It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 25 I have to find a way to snatch her away

"Picked it up on the road?"

The voice became noticeably louder, and Ms. Toosaka looked unconvinced.

"Yes, I found it on the road..."

Xia Zhi nodded calmly, and he seemed to be very confident in what he said. After all, he was not wrong. Wasn't he just picking it up on the road?
Although to be honest, even he himself felt that it was a little unreal. He just thought of a desperate way to break the impasse, so he ran to Yuanzang Mountain to eat dirt at night, and as a result, he was able to get lucky?

——Who could have thought that in the middle of the night, a servant would inexplicably stagger to the foot of Mount Yuanzang and then collapse there dying?

——What is this? Is New Concept just sitting back and waiting?

He also felt it was very subtle, but after careful consideration, he decided to pick up Miss Caster from the road.

After all, there is no practical benefit in attacking this weak lady. He won't gain any experience points for upgrading, nor will she drop any treasure chests or anything. Even if he does nothing, seeing how she looks like she is dying, she will soon be destroyed naturally.

and then?
Nothing will change.

Reducing one opponent does not mean that the pressure of the Holy Grail War will be reduced. On the contrary, it may accelerate the progress of the war, making it more intense and coming to an end faster.

"You...you...you, can you please be more serious..."

Toosaka Rin on the opposite side also had a speechless expression on her face. She shifted her gaze to the side and subconsciously muttered to herself: "How is it possible to pick up a Servant casually on the road..."

However, even as she said this, across from her sight, the female magician in the dark purple robe was sitting sideways on the ground, her weak posture revealing quiet concern as she silently watched the conversation between the two.

Although the magical fluctuations emitted by the other party were almost non-existent and seemed to disappear into thin air at any time, Toosaka Rin could still accurately judge that this woman was undoubtedly a Servant.

So, this is outrageous.

Originally, she had gone to bed early due to the exhaustion of the day, but was hastily woken up by her own Servant in the middle of the night. Naturally, Toosaka Rin was very upset, but she did not expect to see such a scene -

That troublesome guy came back from fooling around outside, and even brought another woman back with him, and even wanted to bring her into his home openly...

No, no, what a mess I am thinking about!

Because she had just woken up and her mind was not very clear yet, the girl quickly shook her head vigorously and re-organized the situation in front of her. In other words, her servant went out in the evening and now brought back a new servant for her?

This, this...are all Assassins so efficient?
She didn't know how to comment for a moment. Although someone said that he would go out under the cover of night, she actually didn't have much hope in her heart. She had more of a broken jar mentality.

Yes, Assassin should indeed be positioned in that way, and the Holy Grail War should be conducted with that in mind.

But what's the use? Ms. Toosaka frankly said that she didn't really expect him to be able to do anything, let alone expect him to successfully assassinate other participating teams. She would be satisfied just by hoping that he could get some valuable information.

But now, the most ridiculous result happened.

Did this guy really go out for one night and directly assassinate a Master?
Toosaka Rin subconsciously thought so. After all, she really felt that it was unlikely to pick up a Servant casually on the street. It should be that her own Servant successfully killed the opposing Master, and persuaded the opposing Servant and brought him back.

Such an outcome seemed a little unreal, making the girl feel like she was in a dream.

It felt as if my feet were walking on cotton.

After thoroughly understanding the situation and confirming the fact again and again, Toosaka Rin's eyes suddenly lit up and her heart began to beat uncontrollably.

Killing a competitor is already a very good result, and if you can add an ally to your side while killing a competitor, that would naturally be even better!
Although I don't know how this guy convinced this Caster, but the facts are already in front of me. As long as I sign a contract with him...

By then, we will have two heroes in our hands, and it seems that we will have another chance to gain points in this season.

"Caster, I've roughly understood the situation, so..."

Taking a deep breath and suppressing her excitement, the black-haired girl with twin ponytails looked at the female magician seriously and earnestly.

"Are you willing to sign a contract with me and rejoin this war?"

"..."

"..."

