Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen

While walking, Roland was thinking wildly in his mind. The experience brought by self-discipline allowed him to find a sense of direction on the way to work even with his eyes closed.

Today's result is quite satisfactory, and it is worth taking the risk to meet Matou Zouken. As Roland expected, for the already distorted old bug, this guy prefers to fight to the death without running out of ammunition and food. Standing in the audience as a spectator, I don't mind giving some help to cause unnecessary influence and get more fun.

Although he has become corrupted, it may be because of this reason that Matou Zouken is much more straightforward about this simple exchange of benefits.

At the very beginning, Roland was hesitant to try to make Matou Zouyan into a Qiling. After all, from experience, this guy has a much higher success rate than Yusheng Ryunosuke. See kill, it is very possible to do this.

However, considering that Matou Zouken perfectly interpreted the centipede's methods of death but not stiffness in the original work, Roland still gave up on this point. Without the Great Holy Grail to attract the other party to come in person, Roland could not even Determine whether the other party is just a bug clone, or hide the life-saving bug in the distance.

In this case, the gain outweighs the loss. Without certainty, it would not be a good experience to be an enemy of Matou Zouken. Moreover, if this guy is forced to use the loser's food It would be too embarrassing to reverse time.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. Although the advantage of the prophet was reduced, the trace of the Qiling was about to come out.

Judging from the influence of Qi Ling, this guy's request for boarding objects should at least have magical power, and there is a high probability that it is related to the Holy Grail.

So, who will the unknown Qiling be on?

Fuyuki City has already checked it out. Matou, Tohsaka, and Liudong Temple have not noticed any traces of Qi Ling. After excluding these targets, the remaining range is undoubtedly much smaller.

The Great Holy Grail hidden in the large underground cavity, Danik who participated in the Fourth World War, and Einzbern who did not summon Amakusa even though it was the world line of the Holy Grail War.

Roland showed a dark expression, watching the nails on his hands start to grow naturally again.

——

In the uninhabited mountains, the ancient castle that was closed by ice and snow was liberated from the snow for a long time.

Although the sky has not yet cleared, the milky white that is shimmering like a snow wash is much brighter than the dim and blurry snowy day.

In this land where there are neither birds nor green trees, even the change of light is a rare beauty for the occupants.

But Emiya Kiritsugu didn't intend to appreciate it, he sat quietly at the table, looking at the information sent by the right-hand assistant in front of him.

"The masters of the Holy Grail War have basically been determined."

After a brief glance, he began to summarize in as simple words as possible.

"The Tohsaka family is still the same. It is a tricky goal to always have an excellent magician as the master, but it is worth noting that a few years ago, he accepted a disciple sent from the Holy Church, and the other party also got After the Command Seal, he broke with him, although that is the case, but from the experience point of view, I think he is a more dangerous target than Tohsaka Tokiomi."

After finishing speaking on his own, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't get any response, he sighed helplessly, and looked towards the French windows in the hall.

A young woman who looked to be in her twenties stood quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The exquisite beauty like a doll, including lustrous hair and fair skin, coupled with the magnificent red eyes like jewels, is almost like an elf who is not in the world.

Even wearing a pure white dress with a single tone that is difficult to control, without any accessories, can't conceal her natural extravagance.

Princess of Einzbern, until now, Emiya Kiritsugu also felt that this title was very suitable for her.

It would be even better if the other party could get rid of that character of being offline from time to time.

"Miss Irisviel? Are you listening?"

"Yes, and I told you, Kiritsugu, just call me Irisviel, we are friends."

The white elf responded with an ethereal voice, but his eyes were still firmly locked out of the floor-to-ceiling windows.

"Really? Although I am the real master, after all, you have to attract firepower on the bright side, so it's better to pay more attention."

Although they have been together for a while, Emiya Kiritsugu still thinks that the two are just collaborators, not so-called friends. As for the deeper relationship, it is just an unrealistic longing in his heart. .

In the final analysis, a person like him should not expect happiness, especially when he has found the ultimate salvation.

Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head, withdrew his redundant thoughts, and continued to explain the Master's information.

"The Matou family forcibly pushed out a person who failed in the succession as the master. Don't pay attention to this half-baked person. The rest is the most troublesome guy."

Sliding the mouse lightly, looking at the two photos in the data that clearly had a gap of more than sixty years, but the appearance of the subject had not changed at all, Emiya Kiritsugu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Danick Preston Yog Domirenia, a participant in the third Holy Grail War, although he failed, he retreated unscathed. He has achieved a color-level evaluation many years ago, and during these years, He launched a variety of soul-related achievements, and single-handedly created the Thousand Worlds Tree family."

"The third time, what is his current age?"

"It's almost a hundred years old. Since the end of the last Holy Grail War, this guy has published many papers on the soul in the clock tower, which has received extremely high praise. Taking advantage of this trend, the Thousand Worlds Tree family he founded It also began to expand aggressively, as long as it is a down-and-out magician, most of them will come."

"Although it's not scary at the moment, it's already a dreadful force in the Clock Tower. In two hundred years, the Thousand Boundary Tree may even become a big family comparable to the monarch."

Hearing this explosive news, Irisviel also recovered slightly, and turned to look at Emiya Kiritsugu.

"It shouldn't be so easy to expand a rigid place like the clock tower."

"Yes," Emiya Kiritsugu's expression became much more solemn, "This is also the real tricky part of this man, although he has a very high achievement in magic, he is more like a politician, he just needs to find an excuse , he will play it wantonly, turn black and white, use it to seek benefits, and cooperate with his own strength and means, and several small families have been eaten up by the expansion of the Thousand Boundary Tree."

Speaking of this, Emiya Kiritsugu's eyes are also very complicated, "Although Danik is a magician, he has a good understanding of human nature and various dark methods. He claims to be a nobleman, but he has no bottom line. This guy and I are very compatible. , obviously heard that he was silent in the study of a formal dress more than ten years ago, and it was a lot of waste."

Pausing on this line of text, Emiya Kiritsugu tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, making a low voice.

"Looking at it now, this is just a proof that Danik has started preparations for the Fourth Holy Grail War. That guy must have gained something extraordinary in the last round to be so persistent. He already has the means to prolong his life, but He still has to fight in person, but fortunately, he already has more troubles."

"What does it mean?"

Irisviel tilted her head, and looked at Emiya Kiritsugu suspiciously.

"The clock tower's participation quota this time was originally reserved by the monarch of the El-Melloi family."

"Is that El-Mello of Minerals?"

"That's right," said Emiya Kiritsugu with a smile on his face, "For a place in the Far East Magic Contest, it is impossible for the El-Melloi family to entangle with a troublesome existence like Danik , but obviously, that child prodigy named Kenneth didn’t think so.”

"I guess he couldn't swallow this breath. He circumvented the rules of the Magic Association and forcibly bought an extra spot. He must be ready to compete with Danic."
