Lost Narrative Poetry

The other side.

After experiencing the attack of seven levels of spiritual base shadows and encountering the torture of seven terrifyingly powerful shadow servants, Chaldea's group was basically all left with health, and no one was without success. .

Even the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows, Miss Scathach, was more or less injured, but there was nothing that could be done about it. As the strongest person in the team, she naturally endured the most pressure. When facing a top-notch Berserker like Hercules, he could only step forward and hold him back.

But thanks to her bearing the greatest pressure, the others were not attrited, and were only injured at most.

After this difficult push, everyone finally reunited with Fujimaru Ritsuka, mainly because of the doctor's communication, which was constantly relayed on both sides to convey information. Although the interference is serious and makes communication troublesome, it is better than nothing.

"Ritsuka! You are indeed here, are you okay?"

After breaking open the door sealed by the magic barrier, Da Vinci finally met Chaldea's last hope. She grabbed Fujimaru Ritsuka's shoulders, looked at the girl up and down, and then let out a long breath. He took a breath and seemed to feel completely at ease.

The almighty genius completely confirmed the Master's condition and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the other party. He seemed to have not suffered any harm at all, and his mental outlook was better than theirs.

"Da Vinci, you are finally here, I'm fine..." Fujimaru Ritsuka also breathed a sigh of relief, but a feeling of relief or loss quietly emerged in his heart. It was unclear whether it was relief or loss.

As expected, it was Da Vinci and the others who came to save people. In other words, this place belongs to the territory of the hostile camp... In other words, Lord Xia Ran... that magician is really the originator of this singularity, and he needs to fight against it. enemies...

He has been lying to himself... No, if you think about it carefully, it seems that he has not concealed it at all. The main reason is that he is too stupid and preconceptions that the other party must be an ally.

"Wait, where is Matthew? Why don't you see her?"

However, Fujimaru Ritsuka also knew that now was not the time to dwell on this matter, and she keenly noticed that among the people who came to save her, there was no trace of a junior, so she immediately asked with concern. Because if Ma Xiu was here, he would come to see him immediately.

Why would Leonardo da Vinci rush in now?

"This... it's really hard to explain in words. I'll explain it to you slowly later."

Da Vinci sighed, shook his head and said: "We don't have much time now, and the opportunity is rare. Now we must seize this opportunity and continue to climb to the upper level of this tower..." As she spoke, she He took the girl's arm and dragged her out the door.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was slightly stunned, feeling resistance and panic almost instinctively deep in her heart. Could it be that during this period of time that she didn't know about, Mashu had already...

"Don't worry, nothing happened to Mashu. She is just being held in the royal city." Da Vinci could see the panic deep in Fujimaru Ritsuka's eyes at a glance, and could only explain in such a hurried tone, "But it's already Someone has gone to rescue her, and if everything goes well, she will come and join us soon..."

"Is he imprisoned in the royal city?"

"Well, I'll tell you the details later..." Da Vinci nodded. The next moment, the movement from the corridor outside interrupted her words, "Oops! It seems that another shadow follower has been summoned. We Get out quickly, if you continue to delay, you won’t be able to walk anymore.”

"Yes! I understand!" Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded vigorously, quickly cheered up, and followed Da Vinci quickly out into the corridor outside. The sound of fighting rushed towards her in an instant, making her feel as if she had come all at once. It's like arriving at a crowded vegetable market.

"Okay? Then let's go!"

Scathach waved his magic spear and swept away the enemies in front of him. He glanced back, nodded slightly and shouted heroically.

The other servants did not respond, but quickly sped up their actions, cutting down the solemn knights who came up in the direction of their responsibility like chopping melons and vegetables, maintaining their position to protect the Master in the middle, and then started Move up and push towards the side of the passage.

The battle never stops. If you want to advance, you can only continuously eliminate the enemy and seize the gaps to occupy the space in front... This is already very troublesome, not to mention the existence of other obstacles. A group of powerful people The servants have been fighting until now, and they feel physically and mentally exhausted.

Because the internal defense of this tower is very terrible, it is not an exaggeration to call it a murderous attack at every step.

Many passage areas will be blocked by solid partition walls and magic barriers, completely trapping them in a certain area. Next, a steady stream of solemn knights came over to hold them back, and shadow followers one after another were summoned and thrown over, forcing them to be exhausted from fighting and unable to move forward...

And that's not all. After all, as a particularly terrifying magic workshop, the defense and counterattack mechanism cannot be limited to summoning objects, and they did not expect this trial to be that simple.

All kinds of rune traps and counter-attack magics are endless.

