Eighth Crown

It was a large underground cavity with a crater-like shape.

Although the surroundings are dim and dim, it can be seen that the terrain here is quite empty and disorderly.

Above the crater, there is a scarlet glow like the twilight of doomsday, exuding an ominous atmosphere full of malice, which makes people unable to help themselves.

At the foot is a huge magic circle with a diameter of more than one kilometer, which almost fills the ground of this large underground hole, capturing the information and intelligence of the outside world like a nerve tentacle.

This is where the Great Holy Grail is.

The vicious aura fills the eyeballs and ears, as if this space itself has been completely transformed into another world of malicious intelligence, but just being in it makes one's scalp tingle involuntarily.

"marvelous!"

The dragon's voice echoed in Liu Xia's mind, and her tone was extremely excited.

"Partner! The negative emotions here are very huge, and there is a source of those negative emotions in the depths. As long as I can absorb that, I will undoubtedly be able to go further!"

Needless to say, Liu Xia had already sensed it.

In the crater-like basin, there is the body of the Great Holy Grail of this world, and it must have been polluted by a lot of negative emotions, which is why this space has been alienated to this extent.

Because there is no Little Holy Grail to activate as a kind of fire, the current Great Holy Grail is still not activated.

Liu Xia's figure flickered, and the next moment, he came to the top of the crater, came to the front of the Black Holy Grail, and put his hand on it.

"Dragon, can you go in?"

Liu Xia asked the Demon Dragon in her heart.

"Well...it seems to be possible."

The Demon Dragon tried a little, and the soul was transferred from Liuxia's body to the Great Holy Grail.

"It may be because I am a soul body, so I can go in."

When the Great Holy Grail is not activated, unless, like Amakusa Shirou, he uses an extremely special Noble Phantasm to control the magical base of the Great Holy Grail, the living person cannot enter the Great Holy Grail.

Unless you become a dead person, that is, in the form of a soul, you can barely get in and out of it.

"In that case, you can directly enter the Great Holy Grail."

Liu Xia said to the dragon: "It should take a lot of time to absorb such a huge amount of negative emotions, but are you sure that you will not be polluted by these negative emotions?"

"I wasn't sure before, but now it's no problem!"

The dragon's tone was very determined.

"The amount of negative emotions here is indeed so large that I am afraid. If I change it to the previous one, I am afraid that there is indeed the possibility of being polluted, but after making a contract with you, I can use some of your power, and my soul will also change. Can't be shaken."

Generally speaking, after a familiar has signed a contract with the master, the familiar will gain part of the power of the master.

Of course, it is not accurate to say that, mainly because after the two signed the contract, there is an additional line of causality between the demon and the master. Through this causal line, the demon can exert the power of the master to a certain extent. .

Conversely, if the familiar is extremely powerful and the master is a waste, then the master can also get the power of the familiar through this causal line.

And after signing the soul contract with Liu Xia, the dragon can use the causal line between Liu Xia and Liu Xia to exert part of Liu Xia's absolutely calm power, and the soul becomes unable to be easily shaken.

In view of this, the possibility of the dragon being polluted by negative emotions is almost non-existent. After all, Liu Xia's absolute calmness has risen to the EX level, and even the temptation of human evil can be ignored.

However, this causal line has both advantages and disadvantages. For example, if the dragon is really polluted by negative emotions, then this negative emotion can even pass through the causal line and in turn affect Liu Xia himself.

A magician with sufficient magic skills, such as Semiramis, can even kill the master by poisoning the slave and using the causal line between the slave and the master.

"Alright then, you go."

Liu Xia expelled the dragon's soul from her body, allowing her to enter the Great Holy Grail.

Because of the huge difference in the laws of time and space inside and outside the Great Holy Grail, as soon as the dragon entered the Great Holy Grail, the spiritual connection between the two became intermittent, like a bad signal.

"...Don't worry, there's no problem...it's a little hard, but these things can't contaminate me...you just wait for me to be reborn from the ashes!"

Although it was a bit intermittent, the magic dragon still came out with a confident voice.

It seems that she has been bathed in a lot of negative emotions, but her voice is still full of energy, so there should be no problem.

Of course, if there is really a problem, Liu Xia can also detect it in advance through the causal line, and then connect the magic dragon, so it is basically foolproof.

After sending the demon dragon into the Great Holy Grail, Lucia left the big underground cavity.

Although he has the task of destroying the Black Great Grail, he doesn't have to rush it for a while. After all, it is useful to the Demon Dragon, and he also has to use the Holy Grail War launched by the Black Great Holy Grail to complete the task of defeating the Servant.

Although he also has his own Great Holy Grail, he can also create a Holy Grail War with his own power, and the task of defeating the Servant is very simple, but when he can complete the task with the Black Great Holy Grail, he is not ashamed. A bad plan.

…………

Early the next morning.

Nisei and others received the news that Atram had withdrawn from Fuyuki City, but the few people who had already determined that he would retire did not pay attention to him, but were preparing for the Holy Grail War.

For example, making hidden familiars to monitor the movements of the three families, and converting the ghost mansion itself into workshops, etc., anyway, this is their stronghold, and of course they can't just deal with it.

In the end, it was Liu Xia who made the move. It took half a day to set up several large-scale barriers around the ghost mansion, integrating several functions such as detection, surveillance, defense, and attack, and directly turned it into a temple.

This kind of performance scared the second generation enough, looking at Liu Xia like a monster.

Two months ago, he was still a magic rookie who didn't even open the magic circuit. Two months later, this kid has become a great magician that rivals the magician of the gods.

Fortunately, such a person is his own disciple or his collaborator, which makes him feel a lot more at ease.

In the calm, another few days passed in the blink of an eye.

Time soon came to the night of January 31st.

Judging from the movement of the Great Holy Grail, tonight is the time to summon Heroic Spirits, and it is also the clarion call for the official start of the Holy Grail War.

In front of the mansion.

The second world is playing with the two summoning magic circles with great care, and there is a delicate mahogany box next to it, with a broken piece of red cloak lying in it, and his face can't hide his excitement.

Even with this, Gray next to him became a little nervous, only to feel his heart pounding non-stop.

After preparations are over.

"let's start!"

The second world looked solemn.
