239 The Purification Ritual Begins
Holding her hands on her chest, like a girl praying, Ilia sang a spell in her mouth, and under the whirl of magical wind, it was like a beautiful picture.
With the right time and place, the Holy Grail purification ceremony officially began.
The mantras sung by Ilia were compiled by Orange Aozaki. Editing mantras is an extremely profound science, involving many knowledge and concepts of various meanings such as astrology, theology, and symbols.
However, there is no definition that must be strictly followed. After all, the meaning of singing spells is actually more of an auxiliary casting and helping to start the magic basic plate.
The switch that really starts the purification ceremony is still the will of the little holy grail represented by Ilia herself.
Ilia herself is the little holy grail, and she and the Great Holy grail in Touki City are connected to each other. At the same time, the core of the Great Holy grail is actually the third magic envoy, the Saint of Dong, who is the ancestor of Ilia's bloodline.
Therefore, Ilia's own will is the core and key of this Holy Grail purification ceremony.
The Black Dragon defeated all other competitors, and the remaining Lords were his subordinates, so he already had the qualifications to obtain ownership of the Holy Grail. At this time, with the transmission of Ilia's own will, with the help of the magic array engraved in advance, Ilia's will was correctly transmitted.
Finally, under the anticipation of Black Dragon and others, the Great Holy Grail finally responded.
A deep hole suddenly appeared in the air hundreds of meters, and then all the wishes like meteors gathered in it like stars in all directions.
Due to the coverage of the great magic ritual, the body of the Holy Grail is located in the space of a different dimension, and it is difficult for ordinary magicians to reach that field. However, with the opening of the purification ceremony, the Great Holy Grail has finally slowly begun to show some of its true appearance.
As the Holy Grail Hole appeared, the purification ceremony officially began, and then countless black liquids, like sludge, continued to flow out of the holes.
"Is this... this thing... the dark side of the Holy Grail?"
Tosaka Rin looked up at the sky, looking at the dirty black liquid full of unknown aura, and just glanced at it, you could feel that it seemed to be filled with countless dark curses.
Originally, the liquids in the Holy Grail were actually pure magic power accumulated over the years. As the driving force for activate the third method, they themselves are pure magic aggregates without any properties.
But with the influence of the curse entangled in Angora Manuel's soul, it is now all contaminated into a disaster like the "evil of this world".
Faced with such a dark holy grail, even if the mechanism and ability to realize the wishes still exist, the way they realize their wishes will definitely be realized in the most evil and darkest way.
Just like the desire of Kiritsugu Emiya to save all mankind was twisted into something that as long as there are only a very small number of controllable remaining human beings, then the so-called all mankind can be truly saved.
Kiritsugu Emiya's original wish was to save all mankind, but the result was that he almost destroyed the entire human society. Therefore, he finally chose to destroy the Holy Grail in his collapse.
But unfortunately, he was too ignorant and knew nothing about the essence of the Holy Grail. He only destroyed the small Holy Grail transformed by Alice Phil, but did not damage the essence of the Great Holy Grail. Therefore, the fourth time was the remnant of the Holy Grail War, but it was left to the fifth Holy Grail War.
Seeing the unknown black mud flowing from the sky, Rin Tosaka almost felt numb and her whole body was trembling with goose bumps.
"This is the Holy Grail we once wanted to pursue. If the Holy Grail is really this kind of thing, I won't want it even if I beat it to death!"
Ilia was also extremely shocked, and at the same time she was extremely complicated. In order to achieve the so-called redemption of all mankind, their Einzberen family made so much sacrifices for this. Generations of man-made people have been constantly sacrificing for this idea, and the end result was this.
This is simply the greatest irony of God. The original merciful wish to save all mankind almost turned into a vicious curse to destroy mankind. The meaning it represents is simply heartbreaking.
As for Artoria, there is no need to say anything. Seeing the real appearance of the Holy Grail, I almost vomited out disgustingly.
A king like her who was as noble as a knight, thought that the Holy Grail that she had given up everything and wanted to seize was such a dirty and evil existence, and she almost felt a little bad.
Seeing the hideous appearance of the Dark Holy Grail, almost everyone present was very complicated in their hearts.
Fortunately, there is still room for recovery in everything. According to previous research on the Holy Grail system, as long as the Holy Grail purification ceremony can proceed smoothly, the Holy Grail here will definitely restore its original appearance and function.
"Very good, it's about to start!"
Watching the magic arrays being lit one by one, this means that the Holy Grail purification ceremony and the original hidden functions of the Holy Grail itself are being activated one by one.
"Sister Orange, and Fujino-chan, you two take Rin, Sakura, Iriya and the others back. Next, this place will become a battlefield. Don't be caught in, and don't let people outside break into this place and destroy the ritual."
These are things that have been discussed before. Compared with Heilong and others, their strength is too far from the level of heroic spirits. If they stay, they will not only not be able to obtain help, but may even become a drag.
Therefore, it directly pushed down the scope covered by the large magic array, while paying attention to the progress of the purification ceremony and preventing people from coming in and disturbing them outside. This is more suitable for the five of them.
Just like Asakusaki No and Aozaki Orange, although they also have extremely strong combat power in theory, they are actually not suitable to participate in such battles.
As soon as the people left behind outside need someone to protect them, after all, they are not relieved to leave the three little ones outside. Another thing is that their bodies are too fragile.
Although Aozaki Orange could be resurrected after her death, Black Dragon was still worried about accidents. The most important thing is that her physical fitness is only at the level of an ordinary person.
The same is true for Asakusa Tengno. Although her "distorted demonic eye" is powerful, her physical fitness is too weak, and it is far from being a hero incarnation, so she can only stay outside. After all, she is still needed when she is alerting her.
However, as the incarnation of heroic spirit, Asakami Fujino has no concerns in this regard. Although it represents the same existence, as the incarnation of heroic spirit, her physical fitness is extraordinary.
As the great magic array of the purification ceremony was fully opened, the Holy Grail purification ceremony officially began. It was like an invisible big hand. The darkness and curse power in the black mud of the Holy Grail were all extracted and condensed like black smoke.
Then the hidden mechanism of the Holy Grail was activated, and the battle for the Holy Grail between the Red and Black sides began.
Accompanied by the white light that soared into the sky, the black light that could not be melted was already rich, causing a violent energy storm like an earthquake.
When the storm subsided, the Red Party, the Black Dragon, the Two Rituals, Rivia, Artoria, Victoria, Medea, Medusa, Asakusa Fujino, Ryu, Ace, and Bazette, stood next to the Black Dragon in turn.
