Ex-Machina in Dimensional Travel

......

Now, it is noon on the second day since Xuer and his group arrived in the land of elves.

After receiving the information from his future clone, Xiuer couldn't help but feel surprised. He couldn't help but look at the white-haired elf in front of him who was flipping through the magic book.

So the direction of this world is that, from the outside, Fulilian is my apprentice?

Doubts arose in Xiuer's mind, but he did not dwell on this issue for more than a few seconds, because other people's opinions did not matter to him. Just like Volame claimed to be his apprentice, but so far, he had only talked about the master-apprentice relationship with Takson.

At this time, Xuer and his companions had arrived at the land of elves, and once again met Fulilian and a group of elves from a thousand years ago.

Yesterday, when Fulilian went out of the village to collect herbs as usual, she met Xuer and his group who had just entered the forest. Although there was a woman in the team whom she had never seen before, since she was with Xuer, she should not be a bad person.

After seeing this "friend" who had returned here not long after leaving, he happily invited the group into the village again as before. Because Xuul and Takson had been here once before, the speed of applying to enter the village this time was unexpectedly fast and was completed in just a few minutes.

This time, unlike the previous time when they just left after meeting once, when Xiuer asked her to stay overnight, Fulilian was obviously surprised and a little happy.

It was precisely because Fulilian was responsible for arranging the accommodation for Xuer and his group that the three apostles were arranged to live in the same house with Fulilian.

Although the elves' hometown is isolated from the world, the elves in this village do not live a primitive life. There are still many wooden furniture in the house.

So there was a scene where Frillian was sitting on a chair flipping through a magic book, and Shul was sitting beside her, quietly observing Frillian.

Because it was not yet break time, Takson had already gone outside to exercise, and Volame was in the elf village for the first time. He was very curious about this village inhabited only by elves, so he also went out to visit the village. Now, only Fulilian and Shuul were left in the house.

Plus, neither of them is the talkative type, so it turned out like this.

The magic book in Frillian's hand came from Shul and his group. At that time, Frillian was already interested in magic, and she usually borrowed magic books from other elves in the village. After seeing that there were a lot of magic books in the travel bag that Takson was carrying, Frillian had the idea of ​​borrowing some from Takson, and she did ask him so.

In response, Takson did not refuse and generously lent out the magic book in his backpack.

【-Opening of the Classics-Pseudo-Classics-Whispering Chapter Order-】

As a golden glow emerged, a thick book with a golden border that looked like a Bible appeared in Shul's hand.

This special effects method naturally attracted Fulilian's attention. She temporarily stopped reading the book in her hand and looked at the item in Xuer's hand curiously.

"what is this?"

Facing Fulilian's question, Xiuer simply quietly opened the proclamation and replied:

"【Answer】Grimoire."

This is not a lie, but the current Whispering Chapter is indeed equivalent to a [Magic Encyclopedia], and Shuul is indeed using the Whispering Chapter to read magic.

[Analysis progress of the Whisper Chapter...100%]

[Notice, analysis completed, data for the current world can now be queried]

Now that the analysis of the Whispering Chapter has been completed and the agreement to clone myself into someone else in the future has ended, the next step is to prepare to leave.

"【notify】......"

Xiuer sent messages directly to the [terminals] on his two apprentices, notifying them to come back here, and while waiting for them to come back, Xiuer did not just sit there and wait.

Xuer quickly flipped through the obituary in her hand, and all the information about this world was recorded in the database as she read.

Of course, this way of recording is not the most efficient. Xuer just flipped through the book as he did when he was a human. After a few seconds, Xuer stopped what he was doing and the closed book disappeared in the golden light under Fulilian's curious eyes.

[Activate plugin-whispering article order]

[Starting to record data, loading...]

The device above Shul's head, disguised as an ornament, suddenly unfolded, and streams of data streamed through his eyes, causing his golden pupils to emit a faint fluorescence. Even with the use of a fake witch to disguise himself as a human, it was impossible to completely hide certain characteristics of the Ex-Machina.

But Xuer did not hide such details. He disguised his appearance only to facilitate his actions. As a result, his pair of glowing eyes were particularly conspicuous in the room.

This change naturally attracted the attention of Frillian, who was originally looking at Xuer.

"Xuer, your eyes...what's wrong?"

Fulilian asked in surprise, looking at Xiuer's glowing eyes, her face full of disbelief.

She didn't notice any changes in magic power, which means that the current situation was not caused by some kind of magic. Then why were Xuul's eyes glowing?

So out of curiosity and concern for her friend, she asked this question. At this time, she had already come in front of Xiuer and was observing the latter's eyes.

"[Confirmed] There's nothing wrong with the machine, Fulilian, don't worry."

Fulilian was a little confused for a moment by Xiuer's nonchalant response. She could tell that Xiuer was indeed fine, so there was no need to worry. She was just curious.

"If you're alright, then you..."

"I'm back."

Volame suddenly opened the door and greeted Xuul who was inside the room. This action also interrupted Fulilian's words. At this time, Xuul had completed recording the information of this world. The glimmer in his eyes had long since disappeared, and he returned to normal.

It seems that the first one to arrive is Volame. This time, Takson is unexpectedly the second one, Xuer thought to himself.

"Welcome back."

It was Fulilian who responded to Volame's words, while Shuul was relatively indifferent.

Fulilian did not dislike this enthusiastic woman, and she could feel that this person named Volame was a powerful magician.

"What were you talking about just now?"

After opening the door, Volame discovered that Fulilian was about to ask Shul something, but was interrupted because of his behavior.

"No, it's nothing."

