Aslan did not care how Marisbury traded and discussed with the magi before him. He and Morgan had merely revealed the mastermind to everyone. At the same time, he still needed to ponder how to find an opportunity to rescue Sakura, and where those bastard Demon God Pillars might be right now.
Thinking carefully, there are only so many leylines in this area. If the Demon God Pillars truly intend to confront all the Heroic Spirits, they must find a leyline to set up their home field...
Could those bastards be hiding inside the mountain of Ryuudou Temple? That is the area where the Holy Grail is located.However, it is impossible to break through his various spells and control the Holy Grail in a short time. Aslan was confident about this. After all, without the Ten Rings, there was a considerable gap between the Demon God Pillars manipulating all magecraft and the existence sitting on that throne in his impression.
Thinking of this, Aslan immediately went to find Da Vinci, preparing to ask Da Vinci to send a portion of the puppets to the various leylines in this city. After all, no matter how one looked at it, this magus was going to stay and work in Antarctica forever, meaning she could already be called a colleague. In that case, asking a colleague for help should be no problem.
However, Da Vinci was not that kind of unruly person. Although she was a genius, she was surprisingly approachable. Moreover, sending out a few mechanical puppets was not a big deal at all.
Rather, if those Demon God Pillars were really hiding where the leylines were, this genius, who hadn't properly seen the Demon God Pillars yet, could use the recording equipment installed on the mechanical puppets to observe these so-called Demon Gods remotely. If her future colleague could really guess where those Demon God Pillars were hiding now, it would naturally be a good thing for her as well.
She... hmm... he... never mind. Whether Da Vinci should count as a man or a woman now was a question that couldn't be discussed clearly. Moreover, even this genius didn't care about gender now.
"If a genius's mind is limited by gender, then this genius is too cheap."
Do not forget the era in which Da Vinci was born, nor forget that Da Vinci's vision transcended the mundane. In the eyes of this genius, gender was not a problem at all. To some extent, this genius was the true egalitarian; compared to this genius, certain modern groups were nothing.
If Da Vinci didn't understand that it would be difficult for her alone to deal with the existence of seventy-two Demon God Pillars residing together, she would probably be anxiously searching for the location of the Demon God Pillars with a scalpel in one hand and a microscope in the other right now. Do not provoke any researcher; that is the principle.
After all, when a researcher gets a fixation, they can be terrifying. Otherwise, Frankenstein wouldn't have been born. Of course, who doesn't like Frankenstein in a bridal outfit?
Oh, that mad scientist who created Frankenstein back then didn't like her... that scientist was quite blind. But it doesn't matter; we aren't blind.
Look at Mr. Babbage, then look at a certain "Old Father of Fran" selling fake alcohol in a bar. One really wonders what that scientist who created Frankenstein was thinking.
Let's not mention that unlucky fellow; after all, that guy's ending was just like that.
One puppet after another donned simulated skin, looking not much different from normal humans. Then, they began to disperse towards the directions of the leylines pointed out by Aslan, preparing to investigate.
Meanwhile, at the foot of the mountain of Ryuudou Temple. In fact, there was no longer a temple on the mountain. As early as 10 years ago, due to the riot caused by the Holy Grail and the attacks constantly falling from the sky, half the mountain was blown to pieces. Even the current mountain body was pieced together by magi using various methods.
Even half the mountain was basically rock with no vegetation. Ryuudou Temple was left as only half a ruin. The temple originally at the entrance of the forest on the mountain had moved to another place. The good news was that the distance for a certain close friend of the Senji boy to go to school had shortened considerably.
At the same time, because the mountain peak was much more fragile, ordinary people were prohibited from going up the mountain as much as possible on weekdays. It could be said that this current mountain peak was really just for show. However, this made it more convenient for magi to enter the mountain body to observe the situation of the Greater Grail. It could be said that the entire interior of the reshaped mountain body had been completely transformed into a Greater Grail storage and observation post.
Perhaps because the destruction here back then was too severe, the people of this small city wanted to avoid talking about the stories of this extremely bizarre, puzzle-like mountain body. After all, although the explanation people received was that the mountain interior was filled with biogas for some reason and ignited to cause an explosion, it seemed problematic no matter how one thought about it.
Coupled with the fact that this country never lacked legends of gods and ghosts, many people guessed that the ghosts and gods sealed in this mountain peak had broken the seal and come out. Otherwise, why was there a temple on the mountain peak?
Although having a temple or shrine in a village in this country is a very normal thing, as a not-so-developed and famous seaside fishing village, enshrining a shrine here, especially one related to water gods or dragon gods, would be more consistent with common sense. After all, Buddhist temples in this country are generally related to suppressing evil spirits.
Perhaps the initial reason for establishing this temple was to mark the Holy Grail existing under this mountain. But it couldn't be helped that there were absolutely no shortage of people with various magical divergent thinking in this country, especially after the internet began to develop.
Even for a relatively normal matter, there would be various strange and bizarre answers on the internet, even answers full of fantasy and supernatural colors. Coupled with the emergence of the modern strange legend system, more and more young people began to pay attention to modern supernatural legends appearing everywhere, as well as some legendary stories specifically happening in the countryside.
A small city like Fuyuki naturally became part of the legend. Especially since this city had overlapping old and new sections, with the old district occupying a large area. At the same time, there were many Western buildings in the old district, and there were also many abandoned European settlement areas on the outskirts of the city, as well as the Einzbern family's forest where outsiders would get lost upon entering, and the abandoned church in the forest...
