The universal wishing machine uses the existing source to perform miracles. According to the principle of equivalent exchange or the law of conservation of energy, it is impossible to stop the depletion of the source. However, it may be possible to transform humans so that they can still survive after depletion.
It is equivalent to the magical improvement of biochemical modifications studied in the United States.
The old world will become history, but mankind can survive. This is the relief that Ainsworth brought to mankind.
Using Miyu as a sacrifice to make a wish will allow humans to adapt to the new world environment and survive. This can be confirmed.
But these are just props and results, there are more important things to Ainsworth.
The following is Francesca's subjective speculation after using her ultimate illusion to spy on the mythological information in Krounpisi's mind and comparing it with the myths she knew. Of course, she did not tell Krounpisi.
Enpisi is not as easy to talk to as she seems, so she will find an opportunity to do a [Modify Spirit] operation and then erase the operation memory.
However, the following speculation contains a lot of Francesca's happy thoughts, but Crounpis thinks it is very credible, because Francesca's happiness has always been based on the reality of human nature's good and evil.
above.
First of all, we have to start with the depletion of the world. The world became like this because an important event that continued human history in the Age of Gods never happened——
In Greek mythology, Prometheus stole fire from the sky and gave it to mankind. Zeus, the supreme ruling god, was very angry. In order to offset the benefits of fire to mankind and strike a balance, Zeus decided to bring disaster to the world.
Zeus ordered the gods to create the woman Pandora, which meant the gods gave a gift to all mankind. He gave Pandora to Prometheus's brother.
Zeus gave Pandora a sealed box filled with scourges, disasters, plagues, etc., and asked her to give it to the man who married her. Prometheus was convinced that Zeus had ill intentions towards mankind, and warned his younger brother not to accept gifts from Zeus. But his younger brother
He ignored the advice and married the beautiful Pandora. Pandora was driven by curiosity and opened the box, so——
Disasters, plagues and scourges all flew out to cause harm to the world.
And before the "Hope" that Athena, the goddess of wisdom, quietly placed at the bottom of the box in order to save the fate of mankind, had time to fly out of the box, Pandora, who was extremely panicked, closed the box.
The box is called "pithos". Pithos is the name given to the wishing machine in the Holy Grail War in this world where there is no American game involved. It has no other meaning.
But in the Greek mythology in Cronpith's mind, Pithos represents Pandora's Box. After Francesca learned this information and the similarities and differences in Greek mythology, she easily deduced the differences in ancient mythology.
Every first-class magician who understands mythology can do it.
But in fact, it is only natural that no one has seen through the essence of the Holy Grail War before this, because it is almost impossible for people in this world to obtain information about the parallel world.
"Pfft!" The Gorgon sisters who were listening suddenly had a distorted expression.
As expected, the Gorgon sisters would be unhappy if they mentioned that the Gorgon goddess turned into Athena, the Gorgon monster. Anyway, Athena is just a cut scene, so let’s continue.
"Excuse me, what is Pandora's box?" Shirou couldn't help but ask. Anyway, the explanation had been interrupted by the Gorgon sisters.
"I want to know too." Meiyou agreed.
"It's natural that you don't know, because the Pandora's box of this parallel world has not been opened, so it does not appear in the public myth." Cronpis said.
"But," the person who raised his hand to ask the question this time was Leili, the vampire leopard girl's consultant, "when the disaster did not appear, why did it bring the world to the brink of destruction?"
Crownpis straightened her back and settled for a moment. Because Francesca came up with this reason on her own, she didn't have much confidence. She repeated: "The so-called disaster is just one side. Human beings have gained Prometheus."
The great benefits, but also lost the balance because of it. The gods have no intention of destroying human beings. Disasters are created by balancing the benefits. Even though it is only from the inside, humans still overdraw the world because of the so-called benefits, which makes the world overdrawn.
The great source of the world is beginning to dry up."
However, Gaia and Alaya seem to have no objection to this, otherwise someone should be sent to stop the current situation.
"So that's it," Shirou held up his chin and thought, "Disasters also have two sides, just like population growth was one of the conditions for a strong country in ancient times and was what every country wanted. However, today's population growth has become a condition for land and
In the Fuyuki City erosion incident five years ago, it was speculated that Ainsworth had already possessed Pandora's Box, tried to open it to obtain "Hope", and discovered the magical child of the Sakuzuki family.
"Wait a minute, so Miyu was targeted later?" Shirou was no longer calm.
"Probably," Crounpis casually opened a black crack and took out a Shuoyue family book that Lei Lili had found. "Shenzhi'er is not famous. Moreover, in its history, it has occasionally made accidental sacrifices to achieve most of the achievements.
People's wishes are not very powerful. The most they can achieve is to save the population of a big city or a small country from a disaster. But such a wish will sacrifice the life of a child."
"...This is already amazing." Yayaka, who has the most mediocre mentality, muttered.
"Meiyu, can your precious phantom still be used?" Crownpis asked, pointing at Miyu.
Miyu closed her eyes and felt it, nodded, and shook her head: "Yes, but only to the extent that skipping the process to achieve the result requires a huge consumption of magic power and vitality. Even with my current magic power, it will be difficult to realize most people's wishes.
impossible."
"Miyu?" Shirou obviously didn't know Miyu's current condition and was quite shocked.
"Like my brother, I can also fight." Miyu replied. Miyu is actually dead, which means that the corrosion rate is 100% and the servant status has been maintained.
"...Really." Shirou breathed a sigh of relief. Being replaced by the Heroic Spirit Emiya didn't make him feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he became a lot stronger and could use projection magic more easily, so he felt better for Miyu.
Feel good about your ability to protect yourself.
"You guys, do you know why I asked Miyu just now?" Crounpis tapped the table impatiently.
"What is it?"
If there were professional magicians present, the answer to the question would be clear, but there is not.
Crownpiss replied: "Einsworth's attempt to open Pandora's Box in order to obtain the universal wishing machine failed. Miyu has the ability to make a wishing machine, but it does not have the power to face the entire human world. So, what should we do?
