Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan

One day ago, on the other side of Fuyuki City.

After escaping from the church, Lion Jie Jieli and Mordred were looking for a place to stay.

In any case, as a magician, Shishi Jiejieli's final destination must be to build a magic workshop.

At first, Mordred recommended choosing a hotel as a magic studio, but Shizi Jieli, who has been in the mercenary world for many years, knew very well that there are people in the world who think that since the other party uses a room in the hotel as a magic studio, Then just destroy the entire hotel.

So after repeated consideration, Shishi Jiejieli finally chose the location of his magic workshop.

"Although what you said makes sense, it wouldn't be in a place like this." Mordred complained with a look of reluctance and disappointment.

At this moment, she had changed her outfit, and Shishi Jiejieli bought her modern clothes at a clothing store in the city center as agreed.

But now it was clearly winter, but Mordred was wearing a cute vest with her belly exposed, and only a red leather jacket on top. This made Lion Jie Jie Liguang feel cold for her just looking at it.

Of course, for Mordred, who is a Servant, this level of hot or cold temperature does not actually have any impact.

She can even move freely in full-metal heavy armor in high temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius or in extreme cold weather of minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius.

The reason why Mordred dislikes it so much is because Shi Jie Kaili chose it as the place for the magic workshop.

She also communicated with magicians during her lifetime. After all, Mordred's mother was a magician herself, so she thought she knew very well how strange, paranoid and egoistic magicians were.

But even though he was mentally prepared, Mordred did not expect that his master would choose such a place as a stronghold.

"Do we really want to choose the underground cemetery as our base? If it doesn't work out, we can just rent a small house..."

There were only candles and bones illuminated by the candle flames around her. A little further away, there was an altar-like place with two sleeping bags. It looked like they were almost certain to sleep here tonight.

"Don't be disgusted, such high-quality spiritual veins are quite rare. If it weren't for being here, they would have been robbed by others. Using a place like this as a base should be very helpful for you to restore your magic power. "

"Master... it's not a matter of spiritual veins anymore..."

"Oh? Ah!" Lion Jie Jieli punched his palm with a fist and made an expression of realization, "I didn't expect, Saber, that you would be afraid of this kind of place."

"No! I just can't accept sleeping in a place like this! I am also a knight after all...well, I am not a knight now, but normal people will protest!" Mordred had a look on his face. Instantly became like a snapping turtle.

"Oh... Okay, don't be awkward. You can use that sleeping bag. After all, that one is five thousand yen more expensive, so it should be more comfortable."

"..."

Facing his master's way of comforting him which was completely unlike a normal person, Mordred lowered his shoulders feebly. Fortunately, after spending so much time with the magician, he learned a wise saying, that is, don't force anything.

Moreover, Mordred also knew very well that his Master did not choose this place as a magic workshop casually. After all, he practiced necromancy magic. Naturally, cemeteries and morgues were full of death. The atmosphere is more suitable for the place.

Moreover, after previous investigation, it was found that this underground cemetery has several exits. As long as all the exits are not blocked by the enemy, it will be easy to escape even if the magic workshop is breached. If anything happens, you can just hit the ground. hole to escape.

At the same time, because the cemetery is surprisingly spacious, there is no need to worry about being blown up and buried alive.

If you want to blow up this place, you must first prepare a considerable amount of explosives or construct an extremely high-end technique. As long as you are careful and vigilant, no one should be able to do such a thing silently under her nose.

Theoretically speaking, as long as you can tolerate the fact that this is an underground cemetery, it can actually be considered a pretty solid fortress.

Because of this, Mordred felt a little powerless. If her master just randomly chose a place, she could get angry and deny it, but since it was a carefully selected fortress, no matter how bad the environment was, she would eventually be able to do so. I can only hold my nose and admit it.

After setting up a detection barrier near the exit of the underground cemetery, Shishi Jiejieli returned to this temporary stronghold. He decided to set up traps on the road here when he had free time, so that he could Servants who want to attack must be delayed to give them time to react.

Then he sat on the ground and took out a glass jar filled with formalin from his backpack.

Mordred, who was just sitting there in a daze, seemed to be intrigued by this thing, and poked his head from behind: "Is this... a snake?"

"Yes, this is the cub of Hydra. There are only two of them in the entire world."

"Oh, what do you want to do with this?"

"Of course it goes without saying that I am a necromancer, so of course I can use it to make weapons."

Lion Jie Jieli opened the jar, carefully took out the Hydra with a clip and placed it on the ground. However, when he turned his head, Mordred next to him planned to touch it.

"Don't move! Don't touch!" Lion Jie Jieli's sharp scolding made Mordred's outstretched hand stop abruptly.

"Scare me, what are you doing, Master, you won't die if you touch it." Mordred pouted with a look of reluctance, but he still retracted his hand obediently.

