Chapter 979: Prologue to the Beginning and End (5)
ββAD.3273ββ
The next day, as the lead-gray clouds began to shine and the desert hurricane slowly subsided, Ryunosuke beckoned everyone to pack their bags and prepare to go.
Although the westwalker was surprised that the huge castle and the contents could be put away together, he did not take the initiative to ask, and Ryunosuke was too happy not to explain.
If you want to say, Matthew's current treasure is a "city-level treasure", yes, it is a "city-level" rather than a "city-level", [the already distant ideal city] is used to defend or summon a castle is a normal operation, if you don't want to fight that castle, you can also throw it out and smash people, and after smashing it, you can also take another castle with ownership into it - Geronimo expressed strong dissatisfaction with this.
"Where to go first? Of course, I went to 'Ramses II'. β
When Ryunosuke asked Westwalker for advice on a plan of action for the future, she immediately replied without hesitation.
"Huh? It's not impossible, but why? Because he has an eclectic style of acting? Ryunosuke thought for a moment, and then responded.
In fact, with the current conditions of his own small team, the recruitment conditions of the three forces are met, and the only thing that needs to be decided is "who is the ally and who is the enemy", and before the final decision, you can consider scouting all three places.
"His name has 'West' in it, and it is on the 'West' side, and the poor monk is called 'West' Walker." The Westwalker grinned.
ββ¦β¦β
These three completely different languages are the fault of some translation machine, and Ryunosuke glanced at Yard and found that it was turning into a dagger and hiding in Lin Hao's waist to pretend to be dead.
However, this nonsensical reason aside, Ryunosuke did not go to "Camelot" first - because it was not clear whether the "Artoria Pendragon" was a sword or a spear, and what his attitude was towards "King Arthur of the other world", which could be asked by visiting the other two forces.
"Brother, you can go over there," Lin Hao helped the bone kitten mask on his forehead and spoke: "[Grandpa] is very kind." β
How do you feel like you have to recognize a lot of relatives in this world...... Ryunosuke was a little speechless.
Obviously, this is the information provided by the Servant incarnation, and judging from this title, she should not be a small person over there.
"Obviously, because the actions of 'that King Arthur' have gone too far, the 'Alayya' of this world has become a dead horse and a horse doctor. Yard couldn't help but speak up again: "[Forcefully send you two places to go and reasons one after another. γβ
"If that's the case, there's one less reason for me not to 'go' over there." When Ryunosuke heard this, he was a little surprised that "Alayya" would pay attention to him, but he still responded as if he were bargaining.
"[This one-]"
Buzzββ!
Before Yard's words could be finished, a pillar of light soared in the far east direction and pierced the sky, its power tearing even a gap in the thick lead cloud, revealing a dim yellow ray.
In the next moment, a huge spear of light that made people feel their eyes tingle just by looking at it fell diagonally from the gap in the clouds, and then a huge white mushroom cloud rose from its roughly falling point.
Boom Boom!!
It wasn't until a few minutes later that Ryunosuke and the others, who had been shaken by the shaking of the ground, heard the loud explosion and roar.
"Look, you want a reason. Yard said, dangling.
[Rhongomyniad], it's a spear step, yes, but it's a bit too powerful, and what is she trying to do in the clearing?
Ryunosuke looked at the gap that had penetrated the clouds and saw that it was closing at a very high speed.
"[As for the target of this Noble Phantasm......" Yard projected the map again, and enlarged the map to the east near the location of "Camelot".
As the perspective gradually zoomed in, Ryunosuke vaguely saw that there were scattered craters next door, and when he could see the surrounding trees and rocks and other references, he was horrified to find that the smallest of those large pits was as big as the castle that Matthew had made before.
As the screen continues to zoom closer to the "freshest" large hole, Ryunosuke can see that there is a bone mask of the same style as Hayashi Hao, but larger, full of cracks, and almost completely shattered, falling to its edge.
Ryunosuke glanced at Hayashi and noticed that her eyes widened at first, and then she covered her head in fear...... Mask on one side.
