She saw Zhao Suyi rushing over not far away, and she lost the qualification to continue participating in the Holy Grail War, so she did not stay.
Ling Wuji and Zhao Suyi looked at each other.
He really couldn't explain what the situation was now.
But at the moment, he didn't seem to have any chance to quarrel with her, so he could only ask: "So, is your wish still the same?"
Zhao Suyi took a deep breath.
Then he just looked at the boy quietly.
……
Most of what happened afterwards was unremarkable.
Although Ling Wu Ji had dealt with two people from the same camp and made one of them lose the qualification to continue participating in the Holy Grail War, in fact, under the current circumstances, the souls of the servants gathered in the Small Holy Grail can already realize some not-so-big wishes, but there are still five servants at the moment, so Ling Wu Ji picked the weak ones and eliminated the magician of the clock tower and his servants.
Among the remaining masters, Ling Wuzhi naturally didn't care about wishes, and the same went for Kamijou Kaori. On the contrary, the android Irisviel was a little at a loss when the time came.
As for the remaining four servants, Zhao Suyi didn't make it clear what her wish was, Ji Moyu Ling Wu Ji didn't ask for the time being, and the Assyrian empress who turned around halfway just looked at the Holy Grail with a gloomy look. Although Caster, who had been a bystander the whole time, wanted to say something, she weighed the gap between herself and Zhao Suyi and Ji Moyu, and for a moment, she wisely waited for others to speak first.
"What are you doing..."
Let Wu Ji speak.
In the end, no one wants to make a wish?
"Archer?"
Let Wu Ji ask.
The woman waved her hand and said, "Actually, I just want to see for myself what the situation is like in China at this point in time. Although I'm not very satisfied, I can't interfere. When you agreed to let me go to China, my wish was fulfilled."
"Then you?"
Ling Wu Ji wanted to point the sword at himself.
"What? Are you ready to cross the river and destroy the bridge so soon?"
"But didn't you say that your wish has been fulfilled?" Ling Wu Ji asked in surprise.
"Yeah, but I think the world is quite interesting now, and I want to stay and observe. Speaking of which, aren't you the kind of kid who would make a lot of people want to kill you? Don't you want to use me to calm the situation like you did before?"
"That depends on your willingness."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Ling Wuji's tone.

"As long as you can continue to maintain my existence, I can help you."
Ji Moyu said indifferently.
Irisviel beside her hesitated to speak.
"how?"
Let Wu Ji ask.
"According to the records of our clan, after a Servant touches the Greater Holy Grail, he can actually transform from a spirit body into a physical body."
The android with white hair and red eyes thought of something and said it.
Although Ling Wuji was even more powerful with Ji Moyu's help, he really didn't want to serve him. Now the other party couldn't detect the sarcasm in his words, and it would be hard to say in the future. So when he heard Alice say this, Ling Wuji was relieved:
"So, Saber?"
"My choice is similar to Archer's."
Zhao Suyi just said.
"So, caster?"
The silver-haired servant looked at Ling Wu Ji with strange eyes.
"Are you really going to give me this opportunity? Even though I've never told you my real name?"
"It doesn't matter to me. I don't care anyway," Ling Wuji just said, "Not to mention that I don't have any other ideas, and I will definitely not allow your Master to use the Holy Grail to complete the absurd plan of materializing the souls of all mankind. As for the assassin, you actually haven't figured out what your wish is, right?"
After hearing Ling Wuji's words, Irisviel just puffed up her cheeks like a child who never grew up, while the Assyrian empress came to her senses and gave Ling Wuji an ambiguous and dangerous smile. Ling Wuji was really troubled by this scene -
He simply wanted to go inside the Holy Grail to find out what the secret of the materialization of the soul was.
So I decided to cut the Gordian knot.
Let caster make a wish quickly.
But no one knew what wish caster made. Everything was quiet and no strange changes happened.
Ling Wuji was really impatient to wait, so he asked, "Is it done yet?"
Caster could only shake his head and sigh.
"Assassin?"
The Assyrian queen also shook her head at him.
Ling Wuji really didn't know what to say.
After all this fuss, what is the significance of the heroic spirits summoned in this Holy Grail War?
But after those heroic spirits completed their incarnation, he still plunged into the Holy Grail.
According to the records of the Einzbern family, the so-called Holy Grail system was originally completed with the sacrifice of the Saint of Winter. And Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern was a man-made person accidentally created by the disciples of the Third Magician in order to reproduce the Third Magic. Although she can use the Third Magic like the Third Magician, that is, soul materialization, the magic she uses is too sophisticated and expensive, and cannot achieve the purpose of the disciples of the Third Magician to create her - to save all mankind.
However, since she was thrown into the Holy Grail as a sacrifice, it means that there must be traces of the third law left inside the Holy Grail.
But Ling Wuji underestimated the danger inside the Holy Grail.
