Chapter 559:
It's David and Erica. They got together. When did it happen?
This is actually not surprising. Although Erica needs to sleep to reduce her mana consumption, sleep doesn't help much. It is understandable to wake up early, but Roman can't figure out what they are talking about.
"Good morning." Although the two ignored him, Roman still showed the necessary greetings.
The two just glanced at Roman, nodded lightly, and then turned back to continue the discussion. David's performance was very bland, but Erica's eyes seemed to be filled with a strange sense of contempt.
... Roman knew that while he was sleeping in his bedroom, David turned and sold him. I only talked about Erica's skills last night, and the two are already discussing it hotly.
It is said that David just promised Roman not to tell Tachibana about his and Erica's outing, but he did not promise that he would not keep Roman's ability to expose Erica's ability a secret.
Miscalculation, miscalculation, David, you really are not a good thing.
The two looked serious, sometimes frowning, sometimes silent, but more often they kept expressing their opinions.
Roman never passed by, and although he only heard a few words, he could still understand what they were discussing.
——David intends to teach Erica his Noble Phantasm.
Noble Phantasm is something that cannot be inherited. It is the crystallization of human beings' prayers for miracles, and it is an illusion. Combined with the legend of the heroic spirit itself, and the praise of human beings, a unique Noble Phantasm is born.
In the sacred annihilation that Erica learned, because of the part about David, it is the power of the "David legend". Using this aspect as an entry point, maybe you can really join the power of David.
Roman has never studied this aspect, so it is better to leave it to these two people to study.
In order to improve the quality of life, Roman had already asked people to prepare ingredients in the kitchen, so he went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone after washing up. About forty minutes later, Roman came out of the kitchen and found that everyone had woken up one after another.
"Good morning, Dad."
"Good morning, Doctor Roman."
"Good morning, Roman."
"Good morning. Huh? What about Black Joan and Black Saber? Why didn't you see them?"
At this time, Black Joan and Black Saber hadn't woken up yet, and what was even more strange was that Roman did not notice that the two were in the villa, but Roman did not notice their movement from beginning to end.
"They woke up earlier and left before you woke up."
"Huh? Is that so?" Roman didn't really notice this, because he felt that he woke up early enough, and Xiang Xiang prepared breakfast for everyone faster, so he didn't pay attention. In Sleep" of Joan of Arc and Black Saber.
"Where did they go? They haven't come back yet." Roman looked out the window worriedly. You must know that these two are not ordinary women. Their characters are as tyrannical as their strength. As long as one is upset, they will take out the things around them. If any guy who does not blink annoys... or even gets close to them, maybe he will lose his life. .
You must know that Roman only promised to restrain the three people yesterday. If there is a murder the next day, Roman will really be ashamed to see Gilgamesh.
"Going to the 'morning exercise' on the Warcraft front, that's what they said."
Morning exercise? This statement is quite accurate. This is a good thing, it shows that they intend to vent their energy on the beasts, which can avoid harming innocent people with their excess energy.
"Lixiang, Matthew, hurry up and brush your teeth, I'm ready. Don't steal it, didn't you agree, brush your teeth first."
Seeing that Lixiang was secretly eating, Roman gently patted her hand away.
"Dad is more and more like an old woman."
Li Xiang complained, and then ran into the bathroom.
When she and Matthew came out, Black Joan and Black Saber also came back from the outside, and their emotions were different. Black Saber walked back with high fighting spirit, while Black Joan looked at Black Saber unwillingly.
Seeing that Saber Hei was in a good mood, Mei Li approached with a smile: "Good morning, Wang, it seems that you are in a good mood today, did something good happen?"
Meili's voice made Saber Hei's good mood instantly disappear, and the look in Meili's eyes was full of disgust, but it didn't affect Meili at all. Rather, she enjoyed Saber's contempt very much.
Breathing suddenly quickened, the skin on the white robe was pale pink, and the legs hidden under the robe were shaking slightly.
Can't you just be normal?
Black Saber glanced at Black Joan of Arc again, and showed a smug smile: "Ah, nothing, just won the game with Black Joan of Arc. We bet on the number of monsters that will be killed within half an hour, I will kill Out of 43, Joan of Arc killed 39. Ha, in fact, there was no need to compete from the beginning, isn't it a matter of course that I would win? It's just that she didn't give up, so I had to show her how powerful I was. "
Black Joan stared at Black Saber with wide eyes: "Don't be too complacent! You are just capturing more Noble Phantasms against the city, you are not stronger than me at all. Damn, you waited until the end to use the treasure. It must have been premeditated."
