17. Flora (2)

"So fast!?" As soon as Webb packed up his mood and walked back to the villa, he received the shocking and somewhat relieved news that the Assassin had been killed by Archer while infiltrating Tosaka's house.

In addition to the shock, Weber was still a little lucky, so at least he would not be the first to be eliminated.

Putting the picture brought back by the demon monitor to the two of them, the Assassin's infiltration process was clear, and the defensive barrier of the Tosaka family was as if it were nothing in his eyes, and it was easy to make people feel creepy. This is Assassin! Webb didn't dare to think that if he had infiltrated where he was, he would have found out in the first place.

However, the Assassin was killed only in a moment, and the Noble Phantasms of various shapes shattered the Assassin's bony mask. Standing tall behind the heroic spirit was golden, and it was impossible to see its face against the light, although it was only for a moment, the arrogance in those crimson eyes had to be impressive—in his eyes, the Assassin was nothing more than an ant.

Powerful. Webb subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat, is Archer so powerful? It's outrageous! Were all the swords thrown at that moment his treasures? He must have too many treasures!

"Na! I said, Rider, Servant usually only has one Noble Phantasm, right? "But that glittering golden guy threw out at least a few treasures at that moment!

"That's true in principle, but it's pointless to measure Noble Phantasms by quantity." Iskandar was also a little surprised when he looked at the golden glitter, but he didn't care, and patiently gave the answer when he heard Weber's question, "You all know, the so-called treasure is the crystallization of extremely famous stories or legends that happened around the Heroic Spirit, and it may also be a special ability, or a means of attack. Although I have never seen Archer's attack methods, the true identity of the enemy will be known when we meet. ”

"Really, is that okay?" Webb felt very upset, he really wanted to go back to England!

"Of course, it's more exciting to see such a strong person!" But before he could finish stuffing his heart, Iskandar's slap came over, slapped him off the sofa, and put his arms around his neck, "Eat and women, sleep and fight, no matter what you do, you have to enjoy it to the fullest, this is the secret of life!" ”

"Ahem." Anne coughed twice and smiled.

Iskandar is okay, Webb looked at the smiling girl like a flower, and suddenly felt so terrible_(:зゝ∠)_Help! Annie, you're all having cannibal flowers behind you!!

"Well, Archer's true identity will be put aside for now, let's talk about the other protagonist first." Anne nodded the rabbit's head and motioned for it to turn off the image.

The little rabbit bounced away.

"But the Assassin isn't ......," Webber sat back on the couch, sitting upright, and Iskandar shook his head as he watched.

"Rider just said it, Servant's Noble Phantasm is the crystallization of extremely famous stories or legends that happened to the Heroic Spirit, and Assassin's Noble Phantasm is the materialization of multiple personalities." Anne didn't hide it, she said it directly, but distorted the facts: "Sixty years ago, in the Third Holy Grail War, the participants of the Milloni Carleone almost died at the hands of the Assassin, and although he did not return alive in the end, out of caution, he sent the information about the Assassin back to the family. ”

"Multiple Personality Materialization?!" Webb felt that his brain was a little insufficient, but he still clearly analyzed the key, "In other words, the Assassin who was killed just now is just one of many personalities?" ”

"That's right." Anne nodded, "It's useless to kill only one or two, to kill an Assassin, unless you can kill all the embodied personalities at once." ”

"Then the rest of ......," Webb stood up with an excited slap on the coffee table.

Anne shook her head, she could recognize it, but she didn't know how much personality the Assassin had, in her memory at that time, she only knew that the Heroic Spirit died at the hands of Pandora, "However, I have sent an envoy to follow Yan Feng Qili, he has already applied to the church for protection on the grounds of losing the servant, and the church has agreed." ”

"What follows is my personal guess, according to the information collected about Yan Feng Qili, Yan Feng Qili once worshiped under the Tosaka Shichen Sect to learn gem magic." Anne took all the information and put it in front of Webb.

"Isn't the Assassin attacking ......"

"If it's not against each other, it's the Tosaka family and the church alliance who acted in such a play. Placed Archer on the countertop, hiding the Assassin. "The more you hide in the shadows, the more powerful an assassin is.

"In that case, let's go and take a good look at this scene." Iskandar stood up, "Boy, get ready!" ”

"On the march?"

"We must be the only ones who received the news, so let's walk around here and find them out and kill them one by one! Hahahaha! ”

"How can it be so simple!" Webb was going crazy.

Anne looked at the two of them and laughed, "There's nothing bad, Webb should go with Iskandar too." ”

Handing over the demon to Webber and watching Iskandar summon the Thundering Chariot and take Webb away, Anne turned and returned to her room.

Iskandar drove the Thunder Chariot and Webb towards the place where the magic converged.

