Chapter 190: The Holy Maiden Who Subdued the Evil Dragon
At the top of the main building of Liudong Temple, Lu Xiao used the eagle's pupil with a serious expression to look at the previous battlefield.
Yan Fengli and the Holy Maiden personally surveyed the scene and left one after another, and soon several strange people dressed as construction workers came to the scene and used spells to repair the damage caused by the battlefield of Yuanzang Mountain.
The Holy Grail War was fought in secret, and it was the responsibility of both the Templar Church and the Magic Society to cover up the damage caused to the local area by the battle under the table, so as not to arouse suspicion among the ordinary residents of Fuyuki City.
"Yan Fenglizheng, who is proficient in Bajiquan, let's not talk about it, that quite familiar fantasy species, and the holy girl holding a huge cross, is it ......?"
Lu Xiao only recalled the system's prompt at this time, he would be hindered in this Holy Grail War that did not appear in the original plot.
Preliminary speculation is that these obstacles should come from the two major inhibitory forces of the Moon World, Alaya and Gaia.
"I didn't expect Gaia and Alayah to send her."
Lu Xiao smiled bitterly and rubbed her eyebrows: "That's right, considering my dragonborn's inherent skills, it is only natural to arrange a saintess with the legend of subduing the evil dragon to target it." ”
Marda, one of the twelve holy women of Christianity, was active in the first century AD.
Legend has it that she had the ability to communicate directly with the Lord, and under the guidance of the Lord, she subdued the evil dragon Tarask.
It is said that the cross in Marda's hand is the staff held in front of the "Lord", which has powerful healing powers, and its symbolism is even more extraordinary, so it is no wonder that Yan Fengli is so respectful in front of Marda.
It was indeed a little surprising that Yan Fenglizheng, who was so old, could still have such a vigorous skill, but it didn't make him worry about it.
What really gave Lu Xiao a headache was the Holy Maiden Marda.
A little reflection will lead to the answer, Marda is likely to be the Holy Grail War Judge specially sent by the Suppression Force to expel him, an outsider, with the position of Ruler.
Although I don't know why Marda, who is in the position of Ruler, was able to bring Taraskque with me, I can guess on my elbow that Marda probably has specialized skills against enemies with dragon attributes.
Even without considering Marda's own combat power, the arrival of the Ruler will inevitably make a big difference to the Holy Grail that is about to open.
Lu Xiao can be sure that Marda, as the referee, will definitely blow the black whistle like one of her junior saintesses, and it is a black whistle specifically aimed at him.
"Troublesome ......"
Lu Xiao scratched his head irritably, there were huge variables in the Holy Grail War plan that had been formulated, and he couldn't see through the follow-up development, so he could only make more thorough preparations as much as possible, and see you when there was an emergency.
……
According to the follow-up response of the Tosaka family, the manager of Fuyuki, Lu Xiao speculated that Shichen had long known about Marda's existence.
The day after the house was burned down, the holy aura emanating from the church was finally explained, and Shi Chen should have witnessed the whole process of Marda's arrival with Yan Fenglizheng.
Shi Chen was already ready to fight with the Fuyuki Church, but now that the Templar Church suddenly lowered a judge saintess, Yan Fengli Zheng must no longer blatantly make small moves in favor of the Tosaka family, which is undoubtedly bad news for Shi Chen.
That night, Lu Xiao told Yanye and the Tosaka sisters what he had seen during the day.
Rin grew her mouth in surprise: "Marda, is it the Holy Lady Marda preached by Christianity?" ”
"It should be eight or nine and ten."
Puzzled, Rin curled the ends of his black hair with his fingers: "Why did the Holy Maiden Marda suddenly descend on Fuyuki?" Will she also participate in the Holy Grail War? ”
Lu Xiao didn't answer Rin's question for the time being, he was reinforcing the Rune Group in the workshop that was responsible for providing the secret effect.
Sakura nodded her chin thoughtfully, "Sister, have you ever had a record of the Holy Grail War of the Special Rank Descending before?" ”
Accidentally summoned her servants to participate in the Holy Grail War, although the strong Rin urged Lu Xiao to help Tosaka Tokitoshi, but in fact, she also had the idea of winning by herself and getting a strong praise from her father after the war.
Recently, Rin had purposefully flipped through a lot of information on the first three Holy Grail Wars, and Sakura's question made her face look abrupt.
"Indeed, during the Third Holy Grail War, the Einzberen family illegally summoned an additional job manager named Avenger."
