They've already fought their way through the Holy Grail War, and you still call them dragons?

Chu Tianjiao thought he had been a driver for more than ten years and had a lot of driving experience. He knew all the routes in the city and even remembered the location of every snack stall. But now he found that when driving on this road, he could not see the usual scenery from both sides of the car window.

In other words, the background is too fake, "not what was advertised." This place looks like a real-world road, but the coordinates have actually been changed to another dimension.

"Have we entered the Nibelungen?"

Chu Tianjiao was steering the wheel, recalling the investigations into the secrets of the dragon clan over the years, and asked the little girl Ling sitting next to him.

This Zero was able to promptly alert him to the attack, yet he also managed to maintain a cool expression throughout. He must be a formidable figure who never revealed his true identity. For years, Chu Tianjiao had always believed his boss's identity was a mystery, and it turned out his subordinates weren't much worse either.

"Well, most likely. When we were inspecting the goods, we might have revealed the scent of the 'goods' and attracted those things here, and then we were targeted by the controller of the Nibelungen."

Ling was holding the communicator in her hand. She had been trying to contact Jude Mai from the beginning, but the signal was intermittent and she didn't know if Long Legs could arrive in time.

No, she wasn't even sure if the reinforcements could find them trapped in Nibelungen.

Because Nibelungen is a different space independent of reality.

In the worst case scenario, even if Jude Mai finds their location, or even if their locations overlap, it is possible that because the two belong to different, separate dimensions, they could pass each other by without anyone noticing.

Chu Tianjiao had obviously thought of this as well. The Nibelungen were clearly not places one could enter or leave at will. Perhaps thinking of his wife and children who were still outside, he sighed softly like a frustrated middle-aged man, "What bad luck!"

The unfortunate thing is that if you get lost or even die in the Nibelungen, people outside will not be able to find your body, and even the Kassel Academy's body airlift service is helpless.

I will become an irresponsible man who disappears quietly in the impression of my son Chu Zihang and my ex-wife Su Xiaoyan.

Suddenly, Zero called out beside him, "Turn to the left! Quick!"

"Hold on tight! It's turning!" Chu Tianjiao, due to Ling's previous calm demeanor, chose to believe that this girl would not joke for no reason. The moment Ling finished speaking, he made a sharp turn, and the movements of his hands were so fast that it seemed as if there was an afterimage.

After driving for many years, the Maybach was like a big toy in his hands that he could drive at will. He immediately nimbly deviated several car bodies away and turned directly into the green belt. The tires and body of the car ran over a large area of ​​neatly trimmed tall fescue lawn and blooming roses.

As expected, a huge black shadow happened to rush up from the right side of the road, like a small hill rising from the ground.

Wow, it’s so big!

The huge size of the black shadow could even cover and crush the entire road. Chu Tianjiao had no doubt that if the Maybach faced this thing head-on, it would be completely crushed into a flat pancake!

Chu Tianjiao exhaled lightly and looked ahead. The Maybach quickly turned back to the front of the road. He turned too fast and didn't have time to look back to see what that huge black shadow was.

But Zero reported the data like a humanoid scanner:

"It has a broad, flat head, a cylindrical body, raised sides, two dorsal fins, and a crescent-shaped tail fin... The one just now was an adult whale shark, estimated to be over 20 meters long and weighing over 20 tons."

Chu Tianjiao pursed his lips. Unfortunately, he wasn't a humanoid encyclopedia of marine fish knowledge, so he could only exclaim, "What a big fish!"

Chapter 93 The Darkness of Rainfall and Wild Stream

"Wait! A whale shark suddenly appeared beside the road. Does this make sense?"

Is this right? Chu Tianjiao felt that this was not right.

"It makes sense, because this isn't reality, it's the Nibelungen."

Ling simply used the word "Nibelung" to explain away this abnormal phenomenon, as if it was some universal excuse.

Chu Tianjiao didn't ask any further questions. In fact, even human hybrids, such as the Secret Party, a large hybrid organization active on the front lines of dragon slaying, knew very little about the Nibelungen.

Things of this level are simply scenes that only exist in myths.

The half-bloods called places like the Nibelungen "the land of the dead."

In Norse mythology, the black dragon Nidhogg guards the branches of the World Tree leading to the Land of the Dead. He is the gatekeeper of that entrance. During the Ragnarok, the sea is broken open, and a massive ship made of dead man's fingernails rises from the water, filled with the dead. This is the army of the Land of the Dead waging war against the living.

Alchemists described this land of the dead as a treasure of infinite value, because the secret of alchemy lies in "killing" matter and making it "regenerate." In the land of the dead, even the matter itself is dead.

It is said that there is no day or night here, the bronze mountains and ground are made of dead earth elementals, the gray sky is made of dead wind elementals, and the cold blue fire is made of dead fire elementals...

This is equivalent to a treasure trove with an unlimited supply of raw materials.

To be honest, although Chu Tianjiao didn't understand alchemy, he couldn't see any outward connection between this Nibelungen and the treasure house mentioned by the alchemist.

Most of those alchemists had never actually been to the Nibelungen; they were just making bold guesses and irresponsible boasts.

