Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

The "Holy Spear" naturally does not allow the existence of such things, as it should.

As for the authenticity of Yi Guang's words, the Lion King certainly has no doubts.The existence of parallel worlds has long been proven under the system of the "Fate" series. The second method of the "Five Great Magics" that stands at the top of the mystery is "parallel world interference".As a god like the Lion King, under certain conditions, it can also observe the existence of certain parallel worlds.

For example, someone explained the story of another world line in a narrative way.If this is true, then the act of "explaining" will become the medium of "cause and effect", and the existence with the perspective of gods can observe the existence of parallel worlds.Just like now, while the Lion King was listening to Yi Guang's narration, her godly eyes also saw the black "Storm King".Naturally, he also knew that what Yi Guang just said was true.

The reason why the ceremony of "Returning the Holy Sword" allows the Lion King to regain human memories and emotions is not because the "Holy Sword" itself has the ability to suppress the "Holy Lance", but only because the "Lion King" in this world line "It was originally transformed by mistake from "King Arthur" who used the "Holy Sword".For the "Lion King", the return of the "Holy Sword" represents "the rest of King Arthur" and "the end of King Arthur's life"-this is a ceremony, a process that allows her to change from a "holy undead" back to a "human being". "The ceremony.

Theoretically, after this ritual is completed, the existence named Lion King will end his life as a human and go to the outside of the world named "Avalon".Everything will be back to normal as in the legend.Therefore, this ritual can only be performed once, after all, the end of human life is only once.

However, because of the current situation of this singularity, even the Lion King who has regained the concept of "humanity" cannot let it go. The closed singularity also prevents her from returning to "Avalon" and completing her own legend.Therefore, everything returned to the situation faced by King Arthur 500 years ago. The king who could not complete his legend continued to stay in this world, and at the same time had to continue to use the power of the "Holy Lance".

If this continues, sooner or later her body will be eroded by the "Holy Lance" again, and this time there will be no "Returning the Holy Sword" ceremony to infuse her with the concept of "humanity".

"So, you only have two choices." Yi Guang looked at the goddess who showed emotional fluctuations, tilted his head slightly, and said, "First, cut off your own arm and destroy the 'Holy Spear'. But for now ,it's out of the question."

"That's natural. Once the 'Holy Lance' is destroyed, it means that we voluntarily surrender to the other two parties, and we will lose the biggest support of the 'Holy Capital'." The Lion King said coldly, "When it is not possible to determine whether Chaldea will Before being able to save humanity, the "Holy Chosen Project" must continue to be implemented. I am not optimistic about the prospects of those people. Compared with the question of whether I will be eroded by the "Holy Gun" again, it is obviously a proposition to ensure the survival of mankind more important."

If he becomes the "Goddess Rungomigniad" again, it will only be in vain that Mr. Bedivere's painstaking efforts will be in vain.But if it is for this reason to actively destroy the "Holy Lance" and abandon the construction of the "Human Ark", it would be an insult to all the knights who died during the planning and implementation stages of this plan.Sir Bedivere's search for thousands of years is loyal and moving, but those knights under his command are willing to support him even if they kill their compatriots and degenerate into beasts.Could they be denied because of Bedivere alone?

Of course it can't. Now, even if Arturia has regained the heart of humanity, the "Holy Choice Project" cannot be stopped.Because it has already borne the sacrifices of too many people, and countless blood has built the huge "Doomsday Archives" of the "Holy Capital". This is not something Artoria can decide and cancel at will.Similarly, this is not something that Bedivere or Chaldea can deny or cover up at will.

Naturally, the Lion King knew this truth, and so did Yi Guang.That's why Yi Guang consciously has the possibility of persuading the Lion King. If the Lion King can really sever a strong man's wrist, then Yi Guang naturally doesn't have to work in vain.

"So, I have only one choice left, and that is to find the existence that can suppress the 'Holy Lance', just like the 'Holy Grail Curse'." The Lion King snorted coldly, "So this is your conspiracy, because Under the current circumstances, it is impossible for me to leave this singularity to find some 'Holy Grail Curse', the only option I have is to cooperate with you further."

"However, this doesn't do you any harm. If the powers of the two of us can indeed solve the problems faced by each other, it will be a win-win situation." Yi Guang still looked at the Lion King with confidence, "Or, regaining the human You who are emotional, have started to learn 'suspicion' and 'doubt'?"