"Saber, you should have gained knowledge about Hercules when you were summoned. Do you still dare to touch Hydra after seeing it?"

"Huh? Wait! Are you saying that this thing is the cub of the mythical and legendary Hydra?! Is it actually the real thing?" Mordred's eyes widened.

"That's why I say this is an extremely valuable treasure."

Lion Jie Jieli put on special thick gloves and warned carefully: "The body of the Hydra is full of poison. If it is an adult, just breathing nearby will cause lung ulcers, but in front of me This is just a juvenile body, and it’s still a corpse, so as long as it’s not directly touched, it’ll be fine.”

As he spoke, he carefully cut off each head of the Hydra with a knife, and soaked the heads in another red-black liquid that had been prepared in advance.

"What are you going to use it for?"

"It's a bit too small. If the body can be longer, it can be made into a sword or something like that, but if it's only this big, it can only be made into a dagger."

"Oh...will it take a long time?"

"It's not too long, but it will take about three hours. If you don't have anything to do and feel bored, just take a nap first."

Mordred did not choose to sleep immediately, but squatted down next to the lion Jie Jieli, watching him use various tools to perform a very dangerous-looking production process.

"Master...what wish do you want to achieve with the Holy Grail?"

Lion Jie Jieli concentrated his attention and was careful not to let himself be poisoned by the snake venom, while casually answering Mordred's question: "Is there any need to think about it? I definitely hope that our clan can prosper. After all, I am a magician. Well."

Hearing this unexpectedly ordinary wish, Mordred obviously felt very bored.

"What? It's so boring."

"Are you stupid? Prosperity is very important to a magician. If you have children, you can inherit your dreams and research. After all, human life is very short. Even if you try all kinds of methods, But he won’t even live for two hundred years.”

"Children may not inherit your dreams."

"Is this based on your experience?"

As soon as he said this, Lion Jie Jieli suddenly realized that something was wrong with him. Looking at Mordred next to him with a dissatisfied expression, he could only apologize with a wry smile.

However, Mordred was still a little angry. Instead of accepting his apology, he quietly got into the more expensive sleeping bag and started to make trouble.

The underground cemetery became quiet for a while, with only the sound of burning candles and the slight sound of Shi Jie Jie Li performing processing operations.

Lion Jie Jieli worked silently, biting pieces of meat or fruit next to him from time to time as a meal, and occasionally looking at Mordred. The person lying there at this time was not the rebel knight who caused the destruction of an entire country. It was just the sleeping face of a childish girl.

After clearly realizing this fact, Lion Jie Jieli's mood couldn't help but dim.

The rebel knight Mordred is the villain who casts a shadow over the glorious legend of King Arthur at the end.

The myths and legends describe in great detail what happened to King Arthur before his death, and it can even be said that everyone knows it. However, on the other hand, Mordred simply left behind the loneliness of "die after that duel" description.

Lion Jie Jieli looked at the weapon that was gradually taking shape in front of him and fell into thinking. Maybe because he was the summoner, he was a little biased. If you ask him who is better to follow between Mordred and Arthur, he I would probably choose Mordred without hesitation.

Lion Jie Jieli is not sure whether Mordred loves or hates his father. After all, in a sense, love and hatred are adjacent emotions.

But there is no doubt that Mordred was deeply influenced by her father, which is why she betrayed her, although it is unclear whether she wanted to be like her father or to deny her father's actions.

Regardless of good or evil, being able to resolutely resist one's parents is indeed a very courageous act.

"So... is this the reason why I summoned her? From this aspect, our compatibility is indeed quite consistent." Lion Jie Jieli showed a self-deprecating smile.

After finishing the final processing of the weapon, Lion Jie Jieli also got into his sleeping bag and slept until late at night.

…

…

late at night.

As a big city, Fuyuki City will naturally not become silent. It can even be said that the nightlife in the city center has just begun. The bright lights and buildings are incredibly prosperous.

However, in places like suburbs and even mountains and forests, the lights in people's homes have been turned off, and there is not a single store open 24 hours a day.

In the wide park, only the street lights on the road still illuminate the night, but the lights look a little dim, too weak compared to the vast darkness.

This is a suburb in the northeastern corner of Fuyuki City. It is surrounded by about three hectares of forest. The overall terrain presents a platform terrain climbing upward from west to east. At the highest point in the northeastern corner, you can vaguely see a luxuriously decorated castle in the dark. , it seems that the entire Fuyuki City can be seen from that position.

The lions, Shishijie Jieli and Mordred, who had slept all day, began to sneak in from the forest south of the castle after disguising their appearances.

"Are you sure this is here?"

"Well... the priest gave me a lot of information before. It said that some time before the start of the Holy Grail War, high-intensity magic fluctuations were detected at this location. Someone should have summoned the servants in advance. According to what has been said Based on the known information, it is inferred that this servant is most likely Caster or Assassin."

