Lu Mingfei challenges FGO

124. Dragon’s name

Subtitle: The subtitle of the FGO London chapter is called 'Knights of Londinion', but I don't see how it is related to this title at all. Mordred is more like paddling by, so I added it around this subtitle. Some fate-style stories

Life, the future, everything.

Hatred is human nature. Faced with a disaster that takes away important things from important people around them, people will be afraid and will naturally hate.

Fujimaru Ritsuka took advantage of this hatred.

But they also realized their wish - revenge.

The secret treasure of Monte Cristo is blazing, and young people with strong blood, driven by the trend of hatred, gather under the banner of Black Flame, share hatred and flame, and let their lives become the food for opening up the future.

If possible, Fujimaru Ritsuka actually doesn't want to use this kind of strategy of mass sacrifice. If possible, she naturally wants to save everyone.

But the Avengers are different. Most of the Londinion knights who can truly withstand the violence shared by others have used revenge as the motivation to continue living.

Sometimes, death may be a relief.

Fujimaru Ritsuka was apologetic towards them.

Not because he ordered them to die as they devoted their last lives and loyalty to them.

On the contrary, the reason why Fujimaru Ritsuka felt sorry was because he could not let them die like this.

Therefore, Fujimaru Ritsuka's final order was not to let them die, but to continue to fight to save the world as their own - as 'Knights of Londinion' after death.

Death is not the end, but the beginning of another journey, especially now that the Alaya consciousness is weakened and Londinion is still a city built on the corpse (of a dragon).

Londinion was originally a city of the undead. Everything was built on the corpse of the unknown ancient dragon that fell here. Life was born in death, and hope was dazzling because of despair.

That's why Barbatos chose to create the King of the Wild Hunt, which encompasses a large number of necromantic powers. There are many versions, but the common point is that he "rules the army of the dead" as the target.

Fujimaru Ritsuka knew that the behavior of the demon gods was actually imitating the behavior of the French Holy King, and it was only after that that he was making the 'King of Singularity' or something like that.

Fighting together, using their hatred and life after death, Fujimaru Ritsuka's violent flames will eventually burn the devil who has caused all disasters.

[Barbatos’ attitude towards ‘Chaldea’: 1D100=72 (?)]

[Barbatos’ attitude towards ‘human beings’: 1D100=85 (??)]

[Barbatos’ attitude towards the ‘Knights of Londinion’: 1D100=86 (???)]

Won.

The violence that emerged from within completely destroyed Barbatos's ability to resist.

As a result, Fujimaru Ritsuka finally got a chance.

Of course, Fujimaru Ritsuka will destroy Barbatos. After all, this is the agreement he made with the Londinion Knights when they shared the Black Flame. But before that, Fujimaru Ritsuka does not want to let go of this test to test the demon gods and find out whether the demon gods have real What kind of creature's feelings are opportunities?

Why did they, who were supposed to maintain human ethics, lose control and go berserk?

Fujimaru Ritsuka was already prepared for interrogation, but what made her particularly displeased was that the dying Barbatos, whose body was made of flesh and blood and internal organs, actually burst into laughter that sounded like joy.

"Well done human. Beautiful"

"You won!"

The loser did not curse or be unwilling, and even sincerely offered blessings to the victorious Avengers.

At that moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka understood.

——That guy Solomon is also an irresponsible parent.

The children of magicians are their research and creation itself. The seventy-two demon gods themselves are the children of Solomon, but it is obvious that Solomon created these children, gave them tasks, and then gave them ambiguous general personalities. After assisting, I never thought about things like education.

The disappointed Fujimaru Ritsuka asked Barbatos without any expectations:

"Why are you doing this?"

The answer he got was not beyond Fujimaru Ritsuka’s expectation:

"I'm looking for reasons to convince myself to keep humanity alive."

So said Barbatos.

"Londinion is a filthy city of the undead. The city itself has long been in decay. Life is worthless here. All glory is built on filthy corpses. Hope has become a seedbed for despair. So I came. Here, a test is placed, looking forward to getting the answer

After getting an answer, he convinced himself to propose to the king and let mankind continue to survive. "

Boring.

