Powerful players want to be passers-by

"Yeah. Because it's too formal, I suddenly became a little... nervous." Li Xiang nodded, with a little embarrassing blush on her face.

"That's it... Then before the actual operation, let me explain to you how the spirit transfer works. After listening to the principle, you will feel at ease. After all, people's fear comes from the unknown, and eliminating The best way to deal with fear is to face it." Da Vinci looked at Olga Marie and Lu Yao.

Olga Marie snorted, "Isn't this very good? Let the ignorant country bumpkins understand, my Chaldea is technically beyond this era."

After obtaining permission, Da Vinci began to explain: "The so-called spiritual transfer can be generally regarded as an observation system similar to the 'time machine'. You should have experienced this, right? So let's talk about it now." Let’s talk about how to go back to the past.”

After entering the frame, the frame will scan the life body inside, so as to obtain the data that this life body is composed of, and then define it.

After that, the magic will be activated to form a relatively independent "space" inside the frame.Next, the frame will become a quantum cloud state that cannot be observed and is in the superposition of life and death similar to "Schrödinger's cat".

In principle, it is actually somewhat similar to the Seat of Heroes.

"Hey...wouldn't this be dangerous?"

"This is just the beginning."

"what?"

"This is the first project, the anti-summoning system, Lixiang." Lu Yao explained with a smile, "The real danger is the second project-"Spirit Transformation"."

"That is……?"

"During the process of spiritual transformation, your body will be decomposed." Da Vinci said, "At the same time, we also need to calculate the historical and causal changes caused by the disappearance of your person to make corrections. In a word, it is to make the world misunderstand and prove that you still exist. For this, we need huge electricity and magic power to drive all the calculation devices in Chaldea."

Therefore, the spiritual transfer system is not as convenient as Doraemon's time machine. You can go to various eras by getting into the drawer and dangling.

Well, this may be related to some differences in the laws of the two universes.

After all, there is correction power in this world.

Then, the last stage.

After listening to Da Vinci's introduction to the spirit particle transfer system, seven people, Lu Yao, Olga Marie, Ophelia, Lixiang, Matthew, Reinis and Kua Chiko, boarded the frame.

As for Sigurd and Altria Alter, they don't need it. The servants themselves can be considered as spiritual sons, and they can directly perform spiritual transformations without the help of a frame.

"The anti-summoning system is activated, and the first project is executed. 』

『Spirit transformation begins, and the second project is carried out. 』

"The third project is about to start, Leonardo, what's going on with you?!"

"Calm down, Romani. Everything is under control." Da Vinci pushed his glasses, "My wisdom and my omnipotence will override everything."

The third project.

That is based on the data of Chaldeas, a copy of the soul of the earth, to confirm the location of the transfer of the spirit son.

Project the people inside the frame into the distant past.

『The whole project is completed (Order), the transformation of spiritual particles is started, and the actual verification is started, Grand Order. 』

……

Kingdom of France, Orleans.

Located in the Cathedral of Sainte-Croix in Orleans.

This cathedral was built around the 10th century and has a history of hundreds of years.

At the beginning of the twelfth century, Philip I also coronated Louis VI here, making him Grand Duke of Orleans.On the evening of May 1429, 5, Joan of Arc also celebrated mass in this church.

Standing at the altar, holding the black dragon flag, the girl was thinking about something.

It was a rather young girl with short platinum hair and wearing black armor.

The girl's name was Jeanne Darc.

If you change to a more familiar title, it would be Joan of Arc.

French national hero, Catholic saint.In the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France, he claimed to have been inspired by the Lord, and led the French army to fight against the British invaders, thus winning repeatedly.

Two years after his debut, he created a miracle, appearing like a comet, and disappearing like a comet.

"Holy Maiden."

"Jill."

Someone was calling her name, Joan looked.

It was a man.

The slender body is wearing a large robe, and the clothes are decorated with a lot of luxurious precious metal jewelry.

The face looks smooth and youthful, but the eyeballs are about to protrude, giving people a grotesque and distorted feeling like Munch's paintings.

