Chapter 441:

——King Arthur doesn’t understand people’s hearts.

The knight who left Camelot once said something like this, and it broke Arturia, who was pretending to be a man and running Britain diligently.

She was originally an innocent girl, disguised as a man under Merlin's suggestion, disguised herself with a hard shell, and became the majestic King Arthur.

She has always been a girl, whether it is a man or a king, she is always in disguise. "Pretending to be a man" has long been the same as "disguising as a king", so she has always been afraid of exposing herself and worried that her mistakes will be exposed to Britain. bring destruction.

So when the knights around him left one by one, Arturia didn't think it was their fault, but thought it was her fault. Even when she died, she still held the idea of ​​"it would be great if the sword of the king could choose a better King Arthur", and signed a contract with restraint.

When the holy spear appeared in front of her, Artoria knew that there was an opportunity to save Britain, so she chose the holy spear without hesitation at that time.

"She's denying her past?"

Joan of Arc was stunned, and she never thought that Arturia had this painful wish in her heart.

The denial of oneself, unable to let go of past mistakes, every time I work hard for this desire, I will feel pain because of the destruction of my homeland.

She has already taken all the responsibility on herself.

"This is the 'Gorgeous' King Arthur. No one can accuse her of creating a prosperous Britain, even if she destroyed it. Some might find it a naive ideal, but no one has ever been able to do it. To this noble."

Roman didn't know what emotion he was holding when he said these words. He couldn't imagine a king sitting on the throne like walking on thin ice. Roman didn't even know whether Artoria made this wish because of guilt or because she felt tired.

In the past, he only needed to do what he "should" do. "Solomon" should do what he should do, regardless of the process or the result. This is like a game that has got the rules of the guide, he just needs to follow the guide and it is enough, and the result has been determined from the beginning.

"If you have anything you want to say to Artoria, or questions you want to ask, keep them."

Roman had to come up with words of comfort to Lixiang to comfort Joan: "We still have time, even if I don't have it, you still have a chance. Chaldea was originally set up to rest the wrong history, if Arturia succeeds in saving In Britain, we must have a chance to see her again, and then we shall find her."

"hope so."

Although the problem has not been solved, Joan's mood has improved a lot. When you encounter troubles, talking is a very good solution, it can share your troubles with another person and let him accompany you in troubles.

"There's another thing next."

"another thing?"

What is Jeanne still worried about?

Roman thought about it, but in the end he couldn't find the problem that was still plaguing Joan of Arc.

"Next, please explain, what is your relationship with that fox witch, Mr. S the magician."

At this moment, a "gentle" smile appeared on Joan of Arc's face, but Roman felt that there was nowhere to escape.

In the end, there is still no escape.

...

Probably because the previous enlightenment played a role, Joan of Arc's reckoning after the fall was much simpler than Roman imagined, and there was a sense of going through the motions.

That being said, the anger in the backyard has finally subsided? This is a good thing. Joan of Arc's anger has calmed down temporarily, and she will not impulsively tell Lixiang the truth, and even become an accomplice who helps Roman to conceal Lixiang.

You, Jeanne, are neutral.

The trivial matters of Chaldea are finally resolved, and Roman can finally make time to do his own business. During the day, he mainly inspects and analyzes Chaldea. At night, he tries to retrieve the knowledge of magic that has been abandoned by himself. No matter what kind of thing, there is no room for sloppy romance.

It seemed that Joan of Arc planned to keep a distance from Roman, so the lectures that had been agreed upon were cancelled unilaterally. Except for meeting during inspection work, Roman never saw Joan come to his room. Although it will be somewhat disappointing, but this part of the time is exactly what Roman needs, and he will not take the initiative to mention it again.

Roman thought that this kind of time would last until a new special point was found, or that Olga Marie woke up from her slumber, but was disrupted by an accident one day.

"Doctor Roman, wake up quickly, something happened!"

In the morning, Roman was still asleep, and was woken up before the biological clock was up.

Is this Matthew?

When I opened my eyes, I saw Matthew of course. Although it was very strange why Matthew appeared in the room, but thinking that the door of his room had been opened like a soda can, Roman would no longer pursue it.

but--

"What happened? Matthew, what's wrong with you?"

