infinite creative mode

At this moment, Matou Sakura spoke again: "There are more."

"and also?"

"Well, Uncle asked me to give this to you." Matou Sakura took out a small box from her pocket. This box was made of metal and looked like a thicker stationery box.

Steve took the slightly heavy metal box: "What's here?"

"I don't know, it's just that my uncle asked me to give it to you." After finishing speaking, Matou Sakura bowed to Steve again, didn't say another word, and left the confused Steve, Turned around and opened the door.

After entering the door, Sakura saw the crooked figure who seemed to be standing at the entrance.The little girl didn't dare to go forward, but said softly, "Grandpa, I have given the box to that person as you said."

"Hehehe, good boy, you should have a good rest tonight! You don't need to go to the insect store." After speaking, Zou Yan left tremblingly with a walking stick.

Watching grandpa leave, Matou Sakura didn't show any uneasiness, she was still so lifeless.

……

Steve, who didn't know the truth, took the box back to the cave in a daze.

...Well, although it is not a good thing to interfere with a friend's private interests, is that girl really the beautiful girl he raised in the basement?Well, you really can't judge people by their appearances!Seeing that he is such an honest person, he actually did such a thing.

Thinking of this, Steve shook his head.

In his concept, the matter of ownership is as simple as who belongs to whom, whether it is a person or an object.He doesn't have too many moral constraints, so even if the other party is really in captivity, he will not inflate his moral sense to accuse the other party, and all this is just his own guesswork.

Steve, who had no doubt that there was something suspicious in it, sat on the bed that was removed from the cell after sorting out the loot, and opened the box that Matou Sakura gave him.

The moment he opened the box, Steve jumped, because he felt that he had lost a block of blood.

"Damn it! Silverfish!"

Steve jumped up in an instant, drew out his stone sword, and slashed at these "silverfish".

There were more than 50 "silverfish" that came out of the small box, and they chased Steve around in the ground.However, it is not difficult for Steve to deal with this kind of thing. If there are more numbers, just run two more laps.

"Haha, you bastard, you actually played this prank on me, and you still want to get me!" Steve laughed, and swung his sword to kill the "fish" chasing him one by one.

After a few rounds, only a pile of "silverfish" corpses and experience balls remained on the ground.

"This silverfish's experience is so high!" After picking up the experience ball, Steve found that he had risen to level 34 in an instant, and he could enchant a piece of equipment.I usually don’t have so much experience in hunting a hundred silverfish... Oh, speaking of silverfish, it’s actually very difficult to see, how could it be possible to kill a hundred silverfish at once, and I don’t know where Kariya collected them.

At this time, Steve didn't notice that there was a "silverfish" hidden in the slit under his bed. The "silverfish" was very small and stuck to the shadow of the floor quietly.This worm is not aggressive, but it is an eye that has been hiding in the dark.

Through this eye, Matou Zouken can understand the whole situation in the cave.

But now, even he, who is deeply rooted in the Matou mansion and peeks at all of Steve's actions, can't figure out what's going on... It stands to reason that if this person is not a magician, he will definitely be directly corroded by the engraving worm ;Even if he is a magician, after being bitten by the engraving bug, he will definitely lose his ability to move immediately, but what is going on?

Don't most people feel fear when they face things like bugs for the first time?Why was the opponent able to counterattack with ease? What is a "silverfish"?Had he seen such a bug before?

Unexplainable questions filled Zouken's head, but what is certain is that if this person stays here, it will definitely be a big trouble... I am carefully preparing for the next Holy Grail War, whether or not Kariya will win this time It doesn't matter at all, but if you let this person stay here and your affairs are exposed, it will not be worth the loss.

... Kariya must drive him away.

Thinking of this, Zou Yan thought of a way... Well, yes, it's done like this.

Thinking of the excitement, Zou Yan couldn't help but murmured to himself: "Yan Ye, as a father, I'm so kind to you, if you don't thank me well, it would be really unfilial!"

Chapter 06 The main story is open!

There are two ends.

Here Steve Quan thought it was a prank, and didn't care at all that the other party might want his life at first.

But what was strange to him was that the "cysticercosis" corpses in this world would not disappear, so after cleaning the cave, he picked up the pickaxe and shovel and continued the mining operation.

There are a lot of strange things that have been mined, but there is no iron ore.