The man called Jill is also the famous blue beard in the legend.

Gilles de Re.

A person who once followed Joan of Arc to participate in the war against aggression and was hailed as a hero, but because of Joan's death, he fell into obsession with black magic and finally committed an unforgivable crime.

"are you ready?"

"Yes." Jill bowed slightly, "The summoning ceremony is ready, Holy Maiden, you can do it."

Below the altar is the auditorium for believers to worship.

But the chairs that were neatly placed were all roughly piled aside, making the space as spacious as possible.

And in the center of the aisle, there is a summoning array surrounded by four retreating arrays and a summoning array painted by blood.

After a pause, Jill continued: "Also, Holy Maiden. The sinner who betrayed you is also brought."

Joan looked down.

"You, who are you guys?!" A terrified voice sounded, "What do you want to do to me?"

The one who made the sound was a cardinal lying on the ground in some embarrassment, his old face full of horror.He was controlled by Jill, unable to escape or resist.

"Long time no see, Bishop Pierre Cauchon—well, it may be strange to say that."

"I, am I dreaming? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! You should have been burned to death three days ago... Why did you still appear here, Joan of Arc!! Ugh—"

Yes, Joan of Arc should have been burned to death on May 5.

Now it is June 6, why is she still here? !

Before he finished speaking, he found a black spear piercing through his abdomen.

"That's not okay, my lord bishop. You've already begun to escape from reality, huh?" Joan of Arc walked towards the cardinal slowly, with an evil smile on her face, "It's right in front of you, three days ago I, who was burned to death by you—Jeanne, crawled out of hell."

Joan's hand caressed Pierre's face.

The delicate and beautiful face moved closer to him.

But Pierre's hands and feet were cold at this moment, his mind was already occupied by fear, and he didn't have any charming thoughts in his heart.

"Please, please forgive me, I can do anything, please forgive me—"

More pitch-black spears pierced his body.Then, the fireworks of revenge also burned up.The flames were not in a hurry to completely devour it in one breath, and burned carefully based on the idea of ​​torment.

Letting Pierre go like throwing away trash, Joan said condescendingly: "How ridiculous, my lord bishop. Three days ago you sent me to the stake in the name of heresy, as the shepherd of the Lord. Are you so frivolous in your faith? Begging for mercy from a heretic like me?"

His body was collapsing and shattering, and while the flames were burning his body, it was also burning his soul.

"Sad... so sad! So sad that I want to laugh out loud." Jeanne sneered, "Think about it, my lord bishop, how did you kill me?"

If, I am burned by the holy flame.

So at this moment, you are being swallowed up by the flames of hell.

There is no hope of begging for mercy.Feeling that his life was about to be dissipated in the flames, Pierre cursed: "You witch... Joan of Arc——"

"Heh, heh heh...hahahaha..." Laughed presumptuously, "Did you hear that? Jill. I am a witch, ah, a witch. Then a witch should do what a witch should do. My revenge has not yet come It's over, the grand banquet has just begun!"

"That's right, my holy maiden!" Jill echoed, "Everyone on this land, in the land of France, is guilty."

Standing in front of the summoning array, a huge amount of magic power spread out, and Joan of Arc recited the summoning spell:

"Your bodies are at my command, and my fate rests with your sword. To the call of the Holy Grail, if you will do so, and to my call. I swear here. Man, I am the one who spreads all the evil in the world. Makes your eyes cloudy and your heart violent. The prisoner who is imprisoned by the threshold of madness. I am the one who holds the chains. You are the seven heavens haunted by the three spirits of words, restrain yourself Come from the wheel of the scales, guardian of the scales——!"

Seven figures appeared at the formation.

That is, the sword master of the lily, the maddened Saber; the speedy huntress, the maddened Archer; the prince who protects the country, the maddened Lancer; the blood countess, the maddened Assassin; the saint who tamed the dragon, Rider who has gone berserk; a knight in pitch-black armor, Berserker who has lost his mind without going berserk.

Hey, isn't it seven?Why only six were named.

