Chapter 211: The Magic Association Arrives

(Ahem, I didn't roar, I just simply asked for a vote~~)

A name that has never been recorded in history, no matter how much nonsense it is, Joan of Arc and Sajo Ayaka can't tell whether it's true or fake. However, since you can become a Heroic Spirit, you must have a great feat that will be recognized by the Holy Grail, and it is true that whether it is a human being, a beast, or even a thing that does not belong to the category of living beings, it is possible to become a Heroic Spirit, a mimic god. This principle is not much different from the 8 million deities that are widely circulated in Japan.

The 'life experience' revealed by Ling Yi is undoubtedly his great merit in becoming a heroic spirit.

Although there is a bit of a reckless, desperate impulsive element in it, in terms of results, he is not a bad person.

Joan of Arc thinks so.

"Wow, it sounds like Zorro."

Ayaka Sajo was just in pure amazement, she couldn't understand the meaning of the fabricated act.

"Joan of Arc, you can understand that, right? The Master who summoned me has been imprisoned by Eltruki, but I can't agree with what she did, and that's why I disobeyed orders and came out to save you. Lacner is no ordinary spearman, and you know that, and you need to be prepared to fight him, but now is not the time to act. I don't want the winner to be Elt Luki. Ling Yi said in a deep voice with his chin in his hands.

Joan of Arc was indeed a little surprised, but she quickly understood what Ling Yi meant.

Judging from the experience he revealed before, he threw himself into the darkness for the sake of innocent people. How could an unknown assassin who assassinated those in power who tried to provoke war tolerate Elt Luki? She turned 99 percent of the city's ordinary citizens into ghouls, which was even more cruel than war. The soldiers who finally went to the battlefield at least had the consciousness of sacrifice and could be regarded as those who knew it, while those ordinary citizens ushered in the fear of natural disasters without knowing it.

If it weren't for the spell in Altruki's hand, this assassin would have done it a long time ago.

Joan of Arc guessed in her heart, and said, "Call me Ruler, I am called by the will of the Holy Grail." Coming to correct the anomaly. Revealing your real name is also a big hassle. Masters and servants other than you. I guess they're all hostile to me, and things like that happen happen a lot. ”

"What happened just now?"

Hearing Ayaka Sajo's question, Joan of Arc replied lightly, "I ran into a hot-headed guy, but luckily the Assassin helped me out." ”

If you say, 'It was a very difficult situation. Almost liberated the treasures against each other. And the enemy also hid ambushes. One-handed archery skills are unparalleled in the world, and it is not impossible to say that there are many dangers', and Ayaka Sajo will probably turn pale with fright.

"Okay Ruler, what do you think? Would you be interested in helping me? ”

Ling Yi's mission is mainly twofold.

One is to prevent others from getting the Holy Grail. One is to teach Alt Luki to be a human being.

These two tasks are not to mention Joan of Arc, even he did not anticipate. But in general, the mission requirements are relatively general, only restricting him to not take other people's spells, and he can't kill any enemies, so there is only one way to complete the first mission, and that is - to kill people with a knife.

With just a half-hung Dead Apostle in the Sand Strip Ayaka, it is no problem to deal with the Master.

But for the follower, there is only one way to die. What's more, now that the division of camps is very obvious, once a shot at a certain target, it will undoubtedly cause big trouble, and it will affect the whole body, Ling Yi doesn't want to make the situation chaotic so quickly.

The existence of Joan of Arc can be said to be a tranquilizer.

"My intention was to correct the violations, but my position is absolutely neutral and I will not intervene in any disputes, and if you want to use my hand to kill the master, I am very sorry that it is impossible." Joan of Arc agrees with the other party's ideas, but she also has her own principles. Once you join forces with other Servants, then the position of the identity of the 'Adjudicator' will be questioned, which is tantamount to slapping yourself in the face.

"No, you misunderstood me."

Ling Yi had expected it, and shook his head slightly and said.

