Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched his hair and said, "I am a little worried. After all, we might be meeting a god-level being. The only king of the Lostbelt we have ever seen is Ivan the Terrible. He was so big."
"Senior~ Didn't Mr. Napoleon say that those two looked like ordinary people?" Mashu said with a smile.
Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "That's right, there's no point in thinking so much. If we can't solve it, we'll just have to go to the Wandering Sea first."
Chaldea now has a foothold. It's okay to stay on the imaginary submarine for a short time, but it's not okay for a long time. For example, the conditions on the imaginary submarine are not enough to support her to cast the spirit base shadow.
"A proposal from the new director?"
"Okay, Mashu. Just follow me to the castle tomorrow, and we'll go to rest." Ritsuka Fujimaru pushed Mashu into the room as if nothing had happened.
A night of silence.
The next day, Napoleon led the Chaldeans to the castle where the queen was.
Sigurd and Napoleon both said that the Lostbelt is harmless unless it causes substantial damage. That magician is the type who values Fujimaru Ritsuka strategically and despises Chaldea tactically.
"Shidune is confined in the castle by the Queen and is not allowed to move around. So you can see her as long as you go to the castle." Napoleon said this on the way.
"Are there no guards here?" asked Fujimaru Ritsuka.
"There used to be a Valkyrie stationed here. But now the entire Lostbelt is short of labor. How could that magician let go of such high-quality labor? Didn't you also know that Brunhilde was captured and forced to do hard labor?"
Before seeing it, it was hard to imagine that the Valkyries who changed their jobs to fight were doing production work that had nothing to do with fighting. So many Valkyries wanted to go to work like exorcising monsters - but this job was taken up by Sigurd, Brunhilde and the three Valkyrie sisters.
"What about you, Napoleon? You don't have any?"
"New soldier, the emperor's name is of no use here." Napoleon shrugged. "But with my efforts, you don't have to do this kind of hard work. You just need to write down my experience of a lifetime of military service. Maybe, as a collection of military books?"
"Book of war?"
"Yes, the magician also said that the school might use your military manual in the future. He also saw that in the distant future, two different forces of human beings would fight with the same tutorial. I think the magician is thinking too far ahead. He skipped the stage of human revival and saw the stage of human division."
Fujimaru Ritsuka said, "Huh? Did that magician think of going that far?"
"Yes," said Napoleon.
During the conversation, he led Fujimaru Ritsuka and the other two into the castle, turned left and right, and then walked underground.
Underground is a dungeon.
Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately asked: "Why do we have to go to the dungeon?"
"Because Miss Shidune lives in the dungeon." Napoleon said, "There is a magic workshop under the dungeon that was abandoned by the magician. But even so, the design inside is very comfortable. Miss Shidune is used to living there and doesn't want to come out. I also wrote my book in the dungeon recently."
Napoleon was very familiar with this place and led everyone in quickly.
Open the door leading to the lowest dungeon and walk down the stairs. You can clearly feel the temperature rising.
But as he walked further, Napoleon's steps clearly paused.
"Napoleon, what's wrong with you?" Ritsuka Fujimaru walked up to Napoleon in confusion.
Then I saw the man standing in the magic workshop.
The man was flipping through his cell phone. He looked up when he heard the voice and said, "I was wondering why you were late today. So someone from Chaldea has arrived? Hmm, it's the female Gudako. What a pretty girl."
Chapter 539 Players and Protagonists
Male, looks to be in his twenties, with an Asian face.
Ritsuka Fujimaru built up his understanding of him.
Judging from his clothes, he looks like a modern man.
and many more……
modern?
"Are you the magician?"
"Is that how Napoleon introduced me?" Li Mo shook his head. "It's correct to call me a magician. However, according to the definition of the Clock Tower, I can't be considered a magician. I'm probably just a magician, right?"
Magician and magician.
There is only a slight difference between the two. But in the eyes of the Clock Tower, there is a world of difference. The former studies magic, eager to reach the root. The latter only uses magic as a tool.
Li Mo is the latter.
source?
He thought that word was so ridiculous. No, it was the magicians who were so ridiculous. Stepping into the "Origin Vortex" was too illusory. Too far away.
"Are you here to see Shidune? She was dragged away by Skadilla to chat about family matters. But... I think she can answer your questions, and I can answer them. Don't be so hostile. I really don't have any murderous intentions towards you. Would you like some coffee?"
"You still have coffee? Didn't you say you only had tea?"
Facing Napoleon's questioning, Li Mo shrugged: "Do you believe me when I say no? Although I don't drink much coffee, I can give it to others. But if that other person is you, Napoleon, then no."
"why?"
"There's no point in you pursuing Ophelia. But the problem is, don't harass Ophelia during work hours! You know, Ophelia is not good at handling paperwork. If you harass her like this, her efficiency will be even lower. And those documents will be needed the next day! So I have to work overtime."
