Chapter 380: A Gift Spanning Thousands of Years

"Zheng Shu!"

Boom!

With a clear shout of surprise, the figure crashed straight into Zheng Shu's body, and then hung on his body like a sloth.

"Ahhh You bastard! I just ran away! I'm! ”

Medea hugged Zheng Shu tightly, her body kept chrysalis, looking like she was going to strangle him alive with her own arms, and she didn't care about her fiery figure and Zheng Shu's sticking to each other.

Zheng Shu stood in place, Medea's impact did not cause his body to shake in the slightest.

With his current physical fitness, even if a huge rock falls, it is impossible to smash him, not to mention that Medea herself is not heavy, and she also uses magic to reduce the speed of her descent.

"So...... Have we met? ”

Zheng Shu pulled Medea with a disgusted face, hoping to pull her off his body, but it was obvious that Medea's arms were already holding on to her, and she was unwilling to let go even if her arms were already crunching.

Because she was worried about tearing Medea's arm off, Zheng Shu could only let her maintain the posture of a koala.

After all, he didn't feel any malice from just now, of course, if he really wanted to say it, Medea's posture could be regarded as harassment at all.

"Ah...... I'm sorry, I forgot you haven't seen me yet. ”

Medea reacted suddenly, jumped off Zheng Shu's body, coughed and tidied up her demeanor, looking quite beautiful.

It's a pity that Zheng Shu and the others haven't forgotten her previous actions, so there is always a sense of disobedience when they see the elegance of Medea's pretend posture.

"Ahem, let me introduce myself, my name is Medea, and the reason why I was summoned here is to complete the transaction with you thousands of years ago, and to pursue my lover who ran away thousands of years ago."

"Ah...... Hello? ”

Because of the suddenness of the incident, Zheng Shu didn't know what kind of reaction to make, and what surprised him was that he didn't expect that the unusually fashionable girl in front of him was actually the betrayed witch Medea.

Medea is wearing slim denim trousers and a plain white shirt today, although there is not much embellishment, but it is still stunning with Medea's elf-like face.

However, except for Medea's ears that are much more pointed than others, no matter how you look at it, the other party is a modern urban beauty, and it is impossible to tell that it is an old antique of ancient Greece thousands of years ago.

"It feels like you're thinking about something rude." Medea's eyes suddenly sharpened.

"Is there one?" Zheng Shu was suddenly clicked on what he was thinking in his heart, and he seemed a little weak-hearted, and immediately changed the topic, "You just said that you want to complete the transaction with me...... Like I said, we shouldn't have met yet, right? ”

"Of course, but you'll see me in the future."

Medea also put what had just happened behind her, narrowed her eyes and smiled, looking like a fox who had successfully stolen chickens.

"When you're done trading with the world consciousness and back to your time, you'll go to me and ask me to help you research some kind of technology."

"Technology? What technology? ”

"Well...... this"

Medea suddenly gave up her elegant posture just now, and rushed to Zheng Shu again, she stretched out her hand enough, she should have wanted to touch Zheng Shu's head, but unfortunately the height difference between the two parties determined that it was difficult for Medea to stretch out her hand, so she puffed up her face angrily.

"Bend over!"

"Huh?"

"Don't rub it off, hurry up and bend down, you can't let me be a lady jumping on top of you again, right?"

Zheng Shu really wants to say that when the two of us first met, your ladylike image had completely collapsed.

However, since he didn't feel any malice from Medea, and his instincts didn't warn him, Zheng Shu decided to listen to her and bend down to give it a try.

Anyway, even if Medea really raided him, with his defense and reaction speed, there should be no possibility of a successful raid.

Thinking so, Zheng Shu half-squatted down, making his head at the same level as Medea's head.

Medea showed a treacherous smile, and suddenly put her face in front of Zheng Shu, and the two of them touched their foreheads together.

"Huh?!"

This exclamation was not made by Zheng Shu, but by Sakura Makiri, who had been beside her.

Previously, Medea jumped down and jumped on Zheng Shu's body, and Tong Sakura felt a little wrong, but at that time, she didn't react because of the suddenness of the incident.

But now seeing Medea's action, the radar of her inner rival was immediately activated, and the eyes looking at Medea were also full of unkindness.

