[FATEFGO] Master's Note

Shen Muxiao was so frightened that he trembled all over, and the fire folder in his hand fell to the ground.If she hadn't known that there were soldiers searching for her outside, she would definitely have been startled by the sudden panting.

She picked up the fire folder in a panic, and looked at the cage timidly.

It was dark and she couldn't see anything.

Intuition told her that leaving as soon as possible was the best policy, but she couldn't move.

In the damp darkness, all kinds of horrible thoughts began to grow wildly in her mind.She is obviously an atheist, but at this moment she actually has the illusion that she is surrounded by many ghosts.

She tried to stop herself from thinking too much, but she couldn't get rid of these illusions.

Another heavy gasp.

Shen Muxiao ventured closer.She could hear faint groans/groans.

The man seemed to be in pain.

Thinking of this, Shenmu Xiao's timidity was suppressed a little.She lit the torch and tremblingly approached the cage, trying to see what was going on inside.

A man was chained in a cage. In order to prevent him from moving, several thick and long iron nails made of dark iron were pierced into his shoulders and knees.He seemed to have struggled violently, for there was a layer of blood on the nail.

He couldn't lift his head up, his eyes half-opened.Feeling the light, he raised his eyes hard, trying to see who was coming to visit.

This person seemed to be dying soon, and a thought suddenly popped into Shen Muxiao's mind.But since he is also imprisoned here, even if he cannot become an ally fighting side by side, at least he will not become an enemy.

Moreover, he looked as if he was in pain, and Shen Muxiao didn't want to let him go.

If she remembered correctly, the magic dress she was wearing also had the function of healing wounds, but it didn't have the divine power to fully recover a seriously injured person, it was only superficial healing.But for the person in front of him, simple superficial healing has already done him a great favor.

Shenmu Xiaofang put the Huozhangzi in the empty wine bottle on the table beside him, and walked back to the cage.It became a little darker as far as the eyes could see, and his groaning/groaning sound filled the ears, and Shen Muxiao became terrified again for some reason.

She took a deep breath, tried to clear her mind, and began to play the role of the magic dress.

The wounds on his body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"what--"

He regained his sanity, raised his head and looked at Shenmu Xiao.

Shen Muxiao took a few steps back vigilantly.

"You... hello..."

"Another person? How far does that tyrant want to torture me..." He sighed helplessly.

Shenmuxiao waved her hands again and again, and hastily clarified for herself: "The master from Chaldea, in fact, I was imprisoned here just like you, and I accidentally broke into here when I was escaping. That... Presumptuous Let me ask you, are you...?"

"That's right. Assassin, Yan Qing." He shook the iron chain in his hand, "Help me, get me out."

"Ah? How to do it?"

The cage is fastened by a huge lock, which cannot be easily opened without a key.Even after opening the lock, Shenmu Xiao didn't have the confidence to successfully unlock the chain.

"Is there a key on the wall?"

Shen Muxiao looked back, and found that there was indeed a bunch of keys hanging directly above Huozhezi.She hurriedly removed the key, but found a new problem.

"Mr. Yan Qing, which one should it be?"

"Try one by one."

Isn't this too imprecise? !

Despite complaining so much, Shen Muxiao tried to insert each key into the lock hole according to what Yan Qing said, but tried all the keys, and none of them matched.

In desperation, Shenmu Xiao had no choice but to remove the hairpin pinned to his head, and tried to use it to unlock the lock.However, she was not a professional locksmith, and she fiddled with it for a long time before she heard a crisp sound of the lock spring springing.

She breathed a sigh of relief, moved the iron lock a little clumsily, and went inside to help Yan Qing untie the chains that bound him.

After a lot of scrambling, Yan Qing finally regained her freedom.

The torch was about to burn out, Shen Muxiao carefully protected it in the palm of his hand, trying to keep it burning for a while longer.

Yan Qing suddenly stretched out her hand to Shen Muxiao and said, "Give me the fire pocket."

Seeing the wooden stick in Yan Qing's hand, Shen Muxiao hesitated, and asked: "Are you going to light the torch? Are you not afraid of being seen by others?"

"Assassin's best at concealing breath, don't worry." Yan Qing patted his chest to assure him, and Shen Muxiao handed him the fire pocket with dubious confidence.

"By the way, do you know how to get out?"

"I have a little impression. All in all, as long as you follow me closely, it doesn't matter. Let's go!"

"Yes." Shen Muxiao quickly followed behind him.

Yan Qing had a slight impression of being brought into this dungeon, but it was slightly blurred with the passage of time, so she still made a detour, Shen Muxiao began to wonder if Yan Qing was lying to her.

Fortunately, they did not encounter any soldiers along the way.

After following Yan Qing's footsteps in a daze for a long time, Shen Muxiao finally felt the wind.Although it might just be her illusion, it was enough to make her excited.

