Chapter 191: Summoning a Ball (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
(Orz, went to the hospital in the afternoon to check it up...... Scapulohumeral periarthritis...... The right shoulder is all kinds of waste, and it hurts to death if you move it...... But I thought that I would eat the northwest wind without code words...... I could only stick a sticker and a hot water bottle, and continue to sit in front of the computer to code words, and the doctor warned me not to use the computer to play with my phone for a week...... Anyway, I'm really injured...... So let's get some commuter pass support...... οΌ
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
I said...... Rocky, I'm jealous of you like this......" Shinonoshu said very depressedly, obviously she was already there, and she was still thinking about summoning Artoria out, which was quite unfavorable to her in the girls' private "battle for the main palace".
"Jealous? I'm just giving it a try. Rocky comforted, and then looked at the other girls, "Do you want to come along?" β
"What for?" God Cracked Fire Weave asked suspiciously.
"I'm going to do magic." Rocky said with a smile.
"Shouldn't we rush to London now?" Everyone looked at Rocky suspiciously, obviously not understanding what Rocky was going to do.
But the bundle of Shinohunoo, who has spent time in the Supreme Game World, is very clear.
Rocky seems to be a "Heroic Summoner" in the midst of the "Holy Grail War".
It's just that, how to complain...... Even if this world seems to be the product of some moon world, the Holy Grail War is a unique system, and it seems similar to a specially designed game, but if Rocky wants to perform the "Heroic Spirit Summoning", there is no way to do it.
Or does Rocky have other ideas?
"It's already such a mess anyway. I guess it's not bad for a few minutes. Rocky said with a smile, to be honest. If he could, Rocky would like to turn London into a "sea of zombies" again. So he wasn't in a hurry at all.
"Are you really serious about coming over to help?" Divine Cracker Weave had a puzzled expression, completely unaware of what Rocky was trying to do.
She doesn't have anyone in particular to save in the UK now, so it shouldn't be a problem to follow Rocky.
"Let's go into that castle, then." Rocky said with a smile, and in a blink of an eye he and the girls were on the outskirts of the castle.
Judging by the huge wooden billboard at the entrance, it was indeed named "King Arthurian Museum", but the word "Glaston Fort" was written after the name.
"Gladstone Castle?" Rocky frowned slightly, but he had heard Artoria mention it. When she was in King Arthur's dungeon before, her castle was probably the current "Gladstone" area, so it's no wonder that Rocky felt a little familiar before.
It's no wonder that Lancelot's sword can be found here.
However, King Arthur and the current British royal family are not of the same blood at all, Artoria is a Celtic, and the current British royal family is a Saxon, for Artoria, the relationship between the current British royal family and her is even hostile, because this group of Saxons is what Artoria calls enemies on the other side of the sea.
"It's settled." Soon. The Warden came to Rocky's side and said respectfully that she had just dealt with a few more reinforcements of the policemen and knights in a short time.
Although the ordinary knights of the knightly faction are much more powerful than the soldiers, they can even deal with firearms with their bare hands. But for the housekeeper who has been completely zombieized and his strength has reached a higher level, they are completely inadequate.
"Hmm. There doesn't seem to be any one in the castle anymore, so let's go in and have a look. Rocky said with a smile. Then I walked into the castle.
But when he walked into the castle, Rocky didn't know how to complain. Because the portrait of King Arthur in the castle is actually Artoria's.
"Reimu, you come out and explain it to me." Rocky said to Reimu speechlessly.
"Ahem, ahem...... This is the case...... I'll escalate, it's a mutation point in this copy, so ...... You don't have to worry too much about it, of course, if you find this mutation point, the system will have an additional reward. "Reimu is also very embarrassed, it should be said that there are various forms of Honkai, and there are not many intact copies now, and most of the copies have increased this kind of situation that makes people laugh and cry.
"Rocky...... It's the Sword of Victory of the Oath, right? At this point, Shinohunosaki pointed to a platform, the entire castle had apparently been transformed, and the hall had been completely transformed into an exhibition hall with various Arthurian exhibits, accompanied by textual explanations.
And now, in a more prominent position, there is a sword that is exactly the same as the Sword of Victory of the Oath.
