Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

Although due to reasons such as "it would be too long and bloated to describe it in the main story", during the honeymoon period of the cooperation between Chaldea and the Holy King, the relevant technical research and development content was not mentioned (to be precise, there were some judgments , but there is no suitable place to put it in the text, so I didn’t mention it).

But you can see the technical capabilities of both sides during the actual battle. During the cooperation period, whether it was the Holy King who had the self-discipline to develop the machine Noble Phantasm Mobile Holy Capital, or Chaldea who cooperated with it, the relevant technical levels have improved by leaps and bounds. progress.

The same goes for the upgraded version of the Heroic Knight's attire.

However, because Lu Mingfei had the invincible Martha at that time, this thing was of no use at that time, so he never mentioned it.

After the Battle of France, this thing will naturally be put into actual combat.

The only problem right now is

Do you still remember that Kadok mentioned before that after summoning the heroic spirit, he would conduct actual combat exercises with him in the virtual space of Laplace Cyberdemon?

The purpose of this practical exercise is to find out what problems there are in the upgraded version of the Heroic Knight system.

Lu Mingfei's current situation is a bit like a game player who skipped the novice tutorial.

Because of the technical assistance of the Holy King and the invincible player Ka Master, the two concept bottles created by the Ka Master naturally received an upgrade.

[Rabbit] has been upgraded to [Junmin Mode]

[Tank] has been upgraded to [Strike Mode]

These two concept bottles are general auxiliary entries. The former can increase action efficiency by weakening defensive performance, and the latter can enhance power output by weakening speed.

Because it is a very common concept, I won’t go into detail here.

As for why Lu Mingfei insisted on saving these people?

Rather than thinking about this kind of problem, it is better to think about why Lu Mingfei didn't help.

At first, these Chimeras posed no threat to Lu Mingfei. To eliminate them, it was just a matter of chopping up melons and vegetables. As for unruly teammates and the like, Lu Mingfei saw a lot of them when he was the commander-in-chief under the Holy King, so He has long passed the "if you don't like me, I will kill your whole family" middle school age.

Secondly, Kadok also mentioned when he handed the [Friendship Badge] to him, so that he can help anyone who needs help easily. Remember not to do good deeds without leaving your name, and you must let the person he helps Everyone knows that someone is Mr. Lu, and it is best for people to think that Mr. Lu is cool and cool.

"Although I told you how the idealistic power of the [Friendship Badge] works, you don't understand it, but just do as I say. Just think of it as preparing energy bombs for yourself. There will be no harm in doing anything."

Thirdly, the third reason was actually complained by Kazuko just now.

Isn’t it great to pretend to be realistic in front of old classmates, especially those who were better than me in the past?

Lu Mingfei didn't know how much value he could accumulate for the [Friendship Badge] by helping others, but he knew that he would be very satisfied and happy inside!

Sure enough, showing off is a fundamental need of human beings.

"——Henshin!"

The crimson King Arthur armor covered Lu Mingfei's body, as if endless power was pouring out of his body. Immediately, what made Lu Mingfei a little confused was the sound of Kadok's personal voice. rang next to his ear.

"This Holy Grail is a special version for the good-for-nothing Junior Brother. If used by others, there is a high risk of death due to explosion. Remember not to use it indiscriminately."

"Considering that you, loser, cannot naturally produce magic power in your body, I modified some of the settings of the knight system and added a [Dangerous Trigger] device. After the transformation, you do not need to provide magic power yourself, and the consumption of magic power will be passed on to The heroic spirit is basically on the body"

"In other words, the higher the magic attribute of a heroic spirit, the longer it can maintain its transformation. Once the time limit is reached, the self-protection mechanism of [Danger Trigger] will forcibly cancel the transformation."

"This is true in theory, but since we haven't had a chance to verify it yet, there are still many parts that need to be improved and need to be confirmed through actual combat."

Lu Mingfei did not continue to listen to Kadok's selection guide.

Squinting his eyes slightly, the data belonging to King Arthur appeared in Lu Mingfei's mind.

[Saber·King Arthur·Basic Attributes]

[Strength A Durability A Agility D Magic A++ Luck C vs. Magic B]

Turtle, these five-dimensional attributes are a bit outrageous. The basic attributes are completely out of reach for Martha who can't use skills. Oh, it's just that her luck is a bit low. It's normal for her magic power to be inferior to that of a saint with God's bonus.

