It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 30 Golden Elixir Plan
In the form of a spirit, Xia Zhi rushed back at lightning speed. As soon as he appeared, what came into view was the devastated scene of the gate of Liudong Temple.

However, the attacking enemy has quietly retreated, and it seems that they did not really shake the defense line of Liudong Temple. It is believed that no casualties were caused, which is good news.

This made him feel relieved. After all, what he was most worried about was something like this. He had only been out for a short while, but even his base camp was wiped out by the enemy... Fortunately, the worst situation did not occur.

As a Caster class that specializes in building positions, Medea is still very powerful in defensive battles.

"Hello……"

Xia Zhi saluted the ancient swordsman who was standing outside the mountain gate. He was wearing a purple kimono and straw sandals, with a long dark blue ponytail casually combed behind his head, a branch lightly in his mouth, and his arms folded in front of his chest. Then he quickly stepped into Ryudo Temple.

Although he didn't know this strange colleague very well, he vaguely knew where he came from.

After all, when he was leaving, Medea had said that she was going to perform a summoning in violation of the rules - according to the rules of the Holy Grail War, only magicians can summon servants, but the Caster class is strictly speaking a magician.

This ancient swordsman must be the product of the illegal summoning by the Greek witch.

Now is not the time to delve into this, so Xia Zhi did not waste time greeting the other party and went straight to Liudong Temple.

The temple courtyard has maintained its original appearance as always, and has obviously not been disturbed by the outside world. This is enough to prove that the invading enemy is indeed only wreaking havoc at the outer gate. At this moment, a female magician in a dark purple robe is standing quietly in the courtyard.

"Is Master okay?"

Xia Zhi was brief and to the point, and the first thing he asked was about Toosaka Rin.

After all, the Master is the lifeblood of the Servant. Once the Master is killed, no matter how strong the Servant is, he will not be able to maintain his existence... Especially in his situation, I really don't want to guess what the result of this abnormal exit will be.

"It's right there. After repelling the enemy, it went back to the room... It'll be fine, don't worry."

Medea glanced gently and waved her finger gracefully, pointing in a certain direction.

Xia Zhi looked in the direction indicated by her slender fingertips, and saw that the light was on in the room over there, and the figure of a girl with twin ponytails could be seen through it. He couldn't help but frown slightly, because he didn't see such light and shadow when he just came in.

"This Liudong Temple has become my workshop. As I gradually deepen the construction of my position, many things - even things that are close to magic - will become possible in this courtyard." The witch from Greece said slowly.

Although she has not yet reached that state, after all, this magic position was just occupied at noon today, and she has not had time to carry out comprehensive construction and in-depth consolidation. However, with her skills and abilities, she has been able to achieve many extraordinary things here.

For example, in the current situation, it is not difficult for her to distort the image and location of the Master, which also provides a kind of safety guarantee.

"...awesome."

Xia Zhi thought about it carefully and quickly accepted this explanation.

After all, strictly speaking, he had already experienced a similar lesson in school before. The tall heroic spirit who used a chain dagger and wore a blindfold taught him a good lesson. Before the sudden attack, even he did not realize where the other party was.

It can only be said that in a space similar to a barrier or a field, the party in control undoubtedly has the home advantage. This aptly warned Xia Zhi, making him understand that he cannot rely entirely on his own magical perception.

"Who are the enemies?"

"..."

"..."

"It's Hercules..." Medea narrowed her eyes slightly, and there was a hint of heaviness in her words.

"This great hero actually responded to the call with the rank of Berserker. I'm afraid he is the strongest Heroic Spirit in this Holy Grail War. If his Master hadn't been unwilling to charge head-on, my position wouldn't have been able to stop him."

She was very familiar with that violent figure. As they were both characters in Greek mythology, they had inevitably dealt with each other because of Jason. It was obviously impossible for her to say that she didn't know Hercules.

Hercules? Berserker?

That berserker giant actually has such a background?
Xia Zhi reacted quickly and realized who the enemy group that had just attacked Liudong Temple was. He was a little surprised. He had never thought that the crazy muscular monster would be the famous Hercules.

A person's name is like the shadow of a tree. This name is no longer simply well-known.

After all, as we all know, there are only two kinds of heroes in Greek mythology, one is Hercules and the other is the others.

