Seeing his mischievous appearance on purpose, Lily felt helpless...Even in the mythology, there is no mention of the effect of eating this thing, but as a heroic spirit in Greek mythology, she knows that these things seem to be expensive. However, it did not explain the use of the treasure with a clear purpose.

That is as a sacrifice for summoning, for example, the golden sheepskin that will change one's life later can be used to summon dragons.Of course, even if I got the golden sheepskin, I couldn't summon the dragon, after all, I was too weak now.Thinking of this, the girl's heart was filled with gloom, and she smiled bitterly: "...if you use this to summon heroic spirits, maybe you can summon more useful ones."

Seeing the girl start to feel lost again, Steve couldn't help but stepped forward and touched her head, "Don't say such things! Now you are my only partner, what we have to do now is to regroup, and then Re-establish the combat strategy. The surprise attack just now was quite dangerous, but now I understand one thing, that is, as long as the opponent can't kill me with one blow, then they will lose. As long as you and I cooperate well, even that big guy Nothing to be afraid of."

"Okay! Stop rubbing, your hair is messed up! Your hands are so stiff!"

"Ah, sorry sorry."

Steve was about to withdraw his hand, but the girl grabbed his wrist and held him in her arms: "...But, it doesn't feel bad."

Steve, who had turned back into a square bearded face, smiled. Although he was not as handsome as before his transformation, he looked particularly reliable.

It is not a big deal for the location of the magic workshop to be discovered, but Lily will learn a big lesson if someone sneaks in so easily.And that's exactly what she did.Although Steve didn't explain it, she knew that it was completely her mistake this time.

For two people to cooperate, a clear division of labor is required.Relying on the fact that I understand the Holy Grail War better than the other party, I have intervened in many affairs, but I have not done my own work well. I have to say that this is really a failure.

What I can do now is to be Steve's backup, assist him and protect myself.Although she felt that she had done the right thing in the analysis, she had gone too far by actively provoking the other party. If her Master hadn't left an ultimate move, her Holy Grail War would have almost ended before it even started.

After discussing with Steve, the two decided to renovate the workshop in the next few days.According to Lily's judgment, as long as the opponent is not a heroic spirit with particularly strong attack power, Steve should be able to fight them.So at least build this place into a safe area that can be attacked and retreated.

Of course, most of the work in these workshops is done by Lily, because Steve's more important job now is to dig enough gold to make a large number of enchanted golden apples.

"In this way, the Holy Grail War is a very expensive war." Steve glanced at the enchanted golden apple in the package and the 20 marked below, and smiled helplessly.

Chapter 18 Situation

"yes."

After listening to the report from there, Tohsaka Tokichen put down his pen and made a thoughtful gesture, "Since the heroic spirits in the caster seat are weak, they don't actually pose much of a threat. The matter of being able to repel the followers, As a modern magician, it is indeed worthy of praise, but at best, it is nothing more than repelling a servant of the level of Assassin, even if you don't care about it, you will never know when you will be killed!"

As the patriarch of a magician family with a deep connection, Tohsaka Tokoto knows how important a family's influence is on a magician.From lineage to resources, from talent to financial resources.Magic is not the kind of thing that can be achieved overnight without a trace. On the contrary, magic requires a lot of accumulation.In this case, the accumulation of only one or two generations is particularly weak.

This is like comparing a nouveau riche and a consortium family, their abilities and energy are not the same.

"But they already have a certain degree of information about us, and they are also very familiar with the information from Matou's side."

The handling of intelligence work over there is also very serious, which makes Shi Chen particularly satisfied.

"It's okay," the middle-aged magician took a sip of black tea gracefully, "The fact that they will spare no effort to collect information shows their own weak mentality. Wild magicians without family traditions are no threat. Matou's side It’s just a half-baked guy, and what I’m concerned about right now is Einzbern’s side...how’s the castle in the southwest?”

The castle on the southwest side was built by the Einzbern family many years ago, and most of the time it was just deserted and neglected, but during the Holy Grail War, the castle will be reopened.Speaking of building a castle just for the 60-year ceremony, that family is indeed the most terrifying existence among the three Holy Grails... Fortunately, they are not good at fighting, but I heard that they hired a person to participate this time The Holy Grail War, I don't know if it is true or not.

"They seem to have been moved in a few days ago, but they haven't seen any servants yet."

