Holy Grail War, but the Immortal Grail

Mei Li had previously revealed to Li Huang some of the configurations observed by clairvoyants. Except for a few followers who could not see them, she also told Li Huang the real names of several followers.

He thought that what Mei Li saw was the plot of the original four wars, but the actual situation did not seem to be the case. The only possible explanation was that the configuration of this Holy Grail War was definitely more than seven.

"For the Holy Grail War with more than seven people, and two archers, it's probably the 14th Servant Cup Dual Job Agency."

"So the pretender you told me was a lie. In fact, you are caster, right?"

Because Gilgamesh spilled the beans, in order to prevent him from discovering the configuration of the Holy Grail War, and partly out of mischief, Mei Li lied to Li Huang.

"I will tell you my identity, and then you will tell me the true configuration of this Holy Grail War, an exchange of equal value."

......

In the deep mountains of Fuyuki, hundreds of insects gathered together as if they were called, and turned into an old man with a bald head and skinny limbs like a mummy.

Matou Zouken used his last strength to barely break away from his body under Enkidu's bombardment, creating the illusion that he was actually dead.

But even if he was out of danger, he now felt like he was about to die.

Ninety percent of the magic power and bugs that sustain life have been consumed by the bombardment of the Noble Phantasm, and now what is left is unable to sustain life at all, and even reincarnation is difficult.

Matou Zangyan still maintains consciousness now, just because of the obsession of not wanting to die engraved in his instinct, but now the last consciousness is about to dissipate.

In his blur of consciousness, he vaguely saw a blond man wearing modern clothes and sunglasses appearing in front of him, staring at himself with interesting eyes and saying to himself:

"You're lucky to be able to see me when you're about to die."

"According to regulations, you should be given a trial, but you don't seem to be a warrior."

"Forget it, for the sake of my good mood, I will be merciful and give you a trial. If you pass, you will get a chance to continue living."

"Now, you can get out."

Chapter 23: If it’s too difficult, just give it a try

Now that Li Huang has guessed the configuration of the rules of this Holy Grail War, there is no need for Meili to hide anything.

"Girls will hate you if you know too much. As you might guess, there are fourteen Servants in this Holy Grail War."

Seeing that Meili showed rare candor, Li Huang also showed a heart-to-heart attitude with her. However, he did not tell everything, but only vaguely explained things about himself, leaving the rest to Meili. Make your own guess.

"Well, as you guessed, I don't belong to this era."

"What? I didn't randomly guess the master's identity." She responded with an awkward pout, and Mei Li didn't look very happy.

Ignoring the woman's pretentiousness, Li Huang began to think about the next question.

"Since it is a Holy Grail War with fourteen Servants, does it also have fourteen Masters?"

If this is the case, wouldn't Fuyuki's master configuration be insufficient? You must know that whether it is four battles or five battles, this seven-person configuration can overwhelm amateur masters and force them to make up the number.

It is impossible for 14 people to bring in seven more laymen now.

"The other seven should be slaves without masters, but I don't know why I was summoned by you."

Mei Li continued to explain to Li Huang some of the configuration information about the Holy Grail War that she had read from Clairvoyance.

"A follower without an owner, in other words, is the Holy Grail offered to the demon but without a command spell?" Li Huang summarized the situation of the other seven followers.

Since the Master has the rule of Command Spell, the Master can be regarded as a double-edged sword for the Servants.

In the Holy Grail War, the Command Spell is the key trump card that determines the outcome. Key support can have an effect of one plus one greater than two.

But the Master is also the weakness of the Servant. Not to mention the quarrels caused by incompatibility, the Master is killed and the loss of the demon will also have an impact on the subsequent battle.

Unless someone like Xiao En has the means to communicate with the earth, a servant who loses the supply of magic power is just a blank slate with an empty panel.

"Probably so. The Masterless Servants Holy Grail will be summoned one after another, but there is no explanation of the camp among the two waves of summoned Servants."

Mellie squinted and rubbed her beautiful silver hair. She was also a little confused about the pattern of this Holy Grail War. There were indeed too many unreasonable things happening.

