Everyone gradually dispersed, and the dock area soon returned to calm, leaving only devastation and ruins all over the ground.
A quarter of an hour later, Ren left and returned again. He maintained his spiritual body, with a strange smile on his face, and began to wait quietly for a certain tragic man.
Lift the manhole cover above your head and place it aside.
Such a simple action, for the already exhausted Matou Kariya, was something that required the last bit of strength to be squeezed out.
The iron cover was finally removed, and Matou Kariya, who was in pain all over, greedily took a few breaths of the fresh air outside.
He endured the sour stench of the sewers for several hours.
But when he thought of getting revenge on that damn bastard Tokiomi Tohsaka, he drained all the strength in his body and climbed out of the earth with difficulty, dragging his extremely heavy body.
In the quiet night, there was no one on the street outside. He breathed a sigh of relief. This alley was three blocks away from the place where the followers had just fought. No one should have guessed that he was hiding here.
Matou Kariya leaned against the wall and walked home, supporting the wall.
Suddenly, a burst of white light appeared in front of his eyes, and the powerful magical aura frightened him.
Ren's back was against the wall, showing his physical form. Before Matou Kariya could react, a sharp long knife was placed on his neck.
"Good evening, Master of Berserker."
Matou Kariya: "..."
Of course he recognized Ren, and he couldn't help but show a desperate expression on his face. After a while, the haggard man let out a sad laugh:
"Hahaha...cough, it's so ironic, I will be the first to be killed, haha..."
The timing of Caster's appearance was too fatal. Berserker was attacked by Rider's powerful wheel, which caused great damage and took a while to fully recover.
What's more, he was captured alive immediately, and the opponent could kill him with one blow without waiting for him to summon his servants.
He was finished, it was all over.
Over the past year, those bugs had bitten her back, muscles, organs, nerves and blood vessels... all the suffering she had endured was in vain, and Sakura was also... in darkness.
"Hey, Matou Kariya, don't look so miserable and act like I'm the villain with the most heinous crimes. If I really wanted to kill you, you'd be out of luck."
Ren looked at Kariya, who had been tortured to the point of being skinny and bones and changed beyond recognition, and sighed. This man had been tortured too badly by the old bugs.
Matou Kariya was stunned when he heard this. Before he could reply, Ren grabbed his shoulder, entered a hidden container, and opened several arranged barriers.
He probed a ray of star energy into Yan Ye's body, and immediately felt that there were hundreds of bugs gnawing at the flesh and bones in Yan Ye's body. None of the organs in his body were intact, and almost all of them were necrotic.
"It's a miracle that you are still alive." Renn shook his head and sighed.
Even if the opponent rests in rest, he will definitely not survive for a month, and the magic power Berserker needs is so terrifying, those marking insects will probably eat him up.
Matou Kariya gave a wry smile, his tone was rather self-deprecating:
"Yes, it's very funny. While those bugs are devouring my flesh and blood, they are also trying their best to keep me alive longer so that they can eat me more thoroughly."
The inside of the body is gradually being eroded and plundered by other creatures... The word "pain" to describe this feeling is too gentle.
For Kariya, what sustains him is the flame of revenge and the determination to save a poor little girl, otherwise he would have collapsed long ago.
Ren shook his head slightly, and a blue light flashed in his eyes:
"Just be patient, you'll be fine soon."
He put his hands on Yan Ye's shoulders, and a large amount of the energy of the stars was injected into his body. The bugs in Yan Ye's body were frightened and immediately began to squirm.
This made him howl.
Ren's expression did not change, he forcibly held down the thrashing Kariya, concentrated on using the energy of the stars to wipe out a small number of active bugs that were eating flesh and blood, and then eroded about two-thirds of the bugs into temporary semi-dormant.
As for the remaining one-third, they have been integrated with the nerves, blood vessels, and magic circuits in Kariya's body, which is why he is still alive.
"Huhu~"
Kariya, who was sweating profusely, took a few heavy breaths. He hadn't dared to breathe so hard for a long time. Not long ago, even breathing would be painful for him.
"Okay, I believe you are not here to kill me this time."
