Zongman: A journey through time starting from the Supreme

She was really afraid that if she stayed here for too long, she would eventually be contaminated by the goblins, become corrupted by them, and lose the ability to return to Avalon.

Altria had great respect for Queen Morgan. She wondered what kind of mood and determination did Her Majesty have to persist for six thousand years and maintain the existence of this island.

She thought of herself as someone who would not give up easily, but compared with Queen Morgan, it seemed that her persistence was nothing.

"Boss, bring me the best food and drinks you have here!"

Altria, who had a clear idea, sat down next to Saigo and shouted to the trembling and frightened owner of the tavern.

"Hey, your place is mine now, you country goblin, you really have no manners at all!"

Seeing Altria sitting next to Saigo in a familiar manner, Bavanshi shouted angrily.

However, Altria, who had figured it out, ignored her.

……

At the same time, in the southeastern waters of the British Isles, Chaldea's "spaceship" finally approached the British Isles.

Chapter 95: The Arrival of Chaldea

"The British Isle is ahead!"

Captain Nemo stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the edge of the island that appeared in the distance, and shouted with a serious face.

As she finished speaking, many Chaldean staff members who were chatting in the cabin hurried forward and saw the outline of the British Isles through the huge glass windows.

The British Isles are definitely not unfamiliar to magicians. The Clock Tower, one of the three major institutions of the Magic Association in London, is truly famous among magicians.

Compared to the low-key Atlas Academy and the Wandering Sea, the existence of the Clock Tower almost made magicians think it was the Magic Association itself.

But this time when they saw the British Isles again, everyone had complicated expressions.

It is now 2017 AD, but even before landing on the island, the Chaldeans know that this island has almost nothing in common with modern Britain.

"Sure enough, the British Lostbelt has become a singularity. We don't even have to travel through the storm that intercepts the outside world."

"...and from this position, I can't see the 20-year-old fantasy tree. That fantasy tree was cut down a long time ago."

Little Da Vinci leaned forward and carefully observed the outline of the British Isles from high in the sky, and said with a frown.

No matter which Lostbelt they went to, the first thing that caught the eyes of the Chaldeans was the Fantasy Tree that almost touched the sky.

It can be said that the location of the Imagination Tree designated the target range for Chaldea, but this time there was nothing on the British Isles.

"According to Chaldea's instruments, a huge amount of curse that cannot be seen but can be clearly felt is spreading along the Atlantic Ocean to all parts of the world around the British Isles."

Shion stood in front of an instrument. On the instrument was a map of the British Isles. Around the map was a dark purple outline that surrounded the island.

And these deep purple outlines are also spreading in all directions, as if to curse the entire planet.

"The results of instrument detection indicate that the source of the curse is probably in the central region of the British Isles."

"…Although we can't see the Imagination Tree, these curses have pointed us in the right direction. We just need to head towards the center of Britain!"

Shion pointed at the 3D model map of Britain. In the middle was a purple-black dot.

I don’t know if this is the limit of the instrument’s effectiveness and it cannot detect too far a distance.

Or maybe the curse there is too terrifying, and it is impossible to even infer the specific data about that center point.

"This... is just like the Fukushima nuclear power plant."

Ritsuka said subconsciously as he looked at the map of the spread of the curse in Britain.

Everyone looked at her, and Holmes nodded slightly and said, "...I also know a little about the Fukushima nuclear power plant accident in pan-human history."

"…Ritsuka, you are right. The situation in Britain right now is very similar to the Fukushima nuclear power plant."

"The entire island of Britain, from that central point, is dumping 'nuclear waste' all over the world."

"…Ordinary nuclear waste may be purified by the ocean, but the curse emanating from Britain will never be purified by the ocean."

"Fortunately, these curses are not physical things, but a mysterious manifestation. As long as the source of the curse is resolved, they will disappear."

After Holmes finished speaking, he looked around and said in a deep voice: "...No matter what you do, you must have a purpose."

