lost narrative poem

Chapter 730
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the big stomach king competition held in the seaside park came to a successful conclusion, probably because a certain invincible king of knights did not participate, so there was not much to watch, and there was no suspense. reverse.

The person who won the final victory was the same player that the people of Fuyuki City who didn't know the inside story were optimistic about from the beginning.

It was a burly man with a height of more than [-] meters and a body as strong as a bear. He looked particularly edible. The onlookers naturally embraced such a seeded player who seemed to have an amazing advantage. High expectations, and this player has indeed lived up to expectations——

Because he is not a pure human being, and under the great pressure and fear given by a certain magician, he is also like other contestants who are forced to participate, thinking wildly, thinking that if he can't win, it may be the end of death, so The potential exploded, and he forced the audience to overwhelm the audience at the risk of dying!
——As a result, it put a lot of pressure on the other contestants.

The other contestants all had despair in their eyes, and also forced themselves to stuff food into their mouths desperately. If they couldn't eat more, they would try their best to stuff it down, but even if they all fell on the table in the end, they were still pulled away. The huge gap visible to the naked eye is an advantage that they can't even equal if they die.

But this process is still very interesting, at least the citizens of Fuyuki watched it very happily, cheering and applauding constantly, and trying their best to cheer for the contestants they fancy.

What's more, although being a small seaside town, Fuyuki City does not have the high-end facilities like the local TV station, but there are still newspapers and so on, and reporters have been sent to interview now, and they have recorded this in detail. event.

"...Congratulations, Guobite, you have won the final victory!"

Before the podium, Xia Ran looked at the two-meter-tall man in front of him with a strange expression, which made the latter uneasy, but in the end he didn't say anything, but nodded and directly He reached out and took the trophy from the high platform next to him, and handed it to the other party with both hands.

He originally expected to see some people who he had some impressions to participate in the competition. It would be better to have some fun for himself, but he didn't know if those people were too vigilant or didn't realize the seriousness of the matter at all. Did not appear here in the seaside park.

Probably not even knowing what happened, while they were running around like headless chickens, while some are still in prison, the Holy Grail has been given out as a prize through an inexplicable competition ...

Of course, it's not a big problem. After they discover the Holy Grail, they will naturally continue to fight more fiercely. The appearance of the first Holy Grail is just the beginning, not the end.

So Xia Ran thought about it, and then simply handed out the trophy, since it's worthless anyway.

"Really, can you give it to me?"

The whole person couldn't bear it anymore, and the giant man who could barely stand up straight was stunned.

He looked at the "trophy" shining brightly in front of his eyes, shining golden light under the slanting sunlight, swallowed hard, and asked in disbelief.

He originally thought that he had won the final victory, at best he was spared his life, and he was not sure if he could be spared. Maybe the other party was cruel and wanted to use these methods to torture them and watch them go from life to death. What about the transition from hope to despair?

Not the only winner is going to die...

Even the only victor will die...

Even if only the only victor will die...

These are all possible, and he just chose the most likely way of life according to common sense. As for whether he can escape, it still depends on the mood of the person in front of him.

It's not that I didn't think about resisting, but just like everyone else, I still didn't act in the end.Because he didn't dare, he never thought that there was such a terrifying existence in this world. It seemed ordinary, but as long as he had the mental awareness of confrontation, he would immediately feel the oppression of the other party like a god and demon.

It was far deeper than the abyss, far larger than the celestial bodies, and far beyond the scale of the earthly world, as if the whole world was revolving around each other.

The shock and shock were indescribable. They even doubted whether this previously unheard-of magician was a human, or a native species on Earth, or an alien supreme life form from other celestial bodies. ?

It is precisely because only when they face the universe directly can they experience their own insignificance, so they immediately understand the fact that they and others are nothing but dust, so no one dares to make mistakes, they can only tremble and suffer, hoping to get The sympathy of the great existence, the small net is lenient.

However, I never expected happiness to come so suddenly——

The two-meter-two giant man named Guo Bit stretched out his hands, trembling in disbelief, and took the "trophy" awarded by the weird existence in front of him who seemed to be in human form and pretended to be a magician. In an instant, I could definitely feel the majestic magic power contained in it.

Unfathomable, profound and unpredictable, so huge that it far exceeds the "limit" that his perception can barely sense.

Holy Grail...

