Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

49. Unknown omen

What is the difference between war and adventure?

Adventure stories spend most of their time on the road, while war stories spend most of their time preparing for war.

No one knows what will happen in the middle of the adventure, but the upcoming war is foreseeable. The war is the breaking point that everyone knows, the climax of the story, and the countdown, urging everyone to continue to update. Much preparation.

What is happening now in the French Singularity is a war that focuses on defense and prepares for a decisive battle of all-out counterattack.

After the initial retreat battle, the heroic servants who were willing to join the Holy King's army have now become generals guarding one side, while those who are unwilling to join are hired and dispatched by the 'guild' under Ophelia's guidance. Reached cooperation with the Holy King Army.

As early as the retreat, Ophelia joined the guard team in order to protect a large number of refugees. Now the guild, which is ridiculed as the "Witch's Tail", has also moved to a very close distance from the headquarters of the Holy King in Marseille. Close to the countryside.

Of course, Chaldea, as an alliance force, has a higher status, directly participates in the decision-making level, and provides strong technical cooperation.

By the way, the reason why the Holy King decided to organize a special team to investigate outside the wall and send out Lu Mingfei, who was the strongest single challenger, was because Ophelia, who was originally stationed near Orleans, was retreating. It was discovered that there were very concerning fluctuations in the castle of Dracula's vampire family.

In principle, Ophelia is not a member of Chaldea now. Instead, she hides her relationship with Chaldea and cooperates with the Holy King under the guise of a neutral force.

In the final analysis, one still has to remain wary of the Holy King.

Charlemagne now follows the Holy King almost everywhere, paying attention to his every move. If there is a problem, he will report it immediately. Logically speaking, the Holy King should be fine. Anyway, it should be regarded as a preventive measure. This is a bit political. Lu Mingfei’s brain hurts just listening to the level of intrigue.

Because most of the manpower has to participate in research and development work, Lu Mingfei’s team has also undergone a breakup and reorganization. Currently, Lu Mingfei and Elizabeth are the main force, because both of them have the ability to fly and have high maneuverability. Among the new members, Kiyohime, although she is a Berserker, takes the initiative to take care of the logistics.

I don’t know why, but although she takes good care of everyone, she always avoids Lu Mingfei. Also excluded by her are Alta and Prelati.

And because Elizabeth is also a taciturn and thoughtful person, the person in this team who is closest to Lu Mingfei is actually a very, very familiar person - Caster Amadeus Mozart.

How mature is it?

Well, the team that had just joined the Survey Corps happily approached Lu Mingfei and suggested that as the only two men in the team, they should go find "that kind of place" to have a good time.

Mozart winked and said that he had found many wonderful "those girls."

The romantic and frivolous musician raised his wine glass high: "Thank you, His Majesty the Holy King! The environment in this hellish place in Paris is now as good as heaven! Ah, although I actually don't care about the mess at all, on the contrary, it feels more messy. It’s romantic~ So I said, leader, do you want me to introduce you to some ‘flower girls’?”

Lu Mingfei said to himself that this translation machine is getting more and more powerful and reliable.

Lu Mingfei refused in a hurry, saying that he had a family, and just made some inquiries about the place, hinting that he was interested in taking risks or something.

Mozart said it was a pity, and then said he would come back to meet them for a drink, and then he ran out to have a good time.

Although it is very out of tune, and although it is regrettable that the famous Mozart has such a character, Mozart's ability as a caster is still indescribable. In addition to lacking direct combat effectiveness, his auxiliary ability is very high.

After Su Xiaoqiang heard about this, he said contemptuously that Lu Mingfei still suffered from illiteracy. If he really knew Mozart's life, how could he think that he was a serious person?

Ability and character should be viewed separately.

Su Xiaoqiang also mentioned his encounter in Dracula's castle. There seemed to be a musician Caster among Dracula's forces, and then the other party used musical magic to perform Mozart's Requiem. Although judging from the actual results, The other party helped Su Xiaoqiang and Lucy at that time, but one still has to be suspicious.

I tentatively asked Mozart, but the guy turned out to be very stinky and hummed while saying: "I can't help it, I'm too talented, and I can't help it if I'm too famous~ Invincible~ How lonely it is~"

Lu Mingfei glanced at his fists and then at Mozart's small body. With his health bar, Lu could easily catch him with one punch and two cakes. The disruptive effect of music magic and so on, facing Lu Mingfei's magic power EX had no effect, so I stopped paying attention.

Since he was entrusted with the task, Lu Mingfei naturally had to work.

It was said that they wanted to investigate outside the wall, but Lu Mingfei couldn't figure out the specific content of the action. After all, in terms of technical support, Lu Mingfei couldn't conjure knowledge out of thin air even if he simulated those smart people.

The result of simulating smart people is to let him go to Prelati and let Prelati join the team.

"Although it is the Demon King's request, I refuse."