"I don't deny this, because your origin is indeed worthy of my feelings." The Lion King is also blunt, "After all, you are an existence outside this world, in other words, the life and death of human beings in this world has nothing to do with you , you don’t even have any moral responsibility. And because of your arrival, the direction of this singularity has become more and more distorted, and the unknown existence behind you has even closed the entire space of the singularity. Now, even if it is the Demon King, It is also impossible to observe and interfere here.”

"So you feel uneasy? Feel fear?" Yi Guang frowned, "Well, it seems that asking Bedivere to return the 'Holy Sword' early was a mistake to some extent, and I was digging a hole Buried myself."

"I don't think it was a mistake, you let him go." The Lion King sighed softly, "You don't really think it's a mistake, do you?"

"Of course not, even if I knew the current result, I would still do that." Yi Guang shook his head, "It's just that the king, who was originally completely rational, now has such a reaction to me because of 'suspicion' and 'uneasiness'. Distrust makes me feel like I'm just making the task harder for myself."

"This is something that had to be expected before, and you still haven't thought about it, Lanza." The Lion King just smiled lightly at Yi Guang's statement, "But your conspiracy is remarkable. , I really don’t have much choice right now. My personal feelings can’t change the course of things. At this stage, we need each other’s help... As you said, whether it’s for myself or for Bei Sir Dewell, I don't even want to change back to my previous state again."

"So, can I say that I won? Your Excellency the Lion King?" Yi Guang smiled slightly.

"Let's just say that..." The Lion King said angrily, "I feel more and more confused about your origin. There is a serious information gap between us, which makes me lead you by the nose. The feeling of walking."

"Please don't say that, after all, I came to this world alone, and I have to deal with my kind who have malicious intentions." Yi Guang waved his hand, "Look, if I don't have any advantage in intelligence, I You can’t gain a foothold in this world at all, can you?”

"I would rather hope that you would not appear in this world, adding more variables." The Lion King sighed with some inexplicable emotion, "Tell me, how do you want to complete the research on the 'Holy Lance'?"

"Hmm... To be honest, I don't have any idea about this matter, after all, it was an accidental discovery." Asked this question, Yi Guang was also a little bit blind, "Do you have a means to extract or store your own energy?"

"This... I haven't researched it. I haven't deliberately developed similar means except transforming the 'serious knight' and the 'Holy Grail blessing'." The Lion King thought for a while and said, "Maybe, I can give you something like A 'dire' blessing like Lancelot's should be the closest form of power to the essence of the 'Holy Lance'."

"Qi Lie? Indeed, the power to keep people [-]% calm may really be able to suppress the burning flames in my body." Yi Guang nodded, "Since it's a groping, why not give it a try, please."

"Stick your head over here, please..."

The Lion King nodded without talking nonsense, and gently placed his hand on the top of Yi Guang's head. The golden energy gathered around him, gradually showing a cup-like shape.

Chapter 513 Failed Attempts

Among the many legends of King Arthur, compared with the "Holy Sword Excalibur" bestowed by the "Lake Fairy" held by King Arthur, the "Holy Lance Rhongomyniad" is actually far less compelling and popular—or more clear Some, the weapon known as the "Pioneer Gun" actually has no special sense of existence in the entire King Arthur legend system.Except for stabbing Mordred to death at the end, the gun was basically not discussed too much in King Arthur's life.

In fact, the most famous part of the legend of King Arthur, apart from pulling out the "Sword in the Stone·Caliburn" and using the "Holy Sword·Excalibur" to unite Britain, is the legend about sending several knights to find the Holy Grail.Even, "The Death of King Arthur", which is the main body of the legend of King Arthur, itself is an extremely important part of the European "Holy Grail legend" system.From Percival to Galahad, the story of King Arthur's knights looking for the Holy Grail is even more famous than the original religious legend of the Holy Grail. It is so famous that even most people in the Christian cultural circle know the Holy Grail through the legend of King Arthur. The presence.

As it has been said: Thomas Malory's Morte d'Arthur has had a greater influence on the Grail lore over the past 500 years than any other work imaginable.

This may be why the creator of the "Fate" series, Brother Jun, chose the protagonist of the "Holy Grail War" as the "magic modified King Arthur" Artoria from the very beginning.The legend of King Arthur and the legend of the Holy Grail have largely become one with each other and are inseparable.

Even, this connection was also shown in Chapter 6 of "FGO".The Lion King, a subspecies of King Arthur, did not get the Holy Grail, but the power she bestowed on the knights was called the "Holy Grail Blessing".This can be regarded as the obsession of this legendary king for his greatest wish during his lifetime.

But now, Yi Guang took the initiative to accept this "blessing" in order to explore the essence of the power of the "Holy Spear".According to the description in the plot of Aggie Wen, once you accept this blessing, it is equivalent to becoming a "part" of the Lion King.Therefore, thinking about it, this blessing must have come directly from the power of the Lion King, or the "Holy Lance" itself.