"Although I hate those in power who implicate others for their own selfish desires, I am now a servant, and I have also had the experience of 'taking money to help others' before, even if my employer does something disgusting, I am still an accomplice until the relationship between the two parties is completely dissolved."

"What's more, Eltruki's [Dominance] is extremely terrifying, and the words that come out of her mouth are almost as powerful as a spell, no matter how dissatisfied I am, I can't resist it."

"So, what exactly are you going to do?"

"As far as I can, I will never help her kill any of her servants and masters, and do everything I can to prevent her from taking the Holy Grail, even if it costs me my life."

A sonorous, obvious sense of determination.

Hearing this, Joan of Arc couldn't help but be moved.

This person turned out to be serious.

Even though he was shackled, he still fought in his own way.

There is not a trace of intrigue, it is purely an expression of its will. She had no doubt about the credibility of the other party's words, a heroic spirit with such an aura, even if he was an assassin, had a unique principle.

Ayaka the sand on the side was already silent. She finally figured out the real reason why this guy didn't kill herself.

Because, he understands that he is not safe alone.

Even if he committed suicide, he would only cause a little trouble for Eltruci at best.

- It's just an Assassin.

Although he knew about it well, he still didn't regret it in the slightest, but changed his mind slightly, hoping that someone would take advantage of his self-sacrifice and make it play a major role in 'stopping Elt Luki'.

It's so unfair, but is there anything else to do about it?

Ayaka Sajo was at a loss.

β˜†

is also the master.,The phase between Shinji Makiri and Rin Tosaka is simply extremely poor.。 It's even more exaggerated than the repulsion between two magnets. It's almost to the point where fire and water are incompatible.

"What did you say?"

Facing Shinji Makiri, whose eyes widened like an angry beast, Rin Tosaka stood with his hands around his chest, although the bust was a bit regrettable, but I had to admit that this was the most suitable posture for her, and her calm and free momentum was not affected at all.

"Huh? Why is there such a big reaction, could it be that I'm right, that's really surprising, it's obviously the master but he can't even see the other party's value, isn't this really because he was too timid and hid too far? Or is itβ€”" Rin Tosaka glanced at him with squinting eyes.

"Isn't it enough to be competent?"

"You! How many times do you want me to explain. That hooded bastard may have a treasure with hidden values. ”

"Maybe? So. What about the other one? ”

"This"

As soon as these words came out, Shinji Makiri's expression suddenly froze.

It's not just the two of them, except for the master and slave of Kiriri Sakura, who has not yet returned, and the master and slave of Illya, who is nested in the workshop, almost all of them are present. After all, it was the first contact with the servants of the Eltruqi camp. He even fought to the point of almost liberating the Noble Phantasm. One can imagine how dire the situation was at that time.

But Ling Yi ordered a retreat. The battle ended in a hurry.

Later, after returning to the church, Rin Tosaka suggested that Shinji Mama and the others describe the specific situation.

Then several parties took turns to explain, and it turned out that there was a problem on Shinji Makiri's side.

He was the only master present at the time. At least not even Atalanta noticed the aura of the other masters.

Once you become the master of the contract with the Heroic Spirit, you are granted the power of vision that can see through the abilities of other servants. Although the Holy Grail War invited the Heroic Spirits to participate, it only granted the Master's special ability.

There are two main elements to evaluate the general strength of the Heroic Soul - ability value and treasure.

Ability values are various abilities, such as tendon, agility, durability, luck, treasure, and magic.

Generally speaking, even the most ordinary E-class has a value that is more than ten times that of ordinary people.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the B-level and A-level heroic spirits are so terrifying in battle.

The reason for dividing the Noble Phantasm separately is that sometimes, the level and effect of the Noble Phantasm do not match. The most obvious example is the spearman of the Fourth World War period in the original book, Dilumudo. The twin guns held by Audi, their grade is B, which is considered a first-class treasure, but the effect is not satisfactory.

