Tomorrow's Ark Full of Heroic Spirits

"So, I'm not here for a while, did any major things happen in Chaldea?"

"There are some, senior. Let me tell you some good news first. The "Sherlock Holmes Series" work you gave to Miss Truth has been officially released, and the response is very good!"

During this period of time, I have been dealing with daily obligations, and now I finally have time to deal with the real important events in Chaldea. Emiya also immediately called his dear schoolgirl, Mash, and he did not blame Mash for his mistreatment of him. Encountered indifferent behavior.

After all, strictly speaking, he did it himself, no wonder other people.

However, the first news surprised Emiya. He had only disappeared for a week, and the "Sherlock Holmes" series, which had just taken shape, was actually completed?And the finished product looks good?

"Have you paid attention to the audience's response?"

"Well, it was as popular as expected, even the sales volume of "Legend of King Arthur" surpassed it within three days." And Matthew is also a fan of Sherlock Holmes, so he is very happy to see this series in another world. It can also be a big seller-especially if the detective novel of this era is actually not lonely.

The sales volume of novels in Terra Continent has always been good. Whether it is Casimir’s knight-themed novels, or a cultural capital like Victoria, or a new science fiction novel about Columbia, or Yan Kingdom, even if it is blocked, it will still be sold. Extremely popular fantasy novels are extremely popular themes in Terra Continent.

As for detective novels, Victoria, a city known as the cultural capital, is the most prosperous, and all of these are vulnerable to the truth in the face of "Sherlock Holmes", which has been assisted and polished by Andersen, Shakespeare and other writers. ,completely annihilated.

This is completely different from the previous effects of "The Legend of King Arthur" due to the star effect of Mordred. The "Sherlock Holmes" series did not warm up at all before, and Chaldea only did a little publicity. It was sold, and within three days, the reaction was so intense that no one in Chaldea could have imagined it.

First came Longmen, then Casimir, and finally Victoria. Victoria's response far exceeded Matthew's imagination. Even overnight, Victoria's "Sherlock Holmes" series became works that everyone looted, and even became almost Everyone has a copy of the popular goods. Matthew even heard that a bookstore just bought a batch of "Sherlock Holmes" series in the morning, and they were all sold out before the morning. Longmen's reminder list was simply in short supply.

"Someone has even started to write to Miss Truth, requesting to write a sequel as soon as possible." Matthew said with a smile: "Miss Truth used her pen name for the first time, also called 'Truth', and now Miss Truth probably has He has become the most sensational writer in the world."

"Those letters weren't sent to Chaldea, right?" Emiya couldn't help asking, although he didn't think Truth would make such a low-level mistake.

"Of course not." As soon as this was mentioned, a smile appeared on Matthew's face, and he jokingly said: "The letters to Miss Truth are all in Apartment B, No. 221 Baker Street, Londinium Woolen cloth."

"That apartment has been bought by us now. After a while, after the "Sherlock Holmes" series really becomes popular, we will transform it into a Sherlock Holmes memorial—this is Mr. Holmes' idea."

Wei Gong was taken aback for a moment when he heard the words, and realized in the next second that Mash was playing a joke in "Sherlock Holmes".In the book, Sherlock Holmes lives in Apartment B, No. 221 Baker Street, London.

I didn't expect that the truth would integrate the address with the content of Sherlock Holmes' novels. This is also an interesting thing. This will make the "Sherlock Holmes fans" in this world more curious about this series, right?

However, what Emiya is even more curious about is that the Victoria of this world actually has the place name of Baker Street?It seems that the world of Terra and Emiya's original world still have many things in common.

That's fine, this is the effect that Emiya wanted.Although Sherlock Holmes has been summoned now, the "Sherlock Holmes" series is a point that can be used. The existence of Sherlock Holmes will definitely add fire to Victoria, who has not yet appeared due to the appearance of Napoleon.

"Speaking of which, Holmes has been saying that he will settle accounts with Moriarty. What happened in the end?"

"Mr. Holmes is a man of his word. He took Mr. Frankenstein, Mr. Babbage, and Mr. Lancelot to find Mr. Moriarty ... and said that he had discussed it in detail. gone."

And when this matter was mentioned, Matthew's eyes also became a little serious.Seriously reporting to Weigong: "Mr. Moriarty also apologized for what he caused. Mr. Holmes specially made a video for this. If you want to watch it, senior, I have a backup here."

"...No, I don't want it anymore, as long as he can admit his mistakes."

Emiya was slightly speechless, and while feeling a little familiar with the team looking for Moriarty to settle accounts, he also said to Matthew: "How well does Moriarty know about the deep pool?"

