Hearing Tong Shen's words, Lu Bu, or Deng Yougang, nodded and continued to talk about Matou Kariya's physical condition.

Although medicine and martial arts have been inseparable since ancient times, given Lu Bu's condition, he naturally only knew the basics of medicine. The reason why he was able to conduct a professional examination on Matou Kariya's body was mainly because Deng Yougang took the stage.

As the only official member of the alliance who practices the art of summoning spirits and dispatching generals, Deng Yougang has collected almost all the rare souls from the worlds under the alliance, including but not limited to civil officials and military generals from all dynasties, saints from hundreds of schools of thought, and various historical celebrities.

Among these people, there is naturally no shortage of compassionate doctors with a medical spirit.

Among the famous medical spirits alone, Deng Yougang worships no less than three big names.

The one who is lending him medical skills now is Hua Tuo, a genius doctor who is known as one of the "Three Divine Doctors of Jian'an" together with Dong Feng and Zhang Zhongjing.

With the blessing of the spirit of medicine, Hua Tuo's medical skills have far exceeded the scope of mortals and reached a level close to that of gods.

Deng Yougang simply used Qi to explore Jiantong Yanye's entire body and easily learned about Jiantong Yanye's most comprehensive physical condition.

Upon hearing about Matou Kariya's extremely miserable physical condition, everyone in the room had a heavy expression on their faces.

Toosaka Rin turned her head away with red eyes, as if she couldn't bear to look at the **man anymore.

She really couldn't imagine how the man in front of her could survive to this day with such a body.

"It's a crested bug..."

Tong Shen sighed and said, "That's the old monster's secret technique. It's a familiar similar to the man-made three corpse worms. It can parasitize the human body and rely on devouring the host's magic power to maintain its mobility. It's like a surveillance device made by magic."

"After the Crest Worms are cultivated and implanted into the human body, they will become nerves similar to Magic Circuits and combine with the original nerves."

"Under normal circumstances, the magic circuits formed by these engraved bugs are stopped, but once they are activated, they will invade the host and continue to use the host's magic power as food. When the magic power is eaten up, the bugs will eat the host's flesh and blood in order to obtain nutrients."

"In addition to magic power, this monster also likes human blood, semen and bone marrow. Once it parasitizes in the body, it will sooner or later shatter the spine in the body and suck out the brain, thus turning you into a complete cripple..."

Hearing Tong Shen's calm words, Toosaka Rin's eyes became extremely complicated.

There is fear, anger, powerlessness, fear and relief...

She finally understood why Tong Shen took Sakura away from the Matou family.

Such a deformed magic family is undoubtedly the most terrifying hell for the young Tong Shen and Xiaoying.

"Thanks."

Toosaka Rin suddenly said in a low voice.

Tong Shen glanced at him and said nothing.

There were even more cruel words he hadn't said yet, but having the spine crushed and the brains sucked out was just the fate of the male host.

If the woman is a female, the bugs will invade her nerves and extend their tentacles to various parts of the body, constantly craving for sexual fluid. They will penetrate her skin with their mucus, causing her mental pleasure center to become high until it collapses, in order to satisfy their never-ending hunger.

Ultimately, the mind and body of the female host possessed by the insects will be completely invaded and destroyed.

Recalling what happened to Sakura in the original novel when she was invaded by the marking bugs, Tong Shen couldn't help but feel a little scared.

But then, Tong Shen felt a huge sense of guilt in his heart.

According to the original plot, Matou Kariya should have been relieved by death ten years ago.

But in this world line, due to the relationship between Tong Shen and Sakura, Matou Kirei did not dare to die like this, so he has survived to this day with such a broken body and great perseverance.

As for the reason why Matou Yanye voluntarily stayed in the Matou family all these years and did not contact him and Sakura, Tong Shen could roughly guess it.

He was simply worried that Matou Zouken would find out where they were, or that Matou Zouken would let Matou Kariya willingly become his puppet in exchange for not looking for him and Sakura...

"Uncle Bu, can you cure him?"

Tong Shen suddenly asked.

Deng Yougang thought about it and nodded, "If there were no imprinted insects, I might be able to make his body recover gradually, but now his body can no longer withstand such severe damage."

"If we forcibly remove the Crest Bug..."

Deng Yougang shook his head, saying the consequences were unpredictable.

Of course, just because Deng Yougang can’t do it doesn’t mean that other alliance members can’t do it.

For the Alliance, a mere mortal, let alone one whose body is destroyed by the parasitic Marking Worms, even if he dies on the spot and his body is turned into powder, the Alliance can easily bring him back to life.