Matou Kariya stood up relatively quickly. The bugs that had been tormenting him all the time in his body had temporarily subsided, and the pain all over his body had almost disappeared.
In addition to being mentally depressed, he felt physically comfortable for the first time, a feeling he hadn't experienced in almost a year.
Renn put on a white mask:
"I'm not here to kill you, but I'm not here to save you with good intentions. Matou Kariya, let's make a deal. I need..."
"But... there is only one Holy Grail."
After a moment of silence, Kariya smiled bitterly and said that the old bug would not give up until he got the Holy Grail.
Ren stared at him and said unceremoniously:
"What, do you think your Berserker can defeat the King of Heroes? Or do you think Matou Zōyan will keep his promise?
Stop being funny, that pervert will only play tricks on you to death, and you will be unable to do anything but die miserably in the end. "
These words were so direct and cruel that Matou Kariya was speechless for a moment. Jin Shining Shining's identity was exposed, which also greatly reduced his confidence.
Ren projected an operating table, scalpels and other items, and then took out some medicines and bandages he borrowed from the hospital last night, as well as several items from the steam world in the storage ring.
He also put on a borrowed white coat and stared at Yan Ye:
"You still have some time to think about it. Now lie down and I will perform a small operation on you."
For some reason, Matou Kariya shivered when he saw Ren dressed as a doctor.
"This...isn't necessary, I'm hopeless."
"Who said that? I think you can save your life and lie down for me! Matou Kariya, you have one other choice, which is to be hacked to death by me immediately."
This is the first time that Ren has experimented with the alchemy he learned. This kind of behavior is not convenient in the steam world, but here there are not so many scruples.
The little white mouse in front of me is undoubtedly the best experimental subject. He is going to die anyway, so why not give it a try.
Matou Kariya had no choice but to lie down obediently and was tightly restrained by Ren on the operating table. A few minutes later, he let out a shrill scream, as if he had been stabbed one after another.
"ah!!……"
The high-decibel screams never stopped. This was the situation after taking anesthesia. Every second was like hell. This was Kariya's experience.
Half an hour later, Ren Ye, the good doctor who saved the world, fed Yan Ye a tube of [Natural Source] and injected him with 20 ml of red dragon blood extract.
"Very good. I am happy to announce that this operation was a complete success. Patient Matong Yanye was successfully discharged from the hospital tonight!"
Renn smiled brightly and was full of a sense of accomplishment in helping others.
It turns out that doing good deeds is such a joy!
After the operation was completed, Matou Kariya first wiped the sweat, nose and tears from his face with a towel.
Then he finally couldn't restrain himself and kicked down the nightmare operating table. His action was very flexible and powerful, which proved the success of the operation.
"Sorry, I just needed to vent."
"I understand, I understand."
Seeing the look on Ren's face that said, come and thank me, Matou Kariya suddenly felt that the old bug was no longer so hateful.
At least the old bug wouldn't say he wanted to save him while dissecting him with a knife.
"Look, how energetic you are now." Intern doctor Ren took off his mask and showed a satisfied smile.
"Yeah, that's good if it works."
As long as you are so happy!
This smile made Matou Kariya's scalp tingle. Even if the operation was successful, he would be more afraid of Ren than grateful.
It would be better to die like this if he had another operation like this.
Ren closed the barrier and took him out of the container to the quiet streets outside.
"How do you think about my proposal?" Ren said with his hands in his pockets and looking at the moon.
Matou Kariya coughed twice. From the outside, he still looked like he was about to die, but a miniature alchemical and biological transformation magic reactor had been implanted in his body.
It will use one of those semi-dormant bugs as fuel to sustain his life, probably allowing him to live for another dozen years.
After hesitating for a moment, Matou Kariya summoned Berserker. Kuanglan's black armor was still a bit tattered, and his condition had not yet fully recovered.
Soon, a sword filled with cold light was thrown into Ren's hand, which was one of the agreed rewards.
The gorgeous sword is engraved with elven characters, and the blade emits a light as beautiful as the lake under the moon.
A++-level anti-personnel Noble Phantasm, an indestructible blade - the indestructible lake light.