"Stick your head over here, please..."

With the activation of the Lion King's power, the golden sacred light condensed into a hazy shadow and appeared around Yi Guang's body. It was the so-called "Holy Grail" statue handed down from medieval European religious culture.As the "Holy Grail" gradually condensed into shape, Yi Guang felt a wave of energy flowing from his celestial cap into his body.

"Well……"

As expected, the moment this force entered Yi Guang's body, the flames burning in Yi Guang's body began to undergo drastic changes.The flames that originally flowed continuously like water in the body began to "boil" the moment this force came into contact, just like concentrated sulfuric acid meeting water.At the same time, the divine fire with a golden color gradually appeared on the surface of Yi Guang's body.Started to counterattack and erode towards the phantom of the Holy Grail.Even, the hands of the Lion King were burned by the divine flame under unexpected circumstances, so she had to interrupt the ceremony.

"This flame..."

However, the Lion King didn't show any anger or panic because her hand was burned. She looked at her burned hand with an incomprehensible expression.A few strange rays of light emanated from her pupils, which also seemed to be burning with golden flames.

And as the ceremony of the Lion King was interrupted, the "Holy Grail" around Yi Guang also collapsed in an instant.The golden flame quickly burned up the power belonging to the Lion King, and then also disappeared into the air.

"Okay, it seems to have failed..."

This situation was completely different from the previous time when the power of the "Suzheng Knight" entered his body, which made Yi Guang somewhat frustrated and surprised.He calmed down his still a little restless flame power a little bit, and then showed a very helpless expression to the Lion King—the current situation indicated that his inference was wrong.Perhaps from the very beginning, the power of the "serious knight" to suppress the flames was not at all due to the "Holy Lance".

However, if it wasn't because of the "Holy Lance", what else would it be? Could it be that the manufacturing process of the "Suzheng Knight" still involves something else that can suppress his current flame divinity?

"No, your conclusion should be correct." The Lion King shook his head, and then touched the part of himself that was burned by the flame with his other hand, "Your flame just launched a counterattack against me, there is A part of it flowed into my body reversely. As you deduced before, certain properties of the 'Holy Lance' were suppressed... You are not pure flame power, are you?"

"It's really not, because of the previous journey, my divinity has added a lot of strange things." Yi Guang replied honestly, "If there is something that has changed the nature of the 'Holy Lance' If it affects anything, it is probably aimed at the part of the 'soul'?"

"Soul? I did sense it before..." The Lion King pondered, "The power of the 'Holy Lance' will erode the soul. If it is another kind of power that is completely different but can also affect the soul to exert force on it." In terms of influence, it is not unimaginable to be able to restrain its power. So, the flame is just an appearance, and what can actually help me is your interference with the soul?"

"However, this is a part of my flame. As for the source of this power, it should be another greater thing." Yi Guang quickly understood the key, "The power named 'First Fire', That is the origin of wisdom and civilization in a certain world. I was fortunate enough to come into contact with this power and bathed in its light, and my own flame was also contaminated with the breath of that power."

"I see, but judging from your situation, that power should have a great negative impact, right?" The Lion King looked at Yi Guang and said, "After direct contact, you can feel it, which is almost burning. Do everything."

"That's why I hope to rely on the 'Holy Gun' to solve this problem. Although I won't die for such a ridiculous reason. However, every battle will bring some burden to myself, which is indeed a bit of a headache." Yi Guang shook his head, "But it seems that the 'Holy Gun' can't heal me."

"That's not necessarily the case. If you give me some time, maybe I can solve this problem." The Lion King said after thinking for a while, "Perhaps, it's not because the 'Holy Lance' doesn't work for your situation, but because I The 'blessing' itself has some kind of 'hostility'. Let your flame resist me unconsciously."

"Hostile?" Yi Guang frowned, "You mean, 'Blessing' comes with the desire to control?"

Chapter 514 Sanzang's Whereabouts

In the original plot of the sixth singularity of "FGO", Aggavin, who surrounded Chaldea in the "Round Table Fortress", once said that accepting the "Holy Grail Blessing" is equivalent to forming a contract with the Lion King. Became the familiar of the Lion King.He doesn't want this blessing, because he needs to retain the ability to do extraordinary things to the king in "just in case".

