Chapter 317:
"Jill!!"
Joan of Arc cried out in grief. Jill was the one who summoned her, and she was also the only companion she could trust. The pain of Jill's disappearance was like losing her last relative.
"Damn, it's all you, it's all you guys. If you weren't blocking me, Jill wouldn't have died!"
The hand holding Rika's fist was even harder, and the other hand holding the spear began to wave, intending to pierce Rika's body.
"stop!"
Roman, who saw Joan of Arc's movements, used the Command Spell for the second time, and the hand that pierced the spear could no longer move at all, and Lixiang also left Joan of Arc's hand at this time.
"Damn, did you even betray me? Magician!!"
"I……"
Roman couldn't explain it to Joan of Arc. He doesn't want to reveal his identity now, should he tell Black Joan that he was on Lixiang's side from the beginning? You must know that it was Hei Joan who rescued him from Lixiang's hands just now, but now he has ordered Black Joan to let Lixiang go.
For a time, Roman felt embarrassed.
Maybe he shouldn't explain because he doesn't need to explain it to anyone.
Neither Roman nor Joan of Arc found out that the Holy Grail dropped from Jill's hands did not fall into anyone's hands. It seemed to have found a new target, flew over from a distance, and finally stopped on the head of Joan of Arc.
"What is this? The Holy Grail?"
It is impossible for such a powerful magic to approach without attracting attention. The Holy Grail overflowed with golden light, and the rich magic power made it difficult to breathe, and then poured out.
what happened?
Unable to move, Joan of Arc can only let the magic power of the Holy Grail bathe her whole body.
"—"
Magic power poured into Black Joan of Arc's body, and through the induction of the Command Spell, Black Joan of Arc's spiritual foundation seemed to expand, changing in a direction that Roman did not know.
The next moment, the Command Spell's control over Joan of Arc disappeared, and Joan of Arc finally began to change.
She could no longer maintain her human shape, and the black phantom began to extend upwards, like a mountain in the dark night. No, it was a giant pillar that reached the sky. The black meat column is thick and long, comparable to a skyscraper, but when you look up, you can't see the top. The dark column body is **** in black, and its body is inlaid with eyeballs, which makes people feel creepy. In particular, the giant pillar exudes a huge magical power that makes people feel suffocated, and the sense of chaos is disgusting.
"How come? This is not..."
"Roman, what happened? I detected an abnormal spiritual reaction this time... What is this ugly pillar?"
Mona Lisa's exclamation came from her ears, and she finally got in touch, who had been missing for a while, but Roman couldn't hear her words.
This familiar feeling... can't be wrong. Although the knowledge on the magic path has been lost, the memory has not disappeared. This is a summoned object based on the "Demon God", and the "Demon Pillar" can only be summoned by the legendary "King of Magic".
"—"
The Demon God Pillar made an inexplicable sound, and its thick and long body began to twist. It was like a newborn child, unable to control its own body and voice.
However, there are some things that cannot be ignored. The eyes of its enemy, the Demon God Pillar, looked around, and when they saw Lixiang on the ground, the eyes on the Demon God Pillar immediately focused on Lixiang.
This scene shocked Roman, and he knew what would happen next.
"Lixiang, run away!"
I don't know if Rika was stunned by the sudden appearance of the Demon God Pillar, or if she didn't advance to Roman's words at all, she still stood there motionless... No, behind her was Arturia.
Roman rushed towards Lixiang.
But it was still too late. His weak body could not catch up with the attack of the Demon God Pillar, and red rays of light shot out from the Demon God Pillar's eyes, hitting Lixiang as much as possible.
Like countless arrows of light shooting out, piercing Tachika's body.
"Lixiang!"
Roman rushed to Lixiang's side, and he was relieved that, judging from Lixiang's steady breathing, Lixiang was not killed, and he couldn't even see any wounds from the outside.
It's good news that Lixiang is still alive. But there is also bad news. With this group of Servants who have already experienced a fierce battle, it is difficult to defeat this new demon god.
Roman saw Mash and the others coming from a distance, and he knew he couldn't wait any longer.
Just when Roman made up his mind, the Demon God Pillar underwent a new change. It seemed to have used up all its magic and strength and began to twist in pain, and Roman could feel its weakness. In the blink of an eye, its figure began to fade.
In the end, this new-born demon **** disappeared from the singularity.
"Senior!" "Master!"
Matthew and the others came in a hurry but came late. Whether it was the battle between Joan of Arc and Artoria, or the appearance of the Demon God Pillar, they were all over in a short period of time, and the Servant who rushed over could not help in the end.
