Tomorrow's Ark Full of Heroic Spirits

But what makes Wei Gong very puzzled is why he can't summon Ivan the Terrible at all despite using the books related to Ursus?

"Or, what conditions need to be fulfilled?" Wei Gong was puzzled.

Chapter 221: Holmes: Who likes to work overtime?

a month's time.For Emiya, this period of time passed extremely slowly. He was observing every move of Ursus every day, especially after he had made up his mind to get rid of the scourge of Kosich. The days have not stopped, and they have been paying close attention to all this.

For the outside world, the "Emperor of Gaul" who appeared suddenly during this period of time is the Terra continent that has almost frozen the world pattern, directly adding a bit of war. The most intuitive manifestation is that the land of the Victorian Empire It is decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As Matthew said before, Napoleon and his Gaul army chose to surrender in all the places they passed by. Napoleon and his party headed westward with almost no resistance along the way. .

And during this period of time, what inspired the hearts of Gaul was that Napoleon and his army had broken through a mobile city.The city defense army of this mobile city became confused the moment they heard the arrival of Napoleon's army, and the officers of the city defense army also surrendered upon hearing the news.

For a time, the reputation of Napoleon and his Gaul army reached a new peak. Napoleon and his army occupied the mobile city and reformed new policies and laws. Compared with now, it is still in chaos Napoleon's "Gaul" has already taken the first step and consolidated its ruling regime one step further.

And at this moment, Napoleon and his army finally stopped, and more Gauls left their hometowns because of Napoleon's name, and began to move closer to the direction of "New Gaul"...

"Have you started to stop and concentrate on consolidating? It's a good idea. I believe that His Majesty the Emperor will use this time to develop with peace of mind. Before Victoria's army overwhelms the border, he will have more coping strategies."

"...I thought being British you'd react more."

At the command center of Chaldea at this moment, Wei Gong looked at the British gentleman wearing a leather coat and holding a pipe beside him, and couldn't help asking: "Is this also the fairness of being an adjudicator?"

"No, the adjudicator is just a kind of 'objective justice' in the final analysis. As the adjudicator, I just have the highest interest in pursuing the truth, not the concept of good and evil, Mr. Emiya."

And the person standing beside Wei Gong at this moment is none other than Sherlock Holmes, one of the heroic spirits that Wei Gong summoned this time.The best and only consulting detective in the world.At least that's what he said himself.

In the past month, Truth has lived up to Emiya's expectations. With the help of Matthew, the first book of the "Sherlock Holmes" series has been created—but unfortunately it has not yet been released.

According to Andersen, there is only a general framework, and it is still no problem to read, but the writing is still unreadable.Probably because she is not familiar with the writing techniques of suspense novels, it is rare for Miss Truth to overturn this time.

But fortunately, there are Andersen and Shakespeare beside her who can help her constantly revise and polish, and these manuscripts are enough for Emiya - Charlotte Holmes standing here now is the best prove.

Of course, the summoning this time also brought a surprise to Emiya.

"I don't have any special feelings about Victoria in this era. Although it feels like the London I used to live in, I don't think this is my hometown."

"I'm sorry, it's probably because people like me are always overly rational. My curiosity about the world now overrides what Britain is in this era—not to mention, in other words, France, which was destroyed in this era, is also It’s a disaster without reason, should I also feel sorry for the French of this era.”

Holmes smiled exceptionally brightly, and joked to Emiya that his rationality completely surpassed Emiya's imagination, so much so that he seemed to be involved in a huge "case" regarding the world. Same.

For Sherlock Holmes now, exploring the mysteries of this world is like handling an unprecedented huge case. He has no time to think about Victoria's affairs, and he cares more about the secrets of this world.

"What's more, Mr. Emiya, after you summoned Moriarty and released him, you asked me this question again, do you hope to see my reaction?"

"I've been seen through." Emiya wasn't embarrassed at all when Sherlock Holmes pointed out his "bad taste" - he was really looking forward to seeing the flustered expression of this great detective because of some of his actions. .

That's right, James Moriarty.This existence who appeared as the final villain in the "Sherlock Holmes" series was expected by Emiya. After Sherlock Holmes was summoned, the one who followed was also appeared.

The scene of the summoning at that time can be said to be quite embarrassing. Emiya witnessed the pair of former enemies staring and silent at each other, and then suddenly fought without warning. The final result of the duel was Moriarty's. The back is sore and it is over.

