Chapter 1621: This Is Called Very Safe?

~9 min read 1,748 words

Matou Shinji in the trash can was full of horror. Looking at his expression, it was clear he was prepared to sell out his teammates to survive.

"Where is Kotomine Kirei."

Su Xiao's fingers hooked, and the Boundary Breaking Line popped out from his sleeve, wrapping around Matou Shinji's neck.

"This..."

Matou Shinji was speechless for a moment. He actually didn't know where Kotomine Kirei was either. The last time they met was when he found the other party through various channels, and there was a lot of luck involved.

"Since you don't know, you're useless."

"No, give me some time..."

Zzz~

The Boundary Breaking Line tightened, cutting deeply into Matou Shinji's neck. After the cold thread cut through his flesh and blood, it pulled away from his body, and a thread of blood drifted in the air.

Matou Shinji's eyes widened, his hands covering his throat, gurgling blood spraying out. He made choking sounds in his mouth, his body gradually softening and falling into the trash can.

With a bang, Su Xiao covered the trash can lid and walked toward the outside of the alley. Tohsaka Rin behind him was stunned for a moment, eventually following suit.

"Sorry."

Tohsaka Rin whispered, then walked out of the alley in a daze. Seeing an acquaintance die before her eyes was quite a shock, but the other party was an enemy master; this was the Holy Grail War.

Outside the alley, Su Xiao was closing his eyes, sensing something. The Apostle's Eye in the high sky had switched to alert mode. The main reason he didn't show up when Amu and Cú Chulainn were fighting was that he was looking for Kotomine Kirei. With the other party's cautious personality, it was very likely they were hiding nearby.

Unfortunately, Su Xiao never found Kotomine Kirei's location. As for tracking Golden Flash, that was indeed a good method, but with Golden Flash's strength, unless Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang followed, the possibility of success was very low. Unfortunately, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was watching Stan and the others.

In the final analysis, Su Xiao still had to solve the Blood Gate adventure group before he could participate in the Holy Grail War with peace of mind.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao recalled the Apostle's Eye and took Tohsaka Rin toward the edge of Fuyuki City. In this battle, Su Xiao's gains were not low. Amu had killed Cú Chulainn after all, and only now did he have time to check the prompts from the Samsara Paradise.

【Your servant killed Cú Chulainn (Lancer).】

【Cú Chulainn was one of the seven Heroic Spirits participating in this Holy Grail War. Obtained 7.3% of the World's Source. Currently obtained a total of 7.3% of the World's Source.】

【You obtained a Golden Set Treasure Chest (There is a relatively high probability of obtaining a golden set from this treasure chest).】

【You killed Matou Shinji.】

【You obtained 0.2% of the World's Source. Currently obtained a total of 7.5% of the World's Source.】

Seeing that killing Matou Shinji also obtained 0.2% of the World's Source, Su Xiao wasn't surprised. As for the golden set treasure chest dropped by Cú Chulainn, once a golden set was opened from this thing, its value would be no less than a legendary treasure chest.

Walking on the street, Su Xiao had been considering one thing: what exactly was the Blood Gate's team main mission.

According to Su Xiao's understanding of large adventure groups, first of all, their main mission was definitely not simple, and it was very likely related to the Holy Grail War. Secondly, there was a high probability that it required team cooperation to complete.

The most ideal way at the moment was for Su Xiao to destroy the Blood Gate's team main mission. In this way, he could kill all the people of the Blood Gate.

Not to mention anything else, just fighting the Blood Gate head-on was completely not worth it. The first two times Su Xiao ambushed the Blood Gate members, it was entirely because there was no other way. Now, through Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's tracking, Su Xiao confirmed the importance of the team main mission to the Blood Gate.

At the beginning of the Holy Grail world, the people of the Blood Gate started purging the Qiyuezhe in this world. At that time, they still put the Artificial Holy Grail plan first. But after Su Xiao appeared, Stan decisively abandoned the Artificial Holy Grail plan. This wasn't because Stan was a coward, but because he put the team main mission first.

After the Blood Gate was attacked for the first time, they turned around and attacked the Kotomine Church and sealed off the Central Street area. This seemed to be luring Su Xiao to show up, but in reality, the Blood Gate's target wasn't Su Xiao. They just wanted to go to the Kotomine Church. As for sealing off the Central Street area, it was just to prevent Su Xiao from coming to stir up trouble.

The Blood Gate adventure group almost leveled the Kotomine Church. At that time, there was no one in the Kotomine Church, which meant they were looking for something, or the whereabouts of someone. After finding nothing, they blew up the Kotomine Church, using it as a smoke bomb to let Su Xiao mistakenly think this was a trap set for him.

