Zongman: Picked up Medea at the beginning

At the beginning, it was said in the interview that Ryougi Shiki, who was connected to the root, was only as strong as an average Noble Phantasm Servant, and could only fight defensive battles against such servants.

So what is an average Noble Phantasm Servant?

It's the kind with a Noble Phantasm level around B.

The most typical one is probably the gun brush.

No, the interviews during that time period should have been talking about brushes. After all, there were not as many servants released at that time as there are later.

Then the setting was quickly eaten up.

In Tsukihime Fight, a fighting game that also features Mushroom, the Root Style is brought directly to the level of the princess, Elquet!

El Quette

No matter what, it's an exaggeration to say that she is a Pingbao follower.

Afterwards, an even more ruthless character appeared in the maze, Root Shiki, who appeared as a hidden boss. Before meeting the protagonists, she was only one away from killing 100 servants, and she killed ninety-nine servants!

If I have to give a roundup, then maybe it would be killing ninety-nine weak ones?

Finally, fight the Earl in FGO.

Maybe the mushroom knew that it had eaten too much and deliberately controlled itself, but it still deliberately showed its root-like presence before the count ran away and blurred its combat effectiveness.

Later, Mushroom first said in the interview that the root form of the Peace Servant for defensive battles was given EX tools in FGO!

The four-star Ryougi Shiki gives an EX tool, and the five-star Ryougi Shiki also gives an EX tool, but they are different EX tools.

And also, Aika Sajo once had a dream in the plot. In the dream, she was about to touch the Holy Grail, and then the Holy Grail was inexplicably taken away by the Origin Style.

Therefore, the Root Type can be said to be the typical one in the Type-Moon world, with a miraculous existence, miraculous combat power, and everything about it being miraculous.

Compared to someone like Sajo Aika who directly tells you that her strength is above that of a magician, she has the power of the primordial goddess, the womb of all beasts, manifested in the [Monster Princess], and has revived the Ten Crowns of the Beast of the Apocalypse. She can learn magic from the Age of Gods if she wants to. The great alchemist surrendered on the spot after seeing this, the poison of Hassan of Silence was ineffective, and Brunhilde's treasure without love was taken on by her without any injury.

But it was also said that if he fought Brunhilde in her prime head-on, he would not be able to handle it and might even be killed. To fight Raito, he would need to make a detour from the side and play dirty, a typical magician-type BUG character.

The root setting is too vague.

Although Roland didn't think the Origin Style could compete with the Extraordinary Servant after having a preconceived notion based on Mushroom's initial interview, even if Mushroom had changed the settings a few times, she was a character with such a vague setting after all, so what would be drawn from her card pool?

After all, this is Ryougi Shiki who is connected to the root. Regardless of whether it is strong or not, but since it is related to the root, it shouldn't be surprising what you can draw, right?

Roland pressed the lottery option with this thought in mind.

Then he saw this prompt.

[Congratulations on obtaining the skill Gravity Manipulation]

Gravity manipulation!?

Roland was really surprised when he saw this skill.

After all, gravity, electromagnetic interaction, weak interaction, and strong interaction - these are the four well-known fundamental forces!

It is a bit complicated to explain in detail the application of these four fundamental forces.

But in short, gravity is different from the other three fundamental forces.

The electromagnetic force affects electric charges, the weak force affects most particles, and the strong force affects nucleons, mesons, and the like.

So all three are not that easy to use, and simple applications always feel a bit wasteful.

After you have basically got it, you still have to learn some basic knowledge.

But gravity is different.

Gravity affects all particles.

If we want to explain it from the perspective of particles, and then talk about quantum fluctuations, quantum annealing, and multiple local minima in discrete space, it will be very troublesome. Even the Casimir effect is actually quite difficult to explain.

But in short, when it comes to the application of gravity, as long as you can make bricks fly with great force, then the direction will be almost correct.

In the theory of relativity, gravity is viewed as a manifestation of the curvature of space-time caused by mass.

This is also the reason why Roland said it was a bit reluctant to call his micro black hole this name when he was talking about it.

Because his method completely relies on collapsing the channel of the imaginary space towards the interior of the imaginary space, just like digging a hole in the channel of the imaginary space, and then using force to pull other substances to the slope of the hole, and then let these substances be poured into the imaginary space along the slope.

Although it is essentially a simulation of a black hole, it is far inferior to the real black hole.

A real black hole has a very strong attraction, but that attraction does not feel like something is pulling on something.

A black hole is equivalent to a pit in space. The appearance of this pit causes the curvature of space, and then the space creates an arc. The surrounding things will be poured into the black hole, so the attraction can even absorb light.

The reason for this space curvature phenomenon is the huge mass of the black hole.

The force that brings about this mass is gravity.

Even if you don't understand gravitational fields, you have probably seen a ball passing through the air, and then there is a transparent grid underneath. After the object passes through, part of the grid collapses, as if the weight of the ball is materialized.

To put it simply, a black hole is a collapse phenomenon that occurs in space.

To use gravity, that's all you need to know.

It's that simple!

This made Roland happy for a moment, and he immediately went to see how this skill controlled gravity.

Then he easily discovered that although gravity control was the same as other skills and did not consume anything, the strength of gravity control was related to one's own mental strength.

The higher your mental strength, the greater the mass you can push with gravity.

This just hit Roland's weakest point.

Roland's spirit must be stronger than that of ordinary people.

After all, he has the blessing of the gods, and the blessing has reached Lv3, which also enhances the spirit.

but...

Other than that there is no increase.

The attribute improvements brought about by the fusion of his shadows are all physical attributes. As for the spirit... where does the spirit come from in those shadows!

As a result, the promotion ladders of the Shadow Puppet and Shadow Wolf would not improve their spirits. Shadow Puppet, Shadow Dragon, Shadow Wolf, Shadow Warrior... There were so many of them, but Roland was the only one with spirit...

With his current Lv3 mental amplification, it is not difficult for him to manipulate gravity to perform the likes of Wanxiang Tianyin and Shinra Tensei.

He even felt that there was no need to go through so much trouble. It would be much simpler to just use gravitational pressure, that is, to attack the enemy by using gravity suppression.

The micro black hole he created himself, this skill, combined with his magic, can now be used even without the Shadow Puppet as a detonator.

And he had some new ideas.

But condensing a real black hole is a bit problematic.

If he collapses space, the mass that the gravity he can control now will not be enough to affect it.

But if raising spirit can increase the strength of this skill...

Well, it is useful now, and there is hope for the future.

While Roland was experimenting with his gravity control skills, Hisahi no Tori and Aozaki Touko had finished discussing the duel.

The two sides competed - the matter was settled!

At the moment this matter was settled, in the outer suburbs of Misaki City, underground, a monster with four silver claws and a mouth on its head, which looked particularly like an alien, let out a hideous laugh.

Next to him, an ordinary-looking man wearing a pair of glasses began to speak with a smile.

"Rahmu, your smile is so ugly."

If Kurogiri Hana or Aozaki Touko were also here, they would probably be able to recognize that the man with glasses is Kurogiri Mikiya who disappeared many years ago!

Of course, Aozaki Touko would probably call him - Roya now!

"What do you know!"

The monster called Lahmu let out a piercing roar at Roya with its only remaining mouth.

"My mother was exiled to the imaginary space by that group of rebellious sons for so many years. In order to get out, she created me, the human of the new era! In order to rescue my mother, I have been preparing for so many years. Now I have provoked the dispute between the fifth magician and her sister, and expanded the scale - you know how important this is to my plan!"

Hearing what Lahmu said, Roya's expression remained unchanged.

"Rescue the goddess of creation Tiamat. Although I do know the whole picture of your plan, I still think you think too simply. The fifth magician will not really fight to the death with her sister."

"The so-called competition will probably be very peaceful. It's so boring that I don't even have the interest to watch it."

Roya's words made Lahmu's tone become ferocious again.

