Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend, the Israeli boxing champion

"Then take a look at the map. The nearest place to us is La Serre Castle in the Lorraine region, which is located southwest of where we are now. We can sneak in there, get news about Paris from the soldiers stationed there, and finally use their carriages to go to Chinon Castle in the Indre-et-Loire department of the Centre Region, and then go to Paris from there."

The route planned by Romani himself gradually appeared on the projection, starting from Champagne-Ardenne and Lorraine, going all the way to the Orleans region, and finally heading towards Paris.

"Château de Chinon...what a familiar name."

"Ah, that's the place where Jeanne d'Arc and Charles VII met for the first time, and then they started to rescue Orleans and reverse the situation! But..." Mashu patiently explained to Ritsuka, but halfway through she saw Jeanne d'Arc's expression and interrupted the conversation with Ritsuka.

The saint has a lot of thoughts at this moment.

That was where it all began. At that time, I was just an ordinary country girl in Orleans, going out with my flock of sheep in the morning and coming back before sunset, living a peaceful life.

Until that night, when three angels came.

Looking back now, if it weren't for her firm belief in revelation, an ordinary shepherdess would have gone to Chinon Castle alone to meet King Charles VII. "

How will history change?

"It's okay, Mashu, let the past be the past."

She raised her flag with golden irises printed on it and pointed it toward the fortress that was vaguely visible in her sight.

"Well then everyone, target Russell, let's go!"

Looking at the painting "The Saint Leading Chaldea" in front of him, Romani roughly understood why Joan of Arc successfully reversed the situation after taking over.

"In order to test Abraham's loyalty to God, God asked him to take his only son Isaac to a designated place and kill Isaac as a burnt offering to God."

"When Abraham was about to kill his son with a knife, an angel stopped him and said, 'Now I know that you fear God. There is a goat in the woods ahead. You can use it to 'sacrifice' God.' So Abraham caught the goat in the woods and killed it, and offered it as a burnt offering instead of his son."

"Saint, you have become the sheep of France."

La Salle Castle, as a famous tourist attraction in Lorraine in the future, brings a steady stream of income to the local government every year, but now it is still a military fortress.

"You know, when the news from Paris came out, my former boss, the previous captain of the guard, became a completely different person. He was always thinking about catching those people in the newspapers, but France is so big, how could he possibly meet them?"

During the shift change, the newly appointed captain of the guard told the group of new recruits about his own experiences.

"So what's the situation now that you've become the captain of the guard, boss?"

"Didn't I say that before? He actually encountered those rewards in the newspaper. When he heard the news, he even ignored the words "may exist" and went straight there. That's what he said before he left."

"I'll go meet him, and when I come back, we can go back to our respective hometowns and enjoy our lives!"

"He went out with a group of brothers, and I never saw the boss again."

After listening to their superiors' stories, the new soldiers felt a chill on their backs. This sudden disappearance of feeling made them feel terrified. They subconsciously ignored the possibility of defecting to Belgium because it was zero. Under the king's ban, France was now like a blockade from the outside world, with people only able to enter but not leave.

"Everyone go do your own things, and take advantage of the time now. We will go up again in the afternoon." He ended the topic and the others left.

"Let's go to town tonight. We need to blow off some steam after all the stress."

In extraordinary times, only things like this can relieve stress.

Then he was hit hard and passed out.

When he woke up, he found his hands were tied tightly. He tried to break free, but to no avail.

"Don't think about it, it's useless."

Along with these words, there was the sudden lighting up of the cellar and the appearance of several women, whose faces he couldn't be more familiar with.

Aren't these the people in the newspaper?

"Chaldea is a fair and honest place. Sir, just tell us what you know and we won't make things difficult for you."

Ritsuka leaned back in the chair, his left leg resting across his right, tapping the golden handle and waiting for his response.

PS1: I remembered something happy, I got Lao Chen as a guaranteed win.

PS2: The boy got his password back.

