They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 339 Is the robin the one with the most power in Pinocchio?
Danlei, Huangquan, and the Starry Sky Train crew were clearly among the first to break free from Asuna's Noble Phantasm.

This Noble Phantasm has a high correlation with the user's time limit and the target's mental strength and experience.

Without the ability to fine-tune and manipulate the illusion, the higher the level of either, the faster one awakens. However, if fine-tuning is possible, having more experience will become a negative effect.

Therefore, the battle outside is also paused at this time, and the five people, including Firefly, Grammer Knight, Artoria, Sand Gold, and Archer, are still trapped in the illusion.

Both sides' Noble Phantasms that summoned other Heroic Spirits were interrupted, and the Grammer Iron Cavalry and the Knights of the Round Table all disappeared.

If even the Heroic Spirits are like this, then the Memoirs of the Memory Realm are even worse off.

Of course, Chadwick's mechanical creations are also unaffected.

They operate through programs. Although their bodies are made of memory matter, they do not possess consciousness, so Asuna's Noble Phantasm is ineffective against them.

However, it will take them some time to reach Altria, so they are safe for now.

Danlei sensed Artoria's group and found a bunch of them lying on the ground, so he decided to leave them for the time being. (The mechanical troops were still some distance away at this point.)

Since both Danlei and Huangquan were attacked, they could naturally discern roughly which direction the Noble Phantasm user was coming from.

With the help of the Omniscient Domain, Danlei and Huangquan quickly found their way to the room where Robin and Asna were being held.

Upon entering the room, Danlei saw the robin trapped in a cage. He decisively wielded the Zhuxian Sword, cleaving the cage in two with a single strike, and then said with a strange expression...
"So, the Noble Phantasm that just caused the entire audience to fall into an illusion was released by Caster?"
What an exaggerated Noble Phantasm! Even I, the wielder, was affected and fell into an illusion.

"If I had had an enemy nearby who wasn't affected, even I would be finished now."

When Robin saw that Danlei immediately asked about the Noble Phantasm, she quickly tried to defend her own Heroic Spirit. If Danlei thought Asuna was too much of a threat and killed her with a single sword strike, Robin would have nowhere to turn to cry.

Asuna's Noble Phantasm also requires some time to activate. Although it is not slow and she has the ability to bind enemies, comparing her attack speed with the Hunting Order Envoy (except for Kagemoto) is simply suicidal.

It's worth noting that Dan Lei is a swordsman, a weapon known for its agility and speed.

So, the robin naturally stepped in front of Asna, took Danlei's hand, and, with an excited expression, said...

"Danlei, thank you. I knew you would come to save me."

Dr. Chadwick and his spirits are both in this fortress. Now, more than 30 hours have passed in the 72-hour period, and the Star Peace Corporation's fleet is not far from Pinocone.

If the threat of the imaginary collapse pulse to Pinocene cannot be ended before the Interstellar Peace Corporation fleet arrives, Pinocene is finished!

The robin is now very close to Danlei, and Danlei can smell her fragrance.

But Danlei is certain that most of her current excitement is an act.

I guess she's acting as the male lead in some kind of advertisement.

Although she was close, the only part of her body that came into contact with Danlei was her hand, and she only thanked him once, then spent the rest of her time talking about Chadwick's problems, clearly trying to divert her attention.

However, Danlei was too lazy to expose the robin, and simply said
"Caster's Noble Phantasm just now affected a lot of people, all of whom came to help Pinocchio stop Dr. Chadwick."

Many of them relived the tragedy of the past in the illusion.

Therefore, after the incident is over, you should take her to apologize sincerely to everyone individually.

No need for me to say anything, because in my dream, I experienced the life of someone who slowly climbs from an ordinary person to a high position, which was somewhat rewarding.

Seeing that Danlei only wanted her to apologize to Asuna for being accidentally injured by the Noble Phantasm, the robin naturally released Danlei's hand with a serious expression and then made a promise.
"No problem, I will personally bring gifts to apologize to the people who were mistakenly injured this time."

Seeing this, Dan Lei pointed to Huang Quan beside him and laughed.
"By the way, when you apologize to this lady, bring some high-quality peaches; she loves them."

She was the helper I found, but before she could even make a move, she got messed up by her own people.

Upon seeing this, the robin immediately smiled sweetly and pulled Asna to apologize to Huang Quan verbally.

Huang Quan saw that Robin and Asna had apologized to him, so he naturally nodded to accept it.

There's nothing we can do; it was all a misunderstanding. They didn't know how many people had entered the fortress; they just wanted to control Chadwick.

However, just as the robin and Asna were apologizing to Huang Quan, Asna suddenly said...
"Oh no, I just sensed that another person in the fortress has broken free from my Noble Phantasm."

