Stray Chapter 45: Your body…(fog

Open the door and walk outside. What appears in front of Fujimaru Rika is a long, ring-shaped corridor. The walls are smooth and seemingly bright stainless steel, and the floor seems to be waxed. It is exaggerated to say that it can be used as a Use as a mirror.

In the center of the ceiling above, there are lights embedded in the interior, emitting a soft and bright light, illuminating the entire corridor brightly... For a moment, the girl still thought she had returned Chaldea.

Is this workshop too advanced?

At least for the first seventeen years of Fujimaru's life, all I saw was the advanced base in Chaldea, built in the isolated South Pole, and it was always like this of a scene.

To be frank, this place is completely different from the "Magic Workshop" in Tatsuka's impression of Fujimaru. It doesn't look ancient and mysterious at all, but it is too advanced, like some modern advanced laboratories or research centers. similar.

After calming down a bit, she looked down at the light strip on the ground again, then turned and walked to the side.

After hesitating for a while, she asked as she walked, "By the way, what kind of person is your Mr. Xia Ran?"

Although she always feels a little inexplicable to inquire about intelligence with a spiritual computer, she currently has only such a target person to inquire about. After all, the whole corridor is empty, and there is no other person in sight.

"Sorry, I don't understand what you mean."

Tonatiu replied coldly.

Although it has a high level of intelligence, it is not a real life after all, logic is greater than sensibility, so it is still completely incomprehensible to this kind of problem... After all, how can a machine be able to evaluate What kind of person is a person?

"Uh, okay..." Fujimaru Rika probably also discovered this problem, and frowned slightly, and quickly changed the subject after thinking, "You said before that this is the The Tower of Glory? Why is it called the Tower of Glory?"

"I also can't answer this question, your authority is not enough to inquire." Tonatiu's answer was emotionless.

Of course, the girl was once again deflated on this issue.

But she didn't think too much, because even Skaha didn't know the truth about the Tower of Glory. The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows has always been in the Kingdom of Shadows watching the outside world, carefully exploring changes, Trace back to the source.

But because she never came out, although her keen intuition avoided the possibility of her being touched, the things she could see and discover were very limited, let alone the truth that was specifically hidden by Xia Ran.

Skaha also only knows that the magician has distorted the rules on the surface of the entire planet with his own fantasy, thinking that the biggest difficulty is breaking the spell itself, but he doesn't know that the other party has also done the second layer. Insurance.

As for the first-generation Hassan mountain old man, although he broke into the tower in person and saw the truth about the era of the Holy Spear Liberation and Pinning, he eventually returned injured, and the delay caused his injury to deteriorate seriously. It was too late to even explain.

The swordsman never imagined that the chain of spells that he had cut off in the end did not fall apart, but was able to come alive—

As if the runes themselves had spirituality and will, they turned into a ferocious giant snake, tightly wrapping around his body, gnawing at his flesh, strangling his body or injecting corrosion into his body of venom.

It's like a gangrene attached to the bone, and even a real threat to the cornerstone of the crown assassin's existence——

I don't know if the magician deliberately pinpointed the time and set the time bomb. Anyway, this Assassin had just barely returned to the Land of Shadows, and after entering the safe area, his blood volume had already dropped to the dying line. .

The restraining technique with only half of it left has passed through his flesh, bone marrow, etc., and is about to damage the most important spiritual core.

So the assassin can only race against the clock to retreat and heal his wounds, because maybe another second delay will cause him to collapse directly and dissipate in the world, so he has no time to explain anything, and he didn't even have time to talk to Caleb. The bottom group meet.

And even so, I don't know if he can survive it. Skaha just thinks that the probability is about 50 to 50. You can't have too many expectations.

Basically after a brief encounter with that magician, a champion Assassin was basically knocked out in a head-to-head.

Although it is said that it is precisely because of this danger that those who are close to death are able to escape, and it is not so easy to escape the crisis of life and death in the future, and there is still the disaster of death.

—— Therefore, whether it is the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows or the Crown Assassin, they all feel that this is reasonable and reasonable.

There is no doubt that the opponent is a Beast-level existence. No matter whether it is a beast or not, it is a catastrophe that hinders the continuation of the human world. At least seven crowned servants are required to appear and attack together.

If a single Crown Servant faces each other directly, and can easily retreat without injury, then it is worth doubting whether the other party is just pretending, or it is simply some other problem.

But because of this, in the end, Chaldea and others still did not get any useful information. Regarding the information about the Tower of Glory, Skaha originally wanted to talk about it when he was on the airship, but he was later taken aboard by the airship. things distracted.

And she also felt that there was no need to rush for a while, after all, that tower was the magician's workshop, whether it was necessary or not, it was a matter to be considered at the last minute... After the information about the Lion King and the holy spear in her hand, she felt that the latter was the real focus.

Fujimaru Rika naturally does not know what the Tower of Glory is and its importance, nor does she know that she is currently in the real center of the singularity. The singularity is the culprit.

"Then another question, where is this... I mean, the location of the tower itself or something?"