"Mr. Magician S, what happened just now?"
Facing Joan of Arc's question, Roman didn't know how to answer.
Her tone was not polite. Because Joan of Arc believed that Roman was the righteous party, so he let Roman leave, but Roman attacked Arturia and Lika with Joan of Arc and an unknown monster (the Demon God Pillar), which made Joan of Arc very angry, even holding hands Her weapon also trembled with her anger.
Seems to be really hated. Everyone has their own bottom line, and even the best-tempered person is not allowed to be offended.
"Sorry, eh?" Roman smiled bitterly and faced Joan of Arc, "Although I want to explain it to you, it seems that I don't have time."
The Holy Grail fell from the sky to the ground, and after rolling several times, it finally stopped at Roman's feet.
Roman felt Joan of Arc begin to disappear. Not just Joan of Arc, but other Servants as well.
Joan of Arc disappeared, so did Jill, the Holy Grail became an unowned thing, and after no one controlled the Holy Grail, the original history began to gradually return to its original trajectory. In other words, this singularity has begun to be repaired.
"Magic S, you owe me an explanation."
"I will."
Roman nodded at Joan, and then watched Joan disappear from his eyes.
Mash threw herself on Rika and started to check Rika's body in a panic.
"Senior, are you okay? Senior?"
Mash put both hands into Rika's uniform, and after rubbing for a while, she didn't find any wounds, and Rika looked more like she was asleep.
"Mona Lisa, are you listening? What happened to her, senior? What happened just now?"
"Calm down, Matthew, Lixiang doesn't seem to be in serious trouble, and we won't be able to carry out a detailed examination until I come back. I've already started the spirit transfer, so wait a minute."
"As soon as possible, Mona Lisa."
Roman just watched, he didn't plan to communicate with Mash, he tried to avoid contact with Lixiang and others, after all, he couldn't guarantee whether Lixiang would tear off his cloak on a whim.
The spiritual transfer had already begun. Roman felt a trance and left France. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in the frame of the spiritual transfer.
Without letting Roman wait long, the frame opened, and Mona Lisa stood in front of him.
"Don't stand, change your clothes quickly."
While speaking, Mona Lisa threw Roman's uniform over.
Her face was not good-looking, and no one expected Lixiang to be attacked like this. She did not expect it, and Roman did not expect it.
Roman, whose face was also unsightly, turned out to be wearing clothes, and he did not shy away from having Mona Lisa in front of him. Instead, he took the time to change into Chaldea's uniform and hide the one in France.
After everything was ready, Mona Lisa opened the frame, and Roman, who was ready, supported Lixiang who fell from the frame.
"Mona Lisa! Doctor Roman! The senior was attacked, hurry up and see how she is?!"
Matthew, who came out of the frame, found Mona Lisa and Roman at the first time. He saw Roman supporting Lixiang and came out, but stopped after a few steps. This move made Matthew's heart be full jumped out.
"Doctor Roman, is there something wrong with the senior?"
There was also Mona Lisa who was also puzzled, but she soon understood where the problem was, and saw her walking to the other side of Rika.
"Step aside."
Roman let go of his hand and let Mona Lisa hug Lixiang.
"You should be exercising."
"...I will pay attention."
In the end, Mona Lisa brought Lixiang to the clinic. At Roman's request, the two finally left the clinic.
Lixiang was in good condition, and there were hardly any signs of injury. Even after some inspections, Roman couldn't find anything wrong. But Roman knew that this was impossible. How could the attack of the Demon God Pillar be so loud and rainy? Not to mention Servants, even if the heroic spirits exit the Hall of Valor in person, they may not be able to defeat them.
The Demon God Pillar transformed with the spiritual base of Joan of Arc was obviously in an unstable state, so it disappeared after executing the only attack. If someone really did this, it would be impossible to predict this situation, then the attack of the Demon God Pillar must have its special features.
Roman thought of a possibility - he took off Tachibana's uniform and began to examine her back. Sure enough, the rune hidden behind disappeared.
When Rika was rescued from the ruins ten years ago, Roman carved the two runes "strengthen" and "recover" on Rika's body. With the support of the runes, Lixiang's body has long been strong enough to be far behind the dragon species, and the power of "recovery" can allow her to recover any trauma in a short period of time without dying. .
This is the reason why Roman dares to let Rika run amok in Fuyuki City.
If the newly born Demon God Pillar hurriedly attacked Lixiang, the result would only be that Lixiang was severely injured, but it could fully recover after a while, and the newly born Demon God Pillar had already left.
