Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

96. Attack of Circe

Why is Kong Ming said to be reliable?

Because before he started, he had already sorted out what Lu Mingfei was going to do - that is, the 'strategy' for Lu Mingfei.

Although Lu Mingfei thinks this is quite ridiculous, and even makes people feel that the prime minister is cheating again and using the east wind to predict the future, but Kong Mingfei insists on saying that "magicians are very simple guys." "As long as we understand their purpose, we can deduce exactly what they will do."

Lu Mingfei could only believe him.

After looking at it for some reason, after eating the omelette rice that Lu Mingfei made according to the recipe he searched for, his face lit up as if there were some unknown special effects flashing around him - in short, it was a 'devouring' in the literal sense. Itsuka Kotori.

Lu Mingfei decided to seize the time and go through the strategy Kong Ming gave him in his mind.

What kind of story does "Date A Live" tell?

Strictly speaking, the world view and background is quite large. Not only does it have multiple world settings, but the content of the story of the protagonist and the elves on the earth itself involves multiple countries and continents——

However, Director Kong pointed out that this part of the original information can basically be ignored.

If you want to ask why.

The so-called overwriting is essentially just to visit the props originally placed on the table in a new position, and the total amount will not increase.

In other words, the world of "Date A Live" created by Kirshtalia must only be the main stage of 'Tiangong City'.

He couldn't make it bigger. After all, it was essentially a London reskin, so the size was just that big.

In this case, then the various forces in the original work and the various intrigues behind them can be completely ignored, and then simplified to the simplest level.

Kong Ming organized three organizational camps for Lu Mingfei to appear in Tiangong City.

【DEM Company】

The villain in the original work, objectively the most powerful force, is positioned as the protagonist's hostile force, and his attitude towards the elves is to 'capture'.

【AST Troop】

The setting is an army with a national background, but because it is a light novel, all aspects have been simplified. It can be simply understood as a neutral force. The attitude towards the elves is 'annihilation', but to be more precise, it is from excessive power. Powerful and uncontrollable elves protect ordinary people.

As far as the story of "Date Live" itself is concerned, the AST force is actually a neutral organization, but it is restrained by the DEM company and basically serves as a mercenary under the DEM company.

【Ratatosk Organization】

The camp where the protagonist of the original work belongs is named after a squirrel that lives on top of the World Tree in Nordic mythology. He will run back and forth on the World Tree, using words to destroy the relationship between the eagle at the top of the tree and the black dragon at the bottom of the tree, in order to make peace with the elves. A mysterious organization formed through dialogue and seeking peaceful solutions to disasters.

All relevant insider information about the original work can be ignored. Lu Mingfei only needs to regard these people as his companions.

Afterwards, Kong Ming manually omitted for Lu Mingfei a large section of occult terminology that he did not understand, and directly told Lu Mingfei the result:

Objectively speaking, the DEM Company, the most powerful company, as the enemy villain in the original work, will definitely be Lu Mingfei's enemy, and the Argonauts will definitely choose to play it themselves.

Because as long as you occupy the position of DEM Company, it is actually equivalent to occupying two of the three forces at the same time.

By analogy, Lu Mingfei and Chaldea's friends will naturally be assigned to the protagonist group of the original work - that is, the Ratatosk organization.

Well, because this name is too difficult to input, Ratatosk will just call it Chaldea for now. They are all from Chaldea anyway.

Based on this analysis, it seems that Chaldea's position in the Three Kingdoms' struggle for hegemony in Tiangong City will be overwhelmingly disadvantageous. After all, Kirshtalia is the second largest among the three major forces.

Is it really impossible to play?

Not really.

A stage play is a stage play after all. No matter how restored the installation is, it cannot be the original story.

The Argonauts plays DEM

Chaldea plays Ratatosk Organization

So, what about the people who play the AST troops?

It is known that the people who play the role of ordinary NPCs are naturally the same ordinary people who survived the London singularity in the last batch of ordinary NPCs.

As a neutral blocking AST force player, he is naturally a 'neutral character' within the London Singularity who originally had special powers but did not join any party.

Specifically, they are those wild heroic spirits, such as the former Hogwarts principal playing 'Babbage' - this Babbage alone is enough, and his inherent barrier 'Steam World' can distort fairy tales. The power of the world.

