Chapter 67: The Lord of Heavenly Movement!
Boomββ!!
The stab of extinction that shattered the atmosphere shattered the entire platform that restrained the brilliance of the holy spear with a direct blow, and almost shattered the entire restraint device and blew it away!
In the deafening loud noise, it was as if in the aftermath of the impact of a missile had been detonated, and countless fragments were like scattered bombs endowed with kinetic energy, splashing out in all directions like a torrential rain!
"Got it!"
A very smooth blow, the Queen of the Shadow Country was immediately happy in her heart, what she was most afraid of was the extinction of the magic spear falling, but the restraint device in the center of this tower did not move at all, so there was really no hope at all...... But it's clearly not that bad.
The "Pillar of Light" that emitted the brilliance of the stars suddenly crumbled and began to become erratic, like a light bulb under unstable voltage, and among the countless shattered fragments that fell like rain, a cloud of colorful brilliant light was also picked out by the Crimson Magic Spear!
It can be seen that even in a hurry, Skaha's gun is so superb, through his own subtle sense of magic power, he directly determines the precise position of the "energy core" under the platform, and at the same time shatters the restraint device with the brazen blow of the magic gun, it is just right to pick it out without damaging it.
Skaha leapt to his feet, leaping into the sound, and appeared right next to the Rainbow of Light, reaching out to grab it.
That's right, this colorful brilliant light should be the energy core of the device that restrains the holy spear and drives the holy lance, and it is also the ultimate goal of the Chaldean group's trip-
Grail.
It's a little strange, but the form really doesn't make any sense, because in the end, it's the magic that is so large that it can distort the times. Even if it is hailed as a universal wish machine, it is just something like "as long as you have money, you can do whatever you want", and it is just the existence of shortening "time".
Craft props, build cities, forge land, and recreate eras......
These things that might have taken countless manpower and time to complete can be completed using huge magical resources to speed up the process to be completed ahead of schedule? Is this the meaning of the Holy Grail? Therefore, the essence is nothing more than a projection from the high-dimensional phase, and it is just a crystallization of a relatively excellent magic resource.
Not necessarily a cup? Rather, the materialized aggregate of magic is its normal form? That's usually what it is like now-
Radiating a rainbow of light, where it crosses? The distortion of space will be obvious, making the air ripple like water waves.
"Matthew!"
Leonardo da Vinci snorted? Matthew quickly reacted? Although she was still devastated by Bedwell's loss, she knew what to do at this time, so she hurried forward to retrieve the Holy Grail.
The shield made of the round table can not only be used as a protective device, but also has the function of containing the Holy Grail. Inside the shield there's a hidden space dedicated to this magic crystal? Can the Holy Grail that is protected in it be well contained? In the past, the Holy Grail in the anomalies was basically recovered through this method.
"Looks a little smoother than expected......" Watching Matthew successfully put the Holy Grail into the shield, Skaha exhaled softly, but did not let his guard down, but stayed by the girl's side? Be vigilant and take a defensive posture.
She didn't believe it would be that simple, and the current situation was likely to be the crown assassin after sending Matthew here? Start pestering with that magician, even if you can't win? The foundation of the crown spirit base can also more or less delay the time, and help himself and others to win this opportunity.
Or was the magician really careless? Teasing? That's why you didn't get rid of Assassin in the first place? Give them a chance here...... But as soon as he senses the problem, he'll definitely take down the killers, kill the Assassins, and return here to deal with them.
And Leonardo da Vinci obviously thought of this, and waved his staff for the first time, and did not tire of his magic power at all, laying layers of magic enchantments around everyone...... It may not be decisive, but as long as it can make a small difference, it will be worth it.
It is very likely that there will be an extremely difficult offensive and defensive battle in the future......
All they have to do is hold on to the Holy Grail, at all costs.
At the same time, the "Pillar of Light" that pierced the heavens and the earth finally disappeared, and the Holy Lance Lengominiade lost its restraint and stable balance, falling to the ground and rolling, it no longer shining, nor radiating the brilliance of the stars, but reverted to a spear in material form.
If you look at the exterior alone, you can't tell that this is the original body of the legendary Frontier Tower.
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
Really! The Chaldeans were now even more convinced of their discovery.
The tower has always played an important role in maintaining a giant ritual, and the Holy Lance is the heart of the ritual, considering its purpose is to sustain the surface of the world......
Therefore, the purpose of this ritual is likely to distort the world, recreate the gods, and nail the surface of the world with the holy spear, maintain the distorted order, common sense, cognitive laws, etc., and finally stabilize it, casting the environment and existence foundation of this special point!
The Holy Grail is the heart of the mana furnace that drives this giant ritual, and as long as it is removed, the ritual that loses the supply of mana will stop, and it will no longer be able to maintain the twisted god generation. The Holy Lance will also dim, and there will no longer be the power to nail and maintain the distorted "world"!
Perhaps this peculiarity is really beyond imagination, completely different from all previous peculiarities, and even so weird that it doesn't look like a peculiar at all. But in any case, logically speaking, the main factor in distorting the era is still the Holy Grail.
