239 Chapter 237. Exploration
"Rider, what is the name of this general who is very similar to Berserker?"

"Wait, let me see..."

Iskandar took the gamepad in Weber's hand, returned the perspective to the selection interface, looked at the words on it and said:

"Zhao——Zhao Yun."

"Is the name Zhao Yun? Then wait a minute, I'll check his deeds."

With the help of new things like the Internet, Weber quickly found out the life and achievements of the historical figure Zhao Yun, and the more he looked, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

"Hey, Rider, take a look at the anecdotes about this person, is it very consistent with the situation of berserker? The appearance of the white horse, silver spear and silver armor is basically the same, especially in the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" about Zhao Yun The description of riding the savior alone, one person and one ride on the Changban slope seven times and seven times. He also killed dozens of enemies, big and small. If this legend is transformed into an inherent skill, then it will be against Berserker according to the number of enemies Is the inherent skill for self-enhancement exactly the same?"

Iskandar nodded:
"The abilities of our servants are often based on legends that are familiar to later generations. If this person really participated in the Holy Grail War, then this legend that has been widely spread in the island country has the possibility of being transformed into inherent abilities. sexual."

Most of the time, the abilities of heroic spirits do not depend on historical facts, but on popularity.If in the real history, Gilgamesh may not have the king's treasure like a bug, but with the addition of the well-known ancient human being's oldest epic "Gilgamesh", Gilgamesh has really become "Two-thirds God, one-third man" hero king.

The same goes for Iskandar, whose divine wheel comes from the anecdote of his subjugation of Zeus' bullock cart.The story was passed on by word of mouth, became known, and became the power of Iskandar.

"In that case, you brat...wait!"

Iskandar hadn't finished speaking halfway, when he suddenly hugged Weber Velvet by the waist, smashed through the window and jumped out.

At the same time Iskandar led Waver out of the room, a huge explosion sounded behind them.

"Rider?"

"It's really lingering, it's Assassin. This is a long-planned assassination. Due to the influence of breath blocking, it's almost too late to dodge. It's really a close call."

Iskandar, who came out from the second floor's broken window, landed firmly on the land among the mountains with Waver in his arms.

Weber jumped off Iskandar, turned his head and scanned, and sure enough, on the second floor of the small building, he saw a servant wearing Assassin's iconic black tights and a white skull mask.

"Why do Assassins still appear? Shouldn't they have been annihilated by you Rider last night?"

"The nature of this Assassin is quite special. Until now we still don't know how many Assassins there are. Now it seems that not all Assassins who came to disturb our banquet last night, the master of Assassin must have left a certain number follower."

"Fortunately, grandpa and grandma happened to go out to Fuyuki New Town today, so there was no murder..."

"You're not out of danger yet, brat! It's not just the one on the second floor who came here, there's at least one more in the forest... No, it's gone now."

Iskandar's dignified expression suddenly changed into confusion,
The breath of another Assassin who he felt should be ambushing in the forest suddenly ran out in the opposite direction of Weber and the others.

And the culprit who raided the stronghold of Weber and Iskandar and punched a big hole in the wooden wall of their temporary residence also quickly retreated in this short period of time and disappeared out of the sight of Weber and Iskandar. .

"The other party has changed their strategy. They are now using the method of running thousands of miles away with one blow, aiming at the opportunity to show your flaws in life, and killing you with one blow. If I hadn't happened to be on the side just now, I'm afraid they would have succeeded gone."

Weber bit his nails.

"Compared to Iskandar, my self-preservation ability is too weak. The master of Assassin must have seen this, and then sent a killer to try to solve the problem once and for all."

"Kid, please try your best to act together with me these days. Assassin is a heroic spirit agent who is good at stealth and assassination. If you leave my sight, something bad may happen."

"Well. To be on the safe side, let's do this."

And on the second morning of the King's Banquet, the Matou family's mansion.

"Sakura."

Kariya Matou stopped the purple-haired little loli who was walking in the corridor, the second daughter of the Tohsaka family who had been adopted by the Matou family and renamed Matou Sakura.

Before that, Matou Kariya brought Lancer back to the Matou mansion to deliberately make trouble, but it finally had an effect, at least Matou Zouyan did not arrange for Matou Sakura to come down to the worm's nest in the past few days.

This is the result of a compromise between him and the old monster.

"What's the matter? Uncle Kariya?"

There was no emotion in Matou Sakura's words, and the liveliness and anger that children of the same age basically have were completely absent from him.The conversation with her was as routine as it was without any emotion.

Looking at Matou Sakura's appearance, Matou Kariya suddenly didn't know what to say.

"?"

Sakura tilted her head slightly, as if she was wondering why the other party stopped her.

