From a botanical point of view, it is impossible for Kotomine Kirei to follow the path of cultivation, but according to the world in Lin Xue's eyes, that guy is indeed seeking a very powerful power.
The red moon is a huge energy source. Even Avalon has difficulty in peering through the thick sea of energy on its surface to see a trace of its internal secrets. Even Lin Xue's eyes will almost be turned away by it. That
What exactly is this thing? There is no record of similar celestial bodies even in the empire's database. What is certain at present is that it is not a physical planet, but more like a pure energy body, but it can produce obvious mass effects and gravity.
, According to Tavel's current inference, to initially reveal the mystery of the red moon's structure, we may have to wait at least half a month at the normal research speed.
If there are no more breakthrough developments.
"Keep paying attention, we have plenty of time anyway."
I know that everyone in the Shadow City has really tried their best. Although the appearance of a celestial body that cannot even be explained by imperial technology is very surprising, even though I am sure that 50% of the imperial commanders will still be there in the past few days.
Selling consecrated emeralds and pancake fruits in the streets of K City, even though I firmly believe that Cicaro still insists on developing his piracy empire in the back alleys of Nanfu Street, even though I know very well that even the shadow
Every day, more than half of the imperial generals in the city are using their extra psionic energy crystals to bet on "how long will His Majesty the Emperor continue to use his identity as a photography enthusiast to deceive others?" However, I still want to believe that they are really working hard...
…
Work hard, sister!
I can't think of it, but just thinking about the daily life of those pain-stricken Imperial soldiers when they are bored makes me feel extremely sad.
"In short, let everything take its course," I shook my head, throwing away those cheating imperial soldiers, and then added uneasily, "Especially for you, I know that prophet is a very buggy profession.
But your eyes are not omnipotent. This red moon always makes me feel that something is wrong. If you really can't see through it, don't force it. Although Tavel's research team is less efficient than you, at least they have a higher safety factor."
"Wow, you care about me?" Lin Xue immediately exclaimed pretending to be surprised. I knew I couldn't give this girl a good look at all!
"Ah, by the way," after a few seconds of silence, the other party suddenly said, as if remembering something, "Idiot, did you sleep well that night?"
I almost smoked it in one breath!
This girl, it's okay if I don't say it, but it reminds me when I say it, since she can hint in advance, that is to say, our Great Prophet Lin has actually used his prophetic ability to see everything that will happen that night?
Well, it shouldn't be enough to see everything. Although she has almost thrown away her moral integrity and so on, Lin Xue at least still has the reserve of a girl. Well, in theory, she should still have the reserve of a girl. Watch the whole scene like this
She can't do anything exciting yet, but...
It always feels weird, being given a warning in advance by a girl like "push me down and pay attention".
"I said, can't you usually study other things?"
With a headache of 120,000, I made an almost habitual protest against Lin Xue for always using his ability to peek everywhere, but no surprise, this protest still had little effect.
"Who said I didn't study other things! I saw it. It will be cloudy and sunny in Fuyuki City tomorrow and there will be short-term windy weather in the afternoon. The sunshine intensity is weak and it is suitable for short trips!"
Sure enough, the topic was changed.
"By the way, Mu Mu, have you figured out how to explain to Qianqian when you go back?"
Sure enough, Lin Xue came here sincerely to cause trouble for me. She really doesn't care about anything!
However, this problem is really unavoidable. Although the other party suddenly mentioned this matter, which is very confusing, I must admit that Lin Xue really provided me with an object of discussion in my tangled state, even though this object did not look very good.
Looks very reliable.
"Qianqian, she must be very sad, right?"
After being silent for a few seconds, I seemed to be talking to myself, but there is no such thing as talking to myself in a mental connection. This thought that slipped by lightly naturally reached Lin Xue's ears completely.
As a result, the other party directly complained and killed: "So, you are a piece of wood, and you are a harem, a devil, a pervert, but more importantly, you are a piece of wood for a fool!"
"Why did I offend you again?"
"It's okay, I just said it smoothly... Well, to be honest, you are also struggling in your heart, which somewhat makes me change my view of you." Lin Xue calmly brushed off the series of complaints, and then suddenly became serious, "But
You can feel a little more at ease. Since Qianqian can take the initiative to accept Shandora at the beginning, she must have thought of this. In contrast, Shandora should be the same, so no matter which one of them you are with
They couldn't control it, in fact they were all prepared in advance..."
"You don't want to tell me that Qian Qian will have no reaction at all, right?"
I was surprised, but I didn't believe this possibility myself.
"What a beautiful idea you have!" Sure enough, Lin Xue immediately called me, "It is a great miracle that a girl can make up her mind to share her lover with others. How is it possible that she can remain indifferent under such circumstances?
!That only appears in the brainless ones, right?
However, you can rest assured. Although you will definitely be depressed and jealous, I am afraid that Qianqian and Sandora have already reached a tacit understanding. If you comfort her when you come back, you should be able to turn the danger into good.
