Not everyone is rich and generous, and if that were the case, the world would be a wonderful place.

Money comes like the wind to Kenshin Matou, and he can spend it all without hesitation to help the workers in this world who are as poor as he once was.

Gilgamesh was born rich, but for whatever reason, he did not give money to the audience.

So much so that——

Now all the major popular forums in the world are discussing this most ancient hero king. There are even technical experts who make all kinds of funny photoshopped pictures of Gilgamesh in the live broadcast. What's more, even the epic of Gilgamesh has been re-created. It can be said that this somewhat unpopular hero king has become popular again.

Fortunately, these things happened in a corner that Gilgamesh didn't know about.

It did not cause the king's thundering wrath.

otherwise……

He might take out the Sword of Separation that created the world and try to imitate the God of Creation in Jianchen Jianchen's hometown and perform a feat of creating the world.

But this is impossible.

First of all, Gilgamesh doesn't have that ability. As soon as he wants to destroy the world, the big boss in the dark will rush out and slap him in the face, letting him know that there are always people better than you, and that Gilgamesh is not qualified!

Secondly, although Gilgamesh's sword of separation has the prefix of creation of the world, he is not the real Pangu.

If Pangu really came, there would be no point in fighting the Holy Grail War.

Or……

This Holy Grail War is weird.

You said that I can summon mythical characters, and I can.

Gilgamesh and Medusa are examples.

You say it can really summon mythical characters, but it can’t.

Well, according to the mythology, we, the descendants of Yan and Huang, can summon Chiyou, Huangdi, Yandi, Pangu, and Nuwa... isn't that too much?

You see, we are all descendants of Yan and Huang, so it is reasonable to look for our own ancestors.

You see, the myth says that Nuwa created human beings, so it is reasonable for me to use myself as a holy relic and summon Nuwa.

You see, the textbook also said that it was Pangu who created the world, and the various parts of his body turned into the sun, the moon, the mountains, the long rivers...

Then it would be reasonable to summon Pangu.

In this way, Jianchen Jiantong summoned out Uncle Liu using his own affinity.

There's nothing wrong with Uncle Liu.

only……

Use yourself as a holy relic to summon Pangu and Nuwa from mythology.

The world is even more open and vast.

If these two gods were summoned, then...

Screw Gilgamesh, is he even a character?

pity……

……

……

The fun in the live broadcast room is just a glimpse of the difficult competition.

Those funny spectators can only make the contestants who are working hard to climb laugh for a while, and then continue to climb without any distractions.

of course there are exceptions.

Sakura, Illya, and Waver are working very hard to move forward.

Kenshin Matou, Miss Rin, Mrs. Irisviel, and Miss Altria, after resting last night, completely gave up.

On the snowy ground, four people were running at a constant speed.

This behavior was jokingly called by the audience as the "senior group of the competition."

At this moment, the culprit of the senior group, Jianchen Jian, was expressing his understanding to the three players around him and the audience in the live broadcast room.

"Sakura, she wanted to win so badly that's why she climbed with Medusa."

"The same goes for Waver and Illya."

"Gilgamesh, he's different, he's just a simple rebel."

"But actually..."

"If you think about it for a moment, you will understand that this competition is about the cooperation between the Master and the Servant. Both must reach the top of Mount Everest to win."

“But there is absolutely no need to be together.”

"Especially when the speed of the Servant and the Master is almost the same."

"Only when the speed difference between the Master and the Servant is huge, one needs to rely on the strength of the other to achieve an average value that allows both to reach the top the fastest."

"But it's different for the four of us."

Jianchen Matou was running at a steady speed without taking a breath. He explained to the three people around him:

"Mrs. Irisviel's situation is special, so only one person is needed to reach the summit, but this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Mrs. Irisviel has no reason to win. In other words, compared to this competition, Mrs. Irisviel should take a good look at the surrounding scenery and experience the process of conquering Mount Everest."

"Rin, you, you are also special."

"Among so many contestants, you are the only one who was abandoned by your own Servant. There is nothing you can do about it. The others are all betrayed by their fathers, but you were completely betrayed by your own father."

(Tousaka Tokiomi, who was watching the game at home, heard the voice of Matou Kenshin from his daughter's first-person perspective, and his face suddenly turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. He wondered in his heart whether the choice to summon Gilgamesh was really a wrong one.)
(He quickly dismissed the idea.)
(I am not wrong, it is this Holy Grail War that is wrong.)
(If the Holy Grail War had not changed, then the choice to summon Gilgamesh would have been a brilliant move no matter how you look at it.)
(Unfortunately there is no if…)
The four contestants in the senior group had no idea what the audience member Toosaka Tokiomi was thinking.