Tsk tsk, these old-fashioned old guys who are immersed in studying alchemy are now not as knowledgeable about the Nibelung as a layman like me, Old Chu!

Chu Tianjiao felt like he was trying to find joy in suffering.

The expression on Ling's face next to him never changed, and his face was much colder than Chu Zihang's.

She even calmly disassembled the radio communication device in her hand, first taking out the power amplifier and spare communication antenna from her briefcase, then using a homemade SWR meter to test the antenna matching, and continued to adjust the RF gain and noise reduction function...

It took only a few minutes to reconstruct a device on site with higher signal reception and transmission capabilities and less signal loss.

Chu Tianjiao looked at Ling's dazzling operation in surprise, "You know this?"

Ling answered casually, "Not really, I only learned it once."

Because you have "Mirror Pupil", learning it once is enough.

Relying on Jingtong's learning and analytical abilities, she was able to understand calculus formulas at the age of two, and disassemble a damaged radio with 178 components at the age of three, and then reassemble a normal radio using only 167 of them.

Zero restarted the communicator, and sure enough, she heard a familiar teammate's voice from the other end. Her expression finally relaxed, and her eyes lit up. "Where have you been?"

----

"We're here, the intersection you mentioned is right here, but I can't see you!"

Mai Jiude temporarily parked the Lamborghini Estoque on the side of the road. She glanced around through the window and saw light rain hitting the empty dark asphalt road. The road section here was near the original transaction location, and driving further ahead would lead to the overpass.

However, due to the approaching typhoon, the words "Road Closed" and a conspicuous blockade line appeared in front of the elevated entrance ramp, and no one would drive forward.

Damn it, Ling said that she and Chu Tianjiao drove straight forward from here in a black Maybach...

Is this the Nibelungen? She ran all over here and couldn't even find a gate. It didn't make sense at all.

"Wait a minute, Sanwu. I'm going to try to cross the elevated road ahead."

Jude Mai gritted her teeth. She couldn't let her boss's daughter die in Nibelungen. "It just so happens that I just heard from Master Emiya that the Nibelungen entrance and exit is related to the Zero Elevated Highway."

"...No. 0...Elevated?" The sound quality coming from the other end of the communication was completely damaged. Zero's tone was unclear, but at least Jiude Mai could make out the meaning clearly.

"Yes, the little witch sent me some keywords, such as typhoon, Skyway Zero, ocean, etc. They should all be related to things like Nibelungen."

"Maybe the typhoon is the right time... Elevated Highway Zero should be the right entrance..."

Zero's next words were broken, as if to convey an unexpected tone, "Ocean? ...Ocean!"

"We did encounter marine life in there... a whale shark... and... turn around!... there's a... tsunami ahead!"

U-turn, what U-turn?

Jude Mai subconsciously put her hands on the steering wheel and spun it, but after a careful look, nothing happened. Then, Zero's communication was cut off.

Oh no, they were talking inside. So Ling and Chu Tianjiao had just encountered some kind of accident, a tsunami?

Is it reasonable to drive through the Nibelungen and encounter a tsunami?

Jiude Mai felt that this went against common sense at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she realized that she had never seen the Nibelungen, and perhaps the characteristic of the Nibelungen was to go against common sense.

"Oh, what's going on! It's the elevated highway, right? The damn elevated highway No. 0. I don't believe I can't find it!" Jiude Mai glanced at the elevated highway sign that had been blocked in this area. Unfortunately, it was elevated highway No. 023, not the damn elevated highway No. 0.

She had no choice but to turn the Lamborghini around and re-enter the auxiliary road to find the next elevated entrance.

----

As time went on and night fell, the rain gradually became denser and heavier, like a torrential river pouring down from the sky.

The gradually increasing rain made all vehicles subconsciously slow down.

So whenever there is such heavy rain, often on the same road, the flashing red lights of the brake lights behind family cars are connected from head to tail, and the anxious horns one after another echo loudly in the rain.

Chu Zihang looked at the hazy rain scene through the car window that was constantly being hit by raindrops.

This time he called a taxi to take him home. The "new father" Lu Tianming still forgot to pick up his son.

Chu Zihang originally wanted to call the man, but the "Chu Tianjiao" displayed on the mobile phone communication interface never answered the call. Only the voice message "The number you dialed is out of service area..." was automatically broadcast repeatedly.

This was the first time Chu Zihang felt so confused and inexplicably anxious about the current situation.

This man had always been responsive to his requests. Although he liked to flaunt his supposed "reputation" every time he showed up, he was always as attentive and attentive as his job as a driver. Chu Zihang suspected that this man's attitude towards his boss was no different...

The only time Chu Zihang met a pair of red-haired siblings was when the man issued a serious warning to him, a warning that almost made him feel incomprehensible.

So, this is because of the red-haired brother and sister...?

Suddenly, a short and sharp car horn sounded from behind, and a red Ferrari suddenly rushed out from the traffic behind Chu Zihang's position, and rushed directly through the emergency lane, penetrating through the gaps between the traffic like a sharp knife.

