Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 276 Servant Summoning and Mutation
In the Moon World, the Heroic Seat itself is above the timeline, so the plan proposed by Restraining Force can indeed be realized, the only problem is...

"Change... what is this?" Zheng Shu stroked his chin thinking.

Fortunately, the thoughtful panel gave a hint at this time:

[Detected world awareness proposed transaction]

[Transaction content: The conditions proposed by the completion of world consciousness, the user pays an impact factor equivalent to 25% of the collection progress. 】

After Zheng Shu saw the prompt on the panel, he suddenly realized: "Is the impact factor the so-called change... Is the impact factor such an important thing for the world?"

At this time, Zheng Shu also recalled what happened when he first entered the Xingyue world. As an existence that was more alien than ordinary "aliens", Zheng Shu, an "intruder" outside the world, could actually make Xingyue The two extreme xenophobic restraints of the moon world and the earth allow him to enter his own world. During this period, the impact factor of the panel should play the most important role.

As long as you pay enough influence factors, not only can you allow yourself to come into the world with the stubborn restraint, but you can also help yourself arrange the novice village.From this, it should be possible to see that the impact factor should be a particularly precious "resource" for the world.

Combined with the name of the impact factor of inhibition: change, Zheng Shu thinks of his method of obtaining the impact factor, and probably already understands what the essence of the impact factor of the panel is.

"Okay, I agree with your proposal!"

After thinking about it for a while, Zheng Shu very simply agreed to this deal with Suppression.

——Then, let's start the transaction between us now!
This sentence was not displayed on the panel, but directly appeared in Zheng Shu's mind.

It can be seen that he was quite excited after earning such a sum of restraint power, and even a little impatient, so he simply bypassed the process of the panel and directly instilled information into Zheng Shu's mind.

Judging from the reaction of the suppression force, if Zheng Shu had lowered the price before, the suppression force might also agree to this deal.

However, although he already knows that the impact factor is a very valuable thing to the world, Zheng Shu does not mean to save too much. After all, for him now, it is very simple to obtain such things as the impact factor.

... What's more, after completing this transaction with Restraining Power, it is not certain whether Zheng Shu's impact factor reserves will decrease or increase.

It is no exaggeration to say that after participating in the Holy Grail War, if the number of influence factors that Zheng Shu obtained is still lower than the "ticket" he gave to the suppression force, then Zheng Shu should not travel across the world at all, and just find a corner and die alone. .

"Wait, it won't take too long this time?" Zheng Shu suddenly asked a question.

Although he knew that the Sterno sisters would not wake up so soon, since Zheng Shu had already made an agreement with them, the first thing they saw when they woke up was him, so Zheng Shu naturally had to abide by it.

In case the restraint force cheats and delays a little while traveling through time, then Zheng Shu will not be able to complete the agreement.

——Don't worry, the Hall of Valor is beyond time. No matter how long you spend there, you will come back the next moment after you leave.

"Is that so? That's good..." Zheng Shu nodded.

He found that when he said this sentence, there was a slight fluctuation in the restraining force's original mechanical tone, and it seemed to become more "expectant".

However, Zheng Shu didn't feel any malice, and in the end he could only understand this "anticipation" emotion as the restraining force's desire for the impact factor that was about to be obtained.

——So, do you want to make a deal?
"it is good!"

As soon as Zheng Shu finished speaking, several reminders immediately appeared on the panel in front of him:
【Command received】

【The transaction content has been confirmed】

【Collating...】

【Influence factors with awareness to ensure the completion of the transaction】

Zheng Shu felt that part of his spiritual power was actively extracted by the panel and mixed with the impact factor that will be used for the transaction. With this part of Zheng Shu's will, once the restraining force fails to complete the transaction as agreed, then this part of the impact factor will It will be destroyed by Zheng Shu's will.

[The application of consciousness is completed, and the impact factor is ready to be extracted. 】

[25% of the impact factor of the collection progress has been extracted, ready to trade]

Progress: 200.32%→175.32%
Zheng Shu watched a ball of green light rising from his chest to the sky, and then an irresistible drowsiness hit, Zheng Shu just lay on the bed and fell asleep.

……

……

In the room, Matou Sakura put the book back on the shelf, and then looked out the window with those dull eyes.

Matou's transformation of the engraving is indeed painful, but the effect is quite obvious. At least Matou Sakura's perception ability has been greatly improved after the transformation, and now she can feel that there are bugs in every corner of the house.

She doesn't like it here, but she can only stay here after being abandoned by her father.

Just then, there was a knock on her door.After opening the door, Matou Sakura found that the person knocking on the door was Matou Sakura Zouken.

After seeing Matou Sakura behind the door, Matou Zouken forced out a smile.He seemed to want to smile kindly, but paired with Matou Zouken's skinny face like a skeleton, such a smile would only be more permeating.

