My Stand-in is Steve

"I…"

Illya opened her mouth to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, blood started to pour out as if it was for free: "Ugh...cough cough..."

And soon, Fang Mo pulled out with one hand and pulled out a strange-looking piece of purple flesh. The thing was more like some kind of container than a heart, and there were even some crystals growing on it, which was completely different. Like the organs that humans should have.

 “Is this...the Little Holy Grail?”

Fang Mo looked at the beating thing in his hand and murmured softly.

Yes, this weird mass of flesh and blood in front of you is actually a large part of the reason why Fang Mo came to the fate world.

Illya's magic family, the so-called Einzbern... Their ancestors seemed to be artificial humans created by a group of magicians who were pursuing the third method, so this family is essentially a family of artificial humans. The purpose is to recreate the Third Magic Heavenly Cup.

 It’s a pity that in the long years.

Magicians gradually realized that this was an impossible act.

 So the magicians in the magic workshop left, and some chose to commit suicide because their hopes were shattered.

In the end, the created artificial people inherited their will and continued to try to reproduce the third magic for endless time, finally forming the current Einzbern family.

In the end, the Einzbern, Matou, and Tohsaka clans reached some kind of agreement and jointly established the Holy Grail War system. These three families had different ambitions and built the Great Holy Grail system in Fuyuki City. , and has been holding a ceremony called the Holy Grail War.

 As for Illya herself.

 In fact, it is the Little Holy Grail created by the Einzbern family.

Fang Mo carefully looked at the things in his hands and found some spells that he had never seen before.

 “Ouch!!”

Just after studying it, Berserker in the distance rushed towards me like crazy. This time his expression was really scary. He was obviously irrational, but at the moment he looked as scary as a splitting canthus. , as if he wanted to tear Fang Mo into pieces alive.

 “Want it?”

Fang Mo turned his head and glanced at Berserker who was rushing over, then picked up Illya with one hand and threw it towards a cemetery not far away: "Catch it!"

  “!?”

Berserker, who was rushing towards Fang Mo in a frenzy, suddenly stopped, and then immediately turned to look at Ilia, a moment of hesitation seemed to flash across his hideous face.

 But soon, he exerted force with both legs.

The ground exploded into pieces in an instant, and he himself roared and chased Illya in the air.

 “Okay, let’s call it a day.”

 Clapping his hands, Fang Mo directly woke up the few people who had just woken up from a dream.

"…ah!"

It was only at this moment that Tohsaka Rin suddenly came back to his senses and turned to Fang Mo hesitantly: "Archer, you just..."

"It's just a lie. Is she, a mere artificial human, worthy of being my master?" Fang Mo said casually, and then threw the throbbing purple flesh and blood in his hand to Tohsaka Rin: "Hold it, remember to keep it fresh. "

"This is…"

Tohsaka Rin subconsciously took the thing, and then suddenly his expression condensed: "Huh?"

 “Something like a small holy grail.”

Fang Mo explained casually. He had studied this thing just now. To be honest, he was a little disappointed. This little Holy Grail is more like a battery or a key... Simply put, it is simply used to store magic power, and The medium for activating the Great Holy Grail system does not have much worth referring to.

 “Did you...just kill that girl?”

At this moment, Shirou Emiya couldn't help but ask.

 “I didn’t kill him.”

Fang Mo shrugged and said: "The reason why we Germans are so formidable on the battlefield is because of our terrible willpower. Even if our hearts are taken out, we will not die..."

“Most people will die if their heart is ripped out, right?”

 Emiya Shirou looked a little excited, his shoulders were trembling and he yelled: "Why are you..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a hand suddenly press on his shoulder. Emiya Shirou turned around and found that it was Tohsaka Rin: "Tohsaka-san?"

 “That guy is no ordinary person.”

Tohsaka Rin explained: "Didn't you listen to the conversation we just had? She is an android magician of the Einzbern family. She should...should not die so easily."

 Of course that’s what I said.

 But to be honest, Tohsaka Rin himself felt a little guilty, after all, Fang Mo's attack was too cruel.

