Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch.

Chapter 523 The Holy Grail War
"It has been ten years since I came to this world..."

Tong Shen stroked the broken gun head full of history in front of him and murmured to himself.

Ten years ago, when he came to this world, he would never have thought that one day he would travel through time and become one of the most hated male anime characters ever.

The body he is looking at now, his real name is Matou Shinji.

He is the character in the game and the animation of the same name "Fate/stay night", the eldest son of the famous Matou family of magic.

Although this guy has an outstanding appearance, he has an extremely bad personality and is full of twisted self-esteem and vanity. He is a hateful and pathetic character like a clown.

In the original plot, since Matou Shinji had no magic talent, in order to pass on the magic circuit, the Matou family adopted a girl with outstanding magic talent from the Tosaka family, who was also a famous magic family, named Tosaka Sakura.

Since then, Matou Shinji has had an unrelated sister.

At the beginning, Matou Shinji was extremely hostile to this sister, but soon he discovered that the sister who was renamed Matou Sakura was a taciturn and mediocre person, so he began to recognize her.

Until later, he accidentally discovered the room - the naked girl in the center of the room, the black insect swarm, the terrifying grandfather, and his father who glanced at him with eyes he had never seen before, as if he saw trouble... …

The reversal between reality and ideals makes Matou Shinji's character become more and more distorted.

He vaguely understood that he was the dispensable person in the Matou family. He was afraid of being replaced by Sakura, so he became more and more violent, and often violently abused Sakura, who had been submissive. In the end, he even said, "If you want to apologize, you have to hand over something." "For raped her...

Recalling Matou Shinji in the original plot, Tong Shen from ten years ago suddenly felt disgusted.

As a Chinese young man with normal views, Tong Shen will naturally not become the person in the original work.

But just like that, Tong Shen felt that it was not enough.

Because the root cause of the tragic fate of Matou Shinji and Matou Sakura is not just Shinji's twisted character and the Matou family's inheritance needs, but the contemporary head of the Matou family, Matou Zouken.

This old man is apparently the grandfather of Matou Shinji and Matou Sakura. In fact, he is the first head of the Matou family six generations ago, an old monster who has survived for 500 years by relying on evil means.

Even if he changes from the twisted clown in the original work to a good brother who truly cares about his sister, he cannot change Matou Sakura's fate.

She would still accept the magic transformation of the Matou family at a young age, and eventually transform into a qualified heir to the Matou family's magic circuit.

To be honest, if you just look at the purpose, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it.

But for his own ambition, Matou Zouken added many things that should be humanely destroyed in the process of engraving inheritance, such as implanting a large number of engraving insects into Sakura's body.

These disgusting bugs will come in and out of various holes in her body...

Tong Shen didn't even dare to think about more forms of nausea.

For a five-year-old girl, this is undoubtedly a huge shadow that will accompany her throughout her life.

So, after three days of ideological struggle, Tong Shen, who is only six years old physically but has matured mentally, finally made a difficult decision——

He wants to take her away from the clutches of the Matou family before Matou Zouken attacks Sakura.

If he wants to do this, he will definitely not be able to do it with his six-year-old body.

So he found a way to contact his uncle, the only man in the Matou family with a rebellious spirit, Matou Kariya.

In the end, after some fierce twists and turns, Tong Shen finally got what he wanted, and with the help of Matou Yanye, he escaped from the Matong family with Sakura and quietly came to the Chinese mainland at that time.

At the same time, due to Matou Kariya's advance arrangements, their identity problem has also been resolved.

Later, in the orphanage, Tong Shen relied on the memory of his previous life and showed extremely excellent learning ability. He became a famous child prodigy in X City. Many families who had lost the ability to have children wanted to adopt them.

But Tong Shen did not make a decision immediately, but carefully selected his future adoptive parents.

In the end, he chose a couple named Tong. The adoptive father was a mathematics teacher at a local high school, and the adoptive mother was a disabled person who lost her lower body in a rear-end car accident.

The couple had a deep relationship and were not tied down by the elders in the family, so they chose to adopt a child.

Tong Shen got what he wanted, that is, he found a family where his sister could be entrusted, and he was able to change his name back to his previous life and break away from the identity of his childhood. It can be said that he killed two birds with one stone, achieving mutual benefit and win-win.

The brother and sister just forgot about the past and lived quietly in China.

With the foresight and help of Tong Shen, his adoptive father resigned from his position as a teacher and started an electronic product business with his savings.

By the time Tong Shen was 17 years old, the Tong family had a small amount of assets. At least it was not too difficult to support him to study abroad.

Tong's father originally wanted Tong Shen to study in Europe and the United States like the children of his business partners, but Tong Shen said that he wanted to go to Neon, and named him to go to Suiqunhara Academy in Fuyuki City to attend high school.

