"No, we have reasons to comply."

"What is it?" The old mercenary looked deeply at Fiore, as if trying to see through her thoughts through the sunglasses.

Fiore didn't seem to care, and looked at her without fear.

"[Reservedness] as a Master!

Now that a contract has been signed with the hero in the epic, at least the scale and belief that can match it must be shown.

If innocent ordinary people are involved, it will only rust the hero's sword, right? "

"……I see."

Lion Jie was silent for a moment, and then said: "You are different from what you look like, you are a much stronger person than what is shown in the information."

Chapter 416: The Gold of the Night

"...Ah, otherwise, it is also possible for our Thousand Worlds Tree to hire Mr. Lion Jie."

"Hahaha, you are joking. I have already accepted this task, and I will naturally complete it well. Besides, I have already paid the salary in advance. As a mercenary, I have to talk about my credibility."

"That's a pity. If we can cooperate with Mr. Lion Jie, our victory will be unshakable."

"I have no choice but to say sorry, Miss Fiore."

——The two masters chatted unexpectedly, at least on the surface.

The atmosphere is not like two camps that are hostile to each other, but rather like an elder and a junior chatting about family affairs. Although the elder's face is really a bit unpleasant, Fiore has a picturesque smile and looks very harmonious.

However, as long as you listen carefully, you will find that these two people are just testing each other and perfunctory.

The intelligence information mentioned from the beginning to the end is only the name and identity of the other party, and almost no substantive topics are discussed.

As an old fritter, Lion Jie didn't let Fiore get any useful information, and in the end he tried to win him over and was gently led.

It seems that although this man looks vicious, his reputation and work ethic are impeccable, which makes the brown-haired girl a little disappointed.

Thousand Boundary Tree is not short of money. If Lion Jie is the kind of mercenary who only lives for profit, Black's combat power can increase again. Unfortunately, he is not...

Lion Jie seemed to be a little smug and smiled, then he stood up, took out a few banknotes and put them on the table.

"Let's stop talking here today, so I won't disturb your leisure time with the servants...Hey, Saber should go!"

"Ah, I see, what's the rush, really!"

The Scarlet Swordsman followed obediently, but gave Jiang Liu a glare before leaving.

Jiang Liu felt baffled, not knowing where he offended the rebellious knight.

As a result, Mordred twisted the corner of his mouth, and said unhappily: "You are obviously an Archer, and your Master is so close to me, but you are not nervous at all, it seems that you are very confident in yourself? "

It turned out that he felt that he was underestimated—Jiang Liu laughed for a while.

"Although I'm an Archer, I also know a thing or two about close combat."

"Hey... alright, if you have a chance in the future, I will try two tricks, so that you can experience the difference between [Archer] and [Saber]!"

Without refuting Mordred's words, Jiang Liu watched him go away with a smile on his face, calm in his heart.

"Oh, I am impressed, Master."

Jiang Liu turned to look down at his master: "I thought you were not good at negotiating with people."

"I'm really not good at it... Sigh, I'm so nervous."

Fiore breathed a long sigh of relief: "Not only must you pay attention to the other person's expression, but you must also analyze the hidden meaning in his words, and make sure you don't slip up—this is simply a punishment."

Perhaps the pressure was really great, and there was even a thin layer of sweat on Fiore's forehead.

Of course, it could also be simply because of her poor physical strength.

"Fortunately, it's over. If I continue talking, I probably won't be able to hold on."

"But we didn't get any useful information. The other party is much more skilled than you."

"...Well, don't worry about it, let's take it easy today, let's put these things aside first."

Fiore completely relaxed, and leaned against the back of the chair as if she had no bones.

"The rest is up to you, Archer."

"Happy to help, ma'am." Jiang Liu asked with a faint smile, "Where are we going next?"

In the era after the Industrial Revolution, this small town is one of the few places that still retains its old scenery, and it can be regarded as a small famous tourist attraction. There are many places worth seeing.

With the most outstanding guarding knights, Fiore seldom indulged once, and it was not until dusk that she set foot on her way home satisfied.

And after she returned to Thousand Boundary Tree Fortress, she got the latest information and re-realized the fact that she was still in a war period.

【The whereabouts of the servant whose job title is Ruler has been confirmed】

-

The sound of the engine broke the silence of the night. A small pickup truck was driving smoothly on the highway. The driver was an elderly man who was still in good spirits, observing the road conditions intently and calmly.

Because it was night, even though there were not many vehicles on the road, his speed was still not fast.

Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from outside the window, and a white palm printed a mark on the glass.

Normally, this kind of "spiritual event" would definitely scare the man, but now he was extremely calm, stopped the car skillfully and calmly, and opened the window over there.

"What's the matter? Miss."