[After combining with the auxiliary entry of ‘Junmin Form (Rabbit)’]

[Jun-sense Arthur·Basic Attributes]

[Strength A Durability B Agility A Magic A Luck C vs. Magic B]

Lu Mingfei: ".?"

Isn’t this attribute a bit strange? Master Ka, do you have a ridiculous misunderstanding about concepts such as speed mode?

A countdown of the remaining time for transformation appeared on the upper right side of Lu Mingfei's vision.

There are still ten minutes left in this mode.

Lu Mingfei glanced at the group of Chimeras around him.

Ten minutes is enough.

——Think back

Lu Mingfei had fought against the Black Knight King, and no one in Chaldea knew the horror of King Arthur better than Lu Mingfei.

What is King Arthur's strength?

Is it super high firepower output?

No, in terms of firepower output, Chaldea's celestial magic starlight cannon has higher firepower.

King Arthur's power is not simply firepower.

It is her fighting consciousness that makes her attack the enemy with the highest efficiency as natural as breathing.

It is also her miraculous manipulation of the magic power released outside.

Kadok's technology is obviously not high enough to copy and paste abstract things like King Arthur's combat consciousness.

But for Lu Mingfei, who is good at micro-manipulation, he can naturally do fine magic manipulation.

——Everything happens in an instant

Lu Mingfei's transformation, the chimeras roaring, and the snake-like tail spitting out magic bullets to shoot, all happened at the same time.

Although everyone is instinctively looking for a bunker to hide in panic, how many people can take the correct action?

Lu Mingfei and his old classmates are not urban warrior kings.

--but

The red and black magic power, which is reminiscent of the word "storm", suddenly exploded and spread. Under Lu Mingfei's operation, it split accurately and turned into several shield-like bunkers, blocking the Chimera's magic bullets.

Everyone was frightened and looked at Lu Mingfei's armor-covered back with disbelief.

Zhao Menghua, who originally planned to drag Chen Wenwen away, was even more dumbfounded.

People who disliked and despised Lu Mingfei in panic before, whether they were old classmates whose names Lu Mingfei couldn't remember but remembered, or passersby NPCs whom he didn't recognize, all fell silent collectively.

Is this Lu Mingfei?

Facts have proved that it is easy to pretend to be realistic if you have the ability.

But Lu Mingfei didn't feel happy for long.

His operation was a success, but before he could be proud, the countdown number in the upper right corner suddenly dropped by nearly half!

What the hell?

Brother useless brother, what did you design? Don't fool people! I only played for a few seconds after the promised ten minutes, and then I dived into the water and there were only six minutes left! Hey!

In fact, Kadoc cannot be blamed for this.

The only one to blame is Lu Mingfei's bad luck. Who made him fall into Leif's trap with only a 30% chance?

The result of skipping the tutorial guidance is that many hidden problems are not discovered in advance.

For example, Kadoc, like most people, takes it for granted that speed mode consumes less energy than power mode.

But in actual combat it is completely different.

The most prominent part of King Arthur's ability is [Magic Release], which is the manipulation of magic power. The Junmin form does not simply increase the speed, but achieves the effect of increasing speed by accelerating the efficiency of magic power operation.

The problem is that this effect, combined with top laner Mingfei's powerful micro-management ability, actually causes the actual energy consumption to double after the magic efficiency is increased.

still have a question.

The concept bottle of King Arthur obtained by Chaldea is from the 'Saber (Swordsman)' job. Affected by the job, when trying to keep the magic power away from the body for micro-management, the consumption will increase again.

To put it simply, it allows you to kill people in melee, not to micro-manage remotely. If your Saber job can do this without the support of the infinite magic power of the Holy Grail, will the King Arthur of other jobs have any special features?

After realizing this, Lu Mingfei could only gather his magic power and subconsciously made a gesture like holding a sword - and then nothing happened.

no? Where is my holy sword? Where is King Arthur’s holy sword Excalibur?

Oh, it’s still in Sakura Girl’s body!

A thought came to my mind. Another skill that can be used is to summon the floating battleship Ehangulun, but isn't it more expensive?

Lu Mingfei had no choice but to gather the released magic power back into himself, and then returned to his old profession.

Let the magic wrap around your arm.

Then strike hard!