“…If we don’t have a purpose, then we will be like a headless fly, spinning around in circles and accomplishing nothing.”

"As Chaldea's advisor, since you trust me, let me tell you the purpose of this operation."

"...Unlike the previous Lostbelt Raiders, our goal this time is not to cut down the Fantasy Tree, but to stop the spread of the curse and save pan-human history."

"Everyone, this is probably the last obstacle we have to face. The alien god has been severely damaged, and the initiator of the bleached earth has lost its danger."

"...According to Kirshtalia's analysis, the South American Lostbelt has become quite easy to resolve. Now our last problem is this British Island."

"The situation on the British Isles is currently unknown. We can only speculate that the former king of the Lostbelt here was 'Monster Concubine Morgan'."

"...If it were just Morgan, the difficulty here should be easier than the Greek Lostbelt, but..."

Holmes hadn't finished speaking, but his heavy expression made everyone look sad.

They all knew what the "only" behind Sherlock Holmes meant, which was that there was definitely not only Morgan on the British Isles, but also a "great being" that they had seen in the Greek Lostbelt.

Even now, just thinking back to that incredible power still makes the people of Chaldea feel heavy-hearted.

"Mr. Holmes, I have a question."

Fujimaru Ritsuka raised his hand obediently.

Under the gaze of everyone, Ritsuka said worriedly: "...What if, I mean if, what if the Excellency named 'Zarathustra' stops us from destroying the curse?"

From Chaldea's investigation and calculations, the source of the so-called 'Land of Steel' is the 'pollution' hidden in those curses.

Therefore, Chaldea believes that as long as the spread of the curse is stopped, the destruction of the planet and human history can be prevented.

"It stands to reason that He would not stop us."

"…If He wanted to stop us, He wouldn't have to send us to Britain. He could have just eliminated us all in the Greek Lostbelt."

"I believe that the 'evil god' has such ability."

"…But He didn't do that. Instead, He asked us to go to Britain. After careful consideration, I don't think He had to ask us to go to Britain to achieve anything."

"That is to say, we ourselves are not a necessary condition. It is more like a whim, just like the pleasure of gods playing with the fate of mortals."

"...There is a basis for this. It can be seen from the myths and legends of various civilizations that most gods have the evil taste to play tricks on mortals like this."

"Based on all the existing evidence, I have come to the conclusion that Zarathustra will not take the initiative to stop us, but He will definitely create a lot of trouble for us."

"...Of course, the above is just my reasoning as a detective, and also my thinking about 'human nature'. However, 'divinity' is not within the scope of my thinking and reasoning, because I don't understand 'divinity'."

At this point, Holmes paused again, and he said the last chilling words in a very calm tone: "...But if that being really stops us, we need to be its enemy."

"...Then please risk your life and fight with all you have. Even if you know it will be fruitless, you must let the gods see the unyielding resistance of mankind."

"This may also be mankind's last resistance to fate."

There was silence in the hall.

Holmes' words were quite demoralizing, but everyone knew that what he said was not wrong.

At this point, there was no need for them to deceive themselves anymore. They had to admit that that great existence was not something they could contend with. There was absolutely no hope!

……

"The Chaldean group has finally arrived."

"... Before the end of the world comes, let's have a thorough excitement. I'm afraid both this planet and the human race will have to fight to the death."

“It’s going to be a gorgeous show!”

Saigo stood at a window and looked at the coastline. Before his goal was about to be achieved, he hoped for a perfect and grand ending.

Chapter 96: The organization has appointed you as King Arthur!

The Chaldean airship approached the coast of Britain.

"Fortunately, the British Isles here don't seem to have pan-human history, and there are patrols along the coast."

"…Of course, even if it's pan-human history, I don't think Britain will be able to detect our arrival."

"This is the confidence that I, the omnipotent one, have in Chaldea!"

