Stray Chapter 49: Homework? That’s out of the way

Although the body of the Holy Lance Lengomiad has always been restrained here, it exists as an "anchor" that tightly ties the world inside and outside, but it does not mean that she cannot use the Holy Lance The power of —— Xia Ran intercepted the reflection of Lungominiad, combined with the concept of holy spear, made a magic dress and gave it to Arturia.

Although it is essentially a magic dress, but because of the terrifying accomplishments of the maker, and the power and concept of the real thing, she is equivalent to a reflection holding a holy spear, and her power is not inferior or even To go beyond the scope of the top Noble Phantasm.

Because Noble Phantasms are, after all, noble illusions, armed with human fantasy as a skeleton.

Just as the Servant is not the person he was in his lifetime, the Noble Phantasm is often not the corresponding legendary entity, but a recorded projection that was copied together. According to this standard, sealing the reflection of the holy spear Lungominiad on the inside of the magic attire, and releasing it if necessary, its edge is similar to that of a Noble Phantasm.

Altolia has mastered that magic dress, and in this world where Xia Ran controls all mysteries and magic, the increase and blessing she can get is naturally huge—

It's almost like a god.

So if the holy spear is used to lower the verdict, no matter how strong that black dragon is, she will be able to hold on to it, and she will attack and kill with super-powerful energy from a long distance... Three times if it doesn't work, she doesn't have to be stingy with the consumption of magic power.

"Do you use a holy spear..."

It's just that Arturia looked at the "Pillar of Light", but pondered for a while, and continued to ask with some uncertainty: "Although this can be done, that evil dragon is ultimately your hard work, Master. Come on, do you really want to kill it so decisively?"

“It’s hard to talk about hard work. Although it is true that a lot of thought and resources have been devoted to it, there is more than one project that I have been promoting at the same time. Since it is confirmed that this project has failed If it is, then there is only one way to deal with it..."

Xia Ran squinted and carefully observed the pattern on the projection and the corresponding value changes, and answered casually without looking back——

"And even if it's not decisive, so what? Is there any other choice? It can't be said that it is very painful, sad, and reluctant to let go, and finally it is difficult to make up my mind to be able to set off I am a very emotional and nostalgic person, right?"

“…”

“…”

"No, that's not what I said, Master." Arturia blinked, aware of her Master's slightly unkind tone, and thinking of what the other party had just said, she probably understood why the other party was dissatisfied. .

The magician has always told her not to get too caught up in her responsibilities, and sooner or later this singularity or the Lostbelt will have to be let go. But she has always been in the left ear and the right ear out, although she has always said that she understands this truth, but there is no way to do it.

Because this is her obsession, and there is no way to let go of the responsibility until she dies, so she seems to have returned to the state of the King Arthur.

The reason why Camelot's crazy development has advanced to this level in just a few years, in addition to the rapid development and popularization of magic, is due to the continuous operation of her affectionate ruling machine. Overall, she is still too dedicated, giving the impression that she will die from overwork sooner or later.

However, Artoria wisely pretended not to know about this, and just continued to talk about her own thoughts:

"No matter what, a lot of time and resources poured into that evil dragon is a price that has been paid, but it would be too wasteful to get nothing in return... Although if it is from the country From the point of view of the people, I hope this evil dragon will be defeated."

"But if you want to start from the perspective of competition between history and history, and involve the battle of life and death between the Dao Lost Belts, then only for survival, regardless of good or evil, this is the correct choice. I think if If possible, it's better to tame that evil dragon and turn it into a power that we can control, rather than choose to kill it directly."

The monsters that threaten the people naturally need to be eradicated. This is a matter of course.

But considering the original intention of Miraboreas being created, and the fact that it is the most successful experimental body at present, Arturia cannot solve the problem so simply and rudely, she must have a more overall view From the perspective of considering the overall interests of the gains and losses.

As a king, she was the one who killed the most people in order to protect the people. She was used to this kind of thing. Start wars, take lives, if necessary... So for the same reason, she also holds the same attitude towards the Lostbelt dispute that may arise in the future.

"...I know what you mean, but its strategic significance is no longer very important. When I promoted this plan, I mainly took a fancy to the characteristics of the black dragon. After all, it is an exception in the ecosystem, so it is very important. It may also have the opportunity to be an exception in the Gaia system, and the characteristics of curse and erosion used by itself also overlap with the characteristics of the dragon phenomenon."

The magician looked back at her and sighed.

"By this, the different advantages of the systems of the two worlds can be combined, so that the existence of Miraboreas can truly rely on the concept of dragon species, and successfully born in this world, and then according to its unique particularity, and Endowed with the status and ability of "UO" by the will of the planet..."

"Mainly to deal with other Lostbelt weapons?" Blinking her emerald green eyes, the knight girl asked affirmatively.

"That's right, because the primate killer is not just a weapon against humans, nor a weapon against primates in the biological sense, but a weapon against all life in this world."

Xia Ran said calmly, "As long as life evolved on this planet, even if it is not the human race in the end, but another kind of primate becomes the overlord on this planet, it will still be subject to the planet. The absolute killing power given by the will is overwhelming!"

So in his plans, this will be a powerful trump card against other Lostbelts! The Lost Belt is also a history on Earth after all, and cannot be separated from the foundation of this planet.

For example, in the Russian Lostbelt, in AD 1570, a meteorite caused the reappearance of the Ice Age, and human beings could not adapt to the environment and were eliminated. In order to survive, Ivan the Terrible and his magicians put human beings with The combination of monsters transformed into a race called "Yaga".