Anyway, since knowing that all the "gods" appearing in this Holy Grail War are "gods" that she can't defeat, Melly has become more open-minded.

However, she did not lie to Li Huang about clairvoyance. There were many things in this Holy Grail War that blocked her omniscience; on the other hand, even if she could really see everything, Meili would not see all the truth clearly.

After all, the unknown is interesting. If she can see everything clearly with clairvoyance, then does she want to enjoy the uncomfortable expressions of others after encountering suffering for entertainment?

Si——It doesn’t seem impossible?

"Let's meet up first and then talk. Kenneth will probably not be able to swallow this breath and take the Lancer to the Einzbern Castle to trouble Kiritsugu."

Based on the personalities of the characters, Li Huang can probably guess the basic movements of these characters, but he still can't see through the Assassin and Rider.

Since they can block Mellie's clairvoyance perception, they should be two very powerful servants.

Ignoring the other six servants who have not yet appeared, Li Huang plans to give priority to the few pairs of masters and slaves he has figured out.

.....

The dreamlike mist and Mei Li's face dissipated in front of Li Huang. When his consciousness returned to reality, he happened to be in a state where he had just changed his clothes. Yan Ye did not notice anything was wrong.

"It's time to go." He called Mei Luxin who was waiting for him outside the door like a knight, and the two of them left the Matou house at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye.

A white light flashed in the sky, and the journey of dozens of kilometers was just a moment for Meluxin. After a while, they arrived at the new stronghold that Kenneth had prepared for himself.

Just as he stepped into the stronghold, Li Huang heard scolding from Kenneth, who seemed to be dissatisfied with Meili's ability to create positions.

Hearing the sound of Li Huang's footsteps, Kenneth gradually calmed down and returned to his aristocratic elegance. After all, Meili was essentially Li Huang's servant, and it was not easy for him to accuse her in front of her face.

"who is she?"

Seeing that Li Huang also brought back a girl with purple hair, Kenneth's expression gradually became unhappy. This was not a shelter. How could Li Huang just pick up a child and bring it to him?

"Caster, take her to check her body. Mr. Kenneth and I will be alone for a while." He signaled to Meili to take Ying away first. Li Huang found a chair and sat on it, bearing Kenneth's anger alone.

Kenneth is indeed the one who is best fooled among all the Masters, but that is only if he does not hold back. Now that all his belongings have been blown up by Kiritsugu's bomb, he will not be in a good mood. Even Li Huang can understand.

"Tosaka Tokiomi's daughter has good magic talent but can't afford to raise her. She was adopted by the Matou family. Unfortunately, she didn't have a good life in the Matou family and was taken out by me."

Li Huang briefly explained Ying's matter to Kenneth. He didn't have the patience to listen to the complicated situation.

"Did you take the initiative to offend the Master of the Matou family?" Kenneth keenly grasped the key point in that sentence.

As one of the three royal families of Fuyuki, the Matou family must also have a quota for the Holy Grail War, but it is not clear which servant the Matou family summoned.

"Yeah, and in order to command Berserker, Matou Yogan only has two Command Seals left."

"Lancer can testify to this."

Deliberately concealing the fact that he had a good relationship with Matou Kariya, Li Huang deliberately played a language trap that ignored the process and only looked at the results.

"Well, that's it."

After hearing that Li Huang and Lancer had produced corresponding results, not only gathering information but also reducing the strength of other groups, Kenneth's depressed mood eased a little.

It seems that Li Huang himself is more useful than the powerful Caster.

"Did you bring this little girl out to threaten the Matou family?" Kenneth continued to ask this question.

"That's not the case. I'm just a kind-hearted person who doesn't want to see the little girl suffer, so I rescued her."

"The Matou family are practicing insect magic. In order to adapt Sakura's physique to insect magic, they threw her into the insect warehouse. The pain is almost as painful as the seal designation."

Normal people's moral values ​​do not exist in the magic world, and it is normal to sacrifice something for magic, but what Zang Yan does is heavyweight even in the magic world.