Chapter 17: Shuang Ge is building a Gundam model

"So, how are we supposed to get into the castle if they don't open the door?"

Somewhere outside the castle, Ritsuka and the others stood at the foot of the castle wall, at a loss as to what to do. The river channel that could be dug crookedly was nothing in front of them, but how to climb over the wall was hard to say.

"Master?"

"Think of a solution yourself first. If you really can't find a solution, leave it to me." Scathach rejected the suggestion, but did not say anything definite.

"The problem is how can we get in now?" Ritsuka kicked the wall, but the wall didn't move at all.

After all, this is not a chaotic and evil world.

"Come on, junior."

Jie Hinako was still learning the Daqin language as usual, of course this was just a superficial phenomenon. Her intuition told her that she would meet some guys here, and these people were not on the same front as them.

Unwilling to give up, Ophelia plans to walk around the outer wall, trying to find some breakthrough.

Apparently, she found it.

"Lixiang, come and take a look." She was holding a brick in her hand, which was missing nearly half of its surface area and was badly damaged.

"This is what you kicked off just now."

"Uh, this..."

Ritsuka felt that there was something wrong with the way Mashu looked at him.

"That's not what I meant. Lixiang, look here." Her finger pointed to the broken part of the brick. Unlike those bricks that had been weathered by time, this one looked more like a human-made work.

Ophelia knocked on the wall and the sound sounded crisp.

"Ritsuka, try knocking on your side."

Just like that, with almost everyone confused, Ophelia and Ritsuka were banging on the fortress wall. If no conclusion was reached in the end, this would definitely be selected for the Chaldea Confusing Behavior Awards.

A Ten Min Later

Looking at the results achieved by Ritsuka and Ophelia themselves, Romani could only admire them and be amazed - amazed at the French people's ghostly operation.

"Don't forget, there's a town not far from here. If you don't leave a door open so you can go out and enjoy the scenery, you're really mentally ill."

"It looks like a warehouse. Time to go, everyone."

La Selle Castle is a very mysterious place. You can call it a fortress, the crystal chandeliers everywhere will make you feel like you are in Versailles or Fontainebleau, but the heavy artillery on the outer wall tells you that all this is just a cover-up.

To put it in a positive way, it takes both into account. Of course, it is not without problem if you say it is a hodgepodge.

"See those soldiers sitting on the ground to rest?"

Ritsuka hid in the shade where the sun couldn't reach, and pointed to the soldiers who were chatting behind him to Mashu.

"When the one on the far left was talking, no one else moved. Even if he is not an officer, he knows the inside of the castle very well. Our target is her."

Looking at the soldiers who were dispersing in twos and threes, Ritsuka signaled Mashu to go in. Mashu lived up to expectations and knocked the unlucky guy unconscious with a shield back strike.

"Mission completed, do you need my help, Senior?"

Mashu, who was eager to continue helping Ritsuka, was rejected.

"No need, Mashu. Leave the rest to me and the Master. Go and rest."

"Master, come and help us. Take this guy to the cellar we saw on the way here."

"Master, are you going to interrogate him?"

After the two of them tied up the unfortunate child, Scathach did not approve of Ritsuka's elaborate method.

"To be honest, if it's just an interrogation, we don't have to do this. With the ability of the saint, it will be easy to get the answer we want."

"We have Jeanne this time, but what about next time?"

She fell silent suddenly, as silent as a machine gun that needs to be replaced after firing a burst of bullets.

"This time, let's try to recruit Jeanne d'Arc. If that doesn't work, we can only go back and ask Leonardo da Vinci for help."

The sergeant who woke up from his coma and saw the appearance of the woman in front of him clearly tried desperately to break free, but sadly found that he was completely unable to escape the bondage of the cross.

There is no mistake, absolutely no mistake. The woman with long black hair in front of me is the one in the newspaper!

