The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 219 Research
"Who is the enemy?" Emiya Kiritsugu did not answer Artoria's question, but asked back.

"Caster!" Artoria answered without hesitation.

"Where is the enemy's base?" Emiya Kiritsugu continued to ask.

Altria was silent, she didn't know where the enemy's base was.

Her heart was filled with helplessness and regret, and she felt that she was useless.

"We are completely the passive party and can only wait for the other party to contact us." Emiya Kiritsugu said calmly.

He knew that in this situation, it was useless to blindly look for the enemy.

They have to wait for the enemy to contact them before they can find a chance to rescue Alice.

"I'm sorry, I failed in my duty..." As Alice's bodyguard, Altria has an unshirkable responsibility.

"No, it was my wrong decision." Emiya Kiritsugu slowly lit the cigarette in his mouth. The flame of the lighter swayed in the breeze, just like the waves in his heart at the moment.

He lowered his eyes slightly as he looked at the flickering fire, feeling an indescribable sense of self-blame in his heart.

He is not as indifferent as he appears.

Beneath that calm exterior, his heart was like a raging ocean, filled with anxiety and worry.

[Alice, wait for me. I will definitely rescue you.]

Weiss brought Alice back to the space, which was beyond Matou Kariya's expectations.

"You didn't kill her?" Matou Kariya widened his eyes, his face full of confusion.

"She's not the Master," Weiss replied.

“???” Matou Kariya was even more confused, his eyes full of puzzlement.

He didn't understand why Wes would let Alice go, since this woman was clearly one of the enemies.

Alice was even more confused: "How do you know that you have some kind of precognitive ability?"

Even though she was captured, Alice still tried hard to get information, trying to find some clues from Wes's answers.

Weiss didn't answer her.

Alice looked around and her first impression was that it was empty.

[Is this his magic workshop or some kind of inherent barrier?]

She speculated secretly in her mind and collected as much information as possible.

"Ms. Einzbern, you don't seem to realize you're a captive. Is it because you're the vessel of the Holy Grail, so you feel safe and secure?"

Weiss's voice held a hint of sarcasm, his eyes full of amusement.

"How do you know?" Alice's voice trembled slightly, and her heart was filled with shock.

She hadn't expected that Weiss knew her identity, a secret known only to the Einzbern family.

"The Einzbern's alchemy is really amazing. They can create artificial humans." Weiss exclaimed as he examined Alice's body.

He was full of curiosity, as if he were studying a precious work of art.

"His magic power is twice that of an ordinary magician, and he is also in good health." Weiss said to himself, his voice full of surprise.

Alice resisted Wes's inspection and a blush appeared on her face.

She felt her body had been violated and was filled with anger and humiliation.

"Having normal human emotions, and ultimately being able to give birth to offspring, how did the Einzbern family do it?" Weiss's voice became increasingly high-pitched, like a child who had obtained a favorite toy.

"Kariye, the task of monitoring the others is now left to you." Weiss couldn't wait to study Alice, his voice full of eagerness.

"Me?" Matou Kariya pointed at himself in disbelief, his eyes full of surprise.

He didn't expect Weiss to entrust him with such an important task.

"Don't worry, it's very simple." Weiss pointed his index finger at Matou Kariya's forehead.

Various images appeared in Matou Kariya's mind, and he could tell that these were all scenes in Fuyuki City.

"When they find a Master or Heroic Spirit, the animals will notify you." Weiss handed Matou Kariya a button, "When you press this button, I will receive the notification."

After saying that, Weiss disappeared with Alice, leaving only Matou Kariya and Sakura staring at each other.

Weiss gently placed Alice on the laboratory table. The cold surface made Alice's body tremble slightly. Her pupils dilated sharply, and her eyes were filled with fear and anxiety.

She had a premonition of the terrible things that were about to happen, and a feeling of despair surged in her heart.

"Don't worry, I'll be gentle." Weiss's voice was low and smooth, as if he was comforting a frightened child.

However, his words sounded like the whispers of a demon to Alice, making her even more frightened.

Wes first carefully performed a full body examination on Alice. He was very careful as if he was examining a precious experimental subject.

[The body and appearance are no different from ordinary people, but the difference is the internal structure? ]

He was thinking secretly in his mind, but his hands did not stop moving at all.

A sharp scalpel quietly appeared in Wes's hand, and the cold blade flashed coldly under the light.

In Alice's horrified eyes, Weiss cut her skin without hesitation.

However, Alice felt no pain.

"Don't worry, I've blocked your pain," Weiss stared into Alice's eyes. "In return, I hope you can cooperate with me."

"Don't even think about it!" Alice refused decisively, her voice full of stubbornness and indomitable spirit.

Although she was in trouble, her faith in her heart did not waver in the slightest.

She knew that she could not surrender to the enemy and could not reveal the secrets of the Einzbern family.

"Is that so." There was no trace of surprise in Weiss's tone, as he had already anticipated Alice's reaction.

He didn't hesitate and used the power of the Mind Stone to control her.

In an instant, Alice became eager to answer every question.

However, as a created tool, she knew very little about the Einzbern's secrets.

Weiss had a look of regret on his face. He had thought he could get more information from Alice.

This experiment continued until Matou Kariya pressed the button.

Weiss stopped what he was doing and slowly walked out of the lab.

"You're finally out!"

Matou Kariya's voice was filled with anxiety and uneasiness. He quickly walked in front of Weiss with a very anxious look on his face.

"Fighting broke out at the port."

"Do you want to come with me?"

Matou Kariya seemed to be a little shaken.

However, when his eyes fell on Sakura Matou beside him, that trace of intention disappeared instantly.

"Sakura still needs my care."

He knew that at this dangerous moment, Sakura Matou needed his company and protection more than ever.

"Whatever you say." Weiss's tone was calm.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about something.

Afterwards, he adjusted his state slightly, making his body and mind more relaxed and focused.
