Chapter 777 Blood Temple

If possible, Tohsaka Rin also hopes to take it slowly and steadily, but the fact is that she does not have time.

Because during the investigation, Tohsaka Rin discovered a horrifying fact - the other party was creating a huge barrier!

To say how huge this barrier is, it almost covers the entire Fuyuki City. Once this barrier is activated, the entire Fuyuki City will be affected.

Obviously, it was the servant who created this barrier, but even Tohsaka Rin could not imagine how crazy a master would be to order his servants to do such a thing.

Therefore, she cannot wait until dawn. Tohsaka Rin must prevent the completion of this barrier at all costs. Once it is completely completed, the entire Fuyuki City will completely turn into hell.

That's why Tohsaka Rin chose to join forces with SABER and directly broke into the core of the barrier in an attempt to completely destroy it. But the existence of that black shadow far exceeded Tohsaka Rin's expectation. Not only did he fail, but even SABER and its master were swallowed up...

"It seems that a frontal attack is not possible. Now the buildings in Xindu have completely become the opponent's lair. We must find a way to sneak in..."

"Sneak in? Why sneak in?"

However, upon hearing Tohsaka Rin's words, Sakura tilted her head in confusion.

"Because the core of the barrier is in the building! The core must be destroyed!"

"Then I have an idea."

Facing the anxious Tohsaka Rin, Sakura thought for a moment and spoke.

"any solution?"

"Well...according to Big Brother, don't think about boring things at this time, so..."

As she spoke, Sakura paused and looked at Tohsaka Rin.

"How about blowing up that building?"

"……………Aha??"

Faced with his sister's suggestion that went beyond common sense, Tohsaka Rin was stunned for a moment.

"What are you talking about, Sakura? That's in the middle of the new urban area! You want to blow up the entire building? How is this possible?"

"How is this impossible? My eldest brother once said that we need to figure out the priority of tasks. Currently, the biggest headache for my sister is that once the opponent activates the barrier, the entire Fuyuki City will be completely trapped. In that case, Shouldn’t we prioritize destroying the core barrier to prevent the situation from getting to this point?”

"That's true, that's why we have to sneak into the building..."

"But no."

However, Tohsaka Rin's defense was calmly interrupted by Sakura.

"The opponent is very strong. Even SABER is no match for the opponent. I don't think we can completely defeat the opponent with ASSASSIN and ARCHER. For my sister, this is simply a gamble. Maybe our end will not be the same as before. What's the difference? However, as long as you blast that building, you can be 100% sure that you can destroy the core, right? There are 100% means to achieve the goal, but you have to risk the odds. I can't understand my sister's thoughts. "

"...You look a bit like a magician at this time."

Looking at Sakura in front of him, Tohsaka Rin sighed silently.

"Because there was no one in the building, I judged this to be the best way. Big brother also taught me this. When encountering danger, you must first sort out the severity and mitigate it, then decide the priority, and finally just go to it... Others It doesn't matter. My sister may have been restrained by the magician's request to hide, but this is simply putting the cart before the horse. Besides, it's just a building, and there are countless excuses to come up with. If it doesn't work, it can be said to be a gang fight. Destroyed the building…”

"Is this okay...?"

Hearing Sakura's answer, Tohsaka Rin was completely dumbfounded. Thinking about it carefully, just like Sakura said, Tohsaka Rin, as a magician, first considers the first requirement of magic, concealment. In her opinion, blowing up a building is obviously a very conspicuous act, but if you think about it carefully, once the barrier is deployed, the entire Fuyuki City will suffer.

In comparison, blowing up a building... seems like nothing.

At this moment, Sakura's voice reached Rin Tohsaka's ears again.

"...or are you saying that my sister wants to save SABER's MASTER?"

"………………"

Hearing this, Tohsaka Rin trembled and said nothing, while Sakura lowered her head.

"Although I don't know much about the relationship between my sister and SABER's master, in my personal opinion, I think saving the citizens of Fuyuki City is more important than SABER and its master. Is it possible that my sister wants to do it for a tael? Are you going to let the residents of Fuyuki City fall into danger?"

"I……………"

Faced with Sakura's inquiry, Tohsaka Rin was a little confused. However, at this moment, ARCHER, who was standing next to her, suddenly chuckled.

"Haha, interesting. So Master of ASSASSIN, according to you, in order to save the many, the few can be sacrificed. Is this what you mean?"

