Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

Subtitle: Imaginary God's Throne·The Almighty God of Destruction and Creation

Speaking of which, there is indeed such a setting.

Professor Leif's identity in Chaldea does include serving as the instructor of the Lion Team. Nowadays, the surviving young people in Chaldea are basically the Lion Team. Leif's way of presenting himself as a teacher and then writing the questions, That makes sense.

That is to say.

The so-called exam in BB's mouth, the so-called explanation of what happened in the video just now, is actually to let the magicians present analyze the composition principles of the magic performed by Professor Leif on the spot.

The magic test is no different from the math test. Everyone has different solutions that suit them, but there is basically one point that cannot be avoided.

--'inspiration'

Yes, the magic in this world is "theoretically omnipotent" in the field of application. After all, even the power of God King Zeus can be used by a magician with a piece of dry animal skin.

The magic formulas in this world are 'theoretically omnipotent'. The reason why we say theoretically omnipotent rather than omnipotent is because when magicians construct the magic formula, the biggest problem is not 'how to construct the technique'.

The biggest problem is 'finding a way to construct the spell that won't be banned'.

To put it bluntly, the essence of constructing a super magic ritual is to ‘find ways to cheat’.

Although the upper limit of magic itself is almost unlimited omnipotent power, various rules and powers, including inhibition, will prevent magic from taking effect almost pervasively.

If there were not all kinds of restrictions on magicians by the power of these rules, countless magicians would have promoted themselves to gods of war or gods of killing by starting endless wars.

However, for the magic students who answer questions, although they are still far from being restricted by the power of rules, when they face such questions from their instructors, almost all of them have no answers.

There is absolutely no way this large-scale magic ritual can be 'completed'.

But since it was completed, it must have taken advantage of a loophole in the rules, or cheated during the design stage of the spell.

The analysis of this kind of magic is not so much about analyzing the magic as it is about thinking about what methods were used to cheat and what loopholes were exploited.

Rather than thinking directly, it is better to hope for inspiration. Some people at the scene took out paper and pen and started scribbling in search of "inspiration". Some people began to burn the spices they carried with them. Some people put on earphones and started listening to music with their eyes closed. Too weak, someone started to hypnotize himself with a copper plate.

There are even those who start to dance to the gods and take out a knife and cut their wrists to commit suicide in search of "reception from heaven and man".

It's rare for someone like Su Xiaoqiang to look up information and textbooks honestly.

For a moment, there was a flurry of demons in the headquarters, but this was precisely because everyone was very serious, and everyone was desperately trying to retrieve the missing bad boy.

Even though everyone knows very well in their hearts, when faced with this kind of problem, the person they really have to rely on is Chaldea’s current development minister, the Renaissance genius Caster, Leonardo da Vinci.

Think about it.

There should be a lot of tips.

Rome, Pantheon, Trident

Of course, the most important clue is Cardo who forcibly restored part of the function of the observation lens Sheba from BB and obtained clues to the names of the three gods "Poseidon", "Nipton" and "Set" gram.

With these clues that Kadoc has figured out, the real answer should be just one step away.

What exactly is the super-level magic performed by Professor Leif?

How did he do it?

What loophole was exploited?

How to cheat?

——Think about it

".Place, era background."

Da Vinci muttered.

Speaking of the most common cheating method in magic and the easiest way to circumvent the rules, it is naturally celestial magic that borrows the power of the universe.

The future is the era of the universe. No matter how many years are left, this is the only thing that has been confirmed by human theory. Therefore, it is relatively easy to bypass the rules and restrictions by borrowing the power of the universe.

But even so, the development of celestial magic is still difficult in modern times, and its shortcoming is simply that it is too expensive.

The performance of celestial magic requires an observatory and a stargazing center. The more powerful the celestial magic, the larger the venue. The larger the area, the higher the cost. As a result, celestial magic has not only become a national-scale financial resource. It’s something that comes with playing, and there’s a serious imbalance between investment and unstable rewards.

——Of course this is not the point

Roman culture was inherited from Greek culture, and Greek culture was closely related to the constellations. The prototype of the constellation culture was the Star God culture, and the origin of the Star God culture was the ancient Chaldean Kingdom.

Professor Leif's magic attribute is imaginary numbers, but he is Olga Marie's mentor after all. As the best imaginary number magician, he must also have good attainments in celestial magic.

The most important thing about celestial magic is the most efficient use of the ritual venue. This idea is also the most suitable for constructing and launching large-scale super-level magic.

Roman ceremonial venue.

It really is that one, right?

Temples within temples, considering the connection between gods and constellations, the Roman and Greek temples themselves could also function as part of the 'observatory grounds'.

