In the evening, almost as usual, Tohsaka Rin led his followers to the ruins of the Emiya Palace. When he saw the fierce tattooed bald "civilian construction team" who were busy cleaning up the ruins in the yard, Tohsaka, who was born as a eldest lady, was immediately frightened.
Of course, she couldn't have been frightened by these fierce-looking ordinary people. The person who really made Miss Tohsaka scream was Shirou Emiya, who was commanding a group of gangsters.
"Is this guy finally forced by life to join the gang?" Rin murmured to himself in a low voice next to me, "Or is it that Emiya's distant cousin who is the boss of the Yamaguchi-gumi has finally found this man whom he lost contact with in his early years?
Blood relatives?"
Something might come out of this young lady's mouth if no one cares about it. Facts have proved that all young ladies in the world are the source of chaos. Lin Xue has learned from the past.
"Tohsaka-san!" Emiya, who was commanding the "Tengcun Labor Brigade", had already seen Tohsaka's arrival and hurried over to say hello, "I'm sorry to see you in such a mess."
"Well, you've been in quite a mess these past few days anyway."
Tohsaka, are you mocking me?
"But if these people are here, it will be a bit troublesome."
Looking at the workers who were busy working in the yard, Tohsaka Rin showed a distressed look on her face. It was obvious that she had not thought that the Emiya house would suddenly become a construction site before, or rather, she had already thought of it.
Sooner or later, Emiya's house would have to be renovated, but she never expected that Emiya, who lived alone and seemed to have no background, would have such a resolute and energetic guardian.
Tohsaka is of course referring to the fact that it will be troublesome to discuss matters related to the Holy Grail War here, and looking at this, I am afraid that there will be these idle people stationed at Emiya Residence for a long time in the future, although Fujimura has given these people
The death order is not allowed to disturb Emiya's normal life, but after all, they are ordinary people. It is better to keep them away from something like the Holy Grail War, where ordinary people will be dead if they touch even a little bit of skin.
"Let's go to my house," Tohsaka finally sighed helplessly, "I can't help but go there this time. Ah, is there an alien uncle coming too?"
Alien...Uncle...you did it on purpose, right? Wasn't it just the nameless unlucky hero who let go last night? Do you need to hold such a grudge?
Compared to the half-baked Emiya Shirou, Tohsaka Rin, who is a magic expert, obviously pays more attention to the layout of the "base camp". When I walked into the European-style mansion with black and red as the main exterior colors, which seemed to have been around for a long time, I immediately
I felt the slightly trembling energy fluctuations in the nearby air. These fluctuations were complex and precise. It was obvious that they were not formed overnight. It seemed that they were the resonance of countless defenses and alarm barriers formed by countless years of improvement and addition. Of course,
It was impossible for the half-experienced Emiya himself to detect the mystery of this empty-looking large bungalow. He was just surprised and admired the high-end and tasteful Western-style decorations around him, and together with him
Also impressed was Saten Ruiko, who also came from an ordinary background and thought she had little knowledge.
"She is indeed the eldest lady of the Tohsaka family. This mantelpiece looks very aristocratic. If you come here in early spring, you will definitely scream," said Ruiko, a super Jiraiko who is absolutely uninhibited in any house.
The familiar character finally lost control again, and now he came to the fireplace full of novelty, "Wow, is this ivory? It's so lifelike~~"
Hey, silly girl, what are you surprised about? The keychain I gave you a few days ago was cut from Northrend imperial amber. You can sell it in the Eastern Kingdom and you can buy it in a three-room apartment within the second ring of Silvermoon City.
Liangting, our family is rich!
Ruizi's affinity has always been a miracle. Tohsaka looked at this energetic girl without any impatience on his face. He just curled his lips slightly depressedly: "If it weren't for the fact that they are all commemorative things, it would still be...
It’s better to sell it for money.”
Uh, this statement is really... eh, wait a minute.
"I said, in fact, you have sold them for money, right?"
I shrugged dumbfounded and pointed at the so-called ivory sculpture, "This thing is 100% plastic!"
"How is that possible!" Tohsaka immediately exclaimed, then stood in front of the fireplace, "These are genuine things!"
Yep, due to various subtle reasons, my skills in identifying fakes are at the pinnacle. Even the imperial officer who sold plastic jade all over North China fell into disgrace in front of me. Do you think you
Will the fact that most of the valuable things in this living room have been sold and replaced with fakes escape the eyes of this head of state?
When I revealed the most embarrassing secret in my life, Miss Tosaka, who was not very thick-skinned, immediately blushed, and then awkwardly diverted everyone's attention: "Ah haha... Since you are here, you are guests.
, you’re welcome, please sit down, haha...archer! Pour some tea!"
The man in red shrugged at me with a depressed look, and reluctantly switched into his butler form.
Now that they have formed an alliance, it is essential to exchange the intelligence they have collected. Emiya himself, who was overwhelmed by the vigorous alien landing, naturally has nothing of value to offer. As for what Saber mentioned, someone spied on Emiya at night.