Recalling the brief confrontation, Xia Zhi's face grew solemn. He felt that it was fortunate that the great hero had gone berserk and his fighting skills had been greatly reduced... As expected, his plan had to be implemented faster. If he delayed any further, he would probably run out of time.

This is already the third day. If we follow the plan that the Holy Grail War will end in a week at most, it is already the halfway point of the Holy Grail War's preset cycle...

Besides, it is not certain that the battle will last for a week - who can assert that the battle will not come to an abrupt end on the fourth or fifth day, or even earlier?
It's all possible!
It was like he had just run into Hercules in the residential area, and right after that the other party came to Ryudo Temple and launched an attack. He didn't want to delve into whether there was any coincidence or not, because it was meaningless.

Fuyuki City is neither big nor small. If multiple servant-level combat forces are deployed on this battlefield, the probability of collision between them is still too high.

Shaking his head, he thought quickly, narrowing his eyes and revealing a hint of murderous intent: "If Liudong Temple really can't stop the enemy, can we keep a backup plan... Regarding the tumor on the mountain, is there any possibility of making use of it?"

"what?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Medea's eyes: "This is really unexpected. I thought you wouldn't consider using this trick."

After all, she subconsciously felt that this person should be the more upright type of servant.

The main reason is that the two sides have little contact and the other party performed better.

"Anyway, it won't affect anyone else. We have already sent away the residents of Yuanzang Mountain. Besides, even if we don't use it, it will collapse in the end, right?" The young man said calmly.

"That's right..."

The Greek witch thought for a moment and nodded. She didn't like to be tied down. Since there was indeed such a crisis at the moment and she happened to have such an advantage, it would be better to prepare an extra trump card.

"If you really want to do that, I can provide you with some assistance... At present, I am too busy to do anything else. I can only ensure the safety of Liudong Temple. If I want to take care of other places, I am afraid it will take more time, but the enemy will obviously not give us this opportunity."

"It's not impossible..."

Xia Zhi seemed to be thinking, then nodded slowly. After all, he still had to put on some surface work, so as not to arouse Medea's suspicion in the last step.

Fortunately, the other party was not a fairy in the paradise like Vivian who had her own lie detector, and did not realize that the seemingly loyal colleague actually had evil intentions.

With just a few simple words, the matter was finalized and taken over.

As long as he could successfully convince Medea, it would be a piece of cake to obtain the exact location of the "tumor" and her technical support. And Medea's busyness was also within his expectations, after all, he had learned about her tight schedule and position construction plan.

For Medea, the most important task at the moment is to concentrate on building a magic base in Liudong Temple. She has put almost all her efforts into this and obviously has no intention of leaving this holy place.

It can be said that all these developments unfolded naturally like the script he had imagined in advance. Furthermore, since he directly stated that the purpose of the action was destruction, it was reasonable to perform his actions here, without any pretense. At this time, a voice came from afar -

"What's going on, Assassin? Didn't Emiya come over?"

Toosaka Rin opened the door and walked out, looking a little listless. She had just gone back to count her gems again and finally concluded with some dejection that she had indeed remembered it wrong, but she was still frustrated.

Seeing Assassin talking to Caster in the yard, and looking like he was coming back empty-handed, the girl couldn't help but ask one more question even though she already knew the outcome.

"No, the other side is very vigilant..."

Xia Zhi looked at the master's expression and had some guesses in his mind, but pretended to be completely unaware of it.

He had no idea about gemstones and he shouldn't have known...

"Is it really not possible? That troublesome guy..." Toosaka Rin forced herself to cheer up, she looked worried, "Does that guy understand the situation? Does he really know what it means to fight alone?"

Even though they had no actual contact, they were classmates in the same school after all, so she naturally knew Emiya Shirou.

She might not know enough about other aspects, but as a magician, Toosaka Rin was sure that the guy was definitely not professional. He might not even know about the Holy Grail War and was just brought in to make up the numbers.

Originally, she was thinking that for Sakura's sake, she could form an alliance with the other party, on the one hand to strengthen her own side's strength, and on the other hand to protect this ignorant guy who knew nothing in disguise.

As he is now, knowing nothing and alone in this dangerous Fuyuki City, he might be just a walking bag of experience in the eyes of other servants.

"Master, maybe we can just tie him up and bring him here?"