"According to Mr. Holmes' report, Moriarty has basically completed his mastery of the deep pool. Although the entire deep pool organization seems to be under the leadership of the leader, it is actually moving according to Moriarty's rhythm."

"Some time ago, Shenchi had declared his allegiance to Mr. Napoleon's re-emerged Gaul Empire. Now, Victoria's Aslan and Drake's orthodox heirs are all under Mr. Napoleon's hands."

"During this period, Gaul's expansion slowed down a bit. Victoria lost its rule over a large area of ​​the country and fell into civil strife. Now the Victorian royal family still has some difficulty in regaining control of the rhythm."

"Everything is within your expectations, senior, it's really great."

"——But there are still some troublesome things." Emiya didn't feel very happy about these expected things. Since he withdrew from the state of black A, he has relieved a lot of things, but he also feels more and more If this world wants to maintain a balance, the war must be declared an end.

Among them, there is no doubt that Ursus is a major source of endless wars in the Terra world today. Now Kosche still holds most of Ursus's power. This existence that wants to remake Ursas' greatness is absolutely They won't let it go - even if Emiya just destroyed their demon transformation factory.

The other is Kazdale. Although Tracy has returned to Kazdale and can no longer control Victoria, he is not a person who is waiting to die. In a sense, he is the same person as Kosche , but he takes a longer view than Kosiche.

He doesn't do it now because the time is not ripe, and Heroic Spirit will also be a force that he needs to fight for. Tracy is very clear that it is impossible to compete with Heroic Spirit with the current Kazdel alone.

"Now what we need to contain is the power of Ursas, but I hesitate, for the existence of Ivan the Terrible..."

"The appearance of Ivan the Terrible probably won't stop the expansion of Ursus. He is a very difficult to control existence. I'm thinking...whether I can start from the side and start from other countries to let Ursas Throwing rats."

"...Senior, do you mean to attack the heroic spirits of other countries?"

And Matthew also quickly understood what Emiya meant, and then asked with some hesitation: "Although the territory of Ursas is very large, whether it is Casimir, Victoria, Gaul or Colombia, we have already tried to use it. The Heroic Spirit was shocked, but it still had no effect."

"—That's because these countries are not a big enough threat to Ursus."

But at this moment, Wei Gong had vaguely figured out something, and his eyes turned to Longmen, a very important economic field of Yan Kingdom.

Perhaps... the Yan Kingdom can make Ursus feel scared. If there is news of the heroic spirit in the closed Yan Kingdom, then it will make Kosiche really stalk the mouse.

However, the heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom... how many Wei Gong are there?

"...It seems that there are indeed, but, it is too outrageous."

Thinking of the heroic spirits that FGO has, Wei Gong's expression is a little uncomfortable-how outrageous is FGO's character design to make these characters look like this!

Chapter 255: Visiting Wei Yanwu's Chen Palace

"Senior, are you... very hesitant about the appearance of these heroic spirits?"

Matthew obviously saw Wei Gong's entanglement, but she didn't seem to know the source of Wei Gong's hesitation—is summoning the heroic spirit of Yan Kingdom so much psychological burden to the senior?

"You don't understand, Matthew, I have to think a lot about issues related to the Yan Kingdom. There are some personal emotions in it, that's for sure, but I also have to consider the Yan Kingdom in the Terra continent. The commonality with the country I am familiar with."

"Although it is a historical fault, it is different from places like Victoria and Gaul. Everything in Yan Kingdom is quite mysterious, and there are many old monsters and gods who don't know how long they have lived..."

"I'm very worried. If the heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom I summon are completely different from those who know the memory... Will there be any trouble?"

"And according to my personal guess, the original appearance of those heroic spirits is definitely not the one I drew! This one - I don't know how to describe it, as weird as it is."

Emiya really doesn’t know how to describe the heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom in FGO. These heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom have been magically changed from top to bottom, and it is almost impossible to see, because Wei Gong has never played it, and has not used the PSP to visit FEccc. Therefore, even if he knew that some Chinese heroic spirits had appeared in that game, he didn't play it on purpose.

The heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom all have a serious history that can be studied, but I don’t know what the Xingyue Society is. An outrageous one.

Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about the heroic spirits of Yan Kingdom that Wei Gong has but has not released for a long time. The image of these few is very different from Wei Gong’s cognition since he was a child. , It can only be boiled down to one sentence - Xingyueshe, what serious illness do you have?

"Well, senior, I don't think this is a problem at all."

However, Mash finally understood what Wei Gong was struggling with, and only saw this understanding schoolgirl smiled slightly and said: "Actually, even the heroic spirits in other places are all related to legends, epics or history. There are some differences in the records on the Internet, this is the existence of heroic spirits."