"That is to say, it hasn't arrived yet." Thinking of the rumor, Tohsaka Toko, who felt deeply that the Einzbern family had fallen into madness, rubbed his brows: "Is there any news about the Archibald family?" ?”

"Not yet, but what is certain is that he is already in Fuyuki City."

Kenneth El-Melloy Archibald.

This name sounds a little cold to me... As a family of magicians that has continued for nine generations, he is also a talented magician with outstanding achievements, and he is also the future son-in-law of the head of the Spiritual Division of the Magic Association headquarters.This Archibald's attainment in magic is probably not even comparable to his own.The resources that can be mobilized behind it are even more unimaginable, but because of this, Tohsaka Toki also believes that he will not have much advantage in this war... Of course, Einzbern should not want the Holy Grail Just get out of the control of the three masters.

"That's it," Tohsaka Tokichen nodded, "don't startle the snake just yet."

"Yes."

The voice over there faded away, Tohsaka Tokichen glanced at the snake fossil at hand, smiled slightly, put down the cup in his hand and stood up, "Tonight, prepare for the servant's summoning!"

On the other end of the communication, the middle-aged priest quietly looked at the gramophone-style communication device, and remained silent for a long time.

……

No matter which side, they didn't take this extremely weak caster group seriously.

As for the situation within the caster group... Although Steve never blamed Lily from the beginning to the end, Lily's dignity as a witch of the Age of Gods, as a caster, or even just as a servant cannot bear the fact that she is a laggard.

Although she has accepted the fact that she can only be used as a rear support, the current situation is that she can only support Steve in terms of equipment, but not at all in other places.

On this front, there has been good news and bad news lately.

Let me tell you the good news first...the effect of Mithril equipment is better than expected.Although Lily didn't understand what the mods Steve was talking about, according to him, Mithril can make a full set of equipment, and with the blessing of enchantment, the level of enchantment can be raised to level X.

Steve was very excited when he said it, but Lily really didn't quite understand the concept of the so-called enchantment level X, so he could only believe that he knew enough about this world.

And the bad news is also very simple, that is, the demand for gold is huge...Mithril itself has a great demand for gold, but I didn't expect that "enchanted golden apple" is simply eating gold... Well, it is literally eat gold.After Steve triumphantly brought back 20 golden apples, Lily finally realized that these things consume more gold than she imagined.Therefore, he can only be asked to stop the manufacture of this luxury item, and instead finish the matter of Mithril ingots first.

Another thing about magic enhancement.

Lily remembered that besides strengthening equipment, her magic could also strengthen the human body.Although the effect is not as long-lasting as the equipment, it should be able to become combat power.But the result of the actual experiment was that no matter how he strengthened Steve, he still looked the same, and he didn't have the ability to break bricks with one punch, which made Lily very frustrated.

But despondent is despondent, Lily can only give up this direction and start from another aspect.

"Look, I've dug a lot this time!" Steve came back from the mine with gold ore. Although his digging efficiency is indeed very high now, it is still difficult for the bottomless demand for gold. It can only be said to be unsatisfactory!

Lily looked at the pile of gold ore on the table, which was enough for an ordinary family to live a stable life for a lifetime, and thought that it would soon become a pile of apples and alchemy entropy for eating, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

"Well, there are quite a lot. I guess it should be enough to make five mithril raw materials! I have already enchanted the mithril pants for you and put them over there. You can try them yourself."

"Okay!" Hearing that there was a powerful new equipment, Steve was very excited to rummage through the box.

Seeing his square legs running so fast... Lily was helpless for a while, and now she really wanted to find a reason to transform him, but it seemed that it was not very safe.

"Speaking of which, do you have any idea about what you fought before?"

What Lily heard refers to why Steve's combat power is low in the transformed state.After all, this can be regarded as a weakness. If one is attacked in a transformed state, the situation will be very passive.

In this regard, Steve, who was wearing mithril armor and mithril pants, could only shrug his shoulders: "Before the transformation, I can hit him as long as I attack when I am facing him, but after the transformation, it is very difficult, probably It’s because I’m not used to being the body of this world!”

"……All right."

That's the only way to explain it.

Although they are all human in concept, although they look not too different, his body is indeed very different from ordinary people.After suffering so many knives, being hacked and screaming without bleeding to death, I can only say that this body is really strange.

