"This biscuit is rock hard." Lu Mingfei chewed on the compressed biscuit, which was basically no different from dirt. It was a dry food she got from Sigma. It was hard to swallow if it wasn't soaked in water, but if it was soaked in water, the texture was strange and quite unpalatable. She preferred to eat it without soaking it, but it was indeed very filling.

"It's just compressed biscuits, after all; the strange texture is normal." Ayaka Sajo watched Lu Mingfei munching on the biscuits with her front teeth like a rabbit. She found the scene rather amusing. "Speaking of which, are we really being monitored by special forces?"

"Yes, they're in the woods a few hundred meters away from us, fully armed." Lu Mingfei answered Sajou Ayaka's question. With the Kamaitachi, a Word of Power that is unparalleled in its ability to detect things, she can grasp a lot of information, as well as the exact location of these people, their current movements, and their heart rate, just by listening to them.

"It's unbelievable that the United States government and magicians would conspire together; it's like something out of a science fiction movie." She turned her head to the other side.

"Yes, I was surprised too." Richard brandished his sword. "But that explains it."

"You seem to be enjoying yourself." Ayaka Sajou was a little speechless. A big boy and a little girl, who seemed a bit nonchalant, one was Richard I, the infamous butcher in history, and the other was a human-shaped natural disaster who could level a building with a wave of her hand. It's not impossible to explain it using movies.

"Really? I'm enjoying it...?"

Richard I, the Lionheart, was not only a notorious butcher but also a remarkable military genius in European history. He spent most of his life conquering and waging war. As King of England, he reigned for nearly ten years, but spent less than half a year in his own country. In addition, he could not even speak English. However, this was a historical issue, not a personal problem.

"The weather is getting worse." Lu Mingfei suddenly looked up at the sky. It was a clear, azure sky, but she thought so, as if something was hidden in the distant sky. She felt this way based on her feelings, without any other factors.

"The weather's bad? It's fine, isn't it?" Ayaka Sajou walked over to Mingfei Lu. "Did you discover something?"

Lu Mingfei has a strong sense of perception and is very sensitive to changes in her surroundings. Like a cat that has run away from home, if she feels something is wrong, she will investigate it thoroughly.

"Hmm... I can't quite explain it, it's like something's covering the sky, giving me a rather unsettling feeling, like it's raining." Lu Mingfei rubbed her chin with her fingers, speaking uncertainly. "But if you actually look at it with your eyes, you can't see anything, it's just an ordinary sky."

"Then, how about we treat the sky as one of the enemy's territories? Of course, this doesn't mean you should completely trust your feelings, Mingfei, but rather treat it as a potential hypothetical enemy to be guarded against. I would do the same." Richard walked over and gave Mingfei a thumbs up.

"Okay, let's do it this way. Speaking of which, what are we going to do next? How long is the Holy Grail War again?"

"It will probably take anywhere from a week to a month," Richard said. "However, it depends on the intensity of the war. If everyone goes all out from the start and fights fiercely, it wouldn't be surprising if the war ended in a day or two. If one faction has overwhelming combat power and intelligence advantage, the result will be the same. But as it stands now, the combat power seems to be relatively even."

"I see." Lu Mingfei nodded.

What will her fate be after the Holy Grail War ends? Will she stay here or return to her original world? That remains to be seen. At least it is confirmed that she is a Servant in some way.

"So what do we do next?" she asked.

"Let's go to the church. After all, the Holy Church is the overseer of the Holy Grail War; we might be able to get more information there," Richard suggested. "Besides, if we're too far from the center, we'll lose too much information. Even Mingfei's Noble Phantasm can't detect that far, can it?"

Richard had his own ideas. Compared to the two of them, Ayaka Sajou was too fragile. He thought that by using certain methods, he might be able to get the Church to protect her. He was confident in his ability to negotiate.

Lu Mingfei could actually do it, it was just a bit tiring. After all, the city center was too noisy, and without categorization, it was simply a form of mental pollution. If she went all out, it wouldn't be difficult for her to have the Kamaitachi cover the entire Snowfield City. The main problem was the categorization. Moreover, she had the map left by that girl, a three-dimensional model of Snowfield City, and her familiarity with the terrain and buildings was so great that she could easily mistake Snowfield City for the alleys of her hometown.

"Hmm, I think that's a good idea too. Besides, if it's in the city center, the intensity of the battle might be reduced due to the need to maintain secrecy."

"According to the information Sigma provided, that's probably impossible," Richard said with a laugh, scratching the back of his head, looking quite embarrassed. "And I myself wasn't even aware of it, hahaha."

Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered that this person had once jumped onto the roof of a fire truck and given a speech on television. Moreover, during the information exchange last night, Sigma mentioned something that seemed to be about how the battle between Enkidu and Gilgamesh's Servants directly created a crater in the desert. Snowfield City was already terrified just explaining this. The gas explosion excuse could only be used once or twice; it would be meaningless if used too often.

Not to mention the powerful arrow that seemed to have been shot by Archer, piercing through the skyscrapers. The point of light it passed through, the shattered glass of the buildings—no matter how you looked at it, this group didn't seem to have any sense of secrecy.

"It's fine with me, it's mainly up to you two to decide."

"How can that be!" Richard immediately objected. "Ayaka's opinion is also very important."

"I think so too. Ayaka's opinion is very important." Lu Mingfei hates being ignored and ostracized, so she will not become that kind of person.

"I agree. This room feels creepy."

"After all, this is where she was summoned. There are still more than a dozen corpses lying in the basement." For safety reasons, he and Mingfei turned the entire building upside down. Fortunately, the place with the blood and gore and flies was the one he was in charge of, otherwise Mingfei would have definitely vomited up all the food she had eaten.

"You don't need to specifically remind me of this!"
