Chapter 462:
Olga Marie exclaimed, "Is that Karna the Karna of Mahabharata?"
"That's right, it's this great hero. If it wasn't for him protecting us, maybe we would have been killed by the mad king."
"Then... who is he?"
"...Lixiang, give me a good supplement of mythology knowledge when you come back, otherwise the knowledge level of the entire Chaldea will be lowered by two levels by you."
Mahabharata is a world-renowned ancient Indian epic. It is not only large in scale and complex in content, but even the famous ancient India has been written into it. It is an encyclopedic epic.
Karna is a character in Mahabharata. "Makobharata" has a long heroic epic, and there are a lot of legends as interludes, among which the big hero "Arjuna" is the core character of "Makobharata", and Karna is the life and death of Arjuna His old enemy is also his half-brother.
Karna is a disciple of another great hero, "Rama". Although he was born in a commoner, his martial arts skills cannot match even Arjuna. However, in the last battle, he was treated unfairly and was finally killed by Arjuna. Zhou Na was killed in a "murder" manner.
Olga Marie doesn't say much, not to mention that the length of "Makobharata" is four times that of "Ramayana", Karna's complex life experience is enough to talk about one day.
"Let's go out and help too." Although the story is very interesting, the story can be heard anytime, but there are not many opportunities to fight. "No matter what, we have to stay here, as if we were taken in by Mrs. Blavatsky. The meet and greet is done."
Lika left the tent with a kind of Servant, and when he arrived in front of the camp, he saw that the battle was unfolding to the white-hot stage.
This is the stage for Karna alone. The guards, who were already exhausted, were no longer useful. Karna broke into the enemy camp alone to fight, and even the mechanical soldiers who followed behind could not keep up. The huge spear can launch a fan-shaped blow with every swing. At this time, there is a vacuum around him, but it is quickly filled with new enemies, but harvesting the lives of these enemies is very important for Karna. Same as mowing the lawn.
Destroying these enemies is not difficult for Lixiang and the others, but it can't be done so easily. Most importantly, the most important thing about this combat mission is that no enemy is allowed to leave, and every enemy who tries to escape from the battlefield will be stabbed to death by Karna at a delicate angle. In order to avoid affecting the enchantment of the camp, Karna had to fight carefully to prevent the aftermath of the battle from leaking out.
"It's coming!"
"I'm ready, senior!"
The four Lixiang joined the battlefield. Under Joan of Arc's suggestion, they did not rush into the enemy line rashly, but chose to "encircle" the enemy army from different angles, continuously compressing the huge battlefield, and finally annihilating them all without leaving a single place.
With the help of Lixiang and others, this unilateral annihilation war ended soon, everyone cheered from the camp, and the newly joined Lixiang received the respected eyes of everyone like a hero.
When he returned to the tent, David's eyes were filled with a hint of dissatisfaction.
Joan of Arc, who discovered this, asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, Mr. David?"
"No, I just found out... Lixiang doesn't seem to have much resistance to killing herself. Don't get me wrong, I don't think it's a bad thing. Killing the enemy is what you should do on the battlefield, but it seems that Some important process was overlooked by us."
Although Lixiang is a person full of violent people, it is true, but as far as David knows, she can't kill people without blinking an eye. Even if I look back at the records of the Roman Singularity, I find that she often beats the enemy. Passed out or disabled mobility, and this change seems to have occurred in a coma some time ago.
"If you want to know, is it okay to ask Lixiang directly?" After a pause, Jeanne continued, "Or you can ask Dr. Roman."
"No, forget it." This is Lao Tzu's granddaughter. When will it be his turn to be busy?
...
"Thank you very much for your help." When seeing Helena again, Lixiang received Helena's sincere thanks.
"You don't need to thank us. Actually, we didn't do anything. Even without us, Karna could have done it."
"Of course, Karna has always been reliable, but if it can be more convenient, who would dislike helping? Karna is not good at words, and I'm here to express my thanks for him."
"No, not really. I just think that if they want to stay here, they have to show their intention to stay here with actions, so that everyone thinks you are a part of this place, otherwise it will always be a guest."
