Noah didn't tell anyone about the unexpected encounter with Illya and the fact that he had been with him for a while.
As if nothing had happened, Noah went straight back to Tosaka's house, and after finding that Saber hadn't come out of the room and had been guarding Sakura Makiri, he also got into the room that Rin Tosaka had designated as his own and made up for sleep.
If you don't sleep now, you may not have a chance to sleep at night.
After all, it's the time when the Master and Servant are active.
If there is no problem on Archer's side, then, tonight, Rin Tosaka is expected to call Noah and act together.
In fact, it is indeed as Noah predicted.
After it got dark, Rin Tosaka, who didn't know when he would come back, knocked on Noah's door directly, and didn't give Noah a chance to answer, so he gave such a sentence directly.
"Come into the halls, Archer has found Caster's base."
Hearing this, the corners of Noah's mouth, which had replenished his spirit, slowly hooked.
……
In the lobby of Tosaka's house, the warm lights illuminate the surroundings.
Sitting on the main seat of the sofa, which was equivalent to the head of the family, Rin Tosaka crossed his arms and first glanced at Noah, who was sitting on a chair opposite, and then at another seat, who was sitting in a dignified posture. Saber, who had been disarmed, half-narrowed his eyes.
"Why is Saber here?"
Noah shrugged. said that he didn't know, which made Rin Tosaka roll his eyes.
"You've found Caster's base, haven't you?" Under the direct gaze of Rin Tosaka. Saber opened his mouth with a blank face.
"If you're going to crusade against Caster, let me join in!"
Noah smiled at Saber's words as if he had expected them.
But Rin Tosaka still looked directly at Saber and said bluntly.
"What's the purpose?"
"As a Servant, I've always had one purpose." Saber replied categorically.
"Is there anything wrong with destroying the other Servants and winning this Holy Grail War?"
"No, there's nothing wrong with that." Rin Tosaka sarcastically said not to be outdone.
"But our Servant is also within your range, right?"
"You are all the same. It's just a matter of priority, although it's a cooperative relationship, but in the end, it still needs to be divided into winners and losers. Saber looked at Rin Kamitosaka without fear.
"Sakura hasn't regained consciousness yet, which makes us very passive, so instead of being passive all the time, let's decide on a priority like you."
Rin Tosaka understood this.
"In other words, you want to enter into a partnership with us, too?"
"Now that the Master is unable to act. I think that's the best way to go. Saber glanced at Noah.
"Moreover, although they are enemies, the severity of their kindness is not affected by whether they are enemies or not. As a knight, I am obligated to repay you for your kindness. ”
What Saber said was naturally that Noah blindly accepted this matter regardless of the return.
"I see. It's very high-spirited and bright-hearted knights. Rin Tosaka ruffled her long hair and said indifferently.
"Well. Having the strongest Saber to help is also a good thing for our side. What do you think? ”
In the latter sentence, Rin Tosaka asked Noah.
"I'm okay with that." Noah also had a face full of indifference.
"Anyway, we can't fight now, so let's just cooperate first and solve the other Servants."
Hearing this, Saber immediately spoke up in agreement.
"Very wise judgment."
"Then it's decided." Rin Tosaka knocked down the result and called out.
"Then come out and explain, Archer."
As soon as Rin Tosaka's words fell, Archer's figure appeared behind him, from the original spirit state to the materialization, and entered the eyes of everyone present.
"Caster's current base is in Liudong Temple."
As soon as he appeared, Archer gave such a piece of information in a characteristic calm voice.
"This morning, the breath of the retreating Caster has continued to the Liudong Temple, and then it has not moved again, in order to confirm whether it is the witch's conspiracy, I also specially monitored there for a day, and now, it is basically certain that the Liudong Temple is Caster's base."
"Liudong Temple?" Noah and Rin Tosaka groaned at the same time.
Liudong Temple.
It was a temple in Fuyuki City, not a shrine.
It's just that it's a very special place.
If anything, in Fuyuki City, Yanagidong Temple is a rare spiritual place.
"A witch, actually hiding in the temple?" Noah pouted.
"It's really flattering."
"Are you sure Caster's base is in Liudong Temple?" Saber looked at Archer as well.
"Could it be that Caster is deliberately trying to seduce you?"
"Originally, I thought the same thing, but after careful investigation, I gave up this suspicion." Archer closed his eyes.
"If anything, Caster has already set up a position in the Liudong Temple, and the influence of that position has also extended to the entire Fuyuki City, and now, all the residents of Fuyuki City have become Caster's magic repositories, and their life force has been extracted, converted into magic, and all of them have flowed to the Liudong Temple."
"You... What did you say? Rin Tosaka's face finally changed color a little.
"Caster is extracting the life force of the entire population of Fuyuki City?"
Not to mention Rin Tosaka, but Noah and Saber both stared at each other.
"There's no going wrong." Archer spoke in a deep voice.
"If the area of influence is so wide, every Master and Servant should be able to detect it, and if you go out and take a closer look, you will find the flow of mana."
The audience was suddenly silent.
"Don't think I'm going to be silent watching in my territory, Caster's Servant." Rin Tosaka bit her lip and spoke out.
"Now that Caster's base has been determined, let's attack the Liudong Temple tonight!"
"Is that good?" As if he had expected Rin Tosaka to say this, Archer asked a rhetorical question as if he was ready.
"It's Caster's position, Caster's ability will be more or less improved, plus the magic of the entire inhabitants of Fuyuki City is used as the witch's repository, so breaking into it is like breaking into a trap directly, okay?"
"If it were just us, we might really have to think about it, but now that we're not the only ones here, there are two Masters and Servants, and I don't think Caster's little trick will succeed." Saying this, Rin Tosaka also looked at Noah.
"By the way, can your Rider come over?"
"Rider can come at any time." Noah replied with a calm face.
"It's just that, if you have this lineup, I don't think you need Rider to play, so let her continue her mission, if there's really anything, I'll directly use the 'Spell' to summon Rider."
Rin Tosaka pondered for a moment, then nodded.
Saber, however, moved slightly.
"Mission?"
"Don't worry about it, it's just a little thing." Noah spread his hands.
"But you, Saber, since you're going to go with us, what are you going to do with Sakura?"
"This is Rin's magic workshop, right?" Saber said without flinching.
"Well, Sakura should still be safe here."
Noah smiled noncommittally.
Safe?
Of course it's safe.
With the scabbard protecting it, it is impossible for Sakura to have an accident.
"Then it's decided!" Rin Tosaka spoke decisively.
"Tonight, it's up to us to attack the Liudong Temple and finish off Caster!"
Saber nodded at the same time as Archer.
Noah looked out the window, his eyes flashing slightly.
"Indeed, it's time for an exiter." (To be continued......)
