Chapter 544 Chapter 78 Summoning the Goddess
The carriage has been walking for several hours without any bumps on the road, and it is as smooth as stationary without any feeling. It is believed that this carriage is already the product of magic enchantment.
In this case, their distance from the capital of the United Empire is also debatable.
When we got off the carriage, the sun had already risen. Judging by the geographical location and the height of the sun, it was probably after ten o'clock in the morning, but what surprised Roman even more was that they actually came to the beach.
"The sea?"
Could it be... the Roman Navy?
The joke doesn't make anyone laugh at all. Although Roman doesn't know much about the navy, if Erica can really summon the navy, with the current strength of the combined empire, she has completely abandoned the territory of the mainland.
In fact, Roman felt that it was an incredible thing for Erica to choose to leave the head of the United Empire at this time when every second counted.
The ship has been prepared by the sea, and Roman can see the traces of the ship are very obvious, it seems that it has just been built not long ago.
The three entered the boat, and two multi-talented soldiers acted as boatmen, sending them off the shore and heading towards the sea.
There were only three people in the cramped cabin, and no one said a word, and the atmosphere became very tense, perhaps because of what was going to happen next.
The boat traveled for a few more hours, and when Magician S came out of the cabin, it was after noon, and they stayed on the edge of an island. The edges of the island are all sandy soil. Surprisingly, the vegetation in the center of the island shows no signs of drying up in this climate. It seems that this island is a bit strange.
"Is it here, Lancer?"
"I (Rome) felt it, on this small island, and he will wake up here soon."
Lancer's eyes turned to the center of the island, where there was clearly something hidden.
wake? What is hiding here?
Magician S is unknown, but I believe he will see it soon.
The island is overgrown with weeds and surrounded by thorns. These plants seem to be consciously protecting the things inside.
"Go ahead."
"?"
Erica gave an order that made people scratch their heads...
"Me?" Roman pointed to himself.
"Of course, if it wasn't you, what did I bring you here for? Work for me now, and open a path from here until Lancer says to stop."
It turns out that the reason why he changed his mind temporarily and brought him here is to use him as a coolie.
To open a way through the dense forest, it is necessary to use magic by only one person - it seems that the prisoner is not so easy to take.
When he activated the magic circuit, Magician S suddenly found that when he used magic, the flow of magic power became jerky, and it seemed that something was preventing it from running. Not only the magic power, but also the magic circuit is affected, making it difficult for people to use magic well.
"What the **** is this place?"
He was even more curious about what was hidden in the island.
Under Lancer's guidance, the three moved in one direction. In fact, Roman's work is not much, more often two Roman soldiers open the way, and when they can't move forward, it is Roman's turn to do it.
About two hours later, everyone came to the ruins.
"This is the temple..."
It has become a ruin, not because of the erosion of time, but more like the force of the outside world knocked it down. It is difficult to find the original outline of the ruins with the naked eye. If the stone pillars that can still be seen are still there, Magician S would not be able to guess that the ruins turned out to be a temple.
This can explain why there is a block when the magic is released. Going back to its roots, magic is a magical technique that came from the gods of the age of gods, and can only be used by gods and their representatives.
So in the face of the ancient magic, the mystery of magic appears powerless, this is because of its root - the influence of the power of God on it. If it was just an ordinary temple, it would naturally not affect the magician, but Lancer said that "He" will wake up here soon, which means that the power of the gods is awakening, which will cause Roman's magic to be affected.
Does "the last call" mean the summoning of the gods?
It's not impossible. Although this world has never heard of anyone using seances, Erica not only has knowledge of this world, so it is not unusual for her to be able to use seances. And this sea area still belongs to the Roman Empire, so this temple should belong to a member of the Roman gods, and of course the one summoned is a pillar of the Roman gods. If Erica really succeeds, a living Roman **** stands on the opposite side of the current Roman Empire, and the blow to the Roman Empire can be imagined.
But as far as Magician S knows, the Roman pantheon...
Erica took the lead, and the others walked behind her.
There is nothing but broken stones in the ruins, but everyone can feel that the smell of God is getting stronger and stronger, which is why Lancer said "God will wake up soon".