According to the occult logic, Moriarty, Demon Butler Sebastian, Sakata Kintoki, Tamamo Mae, Tesla, Helena, Machiri, etc., do not belong to Chaldea. Instead, members who had previously formed a temporary alliance with Chaldea would be assigned to AST, the 'neutral' organization in the original work.

Even the Argonauts dare not underestimate him.

Once something goes wrong, there is a high probability that all the forces except the Argonauts will join together to besiege them.

Because Chaldea also has a special trump card here - a trump card other than Lu Mingfei.

In other words, Lu Mingfei doesn’t have to worry about the Argonauts coming up to take advantage of him, and bringing the two forces of DEM and AST to arrest people directly. He also doesn’t have to worry about being in his own camp when the stage play starts. He is the only one who has not been attacked. The memory overwrite affects the situation and you can only fight alone.

He is not fighting alone.

Among Chaldea's companions, at the moment when the stage play arranged by Kirshtaria was performed, someone in the protagonist's force organization - "awakened" at the same time.

☆

——Circe ‘awakened’.

With three strokes, five and two, she dismantled the memory interference magic that Kirshtalia had imposed on herself. The contents of her previous actions in the Hogwarts script came to her mind. Circe only wanted to say this. :

"Damn it! I missed so many opportunities!"

When she thought that her interaction with Lu was entirely about the teacher-student relationship, Circe was troubled by the fact that she had missed so much of the main storyline.

Um?

Why was Circe unaffected, you ask?

no.

Don’t underestimate Circe, the great witch who is the incarnation of the three-phase goddess!

The power of the 'fairy tale' is one of the best among supernormal powers, so Circe was attacked without any resistance. There was no way around it.

but now?

After Kirshtalia covered the previous 'fairy tale script' with his own 'story script', the original fairy tale world's bewitching effect on people's will was overwritten. Although the memory overlay still exists, it is not a fairy tale this time. The random and unsolvable spiritual covering of power is the 'magic' weaved by Kirshtalia that has a similar effect.

Kirshtalia is indeed very strong.

But no matter how strong Kirshtalia is - what is truly powerful is not the 'spells Kirshtalia uses', but 'Kirshtalia who uses these spells'.

What is powerful is not the spell, but the user himself.

On the other hand, no matter how powerful I am, the techniques I use still have limitations.

Kirshtalia is a genius who uses ancient Greek celestial magic.

But——Circe said that no matter what she did, she could be regarded as the ‘goddess of magic’ in the ancient Greek mythology era!

"It's so embarrassing! It's a shame that I asked you to leave the magic to me, but it turned out that I was wrong! It was the nursery rhyme that committed the offense! Magic also requires basic laws and basic logic, and the power of fairy tales is not mentioned at all. It’s logical!”

After the frustrated Circe solved the curse, although her direction was different from Kong Ming's, as a magic expert in the ancient Greek system, she used her own knowledge and her own way to quickly understand the current situation.

"Does the content of the composition borrow power from the celestial body? To be able to do this to this extent, this person named Kirshtalia is incredible."

but.

"But! The basic framework and logical structure of the entire barrier are all techniques that I am familiar with and cannot be more familiar with! Hum, even all the little habits and problems are retained. You can tell at a glance that it is my yandere (← The latest trendy words I learned from Lu Mingfei) are the handiwork of my disciple Medea! Look, I will start to crack it now and restore the memories of all the Chaldean members!"

That's probably it.

Circe really wanted to rush to her disciple Medea, grab her collar and say to her: "Don't look down on me, niece!"

The mechanical cat dragon familiar that Lu Mingfei gave to Circe also flapped its wings and flew over her head to detect the existence of nearby life for her.

Circe didn't know anything about "Date A Live" and she didn't know that the place she was in was the secret base of the Ratatosk organization in the script.

All she knew was that she was going to go on a killing spree! (←At the technical level)

This is not a problem for the great witch.

In short, first compile a ‘special search technique for Chaldean members covered by memories’.

[Difficulty: 95]

[Circe’s ‘Magic Weaving’: 1D100+80 (Greek series is also my home court!) =80+80=160]

【160＞95】

【success! 】

To compare it to a programmer, it's probably like boarding a Gundam robot and writing code on the spot to compile a suitable system.