After seeing the anxiety on Mash's face, Roman broke out in a cold sweat and got up from the bed at once.

"My body? No, I feel fine." Seeing that Roman was planning to go to sleep after hearing her answer, Matthew shouted loudly, "Get up quickly, Doctor Roman, something happened to the senior!"

"What? Something happened to the senior?"

"Lixiang?" Roman was obviously stunned, and then he almost rolled from the bed to the ground, "Lixiang, what happened to her again?"

"No, it's not the senior who got into trouble, it's the senior who has an accident!" Feeling that Roman didn't understand her words, Matthew became even more anxious, "Senior seems to be in a coma and won't wake up no matter how much you scream!"

The time had to go back half an hour ago, which was not long after seven in the morning.

Although Chaldea has been simulating the 24-hour system operation, there will still be confusion in everyone's work and rest time, especially Olga Marie's unrestrained overtime mode, everyone has long lost the concept of time, if it is not occasional to see the clock At the time, they had long forgotten that it was time to rest.

The only person who maintains a good schedule is probably Matthew. Since she was born, she has strictly followed the schedule set by Roman, and has never violated that schedule except for physical illness.

So Mash can wake up on time at 7:00 in the morning and go to Lixiang's bedroom after washing up. Because Lixiang's work and rest are too casual, in order to supervise this "senior", Matthew volunteered to be the supervisor, and got the access card to Lixiang's room.

So, is this family too messed up?

However, when Matthew was ready to be hugged by Lixiang and rubbed against the bed for half an hour to wake her up, she found that Lixiang who was sleeping was unmoved at all. At first, she thought that Lixiang was pretending Sleeping, but later it was confirmed that Lixiang was unconscious.

"I also tried hitting the senior's head with the back of the shield, but even if I knocked the senior's head swollen, it didn't wake her up."

On the way to Lixiang's dormitory, Matthew told Roman about everything that happened just now, seemingly unaware that he had done too much.

To be able to knock Rika's head swollen with a shield, how much force did you use, Matthew? Could it be because he knocked her out with all his strength?

"Have you told anyone else about this?"

"No, I came over to find Dr. Roman as soon as possible. Do I need to find someone else now?"

"Well, now you go and call the other Servants... No, let's help me move Lixiang to the isolation room first."

It's unclear what happened to Lixiang. Maybe she has woken up? Or maybe she needs emergency treatment. It's too inconvenient for Roman to be alone, he needs an assistant.

After arriving at Lixiang's room, the two saw Lixiang lying on the bed, but they were not in a healthy sleep, but in a silent coma. The sound and frequency of breathing were lower than normal sleep.

Her breathing is normal, her heartbeat is normal, there are no wounds on her body, and there are signs of being beaten on her head... Except for the one on the head, there is no other position at all. .

"Lixiang? Lixiang? Wake up quickly, if you're pretending to be asleep, wake up quickly."

That being said, but after Roman's inspection, it is very unlikely that Rika is pretending to be asleep. After opening her eyelids, she found that her eyeballs were unresponsive, and her heartbeat and breathing were terrifyingly steady.

"Move her to the isolation room, and then notify the other Servants. Remember, don't leak the news to other researchers, it's enough to announce the war meeting."

"Yes, Doctor Roman."

Matthew moved Rika to the isolation room, and luckily didn't meet anyone else along the way, so it didn't cause any panic.

After arriving in the isolation room, Roman asked Matthew to place Lixiang in the life support device, and then activated the life support device that "will keep people alive as long as they don't die".

Roman was here to check Lixiang's body, while Matthew left the isolation room, went to find other Servants, and informed them to come here.

The blood is normal, the nerves are normal, the magic circuit is normal, the brain waves are too weak... The life support device is turned on, and all the data of Lixiang's body are displayed in front of Roman's eyes. In the end, it is found that Lixiang's body is still healthy and strong, but she doesn't know it. Can't wake up for some reason.

