"We didn't say we wanted you to become as strong as Maren, and we never expected that."
Hearing these blunt words, Gudako was immediately speechless.
Olga Marie, however, continued, "Repairing singularities doesn't necessarily require power."
"Marx and Engels proposed a theory that you can also repair singularities, which has been verified in this singularity."
"This theory is called the Holy Grail War Balance Theory."
"The Balance of Power in the Holy Grail War?" XN
This novel idea immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Yes, the so-called Holy Grail War is actually a fair competition with its own system of checks and balances."
"For example, if an anomaly occurs during the Holy Grail War, the Ruler will be summoned during the regular Holy Grail War to ensure its smooth progress."
Everyone nodded in agreement, acknowledging the existence of such a mechanism.
"Singularities arise because of the Holy Grail; to put it bluntly, they are essentially a variant of the Holy Grail War, and naturally, there will be such a balancing mechanism."
"For example, this time Jeanne Alter summoned a group of Servants. The Holy Grail War's balancing mechanism will allow other Servants to descend in order to counterbalance Jeanne Alter's side."
"Regarding this point, the survivor Cú Chulainn, who single-handedly wiped out most of the other Servants in Singularity F, and the Joan of Arc, Princess Marie, and Mr. Mozart who have descended upon this Singularity, as well as the Dragon Slayer you are about to find, are proof of this."
Everyone was taken aback; this was the first time they had ever heard such a claim.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems that's really the case.
Jeanne d'Arc is the Ruler, that goes without saying. The Ruler's descent was precisely to eliminate the anomalies of the Holy Grail War.
Princess Mary and Mozart, reflecting on the unusual way their own lives had been affected, also agreed that this made sense.
Because they are all heroic spirits associated with this singularity.
Leaving Mozart aside, Princess Marie was someone who was willing to sacrifice her life for Flanders.
Upon arriving here and witnessing the situation of this singularity, she naturally wouldn't leave it unattended and embarked on the journey to repair it.
Then, Mozart met Princess Marie and naturally followed her. Because of Princess Marie's existence, he contributed to the repair of the singularity and the elimination of the anomalies in this variant Holy Grail War.
And the dragon slayer they were about to find became even more obvious.
It was summoned specifically to counter the evil dragon summoned by Jeanne Alter.
···
What the public didn't know was that this theory was entirely fabricated by Marx and Engels.
No, this isn't fake; it's just called that in a different way.
The proper term should be 'human self-repair'.
It is the collective consciousness of primates, the inhibitory force Alaya, that drives it from behind.
After all, burning down humanity and destroying humankind is tantamount to destroying Him.
How could He possibly tolerate this?!
As for why Marx and Engels came up with such a theory?
Doesn't this mean he's ruining his chances of descending into the Singularity?
In fact, this was also part of Marx and Engels' plan.
The purpose, of course, is to prepare for a legitimate way to leave the group and do something else in the future.
...
But wouldn't this jeopardize his chances of descending into the singularity?
Marx and Engels were not worried about this.
The first few singularities were alright, but later on, especially the fourth singularity, after Solomon went out for a stroll.
The three major singularities that follow are the North American Mythological War, the Sacred Round Table Realm, and the Absolute Demonic Front.
Faced with these incredibly powerful singularities, even if Marne doesn't want to go, Chaldea might not be happy about it.
"In other words, the method for conquering the singularity has already been prepared. All you have to do is gather all the favorable conditions."
"Go explore, go investigate, and gather all available resources through negotiation. If we do our best, the singularity can probably be resolved."
"However, it sounds simple, but there is a lot to learn. That's why Mar and Eng are running around with you like this, so that you can learn and understand what to do in the situation."
"Do you understand what I'm saying, Fujimaru Ritsuka?"
Gudako nodded, understanding that this was a well-intentioned effort by Marne and the higher-ups of Chaldea.
"I will study hard and strive to save humanity; it is my duty."
Seeing Gudako say this with such a serious expression, Olga Marie nodded in satisfaction and hung up the communication.
Upon seeing this, Gudako immediately turned off the communication.
Yes, I will try my best, which is why you guys keep popping up to bother me.
Nine.
Chapter 270 Bajiquan! Earth-Piercing Cannon! The Unlucky Siegfried
Regardless of Gudako's reaction after hearing this theory.
