107. Our War Game
End the decisive battle at Singularity F!
The wonderful way of Qingyuan shows its power and its true form is revealed by following the laws of heaven and earth!
The final battle plan was very simple.

Erlang Shen dropped his Mountain-Splitting Axe, splitting Typhon's body, which was literally as huge as a mountain, and Shirou, who had 'transformed' into 'Qitian Mode', rushed into Typhon's body.

Nezha will use the divine fire to continue burning the wound to prevent Typhon's wound from healing automatically.

If Typhon wants to heal his wound, he must concentrate his strength on the wound and fight against Nezha and Erlang Shen.

However, for undead creatures, foreign objects that have entered their bodies are obviously more likely to attract their attention than simple wounds.

As long as Shirou can continue to output damage inside Typhon, Nezha and Erlang Shen can continue to put pressure on Typhon from outside, preventing it from evolving further and ensuring the safety of Shirou's retreat.

After Shirou breaks into Typhon, he only needs to keep attacking without interruption. On the one hand, this can ensure a retreat, and on the other hand, this can buy time for Olga Marie who follow him in - buy time for Olga Marie to find Athena's location!
Finally, all Shirou needs to do is take Athena out the same way she came!

So--

It's time to fight back!
This is the final battle!
[The final battle begins! ]

[Attention! Every time you fail, Typhon will get a chance to "evolve". As the number of times accumulates, the difficulty of evolution will become lower and lower.]

[Once Typhon evolves, it will assimilate with Singularity F, and then drive Singularity F to attack and devour other Singularities - and then continue to evolve! ]

[Phase 1: Erlang Shen uses the 'Mountain-Splitting Axe' to try to create a gap in Typhon's body]

Under the cover of the mythical Tang Dynasty Heavenly Army, Othinus, the bard, was still chanting the spell:

"When mentioning Erlang Shen and the Divine Axe, the legend of 'splitting the mountain to save his mother' naturally comes to mind."

"However, similar 'founding myths' are very common in the East. At its core, this is a legacy of the idea that 'humans can defeat nature with the power of love.'"

"Erlang Shen is undoubtedly a hero"

"And at this moment, Athena, who is imprisoned inside by Typhon, possesses the characteristics of 'Mother of Heroes'!"

"In other words! Conceptually, the legend of 'splitting the mountain to save the mother' can be recreated!"

Conditions met!

The bard sang:

"——The hero is made!"

This is a true combination of two things to fight together!
[Erlang Shen is trying to tear open the wound on Typhon Gaia! ]

[Difficulty: 1000]

[Erlang Shen's 'Mountain-Splitting Axe': 1D1000=842]

[Othinus's 'Hero Creation' correction: 1D1000=934]

[Total: 1776]

Let's turn the tide!
Sound the clarion call for counterattack!
"--open!!!"

Typhon, who was originally a substitute for the planet itself, had an immortal body that was equivalent to the manifestation of the planet's origin. Under this blow, a wound over a kilometer long was torn open!
Nezha took the lead and rushed to the "wound" that was a fusion of blood, flesh and various minerals, which was difficult to describe in words.

Samadhi True Fire·Immortal Circuit·Full Open!

Nezha summoned the magic weapon he used in the legendary Battle of the Gods - the Nine Fire God Shroud!

This treasure was originally the treasure that guarded the mountain of Taiyi Zhenren. He once used this treasure to burn to death Shiji Niangniang, the stone fairy who had practiced for nearly ten thousand years in Jiejiao!

It may not be effective against the void life part of Gaia's origin, but it is different for Typhon, who is used as a proxy by Gaia!

It's more like 'melting' the rocks than burning the wound!
"Hurry up and go in. If you can't hold on inside, I will increase the firepower here to attract your attention!"

【Additional judgment】

[After Shirou and Olga Marie enter Typhon, how many rounds will it take for them to find Athena's location? ]

【1D7=7】

Shirou simply glanced at the narration's recorded content this time.

Because he knew that this thing was useless in actual combat, except for obtaining additional information in normal times, because it only recorded "things that had already happened", Shirou didn't care too much about it.

No matter what the verdict is, there is only one thing Shirou needs to do.
Fight! And win!

"Mary" Shirou picked up Olga Mary, "Son Goku's power is divided into two parts, 'physical' and 'magic'. The transformation technique can show a myriad of magical effects, but 'magic' is not my area of expertise, so you can imagine it, and I will turn your ideas into reality."

Shirou's words were quite difficult to understand.

I'm afraid most people don't understand what this means.

But Olga Marie grew up in a mysterious world after all, and she was a top student who graduated with honors without any bias in any subject! She immediately understood what Shirou meant.

Very simple.

Even if he temporarily transformed into the 'Monkey King Mode' and gained the power of the 'Monkey King', Shirou could not fully utilize the Monkey King's ever-changing abilities.

The heroic god Sun Wukong possesses the ability to transform freely and has the ability to master the 72 transformations of the Earthly Demons. Theoretically, he can change into various postures with means of confrontation according to different opponents and display different magical effects to deal with them with ease.

Almost omnipotent ability.

