Abbas walked around Chu Zihang and skillfully tapped a light screen with flashing data in the void. He began to check the stability of Chaldeas's device. This smooth and flowing movement made the latter stunned for a moment. "Abbas, are you familiar with the celestial sphere device?"
"Of course, I'm considered a veteran in Group A and have helped the Spirit Particle Transfer Working Group quite a bit. Haha, but unfortunately, I'm not considered a senior researcher. The most I can do is help with routine inspections and errands."
As Abbas spoke, a wisp of mustache curled slightly with a smile. "Even so, as the saying goes, first time is new, second time is familiar. I've done similar work about ten times, and all the steps are already familiar to me."
"…Is there anything wrong with the celestial sphere?"
"Don't worry, everything is fine, Chaldeas."
"That's good." Chu Zihang was not good at polite greetings, so after chatting for a few words, he immediately turned around and left.
"..."
After Chu Zihang's figure disappeared at the door, Abbas withdrew his gaze and stared straight at Chaldeas, where parts of the area were charred.
Suddenly, his eyes turned the color of lava.
----
"Stop it, brother! There are only members of the inspection team outside."
"Even if you have some backup plans, you can't escape! It's better to just honestly tell us the rest of the information."
In the deep courtroom of Chaldea, Xia Mi and Helver were interrogating Pompey - or rather, the Odin who resided in his body.
Tightly bound by alchemical chains and restraints, Pompey struggled mightily, his body thrashing like a dying man. His eyes gleamed with a golden light as pure as the sun, a hallmark of the First Generation. But now, as noble as he was, he was unworthy of being a prisoner.
Pompey spat out a mouthful of blood foam, without any trace of the high-spirited and elegant demeanor he had when he was the director. With a dark face, he looked at Xia Mi, who was dressed up like a human but was extremely arrogant. It was really like a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog—
"Come on, I've already fallen into this state, why am I still pretending to call you brother? Jörmungandr, you, on the other hand, are you having a wonderful time being a dog for that human? Or are you completely besotted with that person and willing to work like a slave for him?"
As if finally realizing that he was doomed, Pompeii - no, Odin actually laughed out loud in despair, and made ruthless sarcasm and harsh remarks.
"Odin! Shame on you!"
Xia Mi's voice suddenly turned cold, and she kicked him and the shackles on his body with great force, and slammed him into the floor with a loud bang, like driving a pile, and Odin was deeply embedded in the ground alive!
Naturally, Odin vomited blood again after suffering this blow, and there were frequent crisp sounds coming from his bones. It was obvious that countless bones and joints in his body were damaged, and he was even almost unconscious.
However, Xia Mi was surprised. Wasn't the body chosen by Odin too weak?
Even if the chosen partner is a mixed-race with poor bloodline, under the care of the Dragon King, he or she should automatically gain extremely powerful evolution, and his or her physique and vitality will far exceed that of ordinary people.
But the actual result was that she had controlled the strength of the kick, but Odin was kicked and seriously injured like an ordinary person!
"?" Xia Mi thought to herself, "I haven't finished interrogating him yet. This guy is at least a first-generation species. He can't just die like this after just a few years. Can he be killed by a few punches and a kick? Maybe he hasn't recovered yet because of the frequent container changes?"
She asked Helver to move the stone fragments and broken alchemical chains away, and then she kicked Odin, who was embedded in the ground. The latter flew away like a kite with a lost string, leaving a clear line of blood in the air.
"Master Xia Mi..." Helweier was stunned. Is this really an interrogation? It's really just a beating and a conversation!
Seeing this man flying out, I'm afraid his spine is broken into several pieces, right?
Helver didn't know Odin very well. She had only served under him for a short period of time and had no clear understanding of how capable the Dragon King was.
However, Xia Mi was different. She knew that people could not be generalized, let alone the Dragon King?
In the past, whenever she taught her brother Fenrir a lesson for being foolish, forgetful, or doing something bad with good intentions, she often resorted to beatings and kicking... Although Fenrir, this silly boy, only remembered food but not beatings, and was strong and healthy, he was fine even after being beaten, and his injuries healed quickly.
As for Odin, he is also a master of the art of hiding.
He'd been defeated by Emiya and his men more than once or twice... How could he be caught so easily, without any escape route? Even someone as foolish as Fenrir wouldn't believe it!
So Xia Mi did this on purpose, trying to force this guy to reveal his hiding method!
“…Something seems a little off.”
Helweier beside him whispered as she looked around.
"Nonsense, Odin has always been wrong. When has he ever been right—" Xia Mi shrugged, and suddenly his expression changed, "Ah ah? That is!?"
Odin's subsequent measures were decisively revealed, and a strange scene appeared in mid-air - Pompeii's body, which was almost riddled with holes and seriously injured, seemed to have been reversed in time, with flesh and blood reorganized and bones restored.
