Across the heavens, I am the Avatar Sword Master

In the deep and infinite starry sky on the login interface, a bridge composed of countless stars stretches across the sky.

It has no physical support or structure, but uses starlight as bricks and galaxies as links to construct an existence that transcends the material world.

Standing in front of the new starry sky door, Chen Yu looked at the prompt bar in front of the door.

【Welcome to "Xingyue's Magic World"! 】

[Push this door open, and you will play the role of a mysterious magician's apprentice, heading to Fuyuki City to participate in the tense and exciting Holy Grail War]

【yes/no】

Chen Yu knew that the definition of magic in the Xingyue world was different from other worlds.

From the perspective of Xingyue magicians, magic is a general term for behaviors that artificially reproduce mysteries and miracles.

No matter how incredible and mysterious the phenomenon is, as long as it happens naturally, it is not magic.

If human technology can achieve this in this era, it will be classified as "magic".

What is impossible in this era is "magic".

Before humans learned to drill wood to make fire, flames were the embodiment of magic in people's eyes.

When humans discovered that friction and hitting with wood and stone could produce flames, flames were downgraded to magic.

Therefore, in the very ancient times, when human technology was not yet enlightened, it can be said that magic everywhere was magic.

But with the rise of technology, humans can do more and more things using technology, so there are only five magic items left.

The third piece of magic, the technology of soul materialization, is the starting condition for a certain "miracle".

This "miracle" is called the Holy Grail War, a large-scale magic ritual that claims to be a "miracle" that can grant all wishes.

On the surface, it is the Holy Grail that appears in Fuyuki City on a 60-year cycle. It is said to have the power to "make any wish come true immediately."

In fact, the so-called wishing machine is just a trick to trick foreign magicians. Its fundamental purpose is to use the souls of fallen heroes to open and fix the "passage to the outside of the world" - the root.

Entering the "source" is the destination of all magicians. It is considered to be "the beginning and end of all things, the seat of God that records everything in this world, and makes everything in this world" located outside the world.

However, the reason why he was not deceived by the magician is that in the eyes of the magicians, the Holy Grail War overflowed a huge amount of magic power, and for the magicians, almost all wishes can be realized.

Of course, the Holy Grail has been contaminated in the Third Holy Grail War, so after making a wish, it will be fulfilled through evil methods.

For example, Emiya Kiritsugu's desire to eliminate evil is understood to mean destroying all mankind, fulfilling the winner's wish in a twisted way.

But in Chen Yu's view, even if the Holy Grail is not contaminated as a wishing machine, the wishes that can be realized are very limited.

Even this thing is not as useful as Dragon Ball.

Chen Yu put his hand on his chin and began to recall the animations he had watched about the "Fate" series.

Since it is confirmed that the war is taking place in Fuyuki City, it is not known whether it is the Fourth Holy Grail War or the Fifth Holy Grail War.

Although both took place in Fuyuki City, there was a ten-year gap.

And there are many branches to the Fifth Holy Grail War.

According to the different choices of the protagonist Shirou Emiya, there will be three different routes. Not only the Fate line - the continuation of the dream, but also the hf line and ubw line, and even the timeline of the extra "Magical Girl Illya".

Just relying on this simple text description, Chen Yu was not sure which timeline the world he was going to go to was.

But it doesn’t matter, playing games, the important thing is to have fun.

Aside from the Holy Grail War, Chen Yu is still very interested in the magic of the Xingyue world.

In order to prevent the system from cheating him again, Chen Yu decisively turned on the magic shield in advance and took out the Nimbus 2000 from the Chensong Pot just in case.

Looking at the constantly rotating Starry Sky Gate, Chen Yu stepped in without hesitation.

Pushing open the starlight door, there was a familiar feeling of inhalation.

Then a system prompt sounded in my ears.

【Welcome to "Xingyue's Magic World". 】

[The game is loading...]

[Detected that the player already has a game character]

[Game characters loading...]

[Scene loading...]

It was the same old routine. After being sucked into the starry sky gate again, he came to a pure white and flawless place. Chen Yu was still surrounded by the endless feeling of falling.

The first time was familiar, the second time was familiar, and now it was the third time. Holding the broomstick, the falling feeling from his body could no longer make Chen Yu panic.