So boring.

It's almost like a third-rate story script was forcibly reversed at the end to whitewash the previous villain.

But Fujimaru Ritsuka knew that Barbatos was not lying.

That's the kind of life they are. It can only be said that the problem of children's education is very serious, especially for children whose three views are not so much incorrect as serious defects to have such a degree of power, which is even more dangerous.

In pursuit of hope, he ended up creating despair.

"What's the difference between you and Londinion, a city you yourself despise?"

"I will die, but not Londinion."

After joy, Barbatos calmly accepted his death.

"Brave men, congratulations. Your revenge and the brilliance of your humanity have defeated the confused demon. I will die here, but as long as the temple remains, the next one will inherit my data and be named Barbatos. 's existence will also be resurrected by the king. If you need it, go and seek its help."

The devil will be resurrected.

To be more precise, as long as the 'production factory' of the Grand Temple of Time is still there, any demon god will be 'restarted' after the death of the Grand Temple of Time.

Is the Demon God after the reboot still the original Demon God?

If so, is the revenge of the Londinion Knights really meaningful? Is it really a success?

Fujimaru Ritsuka asked the demon who was burned by the violent flames.

Barbatos's answer was: "I don't know. However, it would be too sad if there was only emptiness in the ending of revenge. Besides, I didn't lie. Different people in the Demon God have different opinions, but at least I don't think' The next Barbatos' is 'now me'."

There is nothing more that can be asked.

"Death should not be the end of sorrow. If you still have memories, use the 'power of the undead' I made to see that the souls of the victims are still bound to the land of Londinion—— "

Under the complicated gazes of Fujimaru Ritsuka, Lady Bertha, and many Londinion knights, the demon god Barbatos, who appeared through the blood descendant Magiri Zolgen, was destroyed.

Darian said that Barbatos's personality is that of a demon god with a sense of justice and mission.

In the end, it turned into such a paranoid and twisted thing

Fujimaru Ritsuka couldn't help but pick up an empty pipe without tobacco.

Thousands of words turned into one sentence.

——"Children can't choose their parents."

One of the orphans struggling in this foggy city is Barbatos.

If possible, Fujimaru Ritsuka also wants to follow Barbatos's last words and let Madam Bertha use the power of the undead to bring back the souls who died because of Barbatos and the incineration of human nature.

A lot of this is the reason for the revenge of the Knights of Londinion, right?

But Fujimaru Ritsuka knew that he couldn't do this yet.

If you want to ask why.

Barbatos' death is not the end.

Fujimaru Ritsuka doesn't have much experience in repairing singularities, but in the few special points in Fuyuki, she can remember very clearly what will happen after the saviors finally defeat the level BOSS. .

It would be like playing an RPG game and being blocked by the final BOSS at the entrance to Novice Village——

He appeared peacefully.

Appearing in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka, Fujimaru Ritsuka looked calm and mentally prepared, as if he was looking at his reflection in a mirror.

Demon King Goetia

He who is so close comes in person.

Calm, yet exuding an aura that is as overwhelming as a mountain.

Shakespeare was probably the only person present who could laugh completely heartlessly.

Shakespeare has no interest in the salvation of the world's life and death. It can even be said that he likes tragic stories. The answer he really longs for here is [the truth].

What is the truth about the monster who calls himself the Demon King and Solomon?

"Solomon? No, no, no, no, Master, this guy is not Solomon at all! Its true identity is [Beast]. It did not appear because of the decline of civilization, but was caused by the 'too prosperous civilization' itself. The out-of-control monster that was born! Beast I! Its essence is the human nature itself that we want to save!"

——[Beast (Beast)]

The world where such creatures appear indicates that it is an 'too prosperous' world where civilization will develop in the future.

"It is because of too much prosperity that it leads to destruction. The overly prosperous future launches a great cleansing of the past. It is not satisfied with 'the current level of prosperity', but pursues 'truly and thoroughly greater and more perfect prosperity.'" ——This is the essence of incineration of human reason! The true purpose of the beast that calls itself the Demon God King is to 'create a more perfect future'! For this reason, it wants to burn our 'present' and 'past' as sacrifices!"

