Chapter 488

In Chaldea, Lin Ye had only just returned when Mashu walked straight over, holding Fou in her arms.

"Senpai, you're back."

"Morning, Mashu." Lin Ye greeted her, then took the lively Fou from her arms. "Fou, have you been eating too much lately? Why do you feel fatter again?"

"Fou!!!"

"Don't lie to me. My eyes are like a ruler; your body is clearly a circle fatter, alright?"

"Fou!!! Fou fou fou fou!" Fou struggled, jumped out of Lin Ye's arms, leaped directly onto Mashu's shoulder, and then turned its head away, ignoring Lin Ye.

"Fou, don't be angry at Senpai. Being a little chubby is quite cute too."

"Fou???"

Fou simply lay flat on Mashu's shoulder and stopped making a sound, ignoring both of you—you two are bad people.

Only then did Lin Ye turn his head to look at Mashu and ask, "What's wrong, Mashu? Is something the matter?"

"Yes." Mashu nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Senpai, you're going to the third singularity this time, right? I... can I... can I go with you?"

Mashu's personality was actually quite insecure, but in the original timeline, the accidents involving other Masters had made the young girl increasingly resilient. However, because of Lin Ye's appearance—especially after he had single-handedly resolved such a troublesome singularity last time—Mashu felt she had reverted to being the little invisible person she once was.

Seeing Mashu's expression, Lin Ye suddenly realized.

That's right. Because he knew about Mashu's situation, he always subconsciously wanted to protect her, but he had forgotten that Mashu also had her own thoughts.

Especially when Mashu believed she didn't have much time left to live.

Having understood this, Lin Ye smiled at her and said,

"Of course. Then, I'll be counting on you this time."

Looking at the gentle Lin Ye before her, Mashu also revealed a happy smile.

"By the way, Senpai, are you planning to bring any other members of Team S this time?"

"This time? No need. This Lostbelt is quite easy; the two of us will be enough."

This wasn't Lin Ye being arrogant; it was mainly because, if he remembered correctly, the Servants in this singularity were all old acquaintances, so the difficulty really wasn't high.

And although he wasn't bringing Team S, he was actually bringing quite a few Servants this time.

Hearing Lin Ye say this, the junior had no objections, and then they went straight to find Roman to begin the Rayshift.

Of course, they also brought the mascot, little Fou.

Full process... complete... preparation... complete... Rayshift... starting...

Hum!

With a dizzying sensation, Lin Ye and Mashu successfully arrived at the third singularity.

Hum! Hum!

The next second, two figures descended from the sky like two meteors!

"Senpai!" Mashu looked at Lin Ye, who was free-falling beside her. She had already taken out her shield, preparing to activate her Noble Phantasm to negate the impact of the landing, but Lin Ye stopped her directly.

"Don't worry, the ocean is my home turf."

As Lin Ye's voice faded, the two were only a dozen meters away from the boundless sea, but in the next second, a giant hand condensed from seawater directly caught them.

"Wow!" Standing on the hand made of seawater, Mashu looked at Lin Ye beside her with excitement.

Lin Ye-senpai is truly amazing; it feels like nothing can stump him.

"But Lin Ye-senpai, are we just going to keep floating on the sea like this?"

"If you want to go swimming in the sea, that's fine too. I can give you a blessing for underwater breathing, or walking on water is also possible."

Mashu...

Although it feels very cool, but... I still feel like this style is very strange.

Lin Ye also thought about it; since they had arrived at the ocean, it would be a pity not to have a ship.

Wait, a ship??? I seem to have two!

Lin Ye took a card he hadn't used in a long time out of his pocket.

Heroic Spirit Class Card: Rider, Francis Drake.

He had obtained it back in the world of Magical Girl Illya, but he had never used it. Now was the perfect time.

"Noble Phantasm release, Golden Wild Hunt!"

Hum!!!

With a distortion in space, a massive warship appeared. This was the flagship of the Golden Wild Hunt, the Golden Hind!

Standing on the Golden Hind, letting the sea breeze blow against his face, Lin Ye felt refreshed. At this moment, he just wanted to shout out loud!

"I will definitely become the Pirate King!"

Mashu...

Senpai is great in every way, but sometimes he just says strange things that she can't understand.

