Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

70. Crowned Heroic Spirit (Part 1)

In order to deal with Lancelot, Chaldea comprehensively strengthened Koharu's weapons.

Because Koharu is also Galahad's supporter, Chaldea tried to reproduce Mashu's data on her, and combined with Prelati's illusion, she was able to 'reappear' - or in other words, summon the 'Round Table' come out.

The round table, after all, is just a table. It can be used as a shield. It was modified after the Heroic Spirit Noble Phantasm.

Ludock, Luerga Marie, and Prelati helped Xiaochun further upgrade his equipment for this battle.

Inside the modified round table, there are thirteen ‘concept bottles’.

By using the round table like now to block the attacks of the knights of the round table who swore an oath to the round table - after blocking Lancelot's attack, the power that Lancelot used to attack the shield will be absorbed, transformed and then filled into the bottle 'Inside.

Then, Koharu inserted Solomon's Sword into the shield of the Round Table as if it were sheathed.

Sword and Shield in One·Energy Recharging

Then, the absorbed energy bottle was filled into Solomon's Sword.

Lancelot's power was transferred to the Sword of Solomon!

This is a temporary method that the Chaldean rear can think of to maximize the effects of the Galahad Spirit Base and the Miracle Emblem.

The design concept is very simple, that is, use all means to make Xiaochun responsible for holding back Lancelot and Lancelot's army——

However, the actual situation exceeded everyone's expectations.

"wait wait wait!"

With his helmet blown off and his whole body rolling on the ground several times, Lancelot managed to regain his posture with the holy sword.

"Wait a minute! What's going on with that tone of your voice!? This kind of tone that doesn't treat your father as a father--"

Boom!

Xiaochun kicked Lancelot in the belly of the armor, leaving a dent on it, and then Lancelot was kicked away again!

"you--"

Bang!

Before Lancelot could reach the ground, he was once again hit by a shield from Koharu who was following him.

It's so surreal.

Regardless of whether it was the Knight Legion or the Chaldean people behind them, everyone was dumbfounded except for Prelati, who was extremely happy to watch the fun.

The scene in front of them was a little too 'superb' for all of them.

The Knight Legion's brain couldn't understand why their invincible General Lancelot was beaten unilaterally by a little girl of unknown origin who suddenly appeared and was suspected of being a Cos Knight of the Round Table.

Chaldea said in his heart: Our plans here are all about how you can hold Lancelot, whether you can hold Lancelot, and how far you can hold Lancelot. In view of these situations, How do we plan to take people away?

But what's going on now?

Everyone here in Chaldea is ready to appreciate once again "Koharu successfully awakened the power of the Miracle Badge to create a miracle in a desperate situation."

Roman himself, who had been being called by Koharu "Solomon! Give me strength!", was also silently preparing for the 'action' from the rear.

To be honest, he may not know as much about the Sword of Solomon as Galahad, but magic is well-known. As long as you are willing to think about it, there are always more solutions than problems.

The Sword of Solomon is not a sword of miracles, but a sword of wisdom, or to put it more bluntly, it has the performance of a holy sword, but in essence it is a sword that can be used to cut people. Shaped 'staff'.

Let’s put it bluntly.

Solomon himself is actually not particularly good at magic. Compared with magic, he has always specialized in temple construction - that is, "civil engineering".

But this does not prevent Roman from copying his homework.

What is Solomon's sword of wisdom? Solomon himself couldn't tell clearly, but in Chaldea's journey so far, he happened to meet such a person who used "This curse is powerful and eloquent, a sword of wisdom that summons victory!" 】The God of War of Light and the God of War of the East.

That's right.

I am talking about you! Velesh Rana!

Roman didn't even try to pretend anymore, the ring was exposed, and he waited for Xiaochun to say "Give me strength, Solomon!" He received the signal from the Supreme Lord of the Rings, which symbolized Solomon, and immediately began to copy. Veleslana's sword of wisdom was sent to Koharu who was fighting a difficult battle on the front line.

But... what is going on?

