Chapter 386 Background
In the work Fate Zero.
Jing Yu mainly added in the video website version and the content is still about Artoria's plot.
For example, in the fsn game plot, about the past of the King of Knights.
Of course, to expand this plot, Jing Yu can combine its historical version and work version.
What kind of image King Arthur was in history? Jing Yu just used pictures to represent it. There is too much content, and the additional content in these works is too long and will affect the audience's viewing experience.
But the image of King Arthur in this drama...
In the version broadcast by the three major video websites last week, Jing Yu shot about five minutes of footage at the end of the filming.
These clips are basically shot from the content in the original fsn game...
Of course, these are far from enough, and a large amount of text introduction is needed.
Well... these are naturally the benefits for website payers.
For the audience, this plot expansion about Artoria has undoubtedly made Artoria, played by Tang Rui, the focus of the show during this week.
Moreover... they were also shocked by the world view in this drama.
In the fifth century AD in the Blue Star world, the Roman Empire was invaded by foreign enemies, and the British Isles under the Roman Empire also fell into a struggle. Uther Pendragon, one of the princes of the British Isles, and one of his magicians
Merlin, plans to create a new king...
This is the premise for Arturia's birth. As a woman, she cannot directly inherit the throne, but she only sleeps three hours a day, and receives a lot of martial arts and knowledge related to being a king.
After the old king Uther passed away, his men proposed to choose a new king by pulling out the sword from the stone.
But... no one can pull out the sword in the stone. No matter whether they are strong soldiers or brave knights, no one can pull out the sword in the stone.
Until this moment... Artoria, who had been receiving knowledge training from the crown prince despite concealing her identity as a descendant of King Uther, stood in front of everyone...
"Once you draw this sword, you will no longer be the little girl you were in the past..."
These were the words that the magician Merlin said to Arturia in her mind before she drew the sword.
Without any hesitation, she naturally drew out the sword that symbolized the king!
From this moment on, time stopped for her. The power of the sword in the stone and the scabbard made her body and age stay at this moment forever. She was fifteen years old...the most beautiful moment.
After becoming a queen, in order to hide her true gender, she married a queen, Guinevere, as a king.
Lancelot, the chief knight of the Knights of the Round Table, fell in love with Guinevere.
The girl who was chosen as the king because she pulled out the sword in the stone, Artoria Pendragon.
Because he was too brave and took the lead when charging on the battlefield, he was regarded by the soldiers as an undefeated god of war.
But...a king who has an ageless appearance, is at the forefront of every war, and yet never dies...for a long time, he is destined to be feared by the people around him.
Because she accidentally violated the spirit of chivalry during the battle, the sword in the stone broke. Merlin brought her a new sword "The Sword of Promise to Victory" from the holy lake!
Victory in the war must be obtained at a corresponding price, squeezing a village's supplies to reorganize its armaments.
Before the aliens invade, she must first destroy the aliens. If a small number of people can be sacrificed in advance before a war begins in exchange for the survival of more people, then she will do it without hesitation.
But... not understood by the people around me.
The benevolent king is not a qualified king, so she...never reveals her feelings, rewards and punishments are clear, and there is no partiality.
But...the soldiers were dissatisfied with such a king.
"King Arthur doesn't understand people's hearts."
How can a selfish person accept the leadership of a selfless King?
Lancelot and Guinevere's affair was exposed. Although Artoria didn't mind her princess' affair with her knights, she was the king and couldn't do it for personal gain, so...she killed Guinevere herself.
Weier was sentenced to death at the stake.
Although Lancelot and Guinevere had an affair, they were true love. Lancelot interfered with the execution and took away Guinevere.
On the other side, a character who looked similar to Artoria suddenly appeared. Moredre claimed to be her descendant. In fact... it was indeed...
Moredre is an artificial human created by Artoria's sister, the Demon Queen Morgan, using Artoria's blood.
But during a war, Arturia led an expedition to Rome, and during this period, Mordred rebelled at the instigation of Morgan.
Those subordinates who were dissatisfied with Artoria's selflessness also joined Mordred's rebel army.
In this case, both Artoria and Mordred were injured. Mordred was killed by Artoria, but she herself was seriously injured.