It turns out that the victory of Black Saber is to occupy the advantage of the Noble Phantasm. Although it is also an anti-city Noble Phantasm, the number of Black Joan of Arc's anti-city Noble Phantasm will not exceed ten, but Black Saber's magic sword is a light cannon. As long as the enemy is in a line, it is easy to get involved. in the light cannon.
"What's in your head? Don't the power of the Noble Phantasm belong to the Heroic Spirit? Or, did you not consider the number of my Noble Phantasm to capture from the beginning? You are not very happy when you use the Noble Phantasm. Right? I never thought that my Noble Phantasm would turn defeat into victory."
Black Saber's various taunts made Black Joan's face even more ugly. Obviously, Black Saber didn't think about Black Saber's Noble Phantasm at all.
Although not at the scene, Roman can already guess the situation at that time. It was probably that Joan of Arc used the Noble Phantasm all the time, and when she was about to win, Black Saber suddenly cleared the field with a cannon, and then reversed the entire match, and she had never thought that Black Saber would use the Noble Phantasm.
Totally overwhelmed.
"So are there any rewards for your games?"
As soon as the words fell, Roman felt a strong killing, and the murderous aura came from Black Joan.
...
After eating and drinking enough, everyone sat comfortably in their chairs to digest their food—except Roman. He had been enduring the murderous aura of Joan of Arc for the past half an hour. The bright morning seemed very cold, and even his body was frozen by the murderous aura, but no one would pity him.
The bet between Joan of Arc and Black Saber is the number of monsters killed in half an hour, and the winner can get the loser's breakfast, and the loser must watch the winner enjoy the delicious food all the way.
In a sense, this is an extremely vicious bet, and only these two "evil" people would think of such a bet.
Roman, who didn't mention which pot, just hit Black Joan's muzzle.
- But it wasn't me who ate your breakfast.
Especially when Hei Saber was eating, she deliberately made it loud, and she didn't care about her image at all with her personality reversal. She even chewed and swallowed the lamb chops without bones, and it seemed that Black Joan was swallowing all the time.
Not to mention Joan of Arc, Roman also felt a big appetite. If it wasn't for Joan of Arc's murderous aura, Roman would have let go of his hands and feet when he opened it.
Although Roman also wanted to give up his share of food, but——
"This is the game you proposed, you must abide by whether you win or lose!"
Your Highness Black Saber, please do not eat while you are talking. Even if you must eat, don't chew so loudly.
All in all, Joan of Arc is self-inflicted.
Not long after breakfast, Gilgamesh's herald appeared, and he told everyone that Gilgamesh had something to ask for.
There was no hesitation, and several people set off immediately. However, Erica planned to stay in the villa, while Black Joan and Black Saber went to the Warcraft front again. This time, Black Joan took the initiative to bring it up. She was very dissatisfied with the result of the match just now.
It's just suffering, Roman feels that he will soon be baptized with murderous intent again.
Enter the palace and see Gilgamesh in the council chamber.
He seems to be in a good mood. Maybe Rika and the others couldn't see it, but Roman could feel it. The most obvious thing was that the atmosphere around Gilgamesh became much more relaxed.
Siduri was also in the palace. She had prepared her specialty honey tea early in the morning and offered a cup to everyone who came. In the end, there were three cups left, which seemed to be prepared for those three people, but unfortunately none of them followed.
It's a pity, if Black Joan comes over, it will definitely be relieved. But Siduri is too kind, you must know that they were making a lot of trouble yesterday.
"Merry, you came back just in time. I thought you would continue to grind for a while, but I didn't expect it to be so fast this time."
"Don't underestimate me like this, I'm still very confident in my outdoor hiking. Wang, you are looking for me in such a hurry, do you have a new task?"
"It's not urgent, let me know the information you collected in Ur City first."
Mei Li told them about the leopard man they encountered on the way to Ur City, and was beaten to death by the leopard man. There is very little content and it doesn't take much time, but the fresh story experience is still immersive.