Lion Jie Jieli was wrapped in a black cloth, trying his best to cover up his figure and hide himself in the dark night.

The color of the black cloth and the magic costume he carried were enough for him to sneak in such a late night.

"Then what are we here for this time?" Mordred maintained his spiritual state and stood guard next to Lion Jie Jieli.

"The main thing is to confirm what kind of servant is summoned from the castle. If it is Assassin, who is a great threat to the Master, kill it directly. If it is Caster, retreat immediately to prevent the other party from being trapped in him. In the magic workshop." Lion Jie Jieli lowered his head and glanced at the map in his hand.

"Our stronghold is not too close to here, but it is not too far either. It is better to attack as early as possible before the opponent discovers our stronghold."

"That's it... How about we go there and take a look?" Mordred emerged from his spiritual state and pointed at the thick tree in front of him.

The green environment around the castle is quite good, but the tree is also uniquely tall. Lion Jie Jieli calculated the location and felt that it was a good surveillance location.

"Okay, go up and check, be careful."

Lion Jie Jieli had just finished muttering quietly when he found himself being grabbed by the collar by Mordred, and an ominous premonition immediately filled his body.

"Hello……"

"Don't you want to go up?"

Listening to the "malicious" voice of his servant, Lion Jie Jieli kept twisting and trying to break away, but in vain.

Mordred took a deep breath, and his petite body burst out with great strength. With a strong jump of his legs, the two of them jumped to the treetop.

The moment his body left the ground, Lion Jie Jieli felt a severe pressure on his neck, as if his consciousness was about to fly away.

"You...don't do this next time."

"Don't worry!"

Looking at Mordred, who nodded casually to show that he knew, but showed no reflection on his face, Lion Jie Jieli hesitated whether to teach this guy a lesson.

However, after a moment of silence, Lion Jie Jieli decided to get down to business first.

"How about it?"

"Well, the location here is not very good." Lion Jie Jieli sighed, and Mordred next to him nodded in agreement unhappily.

Because just now, several things that looked like some kind of birds flew out of the castle. When Lion Jiejieli was about to observe the house, he found that a barrier to hinder perception had been imposed on it.

"Saber!"

Before the lion could give the order, Mordred was fully armed and ready to fight.

"Is that... a bird?"

Looking at the things flying above his head, Lion Jie Jieli was a little confused. After all, it was already late at night, and even if he was a magician, he could only barely see the general shape.

However, Modred, who was next to him, could clearly see the appearance of the attacker with his extraordinary vision.

"No! That's...the Golem!"

Stone golems that looked like gargoyles quickly attacked while lowering their height. They attacked the enemies below from all directions.

Mordred charged up a little and then jumped up and quickly chopped one of them to pieces. He also used the nearest stone statue as a springboard to move and quickly chopped down the remaining ones.

"Damn it! There are other enemies!"

Following the reminder from Lion Jie Jieli, Mordred quickly raised the sword in his hand after landing on the ground.

At some point, a large number of humanoid or non-humanoid golems appeared in the forest, coming from all directions. It seemed that they were hiding near nearby rocks or trees in a mimicry way.

And it wasn't just the golem, some dragon tooth soldiers holding swords and axes also gathered at some point and followed the golem to surround the two of them.

At the very back of the Dragon Tooth Soldiers, there were some strange-looking humans gathered together, looking like they were preparing some kind of long-range attack technique.

No, if you insist on saying that those at the end are human beings, the emotions seem a bit too weak. The most important thing is that the appearance of these people will make people misunderstand that they are all brothers, basically carved from the same mold. .

"That is... an artificial life form. It should not be a normal human being. It is most likely an artificial human being."

"!"

Hearing his Master's muttering, Mordred's body trembled.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing...Master, give me the order."

"We can't let the androids in the back row prepare the spell. You need to deal with the golems and dragon teeth in the front row. I'll deal with them!"

"learn!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Mordred crushed the ground with the momentum of a heavy cannon and rushed towards the demons that had surrounded them. Even this group of solid demons made of stone or bronze could not escape from her attack. It is the fate of being crushed like pieces of paper or wood.

A golem that was extraordinarily huge compared to other golems took advantage of the moment when Mordred's body stiffened after the attack, and planned to crush Mordred with its huge body, but she just yelled. , flicked his sinking body upwards, and knocked away the several-ton demon statue with his bare hands.

Mordred's fighting style is far from the elegant and gorgeous swordsmanship of a knight in the traditional sense. If you just look at her performance, some people may think that she should be regarded as a berserker or a beast.

The long sword that should have been wielded with both hands was waved easily with one hand. The other free hand did not hold the shield. Instead, it was clenched into a fist and punched continuously to attack.