Lancelot, his former subordinate, is now leading troops to aid Artoria.
At Camlan's Hill, Artoria looked at the mess. After she and Mordred died in the battle, Britain was about to face the crisis of annihilation...
On the hill where the corpses of British soldiers were piled up, she looked at all this with sad eyes.
She gave up her identity as a woman and became a king...
She gave up her emotions just to become a king who was beneficial to the people...
She killed countless enemies for the sake of the kingdom...
I fight for this country, for the people, for the soldiers...
However, this is how the country ended up.
Artoria cannot accept this ending...
While she was ordering her men to return the Sword of Victory to the Holy Lake, in the last stage of her life, she was reflecting on her mistakes as a king.
She...regrets becoming king.
If she hadn't been the king...this country, and her soldiers, wouldn't have faced the impending end.
At Kamlan's Hill, Alaya signed a heroic spirit contract with her regarding the consciousness of the world.
[She will definitely "obtain and use the Holy Grail while alive!" After obtaining the Holy Grail and realizing her wish, she will become a true heroic spirit after death. 】
This is the content of the contract.
So actually, in Jingyu's previous life, why did Artoria retain the memory of the Fourth Holy Grail War during the Fifth Holy Grail War?
Because her consciousness shuttled between the two Holy Grail Wars while she was alive, instead of being embodied by the Holy Grail after her death like other heroic spirits.
When other heroic spirits die in the Holy Grail War, they will not return to their original bodies in history, and will not have any impact on the prototype characters in history, but she is different... When she was summoned to participate in the Fourth Holy Grail War,
Her body is not dead yet. If she hadn't fulfilled her wish because she met Shirou Emiya in the Fifth Holy Grail War, then she might still appear in the next Holy Grail War.
Because the contract she signed is that if she does not obtain the Holy Grail and fulfill her wish, she will participate in the Holy Grail War countless times at the end of her life and will not die until she wins.
For this plot, Jing Yu removed the part of the Fifth Holy Grail War last week and presented it to the audience through some short videos and text descriptions.
Of course, Jing Yu has also considered whether doing this would be a spoiler to the audience.
But after thinking about it a little bit, he figured it out.
Although fz is the prequel of fsn, in fact, fz came out later than fsn.
In other words, watching fsn does not affect the experience of watching fz.
In other words, only viewers who fully understand the plot of the game Fate Stay Night can appreciate the plot highlights of Fate Zero to the greatest extent.
Therefore, there is no pressure at all for Jing Yu to reveal these stories about Artoria’s background.
Otherwise, if these things are not disclosed, the audience will definitely not be able to understand the plot of the final battle between the Berserker class Lancelot and Arturia in Fate Zero in the Fourth Holy Grail War.
but......
All I can say is that the character of Artoria is indeed very attractive.
Especially for these viewers in Dazhou...
A young girl who aspired to become a king and lead Britain into a powerful country since she was a child, ended up being betrayed by the people of her own country...
It's just because she is too powerful that she is feared by the people.
Just because she was too selfless, she was criticized as "King Arthur, he doesn't understand people's hearts."
Even until the end, I regretted becoming the king, feeling that if I had not become the king, the fate of Britain would have been rewritten.
Seeking the power of the Holy Grail is just a wish to go back to the day when I pulled out the sword from the stone, and choose not to pull out the sword and become the king.
Such a character... who doesn't like it?
The audience doesn't care whether this setting is magical or not. Anyway, the history of the different world can be set whatever Jing Yu wants.
Anyway, the character of Artoria...
Before the second episode of Fate Zero was released tonight, there were overwhelming discussions in major film and television forums.
Many viewers of the TV series were confused when they watched the viewers of those video websites and forums discuss a series of remarks about King Arthur, Artoria, the Sword in the Stone, Merlin, the Kingdom of Britain, and the Holy Grail...
Are we really watching the same show?
The plot of the expanded version of Teacher Jing Yu’s video website....
How much did you expand?
It’s only one yuan and five episodes, why don’t you fight so hard!
Doesn’t this force us TV station users to go to video websites for secondary consumption?
Chapter completed!
