After returning to the Tang Dynasty, Zhou Chao completely devoted himself to the analysis of the last two layers of unknown information in the shuttle magic array.
And the result is also very good, although it is still not clear about the meaning and specific utility of all the magic patterns, runes and strange words on the shuttle magic array, but with the help of the crystal eye's powerful ability to directly observe the essence of things through appearances, Zhou Chao still advanced the analysis process of the shuttle magic array to about ninety percent in the past period of time, leaving only the last one to be cracked.
Then Zhou Chao couldn't help but temporarily stop the analysis work and embarked on a journey to another world again.
The reason is simple, the Fifth Holy Grail War in the Moon World is about to begin. In order to join in the excitement, by the way, Zhou Chao, who went to find Bai Ji afterwards and saw the utopian manifestation of his dreams, took Medea and Medusa and Sakura to set off together and went to the Moon World.
As for the other Asakami Fujino, who was also born in the world of the type moon...... After all, she was a little worse after all, and she was not suitable for such dangerous activities as the Holy Grail War, so for the sake of her life, Zhou Chao did not take her to 'return' with her.
……
"Smack."
In the explosion of blue light, the figures of Zhou Chao and Sakura appeared in a forest not far from Fuyuki City.
"Whew, it's been a long time." Zhou Chao exhaled softly, looked at the city that was clearly visible in the distance, and said softly.
Although it is really not too long since he left here at this time, it is only more than a year and almost two years, but he can't stand the many worlds experienced in the middle, and the situation of each world is obviously different from the state of the Xingyue world, which naturally makes Zhou Chao feel like he has experienced things for a long time.
It's just that it doesn't last, after all, the Zhou Dynasty is also a battle-hardened person. So after a little emotion, he put this useless thought aside, raised his hand and patted Sakura's shoulder, and casually said, "Let's go, let's go home." ”
Yes, go home. Since this is the Moon World, the apartment that was used as his foothold is naturally still stored, so that there is no need to go to other worlds, either staying in a hotel or renting a house, or just find a similar place.
"Yes." Sakura nodded in response and followed Zhou Chao out of the forest where she appeared. Move towards Fuyuki City in the distance.
Half an hour later, Zhou Chao and Sakura entered Fuyuki City and returned to the villa near Fuyuki Town.
"Hmm...... Lots of dust. Looking at the dusty furniture in the room, Sakura said with a frown.
"No one has lived in it for almost two years, so there is naturally a lot of dust." Zhou Chao said with a smile. Then he raised his hand and cast a spell at the dusty room.
"Clean up!"
Suddenly, I saw a wind of unknown source suddenly appear in the room, like an invisible rag, quickly blowing through the furniture in the room. Take away the dust from the furniture and show the furniture that has become tidy again in front of Zhou Chao and Sakura.
The messy objects in the house spontaneously returned to their original positions, the garbage was sorted out, and in the blink of an eye, one was not as clean as new. But the house that looked similar to the ordinary people who were usually cleaned up once again came into the eyes of Zhou Chao and Sakura.
"Alright, let's go inside." At this time, Zhou Chao did not stay any longer and took off his shoes. Walked into the house.
Although Sakura felt that the situation in the house was still a little worse, she did not object and nodded silently. I also took off my shoes and walked in.
Then the two of them walked to the place they intended to go to and did their own things.
For example, Zhou Chao sat on the sofa in the living room, took the remote control on the side, and turned on the TV. Sakura walked straight into the utility room where the miscellaneous items were kept, took out things such as rags and basins, and connected the sleeves of the bay, and cleaned the house that had been cleaned with magical powers......
The first day of return passed in a blink of an eye in this kind of daily life similar to that of ordinary brothers and sisters.
The next day, after a night's rest, the energetic Zhou Dynasty finally set his mind on the upcoming Fifth Holy Grail War, and the first thing he did was to release Medea.
As for why it was her and not another spirit he had also brought back to the Moon World, it was to test whether the spirit that had been changed the contract would still be able to receive the support of the 'world' after returning to the 'source', and whether it would attract the interference of the 'world'.