According to legend, the effect of destroying the Yellow Rose is a deadly curse that makes the wounded irreparable and becomes more and more serious and eventually dies, fearing countless people. The effect of the Demon Breaker Red Rose is to defeat all magic and break the curse with a magic spear, as a result, the former is reduced to an irreparable injury, and the latter becomes a mana that cuts off the flow of magic.

This is a waste of treasures.

Despite this, the ability value and the Noble Phantasm, the two key elements in assessing the general combat power of the Heroic Spirit, the Master can see through the ability value of the Heroic Spirit. In this way, it can be used as powerful intelligence.

And Shinji Makiri, but he didn't have any clues for a long time.,It's 'The other party may have a treasure or inherent skill that hides the ability value'.,This reason is good.,But-

"It's not like even the other blonde girl's heroic spirit, you can't see her ability, right?"

Rin Tosaka said with a sigh. To be honest, she really didn't mean to find fault, and even when she saw Shinji Makiri's appearance, she wasn't too disappointed that she wasn't even interested in finding fault, this guy.

"I'm sorry, teacher."

Shinji Maki bowed his head to Ling Yi with a look of shame. In any case, although he admitted his mistake, he could not fuel Rin Tosaka's arrogance.

"It's nothing, it's just a small thing."

Ling Yi waved his hand, staring at the magic information in front of him, completely ignoring the quarrel between the two of them.

After all, when it comes to blame, he knows better than anyone else that his knight's uniform is specially custom-made, so that his true face will not be revealed, so as not to recognize it as the notorious 'supernatural' of the past. Therefore, as long as he wears a knight's uniform, his ability value and face are completely hidden, and even Elt Luki can't see it.

Not to mention Shinji Makiri.

As for the Ruler, Joan of Arc is probably one of the perks that the Holy Grail gives her to hide her stats.

As a adjudicator, I am also in a sensitive position. A little inattention can easily arouse the hostility of the contestants, which can help her avoid some trouble.

"It's not right to spoil a disciple."

"How about you being my student too? I assure you, this is definitely not something to be jealous of. ”

Regarding Rin Tosaka's dissatisfaction, Ling Yi blocked her with a casual word.

"(Well done)" Shinji Maki silently gave a thumbs up. Of course, it was behind Ling Yi's insight.

"Oh yes." Ling Yi suddenly remembered something, looked at Jian Tong Shinji with a smug face, and said with an unchanged expression: "Before the sun sets, go and help me do something." Rin also knows the way. ”

"Don't shout so intimately!"

Ignored the girl's complaints.

Ling Yi continued, "I quietly opened a hole in the barrier of Eltruqi a few days ago, and then sent an envoy to ask for assistance from the association. But they were not very easy to meddle in, so they only promised to provide help other than manpower. It just so happened that Caster needed a batch of materials to make the Golem. I took the opportunity to extort a sum of money from the association. The time is almost there, and you and Lancer follow the route I provided, and go to the junction location to standby. ”

"How dare you blackmail."

Continue to ignore it.

"Because I can't guarantee that the rumors will leak out, only Lancer's combat power is more reliable. So the task is up to you. ”

"Understood! Teacher. ”

As soon as I heard, 'This is a task that only you can do.' Shinji Maki suddenly perked up.

"Let's go. Lancer。 ”

With a wave of his hand, he walked briskly out of the reception room.

There is a lot of fearlessness.

"Wouldn't it be better to leave this matter to me? With Archer's scouting ability and mobility that is not inferior to Rider's, it's completely handy to take on such a trivial matter. Rin Tosaka said casually. The afterglow fell on Ling Yi's face.

"Why do you ask such a stupid question if you know what the Tao is for?" Ling Yi put down the information in his hand, glanced at her lightly, and picked up the handbook next to him.

"Stupid"

Without waiting for Rin Tosaka to get angry, Ling Yi said:

"It is precisely because of Archer's reconnaissance ability and excellent foot strength that we can stay here with peace of mind, otherwise we don't know when the enemy will attack, and if something happens to Shinji's side, only Archer can arrive at the first time."

