People are forbidden by magic, just become mercenaries

"After the 'Thirteen Knights' find themselves unable to deal with it, they will definitely not let it go with their character of 'clergy and nobles'."

[And the only possibility to turn defeat into victory after losing a large number of members is the "Grigor Chant Team". 】

"That's it. On the premise of clarifying the opponent's next move, it is not difficult to deliberately induce them to launch a specific attack."

[With your strength, turning the attack to a specific direction to destroy a specific target is also a simple matter. 】

All of this is within the calculations of the two "golden" magicians.

Academy City, which allowed Oreos to appear, accepted the request of the Roman Orthodox Church to let them handle it, and rejected the application for cooperation from the British Puritan Church.

After that, let Sigurd contact Oreos, and use the activation of the "Grigo Chant" as a premise to induce the members of the "Thirteen Knights" to jump up and down in the "Sanzawa School" like idiots.

In the end, the attack was deliberately directed to destroy the "Altair One" in order to convey to the high-level the information that the "Designer of the Dendrogram" was destroyed.

As for the purpose...

[There is no problem with the plan for the first place, right? 】

"'Because I was touched by the girl crying and begging for mercy, resulting in a deviation of nearly a hundred people in the experiment', as long as this is the reason, the plan can be declared bankrupt if the 'tree diagram designer' is lost."

[Afterwards, because the Roman Orthodox Church obtained special permission from France and other Roman Orthodox countries, those clones were also able to be smoothly dispersed to the periphery of the Roman Orthodox Church.To be honest, the plan was far smoother than I calculated. 】

"At the same time, in order to show goodwill to Academy City, magical countries such as Britain and Russia will not have any objection to the co-operative agencies under their own countries to accommodate the 'clones' of Academy City. They may even think that this is an opportunity to split Academy City and Great opportunity for Roman Orthodox relations."

[Weaken the power of the Roman Orthodox Church.This has strengthened the hostile state of affairs between the three major churches, and has effectively weakened the dangers of Academy City on the "magic side".Plus......】

"In addition, the 'tree diagram designer' is not on the 'Altair [-]' but on the 'Vega [-]'. This time, Academy City is basically taking a 'quasi' that should have been updated a long time ago." The scrapped weather satellites were exchanged for the funds to build two and countless preferential policies."

It was completely calculated. Those scientific idiots of the Roman Orthodox Church had no idea that they let the two "golden" on the "science side" calculate clearly.

This is not just a situation of losing his wife and losing his army. I am afraid that the Roman Orthodox Church will never realize that they just want to crusade against a "judgmentist" and let Academy City lose all their underwear. Bar......

Seeing Sigurd smiling like an old witch stirring potion, Othinus, who had eaten up the popcorn, leaned back on Sigurd's back.

Stretch your waist to relieve your stiff back from playing games for a long time.

"You guys are really 'insidious'. I'm afraid the Roman Orthodox Church thinks that they deserve what they deserve in this matter?"

"I never thought that I could be called 'decent'. It would be better to say that this matter was only because the Roman Orthodox taught its upper class to 'suffer to save face'."

"You seem to be particularly unhappy with such reasons? But is this okay? You seem to be a 'heroic and honest mercenary' image on the magic side, right?"

"The so-called hero is the guy who is unwavering, has no other thoughts. And when necessary, chooses what is good for the majority. And to make Roman Orthodox bad, it's basically 'the consensus'."

Stretching, he rolled over from Sigurd's back, feeling the contact between his back and the soft floor. Othinus also stretched his slender waist like a cat.

"Nonsense~ But I don't think there's anything wrong with it. Why don't we say, 'the person who caused the disaster (Borvik)'?"

"At most, they are each other, right?"

"As my equal godhead to the Nordic 'God of War', you're not bad, 'partner (aibo)'~"

Chapter 350: Discussion on "Games"

The administrative organs of Academy City are all concentrated in the solemn first school district.

Although ordinary students seldom go there, it is because Sigurd came here to deal with some matters accepted as a researcher on the "science side".