Therefore, it can be known that the essence of the "Holy Grail Blessing" is a subordinate contract with a dominant meaning.Regardless of whether the Lion King himself has such a will, this contract itself has such an effect.Therefore, Yi Guang's attempt failed, his flames would not resist the "Holy Lance Power" in the "Suzheng Knight", because it was pure power without any tendency.The "Holy Grail Blessing" itself has the meaning of coercive domination. Also as the power of the gods, the flames overflowing with divinity in Yi Guang's body should have shown resistance.

The existence of two identical persons, wanting to show the desire to dominate the other, is itself equivalent to declaring war.

"Well, I didn't think about it, I didn't expect your blessing to be judged as an 'attack'." After understanding the cause and effect of this incident, Yi Guang said dejectedly, "Then, is there any other way? "

"Do you want to use the power of the 'Holy Lance' directly? That will speed up the deployment of the 'Border Tower'. But the preparatory work has not been completed, and the 'Holy Selection' has not yet selected enough numbers." The Lion King shook his head, "Thanks to you, the capacity of the 'Holy Gun' has been greatly increased, and it is still expanding up to now. It is expected that the number of people it can carry will exceed 1. With the current progress, it will take quite a while to be able to move on to the next stage.”

"Is there only 1 people?" Yi Guang sighed, "In such an apocalypse, what is the essential difference between saving 1 people and saving 500 people? Human civilization has come to an end after all."

"Of course, at least for those extra people, their 'existence' has been preserved." The Lion King disagreed with Yi Guang's statement, "Moreover, compared to the fact that they could only survive as unconscious soul specimens, now These people can live peacefully in the virtual reality constructed by the 'Holy Gun'. These are the changes you brought about, although they are insignificant, but for those who are saved, they are finally developing in a good direction. Originally Thousands of people who should be abandoned have gained the possibility of living because of your arrival, what else are you not satisfied with?"

"Maybe I'm too pessimistic..." Yi Guang sighed.

"No, that's just because you're too 'greedy', plus you're a little naive." The Lion King glanced at Yi Guang, "Maybe you should be on the side of Chaldea, your thoughts are very similar to theirs... But for me, I personally feel a little naive and unrealistic. Everyone wants to save the world, but the size of our ability determines how much we can do in the end. It is enough to do our best. Even the gods can There is a limit after all.”

Yi Guang didn't reply to this, but just let out a long sigh.

"You should consider sneaking into the Egyptian territory first. I will solve the problem of how to stably extract the power of the 'Holy Lance' during this period of time." The Lion King said after pondering for a while, "At the same time, I also need to Think about how to fuse your flames safely. It has to be said that if this matter is completed, it will be a great thing for us."

"Then, I hope your Excellency can come to a conclusion as soon as possible." Yi Guang nodded, "I'll go see if the people over there have come to any conclusions."

After leaving these words, Yi Guang left the martial arts arena, and turned to look for the knights who had left first to see who they were going to let lead the team to cooperate with his plan.The research on the "Holy Lance" is really not urgent, because even if useful conclusions are drawn now, it is not easy to solve the problems I am currently facing.Compared to this, it's better to focus on the upcoming infiltration first, he doesn't think Caster will do nothing after a defeat, the high priest must be brewing something in the desert.

……

"Wow! Help! If I had known, I wouldn't have sent Fujita out!"

Relying on the prestige of the "holy capital", Yiguang was preparing to mobilize his troops to carry out a sneaky decapitation operation on the great temple in the Egyptian desert, while everyone in Chaldea was recuperating, and Fujimaru Tachika was familiarizing himself with what he had obtained. At the moment of strength, in the Egyptian territory that has been flying all year round, a voice in embarrassment is staggering and galloping in a rather embarrassing way.And around this figure, there are countless "sphinxes" aiming at this figure and constantly gathering.

Obviously, this group of "sphinxes" gathered around, definitely not just for fun or to join in the fun.Although they are fantasy species living in the Age of Gods, they are still beasts in essence, so of course they will have a primitive appetite for humans or other non-similar creatures.

"Why is it me every time! Wukong, save me... Wow!"

Probably because he was walking too fast, the figure suddenly became inattentive and got stuck in the sandpit with one foot.The body that was running stopped suddenly, but because of the law of inertia, the whole person suddenly fell forward.In an instant, the figure of that person rolled into a ball, and then the whole person fell to pieces on the sand.

"Well, it hurts..."

The man couldn't help wailing, and unconsciously rubbed all over his body while getting up.However, when the man managed to get up from the ground, he found that he had nowhere to escape—the group of "sphinxes" had surrounded him from all directions.

"It's over, it's over... I'm going to be eaten."

"You have nowhere to escape, Master Sanzang...be obediently and let him be captured."