*Ahem, ahem...*

The atmosphere felt a bit awkward, but it didn't matter. Since there were only two people present, as long as she wasn't embarrassed, then the one who was embarrassed would be someone else.

At this moment, Lin Ye waved his hand, stood at the bow, and shouted to Mashu behind him.

"Mashu, get ready! We're setting sail! To the far seas!"

"Yes, Senpai!"

The blockade of the four seas! It has begun!

On the ocean, a massive ship was sailing. On this ship, a gorgeously dressed blonde man was sitting on a luxurious lounge chair, holding a glass of red wine and swirling it silently.

"Ah... as expected, this is what life is all about."

The man sighed, and behind him, a pair of blonde fraternal twins watched him speechlessly.

"Jason, we let you be the vice-captain, not for you to slack off here. Can't you be as reliable as Lin Ye?"

Hearing the twins' words, Jason suddenly jumped up from the lounge chair and shouted excitedly: "So what if I'm the vice-captain! Vice-captain means that when the captain isn't here, I am the captain!"

The Dioscuri twins...

"You... why are you so excited... we were just saying."

"How can you say it's just saying! Anything Lin Ye can do, I can do; anything Lin Ye can't do, I can also do. The captain should have been mine to begin with! You tell me! What right does he have to be the captain!"

Pollux Dioscuri: "It's over, brother. Has Jason become a bit... arrogant after being captain for a few days?"

Castor Dioscuri: "It seems so, sister."

Jason...

I always feel like I'm being looked down upon.

But this wasn't the end, because there was more than just these two siblings on the ship.

Pollux: "Lin Ye can turn the rivers and seas upside down; can you?"

Jason...

Castor: "Lin Ye can foresee the future; can you?"

Jason...

The passing God of Medicine, Asclepius: "Lin Ye can slay gods; can you?"

Jason...

Atalanta (Berserker), who hadn't spoken until now: "And Lin Ye is also more handsome than you."

"I don't accept this! I, Jason, am also a world-renowned handsome man in Ancient Greece, alright! Right! Medea!"

Medea Lily, who had been sitting on the side wiping her staff, looked at Jason, then turned her head away with disdain and stood beside Atalanta.

Although she didn't speak, her attitude said it all.

"Sigh..."

Jason sighed helplessly. Since he, Jason, was on this Argo, why did there have to be a Lin Ye?

After the large-scale simulation ended back then, the heroes of the Argo gathered according to history. Although Lin Ye didn't appear, everyone still considered him the captain because of the memories and tangible benefits brought by the simulation.

Considering that everyone needed a leader, Jason was considered the vice-captain, and then everyone followed the content of the simulation to reach Colchis and meet Medea.

And Medea helped them obtain the Golden Fleece without a second word, after all, she knew they were Lin Ye's friends.

But in all fairness, Jason was unconvinced. After all, he was the one who led everyone to complete the journey, but in everyone's heart, Lin Ye's status was higher than his. How could he be convinced?

As for why Jason didn't go find Lin Ye for a fight despite being unconvinced... Jason indicated that he was just unconvinced, not stupid. Fight Lin Ye? Was he crazy?

So,

Jason looked at the crew members in front of him, patted his chest, and promised everyone: "So, this time I will lead you to complete an even greater journey. I will prove to you! Even if I'm not as handsome as Lin Ye! Not as strong! Not as capable of seeing through the past and present! Not as well-versed in everything! But! My leadership is definitely stronger than his!"

Pollux: "Sister, although Jason said that with great momentum, why do I always feel like he's so pitiful?"

Castor: "Yes, brother. Seeing him so pitiful, let's help him. After all, he was the one who used the Holy Grail to summon us."

And so, watching the impassioned Jason, everyone present applauded!

And looking at everyone cheering for him, Jason also raised his head confidently. On the current Argo, he had Jason, Medea Lily, her senior Circe, the Gemini Dioscuri, Atalanta (Berserker), the God of Medicine Asclepius, and Hector, whom he had sent out as reinforcements—eight great Heroic Spirits! This lineup is invincible! Tell me how I can lose!

0 requests for flowers.

And what he didn't tell this group of people was that he hadn't just summoned these heroes of the Argo this time; he had also summoned a powerful reinforcement!

And at this moment, on an island, a two-meter-tall, muscular man shot a giant wild boar with an arrow, then skillfully skinned and gutted it to start roasting!

He was the trump card Jason had summoned!
