Chapter 399 Confrontation
This disgusting magician's delusional pursuit is the art of immortality.

In order to perfectly realize this goal, a wishing machine called the "Holy Grail" is needed... The only thing that can support this old monster that has lived for centuries is to realize the hope of a miracle.

Maybe he used to be a magician who dedicated his life to eradicating all the evils and malignity of human beings from the world. He also realized that he could no longer realize this wish, so he decided to use magic to prolong his life.

In order to let future generations feel the will not to give up their wishes no matter how difficult it is.

However, after a long time, his soul was gradually worn out, and because of the loss of soul and the accompanying pain, his will and memory were forgotten or deteriorated.

So, he gradually reversed his means and purpose, turning into a pure villain whose goal is to pursue immortality.

"60 years is a cycle, but in this Holy Grail War, the Matou family has been clearly eliminated, and it is time to start planning for the next cycle of the Holy Grail War..."

Turning his head to look at the face of the young girl behind him, the corners of the little old man's mouth suddenly pulled up, and there was no human emotion on his face, it was simply a monster's smile.

That's right, even if you miss this war, you still have a chance of winning 60 years later.The placenta of the daughter of the Tohsaka family must be able to breed a warlock with excellent qualifications. He has great expectations for Matou Sakura, an excellent container.

However, the girl's shadow attribute does not match the water attribute of the Matou family. It is still necessary to use imprinted insects to modify the magic circuit in her body to gradually meet her needs.

"Although Uncle Kariya agreed to temporarily stop reforming you, it's a pity that he didn't live up to it, so the contract ends here..."

Matou Zouken happily let out a wet, slippery and disgusting sound from the depths of his throat, like a slimy viper.

"Then, you know, Sakura, go in by yourself!"

He slightly raised the crutch in his hand, and gave a heavy meal on the ground!
Accompanied by such a sound, a rancid, disgusting smell suddenly appeared, permeating this dark and damp space.The worm pool has been opened, and if you listen carefully, you can still hear countless tiny rustling sounds, which make your scalp tingle.

"Yes, I see, Grandpa."

The girl whose soft skin was tightly tightened by handcuffs and shackles did not have any sad or uneasy expressions on her face, she just nodded numbly and obediently, her eyes were confused and empty.

The young Sakura Matou walked towards the worm pond in front of him, the shackles and chains on his feet dragged on the ground, making the sound of metal rubbing.

Seeing the cold, empty and gloomy eyes like a doll, Matou Zouken nodded in satisfaction. Although Matou Kariya temporarily stopped the insect transformation on her before, it is obvious that the previous transformation The results are remarkable.

Children's hearts are immature.

They have no formed convictions and cannot turn lamentation into anger.Facing a cruel fate, they still cannot choose to fight with willpower.Moreover, because children have not yet fully understood human life, neither hope nor dignity has been fully developed.

Therefore, when faced with extreme situations, children are more likely than adults to close their hearts.

From Matou Zouken's point of view, the current Matou Sakura has completely given up those unnecessary hopes, which will be very beneficial for him to control her in the future, and maybe even if he doesn't lock her up, she won't run away again mind.

From this point of view, it seems that Matou Kariya's death is not without benefits.

After all, you must know that the greatest harm to others is not disappointment, but giving hope first, and then destroying this hope...

Matou Zouken let out a few cold laughter from his throat like a contented cat purring.Seeing Matou Ying walking past him, and walking towards the direction of the insect pond, he leaned on his crutches and turned around to leave the basement.

However, at this moment, he suddenly stopped and narrowed his eyes, and then the expression on his face disappeared, revealing an inhuman face of a magician——

"An outsider has touched the defense technique of the Matou family's outhouse. Such an impolite guest... is not welcome!"

There was a beast-like sharpness in his narrowed eyes, and only at this time could people truly feel that this dry and thin old man was a powerful evil magician.

It's a pity that what he faced was a more high-ranking and cunning existence.

In the next moment, in the dark and damp underground space, a shining and luxurious golden sword glow suddenly bloomed, in the line of sight that the old magician could not understand or understand at all.

Splitting his entire body headlong into two parts, the left and right parts, the swift drawing of the knife even tore the air, causing it to make a thunderous roar.

Just like that, the body of the great magician Matou Zouken, who had lived for at least hundreds of years, was smashed to pieces within the time when ordinary people's nervous reactions were unable to complete the simplest reflex.

Completely smashed to pieces!
Everything happened so fast that Matou Zouken's brain nerve cells didn't even have time to instinctively produce emotions such as horror, and waited until the world was quiet—no wonderful tactical counterattacks, bloody battles A, of course, ending.

"The plan was successful. When you touched the outer barrier, he noticed it, but as expected, he only paid attention to the outer area, so I succeeded in one blow!"

The silhouette of the young man emerged from the darkness. He waved the golden sword in his hand lightly, and then reported his results to most of the teammates who were still outside through the spiritual chain.

"But your action is a little earlier than the original scheduled time, right? Medea can't keep up with the rhythm at all. If I didn't move fast, I wouldn't be able to seize the opportunity."

