I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Be it Britain or Ireland, they are both island countries, isolated overseas. But what is interesting is that both countries are more related to forests than to the ocean. The Druids who became popular all over the world in later generations are the most important inheritance in Celtic culture, and their origins come from the forest.

To this day, both countries still maintain a large amount of forest area. Taking the UK as an example, there are 15 national forest parks on 244,100 square kilometers of land including inland waters, and lush vegetation can be seen everywhere.

The vast green space makes the British climate pleasant and the British scenery beautiful, but it also provides a natural hiding place for many invisible things.

In the center of the connecting line starting from Fuhailin and ending at Fuhailin's Son, there is such a forest. The vegetation is dense and prosperous. Even in late autumn and winter, it is still full of green - no, it is It was still green a few minutes ago, but now all the green has disappeared along with the life of the earth, leaving only a dry and desolate body.

In the center of this forest that suddenly withered from its peak, there were two people, both dressed in black and tall. Surprisingly, these two men, who are considered burly among Westerners, both have Eastern faces.

The older one has shawl-long hair, and there is a ferocious and twisted scar diagonally above his left eye. His face is solemn, and his hands hang naturally, exuding an amazing sense of oppression. Just looking at it will make you feel suffocated.

The slightly younger one has short, capable hair and strong lines. He has one hand behind his back and one hand resting on the big tree next to him. Contrary to the former, he did not reveal the slightest breath, and his expression was not that serious. However, the power of the flickering magic power fluctuations on his body and the complicated patterns surrounding him were no less powerful than those of his companions.

After an unknown amount of time, he exhaled, tightened his hand on the tree, and patted it hard.

The next moment, the man's palm sank into the tree trunk, completely sinking into it.

"Successful, the magic power has been sent to Fuyuki. Next, we have to see whether the Great Holy Grail will change as Hatteras expected."

"Where's Hatreth?" the long-haired man asked. His voice was very similar to that of the short-haired man. If you don't see the picture and just listen to the sound, you may even think that there is only one person here.

"As expected, he's dead."

The companion's answer caused a trace of regret to appear on the long-haired man's face.

"It's a pity that there is one less person who is qualified to glimpse into the abyss of the devil. The heart stolen by the goblin could not save his life."

"It's up to you." The short-haired man was indifferent. "When the princess appeared, I already reminded him and asked him to leave as quickly as possible, but what about him? He thought he had a follower and had the special characteristics of a 'swap', so he ignored it. My warning."

"Before you say something like this, please speak against yourself. The man's solemn face was a bit distressed. "Thinking about what you have done before, if it were me, I wouldn't dare to believe your words too much, at least I wouldn't believe them all. . "

"Humph, that's a pity. It's rare that I tell the truth, but no one believes me."

The short-haired man taunted and grinned with a charming smile.

The long-haired man obviously knew his companion's bad character, so he stopped talking and changed the topic.

"Is that True Ancestor princess really so scary that the 'Changer' and the heroic spirit don't even have a chance to escape?"

"It is indeed that scary, no, it is more terrifying than you think. You have transcended the limit of lifespan, and you can be considered well-informed, but after all, you have never experienced any era of vampires, and you don't know that she ended the vampire rule. How powerful is she? Compared with her, the servants and the 'swap' are as fragile as babies."

"That's why you want to get her power?"

"Exactly, that's why I want to get her power and become an immortal and eternal existence."

"Immortal, eternal, meaningless."

The short-haired man is not angry either: "That's just for you. Different people pursue different things, and the 'root' you pursue is meaningless to me. But it is precisely because of our different pursuits that you and I can cooperate, otherwise one of us will definitely One is about to fall into a deep sleep.”

"Indeed."

"Let's go, there's no need to stay here any longer. Hatreth is dead and the servants haven't gotten it. Half of the plan this time has failed."

"However, the crucial half was successful. The Great Holy Grail received an excessive amount of magic power, and the rules of the Holy Grail War will inevitably change. In this way, you may also be qualified to summon a Servant."

Hearing this guess, the short-haired man smiled even more happily:

"You really have to thank Hartreth. If it wasn't his final sacrifice, the effect wouldn't be so good."

"This is also the result of your deliberate induction. From the moment Hartres chose not to leave, you foresaw that something like this would happen. That's why you asked me to use a barrier to shield the 'True Red Fruit' Breath, and release the fruit at the critical moment, in order to attract everyone's attention, so that you have enough time to activate the technique of extracting spiritual veins and transferring magic power."

"No, no, you really said it wrong this time. No matter what, I can't do that. If I had, Hartreth wouldn't have died. Whether as an assistant in magic or considering I don't want him to die even if the Servant's fighting power is reduced. But his death is inevitable, and we can only choose to make use of all this. Don't forget, you and I both have reasons that cannot be compromised. You are for the 'root' , for the princess, the power of the Great Holy Grail is necessary!"

The short-haired man said decisively, his tone was so firm, and upon hearing his words, the long-haired man's expression returned to solemnity.

"Let me confirm for the last time, are you sure that the 'Great Holy Grail' can lead to the 'root'?"

"Then I will answer you one last time. The father of this body is the supervisor of this ritual, and has supervised the ceremony twice. The teacher of this body is a direct descendant of one of the founders of this ritual. Compared with Hatreth Investigation, I believe their words more. To say the least, even if you can't, it will be much easier for you to deal with that woman if you have a servant."

"You'd better not lie to me, Mitchel Roa Fardanyan. Otherwise, even if your soul is immortal, I will have a way to put you into eternal sleep."

"I believe you have such an ability. I haven't been discovered by the princess since I woke up, just because your barrier blocked the world's records——"

Before he finished speaking, the short-haired man named Roa suddenly stepped aside.

Almost at the same time, several sharp objects flashing with cold light passed past the man's body and inserted into the dead tree nearby.

Immediately afterwards, the dead tree exploded as if someone had installed explosives, and was blown apart together with the cold light. The only thing intact was the handle that was the point of force.

Through this handle, Roa successfully identified the type of throwing prop.

"Black Key? People from the church?"

The next second, a fire lit up in the darkness, a burning flame.

The flames illuminated the figure hiding in the dark. The girl was wearing black monastic clothes, short sky-blue hair and eyes. The hatred and hatred on her face was more intense than the flames in her hands.

The girl clenched her teeth, even drawing blood. The blood seeped out from the gaps in her teeth with a murderous sound.

"Finally found you, Roa!!!"

PS: Don’t doubt, Roa has this ability. He himself is a master at playing with spiritual veins. Things he has done include but are not limited to sacrificing cities, and connecting with spiritual veins for super-speed recovery. As a result, every time Elquet kills him, he is destroyed along with the nearby earth. This shows his accomplishments in this area. And it is not difficult to see from the conversation that he has been preparing for the Holy Grail for a long time. As for why he is eyeing the Holy Grail, take your time and take your time.
