Su Xiao looked around the situation in the basement. When he just entered this derivative world, there was a malicious gaze staring at him. After seeing the owner of that gaze, Su Xiao roughly guessed what was going on.
This time, he replaced Berserker, which was Lancelot who fought before.
Killing Lancelot, Su Xiao did not get any reward. It was a test. Killing Lancelot could replace the other party's rank, and if he could not kill it, he would be trapped in the knot forever.
The derivative world that Su Xiao entered this time was not small, but the battlefield was not big, just a city, and the main story was simple.
200 years ago, in order to reach the root of, which was the dream of all the magicians, the three magic families joined hands to call out the Holy Grail, a 'energy machine' that could fulfill any dream.
There were three magic families who participated in this matter, but there was only one Holy Grail, so the conflict between the three families intensified.
After a series of competitions, the three families agreed to use a small scale competition to determine the ownership of the Holy Grail.
The first Holy Grail War officially began. The rules at that time were not perfect. The three magic families fought fiercely, but they all ended in failure.
After the first Holy Grail War, another big Holy Grail was about to appear after 60 years.
The second time, the rules of the Holy Grail War became more and more complete, and the impact on the world structure was even smaller.
However, the three great clans still did not abide by the rules. Although the 'Order Curse System' had been completed, the Holy Grail War still ended in failure.
Just like that, the Holy Grail War was held every 60 years, and the rules were perfected.
As time went on, it was the fourth Holy Grail War.
The current Holy Grail War already had detailed rules, and the rules were as follows.
1. Absorb magic power from the Earth Vein(the initial structure of the Holy Grail).
2. Choose Master(After storing enough magic power to summon seven Servants(Follower), the Holy Grail will select a magician suitable to become Master and grant the mark of omen. The candidates must quickly start preparing for the summoning ceremony.)
3. Summoning Ritual(Summoning Servant requires a complicated magic ritual. As the prototype of the heroic spirit and summoner, there is no need to say the compatibility between the spirit and the flesh. The most important thing is to have a deep connection or medium with the heroic spirit. Summoning Servant is a ritual that can not be reached by human hands. However, with the help of the big Sacred Cup, it can not be possible.)
4. Grand Sacred Cup Link
5. Carving a spell for Master
6. Summoning Servant
7. Master and Servant Contract
8. War Begin
9. Recovers the soul of the deceased Servant(Servant)
10. Open the path to the 'roots'
To put it simply, the seven sorcerers were chosen by the big holy grail, and then summoned the temple-servant(servant, spirit) to fight, and the final sorcerer got the holy grail.
As for the seven spirits, in principle, these seven spirits must die, because the holy grail needed their souls to be full.
Although Su Xiao appeared as a spirit, he did not have most of the characteristics of the spirit, it was a fake spirit. In addition to being strong enough, his soul had nothing to do with the holy grail. His life and death had nothing to do with the appearance of the holy grail.
Compared with the reincarnation paradise, the ability of the big grail was not worth mentioning.
Su Xiao had his own body, so he could exist without mana supply, but once Su Tong Yan Ye died, Su Xiao's stay in the Sacred Cup World would be greatly reduced. He would stay for at most two days before he would be forced back.
Now he did not know what the main mission was, and the talent awakening mission was about to be activated. Once forced back, the loss was extremely heavy.
Now Su Xiao had replaced Berserker. If there was no contractor who was similar to him, other spirits could appear normally.
Moreover, if there was contractor who was similar to Su Xiao in strength, he would not become a fake spirit.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao was more or less clear about the current situation. Although he was a fake spirit, Zhong Tong Yan Ye could not have any effect on him. As for the three spells in the other party's hands, they were used to control a dead spirit.
If Su Xiao saw that Jian Tongyan Ye was wrong, he could kill the other party completely. As long as he could find a new mana supply, considering that there were not many magicians in the world of the holy grail, Su Xiao was ready to spare the other party's life first.
Su Xiao withdrew his gaze from Jian Tongyan Ye. Zhong Tongyan Ye's body relaxed and gasped for breath. It was not a good experience to be stared at by Su Xiao.
"Then, deal with you first."
Su Xiao raised his left arm. His hand that was wrapped in a metal bracer was holding a strange worm. This thing wanted to drill into his skin and flesh when he just walked out of the space crack.
His two fingers exerted force, and the fat worm with a mouth full of sharp teeth was pinched into meat paste.
Su Xiao looked at the old man who was gradually retreating in the basement. He knew the information of this old man. His name was Sutong Inkstone. The patriarch of the three great magic arts family, the Yuntong family, had lived for 500 years.
Although the magician in the world of the holy grail could master some supernatural abilities, it was amazing to live for 500 years.
The reason why the Jian Tongye could live for 500 years was that he abandoned his original body and manipulated magic insects to form the body, which was turning himself into a engraved insect.
Standing in the basement, Jian Tongye looked like an old man, but it was just a leather bag, and the rotten and smelly leather bag was about to be damaged by the insects.
The method of immortality of Jian Tongye was somewhat similar to Orochimaru in the Naruto world, but the method Orochimaru used was much more high-end.
Orochimaru was independent of his own soul and entered a new physical container. If the container was broken, he would change it into a new container.
Meanwhile, Jian turned its original body into an engraved insect. These insects also needed to stay in the human body, but this method would cause the soul to wither gradually.
In the past, he only needed to change a body for decades, but now it needs to be changed once every few months.
The reason why he longed for the big Sacred Cup was very simple, eternal life.
In the basement.
Su Xiao walked to Jian Tong Yan Ye and wiped his hand on the other person's clothes. Jian Tong Yan Ye's mouth twitched, but he did not dare to move.
"I don't know who this heroic spirit is. Although the ceremony seems to be wrong, our Jian Tong family will help you win the victory of the Holy Grail War."
Jian Tong Yan, who found that the situation was wrong, stopped retreating and intended to negotiate with Su Xiao.
"That insect... is yours, right?"
A smile appeared on Su Xiao's face, and Jian Tong Yan also smiled.
"This is caused by the magic circuit of Jian Tong family. My son's magic talent is not good, so he can only..."
Boom!
Jian Tong Yan was about to throw the blame to Jian Tong Yan Ye, but a loud explosion came.
Clang.
A pale blue blade light suddenly appeared, and a withered head flew up.
With a plop, the head fell to the ground, and the headless body of the Jian Tongye fell to the ground.
"This..."
On the side, the face of the Duan Tong Yan Ye was full of disbelief, because the death of the Duan Tong dirty Inkstone was too simple.
"The speed is good, and the blade is sharp enough. Even compared to Saber(Sword Knight), the rank is not much worse."
The head of the Tongtong Nefarious Inkstone on the ground said.
"Don't think that magicians can't fight against heroic spirits. Whether it is the Holy Grail or heroic spirits, they are ultimately summoned or formed by us magicians."
The head of Jian Tongye sneered, and cracks began to appear on the withered face.
With a hum, a large number of engraved insects with wings rushed out of the body of Jian Tongye. The broken skin on the ground had long been withered and shattered.
