It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 204 Choose the future
"There is only one."

Xia Zhi raised his fist to his mouth and coughed lightly.

"Just one?"

The girl sitting on the crescent-shaped chair seemed noncommittal, as if she was not completely convinced by Xia Zhi's words.

"Yes, and this time it's not from Altria's department, so you can rest assured." He nodded and made additional explanations calmly, as if he wanted to dispel the other party's doubts.

"It's not from Altria's department, that's good—did you think I would say that?" Vivian nodded gently, then raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, with a hint of displeasure in her pupils. She looked directly at Xia Zhi: "That's not the point at all, right?"

"Ahem, isn't this the point?"

Xia Zhi took a deep breath and said seriously, "She's just a little girl. She came here just for fun. Just treat her as a tourist on vacation, an ordinary human girl. Nothing else matters."

At least it's nothing now.

This needs to be clarified.

"An ordinary human girl?" Vivian frowned slightly and repeated it softly, with a hint of doubt in her eyes: "Nothing special?"

"She does have some special qualities, but on the surface, she's just an ordinary girl. Her words and actions are all like that, and even she believes so." The young man spoke slowly, as if weighing every word and tone. "But she has the ability to unconsciously change the world and make her wishes come true."

"May all your wishes come true?"

"Yes, she can realize her wishes unconsciously. Although it seems that not all of her ideas can be realized due to her way of thinking as an ordinary person, but for now, at least I can't guess where her limit is."

Xia Zhi said this truthfully—

This shows that the potential of Haruhi's wish-granting machine is breathtaking and unfathomable.

At least even though he had just been promoted, he had not yet reached the threshold of speculation and testing. After all, she was the goddess who all the information life forms in the galaxy had to take seriously.

As of now, it is feasible to use Miss Suzumiya's power, but it is based on her own unconscious permission... This is why Xia Zhi finally decided to be safer and only use this opportunity to complete the "Heavenly Dao Foundation" instead of seizing greater power and benefits. Being too greedy and trying to swallow an elephant with a snake will probably not end well, he warned himself.

"This...may be a little too dangerous."

Vivian said calmly.

"Overall, there shouldn't be any problem. She has a willful personality, but she's kind enough and has her own ideas and judgments."

The young man said seriously: "But I plan to take her on a tour of Britain first, so that she can truly understand the underlying logic of this world. This should be able to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble."

"..."

"..."

"As long as you are sure..."

The girl sat on a crescent-shaped chair, her creamy hands folded on the table in front of her. She listened seriously and attentively, then nodded slightly.

Then, she was silent for a moment, and with a hint of barely perceptible concern in her voice, she asked again:
"In this matter..."

"Is there anything I can help you with? Do you want to change the current policy or something?"

While saying this, Vivian slightly turned her head, looked at the scenery outside the window, raised her hand and gently stroked the long golden hair hanging by her ear, as if she was just asking casually, but also seemed to have a hint of expectation.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone onto her through the window lattice, as if covering her with a golden halo.

There is a kind of pure beauty that adds a touch of color to the world.

Xia Zhi slowly retracted his gaze, then shook his head gently, his eyes firm and deep: "This is unnecessary. If we deliberately do something in this regard, it will easily become another form of "deception". Once the so-called reversal occurs later, it will easily bring greater trouble. So regarding policies and orders, we only need to maintain the status quo and let the truth slowly emerge over time-"

But of course he wasn't that slow.

So naturally he didn't stop there, but naturally changed the subject and continued speaking.

"Of course, in addition to running the kingdom, I do need your help in other areas, Vivian, so...would you like to take this opportunity to travel around Britain with me again?"

He extended his hand and invited me with a smile, which was like a spring breeze, warming my heart.

"Let's just consider this our first incognito visit since the founding of the Fairy Kingdom... How is it, my Lord?"

"..."

"..."

Vivian, who thought her proposal had been rejected, could not help but be stunned for a moment. She turned her head and saw the other person's figure reflected in her pupils. He stretched out his hand to her, and his palm seemed to carry the tenderness and adventure of the whole world.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the half-open windows, casting ambiguous outlines on the ground in a poetic and picturesque manner.

The corners of the girl's mouth curved slightly, and she gently held the hand that Xia Zhi extended.

"Well, I'd love to."

At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped, leaving only the subtle atmosphere between the two of them.

However, this did not last long and was broken.

"Master—"

"Irisviel said they were ready, why can't you find anyone again—"

A voice full of obvious resentment came.

An equally graceful blonde girl pushed open the two heavy doors of the library, which seemed to be designed for giants. She then poked her head out of the door, revealing a delicate face that was no different from Vivian's, and looked into the library.

Then, she saw a girl who seemed to be a mirror image of herself, holding hands with a young man and looking at each other.

