The Fruit of Surgery

"What should we do now?" Looking at the cruel officials who surrounded them, Dion immediately asked the Master in a low voice.

"Wait a minute, they didn't attack immediately." Ritsuka looked around, looking for the possibility of breaking out, and said in a low voice. Although it is the best time to break out while the enemy has not completed the encirclement, it will be difficult to sneak in next time. In order to repair this singularity, some risks have to be taken.

"Welcome to the City That Never Sleeps, Master of Chaldea, I didn't expect you to come so soon. Are you calling, forget it, just call you a faint sheep."

After the cruel officials surrounded Mashu, Ritsuka and his party, the voice of the empress came from the execution platform in front. No figure was seen, and it turned out that she was hiding underground.

"Your Majesty, you invited us to the City That Never Sleeps, is this how you treat guests?" Ritsuka looked around and said so.

"This is my disrespect."

"Your Majesty, I." At this time, the man who betrayed Mashu and Ritsuka's party spoke. However, before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the empress.

"Shut up, you dare to interrupt me, drag you down and give you twenty slaps, twenty lashes, and pour boiling water into your mouth." The empress's cold words made the man tremble. Just as he was about to open his mouth to defend himself, the cruel official beside him slapped him to the ground, and then two cruel officials came behind him, dragged him down, and prepared to execute him.

"I will give you the reward you deserve, and the same goes for the punishment you deserve. In my case, there is no offset between merits and demerits." The empress continued to say to the man who was dragged away.

"I was rude before, so I will make an exception and let you enter my palace." As soon as the empress finished speaking, she suddenly heard the voices of other people around her, but because the voices were too low, Mashu, Ritsuka and others did not hear clearly what was said. The only thing they could hear was the female voice.

"What danger? It's meaningless. With me here, what danger will there be? As for the meaning, why do you think I invited them to my city that never sleeps? I just want them to see my palace. This is a mechanism that I have made with great difficulty. It would be a pity if no one appreciates it."

The voice of the empress sounded again on the execution platform. Then Mashu, Lixiang and others saw the execution platform split from the middle to both sides, revealing a huge cave below. Then they saw a magnificent, beautiful, and brightly lit tower rising from the ground.

The entire tower is nine stories high and looks very luxurious. Above the gate of the first floor of the tower, there is an equally magnificent and glittering plaque with three big characters "Yaoguang Palace" written on it. It is the palace built by the empress during her lifetime.

"Let's go."

Looking at the Yaoguang Palace with the gate opened in front of her, Lixiang immediately took the lead and walked forward after a moment of silence. Now there is a dragon's den and a tiger's lair ahead, and she has to go in too.

As for the purpose of the empress inviting them, Mashu, Lixiang and his party felt a little speechless. It turned out that they were invited here just to show off her mechanism, although this is indeed very shocking.

"That's right. If no one appreciates the work that was completed with great difficulty, wouldn't it be a waste of the pearl to be covered in dust."

Da Vinci agreed with the empress's point of view very much. If Mona Lisa was not made public, how could it become a world-famous painting? Holmes also nodded silently, and his reasoning was actually the same.

Although there is a saying that villains die because of talking too much, that is the villain. If it is replaced by a decent person, it is to reveal the whole conspiracy and let you die clearly.

"Welcome to my Yaoguang Palace, this is the magician." In the hall on the first floor of Yaoguang Palace, Lixiang and his party met the empress and another servant behind her, the magician.

At the same time, there were cruel officials standing on both sides of them.

"I am Scheherazade, the military advisor of Her Majesty the Empress."

The magician behind Her Majesty the Empress seemed very reluctant, but since the Empress had spoken, she still introduced herself, her real name, and the fact that she was once the military advisor of the pirate princess Dayu.

It was she who told the Empress the plan to flood the water city of Is, for a simple reason, because she had offered advice to Dayu several times, asking her to consider the future, but Dayu was only concerned with pleasure and did not listen to her at all, so she surrendered to the Empress and copied the key to the flood gate.

Of the three major forces in the underground world, only the female pirates only wanted to plunder and did not want to annex the other two major forces. The Empress and the Queen of Amazon had always wanted to annex the other two major forces and unify the underground world.

