The last place where the Magic Tracking Mark disappeared was the Civic Hall located in the heart of the city.

The reason why it is a civic hall is that we have to mention the four spiritual veins of Fuyuki City. The largest of these is Enzang Mountain, which has a huge cavity underneath it. On the four walls of that hollow wall is a huge and complex magic array, which is the real core of the Holy Grail War, the Great Holy Grail, also known as the "Heavenly Cup". The "Winter Saintess" of the Einzberen family sits in the center of the magic array, maintaining the operation of the magic array, and even after more than two hundred years, her remnant soul is still stranded in the magic array.

It's just that at the end of the last Holy Grail War, Zhou Xiaoning summoned the Holy Grail, causing the "evil of this world" to leak, although Zhou Xiaoning promptly let Xiao Mo and the [Book of Evil] devour the "evil of this world", but it also caused irreparable pollution to Yuanzang Mountain. Until now, Yuanzang Mountain is still a barren mountain with no grass, and except for the magic array in the void that is quite stable, the aura in other places is extremely violent, not to mention casting spells, how to ensure that your magic power does not riot is already thankful.

Therefore, although Dongmu City still has four spiritual veins in name, there are only three that can be effectively used. And two of them are in the hands of the Tosaka family and the Maki family, that is, the location where the Tosaka house and the Maki house are located. In this way, there is only one spiritual vein that can really be used by outsiders.

In the past two hundred years, the Tosaka family and the Maki family have also been playing the idea of that spiritual vein, but the two families have restrained each other, and no one can succeed. In the end, due to the needs of urban development, the state took over the "wasteland" and built a civic hall on it, so that neither of the two families took advantage.

However, this is not a way to deal with it, after all, if you continue to fight, the two families will have to fight, and no matter who loses or wins, it will be greatly damaged, and the losses caused at that time will not be a spiritual vein that can make up for it.

But it is precisely because of the attitude of the Tosaka family and the Makiri family that they give people with intentions an opportunity. No, Rin Tosaka tasted the bitter fruit buried by his ancestors.

"Damn, these dragon tooth soldiers are really endless!"

Rin Tosaka's tone revealed a sense of irritability, in fact, since the mirror enchantment of zero o'clock was unfolded, she and Red A had been fighting continuously for almost half an hour, and they could just stay in the square in front of the Civic Hall, unable to advance or retreat.

In the beginning, there were only a dozen dragon tooth soldiers blocking in front of them, but once these dragon tooth soldiers were scattered, they would be divided, one into two, and two into four...... The more they fought, the more they fought, and now there were no less than three hundred dragon tooth soldiers in the square.

The dragon tooth soldier is just a low-level summoned monster, and its strength is stronger than that of special forces who don't use hot weapons, but that kind of infinite differentiation ability is too disgusting, so the more attacks there are, if there is no clearing-type attack ability, sooner or later they will be dragged to death.

Usually, to crack this spell, you either kill the caster, or cut off or deplete the opponent's mana source. It's just that these dragon tooth soldiers are obviously summoned based on the spiritual veins under the Civic Hall, so it is basically impossible to exhaust the source of magic power, so they can only start from the caster.

"The Dragon's Tooth Soldier can only be summoned by the lost magic of the gods, and it can turn the entire guild hall into a workshop...... No, it should be a higher level of the temple, this kind of demonic attainment, it must be Caster! ”

Rin Tosaka has actually had such a guess all along, but now it's confirmed.

"Archer, can't you just kill that Caster, who is the weakest of all the staff."

"If she showed up, I could have shot her, but now that she has been hiding in the 'temple' she built, there is nothing I can do. In my opinion, let's retreat for the time being, call two allies, and settle accounts with Caster. ”

Red A held a pair of black and white short knives, and lightly cut a dragon tooth soldier into two, although his basic attribute was the lowest level among the Heroic Spirits, but it was still very easy to clean up this group of dragon tooth soldiers who had just entered the third-order level at best.

"No, absolutely not!"

