Chapter 634 Strange Destiny
Xia Ran was not unfamiliar with the scene that should have happened at the far end of time and space. She even had a subtle feeling that her liver was aching, or it was an illusion.
But that was all a long time ago, and it is not enough for outsiders to know.
Whether it's the joy of shipping or the sadness of a shipwreck...
He recognized what that space was. A huge three-dimensional magic circle centered on planetary magic. It was located at a singular point outside the normal timeline. It was a small world, a conceptual universe, and the entire "field" was a miniature sandbox of the universe. .
Just like the magic workshop means to the magician, the location of the workshop is the magician's position——
The so-called workshop is an "alien world" created by magicians in order to hone and strengthen their magic. If the magic seal is an organ created on the inside, then the workshop is a new alien world created on the outside.
The so-called workshop is the end of the heavenly principles that magicians have accumulated over several years and decades, sometimes even several generations. For magicians, the workshop is like a camp. It is their first and last trump card. It is the continuous accumulation of magic institutions, and finally forms something like a magic fortress.
As its master, the magician can greatly improve his own strength within his own position with the help of preparations, while the enemy's magic or mystery is correspondingly restricted to a certain extent.
Increase your own abilities.
Limit the enemy's performance.
Well, it's nice and easy to understand.
And above the ordinary magic workshop, there is a temple-level position, which is an upgraded version of the workshop... And this "field" that is being attacked by many heroes who protect humanity and the last master of mankind is exactly The ultimate form of expression.
——Time Crown Temple.
A small universe created based on a certain magician's magic circuit can even exist outside the timeline. It has an inherent barrier that can continue to exist as long as there is magic power...
The owner of this unprecedented magic workshop is the Magic King Solomon... Of course, this statement is not accurate.
It should be said that it is the "Goetia", a collection of seventy-two demon gods under his command. It is an existence formed by occupying the corpse of King Solomon. It is the beast of original sin that upholds the principle of "mercy". It is a magic with will that is woven in order to gain access to true wisdom, and wants to use all of human history to reach the origin.
Solomon knew the hopelessness and ugliness of mankind, but did not choose to correct it, and finally accepted death.
But the seventy-two demon gods he commanded did not agree. They came to the conclusion that humans and the future were of no value, and feared the end of annihilation. Therefore, Goetia as a collective resumed its activities after the death of King Solomon by inhabiting King Solomon's remains.
Reset the purpose of serving mankind, prove that he is the absolute highest existence on this planet, and reach the extreme that even Solomon could not reach, that is, start the great cause of becoming a god.
Goetia sent various demon gods to the future and set several breaking points into the course of human history, causing the collapse of human nature. However, this is at best a means, not the ultimate goal.
Because it doesn't do it to obliterate humans, it does it to use humans.
What it seeks is to trace that life back 4.6 billion years before the birth of this planet, to experience the moment when the "celestial body" in this field was born, and to collect all the energy at that time into its own.
In other words, let yourself become a "new celestial body" and create a new world without death. However, time travel on this scale is beyond human reach, and even Goetia is still beyond its capabilities.
However, just like the Time Crown Temple, in its essence, it is still a magic workshop.
The essence of magic, to put it bluntly, is to use one's own power to make something possible, spending a lot of time and energy to make it possible. Although magic can make things appear to happen instantly, it actually requires a lot of preparation beforehand.
It's similar to science on a certain level, although the methods are different, but it's the same in that you have to make sacrifices to achieve your goals.
Therefore, although Goetia cannot directly achieve this goal, after three thousand years of planning and preparation, it can still have a chance to successfully activate this technique.
What is indispensable for flying to the past is immense energy, so in order to obtain the energy to fly to the past, in order to witness the birth of celestial bodies, in order to control all these moments and infinite adjustments.
A plan of this scale requires a huge amount of magic power. After precise calculations, if all human history from its birth to the modern twenty-first century is converted into magic power, the magic power obtained will be enough to enable it to initiate time travel and leap forward. Go to the beginning of the star.
therefore--
It is not because of hatred that humans are destroyed. The reason for burning humans is just for this reason. It is just the fuel for the actual activation of its magic.
It's a pity that, just like in the story, evil can never win. Now that the headquarters of the Time Crown Temple is being attacked, it means that all the unique points it has entered into human history have been eliminated one by one, and the enemy has already rushed to kill them. Goetia came forward.
