Start a Core Pod Chapter 742

Chapter 742 Assault

To be honest, it is not easy to find the flow of spiritual veins in an unfamiliar place. Fortunately, Duanmu Huai and Ma Xiu had not gained anything at Singularity F before.

 “Is this the Great Holy Grail?”

 “That's what the blue-haired guy said back then.”

That's right, Duanmu Huai and Matthew are now standing with Medea in front of the Great Holy Grail in a cave near Fuyuki City. When they were at Singularity Point F, the blue-haired man brought them here to find SABER. According to that According to Lan Mao, this is the gathering point of Fuyuki's spiritual veins and the location of the Great Holy Grail. To put it simply, it's like a magic reactor... at least that's what Duanmuhuai understands.

 Duanmu Huai knows nothing about the magic theory of this world, and Matthew is not very proficient, but fortunately Medea is here - this CASTER is not fake.

Medea frowned and looked at the large Holy Grail in front of her carefully, showing a troubled expression.

"Any questions?"

"I'm sorry, MASTER. Although I can't say for sure, I always feel like there's something wrong with this Great Holy Grail. It's that kind of magic that's full of disaster... Although I don't know how the Great Holy Grail was originally created, but It shouldn't be like this.”

“Speaking of which, the Holy Grail in SABER's body that we killed at Singularity F was not the Holy Grail either.”

Duanmuhuai also recalled that at Singularity Point F, after he killed SABER, a golden crystal appeared in the opponent's body, which was then taken away by Leif. According to Leif, that thing seems to be the Holy Grail he gave to SABER - why is it called the Holy Grail? That thing doesn't look like a cup at all.

“But having said that, there is not even a gatekeeper in this place, which is indeed beyond my expectation.”

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he looked around. When they decided to come here at the beginning, Duanmuhuai was still looking forward to a big battle. After all, isn't this Great Holy Grail the magic reactor of the Holy Grail War? So if you think about it in Duanmuhuai, this place must be full of traps and heavily guarded.

 As a result, except for the illusion barrier at the entrance of the cave, no ghosts could be seen.

 Just leave this thing alone?

“Judging from the situation at Singularity Point F, there must be something wrong with this Great Holy Grail.”

Ma Xiu also nodded.

“But it's a pity that we are not related parties...”

"We don't understand, so let's find someone who does... I remember that the blue-haired man seemed to have said that this Holy Grail system was made by three magicians?"

“Ah, yes, I remember it very clearly. The Tosaka family provided the land, the Matou family developed the Command Seal, and the Einzbern family created the Holy Grail system.”

“Then the Einzbern family will definitely send people for this Holy Grail War, so just ask the rightful owner directly. We can't guess the outcome here.”

Duanmuhuai shook his head, and then made a gesture to Medea.

“Okay, thank you for your hard work, Medea. Next, please follow the spiritual veins and take us to find those magicians' workshops.”

"yes!"

To be honest, Duanmu Huai doesn't know anything about this world at all. He has never heard of magicians, the Holy Grail War, or anything like this or that. But it doesn't matter, just transform it according to the standards of the Inquisition.

 To put it bluntly, it is a group of psykers who can use magic who try to open a passage to the subspace through a heretical ritual called the Holy Grail War.

That's easy to say, as a judge, it is simply your bounden duty to eliminate heretics!

 So, Duanmu Huai has only one thing to do.

 “Open the door, Inquisition!”

With the roar, Duanmuhuai kicked open the closed door like an angry bull and rushed into the silent bungalow in front of him. Although this bungalow was wrapped in many magic barriers, Duanmuhuai didn't care about this. These mere barriers were basically lifted in front of Medea, and then Duanmuhuai rushed in directly.

 “Damn heretics, in the name of the Inquisition... where are the people?”

Duanmu Huai held the war hammer and looked at the empty hall.

 Why is there no one around here?

 Could it be that he knew he was coming and ran away?

But it doesn't matter, if you can run away as a monk, can you run away from the temple?

“Medea, you said before that you felt the evil magical atmosphere in this house, right?”

 “Yes, MASTER.”

"Where?"

 “Just down there.”

 “Take us to see it.”

"yes."

 Led by Medea, the three of them broke through the barriers and door locks in the house, went down the stairs, and then came to a dark basement.

 “Ugh…what does this smell like…”

 Pushing open the door and walking in, Ma Xiu immediately covered her nose, while Medea also hid behind Duanmu Huai.

 “This smell...is really unclean and evil...”

Duanmu Huai said nothing, then reached out his hand and turned on the light switch next to him.

 “Hey——!”

 The next moment, the scene in front of them made both Matthew and Medea turn pale.

 In this cold basement, countless weird-shaped bugs were desperately crawling around, forming a terrifying shape like a swimming pool filled with bugs.

 “MASTER! There's someone inside!”

At this time, Ma Xiu seemed to see something and hurriedly stretched out his hand to point into the insect swarm. Duanmuhuai turned around and saw a little girl rising and falling among the insect swarm, as if she was formed by the insects. The waves are sweeping.

"snort!"

Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai's face darkened, and then the aura of fear suddenly unfolded. The next moment, the insects suddenly let out a shrill scream, and then hurriedly retreated, trying to crawl back into the cave on the nearby wall, but Duanmuhuai With just a wave of his hand, dark flames instantly erupted, swallowing up all the insects in front of him and completely destroying them.

 Subsequently, Duanmuhuai came to the girl and looked at her carefully.

The girl in front of her had dull eyes. If her chest hadn't risen slightly, she might have been thought to have died. Duanmu Huai caught her. The girl's petite body was as big as a toy Barbie doll in Duanmu Huai's palm. Even when she looked at Duanmu Huai in front of her, she didn't seem to have any emotional fluctuations.

 “Medea, look at her condition.”

 “Okay, MASTER.”

Hearing Duanmuhuai's order, Medea also hurriedly came to the girl's side and inspected her carefully. Then Medea's expression became more and more gloomy.

“Really, I didn't expect that there would be something like this...Although I had thought about it when I first noticed the breath, it was too...”

"Is there any problem?" "Yes, MASTER, although I don't know who it is, the other person is trying to change the body of the girl in front of me, change her body, and transplant those bugs into her body..."

 “Oh...it is indeed a heresy.”

Duanmu Huai's face turned gloomy.

 “Is there any way to save her?”

“Of course it's no problem! Just use my Noble Phantasm to cure her!”

 “Then use it.”

"yes!"

After getting Duanmuhuai's permission, Medea also stood up and raised the staff in her hand.

“It is the design of the soul. With my lifeline, I order recovery, return, and traceability—PainBreaker!”

As Medea raised the staff in her hand, a ray of light shone on the girl the next moment. Although there seemed to be no special changes on the surface, it could be seen that the girl's originally dull eyes gradually closed, and His weak breathing became much calmer.

 “What now? MASTER?”

Matthew looked at the sleeping girl in front of him worriedly and asked.

“Well… Anyway, let's find a place to settle her down first. As for here…”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai glanced around, then he stretched out his hand, took out a disk-like thing from behind, and threw it on the ground.

 “Leave it to Om Messiah.”

After saying this, Duanmu Huai took the others and turned around to leave the dilapidated mansion.

About two hours after Duanmuhuai and his party left the mansion, they saw a skinny old man walking back slowly along the ramp with a cane. When he saw the ruins of the mansion in front of him that looked like it had been forcibly demolished, the old man's eyes widened in surprise.

"Wait, what's going on? Why is this old workshop...who is it?"

At this moment, the old man completely lost the joy of walking before. He walked hurriedly and walked into the house.

 However, the moment the old man stepped into the door, he felt as if his right foot had stepped on something.

 “Click.”

"Um?"

The old man lowered his head and looked doubtfully, and then saw a round iron plate under his feet.

That is………

 “Boom————!!”

The next moment, the melta bomb exploded completely, and the flames that were hot enough to melt the armor of the battleship rose into the sky, completely swallowing up the old man and the dilapidated mansion together.

At the same time, Duanmu Huai and others had arrived at a B&B on the edge of Fuyuki City. Of course, they did not have the currency of this era, but it didn't matter. When he was rescuing people in Medea just now, Duanmuhuai collected some money and currency from the mansion and temporarily rented the B&B in line with the player's spirit of not stealing away.

 When the fire from the melta bomb illuminated the dim sky, Duanmu Huai and others were eating on the balcony of the B&B.

 “What's that sound?”

Hearing the sound of the melta bomb exploding, Ma Xiu asked doubtfully, while Duanmu Huai just glanced back.

“Who knows, maybe it was a gas explosion.”

 Then he answered indifferently.

 After dinner, the group gathered around the sleeping girl again, with speechless expressions on their faces.

 “What should we do now? MASTER? We can't take her back to Chaldea, right?”

"Of course it's impossible...forget it, it won't be too late to wait until the Holy Grail War is over."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand. Putting aside the time line issue, it was impossible for such a young girl to go to Chaldea.

"What should we do now? Miss Medea has felt the breath of the heroic spirit coming from the dock. Are we going to fight? But in this case..."

Matthew looked at the girl with some embarrassment. If they all went to fight, then the girl would be left alone. If something happens then, it will be bad.

"Um………"

Duanmu Huai thought for a moment, then snapped his fingers.

 “Yes, wait a minute.”

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai moved his fingers slightly, and the next moment, a soul card disappeared from his fingers, and then with the holy light shining, Lorena appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

“Ah, Lord Knight, why did you come to see me? Hey? These two are...”

Looking at Matthew and Medea in front of her, Lorena blinked curiously, while Matthew and Medea also looked at Lorena in surprise.

“MASTER? Is this...?”

 “Is she also a Servant?”

“I'll explain the specific situation to you when I get back.”

Duanmu Huai obviously didn't have time to answer their questions one by one now, so he said a few words to Matthew and Medea, then turned to Lorena and briefly explained the girl's situation.

"...In short, that's it. We are going to fight next. We don't have the extra manpower to take care of her, so I leave it to you. No matter what happens, you must protect her. I don't want to rescue her again with great difficulty. Being taken away... This kind of plot is very disgusting in the game."

 “Okay, please leave it to me, Lord Knight!”

 After listening to Duanmuhuai's words, Lorena nodded vigorously.

 “I will definitely protect this girl!”
