The infinite sword system has been mastered, and you say this is the dragon clan?

Chapter 162 Charlotte x Lanis√

"Yes, sister!"

Fenrir's mighty and majestic dragon body stood tall, like a towering dark metal mountain, its dragon head almost touching the dome of the void.

It agreed in a crisp and clear tone, and when it nodded, it almost used its jaw to blow a strong gust of wind above the cave. Unfortunately, its slow and dull mind made its originally majestic promise look more like a funny joke.

At least to Norton, who was on the other side of the line, that unreliable comedian feeling came over him.

Norton looked at Fenrir's silly appearance and shook his head, "Just talking but not doing it well... that's just a fake trick."

"Then Norton, what do you think we should do?" Xia Mi put her hands on her waist, with a bit of impatience in her tone. Anyway, she didn't want to stay here all day staring at a White King Seal Container. "I'm not so idle that I have to guard that gloomy container as a watchdog all day long."

This seat is better for silly brother Fenrir.

"The seal of the Holy Grail cannot afford any mistakes, and our investigation into Odin's plans must be put on the agenda immediately. Furthermore, since you have already spread the propaganda about the Holy Grail War, the choice of the masters at that time will also require careful consideration, and there can be no mistakes..."

"Our experiment has a low error tolerance rate. You can't really let the Holy Grail choose as you say in the propaganda?" Promotional slogans are something that can only be said verbally. Even if it can deceive a sufficient number of Masters, it will be considered a success. People who know the inside story will not really believe it.

It's like the three great families have a pre-determined number of masters for each term. Can't be selected? That's impossible. They are the organizers. Do they know what is called a secret operation?

At this time, Xia Mi heard Norton's instructions chattering non-stop, and the trend began to get longer and longer. Xia Mi felt his temples throbbing and his head was in a mess. "Stop, stop, stop! Maybe Odin's plan is not as complicated as we thought."

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

"From our previous research on Odin's 'Hall of Valor' plan, we can basically know that this guy is completely following the direction of fate to rebel against the Black Supreme. Although we don't know whether Odin will change his mind after the Holy Grail War, the previous layout must have followed the 'traditional layout', including Odin's calculations against the White King."

When Norton heard the words "traditional layout", his eyes narrowed and he immediately understood Odin's intention - that was an old path that Norton had long abandoned. "...You mean Odin is just planning to devour the White King?"

"Perhaps Odin has some other ideas in mind, but he cannot avoid this point in the end. However, we all know that Odin has captured the soul of the White King in Shenzhou, but this guy is still coveting Japan. It can only be said that there is something else going on. Perhaps, in addition to our Holy Grail, there is another 'White King' in this country."

Norton showed a surprised expression, "There are two White Kings? ... No, we only have the 'soul'. In other words, there is also the 'body'?"

"Yes, just like the Black Supreme once divided the four complete powers among four pairs of twins, each of which symbolized 'power and strength'. The White King is the one closest to the Black King, and she is likely to have the ability to divide her own power."

In fact, Xia Mi was not completely sure. After all, the dragons all remembered clearly how the Black King Nidhogg imprisoned the White King's body, tortured it until it was destroyed, and then killed and ate it.

But it is reasonable that the White King, as the controller of spiritual elements and the priest of the Black King, was able to escape from the prison early in the form of his soul.

However, we can’t just watch this huge body disappear right before our eyes... Or does the White King have some other way to escape... ?
"..."

The deadlocked conversation solidified into dead silence in the huge void, as if even the air had become sticky.

"It's meaningless to continue fantasizing like this," Xia Mi's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence, "Perhaps this part of the White King's 'body' has been deliberately hidden. We may be able to find useful clues among the White King's bloodline family in this country."

Norton's voice came from the Mercury Curtain, his voice was low and sarcastic: "Investigating hybrids? This sounds troublesome and time-consuming... Jörmungandr, you should also think about how many years you have spent integrating into human society."

"Hey! I spent that time to learn and adapt to human society! At least it's less time than the decades you spent!"

As Xia Mi refuted, she almost wanted to stomp her feet to crush the alchemy array.

At this moment, a spark of thought suddenly burst out from an unknown corner of her mind, "A half-blood of the White King's bloodline... the investigation will take a long time... wait, I think I can guess what Odin did..."

She muttered to herself, a look of sudden realization flashing in her eyes.

"Since Odin's collection contains the souls of the deceased from Japan, it means that this guy woke up early enough. The drawback of a long investigation time does not exist for him. It is completely feasible for him to sneak into the families of the descendants of the White King and investigate the hidden information about the White King's body!"

Norton was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "Indeed, but I don't think Odin would do it so personally."

"It doesn't necessarily have to be done personally! Think about Odin's style - he always likes to 'cooperate' with humans, right? So compared to doing it himself, manipulating a pawn to lurk in the half-blood family to realize his plan is more in line with Odin's style!"

Xia Mi seemed to have seen the chessboard carefully arranged by Odin. "It is very likely that Odin's way of exploring the secret of the White King's body is to manipulate the chess pieces he arranged... But we can also choose the Master in our Holy Grail War. This is an opportunity to destroy Odin's layout!"

