Chapter 14: The Upper Limit of Magical Power
Luo Wei walked on the road, staring at the back of his hand through the afterglow of the street lamp. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Three spike-like red stigmatas were carved into the back of his right hand, pointing in three different directions, and although he didn't know what the meaning of such a pattern was, Luo Wei didn't care.
Spell, I finally have a spell.
When the Immortal summons ended, Rhaenys simply left the words, "I'll admit that you are qualified to assist the Ermelo family." He left in a hurry, probably afraid that he would not be able to help but destroy Luo Wei.
But to be honest, even if Rhaenys did it at that time, it didn't mean that she could do it.
Because there are servants around me.
Rowe, who was fine, also came out of Ermeiro's house and was about to go home, but this trip was obviously a bit far, basically across the entire city of London.
"Master, a demon has followed. ”
The basic skill of the spirit embodiment of the Servant, by hiding the body, not only can prevent it from being discovered by other Servant Masters and ordinary people, but it can also reduce Luo Wei's mana consumption.
And in this state, it will not affect the perception of the servant.
Luo Wei is very glad that the servant has such an ability, otherwise just looking at her seductive figure, I am afraid that half of my mind will be seduced.
"Probably sent by the Ermelo family. "Rhaenys is the kind of person who likes to take everything into her own hands, she didn't care about Rowe before, and now she sent the demon to observe Rowe.
Although this situation should be agreed with the surveillance of the Ermelo family, after all, even if he summons a powerful servant, it is still the Ermelo family who stands on top, if it is out of trust, Luo Wei should agree with the surveillance of the Ermelo family.
"Skaha, destroy it. ”
The sound of bullets flashed in an instant, and in an instant, the watchdog demon was pierced by the spear and thrown into the grass on the side of the road.
The reason why the demon was eliminated was because Rowe still had things that he didn't want the Ermelo family to know, such as the existence of X.
In an instant, the visible servant quickly turned into a spirit after defeating the demon, and such a skillful skill made Luo Wei feel that the legend was indeed not exaggerated.
Skaha, the queen of the Shadow Country, is a genius in spear and rune magic, and she has sealed the entrance to the Shadow Country, which is full of unjust spirits, and has become the gatekeeper there.
She was cursed because she had set foot in the divine realm many times, and gradually became a demigod over the years, with an immortal body.
Legend has it that she is a lonely person who does not submit to anyone's domination, but she still gives happiness to the people and has the temperament of a king.
If she is purely a woman, her posture, figure and face are also the most beautiful existence, and it can be said that Skaha is a combination of all the talents in Celtic mythology, which can be called a perfect existence.
And Luo Wei actually summoned her.
There is no need for others to envy him, he is already secretly happy in secret.
Of course, after becoming the Master, it was a little different from X's time, and a set of data appeared in Luo Wei's mind, which seemed to appear in his mind without him deliberately interpreting it.
Tendon B, Durability A, Agility A, Mana C, Lucky D, Noble Phantasm A+.
This seems to be a numerical value to tell Rovi about the Servant's abilities, but because of the first contact, Rowe doesn't know exactly what these values represent.
"Master. ”
Hearing Skaha's call, Rowe turned his head, even if he couldn't see Rowe, he knew that Skaha was following him now, and now the feeling of master-slave relationship between Rowe and Skaha was more obvious than that between him and X.
Probably this is the result of the call of the Orthodox Heroic Spirit.
"You'd better call me Lancer in the future, I don't know what kind of servant can kill me, but caution is an essential trait for a warrior. ”
The first half of the sentence is extremely normal, and the second half of the year reflects the helplessness of Skaha, who has lived for a long time.
I don't know if any servant can kill me.
According to mythology, Skaha once prayed for someone who could kill her because of her immortal body, and it is said that the reason why she cultivated a large number of disciples was also in the hope that one day one day one of her disciples would appear someone who could kill her.
In every sense of the word, this is the most powerful servant.
"Understood, Lancer, but it's amazing, I didn't think I'd be able to summon a warrior as powerful as you, should I say I was lucky?
Luo Wei thought about this, because it should be impossible to summon such a powerful heroic spirit with his current magic level alone, although the magic power of the dragon vein is very rich, but he feels that the biggest hero is still that holy relic.
"It's not luck, it's not a holy relic. Skaha said slowly, as if teaching a student, "It's your talent, this kind of Heroic Spirit Summoning requires mutual approval from the Servant and the Master before it can be summoned. ”
Needless to say, Luo Wei naturally can't say that he can accept any kind of servant he can summon, because the point is that he can summon a servant, so no matter what kind of servant Luo Wei recognizes.
"That.... What did you approve of me?" Rowe wondered, what was there about him worthy of the approval of that legendary powerful warrior?
"Master, you and I are in a contractual relationship, and I can feel any transformation in your body. There seemed to be a slight smile in Skaha's words, probably because he missed the feeling of not instructing students for a long time.
"You have a thousand magic circuits in your body, and this kind of talent has never existed in my time, and you have more talent than any of my students. ”
In other words, Skaha has a talent for identifying with Rowe as his master.
Besides, the Servant could even perceive such a thing, and Luo Wei had to admire the intelligence of the person who originally created the system of the Holy Grail War.
"Speaking of Lancer, according to legend, you're also good at rune magic, right?" Knowing the strength of your servant should be something that every master must do.
"Rune magic? It's kind of what I'm good at, but I haven't used it in a long time, and it's quicker to just swing my gun than to use something like that. ”
As she spoke, Rowe felt a gust of gunfire blow in front of him, probably because Skaha waved her love gun.