The taxi driver of Chu Zihang's car also noticed the Ferrari that was overtaking in a high-profile manner, and had to slightly adjust the position of the car to the side to avoid being scratched by the red Ferrari -

The driver knew that he was driving a taxi company's car, and if something happened to it, it would take time to repair it, which would delay his ability to take orders.

A red Ferrari quickly came speeding along and overtook the car. The driver just took one look and cursed under his breath, "You're driving like that, you're going to be reborn!"

Chu Zihang also stared at the Ferrari the entire time, although he only glanced at it when it passed by.

But he seemed to see a vague red-haired figure inside.

----

Inside the Ferrari, Emiya held a cell phone in his hand, his fingers jumping as he typed rapidly, the light from the screen illuminating his face and hair.

"I just asked Jiude Mai, and she has news."

Nuonuo was still behind the wheel. The female driver was incredibly skilled and daring, weaving in and out of traffic like she was playing a racing game. With that kind of driving skill, she should be sitting at the same table with Mrs. Irisviel...

If the situation wasn't special and urgent this time, Emiya would never let Nono take the steering wheel again.

"What did she reply?"

Emiya typed as he spoke, "She's still driving, so it's not convenient for her to call, and her text messages were brief."

"It's basically about her teammates and another person having an accident, but the description is very bizarre. They were trapped in some kind of alien space and kept wandering around, and encountered phenomena related to the 'ocean'."

"It looks like some kind of unusual and rare labyrinthine magic realm, accessible only by taking the correct elevated route during a typhoon. This was originally our goal. With her and Old Tang, a three-pronged expedition should be sufficient."

The largest "Labyrinth" that Emiya knows of is Albion, the Tomb of the Souls. It is a huge underground maze with a depth of tens or hundreds of kilometers. The coordinates of its entrance on the surface are also unstable and are often in a state of change.

In addition, there is the Seventh Labyrinth of Alcatraz that appears in "Fate/Labyrinth". This labyrinth is even a man-made experimental field. Not only do Phantasmagoria appear in it, but a subspecies Holy Grail War is even held there.

(Unlike the normal Holy Grail War, the number of Servants in the Subtype Holy Grail War is only four or five or less, which is not enough to open a hole to the outside world.)

"We found Overpass Zero!"

Nuonuo, who was rushing through the traffic, finally saw an empty road leading to the elevated road in the distance. The willow branches that originally blocked the road sign danced wildly in the strong wind, revealing a few words faintly, "Entrance to the elevated road...", followed by the number.

Emiya also looked with his enhanced eyesight, and as expected, it was elevated highway No. 000!

Chapter 94 Tide, I have returned (

After Nono confirmed that the location was correct, he turned the steering wheel sharply and stepped on the accelerator to speed up, heading towards the empty road. Emiya next to him was also hurriedly tapping on his mobile phone, sending the message and location to Jude Mai and Lao Tang.

"…The signal is out of service area?"

The Ferrari was like a chariot heading towards the enemy camp without hesitation, its engine roaring like a war cry, heading straight for the entrance of Highway 0. However, at this moment, Emiya suddenly discovered that the signal bars on his mobile phone had dropped to zero.

His heart tightened. Old Tang and Jiude Mai should have successfully received his message by now, right? However, with the signal being zero, Emiya couldn't hear from them either.

"What's going on? We have lost contact with the outside world?" Nono heard Emiya's words while looking straight ahead.

"Yes, I hope our other two teammates have received the message as well... Strange, Jude Mai said before that she could still talk to her teammates who were trapped inside?"

Nono continued to drive forward. The rain curtain gradually became denser and sometimes slanted, and was hit by the cold wind from time to time. It seemed that the crazy lines connecting the sky and the earth trapped the Ferrari tightly in the rain, as if forcing it to face the hostility from the whole world.

"I'm afraid things aren't that simple," Nono remembered the "Mark of Odin" on his body. "The other party might be targeting us, which is why they prevented us from contacting others and even made it so easy for us to find Elevated Zero."

"Have we been chosen..."

Emiya knew that his situation and Nono's were probably different. He was the one who was judged as "threatening" by the other party and was to be eliminated, while Nono was probably related to the "Chen Family Experiment" organized by the other party.

The technical reserves displayed by the other party include various mature necromancy techniques and human cloning technologies. Judging from this artificially created maze of magic, it would not be surprising if "Heroic Spirit Summoning" similar to the situation in "Fate/Labyrinth" appeared here.

The Ferrari continued to accelerate, and the rain curtain was penetrated like cotton cloth.

"...Strange? What's under the overpass?"

Nuonuo stared at the scene in front of him. The surrounding environment looked like an ordinary overpass, with thick fog extending into the blurry distance under the gray sky. But looking closer, the situation under the overpass seemed to be wrong.

The environment seemed to be as gray and undulating as the sky, but it was shrouded in a layer of fog, making it difficult to see clearly.

"There's the sound of water." Emiya pointed to his ears. Sometimes, enhancing hearing is more useful than enhancing vision.

Nuonuo understood the instructions and did as he was told immediately. Sure enough, he heard the sound of endless waves hitting the obstacles from below.