So is Illya dead? The answer is obviously no…

You must know that Fang Mo is from that country, and the fact that the average person in that country has white hair is no joke. Even if he stabbed Shirou Emiya to death, he would not be able to kill Illya.

 The reason why Fang Mo just came to pay the head of state.

 In fact, there is a reason.

 First of all, he really wanted to study the composition of the Little Holy Grail. After all, this was the purpose of his trip.

In addition to this, there is another point, that is, in Fang Mo's impression, Illya seems to have indeed died in the animation. She was stabbed to death by the Hero King Gilgamesh. The purpose was to seize the blood from her body. The Little Holy Grail.

 So if Fang Mo takes away the Little Holy Grail in advance.

It is estimated that Hero King Gilgamesh will not target the opponent, but will take the initiative to come to her. This can be regarded as another kind of protection for her by Fang Mo.

 You must know that Fang Mo is not the Holy Mother.

He can't be like a nanny, following behind everyone to save lives and save lives. That's not in line with his style of doing things.

But for the characters he really likes, Fang Mo certainly has his own way of saving people, whether it's Stark in Marvel, Jonathan in JOJO's Bizarre Adventure, or Akira Hayakawa in Chainsaw Man... said To be honest, if Fang Mo really wants to protect someone, even if the God of Creation comes, it won't work.

 The moment he just took away the Little Holy Grail.

 Fang Mo has already planted a small ball of beacon energy in the opponent's body.

 He didn’t even use potions or stab her with a knife, but went straight to the highest standard of treatment, which was enough to prove his love for the little white-haired girl.

He wished he was the same.

　　During the period when the beacon energy is in effect, Illya will not die even if her head falls off, let alone a heart.

If only Louis XVI could have been treated like this...

Stepping down from the guillotine, he turned into Xingtian and suppressed the mob.

Okay, this may be a bit far, but Fang Mo does have his own reasons for doing this. After all, the rules of the Holy Grail War are here.

If you want the Great Holy Grail to come, you must fight until there is only the last servant left.

 This also means that all the followers of the other six families must die.

 Suppose Fang Mo abducts Illya now...how will Berserker solve it then? Illya likes this Berserker very much, which makes her order to kill her servants to end the Holy Grail War. Can she agree? Rather than giving yourself a headache.

  It is better to let other servants do the trouble.

 “Okay, stop making blind calculations.”

Thinking of this, Fang Mo also waved his hand and said: "I have been told that my German technology is number one in the world. This guy was stabbed in the heart just now. Isn't he still alive and kicking now?"

 After speaking, he pointed at Shirou Emiya.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　?)

 Tohsaka Rin was also stunned when he heard this. Yes, wasn't Shirou Emiya silenced by Lancer earlier? He was already dead at that time, but wasn't he rescued by Fang Mo?

"…Um?"

 In fact, Emiya Shirou himself was stunned for a moment and subconsciously touched his chest.

As the saying goes, people will die when they are killed. The feeling of death was simply too terrifying. Even just recalling it, Emiya Shirou felt frightened. He really didn't want to experience it again.

But it seems that’s why.

 Emiya Shirou wondered why he was still alive.

According to Tohsaka Rin, it seems that the head of state in front of him saved himself, but what kind of method did he use... Can he even resurrect the dead?

 Of course Fang Mo will be resurrected.

To put it bluntly, if he really wanted to, he could even resurrect the participants of the Fourth War such as Emiya Kiritsugu, Tokiomi Tokiomi, and Kariya Matou, and then let them personally guide his children. How to fight five battles.

 But as for the Shirou Emiya in front of me...

Fang Mo really didn’t resurrect him. This guy got through it all on his own.

He had indeed built a magic altar before, but during the ceremony, Fang Mo unexpectedly discovered that Shirou Emiya was not dead, and the ceremony failed.

It can only be said that the holy relic Avalon in the opponent's body is indeed outrageous. It has blood-locking properties. Even if his heart was pierced, he didn't die. He just fell into a strange state of suspended animation. Later, Fang Mo had nothing to do. He directly picked up the healing sickle and stabbed him repeatedly, and then Emiya Shirou came back to life.

 It was just because the ground was covered with blood.