Well,My childhood sweetheart seems to have comprehended a lot of cute skills.γ
Squeak - squeak!
The next moment, the image disappeared as abruptly as if the power had been cut off.
"Ah, I don't know who knocked out the satellite. Yard said in chagrin.
It's amazing that satellites from 1,000 years ago can still be used......
"That must be one of Hassan's 'Mountain Warriors'," Ryunosuke shook his head, "We have the incarnation of Koyo here, so it shouldn't be a problem to go there, but it's better to try your luck with Ramses II for now." β
"The poor monk is very much in favor of it." The Westwalker nodded.
ββ[Meteor shoots into the sky again, earth-shattering]ββ
Ryunosuke's first arrival in this world is a barren land of mountains, Gobi and deserts, and there are no living creatures around, whether it is the so-called [Arie Hundred Species] or [Old Humans], and occasionally you can see stone buildings or metal garbage with a certain shape on the side of the road, but you can't judge the original purpose.
The so-called "road" refers to the relatively flat ground with less gravel and convenient for vehicles to travel, that is, the area where intelligent beings are likely to use it as a road - but unfortunately, Ryunosuke and others have not found any traces of other intelligent species passing along the way.
It wasn't until a group of people arrived at the edge of the desert in the west, looking out where there was nothing but undulating sand dunes, that Ryunosuke couldn't find a bulky item suitable for transforming into a vehicle or an animal that could be tamed into a mount with "magic release".
Transform Matthew's castle into a mobile fortress? Even if this can be achieved, time and magic consumption are a problem, not to mention who can drive such a big thing?
"[Why don't we go back and find some scrap iron with a relatively large volume, and splice it for the time being? Yard continued to make a bad idea: "[Anyway, as long as you make it to the pyramid of Ramses II.] γβ
"I think I might consider turning around β wait?" Ryunosuke was in the middle of his sentence when he suddenly saw several large fish made of sand leap into the air on the sand dunes in front of him, and they crossed a parabola in the air like dolphins out of the water, and when they landed on the sand dunes, they also splashed like dolphins in the sea and disappeared.
"[Oh, that's one of the hundred species of Yali's 'sand fish', which is a low-level, silicon-based creature that appears under the influence of radiation, because the body is ordinary sand, and it can't be eaten and has no other use value, so no species will specifically target it, so it's very bold. Yard said.
"Hehe, then this kind of history ends here, because the people who can transform it are here." Ryunosuke pinched his knuckles and walked towards the school of sand fish.
ββββ
"Before, senior, it's too fast-"
Ma Xiu stood on the back of a sand fish and hurried forward, looking like she was surfing in a sea of sand, she held the giant shield in front of her to barely block the wind, but she still couldn't open her eyes to see the road, and Lin Hao, who had Yard on her waist, simply hid behind Ma Xiu and squatted with her head in her hands.
"The poor monk feels that this speed is okay," the westwalker was standing leisurely on the back of a sandfish, just moving his steps back and forth, left and right, and the sandfish under his feet moved left and right like an arm command, leaping back and forth.
"I see the pyramid, do you want to fish early as a courtesy?" Ryunosuke held the golden greatsword upside down in one hand, and looked southwest with the pergola in the other.
Directly ahead, at the end of the Shaping Line, a huge pyramid was revealed, and as Ryunosuke and the others approached, many oases, gardens, and smaller pyramids emerged around it.
From a distance, the low, lead-gray clouds over the desert oasis city were completely dispelled, revealing blue skies and bright sunshine, and if it wasn't a mirage, there was no doubt that Ramses II had mastered the ability to materialize what was inside the "inherent barrier".
"If we are going to do that, we have to at least get to the edge of the oasis, or we will walk there when we are so far away? That etiquette is too much. Matthew said earnestly.
I feel that the Chaldea is a bit biased in terms of knowledge and education...... Ryunosuke looked at Matthew and nodded in agreement.
ββ[Right and wrong, why should you be loyal for a thousand years]ββ
Ryunosuke's plan didn't have time to carry out in the end, as their group was stopped at a distance from the pyramid.
