Chapter 16: Speculation on the Demon God Saber

"If I'm not wrong......"

With this sentence, Abner opened up a new topic.

That is, a little speculation about Surut.

Last night, Sulut's sudden attack can be said to have almost caught the three heroic spirits of the death match under the moon by surprise. That almost absolute level of combat power, just looking at it from a distance, will make people feel terrified.

But...... There are a couple of issues involved......

First of all, why did Surut come over?

It's understandable, isn't it? If Surut had suddenly materialized near the ice city of Ebner at that time, I'm afraid that none of the people present would have been able to escape.

The reason why Luo Xiya and Lu Bu were able to escape was because Surut was slowly walking towards the castle from a distance step by step.

Taking a step back, even if it's to avoid startling the snake, after all, some magic detectives can still feel the existence of spirits, even if it is not near the ice city, there is no need to summon it from such a distance, right?

Since the enemy used that kind of attack strategy, he must have killed more Heroic Spirits, and the effect was agreed, right?

It doesn't make sense, he would deliberately compress his results......

"Definitely. ”

Saber nodded, empathizing, if he had such a powerful power, I am afraid that he would also choose to materialize nearby, and then break through everyone in one breath and kill them. Electrifying and ignorant of fire, leaving no time for them to react.

If it is said that the Heroic Spirit and the Imperial Master want to hide safely, then it is even simpler, the Imperial Master does not come out, and let the Heroic Spirit materialize nearby? Anyway, the Heroic Spirit and the Imperial Master can be connected through strong thoughts, this kind of thing is still no problem.

"Therefore, I boldly speculate that the materialization of the enemy may be limited to a certain extent. ”

Saber nodded, she could understand the feeling. After all, when she became a Heroic Spirit, she also had this kind of restriction. She is the one who made a contract with the world during her lifetime and agreed to deliver her after death, so when she appeared in the Holy Grail War before, she could not be spiritualized, and she had to remain physical throughout.

Therefore, she is very aware that servants often receive multiple restrictions, if this fire demon god saber can only appear in a specific place because of some special conditions...... As long as you can figure out this pattern, you can find out the pattern of the enemy's appearance, and then find a strategy.

"Moreover, it is also strange that Shirou's seniors have only one spell in their hands......"

Ebner continued, his blue eyes revealing a melancholy and deep temperament.

As mentioned earlier, there should be 3 spells that the Holy Grail bestows on the Master. If the Holy Grail does not recognize Shirou's abilities, then it should be Abner who continues to serve as Saber's master, and Shirou does not have a single spell. And now, the situation is strange, Shirou has a spell that shows that the Holy Grail admits that he is a participant in the Holy Grail War.

However, there is only one painting...... It's a bit of a scratch to the head.

The Master's Spell can be used to make contracts with other Heroes after losing them. However, Abner's three spells have been used up, and the spell on the back of Shirou's hand should have nothing to do with him, and it is not that Abner's remaining spells have been transferred to him......

Ebner speculated: Either way, this is the Compensation Spell that the Holy Grail gave to Shirou. So there's only one.

Or......

"Perhaps, it's because, when summoning, the other party Saber happened to consume a spell. Because one of the two had a spell but did not summon a servant, and the other had a servant but did not have a spell, the Holy Grail gave the original holder, the vacant spell, to Shirou's senior, and finally let the two of them add up to maintain a total of 3. What about this possibility?"

"Is this possible? If the spell given by the Holy Grail is used, the mana is indeed consumed, why is there such a strange replenishment policy?"

Saber Artoria immediately came up with a counter-argument. Albernar nodded and said, "The ordinary Holy Grail really can't do it, because it only has accumulated 60 years of magic power, and it is not at all comparable to the dragon vein that has accumulated thousands of years of magic power. So, with that in mind, I think it's still possible. ”

Abner quickly retorted, Saber nodded, this kind of analysis is not her specialty, magic matters, it is better to leave it to the magician.