No one knows which Pillar of God is the owner of this temple, because the symbols that marked the gods have also disappeared with the passage of time.
There's another question - who the **** is Lancer.
Although the awakening of the gods can be felt on the edge of the island, it is not difficult for Magician S to guess that Lancer may feel that a **** is awakening in the distant United Empire.
Erica just observed for a while, then walked to the ruins and stretched out, and asked the two soldiers to clean up the ruins.
The cleaning process was not complicated, and it only took half an hour to remove the gravel and stones on the ground. Surprisingly, the ground slate under the ruins was well protected, and there was not even a single crack, just like the one just carved. The difference from ordinary slates is that these slates have a sacred atmosphere.
That is, the breath of God.
"let's start."
Erica said this, her capable tone gave off a simple and rude feeling.
Magician S wanted to stop her, but thinking that Lancer was still by his side, he finally gave up the plan. Not to mention Lancer, and Erica, no matter which one, Roman is no match.
Erica took out a crystal bottle from herself. The transparent crystal bottle was filled with silver-white liquid. She opened the cork and poured the liquid inside on the slate.
That's mercury, a very common casting material. The mercury turned into silk threads and dripped onto the slate, flowed confidently on the slate, and finally formed a magic circle.
"Close it, close it, close it, close it, close it!"
When the summoning circle stopped flowing, Erica began to chant a spell.
"When it overflows, it breaks..."
Wait, isn't this the Servant's summoning spell? How could it be used to summon gods? You must know that gods cannot be summoned in the form of Servants. Even enslaving gods should find a safer way.
Magician S doesn't know what Erica is thinking, he prepares for the worst.
To the surprise of Magician S, Erica's summoning was successful, and a young girl stood up in the slate.
The young girl was wearing an ancient Greek-style white dress, her long purple hair was tied into a double ponytail, and her golden eyes were as clear and bright as crystal. She is very thin and looks like she is only eight or nine years old, but no one will underestimate her.
Judging the power of a **** by body size is almost self-defeating.
Feeling the divine aura coming towards her face, the goddess exudes divine power that has turned into reality, making the magician feel that the magic power is stagnant. There is no doubt that this is a goddess with a very high divinity.
"Hehe, to be able to make a goddess appear in the world, what an interesting but sad person. What's your name?"
The goddess smiled and made a sweet voice.
At this moment, Roman felt that his consciousness disappeared, and the whole person was fascinated by the goddess in front of him. He couldn't control his mind, he couldn't control his body, neither body nor soul belonged to him.
This is the charm of the goddess.
The power of the gods always affects the souls of mortals. When the **** of war appears in the human world, the world is filled with war; when the **** of evil appears in the human world, the evil of mankind will be exposed to the surface; drive...
This is the power of the gods, bringing the powerless human beings under his control.
"I'm Erica Bradley." Even in the face of the goddess, Erica still didn't show any respect. As if to emphasize something, Erica added, "It's Erica Blandri from Italy."
The gods, the gods of disobedience, have been laid down by another person in another world. Humans no longer need to fear and believe in gods. They are still the masters of the world, because this is the era of human beings.
"Erica Blandry, I took the name down, it's as beautiful as your face. Italy? I've never heard of this place, but to be able to give birth to a maiden as beautiful as you, then it must be A beautiful country."
The goddess naturally praised Erica's appearance and her homeland, and there was no awkwardness, and then she noticed Lancer beside Erica.
"You, you are not the Lord of Rome - Romulus?"
"Yes, I (Rome) is Romulus."
The goddess seems to know Romulus, which is rare to talk about Lancer's real name, but unfortunately the current magician S is still bewitched by the power of the goddess.
"Since you are my Master, you should be able to see my attributes. My abilities cannot provide you with power."
"It doesn't matter, what I need is not a rough **** who provides me with brute force."
"Oh? If so, what can I do for you?"
"I……"
"Haha, found it."
The voice of the outsider sounded, interrupting the conversation between the knight and the goddess, and they were secretly alert in the direction of the voice.