Caster looked at the girl in front of her. Although in her eyes, most modern magicians were not worth commenting on. However, if she put aside her prejudice, this girl's potential was undoubtedly quite outstanding.

At least, compared to the dull Master that he had gotten rid of not long ago, this girl was clearly more than one level higher. Although she was immature, this was precisely her plasticity, and it also allowed him to control such a Master more easily...

“Of course, Master…”

With a slight smile on her lips, she gave an affirmative answer and inadvertently glanced at the young man next to her.

Of course she would agree. After all, it was a rare opportunity to be summoned. As long as she had the right to choose, she would not give up this stage easily. Otherwise, she would not agree to follow this strange Servant back.

If she really wanted to leave at this point, she only needed to do nothing, and her magic power would dissipate, and she would no longer be able to maintain her present life, and would return to the Throne of Heroes.

"Then I'll go get ready now..."

Miss Toosaka also knew that since the other party was willing to follow her Servant back, he must have such an intention, but when she really heard the other party agree, she couldn't help but feel excited.

"By the way, what's your real name?"

"Medea, the Greek witch, is happy to serve you..." The female magician in a dark purple robe opened her lips softly, her eyes focused on capturing every emotional change on the new master's face.

"Medea from Greek mythology... Great! From now on, you are my Caster!"

Toosaka Rin's eyes lit up instantly and she nodded vigorously to confirm, with such seriousness that she was almost patting her chest to make the promise.

People are always picky when they have a choice. Her current mental journey is the same, from "I must draw Saber", to "If not Saber, at least it should be the top three", and then to "As long as it's not Caster and Assassin, it's fine"...

As for now, her attitude has become very pragmatic.

Any class will do. Anyway, I already have two Heroic Spirits, which is a big advantage!
As for the opponent's reputation, she is even less afraid of it. Having experienced the blow brought by the previous servant, Miss Toosaka is now only afraid that the servant has no reputation, not that the servant has a reputation. Whether it is a bad reputation or a good reputation, it at least shows that he is a Heroic Spirit with a prominent background!

--Huh?

Medea didn't know what her new Master had been through, so she was a little surprised by the attitude shown by the girl.

She also thought that the other party would subconsciously reveal a look of fear, vigilance, and rejection after hearing her name.

After all, "The Witch of Betrayal" is not a nice name.

Carefully observing Toosaka Rin's expression and confirming that the girl was not pretending to be sincere, Medea was silent for a moment, then slowly revealed a smile, which was different from the previous one and was more sincere.

The black-haired girl with twin ponytails ran upstairs again excitedly.

At this time, Medea turned her head and looked at the young man next to her. After a moment of hesitation, she finally sighed and said, "It seems that you are right. You do have a good Master..." "I think so too..."

Xia Zhi smiled slightly, as if he was honored and said this with a bit of pride.

That's right, he eats her food, lives in her house, and uses her things, and he can even do some tricks behind her back. It's such a good thing... ahem, where can I find such a good Master?

Of course, he still has to maintain his character in front of Medea and play the role of a servant who is loyal to his master.

"Thank you for saving me... From now on, we will work together." Medea said seriously, but also a little confused, "But why were you there at that time? Were you tracking other enemies?"

"Yes, I think Yuanzang Mountain is also a good place. I suspect that someone else might choose it as a base, so I went there to investigate. As a result, I happened to see you lying there..."

The young man gave this explanation calmly without blushing or breathing heavily.

He would not easily reveal the secret of his past of eating dirt.

Medea nodded, thinking: "That is indeed a good place, it has many advantages as a magic workshop..."

If she were given the choice, she would choose to set up her base there.

Thinking of this, Caster couldn't help but look towards the living room. The mess on the floor and the big hole in the ceiling were extremely eye-catching.

After all, during the Holy Grail War, Toosaka Rin was in no mood to hire someone to clean and repair the mansion, so it was kept like this for the time being. But in Medea's eyes, this was another scene, and it was probably that a fierce battle had already taken place.

This mansion is obviously not safe, otherwise...