The magical sight of time reversal made Xia Mi and others stunned for a moment, and Odin took the opportunity to easily break free from the broken alchemical chain and gently brushed off the dust on his intact clothes.
The reversal of time caused the surging power of the first generation to refill the new body. He turned around, broke through the door and ran away!
Hahaha, this is my escape route!
My foolish sister, Jörmungandr, how do you think Chaldea uses the principle of "spirit transfer" to the past? The most crucial foundation is, of course, the "time reversal" of the Seven Kingdoms of Alchemy! How could the dignified Dragon King, who is also the head of the spirit transfer project, not be familiar with this?
I, Odin, have never been weaker than anyone in my life. Even if I am bound by alchemical tools and beaten by my own sister, I can still escape!
"No, he's going to run away!"
Helweier was in a hurry, but she saw Xia Mi was calm and composed. The latter shook her head leisurely, "No hurry, he can't run away."
"what?"
Xia Mi took out her phone, and the screen displayed a message from Emiya, "There's only one passage between the deep interrogation room and Chaldea above. If he runs out, he'll only run into Emiya rushing over."
----
A few minutes ago, Emiya met Chu Zihang coming from the control room in the corridor.
"Have you finished today's training? Have you checked on Lu Mingfei? Is he okay?"
Following Su Enxi's suggestion, Emiya arranged a job for the young man from the Lu family in the medical department, but was he truly reliable? Emiya had a big question mark in his mind. Therefore, after giving Lu Mingfei a chance based on Su Enxi's recommendation, he sent Chu Zihang to investigate the situation the next day.
"Not bad," Chu Zihang answered briefly, "He looks like he has some work experience, not like a novice." He glanced forward in the direction of Emiya. This seemed to be a place in Chaldea where few people passed by.
"That's it."
Emiya relaxed a little and immediately skipped the topic, "That passage over there leads to the deep interrogation room. Pompey's verdict will be announced tomorrow."
"Is the interrogation room very secluded?" Chu Zihang thought of the voice he had just heard from Chaldeas in the control room. "Something happened just now that needs to be explained."
"Okay, then you come down with me."
Wei Gong took Chu Zihang to the elevator room which required permission to start.
Unexpectedly, the elevator started to operate on its own. The two glanced to the side and found that the number of floors on the electronic screen was changing, and someone was taking the elevator up!
"Back off!"
Emiya realized something was wrong and said to Chu Zihang, "Because Xia Mike hadn't reported him so far, the interrogation was complete."
Ding!
The metal doors slid open, revealing a gleaming Odin, mounted on an eight-legged steed. He temporarily melted the alchemical tools binding him, donning them as sturdy armor. The long, curved weapon formed a sharp spear in his hand.
Emiya: “?” Coming to send you off again?
Odin: “?” Blocking me at the elevator entrance again?
At this moment, just like that moment, Odin vaguely remembered that several years ago, when he raided the Genji Building, he was blocked by Emiya at the elevator door by accident.
Odin looked at the fluctuations of divine power gradually expanding from Emiya's body, and saw that a human named Chu Zihang beside him also decisively drew his sword. Thinking of his sister who was chasing him closely, he couldn't help but suspect that all this was a deliberate trap to lure him to escape!
He was set up, Emiya, you win!
Chapter 310 Burning Polluted City Tokyo
“—Odin!!”
The golden pupils in Chu Zihang's eyes shone brightly, and he looked extremely jealous in front of his enemy.
Because he knew that the person imprisoned in the deep interrogation room was supposed to be Pompeii, but now it was Odin who rushed out. Needless to say, Emiya's information was 100% correct. The other party was the culprit behind the YAMAL incident, which led to the death of his father Chu Tianjiao!
The blade was unsheathed, emitting a bright flame.
The flowing flames instantly shot into the air, sweeping up a rolling heat wave!
However, Odin didn't even look at him, and let the heat flow carrying the flames come.
Even if the blazing flames frantically licked his makeshift armor, it was of no use. The next second, the horse beneath him snorted and released lightning. The invisible "king's domain" unique to the first generation was stimulated from Odin's body, and with the thunder and lightning, it repelled the rolling waves of fire.
In contrast, what Odin always kept a close eye on was the divine aura that quietly emerged from Emiya.
hum-
There is no need for exaggerated and gorgeous lights and colors, no need for the pomp of boiling hot air waves, just a simple and silent unfolding of the power of the divine nature, and the invisible pressure will quietly cover down from the sky.
A golden light, brighter and more brilliant than Chu Zihang's, pierced through everything, instantly dimming the spacious corridors of Chaldea. Finally, the golden light slowly condensed into the divine sword "Ame no Murakumo" in Emiya's hand.
