Chapter 6 The Contest between Later and Predecessor
In an instant, space shifts.
Yes, space.
The previous "Bagua Array" only mobilized the forces of nature, but now it has gone one step further and risen to the level of space.
Stone pillars appeared out of thin air, encircling Perseus and the red-haired boy in the center.
These stone pillars are arranged in a special orientation, making people feel dizzy just by looking at them.
Finally recovered from the dizziness, the red-haired boy in front of him was gone, leaving only a white mist.
Wait, fog?
Where does the fog come from? Why didn't you find out just now?
Damn it!
Perseus knew that he had fallen into the trap of the enemy Caster again, but now was not the time to be upset, and it was imperative that he first sort out his situation and find a way to break the situation in time.
What can be seen so far are stone pillars and mist.
The stone pillar is about two people high, the thickness of the two people together, the hardness is not trivial, and a punch with all his strength can only leave a shallow trace, it seems that it is not advisable to destroy it with violence.
The fog is between the dividing point of the shade and is hazy. This feeling is the most disgusting, as if you can see a little bit of everything, but you can't see anything clearly.
Not only sight, but also hearing, smell and other senses were also quite weakened, which seriously affected Perseus's ability to judge.
Tentatively use wind magic. The technique was successfully constructed, undisturbed as before, and the fog was blown away.
However, in the next second, a new mist appeared near the stone pillar, filling in the lack of mist.
Perseus reconstructs the spell, only to find a more serious problem - the mist absorbs magic silently, and the more magic is cast, the more magic is used, and the more it is sucked away. Even if you don't use magic, you can only slow down, but you can't avoid the loss of mana, after all, the Servant needs to consume mana just to exist.
Magic is the root of the Servant's power and even existence, without magic, the Servant can only be slaughtered by others!
In less than a minute, Perseus's greatest advantage was gone.
What a terrible calculation! What a terrible formation!
Remember it seems to be called "Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers"?
"Eight Stone Formations!! Your real name is Zhuge Kongming!! β
The identity of the middle-aged literati has finally been revealed.
Zhuge Kongming, the prime minister of Shu in the Three Kingdoms era, Zhuge Liang, the most famous military division in the land of China, was described as a clever man, wise and close to demons, and one of the smartest people in that mysterious land.
In this way, what Perseus has suffered so far is reasonable.
Compared with such a great army division, Perseus is not qualified enough.
As for magic (Taoism), according to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Kongming once changed the weather on a large scale in the Battle of Chibi, and is undoubtedly the top magician. Not to mention, he was active not far from the first century AD, and his magic skills are very much in tune with the current environment.
Fighting a magic battle with him, I'm afraid that the strongest magician in the history of Greece may not be able to win, let alone Perseus?
Of course, it's too late to say that now.
Perseus himself knows the importance of hiding his real name, so he has been enduring the useless "snake hunting sickle", how could Zhuge Kongming not know?
Since he dares to expose his real name and use the treasure "Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers", he must be sure to leave Perseus.
"I'm in trouble now, I didn't expect to meet him when I came up."
Perseus leaned his back against the stone pillar and muttered to himself as he cautiously observed his surroundings.
He thought about cracking the "Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers", but how could the ultimate formation of the Great Army Division be so easy to break?
You must know that the "Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers" is a formation set up by Zhuge Kongming in order to block the 100,000 army of Wu, and even Lu Xun, the generalissimo and army division of Eastern Wu, failed to crack it, and was almost trapped in the formation.
The probability of Perseus breaking the formation is lower than the probability of a meteorite falling from the sky and directly smashing the formation.
But he can't break it, it doesn't mean that others can't break it, Perseus is not alone this time, he has a time-space backup team. He had already tried it just now, but the "Eight Stone Soldiers" failed to block the connection between the bracelet and the Chaldeans.
"Is there anyone there?"
Although he didn't know if Zhuge Kongming could see his every move, Perseus still kept his voice down.
"It's always been there, what did you find?" Roman responded immediately.
"I found out that there is, but I don't have time to report it now, I'm trapped by the enemy and need your help."
"Enemies? I see, how can I help? β
"What trapped me was Zhuge Kongming's 'Eight Stone Soldier Formations', do you have any relevant information over there?"
"Zhuge Kongming! How did you end up with him? No, I'll talk about this later...... 'Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers'...... I seem to have read this information, I'll look it up...... Yes, there are indeed records, there are ruins left in Sichuan, China, and many people have done deductions. There is also information on this in the Chaldean database, and I will pass it on, along with the various records of Zhuge Kongming. β
"Please-it's a pity that the current signal is insufficient and doesn't support image synchronization, otherwise you can help me analyze and crack it together."
"yes, I'm getting more and more confused about whether you're lucky or unlucky now."
"Who knows, someone once told me that luck and bad luck are two sides of destiny and cannot be separated."
"The one who said this must be a great sage, well, the information has been passed on, if you have any questions, feel free to ask, and the whole of Chaldea will help you find the answer."
"Well, I'm not going to be polite to you, I'll take a look at the information first."
Perseus said, clicking on the various texts and pictures sent by Roman.
The Eight Arrays are based on the Dry, Zhen, Kan, Gen, Kun, Xun, Li, and Dui Bagua as the core, and the formation of heaven, earth, wind, clouds, dragons, tigers, birds, and snakes, which is compatible with astronomy and geography, and is all-encompassing, and is a rare array in the history of Chinese military and magic.
The heavenly array is sixteen, the earth is sixteen, the wind array is invisible, and the clouds are attached to the groundβ
Seeing this, Perseus already had a headache.
"What's the joke, it's so complicated? I'm afraid that before I can finish reading it, it will already be drained. β
"There is a formation diagram restoration and analysis in the back, you can look at that directly." Roman hurriedly reminded.
"Say it earlier! Well, that makes it much clearer. I should be in the cloud array now, it is a hurdle, and it is a way to survive by following the instructions of the formation diagram. β
I took two tentative steps, and my eyes were really much brighter, and the speed of loss of mana was also much lower.
"Okay, it's right, the formation diagram deduction is correct. In this way, no matter how powerful the predecessors were, the descendants should surpass the predecessors, so that mankind can continue to progress. β
As Perseus said, this battle and even the whole journey of the peculiar point is not only a contest between the servants, but also a contest between the predecessors and the descendants.
Only by surpassing the predecessors can future generations regain the future!
PS: There are really ruins in the Eight Formations of Stone Soldiers, and now it has become a scenic spot, in the Moon World, it must be a precious research map.
