In the tradition of ancient Egypt, every pharaoh is regarded as the incarnation of a god, and when summoned as a heroic spirit, he will bring a certain degree of divinity.
Although in the game, the role of divinity is not obvious, it even has a completely negative effect in front of some servants who have special attacks against divinity.
But in fact, divinity has a considerable bonus to the attack and defense of heroic spirits, which is similar to the mystery given by Lu Xiao's unique skills of the job, but divinity has resistance in both physical and magical aspects.
Nitocris possesses B-level divinity, and attacks with insufficient divinity and mystery cannot even break through her divinity defense and harm her main body.
After getting rid of the evil spirit that attacked him, Lu Xiao used his flexible footwork to avoid the eye cannon attack of God Medjed, and approached Nitocris step by step.
The physical abilities of spellcasters are usually not very strong, and they need to rely on distance to obtain sufficient magic chanting time. Once they are close, their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
"bite!"
The sword that Lu Xiao swung at Nitocris was so fast that Nitocris was hit before she even had time to react.
However, he was tempted and the Immortal Slashing Blade without killing intent failed to cut through Nitocris' skin, and was blocked by an invisible barrier on her body surface.
"How disrespectful!"
A dark magic power erupted from her body and forced Lu Xiao back. Nitocris held her head high and reprimanded: "The Pharaoh is the spokesperson of the gods walking on the earth. How can a mere mortal want to hurt our noble body?"
The goal of Lu Xiao's mission is to help Chaldea correct the distortion of the sixth singularity. His enemy is the Lion King sitting in the Holy City, not the Egyptian forces behind Nitocris. There is no need to fight with Nitocris.
Chris is dead set.
The Immortal Slash defeated the pursuit of the evil spirits that Nitocris released under her nervousness point to point. The ability to attack the immortality made the evil spirits summoned by Nitocris subconsciously dodge away.
"Spellcaster."
After repelling another wave of attacks from the opponent, Lu Xiao asked Nitocris, who looked a little surprised: "Why are you attacking me for no reason?"
Nitocris looked solemnly at the sword that exuded an ominous aura in Lu Xiao's hand. In order to maintain the majesty of the Pharaoh, she still put on an arrogant posture that was not suitable for her: "You broke into the Pharaoh's palace without permission.
Territory, I am only exercising the lord’s authority on behalf of the Pharaoh to expel you from the territory.”
"That's strange."
Lu Xiao's eyes with a faint golden light looked towards the far horizon behind Nitocris.
“Aren’t those lifeless tin cans considered intruders?”
"What?"
Nitocris turned around in astonishment. At the far edge of the desert, dozens of ragged refugees were fleeing hastily around the desert area. Behind these refugees were a group of armored knights pursuing them on horseback.
The knight riding the war horse easily caught up with the refugee who could only rely on his legs to escape, and the weapon in his hand cut into the refugee's body mercilessly.
Even if she couldn't hear the sound in the distance, Nitocris could still imagine the screams at the scene.
"you……"
Nitocris looked at Lu Xiao suspiciously, a little wary of his eyes that had returned to darkness.
'I used magic to strengthen my eyesight so that I could barely see the blurry scene in the distance. Does this person have the magic eye of observation? Or...clairvoyance?'
According to the standards of the Xingyue world, Lu Xiao can be regarded as possessing the observation-type magic eye while possessing clairvoyance.
Not all demonic eyes have powerful direct attack capabilities like Fujino's twisted demonic eye.
Most of the functions of the magic eyes are auxiliary, even the Death Eye, which has the highest rainbow-level rating among all the magic eyes, is no exception.
When activated, the Evil Eye of Direct Death allows the holder to see the line of death of all things. As long as it is cut along the line of death, all objects or concepts will be given death from the source, and no healing methods will be effective.
However, the premise is that the owner of the Death Eye can understand the concept of the target's death. If the opponent's mystery is too high, the Death Eye cannot see the death line on the opponent's body.
The conditions for obtaining the Eye of Direct Death are very strict. First, the holder must die once.
Death here does not mean near death, but a real death.