————"In the Holy Grail War, the winner must be me!"

Emiya's fingers hovered above the mechanical keyboard, and he clicked the mouse, logging into a chat room after a long absence.

However, as soon as the chat interface was loaded, Charlotte's ID flashed with a gilded special effect, so that as soon as he came in, he saw Miss Charlotte's arrogant declaration, as if the goddess of victory had already smiled brightly at her.

Emiya curled his lips. He hadn't looked at this chat group for a long time. He paid attention to it because it was an employer group related to Hunter.net. When he was "scanning the list" on Hunter.net today, he suddenly remembered that he had such a small group.

As the topic of the Holy Grail War has exploded recently, "Holy Grail", "Heroic Spirit", "Command Seals"... Emiya discovered that the discussion posts on the Hunter website were all filled with these strange and encrypted words about the Holy Grail War...

Not all of these people are eager to participate and become Masters. In fact, most of them are just following the trend to make a profit. Their discussion posts floating in the deep sea are like sharks attracted by the smell of blood.

For example, Su Enxi or middlemen are selling beautifully packaged "key information", or someone is selling a fake shroud soaked in holy oil, or someone is auctioning a parchment scroll that is said to be contaminated with the breath of King Solomon... It seems that most of them are reselling fake antiques and claiming them to be authentic holy relics.

For example, some bolder people attempted to summon Heroic Spirits and bind them for research... They thought that they had Command Seals anyway, right? A Servant was nothing more than an obedient dog...

As for those who hold the last thought, Emiya can only say that ignorance is bliss. If such idiots who claim to be animal tamers really participate, they will at least be "Holy Grail War speedrunners"... After all, dying is also a way to speedrun.

"Miss, you wouldn't have wasted your money on a fake antique, would you? Be careful not to end up with a trinket from the Louvre souvenir shop." Emiya typed a line on the keyboard.

"Hey! Who are you? When did this person appear in our chat room?" Charlotte's shocked words did not seem fake. "Governor of Gaul, who is this unknown person? Do you know him? If you don't, we might as well just kick him out!"

The most popular character in the entire chat room, the Governor of Gaul who seemed to seldom surf the Internet, was also online.

"Hey, long time no see! You finally showed up. Actually, Charlotte always mentions you when she has nothing to do. She also said that you probably felt that she had made rapid progress in the Clock Tower and finally achieved a comeback, so you deliberately didn't come online so that she would lose the opportunity to show off and slap her in the face."

"Hey, hey (#`O′)! We agreed to play this guy together, but you betrayed me and acted unreasonable!"

Charlotte sent an emoji to express her displeasure.

"Let me make it clear in advance. I am not the same person I was before! I am now excellent in both character and learning, I have outstanding talents, and I have made fruitful academic research achievements. People nickname me 'Prodigy'! My Mercury AI has been upgraded to the third generation, and the latest addition is the perfect and chic British maid form. I am no worse than you!"

After that, she posted a bunch of pictures. A female figure in a maid outfit and a mercury-textured outfit was standing upright beside her, holding a silver tea tray with a row of celadon tea sets on it. Charlotte was also photographed on one side of the photo, her golden hair was neat and smooth.

Emiya thought to himself, wow, this configuration of yours looks so familiar to me, what is your relationship with Lanis from the El-Melloi family?
But before Emiya could answer, the Governor of Gaul interrupted and refuted, expressing his opinion on Charlotte's words - for some reason, he had become Emiya's substitute today.

"I don't agree with this. There is still a big gap between you and others! Your reputation has not yet reached your grandfather's ears. It is just a reputation within the Clock Tower. If you hadn't boasted about it in the chat room every day, I wouldn't even know about this situation..."

"But!" The Governor of Gaul spoke in a high-pitched voice, as if he was reciting a hymn in a rhythmic manner. "The one we are welcoming today is the unrivaled 'God Slayer' who has attracted the attention of the whole world and who has killed many gods!"

The chat room suddenly fell into an eerie silence, as if everyone was stunned by the tone that sounded either childish or a serious compliment.

Emiya was stunned for three seconds, his hair standing on end at the tone of voice, before he came to his senses... God Slayer, that's the title he got for killing Odin not long ago... But he didn't use his real name online, so how could his real name be exposed like this?

"I don't seem to understand what you are talking about..."

"Brother, stop pretending! I recently heard that there is a trick in Shenzhou Online called 'playing the pig to eat the tiger', which is referring to people like you. But if you think about it a little, you will know that this trick doesn't actually work."

Emiya scratched his head when he heard this word out of the blue. Nowadays, even young Western nobles have started to follow Eastern cultivation novels?

"Because the reality is often very different. In the information age, it is very difficult to hide what has been done... For some large families with more channels, it is not difficult to obtain certain information."

The Governor of Gaul gave a little "finger-wagging" expression.

"What's more, it's impossible for all the major families not to know about a person like you who has accomplished such a legendary feat. If nothing else, they at least know your habits and preferences so as not to offend you or to win you over. Humph, these twists and turns are also their way of scheming for survival."

I'm super, box!
