After a long journey, they arrived at the spiritual vein discovered by Dr. Roman on Mount Etna!

If Nero knew that the spiritual vein was here, she wouldn't have to take a long detour, but she herself didn't know her destination.

"The doctor only provided the longitude and latitude. We need to search for the spiritual vein ourselves."

Matthew tried to explain, but her wording sounded like a difficult question deliberately posed by the doctor.

"Mashu, contact Dr. Roman. We have found the spiritual vein."

Lucifer sensed the scorching heat around him, and he actively absorbed the surrounding heat energy to adjust the temperature and alleviate the team's discomfort.

Chaldea seemed to be waiting for their message at any moment.

"Doctor, you haven't rested yet?"

Mash noticed that Roman still had dark circles under his eyes and immediately gave him a reminder.

"Well, I took a short nap."

Roman hurried to explain.

"Okay, let's set up the terminal quickly."

He quickly changed the subject...

Mashu felt helpless, but as they set off, a strange atmosphere filled the air.

"Hey, why didn't I know that Mount Etna was haunted by ghosts like this?"

Nero looked at the undead spirits that suddenly appeared and couldn't help but utter his catchphrase.

Although she had seen the heroic figures of ancient Roman emperors, this surreal ghost still surprised her.

"I'm afraid these undead spirits are not caused by the Holy Grail. Perhaps this leyline has magical power beyond imagination, which attracted them here."

Dr. Roman analyzed. He was extremely surprised. He didn't expect that the earth vein he found casually could hide such power.

"Master, please step back!"

Mashu hurriedly protected Raphael behind him.

"Oh, okay, I understand."

Raphael suddenly realized that those ghosts were just troublesome characters in the game. When he first arrived, he lacked powerful servants and was often troubled by this. Now seeing them again, he couldn't help but recall that time, and he could hardly restrain the urge to deal with these spirits.

The ghost seemed to sense something and disappeared in an instant.

"Hey, they ran away?"

Mashu was extremely surprised, and even Nero, who was preparing for battle, did not expect all this to happen so suddenly.

Scathach glanced at Raphael but said nothing. She had the ability to destroy these undead spirits, but she couldn't scare them. These ghosts had no sense of fear at all.

"Roar!"

However, what escaped was only an insignificant spirit. Immediately afterwards, a giant ghost that was dozens of times larger than an ordinary undead appeared, bringing an astonishing deterrent effect.

"Could it be that they were scared away by this giant ghost?"

Mashu and the others immediately thought of this, otherwise how could they have such a ridiculous reason to think that Raphael scared them away?

The presence of the giant ghost was like the arrival of a great enemy, and Nero immediately drew his sword and rushed towards it.

"Wait, Your Majesty!"

Mashu reminded that Nero was, after all, only a mortal, albeit an exceptionally brave one.

"Scathach."

Raphael looked at Scathach.

"understood."

Scathach also knew that she could not let Nero fall into danger, so she immediately turned the magic spear in her hand, and she jumped above the ghost before Nero fought with the giant ghost. Her movements were as fast as lightning, and neither the ghost nor Nero had time to react.

Scathach, who was as cold and hard as a stone, stabbed the giant's head with two guns at the same time, which immediately triggered its legendary ability to destroy everything, and the giant collapsed instantly!

If there is still health points to deal with in the game settings, but in reality, as long as Scathach is not facing a top servant or a champion, she can basically kill it instantly.

"It's over, Mashu, let's quickly build the terminal. These ghosts won't come back."

Raphael looked for the ghosts to see if they had dropped any loot, but found nothing. He couldn't help but sneer, thinking that these ghosts were just like mediocre evil spirits, good for nothing.

Raphael looked at these undead with disdain. They left nothing behind. How disgusting.

Is it worthy of his... no, Scathach's efforts?

However, does it also prove that Scathach is actually unlucky?

Because Mashu was the only one who could operate the Lethal Terminus Station, even though Raphael absorbed the surrounding heat for her to relieve the high temperature, Mashu was still sweating profusely and did not complete the setup until noon.

"Are you done yet?"

Nero stared at them.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mash responded.

"Then let's hold a banquet. You have helped me many times since you came here, but I haven't been able to entertain you. Let today's banquet be a grand thank you to you!"

Nero said immediately with passion.

"As expected of Nero..."

Raphael said so.

"Are you saying that Nero is the same as in history?"

Mashu asked in confusion.

"No, I just think there are cultural differences between the East and the West."

Raphael explained.

"Hey?"

Mashu still didn't quite understand.

"It always seems unlucky to pop champagne in the middle of a celebration."

Raphael commented.

However, Nero seemed unaware of this, or rather, she thought there was nothing wrong with it.

The tense atmosphere in Rome was swept away at the following banquet, and everyone seemed to have temporarily forgotten the previous war.

"For Rome, the top priority is of course the banquet!"

Nero declared to Raphael and the others.

"Raphael, I have decided. I must seize this opportunity and fight to the end!"

Nero declared with a serious and firm look.

"Finally made up your mind?"

Raphael thought that this should have been done a long time ago, and wondered what Nero was thinking.

"That's right. With the remaining strength and your help, I will have a chance of winning!"

Nero was not a fool. She had long been determined to win the battle, but she lacked the chips to go all out.

Therefore, Nero spent a few days observing Raphael and his men to make sure they were trustworthy and capable. At a time when Rome was badly damaged and only one-tenth of its glory days remained, what she needed most was the strength of Raphael and his men.

Therefore, she acted with extreme caution, repeatedly testing the character and bottom line of Raphael and his friends. It was not until Raphael and his friends knew the secrets of Chaldea without caring about being followed by her that Nero was convinced that the foundation of their cooperation had been formed.

In Nero's eyes, Lucifer, the leader with both nominal and real power, was clearly in control of the overall situation. Recently, apart from the mysterious magician of Chaldea, no one could be behind the scenes. At this moment, in her view, Lucifer was indeed an unquestionable core figure.

Not only that, he also showed extraordinary wisdom, and Nero was convinced that there was nothing wrong with Lucifer leading everyone. Others had no doubts about the orders he issued, only Scathach, she was the woman that Nero could not see through the most. But she had no malice and did not pay attention to trivial matters. If he wanted to use her power, he might have to go through Lucifer.