"This is an imitation." Rocky shook his head, although it was beautifully made, it was only a beautiful replica, and it was written on the side, "Lost, this is an item reproduced from a legendary document".
In other words, the Sword of Victory of the Oath of this world has no idea where it is, but to Rocky's surprise, another imitation is the unrepentant Lake Light paired with Avalon, which does not have "lost" written on it, and seems to have some genuine product.
However, the two swords are put together, which makes Rocky want to complain, at this time, it should be said that Artoria and Lancelot are also "good friends for life, love and kill each other, are they happy?" β
Of course, there is still no Avalon here, because in all legends, Avalon was lost by King Arthur, thus becoming the beginning of the tragedy of Arthur's life.
However, in addition to Artoria's portrait, Rocky did see Lancelot's portrait and Gnavel's portrait.
In King Arthur's copy before, because he did not attack the castle, Rocky had no way to see the beauty of the queen, but now it seems that the girl in the portrait is graceful and luxurious, and it is very stunning at a glance, even if it is just the portrait, it is almost the most beautiful blonde beauty Rocky has ever seen.
If you compare the various amazing beauties that Rocky has seen, Gnavier's appearance is not inferior to that of an angel like Eliza.
To be honest, Rocky thinks that even if Artoria is a girl, for such a wife. There will still be a feeling of pity, and it's no wonder that Lancelot can't hold it. Even he, the demon king, has already had the idea of taking it for himself. It should be said that this woman is born with a charm that makes all men fall in love with her.
"Rocky...... You can't walk when you see the portrait, do you? Seeing that Rocky was a little obsessed with the girl in the portrait, Sigurn was very jealous and said, although she was ashamed of herself as inferior to the woman in the portrait, but it should be said that she was a living person, and the other party was just a painting, compared to her, she was the best, right?
"It's just that it feels familiar, maybe I'll know her." Rocky said with a smile. Then he opened his see-through glasses and looked down at the castle.
Sure enough, there was a huge cellar beneath the castle, and although it was not a cell for the prisoners, it was a treasure trove that had been built long ago.
And this treasure trove has now apparently been turned into a place for this museum to house genuine objects.
"It's time to go down and look for the real thing." Rocky said seriously, and then with a "boom" punch, it smashed on the floor.
"Click...... Click...... Rumble!! Soon, after a few cracks in the marble floor, it completely collapsed, forming a large hole. And underneath the big hole was an empty place.
"Plopβ"
In the blink of an eye, Rocky had jumped into the cave with Floran, who was "glued to himself", and came to the bottom, but it should be said that this warehouse was in a warehouse with a large number of artifacts excavated during the Arthurian period. There seemed to be nothing particularly capable of catching his attention.
The only thing that felt a little was a rusty sword lying in a wooden box.
"Could this be the lake without regrets?" Rocky couldn't help but complain, and his right hand passed through the wooden box and grasped the sword. Then he drew the sword out entirely.
"Clickββ! "Clank...... "But to Rocky's utterance, the rusty sword had just been drawn. It was directly split in half, and the tip of the sword fell to the ground.
"What kind of inhuman treatment has this sword suffered......" Rocky couldn't help but spit out. Although it is a rusty sword, thanks to the detection ability of the guΓ² system, Rocky has indeed earned a name called "Rusty Lake without Regrets".
The rusty lake without regrets
It is also a sword entrusted to humans by the spirit of the lake. Possessing the same origin, its tenacity rivals that of the Sword of Victory, which is engraved with elven scripts on its body, and is characterized by an indestructible blade that shines like a lake under the moon.
However, since Lancelot had used this sword to kill the Knights of the Round Table, he was disqualified from the Holy Sword and was classified as a magic sword.
And because of the curse, the ability to never be destroyed has been destroyed.
"How do I complain? The blade that will never be destroyed is now broken in two......" Rocky looked at the unrepentant lake in his hand, very speechless, but this one in his hand should be genuine, but the destruction is too strict, and it can no longer show its former glory.