But the next moment, the excitement disappeared without a trace.

At the corner, the fire light gradually brightened, and the crisp impact sound of the armor was particularly obvious in this small and dark area.

If they went on like this, they would run into the soldiers head-on.

Shen Muxiao was flustered for a moment, subconsciously looked up at Yan Qing, and found that he was so indifferent as if he hadn't noticed anything.

"Mr. Yan Qing!" Shen Muxiao whispered, "What should we do!"

Yan Qing put a finger on her lips, motioning her to keep silent.He handed the torch in his hand to Shen Muxiao, and he walked forward.

Shen Muxiao couldn't figure out his thoughts at all, so he had no choice but to continue walking.

Caught off guard, Yan Qing rushed towards the soldiers and beat them down with a set of Chinese boxing techniques.

"Okay, let's move on."

Yan Qing looked calm.

Shocked, Shenmu Xiao pointed at the fallen soldier, unable to even utter a complete sentence.

"This... this... what..."

"This is an assassination." Yan Qing said seriously.

Assassination?Shen Muxiao felt that his cognition had been severely refreshed.

"Stop staring. Go!"

Yan Qing snatched the torch from her hand and walked forward holding her arm.

The more he walked forward, the rotten smell permeating the nose gradually faded, and the air became much fresher.Apparently they weren't going in the wrong direction.

Near the exit, there were more soldiers, but they all fell under Yan Qing's assassination method.The two left the dungeon almost without any hindrance.

The slightly cold wind made Shenmu Xiao shiver, but she didn't care about the chill, and she still greedily breathed the fresh air outside.

Yan Qing was not as relaxed as she was, and he was a little annoyed.

"Next, where should we go to find the tyrant."

"...I don't know." Shen Muxiao shook his head helplessly, and took the opportunity to ask him, "But why is Mr. Yan Qing locked up here? Do you know what Ying Zheng is planning?"

"It's probably a stupid wish about eternal life. I don't know the specifics. But I know that his wish needs to consume a lot of lives—the lives of living human beings—to achieve it."

Hearing this, Shenmu Xiao couldn't help trembling.

Yan Qing had a panoramic view of her reaction, and continued: "I was one of his subordinates. After vaguely learning about his plot, I wanted to resist, but was arrested. How long have I been imprisoned? To be honest, I I don’t remember, it was a long time anyway.”

He squeezed the space between his eyebrows.After staying in the dark for too long, something went wrong with his memory.However, he thought that since he had not been completely dealt with by Ying Zheng, it meant that his strategy had not been fully implemented.

That's right, conquering the entire Central Plains is definitely not something that can be done in a few days or months.

"Sikong Hall is probably in this direction, and Yingzheng is probably here." He pointed to the palace to the south, "Let's go."

"Okay." Shen Muxiao nodded.

Under Yan Qing's leadership, the two sneaked towards Sikong Palace.

The griffin roared, and Astolfo blocked their way forward.He stared at Shenmu Xiao closely, making Shenmu Xiao a little hairy.

"You actually escaped?"

Shen Muxiao suddenly became bolder, and replied loudly: "That's right."

Her answer made Astolfo laugh a few times.After the laughter, he said seriously: "Then let me see where you can go!"

He drew the long sword from his waist.Yan Qing pushed Shen Muxiao behind her.

Suddenly, a piercing tearing sound rang in his ears, and the arrow shining with golden light flew towards Astolfo.Astolfo swung his sword to cut off the arrow feathers, but more weapons of various colors greeted him.

Xiao Shenmu knew that he was here.

Astolfo could not completely block Gilgamesh's high-density attack with his meager strength alone.Seeing that the spear was about to pierce his chest, a layer of earth appeared in front of him, blocking all attacks.Looking back, he saw Ying Zheng's dragon robe.

"His Majesty?"

"Back off, Mr. Fu."

Astolfo was a little surprised that Ying Zheng would personally rescue him.

Gilgamesh's face remained unchanged, and he controlled Vimana to hit the ground directly, crushing the white jade floor tiles into slag.

Ying Zheng laughed lightly, with his usual expression on his face, and said calmly, "It's really daring to enter my palace in such a rough way."

Gilgamesh stepped down from Vimana and said condescendingly, "For a guy who doesn't know himself, we should use the simplest way to let him know his status."

Shen Muxiao felt relieved for a while.She led Yanqing towards Gilgamesh, but Yanqing suddenly stopped her.

"Master of Chaldea, there is something you need to do."

He said, and handed Shen Muxiao a dagger.

The dawn is faint, and the battle is imminent.

The author has something to say:

Yan Qing is so handsome that he can't close his legs, his cv is still a small letter, and he is not Chinese if he doesn't smoke! !

There are about two more chapters left, and Fuyuki's singularity is moved to the side story.Hmm, Fuyuki should be interesting.
