There is indeed a problem with my summoning spirit system

Chapter 206 204. The Matou Family

Matou Zouken opened his eyes, his sunken eye sockets and mummy-like withered body made him look extremely terrifying.

"The Holy Grail is an omnipotent wish-making machine that can fulfill the wishes of both the master and the servants of the heroic spirits who finally won the Holy Grail War. Most of the heroic spirits accepted the summons for this reason and came to this world."

"Servant, what is your wish?"

The silver-armored general replied:
"As a military commander, I have no regrets in my life. The only hope left is to help the lord achieve his ambitions. The direction of the lord's righteousness is the direction of Zilong's spear."

"It seems that you, Kariya, have good luck. I didn't expect that there would be a heroic spirit whose wish is to fulfill the master's wish. In this way, your chances of defeating Tosaka Tokiomi will be higher."

Matou Zouken couldn't hear emotions such as happiness or sadness in his words.

"Forgive me, my lord. The environment here seems to be a bit harsh. Is the situation so bad?"

Matou Kariya secretly glanced at the shriveled old monster next to him. Although it was written as his father on the genealogy tree, he didn't know how many years he had lived.

He was convinced that the harsh environment mentioned by the follower Zhao Zilong most likely referred to the bad smell of decay on Matou Zouyan and the magic bugs he raised in the insect cellar.

In ancient France in the past, those seemingly tall medieval French aristocrats who didn't take a bath all the year round may have tasted like this.But those French nobles would spray perfume to cover up anyway.Matou Zouken didn't have this habit at all.Taste is bad in another sense.

Although Matou Kariya also hated this, but now he still needs to do what the old monster in front of him said.As the old monster said, the two of them are now in the same position.

"I'm very sorry, respected hero. Although this is not a place that fits your status, as a basement and magic workshop, the safety of the summoning ceremony here is guaranteed. Please rest assured that we will properly arrange your residence later."

"It doesn't matter, Yun has fought on the battlefield all his life, a little dirt and stale air are nothing. My lord, but Yun wants to ask, what is my lord's ambition?"

Jiantong Yanye was stunned for a moment.

ambition?I might still have this thing in the past, but after making a choice a year ago, those so-called ambitions have disappeared.

After the violent transformation of Matou Zouyan's engraving worms, Matou Kariya gained enough magic power to be the master of the Holy Grail War in a way that was ineffective. Although these engraved worms can strengthen and transform his body and magic circuits, they obey the orders of the caster Matou Zouken, which means that Matou Kariya will not be able to use any magic methods to fight, and his life force will be converted into magic power and magic power in large quantities. The magic circuit, the remaining lifespan, even if you live in the most healthy way, is only enough to last for a year at most.

If we take into account that in the Holy Grail War, he also has to provide magic power for the summoned heroic spirit servants as the master, Matou Kariya's life will be even shorter. If the servant is allowed to consume the fastest magic power among all professions, berserker Participating in a protracted battle at a high speed, it is extremely normal to drive a crane west overnight.

Such a short-lived ghost who can only live for one year, where does he have such lofty ambitions?
"It's not so much an ambition as my only short-term goal right now, which is to win this Holy Grail War. Can you accept such an ambition?"

"My lord, you don't seem to have fully expressed your thoughts... It doesn't matter, your aspirations are big or small. Since Yun has become your lord's subordinate, then Yun will definitely bring victory to your lord."

In the presence of Matou Zouken, Li wanted to know that this was not a suitable place for communication, so he stopped the conversation.

After the master and the servants exchanged basic information with each other, Matou Zouyan and Matou Kariya, two important figures of the Matou family, personally took the servant Zhao Zilong to familiarize themselves with the terrain in the Matou family.

A thin little girl with purple hair and purple pupils was by the door, and said softly:

"Grandpa, Uncle Kariya."

Li Xiang, who assumed the identity of Zhao Yun, shrank his pupils slightly when he heard these words, and took a careful look at the little girl.

The typical purple hair and purple pupils, young but outstanding appearance, as well as a deadpan, calm voice.

That's right, this must be his main mission target this time, Sakura Matou.

Li Xiang glanced at Jiantong Zunyan and Jiantong Kariya with puzzled eyes.

Matou Zouken glanced at Matou Sakura, and explained to his followers:

"This is the second daughter of three generations of our family, Sakura Matou."

