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

Chapter 366: Summon Ishtar (white hair and red pupils portrait unlocked)
"..."

"..."

For a moment, Miss Toosaka's eyes flashed with a trance, and she couldn't look away.

She stared at the magic circle drawn on the floor. It was mysterious and complex, yet as precise as a pattern displayed on a computer.

Very accurate, without any error.

It's as if every line was carefully measured with a ruler when drawing.

The black-haired girl with twin ponytails was naturally familiar with this magic circle.

After all, in the past few years, she has been familiar with and mastering this part of knowledge all the time, and every detail is deeply imprinted in her mind.

Moreover, just over a month ago, she had put this magic circle into practice with her own hands.

——A magic circle that summons heroic spirits.

——The crystallization of wisdom of the séance ritual embodies the efforts and explorations of countless generations of magicians.

Although that happened not too long ago, at this moment, Rin inexplicably felt as if he was in another world.

It seemed as if that happened a long, long time ago, and time became blurry and distant at this moment.

"……elder sister?"

Until Sakura's questioning voice sounded in my ears.

She let out a breath, calmed herself, and tried to bring her thoughts back to reality.

"Is the summoning about to begin?"

Miss Toosaka felt a sense of anticipation, and at the same time, she seemed to suddenly remember something: "Should I go get the scabbard?"

"No, let's be direct..." Xia Zhi shook his head calmly, indicating that there was no need for a scabbard.

Speaking of this, he also felt a little emotional.

At that time, there was no way to take the entity away, so we could only leave the scabbard of the holy sword behind.

And at that time, I also hoped that Miss Toosaka would summon again when the conditions were right, and draw cards precisely for Altria...

It is hoped that in this way, Altria can take on the role of a "transit station" and indirectly anchor this parallel world line.

——Even a cunning rabbit has three burrows.

——At that time, he mainly wanted to leave a way out for the Fairy Kingdom.

No matter whether it works or not, realistic or not, it is always a convenient arrangement. Anyway, it is best if it can be useful, but there is no loss if it doesn't work.

Because he was about to be expelled by the world's corrective power, and he really couldn't take away any physical things, so he could only leave the scabbard behind.

But now think about it carefully -

This hastily arranged plan is indeed not very feasible.

Because at that time, the special nature of Altria was not taken into consideration...Strictly speaking, the queen girl was still alive.

They are living people, not real heroic spirits.

Even though he only had his last breath left.

Nor will it change the objective fact that her time was frozen at the last moment of her life and she never crossed the boundary of death.

Therefore, the contract of restraining force has not ended yet. Artoria participates in the Holy Grail War as a living person. She cannot transform into a spirit and is also subject to certain restrictions.

Unlike other summoned Servants, those are all clones of Heroic Spirits that have come into the world.

The Artoria in this world is truly active in her original form.

Since she had been summoned to the fairy kingdom, she naturally could not appear here again.

Cough cough--

Although this statement sounds a bit like the cow mentioned earlier, it is indeed true.

It's not because of some divine characteristics or something like that, so it's magical...

Instead, they formed a contract with the Alaya-vijnana, and were tightly bound by that vicious miracle to the trajectory of their fate.

That's basically it.

"Eh? No catalyst is needed for summoning?" Miss Toosaka was a little surprised, but still walked to the front of the magic circle.

Ying followed behind her and curiously stuck her head out to look at the array pattern on the floor.

——Summoning a Heroic Spirit…

——That’s great, but it’s a pity that I didn’t participate in the Holy Grail War before…

——Otherwise, I would like to see what kind of heroic spirit I can summon...

"No, we are not going to summon Saber this time. We don't need the scabbard of the holy sword as a catalyst. On the contrary, it will easily disrupt the cause and effect of the summoning..."

Xia Zhi coughed lightly.

“It’s not Saber…”

Hearing this, Lin's expression was a little surprised at first, but it was quickly replaced by disappointment.

After all, some deep-rooted ideas cannot be changed in a short period of time.

Even though there was no need to fight for the Holy Grail anymore, and summoning Heroic Spirits was not for fighting with other Masters, she still subconsciously felt that -

Saber.

The Sword Knight is the strongest class.

Well, it is inevitable that other servants are a little lacking in flavor... at least, that's what she has always believed in her heart.

Xia Zhi also knew her obsession with this and couldn't help but laugh: "There is a reason for this. Besides, it's not suitable to summon Altria now. She has things to do..."

That's right.

As the currently indispensable regent of the Fairy Kingdom, Altria cannot leave easily.

Especially with the development of the main world, the dead planets gradually revived, the accelerated evolution of time, and the catfish effect brought by the travelers...

Many ancient continents and unique civilizations are rising up like sleeping giants awakened by the spring breeze...

Now the outside world over there is also getting lively...

It seems like a "border area" where a broken war is taking place...

In this turbulent time, the role of the Fairy Kingdom is also quietly changing. As the regent, Artoria has more and more things to consider.

