People are crumbling, they're vile strangers

"?...Okay, it looks like its transformation collar is also broken, so it doesn't pose any threat." Snow shrugged, taking the opportunity to rua on Stan's belly.

"Hmm~ rua is quite comfortable..."

"Meow~" (Oh, fickle woman)

"Speaking of which, is it a male or a female? Do you want to break something..." Snow scratched his head and looked at Stan, who was about to show off his cuteness to the end.

"You don't have to worry about this, Lord Snow and Lord Bianca, just leave it to Rita." The maid smiled and took out the scythe, ready to hit the kitten somewhere.

"Meow!" (Little girl, speak up if you have something to say!)

Chapter 56 The Sword in the Stone

"Miss Rita? It's me, Catherine Curator of the British Museum"

"You must be worrying about the following clues right now? Could you allow me to assist you this time..."

In the museum's office, a woman with burgundy hair smiled confidently into the phone.

And in the Mansion of Destiny, Snow and Rita also smiled.

"The little mice hiding in the dark can't sit still..."

"Rita, let's prepare a surprise for them." Si Nuo sat on the chair, propped his chin with his left hand, and showed a playful smile

"Yes."

-------------------------------------

In the director's room of the British Museum on the second day, the two sat on the sofa, listening to the indignant speech of the museum director in front of them.

"That's right, Miss Rita, and Lord Omega... Regarding the prisoner who destroyed the museum yesterday, as the guardian of England's history, I absolutely cannot forgive him!"

Catherine's face was full of anger, as if her heart ached for the destroyed collection yesterday.

"And through this matter, I also understand the importance of your mission..."

"—So, please let me help you with my strength!"

She looked at Rita at the side with fiery eyes, expecting her reply.

"Promise her..." Snow, who was sitting on the side and read the legend of King Arthur with great interest, replied without raising his head.

"I understand, my lord—thank you for your kindness, Curator Catherine. Although the content of our mission is confidential, I just want to ask you about the legend of King Arthur." Rita nodded to Catherine and threw out her request.

"Okay, as long as I know what I know, I will tell you the truth..." The curator took a sip of black tea to moisten his throat and began her narration.

"The legend of King Arthur must have been thoroughly investigated by Miss Rita, and the story of that king has also been interpreted differently in various literary works."

"This young king became the most prestigious king in British history with his invincible attitude, but his life ended in tragedy, and there is no evidence for the legend left behind..."

"So, Miss Rita, have you ever thought that the so-called legend of King Arthur may not really have happened." Putting down the teacup, Catherine looked at Rita, waiting for her opinion.

"The legend is a story fabricated by later generations, but it must have its basis in reality... just like the burning city of Sodom in ancient mythology."

"After all, there is a basis for reference... It's just different from whether people find it or not."

The white-haired girl who looked down at the book took Catherine's words.

"Hmm...you're right...then, my lord Omega, have you heard or known the story of Avalon?" Catherine turned her gaze to Snow who was aside.

"The legendary island of elves does not exist in the utopia of this world...the final resting place of King Arthur..."

"That's right, but this is also one of the rumors of later generations. In fact, King Arthur did not find this place, because as you said——Avalon does not exist in this world."

"It's located on the other side of time and space..."

"The other side of time and space..." The corner of the blond Valkyrie's mouth evoked a smile, but Catherine, who was addicted to telling the story, didn't notice her inexplicable smile.

"Yes, on the other side of time and space, in order to find Avalon, Arthur and Merlin embarked on a journey together, and Merlin also gave Arthur a holy sword."

"——It is said that this holy sword originally came from Avalon, and it can be used to cut through space and connect the road of another time and space, and this is the only way to Avalon."

"But even so, King Arthur has spent his entire life, but still hasn't found the legendary fairyland..."

"Only the miracles created by Merlin have become the shining points in the myth..."

"So...you think Avalon is real...?" Rita looked at Catherine who closed the book.

"Not necessarily, but in my research, this great magician named Merlin is very likely to exist."

"It was he who led King Arthur on the road to becoming a king. It was he who opened the source of the legend of King Arthur. It was also because of him that the king had a story passed down to future generations."

"Merlin...it seems necessary to investigate." Snow and Rita nodded seriously.

"Then it's time for me to specialize in the field." Catherine suddenly ignited in front of her. She turned around and took out a document more than one meter high from behind her desk, and threw it heavily on the table.

"Miss Rita, Your Excellency Omega, this is the result of my research over the years, please take a look!"

"...Interesting" Looking at the hill-like materials in front of him, Snow took out one of them casually, and used it as a way to pass the time.

.....The whole morning is fleeting, and it's time to say goodbye.