Prelatti rejected Lu Mingfei's invitation to join the team for the first time.

Prelati's attitude was very candid. She said that she had now successfully infiltrated into the Holy King's research team, stealing and learning techniques while helping Chaldea delve into the Holy King's secrets. At the same time, she also had a Heroic Spirit Summoner in her hand. I really can't spare the time to investigate the research topic of "Summoning Myself".

However, Prelati was willing to provide equipment support to hide the dragons' sensors, and also gave Lu Mingfei a warning.

"If you are going to investigate Dracula's castle, I suggest that you, Lord Demon King, go to Chaldea for a full-body examination to deepen your understanding of your own power."

Lu Mingfei always felt that there was something in her words, and the more he listened, the more it seemed that there was something wrong with her.

So Lu Mingfei grabbed her collar and lifted her up.

As a result, before Lu Mingfei threatened, Prelatti cast a look of longing and expectation.

"."

Lu Mingfei was speechless.

Then Prelatitone was beaten up, and then Mozart was found to play magic music in his ears, and Elizabeth, who was said to be a very unpleasant singer, was found to mentally torture him.

Lu Mingfei's fists and Mozart's magic sounds were very effective, but Mozart himself said that having him play such ugly music was even more torture for him.

However, Elizabeth was a bit surprised. When she learned that she was pulled over because her singing was terrible, she was angry and funny when she heard about it. In the end, she sang a few lines casually.

How to put it this way, it definitely doesn't sound good, but it's not bad either, it just feels ordinary.

However, Prelati said that he felt very good about being beaten.

After having fun, Prelatti also revealed some information that she had hidden.

"My devil, do you know the "Luoyan City Teaching Book"?"

"Luoyan City Textbook", the magic book held by Prelati, is undoubtedly the best as a treasure, allowing a person who knows nothing about mystery to hold this book and act like a top-notch magician. The cost of performing magic is that the longer you are in contact, the crazier it becomes.

This book also has a more famous name - "Raleye Text"

It’s something that often appears in Lovecraft’s “Cthulhu Mythos” series of horror stories in later generations.

"Luoyan City Textbook" was originally in Prelati's hands, and Prelati originally planned to give it to his friend Gilles de Reis, the French Marshal 'Bluebeard'.

But not long after the singularity was formed, the "Luoyan City Textbook" disappeared. She followed the traces and found Bluebeard who appeared as Caster's heroic spirit.

Caster's Bluebeard is a heroic spirit from the future. In this era, the real Giles in 1431 has not yet come into contact with the "Luoyan City Teaching Book" and went crazy. He is currently serving as the backbone of the Holy King's army, commanding together with Joan of Arc. One army guards one side.

Prelati believes that the "Luoyan City Text Book" may be a very special connection between the future self and Blue Beard after it was handed over to Blue Beard, causing Blue Beard to be bound to the Grimoire at the soul level. If Bluebeard appears in the world, Prelati will not have the "Luoyan City Textbook" in his hands.

Now, Caster Bluebeard, holding this dangerous magic book, is in Dracula's castle.

"But things like mental pollution are ineffective against you, Demon King, so it doesn't matter even if I didn't say anything~"

"There are relationships."

Lu Mingfei punched Prelati in the stomach again, and the pervert let out a cry of enjoyment.

Lu Mingfei himself is fine, but what about the others?

Lu Mingfei silently noted this matter and asked Chaldea and the Holy King Army to help prepare equipment for dealing with mental pollution.

In short, because he felt so good about being tortured, Prelati happily took Lu Mingfei into his workshop, compiled a copy of his own research materials related to "Luoyan City Textbook" and handed it to Lu Mingfei. inside.

Although this thing was given to Bluebeard by Prelaty, Prelaty was not the one who wrote it. He just accidentally fell into the hands of the evil alchemist. It was originally said to be a mysterious thing spread from the Xia Dynasty of China. Grimoire.

Lu Mingfei glanced at the various torture instruments in Prelati's workshop, especially the blood-stained iron maiden. He subconsciously imagined what Prelati would look like when he was 'enjoying' with this thing, and his scalp suddenly went numb. , took the information and left.

Prelati promised Lu Mingfei that although she would definitely not go for this extra-mural investigation, she would help Lu Mingfei prepare for the trip, and the Survey Corps would count her a place.

Her reluctance to leave the house made Lu Mingfei vaguely feel bad.

If this were a novel, it would definitely be some kind of foreshadowing.

But Lu Mingfei now represents Chaldea, and Chaldea is currently in alliance with the Holy King. After accepting this commission, he has to do it, right?

The Holy King himself also said that he could say whatever manpower and equipment he wanted, except that Giorgios had to maintain a defensive barrier [St.

Moreover, Chaldea herself is also very concerned about the situation of the Dracula vampire clan, so this trip is necessary.

All I can say is make more preparations, right?