When Roman started to check, the Servants scattered all over Chaldea also rushed over at the first time. Whether it was El-Melloi II who was working overtime or Mona Lisa who was refining holy spar, there was no hesitation. He rushed to the isolation room after receiving the notice of Matthew.

PS: Lancelot will appear at the sixth singularity. Due to the speciality of Lancelot (female), he will not be summoned at present.

Chapter 698 Chapter 223 Prison Tower (1)

"The results of the inspection are very similar to those of the director."

When the Servants gathered in the isolation room, Roman sent the inspection report to them, but the only people who could read it were El-Melloi II and Mona Lisa.

After some inspections, the two came to a conclusion and found that Lixiang's situation was very similar to that of the director, that is--

"There is a problem with the soul."

That's right, just like Olga Marie's soul fell into a coma, there was a problem with Rika's soul and she fell into a coma. But the problem with Olga Marie is that she and the Holy Maiden of Winter are separated, and they can be restored as long as the two become one again, but the problem of Rika is unclear.

No cause could be found, no cure could be found.

Lixiang was in Chaldea, and logically would not be attacked by the enemy. Taking a step back, even if Goetia has come to Chaldea, Chaldea's own defenses can sound the alarm, letting everyone know that the enemy has invaded.

But last night was spent silently, which means that Rika was not attacked by the enemy in Chaldea, and after ruling out this possibility, Roman also got a result.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's a curse," Roman said, looking like Tachika in his sleep, "Joan of Arc once told me that the magician S and David both knew about the London Singularity. The real name of 'that enemy' has a powerful curse, and Rika has already triggered the curse at that time without being affected in any way. I think that's because Rika's powerful body resists part of the power of the curse, but the rest of the power is in this paragraph The time has come into effect, which is why Rika falls into a coma."

Thinking back, how could a spell as powerful as the real name curse have no effect at all? It is undeniable that Rika's body is very strong, and both the body and the magic circuit have already surpassed that of ordinary magicians, but the strength of the soul has always been the weak point of Rika, and I think Gaetia also saw this.

"Doctor Roman, could it be said that the senior has..." Matthew's face was full of fear, and she didn't have the courage to say that word.

If the soul dies, even if the body is still alive, it is meaningless, and Rika will become a living dead sleeping on the bed forever.

"Don't worry, Matthew, Rika is still alive, but the soul has left the body to go to another place." Roman showed a relaxed smile, making Matthew's emotions relaxed, "Just find a way to bring back Rika's soul. , she can wake up again."

After finishing speaking, Roman turned his head to Joan of Arc and said, "Joan of Arc, please use the Noble Phantasm once."

Of course Joan of Arc did not reject him, the Noble Phantasm "My God is here" was used in the isolation room, and the divine light fell on Lixiang. It's a pity that Rika has no sign of awakening, and it seems that Joan's Noble Phantasm has not dispelled Gaetia's Noble Phantasm.

The place where Rika is cursed is the soul, and now the soul has left the body, but using blessings on the body has no effect.

It turns out that Roman et al. have indeed slackened. When they were at the London Singularity, they knew that Rika was cursed by Getiah, but they saw that Rika was safe and sound, and they thought that the real name curse had expired, but they didn't expect that Getia would slyly trigger the curse and not trigger it.

At that time, everyone didn't think of this, so they didn't check carefully, and they didn't treat Lixiang. Because of this, within a few days of returning to Chaldea, Li Xiang's soul was swept away without a sound.

"Mona Lisa and Joan of Arc stay, the others... Please keep your original work, don't let the Chaldean staff notice the problem, and avoid causing panic in Chaldea."

Everyone has no objection to Roman's order. He was originally the current top management of Chaldea, and these people more or less know his identity, and there is no reason to refuse it, whether in public or private.

"Doctor Roman..." Except for Matthew.

"Don't worry, we will do our best to wake Lixiang. The next time I enter the isolation room, Lixiang will already wake up."

Of course, Matthew will not doubt Roman's determination, because Roman is Lixiang's father, and based on this alone, Roman will work harder than anyone else. She thought of how long ago, she had fallen down because she couldn't adapt to the life outside the isolation room. In the end, it was Roman who worked tirelessly to save her.