"However, this is a very wise choice, Mr. Emiya. Let Moriarty go to Victoria to secretly assist His Majesty Napoleon's work, and also to break into an organization."

"That organization... is called 'Deep Pool', right? According to Miss Matthew, it is an organization secretly planning to seize the Victorian regime."

"Yes, I let Moriarty break into the interior, but to say that they seized power is to look at them highly. At least as far as I know, their achievements in so many years are not even as good as Napoleon's achievements in a month. .”

Wei Gong also waved his hand when he heard the words, without concealing his thoughts at all, and said to Holmes: "I just intend to let Moriarty control that organization as soon as possible, and then use the power of this organization to fight against Ursus. "

"It's not easy for us to intervene in the plan of Ursas' demon factory. We must use other means to fully understand it. I think that if Moriarty is given a little time, he will give me a satisfactory answer."

"—Correct answer, although he doesn't want to admit it, but in terms of manipulating the underground world, he may still be superior."

Even Holmes had to admit that Moriarty should indeed be allowed to do this matter. The existence of the so-called "Napoleon of the criminal world" is not in vain. Let him investigate and infiltrate an organization. And it was extremely easy for Moriarty to gain control of this organization.

"In that case, then I'll go talk to Miss Truth."

"Huh? And the truth?" Emiya was a little surprised by Holmes' reaction. What's the matter with this great detective looking for the truth?

"...Why is there such a surprised expression? Mr. Emiya."

But Holmes raised his eyebrows and said to Wei Gong: "As the creator of 'I' in this era, shouldn't I guide her writing progress when I have no other work for the time being?"

"Although it is a bit boastful to say this, not every writer can have close communication with the character prototype anytime and anywhere. I think I can provide a lot of help to Miss Truth."

"I don't want "Sherlock Holmes" of this era to be a third-rate novel that is unknown, Mr. Emiya, so I will take my leave first."

After all, Holmes waved his hands and chose to leave temporarily, and Emiya also watched Holmes walk towards the studio where the truth was.

How do you feel... It was difficult to realize the idea of ​​having Sherlock Holmes take over from the very beginning?

This feeling doesn't seem to be any different from summoning a master. Although Holmes doesn't say it on the surface, his behavior... Emiya can see that he is quite resistant to work, especially now. He was particularly short of people, and when everything was running normally, he showed a strong attitude of "fishing".

It seems that Emiya's idea of ​​letting go of the work at hand may be temporarily shelved.

Chapter 222: Moriarty Diving into the "Deep Pool"

Victoria's Hill County, as Emiya and Holmes said, Moriarty was sent here to investigate an organization called "Deep Pool", and while this organization was active in the Hill County area, it kept secretly Intercept supplies for Victoria's army to survive and strengthen your own armed forces.

And this kind of daily interception seems to have come to an end for this organization. The reason is that Xiaoqiu County is no longer owned by Victoria.

"Damn Napoleon!"

In the base area of ​​"Deep Pool", a film girl named Mandela, contrary to her rather delicate and lovely face, smashed a piece of porcelain on the ground in an extremely irritable temper, venting her powerlessness and rage. Emotions.

"Damn Napoleon! Damn 'New Gaul'! Why did they just take the Hills! Victorian army supplies don't go through here anymore!"

"Damn it! Damn it!"

"—Mandela, calm down, your anger will not change anything."

On the other side, the "leader" of "Deep Pool", a woman named Lafsine and code-named "Reed Grass", said to Mandela indifferently: "None of us thought of the restoration of Gaul, In just one month, a quarter of Victoria's territory has become Gaul's territory."

"Why don't you listen to the 'professor', he sees the situation better than us."

"Hahaha, as expected of a 'leader', his vision is really extraordinary."

And as Wei Cao's voice fell, at this moment, a very formally dressed, kind-looking old man about 50 years old came out on his own initiative, and this person was none other than Wei Gong sent to investigate "deep" Pool" by James Moriarty.

That's right, Moriarty's progress was faster than what Emiya and Holmes had imagined, perhaps this was his advantage in the professional field.Moriarty inquired about the "Deep Pool" at an astonishing speed, and confirmed that this organization was active in Xiaoqiu County, and managed to contact their "leader" Weicao, and joined the Deep Pool organization .