Mining itself is a relatively simple and boring thing, especially when the mine has begun to take shape, it is difficult to guarantee the exploration mood at the beginning of mining. At this time, you should think about interesting things for yourself Relieving boredom is Steve's personal habit.

But after thinking about it, Steve realized that what happened just now was wrong.

... Kariya is a lame man, and he has a crippled hand, and it is impossible for him to plan ore. How could there be such a "cysticercosis"?

...The girl looked very strange, she handed her something and then left, as if she was ordered by someone, no, she must have been ordered, and the person who ordered her was really Kariya?

...Not necessarily.

The speed of the pickaxe in his hand slowed down, and Steve realized the seriousness of the problem.

He hurriedly ran back along the mine tunnel, all the way back to his burrow, and dug up the place where the insect corpses had been cleaned up... Sure enough, the insect corpses were gone.

...Wow, it seems that the basement has a lot of secrets!

Steve felt that his adventurous spirit had begun to burn... Well, I can't dig out the iron ore anyway, so I want to see what monsters are in there.

Determined to start exploring the secrets of the basement, Steve did not go to the basement wall recklessly, but dug around the basement to determine the size and shape of the basement.

After confirming that this was only a basement with a height of about two floors, and after preparing the fastest escape route, Steve chose to dig a hole from the corner of the upper edge of the basement.

After knocking down two layers of bricks, the appearance of the basement appeared in Steve's vision... This is actually a dark cellar.

I don’t know why there are hole-shaped holes around the cellar. The cellar is a very simple structure, that is, a two-story cellar. There is a staircase leading from below to the second-floor platform. out.

I thought I would encounter a lot of bugs here, but I didn't expect there to be nothing... But the hole in the wall looks a bit suspicious.

After a little hesitation, Steve decided to pave the stairs down to ensure that he could escape as quickly as possible.

All the way down to the bottom floor, the cellar was still quiet, and there was nothing there. Steve stuck a torch on the ground to illuminate the space.

……very strange?Why is there nothing?

At this moment, he suddenly noticed a pattern on the ground...a circular pattern with blood-red textures outlined on the stone slab, which seemed to represent some magical mystery.Steve couldn't help reaching out to touch the red pattern, and then received a prompt to "get the summoning magic circle module".

……Wow!Unexpectedly, Kariya and his family were magicians.

After a brief surprise, Steve figured out one thing.That bug was definitely not a cysticercosis, but some kind of magical creature.This thing on the ground is a module for summoning a magic circle, that is to say, it may also be used to summon some kind of magical creature.

Can it be used?

Steve stretched out his hand, trying to use the summoning circle.

The moment he used it, he felt a pain in his right hand, and then... nothing happened.

Uh, no blood loss?

Steve checked his right hand and found a strange symbol - a water drop made of three red stripes.

Ok?Then the experience seems to change from level 34 to level 33.Steve, who didn't understand the situation, tried to use it again, but this time nothing happened at all.

Three times, four times, five times, six times...

After trying more than a dozen times, Steve finally understood that the module for summoning the magic circle should be missing something, so there was no way to use it.In this case, Steve looked up at the dark holes in the wall and had his own thoughts.

……

Having been tortured in the insect store before, Kariya slept until the evening before waking up.When he woke up, he remembered his agreement with that strange guy... Zou Yan must have known about it, so he deliberately kept himself from going out. I don't know what happened to that guy.

Thinking of that ridiculous square face, the corner of Kariya's mouth that hadn't been necrotic, evoked a smile.

After tonight, if I didn't win the Holy Grail War, according to Zouken's words - don't come back.That is to say, tonight is the last night in this house, although I don't like it at all, but at least say goodbye to Sakura before leaving.

Opening the door, Kariya dragged his useless leg and walked out of the corridor, just in time to see the little girl in purple walking from the opposite side.Thinking of her former smiling face turning into a doll-like lifeless face at this moment, Kariya felt his heart twisted together...something inside must have been broken...

Thinking of this, Kariya couldn't help feeling heartbroken...and hated...if it wasn't for that man, there wouldn't be such a tragedy.

But if you want to leave, at least leave with a smile!At this point in his thoughts, Kariya forcefully evoked a smile, even his hypocrisy felt embarrassed: "Sakura."

Seeing his face, the girl showed a look of astonishment, and stood still in fright from a distance.

"Did it scare you?" Kariya forced a smile.