There are many areas where factors ranging from gravity to lighting can become environmental killers and beat them to a pulp.

Moreover, the Chaldean side, as uninvited and uninvited guests, do not understand the architectural structure and functional layering of this tower at all - it is also a certain passage sealed by a partition wall and a magic barrier, and they have no way to confirm it. Is it the correct direction to the upper level, or is it leading to some dangerous area?

Many times they took the initiative to break the seal, but instead of opening a new path, they released extremely terrifying monsters.

For example, the imprisoned demon can release a large number of fatal curses with the beating of its heart;

For example, a crazed hybrid that has been completely eroded by the dragon blood gene is essentially a dragon, with infinite strength and invulnerability, and its atmosphere-shaking roar can resist Mordred's Noble Phantasm, Rushing;

Another example is the trial-type automatic killing golem, or the Hydra Hydra, the giant demon pig, and the out-of-control grimoire containing powerful magic...

——In comparison, it seems that low-level cannon fodder such as Dragon Tooth Soldiers that often appeared in singularities in the past are not even qualified to appear in this tower.

However, the interference in the tower is extremely serious, so even Miss Scathach's rune magic has been severely suppressed. It is almost impossible to rely on divination, prophecy and other means to eliminate danger and choose the right path. , you can only rely on intuition!

And there’s luck! This seems a bit too deceptive.

It's really more exciting than drawing cards. No one knows what will appear in the opposite area after a certain passage is forcibly opened. Is it a magic laser array ready to go? Or is it a huge monster that occupies the entire space, preparing to spray poisonous mist that can kill all living things, or emit terrifying words that tear everything apart?

Fortunately, after Fujimaru Ritsuka rejoined the team, the efficiency quickly increased considerably. The girl who had been to the top floor did not know the detailed terrain structure of the tower, but at least she firmly remembered the correct route to the top floor.

The group of people didn't know that the buildings inside the tower could be moved at will, passages would disappear, corridors would lead to other places, and some rooms might be moved from one floor to another... the entire tower Just like a Rubik's cube, if it falls into the hands of the operator and is turned, everything will change.

There is no so-called fixed route at all, that is, someone is not targeting them at all. Otherwise, a group of people will probably never get to the top in their lives.

However, it was precisely because they didn't know that they felt they saw hope again, and they also knew that Fujimaru Ritsuka had been in contact with the magician, so while rushing on the road, they took the time to ask, trying to understand some basic information.

"Xia Ran? Are you sure you remember correctly, Lixiang? This name sounds like someone from the Celestial Dynasty. It's a bit strange to appear in this singularity..."

Da Vinci's face looked a little strange. She thought carefully for a while and confirmed that she had no impression at all. She could only shake her head with regret -

"It's probably a fake name. I've never heard of a magician with this name. There's no magician who's even remotely famous, let alone one who's so strong that he can compete with the Magic King Solomon..."

"The name, the name...is it also fake?" Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't explain the mixed feelings in her heart, and how complicated it was.

"It should be true that a person who can achieve such an achievement cannot be an unknown and unknown person! King Solomon never used magic, but the name of the Magic King still spread throughout the neighboring countries, and finally left a great reputation..." Da Vinci nodded seriously: "Do you think such a magician is really someone who has no rumors at all?"

"This... seems to be true."

Fujimaru Ritsuka was a little confused. In fact, she also knew that it was impossible. At least logically, what Da Vinci said was correct. She had always had doubts. Even BB had used this reason not long ago. Come and reveal the truth ruthlessly.

So... is it true that even the name is fake? The girl suddenly felt that her mentality was a little broken...

"It must be Merlin! Otherwise, why would even the name have to be concealed? Only he can do such a thing..." Mord angrily chopped down a demon doll blocking the way, waving the magic sword. Red shouted loudly, she had always felt that was the only possibility.

After all, the Lion King's true identity is his father himself, so who is her court magician? Do we still need to think twice?

"Actually, I think..." After hesitating, Fujimaru Ritsuka was about to express his opinion on this issue. Maybe even the name of that person was fake, but at least it couldn't be Merlin.

She was certain of this. That person's character had nothing to do with the person the Knights of the Round Table called Merlin. Moreover, some of the tone habits and the way she chose words and sentences at certain times made her feel inexplicably comfortable.

Unlike other servants, even if they are given modern common sense, it is difficult to change the fact that they are still ancient people. The magician gave her the feeling that she was of the same age at all... probably because it was too long. I have never had such an experience before, but this is the only thing Fujimaru Ritsuka is absolutely certain of.

