It took a long time, but Shirou Emiya finally locked on the name.
Originally, he had doubts about the cherry-haired woman's real name being Francis Drake. After all, historical records showed that Francis Drake was a male.
But he remembered that the Mordred he met was a female, and it seemed that the historical records of gender were not accurate, so Shirou Emiya quickly confirmed it.
Indeed, Shirou Emiya did not find any books introducing Frances Drake and her series.
There is no way to find out which books were taken away by Shinji Matou through librarians or search machines.
But Shirou Emiya only needs to find a statistical book that records all the pirates in the world.
List all the pirates who own their own ships.
Among them, the famous ships and pirates were listed.
Then, the information about the pirates was compared one by one with the detailed information books in the library.
Except for the information of Francis Drake, the information of other pirates is basically available, so it is easy to judge that Shinji Matou's servant should be Francis Drake.
Shirou Emiya did not expect that he could get the real name of Shinji Matou's servant so easily.
If it weren't for Shinji Matou's unnecessary actions, it would be difficult to connect the cherry-haired woman with Francis Drake.
Just like no normal person would think that King Arthur was a woman.
At first, Shirou Emiya divided the pirates into male and female pirates, but found that there was no information about the cherry-haired woman among the female pirates.
Only then did I think about the problem of Mordred, and classified the male pirates among them, and finally found the real name of Shinji Matou's servant.
However, Shirou Emiya only learned Francis Drake's real name.
He didn't know much about the man who was the first person to sail around the world alive.
Because Magellan is obviously more famous than her, and the history books she studied often mentioned Magellan instead of Francis Drake.
Basically, history books only take up a very small space on the page. If you want to learn more, you have to go to the library.
As for Shirou Emiya, most of what he knew were things about King Arthur and some stories in mythology.
After all, Shirou Emiya spent most of his time in other worlds, and when he returned to Fuyuki City, he fell into an academic crisis and had little time to look up information.
There is so much history in the world, and textbooks only tell you about it in a simple way. If you want to really understand it in depth, you can only do so through other breakthroughs.
"Sure enough, if we want to know Francis Drake in such detail, we still have to go to the arena?"
Having said that, Emiya Shirou left the library and looked towards the arena.
It seemed that Matou Shinji had already walked towards the arena.
"I'm afraid they'll set a trap for this—"
This was something Emiya Shirou was almost certain of.
If you didn't know something about Frances Drake, you would have to take the risk if you wanted to get her information.
The second code key had been generated some time ago.
There are only two days left until the final battle.
Whether it is to obtain the key to the final battle venue or the information about Matou Shinji's servant, Emiya Shirou needs to go to the arena.
I am afraid that the second conflict will come soon.
And it was a completely expected conflict.
However, rather than confronting this trap head-on, Emiya Shirou thought of a better way to obtain this information from Matou Shinji.
But the prerequisite for all this is to first find the place where Shinji Matou hid the information.
Once again, Shirou Emiya came to the arena called Ichi-no-Tsuki Sokai.
The evil spirit also covered his entire body the moment he stepped into the arena.
The figure also quickly hid away.
A rapier shaped like a cross appeared in Shirou Emiya's hand, although he did not have the ability like Shinomiya Amane to make his wishes come true.
It can even be said to be much inferior.
But it can also influence your own [luck] and make things go more smoothly for you.
If I were to express it numerically, it would be the level of changing Emiya Shirou's luck - E, to luck - A+.
Of course, Emiya Shirou had no idea what his lucky transformation had actually been like.
He only understood that when he held this sword, he could save himself from many meaningless things that required luck.
For example, when finding a way or looking for something, Shirou Emiya would usually choose to project this weapon.
Just as the second code key was found, Shirou Emiya also discovered the wooden box hidden in the canyon.
And treasures scattered all over the island.
These treasures were not there when he first came to the arena.
It seems like it was generated in the arena through some method.
Chapter 550: Starting from Another Angle
“Pseudo Spiral Sword (Caladbolg II)——!”
As a low voice sounded from above, the figure of Shirou Emiya wearing a red cloak slowly emerged from the cliff under the illumination of azure light.
With these words, the sound of a bowstring being tightened occurred in front of Emiya Shirou.
That was the sound of the golden bow being pulled very steadily.
And under this sky filled with only the howling of seagulls, only one voice could be heard.
"call out--!"
The sword arrow that shot out at this moment brought with it a violent hurricane that echoed up, tearing the air and the sea breeze, turning into a silver lightning and flying down.
"boom--!"
The sword arrow, as expected, hit the wooden box hidden in the canyon on the coast.
The extremely powerful impact force destroyed the entire wooden box in an instant.
A large number of books scattered out of the wooden box.
At that moment, he was sure that the wooden box contained the books hidden by Matou Shinji.