Inside the Greater Holy Grail, countless turbulent currents of magic were running rampant. He felt as if he had been thrown into a washing machine, but the stirring was not so straightforward. Instead, the relationship between time and space here was completely messed up. He even had the illusion that he could not tell up from down, left from right. It was as if he had been assimilated here and confused into something else.
The terrible thing is that this confusion cannot even be separated by any boundaries.
Because now he has no way to recognize what is his true self and what is the outside world.
Ling Wu Ji had heard that the Holy Grail War was actually designed to allow the Small Holy Grail to absorb the souls of the Servants who died in the war so that the Small Holy Grail could form a hole leading to the root. But at the moment, Ling Wu Ji had a vague illusion that he was in the underworld or even in the root.
Ling Wu Ji felt that if he continued to stay there, he would probably be completely assimilated, so he used the sword intent of Liuhe Sword to isolate himself from the outside world. He was about to leave, but this action seemed to awaken something, just like when the power button of a computer is pressed and various circuits are self-checking. Something like a magic circuit began to flash inside this chaotic space, and finally, an illusory figure condensed and stood in front of him.
This person is exactly like Irisviel.
If one really wants to find fault, one can only say that there is still a bit of earthly air about Alice, but the person in front of him seems like an illusory phantom, like the silent falling snowflakes in winter.
"The Saint of Winter?"
Let Wu Ji ask.
"I have no reason to be called a saint."
It seemed that the other party had not spoken for hundreds of years, so his speech was intermittent. Finally, he pieced together these words in Ling Wuji's mind.
Ling Wuji thought about it and said, "The so-called saints are mostly people who sacrifice themselves or are martyrs, right? Could it be that you were actually offered as a sacrifice in this Holy Grail?"
The person who looked exactly like Irisviel just smiled and shook his head. His long silver hair swayed as smoothly as silk in this space. "Of course I chose it myself. But maybe I'm just tired of that kind of life."
"That kind of life?"
"After I was created, my body was very weak. I could only live in the castle day after day, repeating the same life. However, since I am a user of the third law, my spirit and intellect will not age. Therefore, life in that castle is almost unchanged for me."
"Wait! Do you have your own intelligence now?"
Ling Wuji originally guessed that the other party was dead.
The person before him was just a phantom of an old soul.
It's like the Holy Grail's own management program, or AI.
But when he heard this phantom talking about his past, although there was no strong emotion in his tone, and it could even be said to be bland, Wu Ji couldn't believe that this figure was just a rigid program and not an intellectual soul of his own.
"you guess?"
Not to mention that at this time the other party even winked at Ling Wuji mischievously. That kind of indifferent, quiet and noble temperament suddenly disappeared without a trace, leaving Ling Wuji completely at a loss as to how to react.
But if you think about it carefully, the other party is a person who has completed the materialization of his soul. Even if he is used as a sacrifice, he may not really die so easily.
PS: In the original novel of "FA", the Winter Saint was clearly killed, but in the animation she appeared and spoke to Amakusa Shiro.
Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 38: Return
However, Ling Wu Ji did not dwell on this issue for too long.
Whether she was truly sentient or an AI managing this wishing machine, it had nothing to do with his purpose. He came to the interior of the Holy Grail just to find out what the Third Law was. Since she had taken the initiative to show up, maybe she could help him. He didn't have to look for the true meaning of the Third Law by investigating old traces.
"You want me to use the third method on you?"
Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern said.
Ling Wuji was not quite sure what the consequences of doing so would be. What was the difference between the third method and the legendary "true person" level Yang Shen, but anyway, he did not need to use other means to improve his combat power and level, so he rejected this approach. He only wanted to achieve that realm through his own accumulation, rather than using this overnight method.
Logically speaking, it’s not like he can’t beat others.
But if that were the case, this prototype of all the androids of the Einzbern family would be helpless.
After all, she was just a creation of the disciple of the third magician.
She could only use the third method, and the most she could do was to describe the feeling of using the third method to make Ling Wuji understand what kind of spell the third method was. If she could really explain the specific principles behind it, those disciples of the third magician would not have to give up their plans so disappointedly.
Hearing this answer, Ling Wuji had nothing more to say. He couldn't hold on for much longer and wanted to leave the interior of the Holy Grail. But before leaving, he asked the Winter Saint, "I don't know if you are really sentient, but do you know what is happening in the outside world?"
Justissa Rizleich von Einzbern just shook her head.
strangeness.
Isn't she the management AI of the Holy Grail? Then who gave the modern knowledge of magic to the Heroic Spirits?
Ling Wuji was too lazy to think about it, but he still said, "So, do you want to go out?"
"why?"
"what why?"
"Since you know that there are traces of the Third Law inside the Holy Grail, you also know the purpose of the Holy Grail's design, right? If I were free and could freely control the earth spirit energy that the Holy Grail has absorbed, I could practice the Third Law on all people. But you didn't make a wish to save all mankind. Don't you want to stop me?"
The Winter Saint suddenly said.
"Before you drain the planet of its ley lines of spiritual energy, something will surely stop you."
Ling Wu Ji just said.