Miss Tosaka's self-esteem was stimulated, and she shook her head again and again without thinking about it: "I can solve this matter alone, you are not allowed to give me an opinion, did you hear!" ”

"Okay, okay, just listen to you. Just what are you going to do? ”

With a helpless look on Hong A's face, he wondered why as soon as Rin Tosaka mentioned things related to Zhou Xiaoning, she couldn't keep calm and completely left behind the family motto that the Tosaka family should maintain perfection at all times.

"This ...... All you have to do is protect me while I'm casting! ”

Rin Tosaka took out a brilliant ruby in distress, that was when she successfully released the first magic trick, her father Tosaka Toshichen rewarded her, it was a pretty superb gem, she has been instilling magic into it every day for more than ten years, and now she has stored quite a lot of magic power, if it is used as a casting medium, it is enough to send out a magic spell that is comparable to the liberation of B-grade treasures.

Even if she is the eldest lady of the Tosaka family, she only has such a gem in her hand, and she is really a little distressed when she takes it out like this.

"Since you can't bear it, don't take it out casually and use it, I'll take care of these dragon tooth soldiers."

"What!"

Rin Tosaka was startled by the sudden appearance of the voice, this voice was very familiar to her, who else could there be if it wasn't Zhou Xiaoning's nasty ghost.

Looking in the direction from which the voice came, she saw that Zhou Xiaoning and Artoria were not far behind her, and there were nine strange lines of words suspended in front of Zhou Xiaoning, which seemed to be some kind of spell.

"Lightning Dragon!"

The ninth-order thunder system secret technique was casually cast by Zhou Xiaoning, and because of the use of a trace of the mystery of the lightning system law in the process of casting, the power of this dark spell was greatly increased. After a while, a thunderbolt dragon descended from the sky and circled around the square, and all the dragon tooth soldiers it came into contact with were vaporized, not even a single bone residue was left, and without a medium, the differentiation could not be completed.

After destroying all the dragon tooth soldiers, the Thunderbolt Divine Dragon continued to gain momentum and crashed straight into the gate of the Civic Hall.

However, the expected scene of the Civic Hall being razed to the ground did not appear, and a purple defensive magic array blocked in front of the Thunder and Lightning Divine Dragon, and finally canceled out in pairs and disappeared.

"Bang bang."

"It's really worthy of being the witch Medea who studied under the goddess of magic Hecate, although the ninth-order dark art can't be my full strength, but you can block it, it is enough to show that your spell-casting ability has far surpassed that of ordinary magicians."

Zhou Xiaoning's face was appreciative, in terms of spell-casting ability alone, Medea was definitely the most superb of all the female spellcasters he had encountered.

"What, she's the betrayal witch!"

Rin Tosaka looked at the woman who appeared at the gate in surprise and blocked the thunderbolt dragon, wearing a black magic robe, this is a rather dangerous character, which bastard summoned her!

Words like "betrayal" and "witch" are forbidden here in Medea, but Rin Tosaka is good, and they are all mentioned at once.

Medea's expression suddenly changed and became hideous, but because the brim of the mage's robe covered most of her face, only a mouth leaked, so outsiders could not see the change in her expression. However, it can also be seen from the sudden surge of violent magic on her body that she is not in a very good mood at this time.

"Rin, that's your fault, in fact, Medea is also a poor woman."

Zhou Xiaoning couldn't help sighing, looking at Medea's life, you will find that she is actually one of the many chess pieces played by the Greek gods.

In Greek mythology, there was a hero named Iason, who was originally a prince of a country, but his country was taken away by King Polyas. In order to regain his country, Iason negotiated with King Polias, and it was agreed that if Iason could rush to Colcas, the country in the far east, and bring back the Golden Fleece, King Polias would return the country.

At that time, the Golden Fleece was in the hands of Medea, who was still the daughter of Aethes, the king of Corcas, who was good at magic and the princess of Corcas. Although she studied magic, her personality is far from being called a witch.