Anyway, at worst I will cry a little at your funeral..."
This young lady is not cute at all!
Fortunately, Lin Xue did not get too entangled in this topic, and we quickly returned to the main business.
After briefly explaining the situation in Shadow City these past few days, we ended our correspondence.
It was an uneventful day, and the time gradually reached evening. Night fell slowly. Fuyuki City, which had been active all day, finally calmed down. However, in a place unknown to ordinary people, the wave of uneasiness was gradually rising. Today, it is destined to
Some people will disappear from this world forever.
We plan to launch a surprise attack on the Matou family tonight.
"I wonder if Kotomine Kirei can remain calm this time."
On the way closer to Matou's house, Emiya said as if talking to himself.
"I don't know, no one knows what he is thinking," Tohsaka shook his head, "But if his painstaking plan was broken like this, no one will remain indifferent, right?"
Under the dim night, the tall houses came into view, and the surrounding street lights could not dispel the depressing atmosphere exuded by the mansion itself. It was like a dark silhouette against a gray background, and the Matou family house was shrouded in a haze.
In the middle of the night, I felt the cold rain and wind blowing all around me, there were dark clouds and light surging in the sky, and various unknown ghostly creatures were wandering around the crosses...
Sorry, I'm overthinking this.
In fact, from the outside, it looks like just an ordinary big house.
The only unusual thing was the energy fluctuations surrounding the house. It was obvious that the other party had long been aware of our approach.
I turned my head slightly and saw that the face of the purple-haired girl standing next to Emiya was calm. There was neither fear nor flinching, but there was no anger either. This made me somewhat relieved, whether it was leaving an eternal memory.
Psychological shadows, or being controlled by revenge, are not what I want to see in Sakura. It is simply the best situation for her to be so calm.
"How long do you think the people inside can hold it in?"
I turned my face sideways and asked Sandora.
Shandora said to the other side: "With the two of them here, the people inside won't be able to hold it in for a second!"
I poked my head along and saw Pandora and Viska assembling naval guns. The two little girls' faces were red with excitement, and they were competing to see whose shoulder-mounted photon cannon was more powerful.
"Brother, brother! Can you fire?"
Noticing my gaze, Viska immediately turned around and asked cheerfully.
I was anxious: "Open..."
"Boom! Boom!!"
"joke!!"
Damn it, this fully proves that you can’t use the antecedent of the predicate at critical times!
Tohsaka and Emiya, who were discussing the assault plan a second ago, were frightened by the two loud noises in succession, and then stared dumbly at the unobstructed scenery opposite the Matou residence. The unlucky main residence was there.
It had evaporated instantly under the torrent of photons just now.
"Let me just say, there is no need to study the plan." Emiya shrugged and said to Tohsaka, who was still petrified next to him.
"Ah? This won't kill me, right?" Ilya jumped over and pulled my sleeve curiously, "Brother, can you go back?"
Of course it's not that simple. As soon as Ilya finished speaking, the surrounding space had already fluctuated, just like the scene when we were sucked into the other world at the door of Tosaka's house. However, the main house of Matou that had turned into steam was obviously
We don’t have the capital to perform a paper-cut animation for us.
"It's really uncreative. It's the same scene every time."
Sandora curled her lips and looked at the desolate Gobi desert that looked like it was soaked in blood under the red moonlight and said.
"But this time the opponent's scale is much more creative than last time."
I looked at the smoke and dust that was gradually rising on the distant horizon, and the veins on my forehead popped.
Could that Octavian really be able to extract unlimited energy from the red moon?!
"Hey hey hey...what's going on with this quantity!"
Sasaki carried his beloved sword and bit off the toothpick he had just taken out a few minutes ago, "Heavy infantry, chariots, cavalry, spearmen...are we really fighting a heroic spirit?"
?”
Compared with Sasaki's limited field of vision, through the reconnaissance equipment released at high altitude, what I saw was more shocking than what he saw in front of him. At this moment, the enemy's formation had almost been assembled. It was vivid in my eyes. The last time I faced the Roman Ten Thousand
The human battle formation has shocked everyone, but now, I have to admit that last time it was just an appetizer for the real Roman legion...
Arranged at the front of the battle formation are four huge phalanxes lined up, all composed of heavy infantry armed to the teeth. Each battle formation has at least 5,000 people, half of whom are equipped with powerful heavy infantry.
Javelins, their armor shines under the light of the red moon, showing that Rome's army was well-equipped in its heyday, and between these heavy infantry phalanxes, there are a large number of light cavalry, who are fighting like the wind.
They galloped between the formation and the command team, responsible for delivering orders and coordinating various ministries. More light cavalry equipped with spears formed a wave-shaped array on the flanks. Although I don't understand the formation, it is obvious that these light cavalry
It is used as a surprise attack. If the infantry regiment at the front is violently suppressed by the enemy during the charge, these extremely fast light cavalry will launch a flank attack.