"Scheherazade, I didn't expect it to be her." Knowing the magician's real name, Chaldea immediately knew all the legends of her life. This was a very famous servant. Even if Shen Fei did not know her real name, he knew her deeds. She was the heroine of the legendary One Thousand and One Nights.

Even though Shen Fei didn't know much about the story of One Thousand and One Nights.

"What do you think of my Never-Sleeping City? Is it prosperous? Compared with the water city of Ys, how is the Golden City? Do you want to join the Never-Sleeping City?" After Scheherazade finished introducing herself, the empress immediately asked Li Xiang about his thoughts on the Never-Sleeping City.

"On the surface, it seems that you are indeed more prosperous than the water city of Ys, but in fact, you are exactly the same as there." Li Xiang said straightforwardly.

"Be bold, my city that never sleeps is just, glorious, and peaceful." The empress immediately shouted angrily.

"This is just an illusion, an illusion obtained through violence." Li Xiang immediately talked about the problems in the city that never sleeps, especially the problems with the whistleblower system, which is too cruel, and there are also issues such as unjust, false and wrongful convictions.

"These are just labor pains. As long as it continues to develop, the concept of sin will be removed from this city."

"I admire your idea, but unfortunately it is impossible to do."

Although Ritsuka agrees with the Empress's idea of ​​completely eliminating evil, as a human being, she knows very well that this kind of thing cannot be done. If humans can do this kind of thing, there will be no reason to incinerate the seven major human evils. .

"Very well, you have angered me. Since you don't agree with my city that never sleeps, then just stay." Perhaps because she saw that Ritsuka's belief had been determined and she could not be persuaded, the empress no longer tried to use words to persuade Ritsuka and his party. , but prepared to fight.

"Although I don't want to fight, I don't want you to destroy the Nightless City." The magician looked very reluctant to fight, but in the end he still stood by the empress' side.

"Kill them." As the empress' command came out, the cruel officials on the side immediately rushed towards Mashu, Ritsuka and others with hammers.

"The pursuit is the next night. And then again, the pursuit of the next night. This is the never-ending wish story woven by my words, the Thousand and One Nights. That's it for tonight."

When the cool officials took action, the magician immediately used his Noble Phantasm. The decisiveness of his attack shocked Mashu, Ritsuka and others. Servants usually release their Noble Phantasms at critical moments to use them. As a means of victory or defeat, few people release the Noble Phantasm from the beginning. What's more, the expression on the magician's face that she didn't want to fight made it easy for him to think about whether she would let go during the battle.

As a result, not to mention letting go, the opponent used all his strength from the beginning.

"Back off, Matthew."

"Yes, senior, that is our hometown that can heal all scars and all resentments. Show us the ideal city that is already far away."

Under Ritsuka's instructions, the group immediately retreated towards the door of the hall. At the same time, after receiving her instructions, Mashu immediately released her Noble Phantasm.

Mashu and Ritsuka have a perfect tacit understanding. According to the game, the bond between the two parties is full. Ritsuka doesn't need to give him specific instructions at all, Mashu will know what he wants him to do.

Relying on Mashu's Noble Phantasm, she blocked the attack from the magician Scheherazade. Her Noble Phantasm was to summon elf monsters from the Tales of One Thousand and One Nights to attack, both in quantity and attack power. Weak. If Ritsuka hadn't immediately retreated and asked Mashu to use his Noble Phantasm to defend, the group would have been in danger.

"The lily of the royal family lasts forever, the lily blooms luxuriously and gorgeously."

"Disappear and summon the Magic Flute of Panic."

After Mashu blocked the attack from the enemy, Dion immediately activated his Noble Phantasm, and lilies fell from the sky, making the cool officials freeze in their movements.

Then Astolfo's Noble Phantasm, the big golden trumpet, appeared. After it was played, a terrifying sonic shock wave spread in all directions, defeating the cool officials in front, but unfortunately, before the shock wave could hit the empress, Scheherazade blocked it with magic.

puff.

But the next moment, Dion's sword pierced the body of the empress. This scene was a perfect match, and Roman of Chaldea couldn't help but scream in excitement.

"Then there is the job of being the Emperor and the Hidden One."