"Of course it is like this now, but I have waited for so many years, and finally found an opportunity here, so I don't mind a little more time - of course they won't fight to the death at the beginning, but what if one of them is really angry?"

"That fifth magician probably wouldn't do anything too extreme if he kept losing, but what about that Aozaki Touko?"

"If her self-esteem wasn't so strong, she wouldn't have agreed to compete with the magic society after I provoked her with a little trick."

"So just wait, my plan will succeed sooner or later."

"When the time comes, I will rescue my mother from the imaginary space, and then usher in a new era for the world!"

Hearing what Lahmu said, Roya took the initiative to speak.

"So when that time comes, as a hero of the new world, I will have no problem getting what I need, right?"

"Of course~ Then I can even propose that Mother turn you into a noble new human being, allowing you to become a world aristocrat and enjoy privileges in the new world!"

After saying these two sentences, Roya and Rahmu were silent for a while, and then as if they had reached some tacit understanding in the silence, they suddenly burst into laughter together. For a moment, the laughter filled the entire underground space and echoed in the deep darkness.

....

12. Return to the Imaginary Space

"I know the format of the competition."

After asking about the situation at the Kyuubi no Tōri, Aozaki Touko returned to Roland, and then she told him all these things in one go.

"This competition is divided into three rounds. The other team decides the first round, and we decide the second round. Finally, we draw lots to choose which side will decide the third round."

"And the three games are not put together. The interval between the three games will be determined according to the content of the competition."

"The first match was decided by the other party. They said that within the next three months, our respective magic associations would each make a magic costume for battle, and after three months, we would see which magic costume was more powerful."

After Aozaki Touko finished speaking, Roland nodded.

"It makes sense that the three matches are not put together. After all, it is a competition between magicians. If we rush, it will be difficult to prepare. Besides, the first match is about making magic costumes. It can be seen that the opponent does not seem to intend to make things too ugly."

After hearing Roland's analysis, Aozaki Touko nodded, expressing her approval of what Roland said, with a slight smile on her face.

But Roland changed the subject next.

"But the Ancient Bird was established by your sister and 14's friend. They must know you. You are a top puppeteer. If you take out magic costumes for battle, then you can slightly modify some puppets and make puppet-type magic costumes. In this way, you will have a great advantage... So I suspect that the other party is prepared this time."

Aozaki Touko raised an eyebrow.

"Originally, I was planning to go directly to Bazette and ask her to make me a sword with reverse light, and then use it to participate in the competition."

"But if you say so... the puppet you used as a target for me is Aritsumura's new familiar?"

Roland shrugged.

"Then who knows?"

"But since it's a competition, why not just stop thinking about it? Wouldn't it be better to go all out from the beginning? Medea is in Fuyuki. After Bazette takes Altria and Beo to deal with the Magic Association, she will come back. And after Illya finishes dealing with Einzbern, she will move to Einzbern Castle in Fuyuki City. She told me about this before she left."

"So you, Medea, Bazette, and Illya, the new third magician, the four of you are participating in the production together. Even if the Faraway Bird has some preparations, they will definitely not be as good as yours."

Roland's words reminded Aozaki Touko of something.

That is, before she and Roland came to Guanbuzi City, Medea had intended to exchange puppet technology with her in the name of technology exchange.

It is said that Medea needed puppet technology in order to create something called a mecha.

In my understanding, it should be a giant puppet. Although Medea denied the name of a giant puppet, I think it is also a ceremonial costume.

In that case...how about trying to cooperate with Medea to complete a mecha god joining the war?

"I have some ideas. Medea mentioned to me before that she wanted to make a giant puppet called the Mecha God. I don't know if three months is enough, but if it can be completed, something that is valued by a magician of the Age of Gods like Medea should be enough for us to win the first game."

hiss--

When Roland heard Aozaki Orange mention the word Mecha God, his eyes widened.

Medea actually plans to create a mecha! ?

Roland certainly knew about the Greek pantheon, but he didn't know that Medea actually had the relevant technology in this area.