Li Mo took out the instant coffee and complained, "Alas, why did I torture myself in the first place? I had to make such a fuss about official documents. Wouldn't it be better to let them evolve this kind of thing naturally?"
"You want to re-establish a political entity?"
"Holmes, what you asked is really crucial. I have actually considered experimenting with planned economy here. But after thinking about it, what does it matter if the experiment succeeds? It will not help me in any way."
"So, Mr. Magician, what are you pursuing?" Holmes asked.
The aroma of coffee filled the air. Li Mo casually took out a sugar cube from the inventory and said, "Just tell me if you want to add sugar cubes. Oh, Holmes, you just asked me what I was looking for? How would I know? Let's just muddle through for now."
Summoned the priestesses to deliver coffee to everyone in Chaldea, and received "thank you" from everyone.
"Oh, by the way. I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Li Mo. Don't call me magician, just call me by my name." Li Mo said.
"Mr. Li Mo, are you willing to help us?" said Fujimaru Ritsuka.
Li Mo said, "So direct? I thought you were going to be more roundabout. Why don't you let Holmes talk to me more and get some information from me?"
Sherlock Holmes.
A world-renowned detective. Perhaps, we should add the word "most".
This name, like the name of a god in mythology, appears in multiple universes. At least, Li Mo found traces of Holmes in the urban world of Zongman. Does the servant Holmes in the Type-Moon world really exist? Or are there other factors?
Mr. Li doesn't remember.
"I think Mr. Li Mo is trustworthy."
"trust……"
There is a kind of affinity and infectiousness in Fujimaru Ritsuka.
I think I roughly know why this girl was able to travel through seven singularities and defeat Goetia.
Reality is not a game. Games have countless opportunities to start over, and what players do is the fate of the author. Even for the so-called game levels, players can spend a long time to find the only solution.
Reality is different. In reality, you only have one chance to make any choice.
Li Mo showed a more serious expression: "Then, Master of Chaldea. Do you have the courage to talk to me alone?"
"senior……"
Walking alone with the powerful magician, Mashu whispered beside him, "Senior..."
"Mashu, don't worry." Ritsuka Fujimaru made his choice.
"Then walk with me, girl."
Li Mo stood up and left, followed by Fujimaru Ritsuka. Mashu stood up and tried to catch up, but was stopped by Napoleon.
The emperor said, "Don't worry, Miss Mashu. That magician always keeps his word."
"But, as a Servant."
"Trust the recruit's choice." Napoleon said: "From her eyes, she is actually a soldier who has experienced many battles."
In comparison, Mashu seems rather immature.
Leaving the warm dungeon, I walked up the stairs and headed towards the upper floors of the castle.
The cold air hit Fujimaru Ritsuka. She activated the insulation on her uniform to make herself less cold.
Ritsuka Fujimaru looked at the figure in front of him and saw only the loneliness slowly creeping in.
"Mr. Li Mo, are you from another world line?" She broke the silence and asked.
"Yes. In my world line, Marisbury did not participate in the Holy Grail War. Come to think of it, the Greater Holy Grail in that world line has long been contaminated. How could the monarch of the astronomy department be interested in a contaminated Greater Holy Grail? This is good, at least I won't end up on the path of this world line."
Marisbury, the previous director of Chaldea.
Fujimaru Ritsuka knew this name because he was the father of the director Olga Marie.
"Do you know him? In your world line?"
"I've seen him, but I didn't recognize him. In our world line, the monarch commissioned Hatteras of the Modern Magic Department to investigate the Holy Grail in Fuyuki City. Oh, by the way, Fuyuki City is the singularity F that you have experienced."
That was the very beginning.
Li Mo, who was walking in front, closed his eyes, and his mood was a little complicated. He was facing the protagonist who was the player's visual.
In Teyvat, he had faced the protagonist. But given the special nature of the brother and sister Sora and Ying, Li Mo only regarded Ying as his sister, but Fujimaru Ritsuka was different.
Whether it is a male Guda or a female Guda, they are all projections of the player. In the game, gender can be swapped at any time.
No one knows Fujimaru Ritsuka better than the players.
"Fujimaru Ritsuka."
"Well, what's the matter, Mr. Li Mo?"
"Thank you for your hard work along the way."
"Hey, hey?" Fujimaru Ritsuka was stunned for a moment, then he touched the back of his head and smiled foolishly: "Why did Mr. Li Mo say that?"
"I just saw all your experiences from singularity F to now." Li Mo said with his hands in his pockets, "Tiamat, Goetia, Kama, and Kiara Seshoin. There are four beasts in total that you have met. There is also a primate killer, but it has given up its identity as a beast."
Li Mo took Fujimaru Ritsuka to the rooftop of the castle. The sun hanging in the sky made the world extremely bright.
"What's past is past. Fujimaru Ritsuka, do you want to know the future?"
Li Mo turned around and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka. His eyes turned into a bright golden color.
