Chapter 206: Spiral Sword
Emiya Kiritsugu heard Shirou’s words, looked at his determined gaze, revealed a smile, then placed his palm on Shirou’s brownish-red short hair and said:
“Not unworthy of my child.”
“Become a Justice Partner, let Illya and Miyu laugh in the sunlight.”
Emiya Kiritsugu was very gratified that Emiya Shirou’s wish to become a Justice Partner was inherited from him.
When he was young, he also dreamed of becoming a Justice Partner, but due to the path he took, he did many wrong things.
Only later did he suddenly wake up and realize that he could no longer become a Justice Partner.
Because someone put Irisviel, Illya, and the justice in his heart on a scale to weigh them, forcing him to choose one.
Emiya Kiritsugu evaded it, and this man ultimately chose family over the justice in his heart, becoming a family hero.
Since both of them were Soul Masters, their speed far exceeded that of ordinary people, and Sunset Forest was now not much different from a dead domain, so there were no wild Soul Beasts blocking the way.
During the conversation, the two quickly arrived at the southwest direction of Sunset Forest.
Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly raised his right arm to block Emiya Shirou who wanted to go forward.
Shirou, seeing this, retreated a few steps, leaving enough space for Emiya Kiritsugu.
“This is the place.”
After saying that, Emiya Kiritsugu took out a cigarette from his pocket, tossed it forward, and the cigarette made a tooth-grinding corrosion sound as if it had touched concentrated sulfuric acid, finally falling to the ground and turning into a green unknown liquid.
“Shirou, take out the Soul Tool Searchlight.”
“Understood.”
Shirou took out a small Soul Tool Searchlight from his Storage Soul Tool and handed it to Emiya Kiritsugu.
Kiritsugu turned the searchlight to maximum, and the surrounding area almost instantly turned into daytime; if it were in Star Dou Great Forest, even with ten times the courage, Emiya Kiritsugu wouldn’t dare do this.
Because this was equivalent to sending his coordinates to all existences in the forest, but in Sunset Forest, there weren’t so many concerns.
Emiya Shirou watched the searchlight’s beam straight through the forest ahead, weakening a bit every few hundred meters, until a mass of emerald green Poisonous Fog completely blocked the high-energy light.
Emiya Kiritsugu said to Emiya Shirou beside him:
“Shirou, your Spiritual Power is relatively strong; can you calculate the approximate data?”
Emiya Shirou slightly frowned and said to Kiritsugu beside him:
“No, it can’t be calculated just from the data provided by the light.”
“I’ll try with a Soul Skill.”
“Didn’t it say these Poisonous Fogs are afraid of fire and low temperatures?”
After saying that, Emiya Shirou activated his Martial Soul, and five Soul Rings appeared on his body: two yellow, two purple, one black.
If it were before the Magic Net’s birth, Huo Yuhao might not have been able to let imaginary characters appear and gain high Soul Power; Bai E and the others suffered from being first movers, as he himself didn’t have that much Soul Power.
After having the Magic Net and an astronomically high number of Dream Coins, cooperating with the Little Planet Spirit to endow imaginary characters with Soul Power became as simple as eating and drinking.
Emiya Shirou’s Martial Soul was “Unlimited Blade Works,” an extremely unique Fantasy-class Martial Soul possessing a trace of Imagination Authority and Understanding Authority power.
The five Soul Skills were mechanism-class Soul Skills: First Soul Skill was enhancement, Second Soul Skill was detection, Third Soul Skill was recording, Fourth Soul Skill was projection, and fifth Soul Skill was Fantasy Collapse.
Soon, the third Soul Ring and fourth Soul Ring lit up together, and a silver greatbow appeared in his left hand.
Then, a strange spiral-shaped longsword appeared in his right hand.
Emiya Shirou nocked the Spiral Sword onto the greatbow, then condensed Soul Power to draw the bowstring; the Spiral Sword began to attract Heaven and Earth Origin Energy, and the surrounding leaves rustled under the airflow, scattering everywhere.