And Gilgamesh happens to be a person who is very interested in such strange things: "Damn, why does this king insist on staying in Uruk, and you are just leaving for a trip, you can meet such a Interesting thing? Leopard people, and they are also gods. This king has never seen it before. It is decided that you will temporarily stop the work on Ur's side. After this king's work is completed, you can personally go and let this king Meet the Panther Man with your own eyes."
"King, now the 'Three Goddess Alliance' is watching you all the time. If you leave, you will definitely be attacked. If you have an accident, Uruk will really be finished!"
"Siduri, you are really getting bolder, do you think this king will be so easily slaughtered?"
"If you were a warrior half a year ago, of course you would be able to handle it well, but now you are more than one level weaker in combat."
"Although this is true, it really makes people angry."
Gilgamesh was originally a warrior, the bull of the sky, the Humbaba, and the search for fairy grass. Various deeds have shown that Gilgamesh is not a person who can be quiet, so Lixiang's adventure made his heart move.
In the face of Siduri's painstaking persuasion, Gilgamesh could only give up in the end. He was also very aware of the importance of his present, and of course he would not take his anger on Siduri.
"I'll give you an important task now. Fujimaru Rika, Matthew, and Mei Li, this is a very important and dangerous task. This time the city is looking for something, go to Kusa City, and recover the Destiny Clay Tablet."
"Oh, this is an unexpected job, is the Destiny Tablet Market in Kusa?"
Speaking of which, the reason why Mei Li met Lixiang for the first time was that she was entrusted by Gilgamesh to find the tablet of destiny, and happened to meet Lixiang and others who were almost tricked into the forest by Jin Gu. However, it is "just right", Roman has always been skeptical of this coincidence, after all, this coincidence is also a coincidence.
"This king remembered that when he was returning to Uruk from the underworld, he 'saw the future' in Kusa on the way. Which city did this king enter into meditation, and after writing the destiny on the clay tablet, he left. Because he was in meditation So naturally there is no memory before and after. If you don't read it again, you don't know what destiny is."
Li Xiang raised his hand: "What does meditation mean?"
Roman leaned over and explained in a low voice, "It means that I was too sleepy, so I only had time to write things down. After I woke up, I forgot everything, even the fact that I recorded the clay tablet."
"Is this kind of thing common?"
"It's not common in general, who knows what he did in the underworld."
Clairvoyance will not be triggered for no reason, it must be a very important thing to activate on its own, and it is closely related to "self". It's a pity that Gilgamesh, who came back from the underworld, was so tired that he not only forgot where he left the tablet of destiny, but even forgot what he wrote on the tablet of destiny.
PS: I didn't write a word at work today, and I stayed up late to write a chapter, which made me sleepy.
Section 882 Chapter 395 Go to Kusa
Destiny is something that God sends down.
However, the influence of Gilgamesh's resistance to the gods is destined to miss the gift of the gods. The "destiny" he said is actually the future that he sees with clairvoyance.
EX-class clairvoyance, able to see a clear future, of course, most of them are related to themselves. Occasionally, I suddenly learn about the "future" that has nothing to do with me, maybe I think it's useful, so Gilgamesh wrote it on the clay tablet. It was probably because of this randomness that he forgot what was on the tablet, and where he threw the tablet, he didn't remember it until now.
Although it is a clay tablet that records the future, if you don't know how to interpret it, it is just an ordinary clay tablet. Therefore, even if Kusa has been reduced, ordinary people and monsters will not reach the value of the destiny clay tablet, and they will largely be thrown aside. The worst case is probably to be trampled and destroyed by monsters.
Clairvoyance is not trivial, it will not be triggered for no reason. Many times, what you see is trivial, but it is actually closely related to yourself or this era.
"By the way, let's collect information about Ishtar along the way. On the way from Uruk to Kusa, we will pass through several ranches. The rancher mentioned the reports of losses due to Ishtar for several days. Go ask for details."
"Finally, can you finally meet the job of the 'Three Goddess Alliance'?"
I don't know why, but Lixiang has a feeling that the pain has come to an end. During this time in Uruk, I always do some chores, and it feels like a side quest in an rpg game. She clearly knew what the main quest was, but she didn't meet the requirements for opening it.
"Ishtar should be the easiest one to deal with in the 'Three Goddess Alliance'. Of course, it's not just her strength here, the strength of that stupid goddess is undoubtedly the level of the main god. It's just that the woman is too stupid to understand. , so it's easy to deal with. Hahaha, don't you know that human container very well? The human named Tohsaka Rin, right, and Ishtar's degree of adaptation is too strong, they both look the same stupid All in all, you should deal with Ishtar the way you deal with Tohsaka Rin, it's almost the same anyway."