In addition to not taking it too seriously, he was using illusions to 'broadcast' all the knights, constantly showing various close-up shots of Lancelot being beaten.

And use the maximum volume to transmit Xiaoharu's voice to everyone's ears so that all the knights present can hear it clearly.

"What are you pretending to do! You hesitant coward!"

"Have you noticed that it's me? You've noticed that the presence inside me is Galahad - your son, right?"

"Why are you tied up?"

"Why show mercy?"

"Because I am your son, you are merciful——"

"It's a shame if you show mercy because of this!"

"Lancelot! You prude! Hypocrite! Impulsive idiot!"

"Obviously I want to have a good relationship with my children, but when I actually practice, I can't help but go all out and regret it afterwards——"

"Do you think 'I (Galahad)' don't know these things!?"

"You are such a prude!"

"Serious! Rift! Meticulous! He is simply the ideal perfect knight——"

"Except when facing women, you bastard!"

"You think I'm a troublesome person now, and there's absolutely no reason why you can't be cruel to me! You know it all too well!"

"It's not because you can't beat me!"

"Just because I am a woman! Just because the opponent in front of you is a beautiful woman!"

"Elaine cheated on you and you were furious, but because she was a woman, you let her go!"

"Guinevere told you her love. You knew it was disrespectful, but because she was a woman, you accepted it in the end!"

"The person who made your beloved Guinevere suffer - King Arthur! You could have communicated with her, but you did nothing. You just hesitated and maintained an ambiguous relationship! The reason?"

"It's simple! Because King Arthur is also a woman! And a beautiful woman!"

"Same now!"

"What are you still hesitating about!?"

"You must have noticed it more or less in your heart, right!?"

"That person - The Lion King is not Arthur at all!"

☆

The battle between Koharu and Lancelot was extremely brutal.

Tragic in every sense of the word.

Mainly due to the brutal public execution of Lancelot.

As Xiaochun blasted Lancelot into the hole in the ground for an unknown number of times, Lancelot finally gave in——

Accompanied by Xiaochun's words:

"Wouldn't it be enough to do this earlier? Grandfather!"

And the stunned Lancelot subconsciously asked: "Why not dad?"

This is how the Battle of Cairo ended.

In the final analysis, the reason why Koharu was able to suppress Lancelot and beat him was not only due to the power of Galahad and the effect of the round table, but also because Lancelot himself was seriously shaken mentally.

In fact, the real cause of Lancelot's reflexes was that Lancelot, who was already erratic in his mind, was suddenly forced by Agwen and the Lion King to force Lancelot to Lot wiped out all life in the city of Cairo.

Lancelot was already very conflicted

On the one hand, he did not want to 'betray' King Arthur - he believed that he had betrayed King Arthur during his lifetime, even if King Arthur himself had forgiven him, so he did not want to betray Arthur again in his second life as a Heroic Spirit Servant.

But on the other hand, he didn't want to hurt innocent people. Bound by contradictions, if he could still maintain a delicate balance, the order issued by the Lion King and Agguiwen aggravated Lancelot's heart. A spiral of contradictions.

In fact, this spiral of contradictions has always existed.

Lancelot betrayed Arthur during his lifetime, but he could not look straight into his heart, because in the end, he regretted it countless times. When he spent his later years in the monastery, he was awakened in nightmares more than once - —

Lancelot regretted it.

Houhu himself ‘why didn’t he betray King Arthur’.

King Arthur forgave Lancelot, but only gave him one last "command" as part of his punishment.

——Never again set foot on British soil

This order itself is nothing, after all, Lancelot was not originally British, but French - but the problem is that this is the last order given by King Arthur to Lancelot.

Because of this order, Lancelot, who was unwilling to betray Arthur, had been hesitant before the final battle at the sword fence in King Arthur's life. He was eager to return to King Arthur to help him, but he was worried that such a move would be Betrayed Arthur's last command.

So he sent letters to King Arthur again and again, begging King Arthur to at least let him go back and put down the rebellion started by Mordred.

But was rejected.