The surrounding "sphinxes" stopped moving after approaching Master Sanzang for a certain distance, and then a thick and somewhat noisy sound came from the air.At the same time, the strong wind in the desert also rolled up the yellow sand all over the sky, and then condensed it into a specific shape in the air.

That's a human face.

If it was Yiguang or everyone from Chaldea here, they would probably recognize at a glance that this was the Caster who had schemed against them before, and even almost succeeded.This is not surprising, this is the land of Egypt under the rule of Pharaoh Ozymandias, and the host of the Caster class is currently his high priest.Although the pharaoh didn't trust this outsider, the two sides were allies after all and he was powerful. Under some fearful circumstances, pharaoh Ozymandias still gave the high priest a considerable amount of authority.

With the advantage of being familiar with the plot, this Mr. Caster waited early in the morning, and found and trapped the Sanzang mage who left the "Holy Capital Camelot" and traveled around the world to this desert.

"It seems that you can't escape anymore, Master Sanzang... After running away for so long, you finally can't hold on?"

Although Caster had locked on the location of Master Sanzang early in the morning, this monk was famous for retrieving Buddhist scriptures from Tianzhu after going through "Nine Nine Eighty-One Difficulties".Her lucky value is judged to be an extreme EX level. Even in the encirclement net designed by Caster, she still managed to escape by various means, and dealt with Caster for a long time.Not only that, she also sent her "disciple" Zhuan Tengtai who was traveling with her to this enchantment.

"As a teacher, I can hold on for the time being. Hurry up and find someone to help deal with this monster! The other party's target is me. As long as I'm still here to circle around with him, he will definitely not care about you." Yes, hurry up and find some powerful helpers to save me!"

After leaving such words, the servant named "Sanzang Xuanzang" sent the disciple of the servant he met at this singularity out of this enchantment.In fact, she didn't know that there would be no reinforcements coming to rescue him. The other party was a monster far beyond her imagination, and even the palm technique passed down by the Buddha had no effect on him.He turned the entire desert into his own ghost, and he was trapped in it, and there was no way to break out. It was an extremely rare opportunity for Fujita to escape, and there was no second chance in the current situation.

To deal with such monsters, I am afraid that the super-personal existence ability of the Lion King in the "Holy Capital" is needed. How could Fujita find such a rescuer?I just want him to escape, even though I am useless, scared, and want to escape.But, how can this be, Fujita is his apprentice... Since he is the master, it is right to let him run away first in order to protect the disciple.

That's what the Buddha and the Bodhisattva said...probably.

"Don't worry, Master Sanzang, I am not going to kill you or take any other harmful actions against you." Caster's voice came again, "You are the key to me against the 'Holy Capital', as long as you cooperate with me obediently, we will I will definitely not be rough on you. If I really want to be against you, you must not be able to live until now, right?"

"Holy Capital..." Master Sanzang's eyes moved, "Do you want to do something about the 'Holy Capital'?"

"This has nothing to do with you. Anyway, you are not a heroic spirit on this land. What does the matter here have to do with you? A holy monk traveling west." Caster entered the mode of persuading him to surrender, "As long as you help me, I will It will guarantee your safety, and at the same time, after everything is over, let you continue westward to find your Tianzhu..."

To be honest, Sanzang felt that he could not believe a single punctuation of what the other party said.But at present the opponent has an absolute advantage, Sanzang is surrounded by a group of fantasy monsters, even if he doesn't want to hear it, he can only endure it.In other words, this is simply a "multiple choice question" with no choice.

But of course I don't want to take action against everyone in the "Holy Capital" because of the coercion of this kind of person.Although they are all a bit weird, and they seem to be hiding something from themselves, they are indeed good people.

Lord Buddha, even though I can no longer hear your voice, my disciple still begs you sincerely, come and accept this evildoer!

"Of course, if you don't cooperate, I can't guarantee what these guys around you will do." Caster continued to persuade him to surrender. Anyway, he now has the upper hand, and wants to rely on Sanzang's power to break through the gate of the "Holy Capital" , it's better for her to be willing, "Huh? Wait a minute, what's going on?"

Suddenly, Caster's words changed suddenly, which made Sanzang feel a little strange, but soon she noticed something was wrong - a powerful energy burst out from above without warning.

"Oh? What's that? A shooting star?"

Sanzang looked blankly at a small dot in the sky that kept enlarging in front of his eyes, and then when the other party was quite close to him, he realized that it seemed to be... a human being?Or a follower or something.

Yes, a human-shaped thing fell from the sky without warning, and then fell into the "sphinx" herd with its head on the ground.