Therefore, as long as this huge source of magic power is taken away, the artificially recreated god generation will be terminated; As long as the factors that distort the era are eliminated, the history of the era will quickly begin to repair itself, correcting all the "anomalies" that do not belong to this era.
This is a conclusion deduced from the existing intelligence, which is reasonable, logical, and corresponds to the intelligence clues they currently have, and it is also the only option they can choose at present-
As long as you hold the Holy Grail for a short time, you will be able to achieve victory; As long as it can be persevered, then the whole era will be repaired, and the things that should not exist in this era will be sent away.
On the other hand, Artoria ignored the actions of the Chaldeans, ignoring their attempts to break the Spear's restraints, seize the Holy Grail, and put on a posture as if they were facing the enemy.
Not to mention that this was originally meant to be a reward for them who successfully passed the trial, and now she is in no mood to pay attention to these trivial matters at all.
"Bedwell ......"
She just looked at it with a complicated expression, and returned to the golden sword in her hand, with both remembrance and emotion in her eyes.
It's just that this kind of thing is completely different from before, and finally there is a trace of "human" heat performance, not acting but more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which makes people unquestionable, so it also makes everyone on the other side more convinced that the previous King Arthur or the Lion King is really an abnormal state of complete deification.
Corrupted by divinity, he lost the values that human beings should have.
So you can't communicate, you can't communicate.
And Bedwell's act of sacrificing himself and returning the Holy Sword did indeed play a decisive role. Having regained her memories, she has been liberated, no longer bound by the Holy Lance, and is now truly King Arthur himself...... She had no reason to fight with herself and the others anymore, so she didn't stop the actions of herself and the others just now.
"King Arthur...... You have no reason to continue fighting us now, do you? β
Leonardo da Vinci watched his surroundings vigilantly as he tried to whisper to the slender blonde girl.
Since he is no longer an enemy, it is natural to try to win the strength of the other party. If this legendary king of knights could understand the righteousness and turn to help them Chaldeans, he would be much more sure in the future.
ββ¦β¦ It's not that it's unreasonable, it's that it's not necessary. β
Artoria looked up, glanced in their direction, and was silent for a moment before she saidβ
"But I don't apologize for the previous strife, and I don't think my decision was wrong."
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
"Uh, may I ask what this is...... What do you mean......" Da Vinci was subconsciously relieved because of the first half of the sentence just now, but then he felt that something was not right, and cautiously continued to ask.
The others also subconsciously held their breath, waiting for the king's answer.
"It's come this far, and I can't give up this miracle...... The Camelot is still here! The slender girl who was the knight king responded coldly, this time she didn't deliberately have a cold face, nor did she deliberately suppress her tone, but this is what makes people feel even more chilled.
It seems that compared to the previous knight king, the current girl, who should have returned to normal, has inexplicably become more terrifying, making their hearts feel as if they have been beaten into an icicle.
Instead of a happy ending, Bedwell's return of the Sword only freed her from the Sacred Lance, but not her original thoughts...... Because this was originally an obsession that she couldn't let go of until she died, even if this King Arthur returned to normal, he was still unwilling to give up?
Not as extreme as before, but still unwavering in its own philosophy? Still on the magician's side, fighting to maintain this peculiarity? Da Vinci thought of it for a moment, and felt that his cheeks were sour.
"But you said there was no need to fight us anymore."
At this time, Skaha frowned tightly, and took another step closer to Mathieu, who was firmly holding the cross-shield, and protected the latter behind him-
"We will never hand over the Holy Grail......"
"The Holy Grail? Whatever you want, I don't care about that. The blond-haired girl glanced in Matthew's direction, then withdrew her gaze, "Do you think that the Holy Grail is the source of everything?" β
"Isn't it?"
Matthew looked very surprised, he waited for life and death, and finally saw the hope of victory by bypassing that magician, but now he was denied by the king of knights?
"Of course not, the Holy Grail is just a source of magic used to power the Holy Spear, but it is mainly for convenience, and it is the same without the Holy Grail...... "Artoria, who was in a bad mood, said coldly, "If you only think that taking away the Holy Grail is a victory, it will be too ridiculous." β
"This ......"
Matthew suddenly looked in the direction of Leonardo da Vinci and Skaha.
"Don't listen to her! She's trying to make us let our guard down, and I can tell...... The planes of this peculiar point have begun to form chaotic. β
Skaha shook her head and looked at Artoria calmly and vigilantly, this knight king is also in danger now, the power of the holy spear may be reduced for the time being, but the holy sword is also back in her hand, and one increase and one decrease is equal to no weakening.
"The fact that the era that should not exist, and the "anomalies" that are incompatible with the entire history of mankind, are being eliminated and corrected by the repair power of human reason itself, which shows that our inference is correct!"
This proves that the great magic ritual in this tower has been destroyed!