"boom----!"
The terrifying roar echoed throughout the island in just an instant.
All Masters and Servants could see a huge mushroom cloud slowly rising when they felt the impact.
The indescribable explosion swallowed up the wooden box and everything around it in an instant.
Countless pieces of debris also flew everywhere following this horrific explosion.
The entire island trembled under this horrific explosion.
With the explosion as the center, the powerful impact force created a powerful storm that rushed in all directions.
Many masters were affected by this powerful impact, and some even couldn't stand and fell to the ground.
At this time, Shinji Matou was at a low point between the cliffs of the entire island and was closest to the explosion.
Under the violent shaking of the ground and the sudden impact, Shinji Matou's body, which had never undergone any training, quickly became extremely unstable and fell backwards.
Drake also quickly appeared behind Shinji Matou and caught him steadily at the moment he was about to fall.
Then——
"What are you going to do, you brainless woman!!!!!!!"
Drake ignored the impact and carried Shinji Matou steadily on his shoulders.
"Don't panic, Master. We need to find out what happened over there!"
With a very hearty laugh, Drake carried Shinji Matou on his back and stepped on the thick stone pillars standing beside him, and jumped towards the top.
“That’s——”
Standing on a high place, the scene that looked like being bombed by missiles appeared in front of Shinji Matou.
If they had not left the area long ago, they would have been swept up in such a horrific explosion.
"Why did the explosion occur?"
At this time, Matou Shinji's mind was a little confused, because there were no servants fighting in front of him. If the explosion was caused by a fight between servants, then Matou Shinji could naturally make a very easy judgment.
"Haven't you figured it out yet? That's where you hide information about me."
"But isn't it a gorge where I hide my books?"
Under such a powerful impact, the canyon could not maintain its integrity at all. The cliffs lined up on the side near the coast collapsed along with the violent explosion.
Now there was no trace of the canyon as it had been before; the entire area was covered in rubble and smoke.
"No, why should we turn to——"
Before he could finish his words, Matou Shinji figured it out.
Why did he hide Drake's information in the arena? It was because he couldn't bring it into his room and couldn't really destroy it, so he had to resort to this desperate measure.
If Mooncell set these books as indestructible, the first thing that Shinji Matou would think of is to use the books to make defensive equipment.
Unfortunately, the settings of Mooncell are very strict. Everything he encounters can be destroyed just like in real life. At most, they can be restored after being destroyed.
But he didn't expect that Emiya Shirou would use such a simple and crude way to obtain the information that he had hidden with great difficulty.
Whether it was finding out all of Drake's information or modifying the logic of those electronic devices and NPCs through hacking methods, it took him a lot of energy.
Shinji Matou even anticipated that Shirou Emiya would be able to find the books he had hidden, and set up many traps near the wooden box using hacking methods.
Even distorted data was set around the wooden box.
If Shirou Emiya steps in, he will be sealed inside by these distorted data and will have no way out.
These are all things he designed in a day using his hacking skills.
"I originally thought you were just a bad guy who had accomplished nothing, but I didn't expect you to have such a talent that can be called a genius—"
"But I'm the Asian gaming champion. These things are nothing. Also, I'm not some villain. Don't confuse me with you, a woman who only thinks about treasure and alcohol--!"
In response to Drake's praise, Shinji Matou also showed a proud expression.
Matching his ability to look down on others is his talent that is beyond the reach of many people.
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!”
Looking at Shinji Matou's proud expression, Drake laughed extremely intensely.
"It's really interesting. He's just a minor character, but he has such talent."
"Wait a minute!!! Stop it! Don't touch my head with your hand that just drank!!!!!!"
With an extremely unwilling voice, Matou Shinji resisted the big hand full of alcohol.
However, facing the power of the Servant, all his resistance was in vain.
However, faced with everything he had racked his brains and put so much thought into designing, Shirou Emiya destroyed it all in the simplest way.
Shirou Emiya was also glad that he had studied at Tokyo Butei High School, and was also glad that he had confronted the [Butei Killer] head-on.
The first thing he did was to break away from the rules designed by the enemy and think from other perspectives.
As the Asian gaming champion, Shinji Matou's mind worked rapidly after Drake's reminder, and he immediately understood what Shirou Emiya was thinking.
Just as he uses the game's mechanics to quickly complete the game, Emiya Shirou also uses the rules of this world to break through the rules he set.
Whether or not he had set a trap in the place where the book was hidden, Emiya Shirou didn't need to go and confirm it.
It is enough to destroy the trap along with the book.
Because the damaged books will appear in the library again, Shirou Emiya doesn't even need to take any risks. He can just quickly return to the library after destroying the books.
No matter how fast he acted, he could not stop Shirou Emiya from obtaining Drake's information from the library.