"It's in the room. I asked Shen Er to come to you just now, but he said that you are not in the room, Sakura, so I came to check." He coughed twice, and looked as if he was going to die at any moment.

"Sorry grandpa, I just went to the study to get a new magic book, is it time yet? I'll be there right away." Matou Ying replied calmly, but there was a trace of fear hidden under that calmness.

"It turned out to be like this... Very good, you worked very hard, this is the quality necessary for the successor of the Jiantong family." Jiantong Zouyan nodded in approval, and then said, "I came here to tell you something There is an important ceremony in the basement tonight, so there is no need to come here."

Matou Sakura nodded to express her understanding, Matou Zouken was very satisfied with this well-behaved appearance, and turned to leave after instructing some questions about magic learning.

Seeing the door of her room being gently closed, and after confirming that Matou Zouyan had gone far away, Matou Ying's eyes fluctuated, as if she was relieved.

"Is it an important ceremony?" Matou Sakura frowned.

When Matou Kariya came back before, Matou Ying overheard the conversation between the two, which seemed to be about an upcoming ceremony.

However, I haven't heard too much information, I only know that some kind of powerful familiar will be summoned in this ceremony.

It seems to be called... Servant (Servant)?

It seems that if the ritual is successful, a dreamy object that can grant all wishes will be obtained.

"Can all wishes be fulfilled?" Matou Sakura looked down at her palm, her eyes fluctuating slightly, "If there is such a thing...can my wish be fulfilled?"

……

……

Matou Mansion, underground, worm warehouse.

The bugs that usually piled up the entire underground space have disappeared, as if hiding in a deeper shadow, leaving only the floor that looks clean.

Matou Zouyan and Matou Kariya stood in the center of the worm bin, in front of them was a complex magic circle depicted by blood-red paint.

At this time, as the mantra chanted by Kariya Matou came to an end, the magic circle in front of him had already emitted a dazzling light, which represented that the ceremony had entered the most critical moment.

Matou Kariya could clearly feel that the worms in his body began to wriggle continuously, and the skin on his body was constantly rising and falling. The severe pain caused the veins on his face to burst, and blood and tears flowed from his eye sockets. flow out continuously.

As the ceremony progressed, the activities of the worms in his body became more intense, and even began to eat his body to transform his life force into magic power.

But for Matou Kariya, who had never developed his own magician qualifications, such a huge magic power caused another kind of oppression on the body, and the vision of the left eye began to blur, which was a manifestation of the magic power affecting the nerves.

After discovering that his host's body had an irreversible disability, the engraving worm in his body didn't hesitate, and simply ate Matou Kariya's left eye to transform it into greater magic power, which was used to supply the magic circle. run.

As a person who has not developed his magician qualifications much, if he wants to drive this top-level summoning circle, this is the price Matou Kariya must pay!

Accompanied by the continuous infusion of magic power, finally, a figure filled with strange black mist slowly appeared in the center of the summoning array. The figure was covered with heavy black armor, which looked unusually majestic and powerful.

At this time, Matou Kariya's body had become extremely weak, he was panting heavily, even if the ceremony hadn't been fully completed, his body was already on the verge of collapse.

However, looking at the black figure that appeared in the center of Fazheng, a trace of excitement still flashed in Matou Kariya's only remaining right eye: "Success... I succeeded! I succeeded!"

Feeling the tremendous power transmitted from the contract, Kariya Matou was so excited that he couldn't control himself.

He knew that this was his only possible chance.

As long as he grabs the only card in his hand, defeats Tohsaka Tokiomi, the guy who trampled on Sakura and Aoi's happiness, and gets the Holy Grail, then he can take Sakura out of this hell.

I will definitely succeed!For Sakura, for Aoi...

boom!
There was a loud noise that seemed to vibrate the space.

While Matou Kariya was still thinking about the future, an accident suddenly happened to the summoning that was about to end.

Behind the black figure that was summoned just now, the space suddenly vibrated non-stop, and vibrations like water waves appeared out of thin air, as if something terrifying was about to break through the world barrier from the world behind the space and pass through here.

"Roar!"

As if sensing danger, the black figure who had been silent in the center of the magic circle let out a roar like a wild beast.

And with this angry roar, a "crack" finally appeared in the space above the magic circle amidst the continuous vibration.

Ka Ka Ka!
There was a crisp cracking sound, but the originally inaccessible space shattered like a mirror, revealing the empty world behind it.

"What the hell is this...?" Matou Kariya looked at the cracked space and muttered to himself in disbelief.

But Jiantong Zouyan, who had been standing by his side all the time, had disappeared at some point.As soon as the mutation appeared, he had already hidden himself, and the sound of swarms of insects could be heard in the entire basement.

