Destroyer: Building a Dimensional Universe from Scratch
Chapter 40: Plowed by Artillery Fire
Lu Chen brought several ship girls, Gudako and several heroic spirits, and quickly arrived at the core area of Chaldea through dimensional anchoring.
Still in the deep central hall, the symbolic holographic globe, Chaldeas, was placed in the center, with a few sparkling lights on it outlining the locations of several abnormal points.
Dr. Roman and Da Vinci had been waiting here for a long time, and greeted their arrival with great anticipation.
"Mr. Lu, Chaldea will have to trouble you to help us again this time."
"The target of this soul transfer is the Roman Empire in the 1st century AD. That period of history was distorted due to the interference of a mysterious force."
"Your mission is to eliminate the anomaly, retrieve the Holy Grail, and ensure that history returns to normal."
The two looked slightly embarrassed, but Lu Chen responded generously:
"It's okay. This is what we agreed on before. We should work together to solve the problem."
He contributes manpower, Chaldea provides technical support, and they work together to ensure the safety of this world. They also take this opportunity to accumulate the magical knowledge and heroic spirit resources of the Type-Moon series, which can be said to be mutually beneficial.
"Fujimaru Ritsuka, how are you doing over there? How is your progress in learning magic?" Da Vinci asked Gudako with concern.
"I have mastered the use of certain combat equipment and learned more than twenty matching magic skills. Don't worry, today's ordinary servants are definitely not my opponents."
"My close combat ability is already comparable to Saber's." Gudako assured confidently.
Although Roman and Da Vinci did not know the details, they were moved by the heroic words.
Everyone moved to the front of the spirit particle calculation device.
"Then, I will still be in charge of this singularity operation." After clearing his throat, Lu Chen gave everyone an overview of the situation of the Eternal Madness Empire.
In a nutshell, in the 1st century AD, there was a chaotic conflict among many Roman emperors in the Roman Empire. Their goal was to end the chaos among successive emperors, restore the proper order of history, and retrieve the Holy Grail.
"The first task is to correct the deviations in this period of history. Second, to deal with the Greater Holy Grail. Finally, to recruit some heroic spirits from this era and bring them back to Chaldea."
"Understood!" During the second operation, everyone was obviously more skilled and stood in front of the spirit particle transfer device in an orderly manner.
Kewei, Yixian, Gudako, Mashu and other companions, plus Lu Chen, total seven people, just reaching the maximum number of people that the current spirit particle calculation device can accommodate.
"I wish you all a safe trip." Dr. Roman operated the equipment and officially started the transfer procedure.

[Second Singularity: Eternal City]
With a brief feeling of weightlessness and vision shrinking to a point and then rapidly expanding, when I opened my eyes again, what came into view was a wilderness scene similar to the first singularity, Orleans.
In the distance you can see rolling hills and lush forests. This is a more primitive place than Orleans during the Hundred Years' War in the 1st century AD.
"Survey the surrounding environment and explore the location of the spiritual vein." Lu Chen instructed, "Yixian, drop the detector. We are going to learn more about this singularity."
As a second-round player, Lu Chen naturally does not need to grope his way through the original story like Gudako did, running around under the orders of various forces. He only needs to use the starship to reach the target and crush it all the way.
The Yixian showed off its elegant cyan hull, and a 600-meter-long cruiser suddenly appeared in the open space. Although the size of the ship was slightly smaller than that of the Lijie and Dafeng, it was more agile and elegant.
After boarding the ship, the interior decoration presents a strong Donghuang classical style, with solid wood furniture, octagonal chandeliers, screens inlaid with landscape paintings, and a faint scent of incense, which makes people feel relaxed and complements the image of Yixian as a talented woman from the south of the Yangtze River.
"It's so beautiful. It feels completely different from the style of the Royal Navy and the Sakura Empire." Gudako and the other ship girl heroic spirits were all amazed.
"It is my honor to accompany the commander in carrying out the mission." The gentle woman Yixian led everyone into the main control room, her long black hair fluttering in the wind.
At this time, several reconnaissance planes were launched from the closed hangar and began to conduct reconnaissance in all directions.
"According to the coordinate analysis, we should be in the Italian area... In other words, the area of the Roman Empire."
Soon, the information came back. Looking down through the bridge window, a small city stood in the embrace of hills.
The Eternal City, Rome.
Its cultural influence spread to many European countries in later generations, including Greece, Western Europe and even northern countries. However, in the eyes of modern people who traveled through time on a starship, the Roman Empire in this world undoubtedly seems quite backward.
The size of its capital is less than one-thirtieth of the Star Alliance's capital.
"We are so far ahead. We are the real Roman Empire!" Gudako puffed out her chest and held her head high, as if she had forgotten her identity as the Master of Chaldea and instead regarded herself as a member of the Star Alliance.
"I have to remind you that you are now Chaldea..."
"It's okay. We can change the system in the future. Let me become the emperor and make you a general or something..." Gudako patted Lu Chen's shoulder.
Just as everyone was discussing whether the name of the Star Alliance should be used in the future, or whether it should be changed to the Star Empire or the Holy Roman Empire.
"Commander, fighting has been detected below."
"On one side there are about 20,000 Roman legions, and on the other side there are only dozens of people. It seems that... Nero is fighting alone?"
Lu Chen looked down and saw a girl in a red and white dress who looked very much like Dai Mao Wang. She was holding a long sword and charging left and right in the army. She was as dazzling as a phoenix among a flock of chickens.
"Hey, isn't this the Roman Emperor? He looks so strange..."
On the outskirts of Rome, a blonde girl in a gorgeous red dress led her guards in a fierce battle with the enemy, clutching a huge crimson sword engraved with the Latin words "Heaven and Hell".
"Hey, hey, what's going on with you guys?! Why did you suddenly appear in my territory?!"
Although as a Heroic Spirit, her combat power far exceeds that of an ordinary person, she is not a Servant in the strict sense of the word in this world, so she cannot use her Noble Phantasms against the enemy. Facing enemies that are hundreds or even thousands of times more powerful, even she gradually finds it difficult.
"I am the fifth emperor of the Roman Empire, Nero Claudius. Why don't you leave immediately!"
Just as she was roaring, there was a sudden buzzing sound in the sky. Looking up, she saw a huge starship passing by at low altitude, and the hot engine jet left a trail in the air.
The six-hundred-meter-long ship hovered steadily in the air, blocking out the sunlight.
"What kind of monster is this?!" On the battlefield, the soldiers stopped their attacks and looked up at this strange behemoth.
The weapons in their hands were mostly bronze spears, short swords, as well as some more primitive equipment such as javelins, slings and single bows.
"Commander, you are 'bullying' the natives again." Kewei couldn't help but smile when he saw such a primitive battle scene below.
"This is what happens when players who have completed the game return to the novice dungeon." Lu Chen curled his lips.
"Yixian, let them see our strength, and bring Nero up by the way."
Accompanied by roars, the secondary guns on both sides of the starship fired continuously. For the army in the cold weapon era, such firepower suppression was like a thunderbolt.
Just a few missiles and laser cannons fired at the same time, and the Roman legions below were easily routed. In just a few minutes, even the ground within a radius of several kilometers was plowed by artillery fire, and was covered with potholes and craters.
Then, the Yixian ship slowly landed in front of Nero.
Lu Chen stood on the bridge with a determined look.
"Comrades, let us join hands to save Rome, or in other words, save the world."