"Makes sense."

Rin Tosaka thought for a moment and figured out the key to the matter.

She is not stupid, on the contrary, among all the people here, except for Ling Yi, she is the best in terms of tactical level and thinking ability.

"Anyway, Sakura hasn't come back yet."

Rin Tosaka, who was ashamed of the gaffe just now, tried to change the subject.

"With Rider here, he is one of the twelve warriors under Charlemagne, although his strength is not very good, but for ghouls, it is an exceptional existence."

Ling Yi shattered her illusions lightly.

Once again, the atmosphere returned to awkwardness.

Of course, only one-sidedly.

Woo it's okay for everyone, hurry up and come back one.

Rin Tosaka prayed inwardly.

β˜†

Sunny and cloudless weather is rare in winter, but as we approach evening, the sky still darkens very quickly. The duo, who seem to be a little out of tune, are sitting in the office of a gas station next to a suburban highway. Instead of the Master, who looked impatiently at the other end of the highway, Karna closed his eyes and fell asleep.

"Tsk, it's slow."

I can't remember the first time I've muttered like this.

Although before coming, Shinji Maki made all the preparations, bringing a map, noting down the physical characteristics of the association's personnel, the specific quantity and type of goods. Ling Yi had confessed that if the Magic Association cut corners, he must tell him.

Shinji Maki still remembers the dark expression of the teacher.

It's a little chilling to think about.

However, according to the estimated time, it should be at 5:10 tonight to arrive at the outskirts of Fuyuki City by car, and then use the 'hole' opened by the teacher to sneak into Fuyuki City, and meet at a suburban gas station less than 10 kilometers away from Xindu.

Result –

"It's almost half past five now, damn the guild people, don't you have a little sense of time!" Shinji Maki stared at the time displayed on the screen of his phone, and every time he looked at him, his anger became more and more vigorous.

If it weren't for the teacher's instructions to him not to leave the confines of Fuyuki City, and not to touch that barrier, he would probably have taken Karna to the neighboring city to wait.

"Alas, I thought it was an easy errand."

When he relaxed, he felt a sense of tiredness hit him, even though his body could no longer be regarded as an ordinary human, but the consumption of mana was another matter. In the fierce battle a few hours ago, Karna completely wielded the white-knuckle combat strength of the strongest spearman without liberating the Treasure, but the magic consumption was no less than that of the Liberation Treasure.

One is a one-time consumption and the other is a gradual consumption.

In any case, the degree is about the same.

Shinji Makiri's magic power is far more than that of ordinary magicians, and even if a great hero like Karna is supplied to fight to his heart's content, he can last for more than ten or twenty minutes. However, after this time, he was afraid that he would pass out, because the damage to his body was great due to the overdraft of his magic power.

"Lancer, I feel the magician's breath calling me, I'll rest for a while."

"Yes."

Shinji Makiri fell asleep on the table in the duty room like this.

Since the emperor is resting, he can't be too casual as a servant.

In order not to disturb the Master's rest, Karna left the duty room and stayed outside to keep his guard. He has no instincts, and he has a naturally strong ability to seek enemies, but with his vast experience and terrifying combat awareness, no enemy will want to slip out of his nose.

Still, when I think of the daytime battles.

His mind was slightly moved.

Karna, who is good at seeing through all lies, has a power of observation and judgment that ordinary people can't match, and the Assassin who suddenly jumped out and took Archer's four arrows obviously didn't do it by sheer skill.

Although there are also skill elements in it, no matter how subtle the skill is, it will definitely not be able to stifle the explosive magic contained in each arrow. One of the arrows landed on the ground and caused considerable damage, as you can see that the arrow that shoots out will first penetrate and then explode if it hits any target.

It doesn't matter if there is no penetration, as long as there is a trace of turmoil, the magic contained in the arrow will explode.

And the servant was able to be safe.

At that time, it seemed that I felt something strange magic.

Is that the reason? (To be continued......)