After the space above the magic circle completely cracked a perfect circular gap, a huge "suction force" came out from the black gap.

This suction does not affect the surrounding substances, even the air does not have any flow.

However, Matou Kariya, who is in a state of active magic power, can clearly feel that the magic power in his body is draining rapidly. The speed is like someone put the water pump in the bathtub, no matter how Matou Kariya resists. any effect.

Even the engraved worms in his body gradually lost their life under such a high-power extraction—after all, the life force of creatures can be transformed into magic power.

And Matou Kariya with a physical body appeared, not to mention the servant who was in the position with the strongest suction right below the circular gap and whose body was completely composed of magic power.

With almost no room for resistance, Matou Kariya watched helplessly as the servant he had just summoned turned into black magic power and was absorbed by the circular hole.

"Bastard! Stop...stop!" Kariya Matou screamed hoarsely, but he could only watch helplessly as the last hope of saving Sakura was completely destroyed.

And the three "spells" that appeared on the back of Matou Kariya's hand just after the contract was concluded, as a huge crystal of magic power, were also targeted by the suction force emitted by the round hole. The moment the black follower disappeared, Matou Kariya The spell on the back of the hand is also fading due to the absorption of magic power.

Seeing this scene, Matou Kariya was even more furious, which meant that he was completely disqualified from this Holy Grail War.

However, his body has been destroyed and he is extremely weak. After losing the engraving worm in his body and the servants he summoned, he has no choice but to be incapable and furious.

After absorbing all the magic power within the suction range, the circular hollow seems to be a bit unfinished.

But for some reason, this hole didn't suck up Matou Kariya's life force, it just sucked up the life of the bugs in his body and stopped absorbing his life force.

After calming down for a while, and even Matou Kariya who fell on the ground had recovered somewhat, a new movement finally appeared in the hollow.

Whoa!

A large group of slender black tentacles made of magic power burst out of the hole, quickly sweeping across the swarm of insects hidden in the basement.

These tentacles made of magic power didn't look like real objects. Matou Kariya, who fell on the ground, was brushed by the black tentacles several times, but he didn't find any problems with his body.

However, all the bugs that were brushed by the black tentacles suffered, and the vitality of them would be sucked up just by passing them for a moment, and besides the tentacles that contained a lot of magic power and could be seen clearly, the tentacles were also entangled. With invisible suction.

All insects that have no time to escape will die in an instant, leaving only fragile insect bodies on the ground.

Not long after, the worms originally stored in the worm warehouse of Matou's family were slaughtered, leaving corpses everywhere.

Matou Kariya looked numb at the worms constantly pouring out from the shadows. Although he had seen the scene in the worm warehouse several times, he never thought that his father could hide so many worms.

After a long time, after all the worms that could be touched were completely absorbed, the magic tentacles were still waving non-stop, as if they were still not satisfied.

Seeming to have noticed something special, all the tentacles plunged downwards, and the illusory tentacles easily passed through the floor and continued to move deep underground, and soon came into contact with a large number of magic gathering points.

This is the landline of the Matou family, and it is also the most precious treasure of a magician family besides the engraving.

The black magic tentacles danced happily like a mouse in a granary, crazily absorbing the enormous power of the leylines.

With the terrifying absorption efficiency of the tentacles and the absorbing intensity like a fish in a river, even the powerful leylines are showing signs of drying up—after all, the Matou family’s leylines are just a branch, and in order to be able to carry out the Holy Grail War, they have already been in the same place before. Elsewhere a great deal of magic has accumulated.

The tentacles seemed to be aware of this, so they followed the flow of the earth's veins towards the source of the accumulated magic power.

The illusory tentacles themselves have no length limit, and under the blessing of the surging magic power of the earth veins, they quickly reached the source they wanted.

Looking at the huge magic group in front of him, the tentacles exuded a humane joy, and then plunged into the magic group.

then……

bah bah bah!
The tentacles that had just plunged into the magic group retracted suddenly like an electric shock, and the whole tentacle made a movement similar to what a human being ate, and kept spraying the magic power that it had just absorbed from the magic group. Back to the magic group.Even because he felt too disgusted, he simply cut off the tentacles that had penetrated into the magic group and threw it into the magic group.

After suffering from this accident, the other tentacles that were enthusiastically absorbing the magic power quickly retracted into the hollow as if they were wilting down.

Seeing the inexplicable change in front of him, Matou Kariya stared blankly, it seemed that he had fallen into a void of peace.

Suddenly, the magic power that had just been absorbed burst out from the hollow, forming a bright pillar of magic power that poured fiercely into the summoning circle directly below.

The magic circle, which was supposed to be unable to operate because of the time limit, started to operate again under the infusion of huge magic power.

Under Matou Kariya's surprised eyes, the summoning circle shone brightly again, and a vague figure slowly emerged from it.