As for the consequences of the world's interference...... As long as she didn't instantly destroy Medea's existential roots, the Zhou Dynasty, which had the inherent enchantment that could resist the corrective power of the 'world', would definitely be able to save her in the first place, and she would definitely not be in a desperate situation of certain death.
In an instant, a warm aura gathered, and Medea, dressed in a purple ancient Greek sacrificial robe, appeared in the room.
The Zhou Dynasty did not move, concentrating on the changes in the space around him, so as to be able to react accordingly when there was a change in the first place.
Then, just like a reservoir that had opened the floodgates, Zhou Chao felt that his spiritual power was rapidly decreasing and disappearing, and almost in the blink of an eye, about one percent of his spiritual power was consumed! Don't look at the value, it seems to be very small, but if you calculate it by the number of magic, it is enough for Zhou Chao to use it twice at one time, and the power is enough to destroy the normal equestrian form, and it is still in the blink of an eye, which shows how big this consumption is.
"My magic is draining at a rapid rate." At the same time, Medea, who had just come out, looked directly at Zhou Chao with her eyes hidden under the hood, and said softly.
"It seems that although the inhibition force has not corrected your anomaly, it has also not given you the support of the 'world' again, obviously trying to make you annihilate yourself." Zhou Chao smiled bitterly when he heard this.
This is just like when he returned to the Tang world with Medea and Medusa, the spirit without the support of the 'world' is simply a magical black hole, if you don't want to find a way to solve it quickly, it won't take long for it to dissipate on its own because there is no magic to maintain the body, and it is no wonder that the inhibition force has no reflection.
"What are you going to do now?" Medea asked in a flat tone, without any sense of urgency as if she was going to disappear.
"The old way, we ......"
It's just that before he finished speaking, a sound of eager footsteps came from behind Zhou Chao. interrupted the words, drawing the attention of Zhou Chao and Medea to the direction where the voice came from.
In an instant, the figure of Sakura, who was dressed in off-white jeans and a pale pink coat, caught the eyes of Zhou Chao and Medea. Then without waiting for Zhou Chao to ask, Sakura took the lead in speaking with a strange expression.
"Brother Zhou Dynasty."
"Huh?"
"I was chosen."
"What?" Zhou Chao was stunned, but then he came back to his senses, and his expression changed slightly to look at the back of Sakura's right hand that was raised at the right time. Sure enough, on the back of Sakura's originally white and smooth hand, a red pattern that looked like a radiation symbol and a cherry blossom petal suddenly appeared, as if there was already a zài, and there was no trace of the tattoo.
"Damn it!"
Needless to say. This is the handiwork of inhibition. Otherwise, where would Sakura, who just came back, become a MASTER by such a coincidence? This is simply not in accordance with the rules! Didn't you see how long did Princess Weber toss to become a MASTER during the fourth war?
But what if you know about this kind of thing? Can you still resist? Except to send Sakura back directly to keep her away from this Holy Grail War completely, otherwise she can only accept her fate. Otherwise, Sakura wouldn't have expected to return to the Moon World in her life.
As for why didn't you choose Zhou Chao in the suppression...... Probably because Zhou Chao had the mark of another world on his body, so that the inhibition force could not directly do anything to him in such a short world, so he had to choose the nearest Sakura.
After all, no matter how heretical the magic system Sakura is learning, its body itself still contains the mark of the Moon World, and although it doesn't seem to be of much use, it's still okay to play a role in some small things.
Like now.
"Forget it, we'll talk about that later. Let's go to the lower Liudong Temple first. Then Zhou Chao scolded in his heart, stretched out his hand to hold Sakura in his arms, and at the same time wrapped his other hand around Medea's waist and launched a lesson from Medea. And in the Moon World, the space transfer magic that is more in line with the rules of the Moon World disappears from the apartment in an instant.
Then the next moment, it appeared in the Liudong Temple, where the Zhou Dynasty had lived for several months. You're welcome, just turn over and take out a few red queen brand numb's drunken potions, and open them. After using his superpowers to protect himself, Sakura, and Medea, he spilled the liquid inside.
In an instant, I saw a colorless and odorless smoke quickly disperse, and in the blink of an eye, it filled the front and back courtyards of the entire Liudong Temple. Sewing into the house, he stunned an unsuspecting monk.