Soon, Moriarty relied on his ingenuity to reach the level of a "cadre" at an extremely fast speed, and his greatest contribution since he joined Shenchi was to predict "Xiaoqiu County" It is about to be occupied, and Shenchi will no longer be able to live in Xiaoqiu County from now on.”

When Moriarty said these words at that time, laughter rang throughout the base, and before the next day, the second lieutenant who personally accepted his fate in Napoleon, the flag bearer code-named "Qinliu", was Jenny and the Gaul army led by Bagpipe quickly captured Xiaoqiu County.

From then on, Moriarty received the highest attention, and no one dared to underestimate the mind of this old man.

"Professor, do you have any good suggestions for the current situation?"

"Suggestion? My initial suggestion was that everyone quickly evacuate Xiaoqiu County and find another way out, but now this opportunity has been lost."

When Moriarty heard the words, he also said something in a slightly mocking tone. However, his words made everyone around him feel embarrassed, angry but unable to get angry.

Especially Mandela, even this irritable girl was blocked by Moriarty's words and didn't know what to say - she was one of the people who laughed at Moriarty the loudest at that time.

"...Professor, you have proven your mind, but now is not the time to blame, we should unite as one."

Weicao was also slightly silent, and then asked Moriarty, "Is there any way we can leave Xiaoqiu County now?"

"I'm afraid that's impossible. Gaul's army has already stationed here. As far as I know, the terrain of this area is very critical. Gaul must be heavily guarded." Moriarty said with a mysterious smile. Said: "And there have been people who have been secretly investigating our organization. Fleeing now is equivalent to publicly reporting our whereabouts on the street."

"...So there's nothing you can do?"

Weicao was also silent for a while, but at this moment, Mandela also said angrily after hearing the words: "Didn't you also think of a good idea? What's the point?"

"Heh, I haven't finished yet, Miss Cat, it seems that the swelling on your face that was slapped by me last time has not gone away, and you started asking me to slap the other side."

But at this moment, Moriarty had a smile on his face but suddenly became malicious, and his pupils began to reflect the maliciousness that could not be concealed, and said word by word:

"I didn't say that we must flee. I knew that Xiaoqiu County would be occupied, and you would never follow my advice. Therefore, I prepared the 'second move' in advance."

"The second move?" Wei Cao was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and repeated subconsciously.

"That's right, that's the possibility of 'If we don't have a chance to retreat, how can we survive in Xiaoqiu County'." Moriarty looked at Weicao with cold eyes. At this moment, Weicao was killed by Mori Yati stared at it a little uncomfortable, and felt a chill down her back.

She felt as if some of her secrets had been seen through, and Wei Cao felt guilty for no reason.

Could it be... that he was exposed?The fact that I am not a real leader...

"And the answer is -- we're going to cleanse our organization."

"Washing white?"

And at the moment when Moriarty said these words, the audience in Shenchi fell into a moment of silence, not only Weicao, but even the woman who was secretly observing all this was captured by Moriah. Surprised by Tee's words.

Surprise was momentary, but the secretive woman immediately realized Moriarty's intentions, and in her heart, she had already begun to be surprised by Moriarty's thoughts.

This man... actually thought of it so far?

"That's right, whitewashing." Moriarty also squinted his eyes and said confidently: "As long as our identities are legalized, we don't need to live in fear. With legal identities, we are serious. Armed Forces."

"No matter what kind of underground organization it is, it is impossible to get on the table. Compared with the real empire, the underground world is just a tasteless tasteless rib. They allow us to exist, not us to make them helpless."

"But now is a good opportunity to clean up, leader. Now Xiaoqiu County does not belong to the Victorian Empire, but to Gaul. As long as we seek refuge in Gaul, we can stand on the bright side with a legal posture. Napoleon the Gallic emperor... as far as I know, he was not a man who cared about the infected and the non-infected."

"Take refuge in Gaul..."

But at this moment, the words that Moriarty said made Wei Cao never think of it.As beings who wanted to seek Victoria's throne, she and the other person never thought about the idea of ​​taking refuge in Gaul.

"But... what about after taking refuge in Gaul? How do we seek Victoria's throne?"

"That's even easier, Miss Leader." Moriarty smiled very easily when he heard the words, and said to Wei Cao: "You are also a Draco with the right to inherit the throne, aren't you? And your beauty Not bad, with your status, it is not easy for His Majesty Napoleon to accept you as a princess?"