Xia Ran thought calmly... After all, it's okay not to be calm. Now he can only watch like this and can't do anything.
There is only the existence of thinking and perception, and nothing else. He can't figure out what state he is in now. Although he has also thought about whether he is recorded on the Heroic Soul Seat and is about to be summoned by the "protagonist". This will happen.
But as time went by, he overturned this conjecture.
It’s not that he will never lend a helping hand or respond to the summons, nor that the “protagonist” can’t summon him without holy relics or something – there’s no need to worry about this at all, he will still be happy to do so if necessary. Helpful.
After all, helping the other person is like helping the past self, and there is a strange feeling of nostalgia.
Moreover, the other party had the special ability to contract with multiple servants at the same time with the help of Mashu's shield. Basically, he had never used the holy relics to summon. He only relied on his compatibility and the world's self-rescue cooperation to meet him by chance. Each and every legendary heroic spirit.
Even the current situation is the same——
The huge torrent of followers, even more numerous than the seventy-two demon gods, are frantically fighting for their master and the enemy on the opposite side. The fierce battle is starting in the entire space. .
However, there was no catalyst and no summoner. The summoning spell was initiated spontaneously, relying only on the thin thread of fate that had been formed.
It is the same even now, there are still cavalry servants appearing continuously, countless spiritual reactions are increasing, piercing the night sky and turning into meteor showers, descending on this battlefield one after another.
The heroic spirits gathered in this field, who are worth a thousand and have a thousand enemies, even if they are incompatible enemies, even if they are people of different eras who have no intersection, now they entrust each other's back.
Just like they roared, roared, and swayed with blood and determination.
"It's not to prevent human incineration..."
"But to open up a way forward for our contractors!"
In addition, the Temporal Crown Temple is outside of time, and the Heroic Soul Seat itself is also a mechanism that transcends the timeline, so this magic workshop becomes a sieve. Servants can rely on their own wishes and the fate they have formed, and Come proactively.
However, Xia Ran did not realize the opportunity to summon himself. Although a stable link was established, which could be regarded as a line of fate and cause and effect, he did not know what to do to actively enter that space.
If he could, he would have rushed there long ago. After all, what could be better than doing it here and watching?
It's a pity that he seems to really only have his thinking consciousness here, and can only watch scenes happening far away in time and space...
"It's inexplicable. Should I be allowed to appear? If I don't do anything, what's going on with my state?"
The magician felt a little depressed, but he quickly adjusted his mood and began to focus on the "nodes" that just resonated with him. Maybe these are the key to breakthrough?
Focusing his attention on the most conspicuous "node", he saw a girl with blond hair and blue eyes, who looked very similar to Artoria, and was waving the holy flag bravely.
"..."
"..."
It's really baffling, how did I have a causal connection with this saint? Xia Ran sighed in his heart, but that kind of feeling couldn't lie. Could it be that he was able to reverse the idol theory for the same reason as Artoria?
This is too far-fetched, right?
But speaking of Arturia... Looking around the entire battlefield subconsciously, Xia Ran unexpectedly discovered that there was no figure of the King of Knights at all. After she was included in the space system, her existence also had the extension and protection of space rules.
To put it simply, it is unique and has some characteristics of the second magic, although this is not a passive effect that she can actively control.
This also leads to the fact that although there is a legend about King Arthur, he is no longer in the Throne of Heroes and cannot be summoned in any world line... But this is really a pity. It seems that many versions no longer exist?
Swimsuit version, maid costume version, mature gun-nerd version...
Although they are just different IFs of the same person, well, maybe I can let Saber try cross-dressing later. One Saber can have hundreds of styles, which may make up for some regrets.
It's just some regrets about the figure, and it seems there is nothing that can be done about it.
But having said that, if this is the case, then the changes in this world line will be very huge. For example, in the singularity where Fuyuki is burned and polluted, the "protagonist" and his party should not be able to encounter the blackened Knight King.
It is also very possible that the sixth singularity is not Camelot at all. If it is, something must have happened...
Vaguely, Xia Ran felt a flash of inspiration and seemed to have grasped something. However, when he thought about it carefully, he had no clue. After all, the information was too scarce and he could not piece together any decent outline for the time being.
