Eighth Crown

By the time a few people returned to the church, half a day had passed.

"Miss Marble, you should stay in the church first. It's safe here for the time being, and there are vacant rooms in the back for people to live in."

Fujimaru Rika brought Marble into the church's chapel, "We're going to explore other areas of SE.RA.PH next, we can't accompany you here, you can find a place to hide first and wait until we come back. It's not too late to come out."

"Eh? Eh!? Are you going to leave me here alone? Please don't do this!"

Hearing this, Marble immediately showed a very repulsive and frightened look, "What if an enemy breaks in during this period? I have no servants by my side, so I can't resist it at all?"

This is a space that has not been digitized. In other words, purely data-based monsters, such as hostile programs, cannot break in, but if it is a Servant, it will be another matter.

According to BB, there are less than 30 followers in SE.RA.PH, and all of them are forced to fall into madness. They will kill anyone they see. Once they break into this church, they may indeed chase after them. Chopping at Marble, she would most likely die in that way.

Of course, this is Fujimaru Tachika's view.

But from Liu Xia's point of view, even if a Servant really broke into this place, this woman would never have the slightest accident. Instead, she should be worried about that innocent and unfortunate Servant.

However, this was the case when Liu Xia saw through the identity of the other party, and the others, whether it was Emiya or Meltrilith, didn't seem to be aware of the truth.

"Well, that does make sense."

Fujimaru Rika was in a bit of a dilemma. It was really inappropriate to leave Marble here alone when a Servant might break in at an unknown time.

"If that's the case, then let me stay."

Seeing this, Emiya pondered for a while, and then took the initiative to make such a proposal to Fujimaru Tachika, "If you are exploring SE.RA.PH, it should be enough to have Kuramime and Mert. Both of them are very strong. I can't help much if I go, and since this church is our current stronghold, it shouldn't be left unguarded."

If the only stronghold was seized when they were out, they would not even be able to cry. At that time, Fujimaru Rika's body would be hard to resist computerization. In view of this, the guarding stronghold should also be is a necessary behavior.

"That's right, then you all try to be careful, Miss Marble will ask Senior Emiya."

Fujimaru Rika thought about it and agreed with the proposal, and decided to keep Marble and Emiya in the church together.

"That's great! Is your name Wei Gong? Sounds like an Oriental surname? This year Guigeng? Are you married?"

Marble suddenly showed an overjoyed expression, and then chased Emiya and began to ask some strange questions, turning the crisis scene of hugging together for warmth into an embarrassing blind date venue.

Wei Gong suddenly felt overwhelmed, and couldn't help but feel a little tired.

After Marble was properly placed, Fujimaru Rika took Lucia and Meltrilith, left the church again, and walked towards other areas.

Before leaving, Liu Xia glanced at Emiya, who remained in the church.

good luck.

I hope you don't get spoiled when we get back.

The relationship between Liu Xia and Wei Gong was average, and there was no need to maintain a good relationship. Besides, even if he died here, he could be summoned again in Chaldea, so he had no intention of talking too much, so as not to startle the snake.

…………

after leaving the church.

The three of them returned to the labyrinth, and everything they saw from the front, back, left, and right turned transparent, and there were many hostile programs dangling in front of them.

"It's about exploring the maze, but where should we start?"

Fujimaru Rika pondered and looked at Meltri Lilith, "Lilith, do you know how many areas there are in this SE.RA.PH?"

"How many areas are there?"

Meltrilis heard the words and replied casually: "There are quite a few, hair, chest, wrists, flanks, thighs, calves, soles of feet, etc. These are all transformed from the original oilfield base facilities. from the area.”

"The hair area is the location of the main entrance, and it is also a fusion area where various power sources are stacked. Although I passed by yesterday, I haven't actually searched it thoroughly."

"You already know what the chest and thighs correspond to. The wrists and flanks are the original console area and the desalination plant, respectively, and the calves and soles of the feet are the abandoned yard and the excavation platform area."

Thinking about it this way, there are actually quite a few partitions in SE.RA.PH.

To explore all of them, I am afraid it will take at least a few days.

But this is also impossible.

Liu Xia's purpose was to find and defeat the remaining labyrinth guards. Although Meltrilith had a different goal from his, she also needed to defeat those labyrinth guards to weaken her opponent.

Among the labyrinth guards, apart from Meltrilith and Parsonlip, they only know Suzuka Gozen.

But Suzuka Gozen... with the ability to reduce 90% of damage, she may be a more troublesome person than Parsonlip in a sense.

Even Liu Xia could only suppress her at best, without the confidence to defeat her in the slightest.

Therefore, in the case that the spiritual foundation task cannot be completed through her, at this stage, the goal can only be placed on the remaining two labyrinth guards.

But who are the remaining two labyrinth guards, and what areas are they in charge of, they are all unknown. In view of this, they naturally need to explore SE.RA.PH as much as possible, and put the two labyrinths together. Guard to find out.

"However, the number of Labyrinth Guardians required to be defeated in the skill value promotion quest is three."

Liu Xia calculated silently in her heart: "Mertrilith can't be used to complete the mission, and neither Parsonlip nor Suzuka Yuzen can defeat it. There are only two options left... It's really troublesome."

If the remaining two labyrinth guards are not as difficult as Passenlip and Suzuka Gozen, then he should have no problem completing the basic stat upgrade task.

But if you want to complete the task of improving the skill value, you will have to find a way to get one of the two people, Parsonlip and Suzuka Gozen.

"Forget it, let's take a step by step for the time being, and if it really doesn't work, use the Noble Phantasm to bomb."

As a game operation officer, BB will probably not allow this kind of behavior that damages SE.RA.PH to happen, but at that juncture, he can only use this method to complete the task.

It is impossible for him to give up any mission released by [Anonymous Lingji], each mission can effectively help him become stronger, and it is also one of the ways to gain affection.

"Then let's start exploring from the nearest area, go to the flank area first." Fujimaru Tachika finally made a decision.
