The day after the funeral, an army of guild parties arrived in the Third District.

Although the third district has now become the base camp of the rebel Aindworth, the ground of a living area is so large, and 90% of the population is composed of scattered villages and towns, Eindworth cannot occupy all of them, so the main target of attack for the guild is circled.

With the main city of the third district, Al Ain, as the enemy's base camp, and the three second-tier cities surrounding Al Ain as the main defense line, the general goal is these, and specific actions need specific plans, which are the ......

"All here, then I declare the pre-war meeting to begin now."

In the large tent of the guild's temporary station, the commanders of the next battle gathered here, sitting on either side of the long table facing straight ahead.

Greeting everyone's gaze, Illya looked around and nodded, announcing loudly.

Now that the forces have been assembled, this meeting will determine the guild's plan for its next move.

Among these people, Zhou Yao was also mixed in and was at the bottom of the seat, and some people threw puzzled glances at him from time to time, but no one opened their mouths to ask.

Since it was called by Lord Elijah, then after all, there would be a meaning for his existence here...... That's pretty much what everyone else thinks.

"First of all, let's confirm the opponent's strength and deployment, I just got the information brought back by the sentry who went to the front to investigate."

With this sentence as a start, Illya turned and walked to the map behind her, stepped on the wooden box that had been prepared long ago, and continued with a satisfied snort.

Seeing this scene, everyone's faces trembled, and they couldn't help but say nothing, Zhou Yao also grinned slightly, and the corners of his mouth hurriedly covered it with his hand again.

If I complain at this time, I will definitely be killed.,Illya, who is a magician.,By the two personal maids standing on either side of Illya.,Especially the one who looked at his master with a caring eye.。

Speaking of the fact that Illya is a magician, Zhou Yao only found out about it not long ago, and when he first heard it, he was immediately stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

It turned out to be just as he had heard. Illya did become a magician, the magician of the third law that the Einzbelen family had been pursuing.

Now that there is no Holy Grail War, how did Illya become a magician?

Zhou Yao asked curiously, and learned that it was related to the establishment of the Holy Grail system.

I didn't expect to become a magician. This time things seem to be even more difficult...... Zhou Yao couldn't help muttering to himself when he thought of this.

"Who's going to have an opinion?"

As if hearing Zhou Yao's voice, Illya raised her eyebrows and spoke with dissatisfaction.

Opinion? Have an opinion on what? Ah, yes......

The people sitting in the room looked at the box at Illya's feet, and immediately understood what it meant.

Silence, deathly silence came.

Sensing Illya's gaze drifting towards her. Zhou Yao was a little weak for no reason, and looked into the distance.

It doesn't matter, Illya immediately had a tendency to go berserk when she saw it.

"Ahem, master."

Serra, who was on the side, couldn't see it, and reminded Illya in a low voice.

"Hmph, I'll let you go. I...... Where did it come from? ”

Illya twitched her nose and asked Sierra with a cold snort.

Ahh

Zhou Yao thought innocently in his heart.

"Starting over, we have only one ultimate goal, and that is to capture the city of Al Ain. Destroy the rebellious House of Eindworth. ”

Illya's regrouping momentum continues to pull back to the point.

"In order to capture the city of Ain, we need to break through the outer defensive line, which is these three cities."

Illya took the baton from Serra's hand and clicked on the map to the corresponding locations, which were the three cities on the outskirts of Ain City.

Why break through from the city?

Although there are three cities surrounding Al Ain, they are not tightly walled, and it is not enough to penetrate them from one city to another.

Zhou Yao immediately had this question, but seeing that others didn't speak, he continued to listen quietly.

"Now, with these three cities as a base, a powerful defensive barrier has been established. Although it is not all-round, it completely blocks the land side, like a city wall. It will undoubtedly take time and effort to force your way through the barrier, so you can only start with a city that is not blocked by the barrier. ”

Illya's words immediately answered Zhou Yao's question.

"There are three cities, and there must be local forces stationed there. My plan is to concentrate my main forces on one city to break through, and then select two groups of special teams to cause trouble in the remaining two cities. This is also to ensure that the troops of the other two cities cannot be hindered in the process of attacking Al Ain. ”

As she spoke, Illya gestured a few times with her baton on the map.

"I have arranged the candidates for the Einsatzgruppen, they are all foreign aid who are not guilds, and they will act alone when the time comes."

Hear this. Someone understood, and turned their eyes to Zhou Yao again.

Zhou Yao just shrugged his shoulders indifferently about this, since he was already here, he would obey the guild's arrangement.

Judging by what Illya means now, he should be one of the Einsatzgruppen. This arrangement suited his liking, and it was more convenient for him to act alone than to follow a large army.

As for the other group of the Einsatzgruppen, it's probably Shirou.

In addition to Zhou Yao, Shirou, who did not belong to the guild, was also present.

"Then before arriving at these three cities, that is, the distance between our current location and the city, according to the information we just got, a large number of ghouls were actually found, the number is roughly estimated to be more than 100,000, and they should all be residents of the three cities."

"Ghouls?!"

"Damn the Eindworth family, they actually committed such a crime, aren't they afraid of angering the public!?"

The people present immediately became agitated, and they showed angry expressions one after another.

Compared to them, Zhou Yao was much calmer, after all, he had already experienced a bigger battle when he was in the eleventh district.

"Silence! I'm in the same mood as you, and that's why we want to destroy the rebellious Eindworth! ”

Illya pinched her waist and said in a majestic voice, but it always felt a little ...... to say such things while standing on the square box

"That's right!"

"Of course!"

……

The atmosphere in the tent exploded at once, and everyone shouted loudly and hated the enemy.

"Now I declare that the time for war has come!"

Seeing that the time had come, Illya declared the beginning of the war.

"Yes!!" (To be continued.) )