During the drawing process, the Spiral Sword gradually thinned until it was about the size of a normal arrow, then Emiya Shirou released his fingers, and the Spiral Sword instantly turned into a blue stream of light, charging forward at extreme speed.
The dim blue light was particularly conspicuous in the pitch-black night.
High-speed rotating airflow surrounded the Spiral Sword, cutting through all plants and rocks in its path; the surrounding Poisonous Fog was frantically cut by the airflow, then re-aggregated.
Then Emiya Shirou’s eyes focused, and the fifth Soul Ring instantly lit up, with black and profound light casting a shadow over the surroundings.
“Fantasy Collapse!”
The moment the Spiral Sword reached the emerald green Poisonous Fog, it was instantly detonated by Emiya Shirou!
The violent explosion carried violent light and heat, mercilessly devouring and tearing apart the thick layer of Poisonous Fog.
Intense high temperature and low temperature were the natural enemies of Poisonous Fog; the emerald green Poisonous Fog immediately lightened a lot, but was soon filled and perfected by new Poisonous Fog.
Although the time was very short, it was enough for Emiya Shirou to roughly estimate the data in his mind.
He said delightedly:
“Kiritsugu!”
“From the range devoured by the explosion and the time needed for repair, the Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flower in the southwest direction of Sunset Forest is somewhat less compared to other places.”
Emiya Kiritsugu saw the Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flower inside through the window period left by the earlier explosion and calmly said:
“No, it’s not less than other places.”
“Rather, the distribution of Jade Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flower here is wrong, causing the Poisonous Fog here to be weaker than other places.”
“Without a doubt, Shirou, this is the best passage into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!”
“Let’s go back first, organize the map, and wait for that Lord’s arrival.”
…………
Shrek City
Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue Na stood at the gate of Shrek Academy, watching Xia Die walk inside.
Shrek Academy’s curfew was almost up; if she didn’t go back, she’d have to ask Ti Bao to open the Hundred Realms Gate.
Once Xia Die’s figure disappeared from view, Huo Yuhao looked at Gu Yue Na and said:
“I’m troubling you with things in Shrek City.”
“In a few days, the negotiation team with Star Dou Great Forest will arrive in Shrek City.”
“You take them to the Core Area; if you encounter any problems, contact me.”
Gu Yue Na nodded, saying nothing; in her view, there wouldn’t be any problems at all.
Star Dou Great Forest was her territory, and Di Tian and the others had already sent her messages saying they would fully support Soul Spirit Technology.
The subsequent negotiations would at most perfect the details of promoting Soul Spirit Technology, such as forming forces and names, and various cooperation matters.
Seeing Gu Yue Na nod, Huo Yuhao patted her shoulder and said:
“Alright, confidence is good.”
“I’m going back to find Su Tong; next, I’ll take her to Sunset Forest first, then head to Extreme North to negotiate with the Lord of the Extreme North.”
“No time to lose, I’m off.”
As soon as the words fell, Huo Yuhao’s figure disappeared into a space vortex; after so much time using Kamui and researching the Space Crown.
Huo Yuhao could now directly use Kamui without activating the Sharingan.
As a late evening breeze blew by, the white skirt hem left white traces in the air, and silver hair strands swayed freely, leaving a faint fragrance.
A cold light flashed in Gu Yue Na’s eyes, and she thought silently in her heart:
“I hope Extreme North knows what’s good for it and voluntarily joins Soul Spirit Technology.”
“Otherwise, I’ll have to make a trip myself.”
Now that the God Realm Core was in the Goddess of Life’s hands, as long as Gu Yue Na didn’t go too far, the Goddess of Life would turn a blind eye, or even actively help shield the Silver Dragon King’s aura fluctuations.
Occasionally, the Goddess of Life would chat with Gu Yue Na through the God Realm Core, sneakily giving her some Divine Power of Life to help with healing.
