The long speech came to an end, and everyone had different opinions on it. But most of them showed worried expressions. Such words were no less than a critical illness notice handed to everyone.
Shirou Emiya frowned and said, "Professor, is there no other way?"
"Returning God is the most direct way."
Ergo's problems are all caused by the three "gods" in his body, so all he needs to do is send all these gods away.
"But we don't have the means to return God." Toosaka Rin added: "I just don't know if Miss Caster has the means to do so."
Caster from Fuyuki City is the main force in the disintegration of the Holy Grail.
"As far as I know, this is not Medea's research direction. Besides, isn't there another way to go?"
A male voice appeared here, and it was not the voice of anyone present. Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw the figures of a man and a woman.
"Ms. Hanasari, and Mr. Li Mo?"
The one sitting on the outermost side was Sakura Matou, and she spoke to the two of them.
Hanasari smiled and greeted Matou Sakura, blending smoothly into the crowd. But the man on the other side was under the gaze of El-Melloi II.
He said, "What method?"
"Gnosticism." Li Mo said, "Even if humans are in the process of refining gods, as long as they continue to train themselves and obtain the flesh of gods, they can manipulate miracles at will."
El-Melloi II certainly knew about Gnosticism, which even John, one of the Twelve Apostles, considered a dangerous heresy. But it was exactly the problem that could be solved for Ergo.
"If humans can't understand it, then we can just obtain a body that surpasses humans? That sounds good, but how do we do it specifically?"
"Lord El-Melloi II, you may try alchemy."
"Alchemy, you mean the Philosopher's Stone? That kind of thing..." El-Melloi II paused, then asked, "It turns base metals (lead) into precious metals (gold)?"
"As expected of you, Lord El-Melloi II. You understood it so quickly. Turning base metals (lead) into precious metals (gold) is the same as sublimating a lead-like dirty soul into an angelic soul as golden, isn't it?" Li Mo said.
El-Melloi II thought of exactly this possibility, and put forward his ideas and methods.
This is undoubtedly the second way out.
Chapter 578: Object of Exchange
Li Mo's words were like a revelation. El-Melloi II had enough knowledge to speculate on the possibilities after receiving the advice. According to normal thinking, this path can be taken.
but……
"It is feasible, yes. But it is only theoretically feasible, just like nuclear fusion in the scientific world. There is a theory, but it cannot be realized." El-Melloi II came to the following conclusion after analysis.
——It’s difficult. Very difficult.
"Besides, if the Holy Church knew about this idea, they would launch a powerful counterattack."
Gnosticism is a heresy among heresies in Christianity. If the churches around the world knew about it, they would probably put aside their prejudices and come to destroy it.
At the same time, El-Melloi II felt that this was not realistic because of alchemy. "Golden Refinement" turned base metals into precious metals, which was not something that ordinary alchemists could do. What about the biochemical soul?
"Lord El-Melloi II, what if you have an example in front of you?" Li Mo said with a smile.
Then, he pulled his sleeves
The short-haired girl said, "Really, Mo. Just because you can do something doesn't mean others can do it. Even you think that your friend over there will succeed."
"Well, there's probably a 10% chance of success." Li Mo said.
A one in ten chance is relatively high for Li, who is bombarded by the card-drawing game. But this chance is too low for saving people.
El-Melloi II's frown loosened. He no longer had to choose between the two options. The path of returning the gods was undoubtedly safe, but he had no choice. Li Mo's proposal to stop being a human being had a specific implementation plan.
Wait...has the other party already completed this evolution?
"Aren't you afraid that the Holy Church will cause trouble for you?"
"What are you afraid of? How many divisions does the Pope have?"
"…Even though I'm a magus, I know where this sentence comes from."
I know for sure that the magician in front of me doesn't care about the rules at all, at least not the rules of the Holy Church.
In other words, another problem child.
My stomach started to hurt.
Even though the magician in front of him was not his own background, everyone would act together for a while. If the other party caused any trouble for him, he would have to deal with it himself. Even though the magicians in Fuyuki City had connections with the Law and Politics Department, everyone knew what the Law and Politics Department was...
Li Mo said: "However, there is also a third option."
"Please speak directly if you have anything to say, Mr. Li Mo." Matou Sakura said, "You know a lot of things, and you can make corresponding plans based on the information you have. Do you have any feasible solutions for Ergo's problem?"
He said: "The third method is 100% feasible. Since he is suffering from the Three Pillars in his body, then it would be great if the Three Pillars did not exist. And it just so happens that plundering other people's 'mysteries' is something I am good at."
plunder.
When saying this word, Li Mo emphasized his tone. One of the monarchs present was known as the "Lord of Plunder".
