lost narrative poem

Chapter 309 Closing

Time seems to have lost its meaning, and it is unclear how long a second is and how short a minute is.

Xia Ran was enduring the feeling brought about by the bad mental shock, feeling that her soul was like a stubborn stone that had fallen into the raging waves, and was being eroded by the terrible tide all the time——

It wasn't any painful and substantive injury and torture, but an unbearable mental torment, as if the rigid thinking couldn't work at all, and the consciousness seemed to be frozen.

I didn't feel any pain from physical injury on my body, and my soul didn't suffer any substantive damage like cruel torture such as tearing and piercing.

It was pure malice that followed the feedback of the ebony blade and hit him like a raging wave——

Loathing, grief, lamentation, loneliness, helplessness, despair, resentment... Countless malice, curses full of venom, thick enough to present a viscous black state like mud, has solidified into substance.

This is the crime of the entire world, and the maliciousness gathered is difficult to calculate. If you insist on finding a unit to describe it, it is probably close to 60 million people.

Because this is "all the evils in this world", that is, all the evils in this world, and in 1994, the total population of the world had reached 56 billion people. Based on such a concept, it is natural to estimate its approximate serving size.

After all, as the concept of the sum 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 it is a pity that Xia Ran did not encounter its trough period, but when it came up, it was a terrifying weight of more than 50 billion people. No one in the world is willing to take the initiative to contaminate this kind of horror.

Gathering all the malice in the world, this curse is like a substance, so heavy that it looks like a mountain or an abyss. It has the most terrible impact on the spiritual thinking. Once it can't hold on, the wall of the heart is broken, and everything will be destroyed to be assimilated.

At that time, there will be nothing left for people. Simply put, they will be digested by the black mud...or they will simply become a part of the black mud, and even their personality and body will become usable. One of the masks or identities.

It was also at this moment that Xia Ran realized clearly that Gilgamesh was definitely not the sin that carried the entire world, that guy would never be able to bear these things, and he definitely did not have such a backbone...

It's like the whole sea is covered with pitch-black ink. If a drop of clear water falls into it, it is absolutely impossible to carry the sea on its back. What kind of golden soul, the weight of the king to carry everything, these are all nonsense.

In this case, what is needed is quantity rather than quality—

If the upper limit of your spiritual will and soul consciousness is more than the evil weight of nearly 60 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 is no different from the black mud, and his own is also the ultimate evil in the world, so there is no need for the black mud to assimilate him, just like a black mud Things can no longer be blacked out.

However, although the current feeling is terrible, Xia Ran can barely hold on, and must hold on.

Because the structure of the "hole" was damaged by the piercing of the ebony blade, it began to become unstable, and now it is disappearing rapidly, and it is about to be completely closed... So he doesn't really need to single out the evil in this world, just need to Just deal with the part that poured out like a waterfall from just now to now.

Well, maybe there is also the part where the magic knife was directly extracted from the "hole" before it was completely closed.

Although it is also a very huge energy, after all, the magic power has been infected with a curse, and it has also turned into pitch-black black mud and turbulent waves, almost destroying half of the city...

This is already quite a majestic wave of energy, but compared to the overall evil in this world, it is still very limited.

At this moment in front of him, the "hole" where the ebony blade was inserted has become the eye of the vortex——

It's like the eye of a huge typhoon, pulling everything around and turning rapidly. The effectiveness of the magic knife is absorbing the black mud crazily, and the malice that pollutes the world is swallowed in it endlessly!

The jet-black mud that flowed out was about to be sucked back, but behind the "hole" that hadn't been completely closed, it was still being continuously drawn by the magic knife and swallowed crazily.

As if the unknown space behind the "hole" is a bottomless pit, no matter how Xia Ran extracts it, the majestic malicious magic power shows no sign of exhaustion.

At the same time, Xia Ran also felt that the ebony blade in his hand seemed to be hot, as if it was overheated. He was like an ordinary person holding an iron sword that was burning red all over.

At the same time, his body was also cracked, and bright red liquid was constantly oozing out, but it was repaired under the power of the scabbard. This was the result of crazily absorbing energy. After all, his body was not a bottomless pit——

Although it is the nature of a gambler that a lost person can never get rid of, which makes him take risks with the idea of ​​getting a handful of wool at the end, but in the end, he must 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 treasure in the magic field, and it can be regarded as the last insurance.

The reminder of the space kept ringing in his consciousness, as if he was frantically swiping the screen very frequently, but at this time, he had no extra mood to check one by one, because without exception, they were all in the remind him—

Because of the feedback of the energy-absorbing effect of the ebony blade, he gained a free attribute point...

Every time a notification sounds, it basically represents the acquisition of a point, but there is no time to distribute it for the time being.

Because all his energy and mind are now used to resist the spiritual impact of the black mud that came back together.

Soon... Soon... The magic channel will be closed...

Die... Die... Terrible malice gathered into a curse, crazily pounding his spirit...

Under such circumstances, he can only get rid of all distracting thoughts, concentrate on strengthening his will over and over again, and give self-suggestions to his spirit over and over again, making his heart as hard as a stone.

……

……

I don't know how long it has passed, it's hard to say whether it was a long time or a short time, and finally the "hole" in the sky disappeared, and the black mud stopped gushing out.