At the rear of these battle formations, there is a slightly smaller number of chariot phalanxes. They are the high-level combat power of the entire legion, but they are arranged at the back of the battle formation. Obviously they will not take part in the early stages of the battle, that is,
Say, to prevent the enemy's "decapitation" operation?
Since I don’t know much about the internal markings of the Roman legions, and the ancient Rome in this world is not necessarily exactly the same as the ancient Rome on earth, I couldn’t find out from the key points surrounding the chariots that they were related to Octavian.
mark, but if I guessed correctly, in such a nearly decisive battle, the opponent must have already appeared.
"Hey, boss, don't be in a daze, think of a way!"
Sasaki's voice brought me back to my senses, and only then did I realize that Tohsaka and the others had already focused their attention on Sandora and me.
Obviously, no one expected that in just one day, the Matou family could prepare such a terrifying and huge legion. The losses they suffered last night were even... wait! Maybe the situation is worse, since the energy source of the Heroic Roman Legion is
Red Moon, then there is no risk of magic supply. In other words, the Matou family may have summoned the entire Roman Empire army in the other world from the beginning and prepared for war. Our attack today is tantamount to falling into
trap!?
"Uncle Alien, on such a scale, even you..." Tohsaka hesitated, his face full of worry. Obviously, the enemy's scale is getting bigger every time, and this time he even pulled out what may be the entire
The entire army of the Roman Empire already put too much pressure on her.
"Why, do you think you can't beat me?"
I raised my eyebrows and looked at Tohsaka funny.
"You definitely can't beat me, right?" Rin glanced at me angrily, "Although you could easily win with 10,000 people last time, Saber and Archer were still injured. This time, the number is even higher than last time.
Several times! Even if you can win, but..."
"It means that even if we can win, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect you, right?"
I immediately pointed out this embarrassing fact for both parties. Tohsaka's face turned red and he immediately said loudly: "Don't speak in such a tone as if we are burdens!"
"That's right." This time, even Arturia stood up seriously. "Although our power is weak, we are not useless decorations. It's just that if it really doesn't work, we need to evacuate. Let's leave."
Yes, but please don’t regard us as a burden because of this, it is an insult!”
I immediately felt a toothache. How dare I accidentally stimulate the opponent's sense of knightly glory just now?
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from the opposite side and suddenly interrupted our conversation: "Give up your resistance. Last time you were lucky enough to win. It was indeed unexpected by me, but this time, in the face of the entire Roman Empire,
As a whole army, even in a wheel battle, you will definitely be exhausted to death, so why not just give up and go back to live in peace?"
"Is that the voice of Matou Zouken?"
I turned my head and asked Sakura for confirmation, and she nodded silently.
"The old man has quite a loud voice," Sasaki said, biting a new toothpick. "Even the general commanding the battle can't shout from such a long distance, right?"
"Maybe it's some kind of amplification magic," Tohsaka said without any surprise, "It's a very simple trick."
I looked at the direction from which the sound came, which was behind the main formation of the Roman legion. Two seconds later, with a look of embarrassment, I casually took out a military telescope and handed it to Tosaka: "Girl, remember
Well, never take things for granted."
Tohsaka took the telescope doubtfully, and after just one glance, he was decisively petrified.
Because the skinny old man in black robe opposite was holding a large loudspeaker in his hand, the kind used for shouting in farmers' markets. Two dry batteries can make noise for a day, but it seems that the loudspeaker in the other person's hand is even bigger.
The number has even reached the point where we can hear it even from such a distance.
Tohsaka was shocked by a loudspeaker, and I took a step forward, raised my voice, turned on the energy resonance to the maximum, and shouted loudly: "The criminal suspect Matou Zangyan across the way
Listen! Your Roman legions are now surrounded by us! I hope you put down the loudspeaker immediately, and we will treat prisoners of war well! Repeat, we will treat prisoners of war well!"
In an instant, a piece of it fell next to it.
"Boss, you're not using this method to cheer us up, are you?" Sasaki bit off the second toothpick of the day and said to me dumbfounded.
Behind the enemy on the opposite side, along with a sharp trumpet sound, Matou Zangyan's voice also sounded: "Hmph, he seems to be a brave man, but I will not show mercy today, so you just die obediently.
Go! Attack!"
The Roman legions who had completed their formation finally took steps following this order. With a deep, majestic and uniform war cry, the earth was shaken as the thousands of troops started to move at the same time!
The battle with tens of thousands of heroic spirits surrounding a dozen people begins again...
Matou Zangyan's arrogant voice echoed across the battlefield: "Haha! Take a look! This is the most powerful heroic spirit in the world! I am the final winner, and only I am qualified to obtain the power of Red Moon!!"
"He's talking nonsense," I spat to the side, and then shouted an order into the air, "Reno! Bring your ship in, use full firepower, and release the landing module! Hit me!!"
