Shen Muxiao squatted beside the tree roots, covering his face with his hands.Scathach's words shuttled through her brain in various forms, making her restless.

——Convincing me with human beings as the starting point is not the best choice.

Because he didn't do his homework beforehand, he didn't know much about the Celtic legend Shenmu Xiao, which led to the appearance of this embarrassing scene.

"I finally understand the principle of hating less books when they are used up, but why did you use such a cruel way to make me understand this!" She wailed in a low voice.

She swears that when she goes back, she must read all the books in the Chaldean library!

Of course, that's assuming she actually has the spare time.

But she soon regained her spirits.Even Zhuge Kongming, a great military strategist, will fall from the horse (although she does not know whether there are similar historical events), she is just trying to talk about Dafa for the first time, even if she can't understand the essence of it, it is understandable. Why bother to feel sorry for yourself?

Inspired by this kind of thought, she stood up with a "bass", imitating the appearance of a girl in Japanese manga, and slapped her cheeks hard with her hands, but the strength was accidentally not mastered, and the pain was so painful that she almost I was about to cry.

Gilgamesh, who was thinking of coming to enlighten her, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief seeing that she had recovered herself.

"I didn't expect the master to come out of the shadows so soon. It's beyond my imagination. It seems that the consolation words that I thought of just now are useless now!" He said half-jokingly.

"Always let a child like you come to comfort me, then I'm really too sorry..."

Before Shenmu Xiao finished speaking, Gilgamesh hurriedly interjected, "Don't call me a child!"

Shen Muxiao was taken aback by his bluffing appearance, and quickly waved his hands, expressing that he would not make such a mistake again, but secretly complained about the changeable psychology of a growing teenager.

Gilgamesh hates being called a "kid" the most, and of course that's largely down to a voice chattering in his head.But since he entered the confines of Paris, that odious fellow has been silent, and has said nothing more.Gilgamesh gloated and guessed that he probably disappeared completely.

Under tremendous pressure, Shen Muxiao bit the bullet and came to Skaha again.Seeing Scathach's face, Shenmu Xiao would inevitably think of the previous embarrassing scene, but she quickly suppressed this embarrassing emotion.

She adjusted her breathing, adjusted her mentality by the way, and persuaded Skaha again.But this time her starting point changed from "love for human beings" to "views on both justice and evil".

Obviously, as the queen of the "Kingdom of Shadows", Scathach did not live up to her characteristics as a heroic spirit of order and goodness, and subconsciously still leaned more towards the bright side.

After talking for a while, Shen Muxiao couldn't help wondering why Scathach would become a pawn of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Skaha explained: "I and Cu Chulainn are just servants summoned by that man. He never said the purpose of our existence or the situation of this era. And the summoning is not complete. We don’t have much knowledge of this world, so before we met you, we didn’t know we were in various camps, and just accepted his instructions indifferently.”

"So... who is the mastermind behind the scenes?" Shen Muxiao cautiously probed, deeply afraid that if he accidentally said the wrong thing, he would not be able to get the information out.

The person who answered her question this time was Cu Chulainn.

"The fancy Englishman seems to be called Moriarty, and there's another guy with him, but I don't know his name, just always a helpless guy—he's in charge of everything."

"Moriarty!" Akatsuki Shenmu took a breath and couldn't help exclaiming.

Even a person like Shen Muxiao knew this one of the most famous villains in the history of literature, not to mention the other followers present.

"Are you also a citizen of Britain?"

When Artoria said this, her tone was flat as if she was saying "today's weather is really nice".Shen Muxiao sized her up a few times, always feeling that she knew some ulterior secrets!

Sensing her gaze, Arturia explained: "Don't look at me with such eyes. I say this only because my guess has been verified."

"What speculation?"

"The man behind the scenes is a Briton. Among the servants summoned by the Holy Grail, the British people accounted for more than half, so I took advantage of the trend to guess that the pillar of the dark forces was also a British."

Drake complained mercilessly: "This is completely blind, there is no real basis at all."

After all, she laughed out loud.Artoria began to argue with reason, and had a rare discussion with Drake about the accuracy of her guess.

Shen Muxiao didn't want to worry about how lively their discussions were.For her, the most urgent task is to persuade Scatha to join her camp.

