As he walked, Roland was thinking wildly in his mind, and the experience of self-discipline allowed him to find a sense of direction on the road to work with his eyes closed.

Today's result is quite satisfactory, and it is still worth the risk to meet with the dirty inkstone of the square tree, as Roland expected, for the old bug who has been twisted, this guy prefers to stand under the stage as a spectator when he is not running out of ammunition and fighting to the death, and does not mind giving a certain amount of help to cause unnecessary impact and get more fun.

Although people have been corrupted, it may also be for this reason, and the Jian Tong Dirty Yan is much more refreshing for this simple exchange of interests.

At the beginning, Roland was also hesitant to try to make a pact spirit from the dirty inkstone of the Akiri, after all, from the perspective of experience, this guy has a much higher success rate than Yusheng Ryunosuke, as long as he makes good use of the Killer Queen's first sight killing, it is very likely to do this.

But considering that the Dirty Yan of the Tree in the original book perfectly interprets the hundred-legged insect, the means of death without stiffness, Roland still gave up on this, in the absence of the Great Holy Grail to attract the other party must come in person, Roland can't even be sure whether the other party is just a worm clone, or the worm that saved his life is hidden in the distance.

In this case, it would be worth the loss, and in the case of uncertainty, it would not be a good experience to be the enemy of the Kiriki Dirty Inkstone, and it would be too embarrassing to be forced by this kind of guy to use the loser's dust to reverse time.

Fortunately, everything went well, and although the advantage of the prophet was less, the trace of the pact spirit was about to come out.

Judging from the influence caused by the Covenant Spirit, this guy's requirements for the host should be at least magical, and it is likely to be related to the Holy Grail.

So, who will that unknown pact spirit be?

Fuyuki City has already checked it himself, and Makiri, Tosaka, and Yanagito Temple have not detected any trace of the Qi Spirit, and after excluding these targets, the remaining range is undoubtedly much smaller.

The Great Holy Grail hidden in the big hollow underground, Darnik who participated in the four wars, and Einzberen, who was obviously the world line of the Holy Grail War, but did not summon Amakusa.

Roland had a dark expression and watched as the nails on his hands began to grow naturally.

——

In the deserted mountains, in the ancient castle closed by ice and snow, a long-lost day was liberated from the wind and snow.

Although the sky has not yet cleared, the milky white that is as bright as snow is much brighter than the dim and blurry snow.

In this land where there are no birds or green trees, even the change of light is a rare beauty for the occupants.

But Emiya Kiritsugu didn't want to appreciate it, he sat quietly at the table, looking at the information from his right-hand man in front of him.

"The masters of the Holy Grail War have been basically decided."

After a brief glance, he began to summarize in as simple words as possible.

"The Tosaka family is still the same, and it is a tricky target to always have an excellent magician as the master, but it is worth noting that he accepted a disciple sent from the Templar Church a few years ago, and after the other party also received the spell, he broke with him, although this is the case, but from the point of view of experience, I think he is an even more dangerous target than Tosaka Shichen."

After saying something to himself, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't get any response, he sighed a little helplessly and looked towards the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hall.

A young woman who looked to be in her twenties stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

She is as delicate as a doll, with shiny hair and fair skin, and red eyes that are as magnificent as jewels, just like an elf who is not in the mortal world.

Even if you wear a pure white dress that is difficult to control and has a single tone, and you don't wear any accessories, you can't hide your natural extravagance.

The princess of Einzberen, until now, Emiya Kiritsugu also feels that this title is very suitable for the other party.

It would be better if the other party could get rid of the character that goes off the line from time to time.

"Miss Alice Field? Are you listening? ”

"Oh, and I told you, Kiritsugu, just call me Alice Fill, we're friends."

The white elf responded in an ethereal voice, but its gaze remained firmly locked on the floor-to-ceiling window.

"Really? Although I am the real master, after all, you also need to attract firepower on the bright side, so it is better to pay more attention. ”

Although they have been together for a while, Emiya Kiritsugu still thinks that the two are just simple collaborators, not so-called friends, and as for the deeper relationship, it is just a trace of unrealistic longing that he once held in his heart.

In the final analysis, people like him should not have the luxury of happiness, especially at the moment when they find the ultimate salvation.

Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head, retracted his thoughts, and continued to explain the information of the Master.

"The Tong family forcibly introduced a person who failed to inherit as the master, this kind of half-person doesn't need to pay attention, and the rest is the most troublesome guy."

Gently sliding the mouse, looking at the two photos in the data that obviously have a gap of more than 60 years, but the appearance of the person being photographed has not changed at all, Emiya Kiritsugu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Danick Preston Yugdomirenia, a participant in the Third Holy Grail War, failed but retreated, achieving a color rating many years ago, and over the years, he has introduced a variety of soul-related achievements, and single-handedly created the Thousand Worlds Tree Family."

"The third time, and his current age?"

"It's almost a hundred years old, since the end of the last Holy Grail War, this guy has published a number of treatises on souls in the clock tower, and has received extremely high praise, taking advantage of this trend, the Thousand Worlds Tree family he founded has also begun to expand greatly, as long as it is a down-and-out magician, most of them will not refuse."

"Although it is not terrible at the moment, it is also a force to be feared in the clock tower, and in two hundred years, the Thousand Realms Tree may even become a big family comparable to the monarch level."

Hearing this exciting news, Alice Phil also came back to her senses slightly, and turned her head to look at Emiya Kiritsugu.

"An old-fashioned place like the Clock Tower shouldn't be so easy to expand."

"Yes," Emiya Kiritsugu's expression became much more solemn, "This is also where this man is really tricky, although he has extremely high achievements in magic, he is more like a politician, he only needs to find an excuse, he will play it wildly, reverse black and white, and use it for profit, with his own strength and means, there are already several small families that have been eaten up in the expansion of the Thousand Worlds Tree." ”

Speaking of this, Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes were also very complicated, "Although Danik is a magician, he knows very well about human nature and all kinds of shady methods, and he calls himself a nobleman, but he has no bottom line, and I have a very poor relationship with this guy, I obviously heard that he was silent in the study of a dress more than ten years ago, and he wasted a lot." ”

After a pause on the line, Emiya Kiritsugu tapped his fingers lightly on the table, making a low sound.

"Now it seems that this is just proof that Darnik is preparing for the beginning of the Fourth Holy Grail War, that guy, he must have gained something very incredible in the last time, so he will be so persistent, he already has the means to prolong his life, but he still has to participate in the war himself, fortunately, he has more trouble."

"What does that mean?"

Alice Phil tilted her head and looked at Emiya Kiritsugu suspiciously.

"The quota for the clock tower to participate in the battle this time was originally reserved by the monarch of the Ermelo family."

"That Ore Section's Ermero?"

"That's right," said this, a smile appeared on Emiya Kiritsugu's face, "For the sake of a place in the Far East Magic Competition, it is impossible for the Ermelo family to entangle with such a troublesome existence as Danik, but obviously, that prodigy named Kenneth doesn't think so." ”

"I guess I can't swallow this breath, he bypassed the rules of the Magic Association and forcibly bought a spare place, presumably ready to compete with Darnick."
