Chapter 75: The Starting Point of the Final Holy Grail War Battle!
"Really?!" Upon hearing Chen Gong's words, Gudako's sleepiness instantly vanished, and her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Chen Gong didn't answer directly but smiled, pushing up his glasses, causing them to emit a cold glint, and his lips formed a smirk.
"Well then, the question is, where is Zhuge Liang right now? You must know, Chen Gong!" Gudako eagerly leaned closer, her face flushed.
Hearing that Zhuge Liang was nearby, Gudako's spirits soared.
"Of course, I know. I just caught a whiff of Zhuge Liang's scent," Chen Gong replied with a sniff, closing his eyes. He continued, "By following his scent, I can track him down."
Mashu, who was sitting nearby, found it somewhat unbelievable and displayed an expression of astonishment. "Impressive, Chen Gong-san!"
"Hehehe." Chen Gong chuckled coldly, pushing up his glasses with his hand. Then he suddenly spread his arms wide, leaning backward slightly. "No one understands Zhuge Liang better than me!"
In terms of strategy, perhaps he would be inferior to Zhuge Liang by one move. But when it came to understanding Zhuge Liang, there was indeed no one better than him. Who else had detonated Zhuge Liang over ten times every day? Moreover, if they encountered highly repetitive battles, detonating him hundreds of times a day was not out of the question!
"That's great! Let's set out and bring Zhuge Liang... I mean, invite him back!" Gudako paused, realizing that her words might lead to misunderstandings. She reconsidered and changed her phrasing.
She was just bringing back the great strategist Zhuge Liang to join Chen Gong's loyal team. What could be wrong with that?
As it seemed they were about to head out for a confrontation, Mashu immediately stood up with a solemn expression. She asked, "Shall we depart now, senpai?"
After bandaging the two holes on her buttocks for a while, they... returned to their original state as if the two stabs during the day were just an illusion.
Regarding the half of a sword and the fork they had brought back, they carefully analyzed them and discovered that they were merely a pair of plastic utensils painted silver to appear like iron.
Upon learning this, Mashu was initially frustrated for a few minutes. As a shielder, she had been penetrated by a mere pair of plastic utensils! This debt must be repaid, especially to Galahad, who entrusted her with the protection of his Saint Graph!
"That's right, there's no better time than the present. Let's depart immediately and bring back Zhuge Liang. That way, Chen Gong can unleash his Noble Phantasm anytime!" Gudako exclaimed, showcasing the Command Seals on the back of her right hand.

"And, because of the time difference between this Singularity and Chaldea, it's already the next day in Chaldea, so my Command Seals have been restored. With that, I can revive Zhuge Liang... and then let loose!" Gudako exclaimed.
"Understood, senpai..." As Gudako described the situation, Mashu couldn't help but facepalm with a few dark lines on her forehead.
They hadn't even captured Zhuge Liang yet, but Gudako was already contemplating the battery life of Chen Gong's Noble Phantasm. It was like thinking about the grave plot before the child was even born.
Although Mashu sympathized with Zhuge Liang's unfortunate fate in her mind, she didn't voice it out loud. After all, either Merlin or Zhuge Liang would die. Someone would always die.
After making what could barely be considered preparations, the group set off.
Just before their departure, Gudako suddenly remembered something and turned to Chen Gong. "Ah... right, we should bring Merlin along too."
"Oh? Is he going to be a backup plan?" Chen Gong's glasses glimmered, understanding Gudako's intention as a fellow traveler. While Merlin's support wasn't as strong for him compared to Zhuge Liang, if they considered Merlin alone, he would be an acceptable backup option.
Listening to their conversation, Merlin, who was bound to a chair, had just sighed in relief, thinking he wouldn't be used as ammunition. But immediately after, he became tense again, struggling in the chair. If it weren't for the gag in his mouth, he would probably be shouting for Fou to save him.
With a snap of his fingers, Chen Gong summoned a Servant. A towering figure clad in crimson armor, with a muscular and dark-skinned body, appeared beside him. This was L Bu, also known as General L, in his Berserker class manifestation.
Seeing Gudako and the others summon yet another Servant out of nowhere, Kiritsugu felt his mind go numb. Wasn't summoning a Servant supposed to be an extremely difficult task? Wasn't it usually possible only with the Holy Grail? Why did he feel like these people could casually summon a bunch of Servants?
To be honest, even if they summoned a strengthened legion of Servants all at once, Kiritsugu wouldn't be surprised at this point.
"General L, please take him away," Chen Gong instructed.
The robust man in crimson armor nodded and casually tucked the gloomy Merlin under his arm.
"Very well, let's go!" The group gathered on the balcony, and Gudako, with a determined expression, pointed forward and delivered a cool opening line to start their departure.
Then she climbed onto Mashu's back, preparing to use her as a mount. It would be strange for a Master to run alongside her Servants on foot, so she needed someone to carry her forward.
At times like these, she regretted not bringing the Red Hare steed. If she had brought the Red Hare, she could ride it with pride and watch the fireworks.
Lying on Mashu's back, Gudako silently made up her mind. The next time she went to a Singularity, she would definitely bring the Red Hare as well!
---------------------------------
On the other hand, Zhuge Liang sat in front of the TV, anxiously watching the screen. Suddenly, he felt a jolt running through his body, a strange and uncomfortable sensation. It was like having a mosquito land on his skin while trying to use the restroom.
As Zhuge Liang sensed this unsettling feeling, he immediately stood up. "There can be no mistake, this is... the aura of a demon!"