Circe continued to write the program three times, five by five, and divide by two, and then input the program into the body of the mechanical cat dragon familiar that Lu Mingfei gave him. The mechanical cat dragon immediately started working, guiding Circe to the nearest target. The location of the Chaldean members covered by the memory.

good!

Medea, right?

Kirshtalia, right?

Don't underestimate my great witch Circe's teeth!

☆

Well, Circe has probably already taken action somewhere that Lu Mingfei doesn't know about, right?

Lu Mingfei thought to himself.

Kong Ming said so, and he naturally chose to believe it.

Unlike the previous situation where memories could only be restored by relying on classic elements of fairy tales such as 'magic potions', in the Greek system module, there are magic goddesses like Circe, who can remove the effects of ordinary members whose memories have been overwritten. The debuff is just a matter of time.

Before Circe restored the memories of the other Chaldean members whose memories had been overwritten, so that the original organization name that was too difficult to pronounce and copied and pasted was officially changed to 'Chaldea', Lu Mingfei How to act?

The content of the strategy given by Kong Ming is

Well, don't act rashly for now, continue to play the role of 'Shidou Itsuka', the protagonist of this stage play (Greek drama?) version of "Date A Live", do whatever you have to do, just go to school and wait for Chaldea. Get in touch before taking the next step.

There is no need to rush into making enemies of the Argonauts.

In fact, in terms of purpose, the Argonauts are not necessarily enemies of Chaldea. They just want to take away the Holy Grail. The reason why they overturned the table and covered the world again is because the original rules of the fairy tale world have already changed for them. Disadvantageous to the extreme.

Lu Mingfei took out his mobile phone and used the search engine to search for keywords such as 'DEM' and 'Tiangong City'. He quickly found where the DEM company's base in Tiangong City was.

It looks like a huge skyscraper.

After finishing breakfast and saying hello to Wuhe Qinli, who was unknown inside, Lu Mingfei went out to school with his schoolbag on his back.

"Ming Fei Oni-chan~Bye~"

Speaking of which, Lu Mingfei’s name is still Lu Mingfei, not the original character name ‘Wukawa Shidao’.

Is this also caused by Lu Mingfei's resistance to the target of the effect?

The location of the school was naturally found.

As for the building of DEM Company, it is also very conspicuous. After all, there is only one very huge and exaggerated building in the whole city, and it is simply not the same style of building as the surrounding buildings.

While walking on the way to school, nothing special happened. The closer we got to the school, the more and more high school students of both sexes wearing the same uniforms around us. Lu Mingfei actually became a little distracted for a moment and began to think about something. Some unexplained things happened.

for example.

Why Date A Live?

Are there no other more suitable works? For example, the most classic "Academy City" in "A Certain Magical Index" and "A Certain Scientific Railgun".

If a stage like that is created, it will be more difficult for Lu Mingfei to find his scattered companions. At the same time, can the Argonauts play the position of 'Chairman of Academy City' and have more and more powerful resources? ?

Why did you choose the script "Date A Live"?

Is it just because the elves in "Date Live" each have a corresponding celestial body, which is easier for Kirshtalia, the strongest celestial magician, to form?

"Speaking of it, theoretically speaking, the current time should be the beginning of the first volume of the novel version of "Date A Live", right? What happened at the beginning of the first volume? Is Boss Wodem mainly focusing on the novel version? Is the stage play constructed based on reference, or is it based on the adapted animated version as the main reference?”

Lu Mingfei thought to himself.

Today seems to be the first day of the new school year for Tiangong City High School.

Well, this is the beginning of the story.

After spending some time and asking the NPC students, he found his classroom, Class 2, Class 4, and found a seat by the window to sit down. Lu Mingfei planned to spend the class time in a daze, and then wait for Chaldea. After I regained my organization, I took the initiative to contact myself.

Just at this time--

"Wuhe. Lu Mingfei."

What kind of strange name is this?

Lu Mingfei heard such a female voice without any cadence.

Turning around, he saw a slender white-haired classmate.

One of the heroine's 'elves' is 'Tobiichi Origami'.

Who is playing the role inside her?
