You are really good at hiding yourself! Matou Zouken! [You eliminated Matou Zouken and gained 328 experience points. You recovered from the mall and gained 1586 source crystals.] [Completed the challenge of the powerful enemy, Matou Zouken, and received the reward of Matou Family Magic Seal (Epic) (Incomplete), Ex1000 points, Source Crystal 1200 points, and Talent Points 10 points.] [Matou Zouken has been added to the powerful enemy challenge summon list. 】 Victor listened to the system notification indifferently. In fact, after so many days of daily tasks and clearing out some enemies from time to time, his experience had accumulated enough to reach level 13. The source crystal also broke through the 10,000 mark, which meant that his card drawing had finally reached a small guaranteed level. Victor thought about it and decided not to upgrade in a hurry, because the main improvement brought by the upgrade was actually the attributes. But now he is controlling a puppet with fixed attributes, so upgrading it is of no use. There are only two talent points at level one, which is too few.
Use three talent points to re-light the last trait of the [Weakness Detection] path: increased damage to humanoid creatures. After [Weakness Detection] was successfully activated, Victor then invested all his other talent points into the path of [Elite Template]. After doing all this, the sacred light in the air had already gradually turned into dust and dissipated. Jiuyuan Temple Yuju looked at this scene indifferently, lowered his eyes to look at Victor, silently dispersed the magic of vigilance and said: "Is he dead?" "If he can survive this level of destruction, then he really deserves to continue living." Victor shook his head tiredly, sneered, and suddenly looked at the maid who had fallen to the ground and was getting weaker and weaker: "Can you treat her? Youzhu." "no need." "That's right." Victor sighed. As an ordinary person who witnessed the entire mysterious battle and experienced life and death, there was no reason for him to survive the follow-up dealings of the magic world. Even if Victor and the others saved her, the subsequent personnel from the Magic Association and the Church would make "her" disappear completely in order to cover up the mystery, because the things experienced when approaching death would be firmly imprinted in the depths of a person's soul, and this kind of memory could not be covered up by ordinary hints. "But." Victor looked at the child who had been abandoned by the maid and was crawling towards others because of fear, and said softly, "This guy deserves to live." "As an orphan of the Matou family and a descendant of a magician." A three-year-old child cannot even walk, let alone remember things. The fact that the Matou family concealed Matou Shinji's magical talent means that the Clock Tower is not aware of it. As long as no one accuses or raises this point, the Clock Tower naturally won't care, let alone take the initiative to investigate the qualifications of a Far Eastern magic family. "The three great families have reserved seats in every Holy Grail War." Victor stood up and allowed himself to draw as much magic power as possible from the Great Source. Although the puppet gave him a formal identity, he also lost his greatest support as a Dead Apostle, such as the ability to absorb blood and return to magic. "So, let's just let the Matou family continue to exist for the time being." Victor took out the magic seal rewarded by the system. It was a deep blue crystal that looked like a fluid, with densely packed and complicated spells engraved on it. "The one you extracted was the last magic seal, not the first one?" "What a pity. Although the essence of the Matou family's magic seal is still the control of familiars, it has already merged with the seal bug and turned into something else." "In the future, it may all be related to insects. At least for me, it is not worth studying." He stared at it for a while, and finally handed it to Youzhu beside him.
