Chapter 61: Misleading
Will it be?
The answer is clearly no.
Country-to-country, power and power, once it rises to the diplomatic level, it is impossible to act hastily. Because the people who are sent out are on behalf of the country. If you don't have enough strength, you won't be able to control the field, and you will lose not only your own face, but also the face of the country.
It is precisely for this reason that the United States does not dare to arbitrarily appoint anyone to serve as ambassadors to foreign countries in exchange for Russian or Chinese ambassadors, and most of the ambassadors to foreign countries that the United States can crush with one finger, or "little brother countries" and "son countries" that cannot cause problems.
The same rule applies to the Magic Society and the Templar Church. In London, for example, the Templar Church has a semi-public presence in London, and its head is not to be underestimated even by the Twelve Lords.
"Fame and strength are not necessarily proportional, and every big force has all kinds of shadows and hole cards. These people may not be famous, but they must be difficult to deal with. ”
That's what Shinji is trying to say. Amakusa Shiro also fully meets this evaluation, he is indeed not famous, because he has almost no communication with other colleagues, and his sense of presence is very low, but his evaluation and achievements within the "Eighth Secret Society" are definitely the best ones.
He has overseen many subspecies of Holy Grail wars and has extensive experience. For nearly 20 years, he lurked in the multi-sectarian Middle East, known as a land of strife. If it weren't for his unintentional power, there would have been more than one priest. By the way, Shiro Amakusa's brown skin is not his original skin color, but has been deliberately changed in order to lurk in the Middle East.
"The Templar Church is on par with the Magic Society, so it's strange that they can't have a catalyst to summon powerful servants. In this way, we are likely to face four top servants. ”
Shinji's analysis finally made Danick's face change.
"It's-"
This pair of master and slave may not be on the same side as the others. Vlad III took Darnick's words, "The enemy of our enemies is our friends, and helping us split the Magic Society is also an option." ”
Shinji nodded: "The Grand Duke's statement is also a possibility. However, judging by Patriarch Danic's expression, the people of the Templar Church should not have been in contact with us yet. Whether he decides to stand on the same side as the Magic Association, or is secretly assessing our strength, we should treat him as an enemy at this stage, and the four-on-three situation has not changed - I ask again, is there still an eighty percent chance of our side winning?"
Gold was not convinced: "Hmph, you're just speculating. ”
"Strategically despising the enemy and tactically valuing the enemy, we cannot pin our hopes on uncertain factors. ”
"Even if it's really like you said, and the magic diversion system I developed, the treasure is fired continuously, what about the top servant?"
"Magic and Noble Phantasms are just one of the factors that determine victory or defeat, and you can see that. My Phantasm was fired in bursts, and it didn't pose much of a threat to Karna. Phineas and Karna fought in the middle of the night, not because they didn't want to liberate the treasure, but because they didn't have a chance at all. ”
"You mean there's no value in the magic diversion system I've developed?" Gold stared at Shinji with an unkind look, this was one of his greatest achievements, and whoever belittled him was in a hurry.
"Of course not. Shinji shook his head, "Although I don't like your character, but this system you developed, I have to say the word 'service'." It is precisely because of this system that a servant like me, who relies on Noble Phantasms, can exert his maximum combat effectiveness, and I must say 'thank you' for this. ”
Complimented by his rival, who had been sarcastic, Gold's expression immediately softened, and his head was raised high, looking very proud—though he himself thought it was disdainful.
That's right, he's a tsundere. It's just that the Lori girl is cute when she plays tsundere, and the middle-aged fat man is a little disgusting when she plays tsundere.
"But, fatty, I'll warn you, for most servants. Treasure is the trump card, and when you use it to decide the winner or loser, when you decide life and death, there are not many opportunities for Treasure to be issued in a row. After all, no matter how powerful the Noble Phantasm is, there is no point in not hitting it. If you fire a burst for the sake of a burst of Treasure, it will only leave a gap for the enemy. ”
"I know, I don't need to be reminded. Gold held his head high and carried the tsundere to the end.
Taking advantage of the time for Shinji and Gold to talk, Darnick also cleared his thoughts, and he said in a calm tone as always, "Assassin, I understand what you mean. I will not be blindly confident, I will do what you say, despise the enemy strategically and value the enemy tactically. ”
"Then I'm relieved. Shinji bowed slightly, "There is one more thing, I'm a little worried." ”
"You say. ”
"The Red side sent the Lancer to attack the Ruler. On the way back, I kept thinking that attacking the ruler was harmful. Normally, no one would do that. Unless—Red wants to break the rules!"
Darnick himself is a master of intrigue and politics, and the rank of the "crown" is also politically manipulated, and there are countless magicians and magicians who have been killed by him. As soon as Shinji mentioned it, he immediately understood what Shinji was worried about.
Politics is a game built within a certain framework, and it is easy not to break the rules, and once it is broken, there must be enough gains. The red side does not hesitate to attack the ruler, and the plan must not be simple.
"Assassin, did you find anything?"
"Not yet. ”
How could it be? Amakusa Shiro sent Karna to kill Joan of Arc because he was afraid that Joan of Arc would know that he was also from a ruler background, and it would have been a violation to participate in the Holy Grail War. Saying this just hopes that you will be careful and careful, don't be overshadowed by Amakusa, the mastermind behind the scenes, by the way-
"However, the patriarch just said that the subspecies Holy Grail War? Is that also the Holy Grail War? Can you summon servants?"
Shinji's seemingly unintentional question caused Danic's pupils to shrink suddenly: "Servant, yes, extra Servant!"
The Subspecies Holy Grail War is also a Holy Grail War, and although it lacks the most critical elements, the basic ability to summon servants is still there. You don't need more, just a few, you don't need the most powerful Heroic Spirit, you only need to summon Servants with home bonuses in the host country, such as summoning Greek heroes in Greece and Roman heroes in Rome, then the Thousand Worlds Tree will be in big trouble.
Thinking of this, Darnik hurriedly ordered: "Gold, you go and inform our compatriots immediately, if there are really additional servants, there is no relaxation over there, and then we will use her strength." ”
"I'll go right away. Yes, about ruler—"
The situation was urgent, and Gold did not put up any more arrogance, and was about to leave with Siegfried. Before leaving, he suddenly remembered something and turned around and said.
"Assassin and ruler seem to get along well, and when they separated, it seems that they left their homework for ruler. ”
"Homework, what's going on?" Vlad III and Danick looked at Shinji at the same time.
Shinji touched his nose with a strange expression: "That, you may not believe it." Joan of Arc was interested in mathematics, but she didn't go to school and couldn't read textbooks, so I taught her a little addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in my spare time, and left her a lot of exercises. ”
And so—
The wise god Vlad, the city is deep and deep;
Silent Ziegfried, domineering Gold.
All stupid, they neatly opened their mouths and exhaled.
"Clam ???"
PS: The clock tower didn't really move at all this time. Otherwise, even if there are seven servants, it will still be easy to destroy the Thousand Worlds Tree. The subspecies Holy Grail War is naturally the first choice, summoning dozens of servants to be thrown into Tullyfas, this picture, tsk. Secondly, there are many families in the Magic Association who have inherited the ancient mystery, that is, the authenticity of the treasure, Xiao Gray and Bazet, who can be single-handedly servant, send such a person over, how to play the Thousand Worlds Tree?
PS2: You may not believe it, but Joan of Arc is illiterate.