After all, the circles and relationships she usually comes into contact with are very strange. They are either heroes from the past era or people who don't look like normal people. Even Mashu is an artificial life form and has never left Chaldea since she was a child... After finally discovering this rare thing in that magician, Fujimaru Ritsuka would naturally be very concerned about it.

"Whether it is or not, it doesn't matter anymore..." But at this time, Scathach, who was walking in front, took a deep breath and interrupted everyone's conversation.

The next moment, she suddenly threw the red magic gun in her hand, turning into violent thunder and passing through the spiral of death at supersonic speed!

Along with the thunderous roar that tore through the atmosphere, the densely packed various familiars, devices and other enemies in the passage ahead were all swept away in the shock wave!

Either it was completely destroyed and disintegrated into the most basic magic factor, or it was blown to pieces, leaving only a pile of charred fragments and parts. It was completely impossible to tell what kind of device it was, and even the entire corridor appeared. Cracking cracks, huge deep cracks.

"We are here, everyone...success or failure depends on this!"

Once again, she took out a magic gun from nowhere. It seemed to be exactly the same. The Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows spoke loudly with a voice that contained no emotion.

Everyone was shocked at the same time.

"It's still the same plan. The Holy Grail of the Magic King should be the source of huge magic power that distorts this era. As long as we seize the Holy Grail, we can disintegrate it all from the source..." Leonardo da Vinci also calmed down all expressions at once, and tirelessly repeated I would like to remind everyone about the core tactical arrangements of myself and others this time.

"There will be no problem. We have already reached here and no one came out to stop us, so Merlin must not be at home!" Mordred didn't care at all, and it seemed that she was very sure that the magician was Merlin's damned one. guy!

"I hope so. In this case, we can get the Holy Grail first, wait until Matthew comes over, use her shield to keep it and recover it..." Da Vinci also hopes so, "Then just hold on, don't To be defeated by the enemy until this era returns to normal..."

As long as the source of magic power is lost, the factors that distort the times will disappear.

If everything goes well, then all they need to do is defend the Holy Grail for a period of time under the enemy's crazy attacks. By that time, they will automatically win.

While they were talking, everyone had arrived at the entrance to the top floor.

While they were hesitating, with a sound of friction and rotation of the airlock mechanism, the closed door automatically opened to both sides, as if the owner inside was inviting them in.

"Please come in." An unusually calm and gentle voice came out, as if it was still carrying goodwill.

"...!!"

Fujimaru Ritsuka's body trembled, and his whole body suddenly became nervous, as if he had returned to that day not long ago: "Master Xia Ran?!"

The expressions of the others also changed at the same time. Their already tense bodies became even more tense now, and they all looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

They all thought the same as Mordred, thinking that the magician was not in the tower at all. But now it seems that it is not the case. It is just that the other party does not care about their wreaking havoc along the way. They are attacking layer by layer. They are even interested in waiting in leisure?

How arrogant is this? How confident is that?

Taking a deep breath, Scathach walked ahead of the crowd and walked in first, followed closely by the others.

The space in front of him suddenly opened up, and a dome-shaped hall appeared in front. The "Pillar of Light" exuding the brilliance of stars was restrained in the center, penetrating the sky and nailing into the earth, firmly suppressing the surface of the planet.

Under the "Pillar of Light", there is a figure wearing a black robe, with his back to everyone pointing at the huge projection, as if he is operating something.

"Welcome... Heh, it's really lively today." He said without looking back, his tone was still quite gentle, and he didn't feel like he was angry at all.

"Tsk, you are really confident. We were fighting all the way right under your nose, yet we did nothing during this period..." Scathach said coldly, staring closely at the figure. , "Although you do have this arrogant qualification."

"No, how can this be said to be arrogant... While you were advancing all the way, I didn't do nothing, I also did a lot of things."

The magician turned around, smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and gently tapped the headset on the side of his face: "For example, it's like this -"

Under the gaze of everyone, he coughed slightly and spoke into the microphone.

At the same time, near Fujimaru Ritsuka and Leonardo da Vinci, the spiritual communication that they thought was Doctor Roman from Chaldea was heard——

"Zizi... congratulations, you have finally arrived... zizi... on the top floor. The holy spear is right in front... zizi... the next step is up to you. Come on!"

"..."

"..."

There was a deathly silence at the scene.

Everyone's eyes widened in astonishment, and they felt a terrible fear. So the previous communications from the doctor were actually impersonated by this person? What if instead of helping him and the others meet up with the Master, he deceived him and the others into some terrible floor traps...

What will be the result? !