"Sakura, it's getting late, go back to your room and rest."

"Ah."

The little girl responded in a low voice and returned to her room.

From the expressionless face, flat tone, and empty eyes, judging from Matou Sakura's numb state, Matou Zouken has been transforming her for some time.Matou Sakura was adopted into the Matou family by Tokiomi Tokiomi Tohsaka a year ago during the Fourth Holy Grail War. Assuming that the transformation began shortly after the adoption, Matou Sakura has already experienced a year of cruelty. remodel.

The reason why Matou Kariya had to obey Matou Zouken to accept the transformation of the engraving insect magic was because of Matou Sakura.

Matou Sakura, Matou Kariya's childhood sweetheart, is now one of the second daughters of Tosaka Aoi who married into the Tosaka family and became Tosaka Tokiomi's wife.

Matou Kariya likes Tohsaka Aoi, and therefore hates Tohsaka Tokiomi.But affectionately, he did not go to stalking to affect the life of the one he loves.He just paid attention to the other party as an old friend of Aoi Tohsaka.The two little sisters of the Tosaka family, Tosaka Rin and Tosaka Sakura (now Matou Sakura), are also very familiar with this amiable Uncle Kariya.

He really took care of the two little girls of the Tosaka family as his own daughters, so when he knew that the Tosaka family was going to adopt Matou Sakura into his own home, he couldn't accept it.

As a member of the Matou family, he is very aware of the situation of the Matou family.Under the shadow of Matou Zouken, an old monster who has lived for an unknown number of years, the adopted Matou Sakura will never face any good things.

Sure enough, Matou Sakura's magic attribute is a rare imaginary number, and her magic aptitude is also very strong, suitable for becoming a magician. However, the magic attribute of the Matou family is water. In order for Matou Sakura, whose attribute is an imaginary number, to learn to integrate Matou Zouken carried out a cruel transformation on Matou Sakura.

Using Matou Zouken's insect magic to transform a human's magic circuit is completely inhumane torture, which makes Matou Sakura unacceptable to Matou Kariya who regards him as his child.He knew what he had to do.

But Matou Zouken is a great magician who has lived for 600 years. With Matou Kariya's poor magic aptitude, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the opponent. Therefore, he chose to cooperate with the opponent. Yan exchanges Matou Sakura.

In this way, Matou Kariya participated in the Holy Grail War as the master of the Matou family and summoned Li Xiang, who was in the state of a heroic spirit.

Since it is to eliminate Matou Sakura's psychological shadow, why not let herself appear at an earlier time?Although the possibility of a stranger intervening by myself is very low, can I really complete the task in this state?
Li Xiang was a little puzzled. From a personal emotional point of view, no matter how dirty the magician's hands are, the child is absolutely innocent. It is one thing to simply take life for some purpose.But letting an innocent person suffer such torture for no reason has violated the basic principles of being a human being.At least from Li Xiang's point of view, this is something that an absolute villain would do.

Li Xiang's eyes flicked over Jiantong Zouyan.

To restore Matou Sakura's psychological shadow and let her live a normal life is the basic condition.And if Matou Zouken existed, this would be impossible.

He needs to kill Matou Zouken, and the sooner the better.

The military commander in silver armor and white clothes lowered his eyes, and then focused on his master—Matou Kariya.

It's ridiculous to say that the best chess piece in Jiantong Zouyan's hands-Matong Kariya, and the chess piece-the follower Zhao Zilong is also Li Xiang. The most direct way to achieve your goal is to kill Jiantong Dirty inkstone.

Kariya Matou wants to win the Holy Grail War in order to exchange the Holy Grail and Matou Zouyan for Matou Sakura.But if Matou Zouken dies, he will be the most powerful heir to the next Patriarch of the Matou family.In addition to magic education, with the financial resources of the Matou family, he can even provide Matou Sakura with the treatment of a noble lady.Let this child who regards himself as his own live a happy life.

On the surface, he bears the identity of Zhao Zilong, but in fact he is Li Xiang's follower, carrying the task of eliminating the psychological shadow of Ma Tongying and finding out the cause of Ma Tongying's excessive blackening.The interests and interests of Matou Kariya are almost exactly the same.