"Concentrate and don't resist too much."

Medea's words made Zheng Shu frown, but he still cheered up, but secretly increased the power of the god's armament just in case.

Then Zheng Shu felt that a large amount of spiritual power carrying knowledge was transmitted from the foreheads of the two of them, and quickly distinguished the knowledge content carried in the spiritual power, and Zheng Shu's eyes revealed a shocked look.

Immediately, he restrained his other thoughts, and instead concentrated on letting go of his spiritual barrier and receiving knowledge wholeheartedly.

The activity between the spirits was quite rapid, and in less than a second, enough data to fill several terabytes of capacity memory was left in Zheng Shu's mind.

With such a large amount of knowledge gained in a short period of time, even if it has not been specifically digested, even with Zheng Shu's mental level, he still feels a little dizzy.

"Let go of all mental protection, this is the last thing."

Medea's voice revealed weakness, and her face turned pale.

Zheng Shu sensed from the fluctuations in her body that Medea had suddenly damaged a part of her soul, and it seemed that she had made something out of her soul just now.

Out of trust in this knowledge, Zheng Shu did not hesitate to let go of all the protection of his spirit, including the protection of the soul of the divine armament.

Then Zheng Shu felt that there was a complex thing entering his mind, that thing was roughly diamond-shaped, made of pure soul power, and its internal structure was so complex that just looking at it would make Zheng Shu feel dazzled.

Moreover, this thing is not solid, after reaching the depths of Zheng Shu's soul, it began to slowly absorb his soul power as an energy source, and the complex internal structure also began to work in harmony.

There is no doubt that although the role is not very clear, this thing definitely surpasses the level of magic, and it is a creation that has reached the level of magic.

"Hey, hey! Because of this thing, you must come to me in the future, otherwise there is a high probability that there will be a space-time paradox, and I don't know what will happen then. So do you understand? You must come to me! ”

Medea tried her best to stand on tiptoe, pressed her forehead against Zheng Shu's forehead, smiled weakly, and then very naturally reached out and hugged Zheng Shu's neck, as if she was going to hang on his body.

“…… Thank you so much. ”

Zheng Shu closed his eyes, and after roughly sorting out the information sent by Medea, he sincerely thanked him, and then his expression became a little strange.

"But may I ask, what are you doing now?"

"Cut! It's been discovered! ”

"Oh no! Poking someone like you with a knife, no matter what, I, as a person, should find out, right?! ”

Medea looked at the treasure in her hand with some dissatisfaction.

"Really, I said that I could crack all the magic tricks, but why didn't the stab on your body have any effect, shouldn't you have let go of the protection of the god's armament? Wouldn't I be able to be your master? ”

"Probably because I just let go of the soul protection, if I'm not mistaken, your treasure should not be effective if you don't accurately break through the opponent's defenses. And also! Don't say it so lightly! Did I just hear something terrible from your mouth?! ”

Medea put away the strange-looking ritual knife in her hand as if nothing happened, then let go of her hands and stood back on the ground.

"All in all, the deal between me and you is complete, and I have kept the agreement I made thousands of years ago, so I also hope that you can keep the agreement between us and go to me when you return to the gods."

However, because she had just lost a large number of souls, her mental power was so weak that Medea almost didn't stand firm.

Zheng Shu sighed helplessly, knelt on one knee on the ground, and reached out to support Medea's crumbling body.

"Did you skip such an important topic so openly? Forget it, don't worry, I'll be sure to look for you when I get back! ”

"Uh-huh~ That's right, I'm going to wait for you to 'go back'."

Medea snorted, as if remembering something happy, and a smug smile appeared on her face.

"Hmm......"

On the side, Kirizakura watched the interaction between Zheng Shu and Medea, and let out a sad cry like a defeated dog.

Defeated! Go down in flames!

No matter how you look at it, the other party and Zheng Shu get along far more than the atmosphere when they get along with Zheng Shu, and judging from Zheng Shu's change in demeanor, this Medea should be a more accurate grasp of Zheng Shu's mentality.

Obviously, he and Zheng Shu have been together for a longer time, but I always feel that the bad woman in front of me understands Zheng Shu's psychology better than himself.