The girl was not conscious at all at the moment, but was very relaxed, walking lightly in the corridor with a smile on her face, while continuing to question the magic artificial intelligence, trying to obtain more information.

"This is on the island of Britain, the capital of Camelot, the border of the chalk city..." Tonatiu finally answered this question, making Fujimaru Rika a little relieved, she was afraid to ask anything It would be embarrassing to keep hitting the wall.

But you are actually near the Camelot capital?

She didn't expect this answer, but under her preconceived notions, she immediately found a reasonable explanation-

It must be because the owner of this workshop is also trying to solve the problem of this singularity, but he can't find the opportunity, so he did not act rashly, but set up the position next to the capital of Camelot, which is convenient for the moment. Watch, wait for the opportunity to come, right?

Well, yes, it must be like this!

In this way, under the atmosphere of asking and answering, and occasionally not answering, she became more and more natural, and she also collected more and more information, but because all of this information could be known to her, she had to The core key is not touched.

On the contrary, under the preconceived brain supplement, Fujimaru Rika became more and more unshakable to believe that this time, like in other journeys, he encountered key "reinforcements" and "saviors".

Just like Mr. Siegfried who appeared when he faced the evil dragon, the master here must be a reliable, stable, powerful, and trustworthy Servant! It must be so!

The girl came to the top of the tower through a device similar to an elevator, but it should be operated by magic. The reason why she knew it was the top floor of the tower was because she found that there was only one section of the circular corridor.

And there is only one solitary door. Unlike the previous layout, there are many different areas and rooms... It feels like coming to the roof of the school, so naturally it can only be the top floor.

"I don't have any job at the moment. The Xia Ran who can receive you is inside. You can go in directly." gone.

Wait, what's this weird saying?

Does that Mr. Xia Ran still exist in plural form at the same time? Fujimaru Rika felt a little strange. She hesitated for a while, but she still didn't open the door and went in directly. She still stood politely in the circular corridor.

"Come in." A gentle and calm voice came from inside.

"Excuse me..." The girl just opened her mouth and knocked on the door, and then realized that she didn't need to do it at all. This kind of development that the other party had already responded before her questioning made her a little bit awkward.

Taking a deep breath again, she calmed herself down and gently pushed open the only door on this floor.

The interior space suddenly opened up, and a spacious hemispherical hall appeared in front of her eyes, like a space capsule on the top of some modern towers, surrounded by transparent glass curtain walls, overlooking the plain outside and city.

And beyond the scenery, such as the layered sea of ​​clouds.

It was only now that Fujimaru Rika really saw the outside from the inside of the tower, and he was stunned - is this tower so high? It's all gone straight into the sky!

But isn't it too high-profile to do so? If such a tower is built near Camelot, will it really not be besieged?

"Welcome from afar, Master of Chaldea..."

The calm voice from before rang out, forcing the girl to turn her attention back, and then she saw another person in this spacious hall, a young man wearing a simple black robe with a sense of wizard mystery .

Besides that, no one else is here. It seems that there is only one other person in the entire tower except that Tonatiu.

It's not a girl, and there are no other girls... Could it be that my clothes are actually...

In an instant, such a strange thought appeared like lightning, severing all other thoughts in Fujimaru Tachika's mind, occupying all her threads, making her stand on the spot.

A girl's heart is really a very strange thing.

Although the cause of humanistic restoration is a great cause for all mankind and to regain the future of mankind, logically speaking, under this major premise, other details can be ignored.

But...but...

When she thought about the possibility that she might have been seen by a magician of the same age in front of her while she was in a coma, Fujimaru Rika suddenly felt that she might as well not be rescued by the other party.

Perhaps it would be better to just die, instead of having to face such a humiliating and embarrassing situation...

Look, so the girl's heart is really a very strange and very subtle thing...

It is clear that only if she, the last Master of mankind, is alive, Humanity will have a future. Otherwise, only the Servants will be unable to do anything. If they are not summoned, they will not even have the possibility of fighting.

But because of such a trivial matter, Fujimaru Rika subconsciously felt that she would rather not be rescued, because her modesty as a girl overcame the great sentiment of devoting herself to reclaiming the future of mankind.

“?”

Xia Ran tilted her head slightly in confusion, wondering why this girl reacted so strangely.

Do you look scary?

But he didn't care much, he coughed lightly and said, "By the way, your body..."

"I, me, my, my... my body! What, what happened to my body..." For a moment, it was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, Fujimaru Rika was extremely excited and stuttered. interrupted him.

In addition, her cheeks were flushed, and the top of her head looked like an old-fashioned steam locomotive was about to come out of steam, and she almost cried out in anxiety.

This, this person is too much!

Too, my wife, my wife is unclean! I watched it, and now I still plan to comment on it?

“…”

“…”

"There should be no problem, right? I just wanted to ask how your body is feeling now, how is your recovery going, and if there is any discomfort..." Xia Ran twitched the corners of her mouth.

Isn't this the best way to start a conversation quickly and lighten the mood?

What is this girl doing? Why was the reaction so intense, did he say something he shouldn't have said?