The witch next to him spoke slowly and made a suggestion.

"Tie him up? No way!"

Toosaka Rin subconsciously denied it, "Then it's equivalent to hostility. Maybe we'll have to kill each other first..."

Even if both sides don't suffer losses, I will probably have to pay a heavy price. Besides, there is no way to hold back in a real fight. If I'm not careful, I'm afraid I'll be stabbed through by Shirou Emiya first.

"No, Master. As long as you can bring the person to me, I can help you take the ownership of that person's Servant directly. In this way, it can be regarded as completing the set goal, right?"

Medea chuckled, her deep voice seemed to be trying to persuade or entice: "Maybe it's a good thing for that person. He doesn't have this awareness, so there's no need for him to participate in this war. What do you think?"

"Directly seize the ownership from the slave?"

Miss Toosaka was visibly stunned. How could such a thing be possible? The magicians of the Age of Gods were so powerful that modern magic contracts could not restrain them?
The young man next to him also had a strange look in his eyes. He thought about it seriously and felt that he might have to re-examine his colleague's technical ability. His professional quality could not be said to be excellent, but rather very excellent.

It seems that no matter what you think, the other party can provide technical support.

This is very nice!

"But...but..." At this time, the Master still seemed to have some concerns and had not made up her mind.

"..."

"..."

"By the way, Master, there is one more thing I want to tell you—"

Xia Zhi thought about it, and decisively told the girl a bombshell piece of information: "The Servant on the opposite side should be Saber."

I occupy the Assassin class, Medea is the Caster class, and the previous black giant should be the Berserker class, so there are not many classes left, and I can almost estimate them by the process of elimination.

That excellent panel must be unlikely to be a Rider, and when he was forced into a desperate situation in the battle with the Titan, he did not reveal any trump cards such as the mount.

Among the remaining top three riders, Archer, as an archer, should strictly speaking be a ranged profession, which requires powerful shooting type weapons, or special abilities related to shooting weapons.

Lancer is a spearman, and the only heroes that meet the requirements are heroes that use long weapons as their main weapons, but it doesn't seem to meet the requirements.

Then the only thing left is Saber's result, and besides...even if the result is not that, it doesn't matter, because that's how he reasoned, and it's reasonable and well-founded. The main point is to give the Master a little bit of stimulation.

"W-What? His Servant is Saber?!"

It was a completely predictable reaction, Toosaka Rin had an expression of shock and disbelief on her face.

But it is understandable. Although one's own failure is sad, the success of a classmate is even more heartbreaking... Especially in this situation, Toosaka Rin has worked so hard to save stones for so long just to draw Saber.

As a result, she was under tremendous financial pressure, risked bankruptcy, and ultimately failed to get an SSR from the card pool...

A zero-氪 seal next door who knows nothing actually pulled out a miracle with a single draw?
Who can understand this kind of pain?!

Although her face was not twisted beyond recognition due to jealousy, the woman was clearly gritting her teeth: "Tie him up! You must tie that guy up for me!"

----

----

Although we have decided to carry out the kidnapping plan, we still need to do some preparatory work.

As the night deepened, Xia Zhi brought the materials provided by Miss Witch to the location of the tumor in Yuanzang Mountain.

Collecting materials is a very troublesome task, but considering that this is a backup plan, Medea was generous enough to give out a part of the materials prepared for today and provided careful guidance.

Anyway, destruction is always easier than construction, not to mention accelerating the pace of destruction on work that others have already prepared.

In the eyes of the witch, this matter is very simple and can be accomplished very easily.

But Xia Zhi didn't think so. He came here to cause trouble, but he didn't come here just for the sake of destruction...

He followed Medea's instructions and accurately found the location of the "tumor". It was located at the intersection of several earth veins, which matched the terrain and was very hidden. If he were to explore it by himself, it would probably take several months or even years.

In the magical vision, the flow of spiritual power in the earth veins of Yuanzang Mountain is almost visible at a glance, and even the large hole below that is overflowing with original magic power seems to be faintly visible.

Subconsciously simulating it in his mind, Xia Zhi was surprised to find that he could use this joint node as the center of the formation to arrange a magic formation full of symbolic meaning, turning the entire mountain into a huge "alchemy furnace" between heaven and earth -

The great holy grail inside is the natural golden elixir!
