Chapter 349: Invasion of Chaldea
Since the inhibition force was never indicated, and the system was playing dead as always, Lu Xiao could only temporarily follow Merlin and Artoria back to the Star Sea.
At Merlin's strong request, the three of them passed through the space-time tunnel without passing through the transit of the Fairy Lake, and returned directly to the familiar Avalon Tower.
"Artoria! You're finally back! ”
Before she could see the scenery clearly, a woman who was 80% similar to Altoria immediately pounced on her.
After the battle, the magical armor on Artoria had dissipated, and Lu Xiao and Merlin had the privilege of enjoying a Star Wars...... Cough.
Needless to say, standing in the Avalon Tower to greet Morgan, who was hiding in the sea of stars and unwilling to leave.
Anyway, his appearance has been exposed, and Morgan simply no longer wears that black veil.
Except for her pale platinum-blonde hair, her appearance and figure are almost indistinguishable from Artoria's, except that she has the charm of a mature woman more than Artoria in temperament.
Ignoring the game of the two sisters, Lu Xiao first tried to find the coordinates obtained from the Holy Grail.
"I found it, although the coordinates of that special space have fluctuated, but I can barely capture it."
Merlin tossed his staff to a corner of the tower and lazily found a chair to sit down.
"Are you still going to help the Chaldeans in the last battle?"
Lu Xiao shrugged helplessly: "This is my agreement with the restraining force, and the contract will not be until I defeat the magic king Solomon and restore human reason." ”
"Solomon, the King of Magic."
Merlin smiled meaningfully: "There are no outsiders here, so let's be open and honest." ”
"Do you really think it's Solomon himself who is the mastermind?"
Lu Xiao shook his head dryly: "I don't think so, but since he wants to act like this, I don't mind cooperating with him to pretend to the end." ”
Merlin lazily closed his eyes and leaned back on the chaise longue: "Since you already know the inside story, I won't say much, I wish you a smooth trip in advance." ”
"Ha~ I've had a good activity after many years, I want to take a good rest and re-accumulate energy, so you can do it yourself."
Lu Xiao complained speechlessly: "It's been less than a day since your body really left Avalon's activity, how low is the upper limit of your activity energy?" ”
"Snorr~"
Merlin began to snore very fakely, making it clear that he didn't want to talk anymore.
On the other side, Artoria was rejecting Sister Wang's hug, and the two very similar pretty faces were quite pleasing to the eye.
"Huh?!"
Morgan seemed to sense something suddenly, stopped his idiotic behavior, and twitched his nose to smell Altoria's neck and face.
Artoria couldn't stand the itch, pushed Morgan away and asked dissatisfiedly, "What are you doing?" ”
"It smells of a man!"
The dull hair on Morgan's head stood straight like an antenna, and her face became sinister: "I can't be mistaken, this strange magical aura is definitely not yours!" ”
'Hmm~'
Lu Xiao originally planned to rest in Avalon Tower for a while, but it seems that the plan may not go so smoothly.
'Forget it, let's get out of the way. ’
The jewel Weng's notes had improved Lu Xiao's spatial spells a lot, and now he no longer needed to borrow the passage of the Fairy Lake to leave the Star Sea.
Using the traces left by Fujimaru and Matthew, Lu Xiao quietly opened the space-time passage to Chaldea in 2017, and stepped in without waiting for Morgan to react.
"Don't run! You fishy! How dare you defile my Artoria! I won't let you go easily! ”
Lu Xiao, who had already entered the space-time channel, pretended not to hear Morgan's angry roar, and leisurely plucked his ears with his little finger.
"I didn't hear anything, it was just the mosquitoes in Avalon, right?"
……
Prepared by the former director Marisbilly Animsfia, the Chaldea is a magic observatory and research institute built on the Antarctic continent.
Under the call of the former director's philosophy, the Chaldea recruited talents from both the secular and magical worlds, brought together outstanding scholars in various fields, and even had direct links with the United Nations.
In 2016, the Chaldea suffered a drastic change, and together with the new director Olga Marie and the elite of Group A, a large number of staff members were attacked by the crown bomber (fog) Leif Lenor, and the Chaldea suffered heavy losses.
The head of the medical department, Romani Aqiman, was forced to take over the task when the dragons were leaderless, and teamed up with Rika Fujimaru, the last master who had the ability to transfer Reiko, and finally repaired all seven anomalies through countless difficulties and dangers.
However, as long as the mastermind behind the scenes is not defeated for a moment, the crisis hanging over the head of human history will never disappear.
Retrieving the Holy Grail of the Seventh Anomalous, Chaldea finally obtained the exact coordinates leading to the Temple of Crowned Time.
The staff is working overtime to figure out the most stable way to transfer the spirit child as soon as possible.
Fujimaru Rika is just an ordinary person, without a leather body like Lu Xiao who can rampage in an incomplete and stable spatial passage, but if there is a slight deviation, he may be annihilated in the middle of the way to the destination.
"Tick! Backbite! ”
It had been less than a day since Fujimaru and Matthew returned to Chaldea, and the physical and mental exhaustion had not yet been relieved, when a shrill alarm bell suddenly sounded from within Chaldea.
The Chaldean AI also began to send a reminder to the entire Chaldeans: "Warning: Unknown Creatures Invade, Unknown Creatures Invade, please prepare for the enemy." ”
"Countdown to contact with intruders, 30, 29......"
Less than an hour after falling asleep with his long orange hair, the Chaldean alarm woke him from his deep sleep.
Before he had time to tie his hair, Romeni put his white coat on his body and hurried to the combat command center.
"What a situation! Did Solomon invade? ”
The remaining staff in the command center are working hard to stop the unknown intruder who is making his way through space towards Chaldea.
But with the equipment and manpower that followed the great Chaldean catastrophe, the work was almost impossible.
Leonardo da Vinci, who replaced Romeni as the conductor, looked solemn, and she briefly explained the current situation to Romani.
"We don't know where the invaders came from, but judging by the coordinates obtained from the Holy Grail, it should not be Solomon from the Temple of Crowned Time."
Since the start of the anomaly repair program, Romani has slept an average of less than 2 hours a day, and anxiety and worry have flooded his brain.
Roman frantically scratched his messy hair: "Is there a way to stop it?" ”
Leonardo da Vinci shook his head helplessly: "If it was Chaldea before it was destroyed, it should be possible, but ...... As you know, the existing conditions do not allow it. ”
A bespectacled watermelon-headed boy shouted in panic: "There are 8 seconds left for the invaders to enter the Chaldees, 7, 6 ......"
Fujimaru and Matthew also arrived at this time, and Matthew, who was wearing a Chaldean uniform, seemed to be in poor physical condition, and looked a little top-heavy during the run.
But she reluctantly put on the Galahad Concept Armament and set up a large shield in front of the landing site of the intruders that the crew had determined.
Roman and Leonardo da Vinci expected that the invaders who had traveled through time and space to the Chaldea would attack immediately, but the reality was very different.
The two men hiding behind Matthew's shield heard a soft landing sound, followed by a familiar voice.
"Is this the Chaldeans? With so much modern scientific and technological equipment, it is really a bit subtle to say that it is a magic research institution. ”
"This voice ......"
Fujimaru and Mathiu looked at each other in amazement, and at the same time concluded, "Lu Xiao?!" ”
"Hello, Fujimaru and Matthew."
Lu Xiao smiled and waved his hand to the few people who poked their heads out from behind the shield: "Take the liberty of bothering, I'm just here to avoid trouble and promise not to interfere with your work." ”