Shen Fei, who had watched from beginning to end, was not surprised by this result. The reason was very simple. As an empress, it was impossible for her to play the role of a concealer. After all, generally speaking, the job of an emperor would be a concealer. It is impossible to become king by assassination. If the empress is given another job, it will definitely not be that easy to become a magician or something like that.

"Your Majesty." Seeing that the empress was injured, Scheherazade immediately shouted with a worried look on his face.

"I'm fine." The empress waved her hand to Scheherazade, indicating that she didn't have to worry. Then she looked at Ritsuka and the others, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted from her body. This aura was so powerful that it made her Mashu, Ritsuka and the others couldn't help but feel shocked. The momentum they had planned to pursue the victory immediately collapsed.

"How do you think I got the throne? Someone told me that I was born with a destiny and was destined to rule the world. It's a joke. Did I get the throne by that destiny? No, it was because of me. Keep working hard and don’t give up what you get.”

The empress suddenly spoke about her past. Shen Fei agreed very much with her words. Destiny is one thing, but it doesn't mean you don't need to work hard if you have destiny. He has encountered many destiny so far. The people who returned, such as Naruto, Ichigo, and Luffy, were all destined, but at the same time they had to admit their own efforts.

Although their blood brings them strength, they cannot exert this power without their own efforts. In comparison, Harry Potter is a bit weak. His beliefs are completely incompatible with the three of Naruto. Compare,

Of course, this was also the reason why Dumbledore did not give him preferential treatment because of his intervention.

"Sure enough, they are just like those female pirates. What should we do now?"

When the empress used her aura to suppress Mashu, Ritsuka and others, the cruel officials began to split up. Soon, more cruel officials appeared in the hall and surrounded them. This situation made her hesitate. The number of enemies became larger, and they had just used up all their treasures. But they were unwilling to retreat like this.

"Mashu, Ritsuka, retreat first." Roman's voice sounded at the right time. Now it was too late.

"Okay."

"Your Majesty, something happened, a natural disaster."

However, just when Ritsuka and his group were about to leave, a cruel official hurried over. As soon as he opened his mouth, he suddenly heard a thunderous roar from one side. Then they heard a bang, and the wall on one side broke. A very tall figure rushed in, jumped, and swung a huge golden axe to chop at the empress.

Boom.

The location where the empress was directly turned into a large pit with a diameter of nearly ten meters. Looking at the pit, except for the tall figure who roared to the sky, the empress had disappeared.

"Hercules, how could it be?"

Roman's scream came from Mashu. Mashu, Ritsuka and others all knew this tall voice. It was the famous hero Hercules. However, he looked even taller at this time, and his deterrence was even more terrifying than before.

"I didn't expect to see Hercules." Fergus, who had been guarding the Master and was like an invisible man after entering the City That Never Sleeps, spoke. He was very excited at this time. After all, this was the hero of their clan.

Fergus, the young man, didn't say much along the way because he was thinking about the meaning of the pirate country of the pirate princess. For others, the pirate country had no merits, but in Fergus's view, the enjoyment that allowed all citizens to be unscrupulous was very meaningful. He had been thinking about how to achieve it like the island country.

"Your Majesty."

As the empress disappeared, the surrounding cruel officials immediately rushed towards Hercules frantically. Mashu, Ritsuka and his group no longer cared.

Roar.

Facing the siege of the cruel officials, Hercules swept the golden axe in his hand, and the dozen cruel officials in the front were immediately broken and flew out.

"Leave here quickly, it's a natural disaster, no one can be his opponent."

Just when Mashu, Lixiang and others hesitated, Scheherazade suddenly ran to their side and signaled them to leave now.

"Natural disaster, what is that?" Ah Fu immediately asked curiously.

"Now is not the time to talk about this, let's talk about it after leaving here."

"Okay."

"Achilles."

Just when Mashu, Lixiang and others just left from the gate, the wall on the other side of the Yaoguang Hall was destroyed, and a familiar figure rushed in, shouting Achilles' name, and rushed towards Hercules.

"It's the queen of Amazon, strange, why is it called Achilles." Roman's puzzled voice sounded, no matter how you look at it, it is Hercules, not Achilles.

"No way, this is too powerful."

Because the Queen of Amazon and Hercules started fighting, Mashu, Ritsuka and others did not take the opportunity to leave, but watched them fight, and then found that the Queen of Amazon and Hercules were evenly matched.