There is no day like this! In my heart, Lu Mingfei, I only have Martha as my eldest sister!

Jacob flow!

iron! fist! Holy! Cut!

"OOLAOOLAOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

☆

After all, they are just ordinary Chimeras. Even if there are a certain number of them, they are still not enough to face the transformation of a first-rate warrior-type Heroic Knight like King Arthur.

They are not weak servants like Sansong or Qingji with terrible data.

After sweeping through the Chimera group, Lu Mingfei's evaluation result was: not as good as Marda.

Although the basic attributes are much higher than Malda's, Malda has several low-cost permanent strengthening skills, and her physical fitness level is actually about the same in actual combat.

But the problem is that under the same circumstances, King Arthur's consumption is really ridiculous compared to Martha.

Even if the effect of the special attack was not mentioned, Lu Mingfei felt that he would not be able to defeat Martha after transforming into the heroic knight King Arthur.

The reason may be that Lu Mingfei does not have the holy sword in his hand now, and Martha's weapon is her fist, her body.

besides!

Lu Mingfei insisted on criticizing this red so-called Junmin form. After actually trying the switch, Lu Mingfei found out that the actual consumption of the Junmin form was much higher than that of the strong attack form!

Because it can use magic power more efficiently, the actual output of Junmin form is also higher than that of strong attack form.

After Lu Mingfei carefully figured it out, he found that instead of using King Arthur's power to fight after the transformation, it was better to use the energy brought to him by King Arthur's spirit base and then use the Platinum Star.

It can only be said that the current King Arthur mode is useless. The root cause is not only that Caddock misjudged and failed to debug it well, but also because there is no holy sword.

Although a Holy Sword user without a Holy Sword can also box and fight, they are definitely not as good as a real fighter.

Lu Mingfei always felt that the Holy Sword of the Stars, which was no longer in his hands, still seemed to occupy a share of the transformation consumption.

Before retrieving the Holy Sword, I'd better not use this King Arthur transformation if I can.

The same goes for the countdown. In actual combat, it seems that the numbers keep fluctuating up and down and jump sideways. At first glance, it seems that the card master did not consider perfection when writing the code.

"As expected, we still need to use a temporary contract to summon heroic spirits within the singularity, right?"

Lu Mingfei was manipulating Platinum Star to peel off the claws of Chimera's corpse to recover materials, while looking at Senior A mustard.

"My luck is really bad. The summoning of heroic spirits seems to have failed before. How about after you find a suitable spiritual node, Senior Jie, can you try your luck with the summons? I heard from the boss that the heroic spirit you plan to summon is Xiang Yu, right?"

"Heroic Spirit. Summon?"

Kazuo did not comment or respond to Lu Mingfei's intention. He just crossed his arms in front of his chest and put on an arrogant posture. Then he turned his head and looked at those people protected by Lu Mingfei. .

Although it cannot be said to be perfect, almost everyone was stained. Some people were even seriously injured by the Chimera's magic cannon and fainted, but they did not die on the spot.

After everyone came to their senses, of course, they surrounded Lu Mingfei.

Everyone's chirping questions and all kinds of "f*ck!" compliments about Lu Mingfei didn't last long.

When they began to ask Lu Mingfei where this power came from and whether they could also possess it, the very impatient Akako interrupted the scene.

Kazuko raised her legs high and stepped on the ground to create a footprint-shaped hole. Then she glared at everyone with cold eyes and pulled Lu Mingfei, who was as airy as Nobi Nobita, to her side with one hand.

Then he glared at Zhao Menghua, who looked like the little leader of this team: "Lead the way! Take us to see the Chaldean man you are talking about!"

☆

Who is that guy who claims to be from Chaldea who protected Zhao Menghua, Chen Wenwen and others?

Kazuko was not interested in this, and she didn't know many people in Chaldea, but Lu Mingfei definitely wanted to ask.

However, Zhao Menghua may have been frightened by the Chimera that had surrounded him before, and he did not intend to stay here any longer. Instead, he urged, "I will introduce you to you when I get back to the train station."

Lu Mingfei thought about it and felt that there was no need to worry. Whether it was true or false, he would wait until he saw it.

Besides, given Lu Mingfei's character, even if the other person was really from Chaldea, he might not be able to recognize him.

Even among the people in Group A, there were several people with particularly weird and convoluted names. Lu Mingfei only remembered their faces, but was not sure of their names.

