Chapter 658
【"Of cou...!"】
【Just as he was about to agree, Lancelot seemed to think of something and said abruptly: "Wait, Master, I remember your eyes can see the future, right?"】
【"Do I? I don't remember?"】
【The young man subconsciously turned his head away, only to find Lancelot following him, his eyes fixed on him without moving: "Please tell me, will the Saber of the next Holy Grail War still be the King?"】
【Little Lan, you've really changed.】
【You've become suspicious, you've become unreasonable.】
【But...】
【The young man hooked a smile, righteous and confident: "No, the Saber next time won't be your King. The Noble Phantasm she holds is a spear."】
【That's really great.】
【Lancelot was just about to smile when his expression suddenly tightened.】
【The King's main combat Noble Phantasm isn't a sword, but a spear. After all, long weapons really have an advantage on the battlefield.】
【As if sensing his hesitation, Luo Shu's eyes flickered: "I'm not talking about a Servant, but a living person."】
【A living person?】
【Lancelot finally set his heart at ease, almost weeping with joy.】
【Luo Shu put his arm around his shoulder and said enthusiastically: "You guessed it, right? We aren't from this era.】
【To tell you the truth, the purpose of our coming to this world is to save it, and the woman I asked you to help catch.】
【Yes, a woman. It's because she doesn't look favorably on the future, yet loves humanity too much, so she's preparing to exterminate humanity first, selecting holy human souls to send into God-made armaments to freeze them, thereby making them eternal."】
【The more he said, the more relieved Lancelot felt.】
【It couldn't possibly be the King.】
【Especially when the young man indicated that the woman was 1.7 meters tall, had an explosive figure, and was a beautiful mature woman.】
【Although it's a bit blasphemous, but the King... cough cough.】
【The young man raised an eyebrow: "So...?"】
【Lancelot knelt on one knee solemnly, his right hand over his heart: "Offering my sword to you is my glory."】
【Afterward, he swore with the highest knightly oath that when they met again, he would definitely act for his will.】
【The young man beamed.】
【Every word he said was the truth.】
【"Alright, let's go to the Caster's lair first and catch a loli to take home."】
【"Yes!"】
"Brother Luo Shu is truly strong. Just getting a little serious scared Little Lan."
"What do you think? If he weren't uninterested in the Holy Grail, I'd believe he could end this Holy Grail War in one night."
"I always feel like Little Lan has been tricked again. Eh, why did I say 'again'?"
Many people racked their brains, completely unable to think of who that woman would be if what Brother Luo Shu said was true.
"Could it be Guinevere?"
"Impossible, he said it's a living person."
"Lancelot doesn't know, but you don't know? A Singularity is a distorted time node in the past. What if a certain Singularity is Camelot, when Guinevere was still alive?"
"Still impossible. In the memories, Guinevere's figure was at most better than Saber's. If Saber is a zero, she's a zero point one."
"Then who is it? Damn, it couldn't be Lancelot's mother, could it?"
Racking their brains and unable to think of a suitable person, someone finally hesitated: "Could it be that Brother Luo Shu really didn't set a trap?"
Instantly.
The group was indignant.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. That's Brother Luo Shu."
"Exactly, are you doubting the principles of a troll?"
"Watch your words, you're insulting Brother Luo Shu's professional ethics."
Although everyone respected and even adored the young man, they had absolute trust in his personality.
"Alright, alright, we'll know when the time comes. Holy shit, Rider seems to have caught Caster's base too!"
【"How truly hot-blooded, hahahahaha."】
【Betsu-kawa District.】
【In the attic of a detached house.】
【The burly red-haired giant hugged his arms, looking at the smoke and dust that occasionally surged in the distance, sighing.】
【It's just a pity that such powerful heroes are unwilling to join his command.】
【It was quiet for a moment.】
【Not waiting for a response from his little Master, he turned his head curiously and found the other party constantly verifying something in front of a row of glass test tubes.】
【"What are you doing?"】
【He leaned over curiously, casting a shadow.】
【"Comparing the water quality of different river sections."】
【The boy was fully focused, didn't even turn his head, and finally picked up a test tube with dark water quality: "This is it."】
【"Tracking the location of the sewer pipe with this water quality should lead us to Caster's base."】
【His professional demeanor was full of presence, causing the red-haired giant to nod involuntarily, before he asked in shock: "How did you do that?"】
【The boy named Kuroba Kaito explained quite professionally: "Residual magic."】
【"Although magic exists everywhere in the world, life forms at the level of Servants radiate their surroundings simply by existing."】
【"This change is invisible to the naked eye, but the nature of the magic has already changed."】
【He held up the deep purple test tube that was still bubbling, sensing the aura that made his skin crawl, and said solemnly: "This ominous aura... the existence of Heroic Spirits is truly incredible. I even suspect that if the Holy Grail War lasted seventy or seven hundred days instead of seven, Servants could reverse the environment of the entire world to suit themselves just by existing."】
【The more he came into contact with them, and the more he studied them, the more terrified he became.】
【He feared these existences called Heroic Spirits, called Servants; it was unimaginable how such beings could have gathered in the ancient era.】
【Could the gap between the environment of the Age of Gods and the modern era really be that vast?】
【Wait.】
【He looked at the test tube, his pupils shrinking.】
【Could it be that the so-called Age of Gods was actually caused by the overlapping radiation of gods, Phantasmal Species, and heroes?】
【He froze at this terrifying conjecture.】
【Suddenly.】
【"Hiss, Kaito, could it be that you are a quite excellent mage?"】
【A large head leaned in, eyes wide, as if he didn't recognize him.】
【Kaito was stunned, then said with dissatisfaction: "Rider, you aren't mocking me, are you? A mage who doesn't rely on magecraft..."】
【"Hahaha, I am very proud, Kaito. Very good, leave the rest to me."】
【The red-haired giant laughed and patted his shoulder, his sturdy body slowly standing up like a towering mountain, his tiger-like eyes bright.】
【"Lancer, Saber has already shown the heroic posture of a hero; I cannot let them look down on us either."】
366. Hellish tragedy, Heroic Spirit Yukino appears.
"Kuroba Kaito is still quite strong."
"In a sense, quite formidable."
Many people looked at the frail boy on the Sky Curtain and felt they had to look at him with new eyes.
The other party's magecraft ability might be the weakest among the Master mages in this Holy Grail War, but his thinking and reactions were quite fast.
"It's possible Kuroba Kaito's alchemy strength exceeds our expectations. Yukino used modern equipment, and the Shijo family used magecraft, yet neither could find Abigail's nest..."
Mutual Aid Society building.
Kazuma rubbed his chin.
Since Abigail appeared yesterday and displayed her quite dangerous mental state, all Masters and Servants had basically been searching for her nest.
But neither Yukino, who relied on drones deployed in every corner of the city, nor the Shijo family, as the local leyline managers, had discovered Abigail's tracks.
Unexpectedly, this boy, whose good looks even threatened his own, had actually found it.