Whether it's the ritual effect of the Twisted Era, the Sacred Lance device that stabilizes the Twist, or the source of magic that powers it all, it has all been dismantled from critical points! Therefore, Skaha did not believe Artoria's claims at all, and took it for granted that the knight king was unwilling to give up her obsession.
That's why he used such a ridiculous statement to try to disintegrate the vigilance of himself and others, waiting for an opportunity to seize the Holy Grail.
After hearing Miss Skaha's explanation, the Chaldeans and the others felt that it made sense, and they all immediately regained their vigilance, and looked at Artoria who had become "uneasy and kind" in their eyes.
"Didn't I say that your ideas are completely wrong, and what I said was that the use of the Holy Grail was mainly for convenience, wasn't that clear enough?"
The Knight King was not angry, but glanced at them with great pity: "The concentration of magic power in the atmosphere has not changed at all, which is enough to prove it!" The Holy Grail is only the source of the magic of the Holy Spear, not the source of the magic of this god generation, which makes the Great Source overflow, and the world is full of aura and mystery, and the source is not this at all! β
"This ......"
"It seems to be true, the density of the magic in the air has not decreased......"
Leonardo da Vinci also discovered that something was wrong, and since this peculiarity was collapsing, as Miss Skaha said, everything that did not belong to this era would be corrected, and history would return to its original appearance as if the surface of the water had returned to calmβ
So shouldn't the first thing to be affected be the ubiquitous magical environment of this era?
The times are disturbing, the distortion of human reason is being repaired, and the history that should not exist is being restored...... Even these conceptual things have obviously changed, so theoretically speaking, the aether in the atmosphere should dissipate like a cloud as quickly as possible!
However, judging from the fluctuations of magic power she felt, although the chaos was stirring, there was no sign of decay and dissipation, which seemed to indeed prove the Knight King's statement that the real source was not the Holy Grail?
"So what?" Skaha also changed color slightly, but still insisted on his opinion, "Even if the source is not this, the ritual is still destroyed, and when this peculiarity completely collapses, everything will still return to dust, and dust will return to dust!" β
"It seems that you still don't understand...... The true meaning of that technique. Artoria shook her head, "It's the Heavenly Movement. β
"Tiandong said?" Fujimaru Rika was a little confused.
"In human cognition, the earth or the earth is the center of the world, and there are nine equidistant heavenly planes beyond the earth, and the order from the inside to the outside is the lunar sky, the Mercury sky, the Venus day, the solar day, the Martian day, the Jupiter day, the Saturn day, the sidereal day, and the prime power day......"
As if he understood something in an instant, Leonardo da Vinci's face turned pale, as if he was muttering to himself, as if he was explaining to Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"And the Supreme Creator is the one who moves the stellar celestial planes and drives the movement of all the celestial planes, which is the first cause, the driving force that drives the movement of the earthly world, and the explanation for the operation of the whole world......"
"That's right, and in this technique, he plays the role of this first cause......
Artoria nodded, she didn't say who "he" meant, but everyone knew who she was talking about-
"Whether it is the point of view, or the power and the person, in this technique, he is at the highest level of this worldview...... The driving force behind everything is him, he can take the initiative to create this world, and naturally it is impossible to say that he can't even repair it! β
"On the contrary, if you can't really solve the source, you can't do anything at all! Nothing can be changed! Because if he can perform this technique once, he can perform it a second time, and the third time, no matter how many times you destroy the surface of the water, it is a meaningless act! β
ββ¦β¦β
ββ¦β¦β
The calm voice and cold words were like thunder, resounding in the minds of Chaldea and the others, splitting their thoughts into a blank.
And the Knight King, who had said so much in one breath, was aware of it at this time, and she looked up at the top of the dome, the space where the pillar of light that was originally the holy spear penetrated out, and now she could clearly see the sky and the atmosphere.
"Here we go...... Look at it, he didn't stop you because he didn't have to. β
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌβ
Everyone looked up almost subconsciously, and in an instant, Skaha's pupils, who had high-level clairvoyance, shrank suddenly.
Others didn't have that kind of vision, but even Fujimaru Rika felt a great shock and impact in an instant, no less terrible than the one who faced the Killing House Prayer Famine not long ago, and there were bursts of dizziness in the depths of her head, impacting her reason.
She may not be able to fully understand what Artoria and Leonardo da Vinci said just now, but at this moment, she thoroughly understands what the first cause is, what is the driving force that drives the world - the so-called heavens are the glory of the Creator, and the heavens are the great cause of God's hand!
The sky was getting darker, and the sun seemed to be obscured by something.
The silhouette of a distinct shadow stretches across the sky, faintly recognising the shape of a giant palm...... Not just them, but almost the whole world, all the people who belong to this era, can see it!
It was as if there was an incomparably huge demon god in the universe who gently stretched out his hand towards the earth, wanting to grab the entire planet in one fell swoop......
The magician, who was in the heavenly layer where the technique had not completely collapsed and still maintained the prime mover, gently reached out and took the concept of the planet into his palm, taking time away.