Suddenly, Mordred threw the long sword in her hand and directly penetrated a golem attacking from the air, while her other hand received the fist thrown by a golem next to her, and then shouted He grabbed the golem's arm with his backhand and threw it out. It hit another golem that was penetrated in the air and shattered both of them.

Mordred took the opportunity to touch the long sword that fell with the fragments. Taking advantage of the brief confusion, he once again galloped towards the other golem, cutting down the surrounding dragon tooth soldiers.

Just when Mordred was fighting fiercely with the golems, Lion Jie Jieli relied on his magic ritual and took advantage of the chaos to sneak up to the artificial life forms.

This process is not too easy. Those golems are not bad. The Dragon Tooth Soldier seems to have such detection ability for life forms, so that Lion Jie Jie Li was discovered several times and had no choice but to run away.

Fortunately, as a necromancer, he should not have too little aura of the dead on his body, so he could hide from the detection of the dragon tooth soldiers after a slight adjustment.

Looking at the artificial life form in the distance that had prepared the technique to the last possible moment, Shishi Jiejieli took out a large shotgun from his arms.

The stock and barrel of this shotgun are sawn extremely short, which makes it easy to carry and use indoors, but also results in a very short effective range.

However, for the necromancer Lion Jie Jieli, the original excellent performance of the gun has nothing to do with whether he wants to use it as a weapon.

"Take the move!"

After muttering silently in his heart, Lion Jie Jieli casually pulled the trigger on the group of artificial life forms.

He didn't aim carefully from the beginning. After all, the point was just to hold the gun in his hand. The firing pin and other parts of the shotgun in his hand had already been treated with spells, so the bullets in the gun itself were more important. .

The bullets inside were the same as the bullets he used when facing Berserker before. They were all bullets made from human fingers.

Of course, the effect of these bullets cannot be compared with the two treasured gifts, but they are still useful enough.

There is a type of magic called Gandr in Nordic rune magic. This kind of magic only needs to point at the opponent to cast a curse. If enough powerful magic is poured into it, it can also exert bullet-like physical power.

Based on this casting standard, Lion Jie Jieli created this kind of finger bullet with necromancy magic. Although the speed can only reach subsonic speed at most, it can detect the body temperature in the direction of travel and automatically correct it like a snake. track.

And when the bullet reaches the enemy's body, the curse will also erupt at the same time. It is a real magic bullet that kills with one hit.

The fired finger bullets outlined a strange arc, knocking down several artificial life forms in an instant.

After firing two shots, Lion Jie Jieli had exposed his position.

The artificial life forms that were disturbed also reacted very quickly. They immediately picked up the giant ax or long knife beside them, burst out with blue magic light, and rushed towards the lion Jie Jieli at a speed that exceeded the limit of the human body.

"What?!"

Faced with the magic power erupting from these artificial life forms, Lion Jie Jieli was shocked and simply gave up reloading bullets. Instead, he took out a strange thing from his arms with some pain.

It was a somewhat shrunken red-black object. After looking closely, I realized that it was actually a human heart. From the magic circuits flowing on the heart, it was not difficult to see that it was the heart of a magician.

Lion Jie Jieli threw the heart in his hand to the place where the human life forms gathered. The thing suddenly expanded and exploded after it hit the ground. Things like the magician's teeth and nails stuffed inside also exploded as easily as fragments. Stab into the body of the artificial life form, and all the artificial life forms that are hit are quickly and painfully poisoned and die.

"Suffer it!"

Seeing that the enemy in front of him was completely eliminated, Lion Jie Jieli not only did not look happy, but his face darkened, because just now, the surrounding Dragon Tooth Soldiers had already surrounded him.

His necromantic magic is very lethal to living creatures, but it has almost no combat capability when facing something like the Dragon Tooth Soldier, which is itself a dead thing.

"Get away!"

Mordred's roar came from the sky, and the whole figure crashed down from the sky like a meteorite carrying red magic light. It accurately hit the center of the dragon tooth soldiers, and the shock wave it carried shook these bodies. The dragon tooth soldiers, which were comparable to steel, were blasted into pieces.

"Master, how are you?"

Mordred didn't pause after landing. He picked up his long sword and swung it, blasting the dragon tooth soldiers close to Lion Jie Jieli on the other side into pieces.

"Bah, bah, bah, I'm fine, thanks Saber."

Lion Jie Jieli crawled out of the mound of soil thrown up by the shock wave in embarrassment. He spat out the dirt in his mouth a few times and said, "I really worked hard on you this time. Fortunately, you are here."

"Oh! What a joke! Hahahaha!"

Although he said this, Mordred's expression looked very happy, as if it was the first time that he was so approved by someone.

Thank you to the readers of Pseudo-Japanese for the reward, thank you for your support.