The Holy King strongly recommended Joan of Arc. Lu Mingfei was also very interested in this famous 'wife' in various animated novels and comics, but considering Alta's problem, he gave up on the white Joan of Arc. On De's side, try to avoid contact with her and do their own thing.

Alta herself has been quite busy recently, and she doesn't know why. She seems to be very keen on finding her 'dragon' now.

But Prelati's suggestion is effective.

Chaldea helped Lu Mingfei do a full-body examination, and found a small problem.

I don’t know if I should call it a problem at all.

I don’t even know if I should call it a hidden danger.

The problem seems to be at the time of the initial summoning. When Prelati first conducted the experiment, she wanted Alta to reproduce the deeds of "Joan of Arc encountered the arrival of the angel in Donremi".

In this case, the summoning technique that Prelati gave Alta could not be a heroic spirit summoning technique, but an angel summoning technique.

Could the end result be an accident? Maybe something has tampered with it? Or maybe the angel summoning technique didn't fail, but really succeeded?

Who knows.

Because there are examples of Chu Zihang and Ma Xiu in Chaldea, Lu Mingfei naturally feels that he has become a pseudo-follower or a sub-follower.

Actual performance is similar.

But after in-depth inspection, Da Vinci and Roman discovered something was wrong.

Da Vinci explained to Lu Mingfei this way:

"Ming Fei, you must understand the game. Do you understand the game account? The situation of the pseudo-server and the sub-server is actually the same as getting the account corresponding to the heroic spirit. By logging in to his account, you can naturally use his skills. To outsiders, you are no longer you, but the account you use."

Roman picked up the coffee, took a small sip of the bitter taste, and explained:

"But obviously your situation is different. You are still you. You have not really become a pseudo-server. The reason why you are strong now is because you have many layers of BUFFs stacked on you. These BUFFs are mainly from the mysteries of the Cross. Systemically, Marda’s spiritual base is used as one of your strengthening buffs, rather than you actually merging with Marda.”

——[Comprehension difficulty: 1D100=95]——

——[Lu Mingfei’s ‘understanding’: 1D100=97 (???)]——

"What the hell"

Lu Mingfei took a breath of cold air.

".I actually understood it!"

Roman only felt that he had an old complaint stuck in his throat, but he didn't know what to complain about.

Lu Mingfei thought about it and felt that the hidden danger should be this: "In other words, the current combination of Martha and I is not complete. We have not become two heroic spirit servants, right? What if we encounter a big problem?" Can dissociation or something like that be forcibly separated? Although I can avoid control, but not the Malda in me?" (Note: The Great Dissociation, full name Mordenkainen's Dissociation, is a spell in "DND". Can cancel the buff spell on the opponent)

Roman nodded subconsciously, and then Lu Mingfei suddenly thought of a way to eliminate this hidden danger, as if suddenly enlightened.

Miss Favna mentioned that when she was a slave android girl, it was by chance that she obtained the heart of the heroic spirit Sigurd, and then merged with its spiritual foundation and became a heroic spirit recognized by the Heroic Spirit Seat. individual.

Lu Mingfei remembered, wasn't there another Martha in this singularity?

Ruler is Martha in his youth, and Rider is Saint Martha in adulthood. As long as he obtains Rider Saint Martha's spiritual foundation, he can complete it and become a true pseudo-server, so naturally there is no need to worry. The enhancements on the body have become ineffective.

Lu Mingfei felt that he was simply a genius!

Where is St. Martha now?

Remember, in order to destroy the Witch of Despair, the Holy King and Giorgios used the super magic [Right Hand of God] together. Because the magic was so powerful, the 3,333 people responsible for chanting it were carefully selected. The children of the choir had to bear a huge price. St. Martha, who was already in a bad mental state, got angry and had a conflict with Giorgios (Michael) at the time.

As a result, because Giorgios could not control the power of his [right hand], Saint Martha was shattered together with the Holy City armor on his body, and then disappeared.

Maybe she's still alive now?

Lu Mingfei made up his mind to include searching for St. Martha and solving his hidden dangers as the 'King of France' in the next extra-mural investigation activities of the Survey Corps.

It’s called the ‘Heroic Spirit Completion Plan’. Lu Mingfei happily wrote this cool battle name.

Within Chaldea.

Roman closed the communication with Lu Mingfei and looked at the analysis report in his hand, looking a little dazed.

Da Vinci refilled the cup that he had already finished without even noticing.

Then he picked it up and took a sip.

"Did you see it?" Da Vinci asked.

Roman nodded subconsciously.

"Lu Mingfei is in this situation. Others rely on buffs to gain strength. These buffs on him, those powerful protective powers, are actually just the medium to trigger his own power, the key to triggering the power in his own body!"

Da Vinci raised his head and looked at the ceiling, somewhat lost in thought.

"What the hell did Animusfia do?"

Actually I don’t know either (dog head.jpg)

Another hidden trap has been discovered. 97 versus 95 is amazing.