[Game characters loaded]

[Scene loading completed]

[Warning: This game is a completely open free-style game, please be careful with every decision you make]

[Warning: Players are advised to pay attention to the physical condition of the character at all times. The character is the same as the player's real body, and there are fatigue, hunger, disease and even death]

[Warning: The death of the player character means the game is over]

[Wish players a happy game! 】

After the system was loaded, Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief again when he looked at the red steel bridge under his feet.

There was nothing wrong with the system this time.

The routine of starting with residual health and quickly landing a box is no longer popular, right?

Stand on the top of the bridge and look down.

The bridge was busy with traffic, cars were coming and going, and it looked like a bustling scene.

I just don’t know how many people here will have the courage to drive across the bridge at night to witness the war between heroic spirits after the “gas explosion” incident occurred in a few days.

When Chen Yu opened the task panel and was about to check what tasks the system had released, he found that the task bar was actually a bunch of garbled characters.

"What the hell is this?"

Is the system in trouble again?

Chen Yu was about to complain when he noticed that the surrounding environment began to twitch abnormally.

The movement patterns of stars in the sky are completely reversed.

The sun rises in the west, the bright moon rises in the west, the stars rotate, and day and night rotate.

The ships passing by the Weiyuan River at their feet quickly backed up.

The vehicles passing under the Fuyuki Bridge also quickly backed up.

The buildings in Miyama Town and Shinto are also constantly changing.

Chen Yu saw a fire suddenly breaking out in the distant city.

The fire burned most of the city, but the flames continued to shrink unnaturally.

A black sun emitting blue light appeared in the new capital, and black mud continued to pour into it.

Then the black sun disappeared, and the wreckage of the next ship in Weiyuan River was changing from a damaged state to intact.

It seems like time is flowing backwards rapidly.

Chen Yu was stunned.

Wait until Chen Yu comes to his senses.

Chen Yu saw a different Fuyuki City again.

Looking at Fuyuki City where the buildings on both sides had changed, Chen Yu fell into deep thought.

Doesn’t it mean that the system has to work hard every time it travels?

Good guy, has it been changed to time travel this time?

When Chen Yu saw the changes in the surrounding environment, he opened the system page again and found that the system had updated the system prompts.

[Invited by a certain will, players are welcome to the ten-year prequel to the Fifth Holy Grail War - the time node of the Fourth Holy Grail War. 】

[Players who return to complete the main mission can return to the normal time period and continue the game. 】

[The player's prequel main mission failed, and the world permanently refuses players entry. 】

[The player's prequel main mission is successful, and the prequel world will be loaded into the game's world history in the form of historical text. 】

[Note: Players cannot switch to other game worlds before returning to the normal game time point. 】

System prompts flashed in front of Chen Yu's eyes, letting Chen Yu know what happened.

It was obvious that according to the system prompts, he was invited by some kind of will, and he was now in the time period before the Fourth Holy Grail War in 1944.

This is not a normal time point, which prevents me from switching to other game worlds.

It is not clear whether it is Gaia, the will of the world, or Alaya Consciousness, the quasi-collective subconscious mind, who forcibly invited me to this time point.

It is not ruled out that these two guys are doing things at the same time.

Chen Yu saw other game worlds that could not be switched back to normal time points, and quickly tried to get off the game, for fear of being trapped in this moon world.

I found that I could still get off the plane and return to the real world through the Starry Sky Bridge. The starry sky door that wanted to approach other worlds displayed a red no-access sign.

Forcibly approaching will also trigger a red prohibition symbol, reminding players that they are currently in a special mission and cannot use the starry sky door.

But Chen Yu was relieved to be able to return to the real world without restrictions.

At least there is an escape route, so that all escape routes are not blocked.

Looking at the slightly changed building under his feet, Chen Yu decided to open the mission and see what the main mission was.

This is the first mission in the game that has penalties for failure.

[Main mission: Prevent the magician from reaching the source]

[Task content: The world refuses any magician to reach the root. Players are asked to prevent magicians in the Holy Grail War from reaching the root. 】

[Task reward: random item card +10 or random skill card +10]

[Main Mission: Stop the Holy Winter Wood Fire]

[Task content: Although the countless innocent souls buried in the Fuyuki fire do not know what happened, they still long for miracles. Players are asked to prevent the Fuyuki Fire from starting or spreading. 】

[Task reward: random item card +10 or intermediate random skill card +10]

Could it be that the first main mission means that if I follow the plot of the game world, there may be a magician who can reach the root through the Holy Grail War?

