Chapter 747: Castle

The tiles landed. Waver swallowed his saliva. Although the man on the roof was his enemy, Waver couldn't help but have an idea, that he also wanted to become such a person, domineering in every word and action, saying one thing and meaning another.

Not to mention Waver's thoughts, the Conqueror King on the side really wanted to agree to Su Xiao's proposal. The two sides looked like they were confronting each other, but in reality, it was not the case. His Master was in danger of life at any time. He had witnessed Su Xiao's abnormal speed once. Under that kind of speed, even if he summoned Ionioi Hetairoi, he couldn't protect his Master's life.

"Kid, do you believe me? Believe me, Conqueror King Iskandar."

The Conqueror King stared at Waver. Waver gently touched the Command Spells on the back of his hand. This was the only means he had to control the Conqueror King.

"I... believe you."

"Hahaha."

The Conqueror King looked up and laughed, laughing very heroically.

"Berserker, we can consume three Command Spells, but what guarantee do you have that after my side consumes three Command Spells, you won't suddenly rise up and kill."

The Conqueror King considered very comprehensively. If Waver used up three Command Spells and Su Xiao made a move, they could be said to have lost everything.

"You have no choice. Just like I said before, you have already lost, Conqueror King."

Su Xiao sheathed Zhan Long Shan, expressing his stance appropriately.

"Kid, use the Command Spells, just like he said, we have no choice."

"But..."

Waver was a bit hesitant.

"Don't talk nonsense, give you 20 seconds to consider, if you don't agree, I'll chop you."

Su Xiao suddenly spoke, and "Queen" Waver was startled.

"O... okay."

Waver raised his arm.

"I use the power of the Command Spell, Alexander the Great · Iskandar, you are not allowed to pat my shoulder again."

"I use the power of the Command Spell, Alexander the Great · Iskandar, you must achieve victory in the Holy Grail War."

"I use the power of the Command Spell, Alexander the Great · Iskandar, you must..."

Waver used the first two Command Spells quite smoothly, but he got stuck on the third one. He really couldn't think of what to say.

"You must... survive in this Holy Grail War!"

Three Command Spells were consumed. Waver's shoulders drooped, as if he had used up all his strength.

"This should be fine, right? Damn it, why are there such strange requirements."

Waver looked up at Su Xiao, but the roof was already empty.

"He left?"

"Yes, the moment you lowered your head."

"That's good."

Waver smiled. He finally sent away this god of killing.

"However... kid."

The Conqueror King looked up.

"What's wrong?"

"What about this roof?"

"Huh?"

Waver blankly looked at the messy roof. A broken tile slid down from the roof.

Su Xiao jumped on the houses. Now there were two Masters left to solve. The locations of these two Masters didn't need to be specifically searched for; using the tracking function was enough.

After jumping on the roof for a few minutes, Su Xiao stopped. Not long after, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang joined him.

"Start large-scale detection."

【Large-scale detection (Active) has been activated.】

【Randomly detecting Masters holding Command Spells...】

【Remaining Masters holding Command Spells: 2 people, randomly extracting...】

【Detection successful, successfully detected Emiya Kiritsugu's location, has sent the other party's real-time coordinates to Hunter's Reincarnation Brand, remaining tracking time 9 minutes 59 seconds.】

Light flickered in Su Xiao's eyes. A translucent screen appeared in front of him. The content on the screen was a map of 100,000 square kilometers with Su Xiao as the center point. Fuyuki City was just a small piece of it.

On the map, a red dot flickered, roughly located in the southwest corner of Fuyuki City.

Su Xiao zoomed in on the map, and the red dot's location was clearer.

"Actually here, it's really unexpected."

Before, Su Xiao thought Emiya Kiritsugu had already moved far away from Fuyuki City and was hiding in other cities near Fuyuki City.

Now it seemed that was not the case. Emiya Kiritsugu not only didn't move far away from Fuyuki City, but instead stayed in the Einzbern family's castle.

As one of the three major mage families, the castle where the Einzbern family lived was a landmark building in Fuyuki City, the reason being that there was another castle in the world with a similarity of over 95% to this castle, also belonging to the Einzbern family.

There were two Einzbern family castles. The original site was in Germany, and this one in Fuyuki City was built by forging the one in Germany.

Moreover, there were many mechanisms in the Einzbern family's castle. Not to mention breaking into it, even getting close to that vicinity was dangerous.

According to the direction indicated by the map, Su Xiao rode Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang to the castle where Emiya Kiritsugu was.

In the southwest corner of Fuyuki City, a European-style castle stood here. The area of this castle was not large, but the layout was reasonable. A few cherry blossom trees in the courtyard gave this majestic castle a bit of vitality.

The breeze blew, and a few cherry blossom trees in the castle courtyard rustled. Pink petals drifted with the wind.

A few maids dressed as nuns were cleaning up the petals in the courtyard. Their skin was fair and tender, breakable by a touch, and every one of them was an impeccable beauty.

To be precise, these maids were not humans. They were homunculi manufactured by the Einzbern family, usually responsible for housework and taking care of the daily life of the Einzbern family members. But once there was an external enemy invading, they would pick up weapons and become warriors who were not weak.

"Illya, after the courtyard is cleaned, prepare lunch in advance. Today's lunch must be sumptuous."

"Hm."

"Are the ingredients fresh?"

"Very fresh, delivered two hours ago."

"What about safety?"

"No problem, I tasted it myself."

"That's good."

A few maids divided the work among themselves. They were completely loyal to the Einzbern family. As long as the Einzbern family gave an order, even if they were asked to die, they wouldn't have a moment of hesitation.

When a few maids were chatting, a mechanical eye the size of a dragon eye fell above the castle. Maid Illya turned to look in the direction of the castle, observing for a long time without finding anything abnormal.

In a forest one kilometer away from the castle, on a towering ancient tree, this ancient tree was tens of meters high, and it was unknown how many years it had been growing.

Under the ancient tree, a brown bear bleeding from seven orifices lay on the ground, its body twitching from time to time.

This brown bear was not an ordinary creature, but a creature modified by alchemy. If

High up in the towering ancient tree, Su Xiao mounted the Spider Queen on a tree fork, checking the state of the magazine and the firearm.

Infiltrating the castle from the front was not a wise choice; not to mention the castle was filled with traps, the homunculus maids plus Saber alone were not easy to break through.

Su Xiao chose to resolve Emiya Kiritsugu through sniping. Although Emiya Kiritsugu was a mage, the Spider Queen could beat a Heroic Spirit half to death, let alone snipe a Master. As long as one shot hit, Emiya Kiritsugu would burst open like a stepped-on tomato.

It sounded easy, but in reality, it was not.

First, Su Xiao had to determine Emiya Kiritsugu's location within the castle; this would be detected by the Apostle Eye above the castle.

That was not the main point; the point was that Saber was also inside the castle. With Saber's A-rank Intuition, as soon as the Apostle Eye began scanning the castle, Saber would immediately notice and take corresponding countermeasures.

Considering that Saber and Emiya Kiritsugu's compatibility was severely poor, their distance during non-combat periods should not be too close. That is to say, the time it would take for Saber to notice the hostility from Su Xiao and rush to Emiya Kiritsugu's side would be roughly 2 to 7 seconds.

Therefore, Su Xiao had to lock onto the target with the scope the moment the Apostle Eye detected Emiya Kiritsugu; he would have roughly 3 to 7 shots of opportunity.