The Holy Grail, which is said to be able to fulfill all wishes, was really obtained by him just like that?Or did you win it in such a playful and funny way?
Guo Bit's face flushed abnormally, and his brain felt dizzy for a while. He doubted whether all this was real, but Xia Ran didn't care what he was thinking, just turned around and clapped his hands, as if I am very happy to announce that the competition has ended successfully, and others can receive different rewards.

The other contestants were already desperate, almost waiting to be killed, hoping to give them a good time, but when they heard this, they were ashamed and ecstatic.

It seems that even if you don't win the game, you don't have to apologize with death?And there are also rewards. It's really like what was said when I first signed up, even if I just participated, there will be a consolation prize for the bottom of the final ranking?

But the consolation prize is nothing worth mentioning, just a symbolic small bonus in yen-no one has yet discovered the importance of this legal way of getting money.

So after realizing that he and others were let off lightly, and realized that this is indeed a game of that weird existence, and that "he" or "it" didn't care about the Holy Grail at all, a group of miscellaneous fish suddenly became active up.

It's really mine...

The giant man on the other side was so excited that his body was shaking. He originally planned to fish in the troubled waters of this extreme east, to see if he could follow those giant meat eaters, drink some soup or find some leftovers. The benefits, but before the day has passed, I have already obtained the source of magic power?

Sure enough, is he destined to be the protagonist of this era?
But he immediately seemed to remember something, looked around vigilantly, firmly grasped the golden cup in his hand, and thought about the next final question, that is, how should he get out of here safely and keep the source of magic power safe? take away!

Many people have already cast extremely greedy gazes, all of which are green without exception, expressing the meaning of "can you let me touch your trophy" very vividly.

It's just that a certain weird existence is still present at this moment, so no one dares to mess around. After all, although the latter is just watching with a smile as if he didn't realize it, no one thinks that "he" or "it" is real. I don't know...

It's just that the giant man also knows that how to safely take away his reward in the future is definitely a problem.

"Hey! You, you really gave them the Holy Grail just like that?"

At this time, Tohsaka Rin, who was planning to watch with a cold eye and never expressed his opinion, finally couldn't help it, and quietly held back the magician who seemed to have no intention of doing anything at all, but was watching the crowd gradually disperse with a smile. sleeve, asked eagerly.

Could this guy be playing for real?Is this too childish?

"Otherwise, the process of the competition is obvious to all, and the rules are clearly stated at the very beginning. I have always been fair and open, so naturally I will not break my promise..." Xia Ran said as a matter of course.

Then, he looked at the girl's tangled expression, and immediately showed an expression of "I understand", reached out and patted Tohsaka Rin's shoulder, and said in a serious and old-fashioned tone:
"There's nothing you can do about it, Tohsaka, who told you that you didn't participate in the first place? You didn't even sign up. Even if I wanted to give you the green light, it would be very difficult for me..."

"Who told you this! Now I don't want the Holy Grail at all!"

The black-haired girl patted his arm away with a look of disgust, and pushed her shoulder vigorously——

"I mean, even if you don't care about it at all, and you don't think there is anything precious about this broken cup, at least you have to think about sending it out like this, maybe... it might have an impact on this world, right? "

Although Tohsaka Rin has now understood that the Holy Grail is not omnipotent, perhaps in the eyes of ordinary magicians, this is indeed the omnipotent cauldron that can realize wishes, the legendary wishing machine, but in the eyes of truly wise people Come on, this is just a one-time-use magic accelerator.

Speed ​​up the process of things that are already possible, and get the result directly, but the impossible things are still impossible.

As for the person in front of him, the Holy Grail is really completely useless, not even the accelerator.After all, he can rub the Holy Grail with his hands at will, so if he can't achieve the goal with his own strength, it is absolutely impossible to say that he can achieve it by pinching the Holy Grail with his own strength.

But, how many existences of his height can exist in this world?

Even if it is a limited wish machine, it is still a wish machine. The magic power that is so huge that it can distort the world can still easily cause destructive effects on various phenomena in the human world. This is beyond doubt... Tohsaka Rin is worried Exactly that.

And this person said before that he is going to release more than one Holy Grail...

A child's play to the extreme, just grab a few people to make up the number, and start the competition directly. The winner can directly reward a Holy Grail. No matter how suspicious Tohsaka Rin was before, he must be shocked now.She couldn't imagine how many Holy Grails would be handed down after this time.

"Don't worry, everything actually has two sides, it just depends on which angle you look at it from." The magician chuckled, seeing the girl's worries and anxiety, and also understood why the other party wanted to It's something he likes to stop this kind of thing.

Although Tohsaka Rin lost his father when he was young, it is hard to say whether it is good or bad.