If it's not suitable, don't use it. Forcibly modifying the body and throwing the person into a bug barn or something like that, even Kenneth thinks it's a bit too much.

After all, he is a country bumpkin from a small place who would not hesitate to do such a shameful thing for the sake of magic inheritance.

"With rare virtual attributes and 40 main circuits, even if the talent is placed in the clock tower, it is a rare talent." Introducing Sakura's qualifications, Li Huang told Kenneth his plan.

"It's impossible that Clock Tower wouldn't be interested in such a talent. Can you please find a good family to take her in again?"

Chapter 24:Magician Killer and Magician

"There are actually forty main magic circuits? It's still a rare virtual attribute."

Unexpectedly, there is such a talented magician in such a rural place. Kenneth, who had previously been indifferent to Sakura's talent, began to pay attention to her.

Start thinking seriously about what to do with her.

Unless some specific bloodline magic is inherited, generally speaking, the magician family does not particularly care about the issue of blood, and with the talent of that little girl, there is really no need to worry about no one wanting her.

Just as Li Huang thought, after she explained Ying's talent, Kenneth's attitude towards Ying was indeed shaken.

In the magic world, magic circuits are equivalent to the spiritual roots of immortality novels. If they don't have them, only Muggles who don't know any magic will be qualified to step into the path of magic.

The quality of magic circuits determines the magician's talent on this path. A low number of magic circuits can be made up for by quality, and the quality of a person with a high number of magic circuits will naturally not be that low.

40 main circuits is already a very astonishing number. Coupled with the extremely rare virtual attribute, the magic aptitude of the two daughters of the Tohsaka family is indeed excellent, which is a bit exaggerated.

"If it's true as you said, then I will help you solve this matter."

Just as Li Huang expected, Kenneth had no reason to reject Ying's talent and readily agreed to his terms.

As for adopting others, he shouldn't have to worry. Although magicians are a little perverted, they are also very kind to their heirs. If everyone was as perverted as the old bug, the magic world would have been darkened long ago.

After finishing the off-topic conversation, it was natural to return to the right track of the Holy Grail War. Kenneth sat down elegantly again and announced his plan for tonight's battle to Li Huang.

He plans to lead the Lancers to the Einzbern family's castle for a wonderful magic showdown.

"The two local families in a rural place like Fuyuki are not interesting at all. Although the Tosaka family has excellent blood, they are just nouveau riche at best."

Even though many of the ceremonial clothes he brought from England were lost due to the collapse of the hotel, Kenneth still maintained the elegance and calmness of a famous magic family, and his disdain for these two families was obvious in his words.

The only person who deserves Kenneth's attention is the Einzbern, who is also from a famous family. This large family has been passed down for thousands of years, and its unique artificial human technology is also very famous in the Clock Tower.

Kenneth was also a famous magician. A duel with a country bumpkin would only make him feel inferior, so when he entered the competition, he had thought of using the master of the Einzbern family as his opponent.

He used his superb magic to defeat the descendant of Einzbern, adding another feather to his glorious resume.

"Don't you know who did the hotel explosion?"

Li Huang knew that Kenneth was looking for trouble tonight, but he thought the director was looking for trouble with Kiritsugu, but it turned out to be Einzbern?

"Hmph! It's just a rat who doesn't dare to fight head-on. He will naturally appear after I deal with the Masters of this Holy Grail War one by one."

Although Kenneth's tone was quite angry, it was revealed from his words that he did not know that the explosion that almost destroyed his fortune was caused by Emiya Kiritsugu.

So it's just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse?I said you are really big-hearted. Knowing that someone is plotting against you, you still go to find a duel with your beloved family in a high-sounding way.

In fact, anyone who has done in-depth preparation for this Holy Grail War can deduce that the explosion was caused by Emiya Kiritsugu.

Because about nine years ago, Einzbern, who was proud of his pure bloodline, suddenly welcomed a magician from outside into his wife. There were also rumors about this within the association.
