Chapter 81: Emiya Kiritsugu who blew up the building
The fire bell rang without warning, and Li Chenxing's thoughts, which were still fishing in the room, were suddenly interrupted. It seems that there was a fire downstairs, and Li Chenxing, who opened the door of the room, heard the announcement at the service desk, telling the residents to evacuate quickly.
"It seems to be just a small fire, but the fires are very scattered. It looks like it was arson."
Rider, who appeared behind Li Chenxing, said calmly.
"Arson? Did you win the lottery? ”
Through Rider's reminder, Li Chenxing suddenly remembered that there was a scene in the plot where a bomb maniac was about to blast a high-rise building, and he thought that with his big back personality and the money in his pocket, he would probably choose this hotel.
Although he knew that in the plot, the explosion did not cause other casualties, but the bomb was not long-sighted, if it was affected, it would be a big loss, Li Chenxing hurriedly packed up his things and went downstairs with the flow of people.
On the top floor, Kenneth snorted disdainfully and sat confidently on the couch.
"It's a way to drive away the crowd, and the opponent is a magician, so it doesn't seem like to be in a building with too many people."
"An attack, then?"
Although she has red hair like a burning fire, she feels like an unusually cold ice and snow beauty. She looks slightly younger than Kenais, and seems to be a delicate woman in her twenties. At first glance, you can feel that she is a sensual and noble daughter. And the majesty that emanated from her stern gaze made her look like a queen.
Sola. Nazelle. Sophia Li, Kenneth's mentor, the daughter of Sophia Li, the head of the séance. And it is the goddess of fate who completes Kenneth's glory, that is, she is Kenes's fiancée.
The wedding of the two famous families of the Achipolud family and the Sophia family, the combination of a peerless genius and the daughter of a school teacher, is a well-known story in the clock tower. Although Sophia's family heirloom magic mark was passed on to the eldest brother who inherited the family business, Sora did not have a high status as a magician, but she also had the blood of Sophiali's family passed down from generation to generation. Sora, who has a magic circuit that is very high above ordinary people, and Kenneth, who is known as a genius, are combined. I will definitely bring an even better next generation to the Aqipolud family.
At this time, Sora said with a nervous expression.
"I'm afraid yes, maybe the guy who hasn't had enough of Warehouse Street just now is here to find fault again, it's interesting. That's exactly what we do, isn't it? ”
"Yes, it does"
The spearman who appeared at some point stood behind Kenneth and said calmly.
"Since there is a magician who comes to find fault at this time, there will definitely be such a careful plan, and the enemy also has the existence of heroic spirits, so you can't be careless."
Although Sora does not have a magic mark, after all, as a member of the famous magic family Sophia Li, she has been influenced by magic since she was a child. For battles between magicians like the Holy Grail War, she knew no less than Kenneth as the Master. No. Or judging from her understanding of combat, she was very dissatisfied with Kenneth's careless approach as the Master.
Kenneth couldn't even say a word of rebuttal to Sora's aggressive attitude, although her fiancée had an unusually sharp analytical eye, but after all, Sora was neither his master nor his commander. Kenneth, as the Master, was determined from the beginning to use his own judgment in battle. Moreover, being accused of being a man as his fiancée is something that hurts his self-esteem even more.
However, as a child of a big family, Sora's emotional intelligence is not low, and she naturally knows the principle of beating a stick to give a date. Said to Kenneth.
"Kenneth, you know how you compare to the other masters. What are your strengths? That's who you are. If you can add your own design to the original contract system, you are indeed a genius, and you deserve to be called a genius. ”
Even Kenneth, tired of the words of praise, never tired of hearing them as they came out of Sora's mouth. In fact, Sora's evaluation of him is not pure flattery. The secret technique prepared by Kenneth for this Holy Grail War fundamentally subverted the rules of war set by the founding imperial family.
Originally, there was only one line of cause and effect between the servant and the master. The technique that separates the power of mana from the power of the spell and the power of the spell, which is mastered by the two summoners separately, is realized with Kenneth's genius ability. The magician with the spell is Kenneth, and the one who supplies the magic to the Servant is none other than Kenneth.
None other than Sora. They can be said to be the masters of a team of two.
"But Kenneth, though you're a magician, you're a second-rate warrior. It's hard to be completely prepared, but tactically you don't use it at all, do you? ”
"But. The war has only just begun, and it should be done with caution when acting......"
Because it wasn't the knight with the ability to charm that was summoned, the two people who appeared this time seemed to have a pretty good relationship, and there was no scene of infighting like in the original plot.
"Lancer, go down to the floor to meet them, but don't send them off easily."
"Understood. Just cut off the attacker's retreat and drive him here, right? ”
"Yes, since the guests are here, how can they not let the family have a good visit to my Kenneth, Elumeroy's magic workshop?"
The hotel, which served as Kenneth's base of activity, certainly needed a complete makeover. This transformation is not material, but refers to the intensification of magic. Of the thirty-two floors, there are twenty-four floors covered by Kenneth's barrier. It can even be called a magic fortress. There are also three Kenneth-specific magic furnaces and dozens of evil spirits and spirits summoned in place of hounds. Even the sewers were not missing, and Kenneth alienated the space beneath the corridor.
Instead of breaking into enemy formations, it is better to first perfect your position. For challengers who dare to step here, Kenneth will make him fully understand Rode. The true horror of Elumeroi.
"Now that the rest of the occupants have been evacuated, there's nothing to worry about. You all use all your powers to fight each other. ”
Uncontrollable laughter came out of Kenneth's throat. Yes, Kenneth now thirsts for blood. The black anger buried deep within him must be counteracted with someone's blood. Unfortunately, the enemy, who happened to be attacking now, was about to become the most suitable sacrifice.
However, the enemy did not act according to his idea at all......
In front of the hotel's door, the fear of fire, the interruption of sleep, and the unpleasantness of the cold of the night outside are mixed with the unsightly expression on the faces of the guests who have been awakened by a fire alarm in their sleep and evacuated to the outdoor parking lot. Among these people, the waiters of the hotel are busy in a panic.
"Mr. Aqipolud! Kenneth. Elumeroy. Mr. Aqipolud! Are you there? ”
The name on the guest list, only the last person left unconfirmed, and the front desk of the hotel called out in an anxious voice. For this wealthy guest who has chartered all the suites on the top floor of the hotel, every waiter attaches great importance to him. In a sense, this is the last person they want to be in danger.
Li Chenxing, who signed his name in the guest book, stood aside and watched, and took out his mobile phone to prepare to shoot this kind of big scene explosion that only comes back to special films.
"I'm here, please don't worry."
A loud voice came from behind the hotel front desk, but when the front desk turned around, it was confused. He was talking to a Japanese man in an old-fashioned coat. Li Chenxing, who was observing from the crowd, found that this person was the loyal and martyred Emiya Kiritsu.
"I'm Kenneth. Elumeroy. Aqipolud. My wife, Sora, was also with me. ”
Emiya Kiritsugu said in a loud voice. The front desk clerk was fascinated and accepted the statement without any suspicion.
"That's right. Ahhh That is true. ”
The front desk clerk drew a mark on the shelter in his hand, and after finally confirming that all the guests were safe, he let out a long breath.
After watching the hotel waiter continue to busily take care of the other tenants, Emiya Kiritsugu left the mixed crowd. The psychological hint just now, for ordinary people who don't have the ability to resist demons, will not be recognized in a short period of time.
"Boom ......"
The sound of bombs detonating in the air was heard, and then the terrifying sound of reinforced concrete beginning to fall apart and collapse resounded in the night sky.