"Don't worry! So I'll just keep it like this!"

Steve himself was quite happy about this matter... In contrast, Lily was really not happy, no matter objectively or emotionally.It's just that it's not a problem to be so entangled, Lily is a little helpless.

"Speaking of which, I need some gemstones as a medium for alchemy, to see if I can increase the conversion rate of Mithril."

"Uh, but there are no minerals such as gems in this underground!"

"That's right..." Lily nodded, "So, I have to go out."

Speaking of this, Lily's mood was depressed several times, because the two battles dragged her back, even though she couldn't accept it in terms of self-esteem, but when it came time to face possible enemies, Lily couldn't restrain her depression .

"It's okay! I'm here!"

"Um……"

All I can do now is to trust the Master, although this feeling is so powerless.

After applying the transformation magic to the reluctant Steve again, the caster group is ready to go out again... This time the opponent has an omnipresent assassin, which is even more unpredictable than a berserker.So this time, Steve and the others dug another exit and went out in the dark, hoping that they would not be discovered by the other party.

However, things don't always go as smoothly as expected.

Not long after Steve and the others went out, a middle-aged priest standing on the pier and blowing the sea breeze whispered in his ear: "The caster team has discovered it."

"Where is the location?"

"It's about one kilometer north of the Fuyuki Bridge. I'm driving towards Fuyuki City. It seems that these two mice have opened the hole there again." Intuit, "Speaking of which, do you really think it is necessary to attach so much importance to them? According to that adult's judgment, it should be completely possible to ignore such a weak group."

"It is precisely because they are too weak that this kind of opponent needs to be eliminated as soon as possible," the priest said slowly. "Since there is an opportunity and if you want to fight in the end, you should first eliminate all unstable factors."

Hearing his master's judgment, Assassin sneered: "It's really worthy of being the representative of the Templar Church. No matter the strong, the old, the weak, women or children, he never relents in his actions."

The middle-aged priest didn't have the slightest mood swing because of Assassin's teasing. He glanced at the north with his emotionless eyes: "I'll take a shortcut and don't disturb them until I arrive."

Chapter 19 Why do the weak fight!

The so-called Church of the Holy Church is the arbiter of this Holy Grail War, and the representative of the Church of the Holy Church is the executioner kept by the church under the bright appearance.

The agent's duty is very simple, that is to kill.

Whether it is a vampire or a monster, a magician or an ordinary person, as long as the mission requires it, they will all be killed without asking for a reason or sympathy.Even if there are people in the church who think that raising such a group of crazy murderers is against the will of God, there are also people who think that they are a necessary evil and a sharp knife of God.

After being selected by the Holy Grail three years ago, Kotomine Kirei quit the church in the form of being dispatched, joined the Magic Association, and became a disciple of Tohsaka Toki, learning magic under him.But its real role is to help the Tohsaka family win this Holy Grail War, so as to ensure that the power of the Holy Grail will not be abused by evildoers.

As the agent of the exchange, even if there is a mountain of swords and seas of fire in front of him, he will jump off without hesitation. Kotomine Kirei gladly accepted this task, and since three years ago, he has already started to assist Tohsaka Tokito in the entire Holy Grail War. Other characters investigate.

Even for Kotomine Kirei who has an assassin, he doesn't feel that his investigations are complete.Although he did investigate the magician who might become the Master, it was inevitable that he would be very secretive in such matters, and unexpected opponents were not unacceptable.

The reason why he cares about the caster group does not lie in this, but in the Master itself.

A few days ago, there was a case of assaulting a police officer in the Metropolitan Police Department of Fuyuki City. According to the description, that person had a very strange appearance, which was what Assassin said was a square-headed and square-brained person.Then the more bizarre period happened, that is, the man stole the whole cell and walked away.Even though the Metropolitan Police Department has repeatedly stated that the person definitely escaped by digging a hole, and gave evidence that a manhole cover 200 meters away was stolen.

But the public in the media would not believe such a ridiculous explanation, and there were endless voices questioning the incompetence of the Metropolitan Police Department.

Magicians were not used to this kind of thing, so they didn't notice it at all.But Kotomine Kirei, acting as the agent, had reason to believe that the criminal who attacked the police and was caught in the Metropolitan Police Department, and dug a tunnel to escape was the Master of the caster.

If he is not only good at walking, but also able to repel assassins with his body, that person's ability is to be estimated.