At this time, Miss Rin, after hearing the ridicule from Matou Kenshin, said unhappily, "What about you? You can stop saying that Altria's speed is just that. If you weren't such a bad master, Altria should be one of the top players."

"Of course." Jianchen Jianchen admitted his shortcomings without any pressure.

He said: "I know my own strength, so my goal from the beginning was not to win the championship, but to gain a slight advantage over people with similar strength to achieve higher results."

"As for those contestants whose abilities are similar..."

Kenshin Matou first looked at Miss Rin, then at Mrs. Irisviel, and finally his gaze fell on Miss Rin.

"Mrs. Irisviel has no desire for victory."

"That is to say..."

"This time we're competing for the last and second to last place, Rin."

Jianchen Matou came to the final conclusion.

“…………”Miss Lin.

Miss Lin could not accept this cruel reality. Being ranked last would become a dark history that she would never forget after experiencing it once.

Now Jianchen Matou told her that this dark history would most likely happen again!
How could Miss Lin accept such a result!

Can……

Matou Kenshin, wait!
Miss Rin discovered the blind spot!
There is something wrong with what Kenshin Matou said. Although they are ranked last, there is really only her and Kenshin Matou competing, which is fine, but the competition is not between the last and the second to last place.

And Mrs. Irisviel is here!
Thinking of this, Miss Lin's cold and pale face suddenly turned rosy again.

She glanced at Mrs. Irisviel quietly, and Mrs. Irisviel happened to look at her and smiled gently at that moment.

Miss Rin turned around quickly, almost turning into a steaming princess due to embarrassment.

"How could I have such a shameful thought..."

She was deeply ashamed of her thoughts, and made a decision in her heart that no matter what the ranking was, it must not be the last or second to last, and she must surpass Kenshin Matou!

The elderly group was leisurely and had time to chat.

The assault team has worked hard and is still working hard.

While Jianchen Jianchen and his group were still on their way, Medusa and others had already arrived at Camp No. 3 G7200: 7300- meters above sea level.

However, they did not linger, nor did they sleep soundly in the tent like Jianchen Jianchen and his friends, and talk about the past while looking at the stars and drinking wine at night.

Compared to reminiscing about the glorious past, what they desire more now is the present and victory!
After passing through the G3 camp, there is no more flat area. There is snow and steep slopes everywhere. Ordinary people will get injured if they are not careful. The contestants this time have strong physical fitness. Although they will not get injured, they will definitely slow down, so everyone is extremely careful.

Time passed as the contestants ran.

Following the ropes left by their forerunners, Medusa, Iskandar, Hercules, Gilgamesh and others finally arrived at Mount Lhotse, the fourth highest peak in the world.

Lhotse is a yellow rock mountain that is steep enough for glaciers and snow to cling to.

But this doesn't mean it's safe.

Compared with glaciers and snow, the slippery rock surface of Mount Lhotse is more dangerous.

However, the people who challenge Mount Everest this time are not ordinary people, but Masters and Heroic Spirits, so there is no danger, at most it will only delay the progress.

There is also a camp next to Mount Lhotse, Camp G4. The altitude at this time has reached about 7800 meters, which is a height that a normal person would feel very uncomfortable just staying there and doing nothing.

After passing through this camp, turn right and you will reach Lhotse Peak. Continue straight after Lhotse Peak and you will reach the final goal of the contestants - Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world.

Medusa, Hercules, Iskandar, and Gilgamesh successively reached the summit of Mount Lhotse. At this time, they and their masters could already see the true appearance of Mount Everest.

The peak is topped by clouds and is the highest weather vane on earth.

It represents that the wind speed at the peak is about level 9. The earliest pioneers who climbed Mount Everest used the height of the clouds to judge the wind speed at that time.

After crossing Lhotse Peak, we reached an altitude of 8000 meters.

Above 8000 meters is the line between life and death. This is the maximum altitude a normal person can withstand without oxygen.

At this moment, it is like a matter of one thought to heaven or one thought to hell.

Stepping back is almost 100% safe and means accepting all the beauty in the world.

To move forward means to walk on an endless road of twists and turns, and to give up all the happiness you have experienced.

This is a difficult choice, but this choice does not exist among the contestants because they themselves are miracles.

With the nods from their respective Masters, the vanguard servants continued to move forward.

The snow ahead was extremely smooth because it was often hit by strong winds, as if someone had cleaned it beforehand.

But this is impossible, because the height at this time is no longer something a normal person can adapt to.

Getting closer.