"However, the Avenger summoned by Einzberen is very weak, and was killed by the twin sons Saber summoned by the Edfeldt family on the fourth day of the Holy Grail War."
"Edfeldt ......"
Sakura's face showed surprise: "Isn't that the family that grandma belongs to?" ”
Rin pretended to be knowledgeable and raised his finger to explain, "That's right~ The Edfeldt family and we are relatives, but because of the Third Holy Grail War, the relationship between the two sides is very delicate. ”
In the Third Holy Grail War, the Edfelt family fought against two sisters, one of whom lost to Rin and Sakura's grandfather.
Unexpectedly, the two sides actually sparked a spark of love in the battle, and in the end, Edfeldt's sister chose to stay in Fuyuki to marry Grandpa Tosaka.
After her sister's persuasion was fruitless, she returned to her hometown in Finland with hatred, and since then she has regarded the Tosaka family, who took away her sister, as a thorn in her side.
Her hostile attitude towards the Tosaka family has also been passed down from generation to generation to the descendants of the Edfeldt family, and the two sides are relatives but have a bad relationship.
It turned out that it was so connected, no wonder the relationship between Lady Crane and Rin would be so bad in the future. ’
Lu Xiao, who was listening, relieved some doubts in his heart because of the information he obtained by accident.
It's too early to think about what will happen more than ten years later, Lu Xiao just treats the exchange between the two sisters as an after-dinner chatter and play, and the first thing that needs to be paid attention to at present is the upcoming Fourth Holy Grail War.
As the official time for the start of the war approached, the masters who had obtained the spell in advance began to make final preparations.
The appearance of the Holy Maiden Marda caused different reactions from the various forces that learned the information, except for the Templar Church who hastily sent high-ranking officials to meet with the Holy Maiden, the other forces remained on the sidelines for the time being.
Revisiting the previous battle, Lu Xiao basically guessed the reason why Marda saw through his breath.
Because of the sublimation of the legend of the subduing dragon Tarask, it is likely that Marda has a special perception of people with dragon attributes, and this perception ability may have a direct effect regardless of the effect of breath blocking.
Lu Xiao, who was originally able to move at will, was suddenly put under a tight spell on his head, so he could only reduce unnecessary outings and leave part of the preparations in the secular world to Yanye and Alethea to deal with.
Fortunately, Marda had learned from the failed attack, and she did not let the Templar Church scare her until she was sure that she would leave Lu Xiao behind.
As the Holy Grail War officially began in its final month, the Lords, including Tosaka Tokitori, finally obtained the holy relics they needed.
Lu Xiao, who was meditating in the workshop at night, suddenly opened his eyes, left the room and climbed onto the roof, looking at the two directions that had sent huge magic fluctuations from a distance.
"Tosaka House and ...... Barren Hills near the Church, Shichen and Weber? ”
Lu Xiao wasn't sure if Einzberen and Monarch Ermeiro, who were far away in Germany and England, were also summoning servants at the same time, but the successive appearance of servants undoubtedly aggravated the smell of gunpowder in Fuyuki City.
"Archer and Rider have been summoned one after another, and if you count Saber in Einzbelen and Lancer in Ermello, the only thing left is Caster, right?"
Aside from Webber, who stole Kenneth's relics, the only outsiders in this Holy Grail War were the Caster group.
Since Caster class servants are magicians themselves, this class usually has the least need for the Master's magic power, regardless of special circumstances.
Lu Xiao thought about letting Sakura or Yanya, whose bodies gradually stabilized, serve as the master to summon Caster in advance, but these two were not selected by the Holy Grail to give the spell from beginning to end.
"So, Cater's master is likely to be the disgusting murderer, Ryunosuke Yusui?"
Lu Xiao looked thoughtfully in the direction of Xindu, due to Marda's deterrence, Lu Xiao did not go to Xindu near the Dongmu Church recently, but he did see the news of victims in Xindu one after another from TV.
Although Lu Xiao is not a bad person, he is not a special race that relies on the pain of others to feel pleasure, and it is best to rule out a perverted murderer like Ryunosuke Yusheng in advance.
Of course, the spell he held in his hand was Lu Xiao's main target.
"Take a risk and run to the new capital, if you're unlucky enough to meet Marda......"
A cold light flashed in Lu Xiao's eyes: "You can consider exposing a hole card and sending this referee who blew the black whistle out in advance." ”