"Can't...... You can't go to her! ”

A weak voice came from the side, Zheng Shu was stunned for a moment, and immediately heard that this voice was Medusa, who had already passed out in a coma.

"Are you awake?"

After stabilizing Medea, Zheng Shu immediately came to Medusa, who had just woken up, and checked her physical condition.

Fortunately, as he had detected before, since Medusa woke up, her physical condition has been recovering rapidly, and now she is out of danger and has returned to a state of minor injuries.

Medusa didn't care about her physical condition, and after gaining enough strength, she stood up and looked at Medea vigilantly.

"You can't go see her! If you go to see her......"

Medusa opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't say anything as if she was forbidden by something.

"Na, her appearance is a violation of the laws of time and space, this is just a small warning, if you continue to talk, I'm afraid not only you, Zheng Shu will also be greatly affected."

Medea leaned against a large tree with a pale expression, but she always had a smug smile on her face.

"You really look like a wicked mother-in-law who doesn't want her children to get married, but it's useless, Zheng Shu will definitely go to me then."

Medusa looked at Zheng Shu helplessly, Zheng Shu could probably guess from Medusa's expression that if he went to find Medea, there would be a very big change, but he just shook his head vigorously, and his expression was very determined.

"I'm sorry, Mother, I have to go to see her because I want to revive you!"

That's right, the knowledge that Medea passed on to Zheng Shu was the method that guided him on how to resurrect the dead Medusa step by step on behalf of the gods.

In fact, after Zheng Shu came to the modern era, he also consciously collected some knowledge and skills related to magic, trying to find a way to resurrect Medusa after returning to the gods, for example, learning puppet technology from Aozaki Orange is one of his attempts.

And the knowledge that Medea passed on to Zheng Shu is a more accurate and systematic way to resurrect Medusa.

However, if the prototype of the technology that Zheng Shu is thinking about is the Sky Monkey, then the technology that Medea gave him is an aviation rocket.

Although the two sides are the same in the most essential principle, the difference in specific technology is incalculable.

After all, strictly speaking, it was a technique for resurrecting gods.

And in addition to these techniques, the most important thing is that Medea finally had to lose her soul to pass on the complex creation to Zheng Shu, which was the key to resurrecting Medusa, and with Zheng Shu's own magic level, it was absolutely impossible to make it.

By now, Zheng Shu has probably understood the situation between himself and Medea.

To put it simply, this resurrection method is a gift from the future or past self.

Because Valhalla transcends time, both past and future servants can be summoned, so the future Zheng Shu took advantage of this characteristic, and after returning to the god generation, he found Medea and entrusted her to help research the corresponding technology, and agreed to "trade" again after being summoned.

After all, judging from the complexity of this technology, Zheng Shu knows very well that this technology is definitely not something that can be completed in a short period of time.

It is even possible that even after her death, Medea would have to continue her research at Valhalla for a long time before she was able to develop this technique, and in the process, her magic skills even reached the level of a magician.

And this is also a "transaction" that only Zheng Shu can complete, because only he became a servant without death, and he was summoned to the modern world thousands of years later.

As a result, he was able to accept this knowledge and reuse it when he returned to his own timeline.

Zheng Shu didn't know what terrible things had happened after he went to find Medea, and even made Medusa resolutely oppose his actions, but Zheng Shu knew very well that if he wanted to resurrect his "adoptive mother", then he had to take this risk.

"Don't worry...... I'm not going to die. ”

Zheng Shu put his hand over Medusa's forehead and gently comforted her.

He didn't lie, with his strength in the gods, there is basically no enemy who can kill him in seconds, so that even if the enemy can block all his resurrection methods, as long as he is not killed in seconds, he can jump the world in an instant with his own panel.

Although it will be quite difficult to come back after being teleported to other worlds, Zheng Shu believes that as his strength continues to improve, he will one day find a chance to return.

Since he made sure that his life would not be lost, Zheng Shu had no reason to give up the opportunity to save Medusa.

He also saw Medusa's appearance before, and it was possible to make a god unable to continue talking, which showed that the power of time in the Moon World was beyond imagination, and if he didn't want to cause a time paradox, then Zheng Shu had better follow the existing solution.