At that time, the Chinese people's hatred of Japan was still relatively strong.

Father Tong was extremely dissatisfied with his adopted son's decision, and the father and son had a rare quarrel.

But no matter what, Tong Shen still insisted on his decision, and Tong's father had no choice but to follow his wishes.

As a result, Tong Shen returned to Fuyuki City once again and became a transfer student at Suiqunyuan Academy.And the reason why he insisted on coming back here was naturally because of Matou Kariya.

In order to rescue Tong Shen and Matou Sakura, Matou Kariya stayed alone in Fuyuki City after the break. After that, he lost contact with Tong Shen and no news came from him.

Although Tong Shen never mentioned it, he still thought about his savior all the time in his heart.

For ten years, he and Ying lived a peaceful life in China, but the life and death of those who truly deserved happiness was uncertain. This was unfair.

Therefore, Tong Shen came back this time with the intention of becoming a Master and participating in the upcoming Fifth Holy Grail War.

The so-called Holy Grail is a legendary treasure that can fulfill all wishes of the holder.

About once every 60 years, the spiritual power in Fuyuki City's leylines will accumulate enough to support the birth of the Holy Grail. However, in the end, only a pair of servants and a master can obtain the Holy Grail and realize their wishes, controlled by seven magicians. The Lord led the Heroic Spirit Servants they summoned, and the war broke out in order to obtain the ownership of the Holy Grail, that is, the Holy Grail War in Fuyuki City.

As you can tell from this name, the purpose of the war is to compete for the Holy Grail.

But as a time traveler who knows the plot, Tong Shen is not interested in this abnormal Holy Grail. He participates in the Holy Grail War mainly to use the power of heroic spirits to fight back to the Matou family and save Matou Kariya, whose life or death is uncertain.

If possible, he would also like to kill that disgusting old monster Matou Zouken.

Of course, all of this has an extremely important premise.

That is, he must summon the heroic spirit before the time limit comes and become one of the seven masters.

The original Matou Shinji had no talent as a magician, so it was naturally impossible for him to become the master of heroic spirits.

But Tong Shen was different. He found that his soul seemed to be extremely special. After traveling to Matou Shinji, some mysterious power in his soul was constantly transforming this body.

At the same time, there are still traces of the magic circuit in the Matou family lineage, or genetic factors, possessed by Matou Shinji.

As long as there is strong enough external force to interfere, the closed loop will be forced to open.

Therefore, under the transformation of the mysterious power from the soul, the magic circuit in Tong Shen's body gradually connected.

Today, he has completely opened up the magic circuit and officially became a magician.

Thinking of this, Tong Shen couldn't help but raise his right hand and look at the watch on his wrist.

"There are still three hours left..." Tong Shen said to himself.

According to the process of the Holy Grail War, once the spiritual power in the earth's veins is accumulated enough to support the birth of the Holy Grail, the next step is to select seven Masters suitable to participate in the war, that is, the Master.

After all seven Masters and Heroic Spirits appear, the Holy Grail War will begin.

Today, the Holy Grail War has lasted for nearly 200 years.

Just ten years after the Fourth Holy Grail War, the Fifth Holy Grail War was started again.

This is because the Fourth Holy Grail War ended when most of the magic power accumulated in the Great Holy Grail was unused, so it didn't take much time to replenish the magic power again.

As for the quota of the seven masters...

Generally speaking, the three imperial families of Einzbern, Matou, and Tohsaka are basically appointed by default.

But due to Tong Shen's time traveler effect, there should be no qualified candidates in the Matong family today.

Unless Matou Zouken personally participates...or his life-or-death savior, Matou Kariya.

Thinking of this, Tong Shen showed a complicated expression in his eyes.

But soon, he regained his composure.

According to his observations in the past few days, Rin Tosaka of the Tosaka family, Matou Sakura's biological sister, and the girl he just secretly photographed, should not have summoned the heroic spirit yet.

Shirou Emiya, who is the protagonist of the plot, did not summon Saber either.

Therefore, according to Tong Shen's understanding of the plot, there should still be three job positions available: Saber, Archer, and possibly Rider.

"Although I came a little late, fortunately it's not too late..."

Tong Shen said secretly in his heart while taking off the broken spear head.

Summoning a heroic spirit servant to sign a contract generally requires a medium related to the preferred heroic spirit, that is, a holy relic.

In other words, the swords, armors, crests and even bone fragments that the heroic spirits once held were extremely expensive things.

Since Tong Shen wanted to participate in the Holy Grail War, he naturally prepared something similar.

The three ancient relics in front of him are the sacred relics he collected from China at a huge price.

According to the antique dealer who was a tomb robber, they are the spear heads that Yue Fei used to practice martial arts during his lifetime, the green sword that once shined in the hands of Zhao Yun, and the red rabbit horse bones that Lu Bu and Guan Yu once rode!