However, the title of "magic sword" in the introduction is the reason why Rocky often uses the middle two forces to condense this sword, because Rocky has not personally experienced other weapons named "magic sword", and the bunch of magic sword Rocky in the system can only imitate their appearance, but cannot imitate their abilities.
Only this "lake without regrets", Rocky can simulate its permanent attributes, and even improve his own combat a little.
But if he has a genuine "Lake Light Without Regrets", this sword's ability to raise all attributes to a notch is superb!
I just don't know if this "lake of no regrets" can be repaired.
"Puff - Puff ββ......"
In an instant, the girls above also jumped into the cellar one after another, and of course, this time, Thor casually released a small magic of thunder and lightning, which lit up the entire underground warehouse at once.
"Uh...... What the hell is this? However, after the warehouse was lit up all of a sudden, everyone saw a lot of strange symbols and traces on the walls, of course, these traces can be said to be quite old, and they seem to have been stored for hundreds of years.
"Isn't this normal?" Rocky is very calm, after all, King Arthur's time is at least a thousand years ago, and after that, this castle has changed hands several times, and in this magical country, it is completely strange to have all kinds of strange symbols in the basement.
"Wait...... This symbol...... It seems to be some kind of summoning ritual ......," Sigurn said suddenly.
"Summoning ritual?" Rocky made an unexpected sound, and in an instant, he crushed all the surrounding collections. Then the full wall was revealed, and it was for Sigern to decipher.
"That's enough...... "Shinonobune on the side covered his head. Could it be that even the Holy Grail War will be thrown into this world as a whole? Enough of the supreme game world!
"That's right...... It's a ritual to summon the spirits of the ancients......," Sigurn nodded.
"Do you want to summon King Arthur?" Rocky gave a surprised look. Does it mean that even if you don't need the Holy Grail War, you can still do the summoning of the Heroic Spirit here?
To be honest, he originally just wanted to come and see and try to summon Artoria by the way, but he didn't expect that there was really a ceremony to summon heroic spirits here! And most likely to summon King Arthur! After all, in King Arthur's castle, if you don't summon King Arthur, do you still have to summon Gnavel or Lancelot?
"No, no, no......" but at this time. Sigurn shook his head, "It seems to summon Merlin, the strongest great magician in British legend...... But look at the notes...... Seems to have failed...... It's just that this summoning ritual seems to summon all kinds of legendary characters, but it doesn't seem to know what went wrong, so it always fails......"
"Failed? So are there any steps? Rocky continued, it seemed that there was something missing to succeed in summoning, but it didn't seem impossible.
"The steps are simple, draw the formation. The sacrifice must be related to the Immortal, and then attach your own blood to make a contract with the Immortal. Then chant the summoned spell, and finally, if successful, the Heroic Spirit will appear. Sigurn said with a frown. Although it is an ancient script, it is not much pressure for her. She can't do it in combat, but in support. But one of the best of the troublemakers, and this is the main reason why she can be a full member, some texts, even Eutinus, need her to translate.
"This ...... It's subtly different from the situation of the Holy Grail War......" Rocky said with a smile, "So what's the formation?" β
"There is no mention of any clues...... Sigurne said helplessly, and there were traces of grinding on the ground, as if it had been deliberately erased.
"Rocky...... I build yì you don't summon here...... Something strange might come out......" Shinonoshu said with a frown, and for some reason, she had some bad premonitions.
"Ah...... I think I've been here before! Suddenly, Floran, who had been glued to Rocky's side, suddenly said in surprise.
"Been here?" Rocky was a little surprised.
"Hmm...... Probably during the witch trial, I was locked up here, and I remember that there was a pattern here! I was placed in the middle of it, surrounded by a group of people, and then some ritual was performed. Floran said, pointing to the grinding marks on the ground.
"Really? Is it a summoning ritual? "Rocky was a little surprised, should I say that I was really lucky this time? The people who brought it can be of any use in this regard.
"So, can you reproduce the pattern?" Rocky immediately asked, after all, he wasn't sure if it was the magic array of the Holy Grail War, so Rocky felt that it was better to respect this world, and for Rocky, if it was the summoner of the Holy Grail War, the blood spirit would be perfect to remember, and it only took a second for Rocky to redraw that summoning array.