Originally, she could have had a different life, but the appearance of Yi Asong disrupted all this.

At that time, Iason was supported by the goddess Aphrodite, and seeing that King Corcastas was difficult to convince, she took control of Medea's heart and turned her into a girl who was desperate for Iason. made Medea betray her country and relatives for the sake of this man she had never met at all.

Even, in order to help the so-called "lover" Iason, escape, Medea did not hesitate to divide the body of her younger brother Abysitus in front of her father.

After that, Medea even helped Iasong regain the kingdom, and it can be said that Medea gave her all for this man named Iason. However, all this did not lead to a happy ending.

Because of their previous actions, Iason and Medea were expelled from the kingdom, and they lived in exile for a while until they reached Corinth, where they were accepted by King Collins.

King Collins admired Iason, and decided to marry his daughter to him. And the scumbag of Iasong unsurprisingly abandoned Medea who accompanied him all the way and chose a younger and more beautiful princess.

After all this, Medea turned black as a matter of course, and she appeared at the wedding of Iason and the princess, killing everyone except Iason, by magic. It's not that she doesn't want to kill Iason, it's that the goddess Aphrodite's divine power is still in effect, so she can't attack Iason.

Counting these causes and consequences, it is really difficult to attribute all the faults to Medea alone, but the gods are perfect, there will be no stain and cannot be, and the hero is destined to only have a bright side, so all the black cauldrons can only be carried by Medea, and the title of "betrayal witch" can be said to be imposed on her by the world, in the end, she is just a poor woman who can't control her own fate.

Zhou Xiaoning's words made Medea, who was originally going to kill Sakura Tosaka, for a moment, she has endured too much responsibility and abuse from others, or it is endless indifference, as if if you will be polluted by her if you have more contact with her, this is the first time to help her speak.

"Huh? You even say that Medea is a poor woman? ”

Rin Tosaka looked at Zhou Xiaoning in disbelief, this was simply the funniest joke she had heard this year!

"Isn't it?"

Zhou Xiaoning shrugged his shoulders, looked back at Rin Tosaka without showing weakness and said: "If you fall in love with a man and do everything you have, even if it is to break with the Tosaka family and help him achieve a career, but as a result, he likes other women and wants to dump you, what will you do?" ”

"Hmph, my vision is not that bad!"

"I mean what if."

"Well, if that happens, I'll cut off the extra thing between that man's legs!"

Rin Tosaka glanced viciously at Zhou Xiaoning's waist down, which suddenly made Zhou Xiaoning feel cold in the lower half of his body.

"Ahem, look, you can't accept such a thing. You should also be clear about the myth of Medea, and if you think about it, don't you think Medea is not pitiful? ”

Zhou Xiaoning coughed dryly, and at the same time couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, fortunately he didn't think of the idea of beating Rin Tosaka, otherwise the second half of his life would have left him.

"Uh...... That's right, do you want to let her go just because you think she is pitiful, don't be naïve! ”

Rin Tosaka felt that he was being surrounded by Zhou Xiaoning, and hurriedly returned to his rhythm. Even if she did feel that Medea was a little pitiful, in this Holy Grail War, they were hostile after all, and they couldn't stop fighting because they sympathized with her.

"That's right, the winner still has to be divided, but it doesn't have to be a fight of life and death."

Zhou Xiaoning walked straight to Medea, probably because Zhou Xiaoning helped her speak before, she had a good sense of Zhou Xiaoning, and she didn't attack him.

"Medea, I know that your only wish now should be to be by Soichiro Katsuki's side, and I can help you make it happen. Maybe you don't know, in fact, I'm still quite familiar with Gaia and Alayya, as long as you promise to contribute all your magic power, I can make you an ordinary person, and accompany Soichiro Katsuki to stay with him until the white head, how about it, it's a good deal. ”

Zhou Xiaoning smiled and gave a way that could be regarded as the best of both worlds, even if he was a moon elder for Medea and Soichiro Katsugi, and now he was waiting for Medea to nod.