"Today is really rewarding." Rita politely thanked Catherine, while Snow left the supervisor's room early, and was strolling among several workers who were cleaning up the ruins.

"Have you read the information on this piece of soul, old man?" The white-haired Valkyrie held a silver lump with her fingertips and looked at it in front of her eyes.

"It stores part of the information of the second God's Key. This God's Key is made of the core of the Herrscher of the Sky as we guessed before. Its actual function is not yet clear, but it is mentioned that it can Open the door to space and connect to another dimension..."

A man's voice rang through the communication channel

"Previous civilizations tried to use it to explore the sea of ​​quantum...but the specific information has been lost..."

"The legend of Avalon should refer to the Quantum Sea, and King Arthur's Holy Sword is probably a description of the key to the sky..."

"Perhaps... we can change our thinking, Dad"

"The legend left by King Arthur has no textual research..... During the 500 years when the Mandate of Heaven ruled England, I checked a large number of records of the Mandate of Heaven archaeological team, and they all returned without success in the end—"

"And now that it is confirmed that the Second God's Key is a device made of the core of the Herrscher of the Sky... can we boldly guess... The Second God's Key is not in the real world, but in the In a folded space..."

"And the organization named World Snake began to obstruct our operation after we arrived in London... Maybe this folding space is hidden in London..."

"A good idea...I will send special mechs to conduct a comprehensive scan of the city of London to verify this guess, but my daughter..."

"——what are you going to do with those poisonous snakes that are still watching us in the dark?"

"Since they have worked so hard to set up a gorgeous trap for us, don't step on it yourself-my conscience can't bear it."

Snow had a bright smile on his face, like a guest invited to a banquet

"Then I wish you a pleasant journey, my child"

Chapter 57 What floor are you on this wave.jpg

"Thank you again for your assistance, Miss Catherine, Destiny will give you the reward you deserve." Rita greeted Catherine who came again.

"You are too kind, it is my honor!" The curator of the museum showed a flattered expression.

After a short exchange of pleasantries, the two quickly sat down. In the living room, Snow was already flipping through the materials boredly, waiting for their arrival.

"Then, without further ado, let's start now." Putting the computer and materials on the table, Catherine quickly entered the working state.

"Miss Catherine, what do you think about the whereabouts of the sword in the stone?"

Rita filled the cup with black tea, put it beside Catherine and Snow, and raised her question.

"Ah, thank you... What do you think... In today's England, there are too many places related to the legend of King Arthur"

After taking a sip of the black tea, Catherine continued her explanation.

"Yentagel Castle, the birthplace of King Arthur, and Snowdonia Peak, where Arthur became famous after beheading giants"

"And Glastonbury, which is now considered the most likely location of [Avalon]..."

"These places are all famous for the legend of King Arthur."

Catherine pulled out a few photos along with the documents and placed them in front of them.

"Miss Catherine, what suggestions do you have for these places? It would be a waste of time to search for them one by one." Snow looked at the photo in front of him and seemed to be in distress.

"Well... If what you are looking for is King Arthur's holy sword, I think this place is the most likely..."

Catherine pointed to the photo of Glastonbury on the desktop, and explained to the two people around her.

"The Glastonbury Tor near Glastonbury, the fabled gateway to the goblin kingdom of Avalon."

"And the holy sword that Merlin gave Arthur was also forged by goblins, so Glastonburg is also considered the closest place to Avalon."

"That could be our first stop."

"What do you two think?" Putting down the book, Catherine looked at the two.

"Let's do as the curator told you...we're leaving now..." The corner of Snow's mouth curled up into a smile.

-------------------------------------

On the high slope covered by green grass, the three of them looked at the surrounding scenery. The sun was shining on the green field, and the dew that had not yet evaporated glistened in the sunlight.

The St. Michael's Tower in the distance still stands after thousands of years of wind and rain, and the wear and tear left by the wind and sand will be clearly visible under the light.

"The scenery is pretty good... Yashenji Iboki, start scanning the geological structure here."

Following the order of the blond girl, a white floating mech lifted its optical invisibility, and began to scan the Glastonbury ledge where they were with a humming sound.

"Lord Omega. What is this thing?!"

Catherine, who had never seen the God of Destiny, looked at the blond girl who gave the order with some panic.

"It's just the Mecha of Destiny... There is no need for Miss Catherine to panic."

"Ah... good..." The woman wiped the cold sweat off her head.

drip-

The mech's notification sounded, and it seemed that it had found a hidden place hidden underground.

"...Miss Catherine, your suggestion is correct—there is a secret passage leading underground under the ledge, and there seems to be a larger space inside."

Snow looked at the feedback from the Yashen machine on the panel and nodded to the curator.

"It's a blessing for me to be able to help the two of you."

"So... Rita, let's dig it up."