"Yes!" Floran nodded earnestly.
"Then you can draw it with my blood." Rocky said with a smile, and then separated a ball of blood spirit from his body and placed it on Floran's hand.
After getting the materials, Floran left Rocky's body for the first time, and then lay on the ground, painting with her fingers in the blood.
"So, what about the spell? Is it documented above? Lodge continued to ask Sigourn.
"There are some records, but they don't seem to be very complete." Sigurn replied.
"Well, let's translate it first." Rocky said earnestly, and then looked at Thor again.
"By the way, Thor, do you have a way to contact Marianne?" Lodge asked earnestly.
Marianne's words...... It's not hard to call her over, but what's your business? Thor thought for a moment, but wasn't sure what Rocky was trying to do.
"Show her something good." Rocky said with a smile, then swung the sword in his hand that had been broken in half.
"Uh...... That's what you're talking about? Thor was speechless for a moment, he couldn't see the use of this half-rusted sword.
"Weapons made by elves, I think she, a black gnome, is very interested. And it's been a long time. She still owes me a set of clothes. Rocky said with a smile.
"Hmm...... I don't know if she'd like to come over, so I'll go out first. Thor thought for a moment. said seriously, and then quickly jumped out of the hole.
"Rocky...... I've probably translated it. Soon, Sigern's translation was complete.
"Hmm." Rocky nodded, Floran seemed to be almost finished, but this summoning formation, Rocky felt really familiar.
"I'll tell you what I've translated, and I'll announce it...... My life is ...... Surrender to the nature of the world, follow this will, follow this reason, and follow this reason! I swear that I am ...... forever. β¦β¦ Evildoers, thou shalt be the protectors of the three great words and spirits, and the wheel of restraint has descended here......" Sigurn said intermittently, obviously lacking a lot.
"That's probably it, I don't know if this girl has a clue about the spell."
"Before, there weren't any of these things on the walls." Floran immediately replied, it seems, after being instilled with knowledge by the Bundle of Silk, Floran is much more dexterous than before.
This made Rocky suddenly feel that the same method would be helpful to her if it was used on the blood spirit's body? Rocky always felt that Floran seemed to have some subtle resemblance to the Blood Spirit. I don't know if it's related, after all, if you want to talk about immortality, blood spirits also have a similar nature, of course. He, the demon king, doesn't have such a thing as an immortal and immortal body for the time being.
"Isn't this the summoning text of the Holy Grail War?" Rocky was speechless for a while, but when he listened carefully, it seemed to be somewhat different from the text of the Holy Grail War.
"So...... Rocky. I suspect something strange will be summoned, which is not indifferent from the spell called for the Holy Grail War. Shinonoshu said helplessly on the side.
"So to speak. I'm just going to try if something weird comes to my senses. I don't care. Rocky said with a wicked grin.
"You're really irresponsible...... "Shinobungi said helplessly, but since it was Rocky's decision, there was no way to change it from the beginning.
"That's it!" Floran stood up from the ground and stuck to Rocky's body again, and by this time, the summoning formation had been drawn on the ground.
"Ninety percent of the ...... are alike," Rocky recalled the memories he shared with the Blood Spirit, confirming that this formation was ninety percent similar to the previous one in "FATE/ZERO", and that Floran's physique meant that her memory would not go wrong.
I don't know if it's because of piracy, or what's the relationship, everyone else has failed, so let's let him, the demon king, gamble.
"Floran, you go to the side first." Rocky said seriously, and hearing Rocky say this, all the girls took a few steps back.
"Rocky, spell ......" Sigurn asked with some concern, the biggest problem now should be spells.
"I have a version here." Rocky laughed and said, "I just wanted to try it." β
"Huh? Where are you from? Sigurn looked surprised.
"You'll find out later." Rocky said with a smile that if the God Cracker wasn't here, he would have infected Sigurn a long time ago.
As he spoke, Rocky thought for a moment and pulled out a pair of pink pants from the storage ring, which were decorated with bows on both sides.
"Hey...... Whose underwear is this......" Huang Quanchuan Aiho was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked, is it a crime to hold a girl's underwear like this?