However, Deng Yougang cannot reveal his identity to Tong Shen at the moment, so he can only put the matter of using the alliance's power to rescue Matou Kariya on hold for the time being.

"Also..." Deng Yougang said carefully, "I found a special engraved worm in this person's heart, which has the breath of that old monster..."

As soon as these words came out, Tong Shen's face suddenly became gloomy.

He remembered the plot of a certain world line, in which Zouken Matou also hid his true body, the Crest Worm, in Sakura's heart. It was eventually dug out by Sakura herself after she gained a large amount of magic power and turned evil, and she was crushed to death on the spot.

Tong Shen suddenly asked, "Is there any way to remove this worm without endangering Uncle Yan Ye's life?"

Deng Yougang glanced at him and said, "What do you think?"

Tong Shen fell silent for a long time. After a while, he suddenly stood up, looked at Toosaka Rin and said calmly, "Didn't you say you would take me to the church to meet the person who knows the most about the Holy Grail War? Let's go now!"

"……Now?"

Toosaka Rin was slightly startled and couldn't help but glance at the naked Matou Kariya.

"What about him?"

"Let him stay here for now. I'll pay someone to take care of him."

"…What about you? Do you ignore him?"

"..." Tong Shen glanced at her eyes and suddenly said without any context, "I have a reason to win now, Toosaka-san, be prepared, the alliance between us will end soon!"

"Uncle Bu, let's go!"

After saying that, Tong Shen walked towards the door.

Deng Yougang raised the corner of his mouth and quietly left the stage, replaced by Lu Bu who watched quietly.

Lu Bu took a step forward and paused when passing by Red A. He smiled and said, "Archer, take this time to sharpen your arrows. I can't wait!"

After saying that, Lu Bu followed Tong Shen's footsteps.

Looking at the backs of the two people, Hong A twitched the corner of his mouth and shook his head helplessly.

"What a troublesome opponent!"

…

…

In the early morning, the darkness still shrouded the earth.

Under the leadership of Toosaka Rin, Tong Shen left this high-end residential area.

When passing a certain street, Lu Bu, who was following behind the two men, suddenly frowned and stopped.

"What's wrong, Uncle Bu?"

Tong Shen noticed Lu Bu's actions, subconsciously stopped and turned to look.

Lu Bu frowned and turned to look at the roof of a house not far away.

There, there was a figure that was imperceptible to ordinary people standing on the eaves, and at this moment he was looking at this side with a serious expression.

She was a blonde, blue-eyed girl who looked a little frail. She wore a blue knight's dress and a silver armor covered with magic. Her eyes were like a clear blue ocean, but full of indescribable powerful aura.

After seeing the appearance of the girl in silver armor, especially the golden hair standing upright on her head, Tong Shen instantly recognized her identity.

It was the popular Heroic Spirit who participated in the Fourth and Fifth Holy Grail Wars as a Saber-class warrior.

King Arthur, Altria Pendragon!

“It’s a heroic spirit!”

Toosaka Rin also reacted and immediately retreated to the side of Hong A vigilantly.

Hong A stood in front of Toosaka Rin, looking at the girl on the roof in the distance with a complicated and nostalgic look.

The two sides stared at each other for a long time, and then the girl in silver armor suddenly jumped off the roof and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Toosaka Rin breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "Since the other party has no hostility, just ignore it."

"No, let's go check it out!" Tong Shen shook his head, glanced at Toosaka Rin's expression and said softly, "It just so happens that I have some information I just got during the day that I haven't told you yet."

"…What information?"

"When I left the campus, I saw the Command Seal on the back of a student's hand. He should be the seventh person in the Holy Grail War."

Hearing Tong Shen's words, Toosaka Rin was stunned and a determined face appeared in her mind.

Tong Shen asked: "Who did you think of?"

Toosaka Rin came back to her senses, pondered for a moment, and shook her head, "No, it shouldn't be him. I know he has magic circuits in his body, but he should only be able to perform some basic projection magic. How could he become a Master..."

Tong Shen smiled faintly: "Just go and take a look and you'll know."

As he said that, he turned to look at Lu Bu: "Uncle Bu, thank you for your help."

Lu Bu sighed and complained, "Why is it a woman again?"

Tong Shen's mouth twitched, and he was too embarrassed to tell him that it was because female characters were more popular...

Although Lu Bu has always been critical of beating women, when facing a woman who could become a heroic spirit, Lu Bu still maintains a high fighting spirit.

He waved his hand, took out the pitch-black Fang Tian Huaji, leaped up, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Tong Shen took the lead and said calmly, "Let's go and take a look."