On the road ahead, the black rocks were loose. If a challenger came here, he would definitely regret not bringing a helmet. The Masters lying behind the Servants were observing curiously.

Natural disasters can neither harm Servants nor Mages who are protected by Servants.

Fortunately, the journey was smooth, and the strong man Hercules did not cause disasters such as landslides and avalanches due to his weight.

The current challenge difficulty is still average.

There is no upgrade to a hard difficulty mode.

Continuing forward, we arrived at an altitude of about 8350 meters. There is a flat area of ​​several dozen square meters, which is called the Balcony of Mount Everest by climbers.

The vanguard group rested here for a while without speaking.

They were all shocked by the wonders of the world and were speechless for a long time.

They moved. Iskandar and Weber moved first.

Waver and Iskandar did not communicate at this time, but they seemed to be in sync and understood each other's thoughts. Waver knew Iskandar's excitement, and Iskandar knew that Waver understood his actions, so the two continued to sprint towards the highest peak in silence.

Iskandar's eyes gleamed, and there seemed to be endless power in his body. That was the power that "Conquest" gave to King of Conquerors Iskandar.

After Iskandar and Waver set off, each servant looked at their Master and asked if they still needed to rest, but received the opposite answer.

That is: charge!

The first difficulty ahead was the soft snow area. The snow here was deep with one foot and shallow with another. It was really uncomfortable for the two strong men, Iskandar and Hercules.

But for Medusa and Gilgamesh, it is a rare advantage.

The changes brought about by this advantage are that Medusa has rushed to the first place, Gilgamesh has come to the second place, Iskandar, who was originally in the first place, has become the third place, and Hercules, who was originally in the second place, has become the fourth place and the last place.

This is bad news for others, but it is definitely good news for Sakura who is eager for victory.

——Victory is at hand!

"Medusa, speed up, I'm fine."

Sakura hugged Medusa tightly and gave her final order as the Master.

"I understand, Master."

The purple figure was moving quickly across the vast snow-capped mountains. To the naked eye, one couldn't even tell what was happening.

After breaking out of the soft snow, there was only one last obstacle left to reach the summit of Mount Everest, a steep rocky area, but this was not difficult for the Servant.

Medusa sprinted quickly. Because of her Master, she could not reach her fastest speed, but even so, Medusa still rushed to the front.

This is riding A+, and the intensity brought by the rider job.

It's near, it's near!
After going through all the difficulties, those who know the business know that the climb has been successful, and what remains is nothing more than reaching the top, which is not difficult at all.

But for climbers and competitors, this is the most critical moment!
"Iskander!"

"berserker!"

"rider!"

There were clearly four contestants, but only three spoke.

Because Gilgamesh was a lone wolf, he abandoned his Master.

But the speed does not change due to the level of moral character. Gilgamesh, who abandoned his master, is not slow at this time.

Just because of the difficult rocky obstacles ahead, he was now in almost the same position as Iskandar and Hercules!

charge! charge! charge!

The heroes charged forward desperately, and the elderly audience also came to the live broadcast rooms of these four people to watch the most exciting moments of the game.

The champion is about to be born!
who can that be?

It was the Sakura-Medusa duo that had always been in the lead, having the right timing, location, and people.

It is Gilgamesh who abandoned his Master, had strong physical strength, had no burden, and could exert his full speed.

It is the Weber-Iskandar duo who are eager to conquer, the designers of this competition, who enjoy the competition the most and want to climb to the top of Mount Everest the most.

The Hercules-Illya duo had an advantage in the early stages, but gradually fell behind due to various reasons. They really wanted to give their master a championship.

The audience held their breath.

Commentators from all over the world also held their breath, ready to cheer enthusiastically for the winner of this competition.

Fuyuki City, gymnasium.

Taiga Fujimura stared at the contestants' final sprint without blinking.

"It's close! It's close!"

She couldn't help but explain loudly:
"The champion of the competition has been decided..."

"It's Medusa who has always been in the leading position!"

"Who's the second? The second place is... Iskandar and Hercules arrived at almost the same time. Gilgamesh is at the end. It's not because Gilgamesh is slow, but..."

Fujimura Taiga noticed a detail that she couldn't wait to share with the audience: "Iskander and Hercules used the technique of crossing the finish line at the end of track and field competitions. They twisted their bodies just before reaching the finish line."

"In the end, the tallest contestant, Hercules, won the second place."

"Iskandar, who was at a physical disadvantage, could only get third place."

"It's a pity that contestant Gilgamesh didn't get into the top three."

"........."

Commentators from all over the world gave similar explanations, and audiences from all over the world cheered.

After a violent outburst of emotions.