"That's right."

Sakura nodded without hesitation.

"I am a member of the Tribunal. The duty of the Tribunal is to protect humanity at all costs, so I will work hard for this goal."

"Is it the same even if a small number of them are innocent people? Do you want to be a partner of justice?"

"I never thought of it that way, ARCHER."

Sakura shook her head.

"I understand what you mean. Indeed, I thought the same way when I was young. Aren't those who save mankind heroes? And aren't heroes partners of justice? But... my elder brother told me that this is not the case."

"oh?"

Upon hearing Sakura's answer, ARCHER raised his eyebrows.

"How to say?"

"Big brother said that the goal of the Tribunal is to protect mankind and protect the survival of mankind at all costs. Other things are not important. Perhaps in the eyes of others, this person will be regarded as a hero who saves mankind and a partner of justice. , but no matter what, you can’t look at yourself in this way.”

"Why."

ARCHER seemed to be very interested at the moment. He stared at Sakura curiously and asked.

"Isn't it a very beautiful wish to save mankind and save everything? Fighting for others, such an ideal..."

"This is not my ideal."

However, before ARCHER could finish his words, he was interrupted by Sakura shaking her head.

"Protecting humanity is the duty of the Inquisition, not an ideal, ARCHER. When you see yourself as a partner of justice, you project your own view of good and evil onto others. If you believe that you stand On the side of justice, will you still protect humans? If humans are evil in your opinion, will you still protect them? Or will you destroy them?"

"………………"

ARCHER frowned and stared at Sakura, silent.

"So, Big Brother said, the Tribunal is not a partner of justice. To us, it doesn't matter whether human beings are good or evil. What we protect is human civilization and this race. No matter what, we cannot let human beings be destroyed..."

Saying this, Sakura stretched out her hand and held the skull pendant on her chest.

"This is the philosophy of the Inquisition. Whether human beings are evil, kind, noble, base, stupid, or smart, it doesn't matter. Because what we protect is human beings themselves, not ourselves. Projecting one's own view of good and evil onto others and distinguishing righteousness from evil is meaningless to the Inquisition."

"Meaningless?"

"That's right."

Sakura nodded.

"The concepts of good and evil are not static, such as..."

As she spoke, Sakura looked at Tohsaka Rin.

"Take my sister for example."

"Why??"

Rin Tosaka, who was resting nearby, couldn't help but be stunned when he found that he was shot while lying down.

"In ancient times, it was not allowed for my sister to dress like this. In fact, even in modern times, in some civilizations, wearing a shameless miniskirt like my sister is also regarded as immoral, evil, and dirty. the behavior of………"

"………………"

For some reason, Tohsaka Rin felt like she had been stabbed hard by her sister. She stared at Sakura, who was wearing a long skirt and a close-fitting dress, with a slight resentment. Although it was winter at the moment, Sakura's graceful and curvy figure was still obvious...

You have such an amazing figure!

All sister has is these legs, okay?

"...So, are their ideas evil? From their perspective, they think our ideas are wrong. Becoming a partner of justice means destroying the evil you think, but everyone Everyone has a different view of justice, and even if they are fighting for justice, everyone has a different view of justice, and the results will be different."

Sakura said this and shook her head.

"Justice, freedom, these are all like this. Big brother said that fighting for ambiguous slogans is meaningless, and what is left is only emptiness and betrayal. Therefore, what the trial court pursues is only an extremely realistic choice--Guardian Humanity, as long as humanity does not perish, it means that we have fulfilled our responsibilities. On the other hand, once humanity perishes, no matter what excuses we use to cover it up, it will only prove our failure in the end. It's that simple."

"interesting."

After hearing Sakura's answer, ARCHER was silent for a moment and sneered.

"That is to say, for you, what is important is the result of saving the citizens of Fuyuki, so you don't care about the lives of SABER and its master, right?"

"It's true to say that, but I can understand it, sister. After all, magicians originally risk everything for the result, but what we are pursuing is not the source vortex."

"I see."

Although there were many places where he wanted to complain, Tohsaka Rin still sighed silently and stood up.

"Since Sakura said that, then I have nothing else to say. Indeed, compared to that idiot, the citizens of Fuyuki are more important. I will not sacrifice the entire city for one person. Just follow your plan, Sakura." bring it on."