"In that case, just use it as a bargaining chip." “Although it is incomplete, it is enough for Matou Kariya to inherit the family line and obtain the qualification to participate in the Holy Grail War.” "Yuzu, I need you to help me make a deal with Matou Kariya." "As for whether he wants to start all over again and accumulate mysteries after inheriting the family line, or whether he will resolutely recover the branches from the corpses of other seal bugs to completely restore the magic seal of Matou Zouken, it doesn't matter. As long as he is willing to give me the seat to participate in the Holy Grail War in five years, then we are willing to recognize... the new Matou family." Kuonji Yuju nodded lightly, and then saw Victor stand up and prepare to leave in another direction. "You're not going to show up?" "Well, let's keep Tohsaka Tokiomi's side a secret for now." Victor chuckled and said, "After all, it's you who is closely related to Archelot, so it's better for you to be the one to take charge of the Clock Tower." …… Just as the two were discussing leaving, outside the Matou family residence, Tohsaka Tokiomi and Kotomine Ri were standing silently outside the gate, looking at the thick white fog with worry in their hearts. Kotomine Risei was fine, still wearing his usual fatherly smile, but Tōsaka Tokiomi was looking worried, with a completely gloomy expression. The people in the Clock Tower took action without notifying him at all. What does this mean? Don't take him seriously? But the other party specially sent a familiar to deliver a visiting letter. Judging from the other party's tone, it seems that the other party is like him, a very traditional magician, and the words and sentences are very formal. In this case, there seems to be only one reason, that is... this matter is also related to their Tohsaka family. It can be related to both the Tōsaka family and the Matou family. Could it be that... the Holy Grail has been exposed? That shouldn't be the case. Even though the Holy Grail War has become a mess now, it was witnessed by that person in the beginning, and it was a fact that the Magic Association had acknowledged. Feeling anxious, the two waited outside the door for nearly half an hour. During this half an hour, Yanfeng Lizheng was even very diligent in giving hints to his subordinates around him to prevent any ordinary people from suddenly going up the mountain at this time. Finally, as the fog dissipated a little, a slender figure slowly walked out, with a black skirt and a black velvet hat. It was the legendary cold-blooded last bird, the fairy tale witch Jiuyuanji. "Sorry for the long wait, Master Toosaka." Kuonji Yuzu went out and was not surprised when she saw the two people. After all, both Victor and she left familiars outside. "And...Father, Your Excellency." "Sir Alice, this is..." After all, Tohsaka Tokiomi had "exchanged" with Kuonji Arizuma. Seeing that the other party did not seem to have any intention of settling accounts with others, he quickly adjusted his mentality and leaned forward slightly to salute. His eyes drifted to the child in the witch's arms, and he asked hesitantly: "Master Matou...how is it?" "Dead." Jiuyuansi Youzhu said lightly. "Dead...dead?" Tohsaka Tokiomi was stunned for a moment, and then he heard the other party's voice: "To be precise, he was sealed and designated. Master Tohsaka, I will pay you a visit for the main matter and record the mysterious leak in Fuyuki City. We can talk about it then." Seal designation? Mysterious leak? No, what the hell is going on here, how come I didn't know about a mysterious leak in Fuyuki City?! Toosaka Tokiomi was a little confused, but he couldn't show it. After all, if a mysterious leak really happened in Fuyuki City, it would be his dereliction of duty. He glanced at Kotomine Risei who was squinting beside him and sighed. He had originally called him here to jointly exert pressure, and secondly because he was afraid that the matter might be related to the Holy Grail, so having him come would be an extra safeguard. But from what Kuonji Yuju said, it was obvious that it was inconvenient to talk about the issue concerning the clock tower because there were outsiders around... It felt like he was tying himself up in knots. "Sir Alice." At this moment, Kotomine Li turned her head with half-closed eyes and said with a smile: "I can feel the breath of the Lord. May I ask where the agent who acted with you went?" "I don't know."
"Not sure?" Yan Fengli opened his eyes slightly: "How can I not know?" "He and I are not in the same business, we just share the same goal." Kuonji Yuju replied calmly, "After Matou Zouken died, he disappeared." "As for me, I'm not interested in what the church wants to do." So complicated. Kuonji Yuzu felt somewhat dissatisfied, and she suddenly realized that the reason why he didn't want to meet Toosaka Tokiomi was because Victor found it too troublesome to explain why he, a magician, could perform a baptism chant of that scale, so he simply avoided the people from the church. Or... Jiuonji Youzhu keenly thought of the "holy book" in Victor's hand and seemed to understand something. Ah...but in general... It turned out that she was not suitable for this kind of finishing work... I really wanted to ignore it and go back to make a cup of black tea. Thinking of this, Jiuyuansi Youzhu simply ignored everyone, walked straight past the two of them, and was stunned again. She looked at the child in her arms, feeling a little conflicted. She really couldn't understand why Victor kept the child. Not to mention the trouble, the most important thing was that this was the child of his enemy. To inherit the Matou family, isn't it enough to just have Matou Kariya? I'm afraid that Kuonji Yuzu will never understand Victor's