After the contract is signed, will I persuade the Master to move out and start over?
Anyway, "position building" is Caster's forte, and it's also the correct way to do it.

The next morning.

Toosaka Rin yawned as she stepped back into the school gate.

She still felt very sleepy and her body felt heavy. After all, carrying the magic power of two servants was not an easy task. Even though she had a good talent for magic, the burden was still a bit heavy.

This is also thanks to the fact that Medea was weakened by the previous Master.

Otherwise, the mana consumption would be even higher.

According to Medea, after her previous Master summoned her, he was afraid of her power, so he used the absolute command of the Command Spell to limit her magic power to that of a human... What a genius brain circuit.

After hearing the news, Miss Toosaka was naturally angry and conflicted.

The anger was naturally because he felt that his Caster should have had stronger abilities, but was weakened by the previous idiot using the Command Seal. It was like cutting his own flesh. It was heartbreaking to hear that...

The reason she was confused was that she suddenly felt that if the Master wasn't so stupid, her Assassin wouldn't have been so easy to kill him, and Caster wouldn't have turned against him and decisively chosen to join her...

She naturally imagined and rationalized the whole story, and Toosaka Rin didn't know whether she should scold the idiot or praise the other party's magical operation.

"Is it really necessary to come to school? Just for these few days..."

Maintaining his spiritual state, Xia Zhi put his hands behind his head and followed the Master's footsteps closely. Beside him was Medea, who was also in her spiritual state.

Now he actually just wants to act alone and then find an opportunity to eat dirt.

"I can't just stay at home and wait for you to send back the battle report. It would be great if the Holy Grail War was so easy..."

Toosaka Rin yawned and said this. Perhaps because the young man had achieved an extraordinary result last night, her attitude had changed significantly and her tone of voice had become softer.

"If we want to take action, school is actually a good place to go. After all, think about it, war must be carried out secretly, and schools with many people are actually very safe and generally will not be attacked..."

Her words stopped abruptly, her steps also stopped, and the expression on her face froze, which looked very interesting.

There was something strange about the air ahead.

Some kind of barrier quietly rose up, covering the empty campus where not many students had arrived because it was still early.

"..."

"..."

"Assassin, find a way to investigate this..." Toosaka Rin curled her lips and felt that her luck was not very good.

I knew it……

Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows, sighed, and assessed his own magical power, but still felt that it was not good enough.

Although Servants are magical creatures in a sense, the higher their own magical reserves, the stronger they will be. However, he still feels that he is at most third-rate now. After eating dirt all night, he is probably barely above the average level of the lower-level fairies in the Fairy Kingdom.

Even if it was strengthened by Medea's magic, it should not be able to fight those monsters head-on, right?
Because he had never come into contact with other servants before, Caster was not only a weakling of the sewer class not long ago, but also a servant who was weakened to the extreme by the previous Master using Command Seals. It must be that he has little reference value.

Therefore, he had no intention of underestimating those imaginary enemies, and always subconsciously imagined those enemies in a higher level.

"I can only do some investigative work. I will definitely not be able to defeat others in a head-on confrontation..." After thinking about it, Xia Zhi decisively gave the girl a shot of prevention, and decided that if he really had to fight the enemy, he would just run away.

…………

After wandering around the campus for a few rounds, Xia Zhi quickly found the location of the barrier.

Those were red and purple words blatantly carved on the roof, seemingly invisible to ordinary people, and there seemed to be many of them.

He did nothing, but marked them one by one, ready to go back and make a long-term plan. Being cautious is the basis, and you should take every opportunity you can. Acting rashly never has any good results.

It was just that when I found the last mark's landing point, something unexpected happened...

Vivian?
Looking at the girl who was on the roof of the opposite building, leaning over to examine the engravings on the roof, the familiar appearance made Xia Zhi's heart slightly shaken.

——She’s here too?

——Could it be that my situation was not an exception and she was also summoned?
Wait, who's that red-haired guy next to her?

Could it be that he was the Master who summoned Vivian in this Holy Grail War? Subconsciously, Xia Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of a way to snatch her away...