It was a strange sand statue with a lion body, a human face, and a pair of huge wings on its back.
It appears to be at least ten stories tall and more than fifty meters long, making it look like an apartment building that can move on its own.
As Ryunosuke approached the oasis, it jumped out with a bang from under the sand with a gushing "sand spring", stopped in front of Ryunosuke and the others, and roared in a terrible voice: "I'm Barbasβphew, I'm [Sphinx]!" You must answer the right questions to enter the city, or you will be eaten by me! β
This huge roar, Ryunosuke and the others were fine, but those sandfish that were mounts scattered like birds and beasts like mice seeing cats, and one of them that couldn't run turned into sand and scattered on the spot.
"What's the problem?" "Can I just kill you?"
Ryunosuke turned his head to look at the Westwalker, and the two of them had a wide-eyed and small-eyed expression.
"It's a very stupid choice to fight the mighty Sphinx directly," the Sphinx said downwards from the Westwalker's question, "Even if I destroy my body at this moment, I will soon be reborn in the Sand Sea, and everything that can kill me will make me stronger!" β
This guy's famous words after being changed actually reveal such a heroic momentum that is down-to-earth about life and death......
"Please ask for the question." Ryunosuke looked at several of his companions and made sure that none of them wanted to fight directly, and then said to the huge sand sculpture.
"Listen to the question," the Sphinx paused, as if looking at the question, before saying, "Please name in that order 'the official name of the place where the Westwalkers reside,' 'the strong antonym,' and 'the small antonym'." β
What kind of strange title is this? I was ready to answer "people", Ryunosuke inexplicably glanced at the westward traveler next to him, who also didn't quite understand, turned to the Sphinx and said:
"Buddhist temple, weak, big."
γFusrodahοΌ γ
Just as Ryunosuke had just uttered this inexplicable answer, an incomparably strong hurricane blew up in front of him, blowing the Sphinx's originally unusually large sand statue apart and finally disappearing, and even causing a violent whirlpool of sand and dust.
The swirl of sand and dust crashed all the way to the junction of the desert and the "mirage", where it was reshaped into an ancient Egyptian-style gate of sand, and then the entire door rumbled down on its own, revealing a passage to this desert oasis city for Ryunosuke and the others.
"What just happened?" Matthew, who was clearly ready for battle, watched all this in amazement.
"While Ramses II is not reluctant to accept the old humans and the hundred kinds of Arri, at least show strength or wisdom - defeat the Sphinx or guess its riddles correctly, and for now, obviously," Ryunosuke shrugged, "We're escorted." β
ββββ
"Hmm...... I think there's a reason why the world's alayah is so declining. As soon as they entered Oasis City in the desert, a brown-skinned woman dressed in a tropical costume came to guide them, and Ryunosuke commented as he watched the so-called "Ali Baizi" come and go, "Humans are no longer dominant. β
An old human in a dark blue uniform, a wild boar walking upright with engineering glasses, a big man with a crocodile face, a human-faced bird with claws on its hands and feet, a giant crab waving a pair of large pincers that walks sideways, a slime that constantly rolls and can't distinguish between head and face, and a giant mushroom with a smiling face, and a faceless vegetative man whose body is completely composed of vines.
These "Aries", who are not even the same species, live in harmony in this city.
In this regard, the Westwalker's sentence can be summed up as follows: "There are so many monsters! β
"[Although the number of human beings is too small and the living space is also crowded, because the variety of these creatures is too mixed, and the time of birth is also very short, their 'Alayya' has not yet been born, so they are naturally in awe of the 'old rulers' of humans, so Alaya can barely maintain it, and try to summon servants to solve this situation. Yard whispered.
"In that case, since we came on our own, the one who can solve this situation is the 'Westwalker'?" Ryunosuke followed the leader inside the huge golden pagoda: "I don't see anything special about her-"
In the next moment, the Westwalker's surprised voice came from between the pyramid thrones in front of him: "Is Wukong you?!" β