As long as he and Matou Kariya analyze the problem clearly, the master and the servant of the heroic spirit will complete the united front in an instant.

Other combinations of Masters and Heroic Spirits from the Fourth Holy Grail War,
Lancer's master Kenneth suspects that his servant Diarmuid seduces his fiancée, and a combination without trust naturally cannot be said to be a sincere cooperation;

Gilgamesh is the oldest king in human history. He has a strong and domineering personality. He has become a standard magician. The values ​​​​are completely different, and they can't cooperate well at all;
The conflict between King Arthur Arturia Pendragon, a noble knight king who practiced chivalry, and Emiya Kiritsugu, an assassin and magician killer, is simply irreconcilable. If Artoria's master Einzbern might be better;

The master of Assassin is Kotomine Kirei, the agent of the church. The "tool man" trained by this church was a model employee before he came into contact with Gilgamesh. As a disciple of Tohsaka Tokiomi, he completely served Tohsaka Tokiomi. It is impossible to talk about heart-to-heart or cooperation with one's followers;
The master of the Rider job agency, Weber, had a bad compatibility between the two before he thoroughly understood the King of Conquerors Iskandar;

I am afraid that in the entire Holy Grail War, the only combination of Master and Heroic Spirit that can compete with the combination of Kariya Matou and Li Xiang in terms of compatibility is the murderer Ryunosuke Uyuu who messed up in the Holy Grail War and Jill from the role of Caster. .These two people don't care about winning or losing the Holy Grail War. One is a murderer who likes to kill people, and the other is an evil magician who is proficient in black magic.Don't get too in tune with each other.

However, due to the restrictions of the three command spells in Matou Kariya's hand and the engraving worms on Matou Kariya's body, Li Xiang could not directly deal with Matou Zouyan for the time being.Moreover, Matou Zouyan's current body is made of worms. If the brain worm that stores his consciousness and soul does not die, his life will not end. It is not Li Xiang's idea what Matou Zouyan will do in the dark I can control it.

However, for Li Xiang, who is in the state of a heroic spirit, Jiantong Zouyan's combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning at all, and Zhao Yun's combat effectiveness is definitely not underestimated.

The only thing he has to pay attention to is to find out where the opponent's brain worm is or to find a way to kill Matou Zouken completely.As long as he finds the answer to this question, this Holy Grail War has already been won for him.

"About this competition for the Holy Grail, the most important thing to note is that the Tosaka family and the Einzbern family belong to the three Holy Grail War royal families like our Matou family. The masters who have been confirmed to participate include the current head of the Tohsaka family, Tohsaka. Tosaka Tokiomi; the Einzbern family seems to have hired a mercenary who specializes in combat; the most notable among them is the current head of the Tosaka family, Tosaka Tokiomi, a magic genius who is rare in a century. He uses The holy relic is said to be the slough of the first snake in ancient times, and it may summon the heroic spirits of the Age of Gods. Although the system of Chinese heroic spirits is completely different from that of European heroic spirits, this is the first time I have encountered such a situation, but it can be used specifically. It is still unknown whether we can win with how much ability we have.”

The castle of the Matou family is quite old. After passing Sakura Matou's room and walking along the long dark corridor, Zouyan Matou introduced to Li Xiang as he walked.

The Holy Grail War system will give the Heroic Spirits summoned to the present world basic knowledge about the Holy Grail War and the current era.As a heroic spirit, Li Xiang also received this gift.However, information about other opponents will not be given directly, and you need to collect information yourself.

Although Li Xiang knew most of this part of knowledge and intelligence, in order not to make Jiantong Zouyan suspicious, Li Xiang still made an appearance of listening carefully.

"Kariya, your magic power is still quite lacking, and you can't withstand a large-scale and long-term attrition war. For now, temporarily hold back your troops and wait for other masters to take action to confirm the combat effectiveness of others before joining."

It was a matter of business, and Matou Zouken's opinions and suggestions were quite sincere at this time.After all, if the two "people" in front of him died, his plan would be difficult to complete.

"As a surprise soldier, Berserker also asks you to make some disguises, pretending to be a normal Berserker without reason. It may have a miraculous effect at a critical moment."

Li Xiang's heart moved, he turned his head and asked Jiantong Yanye:

"My lord, what the military adviser said is very reasonable, how about Yun just follow what he said?"