"And if you work a little harder and have a son and a half daughter, will it be difficult for your child to be the heir of a dependent state when Gaul rules the Victorian Empire?"

Weicao: "..."

However, what Moriarty said stunned Weicao and the people behind the scenes. On the other side, Mandela reacted with a flushed face and turned to Moriarty angrily. shouted:

"You, what are you talking about!"

"Leader—how could a leader do such a thing?! To do this kneeling—"

"Oh, before I get angry, I have to say, Miss Mandela, the opportunity to become a Gaul upstart is at hand, don't you feel tempted?"

But Moriarty looked at Mandela with a mysterious smile, and said word by word: "You are the general of Shenchi, with your ability, it will be no problem to become a general in Gaul. At that time, when Gaul breaks through Victoria, you will be a serious hero and an upstart in Gaul."

"Under one person, above ten thousand people, Miss Mandela, for you who are demanding of the powerful, this is a good opportunity, isn't it?"

"! You are talking nonsense!"

However, Mandela, who was hit by Moriarty's words, was still extremely annoyed and shouted that the girl who had always hated the nobles the most, now heard that she could become an "upstart". , obviously fell into shock.

And when Mandela thought that if she could really become the nobles she "hated", she couldn't help but feel a smile spread across her face.

But at this moment, the woman who had been silently listening to all this behind her back finally woke up from the shock, and her eyes burst out with unprecedented greed.

She had a vague feeling that Moriarty was her best trump card to the imperial power!

Chapter 223: Napoleon: Moriarty, you plot against me!

The meeting in Shenchi ended very quickly. After Moriarty revealed his plan, it seemed to be the only way out for "Shenchi" today, making it almost impossible for other members to think about other possibilities. .

But no one dared to take the initiative to go along with Moriarty's plan. After all, this plan was arranged by the leader of their Shenchi. Meaning of their real leader.

And at night, Weicao also took the initiative to come to a hidden area, and the end of her tail that seemed to be burning all the time illuminated this dark area.

And at the edge, Weicao saw a copy that was almost her, but a more mature and bigger woman standing here.

"...Sister, please don't tell me, you really think Moriarty's plan is correct." Looking at the last relative in front of her, Wei Cao seemed to have noticed her different eyes from usual, and couldn't help but asked slightly enlarged.

"My dear sister, this is perhaps the easiest and most achievable way to achieve our goal." Weicao's sister leaned against the wall and said with a mysterious smile on her face:

"The professor is a genius... No, he is a real genius who is far superior to us in structure and strategy—although he must have his own purpose in joining us now, but what I have to say is that what he said The possibility fascinates me."

"The fastest way to reach the highest position... can be the easiest way to get us back to the imperial power of the Victorian Empire—sister, the method he said is not wrong at all."

"But, sister..." Wei Cao gritted her teeth slightly, and said to her sister, "Napoleon...um...he is a heroic spirit. Heroic spirits, don't they all say that they are immortal?"

"Eternal age and death, he also has desires." But Wei Cao's elder sister shook her head, and shook her hair in a gesture, and said to Wei Cao:

"I'm also of orthodox blood anyway, so I'm not bad in appearance, right? I'm not better than that Aslan's crown prince? Sister, can I have some confidence in your sister?"

"That's not the case..."

And all of a sudden, even Wei Cao didn't know where to start complaining, looking at her own sister who seemed to have fallen into a bewilderment since Moriarty revealed his plan of "cleaning the top" All of a sudden, Weicao suddenly felt that the Shenchi organization had fallen into a deeper abyss in a certain sense.

But she can't dissuade her sister now, but she still has kind thoughts in her heart. Weicao, who has a heart like a mirror, has already vaguely felt the very strange feeling from Moriarty...

This old man... is not simple.What is his purpose in joining Shenchi?

But now Weicao can't stop anything, she vaguely felt that the current deep pool seems to be derailed, and is heading towards a road that doesn't know where to go.

And behind this, there is a spider that has been weaved, waiting for them to relax their vigilance and fall into the spider web without flapping their wings, and will enjoy their bodies to their heart's content...

"Oh..." Weicao also sighed a long time. Although she is a younger sister, she can also be regarded as the leader of Shenchi on the surface, but in fact, the whole Shenchi people regard Weicao as a microphone, just a substitute for the dead. Wei Cao himself is also willing to do such a thing.

She knows very well that if this illusory imperial power can be regained, then her sister is the most likely person. She, she is not an emperor or king.