Karna's words sounded mean, or ruthless, and regarded Rika's actions as a formula. Although it sounds like such a thing, it makes people feel uncomfortable.
"By the way, during the battle, we saw a lot of mechanical soldiers. Are these the works of Mrs. Blavatsky?"
"No, this is the work of the leader of the camp."
"Huh? Isn't the camp run by Mrs. Blavatsky now?"
Unexpectedly, the leader of this camp turned out to be someone else. They always thought that Helena was the leader.
"Of course it's not me. I'm just a magician, and I'm not well versed in the affairs of management. The man who runs this place is Thomas Alva Edison."
"Edison?"
"Yes, it's me!"
A burly figure appeared at the door of the tent, and he strode in. He was wearing a blue tights with a red cape behind him. For some reason, his dress felt familiar, it seemed to be the same style as those mechanical soldiers. Of course, these are not important, the most important thing is that this person actually has a lion head!
Chapter 732 Chapter 253: The Servant of the Camp (Part 2)
Yes, on the neck of a giant man is the head of a lion.
"It's amazing. I have seen all the battles just now through the mechanical soldiers. It's really a wonderful battle. It's great that you can join us, because now is the time when we need strong combatants. We have been waiting for you to come. Let me introduce myself, I'm Thomas Alva Edison and the administrator here."
"Edison? Could it be the inventor Edison?"
Saying this name, when looking at the face calling himself "Edison", everyone's face was full of disbelief, as if they were enduring something.
"What's going on? Did Edison become a Servant and be summoned? No, why does a creature appear on Chaldea's instrument, isn't it Edison?"
Olga Marie seemed to have seen something incredible, and her voice had already begun to panic.
"Director, I understand your mood right now, but I think it's better to keep silent at this time."
"How can it be possible to remain silent at such a time? A beast is the one who rules mankind? Edison, the inventor, turned out to be a lion."
"I'm not a lion! I'm just rough!" Edison's voice was very loud, his voice echoed throughout the tent, and those who stood closer felt their ears buzzing, "And I'll lead the way. The United States of America also does not need to be questioned, because I am the President of the United States, regardless of identity or legality, people here should obey my orders."
"That...I understand what the president means, but what is the king of the president? Isn't America a federal country? Why does a king appear?"
It's a term I've never heard of. As the largest federal country in the world, the largest leader in the United States is the president, and the establishment of the president, in a sense, is to prevent the emergence of a centralized figure like the king.
And now that I tell everyone that there is a lion king, it always feels so subtle.
"Actually, this is the meaning of the presidents of the United States. I am ashamed to say that my ability was not enough to be summoned as a Servant. In order to make up for this, the United States strengthened the concept of 'Edison' to allow me to be successfully recruited. Summoned."
"I see what you mean, but...why a lion head?"
"It's not a lion! I just look rough!!! Don't look at me like this, but my wisdom and reason are not affected at all. Look, this muscle is born for invention, as long as you rest for three hours, I can work on the test bed all day."
Saying that, Edison gestured his muscles, as if to convince Lixiang why he had a lion's head, when he was clearly an otaku in a laboratory, but he had muscles comparable to that of a bodybuilder.
It seems as exciting as the Great Soul was to Helena, Edison was also very serious about the lion's head, and when it comes to it, it becomes unreciprocal, probably like "I'm not fat, just plump" or something like that .
That is, self-comfort by covering your eyes.
Going on this topic, I can probably talk about it for a whole day. Lixiang believed that when Edison was trying to convince her, she could repeat the sentence "Why is the lion's head" ten thousand times.
But that's it for the unimportant details, and now the business matters.
...
...
It was too late when Edison was summoned.
He couldn't imagine that this was North America, which had not yet become independent. As far as he knows, North America has always been a rich continent with abundant natural resources, which is also where the post-independence America can develop rapidly.
However, all he saw was a land that represented death.
The fierce sun in the sky makes people feel dizzy, the scorching earth is like a furnace, the water source is almost cut off, people who live here are dying, even the vultures collapsed because of hunger, climbed up the mountain and looked down, but could not see a trace of green of vegetation.