Even the part that was poured out before was cleaned up, but the neighborhood of the civil hall on the Xindu side has been destroyed and burned most of the area, leaving only flames and ruins.

The cold snowy night seemed to be completely unaffected. Under the bright moonlight, crystal snowflakes were still slowly falling, and would soon cover up all traces of uncleanness and sin on the earth.

When Xia Ran landed slowly, she first staggered a bit, as if she couldn't stand steadily, she wobbled a bit before standing still.

"Master, are you alright?" The knight girl who rushed over hurriedly supported him nervously.

Even if she didn't talk about the promise she made before, she would never break her vow easily, and the many things she experienced tonight were enough to make her feel a lot better about this magician.

"This matter... is it over?"

"Is it?... Is it temporarily over?"

Xia Ran also thought about it with some uncertainty, then raised the magic knife that was still humming excitedly in his hand and looked at it, and couldn't help sighing.

"In fact, it can only be said that it is a temporary solution, 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 directly to solve the Great Holy Grail?" Saber asked seriously and earnestly.

As a perfect knight who has experienced many battles, as a perfect king who will last forever, she knows that this time is definitely not a time for sorrow and grief, even though she does feel sad for Alice Viel who has passed away. .

But crying and screaming here with tears is definitely not her style, nor does it have any effect.

The Holy Grail is no longer available, and the meaning of continuing to pursue it has also been lost, but at least these repeated tragedies must be resolved, and they cannot be allowed to happen again... Saber looked around subconsciously.

The flames and ruins, as far as the eye can see, are in the same way for hundreds of kilometers around. It is almost like the scene of the end of the world, and it looks empty and desolate.Whether it was the gleaming golden sword Ea before, or the sword of the vowed victory she liberated before, they all blew away the surrounding streets and blocks.

Roads, buildings, street lamps, etc., all seemed to be made of paper, and they were wiped out in an instant under the sweep of the terrifying treasures. Coupled with the burning of the scorching curse brought by the black mud just now, the people's hall is now The surrounding area is beyond recognition, full of devastation, basically only leaving empty ruins as wide as an airplane taxiing runway.

If the residents nearby hadn't been evacuated in advance, this place would be the most tragic hell.

Therefore, although there is no reason to continue to pursue the Holy Grail, at least this problem must be solved... Normal people will not think that those black muds are good things, and she feels that she has no way to pretend that she has not seen the Great Holy Grail question.

The girl clenched the golden holy sword in her hand.

This fierce and clear light once illuminated the darkness of the chaotic world, which was deeper than night, suppressed the chaotic world, brought order out of chaos, and led the people to an unprecedented prosperity when the country was about to collapse, creating the most talked about era of chivalry.

She has also always adhered to the spirit of chivalry, and she is proud to uphold this will, and it is righteous to implement 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, all of this is due to this reason.

"I think so too, but I don't think I have time..." Xia Ran twitched her mouth, looked away, and sat down on the spot in a nonchalant manner, as if she was adjusting her state.

His stay time is now showing a question mark, but you don't need to look at it to know it. When it shows a specific time, it is estimated to be cleared directly, and he may not have a few minutes left to stay.

But think about it——

Gilgamesh, who was able to survive ten years later, died, and Kotomine Kirei, who could also survive ten years later, also died. In addition, Emiya Kiritsugu also died. It is estimated that Emiya Shirou also died. gone...

——After all, Fuyuki City was not destroyed by a fire in the new capital, and Emiya Shirou would not be rescued from the disaster. Of course, it does not mean that Emiya Shirou is dead, but that the child who should have become Emiya Shirou is not Will encounter another disaster, and then be adopted by Emiya Kiritsugu.

There were not too many casualties of innocent citizens in Fuyuki City tonight. Even if they continue to use the "gas explosion" as an excuse tomorrow, it can be explained.

"Wait, Master, why do you say there is no time? Although the Holy Grail is gone, the end of the Holy Grail War should be conditional on the victory of the last group of people, right?"

Artoria's expression changed slightly, she stared closely at the magician in front of her, and lowered her voice nervously: "Could it be that you...you were seriously injured just now? You can't hold on anymore...but Avalon It's on your body..."

"It's not an injury, although I'm in a bad state right now..." Xia Ran shook her head, "But it's probably the reason why I can't hold on anymore. My stay in this world has reached its limit."

"...What do you mean?" Saber looked at him in astonishment.

"Literally, you can understand it this way. I am not from this world. My time to appear in this world has run out, and I will disappear from this world next..." Xia Ran thought for a while and gave such an answer.

"..."

"..."

The expression of the King of Knights suddenly became very exciting, and she felt that she was not good: "So, it means that you, Master, are...really a Servant?"

What the hell is going on with this man?Is he a puff pastry? !

"Your comprehension ability, well, it can't be wrong... huh?"

Xia Ran was still in the mood to joke, but at this moment, he seemed to have noticed something, and turned his head to look at the flames and ruins in the distance——

"Kariya seems to have brought Berserker over to support him. It should be Caster's suggestion, right? But just in time, Saber, would you like to take advantage of this last time to settle personal grievances with him?"