That's right.

Built in 27 BC, it was praised by Michelangelo as "the design of an angel". It is the temple of Rome and the temple of temples - the Pantheon (Pantheon).

With the singularity of that era as the stage and the Roman Pantheon as the ritual venue, with these two conditions existing, the difficulty of performing super-large-scale magic related to mythology can almost be said to be reduced to a minimum.

(But even so, it shouldn’t be to the extent that it can sink the entire European continent so easily)

Kadoc observed the spiritual energy reactions of the three pillar gods.

Poseidon of Greece

Neptune of Rome

Seth of Egypt

The first two are easy to say. Although there are elements of integration in later generations, the Roman gods are largely directly inherited from the Olympus gods in Greek mythology. Neptune and Poseidon are almost the same in mysticism. equal.

Therefore, the real key clue must be the third one, Seth.

Speaking of Set, Lu Mingfei's first thought was probably Seto Kaiba from a certain anime.

After all, Seto Kaiba's name "Seto" is pronounced "Set".

In fact, in the history of ancient Egypt, there did exist a pharaoh who was considered to be the prototype of the god Set, and that was Pharaoh Seti I, the father of the famous Ozymandias (Rameses II).

Is this really the case?

Is there such a connection between Set, Poseidon and Neptune?

Generally speaking, when talking about these two main gods, the word "Poseidon" cannot be avoided.

But Seth is more of a life established as the 'god of war'. It is said that he is the god Ra and the guardian of the Pharaoh. He fights with the hell serpent 'Apophis (the god of destruction)' all day long, and finally kills him. he.

Therefore Seth is also called the 'Lord of Power'.

In addition to being the god of war and patron saint of Egypt, Set's duties are the 'god of the desert' and the 'god of storms'. The ancient Egyptians believed that the sandstorms that swallowed travelers in the desert were the wrath of the god Set.

What is the relationship between Seth, Poseidon and Neptune? Although according to the habit of moving everything into the Pantheon in Rome, it would not be surprising if there was Seth in it. After all, as the prototype of God, Mithras, the God of Light, was once a highly popular military god in Rome who could compete with Mars. This is how the Persian military god Veleslana evolved.

The Roman Empire during the time of Emperor Nero also included parts of North Africa and Egypt. It would not be surprising if the god Seth was invited to come over.

By the way, there is a similar prejudice that Poseidon and Neptune are gods of the sea. In fact, the prototypes of these two are natural phenomena. Specifically, it is [earthquakes] that coastal city-state civilizations often deal with.

There are many different versions of Seti. In addition to the idea that Seti I is the prototype that is accepted by most people, Leonardo da Vinci remembered that the Greek historian Herodotus in the 5th century BC proposed another idea. kind of view.

Set was originally a tribe in northwest Africa who spoke the Berber language family of the Semitic language family - the god worshiped by the Berbers was a god of fertility that was directly related to the ocean, fishing and hunting civilization.

This statement seems to directly connect the god Seth with Poseidon.

But it's very far-fetched.

In fact, the Berbers are not a single ethnic group. They are a collective name for many tribal peoples with similar cultural, political and economic life.

The name Berber is not originally what the Berbers call themselves, but comes from the Latin word barbarian (barbari), similar to the commonly known "barbarians" in the Eastern Central Plains culture.

--No

To a magician, it doesn't matter what the truth is.

Just have the elements you need.

——Speaking of it

The phantom of the Titan summoned by Professor Leif that he had seen before appeared in Da Vinci's mind.

Another very prominent feature of that phantom is that it has a body that is different from metallic luster and has a 'body of mineral'.

It’s even easy to mistake it for a stone statue

[Da Vinci’s reasoning judgment. If the judgment fails, Lu Mingfei will need to wait more time (until the correct answer is obtained) before he can get assistance from Chaldea.]

[Difficulty: 150]

[Da Vinci’s ‘inspiration’: 1D100=97]

[Skill·Talent’s Wisdom EX: 1D50=6 (Talent’s Wisdom.jpg)]

[Skill·Star Pioneer EX: 1D50=20]

[Kadok’s great success information support: 40]

【97 + 6 + 20 + 40=163＞150】

【success! 】

——This feature gave Leonardo da Vinci a sudden inspiration

Then I thought of another anecdote related to the god Seth.

It is said that one day there was an earthquake on the edge of the desert, and the earth cracked. Under the deep section, people discovered bone-like mineral veins. The frightened people began to think about which god this was the wrath of, and which god they should pray to. To obtain forgiveness.