"For example, Mr. Napoleon, he should have a five-short figure according to history, but because of the fusion of all the legends about 'Napoleon', he turned into this heroic appearance-but you knew it at the time, you didn't know the past. What is Mr. Napoleon like to be so relieved."

"But I think, even if there is a difference, so what? The existence of heroic spirits is enough to shock people, and it is slightly different from the historical records... It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

"That's what I said..." However, Matthew's consolation and Gu Ran still had some effect, but Wei Gong still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart. He didn't have many heroic spirits on hand. The Chinese heroic spirits who arrived accounted for a lot of weight, and the rest were some Wei Gong who felt that there would be greater troubles in this world.

In comparison, the troubles caused by these heroic spirits of the Yan Kingdom are probably considered minor, but the shape is rather weird...

"...Forget it, since you have already decided, you have to give it a try."

"Then, let's start with the dragon gate first, and do a warm-up from the dragon gate first, just in case there is too much noise, and there will be a chance to end it at that time..."

……

At the same time, Emiya's decision did not attract the attention of others at all.On this day, Wei Yanwu, who is in charge of Longmen, was the same as usual. After finishing the "rehabilitation training" that had no effect other than comforting himself and exercising his body, he was still wandering around in his compound in a wheelchair.

Since the end of the Holy Grail War and Wei Yanwu's lower body was paralyzed, he seemed to have nothing to do all day long. After seeing a lot of things, he began to cultivate his heir—that is, Chen Huijie. He hoped that his niece could become the next one. The ruler of Longmen.

Of course, there must be many obstacles, first of all, his jealous younger brother, he can't just ignore Wei Yanwu's niece taking over the position of ruler of Longmen, Wei Yanwu has always been a threat to his younger brother , even if Wei Yanwu is disabled now, and his strength is not half of what he was at the peak, the monitoring of Wei Yanwu will not be reduced by half.

However, Wei Yanwu himself knew about these difficulties a long time ago, and he had already made up his mind to help Chen Huijie smooth out all the problems in his short life at that time.

"There is one thing that makes me very relieved. Xiao Chen and Xiaota are not particularly indifferent to me, and I, who is paralyzed, probably have value."

"—Could it be that you think those two children will bully you? Bully you, an old man who is about to retire and still encounters an accident?"

But at this moment, Wen Yue walked over from behind Wei Yanwu with a blanket, and after covering Wei Yanwu, she said calmly:

"They just don't understand your difficulties. You are also a boring gourd yourself. You never tell them what you think. If you don't communicate, how can you understand each other?"

"...I just feel that there are some things that I really can't say." Wei Yanwu also said awkwardly.

Since the Holy Grail War, although Wei has become like this, the relationship between him and Wenyue is better than before, and there is really a feeling of mutual affection—since Little Jack disappeared, Wenyue seems to want to I have cleared up a lot of things, and I am no longer obsessed with "children".

This is also a major reason why Wei Gong never let Little Jack find Wenyue. On the one hand, Wei Gong himself is Little Jack's "mother" now; Jack such a "spiritual consolation".

Both Chen and Tallulah had already seen Wei Yanwu now. At that time, Wei Gong was still worried that the second daughter might overreact, but unexpectedly, after the Holy Grail War, Chen watched Wei Yanwu become like this. With a look, he became silent in a rare way. At that time, Wei Gong could see a bit of sadness in Chen's eyes.

Although this heroic senior police superintendent quickly suppressed his weakness, in the following period of time, Chen obviously became more serious about his work than before, and would go to take care of Wei Yanwu every now and then. , The stiff relationship between the uncle and nephew was eased a lot because of what happened to Old Wei.

Tallulah is also similar, after she saw Wei Yanwu become like this, and Wenyue specifically pulled Tallulah to say something, Tallulah finally left silently after staring at Wei Yanwu for a long time.

Although she didn't come to visit every now and then like Chen did, she finally chose to let go of the anger in her heart. As for her relationship with Old Wei... just pretended not to see it.

"That's all right...I've done so many wrong things that I never hoped everything would be right again."

"In this way, Xiaota is fine, and Xiao Chen is fine. Even if I really go to hell in the future, I won't have to face Xiaota's father and my sister without shame."

Wei Yanwu muttered to himself like this, the more he lived recently, the more open-minded he was, and he also felt that his time was short, at most two to thirty years, and his old life would be considered an account.

But at this moment, a figure came to Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue from the side - it was Wen Yue's personal bodyguard, Bai Xue.

"Master Wenyue, and Lord Wei Yanwu, there are people visiting, their behavior and dress are extremely strange, it seems that they are from Yan Kingdom."

"Yanguo?" Wei Yanwu suddenly regained his energy when he heard the words, and asked with a slight frown: "I haven't heard of any imperial envoys visiting recently."