However, if the purpose of the Demon God Pillar is to eliminate the runes on Rika, so that Rika loses the power of the runes, then Rika will become very dangerous in the future adventure of repairing the singularity.
PS1: Yesterday’s picture is up again, it’s just a very ordinary picture, so what happened to the review of the book guest?
PS2: In fact, the earliest plot designer is like this:
Joan of Arc: "Roar, my anger!"
Joan of Arc: "My **** is here!"
Roman: "Not yet, not yet."
Chapter 518 Chapter 56
After learning about Rika's situation, Roman heaved a sigh of relief, but he did not relax completely because new confusion followed.
Who the **** summoned the Demon Pillar? Why transform Black Joan into a Demon God Pillar? What is his purpose?
There is only one person who can summon the Demon Pillar and transform the Demon into a Demon God, that is, Solomon, the "King of Magic", the ancestor of all magic, who bestows the gift of "God" on human beings according to legend. But Roman can assure everyone that Solomon is already dead, and even went to Gaia's Hall of Valor to leave his spiritual foundation.
Could it be that "he" was resurrected? What is his purpose? Is he the murderer who destroyed mankind?
Although Roman was reluctant to believe it, the only clues pointed to him. If the halo covering the sky puzzled Roman, then the appearance of the Demon God Pillar pushed Roman to believe in the black hand who didn't want to believe.
It's just that it's still not clear who the murderer is, because Roman is still alive. That's right, Roman is still alive, so that person can't be the "King of Magic" Solomon.
"It seems that we can only continue to collect clues, otherwise all speculations are just empty talk without evidence. But... you can really sleep."
Roman looked at Lixiang lying on the hospital bed and said softly.
The attack of the Demon God Pillar was simply to find out the runes left behind in the past, and what was able to knock Lixiang unconscious was only a slight aftermath, and the state was just like an ordinary person's deep sleep. Falling asleep on the noisy battlefield, after returning to Chaldea, and moving from the central control room to the consultation room, Lixiang still has no sign of awakening. Woolen cloth?
Because she was neither sick nor injured, Roman did not need to treat Lixiang, and simply let her continue to lie on the hospital bed. After he helped Lixiang put on the uniform, he walked out of the clinic and found that Matthew and the others were standing outside the clinic.
This scene reminded him of his past memories, and he suddenly thought of the self who came out of the operating room. When faced with worrying questions like "how is my family", he would confidently tell them - please rest assured , the operation was successful.
"Doctor Roman! Is the senior okay?"
The moment he saw Roman, Matthew opened his mouth to ask Lixiang's situation for the first time.
Matthew's nervous reaction made Roman very gratified. This pair of sisters... the relationship between master and slave is so close, and it is the greatest reward for Roman.
"Don't worry, Lixiang is doing well."
"But, but... that monster is a very powerful monster, and I can feel its power can easily knock me down. Senpai suffered all of its attacks at that time...... Is it really okay, Senpai?"
Matthew felt powerless.
In France's singularity, she could feel her weakness, the Servants she met were stronger than her, and her martial arts were by no means comparable to those of the subservients. Especially with the Demon God Pillar that he met at the end, Matthew felt powerless.
"Get up, Matthew, don't be knocked down by a single failure."
The person who comforted Mash was not Roman, but Artoria who was beside Mash. She put a hand on Matthew's shoulder, trying to soften her tone.
"No matter who you are, there will be times when you fail. Some people will be knocked down by failure and will never get back on their feet. But there are also people who stand up again after failure. After being knocked down by failure, they work harder and regard the failure that knocked her down as motivation. This is the attitude of a strong man.”
"Thank you, Miss Artoria, I feel better. You are right, I should become stronger, and only in this way can I protect my seniors."
Matthew looked at Artoria who was comforting her, and clenched her small fists lightly, looking cheered up.
Then she turned her head to face Roman: "Doctor Roman, is the senior still awake?"
"Not yet, just normal lethargy. I don't think she should be disturbed now, and the results of the next examination will not be available until she wakes up. Miss Artoria, how is your injury?"
"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine now. As long as the spiritual core is not damaged, the Servant's injuries can recover on their own when the magic power is sufficient, and they can return to their full state with a short rest."
This phenomenon is not difficult to understand. Servant is not flesh and blood, but is composed of the fifth element "ether". As long as it is not fatally wounded, it can quickly recover under the action of magic.
But this recovery rate is not too fast.
Because she was back in Chaldea, Arturia did not need to maintain a state of battle, her armor and the iconic cloak disappeared, and so did the crown that should represent the king on her head. At this moment, Artoria is not like a king, but like a girl next door.