Because God Set's old enemy in Egyptian mythology - mainly the business competition for the identity of 'Guardian God' - God Horus is the 'God of the Sky', so the God of Set is often considered to be the corresponding 'Earth' god'.

Earthquakes were therefore considered to be the wrath of the god Seth.

And those underground mineral veins that were exposed due to the earthquake got a name——

——[Bone of Seth]

Therefore, among the Egyptian gods who are mostly animal personifications, God Seth also has the possibility of another image, that is, the body of the god made of minerals.

This corresponds to the phantom that Professor Leif called earlier.

The key point here is that in this anecdote about the "Bone of Seth", God Seth can be read and understood in occult terms to understand another kind of 'divine role'.

That is - God of Earthquakes

Da Vinci's eyes suddenly lit up! Various natural disaster scenes in the video footage flashed through his mind one by one, and he finally formed the correct answer.

He figured it out!

The answer is this——

Da Vinci picked up the microphone, looked at BB who was so bored that he was rolling around on the screen like a virtual pet, and gave his answer.

"Poseidon and Neptune are naturally the gods of the sea, but the key linking them with Seth is the essence of the power of the sea god among the twelve Olympus gods - he is also the 'earth-shaking god' ', 'God of Earthquakes'"

"For the civilizations of coastal city-states, the ocean is a complex existence. It is not only a symbol of "fertility" that breeds life and brings harvest, but also the "storm" on the sea will mercilessly swallow up life. Poseidon itself has complex good and evil qualities. With dual attributes, people will be grateful to him for the harvest of fishing and hunting, but they will also worship him when facing his anger."

"Speaking of Poseidon's wrath, it is naturally a [tsunami] that can destroy everything. However, this is just an impression. For the civilization of coastal city-states, the so-called tsunami is not considered to be the essence. To put it bluntly, tsunamis are just incidental. The product of the earthquake, what really scares them is [earthquakes], which are the eruptions of submarine volcanoes that cause earthquakes! And tsunamis are just a by-product of earthquakes!”

"Earthquake! This is the essence of Poseidon's priesthood. Poseidon is not even the God of War. The description of Poseidon's trident among the three brothers of the Greek main god is also "can crush everything". In other words, "God of Strength" Together with the [God of Destruction], Poseidon’s true characteristics are!”

“And the ultimate manifestation of [destruction] is the disaster that will be accompanied by volcanic eruptions and tsunamis, two types of coastal city-state civilizations-[earthquakes]!”

"[The Earth-Shaking God of Destruction], this is the true function of Poseidon!"

BB smiled and nodded. Seeing that the members of Chaldea were frantically trying to touch their spiritual vision inspiration, they all breathed a sigh of relief, but BB's next words made their hearts jump into their throats.

"Well, what then? Continue."

continue? Can this continue?

Couldn't the earth-shaking God of Destruction have already explained the image that resembles the trinity of the sea god Poseidon, Neptune and Seti? There is nothing wrong with the earthquake, tsunami, and volcanic eruption that destroyed the Roman Empire in the picture. Doesn’t this explain everything?

Hasn’t everything in the video been explained?

He must have used this principle of the "Earth-shaking God of Destruction" to gather the power of the three pillars of gods to destroy the Roman world, right? Is there anything else that hasn't been explained?

——Da Vinci smiled.

"Indeed, it's not over yet. After all, it's all said and done. According to the magician's mystical theory, Poseidon can go further and even super-evolve beyond the original mythology at this point."

The Chaldean employees looked at each other.

What does this mean?

No one dared to interrupt Leonardo da Vinci. Everyone believed that this genius, who was known as the omnipotent man, could give the correct answer, guide them to move forward, and save the poor man who had been lost for who knows how many times. Get him back.

“The truth is actually very simple”

"The essence of Poseidon is the god of destruction, and the essence of earthquakes is the eruption of submarine volcanoes. So - of course, there is another way to answer it."

"Undersea volcanic eruptions will be accompanied by earthquakes and tsunamis, but in addition, the lava erupted by the volcano will gradually accumulate upward, forming underwater hills and stone pillars. After thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years, the erupted material will gradually accumulate upwards. The more they accumulate, the higher they pile up, and the seamounts hidden under the water finally emerge from the sea, forming islands, which are commonly known as volcanic islands.”

"For people living in mainland China, this may just be a very rare phenomenon."

"But for the coastal city-state civilization whose life depends on the connection between islands by ships - for the Greek civilization, the phenomenon of islands being created along with earthquakes has truly expanded their living areas, that is - [Creation A move of the world!"

"That's right!"