She went through the draft several times in her mind, and then discussed with Scathach again.She thought that Scathach would change her mind after she explained her intention and purpose of coming, but Scathach shook her head and refused.

“Obviously, I hate the dark. But at the same time I don’t like change, so I prefer to stay neutral,” she says.

Shenmuxiao was inevitably a little disappointed when she first heard her words, but after careful consideration, she decided to respect Scatha's decision.

So, Scathach and Cu Chulainn stayed where they were, while Shen Muxiao and the others continued on their way to the Palace of Versailles.

"You guys have to hurry up, they seem to be planning something." Before leaving, Skaha did not forget to remind them.

Shen Muxiao was stunned for a moment, then turned around and bowed deeply to her.

When they were far away, Cu Chulainn asked Scathach why he did not accept the offer to go with them.

"Our fate is in the hands of that person. I'm not afraid of death, but if he forces me to do something disgusting, I'm not willing." She explained, "No way, who made us lancers? .”

Cu Chulainn nodded half-understood.He could hardly understand what Master said, except for the last sentence...

Lancer's luck value is low, of course he knows that...

"I said, doctor, is it possible to carry out small-scale spiritual transmission here?"

Akatsuki Kamiki, who was tired of riding on the road, asked.

She didn't want to find out that Moriarty had built some terrible weapon when they got to Versailles.

Roman grabbed his hair several times and nodded uncertainly.

"Then teleport us to the vicinity of the Palace of Versailles!"

"Eh?!" Roman exclaimed, "But the success rate may not be too high, do you really want to try?"

Shen Muxiao nodded resolutely: "Please teleport more accurately, don't go from Paris to Marseille like last time."

"It wasn't my mistake! It was obviously that enger who was summoned suddenly, and the accident happened only when the data was affected. My level is very good!"

As soon as this was mentioned, Roman hurried to defend himself.

Seeing that he was about to say a lot of eloquent words, Shen Muxiao quickly cut off his words: "Okay, okay, let's start quickly, doctor."

A crack appeared in Roman's little heart.He decided that the next time he ate steamed buns, he would never share them with Shenmu Xiao again!

But complaints are complaints, Roman did not take his job lightly.After rigorous calculations, the spiritual transfer started again.This time, they actually came to a certain courtyard in the Palace of Versailles without any deviation.

"It seems that as long as you put your heart into it, the doctor, you can really do things beautifully." Gilgamesh rarely praised Roman.

"I've been serious!"

Now that the destination has been reached, Shenmu Xiao simply put Roman, who is temporarily useless, behind him, and walked carefully among the grass blades.

It was around two o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was at its most intense, and it happened to be sunny that day. The weather was unbelievably good, and it seemed that even the sun was brighter than usual.It was as if they were walking under the spotlight.

The strange thing is that along the way, Shenmu Xiao didn't see a single person, let alone soldiers and the like.

The earl and Emiya walked ahead, and Gilgamesh followed behind them, slightly opening his arms, as if protecting Shenmu Xiao.As for Drake, although the Palace of Versailles no longer has the luxurious appearance of the previous generation, the exquisite treasures around still attracted her attention, making her almost unable to walk, if not for Artoria dragging her , she didn't know where she fell for a long time.

Footsteps echoed in the corridors of the palace.

Gilgamesh tilted his head and reminded softly: "Be careful, master. This is probably a scene deliberately designed by that guy...Here we come!"

When the voice fell, the gilded door at the end of the corridor swung open, and the heavy creaking sound scared Shenmu Xiao to grab Gilgamesh's arm tightly.

Inside the room sits a man in a red satin armchair who is, as Cú Chulainn describes it, "dressed up."At this moment, he is sipping black tea, and his posture is elegant enough to be comparable to the children of the royal family.

Seeing the "guests" coming, he put down the teacup in his hand, showed a decent smile, greeted them warmly like a host, and invited them in again and again.

But Shenmu Xiao didn't even want to get closer.

"Don't be so indifferent." Moriarty sighed, showing a look of disappointment, "I have seen your ant-like struggles, although I have only seen a part of them. But I have to say, the nation does Well done. But the Holy Grail is already in my hands, that is to say, I am the one who controls the situation now, so you don’t have to do useless things any more, and you can stay here for a long time with peace of mind.”