Medusa looked at Zheng Shu, her lips trembled a few times as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, just squatted down again as if she had lost her strength, gritted her teeth and got angry silently.

……

……

On the other side, Liudong Temple, Yuanzang Mountain.

With a fluctuation in the air, the sky courtyard removed the hidden magic and revealed itself in the sky above the Enzang Mountain.

With the help of the dense fog and the attention of the servants sent out, the Sky Garden finally came to Enzo Mountain without anyone knowing.

"Alright, you've arrived at your destination."

Semiramis reached out and adjusted the array of magic arrays in front of her, as Karna was gone, so she simply released all the mana in the spare mana furnace at once, summoning a thick fog that was enough to completely envelop the entire city.

The sky garden is made up of regular green floating islands, marble floors and pillars, and a variety of plants are intertwined, and the garden floats because of the concept of "inversion", in which plants grow downward and water flows from downstream to upstream.

And in the middle of the courtyard, the underground with the altar is an extremely magical place, and the internal space is obviously abnormal, considering the size of the courtyard itself, it is impossible to have such a huge place.

But even Semiramis's own eyes could not see the end of the place, which was the result of the magic that had been cast to distort the space.

The entire underground space is bowl-shaped, but the central part is a flat place, and the large red brick staircase leads down to the center, where the altar is dedicated to the Great Holy Grail of Fuyuki City.

The ceiling of this underground space, the part of the "sky", is filled with water, which is an upside-down lake, and when you look up, you can see bright water lilies in blue, red, yellow and other colors, like a rainbow-colored sky.

Semiramis arrived after making sure she had arrived at her location, and the next thing she had to do was to transfer the Great Chalice to the Aerial Courtyard before everyone else noticed.

This is the strategy set by Shiro Amakusa Shiro before, and although it has cost a lot of money, the plan can be regarded as smooth.

However......

"Damn! The Great Holy Grail hasn't been fully activated yet?! What's going on? Is there not enough 'sacrifice'? ”

Semiramis slammed the wall, feeling the feedback from the magic, gritting his teeth in resentment.

The Great Grail itself takes two forms, one is when the Holy Grail War has not begun, when it is in the physical body, and it will constantly absorb the magic in the spiritual veins in the mountains to accumulate power.

During this period, the magicians could directly observe or repair it, and the repair of the Great Holy Grail by the Gosan family also depended on this period.

The other is the state after the start of the Holy Grail War, when the Great Grail will turn into pure magic and intertwine in the spiritual veins, and only when the sacrifices inside the Small Grail reach a certain level, the Great Grail will appear again.

Obviously, due to some planning errors, the sacrifices inside the Little Grail have not yet reached their limits, so that the Great Grail has no precursors.

Semiramis quickly suppressed her emotional irritability, and the more she needed to calm down at this time, she quickly cast a reconnaissance magic trick to detect the specific situation of the Great Holy Grail.

"Whew...... Fortunately, the tipping point has been reached, and only one more servant is needed as a sacrifice to fully manifest. ”

While Semiramis breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but complain a little when he recalled the battle that had taken place in his aerial courtyard before.

"Really, if you kill that servant, you won't have to be so troublesome now."

“……”

The tall figure who had been standing behind him silently protecting him did not speak, but fell silent as always.

Aside from the necessary questions and answers, and during the previous battle with Medusa, Semiramis had not heard the figure speak, as if the other party was mute.

Semiramis was also accustomed to the silence of the figure behind him, but he bit his fingers very ingracefully, quickly thinking about a way to break the game.

"A servant...... The rest of the battles are over, and time is running out, and the Great Chalice must be removed before the others can react. Then the right target ......"

With the information of the Holy Grail War quickly gathered in his mind, Semiramis finally remembered a piece of information that Arash had reported earlier.

"That's it! Avenger, give you a mission to kill that Caster, and I'll point you where he is. ”

The black Avenger was silent for a moment: "I have been ordered to protect this courtyard and you. ”

"I've changed my order now, and now it's your job to kill that Caster as quickly as possible! You don't have to worry about my safety, there is a courtyard in the sky, and I am not helpless. ”

“…… Understand! ”