The commentator and the audience then remembered that the game was not over yet. The four members of the retirement group... they had arrived at the G3 camp at this time, and it seemed that...

I want to rest for a night.

“…………”The audience of the competition.

“…………”Game commentary.

Five days later, this wonderful 'Conquer, Conquer the World's Highest Peak' competition came to a perfect end.

The final rankings are:
Sakura and Medusa team won the championship.

Ilia Hercules, runner-up.

Weber Iskandar, third place.

The combination of Matou Kenshin and Altria, fourth place.

Toosaka Rin and Gilgamesh, fifth place.

Mrs. Irisviel, the last one.

That’s right, Miss Rin finally got the second-to-last place.

If it weren't for Miss Altria, Kenshin Matou would definitely not have done this. Instead, he would have used his excellent acting skills to allow Miss Rin to rank at least one place higher than himself.

But unfortunately, Miss Altria is also a contestant in this competition.

Jianchen Matou cannot let her down.

In addition, not giving one's all in the game and deliberately letting up are behaviors that both Miss Altria and Miss Rin cannot accept.

So in a full sprint, Kenshin Matou is still slightly better than Miss Rin.

After all, I have held the Chixiao Sword for so many years and slept so much, so all these efforts were not in vain.

At the end of the race, the points from the previous racing event are counted.

The current points of the masters are:

Sakura, who won the championship twice, gets 16 points. (6 points for first place, 1 points for second place, and so on. Last place gets point.)
Webber, who finished third twice, has 8 points.

Illya, who was fourth once and runner-up once, has 8 points.

Mrs. Irisviel, who was once the runner-up and once last, has 6 points.

Kenshin Matou, who was ranked second to last once and third to last once, gets 5 points.

Miss Rin, who was ranked last once and second to last once, gets 3 points.

Well, although Miss Rin is no longer the last in this "Conquer, Climb the World's Highest Peak" competition, she is still the last in the Master's overall scoreboard.

This time, the fifth great magician clash of the Holy Grail War seems to be full of malice towards Miss Rin.

……

……

After the retirement team of Jianchen Matou and his four companions reached the summit, the competition was officially over.

But no one left.

Because the competition was not over yet and they didn't want to stay in the breeze on the top of the mountain, Sakura, Medusa, Iskandar, Hercules and the others left first and went to play their own games.

At this moment, after seeing that Kenshin Matou and the others had also completed the competition and the competition was finally over, the servants who were not restricted by the competition, brought their masters and quickly reached the top of the mountain.

No one discussed it, but everyone understood it tacitly.

After the competition, of course, there will be a banquet. And what better venue to hold a banquet than the highest peak in the world?
Most people may feel stressed in such an environment.

But they are not ordinary people.

The contestants were either magicians or servants, and the altitude of only ten thousand feet was nothing at all.

The banquet venue has been confirmed.

But there are still no tents, dining tables or food.

But this is not difficult.

If it were a normal person, it would be impossible to bring the above things to the top of Mount Everest.

Even modern aircraft cannot reach such altitudes.

But this has nothing to do with Jianchen Matou and his group.

Ordinary planes are not allowed, but they have extraordinary planes. Not to mention airplanes, they even have spaceships!
"Is that right, Gilgamesh?"

Jianchen Matou looked at Gilgamesh, and Gilgamesh wisely summoned his spaceship "Vimana", but he had no intention of going down to get the tent and food.

Everyone looked at each other, and finally Iskandar stood up.

He laughed twice, without forcing himself, as he was very interested in flying a spaceship.

When he took his Master Waver to prepare food.

Jian Tong Jianchen waved his hand and the live broadcast was closed instantly.

Everyone sat together and admired the scenery at the foot of the mountain.

After the banquet, it was time to discuss the next competition.

At this time, Sakura stood up.

Sakura, who won the championship twice, leaned on Medusa's shoulder, her love for her servant almost overflowing.

She said to the people around her, "I've already thought of the game. When we get home, we can start the game. Well... it's a simple game and it's over quickly."

Sakura finished her sentence and looked towards her brother.

Nothing was said, and yet everything was said.

Two championships, plus the next competition was designed by herself, which means that if nothing unexpected happens, she will soon have three championships.

The value of three championships is that as long as she is not always at the bottom of the subsequent competitions, victory is almost inevitable.

In short, four words: the advantage is mine!

Sakura was full of confidence.

Miss Rin, who was sitting in the corner and was in a bad mood, felt very complicated when she looked at her sister who was in high spirits at the moment. She recalled the night when she summoned servants in the basement at the beginning of the Holy Grail War.

At that time, she thought victory was just around the corner. (End of this chapter)