Altria's expression suddenly froze. No matter how many times she did it, she couldn't calmly accept such a scene.

certainly--

What followed was a heavy resentment, which made her face darken and gloomy: "Morgan, shouldn't you be handling government affairs? Why are you here again?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't you handling this?" Vivian glanced at her and spoke calmly.

"you……"

"Okay, okay, it's been a few years, you should have some tacit understanding, why do you still have to sneer at each other every time you meet." Xia Zhi coughed and decisively chose to intervene to prevent the two sisters from starting their daily routine again.

"Who wants to have a tacit understanding with her..."

Altria grumbled angrily, she felt like a big injustice, inexplicably trapped in this mess. Morgan was obviously in control of Britain, but she herself took on the most government affairs, handling various affairs for Morgan day after day.

As the royal city of Londinion grew stronger and stronger, this magical city developed into a huge metropolis with a population of over ten million in just a few years. After all, in this Lostbelt, both fairies and humans can reproduce asexually and undergo mitosis, so population growth has never been a problem. Only the administrative capacity required to manage a large population has become higher and higher, and the government work has become more and more onerous.

What's more troublesome is that the fairy kingdom is not just the royal city of Londinion. Since the great disaster, many destroyed fairy settlements have prospered again, forming secondary towns and villages.

Basically, it can be said that the entire Fairy Kingdom has once again become prosperous, and the scene of thriving vitality and flourishing of all things is still before our eyes.

Therefore, it is a test of Artoria's ability.

Although, as the legendary King Arthur, the perfect king of knights and the ideal king, she certainly could not be defeated by the pressure of the new fairy regime. Although her "leadership" at level B cannot establish a world-class empire, it is more than enough to rule a country on an island.

However, what really made her unhappy was that she was working hard for Morgan.

But it was difficult for her to make up her mind to just give up and let Morgan govern Britain personally. After all, who knew what Morgan would do? This "mad woman" who had preconceived notions in Altria's mind always made her feel uneasy.

"By the way, what did you do to Irisviel?"

Vivian ignored Altria's muttering. The blonde loser was not worth mentioning at all.

She was just a little curious about what Xia Zhi wanted the woman to do.

"I didn't do anything. I just gave her a daughter—" Xia Zhi responded lightly, then thought for a moment and added, "What I mean is, I returned her daughter to her."

At this point, he shook his head: "Originally, I just told her that there was something I wanted her to do, and asked her to be ready... But she was ready so quickly. I thought she would at least stay with Illya for the next two days to make up for her longing and debt to her daughter."

"Is that so... That's not surprising. That woman has always been a bit of a dependent, cautious person. Her daughter is her only weakness."

Vivian thought for a moment and said meaningfully, "Now that my daughter has returned, her weaknesses have become more obvious. Both mother and daughter are helpless in this world and rely on you to survive. Of course, she wants to show her own value..." "Hehe, don't look at me like that. I don't have so many calculations. It's purely Irisviel's own imagination."

Xia Zhi coughed lightly, somewhat helplessly: "The main reason is that she is now the administrator of the Holy Grail system. I am preparing to launch a large-scale summoning of the Heroic Spirit Army, so I need her to make relevant preparations. The relationship between us is just a pure employment cooperation."

"Maybe……"

Vivian didn't comment, but didn't seem to care too much.

"But you want to initiate a large-scale summoning of the Heroic Legion? What's your reason?"

Xia Zhi blinked his eyes and said, "Of course, it's to prepare for the next battle. The more prepared we are, the more chances we have of winning. Of course, the more stable the better."

Vivian frowned slightly: "The battle after that? With whom?"

"Let me see... Hmm, ORT, that should be the name." The young man thought for a moment, then glanced at the timeline that unfolded on countless planes in an instant, and couldn't help but shake his head again. "It's the Ultimate One that descended from the distant Oort Cloud and landed on Earth. It's the so-called invading life form."

"ORT?"

Vivian was stunned for a moment: "Is it the strongest and most incomprehensible life form that can be confirmed in that magic world?!"

"Yeah, that's a pretty accurate assessment. After all, it's a complete monster... Tsk tsk, with one full-strength blow, the Earth would be shattered into pieces."

Xia Zhi nodded, confirming with approval, "No matter how you look at it, it's undoubtedly a terrifying enemy capable of dealing a fatal blow to a celestial body. If it weren't a true planetary life form, facing it head-on would be a nightmare."

With the continuous improvement of his own energy density and mass field, coupled with the ability to manipulate gravity, he roughly estimated that at this stage, he should be able to make his body in the material world achieve the same achievements as a planetary combat body. However, in front of the opponent he is to face next, this is nothing to brag about. It is just that he has met the most basic requirements for head-on confrontation.

——It's like in a Souls game, when your HP reaches 40 points...

——It’s just two more hits, or just one more.

“Is this… okay?”