Compared to the adult form of Leonardo da Vinci, the child form of Leonardo da Vinci even became much more lively and cheerful.

When the Chaldean ship finally landed on the British Island, she cheered.

"Chaldea has logged in and is now on radio silence."

"…One is to prevent the 'Singularity Britain' from having special means to detect the existence of Chaldea, and the other is to save energy."

Captain Nemo controlled the entire ship and spoke to the Chaldean soldiers who were about to set out.

"I have some bad news for you."

At this time, Shion, the special consultant, also spoke. She looked solemn, staring at the machine in front of her, and said slowly: "...According to calculations, you only have two months to resolve the incident."

"...In two months, all curses will completely infect this planet, and the pollution inside will completely destroy the planet. That means the 'Land of Steel' will arrive!"

"Finally, I remind you all once again, if Chaldea is unable to prevent the spread of the curse and the arrival of the Land of Steel, please collect as much information as possible about the Land of Steel."

"…This is extremely important to humans in other parallel worlds. Please help!"

The alternate dean from Atlas Academy said solemnly.

"Ms. Shion, it's unlucky to think about failure before things even begin."

When Fujimaru Ritsuka heard what Shion said, he complained helplessly.

Shion shook her head at her: "…This is not a question of luck. The alchemists of Atlas Academy don't care about luck or bad luck."

"...This is just the best choice I have come up with after careful consideration. Of course, if possible, I hope you can succeed~"! "

She gave a very girlish smile and encouraged Ritsuka and the others.

On the other side, the hidden ones were also having their final discussions.

"First of all, I no longer have a heroic spirit, but my injuries have not healed yet, so I cannot go to the British Isles with you."

Kadoc, who was once a member of Group A and one of the Hidden Ones, said to Kirshtalia and others who were preparing to set off.

Kirshtalia, the leader of Group A, did not say anything. Instead, she comforted him, "...I will not let you go to the battlefield, Kadoc. I am no longer qualified to do so."

"...Pepe, you don't have to follow us. Without the Heroic Spirit, you are in much more danger."

Peperoncino laughed exaggeratedly at this time: "...Don't persuade me, Captain! There are some things I have to do!"

"…A bad guy like me may not ask for so-called redemption, but I won't be so cowardly as to not dare to fight!"

Kadoc grumbled in dissatisfaction: "...Hey, why do I feel like you are targeting me?"

"Hahaha! Little Kadoc, I'm not talking about you, I'm only talking about myself!"

Pepeloncino laughed loudly, his hands on his hips.

Kirshtalia looked at Peperoncino deeply, and he sighed: "...Okay, then it's up to you."

"Humph, I didn't expect that I would have to fight with these guys. It really makes me feel unhappy."

Katniss crossed her arms over her chest, looked at the people in Chaldea, and expressed her dissatisfaction with a sound of clicking her tongue.

"Thank you for your trouble, Katniss! The contract between us should have ended, but you are still willing to fight for me. I am deeply grateful for that!"

Even in front of her own Servant, Kirshtalia was polite and sincere without any false apology.

"This is my own wish. You don't have to thank me. And put away your attitude. I don't need this!"

If we talk about Katniss at the beginning, she was shocked by Kirshtalia's plan and was willing to help him.

So now Katniss has truly developed a bond with this magician, and is helping him more like a friend.

Seeing Katniss say this, Kirshtalia smiled and said nothing more.

On the other side, Holmes and young Leonardo da Vinci were also discussing the final question.

"No, no, you can't leave together. Chaldea is the headquarters, the place where we receive and analyze everyone's intelligence!"

"…If Chaldea falls, then everything will be over!"

When Chaldea's director Goldruff heard that Da Vinci and Holmes were both preparing to land on the British Isles together as heroic spirits, he hurriedly shook his head.

Although he was indeed afraid of death, what the director said was also correct. Chaldea should eventually leave behind a heroic spirit for protection.