Shakespeare, who didn't care about the atmosphere at all, even fell down on the ground and started writing furiously.

"Arrogant! So arrogant! That's why the theme is 'Summoning of Heroic Spirits'! Because the 'Salvation Magic', which is the prototype of the Summoning of Heroic Spirits, originally summoned seven guardians of human nature to fight against it." The method of destruction caused by an over-prosperous civilization! However, this technology itself is also proof of 'over-prosperity', so the summoning of heroic spirits itself will also go out of control, and the being who exerts the power of heroic spirits to the limit is Beast I!"

It's a pity that no one cares about Shakespeare's 'reasoning' now.

In other words, others have more or less realized it already.

After all, the Londinian knights present are basically professionals in the field of mysticism.

Instead, Shakespeare was just an outsider with an unexpected wealth of arcane knowledge.

The Demon King himself has arrived.

Are you going to completely eliminate Fujimaru Ritsuka like this? Or is it forcibly controlling Fujimaru Ritsuka and pulling her into its camp?

Or is it that the Demon King, who planned to create a new world, decided to imprison Fujimaru Ritsuka and bring him to the new world as something similar to a specimen?

Fujimaru Ritsuka is confident in the second option.

She has obtained the secret treasure of Monte Cristo, and nothing can control her will. It is impossible for the Demon King to control her, or even use her power for his own use.

As for the third option? This is not true in the first place, because one of the powers of the Secret Treasure of Monte Cristo is that it will not be bound by time and space.

No cage can hold her.

in other words.

Since it was impossible to imprison or instigate rebellion, the Demon King had only one choice from the beginning.

With Fujimaru Ritsuka's wisdom, she would have reached this point long ago even without the help of Holmes.

This is the final battle that belongs to Fujimaru Ritsuka.

In the end, Fujimaru Ritsuka failed to wait until Lu Mingfei and the Chaldean army arrived.

Of course, Fujimaru Ritsuka also considered doing nothing, hiding and waiting to join the main force.

But doing nothing is really inconsistent with Fujimaru Ritsuka's character.

Besides, even if he does nothing, the Demon King may still discover the existence of Fujimaru Ritsuka. After all, Fujimaru Ritsuka now also houses the 'extremely evil' Demon God Cain, but he is suppressed by Fujimaru Ritsuka's sense of justice.

Fujimaru Ritsuka did not intend to surrender.

I don’t intend to do nothing and be a princess or a vase waiting to be rescued.

——Although saying this sounds like setting up a flag

But Fujimaru Ritsuka still wanted to say this line:

"It doesn't matter if I defeat you (the Demon King) right here!"

This is the final 'foreshadowing' prepared by Fujimaru Ritsuka, and it is also the final trump card she uses to face the 'Demon King'.

At this time, Fujimaru Ritsuka didn't know what the Holy King had done.

The Holy King cannot defeat the Demon King, but he can destroy the Demon King's foundation through self-sacrifice. In other words, it is a tricky way to defeat the Demon King, which is equivalent to forcing the Demon King's rampage program to return to its original state. status.

But Fujimaru Ritsuka had different ideas.

Her idea was to 'face it head-on'.

She is also confident and confident, and has asked many people for confirmation. The answer given by Holmes is "It is impossible to confirm whether it is possible to defeat the Demon King, but it is wrong to say that there is no possibility of victory at all."

No more Riddler.

Just make the answer public.

Fujimaru Ritsuka's trump card against the Demon King is Londinion itself.

After the story enters Londinium (London), it has been mentioned repeatedly and countless times, and it is a natural reminder.

——Lontinion is a city built on corpses

——Lontinion is a city riding on the back of a dragon

——Lontinion is even larger than the Earth itself

Because, the nameless dragon of stars sleeps here.

That was the corpse of a true ancient dragon (the strongest species) with a world pregnant within his body and the embryo of the universe in his belly.

corpse.

corpse.

corpse.