Emiya Shirou was too frightened, so he rushed out of the door after waking up. As a result, he happened to meet Li Yunlong, played by Fang Mo, and was kicked into the warehouse.

“Did I say you two can stop ink stains?”

While the two were thinking, Fang Mo urged again: "Didn't we agree to go find the supervisor? Hurry up."

 “Supervisor…”

 Due to Berserker's tenacity, the scope of this battle was exaggerated.

First of all, there are numerous large pits densely packed in front of you. You must know that this place was originally a remote street. However, after the saturation bombing, the original terrain is no longer visible, and it feels like a complete ruin.

 Except for the ruins in front of you.

There were flickering firelights everywhere, and the air was filled with acrid gunpowder smoke.

This scene is simply more terrifying than the disaster in Fuyuki City ten years ago. This is a real war. If this place was not very remote, it would have been a scene of **** on earth, and there would definitely be countless casualties.

But even though this place is located in a remote place, the destruction of such a large-scale urban facility still made Tohsaka Rin's brain a little confused.

 The incident of bombing the school was also a headache.

 But at least there are other reasons to get past it, such as cults, terrorists, etc.

 But the damage caused before his eyes spread dozens of times the size of the school, which even gave Rin Tosaka the urge to almost faint.

 Even if you go to find Kotomine Kirei now.

I'm afraid his supervisor can't do anything about it, right?

Tohsaka Rin received education at a very young age. Her father Tohsaka Tokiomi told her that things on the mysterious side should not affect ordinary people in any case.

 But the servant she summoned was the terrifying European evil spirit... Although during the Holy Grail War, it was inevitable that the battle of heroic spirits would affect the surroundings, but Tohsaka Rin still felt guilty.

 “…Is this war?”

Thinking of this, Tohsaka Rin couldn't help but sigh.

 “That’s what war is like.”

Soon Fang Mo's voice came from the side: "To put it bluntly, war is just a meat grinder, but it is not war that grinds life itself, but various human emotions and desires."

 “Is that what you actually think?”

Tohsaka Rin glanced at Fang Mo unexpectedly. She always thought that the other person was a pure war madman.

"Otherwise?" Fang Mo smiled noncommittally: "Hate, greed, madness, fear, human desires and emotions are the breeding ground for war. Da Linzi, look up and look at everything in front of you. This is the Holy Grail. War."

　　　…”

Tohsaka Rin subconsciously looked at the burning land in front of him.

At this moment, she seemed to suddenly realize something. If the Holy Grail War was really such a cruel thing...then the ritual itself might be wrong.

The fight between magicians, their mutual greed, and the pursuit of what they longed for eventually resulted in such a tragic scene. Even his own father died in the Holy Grail War. This was indeed a mistake. Well, twisted rituals like this should be completely terminated so that they can no longer create sadness.

　　Tohsaka Rin was also mentally disturbed when he thought of this.

 Yes, she suddenly thought of the significance of her participation in this Holy Grail War.

Originally, she participated in the Holy Grail War just to inherit her father's legacy. She didn't have any special wish to realize, but now she seems to have it.

If this ritual of fighting each other and creating pain and chaos is wrong, then as a member of the Tohsaka family, she must end this cruel war and repair all the pain it has caused to the world!

Think of this.

Tohsaka Rin also glanced at Fang Mo subconsciously.

　　Yes, she was still kept in the dark, thinking that Fang Mo wanted to save her failed empire, but it was obvious that she had to stop him... Then she would use the Holy Grail to realize her wish. This could be regarded as liberating his soul, right?

It’s just the way Rin Tohsaka sees it.

But suddenly he noticed that Fang Mo was frowning and thinking about something.

"What are you thinking about?" Tohsaka Rin, a little kid, of course didn't know what Fang Mo was thinking. At this moment, he also asked strangely: "Do you think you are making too much noise?"

“Do you remember what you told me about the three major magic families last night?”

Fang Mo asked, touching his chin.

"remember."

Tohsaka Rin blinked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"The child just now is a magic user of the Einzbern family, and you are a magic user of the Tohsaka family." Fang Mo said in a playful tone: "Since two of the three major magic families have participated in the Holy Grail War, What do you say…"

“…Did the Matou family participate?”