The same Servant can only play as a backup, and the same Master who is good at fighting with his body, Kotomine Kirei, who knows his own abilities, has reason to believe that this person is an unstable factor.

If he is really as weak as expected, let him die here.If not, it is good to sound the alarm for future battles.

As a walker, Kotomine Kirei runs very fast even on foot, and with the help of an assassin, the target is even more difficult to fly.

After determining the opponent's course of action, Kotomine Kirei rushed directly to the calculated ambush location.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, there are no stars and no moon.

The middle-aged priest stood on the neon lights on the fourth floor of the love hotel, and the light completely covered his figure in the darkness.The target looks like a couple walking on the street, the man is handsome, the woman is cute, no matter how you look at it, they are also a pair of lovers.

But according to Assassin's description, the man didn't look like this, but he was sure he was the one he was looking for.Sharp weapons are of little use to this guy, so the priest intends to use physical skills to win.

...it's ok.

The moment he muttered silently in his heart, the priest jumped off the neon light, and the blow aimed at the opponent's chest.

A muffled sound.

Steve who was hit was like a flattened ball, crashing into the tempered glass wall of the opposite love hotel.The tremendous force caused him to shatter the tempered glass, and the shattered glass slag fell from the top like an avalanche, hitting the ground and splashing everywhere.

Lily was terrified and subconsciously wanted to save Steve.

At this moment, an arc of light flashed across the darkness, piercing the girl's back.

The sharp buzzing sound resounded through the night sky, and the arc that was drawn was blocked by an invisible barrier, and no matter how hard it was, it couldn't go any further.

"Run away!"

"Ah? Oh!"

Lily spread her hands and disappeared in an instant.

"It's a good thing she took defensive measures in advance." Steve quickly got up from the ground, took out his steel sword, and gave Kotomine Kirei a middle finger, just because he left a black hole on the ground behind him. In human form, this provocation is a bit funny.

... This person is really weird.

What Kotomine Kirei uses is Bajiquan, a set of martial arts passed down from China, originated from the legendary martial artist Li Shuwen.

According to legend, the Bajiquan that Li Shuwen is good at is originally a kind of marksmanship. He started to practice boxing with Liuhe Daqiang.One of the tricks is called "Wu Er Da", which is the so-called "Gang Fist Wu Er Da", which uses the technique of "swallowing air" to impact the opponent's nerves, causing nerve reflex confusion and cardiac arrest, which is shock to death.

Although Kotomine Kirei was not as tall as Li Shuwen, it was unbelievable that such a solid punch aimed at the chest could not kill the opponent. He even doubted whether the opponent had a heart or whether he was human.

"It hurts..." Steve held his chest and stood up straight. If he hadn't put on the Mithril armor in advance for the blow, he would have been killed directly.

"Master, are you alright!"

"It's okay!" Steve rubbed his chest, looking at the blood volume he was recovering. He ate a golden apple decisively after he fell down just now. The blood volume is recovering, so the problem is not big. "What's wrong? Don't you want to continue?" ?”

Kotomine Kirei ignored the other party's provocation, and said, "The thing you ate just now should be the thing that supported you to kill the two Assassin clones before!"

"Yeah! What? Are you scared?"

"I heard from Assassin that it is not suitable to use sharp weapons against you. But I am not helpless. The Bajiquan I have learned has never been invincible. If you can hold on to my set of rigid fists, I will It’s not impossible to let you go.”

"Hmph, come on then!"

The moment Steve spoke, Kotomine Kirei moved.Before Steve could react, he was punched hard in the stomach.This punch knocked out three blocks of blood from Steve. This is the result of the protection of X's mithril breastplate and mithril leg armor, which can reduce more than [-]% of the damage... Is this person a humanoid chariot?

Then the second punch hit Steve hard in the face, almost disfiguring that handsome face with such forceful force.

The third punch landed on the chest, and the strong chest tightness made Steve feel that the mithril breastplate was about to shatter.The fourth punch landed on the jaw, which nearly knocked Steve's head off...

...It's over, if I can't hold it anymore, I should have enchanted the thorns first...

Even though the recovery effect of the golden apple is still there, Steve's blood volume is still dropping.

The fist full of killing intent punched Steve's body, and the pain almost drowned out his vision.

...Damn it, it might as well be dead.