Delusion? I don't know if it was an illusion, but Roman always felt that Gilgamesh's malice towards Tohsaka Rin was no less than Ishtar.
"Don't listen to him, Lixiang, you must be very active when dealing with gods. You have great power, but you don't have a human sense of right and wrong. Gods are a difficult existence for humans to deal with."
If it should be warned, it should be warned. Gilgamesh lives in the age of the gods and will naturally deal with the gods more easily, but Lixiang, who lives in the 21st century, rarely comes into contact with such existences as the gods.
"What's wrong? Lixiang, why are you suddenly staring at me with such suspicious eyes?"
"Dad, you must at least have a little self-consciousness. When you see Ishtar, you are the most active person."
"Huh? Is it?"
"Dad, you completely take Ishtar as Rin Tohsaka, right?"
"It seems like this...Bi, after all, the two of them have exactly the same face. And when I saw the young Tohsaka Patriarch, I couldn't help it...cough, in a word, gods are very troublesome existences."
At the end, Roman's expression returned to seriousness again, but his words had become unconvincing. Anyway, there was already a look of eagerness on Lixiang's face. If she really met Ishtar, she would probably tease Ishtar like Roman.
This father and daughter is simply a virtue.
Cusa was not a city that was invaded by monsters. Half a year ago, Kusa lost contact overnight, and Gilgamesh sent people to Kusa to investigate. This time, of course, there will be no survivors like Ur, and those who went to Kusa to investigate soon returned to Uruk and sent their investigation results.
Kusa fell overnight for unknown reasons, and there was no sign of any attack, but all the citizens of Kusa fell into a deep sleep. They are still breathing, but they can't wake up, just like vegetative people, no matter what means they can't work.
The road from Uruk to Kusa is not too long, a round trip takes about three days, which is closer than Ur. In addition, this section of the road is also very safe, and it is a rare area where monsters do not gather. Occasionally, a few monsters with short eyes crossed the border, but with the ability of Lixiang and others, it was easy to defeat the single monster.
Of course, the trio of Demon God Pillars did not leave. They and Lixiang were never companions, and walking together would only make Lixiang feel uneasy, knowing that they were enemies of life and death in their singularity in the past. In fact, Roman felt that there was no need to be wary of this at all, after all, these three people had been completely turned against.
They were under the control of the King of Magic involuntarily, that's why they attacked the Rika Squad. Among so many people, Erica should be the one who hated the King of Magic the most. After all, it was a hatred that surpassed three thousand years. Erica wanted to eat the King of Magic now, without even spitting out her bones. Roman thought for a moment when Erica bit down that body, that face... and swallowed it, feeling horrified.
Black Saber and Black Joan are boss-level characters with singularity in the past, but that doesn't mean they like to feel enslaved, and no one wants to lose their freedom.
With Mei Li, this court magician can completely "control" Black Saber. Don't look at the relationship between Black Saber and Meili, it seems that they are S and M, but if you take a closer look, you will find that Meili is already Ke Gang's "soft". In addition, this woman has nurtured Arturia from an early age, is it not a trivial matter to play with little girls?
As for Joan of Arc, the control of her body can even be taken away by Joan of Arc, probably the most humiliating one in the trio.
But since they both disliked each other, there was no need to force it. Anyway, both sides hoped that the trio of Demon God Pillars could stay in Uruk, but Rika's gaze made Roman very uncomfortable.
Being able to deal with weird people is an ability that shouldn't be discriminated against, right?
Before entering Kusa, there is one other thing that must be resolved, and that is to clean up the mess in Ishtar.
how to say? It can be described as tragic. These pastures have all been destroyed. If you want to continue to use them, you must invest more in maintenance, but no one can guarantee that after the maintenance, Ishtar will continue to attack the pastures... or definitely Yes, after all, Ishtar is a very willful goddess.
Created what should not be created and destroyed what should not have been destroyed. This is Gilgamesh's assessment of Ishtar.
The pasture has become pitted, and it can be judged at a glance that it is the result of someone constantly bombarding the ground from the sky. The fertile grass has become a mess, and I don't know how long it will take to recover.