"The dual characteristics of [destruction] and [creation], and then limiting the world view to the perspective of people of that era, Poseidon's ability can be interpreted as the authority of the [Creator]. He brings fertility and death. He comes to Bringing destruction and rebirth, he brings destruction and creation—"

"The omnipotent authority, this is Poseidon, who restricts the limited world view in the era of singularity - [Almighty God Poseidon]!"

"This is the real name of the magic performed by Professor Leif!"

Poseidon himself was untouchable.

But it can be a virtual supreme throne created by the hands of a demon-level magician.

The destructive power of earthquakes proves Poseidon's nature as the God of Destruction.

Based on this, combined with the islands that appear in reality, it is proved that the power of the God of Destruction is equal to the power of the God of Creation.

It's like a number [imaginary number] that doesn't really exist but was named by Descartes.

The God of Imaginary Numbers: The Almighty God of Destruction and Creation

Poseidon.

"Is this the so-called [King of Singularity] that Professor Leif has prepared for us?"

Da Vinci paused, then added:

"If you feel that this is not enough, I can continue my analysis. If my guess is correct, although the content of the picture you showed us is only destruction, because the power of the Almighty God Poseidon is Destruction and creation coexist, so destruction is only a prerequisite for 'creation'."

"After destruction, the singularity will be reshaped by the demon who manipulates the [Almighty God Poseidon] spell."

"But this statement doesn't match the time of [Amusement Park] you mentioned, so I thought of new clues."

"Speaking of which, one strange thing about the ocean singularity is that it does not have specific spatial coordinates. It is like the 'Sea of ​​Oceanus' in Greek mythology. The Sea of ​​Oceanus is also called [The End of the End]. Sea], the [End Sea] pursued by the Conqueror King Iskandar is Oceanos.”

"Oceanos is the name of the ocean god in Greek mythology. It is said that all oceans and ocean currents will flow to an end. That place even transcends the boundaries of time and space. In modern times, rumors such as the Bermuda Triangle have also evolved."

"Yes, even if you are a creation god, you need materials to create the world. In Northern Europe and China, the materials are the corpses of giants, and the materials you use to create new worlds and create 'singularity' are another singularity. "

"The Ocean Singularity, the Sea of ​​Oceanus, the end of all ocean currents, is naturally connected to the ocean in the Roman Singularity. The Aegean Sea, the Mediterranean Sea, etc. must also be among them, right?"

"--there is only one truth!"

"You activated the [Almighty God Poseidon Style] to fuse and reshape the two singular points!"

Da Vinci stated all the conclusions he had deduced in one breath,

Da Vinci was completely confident that what he said was correct.

But beyond that, except for the part she was saying now, Da Vinci was a little confused.

The world of magic is divided into 'things that can be done in theory' and 'things that can be done in practice'.

[Almighty God Poseidon Style]

From a principle point of view, the person who activates this technique is indeed qualified to destroy and create the world.

But if you are qualified, you are qualified. Whether you can actually do it is another matter.

Let’s not talk about whether the world view of the Roman Empire was really destroyed so simply and neatly.

Creation should be more difficult than destruction.

How is it done?

In the part where BB has not yet given information, in addition to the video, the Demon God and the Electronic Heroic Spirit BB must have cheated somewhere else.

but.

Even with these doubts, BB was still very generous and affirmed Da Vinci's answer.

Clap your hands, applaud, and show a mysterious and evil smile.

"Congratulations, at least you got this question right."

"According to the agreement, I will issue the only exception qualification to Chaldea, so let's meet again in the story of the singularity~"

"--correct"

Before BB's figure disappeared, he left behind a meaningful word.

"Videos can be faked. Depending on the shooting techniques, even if they are all real footage, the results can be completely wrong."

"Be specific."

"In the route just now, there are fictional misunderstandings. The ratio of reality to fiction, in my opinion, is about 50-50~"

The figure of the little purple-haired devil girl who came uninvited disappeared.

A palm-sized mechanical device shining with light blue light was left behind. Kadok, Chu Zihang, Su Xiaoqiang and others took a closer look and were a little speechless. They didn't know if it was to implement the joke. What do you think of the appearance of this thing? They are the props called Divine Plan (Digimon Machine) in the anime "Digimon Adventure" that are the childhood memories of countless people.

"This is just too lazy to design an image."

Su Xiaoqiang couldn't help but sigh.

"It's not a comic like "Gintama". Wouldn't there be copyright disputes with this kind of thing?"

Chu Zihang thought in his heart that your nonsense and rants were clearly not what he was talking about.

Of course he wouldn't say it directly.