"I see. I believe that Dr. Roman will be able to rescue the senior."

Matthew has more confidence in Doctor Roman's abilities than anyone else.

After the Servants left the isolation room, Roman locked the isolation room from the inside. Unless a Servant used a powerful attack outside, they would never be able to come in from the outside, and they were also aware of everything that happened in the isolation room. Know nothing.

After they left, the isolation room fell silent, and Joan and Mona Lisa seemed to be waiting for Roman's new orders.

After thinking for a while, Roman said to Mona Lisa, "Joan of Arc already knows my identity."

Mona Lisa was just stunned, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't show a surprised expression. It seemed that she had expected this fact.

In comparison, Joan of Arc became cautious for some reason, especially after finding that Mona Lisa did not respond to this, she became even more at a loss.

This kind of nervous performance makes people feel more and more strange.

Mona Lisa's attention is more on important things, and the tacit understanding over the years has allowed her to understand Roman's thoughts: "What are you going to do? Do you already know where Rika's soul goes? ?"

If you want to retrieve the deprived soul, it is not enough to find a way in this place, and Getia will definitely prevent them from saving Rika's soul back.

"There is still a weak connection between Lixiang's body and soul, and I intend to find Lixiang's soul through this connection."

"You're going to...you're going to find Lixiang in the same way?!"

The so-called "same way" means that the soul leaves the body, because only the soul can go to the place where the soul is. There is no doubt that this is a very dangerous thing, and the soul that has left the body and the body that has lost the soul are defenseless.

Seeing the nervous Mona Lisa, she found that she had a plan to tie Roman up to fight back to the dormitory, Roman quickly explained: "Don't worry, this is not a reckless behavior without impulsiveness, I have a certain degree of confidence to do this. Do it. I have combined with Merlin's spiritual foundation, and I am more skilled in the operation of the soul than others, and I can return in time even if I encounter danger."

Different from other magicians, Merlin is the descendant of the dream demon and possesses the power to manipulate dreams, which is related to the ability of the soul domain. In the face of Lixiang's current problem, no one is more authoritative than Merlin, and it is helpless to leave it to others. At this stage, only Roman can use Merlin's ability to rescue Lixiang.

Why didn't the Mona Lisa think of this? It's just that she doesn't want to see Roman to take risks, even if the object is Lixiang, but Roman, as Lixiang's father, Mona Lisa is not qualified to stop him.

"I also have a certain degree of dabbling in the realm of the soul. What can I help you with? Do you need me to go with you?"

Mona Lisa is also a very good puppeteer, she can even keep her soul in the magic doll she made. It is worth mentioning that when Mona Lisa was summoned by Chaldea, because the summoning system was very unstable, Mona Lisa could return to the Hall of Valor at any time.

But after Roman's persuasion and Matthew's reasons, Mona Lisa finally stayed. However, Mona Lisa didn't like being constrained by Chaldea, so she made a puppet exactly like herself, and then replaced the puppet to become the current Mona Lisa.

Although it is called a Servant, it is different from ordinary Servants. Compared with other Servants, it is more free and willful, and even has the ability to become a Master independently.

"No, my ability is not enough to take two people back and forth. Mona Lisa, I know that you have a certain understanding of the soul, so I hope you can see my situation here clearly, and the performance of the soul will reflect to a certain extent. Physically, please wake me up when necessary." After a pause, Roman continued, "Just slap me hard in the face."

"Don't worry, I will do my best to wake you up!"

I will definitely die in that case, please don't say it with murderous intent when you say this.

Roman turned his head again and said to Joan of Arc: "We will not be able to leave the isolation room when we come down. If it is a problem that needs to be dealt with by leaving the isolation room, I hope you can help us. And your Noble Phantasm, when needed. Please use it in time."

Speaking of which, Roman found that he had overlooked a problem. He didn't know when it was "timely". Although Joan of Arc was a saint, she used to be an illiterate village girl, and the field of magic was really for her. so unfamiliar.

"Don't worry, Roman, the Lord's revelation will guide me, and I can definitely protect you and Lixiang."