There is too little information about the situation in the mansion, and the target of suspicion is too vague to be of reference value. However, there seems to be no breakthrough progress in Tohsaka, except for signs of magician activities and a mysterious figure found near the park.
The unlucky heroic girl who appeared was defeated by a combination of a furry girl and a small pet, and the information she could provide was not much.
"It seems that they have all gone into hibernation. They are not taking the initiative to attack. Do you want to sit back and wait to take advantage?" Tohsaka frowned and put together the information. "It is different from the previous recorded Holy Grail War situations. This time it is too special."
It’s a little calmer.”
"No," Hong A, who was pouring tea, reminded, "Rin, you have forgotten a crucial factor: the several battles that broke out so far that were supposed to be between heroic spirits were actually supposed to be full-scale wars.
The triggers of the incident have been stirred up by the photography enthusiasts club from Centauri.”
"Ah, that's it, I was negligent."
You are sincerely trying to make things difficult for me today, right?
Little Bubble immediately stretched out her hand and cheered to show her presence. Apparently she understood that the situation mentioned by Red A just now was related to her, and the little girl took it as her own credit.
"But I really didn't expect that Chen Jun already has a daughter, and she is so powerful."
Emiya looked at Little Bubble with surprised eyes and praised him sincerely. Immediately, another voice came from my collar: "Dingdang is also very powerful! Don't ignore Dingdang~~"
"Uh, and this magical little creature...ah, sorry, sorry, I don't mean any harm!"
As soon as Dingdang's dangerous eyes glanced over, Emiya, who had already been tortured by this petty little creature in the morning, quickly apologized. The experience of having thorns growing under his armpits once was enough. God knows next time this little guy is going to let it grow on himself.
Something comes out.
"Since no one takes the initiative, it seems that we are the only one to muddy the waters first," Tohsaka put down his tea cup and said after thinking for a long time, "There are already unidentified heroic spirits spying on Emiya, which shows that it is possible
There is an enemy in the dark that has targeted us, and it will be very detrimental to us if this situation lasts for too long."
"By the way, in that case, wouldn't the workers in my house be in danger?" Emiya asked nervously. This behavior of thinking about the safety of others beforehand and forgetting that he was the enemy's target immediately made Tohsaka helpless again.
Shake his head.
"If you are not at home these days, they will be safe. The Holy Grail War must be hidden from the eyes of ordinary people. No magician is willing to break this rule unless necessary, and that sneaky heroic spirit will definitely be able to find out.
Are you at home?"
"Ah, that's it." Wei Gong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then, all we have left is to take the initiative and break the strange stalemate now," Tohsaka nodded and said, "In this case, I suddenly thought of a very interesting piece of information I got the day before yesterday."
"At Liudong Temple, a very brief fluctuation of magic power broke out."
"Ryudouji Temple?!" Emiya immediately exclaimed, "How is that possible? Tohsaka-san, didn't you say before that there was never any sign of magician activity in that direction?"
"You can only know this if you go and investigate," Tohsaka spread his hands, "Ryuudou Issei lived there. If a magician really chooses that place as a battlefield or even as a base camp, Yu Qingyu
Lidu should go there as soon as possible to investigate the situation."
Emiya could see that Tohsaka was not joking. The place called Ryudou Temple might indeed have been occupied by an unknown magician. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "In that case, go and investigate."
There’s nothing wrong with it, but if you attack the enemy’s base camp rashly like this, won’t the enemy set a trap or something?”
"It doesn't matter," I raised my hand, "We will participate this time too."
"I'm glad you said that, but why do I think you look as if you're ready to go on an outing?" Tohsaka immediately showed a suspicious look, showing that we are a group of unstable elements with unpredictable strength and erratic actions.
Full of doubts came out, "Although they are all very powerful, I am really worried that Ryudou Temple will become the second Emiya ruins."
Well, it’s completely impossible to refute it, and it’s even involved in the entire Holy Grail War, which is just an outing for us.
The fighting power was suddenly guaranteed, and Emiya's confidence was also full. Perhaps it was the impact of knowing about Sakura in advance, or perhaps the Emiya of this world was more decisive than the original, so he immediately agreed with Tohsaka.
The plan just makes a few requirements: first, we must avoid harming the ordinary people living in Ryudou Temple. Second, if possible, just defeat the enemy's heroic spirits, and don't harm the lives of the magicians there.
, this second request seemed a bit pedantic to Tohsaka, but considering that her side was already a bit foul in combat effectiveness, she still nodded in agreement.
"Hmph, it's as if victory has been achieved. Such arrogant remarks."
Red A and Emiya have always disliked each other, so even if nothing happened, the former would habitually make a sarcastic comment to Emiya, who was now full of confidence in punishing evil and promoting good, but before the two quarreled, I said something
Everyone calmed down: "I'm sure of winning in the first place. My tactic is to use seven or eight landing pods to smash the heroic spirit over once the battle begins. If there is still life, let Xiaobubu and Leizi go up and lift the bricks.
Damn, if you can still breathe, let Pandora and Visca go up and cut the body apart. If it’s not dead yet, we’ll turn on the invisible force field and come back for barbecue.”
It was very obvious that Tohsaka Emiya, Saber Red, and others were trembling very obviously.
