Chapter 744: Kariya and Tokiomi
Seeing this hidden quest, Su Xiao's heartbeat not only accelerated. The "can specify any skill level +1 (ignoring the limit)" reward of the hidden quest was not used to upgrade Qing Gang Ying or Blade Master, but to upgrade those abilities that were already at full level.
For example, the four abilities of Magic-Resistant Constitution, Supreme Blade, Shadow-Spirit Constitution, and Devouring Core. These abilities were LV. MAX when first mastered, and there was no possibility of upgrading them with Paradise Coins or Soul Crystals.
The reward of the hidden quest gave these skills the possibility of breaking through the limit, so it was no wonder Su Xiao would be tempted.
Among these four skills, any one ability breaking through the limit would make Su Xiao's strength grow significantly.
It was still too early to think about this now. The difficulty of the hidden quest was not low, and the time was very tight, only 45 hours.
Moreover, the penalty for this mission was very strange. Imprisonment in the Abyss Cage for one hour, he didn't know what it meant.
According to normal circumstances, for a mission with such generous rewards, the penalty was generally forced execution, that is, death. And "Imprisonment in the Abyss Cage for one hour" could actually be equivalent to the terror of death.
He didn't want to try what "Imprisonment in the Abyss Cage for one hour" felt like, so he had to act as soon as possible.
Su Xiao took out an incendiary bomb from the storage space. Although the old priest's treasure vault was very tempting, that was a derived world faction shop certified by Reincarnation Paradise. Without the old priest opening it himself, it was impossible to enter there. The reason the old priest didn't take those things out before he died was mainly because those things belonged to the Holy Church. Taking them out to Su Xiao privately would cause Su Xiao endless trouble.
Just as Su Xiao walked out of the church, with a boom, flames surged out from the church's doors and windows, and the entire church began to burn fiercely.
"Farewell, Priest."
Su Xiao sat in the sports car by the street. Just as he was about to start the engine, the Reincarnation Paradise prompt appeared.
【Hint: Your Master Matou Kariya has died in battle. If you do not find a new Master, you will be forcibly returned to Reincarnation Paradise in two natural days.】
"Hm? Matou Kariya is dead?"
Su Xiao contacted Xiang Bubu Wang. The text message Xiang Bubu Wang sent back was that Matou Kariya died at the hands of the Heroic King.
"Sure enough, that guy went to hammer Tokiomi."
Starting the engine, Su Xiao drove the sports car lightning fast on the street. Now that the main quest had been completed, he didn't need to find a mage to act as a Master at all.
His remaining stay time in the Holy Grail world was 45 hours, and the forced return time was 2 natural days, which was 48 hours. So, whether there was a substitute was irrelevant.
Ten minutes later, Su Xiao drove to the southwest corner of Fuyuki City. As soon as he got out of the car, Xiang Bubu Wang ran out from a small alley between the houses.
Xiang Bubu Wang raised its head and led Su Xiao to run toward a residential area.
When Su Xiao arrived at the destination, he found that this was a small manor. A large hole had been smashed into the manor's wall.
Entering the manor through the hole in the wall, from a long distance, Su Xiao found Matou Kariya's head.
Matou Kariya's head was cut off and thrown aside by someone near a fountain pool, while Matou Kariya's headless corpse was lying in the pool.
Su Xiao grabbed Matou Kariya's headless corpse, and the weight in his hand was a bit wrong.
With a splash, Su Xiao dragged Matou Kariya's headless corpse out of the pool, and Matou Kariya's hand was clutching the throat of another corpse.
This corpse held by Matou Kariya died miserably, eyes wide open, mouth wide open.
It was no wonder this corpse had such an expression. At this time, Matou Kariya's other hand was tightly clutching the opponent's crotch. With Matou Kariya's strength, the deceased should have experienced the feeling of egg-shattering before death.
This corpse was none other than Tohsaka Tokiomi.
Su Xiao checked Tohsaka Tokiomi's corpse and found that the fatal wound was not on the throat and crotch, but someone stabbed him from behind, and his heart was pierced.
The hidden quest information had already changed. Current number of surviving Masters: 4 people, remaining number of Command Spells: 36.
As long as Su Xiao solved these four Masters, or made them consume all Command Spells, the hidden quest could be completed.