As the highest-ranking Caster, he also has basic stealth skills. The combination of the two allows Mu Xiu to ignore any magician's magic workshop. No matter what defensive spells can stop him, he even cracked the possible reason The master didn't notice any clues.

If you go further, you may be able to walk into the target's temple with a big sword swaggeringly, and chop off the target's head...

"Sorry, there's something wrong with us. We didn't touch the magic formula outside the Matou mansion." Charlotte's accustomed cold voice sounded in the soul chain, "Al Thoria is here, so Lancelot is out of control."

"Saber? What does it mean she came here?"

"I don't know, but it seems that I came here specially for you. Before we had time to ask, Lancelot had already fought with her, and they are still fighting. The house outside the Matou family has been razed to the ground. It's flat."

Mu Xiu raised his eyebrows, and then asked, "Can't you control Lancelot?"

Charlotte replied: "I have contracted three Servants now, what do you think?"

One of the responsibilities of the Master is to provide the Servant with magic power, but compared with the servants, the upper limit of the magic power possessed by most humans is still too low, and the more powerful the servant, the more demanding the magic offering is. , especially the Servant of Berserker's employment agency——

If one is not careful, it is very possible for the magician to be drained of magic power and die.

But now, Charlotte has contracted three Servants including Berserker, Lancelot. This performance is simply shocking, and it can support the battle of the three Servants without too much impact.

In such a situation, who can continue to ask her to have decent control? !

Mu Xiu opened his mouth, and then sighed: "Okay, okay, then you can deal with this matter, we still have some things to deal with here, but it's enough for your captain to come in and start searching."

The communication in the soul chain belongs to the direct communication of spiritual ideas, so the speed is extremely fast. When Mu Xiu ended the contact with Charlotte, the outside world had not passed a few seconds.

Matou Ying, who was walking towards the worm pond, stopped, her confused and empty eyes suddenly focused on Mu Xiu who was approaching her.

It seemed as if he had no idea what had just happened.

"Medea, the rest is up to you." Mu Xiu passed the little girl directly, walked quickly to the edge of the worm pond, and raised the golden sword in his hand high.

Even if it is not a divine target, and as a treasure, it is far inferior to the power held by the main body, but the golden sword light transformed by Yanling is still the crystallization of miracles.Its power cannot be resisted by ordinary people, let alone insects.

A sword swung down, leaving nothing behind, and the engraved worms that filled the pool were wiped out without even having time to struggle.

Elegant and calm footsteps sounded, approaching the basement, and soon another woman in a dark purple robe and hood, with only her white chin exposed, came out of the darkness.

"Is this the little girl?"

Medea asked softly, she looked around, and then seemed to be a little disgusted with the environment here, even though Mu Xiu had cleaned up all the bugs around her, her magic attainments could still allow her to judge through the residual breath. Find out what the hell that is.

"Yes, please." After confirming that no bugs escaped, Mu Xiu turned around and nodded.

The witch nodded slightly, and then slowly walked in front of Sakura Matou with a blank and confused expression. After bending down to look at the girl carefully for a while, she let out a soft laugh.

The next moment, the robe fluttered, and her arms were raised high!
With a flash of cold light, a sharp dagger has accurately stabbed Matou Sakura's heart!

The Talisman of Ten Thousand Commandments, as a weapon, has the same performance as nothing, but it can "break" all the magic of the target pierced by the blade.Whether it is a magic contract based on magic power, or a life form born with the help of magic power.

Unfortunately, imprinted worms belong to the latter category.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!"

It was not Matou Sakura who uttered the despairing cry, but Matou Zouken, who was supposed to be dead.

Wisps of blue-black smoke emerged from the trembling girl's body surface. Because of the power of the Amulet of All Rings, the engraved worms were being wiped out in chains and restored to pure magic power.

Jiantong Zouyan's screams became weaker and weaker, and after a second or two, they could no longer be heard.

"Sure enough, it's the Three Caves of the Cunning Rabbit, who actually left a hand in someone else's heart..."

Medea took back her treasure in a leisurely manner, but Mu Xiu laughed mockingly.He easily caught Loli who was about to fall limply to the ground after fainting, and then he held her under his arm and walked towards the ground.

"It's ok, but just to be on the safe side, let the Master use a mental power scan to check again!"

……

……

The periphery of Matou's mansion has been razed, and a devastated battlefield appeared among the lush greenery.

The fight between Lancelot and Arturia was over. The moment their bodies intersected, they stopped moving. The latter's holy sword pierced through his black armor at the moment the former suddenly stopped. Already divided.

Arturia didn't know why the other party stopped suddenly at the most thrilling moment, but she still instinctively seized that moment.

She could clearly feel Berserker's fading heartbeat with her hand, and she was ashamed of her shallow greed, and she couldn't help crying.

Tears fell on the trembling gauntlets, mingling with Berserker's blood as it slid down the blade.

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

Amid the sobs, Wang's knees limply fell to the ground.

"Even so, I shall have the Holy Grail. . . If not, my friend. . . . If I do not, I shall not be able to make you up to anything at all."