low-level evil taste. For example, he wants to see if Matou Shinji, who was raised by Matou Kariya, will become... Partners of justice or something like that. "If you have no questions, could you please do me a favor, Master Tousaka?" Kuonji Yuju decided not to dwell on Victor's thoughts, but to follow her heart and get rid of the child as soon as possible: "Can you please help me find the second son of the Matou family and let him come home?" "Go... home?" Toosaka Tokiomi asked in disbelief, looking at the house behind the witch, which had turned into ruins and was filled with the smell of blood. What kind of family does he have?! 117, beep, draw a card! and "Announce!" Hearing Tōsaka Tokiomi's surprise and shock. Kuonji Yuzu nodded as a matter of course, and then looked at the other party quietly - she did not have the habit of repeating questions and answers. "Okay... okay." Toosaka Tokiomi broke out in a cold sweat as he was stared at by the other party's black pearl-like eyes. After taking a few deep breaths, he opened his mouth but couldn't ask anything. The witch had already said that she would visit her later to learn everything about the incident, so it was obviously inappropriate for him to ask at this time. Although he knew that he and Kotomine Risei were almost like brothers in law, this kind of thing obviously could not be said openly. Helplessly, he could only give Kotomine Risei an apologetic look and said, "In that case, I will not bother you, Master Alice. I will inform Matou Kariya to come back as soon as possible... uh, come back." …… Toosaka Tokiomi was very efficient in his work. In other words, when he saw the witch standing quietly in front of the door of the Matou mansion before leaving, as if she was waiting for Matou Kariya, he immediately released all his familiars and found Matou Kariya within five minutes. Although Matou Kariya severed ties with the Matou family and moved out, in order to silently protect Zenjo Aoi, he did not move out of Fuyuki City, but moved to the direction of Shinto, far away from Miyama Town. He was also very sensitive to the familiars of the Toosaka family. When he found out that it was Toosaka Tokiomi, he was slightly stunned, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided to go back.
On the other side, Victor had returned to the basement of Ryudo Temple and saw the naughty kid sleeping soundly next to him. "Have you finished the reinforcement? Just go to sleep!" Victor went over and kicked it twice without hesitation. After watching Beowulf rub his eyes sleepily, he turned his gaze towards the mountain that was already filled with magic. He nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad." "Huh?" Beowulf was stunned for a moment. Good, good, why did you kick me? "Although the mountain has been reinforced, in order to prevent the energy dissipation caused by the disappearance of the barrier and cause impact, I still suggest that you set up another layer of barrier." Beowulf yawned and said in a bored tone. "good idea." Victor, who was holding the gem, was slightly stunned and nodded. It turned out that three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. Even Beowulf can give himself advice. It turns out that there will always be omissions when a person thinks alone. While sighing, Victor accepted the suggestion and began to use his own barrier to cover Tousaka Nagato's spiritual vein barrier. The layout of the defensive barrier was not complicated, and he quickly completed it. Then he threw the six gems into the barrier in front of him without hesitation. At that moment, the earth shook and the mountains trembled. The six gems linked to each other, forming a hexagonal decomposition array, and began to roughly isolate the surrounding magic power. "What the hell..." Victor was caught off guard and sat down on the ground. He saw the barrier in front of him slowly unfold and dissipate, and finally the original appearance of the Holy Grail emerged. Oh wow...the Saint of Winter. Victor's pupils shrank, and although he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but take a breath. I originally thought that the old man's final sighting of Justisa was some kind of hallucination or a flash of light. Finally, you are serious! The most basic system of the Holy Grail was actually the body of Justisa - on the base filled with surging magic power, the Heavenly Grail formed by the Holy Maiden of Winter was emitting a noble light. However, behind those lights, countless engravings and spells are connected to the base of the Holy Grail like a dense spider web. Victor narrowed his eyes, waved his hand cautiously, and confirmed that the Holy Grail in front of him did not react at all - the Holy Grail had now completely lost its consciousness as Justisia, and had fallen into a deep sleep as a mere foundation for the Holy Grail War. "I feel like my plan is halfway to failure." Victor took a breath and murmured softly, "It's easy to take away just one Yustisa, but I guess there's no way to replicate the remaining spells even if I have the beads, right?" "Or... learn about the Thousand Worlds Tree? Then take away the entire Holy Grail?" "But how do I summon Saber? Summon him here?" [Ding, the wonder, Heaven's Cup, has been detected. ] 【Extra bonus has been activated.】
"Hmm? The bonus is already activated?" Victor had thought he needed to do something, like connect his ritual to the Greater Holy Grail or something. "Ah, that's fine." Victor smiled softly, and clicked on the card drawing page eagerly. He has to draw cards, not to mention that the Holy Grail bonus gives him extra equipment, one in each formation column. Currently, he only has Kyle and Stuart, and there is no way to fill it up. What's more, he still has more than ten thousand source crystals!
