Chapter 206 Unexpected Trust
In an island country in the Far East, there is a magic ceremony called [Holy Grail War].
According to legend, once every sixty years, the Holy Grail that can realize any wish will come there. At that time, seven masters will summon seven servants to fight each other, and the last pair of masters and slaves who survive will be able to fight each other. Get the Holy Grail, so as to realize your wish.
This is also recorded in the [Common Sense] that Lucia obtained from the [Unknown Spirit Foundation], and it is also the basis of common sense. After all, he is a sub-Servant himself, and the first thing he knows is about the Holy Grail War Intelligence, because generally speaking, Servants are one of those magical miracles that only appear in the Holy Grail War.
However, the Clock Tower scoffed at this ceremony, thinking that it was impossible to achieve any wish with the magic ceremony in the countryside alone, and decided that it was just nonsense, not even a chat after dinner, and could only be reduced to a joke .
This view persisted until a decade ago.
Ten years ago, in the Fourth Holy Grail War that took place in the Far East, the former monarch El-Melloi who went to participate in the war, that is, the older brother of Lynis-Kenneth El-Mello Archizolti, was in He died in the Holy Grail War, and even the magic engravings were destroyed, leaving only the last 10 to 20 percent of the original engravings to be recovered.
Leaving aside the fact that El-Melloi, who was the fourth family of the Clock Tower at that time, was torn apart by the death of the monarch, in fact, the current monarch, El-Melloi II, also participated in that Holy Grail War.
In other words, the former monarch and the current monarch participated in that magic ceremony at the same time.
However, the previous monarch died, but the current monarch - II survived.
The reasons for this are currently unknown.
And in that Holy Grail War, as one of the seven masters, the Second Emperor did indeed use the holy relic to summon a certain heroic spirit.
"The relic is a fragment of a cloak, red."
Gray explained to Lucia: "The heroic spirit master summoned in the last Holy Grail War is the legendary Alexander the Great."
King Alexander.
Just hearing this name, Liu Xia couldn't help but stop breathing.
As in the history of mankind, there are few heroes who can fight across the continent. Alexander the Great has a very high reputation in the whole world. As a heroic spirit, he is undoubtedly a top-notch, even an exceptional existence. , is several times stronger than the current Liu Xia,
His current strength can only be regarded as second-rate among Heroic Spirits.
"However, just a few days ago, a piece of the red cloak that Master used to summon the holy relic of Alexander the Great disappeared from the safe in the office."
Gray continued: "The prisoner only left an invitation letter for the magic eye collection train in the safe. Master thought that the other party might appear here, so I boarded this train with Master. The thief who stole the holy relic Probably on this train."
I see.
Although Lucia found out that the Second King and Gray would board this train, he actually didn't know the reason why they would come. After all, with El-Melloi's financial strength, it was really difficult to photograph a few pairs of magic eyes, and The second generation's magic attainment is only second-rate, not necessarily higher than Liu Xia's, and he may not be able to control it freely after getting the magic eye.
Even if it is a natural magic eye, many magicians cannot fully control it, let alone transplant it to themselves.
A typical example is the adopted sister of the Second Emperor, Reinis. She has a pair of natural magic eyes, so her eyes will turn into a flame color, but she has not fully controlled it until now, and usually needs special eye drops to suppress it.
"Wait a minute, you said the thief stole the holy relic from the office safe?"
Lucia keenly noticed something was wrong, "I remember that most of the magicians in the Clock Tower use magic locks, right?"
"Yes."
Gray nodded honestly, "Master's safe has two types of locks: physical locks and magic locks."
"Then here comes the problem."
Liu Xia pointed out: "Since there is a magic lock, how did the prisoner steal it? Theoretically speaking, only magicians with matching magic wavelengths can open the magic lock? Besides the magician himself, there are Who can open this magic lock?"
"Eh?"
Gray couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and then a look of sudden understanding appeared on his face, "Yes, why didn't I think of it... I will tell Master immediately!"
"To be honest, I think Mr. Nishi must have thought of it a long time ago."
Lucia glanced at Grey, who was excited and looked like she knew some terrible secret, then looked her up and down, "It's useless for you to go there now."
"Well……"
Gray couldn't help but choked when he heard the words, and under Lucia's gaze, his face couldn't help becoming a little hot again.
Liu Xia can think of this just by listening to her retelling it once. Master has known it for such a long time, so she must be able to think of it... She is the most stupid. It has been several days since the incident happened, but she still thinks about such a simple thing. well.
She couldn't help but feel the guilt of 'I'm so sorry for not being useful'.
"It's been a day since you got in the car, have you found any clues now?"
Lucia didn't care about her shyness either, and continued to ask Grey.
"No, not yet."
Gray shook his head, "We've been searching since last night, but we still haven't found any clues. This morning, while everyone was eating in the dining car, Master also investigated alone, and found nothing."
No wonder I didn't see El Mello II in the dining car this morning.
"That... Mr. Liangyi, can you help me find it with Master?"
Gray was a bit hesitant to speak, but in the end she couldn't help blurting out her request, "My brain is not very good, so I can't help Master solve problems, but Mr. Maungta can quickly discover many things that I can't find below, so...if Mr. Liangyi is willing to help Master, he will be able to find the thief who stole the holy relic soon!"
Gray trusts Lucia very much.
Not only because of the erroneous help of the Shuangmao Pagoda, but also because of the powerful insight and mature thoughts and attitudes shown by Liu Xia, and the strength is extremely powerful, even monsters and seals that rivaled the Holy Lance None of the executors are his opponents.
Lucia narrowed her eyes slightly.
Honestly, this is a pretty thankless request.
If he agrees, it will only bring him trouble, and there is no benefit at all.
only……
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
At this moment, a girl's exclamation resounded through the entire train, breaking the slightly silent atmosphere in the room.
After hearing the voice, Gray rushed out of the room before he even had time to get an answer from Lucia, and ran towards the direction of the voice.
Lucia stood up from the bed, the thoughts in her heart gradually became firm, and then she also walked over behind her. In the room, there was only a strip of silver mercury curled around the bed where Bazzett was sitting. , guarding against her possible escape.
