I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Germany, the full name of the Federal Republic of Germany, is located in central Europe, between 47-55° north latitude and 5-15° east longitude. Although its geographical location is northerly, because it is located in the cool westerly zone between the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern continental climate, the temperature difference is not large. It is a veritable city with no cold winters and no hot summers.

But this is only in general, not absolute. In the Bavarian Plain in southern Germany, especially the frontier of the Alps on the border with Austria. This is a mountainous area with an average altitude of more than 1,000 meters. The climate is complex and changeable. Because of the higher altitude, the temperature is colder than other places in Germany. Especially in January and February every year, there are continuous winds and snow, forming a season of ice for thousands of miles. Permafrost can be said to be the most uninhabitable area in Germany.

On the first day of February, the north wind was howling, the sky was covered with heavy snow, and the temperature reached a new low. In this bad weather that even the German soldiers guarding the border could not endure, two figures, one tall and one short, quietly passed through the borders of Austria and Germany. The border line came to a mountain col not far from the Zugspitze, the highest peak in Germany.

"Hi~ It's so cold. How long until we get here?"

The short man wore a hooded down jacket, a large mask on his face, and goggles on his head. He was tightly wrapped up, and he still shivered from time to time.

A tall man in similar attire replied with a smooth voice: "We have entered the territory of Einzbern, and the corner ahead is the boundary of the 'Winter City' barrier."

"'Winter City'. I haven't been back for almost 200 years." As the snowflakes flew, a woman of the same color as the sky and the earth appeared out of thin air, looking at the familiar scenery in front of her.

"Winter City", an ancient city with a history of more than 2,000 years, is the headquarters of the Einzbern family. Both Justessa and Irisviel were born here and have lived here for a long time.

"Have we finally arrived?" The short man pulled down his goggles, revealing dark blue forehead hair and dark blue eyes. "Mr. Kiritsugu, please stop here. Please leave the next thing to me, and I will definitely take care of you." The daughter, Miss Ilyasviel, was brought out along with the sample.”

A group of three people, Shinji Matou, Kiritsugu Emiya, and Yusitiza, set out from Japan, first smuggled to Southeast Asia, and then forged identities through underground channels to enter Europe. Then they changed their identities for the third time and came to Austria, quietly crossing the border. line and dive into the frontier mountains of the Alps.

After many twists and turns, it took half a month to sneak into Einzbern's base camp, "Winter City" without anyone noticing. There are two purposes for infiltrating:

First, find the samples needed for Aozaki oranges.

Second, bring out Ilyasviel, the daughter of Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel.

The day after the Holy Grail War ended, Emiya Kiritsugu wanted to go to the "Winter Castle" to bring back his daughter. However, Irisviel's condition was unstable and he couldn't live without people around him, so it only took two months. During this time, Kiritsugu and Irisviel worried about their daughter every day, fearing that she would be persecuted.

When they learned that Chengzi needed sample materials, the couple knew they could not delay any longer. After long deliberation, it was finally decided that Shinji, who possesses many Noble Phantasms, should accompany Kiritsugu to act together.

Kiritsugu is responsible for arranging the infiltration and escape plan, and Shinji is responsible for the specific implementation.

"Thank you for everything." Emiya Kiritsugu bowed his head deeply. No matter how powerful he was in the past, at this moment, he was just a father who was worried about his daughter.

"Do not worry."

Shinji took off his mask and gave Kiritsugu a confident smile. He liked the current Kiritsugu better than that cold-blooded killer, and was willing to do his best for him and Irisviel.

"Then I'm going."

A shadow enveloped him, turning into a gray cloak covering Shinji's body. At the same time, Yustisa returned to her spirit body and slipped into the cloak silently.

"Hades' cloak" is based on a helmet (Perseus also borrowed a helmet in the myth, I don't know why the moon was set as a cloak). It is the most invisible treasure in Greek mythology. Legend has it that it can be concealed Beyond the gods. In the past, due to insufficient magic power, Shinji was unable to exert the effect of the cloak. After taking the golden apple, the quality and quantity of his magic power increased significantly, and he could finally use this treasure without any scruples. . In the past, due to insufficient magic power, Shinji was unable to exert the effect of the cloak. After taking the golden apple, the quality and quantity of his magic power increased significantly, and he could finally use this treasure without any scruples.

The body disappeared, the breath disappeared, the voice disappeared, the magic reaction was completely blocked, and there was no trace except the footsteps left on the snow. This is also the only flaw of the cloak, it cannot eliminate the entity. But this flaw has been compensated to a certain extent by the use of another Noble Phantasm, Feather Shoes. The special effect of feather shoes is flying, and it is no longer a problem to walk on the snow without leaving a trace.

After entering a completely invisible state, Shinji did not rush into the barrier rashly, but walked back and forth along the boundary of the barrier, looking for nodes and gaps.

The era of gods has long gone. Now is the era of humans. The top experts and technologies of humans are no worse than the gods. To worship the past and downgrade the present is not only meaningless, but also seeking death. Shinji dare not forget Scathach's sincere teachings.

The Einzbern family ran the "Winter City" in 2000. Even Justeza and Emiya Kiritsugu didn't know how many layers of barriers and how many kinds of magic mechanisms were set up here. In order to ensure the success of the infiltration, he must Be careful.

The larger the barrier coverage, the more nodes are needed and the easier it is to create gaps. This is the gap that Shen Er is looking for.

After Justisa's calculations and fifteen minutes of searching, Shen Er finally found this gap in the middle of a cliff, which is difficult for apes to climb. The location that is difficult for humans to reach is not a problem for Shen Er. , with the help of feather shoes, Shen Er slipped into the barrier silently like a bat. Both his movements and consciousness were comparable to those of professional assassins.

If there is one, there are two, and if there are two, there are three. With the experience of breaking through the first level of barrier, the subsequent infiltration operations will become smoother and smoother. After breaking through more than twenty layers of barriers, Shinji saw the white castle complex between the mountains.

The style of the castle is similar to the old castle on the outskirts of Fuyuki City, with white exterior walls and tall spires, but it is larger in scale and has a longer history.

Shenji stopped by a cedar tree and silently stared at the main entrance of the "Winter City".

"How about it?"

Intangible ideas are conveyed through contracts.

"No, there are no blind spots or gaps here."

"As expected, if there is a gap, I have to think carefully about whether it is a trap."

"what to do?"

"We can only bet on the performance of Hades's cloak. If we are unlucky and are discovered, we will rob them by force. For today, I brought all the treasures with me. I also want to see, Is the Einzbern family really not good at fighting?"

"Don't make too much of a fuss. This is the place where I was born after all."

"What I'm saying is that it's actually unlikely that they'll be discovered. Even if they are discovered, I will be careful as long as they don't go too far."

"Get ready for action. According to Emiya Kiritsugu, the castle belonging to them is on the far edge on the right, and that should be it."

"No, we're not going there."

The unimpeded exchange of ideas suddenly paused.

"Where to go?"

"The tomb of artificial humans, the garbage dump of the Einzbern family, where Ilia was most likely dumped."

PS: Shinji’s infiltration can refer to the scene in the “Fatezero” animation where Hassan infiltrates Tokiomi’s mansion in Tosaka. I closed my eyes while spinning and jumping. It was so cool.

PS2: Please bring your own stomach medicine when feeding glass slag in the next chapter.