Then correspondingly, are the other people in the newspaper also in the castle? He thought of the newspaper that might be the most sold in France, and felt helpless.

How did he get caught?

"I want to ask you a few questions, and we'll let you go once you give us the answers we want." Ritsuka changed to a more comfortable position, stroked his chin with his left hand, and began to think about related questions.

Her blue eyes, like the Mediterranean Sea, stared straight at him, but the darkness in them seemed to freeze the soul deep inside, making him feel no hope. Her shoulder-length black hair fell down along her cheeks. Even with a white headband, a few strands of hair still fell freely, revealing a bit of softness in the coldness. She was wearing a white long-sleeved stand-up collar shirt with a collar flower embroidered on the chest, a black short skirt and black thigh-high socks underneath. If it weren't for the scene, people would think she was a VIP in a salon in Paris.

This is more of a deliberate move than a temptation, and each item directly hits someone's preferences - unfortunately, that person is not there.

The sergeant glanced over, but found that he could not move away. He looked at the legs and stockings, and the words of an ancestor came to his mind.

This leg will keep me going for a year.

"Tell me how to get out of here."

Got no response.

She felt some of the gazes, which made her angry, and she decided to change her strategy.

Li Xiang left her chair and walked up to him, facing the gaze that seemed to want to eat her alive, and walked in front of him.

"Want it?"

He nodded vigorously, not hiding his desire at all, while staring at the pair of beautiful legs in black stockings.

"Then you have to pass my test first."

"What a test."

"It's nothing, just dripping water." Ritsuka brought a bucket and placed it somewhere where the water was dripping.

"I'll come back in 30 minutes, if you haven't collapsed by then..."

She walked to the door and gave the sergeant a meaningful smile.

"You can get me."

After saying that, he closed the iron door and left, leaving someone alone in the cellar listening to the sound of dripping water.

The environment in the cellar is completely different from the outside world. When Lixiang was exposed to the sunlight again, he felt like he was in another world.

"Master." Scathach appeared behind Ritsuka after she released her spirit form. "It seems like your past is also full of stories."

"Who in Chaldea doesn't have some secrets?"

She sat on the steps, feeling a little tired. Recalling how she started as a rookie Master, she walked from France to Solomon's Temple, from Chaldea to the Sea of ​​​​Wandering, and all the companions along the way left one after another. She also carried the sins of several worlds, and was no longer the ordinary high school student Fujimaru Ritsuka from Fuyuki City.

Now that we have the opportunity to go back, why not make up for those regrets?

"According to the Bible, Matthew, Jesus was crucified and resurrected on the third day. But I don't know if this guy inside can survive."

"Master, did you use magic?"

"No, it was just a little psychological suggestion. If I remember correctly, he was about to scream for help."

"How good can a guy with a head full of white liquid be?"

Ten minutes later, a cry for help came from the cellar behind him.

"Master, I'm going to harvest the fruits. Go and call Mashu and the others back to gather them. We're ready to go."

When Aku Hinako received the message, she was in the library here. She has been here since she separated from Mashu and the others.

"Well, are we ready to start? I understand."

She collected her gains and headed towards the gathering place, but when she reached the aisle, she encountered someone blocking her way.

"After being in the singularity for so long, this is the first time you encounter a Servant, right?"

"Yeah, and it seems like I'm lucky enough to have met an 'elf'." The frantic Lancer sighed sincerely. "They are all similar beings, why are there such big differences?"

"Come on, Master from Chaldea, unknown spirit, the one standing before you is the monarch of Romania, it's time to get on with it."

"Akagi Hinako, from Chaldea."

"Your companions should have met up by now, since this is a two-person battle after all. But we will all fight on our own."

"You underestimate them, Lancer." Aku Hinako threw away her original body, and the body that had been dormant for many years started to function again.

At the other side of the castle, a noble lady holding a magic wand stood in front of Matthew, Ophelia and the others.

"Good afternoon, Masters of Chaldea."