Of course, it was very difficult to find these 4 Masters within 45 hours. Although there was a temporary skill: Large-scale detection (twice), it also needed to be planned.
Without these two opportunities to track the location of the Masters, Su Xiao wanting to find the remaining 4 Masters within 45 hours was simply looking for a needle in a haystack. The difficulty of LV. 20 was not just for show.
These 4 Masters were: Emiya Kiritsugu, Kotomine Kirei, Waver Velvet, and Uryu Ryunosuke.
The first two were not easy to find, while the latter two were not difficult. Su Xiao prepared to find the latter two first, and then use the two tracking opportunities to track Emiya Kiritsugu and Kotomine Kirei.
"Xiang Bubu, does Fuyuki City have any abnormal smells? For example, a very heavy smell of blood, or some special fishy smell of the sea?"
Xiang Bubu Wang tilted its head and pondered.
"Woof."
"There is a fishy smell of the sea? A very special kind?"
"Woof."
"Track this kind of smell."
Su Xiao rode on Xiang Bubu Wang's back. Xiang Bubu Wang just wanted to move forward but suddenly stopped. It looked at Matou Sakura.
"Are you... going to leave me behind."
Matou Sakura's chest heaved violently, and her two small hands were tightly clenched.
"No, send you to a place."
Su Xiao grabbed Matou Sakura and placed her in front of him. Xiang Bubu Wang ran wildly.
"Where to?"
Matou Sakura's body curled into a ball. Su Xiao didn't speak.
Xiang Bubu Wang traveled through the city. Ten minutes later, it stopped in front of a house. Su Xiao walked toward the house, and Matou Sakura followed Su Xiao closely.
Su Xiao had been here before, and sensed a special aura in this house. That should be a young mage. Even if not a mage, there were many magic circuits in the other party's body. There were very, very few people like this in Fuyuki City.
Knock, knock, knock...
Su Xiao knocked on the house's door and took out a cardboard box, blocking it in front of him.
Behind the door first appeared slow footsteps, then a female voice came out.
"Who?"
Hearing this voice, Matou Sakura's pupils tightened, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
"There are letters and items for you."
"Letters, it's so late..."
"The sender is... let me see... it's Tohsaka Tokiomi."
"Is that so."
The door opened a crack. From the crack, a beautiful young woman could be seen. When the beautiful young woman opened the door, Su Xiao threw down the cardboard box in his hand, and their eyes met.
"Ah!"
A high-decibel scream spread. The beautiful young woman inside the door subconsciously closed the door. A powerful hand grabbed the edge of the door, easily pulling it open. The beautiful young woman inside the door staggered a few steps and was pulled out of the room.
"Rin! Run!"
The beautiful young woman rushed forward regardless of everything, hugging Su Xiao tightly, and let out a desperate shout. This shout scared a little girl in the room silly.
He didn't know where this beautiful young woman got the courage to actually "close combat" with Su Xiao. This might be a mother's responsibility.
Just as the beautiful young woman was about to open her mouth and bite Su Xiao's shoulder hard, her peripheral vision suddenly saw someone, which made her movements stop.
Under the dim street lamp by the street, a purple little girl was standing.
"Sakura..."
The beautiful young woman hung on Su Xiao, blankly looking at Matou Sakura not far away.
Matou Sakura's breathing was very rapid, her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't make any sound.
Su Xiao pulled the beautiful young woman off himself. Although the other party was wearing pajamas, her soft and mature body gave him a big benefit, but both of her daughters were present, so he couldn't stage an adult science education film.
The beautiful young woman's name was Tohsaka Aoi. "Tohsaka" was the surname she changed after marriage, so her identity was self-evident: Tohsaka Tokiomi's wife, Matou Kariya's childhood sweetheart, Matou Sakura's mother.
"Your daughter, take care of her yourself, I'm very busy."
As soon as Su Xiao finished speaking, Tohsaka Aoi ran quickly toward Matou Sakura, holding Matou Sakura tightly in her arms. When Tohsaka Tokiomi adopted Sakura out, she actually wanted to oppose it, but that was her husband's decision. In the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka Tokiomi's decision was everyone's decision.
Su Xiao turned over and rode on Xiang Bubu Wang's back. Xiang Bubu Wang carried Su Xiao and walked toward the distance. ===== CHAPTER 745 =====