In any case, the three Servants who were involved all had a new perspective on Mar and Engels.
Regardless of whether one is biased towards one area or not, the ability to articulate such a theory undeniably demonstrates the 'wisdom' of Marx and Engels.
This is a wise man.
This is a new understanding of Joan of Arc, Princess Mary, and Mozart.
Princess Mary couldn't help but feel that Marne was even more outstanding, and her eyes shone with admiration as she looked at the leading car ahead.
Even Mozart had to admit that he couldn't compare to Marx and Engels in this respect.
However, he didn't dwell on it. He just wanted to be himself, a 'protector of flowers' who loved art and silently guarded his goddess.
Only Joan of Arc fell into deep thought.
She had always believed in God, even attributing everything to God's guidance or the trials He had sent upon her.
However, after hearing Marx and Engels' "477" theory, she became somewhat skeptical.
Was she summoned by the Holy Grail, or was she assigned to it?
Marx and Engels also noticed Joan of Arc's silence and roughly guessed what she was thinking.
After all, for a person who believes in God, his theory is somewhat in conflict with the 'truth' that such people believe in.
"You don't need to think so much. As long as you're willing to believe, that's enough. Sometimes the truth isn't important. What's important is what people are willing to believe. If people believe it, then even if it's not the truth, it's the same as the truth."
Joan of Arc raised her head upon hearing this, glanced at Marne, and nodded with a smile: "Thank you."
Marx and Engels smiled and said nothing more.
Because Lyon has already arrived.
"What exactly happened here?"
Looking at the ruins before them, everyone was dumbfounded.
Because Marx and Engels had built the chariot, the group did not travel while gathering information as in the original story, but instead headed straight for the chariot.
So at this time, no one knew that Leon had been destroyed, nor did they know that the 'Dragon Slayer' was fighting here.
"Let bygones be bygones; finding the person is the priority."
As Ma En said this, he began spatial scanning.
Seeing Ma En's actions, everyone shut their mouths and did not disturb him.
After a while, Ma En nodded: "Found it, come with me."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked into the ruins, and the others quickly followed.
Led by Marne, the group found a man with silver hair and fluorescent green markings on his open chest in a hidden chamber in a castle.
"This is really... never-ending." When Zi saw Marne and the others, his eyes sharpened, and his face turned gloomy and ugly, especially when he saw Joan of Arc.
He's not in a good state right now, and yet he's encountered an 'enemy' at this crucial moment.
However, he did not give up. He raised his greatsword and charged towards Ma En and the others.
The first to be attacked was Ma En, who was walking at the front. The man showed no mercy and slashed his greatsword at Ma En's neck, intending to kill him with a single blow.
But how could Marx and Engels possibly let him succeed so easily?
"Small……"
"Danger..."
Before the people behind him could finish reminding him, Ma En dodged the sword with a quick movement and took a step forward, closing in on the silver-haired man.
The two were less than a body length apart, a distance at which weapons were difficult to use effectively, so Ma En did not draw his weapon but instead clenched his fists.
With a flick of his left hand, Ma En sent the silver-haired man's sword-wielding right hand, which was still holding its power, flying even further away, leaving the silver-haired man wide open and revealing a huge weakness.
Then, Ma En slightly lowered his body, sank his center of gravity, and stabilized his stance. At the same time, his right hand suddenly rose from his waist, gripped his waist, and concentrated all the power of his body into one point, unleashing a powerful punch.
"A cannonball that shoots straight up from the ground!"
Ma En had previously learned Bajiquan from Kirei Kotomine out of interest in the Fate/Zero world, and now he was performing it perfectly.
Bang!
The fist slammed into the silver-haired man's face at the very end of its range. Under the extreme force, the silver-haired man was instantly sent flying backward.
Bah! !
The silver-haired man first crashed into the ceiling, then fell back to the ground, lying there dazed and confused.
Maren should have known that this was no small matter.
Although not all of its power was used, the strength was amplified by the techniques of Bajiquan, so even if it wasn't at the 'EX' level, it was still a terrifying 'A+++' level.
"..." En looked at the 'I'm sorry' sign on the ground, and Siegfried, the Fei-ge, scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.
He assured everyone that he absolutely did not do it on purpose.