This is destined to be a place where no one can survive.
Edison finally understood why he was being called out.
He is not a qualified Servant. Although he is a famous inventor, he lacks the pioneering achievements of people like Newton and Tesla, even though his invention has entered families all over the world. Edison could not have come to this singularity without the help of successive American presidents.
He knows what he should do. This singularity is no longer suitable for human habitation. Humans alone cannot survive, so simply invent inventions that can help humans survive.
Humans can't farm, so let robots farm.
Humans can't fight, so let the robot soldiers fight.
Humans can't build, so let robots build.
All in all, what Edison has to do is to do everything possible to keep human beings alive in this era until a new turning point emerges.
To this end, he worked almost non-stop, built countless production lines, used solar energy and geothermal energy to produce machines and autonomous robots, and created a city where machines serve humans, an ideal city where humans can avoid death. .
He was proud of his success. Edison lived up to the expectations of successive American presidents. He allowed the singularity of mankind to survive successfully and gave the United States hope of independence. However, his pride was soon shattered, and a wandering king came to the mechanical city and destroyed the entire city with one person.
All the mechanical soldiers were scrapped, the newly built city was also destroyed, and human beings were once again exposed to the land of death. Fortunately, the wandering king did not wantonly kill unarmed human beings, and even dismissed the mechanical soldiers. His goal was obvious from the beginning, which was to build Edison of the mechanical city.
As an inventor who is not good at fighting, even as a Servant, Edison has no resistance at all. On the contrary, he almost lost his mind in anger and wanted to take revenge on the wandering king. There is no doubt that this is self-destruction. If not for being rescued, Edison would have died at that time.
It was Karna who rescued him.
Karna, the hero of "Makobharata", is definitely a super-first-class existence among many heroic spirits, and his combat power is rarely matched with it. However, the wandering king has shown martial skills that are not in vain. Karna's martial arts are well known. Seeing that defeat was about to come, Karna finally chose to retreat, and took Edison to escape from the mechanical city, and even had to give up the humans originally protected by Edison.
This was the first time Edison and Karna met, and it was also the beginning of their escape. They were not chased by wandering kings, but at some point, the North American continent was already full of retro Celtic soldiers.
Then holding a cold weapon, or a knife, or a spear in his hand, he willfully kills any human being he sees on the North American continent, but the weapons of this era cannot cause harm to them. Celtic soldiers are not worth mentioning to Servant, even Edison can solve an army, but they seem not afraid of death, and endlessly, they have been chasing Edison and Karna.
It didn't take long for them to understand why the Celtic soldiers would do such a meaningless thing. At the end of the pursuit, a great hero from Celtic appeared.
A fierce battle broke out between the two sides. Neither the violent hero nor Karna could escape. I thought this battle would lead to a life-and-death ending, but the wandering king appeared at this time.
Under Edison's suggestion, Garna took Edison to flee the battlefield again, letting the wandering king contain the Celtic hero.
In this escape, the two met Helena Blavatsky, and then, with the help of Helena, instead of building a human city, they chose to use the mysterious After hiding his own side, he pulled the still-living human beings scattered all over the place back to the camp step by step, and he has persisted until now.
"That is to say, there are three forces on the North American continent now, right? One belongs to the President, that is, you, to hide for human beings. The other is the Celtic tribe, which is now the largest force in North America. Soldiers have spread all over the country. North America. In the end, the Wandering King... Wait, the Wandering King?"
"That's right." Speaking of the wandering king, Edison's expression became very serious, "In fact, after the camp was settled, Karna made a special trip to find the king, intending to draw the king here, but A fight broke out between the two sides, and Karna eventually returned without success."
Karna also nodded nervously: "Yes, he doesn't seem to be the type to be good at words, and maybe he doesn't want to communicate with other people. He knows my martial arts well, but I can swear I've never met him. But one thing I can be sure of, his purpose is to kill all the Servants in this continent, no, this singularity, because I once questioned him, and he bluntly stated this purpose."