Like most temples, Ryudou Temple was built in the mountains. This temple built in the middle of Enzo Mountain has a long history, but after the Holy Grail War began, it never entered Tohsaka's sight. According to the following
According to the reporter, there was no magician's magic or other noticeable things near Ryudongji Temple, but now, we have discovered something fishy.
Looking up at the high stone steps in front of the mountain gate of Liudong Temple, I expressed my discovery: "The entire mountain is shrouded in a barrier. This barrier directly invokes the power of nature and affects the energy.
The spirit body has strong suppressive power, so Tohsaka, you didn't discover the magic power fluctuation hidden here before. Creatures such as heroic spirits should have a decrease in strength after forcibly passing through the barrier. Therefore, when it comes to the base camp,
I’m afraid no magician’s base can compare to this pure natural barrier.”
"I wonder which lucky guy discovered this place," Tohsaka said with jealousy after hearing my analysis. "In this case, maybe we should be careful? If we can occupy such a unique place, there is no reason for the other party not to use it.
The nearby powerful natural spiritual veins are laying out formations."
It seems that you don’t know what kind of bipedal nuclear bombs are following you around, missy.
The mountain gate in front of Liudong Temple is the only place where there is no barrier. If you don't want to lose strength due to forcing yourself through the barrier, breaking through from here is the only way. Of course, the enemy will definitely arrange an attack at this only weak point.
That’s it.
So, a large group of people, like strange tourists visiting the temple at midnight, climbed up the high steps of Liudong Temple. Along the way, Leizi actually took out a digital camera and took pictures everywhere, claiming to be
I wanted to take a picture of the floating spirit that is said to only appear around the ancient temple at midnight, but I was very curious whether this girl wanted to use this method to prove her identity as a Centaur photography enthusiast, and Little Bubble pulled Shan along.
Dora kept squirming and asking questions, looking like a child who was going out to play with adults for the first time.
The atmosphere of this kind of outing-like operation is naturally not comparable to the so-called storming the enemy's position. Even Tohsaka and Saber, who have always been very serious, became more and more relaxed as they walked. Even when they were approaching the mountain gate, Tohsaka had already started chatting with Ruizi.
The topic of weight loss was so popular that when we finally arrived at the mountain gate, a tall and thin man wearing an ancient Japanese samurai uniform suddenly appeared in front of us, holding a long and narrow sword like a bamboo pole.
Everyone was stunned for a long time, and then Tohsaka belatedly called out: "Ah, are you an enemy?"
Facts have proved that people who hang out with the empire's top officials will be stained sooner or later.
"It's really... it's an unprecedented 'enemy'." A blue vein flashed across the face of the man with a bamboo pole in front of the mountain gate. "From the number to the character, it's unprecedented... But it's okay, at least it's not the same as the past few days.
That kind of guy who is weak but extremely difficult to deal with, then, do you want to pass from now on?"
I glanced at him sideways: "Nonsense, how much are the tickets?"
It's cold.
"Can I take what you just said as a provocation?" Although he seems to be a very calm guy, the bamboo pole man is obviously very angry at this kind of ignorance and ridicule. At the same time, he is also secretly observing the person in front of him.
Invading enemy.
There are two heroic spirits. This one is a bit tricky, but if you deal with it seriously, plus the nearby formations and "those things", you shouldn't lose. The rest are all humans, even children, and except for the one wearing red
Except for the girl in the coat and black skirt, none of them seem to have magical powers, which means...
What do you mean? Is this configuration really meant for fighting?
After observing for a few seconds and coming to the conclusion that most of us are ordinary people, the man with the bamboo pole wanted to cry. Why is this Holy Grail War so strange? First, there are those inexplicable guys harassing him every day, and then he encounters
They encountered such a wave of strange enemies, and that little girl over there even took pictures everywhere with a digital camera! Is the organizer of this Holy Grail War just planting Sony advertisements?
Taking a deep breath, the tall and thin man forced himself to calm down and tried to ignore the clicking flash of a black-haired girl wearing a cherry blossom hair ornament in front of him. Well, calm down and regard it as an enemy because of his own strength.
The only thing we have to do is to use the tactics of suspicion, and then, the only ones who have to deal with it seriously are the two heroic spirits in front...
"Then, in order to complete my mission, I, Sasaki Kojiro, the heroic spirit of the assassin, can only block everyone from this gate."
He actually said his real name directly?
Tohsaka and the others were immediately taken aback, and then became even more cautious.
There is only one explanation for being able to face so many enemies in front of the mountain gate without fear, and even telling his true name without any fear. The heroic spirit in front of him is absolutely powerful, and he must have someone to rely on.
.
Saber took the initiative to take a few steps forward, held her hands in front of her in a fighting posture, and said seriously: "Since you can abide by the creed of announcing your name before the war in the Holy Grail War, you are a respectable opponent. This time,
It will be up to me to fight against it, my name is..."
"No need," the heroic spirit named Sasaki gently waved the extra-long katana in his hand, "it's just a swordsman's habit to tell names before battle, and knowing the enemy's name doesn't mean much to me."