However, what troubled Gu Yue Na somewhat was that whether it was the Goddess of Life or Huo Yuhao, they all seemed to like petting her head.
After watching Shrek’s gate for a while, Gu Yue Na had just taken out the yellow Hard Hat planning to check on the street expansion plan in the South District when she noticed a new message on her Magic Net.
“Useless Dragon”: “Lord, I’m outside Shrek City with the Imperial Beast.”
“This girl wants to go to the human world; see if you can take her for a while.”
“I guarantee she’ll be good.”
Gu Yue Na sighed and replied to Di Tian.
“Gu Yue”: “Sigh, bring her in from Shrek’s south gate.”
Di Tian replied almost instantly.
“Useless Dragon”: “Received!”
Gu Yue Na put the Hard Hat back into her Storage Soul Tool, and her figure instantly vanished from the spot, the whole process smooth and seamless, almost zero-frame startup.
Outside Shrek City, a black-clothed middle-aged man said to the blonde girl beside him:
“Lord agreed.”
“Let’s go, take you in from the south gate.”
Then, Di Tian carried the Three-Eyed Golden Lion quickly to Shrek City’s south gate and walked right in.
The Enthusiasm Members on guard duty had already learned of the news via Magic Net and did not stop them.
Seeing this, Di Tian clicked his tongue in wonder, couldn’t help but sigh that Lord was indeed amazing; in just a few months, the Soul Master holy land Shrek City had been infiltrated.
A silver figure suddenly appeared in front of Di Tian’s view.
Di Tian brought the Three-Eyed Golden Lion before Gu Yue Na, then knelt on one knee; the blonde girl saw Di Tian doing it and immediately followed suit.
But she found her body couldn’t move; Gu Yue Na shook her head and said:
“Get up; it’s just us, why bother with lord-servant etiquette?”
“Use Dragon Clan Etiquette from now on.”
Di Tian stood up and said respectfully:
“Yes, Lord.”
Gu Yue Na didn’t continue looking at Di Tian, focusing her gaze on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
“Little one, why do you want to come to the human world?”
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion showed Gu Yue Na a cute smile, launching a coquetry offensive.
“Isn’t it because I missed Mistress Sister?”
“Mistress Sister has been away from the forest for so long; I brought you lots of local specialties!”
“And the brain of a Twin-Eyed Giant; later I’ll grill it for you!”
“Plus, I want to come to the human world to taste delicacies!”
“It’s so boring in the forest!”
Immediately after, the Imperial Beast put on a pitiful expression, making Di Tian beside her twitch his eyelids and get goosebumps.
Gu Yue Na still suffered from her lack of experience and not having raised children, so her attitude immediately softened.
“Alright.”
“You’ll stay by my side from now on.”
“Have you two eaten?”
“I’ll take you to eat something.”
The Imperial Beast instantly changed faces and said happily:
“Great!”
“Finally, I can eat something delicious!”
Gu Yue Na touched the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s hair, unexpectedly feeling it was super nice to the touch.
She looked at the ecstatic Three-Eyed Golden Lion beside her and thought:
“The texture is indeed very good.”
“No wonder everyone likes petting heads.”
“By the way, how should I take care of a child?”
“No experience…”
“I heard children should go to school?”
“Little Imperial Beast can go to school too, right?”
“Yes! Later, ask Roman if he can arrange the Imperial Beast into the academy of the Enthusiasm Research Department to learn Soul Tool knowledge.”
“Children must have knowledge! Otherwise, like me and Di Tian, we couldn’t even understand Soul Spirit Technology right in front of us.”
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was still ecstatic at the moment, suddenly feeling a chill on her back, as if fate was reminding her, but she didn’t think much of it; with Mistress Sister right beside her, who would dare harm her? Who could harm her!
Lots of things today, and on a business trip, typed on the high-speed rail.