His natural arrogance made everyone feel a little angry.Everything they have done, in his eyes, seems to be nothing more than a mantis' arms.

Shenmu Xiao was a little angry, and shouted at Moriarty: "Why did you do such a thing-help the king avoid death, help him become a puppet, and oppress the people here?"

"Oh?" Moriarty dragged on, "I'd be very happy to tell you my thoughts. But even if I say it briefly, it will take a lot of time. If I don't do anything, during the You will definitely be sanctioned, right? Avis Bron, the maker of the puppet, he hasn't finished my secret weapon yet..."

"Your secret weapon can't be finished!" Shenmu Xiao interrupted him, "Jack has already found him, presumably he will come back with his head."

Moriarty stretched out his index finger: "No, no, miss, please don't interrupt me.

"Since there is no way for the secret weapon to meet you, then let my treasure have a good meeting with you for a while!"

Suddenly, there was a huge coffin-shaped giant gun in his hand, which came from nowhere.He placed the gun on the ground, and there was a slight shock, which gradually increased. Arturia's boss, Ramrei, screamed wildly and kept pace.

"My purpose is actually very simple-I want to witness the direction of history after the divergence; I want to see what changes will happen when history has a bifurcation. That's all."

Gilgamesh sneered, and commented disdainfully: "What a selfish idea."

Moriarty smiled without saying a word, peacefully observing the panicked expressions on their faces.

The walls began to fall off, the ground gradually cracked, and the surging magic power ran around.Shen Muxiao knew that Moriarty's treasure was about to "warm up".

"What?!" Drake asked her loudly.

"I...I don't know either!"

Her legs trembled with fear, let alone think of any countermeasures.She tried to calm herself down.

Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration, and she hurriedly asked: "If you release the treasure at this time, will the power released by the two parties be offset?"

No one knows how to answer this question, but it seems to be the only option.

Arturia raised the holy spear, and the constraints on the spear were loosened one by one.The Golden Deer has already appeared, and the sailors are methodically filling the ammunition.The king's treasury is ready and ready to go.

Moriarty seemed content with what he saw, and he picked up his gun too.

Shen Muxiao's heart was so tense that it almost stopped beating.This may be the closest she is to death, but she knows that she cannot be afraid, because what she bears is not only her own life.

At the very moment, the sound of crisp footsteps gradually approached.

"My 'friend', long time no see."

The dim palace was instantly illuminated, and the white light blinded people.

"This is……"

This feeling was so familiar that Moriarty could guess who it was without much guesswork.

"This is elementary speculation, my friend (Elementary, my dear). You may call me Ciel Loomos, or—

"Sherlock Holmes."

A wisp of light smoke rises from the nanmu pipe, and the air is filled with a faint smell of tobacco.All the movements stopped, and Moriarty fell to the ground in a somewhat dejected state, his delicate hairstyle becoming a little disheveled.

He laughed, and said with a bit of self-deprecation: "I really didn't expect that you would be here."

"It's only a little earlier than you, and you are lucky to have a perfect cover identity, so you don't know my existence."

"Are you recharging your energy just to defeat me?"

Holmes exhaled a puff of smoke, licked a few times, and replied, "Yes."

Hearing this, Moriarty laughed out loud, shrugging his shoulders.His body began to become transparent.

"You only protected Rumos City, so I didn't lose so completely. Don't... be too complacent!"

After finishing speaking, he stared at Holmes for a long while before disappearing as if unwillingly.

Louis XVI, wearing a crown, ran into the palace in a panic, with a look of horror on his face.

"Mr. Moriarty! Mr. Moriarty! I heard that Napoleon led an army into Paris. What should we do? Eh... Where's Mr. Moriarty?"

He couldn't see the familiar military adviser, but there were several faces he hadn't seen before, and Louis XVI was a little at a loss.He opened his mouth, wanting to say something several times, but in the end he didn't say anything.Holding on to the crown, he screamed and ran away.

Holmes curled his lips: "For a king like this, it is better to follow the trend and not interfere more."

The author has something to say:
