Fujimaru Ritsuka, but the main god space

Chapter 238 Ex-Machina: Great, I have gradually understood everything

[Individual identification number üc207Pr4f5t9——Request for communication with 'ü Linked Body First Commander'.]

It was a "wilderness" far away from human tribes and from the areas where any of the sixteen races were active.

The strongest of the Dragon Race, his battle with the God of War Artosh created a wound that nearly tore the planet apart.

And at the starting point of that scar, life is barren, just like the radiation caused by a nuclear bomb that makes all living things dare not approach. The world drained dry by the gods and the Dragon King, it is difficult to repair the hole even after a thousand years.

At this time, Shubi agreed to Ritsuka's conditions and came here to summon his fellow tribesmen.

In order to obtain the second key to end the war.

『Communication』——Calling the Ex-Machina 『Link』 that had disposed of him in the past.

——No response.

Of course, the Ex-Machinas are almost equivalent to machines, and their behavior patterns are extremely rigid. For the "individuals" that have been abandoned, the Ex-Machinas will regard them as "viruses".

Just like a human being would be cut off when a piece of flesh dies, the Ex-Machinas would abandon Hubie.

Just like humans would not deliberately look back at the flesh they had cut off, the Ex-Machina would not pay attention to Shuvi's communication.

unless
This piece of rotten flesh and blood is still worth studying.

[Apply again, analysis of the 'heart' is complete - please allow 'synchronization' - allow reconnection! ]

——The communication has been responded to.

【üc207Pr4f5t9, your machine is in a permanent disconnection status, and the application is rejected. 】

[The application is rejected. 『All Linked Body Commander (Einzig)』, any report from the 『Analysis Body』 to Einzig, ——Yuba Ein, your machine should not have the power to refuse transmission. 】

Wearing a coat made of animal skins and furs, under the falling snow, Shubi calmly tried to reach his origin - the combined form of the Ex-Machina species called Einzishi.

[This machine will not upload any information, but accordingly, dialogue is expected. ]

【.】

The person in charge of the Ex-Machina paused for a long time, but still responded later.

[The coordinates of the aircraft have been obtained. Please wait where you are. 】

Hubie's tense body immediately relaxed, and Rick, who was standing beside him, immediately supported him.

In fact, because they want to induce a global war, at least one of Rik and Hubie must be in the command room to prevent special situations. More importantly, it would be very dangerous for Rick to be on the battlefield far away from the human tribe, so neither Ritsuka nor Hubie recommends letting the other come.

but--

[I have already prepared all the inductions for the war in advance, and even if there are special circumstances, Hubie's connection network is the first source of information. Whether I am there or not, the delayed information will not affect the battlefield.]

[Besides, your heroic spirit will protect the entire area by then, so I won't be in danger. If someone can penetrate your defense and attack, killing our trump card, then there is no need to continue this war.]

They are all lies and fallacies.

But it cannot be refuted.

In reality, Rick just wanted to stay with Hubie. After all, he was asking for a conversation with the connector he once abandoned, which was as awkward as a daughter who was kicked out of her home handing over a wedding invitation to her former parents after finding her ideal husband.

"At times like this, Rick, as the 'husband', must be present - Rick must be thinking so in his heart." Hubie whispered in Rick's arms, and the latter blushed immediately.

"Me! I didn't think so! babababababaka!"

"It's obviously Chu Nan."

"This has absolutely nothing to do with Chu Nan!?"

Well.

Ritsuka standing by was surprised and opened his mouth.

Wow, what a corny couple. Luckily they are not my parents, otherwise I would be so unlucky.

But I'm used to it.

We are used to eating it from guys like Xiang Yu and Siegfried. The so-called master is someone who generously blesses beautiful things.

——But if I’m not here to break things up, but to join things up, then that’s fine, right? (licks)
At this point, Ritsuka has already deployed Triple God of War.

Red A.

Chiron.

Arjuna.

Three extremely powerful servants were deployed at three locations on the battlefield to eliminate all possible threats without any blind spots.

Ritsuka must make this "negotiation" a success.

No, there is a slight error.

And that [opportunity] has arrived.

It didn't take as long as expected before Hong A's call came from Ritsuka's mind.

[Master, the Ex-Machina has sent a machine over. ]

One, of course.

If the Ex-Machinas openly carried out a large-scale movement, all other races on the entire continent would be alert.

One machine was a message that they respected the negotiation and did not want outside interference, but it was also a warning - even if there was an ambush, at most one Ex-Machina could be killed.

As for the remaining Ex-Machinas, they will drive out and destroy the enemy at all costs.

After confirming the danger of the opponent, Red A let him go, and Ritsuka and the others also saw the appearance of the Ex-Machina.

"Hello, visitor."

That Ex-Machina, descended from the sky.

Her hair is quite special, with a unique three-color gradient.

First it's rose red at the top, then dark blue in the middle, and finally turns into sea green.

Just like the Flügel have halos on their heads, the Ex-Machina also have a circular mechanical structure on the left side of their heads, like a different kind of hair accessory; around their necks they wear a collar-like necklace secured by a golden buckle.

Her eyes had white pupils that faded from sea green to sky blue, framed by crimson eyelashes.

"【Greetings】——My name is Individual Identification Number üc107gp4k5te. Nice to meet you, Mr. Fujimaru Ritsuka."

"!!"

Right at the beginning, the other party revealed Ritsuka's real name.

But the three people present were not surprised by this "show of strength".

The Ex-Machina's intelligence control is spread across the entire planet, so it's not surprising that the other party captured Ritsuka's audio from a corner - after all, this person has never seriously hidden himself, and there is no need to hide.

The people who are truly guiding the direction of the war know Ritsuka's intentions, but they will still be pushed by this conspiracy.

The weak can do nothing, while the strong can only wait.

I look forward to what changes this little hero can bring to the planet.

The Ex-Machina saw this, but did not get discouraged, and nodded.

"【Question】——Individual Identification Number üc207Pr4f5t9, what is the content of the communication you desire?"

Hubie: "End this war. In return, we will provide the [Goal of Survival] that the Ex-Machinas are pursuing."

Quick answer.

The Ex-Machina who got the answer did not change his expression.

Of course, an Ex-Machina without a 'heart' would not have any unnecessary expressions. What it did have were just electron streams flashing in its eyes, and then -

"【Shocked】——I didn't expect to hear such an explosive topic. Please allow me to express my surprise."

The Ex-Machina who still looked like a beautiful girl suddenly opened her mouth, revealing her white teeth and pink tongue, as if she was trying to imitate an expression of 'surprise'.

However, since the upper half of her face did not change at all, she looked more like a cold beauty who spoke after the doctor shouted "Ah~ open your mouth~".

"Are all you Ex-Machinas like this?" Recalling the first time he met Hubie, Rick laughed and teased his wife beside him. The latter did not react at all. She read the message but did not reply. She was only thinking about how to punish her husband when she got back.

On the other side, the conversation continued, and the Ex-Machina finished his expression and closed his mouth.

"【Negative】——I need to identify the subject: Fujimaru Ritsuka——Show evidence."

The Ex-Machina did not ask Ritsuka why he knew that the Ex-Machina's pursuit was to find the 'purpose of survival'.

They care more about the results than that.

The story begins a long time ago
The origin of the Ex-Machinas is a [small cube] created by an unknown god.

The reason for creation was to allow the Ex-Machinas to answer the questions of the Gods themselves.

However, the newly born machine could not respond to that expectation, so the disappointed god pierced through his own soul, leaving only innocent machines.

Includes [Observation] [Analysis] [Design] [Combat] [Command] models.

The machines began to multiply and transform themselves, and then, like their gods, they began to question themselves—

Why does it exist?

The meaning of survival.

This is a question that humans will spend their entire lives pursuing.

But the problem of the Ex-Machinas is even more serious - they cannot feel joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness.

A machine without a heart cannot become a human being.

Even the emotion of 'distress' is extremely shallow.

However, for such people——

"Have you ever thought about reading other people's souls directly?"

“[——]”

The beautiful Ex-Machina girl in front of him was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head, was stunned again, and raised her head again.

"【Negative】——Although we will force other life units to cooperate with our experiments, we cannot directly read the information of the 'soul'. Although memories can be converted into electrical signals for transmission, they do not include the 'heart' part, and the 'heart' of other species may not match that of the Ex-Machina."

When talking about 'heart', the Ex-Machina glanced at Shuvi in ​​the distance, because it was Shuvi who first proposed the term 'heart'.

"What about the self-questioning method?" Lixiang mentioned again.

"Did you start out in this state?"

"【Negative】——According to the records, the first Ex-Machina was a cube."

"Then why did you change to a human form? Isn't it because this posture is closer to other races? In other words, you have been trying to imitate other races since a long time ago, so why do you think that the 'hearts' of other races are not worth trying?"

“[——]”

It's down again.

The Ex-Machina's posture after being refuted is very interesting. It will purse its lips and stand still, and it will come back to its senses after a while.

"【Affirmation】——I understand, but, as I said, pure memory does not contain the element of 'heart', because the stimulation and emotions accompanying memory cannot be transmitted, and pure electronic signals——" "So, let me do it."

Ritsuka interrupted, and at the same time, he took a step forward.

what?
By him?
How to do it? Ritsuka wants to hand over the memory transfer that even the Ex-Machinas can't do?
Damn it, what confidence does the Master have! What are you planning to do? !
Could it be that--

"I will use a [Netherworld] to let my soul cover and erode your body, temporarily synchronizing with you so that you can sense my emotions."

"Indeed, simple memory may not be enough to make a machine empathize."

"So, use my soul to make you feel it."

That's right! ! !

It's necromancy!

Even if ordinary memories are passed on to the Ex-Machinas, they can only allow the Ex-Machinas to deepen their understanding of the habits of the Imanity.

Even if they have all the emotions, the Ex-Machina will miss that 'opportunity'.

In order for the Ex-Machina to understand the 'heart', there are necessary conditions.

It's not just 'time that has passed'.

But it is 'the time that passes by with doubts'.

The two are completely different.

Not only does it require a "soul", but it also requires extremely high-quality memory!

As machines, Ex-Machinas are always thinking, so to understand their logic, one needs an equally large amount of thinking and deep comprehension.

And this point——

Lixiang, that should be possible! (deep voice)

Because, the equation that best expresses the [heart] is [love]

Because that is the most unreasonable emotion of living things.

Because that is the most difficult relationship to draw conclusions from.

And the man who understands love the most in the world——

That is--

"So, do you want to give it a try?"

Master, smile.

Faced with such provocation.

Ex-Machina, how do you react?

Black face.

Bow down.

After about half a second, the data stream flashing in the eyes stopped flowing.

"【Affirmation】——I understand. I will temporarily disconnect myself from the Connectome and try to synchronize my memories with yours."

"But I need to remind you that even if I disconnect the link, the Ex-Machina's own database has already been shared. If your [Netherworld Ritual] causes the brain to overlap, you will instantly get an overload of data flow. For non-Ex-Machina and Gods, this is fatal overheating damage."

"So, let's make it clear first—"

The Ex-Machina raised his finger and said seriously.

"You are the challenger."

Then, can the Master suppress the Ex-Machinas? Overcome them!

Do not!
The terrifying data stream of the Ex-Machina is an overload of information second only to the infinite void!
The secrets and information of the entire planet are definitely not something that humans can control.

Five seconds!

Ritsuka could only hold out for five seconds at most in the face of such terror!
And can he use five seconds to blast the memory into the Ex-Machina brain! Use his own answer to 'love'! Hit these stupid heads! Insult!
It's unlikely (shakes head)

Please watch the next episode
What episode to download! This episode is broken down!
After accepting Ritsuka's proposal, the Ex-Machina shook Ritsuka's hand very sternly.

And Lixiang also began to chant.

Speaking of which, since Ritsuka obtained the spell of summoning spirits, he has never used it normally even once.

Because of his own peculiarities, Ritsuka has been using this technique to summon his companions to fight alongside him. Although the effect is indeed better than that of a certain Utakoi shrine maiden, it must be said that it has also lost its "orthodoxy".

And now, Ritsuka is going to use the spirit summoning to attach his own 'spirit' to the body of the Ex-Machina.

This is very dangerous.

but--

I walk alone on this dangerous road!
go! ! !
A powerful soul, with strong control! The transparent spirit began to leave the body and rushed to the desired location! ——

then!

Entered! (Deep voice)
Get in the hole! Then sprint!
That is the soul.

Soul of gold!
The soul merged with the Ex-Machina, causing the opponent's face to change drastically in an instant! Memories began to flow into the Ex-Machina's brain!

What she saw was wind and snow.

It is an inconspicuous white building in an extremely cold place in the world with wind and snow.

A young man was lying on the ground, sleeping soundly.

(Is this the memory of Fujimaru Ritsuka?)

The Ex-Machina began to watch the memory from a third-person perspective. If I had to make an analogy, it was like watching a player of a 2D mobile game.

(This should be non-threatening.)
The Ex-Machina made a judgment.

So she also synchronized this memory into the bodies of other Ex-Machinas.

Then keep watching.

Chaldea exploded, the girl's body was crushed, and the boy resolutely chose to save her.

It's a very righteous story, but the Ex-Machinas can't understand it.

They are heartless and just think that this way of action is too inefficient and unreasonable.

But she kept reading.

Conversations under the moon, crossing the blocked seas, walking the long American continent.
The Ex-Machina maintained a calm and objective attitude, examining all of this, but gradually, they began to feel itchy about the departure of the Heroic Spirit.

The journey continued, and the Ex-Machina thought that he had no emotional waves.

But after seeing a certain knight returning the holy sword across time, the Ex-Machina had no choice but to put themselves in his shoes.

Thousands of years, the Ex-Machinas have continued to answer the doubts of the Creator for thousands of years, ten thousand years, is it loyalty that drives us? No, it shouldn't be, but why is the power reactor shaking at this time?
Facing the attack of the Mother Goddess of Creation, watching the human soldiers charging at the monsters and dying miserably, watching the Golden King protecting his people even at death, watching many Heroic Spirits sacrificing themselves as phantoms of human history, the Ex-Machinas began to frown.

(No, these are all Fujimaru Ritsuka’s emotions.)
(It has nothing to do with me.)
This is just a mobile game.

I don't care who dies.

[Goetia, let me teach you the last magic trick. ]

Hey!! What are you doing!!
The focusing structure within the Ex-Machina's pupil began to expand and contract crazily.

Hey hey hey! Isn't this character just for the background?!

Isn't he the kind of character who specializes in making complaints?!

Why did he die!!!
No, you can’t die!!!
Gaba.

died.

[Senior, please hold my hand]

Gaba.

You are dead too!!!
[Your own love, protect it yourself! 】

You are not allowed to die!
[I'm sorry, I'm sorry... This is the first time in my life that I've saved a life.]

You are not allowed to die either? ! !

【I want to be a hero who protects my friends! 】

No! No wow!! Quack!!

The scorching temperature began to invade the whole body. Even if it was overloaded to imitate the killing move of the Dragon Spirit, it would never produce such a temperature. The terrifying force was like a stream of water, washing and stirring, completely insulting the soul of the Ex-Machina!

I don't know whether the soul exists or not, but at this moment, that ethereal concept is hotter, harder, and stronger than any entity!

Wow! Great! So majestic!!
It was as if he was ramming the Ex-Machina's brain as if it were a purple palace! Destruction!

Almost splitting the brain in half!
“Ah ...

Letting out a useless scream, the Ex-Machina covered its head with both hands and raised its head.

situation.

Righteousness.

霸。

mad.

fierce.

real.

Love.

The journey of Fujimaru Ritsuka, the emotions, the Ex-Machinas can feel more intuitively than anyone else.

Just finish watching "Fujimaru Ritsuka is challenging FGO" in one go!

Thoughts turned into a raging electronic virus, overwhelming the Ex-Machinas.

His eyes turned from blue to blood red, and the outer shell of his cheeks began to crumble as Rick and Hubie watched carefully.

All mental models were shattered, and everything was annihilated in an instant. A terrifying and dazzling holy fire rose up, like a meteor streaking across the sky, like a storm sweeping across the earth, and the sea of ​​fire covering the sky fell from the sky and raged violently.

Stars bloomed behind the Ex-Machina's head.

then
Those eyes slowly and blankly looked at Ritsuka.

".marvelous."

She looked up in a trance.

"I understand everything."