There was a slight noise from the rear compartment, as if something had fallen to the ground, followed by steady and regular footsteps, and then a delicate and beautiful face appeared in the driver's field of vision.

Although it was not the first time I saw it, the old man couldn't help but want to be amazed.

This girl should still be a high school student, but in fact she was indeed wearing a student uniform from somewhere.

The gorgeous blond hair was tied into long braids, and the rest was cut neatly short, which is a bit of a nondescript hairstyle, but it doesn't detract from her beautiful appearance.

Stern yet holy, although young, one can feel a strong and pure will from those eyes.

The driver was moved by that awe-inspiring temperament and believed that she was not a bad person, so he was relieved to let her get in the car.

I just don't know why she stopped now?

"Thank you for your help. I will remember this kindness in my heart, but from now on I will act alone."

"Alone? Are you going to get out of the car?"

The driver looked around subconsciously. There was no shop in front of the village, and it was night. Putting a weak girl in such a place...

No!

If something happened, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life!

"And please trust me, I have reasons why I must do this, and I can protect myself."

"...Really, I know."

Unbelievably, the driver was so easily persuaded, just like a child trusting his parents as a matter of course, without asking any questions, he just drove away with peace of mind.

The blond-haired girl watched the pickup truck leave. She took a deep breath when the lights of the car disappeared completely, and her expression became serious.

Turning around and looking into the darkness where the starlight cannot reach, the girl shouted in a deep voice, "Come out!"

"Yo, good evening, Ruler."

A burly, muscular silhouette emerged from the darkness into the starlight, revealing a formidable mass of gnarled muscle.

Like the girl called "Ruler", he also has blond hair but shorter.

Although it was at night, he was still wearing a pair of sunglasses, making it impossible to see his face clearly, only the arc of the corner of his mouth could be seen.

He is almost two meters tall. With his muscles, it is no exaggeration to call him a "giant man", but what is interesting is that he does not give people the impression of being slow and bulky.

Unlike most of the followers, he was wearing quite modern clothes, even too fashionable, with golden decorations everywhere, just like a delinquent boy.

...In a sense, it is very similar to Red Saber.

"I'm sorry, my uncle is here to fight with you!"

Chapter 417: Sorry!I'm so sorry!

"Akata's Berserker, whose real name is... Sakata Kintoki, why are you blocking my way?"

Dressed in a student uniform and carrying a suitcase in his hand, Ruler, who looked like a girl on a trip, asked awe-inspiring questions. Although he looked no different from ordinary people, his aura was no less than that of the golden servant opposite.

She is Ruler Joan of Arc, or more accurately: Joan of Arc possessed by the girl Leticia.

Ruler (judgment person) is an existence other than the seven major jobs. It will not appear in the Holy Grail War. will be activated as a safety device.

She does not belong to the red side or the black side, and is a follower who only acts to "maintain the operation of the Holy Grail War" and "the survival of the world".

Originally, she should also have obtained a spirit foundation and be summoned as an independent servant, but this time the situation of the Holy Grail War is different. Letitia, a female high school student, possessed her.

In other words, the current Joan of Arc is still a neutral servant, and will not favor either side of red and black—until the abnormal factors of this war are found out.

And once she has determined where the distortion is, she will correct it without hesitation. No matter which camp the opponent is in, as long as it threatens the "world" itself, it is her enemy.

So far, she hasn't made it that far, and she doesn't even know anything about the two camps. Now she is still "absolutely neutral", and there is no reason to be the target of others.

You must know that the servants of Ruler have many privileges granted by the Holy Grail because they want to maintain the operation of the Holy Grail War, and even have the ability to directly sanction ordinary servants. A rational master will never force Ruler to the opposite side.

So, what exactly does Sakata Kintoki appearing here mean...it's really intriguing.

"I don't care about that kind of thing, and I don't understand it, it's just an order from the Master."

As a berserker, Sakata Kintoki has unbelievable rationality, not only can communicate with others without barriers, but even has normal logic.

"I usually don't attack women and children, but if the master wants me to kill you, then I have no choice. Don't blame me, ruler!"

Before the words were finished, dazzling golden lightning flashed and danced in the hands of the berserker, and in the blink of an eye, a strangely shaped but powerful golden giant ax appeared.

boom!

There was a flash of thunder, and the lightning flashed like a dragon, and the berserker's swift attack turned the place where Ruler was into a piece of scorched earth.

In terms of firepower alone, it is even higher than the magic power released by the rebellious knight!

However, this blow failed to end the battle. Although Lei Guang made a small impact, Joan of Arc managed to dodge in time.

Throwing away the suitcase in her hand, she liberated the spirit foundation hidden in the girl's body, and the light and strong silver armor appeared on Joan of Arc's body, turning into the fighting posture that a saint should have, and a rolled up military flag appeared in her hand.