"It's nothing, it's just that you've been here with Uncle for so long, Sakura, it seems that Uncle hasn't given you any decent present yet..."

Matou Kariya exposed his right hand that was behind his back.

What Matou Kariya holds in the palm is a small pocket watch with a simple style but exquisite workmanship. It is tied with a thin silver chain. Looking at the length, thickness and size of the silver chain, one can tell at a glance that the pocket watch is designed for children. .

"This is uncle's belated gift. Come on, Sakura, let uncle put it on you."

With the state of Matou Kariya's left arm, the task that can only be completed with the cooperation of both hands is already quite a challenge.Kariya Matou spent a lot of time just putting on a necklace for a well-behaved girl who is not fussy.

During this process, Matou Sakura remained motionless.

After wasting a long time, he finally buttoned the silver chain.

"Sakura, this little clock, I hope you keep it close to your body as much as possible. At least try not to throw it away for a few days. Is that okay?"

Matou Sakura silently nodded.

"So nice."

Matou Kariya touched Sakura's little head:

"Sakura, your name is the name of Sakura. Sakura is the most beautiful flower that will bloom in spring."

Matou Kariya looked at Sakura's face, lost in thought.

A few seconds later, Matou Kariya, who came back to his senses, touched his withered side face,

"What on earth was I talking about to the child? Sorry, Sakura, you must have forgotten what my uncle said just now."

After saying something without beginning or end, Matou Kariya stood up and staggered out.

"Uncle Kariya."

It was a clear and tender voice that called Matou Kariya to stop:

"Uncle Kariya, aren't you coming back?"

Matou Kariya once again froze in place, the child's question sometimes pointed to the essence.

Without answering, Matou Kariya finally shook his head slightly and left.

Legend has it that people were once buried in the ground at the foot of every splendid cherry tree.It is not clear when this legend became popular, but if it is true that there are dead bodies buried under the cherry blossom trees.Then, the one buried under Sakura's feet is undoubtedly herself.

The flesh and blood of the body was eaten by countless maggots, and it rotted and stinks.But between the blood and bones, the most beautiful flowers in the world can bloom.

He hoped so.

"Compared to Ms. Sakura, Kariya, you may be more like a cherry blossom, right? After a short period of blooming, it quickly began to decay. The pink and white petals that were once proud of turned into garbage in the grass. It is extremely easy The frail goodness of passing away corresponds exactly to the state of mind of a man who dies calmly."

Matou Kariya has completely adapted to the elusiveness of his servants.He replied:
"The meaning of some people's life is to teach and educate people, the meaning of some people's life is to cure diseases and save others, and the meaning of life of some people is to defend their home and country. But unfortunately, my life is not so smooth. As a short-lived ghost, maybe my death , will make my life more valuable. Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow night."

"However, why did you give something to Ms. Sakura, Kariya? As a member of the Matou family, perhaps for Ms. Sakura, the gift you gave Kariya can only remind her of the bad past..."

"On this point, I am just helpless. Of course, after Sakura came to Matou's house, I did not give any decent gifts. This reason is not an excuse, but a fact. From another perspective, if I have died here and now, so who will mourn for me? Probably only Sakura. If I don’t send her off, who else can I send off to?”

"Let's stop here for gossip. Kariya, as far as I know, Caster and his Master seem to be planning to do something worse than the previous stalking and petty crimes. It may cause many casualties."

"Do you know the approximate time and place?"

"This point can't be detected. The other party has been hiding in the city's cistern. There is an obstruction, so it's inconvenient to observe. And there is an Assassin nearby. In order not to expose his position as much as possible, he can't choose a more suitable observation position. Only You can watch from afar.”

"Is that so..."

Kariya Matou asked again:
"Then when do you think Caster and the others will start to act?"

"With Caster's usual style, I'm afraid it will be tonight. He has never been a thoughtful one, but is more like one of the most dangerous criminals among criminals who commit crimes for their own pleasure and excitement. Such a person is very rare. patiently."

"If I remember correctly, the priest of the Arbiter Holy Church said before that Caster was wanted for violating the rules of magicians and attacking ordinary people in the Holy Grail War, wantonly killing people, and the last one to kill Caster , able to obtain the Command Spell provided by Kotomine Risei."

As the Master, he is naturally very interested in Command Seals.Therefore, caster has become a favorite in the eyes of other masters.Everyone wants to come up and take a bite or two.

"If the other Masters and Servants' eyes are on Caster, especially the Command Seal that attracted their attention, does this mean that they are not paying attention to our thoughts?"

"Kariya, are you planning to..."

"That's right, it's tonight. If Caster really makes a big move, then our small moves can keep up.

"It's time to settle the grievances between me and the old monster."