Although adding Jill made up seven job agencies, there was indeed one more person.

"You are finally here, my compatriots. I am, your master—Jeanne. I have only one order, and that is to clean up this country and this mistake called France. No need to hold back, whether you are The noble saint and the God of War who protect the country have already been polluted by madness, so there is no need to restrain, just wantonly sweep and destroy. No matter men, women, old or young, whether they are pagans or believers, kill them all without discrimination. .Human beings have no value in existence, so all disappear...huh?"

Suddenly, Joan of Arc, who was still talking about her revenge plan, seemed to have discovered something, her voice gradually quieted down, and she looked at the only person who sat firmly on the chair after appearing. .

The eyes of the two people met, and they were speechless for a while.

After a moment of silence, the other party said, "Hi, I'm Luyao, the berserk Master from Chaldea. I was planning to go to the Roman Empire in AD 60 to repair the singularity. It seems that the teleportation is wrong. Look Get to know each other, since we're all about to execute grand plans?"

……

When Ophelia opened her eyes, she saw a lush forest.

"Great, Lixiang, Mash. The transformation of the spirit son was successful..."

Overjoyed, Ophelia turned her head away and found that there was no one else except her servant Sigurd.

For a moment, Ophelia froze in place.

"This, this is what happened?"

The green light in the eyes of Sigurd's mask on the side flickered, but he remained silent in the end.Regarding Ophelia's predicament, he temporarily chose to stand on the sidelines.

beep!

Just as Ophelia was thinking about what happened, the communication device on her wrist lit up.

"Great, we can get in touch! 』

"doctor?"

Similar to virtual projection, it is a communication system built using multiple magics, and projection can be performed when the venue is suitable.

Ophelia knew that very well.

So not surprised at all.

『Ophelia, there is an error in the transfer of spirit particles. 』Romani on the screen seemed a little cold and sweating.

"mistake?"

"right. 』

"So where am I now?"

"It was France in 1431 AD, probably Dorémy of Lorraine, that's right. After a pause, Romani said seriously, "It's just that it's not Li Xiang who arrived at this singularity with you, but Lu Jun. 』

"Mr. Lu Yao? But, I don't see Mr. Lu Yao here."

"Ah, this is the most troublesome point. ’ Scratching his own hair, ‘Lixiang, Mash, and Director Olga have all reached the second singularity, and they are all together without being separated.But Mr. Lu got separated from you, and... very likely, he also got separated from Miss Mustard. 』

Ophelia's eyes widened, "In other words, Mr. Lu Yao, does it mean that there are no followers by his side?"

"yes.And now there is no way to contact Mr. Lu. 』

"This is impossible, we have to find Mr. Lu Yao quickly—!" Ophelia became anxious.

『No, Mr. Lu himself is an extremely good magician, as long as he is not unlucky enough to parachute into the enemy headquarters, there will always be a way. "Romani said, "It has been confirmed that there is nothing wrong with Lixiang. All in all, Ophelia, you can start the initial exploration first.We will step up our efforts to contact Mr. Shanglu, and will give you news as soon as we have any news. 』

"...Okay." Ophelia frowned, looking completely uneasy.But she didn't panic either. After calming down quickly, she began to calmly deal with the current situation, "Anyway, I'll get out of this forest first and look for Dong Remy's settlement."

"...Ophelia, look up first. 』

Although Ophelia didn't understand why Romani said that, she followed Romani's words and looked towards the sky.

"Is that... the aperture?"

"Is there really?I also saw such a circle of light in Rome... This should be some kind of magic performed in satellite orbit, and it probably has something to do with the mastermind behind the scenes. ’ said Romani, ‘but, right now, that aperture doesn’t really need to be bothered.There are currently two tasks that need to be done most. One, try to find Mr. Lu and meet him.Second, collect as much information as possible, figure out what happened in this era, and then think about it. 』

"Yes, Doctor Roman."

pS: In fact, the real heroine of the fgo volume is Ophelia (forced truth).

21. Just starting and direct battle