After all, the vast majority of magicians are heretics without humanity. Basically, as long as they come from a well-known magic family with normal inheritance, most of the magicians who grew up with orthodox teachings are like this.After all, for the inheritance of magic, "succession" is the most important thing, and everything else can be discarded instead.

However, because Tosaka Tokiomi died too early, Tosaka Rin didn't really understand this. Although he didn't leave the magic way because of the magician's inhumanity, he didn't become a "perfect" and "cold" witch, but grew up. For not bad quality.

"What two-sidedness, can it be said that this kind of thing can become a good thing if you look at it from another angle?" Tohsaka Rin didn't notice the love and admiration for him in the other party's eyes at all, just gritted his teeth and asked.

She noticed that the guy named Guo Bit was about to leave, and the other contestants found that no one seemed to deal with them, and they were just about to move, and if they didn't stop it, it would be too late.

"The emergence of nuclear weapons has indeed intensified the dangers in the world, but judging from the results, it has brought peace to mankind..." Xia Ran said slowly, "As for the impact on the whole world Kind of like this, you're overthinking this, isn't the event this time held within the scope of Fuyuki City?"

"Can't they leave here?" The black-haired girl was a little anxious.

"Then do you think they can leave here?" Xia Ran asked back with a strange expression, isn't this question a little silly?

"..."

"..."

The black-haired girl with two ponytails was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized that the entire Fuyuki City is now isolated from the outside world by the magic storm, and she can only enter but not exit, in order to save the victims who gathered from all over the world. How could it be possible to let these people leave so easily.

In other words, no matter how much trouble they make, the scope is only limited to Fuyuki City, and it will not affect the outside world at all.

She hesitated for a moment, seemed to think of something, and asked tentatively, "What if they have the Holy Grail?"

"If they are willing to use the holy grail that they have finally obtained to make such a wish, then they can go out naturally. I am not a devil..." the magician blinked and said innocently.

There is no such thing as an absolute path, and a well-meaning person like him will naturally be lenient and give people a chance. It is absolutely impossible to say that things will be done absolutely.

"..."

"..."

Tohsaka Rin's eyes looking at Xia Ran began to look strange. If this guy is not a devil, then the concept of hell does not exist in the world.

It's like a group of mercenaries participating in wars for money, working crazily and desperately, and finally got a lot of money, and then found that they can't take the money back to enjoy it, because if they want to leave the battlefield, they have to pay the money. big money...

Empty-handed white wolves also have to teach the Basic Law, right?

……

……

Hyatt Hotel Fuyuki City, the top 32nd floor.

The girl with indifferent expression and seemingly inhumane body was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows looking down, overlooking the bustling city.

Bathermelo Lorelei, young queen from the Clocktower, contemporary head of the famous Barthumero.

Serving as the assistant to the dean of the clock tower, he is also the current Marshal of Demon Dao.Although she has not yet reached the realm of magic, she is known as the "highest modern magician" for her talent crystallization equivalent to a magic miracle-magic circuit, which is far superior to her predecessors.

Hearing the opening of the door of the room behind her, the young lady who is at the pinnacle of contemporary magicians asked without looking back:
"How is it? Have you found any trace of Authenroche?"

"Please forgive me, we haven't found the whereabouts of the dead king yet..." The subordinate replied respectfully, "However, we have confirmed the activities of a large number of vampires, and the choral team is conducting further confirmation."

"Follow your steps, Altenroche will definitely appear..." Lorelai said indifferently, "I hope this time I can appreciate the distressed look of that vampire screaming in despair."

"Yes, it will be as you wish."

"So—is there anything else?"

"..."

"..."

"Yes, yes, although we haven't confirmed it yet, it is said that...the Holy Grail has appeared, not long ago." The person behind hesitated, and spoke boldly.

"Huh? The ceremonies of those families really succeeded?" Lorelai was a little surprised, "Is the Holy Grail War over? The fighting between the heroic spirits has been completed, so the Holy Grail can come successfully?"

She also just arrived in Fuyuki City, so she doesn't know exactly what happened in the city before her arrival, so she can only speculate like this.

"No, it is said that it is a prize for a big eater competition sponsored by Matou's company. The winner ate nearly fifty hamburgers within an hour, and then won the Holy Grail..."

The subordinate said more and more quietly: "As for those heroic spirits, we haven't confirmed their information yet, but we have found three records so far, which are about the three heroic spirits who were arrested by the Fuyuki City police and then released on bail..."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little weird.