Vivian was a little surprised. Why did she suddenly provoke such a dangerous enemy?

"No problem. After all, there will be a battle sooner or later. Instead of waiting passively, it is better to take the initiative." Xia Zhi clenched his fist lightly, his tone very calm.

Breaking away from the linear flow of time and having a more advanced "teleological" way of thinking does not mean being troubled by choice and fate. Just as Yuki Nagato advised, teleology does not mean losing the right to choose, but optimizing the right to choose.

Of course he could just accept it passively.

But if you feel it is necessary, you can take the initiative to choose your future.

------

------

The scale of the royal city is already very complete and huge.

Therefore, it is undoubtedly very simple to find a suitable summoning place.

In a sealed-off secret testing ground, Xia Zhi paced back and forth, lost in thought, and soon came up with a plan. He looked up at the observation window on the far wall and snapped his fingers in that direction.

"Well--"

In the isolation cabin behind the observation window, Alice was stunned for a moment, her eyes seemed a little dazed.

Then, she calmed herself down, shook her head gently, sorted out the information that seemed to emerge out of thin air in her mind, then took a step forward, stretched out her slender white hand, and pressed it on the palm print display on the operating table.

This facility, designed specifically for the Holy Grail System, was instantly activated.

By connecting to Irisviel's functions, the summoning circle in the field began to release violent flashes of light...

Various instruments made slight sounds.

The indicator light also keeps flashing.

The detected magic power directly exceeded the threshold, triggering a warning.

However, this is not a single draw, nor even a ten-draw, but a super-large legion summon with a specified number of more than three digits, including various chain summons, so it is also normal.

After the violent magic whirlwind and energy flash dissipated, the huge testing ground was no longer empty, but was filled with a dark mass of people, as if thousands of people had appeared in the blink of an eye.

The soldiers lined up...

The sharpness of the armor...

Among the surging army, there are also many proud figures standing alone...

The only thing they had in common was that after they confirmed that the people around them were not enemies, they all became somewhat suspicious and began to discuss heatedly, looking around in surprise and quickly exchanging views and information with each other.

"Is this Chaldea?"

"Where is the Master? That little girl..."

"This scene is truly magnificent. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it makes me, the lord of the Overlord Army, can't help but get excited..."

Xia Zhi calmly scanned the chaotic yet orderly scene before him. He was not surprised by this. The first batch of summons he had selected were all famous heroic legions recorded in history, including the 300 Spartan warriors, the Macedonian Legion of the Conqueror King Iskandar, and so on.

——They are all normal mortal heroes who can be recognized in normal history. At most, they have some divinity.

——No true servant of the gods appeared.

After all, he had to do an experiment, so naturally he needed to record the data bit by bit, from easy to difficult.

The young man gently raised his palms and clapped them a few times. The sound was not loud but was clearly heard by all the servants: "Be quiet, everyone, listen to me. I have had you summoned... Due to technological improvements, we may not have the one-on-one contractual relationship we used to have, but there is no doubt..."

"Wait! Is this Chaldea?"

Among the soldiers in the line, someone asked a question loudly, as if he had been the first to realize something.

"This is not Chaldea. I just took advantage of the connection between you and the Master you know and summoned you." Xia Zhi spoke very frankly, with no intention of hiding anything. "So you probably inherited some of your previous memories, which is normal. But unfortunately, I am not on Chaldea's side, but Chaldea's enemy..."

"..."

"..."

A brief moment of silence.

Within a few seconds, the entire testing ground was in an uproar.

——"Then we are enemies!"

——"Humph! Do you think we'll work for you? Forget it!"

——"You are the enemy of human reason?! Then I will defeat you right here!"

These summoned heroes made decisive choices and used the shields and swords in their hands to defend the loyalty in their hearts!
Faced with such a scene, Xia Zhi tilted his head, but was not surprised at all.

He simply activated the power of charm that made everyone love him and forced others to like him, and increased the intensity to the maximum.

It was as if invisible ripples spread out, sweeping across the entire scene in the blink of an eye, and then brought about a sudden silence. The legions of heroes who had been roaring and screaming loudly just now all stood there in a daze.

"..."

"..."

And then the next moment.

Their expressions quickly turned fanatical. There was no resistance, or rather, no one was able to resist.

——"Yeah! Your Excellency, we love and respect you!!"

——"We are now the subordinates of the Lord Wangfu, how do you feel, Ritsuka!!"

——"Master Wang has insulted human reason, and human reason dares not say a word! Master Wang is invincible in the world!!"

In an instant, the silence was torn again!
Deafening cheers rang out, like a landslide and tsunami, mixed with heavy waves of sound, and thousands of servants roared fanatically from the bottom of their hearts, almost blowing the roof of the testing ground off!
Xia Zhi raised his eyebrows. This effect couldn’t be said to be too good...it could only be said to be strong and powerful.