So there was nothing to do overall, and Othinus, who was tired of playing games, went here to play with him to the end.

And some people feel troublesome just looking at it, just keep nodding and bowing and say "If Sigurd-kun thinks so, then it must be right", "If it is Sigurd-kun's researcher, I am looking forward to it What about the final result" and "Just ask what you want, I'm sure Sigurd-kun will give you a perfect answer".

With a big belly, he climbed to the top of Academy City, but he continued to "nod and bow" habitually.

It's not bad, after all, it's a way of life, but it's uncomfortable for Sigurd.

After all, he's just a magician after all, and he doesn't have the weird energy of "Kihara" at all.

"Game magazine?"

"This is a library, why don't you pay attention to etiquette? Everyone's eyes are here?"

Sigurd looked at the one-eyed witch in a three-point bikini-like leather jacket. She really didn't realize the real reason for her eyes to gather here...

"Are you very interested in these games? If you want to watch them, don't you just use a computer to watch the strategy website?"

"It's not the same, it's not the same. Although you can get the latest information as soon as you log on to the official website of the editorial department, but because too much emphasis is placed on speed, the reports on it are often half-assed. Paper media take time to release and vending, so the information in there is usually a little tidier.”

Looking at the game magazine waving in Othinus' hand, Sigurd didn't quite understand why this kind of thing was included in the library of Academy City.

But judging from the date above, it seems that it was also read a year ago. It seems that witches who are addicted to "new games" are rarely interested in "old games"?

"So what? The Kamisama of 'All-knowing and All-powerful'? Do you need this kind of thing if you just cleared the game on the first day with one hand?"

"If I were omniscient and omnipotent, I would still be in such a bad situation. Besides, the best way to prove that gods are not omniscient, isn't it you, the 'exceptional' contestant?"

Othinus seemed to have thought of something.

Flipping through the magazine in his hand quickly, he seemed to be looking for something.

Seeing Othinus with a serious face, Sigurd also pulled out a chair beside him and sat down.

"Speaking of which, I see that there seem to be more reports about 'repeated customs clearance' in the reports of previous years. It seems that more and more players will start to repeatedly play games that they have already cleared?"

"Isn't this normal? Didn't speedrunners appear decades ago?"

"However, in a certain period of time, for a game where the big boss behind the scenes has been hidden until very late and will immediately push the event to a full-scale war, will the probability of players playing repeatedly be greater?"

"Probably because of 'sense of accomplishment' or 'making up for regrets'?"

"Why don't I feel any 'sense of accomplishment'?"

The one-eyed witch herself is also a member of "repeated play" in a sense, but the "game" played by Othinus is too real.

"For example, you know from the beginning that the target of the final boss is a certain girl, then you save or take that girl away in advance. If the purpose of a certain final boss is to destroy a certain weapon to make yourself The world is invincible, then you should take that weapon away in advance. Instead of 'so that's the reason, that guy's purpose is this' and then rush over to stop it."

"What's the difference? Isn't it more rewarding to successfully stop an enemy?"

"Knowing everything in advance gives more time and opportunity to prepare. This avoids unnecessary sacrifices and achieves a perfect 'hapyending'."

Although Othinus himself didn't quite understand this feeling, he understood the general reason.

"That's how it is, so after that game with a formulaic single process that doesn't have enough freedom, except for some players who like speedrunning, few people will play it repeatedly. Probably because they know what tragedy will happen later, but Powerless to stop, right? I kind of feel the same way about this?"

"The other thing is that he clearly knows what the final boss wants to do, but because he cannot obtain enough props and values ​​​​in a short period of time, even if the degree of freedom is sufficient, some tragedies cannot be avoided, which makes people feel angry."

Othinus nodded, as a "god", she knew how she felt.

Obviously I can do many things, but some things just feel powerless.

"That's why there are things like 'golden fingers', right? Get things in advance that are absolutely unobtainable, and forcibly kill what should be 'story killing'. But although it's cool in theory, this way Will it lead to confusion in the subsequent plot?"

