Chapter 177 Black Key, the Rider Group Staying Overnight
[Illustrated record has been updated]
【008：Kotomine Kirei】
[Character Information]: The first-class representative of the Holy Church...
[Hidden Information]: I like spicy food and am a frequent visitor to the Chinese restaurant "Hongzhou Banquet Hall·Taishan" in Fuyuki City. When he met Shirou Emiya here, Kotomine kept eating mapo tofu with his hands and mouth, and even Shirou was shocked by the momentum. Therefore, Kotomine is also known as "Mapo Priest", or "Mapo" for short.
[Recording conditions (1/2)]
1. Kill Kotomine Kirei (Completed)
2*: Make Mapo Tofu that even Kotomine Kirei admired (completed)
[Recording condition 1 has been completed. 】
[Reward: "Black Key" projection authority and full use of skills! 】
Turning his wrist, the projection magic unfolded, and several sword hilts suddenly appeared between Shuo Yue's fingers. With the infusion of magic power, the sharp sword blade popped out with a "swish", exuding a mysterious aura.
The Black Key is the exorcism equipment of the Holy Church. When traveling, you only need to carry the hilt of the sword. The sword body is generated by magic power. In a certain money-making mobile game, the "Black Key" was made into three pieces by the official frantically. This kind of gift is full of card pools, and has been complained by countless players as the "Dugu Nine Keys", and is regarded as a symbol of the black-faced African chieftain.
Even leaving aside the three-star ceremonials in the game, there are very few users of the Black Key in the Templar Church. Although it is a symbolic prop for the agent, it is difficult to use and has no physical damage power. There are not many users, not to mention that the black keys themselves are not very mysterious. Shuo Yue can completely project them without the help of the Destiny Illustrated Book.
Compared to the master-level Bajiquan rewarded by the hidden conditions, the reward for killing Kotomine Kirei seems to be much worse?
However, when the experience of 'Black Key Use Skill' was accepted by Shuo Yue, he understood the real preciousness of this reward.
"The Effect of Iron Armor·Cremation Ceremony."
With a flash of fire rising up, Shuo Yue threw out the black key in his hand, and threw out a smooth spiral trajectory, hitting the land in the distance. The strong wind whipped up by the impact enveloped the flames, and it looked like it rolled up a small Fire tornado.
The Holy Church opposes magic, but Shuo Yue has no such taboo, and is much better than the church members in terms of magic output.
"It has the power of at least three sections of magic chant, and it can be projected at any time. The throwing speed is extremely fast. It is more mysterious than hot weapons and can better kill enemies in the mysterious world." The young man looked at his masterpiece with satisfaction. nodded.
Whether it is the 'Iron Armor Effect' that increases the power of throwing, or the 'Cremation Code' that enchants the Black Keys with flames, they are all extremely superb techniques for using the Black Keys - and it is precisely because of the high training threshold that led to the Black Keys' failure. There are very few users.
But on the other hand, let’s look at the gods who use the black keys - Kirei Kotomine, the representative of the Holy Church; Hier of the Buried Organization; Shirou Tokisada, Amakusa... In addition, in the FGO radio drama "Heritage of Heroic Spirits", In the Drama CD "Edmond Dantès, King of the Grotto", Father Angelo Braga, the representative of the Holy Church, also used the black keys.
Obviously, just like the silver weapon setting in a certain world, strong people may not be able to use black keys, but those who can use black keys proficiently are the first-class combat power of the Templar Church.
Another hidden benefit is that in the future, opponents who use black keys will no longer be a threat to Shuo Yue. After all, Shuo Yue is now better at playing black keys than they are.
Suddenly, Shuo Yue's expression changed, she put away the black key in her hand and walked towards the outside of Liudong Temple.
At the door, Saber was already waiting with a serious face. When she saw Sakutsu approaching, she nodded slightly: "Kuu Maiya said that someone broke through the barrier."
She signed a contract with Sakutsu, so she informed her master through the causal thread as soon as she discovered the situation.