This condition alone will block 99% of people. After all, there are very few magicians who have real means of resurrection.
Moreover, being able to be resurrected does not necessarily mean that you can awaken the Demonic Eye of Death. The conditions for the second awakening are equally demanding and require the talent to see and understand death.
As far as Lu Xiao knows, there are only two people in the Xingyue World who have the Demonic Eye of Direct Death.
One is the two rituals that Lu Xiao has seen before, but has not yet experienced death and awakened his abilities.
The other one is Tohno Shiki in the Tsukihime timeline, whose original name is Nanaya Shiki, a descendant of the Nanaya family, one of the four great demon exorcism families.
There are many other types of magic eyes, such as Medusa's petrification and demonization, the future-seeing magic eyes owned by Kanbuko's mother and Shizune Seo, and the enchantment magic eyes of Shirahime Arquette and Aozaki Yuko, etc.
wait.
A bunch of messy information flashed through her mind. Nitocris looked hesitantly at the massacre in the distance, then turned to look at Lu Xiao who had withdrawn her intention to fight.
Nitocris was hesitant and finally decided to ask her superiors for their opinion.
Putting her hand to her ear, Nitocris whispered a few words in a low voice.
As if she had received instructions from her superiors, the female pharaoh glared at Lu Xiao angrily and turned around to head towards the edge of the desert.
Nitocris met up with several other sphinxes on the way forward. The two that were destroyed before were swallowed up by the desert and soon disappeared.
'Does the Pharaoh have power within his own territory?'
Before Lu Xiao could continue thinking, the sudden shadow above his head made him raise his head alertly.
Three figures screaming loudly fell from the sky and fell into the soft desert at the same time.
"Pooh!"
The first person to stand up was a dignified beauty with long brown hair, but her slightly rude behavior was different from her elegant appearance. At this time, she was frowning and spitting out the sand in her mouth to the ground.
Raising her hands to cover the scorching sun above her head, the brown-haired woman curled her lips in disgust: "Why is it a desert? If I had known it would come to the desert, I should have made more preparations in advance."
This woman is very familiar to Lu Xiao. He fought with her against his biggest enemy in the Holy Grail War last year.
"Leonardo?"
"Um?"
Hearing the call from not far away, Da Vinci turned her head in shock, and what came into her sight was a heavily armed stranger.
The other person had a black hood on his head and a face covering, and he could only barely tell from his outline that he was of Oriental race.
Da Vinci looked back and forth at the stranger in front of him in confusion: "You... know me?"
The Heroic Soul Seat is an existence that transcends time. Every time a heroic spirit from the lower realm returns to the Heroic Soul Seat, the relevant memories will be blocked.
However, this shielding effect is not absolute. Part of the memory can still be restored with a strong enough bond.
Da Vinci's unfamiliar and wary attitude was unexpected by Lu Xiao. She mentioned this herself before returning to the Throne of Heroes last time.
Lu Xiao took off his hood, revealing a face that was very familiar to Da Vinci.
"Maybe you won't believe it, but I once fought alongside you in the Fourth Holy Grail War in a parallel world."
"you……"
Da Vinci's eyes were full of doubts and confusion. The omnipotent intuition told her that Lu Xiao was not lying, but she had no relevant memory in her mind.
"Let's talk later."
Lu Xiao glanced at the man and woman behind Da Vinci. The black-haired male young man was wearing a very familiar Chaldean magic dress, while the pink-haired girl's body was covered in purple-black metal armor, which was strangely exposed.
Lu Xiao was speechless.
'As expected of a sexy eggplant.'
His eyes flickered to the two of them, and Lu Xiao turned his gaze to the direction Nitocris had left. A strong woman wearing a skull mask was trying to protect the refugees from retreating under the impact of armored knights. She could still see him from time to time.
She separated several assassins in black from her own shadow.
'Hasan the Hundred-faced, was replaced by me in the Fourth Holy Grail War. I didn't expect to meet her here. This can be regarded as a kind of fate. Let's save her.'
"You three, I'll go ahead and explain the current situation to you later."
