"Rika Fujimaru? Who's that? ”

That understatement of question made Liu Yuan feel cold all over his body.

After some questioning, Liu Yuan finally understood the situation.

First of all, it can be determined that Fujimaru Rika does exist, and he is one of several ordinary people who have the qualifications for the transfer of spiritual sons that Chaldea dug from the East, which is also consistent with the setting in Liu Yuan's impression.

But the difference is that Fujimaru Rika doesn't seem to have met Roman, while Matthew has met him in the corridor. The biggest turning point in the plot is that Rika Fujimaru was already in the Reiko transfer frame when the explosion occurred in the central control room, and she did not escape, and now she has been confirmed to be seriously injured and unconscious.

"How can this be ........?"

After listening to Roman and Matthew's explanations, Liu Yuan fell into confusion.

The protagonist of FGO, Rika Fujimaru, is actually a pigeon? At the beginning of the plot?

Is this man-made? Or is it a coincidence? Could it be that Gathia had foreseen the threat to him from Rika Fujimaru and used Professor Leif, who was lying in ambush in the Chaldees, to strangle him?

Liu Yuan couldn't think of a reason for it, but at least one thing was undoubted - if there was no Lixiang, there would be no master in Chaldea, even if he could reluctantly summon the heroic spirit like summoning Da Vinci, and without the master as a source of magic to maintain the existence of the heroic spirit, the summoned servants would soon dissipate.

Without the Heroic Spirit's Restoration Journey, it would be impossible to clear the level. In other words, it's a matter of human reason, and everyone's survival.

"Listen to me, Liu Yuan." Roman looked at Liu Yuan seriously, "I won't force you to make a decision, but whether you agree with my proposal or not, please establish a contract with Matthew first." As a sub-servant, she doesn't have too much magic power, but now without the master as a maintenance medium, the magic power in her body is constantly dissipating. If this continues, Matthew will lose his current appearance as a sub-servant and become an ordinary person again. ”

"Is that so?"

Liu Yuan looked at Matthew in surprise, and Matthew nodded at him helplessly.

"I can feel the mana slowly draining, and I expect that in an hour and a half, I won't be able to maintain my current strength."

"This peculiarity is dangerous, and if you lose Matthew's power, you will be very troubled." Roman said to Liu Yuan in a persuasive tone, "So no matter what, please ..... the two of you first." Stand...... Contract ......."

A vague noise came from the light screen, and Matthew and Liu Yuan's faces changed slightly.

"Doctor, the communication is starting to get messy."

Roman on the other side of the screen frowned: "....... Hmm, maybe it's because Sheba's output is not stable just after switching to the backup power supply. No way, I'll explain the rest later. Listen, you two, moving about two kilometers from your place to the north, there is a place with a strong spiritual vein, and if you go there, the communication on my side will be stable. Listen, don't mess around, this side will be powered as soon as possible-"

The light blue light screen made a "whoosh" sound and disappeared suddenly.

“........！？”

"Communication is broken." Liu Yuan said helplessly, "Without further ado, let's leave here before the enemy notices us." ”

Matthew advised, "Make a contract before then, or my mana will be cut in half before I reach my destination, and I'll be in trouble if I run into enemies along the way." ”

Liu Yuan scratched his head: "Ah....... Okay, too. What should I do? ”

"Hold out your hand first, yes. Turn the mantra upwards, relax, then concentrate and follow me. Declare—"

"Announcement."

"Thou shalt live in me, and my fate rests on thy shield........"

“........ At the call of the Holy Grail, if you are willing to obey the righteousness of this will and obey me, my command will be entrusted to you. ”

At the moment when the incantation was finished, the spell on the back of Liu Yuan's hand suddenly lit up red, and his dark eyes reflected red light, and he looked at this scene in surprise and curiosity.

Matthew also looked at him, his eyes flickering, and his heart was a little uneasy.

To be honest, Matthew hadn't completely reassured Liu Yuan yet, and she didn't know what kind of personality and style the person who was about to become her lord was in private. But the situation forced her, even if she was not at ease, she could only hand over the initiative in exchange for the ability to survive in this peculiar point.

Without the Master, the Heroic Spirit cannot fight, this sentence is not absolute, and some Heroic Spirits do have the means to override the Master. But at least for Matthew now, this sentence is indeed a helpless truth.

Now, I can only gamble.

Thinking of this, Matthew no longer hesitated, she put the fingers of her right hand on her left shoulder, and half-knelt and bowed her head: "In the name of Shieder, accept this contract and recognize you as the master, Liu Yuan." ”

As the words fell, the magic light of the spell in Liu Yuan's hand suddenly flourished, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a red aura that blew past Liu Yuan and Matthew.

At this moment, Liu Yuan clearly felt that a certain part of his body had been separated, but at the same time, something more powerful and substantial filled the vacancy.

"That's what it is....... Pact of the Immortal. Liu Yuan clenched his fists.

Now after signing the contract, Liu Yuan can clearly feel Matthew. Feel her state, feel her power. With the help of the spell, he was even able to 'see' the parameters of Matthew's abilities in the form of data.

【Matthew Gileadlet】

[Gender: Female]

【Faction: Land】

【Job:Servant】

【Attribute:Order·Good】

【Strength:C】

【Patience:A】

Agility: D.

[Mana: B]

【Lucky:C】

【Treasure:——】

[Career Skill: Mana A (Mana that can negate the magic array and the Instant Contract Grand Magic)]

[Job Skills: Riding C (Able to Skillfully Ride Mounts)]

[Job Skills: Possession Inheritance? (Obtain the skill 'Magical Defense' of the Possessed Heroic Spirit, which can directly convert mana into defense)]

[Intrinsic Skill: Now a Fragile Wall of Snowflakes (Converts the user's mental power into physical defense)]

[Intrinsic Skill: Hazy Chalk Wall (Staggers the target on the timeline for a moment and dodges attacks)]

【Treasure:——】

This familiar parameter once reminded Liu Yuan of the game, and the rows of values and skills were so kind and familiar. However, the fly in the ointment is that the descriptions of the treasures are all empty, which is probably an allusion to the fact that Matthew is currently in a state where he cannot use the treasures.

This problem must be solved as soon as possible, without the killer feature of Noble Phantasm, it will be very passive when facing other servants in the future.

Liu Yuan knew very well that signing a contract would not make him stronger, but the strength of the Heroic Spirit was the strength of the Master, and the Heroic Spirit was a summon and a part of the power of the Master. Now that he has a heroic spirit under his command, Liu Yuan is like an unarmed man who has obtained a sword, and finally has the capital to fight the enemy on an equal footing.

At the moment, Matthew is equivalent to Liu Yuan's 'weapon', of course, she has to be well maintained, sharpened and sharpened, so that she can be used to deal with the enemy.

"From now on, our destinies are linked." Matthew stood up and bowed to Liu Yuan a little nervously, "Please give me a lot of advice in the future, Master." ”

Liu Yuan smiled bitterly, "Ah, my side is." ”

Fujimaru Rika was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and Matthew actually became his own servant, really, what will happen next........