"Well...... Don't worry about the details. Rocky said with a smile that he had been prepared for the previous "FATE/ZERO" situation, and almost every girl's pants were put in the storage space.
Although it was for the purpose of the mission, but thinking of the strange expressions of the girls when they asked for it before, Rocky sighed, all of them were old husbands and wives...... Don't care so much, he won't take it and won't sell it, although, if it can really be sold, Rocky thinks that things like "Saber's original underwear", "Kaji's underwear" or something, it seems that they will fetch a high price, and it seems to be a new way to get rich.
"You're really bad...... "Shinoshu said helplessly, she also has a pair of treasured panties in Rocky's hand, thinking of this, even if she is a hidden boss, her face unconsciously turned red, who knows what evil things Rocky will do to their underwear when she is alone!
"Announce! Thou shalt be at my side! β
In an instant, after placing the sacrifice, Rocky directly skipped the so-called process of sprinkling blood and directly began to chant, with his experience, this is a step to summon problems, and even if blood is needed, the magic array drawn directly with blood spirits seems to have no other additional things at all.
"Whoopββ!
The moment he chanted, the summoning formation emitted a red glow.
"It really works!?" Everyone was surprised, but for Rocky, he seemed to have seen through it, which was what he expected.
"My life is tied to your sword, surrendered to the foundation of the world, according to this will, according to this reason! I swear that I am the one who will do good forever, the one who will do evil forever, the guardian of the three great words and spirits, who will descend here from the wheel of restraint, the guardian of the scales! β
With Rocky's summoning, countless strong winds erupted from the formation, the quality was unprecedentedly high, almost blowing all the girls away, and then I felt that under the ground, it seemed that the whole earth seemed to be in a violent tremor.
"This power...... It's so powerful...... "It's not just Rocky's side that feels powerful, but the strong people in Britain are also suddenly aware of this terrifying aura.
It was as if the whole of Britain would be ruined if it came.
"You...... What are you...... What is being called! At this time, Ivas behind Rocky also made a surprised sound, this Rocky is really amazing, and has surprised her again and again, she can feel that if Rocky successfully summons this thing, the whole world will fall into the hands of him, the demon king.
ββ¦β¦β
But suddenly, all the light disappeared completely, and a system prompt sounded in Rocky's ears.
"Ding Dong, the way of summoning is wrong, you can't summon the goddess."
"Ah...... Got it wrong...... He actually took out the goddess's pants......" Rocky was speechless for a while, he almost summoned the goddess just now?
No wonder it feels strange, but from this point of view, this "goddess's pants" seems to be a terrible thing, but he heard the surprised voice of Ivas behind him with a hint of horror, that is to say, the key prop in Rocky's hand to summon the goddess seems to be able to summon a real god! And not a demon god like Otinus!
"Just now...... What the hell is going on...... I feel like something terrifying is coming out......" Kamizuri asked the girls beside her, frowning.
"This ...... We don't know ...... either" Huang Quanchuan Aiho was speechless for a while, and could only say that her man was really an incredible guy, and that supreme game world seemed to be too powerful, and it seemed that she would never be bored for the rest of her life!
"Do it all over again! That's right this time......" Rocky said a little speechlessly, although it is also a pair of pink panties, but the bow of this panty is still a little different from the "goddess's panty pants", no wonder he will be mistaken, but I didn't expect that Artoria actually chose such a girlish panties, is this King Arthur's heart still a girl?
"Announce! Thou shalt be at my side! β
In an instant, Rocky began to chant again, and as before, the formation once again radiated light, and there was no problem due to the failure of the previous summoning.
"My life is tied to your sword, surrendered to the foundation of the world, according to this will, according to this reason! I swear that I am the one who will do good forever, the one who will do evil forever, the guardian of the three great words and spirits, who will descend here from the wheel of restraint, the guardian of the scales! β
"Brush ββ!" This time, with a strong white light that blinded everyone's eyes, a huge force erupted from the formation, and then something appeared.
"Summon a ball!"
"Summon a ball?"
But then it ...... The expected Artoria did not appear, and everyone looked at the object in the center of the summoning array in surprise, it was actually a brown ball!? (To be continued......)