At this point, Emiya no longer needs to use the "Susanoo" Daigokujo as a medium to transform into a giant in order to launch a divine attack when using divine power.
By solving the problem of output control, Emiya can limit the output power of his own power and achieve more precise miniaturization, just like the scene before him——
Emiya held the golden holy sword and swung it casually like a newbie in kendo!
——No, how could someone like Emiya, whose swordsmanship had reached the pinnacle, make the same mistakes as an amateur? He did this simply because he could still exert absolute dominance by discarding those unnecessary and cumbersome techniques.
This means that when the sword is drawn, one force can defeat ten skills!
"Do not……!"
The moment Odin raised his spear to resist, he found that he and his surroundings were like ice and snow encountering the scorching sun!
From the moment the spear and sword touched, the divine spirit wrapped around the elements and roared to kill the enemy. The overwhelming force caused everything to topple and twist. The sturdy spear and armor began to collapse completely, torn and shattered under the unreasonable edge of the divine sword. Then the fresh flesh and bones that had just been reborn followed suit, continuously melting and dissipating.
The weapons were destroyed in an instant, followed by the torso, legs, and horse... In such a short moment, no one was spared.
boom!
Chu Zihang watched everything with his eyes wide open. He didn't even see what Shirou was doing before he saw the divine sword that suddenly appeared in his hand was retracted.
He was clearly in the casual and unfocused posture of a novice in the previous moment, but in the next moment he was skillfully performing a high-speed sword-drawing and slashing move like a rare swordsman. The audience could only observe Emiya's relaxed and agile "blood vibration" and sword-sheathing movements after he finished everything.
As the opponent - no, it was not an opponent at all, it could be said that it was the one that was completely crushed. Odin was like weeds crushed by the roadside, with a light blow destroying his weapons, armor, lower body and even his warhorse.
The changes in this scene were so sudden and rapid that Chu Zihang had the illusion that half of Odin's body melted away in the blink of an eye.
"Huh..."
His body thudded to the ground, and at the same time, the severe injuries and the intense pain made Odin almost faint. His blood flowed madly, and his strength vanished with it. He wanted to turn back time, just like when Xia Mi had severely injured him before...
However, the aftermath of the god's destructive attack invaded the wound, preventing the body from healing and recovering, causing Odin's mind to become somewhat distracted and unable to concentrate.
After repeated attempts and failures, Odin finally realized that after using "Time Reversal" under Xia Mi's coercion, the trauma caused by Emiya had exceeded the limits of his alchemy! Temporarily unusable!
Damn Jörmungandr! He lost the chance to fake his death and escape!
Emiya didn't care what Odin was thinking in that short time. He then stretched out his hand and made the elements gather into light. A thick gauntlet made of the power of the god "Susanoo" formed in mid-air.
The huge "hand of the gods" easily grabbed the remaining half of Odin's body, as if it was grabbing a poultry or livestock to be slaughtered.
"Listen carefully, Odin, I don't want to play any more games of wits with you!" Emiya picked up the guy with an expressionless face.
The latter's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he struggled with his arms to grab at the air. It was obviously impossible for an ordinary person to lose his lower body and still be alive and kicking, but the Dragon King could.
"You must have used some tricks to escape the interrogation room without any reason. If you still have some tricks left, you'd better use them now! Otherwise..."
“@#¥%…” Odin was speechless.
Damn it, you're holding me so tightly, let alone making small movements, I can't even utter a word now!
Emiya slowly raised the sharp edge of the sword in his other hand and glanced at Odin. What are you mumbling about here? Go talk to my Murakumo sword!
Chu Zihang hesitated on the side, wondering whether he should persuade the opponent not to get angry and chop him first, at least let the opponent spit out the information about Chu Tianjiao and Chaldeas first.
[Run…Run quickly, run to where the fire hasn’t reached yet…It’s all burning…]
"Ok?"
Wei Gong and Chu Zihang paused at the same time, they heard a strange tiny sound.
Chu Zihang reacted immediately, "It's the voice from Chaldeas!"
Emiya even remembered Fingel's information, "It's a distress signal from humans on the celestial globe!"
This sudden little change made him hesitate. According to Finkel, the time period when Chaldeas leaked biological signals was uncertain. Each time was very short, and once missed, it would be difficult to capture it again.
But the Odin in my hand...
hum!hum!hum!
Soon, Emiya and the others didn't have to worry about this matter anymore, because a slightly dull rumbling sound suddenly came from the other side of the wall, coming from the direction of the control room. It was the sound of the accelerator used for spirit particle transfer being pre-activated!
And it seemed to be started at high power, making the sound like thunder, abnormally loud!
"Is anyone in the control room?"
Wei Gong looked at Chu Zihang. He remembered that Chu Zihang had come from the direction of the control room before.
"Yes, Abbas from Group A!"