With Lu Mingfei and Adako taking the lead to clear the way, the rest of the people could safely carry their luggage and carry the wounded. Perhaps it was because Lu Mingfei had just dealt with all the unbeatable monsters nearby, and the journey to the camp was very long. smoothly.

After arriving, Lu Mingfei discovered that the place was unexpectedly big. Although Lu Mingfei had never been to the United States, the appearance basically restored the size of the Chicago train station in reality.

Considered Lu Mingfei's old classmates, the total number of members in this camp is half a hundred.

Lu Mingfei was originally a little worried about the condition of the seriously injured people, and wanted to ask if he needed to use the effect of his magic bottle to heal the injuries. But what made him feel that something was wrong was...

The person in charge of medical treatment faced the wounded, took out a few bottles, and sprayed something like a spray on the wounded's wounds. Then green numbers of +60 began to appear on the wounded's bodies, and the scary-looking wounds also appeared. The speed has been restored to the naked eye.

This made Lu Mingfei even more certain that this singularity must be the 'data world'.

In fact, after the previous battle, Lu Mingfei's sight popped up with many numbers that looked like increased golden coins, and he didn't know how to use them in this virtual world.

By the way, although Lu Mingfei now looks like the hero of an online novel who returns to the city and pretends to slap his face, Chen Wenwen did not pester Lu Mingfei because of this, and even deliberately avoided him and helped treat the injured everywhere.

Lu Mingfei didn't particularly care.

Although they are said to be old classmates, that's all.

If Su Xiaoqiang were here, she would definitely not let go of the opportunity to make things difficult for her, right?

On the other hand, other old classmates who were not close to Lu Mingfei before and whom Lu Mingfei couldn't even name were showing great courtesy to him. I heard that Lu Mingfei wanted to meet people from Chaldea, and he didn't care about the work at hand. Everyone will come to guide him.

In the end, Adako became impatient and drove everyone away with a look full of murderous intent. She only asked for directions and dragged Lu Mingfei away from the crowd.

Kazuko seems to hate being around a large group of humans.

In her eyes, everyone except Lu Mingfei might be similar to NPCs in the game with no plot, right?

Lu Mingfei actually wanted to enjoy the feeling of being flattered more, but he was too embarrassed to disobey Senior Kazu's wishes. The two followed the instructions and found their target.

——Point of divergence·Appearance——

[The person who appeared in the Chicago train station claiming to be a member of the Chaldean organization is]

【1/3/4, Kirshtalia】

【2/5/6, Emiya Shirou】

【7/9, Xia Mi(?)】

☆

That's a girl.

When it was confirmed that it was a woman, Lu Mingfei was inevitably a little disappointed. After all, there were only two women in the elite group A. Kazuko was by his side. If it wasn't Ophelia, then she was definitely not a member of group A.

When Lu Mingfei saw her, she was huddled behind the restaurant sales counter at the Chicago train station, tinkering with something with what looked like a wrench. While tinkering, she was humming a tune and shaking her body slightly.

She didn't seem to notice Lu Mingfei's arrival. Helpless, Lu Mingfei could only pretend to cough twice.

As a result, the girl was so frightened that she jumped three feet in the air. Without anyone seeing her clearly, she shouted: "I didn't want to steal anything! I just wanted to see if I could open the cabinet and take out the money inside!" Try it! It hasn’t worked yet! A crime that doesn’t work can’t be considered a crime!”

Because she was so panicked, the food that the girl was holding in her mouth - a piece of pork knuckle - fell to the ground, and the oil stains drew an ugly arc on her face.

Although it was a bit nonsense, Lu Mingfei's first reaction was: "Oh! Oh, the female demon!"

"It's not a female fairy! It's a beautiful girl!" The girl in front of her said with distress as she looked at the pig knuckle on the ground. The look of pity makes one wonder if she would want to follow the so-called "three-second rule" and pick up and eat it again.

What is this mess? But in terms of appearance alone, the girl in front of her is probably the most beautiful woman Lu Mingfei has ever seen. Since she is a beautiful girl, her messy actions don't matter.

Kazuko was slightly lost in thought.

Although she hates human beings, she did not reject the girl in front of her. She just couldn't help but start to think about whether she had met a female version of Kadok or a female version of Lu Mingfei.