In fact, in many places, the Monkey King is worshipped not as a character in a novel, but as a being at the level of the creator god.

The biggest problem with omnipotence has never been whether it can be done, but how it can be done.

Fortunately, this wasn't the first time Shirou had encountered a similar situation.

In the past ten years, Shirou had been not good at casting spells, so he had left it to Rin Toosaka - or Shinji, who always partnered with him.

Although Sakura possesses the power of "imaginary numbers" which in a sense can also be omnipotent, she is not good at "casting spells" like Shirou. She is better at aspects like "physical training".

Now, that task falls to Olga Marie!

Looking at Olga Marie who was blushing, Shirou spoke his mind frankly and kindly suggested: "It may happen many times in the future, you'd better get used to it sooner."

"How can I get used to this kind of thing?"

Although her face was red and she complained like this, Olga Marie immediately used the "casting" part of the "Monkey King" power that Shirou had given her.

The omnipotent power of free change.

In other words, how to use it depends on your imagination.

This ability is actually like the Holy Grail.

Imagination is making a wish. As long as you describe it clearly enough, you can rely on the power of the Monkey King (Holy Grail) to 'transform' it into power and then 'output' it!
"The goal is to find Athena."

"According to the information we have, when Athena begins to 'return to the original', her identity as the goddess of snakes will be emphasized. In other words, the most important thing closely related to Athena will become 'snake'."

"The 'snake' that is most closely associated with Athena's original form is undoubtedly the Gorgon."

"The basilisk Gorgon, a monster that was once a goddess gone mad, the earth dragon that Medusa transformed into after devouring her two sisters"

"When she died, from the blood of her head, a monster was born - also the Holy Spirit of the Earth!"

"That is the holy beast with pure white wings, the Pegasus, the Pegasus, the goddess of art, and the goddess of victory, Nike!"

"As the faith in Athena expanded, many powers and goddesses were unified by Athena. Pegasus was thus connected to Athena. Zeus raised it to the sky and it became Pegasus!"

"O Pegasus! To save Athena! Lend me your power!"

Use your imagination!

Olga Marie is a celestial magician, and her specialty is naturally various celestial magic.

Although none of them can compare to Kirshtalia - but leaving that aside, if we ignore Kirshtalia's existence, Olga Marie is a genius who is proficient in all celestial magic!

The Star Priestess, truly worthy of the name!
Borrowing the power of the Star Gods was actually equivalent to the high-level Noble Phantasms of many Heroic Spirits - even as a magic, it was much more advanced than the Noble Phantasms of most Heroic Spirits.

That was a great magic trick that originally required a long period of chanting, a perfect ritual venue, and sufficient financial investment to trial and error - to be realized.

The fundamental problem here is actually very simple: it is too far away. Even if they can borrow power and the Star Spirits and Star Gods are willing to respond, the physical distance across the Milky Way universe will make the difficulty and time infinitely extended! But now!

With the help of the freely changing power of Qi Tian, these "preparations" can be directly compressed and skipped!
Just imagine what it will look like when it's finished!
Use your imagination!

Olga Marie compressed the "chanting", "venue", "funding" and other "ritual processes" through imagination, and then "transformed" them into concrete entities.

Think of the relationship between the Celestial Magician and the Constellation Spirits as a 'gate'.

In modern times, there was a magician named Helena Blavatsky who was wanted by the Magicians' Guild and she once developed a magic trick.

She casually called it the [Anywhere Door] - it was a magic-level spell.

It uses the power of starlight to fold the space distance and form something like a "door". As long as you push the "door" open, you can reach the other side of the folded space.

What do you need to open the door?
Olga Marie thought of the key.

Qi Tian Li skipped the ritual process and directly "transformed" the finished product!

The Star Key appears in Olga Marie's hand!

"Open! The Pegasus Gate!"

The Pegasus with noble wings rushed out of the star gate, and Olga Marie and Shirou boarded the Pegasus one after another!

It is not advisable to bring too many people into this battle, as too many people will be distracted - so only Shirou and Olga Marie are needed, one is responsible for fighting, and the other is responsible for finding people!
In fact, it would be more accurate to say that there are three people. Illya also came with her in Olga Marie's body. Her mission is to protect Olga Marie if an emergency occurs and Shirou is too late (or doesn't notice) that Olga Marie is in danger.

Shirou hugged Olga Marie (and Illya) to his chest, took the reins of Pegasus, turned into a comet, and rushed into the interior of Typhon!

Shortly after entering Typhon, Shirou and Illya discovered a problem and realized that this might be the reason why Gaia was furious and causing chaos.

The interior of Typhon
It was not the 'Mythical Labyrinth' that Olga Marie had originally imagined.

"What's going on?" Olga Marie looked around in confusion.

The three people riding on Pegasus were galloping forward in a passage-like place, and from time to time, strange blocks that looked like "mosaic" passed by them quickly.

Olga Marie didn’t know.

But Shirou and Illya are particularly familiar with each other.

"Shirou, am I seeing this correctly?" Illya couldn't help but ask, "Those blocks are 'data impurities'?"