"It's not an imperial envoy, but it seems to be an official from the Yan Kingdom." But Bai Xue replied truthfully: "He is accompanied by a... um... a huge robot?"

"Bai Xue doesn't know how to describe it. The person who came here asked to see Mr. Wei Yanwu by name and surname, saying that he was visiting the local wealthy gentry."

"...Did you name the person who came here?" Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue looked at each other, and Wei Yanwu already sensed that the person who came here had other purposes, so he asked again.

After Bai Xue recalled it slightly, she reported word by word:

"Here, the name is 'Chen Gong', the character is 'Gongtai', and he claims to be a counselor."

Chapter 256: Chen Gong: Old Wei, are you rebelling?

"Mr. Chen Gong... Hello, this is the first time we meet, I am Wei Yanwu, the ruler of Longmen."

"It's been a long time, Mr. Wei Yanwu. It's really rude and rude to visit without notification."

And in Wei Yanwu's mansion, he finally saw the person named "Chen Gong" mentioned by Bai Xue at this moment - a man who could be known to be a counselor at a glance, with lavender hair, and a confident and confident face. He has a strategic and standard appearance, and wears official clothes, but according to Wei Yanwu's understanding, this design of official clothes was abandoned a long time ago in the history of Yan Kingdom, and now it is something close to cultural relics.

Moreover, the official uniforms are more or less nondescript, and the clothes are obviously not in accordance with the rules and etiquette. They are neither majestic nor dignified. Even local officials would not wear this kind of official uniforms. The identity of the person is even more suspicious.

However, you can't directly treat the other party as a charlatan. Even if you are really a charlatan, you can be considered a courageous charlatan if you dare to meet the ruler of Longmen as soon as you come to Longmen.

Anyway, Wei Yanwu has nothing to do when he is free, so it doesn't hurt to meet him, and he doesn't lose anything.

"Mr. Chen Gong's attire...shouldn't he be an imperial envoy from the capital?"

"It's really not. It's ashamed to say that even in the most glorious moment, I was never an official in the capital. I was just a counselor."

When Chen Gong heard the words, he laughed lightly, but he didn't lie.He was just a magistrate at the beginning, and then he followed Cao Cao and defected halfway, and finally followed Lu Bu.

Lu Bu had the title of "Marquis of Wen" at that time, and later he also called himself Xuzhou Mu, but after all, it was not a real edict from the imperial court. Therefore, it is okay for him to say that he is not an official in the capital.

"Well... since it's not an imperial envoy, why do you want to see me?" Wei Yanwu was a little relieved when he heard that. What he was most worried about now was that there was an imperial envoy from the capital. In a sense, the imperial envoy represented the emperor. The meaning is, the emperor, that is, Wei Yanwu's jealous younger brother - he can see Wei Yanwu's dislike.

But Wei Yanwu was not completely relieved, he couldn't see through the man named "Chen Gong" in front of him, he didn't know how deep this man who claimed to be a counselor had, but he was definitely not an ordinary person.

And... the one beside him really dare not ignore him.

"Also, who is this? No, is this a human or a machine?" Wei Yanwu looked at the extremely burly man standing beside Chen Gong, wearing tiger skin and armor—or a robot. ?Suddenly, even Wei Yanwu didn't know whether this guy was a person or a thing.

"Oh, Mr. Wei Yanwu, please be careful with your words. You can't let the general hear these words." But Chen Gong deliberately put on a look of being frightened by Wei Yanwu's words, and then turned his head to the side said:

"Hahaha, General Lu Bu, please be safe and don't take it. I believe that Wei Yanwu's lord was unintentional. What's more, it's really unexpected that you will appear in such a form."

"Roar--!!"

However, from the mouth of the burly man named "Lu Bu", there was a machine-like roar, which made people feel terrified when they heard it, as if the battle roar was directed at them.

Wei Yanwu, who was sitting in a wheelchair, drove the wheelchair to Wenyue almost immediately. At this moment, Wei Yanwu's expression was very serious, staring at Lu Bu's burly body, for fear that this seemingly irrational giant robot would suddenly attack.

In the dark, Bai Xue and many other black minions were also on guard from the very beginning. If Chen Gong and Lu Bu had any abnormalities, they would immediately step forward to protect Wei Yanwu and Wen Yue.

"Ah, I understand, but you, General, know that the local gentry and gentry must respect you, and you understand this truth, General." But Chen Gong didn't take Lu Bu's battle cry seriously at all, just like he usually does. As easy as chatting, he said to Lu Bu:

"I know you have suffered from Chen Gui and Chen Deng, and you distrust the local gentry very much, but if you don't trust it, you don't trust it, general, don't be impatient."

"Roar--!"