After closing the strategy book in his hand, Othinus picked up the milk tea in his hand and continued.

"You see, for example, at a certain point in time, a character will die, and the subsequent plot needs to be unfolded with her death. But now you use the 'Gold Finger' to change this fact, does it mean that the subsequent plot will be Where is the confusion?"

"Often in this case, the game itself will selectively blind and default that the character is dead, and then let the plot continue forcibly. After all, most games are not intelligent enough to judge such things, or the development There is no need to prepare such a backhand, right?"

Leaning on the seat, Sigurd casually took out a book from the pile of books beside Othinus and flipped through it casually.

"Also, if it's not a particularly important character in the protagonist group, whether a passer-by NPC is dead or not will actually only make that short plot seem inexplicable, and it will generally have no effect on the main storyline."

"And what if the main character 'died'?"

Glancing at Othinus, Sigurd continued to flip through the book in his hand indifferently.

"Calling Sang and scolding Huai?"

"Let's talk about the matter."

Sighing, Sigurd threw the book in his hand back on the table.

Although the college student working in the library saw the lack of respect for books here and wanted to stop her, but when she saw the badge of "Special Researcher" on Sigurd's chest, she hesitated in the distance. Dare to step forward.

"It doesn't matter, as long as there are other people who can solve the problem. It doesn't have to follow the original process. For example, if the main character is weak and takes a lot of time to solve, if there are other people who can do it better and faster, there will be no problem." question."

"That's right. After all, this world is more free and unruly than the so-called 'open world'. Whether it's novels, comics, movies or games, you still have to pay more or less attention to the so-called 'logical relationship'. Being called 'outrageous'."

"That's why the real world is often more outrageous than the virtual world."

"indeed."

Chapter 360: Mai Ye Shenli who invaded the "ceremony field"?

Obviously, in terms of nature, it should be the floor of the "Magic Fortress", but at this time, a considerable amount of "Darkness of Science" has gathered.

Although it cannot be said to be completely accurate, it seems that there is no more accurate statement for a while.

"So, why on earth are you here?"

"What, what? Just press the elevator and it will come up. Otherwise? No need for identity verification?"

Seeing Mugino Shirley carelessly occupying the sofa in the living room, Sigurd didn't realize what was going on for a while.

In the living room at this time, Mai Ye Shenli was lying on his side and watching TV.

And Kinuhata's favorite seems to be to go to the study where a large number of spirit costumes are stored, while the other two girls that Sigurd has never seen are searching for snacks in the kitchen.

Silvia is not here, because today seems to be another day to go to the Xuanran Home Economics Women's Academy for special lectures.

On the other hand, Othinus said that he was interested in Oreos' "Golden Dyeing Technique", so he went to Sanze School for "field investigation".

I just hope this "Nordic God" doesn't blow up the building.

By the way, because Oreos is now dead by default on the "magic side", no one cares about the "Science side" or the "magic side" of "Sanzawa School".

Therefore, now that the external barrier has been opened, Oreos will not attract anyone's attention as long as he stays inside the "Sanze School".

As for Index, she seems to have become good friends with Himekami Ayusa.

It's summer vacation, so Kirigaoka Women's Academy isn't in session yet, so Index, who was bored at home, went to "Misawa Juku" to play with Himegami Ayusa and Oreos with her cat in her arms.

Sigurd, who had just escaped from the research institute and the torment of Kihara's solution, originally thought that he would be able to be clean for a while.

As a result, I saw this scene as soon as I entered the door.

Sigurd rubbed his temples. The enchantment he set up was able to completely "overhead" the magician who entered the "ceremony field", that is to say, all the magic formulas, theories and spiritual equipment that relied on the theory of "idol worship" will fail.

Moreover, because the "ceremony field" itself extracted the meaning of "Avalon" and deliberately made the meaning of "not belonging to the world", so generally no one will deliberately enter this level.

But Sigurd missed one point.

That is the "ordinary person" like Mugino Shenli who came here specially.