"Hmm... your face..."

"Ah... It seems that I lost a little bit to the bugs in my body again. Uncle, it must be because my endurance is not as good as that of Sakura! Hehe..." Finally, I wanted to laugh a few times, but only a few A bitter hoarse voice...it's really not too ugly.

"Uncle Kariya, you have gradually become another person..." The girl felt the truth with a keen sense of simplicity.

Yes... I am no longer who I used to be.

For such a sensitive child, even if he lied in front of her, it seems impossible...

"Maybe so..."

"Tonight, it seems that I don't need to go to Chongzang. Grandpa said that there are more important ceremonies tonight."

"Ah... I know, so it's uncle's turn to go underground tonight."

Speaking of that consciousness, Kariya couldn't help showing a sad smile... Maybe the child caught this sad smile, and she suddenly asked in a very panicked tone: "Uncle Kariya, are you going to a far away place?"

That tone, as if he was afraid that he would be left alone in this magic cave... Sorry, Sakura, this is the only way to get you out.

"In the future, Uncle will be very busy at work because of important matters, and the time to chat with Sakura like this will gradually disappear."

"Really..." The child lowered her head, probably because she has seen through my clumsy lies, and maybe she also understands that she will be left behind...

Seeing her lonely look, Kariya couldn't help but said again: "Hey! Sakura, after uncle's work is over, let's go somewhere to play together! Call your mother and sister."

"I don't have anyone who can be called my mother and sister anymore...Grandpa said, let me act as if I never had one from the beginning..."

"Is that so..."

Kariya felt that he had nothing left to comfort the child's grief, so he shuffled forward, knelt down, and gently hugged the girl.

"Uncle?" Kariya felt the girl's small body trembling in his arms.

"Then... call Aoi, Rin, Uncle, and Sakura from the Tohsaka family to go to a place far away! Just like before, let's play together again!"

"Can I see them again?"

"Ah, we will see you again, uncle assures you."

After hearing the assurance, the girl seemed to feel a little relieved, and said "hmm" in a subtle voice.

Letting go of the girl, Kariya stood up: "Then, it's about time for Uncle to leave."

"Well, goodbye, Uncle Kariya."

The girl stood behind Kariya and watched Kariya limping away with her purple-gray, lifeless eyes. After Kariya's back completely disappeared at the corner of the corridor, the girl whispered again. Sentence: "Goodbye..."

……

The method Steve came up with was very simple. In fact, he hid in the corner of the cellar to see how Kariya used the magic circle.So he rebuilt the corner of the invasion so that he could hide in it and peek into what was going on inside.

So he lay there and waited until night fell.

Just when Steve thought that nothing would happen today and was about to wait again tomorrow, there was the sound of the door opening in the cellar.

……coming.

"Where did you go?" It was a voice Steve hadn't heard before.

"Go and say goodbye to Sakura for a while."

"yes."

...Sakura, is that the girl?What about saying goodbye?Is Kariya going away?

At this time, the strange voice sounded again: "The Holy Grail War, which is held every 60 years, is already the fourth time. Every time, the Matou family has no suitable candidate. Although I have prepared a suitable one for you Holy relic, but you have to work harder yourself."

"Ah, I know."

...Holy Grail War?What is it?What is a holy relic?Steve felt as if he knew some terrible secret.

"I've been preparing this summoning array for a long time...you memorized the spells for the summoning!"

...Judging from this tone, this person seems to be Kariya's elder!

"Ah."

"very good."

"But you need to insert two other lines of incantations."

"What do you mean?"

"It's a very simple reason, Kariya, your qualifications as a magician are lacking compared to other Masters, and this will also affect the basic abilities of the servants, so we can only strengthen them by actively choosing the job description of the servants. his ability."

"Kariya, this time you will add the attribute of berserk to the ceremony of summoning the servants. The specific mantra is these two sentences. You should remember it: However, because you blinded your eyes in chaos, you... He who is imprisoned in the cage of madness, I am the one who holds its chains."

"……understood."

...Oh yes, spells.Steve finally understood what was missing. It turned out that the summoning magic circle needed spells when it was used.So that's the case, then I just need to remember the spells they chanted when they summoned them!

Steve felt that he was so smart. He was immersed in joy, but he didn't notice that the hunched figure that made an unfamiliar voice raised his head to look at his position, intentionally or unintentionally.