"Kill all the Servants? Is he crazy? Isn't he afraid of being besieged by other heroes?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
For some reason, Edison, Helena, and Karna all fell silent at this time, a sense of powerlessness emanated from them, and their negative emotions made them look a lot more decadent.
The atmosphere where the air has become quiet makes people feel bad, and suddenly, David seems to remember something: "Wait, the powerful spiritual foundation that appeared not long ago, shouldn't it belong to the wandering king? "
"That's right, it's him. When the wandering king pinned down the Celtic mad king, he also burst out with such a powerful spiritual foundation. Now, his spiritual foundation is more than twice as powerful as it was then." Edison's Lion There was deep exhaustion and despair on his head, "This is no longer a force that can be compensated by the number of people. If you attack with all your strength, you can definitely sink the North American continent to the depths of the sea in an instant."
Can such a powerful enemy really be defeated?
"I have never seen such a powerful spiritual foundation. The king had this power when he stopped the mad king from chasing us, but... I'm sorry, because the martial arts were completely seen through, I even tried to free him when he was fully released. I can't see it either." Karna's face was apologetic, and he was defeated without even knowing the details of the enemy, and this great hero was considered disgraced.
Fortunately, the king has not found the location of the camp until now. He doesn't seem to be in a hurry to hunt down the Servants, so that they can survive.
"What are your plans now? Continue to hide here?"
"There is no way out. No matter what happens, the first priority must be to protect the people here. If they all die, everything about the singularity will be irreversible."
"But, even so, everyone's situation is not very good." Matthew recalled the faces of those people he saw just now. Although he is still alive, if his life does not improve, he will soon fall ill, or even live. It's not surprising to starve to death.
"I know what you were worried about, but the problem was solved quickly."
"solved?"
There was a smile on Edison's lion head, a rough face, and an arc of lips, and finally raised his head wildly and opened his mouth: "Yes, my greenhouse is complete! Yes, just today, all the The project has been completed, solar generators, solar coolers... everything is ready, this will be a biosphere isolated from the outside world, where humans can live comfortably. Unless the sun can come down, otherwise we can always be Stay alive, the electricity has flowed through the entire camp, and everyone no longer needs to sweat the **** heat, and it will take as soon as a week for everyone to eat fresh vegetables. Yes, it's all direct current For the credit, everyone followed me and said: DC is the best!!!"
I don't know which nerve was touched, Edison yelled to himself as if he had lost his mind, completely ignoring that the people around him had stretched out his hands to cover his ears. Of course, everyone wouldn't follow him and shout strange slogans for no reason, but they could understand that this was good news. The climate that brings disaster to people tortures people living on the earth. Because the North American continent is currently lacking in resources, it becomes difficult for the remaining human beings to survive. Edison's efforts during this period were to use the hot climate to create a place where humans can also survive. A comfortable living environment.
"Why are you talking so much at this time?!" Lixiang suddenly stretched out and kicked Edison, "Don't take out the air conditioner!"
This life will be given by the air conditioner in the next period of time.
Chapter 733 Chapter 254 The Second Strike
"I'm looking for a godslayer."
When Skaha asked about Magician S's plan, Magician S answered her like this.
It has been prophesied from Steno and Urielle that the most powerful enemy in this singularity is a godslayer, and Magician S has chosen him as his first target.
If the god-killer is really the enemy who can destroy Chaldea, then try to avoid letting Lika meet him, and solve the god-killer problem before that.
If Magician S met other Servants, he might suspect Finn at the first time. After all, Finn killed the fallen ancestor in mythology. However, he has already seen the battle between Skaha and Finn, and Finn's strength has not reached the level of "destroying Chaldea". On the contrary, the powerful Servant who has never met and fought against the Holy Sword of the Stars, The exposed spiritual base is enough to prove his power.
There is no need for suspicion and verification. Magician S can already be sure that he is the enemy predicted by Steno and Uriel.
However, how to defeat such a powerful enemy is also a problem.
When Magician S fell into his thoughts, he suddenly found that Skaha was staring at her, and his indifferent eyes did not know what emotions were hidden.
"You have something to do with me?"
"Of course... wait, are you a godslayer?"