"But unfortunately, I can't do that because of the deal with the Wandering Sea Magician," Li Mo added.
"Wandering Sea?"
"That's right, Lord El-Melloi II. You should know this clearly."
"I originally thought that only the Alatus Institute was involved in this matter. Is the Wandering Sea also involved?"
Li Mo said: "Three gods, three forces. In fact, you forgot one force."
Doesn't the current Second Generation know this? Didn't the magician at the Alatus Institute tell him?
Maybe it was a plot error caused by me?
He didn't care. As a time traveler, if he didn't even dare to change the plot, what kind of time traveler was he?
"What faction? Is it the Clock Tower faction?"
Three, this number is very subtle. The Magic Association was established by three organizations, and the Clock Tower can also be divided into three factions.
The first thing El-Melloi II thought of was the Clock Tower.
God.
Such research is also an extremely valuable practice for the magicians of the Clock Tower. It is also an opportunity to cooperate with the Wandering Sea and the Alatus Institute.
Li Mo: "No, it's the Mountain Court."
"Mountain Court?!"
El-Melloi II knew the value of this word. This matter was elevated from the realm of Western magic to the realm of Western magic and thought magic.
Both types of magic are based on magic circuits, but in fact they are different. The former uses the magic base left by Solomon, while the latter uses its own thought circuit.
Li Mo said: "Well... to be more precise, it's just an immortal who was driven out of the Mountain Court. Don't worry, you are not facing the immortal's real body, but just one of her Yang spirits."
"Yang Shen, what is that?" Toosaka Rin next to him asked without understanding.
Li Mo: "It can be regarded as a physical avatar. In the Eastern cultivation system, there are concepts of Yin God and Yang God. The former is similar to the soul leaving the body, and actually involves the strengthening of the soul. But such a soul leaving the body can only be done at night, and it will be burned by the power of the sun during the day. It is more like the image of the dead. The Yang God is a step further than the former, and can walk under the power of the sun.
Another big difference between Yang Shen and Yin Shen is that they can come into contact with entities."
After a pause, he added: "It should be noted that Yang Shen can exert most of the power of the main body. You better be careful next time, at least that person is still an immortal."
"Mr. Li Mo, is it really okay to talk so much nonsense on a first meeting? Be straightforward and give me some information."
Immortal.
Except for Gray and Ergo, no one else was unfamiliar with this word. In the East, it was an existence that could stand shoulder to shoulder with gods. This can be seen from Journey to the West. Now they were facing immortals, and even the immortal's Yang Shen was terrifying enough.
"Monkeys," Li Mo said. "The god in that young man's body is related to monkeys. I think a wise monarch like El-Melloi II should be able to know the answer from the information he has."
"So why don't you just tell me the answer directly?" Toosaka Rin said impatiently.
The core meaning is, Riddler, get out.
Li Mo: "It's not that I want to be a riddle man, but it's useless for me to say the name directly. The god is in him, not in me."
Suppose God is eaten by him.
I guess there's not a bit left after it's been digested.
"You won't take action when facing an immortal?"
"Leave it to the young man named Ergo." Li Mo paused and said, "I can give him some advice. I am ahead of anyone in the field of god-eating."
I just ate a fire giant a while ago.
El-Melloi II asked, "What reward did the magician of the Wandering Sea give you?"
"Knowledge," Li Mo said. "To be precise, it's the knowledge of the Wandering Sea."
El-Melloi II nodded. "It's an offer I can't refuse."
Chapter 579: Immortal Riding the Waves
"Rider!!! I'm being disliked."
The island is neither too big nor too small, just enough to accommodate a frustrated person, a lonely person.
On one side there is a lonely figure, on the other side there is a lot of hustle and bustle.
Family members, who understands this!
"I just think you're complaining for no reason."
Standing next to Li Mo was a tall, perfect lady. Her eyes were covered with an eye mask, which gave her a more abstinent look.
Once again, Li Mo is the only one here.
Rider is not considered a human.
Rider: "Are you thinking about something crazy? If so, then I don't think I need to accompany you. You can go back to accompany Sakura."
"What, in Sister R's eyes, Sakura is more important than me?"
"Isn't this natural?" said Sister R.
The convulsion was almost over. In fact, Li Mo was not angry when he was driven out of the room by Hua Sanli. He had said what he should say, and it was enough to consolidate the image of a prophet.
At Ergo's place, Li Mo also gave some pointers. In fact, his profession was a little off. Li Mo usually killed his opponent, or beat him half to death before devouring him. But the three pillars of "god" in Ergo's body were still alive. But he could draw inferences from one instance to another.
