.
Sensing Tokiomi Tohsaka's calculating gaze, Yu Bai immediately understood his intentions. However, at this moment, Yu Bai harbored no goodwill towards Tokiomi Tohsaka; in fact, he found fault with him in every way.
Because, although the final answer was not found in the documents, it is not difficult for someone who has lived three lives and has now become a god to slowly deduce the final result from the records in the documents.
Yu Bai had recently deduced the hidden condition in Tokiomi Tohsaka's so-called wish to achieve the root of magic: the lives of seven Heroic Spirits as the price. So how could Tokiomi Tohsaka, who possessed the powerful King of Heroes as a Heroic Spirit, kill all seven Heroic Spirits?
If Gilgamesh were to slay the last remaining Heroic Spirits one by one, he could certainly do so with his power. However, this would leave Gilgamesh alone in the end. So, how could Tokiomi Tohsaka, an ordinary magician, kill the King of Heroes he himself summoned?
So the only option is...
Thinking of this, Yu Bai turned his gaze to the back of Tohsaka Tokiomi's right hand, which was hanging down at his side. The three red Command Seals for the "Archer" class were clearly visible on his arm, although one of the patterns had faded.
When the time comes, if Tokiomi Tohsaka wants to dedicate the life of the last Heroic Spirit to the Holy Grail, then he has one method: to use a Command Spell to order Gilgamesh, the "King of Heroes," to commit suicide.
In other words, Tokiomi Tohsaka summoned the King of Heroes from the very beginning with the intention of killing Gilgamesh.
Tokiomi Tohsaka, you're really something.
This discovery stirred a chilling killing intent within Yu Bai. His green eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light gleamed in his eyes, hidden beneath his long eyelashes.
"Hmm?" Gilgamesh, who had keenly sensed the fleeting killing intent in his best friend's eyes, looked at Yu Bai with some confusion, but out of complete trust in his best friend, he didn't ask any questions.
Even worse, if Gilgamesh knew that his best friend's murderous intent was directed at his current Master, the King of Heroes would probably be very happy to tie Tokiomi Tohsaka up and send him directly to his best friend.
……
Yu Bai: Tokiomi Tohsaka actually wanted Gilles to commit suicide. Why don't you, Prophet, just kill him?
Gilgamesh: (After learning of Yu Bai's thoughts, he happily delivers Tokiomi Tohsaka to Yu Bai himself.) My dear friend, have you finally come to your senses? You don't need to lift a finger, I'll bring it to you!
