Chapter 157

"Why help me?"

On the other side, Emiya Kiritsugu, who had successfully retreated, found Kariya Matou and asked about his purpose.

He didn't think the other party was just on a whim to help Artoria out of the siege.

"I want to form an alliance with you."

Kariya Matou said his purpose with a gloomy face, as if enduring something.

"Why do you suddenly want to form an alliance with me?"

Emiya Kiritsugu also saw that Kariya Matou was not right, but he didn't pursue the question.

He would rather investigate such things himself.

"... I want you to help me kill Feng Xi."

Kariya Matou said slowly.

"What?"

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't understand Kariya Matou's reason.

There shouldn't be any hatred between Feng Xi and Kariya Matou.

Could it be because Feng Xi killed Matou Zouken?

But are Kariya Matou and Matou Zouken that close?

Emiya Kiritsugu: "May I know the reason?"

"..."

Kariya Matou remained silent about this.

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Emiya Kiritsugu also fell silent.

After thinking for a moment, he agreed.

After all, in his current situation, he really needed an ally.

Tonight, the Heroic Spirit Emiya being able to solve Diarmuid even surprised him.

It can only be said that Diarmuid's luck was really too bad.

As usual, Emiya Kiritsugu took out a self-imposed command scroll and signed it together with Kariya Matou.

Kariya Matou checked it several times, fearing he would be pitted by Emiya Kiritsugu.

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't care about this either.

And all of this was seen by Hassan of the Hundred Faces in the dark.

Feng Xi had let Hassan of the Hundred Faces watch him in the dark since nightfall.

Hearing the news passed back by Hassan of the Hundred Faces, Feng Xi was also stunned.

Like Emiya Kiritsugu, he was also wondering where he had offended Kariya Matou.

Could it be that Kariya Matou really wants to avenge Matou Zouken?

At the same time, he was also speechless about Waver and the others.

They don't know how to play; three against one and they still lost, and one was killed by the opponent.

The key is that the opponent wasn't Artoria.

It can only be said that the Heroic Spirit Emiya is worthy of being the man favored by the Holy Grail.

The next day.

【Ding! The quiz will start in ten minutes; please prepare, group members.】

【Ding! New group member "Old Bug" has joined the group chat.】

Everyone: "!!!"

Wasn't this old guy's home raided by Feng Xi and Zhang Jiao? How is he still not dead?

Emiya Kiritsugu suddenly realized.

Good, the case is solved.

No wonder Kariya Matou suddenly wanted to deal with Feng Xi; it must have something to do with the Old Bug.

It's just that I don't know what handle the Old Bug has on him.

Old Bug: "Hehehe, Kariya, is this the group you were talking about?"

Feng Xi: "Old Bug, you actually didn't die."

Damn Murphy's Law.

He felt before that the Old Bug died too simply and was worried that he hadn't removed the roots; now it has indeed come true.

Feng Xi: "But how did he escape the disaster back then?"

Zhang Jiao thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid that before we made a move, he had already transferred his life-bug to another place."

Feng Xi: "Hmm, it does fit the Old Bug's style."

At the same time, he decided in his heart not to hide his skills today and definitely not give the Old Bug any chance to get a chest.

Old Bug: "You are indeed in this group too."

Old Bug: "Hehe, brat, just wait for the old man; I will avenge this grudge sooner or later."

Feng Xi: "Hmph, bring it on."

Feng Xi: "I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time."

Old Bug: "Without that Heroic Spirit, you brat are nothing."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "There's also me, Matou Zouken."

Old Bug: "What a pity, Tokiomi; I originally thought our good relationship could be maintained."

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "NEVER, EVER, POSSIBLE!"

Kayneth: "Hmph, has the Matou family fallen to such a point?"

Old Bug: "Lord El-Melloi, why so unfriendly? We shouldn't have any intersection."

Feng Xi: "Don't worry, you won't find many people in this group who are good to you."

Feng Xi: "Oh, Gilles de Rais doesn't count."

Gilles de Rais: "Ah! Feng Xi, kill you!"

【Ding! The first question is about to begin!】

【This question is a three-stage competitive multiple-choice question.】

【The video will successively provide three multiple-choice questions, each with 5 minutes to answer; group members can all rush to answer.】

【Correct answers get 3 Saint Quartz, wrong answers deduct 1 Saint Quartz; if no one answers correctly within 5 minutes, it counts as void.】

【This question uses an elimination system; only those who answer the first question correctly can proceed to the second question, and so on.】

【If everyone is eliminated, the remaining questions will all be void.】

【If you answer 2 questions correctly in a row, you can get 1 extra Saint Quartz; if you answer 3 questions correctly in a row, you can get 3 extra Saint Quartz.】

Waver: "New rules again?"

Iskandar: "Haha, an elimination system? This is even more competitive."

Kayneth: "If everyone gets the first question right, today's quiz can be considered a steady win."

Feng Xi: "It's not that easy; the questions will probably get harder and harder."

Waver: "That's right; that's the only way to match the rewards for this question."

【Please pay attention to the video below.】

【Video starts.】

【In the warehouse of the Emiya residence, Irisviel is lying on a magic circle, her face pale, looking very weak.】

【"You came to see me; thank you."】

【Irisviel looked at Emiya Kiritsugu who came to her side and smiled: "This is the final moment; I must return it to you."】

【Immediately, a white light flashed on Irisviel's body, and Avalon slowly floated out from her body.】

【Emiya Kiritsugu took Avalon, his expression somewhat gloomy.】

【"You need it now; it will definitely come in handy in the final battle."】

【Irisviel smiled: "Thank you, I am very happy."】

【"The person I like is loved by another, and I have spent 9 years with my husband and daughter."】