If someone else were to do the job, they might not be able to do it well.

Xia Zhi was not planning to transfer such an easy-to-use Saber here. His small goal of making the Tohsaka family great again did not require such a high configuration.

Her value should be used in more critical places rather than being squandered here.

"But it doesn't matter. The one we are going to summon now is Archer, who is also one of the top three riders..."

"And you might find her identity a little surprising. You can look forward to it. Maybe there will be a small surprise..." Noticing that Miss Toosaka seemed to be unmotivated, he thought for a moment and decided to reveal a small amount of information.

This is an announcement about the limited pool that will be opened next.

--she?

This was the first thing Ms. Toosaka noticed.

Then, she keenly noticed more information: "Why do you sound like you know Saber very well and know that Saber has something to do?"

"After all, a long time has passed for me..."

The young man answered in a relaxed tone without even blinking.

“It’s not like I haven’t done anything in these years.”

"Really..." Miss Toosaka narrowed her eyes. This didn't sound like good news.

"Okay, let's get ready..."

Xia Zhi waved his hand, then looked at the girl's expression: "How is your condition? Do you need to adjust?"

"It should be okay..." Miss Toosaka felt it. Even though she had classes all day, she didn't have any other activities, so she wasn't that tired.

"Do you want me to help you replenish your magic?" he asked.

"..."

"..."

The air suddenly felt a little quiet.

The girl reacted and took two steps back, revealing an expression that was a subtle mixture of vigilance and disgust.

"Are you a pervert?"

——It’s so, so unclean!
——How can you say such things in public, and Sakura is still here!

Miss Toosaka subconsciously glanced to the side, wanting to see her sister's reaction.

"What are you thinking about..."

Xia Zhi didn't take such accusations seriously. He stretched out his hand and gently moved it to the side, and a sparkling gem flew into his hand.

"Just draw the magic power directly from it."

"Eh? Is, is that so..." Rin's expression suddenly became at a loss.

"if not?"

The young man asked back expressionlessly, but his eyes seemed to carry a hint of evil teasing and mockery: "What do you think it is?"

"..."

"..."

"……nothing……"

Lin lowered his head in a depressed manner and responded with gritted teeth, "This guy is so abominable, he did it on purpose!"
"Be ready and stand in front..."

Xia Zhi said nonchalantly: "After all, if I want to sign a Heroic Spirit Contract with you, then I must open your circuits, which will consume a lot of your magic power anyway..."

"understood……"

Ms. Toosaka tightly clenched the gem in her hand and replied in a muffled voice.

She gave Ying a look, then adjusted herself, took a deep breath, and took two steps forward.

Standing in front of the magic circle.

"No need for spells, just keep your magic connected--"

After confirming that the girl was ready, Xia Zhi silently activated the magic circle and gave her a reminder.

Because he noticed that Rin seemed to be about to speak out of habit, as if she was about to chant a spell.

Lin opened his mouth slightly, but when he heard this, he closed it tightly again. He just felt very uncomfortable. He didn't even need to chant the spell to summon the Heroic Spirit...

I always feel there is a lack of ceremony.

It's like there's no special effect when drawing a card, and even if it's shipped, it seems to be defective.

only--

The magic circle still lit up as expected, and along with the blowing of the magical wind, it also stirred up a whirring air current in the room.

The wind and lightning were so strong that even Sakura, who was watching from the side, couldn't help but take a few steps back, feeling that she couldn't open her eyes because of the wind.

In the strong wind pressure, the summoning pattern shines brightly.

A slender silhouette emerged from the dazzling light.

Then--

A stern question was raised.

"Answer me, are you the one who called me?"

Miss Toosaka suppressed a very uncomfortable feeling and tried her best to look, only to see the outline of a figure emerging in the dazzling light.

The transparent silver hair seemed to be blowing in the wind, and the bright red eyes were shining brightly against the snow-white skin.

That overly regular face looks like a doll's face.

so beautiful!
This was Lin's first subconscious thought, and then he felt vaguely familiar with it, or a sense of déjà vu.

This feels like an artificial product...

Why is it like... well, like Illya's situation? Is it a cyborg?

Wait, snow-like silver hair, ruby-like gorgeous eyes, these are almost iconic features, they really look like the Einzbern's androids!
Is this the unexpected surprise he mentioned?

Subconsciously feeling a little puzzled, Miss Toosaka looked at someone next to her, and was surprised to find that the other person was also frowning, as if he didn't quite understand.

Maintaining his acting skills on the surface, Xia Zhi also took a quick look.

The inner core is indeed Ishtar.

But the appearance was totally incompatible with the familiar impression he had.

certainly--

This is not to say that it is unacceptable, but rather that it is even more admirable. The appearance of this white-haired and red-eyed creature…

Yes, that’s right, it’s very fresh!

While praising this, he pretended to be equally puzzled and secretly made fine adjustments to the magic circle used for teleportation.

Keep calling!

This time, I want to summon the goddess I know!