Having replaced humans as the new primates, they are no longer humans, but a completely new, non-human, non-beast species...but so what? After all, it is also a species that evolved on the earth.

Unfortunately, although the black dragon was created through genetic engineering again and again and met all the conditions expected by Xia Ran, Gaia did not respond to it.

The plan was perfect, the plan failed.

"So it doesn't make sense to keep it, and now this weapon is out of control, so naturally it would be safer to destroy it directly." Xia Ran said with her hands spread out.

"I understand, but I still want to try my best." Arturia thought for a while, and said this very seriously. "Even if Miraboreas is not the ace you expected as Master, but he is an absolute monster that surpasses Servants, and his own value is quite huge..."

"If you want to give it a try, this is fine. I have no opinion. But I suggest you use the holy spear directly on it in the same way..."

Xia Ran has nothing to do with this, but she kindly gives advice: "Because you can't reason with the evil dragon, convince it or influence it, so only by hurting it can you Maybe tame it...if that doesn't work, kill it."

"I see, then the question now is... Where is Miraboreas?" The girl nodded lightly, without any objection.

"It was injured, naturally it was looking for a place to recuperate temporarily, and it is still entrenched in the area of ​​​​the Hebrides, as long as it erodes and transforms the environment according to its natural radiated energy, causing climate and astronomical phenomena The changing characteristics should be able to easily lock its specific orientation..."

The magician doesn't need to perceive deliberately to know the approximate location of the evil dragon.

And after thinking about it, he couldn't help but add: "But you can wait, that group of human guardians are currently fighting the idea of ​​​​the black dragon, so you don't have to do it right away, before they It's better to take advantage of the fire after the action..."

After all, it's not that he didn't pay attention at all, at least he still knew that after the Chaldean group escaped from death, they quickly reorganized and temporarily united with the so-called rebels.

They got some key information from the latter, and they knew that Fujimaru Rika was missing for what reason, so they could only join forces with the latter under anxiety, and formulated a new strategy... Basically Kagami also had the same idea as Artoria, trying to control the black dragon Miraboreas.

Although it was almost destroyed by the evil dragon, the main reason was because Skaha was careless, and when the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows fully recovered and became serious, the black dragon had no chance of winning, so Their plan is also very feasible.

The reason for this choice is mainly because Chaldea and the others feel that there is no chance of winning the king's city by force, and they plan to use it as a one-time trump card after controlling the evil dragon.

"The guardian of human principles..." Artoria's expression became a little complicated. Frankly speaking, she admired these people very much. She shouldered such a heavy responsibility and was able to travel through pain and hardship. , all the way up to this point.

But it seems that the fact that this group of people is going to be hostile to her makes her feel very complicated.

"Well, speaking, there are quite a few of your acquaintances in the team this time, and you will meet soon..." Xia Ran said with a smile, "If it wasn't for me to control it from the source Magic, I'm afraid the entire Knights of the Round Table will be summoned."

"Yes, yes?" Now it was the knight girl's turn with a somewhat reluctant expression.

"Sooner or later, you will have to face it, and then you can just follow the script I gave you..." Xia Ran said in a wicked way, her eyes twinkling with the light of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, "We are now Playing a villain role, I can just take this opportunity to clarify the past grievances."

"How can it be so easy..." The girl sighed.

Under such circumstances, the Knights of the Round Table who are still responding to the call are definitely people with obsessions and remorse that are not inferior to her. How could it be so easy to clarify?

"It's not easy or not. This thing is not difficult at all. You are just obsessed with the authorities and dare not face it and think deeply." Xia Ran couldn't help laughing out loud, "You've seen me the script, you should know the two principles in it, right?"

"...Let those who feel that they have made a mistake have a chance to correct; those who feel that they owe it a chance to make mistakes."

"That's it, for Lancelot, Gawain, and the others, just give them a chance to do something wrong for you. Do you think the plot I arranged is to drag them into the water and stain their noble knightly qualities , but after they know about it, they will definitely thank me in return. Believe it or not?"

Xia Ran said solemnly: "As for a knight like Bedwell who feels that he has done something wrong, he can also give him a chance to correct his mistakes, so that he can truly relieve himself instead of hugging him. To die with a lifelong attachment to regret is obviously the best of both worlds!"

"This..." Arturia felt confused again.

Is that so? It seems to be the case, but it always feels like something is not right.

Did not give the King of Knights a chance to think too much, Xia Ran slammed her mouth: "And there is Mordred, it is estimated that this time she will still be rebellious like Bedwell, standing on the side of Chaldea, But that's fine, lest none of them run away..."

He looked at the girl in front of him: "But then again, this is also a good opportunity for your father and son to understand each other, don't you really think about it?"

"There is no such thing as father and son!" Arturia blurted out.

"That's the mother and daughter?" Xia Ran raised her eyebrows and wondered, "But then, what is Morgan..."

"Master! Please be careful with your words and actions!!" The little lion was already grinding his teeth, as if he was trying his best to endure something.

"Okay, okay, anyway, it's your family business, I'll just leave it alone..." The magician sighed in disappointment, and said this out of his mind, and at the same time, the evil flashed in his eyes again. Interesting light.

Do not intervene? How is that possible, is he such a person? !

What about family affairs? According to Arturia's relationship with him, is he still an outsider? That's out of the way, he's definitely going to make trouble!

On the other hand, the Master didn't notice anything unusual at all. After the knight girl got rid of the topic that made her feel uncomfortable, she was slightly relieved.
