[Double North] Fate

Today's weather is better than yesterday's, and the golden-orange sun disk tries to poke out a small half of its face from behind the gloomy cumulus clouds.The winding path passing through the small garden, the front is like a trapezoidal cube building with a slanted roof standing alone at the end of the flat square. The shape design has a modern and modern artistic atmosphere, but because of its name, it carries the sense of ancient and heavy history .

He saw his own reflection on the sloping glass wall.Ordinary all in black - anyone's reflection on this kind of glass will look black due to insufficient light source.Sandwiched between the young traveler and the parent with the young child, he fits into the scene naturally.

It was just after the opening time of the museum, and the line between the railings of the slope was not too long, and he soon arrived at the security check at the entrance.He fumbled in his jacket pocket, and took out a bluish card with a white background.The security guard took a look and compared his appearance: "Come on."

He took his things back, thanked him politely, and walked into the hall of the museum.

"I thought I needed to show off my superb sneaking skills, so it seems that I just need to walk in openly."

It's a piece of cake, he rubbed the tip of his nose proudly.I am afraid that only he himself knows how the Chinese resident ID card with a clear frontal photo came from.When he stuffed the forged ID back into his leather jacket pocket, the magic prop made of magic turned back into a white piece of paper that could be seen everywhere.

Sa Beining's goal today is to thoroughly investigate the most famous cultural relic collection museums in Xingsha City, and the first problem before him - as a follower, mixed in with ordinary people's tourists - has disappeared. solved with difficulty.Next, he put his hands in his pockets and looked around the hall. The off-white curtain hung from the very high ceiling, and the light ocher wall bricks and the green plants distributed in the room created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for visiting.The high-rise corridors are staggered to make the space inside the building high and three-dimensional.

As expected, there are several sources of magic power scattered throughout the three-dimensional space.On the fourth floor, there are about twelve or thirteen exhibition halls, all of which must be carefully investigated.As he thought about it, he walked towards the dimly lit exhibition hall on the far left.

The Holy Grail War is the battle of servants for the Holy Grail.The Holy Grail itself is a concept of a container of magic power that surpasses the power of humans and followers. Because of its huge magic power, it is said that if you have it, you can realize any of your wishes.Specifically, just as most people's wishes can be fulfilled with infinite money in the non-magic world, most magicians' whimsical wishes can also be fulfilled as long as they rely on an unimaginably huge amount of magic power.

In the Holy Grail War, there is actually not only one Holy Grail that is used as a key prize.It is composed of two Holy Grails called "Great Holy Grail" and "Little Holy Grail".The Great Holy Grail is the power core that absorbs underground magic, initiates the Holy Grail War, and summons servants. It usually takes the form of a magic summoning array with a radius of several kilometers; while the Small Holy Grail is used to store the souls of dead servants, and finally forms a prize. Magic container.

Whether it is to abolish halfway or end the Holy Grail War normally, finding two Holy Grails is a necessary factor, and the magic power of the big and small Holy Grails must also be connected.Compared with looking for the Great Holy Grail with strong self-concealment skills, it is more efficient to first look for the Lesser Holy Grail with concentrated and exposed magic power.In addition, the shape of the Lesser Holy Grail is usually more consistent with the concept of the Holy Grail itself. From the appearance, it is a cup-shaped magic prop with a very high level of mystery.

This narrowed down quite a bit of search scope for Sa Beining.There are few lights in the exhibition hall. The protagonists here have been silent for thousands of years in the unknown soil fault, and now they don't need dazzling and noisy performances.Sa Beining carefully observed the Han tomb cultural relics displayed row by row in the glass cover.

If it is a small holy grail that comes naturally, then it is very likely to choose a cultural relic-level container as a support, especially in China, a country with a long ancient history and a profound history of mystery; In war, it is much better to use cultural relics as the base of the small holy grail than any random wooden cup and porcelain bowl.

Those magicians who claim to be pursuing ideals have never had a moral bottom line to act.Stealing cultural relics from the collection, or buying stolen goods from tomb robbers on the black market-as long as they can achieve their goals, they are completely calm and at ease even if they need to use dirty means.

It was his knowledge of many magicians in the history of the magic world as a Caster that convinced him of this fact.When there is no clue about the current situation, it is easier to get clues from the place where there are many cultural relics.

In this way, Sa Beining spent a whole day in several famous museums in Xingsha City.From the Shang Dynasty to modern times, there are indeed several cultural relics in the exhibits of various ages, preserving the magic traces left by history.But not only pottery, porcelain, iron, bronze, gold and silver utensils, just in case, he even looked at hundreds of bamboo slips, spinning and embroidery, and various ancient folk crafts whose shapes did not fully conform to the concept, but he did not Finding any ancient relic with magical power has the qualifications to become a mythical artifact like the Lesser Holy Grail.

"Excuse me, sir—"

Just as he was standing in front of a hanging scroll and thinking deeply, his wandering thoughts were pulled back to his body by an apologetic voice.He looked back at the source of the voice, only to see a young man with a work card hanging around his neck talking to him.

"Excuse me. Is it time for the museum to close?"

"Yes, if you still want to see it, come back another day."

Sabine nodded, and did not intend to stay any longer.After walking a few steps, he turned around and asked, "By the way, when I was visiting the Song and Tang cultural relics exhibition downstairs, I saw that some of the collections were not in their original places. Could it be that there was an unexpected incident of cultural relics being stolen?"

"Of course it's impossible! Those pieces are on tour with the collections of several museums in Xingsha City, and they won't return to the booth until next month."

Overseas exhibition?He was about to ask, but after thinking about it for a while, he finally said nothing, and left calmly after thanking him.The crisp sound of heels hitting the ground scattered in the already empty exhibition hall.