"You're not mistaken." Shirou replied.

Data impurity.

This was a sign that became increasingly common when Shirou was living in the Celestial World, ever since spirit magic became popular and the computer data world began to erode reality.

When a data life form materializes in reality, it does not simply "change from a data body to a flesh and blood body."

They are still data bodies, but the data representation is attached with biological concepts, which makes them get injured and bleed - the blood that sheds is essentially data.

When data life forms invade reality, the real world itself will be affected by them. The principle is somewhat like an inherent barrier. In the process of friction, integration, and transformation between the real world and the data world, many more of these "impurities" will appear.

Essentially, it's 'redundant junk data'.

There is nothing special about this thing itself, except that it can be recycled and converted into spirit particles and used as "income for scavengers".

But it actually appeared inside Typhon Gaia, which means.
"This thing (Typhon Gaia) is a data life form - a 'Digimon'-like existence." Shirou said in a deep voice.

Illya was puzzled: "But why? Could it be related to the changes we are facing now?"

"I don't know, but aren't the so-called Heroic Servants essentially equivalent to the data of the Heroic Spirits on the Throne of Heroes, becoming Servant-like beings after acquiring flesh and blood? Brother Waver has taught this in class, so maybe there is some similar principle involved."

Shirou said:
“What we are going to do won’t change anyway.”

The Pegasus carried the three people through the numerous obstacles formed by the "redundant data garbage dump" along the way, and finally arrived at the core of Typhon!
The scene before them suddenly became clear. Shirou and the other two had come to an extremely large space. The gravity environment seemed to be different from that of the outside world. The "earth" was everywhere, up and down, front and back, left and right. Shirou and the others rode on Pegasus, floating in the "sky" at the center.

This feeling is somewhat similar to the "spherical space station" that often appears in some science fiction works.

It's just that this place is too big.

Or perhaps it should be said that it is like the scene described in "Journey to the Center of the Earth" by the famous French writer Jules Verne?

However, Shirou and the other two soon lost the mood to observe and sigh.

Because——Typhon appeared.

It was not the monster Typhon, but the Typhon mecha that Athena had seen before and created with great effort.

There is actually something quite counterintuitive here.

In many similar science fiction and fantasy stories, super mechanical weapons made by humans are often regarded as "man-made" and contrasted with the planet's "nature".

But the reality is not so.

After all, the raw materials for making machines come from minerals, and minerals are the bones of the planet.

When a planet has its own intelligence and can "advance technology" on its own, the cause and effect of all this will be reversed.

"We didn't detect Athena's presence from inside the God Machine. She must be hiding somewhere else. Gaia is letting this thing hinder us."

Olga Marie, who had not forgotten her mission and was conscientious in her duties, was stunned when she heard this.

Because the scene before her was beyond her imagination.

Shirou and Illya are on full alert!

The Typhon mecha in front of us is just a machine with god-scale output because there is no Athena inside it. In fact, it should not be able to exert the same true god-level combat power as Athena before.

--but

Like an illusion, or "mitosis", the number of Feng in front of them is actually "growing" exponentially in front of Shirou and Illya!
“Split, split!?” Olga Marie was stunned. “But if it split, why didn’t the energy reaction scale of the single unit decrease?!”

why?
The answer is simple.

Shirou and Illya, two people living in the celestial world where data and reality blend together, are very familiar with each other:

“Because it is not a split”

""Instead - 'copy' and 'paste'!""

Strictly speaking, this is also a kind of spiritual magic (computer magic).

In the most ideal situation, if there is sufficient energy source to provide data flow, coupled with sufficient computing power and storage that will not cause "memory explosion" due to data overload, then combat power can be mass-produced on a large scale in the data space!
But that is just the most ideal situation. There is no such ideal environment in reality. It should be like this.

But the facts were before Shirou.

As an alchemist, Illya suddenly realized: "It's Gaia Consciousness! The digitized Gaia Consciousness provides this most ideal environment! Because she is a planet! She is the void, she is - the world itself!"

Shirou took a deep breath. "Using Brother Weber's words, this is the 'digital crisis'. It was something that only existed in theory in the past, but those researchers believed that it would break out sooner or later as the world becomes more digitalized in the future."

Illya smiled bitterly: "If Sakura was here, she might say something like 'Should we find the Royal Knights to cut down the World Tree?' and then get excited for no reason, right?" (Note: a joke from the old anime "Digimon")
Communication and discussion does not stop over time.

In a blink of an eye, the number of Typhon mass-produced machines has exceeded 100,000!

And it is still continuing to grow in this seemingly boundless space!

Pegasus can only dodge awkwardly in this Star Wars-level firepower!

Should we face this situation while finding Athena's location, and then kill our way through to rescue her?! ?
Is this really possible!?

"--sure!"

war! war! war!
[Seven consecutive confrontations! Start! ]

I got up in the morning, finished various things, played two games of League of Legends, had lunch, and thought I would take a nap before getting up to write - but when I woke up, it was already past nine o'clock?!

Because of this, there are not many chapters today. I am really sorry. QAQ