Because it is very important, I emphasize it three times.

Yes, this is the answer given by Fujimaru Ritsuka.

The Demon King who came to kill him in person couldn't help but admire the 'brain twist'.

Here is the strongest body.

Moreover, in Fujimaru Ritsuka's camp, there is Lady Bertha.

Because Mikazuki, Mash, and even Fujimaru Ritsuka himself were all children born without blessings, Mash and Fujimaru Ritsuka received blessings after that, but Mikazuki did not have those.

She wasn't even born.

As Shakespeare said before, it is a carrion-like existence that fell off the corpse of the Dragon of Albion under the Sleeping and Londinion underground. In other words, even the matter of being born now is like resentment. materialize.

The orphans in the foggy city, the dead babies in Chaldea, and the 'resentment' of the Dragon of Albion whose bodies were constantly being exhumed and destroyed after death.

For Lady Bertha, the crescent moon is an object of mercy and protection.

So, show the authority of the God of the Dead.

The King of the Wild Hunt also means the dragon in the storm.

So--

Wake up.

With the authority of the God of the Dead, awaken the corpse of the Dragon of Albion!

Now that the undead knights have come out, it's only natural to have a bone dragon or something, right?

Not enough energy?

Then add the Holy Grail in the land of Londinion! If that’s not enough, add the Holy Grail inside Fujimaru Ritsuka! If this is not enough, then use will and miracles to make up for the rest!

What is a miracle?

Miracles are like fairy tales.

And here it is! Story writers happen to exist! And the embodiment of fairy tale!

The Dragon of Albion is the nameless dragon.

Because being nameless is equivalent to non-existence in mystical terms, no one knows what it is.

But on the other hand, just because it is nameless, you can give it the name of a similar existence in other stories, and then establish its existence!

The record for the Dragons of Albion is almost non-existent.

All that is left is its ending - "falling between the gap between the material world and the inner sea of ​​stars."

Similar to it -

The answer is already obvious, right?

In the story of Nordic mythology, there is also such an ancient black dragon. His origin is unknown, and he does not even have any influence on the story of Nordic mythology itself. It is said that when he bites the roots of the world tree, it is the time when Ragnarok arrives. However, the World Tree has many roots, and the World Tree itself did not die due to Nidhogg's bite or poison. It was burned by the Fire Giant at the back.

The essence of Ragnarok is a battle between gods and giants, and it has nothing to do with the fact that the vegetarian black dragon is even bigger.

Pure outsiders, completely ignorant of the meaning of existence, are considered by researchers to be a 'symbol' in the story, but what about the historical truth?

Maybe, maybe, probably, it should be. Well, it really has nothing to do with Norse mythology. I just happened to pass by during Ragnarok, and I took a chance to collect some materials from the World Tree, and then?

Then. And then he disappeared. There was almost no record of it, and he didn’t even know his name. He just habitually called it the Dragon of Albion after the name of ancient Britain, Albion. Like a dragon.

In Nordic mythology, it plays this role. It is basically an ancient dragon passing by. After collecting materials, it "falls into an unknown abyss and disappears."

Then there really was nothing more. The stories in the original version of Norse Mythology are far less numerous than those in the various secondary, tertiary, and fourth creations. I think it’s because there are no scenes at all in the original version, so it left many story creators in later generations. Lots of creative space, right?

In the version adapted by Christian priests, it was unconditionally declared dead. When God ran over to make Odin and other Nordic gods surrender, he resurrected him with a wave of his hand.

In the world of magic, it doesn't really matter what the facts are, as long as they are similar.

Lies lie, and the truth can be reversed.

So, wake up!

The black dragon that swallows despair——

"The black dragon that fell in the land of stars, your name is Nidhogg (Dragon of Albion)!"

——Can it be turned into hope?

——to be continued!

Speaking of which, when I wrote about the similarity between the Dragon of Albion and Nidhogg, some people asked where the resemblance came from, so I finally wrote this out.

I added about 500 words later, please refresh this chapter.