"Plop, plop ......"
"Medea, let's get started." Zhou Chao ignored the monk who had fainted, and directly turned his head to Medea beside him and said.
"Okay." Medea, who also knew that things should not be wasted, did not talk nonsense, nodded in agreement, and quickly started the construction of her workshop, the temple.
"Sakura, go and gather all the monks in the temple." Seeing Medea acting, Zhou Chao commanded Sakura, who was temporarily idle beside him.
"Yes." The latter nodded in agreement and also took action in the temple.
Then there was nothing to do for the time being, just to ensure that his spiritual power and magic power were not exhausted, and Zhou Chao, who had maintained Medea's existence, turned around and walked to the side hall, sat down on the porch, closed his eyes slightly, and used the meditation technique that combined with the spiritual training secret method of the mountain clan and was newly transformed to restore his spiritual power.
For a while, except for a slight sound of footsteps and the occasional sound of objects colliding, the entire Liudong Temple was completely quiet.
Then time passed, and time came to the evening in a blink of an eye.
Just as Sakura was preparing dinner with the tools and ingredients in the temple, and Medea continued to build the half-finished temple, a rhythmic footstep came from outside the temple.
Although he had been in a state of recovering his mental power, Zhou Chao, who didn't seem to know anything about the outside world, raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to release a magic-type terminator, asking him to deal with the people outside.
Immediately, the form of the magical terminator flashed and disappeared into the atrium of the temple.
……
At this time, on the mountain road steps of Liudong Temple.
A short-haired middle-aged man wearing a gray professional suit, with a thin figure, holding a black briefcase in his hand, and a stiff face without any expression, walked step by step towards the mountain gate of Liudong Temple.
This person is none other than the master of Caster Medea in the original book, the original killer and now the teacher of Ho Qun Yuan Academy-Soichiro Katsugi. At this time, he lived in the Liudong Temple as in the original book, so it was unfortunate that he intersected with the actions of the Zhou Dynasty.
Then Soichiro Katsugi's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his eyes looked up at the front of the mountain road without wavering.
I didn't know when, a cold woman wrapped in a tight one-piece leather coat with red queens and long pale blonde hair coiled high behind her head appeared in the middle of the mountain road where he and the mountain gate met, blocking his way. - Exactly the Terminator!
Soichiro Katsugi quietly stared at the Terminator, who was also expressionless, and did not speak, but once again moved his feet and walked up towards the mountain gate, looking unconcerned.
But things didn't change because of his silence. I saw that in the next second, the figure of the terminator who was originally standing in the middle of the mountain road disappeared in vain, and instantly appeared in front of Soichiro Katsugi who was walking, and his right hand was palmed into a knife, and he stabbed directly at Soichiro Katsugi with a whining sound of breaking the air. However, it failed, and when he saw that Soichiro Katsugi, who was about to be stabbed, suddenly made a big jump, quickly jumped backwards, and dodged the Terminator's attack without a single shot.
However, the Terminator was unforgiving, and rushed forward directly, appearing in front of Soichiro Katsugi again as if teleporting, clenching his fist with his left hand, and slamming straight into Soichiro Katsuki's face.
Soichiro Katsuki's expression remained unchanged, his half-bent body that had just landed flashed slightly, brushing the Terminator's fist to dodge the attack, and then flicked his arm in vain...... In an instant, after hearing the crisp sound of "pop", Soichiro Katsuki's arm slammed into the Terminator's face door like a whip, and the Terminator's head was uncontrollably thrown back.
It was Soichiro Katsugi's murderous technique mastered - snakes.
But after smoking, the brows on Soichiro Katsuki's face, which had not changed much, couldn't help but frown slightly, the reason was very simple, the feel was wrong!
As a trained killer, despite being the kind of killer who only performs a mission once in his life, he can't misdistinguish the blow of a real human skull from other substances, not to mention the different feedback power between the two, so he sensed something strange the moment he used the 'snake' to hit the Terminator in the face.
Immediately, Soichiro Katsugi's heart couldn't help but sink slightly, (to be continued......)