Hesitant, uneasy, and worried, but in the end Lancelot obeyed King Arthur's order and did not set foot on British soil because of his hypocritical 'loyalty'.

As a result, this is also one of the important reasons that led to the death of King Arthur.

King Arthur's strongest knight, King Arthur's strongest sword and shield, were not by his side during the Battle of the Sword Parade.

What exactly is loyalty?

What exactly is betrayal?

No, ultimately.

Just stupidity, just the stupidity of a coward named Lancelot.

The public execution and angry shouting from Xiaochun was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Oh, as for Galahad, the reason why Galahad's spiritual reaction was so violent was because he simply wanted to beat Lancelot.

With extremely complicated emotions.

Lancelot betrayed the Lion King.

"The Lion King, not Arthur! Not my king!"

He drew his sword and announced to all the confused knights who followed him who were unwilling to wield the butcher knife on innocent people:

"The enemy is here - Camelot!"

The moment Lancelot made up his mind.

In the Holy City of Camelot, between the thrones, the Lion King opened his eyes.

Staring at the Lion King's face, Agguiwen seemed to notice a smile that seemed to be an illusion, appearing on the corner of the Lion King's mouth, but it was fleeting.

Instead there was only coldness.

Pure, utter coldness.

"That's right, Mordred, Bedivere, Ivyn, Percival, and Lancelot, they have betrayed the Round Table."

moment.

Mordred and Lancelot, who had received the blessing, both noticed that the 'blessing' and 'angel power' given to them by the Lion King had all disappeared.

Without the protection, their spiritual base levels have dropped from the level of quasi-singularity kings to the normal level.

but.

Although he has become weaker, the weight on his shoulders has never been so light, and the feeling in his heart has never been so free since he appeared in Jerusalem.

".Um?"

Xiaochun, Lancelot, and many knights noticed something at the same time.

White things fall from the sky.

"Snowing?"

No, that's not snow.

That's the real invader, showing his fangs.

【Cairo Front·End】

[Because there is no direct participation from Lu Mingfei himself, I have tried to keep some of the content of the judgment as simple as possible]

[At this point, among the plots of various fronts unfolding in parallel, only the Mountain People front remains at the end]

[Then go back in time again, to when Lulu was still singing to Mordred to instill non-existent memories——]

Lu Xiang, Odysseus, Zhang Wuji, Belial

The four-person team responsible for the front split into two as they set off.

Lu Xiang and the demon Belial traveled to her fortress behind Mordred to rescue Silent Hassan who was imprisoned there.

Zhang Wuji and Odysseus went directly to the mountain people's stronghold.

Odysseus aside, Zhang Wuji has his own special mission, which is to go to the stronghold of the Mountain People to find the assistance of a legendary being——

Crown Assassin: Hassan Sabah

To be more precise, he is the ‘first generation Hassan’, which is the true ‘Old Man of the Mountain’, the true meaning – ‘Huoshan’!

This was the information Chaldea received from the designer of the modern Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique, Ma Qili, during the original singularity in London.

Information about the existence specifically designed to defend against the "enemies of human nature" - the Heavenly Riders and Crowned Heroic Spirits!

The so-called crowned heroic spirits are seven heroic spirits corresponding to their respective job titles.

A crowned heroic spirit does not mean the strongest, but a heroic spirit that has been endowed with a special ‘crowned spiritual foundation’.

In layman's terms, it means getting a super enhanced BUFF called "Grand Rank".

Among the seven crowned heroic spirits, six crowned heroes have no fixed identity. Who will be given the crown basically depends on who is the enemy of humanity. For example, if the enemy is Goetia, how to deal with his crown It would be Solomon, the crowned magician. If the enemy was Daji, the crowned magician to deal with her would be Jiang Ziya, the crowned magician.

Except - Assassin's crown.

There is only one person with the title of Assassin, and that is the real ‘Old Man of the Mountain’!

In order to fight against the "existence without the concept of death" - the corpse of the sky, the Chaldean coalition forces need the power of this crowned assassin for no reason!