The other party walked towards the passage that was just opened. The person walking in front was an orange-haired girl with a partial ponytail. At the same time, they also felt that several Servants were approaching.
"Master, you're walking too fast, His Majesty Nero and Miss Joan of Arc haven't caught up."
"It's okay, aren't you and Artoria? You can protect me too."
"Be careful, Master."
The people who came were Tatsuka Fujimaru, Mash, and Artoria.
Not long after Erica and others set off, they followed, only three hours later than Erica and others. However, Erica and the others spent a lot of time during the period of entering the temple from the outskirts of the island, which made Lika catch up.
"Master of Chaldea?"
"Master of the United Empire?"
The two called each other by strange names, and there was a stark contrast between Tachika with a relaxed smile and Erica with a serious face, but there was no doubt that they were both hostile to each other.
"Senior, Mr. Magician S is there. Mr. Magician S, long time no see, I didn't expect you to be captured again."
The well-behaved Matthew greeted Magician S, but she was rash and did not realize that her words could bring a blow to an uncle who was in his thirties. Fortunately, the uncle seemed to hear nothing.
"Senior, Magician S seems to have a problem, has he forgotten us?"
"It's useless, he can't hear your voice at all now," said the young goddess. With a charming smile, she exuded a mesmerizing charm, "He has been fascinated by my beauty, and now he can't hear outside voices or see what's in front of him, like a man controlled by me Like a doll, he will only obey me. Raise your right hand, look, he is very obedient, right?"
After hearing the goddess's words, the silent magician S raised his right hand obediently, and didn't put it down until later.
"Rika, Mash, this girl is a Servant... Is she a Servant? Her spiritual foundation is completely different, and this number is too strange."
There was Mona Lisa's surprised voice around. The goddess' spiritual foundation made Mona Lisa completely puzzled. She didn't know that the girl's identity was a god, because gods could not appear in the world as Servants.
"No matter how much, Lixiang, it seems that trying to save Magician S is more troublesome than expected. In short, we will defeat them first, and then grab the unsatisfactory Magician S."
"Isn't it better to say this earlier? Come on, Arturia, Matthew."
"Hmph, what a rude woman. Lancer, fix them."
For some reason, Erica didn't like Lixiang at first glance, and she believed that Lixiang must have felt the same way.
Chapter 545 Chapter 79
Arturia and Lancer didn't hesitate, and when the Master decided to fight, they had already started.
The invisible holy sword and the red spear swung, and under Lancer's enormous strength, Artoria's body swayed slightly backward, but the second collision, she pressed Lancer's spear back.
The release of magic power made Artoria's power even greater, and each time the power was like the impact of the red dragon of Britain, it was a huge consumption of magic power. However, even so, after Lancer reacted, the advantage of releasing mana disappeared.
Lancer's power seems to be endless, and he is no less inferior in the face of any enemy, and he can handle two Servants with ease.
"No, there is no way to threaten Lancer at all."
Matthew said weakly.
The Servant fused with Matthew is good at defense, which can be seen from her weapons, and attacking is not her advantage.
Lancer's body didn't know what kind of protection he had received. He even ignored Mash's shield and let the giant shield knock on him, focusing on dealing with Artoria's holy sword. In the short confrontation, Lancer already knew that the only thing that could threaten him was the Shadowless Sword in Artoria's hand.
The long spear collided with the holy sword, and a wind of magic power was rolled up, and the gravel on the ground was instantly blown away. Arturia and Lancer fought silently, looking for a chance to kill each other, but they were both battle-hardened warriors, and such chances were rare.
"...What kind of monster is this?"
Feeling the arm strength from the Lancer gun, the prolonged impact made Arturia feel that her arm was starting to go numb. If it continued like this, her sword might come off her hand.
"Master, Matthew, stay away from me."
The two girls couldn't help but be stunned, and then they understood Arturia's plan.
She intends to liberate the Noble Phantasm, the power of the holy sword is definitely not something Lancer's flesh and blood can resist.
"No, Miss Artoria, Mr. S the magician is still there."
If the holy sword is released here, the magician S who has been charmed by the goddess will be evaporated in an instant.
