Previously, from above, there was a wide river here with a bridge over it, but since it’s no longer connected to a source of water, it has become stagnant. If it’s been a while, survival might become an issue.
After all, they can’t come to Pandora to gather materials.
"Such a small fragment fell in such an uninhabitable environment, quite unlucky. But the world barrier is strong, it’s not the one from Rainforest 02, but this city’s own, which is somewhat unexpected."
Tao Yu stood at the edge of the collapsed city, beside a small grove, and reached out to touch the world barrier in front of him.
Treya’s expression was also somewhat grave.
"There might be even stronger world suppression inside. Be careful, and we’ll retreat at the first sign of something wrong."
After a while, the world barrier slowly dissolved a crack, and then Tao Yu and Treya stepped through it, into the small grove.
As soon as they entered, they didn’t feel any extreme world force suppression. In fact, the suppression was even less than that of Pandora World, instead allowing them to return to their peak strength.
However, they both felt an ominous sense of foreboding at the same time, as if this world seemed somewhat chaotic!
Tao Yu stood at the entrance of the world barrier, channeling his True Yuan and Qi-Blood, carefully sensing the changes.
"I have a bad feeling about this place; it feels like danger is everywhere. Maybe we should retreat first."
Treya, although no longer suppressed by Pandora and back at her peak, was already thinking about beating a retreat because of that feeling.
"It seems there’s no threat nearby. From what we saw above, everyone seemed to be just ordinary people. It should be a very peaceful city. Let’s find someone to ask."
Since Tao Yu had said so, even though Treya from the Floating City was reluctant to remain in a perilous situation, she still nodded her head.
With his strength back at his peak, Tao Yu thought that ’asking’ ordinary people wouldn’t be a big problem.
The place where they had arrived was a small grove, but through the gaps in the trees, they could see some buildings ahead.
Their clothing matched well with the world they were in. After Tao Yu put the Black Iron Heavy Sword into the Corpse Hiding Mirror, there was nothing to make them stick out.
Following the path through the small grove, they arrived behind a few houses built adjacent to a hill, with a road in front of them.
This led Tao Yu to quickly locate an old lady who was moving a chair to sit on the street, basking in The Sun while looking confusedly at the sky.

"Old lady, where is this place and how many days has this change been going on around here?"
Tao Yu mixed in a suggestion, and naturally, there was no chance of failure with such elderly people.
"This is Fuyuki City. The electricity has been out for almost a week. Before, people from the Fujimura Group came to have everyone tally up the food and supplies..."
The old lady spoke slowly, but her words made Tao Yu’s scalp tingle.
A peaceful little town like Fuyuki City?
This place that only had a minor gas explosion, holding a ’secret’ Holy Grail War?
No wonder just one city could generate such a strong world will barrier!
If it’s Fuyuki, then it wouldn’t be surprising!
"Yu, what is this? It just appeared out of nowhere."
At that moment, Treya’s voice came into Tao Yu’s ears, and then he saw her extending her hand towards him, revealing a strange pattern appearing on the back of her hand.
She was chosen by the Holy Grail!
Then Tao Yu also lifted his own hand to look, and almost the moment his gaze fell upon it, accompanied by a slight pain, three Command Spells also formed on the back of his hand.
Heh, I’ve been chosen too...
Now it was a matter of figuring out if things were already in chaos, and also determining the current approximate time...
"I don’t know if the Holy Grail has gone mad and is randomly issuing Command Spells, or if the original participants haven’t yet arrived in Fuyuki and were stripped away. This Holy Grail, it’s probably another corrupted world will..."
Tao Yu quickly sorted through his knowledge of fate; in zero, saber shattered the Holy Grail, which seemed to contain filth.
This thing is most likely a fallen Heart of the World!
But apart from the Holy Grail, it seems difficult to access any other systems here. Even if a Heroic Spirit is killed, they return to the Holy Grail, as that’s intrinsic to the war mechanism.
However, thinking of killing Heroic Spirits made Tao Yu twitch his mouth, recalling the exaggerated ’gas explosions’ from the anime.
Treasure tools that could devastate a city and irrational causality-locking attacks – they had the power to suppress his own and troublesome instant-kill moves against individuals.
But accounting for strength, he reckoned he should still be comparable to normal Heroic Spirits. The Yin-Yang Five Elements Divine Thunder was, in some ways, a powerful anti-personnel Noble Phantasm!
"But it’s good; this is a world I understand very well. I’m glad I used to really like fate, zero, fsn, and ubw, I’ve watched them all, and even played the card game for a while. I’m very familiar with the plot. Whether there are major changes or minor ones, I have the advantage when it comes to information."
Tao Yu felt very confident!
First step: summon my own Heroic Spirit. Then my side will be equivalent to having two Heroic Spirits, and with Treya and her Heroic Spirit, a 4-way fight might be troublesome, but if it’s a 5-way, that’s my advantage!
Tao Yu, who hadn’t seen the HF route, held on to his confidence...