"Boy, since you're my master, I'll give you a piece of advice." Iskandar drove the chariot without squinting.

Advice? Webb was stunned, what did this mean.

"Stay away from that blonde woman, that woman is not simple."

"Annie?"

"Boy, you know, it's war." Iskadar stared straight ahead throughout, his burly body resolute in the night breeze.

Recently, the memory of that time has become clearer and clearer. Anne looked at herself reflected in the mirror, familiar and unfamiliar, and for a moment she seemed to see the girl in the mirror who was exactly like her, holding a blood-stained sword in her hand, raising it high, and falling coldly, [Blood Spring], boiling.

Pandora.

If that person were that, he wouldn't be as powerless as her. He always had a clear goal, unlike her. She just had to follow in his footsteps, as she had always done. Ever since she was a child, she has been watching him with thoughts and longings that she doesn't even know about.

In the mirror, the black-haired young man stands tall.

Never before had they been separated for so long, and Anne suddenly found that she missed him so much, all the time.

-Luo-

+-+-+-+-+-+-

"Are you leaving?" The gray-haired old man sitting behind the desk looked at the black-haired young man who took off his white coat and packed up his materials. It's really rare, usually when he leaves, this young man doesn't necessarily leave.

"There are important things today." Luo hung the white coat on the hanger, today is Anne's birthday, and he has to go back early, "So, I'll go first, Director Norman." ”

"Oh, young man. Go ahead. Norman keenly noticed that the black-haired young man's expression had softened a lot, and he knew a little clearly, and smiled, it must not be an important thing, but an important person.

The Institute does not restrict the movement of researchers, nor does it skimp on vacation. Once the progress of the month is completed, the rest of the time is completely free, and the Institute will fully provide all the materials and funding required for the research as soon as additional research activities are approved.

Brilanca, as one of the world's leading healthcare countries, has never lacked talent. Three years ago, in the researcher assessment, two geniuses that have been rare for decades appeared at once, no, it is probably more appropriate to say that they are ghosts. Nigel Nost of the Biological Research Department and Trafalgar Rowe of the Surgical Department under him.

Brilliant and stunningly talented, Norman's hands clasped at the table before his eyes, and he was unruly. This is not surprising, Norman thinks that these two young people are quite good regardless of temperament and temperament, and if they are cultivated with heart, their achievements will definitely not be small, but it is a pity......

Whether it's Trafalgar or Nigel, what Norman sees in them is not only super high medical talent, but also ...... Ambition! People with that kind of eyes, Flora's research institute can't keep them.

Brilanca is a spring island with a mild climate, and Flora, the royal capital of Brilanca, is full of flowers all year round, and even in summer, it is not too hot, making it a good place to live for a long time.

Suddenly woke up, through the leaves of the afternoon sun falling fragments, stinging people can't open their eyes. Anne tightened the swing frame with one hand and stroked her forehead with the other, and fell asleep in the park.

Occasionally, children chased and ran by, and the sound of frolicking could be heard far away.

"Sister Annie, you forgot to take something."

Anne looked in the direction of the little girl's finger holding the ball, and next to the small swing rack, there was also a delicate box.

"Ah...... Thank you, little Lena. Anne remembered that it was her birthday.

It was their third year in Flora, and today, her eighteenth birthday.

The blonde girl walked slowly back along the street, and the dream ...... No, that's not a dream. Anne looked into her palm. Although she can control her own consciousness, she can't control her waking and dreaming.

And...... Anne couldn't describe the feeling, the Holy Grail had a strange tug at her, it was calling her. It wanted to take her away......

"Annie?"

Gauze!

Hearing the voice from behind, Anne's body stiffened slightly, and the box in her hand fell to the ground.

"What's wrong with you?" Luo crossed Anne and bent down first to pick up the box that had fallen on the ground, "Why are you upset." ”

Anne didn't take the box, but looked at the young man in front of her, and was in a trance for a while. Faded from the youth of his youth, the man's silhouette became more and more handsome, tall, even if Anne has grown a lot taller over the years, she is still a head shorter than Luo.

This is the person she misses and is bound by.

"Well~nothing~ Maybe it's because I didn't have a good rest." Anne smiled and looked at Luo, "What about you, are you done with the affairs of the institute?" ”

Luo intuitively felt that the little girl was not as she said, just because she didn't rest well, but she couldn't find anything wrong for a while, she frowned slightly, and finally just reached out and landed on the little girl's head and patted it gently, "Go back." ”

Today is Anne's adult birthday. Luo looked at the slender little girl beside him, and the little girl in his memory had completely grown into an outstanding beauty.

"Bebo, they're going to have to wait."

"Hmm. Let's go back together. ”