"I've sensed it too. I didn't expect to have uninvited guests tonight - leave the Servant to you, and the Master to me for training." Not even bothering to change his spiritual clothes, Sakuyue gathered up her black and white kimono and stood side by side with Saber. Sensing a domineering magic power from far to near.
Lightning flashes filled the sky, and when the sacred cow made a low sound, the tension between Sakuyue and Saber immediately dissipated. The two looked at each other and laughed bitterly.
"Rider..."
"That guy is really disgusting."
In the end, the two of them did nothing, just watched quietly as Rider and his master, Weber, galloped over and landed in front of the two of them.
"Hey, Saber, and Brother Shuoyue, we're here to stay with you for one night!" Iskandar was as straight to the point as ever.
"Wait a minute, Rider, you should know that this is our position, right?" Saber held the sword in her hand, and the implication was obvious.
Aren't you afraid that Shuo Yueqing and I will take action directly and force you to leave?
What responded to her was the heroic laughter of the Conquering King:
"Hahaha, don't be so stingy, King of Knights, I come here with sincerity!" Saying this, Rider slapped the Master on the shoulder, causing Webb to grin in pain.
Just like in Warehouse Street, Rider chose to retreat without hesitation - in front of the highly mobile Sakutsu, the Master who was too fragile would be killed by him at the beginning of the battle.
Just like that, Iskandar came with his master in a big manner. As a servant, Iskandar was indeed sincere.
"Of course, I agree with this." Waver glared at his servant with some resentment, covered his shoulder, and said to Sakutsuki and Saber, "Although Kotomine Kirei is dead, Gilgamesh still knows where our base is. In order to prevent ordinary people from being affected, I have said goodbye to the old man. It is too late to set up a base now, so please allow us to stay overnight."
Speaking of this, Waver couldn't help but think of the conversation he had with Rider when they arrived.
"Rider, are you sure we want to stay at the enemy's base? Even if my magic power is not enough to build a workshop, I can just find a hotel."
"Are you stupid, kid? You leave the base that Brother Shuoyue personally arranged and go to a hotel that is easily attacked? Archer is still wandering around the city." Rider said, "What's more, although Brother Shuoyue is unscrupulous in tactics, he is also the most polite person. As long as you get his approval, you don't have to worry about sneak attacks, because he will entertain you generously and will fight you happily."
"Is... is that so?"
After the memory ended, looking at Shuoyue who was still pondering, Waver was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Rider: "In fact, there is another reason, that is, the king has been thinking about your generous meals since that night at the Hyatt Hotel, Shuoyue!"
"I agree with this point, so it seems Rider, you really have no hostility. "
"Don't put away your sword after hearing this, my king!" Shuoyue couldn't help but complain, "Even if it's just for show!"
"But Lord Shuoyue's cooking skills are really good." Saber's ahoge shook slightly, and she looked a little cute, "Is this a secret skill that can't be told to outsiders?"
The ahoge who said this seriously is also very cute... Shuoyue covered her mouth, covering the corners of her mouth, and coughed lightly:
"Okay, I'll let you stay overnight tonight, but if you want to eat the dinner I made myself, there is another condition-that is, Weber must beat me once."
"Eh, me?" Weber pointed at himself, unbelievable, "I want to beat you?"
"Yes, whatever you choose, as long as you can beat me, then I will treat you to dinner tonight, otherwise... please go and take care of the business of the convenience store at the foot of Liudong Temple and buy some instant noodles to deal with it." Shuoyue gathered his sleeves and said leisurely.
This was not a whim. In front of Waver, who had the "Eye of Insight", Sakutsuki was looking forward to him finding some unknown weaknesses and taking this opportunity to make up for them.
Perhaps because he was too deeply influenced by the "El-Melloi II Case Files", Sakutsuki did not realize that Waver at this time was not the second generation many years later, and his "Eye of Insight" did not have sufficient knowledge reserves to support it.
It was for this reason that after racking his brains, Waver finally chose the competition project that surprised everyone:
"In that case, let's use "that" to decide the winner!"