At first, Su Xiao hadn't thought of this point. At that time, the battle between him and the Blood Gate was too intense. But shortly after, when he fought Golden Flash, Stan and the others arrived at an incredible speed, and he vaguely sensed something was wrong.

Stan and the others arrived too quickly. From the time they left the barrier in the suburbs to the time they approached the battlefield between Su Xiao and Golden Flash, the whole process was only a few hours. Being able to locate to such a precise degree could only explain one thing: Stan was looking for Kotomine Kirei.

Su Xiao and Stan had already fought to the death. At this time, the other party actually still had the leisure to look for Kotomine Kirei? The situation was already very clear: the Blood Gate's target was Kotomine Kirei, or rather, Kotomine Kirei was closely related to the Blood Gate's team main mission.

"Self-inflicted, cannot live."

Su Xiao couldn't help but laugh, because the current situation was very interesting. Stan had very likely dug a hole in the Fourth Holy Grail War, and now he was pushed into this hole by the team main mission.

Hearing Su Xiao's laughter, Tohsaka Rin, who was admiring the Star Brilliance array on the mirror, felt a chill down her spine, her heart tangled. She didn't know if it was good or bad to have such a Heroic Spirit.

Seeming to have figured something out, Su Xiao's mood became even better. If nothing went wrong, this Holy Grail War would end soon. Once the Blood Gate adventure group was solved, he could push forward all the way afterward.

"Rin, find a way to contact the Mage's Association, it's best to contact the Clock Tower directly, and tell them that Kotomine Kirei is stealing from his own house."

"This..."

Tohsaka Rin was a bit confused. Kotomine Kirei was from the Holy Church. If she wanted to report, it was obvious she should report to the Holy Church. Moreover, she herself was suspected of "cheating," having three Heroic Spirits to help. At this time, going to report Kotomine Kirei, she always had a sense of guilt as a cheater reporting someone else for using a bug.

"Just go and report. Rest assured, the Mage's Association will be more enthusiastic than you think about this matter."

Su Xiao's purpose was very simple: to find Kotomine Kirei before Stan. No matter what the other party wanted to get, catching Kotomine Kirei first was never wrong. As for reporting to the Mage's Association, this was using local forces to find Kotomine Kirei— ===== CHAPTER 1622 =====

"Huh?!"

Hearing Su Xiao's words, Tohsaka Rin was chilled to the bone; she retreated slowly, looking as if she would rather die than submit.

Seeing Tohsaka Rin's reaction, Su Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He had a very good idea that needed testing right now; judging by the situation tonight, it was only prudent to ensure Tohsaka Rin had the ability to protect herself.

"I'm telling you, this kind of thing cannot be forced, and this is a crime, regardless of..."

Under Tohsaka Rin's symbolic struggle, her top was removed, and she was made to lie on the sofa.

Su Xiao pulled the coffee table over and sat on it, with over a dozen alchemy materials placed on top. Before him lay Tohsaka Rin, who was lying on the sofa, wearing only her brassiere and blushing mysteriously.

"Is it... really okay? I won't turn into a monster?"

"Theoretically speaking, it's fine."

"Theoretically..."

With a 'snap', Su Xiao used the folding knife in his hand to snip the back strap of Tohsaka Rin's brassiere. Tohsaka Rin felt a sense of release, which only made her more nervous, her hands blocking her chest to avoid exposure.

Su Xiao's idea was simple: to carve an alchemy array on Tohsaka Rin's back. The main function of this array was to store energy, with properties as close to a Command Spell as possible.

One must know that the mana in this world is universal; what truly determines magic attributes are the Magic Circuits. Su Xiao had no research into Magic Circuits, nor did he want to study them. What he wanted to do was to give Tohsaka Rin a massive amount of mana; even if it couldn't increase the intensity of her magic, it would at least make her a turret.

A metal injection gun appeared in Su Xiao's hand. Seeing this, Tohsaka Rin, who had just calmed down, nearly sat up in shock.

"What are you doing this time?"

"This is a biological anesthetic. It has over 70% fewer side effects than most anesthetics and can prevent you from going into shock due to extreme pain while I carve the 'Third Starlight Alchemy Array', which would otherwise cause brain death. Overall, it's very safe."

Starlight, alchemy array, extreme pain, shock, brain death, and other sensitive terms continuously stimulated Tohsaka Rin's nerves. She grabbed her clothes to flee, but half a minute later, she was back lying on the sofa, sleeping exceptionally soundly.