Fulilian shook her head slightly and denied Volame. After all, Xuul had returned to normal now. Although she was curious, Xuul didn't look like he wanted to say it, so she let it go.

After saying that, Fulilian returned to her previous position and continued to open the magic book that she had just put on her head.

In fact, Fulilian was wrong about one thing. In fact, Xuer usually had this expression, and it didn't mean anything. And if she really asked, Xuer would not hide anything.

"Teacher, do you want to hear what I've seen and heard these past two days?"

"..."

Although Xuul did not respond, Volame, who knew his character well, began to share his experiences in the elf village over the past two days. Anyway, Taksen had not arrived yet, and he was free anyway, so he decided to chat.

Time passed as Volame vividly described his experiences.

......

In the golden space...

[Anchor point placed, data recording...Fixed successfully.]

[Host, please choose the next world.]

Looking at this not-so-familiar golden space, Xiuer felt an inexplicable sense of emotion in his heart. This was the third world he had chosen to travel to.

He briefly reviewed his experiences in this world for more than ten years from the database. It can be said that this is the world where Xuer has stayed the longest so far.

"While hunting down the remaining demons, will you also pass on my deeds to future generations?"

Xuer murmured, this was the answer given by Takson when he left. Recalling what he had done in this world in the database, Xuer didn't know what to say for a moment.

How to say it, although it is somewhat different from Xuer's original arrangement, since it is the path that Takson decided on himself, Xuer will not deny the other party's idea.

Finally, Xuer recorded his experience in this world, just like the previous battle world, in the [Memorandum]. Although it was not exciting, it was also a good memory he got after traveling through time.

The system did not urge Xiuer throughout the whole process and remained silent after saying that sentence.

After dealing with everything, Xiuer focused his attention on choosing the next world...

Volume: 2.5 Extra Volumes

Volumes: Volume 3: Machinery and the Holy Grail

Chapter 1: The Third Time Traveling

"Stabilizing the dimensional channel... Stabilization complete."

"Prepare for the dimensional wall impact... Ready, initiate the impact."

As the system's voice sounded, a familiar shock wave swept across the entire space.

Feeling the sensation brought by the machine, this feeling of [travel] still makes Xiuer excited.

"The impact is over. We have passed through the dimensional wall and successfully reached the new world."

"Link confirmed, starting to check channel stability...safe."

As a series of familiar procedures proceeded, Xiuer's mood returned to the time when he had just crossed over.

"Sure enough, no matter how many times I experience it, this feeling of traveling through different worlds is always so exciting."

Finally, with the completion of the last procedure, the familiar golden [door] appeared in front of Xiuer again.

Behind the door was a whole new world, and Xuel plunged in without any hesitation.

......

----

......

"[Confused] Where is this place?"

At this moment, this question filled Xiuer's heart.

A pair of golden eyes quickly swept around, and after a brief observation of the surrounding environment, Xuer first found that he was in a forest.

Judging from the sky, it is almost midnight now. The time scale that originally matched Fulilian's world is naturally inconsistent with this world.

"Fate/Apocrypha" is abbreviated as FA (Here, Shuel does not know this abbreviation, it is just an abbreviation for the author's convenience)

The Fate series was a popular anime series in Xuer's previous life, but Xuer had never watched this series and he had never even played the game.

The only reason I knew about this work was that his classmate and good friend recommended it to me, and my understanding of it was just a vague hearing.

After all, Xuer only knows names like "Arthur" and "Golden Glitter".

Then why did Shuul choose this world?

Firstly, it was because of his friend's recommendation that Shuul was able to learn about some of the settings of Fate, among which the [Noble Phantasm] setting was one of the few elements that attracted him, and this also became the main reason why he chose this world.

Secondly, when Shuul was choosing the world, the only keyword he mentioned was "fate", because there are many Fate series and even games.

As a result, Shuul's behavior caused the system to randomly select one of the worlds from a pool like the Fate series through a lottery.

And FA is the world that was drawn after that [lottery]. This point is actually explained in the series, and it also allows Xuer to understand the system's time-travel mechanism.

It doesn't mean that you can only go to the world that the host knows, but you can go to all dimensions. Even if you just say it casually, as long as there is a world corresponding to the keyword, you can go there directly.

This is actually a very dangerous behavior. Fortunately, Xuer always acts in a planned way and avoids being sent to some dangerous world.

"Detector function is intact, detection operation has begun...Detecting"

After a preliminary visual observation, Xuer immediately began to detect the surroundings. Everything within a radius of hundreds of miles could not escape his [perception].

Then he discovered that there was an area that looked like a cemetery not far away, and there was a living individual in this cemetery.

"[Suspicious] Is there anyone else here?"

What was a person doing in a cemetery so late at night?

Originally, Xiuer would not care about such things, but the next second, some unknown energy reaction suddenly appeared near the life form.

It seems that I don't need to look at Xuer to know what that person is doing.

Holy Grail War

It is a ritual unique to this world and one of the few settings that Shul knows about.

It is a seven-day battle for the Holy Grail, which is said to be able to grant any wish.

A Servant is a famous or heroic individual from history or legend who, after death, has ascended to become a heroic spirit that transcends human existence. They are called "Heroic Spirits." They are called "Servants" after being summoned into the world by a magician, or Master, through a summoning ritual and becoming beings that can be used.

To put it bluntly, a group of super-powered people unique to this world are engaged in a cricket fight of the dead around a so-called universal wish-making machine.

However, the reason why Shuul chose this world was not because of the so-called [Universal Wishing Machine]. As mentioned earlier, his only target was the [Noble Phantasms] of these servants.

The Noble Phantasm is a Servant's ultimate weapon, a materialized miracle, and the proof of a Servant's heroism.