For now, Tokiomi Tosaka is the only one who can aim at getting to the root.

If Kirei Kotomine, who was born with a personality defect, had not awakened to the nature of "pleasure", with the support of Jin Shining, his probability of winning on the bright side is quite high. Without the protection of the scabbard, Saber is not Jin at all. Sparkling opponent.

Moreover, only Tosaka Tokiomi not only understands the nature of the Holy Grail, but is also a serious magician with the goal of leading to the source.

As for the other magicians who participated in the Holy Grail War, they either did not understand the nature of the Holy Grail War, or their wishes had nothing to do with leading to the source.

Emiya Kiritsugu - Master of Saber, "Magician Killer", belongs to the noble Einzbern family.

The reason for participating in the Holy Grail War is to obtain the Holy Grail, known as the wish machine, and pray that the Holy Grail can grant his wishes. He believed that through the Holy Grail he could realize his ideals, eliminate war and death, and eliminate the need to sacrifice some people to save others.

Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald—Lancer's Master, the head of the Archibald family, is a talented magician with outstanding achievements, and serves as a first-level lecturer in seance at the headquarters of the Magic Association.

He did not participate in the Holy Grail War for any necessary or urgent reasons, but because he wanted to add anecdotes that would be evaluated as "war exploits" to his own experience.

To put it bluntly, I just want to refresh my resume and make my resume look better.

Weber Velvet - Rider's Master and Clock Tower student.

The reason for participating in the Holy Grail War was that he was dissatisfied with his mentor Kenneth El-Melloi Archibald's rejection of him. In order to gain everyone's recognition of his strength, he stole his mentor's heroic relics to participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War. , I want to use this to show my strength and get everyone's recognition.

An aspiring young man who is dissatisfied with his mentor's arrangements and wants to prove himself.

Ryuunosuke Ubu - Caster's Master, a perverted murderer.

He has no interest in the Holy Grail and didn't even know it existed before summoning Caster.

He belongs to the lineage of a magician and has never learned any magic knowledge. He accidentally summoned Caster and became a common murderer.

If Yu Shenglong hadn't found documents about summoning "demon" in the warehouse, wanted to try a new way of killing, and tried to use the victim's blood to draw a magic circle to summon the "demon" during the home invasion murder, otherwise it would have been impossible. Caster will no longer be accidentally summoned on the fourth time.

Kotomine Kirei——Master of Assassin, former representative of the Holy Church, and belonged to the Tohsaka family before betrayal.

He was once a first-class representative of the Holy Church, but later transferred from the church to the Magic Association in the form of "dispatch". After being introduced by his father, he temporarily studied under the Japanese magician Tokiomi Tosaka to learn magic abilities and knowledge.

Participating in the Holy Grail War in the early stage was just to ensure that the Holy Grail could be carried out normally under the supervision of the church. Even if the purpose changed after awakening to the nature of "pleasure" in the later stage, no matter what kind of change, it had nothing to do with getting to the source.

Matou Kariya - Master of Berserker, belongs to the Matou family, the second son of the Matou family, participated in the Fourth Holy Grail War in order to save Matou Sakura's fate.

Although he was born in a family of magicians, he was kind-hearted. Because he could not accept the ugly insect arts and did not want to become Zangyan's puppet, he decided to break away from the shackles of the family and resolutely severed his relationship with magic. When Sakura was not sent to the Matou family Live as an ordinary person.

After learning that his close enemy Tosaka Tokiomi gave Sakura to the Matou family as an adopted daughter and subjected her to all kinds of abuse, he felt that Tokiomi had trampled on the happiness of mother and daughter. "Bitter" feeling of self-blame.

So Matou Kariya and Matou Zouken made an exchange. If he could win the Holy Grail, Zouken would return Sakura to the Tohsaka family.

So the reason why Matou Kariya joined the Holy Grail is very simple, just to fight to free Sakura from her suffering.

The second mission is also clear, just stop Saber from cutting the Small Holy Grail and convince Emiya Kiritsugu to issue the curse.

After confirming the mission goal, Chen Yu scratched his head and stared at the traffic flowing normally again under his feet.

If you have wine today, you will be drunk today. Things will come tomorrow and you will be worried tomorrow.

Forget it, since the Holy Grail War hasn't started yet, let's find a place to stay first.

You can't spend your first day in the moon-shaped world in the Dust Song Pot, right?