“…… Wait a minute, Master, there seems to be a reaction from other Heroic Spirits at the door. ”

Is it really Saber?, Artoria sensed the strangeness of the doorway. This is the result of the operation of Abner's workshop, which isolates the inner and outer magic.

The three of them felt ready for battle, Shirou picked up the black and white double sword with both hands, Abner silently activated the defense technique of the workshop, and Saber carried the invisible sword and rushed to the door.

"Wait! Don't rush to do it, wow!

When the visitor saw Saber's menacing appearance, he quickly raised his hands high and made a non-hostile gesture.

"Your own people?"

Saber looked at him strangely, then at Shirou beside him, and then fixed his gaze on him.

The man in gorgeous golden armor and a crimson cloak exudes a sense of majesty from his eyes to his posture.

"I'm a rider, Mina Tosaka's servant, Shirou Tosaka, Old Man Tosaka is here, right?!

"What?!"

As soon as he heard Mina's words, Shirou's eyes widened, and he quickly bypassed Saber in two steps and ran in front of him.

"You, did you really find out?!"

"Of course! I'm her servant! It turns out that she fled to the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city! Now she is resting in the forester's tent!

Lu Bu said urgently, and was about to grab Shiro's hand, but somehow, Saber felt uncomfortable in his heart, took a step forward, and reached out to stop Shiro's body, preventing Lu Bu from having a chance to touch him.

"I'm sorry, I'm suspicious. ”

Saber used such a cold sentence to reject Lu Bu's proposal without embarrassing Shirou.

"Oh, then there's no way, so let's do it, I'll lead the way in front, and you follow. ”

Lu Bu said and ran away in great strides.

He...... Was he originally such a hot person?

Abner and Shirou glanced at each other, BER was the most normal, after all, it was the first time she and Rider Lu Bu had met, but if they met, she didn't even know what position this person was. Not to mention feeling confused.

But......

If it's true, there's no reason why the two wouldn't go.

If it is a trap, the two of them will go, and they can also determine Lu Bu's backwater......

If there were only two masters, perhaps, they would have thought about it, but ......

Shirou's trusting gaze fell on Saber, a petite and determined figure that was the trump card that led him to victory again and again. Her words, even if it is Lu Fengxian, even if it is the unparalleled heroic spirit in the world, she can be on par, right?

When the time comes, plus Shirou will assist by the side......

It has to be said that Sir Kenneth chose the perfect strategy in the Fourth Holy Grail War. Leave all the mana supply problems to one person, and the master will be able to take charge of the attack.

There are two reasons why Kenneth's camp lost, the first is that he was too attached to the dignity of magic, and as a result, he was destroyed by Emiya Kiritsugu. Second, there is internal disharmony, and the relationship between Solaou, Kenneth, and Lumudo is very complicated, which directly leads to the defeat of the camp.

And these two biggest problems have also been solved......

Kenneth's disciple Weber Velvet inherited the name of Ermelo II, and his unique vision quickly became a celebrity of the clock tower, and at the same time he was called the lord, and officially began to teach the [modern magic discipline] of the clock tower. When the family was revived, Weber's own personality also subtly influenced his students.

Albert is one of them.

Deeply influenced by his teacher, he is no longer a pure magician, and with both modern science and demonic orthodoxy, he will not easily make the kind of mistakes that only magicians make.

On the other hand, Abner's personality is also gentle as water, not intense, not ostentatious, Shirou is also an easy-going character, Saber believes in Shirou, Shirou is also considerate of Saber, Abner will not be jealous of the two, let alone deliberately pull back his legs. This team can be said to be a strengthened version of Kenneth's lineup.

What's more, it's a perfect replacement for the upper ranks, and Saber has a better Thanh Treasure compared to Lumudo. In terms of demonic power, Solau, who did not inherit the family mark, could not fight with Abner, who had the mark, presumably, in terms of combat skills, Shirou had the strength to kill the heroic spirit when he was young.

With such a team, no matter what kind of enemy it encounters, it will be able to deal with it easily.

Even if you know it's a trap, it doesn't matter if you have a strong lineup that you can face any trap.