"He is worthy of a legendary warrior, and he actually knows so much. ”
"No, it's just that when the Heroic Spirit appears as a Servant, it will be endowed with the necessary modern knowledge, just like the magic circuit was not called that way in our time. ”
Rowe nodded, understanding what Skaha had said.
"However, Master, your current body is too fragile to support all of your talents, and if you forcibly use it, I am afraid that your life will be in danger. ”
This was the first time Luo Wei had heard of it, and he had never heard of a magician who was too weak to risk his life when using magic.
But Skaha understood this and went on to explain.
"Unlike other people in this era, your talent is the most powerful, although I don't know why everyone seems to be less talented now, but in my time, such things did happen. ”
"The body that is too fragile will not be able to withstand the huge amount of magic flowing into the body, which will eventually lead to the destruction of the veins in the human body, and even cause the person to bleed to death, which is called the upper limit of magic power. ”
Skaha paused, as if sorting out the language.
"Hmm..... Specifically, there are about 200 magic circuits, and although it will not be affected when it is opened for the first time, if it exceeds this limit when used in the future, it will cause damage to the body. ”
Luo Wei probably understood why there is no upper limit of magic power now, because the talent of people now, not to mention two hundred magic circuits, a hundred magic circuits are rare existences, and even the minimum limit cannot be reached, so there is no need to keep this statement.
There are still doubts, though.
"Are you saying that in your time, people were very talented, and there were 200 magic circuits?"
Skaha let out a laugh that sounded pleasant.
"Not really, but there are quite a few, because in your current words, we were faced with some monsters, beasts and legendary monsters, and if we didn't have such skills, we wouldn't have survived for a long time. ”
"But it's really degraded. Skaha seems to be very disdainful of the current mainstream of the world: "I actually pinned my strength on the development of science and technology, and the most powerful thing for human beings is their own flesh and intelligence, and I can't even figure this out, it seems that this world is also moving towards destruction." ”
Rowe didn't really understand this view, because he hadn't lived that long, or he didn't have a subjective sense of how humanity had developed. And isn't the embodiment of wisdom the development of science and technology?
"Does that mean I can use up to two hundred magic circuits now?" Rowe still has a lot of respect for Skaha, after all, he is also one of the warriors he admires when he reads history.
"No, you're going to be lower, about one hundred and twenty. Luo Wei felt an invisible hand on his shoulder: "So for the rest of the time, I will train you well, get ready, Master." ”
"Hmm.... Good. "But worship is one thing, and according to legend, Skaha's way of education may not be affordable for ordinary people.
"S.... Lancer, you don't need to call me Master, you can just call me by my name. He almost didn't notice calling Skaha's real name again, and in fact he was getting less and less used to the title of Master, so it might be more comfortable for people to call themselves by their own name.
"Well, but Rowe, there's something else going on now. ”
"Anything else?" Rowe didn't understand, but Skaha suddenly appeared and threw him aside.
“L..... Lancer?" Rowe didn't know what she was going to do, and felt a burst of heat coming from Skaha's body on his chest, and although he was a heroic spirit, he was no different from a human.
"There are enemies. But instead of stopping on Rowe's panicked face, Skaha's gaze remained fixed on a spot in the dark street.
"Enemy?" Rowe looked at where he had just been, and a charred pit had been carved out, as if lightning had struck the ground.
But what about the sound? I didn't hear it just now.
"It's magic, it's blocking out the sound. Skaha explained, and she got up, then lunged out, spear in hand and stabbing into the darkness.
The sound of metal shattering reached Rowe's ears, and he stood up and looked at where Skaha had pierced.
A metal object was pierced by a red spear, a gear crunched inside, and a robot-like crunch with a machine gun in his hand, and the smoke from the muzzle of the gun seemed to have just been fired.
"Dolls? no.... Is this technology?" Skaha muttered to himself, slowly pulling out the spear and pushing the scrapped robot aside.
"Is this a robot?" Rowe walked over, he hadn't seen anything like it.
"It's true that a humanoid device made of metal is indeed a robot in modern terms, but there is also a magic formation in it, probably something made by a magician somewhere. Skaha dug his hands into the cracks of the robot and with a slam of force, he split the robot's shell in half and took it apart.
Is this called Tendon B?
With a complex internal mechanical structure, Luo Wei couldn't understand how the interlaced gears and shafts made the machine work, but he knew the small magic array painted inside.
"Silent magic array, and magic storage array. ”
"Well, is the offensive magic array here? Skaha dismantled the machine gun, still with his bare hands, and there was a magic circle inside.
"Static Magic Array, how does that produce so much power?" If it were just static electricity, it wouldn't have produced such a power like thunder and lightning.
"It's a decoy, attacking other beings. Skaha left the scrap metal behind, and several clues had already made her judge.
"Bait?" Rowe pondered Skaha's words, it seemed that it could only be someone else or a servant attacking in the shadows, and this robot was the bait that had been placed here beforehand.
"Does that mean the real enemy has run away?" Although the dismantling machine did not take long, it was enough for the enemy to run to places they could not detect.
"Well, Rovi, it seems that this Holy Grail War has a very safe person who is good at sneaking up on sneak attacks from the shadows. ”
"That's a bit of a hassle. Luo Wei nodded, it was really difficult to deal with such an enemy, not to mention that Luo Wei didn't know that in addition to him, Milia and Messeri there were several other masters.
"But the strength is not very good, otherwise there is no need to hide in the shadows and sneak attack, in this case, you can't kill me, don't worry, Luo Wei." ”
Luo Wei smiled, and he was also relieved, he really couldn't imagine the person who could kill Skaha.