With BB leaving, all Chaldea's instruments returned to normal. After analysis, everyone discovered that this prop that looked like a sacred plan in "Digimon Adventure" was actually a marking function. Spirit transfer device.

As long as you use this, you can transfer your soul into a new singularity that was born after the fusion of the two singularities of Rome and the Ocean.

However, before entering, Chaldea could not peek into the situation inside, let alone contact Lu Mingfei.

The biggest problem is that this thing can only allow one person to enter the singularity.

However, it is worth mentioning that I don’t know what the specific principle is. If you use this to enter the fusion singularity, you don’t need to consider the adaptability of spirit transfer.

The next thing to discuss naturally came to the matter of 'who goes'.

Although Ma Xiu recommended himself, out of rational considerations, everyone still felt that Chu Zihang should be allowed to go.

In the past, in the worst case scenario, you could use a command spell to move the heroic spirit directly from Chaldea to the singularity, but this function cannot be used this time.

Even Qing Ji expressed her distress that for some reason she couldn't use the [Tracking] skill to forcefully chase Lu Mingfei this time.

In other words, it seems that there is really only one spot available at the moment.

The discussion was very intense, but generally speaking, everyone was leaning towards Chu Zihang, mainly because Qing Ji and Chu Zihang were fighting.

And the discussion cannot last too long, and the results must be given as soon as possible.

Kadoc stood silently on the edge of the crowd, looking at the light blue divine plan on the table, somewhat lost in thought.

He seemed to have thought of something, and there seemed to be some clues, but they hadn't been discovered yet, and he couldn't clearly describe what they were for a while.

Caddoc didn't know what the overlooked clue was.

I just instinctively felt that this clue was important.

Right Lu Mingfei is wrong.

is very important to Caddock himself.

--what exactly is it?

ignored clues

[Due to the special category, only Kadok present may detect this clue]

[Difficulty: 65]

[Kadoc’s ‘inspiration’: 1D100=67]

--Sudden

The quick beeps of old-time pagers are heard again in the Divine Plan.

(BGM: butterfly)

It seemed to be urging the people in Chaldea to make a quick choice.

Kadok stared at the divine plan and listened to the prompt sound. In the animation of "Digimon Adventure" played by BB, the prompt music means "Call of the Digital World"

——[Call of the Digital World]?

Kadok shuddered violently, his mind went blank for a moment, and an incredible idea emerged in his mind.

What if BB is not joking?

What if BB is seriously passing on information to Chaldea and others through this method?

【Call of the Digital World】

This is the answer.

Answers that can answer those puzzles in Leonardo da Vinci's mind.

How can the world be destroyed easily, and how can it be created easily?

In reality, there are too many things to consider.

But what if we were in a world made of data, in the digital world?

In the digital world, or in other words, in the spirit network world!

Destruction is just one-click deletion, and creation is writing a code program, or even copying and pasting the code that has been prepared.

If it were in the world of Lingzi Network, then all this would change from 'theory' to 'possibility'.

(BB also mentioned words like electronic heroic spirits from the future before!)

(Don’t you think so? Could it be that this fusion singularity is actually what I think it is? If it is really like this——)

When Kadok came back to his senses, everyone in the headquarters was staring at him.

Kadok was stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was Prelati, Prelati's illusionary phantom, who raised his hand.

So, in the eyes of others, it was him who raised his hand on his own initiative.

【Kadoc's 'Determination'.】

[Requirement: 50]

【1D100=66】

[The type of decision is. (It will have a direct impact on the subsequent plot)]

[1. I will save the good-for-nothing Junior Brother this time! (Appears near Lu Mingfei)]

【2. A chance to prove yourself! (Appears near the Heroic Spirit Summoning Node)】

【1D2=2】

Kadoc gritted his teeth.

He suppressed the excitement and excitement deep in his heart.

(This time, it’s my chance! It’s the chance to prove my worth!)

(Let me change the fate of Chaldea, that loser!)

Prelati, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, pushed Kadok one last time.

Then, he stated all his reasoning.

Of course, this only opportunity fell into his hands.

Bring all your equipment.

Kadok grasped the sacred plan and obtained the qualifications for a special case. As a chosen child, in the flashing light of the data, he saw a tsunami appear out of thin air and hit his face!

The tsunami swept him into it, and his figure disappeared from Chaldea and went to the depths of the sea of ​​​​network——

Welcome to the digital world, this is the imaginary world, the sea of ​​​​spiritual networks.

The adventure is getting deeper and deeper!

←to be continued!

My head is a little dizzy, and I feel that the previous part of the magic principles may not be clearly written, but I think it’s all written down roughly (

)

I'll see if I have anything to add when I have time.
