In the workshop, Leonardo da Vinci rested his chin on his hand and frowned, confirming: "In other words, that guardian has an extremely long range and can even accurately hit the workshop in Miyama Town from the distance bridge?"
Lu Xiao, who was standing opposite Da Vinci, had a helpless expression. Lin was still clinging to his body, two rows of white teeth biting his shoulders, determined not to let go.
"The conclusion of the test is roughly this. Although it is not sure whether his long-distance accuracy relies on the Noble Phantasm with tracking ability, Red A does have a super long sniper range."
Lu Xiao was not idle in flirting with Red A and Kiritsugu. He mainly wanted to confirm the range and accuracy of the enemy snipers, and testing new weapons was only a secondary purpose.
With the location of the workshop exposed, it will become a luxury for Leonardo da Vinci to hide in the workshop and engage in "big construction".
Even if other Masters are temporarily unsure of the relationship between Caster and Assassin, Caster, as one of the participants in the Holy Grail War, will need to resolve it sooner or later.
Although the caster profession has the strongest spell ability among the seven professions, their protective ability is the weakest. It is usually necessary to build a magic workshop to make up for this shortcoming.
No matter how strong the defense is, it will be broken one day. Lu Xiao will not naively think that relying on this reinforced workshop can survive until the end of the Holy Grail War.
According to Lu Xiao's plan in advance, the workshop in Miyama Town was mainly used to deal with the early stages of the Holy Grail War, when the situation was relatively calm.
Now that the location of the workshop has been exposed, other Masters and Servants are likely to concentrate their firepower on removing this unsightly nail.
Once he moves out of the workshop, Da Vinci may be exposed to other Masters and Heroic Spirits. Heroic Spirits like Red A, who have ultra-long-range and precise sniping capabilities, happen to be the most difficult for her to deal with.
Tonight is already the fourth night of the Holy Grail War. The initial testing is basically over. Next, the heroic spirits in each group will gradually reveal their trump cards and sweep away other competitors.
"Although it is one day earlier than expected, we can only be prepared to move positions at any time."
Lu Xiao thought for a while and then came to the conclusion: "Tonight I will join forces with the Saber team to attack the new stronghold prepared by Emiya Kiritsugu. Caster, you are in the workshop and be prepared to evacuate at any time."
"If someone attacks the workshop, according to the plan, Kariya will take Rin and Sakura to evacuate first, and you will guard Irisviel."
Da Vinci sighed softly: "What a pity. I quite like this workshop, but under the current situation, I really can't care so much."
Farewell to Leonardo Da Vinci who started to clean up the workshop, Lu Xiao looked at the humanoid koala on his shoulder who was still making a "woohoo" sound without saying anything.
"...Rin, when are you going to bite?"
"You pay for my barbecue!"
"Yeah~ There's still a little time before nightfall, so I'll grill some kebabs to compensate you."
…
Fuyuki Church, Kotomine Kirei, with luggage in hand, officially moved into the church and sought shelter from the Holy Church Church.
According to the rules of the Holy Grail War, magicians participating in the Holy Grail War cannot attack the former Master who seeks refuge in the church.
After the master loses the heroic spirit, he does not completely lose hope. If he can re-sign a contract with the lonely heroic spirit who has also lost his master, the Holy Grail will give him the Command Seal again.
In order to avoid this situation, magicians participating in the Holy Grail War usually order their servants to kill the enemy's Master as well.
As Tosaka Tokiomi's disciple and ally, Kotomine Kirei had been hiding in the Tosaka family's strong magic workshop, so it was difficult to get past Berserker and attack him directly.
Kotomine Kirei, who was impeccable in his work, did not give other masters and heroic spirits a chance. The day after losing his followers, he went to the church to seek refuge from his father, very lonely.
From the outside, it seemed that Kotomine Kirei was not at all unwilling to lose the qualification to continue fighting.
He had a calm conversation with Kotomine Rimasa, and maintained his normal pace as he entered the church room his father had prepared for him.
Just as he put down his luggage, Kirei's hand suddenly paused.
"King of Heroes, I don't remember inviting you to see me off."
"Ha~"
Gilgamesh, who deliberately exposed his breath, emerged from his spiritual body and appeared on the sofa in the room with his legs crossed.
"Kirei, are you just giving up?"
"What if?"
Kotomine Kirei asked expressionlessly: "I never had a strong desire to participate in the Holy Grail War. After losing Lancelot, I have no use value."
"That's not what I want to ask." Gilgamesh asked meaningfully: "Have you found your own way of pleasure in this Holy Grail War?"
"Pleasure..."
Kotomine Kirei was silent for a moment: "I just further confirmed my sin. Can this way of pursuing pleasure be allowed by the Lord?"
"ha!"
Gilgamesh sneered disdainfully: "Jehovah? You don't really think that he is as omnipotent as what is sung in the Bible, do you?"
"Gilgamesh, please don't insult my faith."
Gilgamesh was not angry because of Kotomine Kirei's warning. He smiled and waved his hand: "Forget it, let's not discuss this topic for now."
"People are different. Some people can gain satisfaction from helping others through good deeds, while some people can only gain joy from witnessing the pain of others."
"Kirei, you should have noticed what happened by now, right?"
Gilgamesh pierced the last layer of window paper with a half-smile: "You, Kotomine Kirei, are a special person who derives pleasure from absorbing the pain and sorrow of others."
Kotomine Kirei's usually calm eyes suddenly flickered: "King of Heroes, what exactly do you want to say? What's the purpose of tempting me to fall?"
"I told you that from the beginning, right?"
Gilgamesh picked up the chess piece belonging to Archer from the seven-level chessboard on the table, and flicked the Master chess piece behind Archer away.
"Tosaka Tokiomi is a rigid and boring person. Depending on the situation, I will have irreconcilable conflicts with him sooner or later."
Kotomine Kirei immediately understood what the other party meant, and a stiff sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "I see, am I the backup magic power source you chose?"
…
Gilgamesh has always come and gone freely, and Tokiomi Tohsaka cannot restrict his free movement.
At this time, Tokiomi Tosaka was still hiding in Tosaka's house repairing the defense of the workshop, and had no idea of Gilgamesh's whereabouts or what he was thinking behind his back.
"Aoi, don't worry."
After contacting his wife who was far away in Zencheng via a landline phone, Tokiomi Tosaka comforted him in a soft tone: "The Holy Grail War will end in three days, and the final victory will definitely belong to me."
"But, um... please help me inform Rin that I will go to Chancheng's house tomorrow afternoon. There are some things I need to explain to her. You can help Rin ask for leave from school in advance."
"this……"
Tohsaka Aoi hesitated for a moment, and in order not to distract Tokiomi, she decided to keep the matter of Rin's suspension from school temporarily secret and wait until the Holy Grail War was over before telling Tokiomi.
"I know, Rin will be very happy to see you again."
After hanging up the phone, Tokiomi Tosaka sat silently at the desk, reached out and touched the wax-sealed envelope on the table, with a somewhat complicated expression on his face.
"I will not lose, and I cannot lose! The Tosaka family's tragic wish will be fulfilled in my hands!"