Originally, only four people in the fortress were affected by the Noble Phantasm, but now it's definitely Dr. Chadwick who has broken free; it's just unclear whether he's a Servant or a Master.

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei immediately asked with a serious expression.

"Caster, can you pinpoint the location of the last person affected by your Noble Phantasm? Give me a direction, and if you can provide some distance, that would be even better."

"Oh, and quickly dispel the illusion cast on those outside the fortress; they were all accidentally injured by you."

Heroic Spirits are certainly aware of the effects of their Noble Phantasms on their units, so Asuna instantly dispelled the illusions of those outside the fortress affected by the Noble Phantasms.

Then he raised his hand and pointed to the top behind him, and said...

"In that direction, about 300 to 350 meters away."

Upon hearing this, Dan Lei instantly thrust the Immortal Execution Sword in the direction Asina pointed.

The structure of this fortress was simply no match for the Immortal Execution Sword, a creation comparable to the mighty spirit of the Immortal Boat General.

If it weren't for the fear that the fortress might harbor something that could shatter Pinocchio's dream with a single touch, the easiest way to attack this fortress, as Sand Gold suggested, would be for the two Commanders to launch a direct assault.

Both Danlei and Huangquan have the ability to completely destroy this fortress with a single blow.

Of course, Danlei didn't want to destroy the fortress in one blow, mainly because he was afraid that the Heroic Spirit Chadwick would discover that he was being targeted by the envoy and would just unleash his Noble Phantasm to bombard them.

Even if Danlei is fine, Pinocchio, at best, will have to rebuild the dream world, and the Harmony Ceremony will be out of the question. The very foundation of order will be directly shattered.

Don't forget, the Order was devoured by Harmony not when Harmony ascended to become a Star God, but when it was weakened.

The weakening of the order's destiny is caused by the destruction of the cosmic order by the procreation star god [Taizyuros] and the gluttonous star god [Oboros] during the global locust plague.

Therefore, once the foundation of Pinocene's order is destroyed, summoning the embryo of order is a delusion, and the order power overflowing the galaxy will instantly turn into the power of harmony.

However, the two are now more than 300 meters apart in a straight line. What is Dan Lei afraid of? At such a distance, the Heroic Spirit Chadwick can still unleash his Noble Phantasm on Pinocchio. Dan Lei might as well ask Huang Quan for a hair to hang himself from a pleasing roof beam.

As the Zhuxian Sword shattered the fortress's structure, Dan Lei and Huang Quan instantly followed.

He arrived in front of the Heroic Spirit Chadwick in an instant.

At this moment, for the heroic spirit Chadwick, upon waking up, he saw his elderly self lying unconscious on the ground. He thought about how to wake him up, but before he could even raise his hand, a "Zzzzt" sounded, and a purple longsword was instantly placed against his neck. The next second, a man and a woman appeared in front of him.

Dan Lei looked at the heroic spirit Chadwick, whose neck was held by the Immortal Execution Sword, and immediately laughed.
“Dr. Chadwick, your revenge is over. You’ve been checkmated.”

Even with a sword to his neck, the heroic spirit Chadwick remained calm.

He looked at Danlei coldly and said, "Hunter of the Hunt, why are you stopping my revenge?"

My actions were perfectly in line with the ways of the hunter.

Dan Lei had already prepared a plan for Chadwick's question, so he calmly replied...
“Revenge is not slaughter; your revenge has implicated too many innocent people.”

Pierpont's merchants and Pinocchio's tourists did not persecute you.

But your revenge has already dragged them all into it.

The heroic spirit Chadwick was clearly still unconvinced and retorted.

“I have given them three days to evacuate.”

When the spirit Chadwick mentioned the three-day evacuation period, Dan Lei almost laughed, and then bluntly said...

"Dr. Chadwick, don't be naive. Do you know how many people live on the planets Pierpoint and Pinocone?"

Three days to evacuate? You might not be able to evacuate even in three months. Where would you find so many spaceships in the surrounding area?

Even if we use cargo ships to transport people, where can we relocate them after they're evacuated?
Furthermore, as we both know, the imaginary number collapse pulse cannot actually destroy Pierpont; the only ones that will suffer are the large spaceports surrounding Pierpont.

That place is precisely where business travelers and junior employees gather.

So none of your revenge against the Star Peace Corporation, the senior employees and directors who persecuted you, will die. They either left long ago or are hiding in the safest place in Pierpoint.

Only relatively low-level employees and various business travelers died.

As for Pinocchio, it may be completely destroyed as you expect, but those tourists who can't escape will also perish. What did these people do to offend you?

Even revenge during a hunt has its limits; revenge that harms a large number of innocent people is considered evil.

Dan Lei's words were righteous and indignant, but the heroic spirit Chadwick only coldly replied...

"The revenge of the hunters does not harm the innocent? Sir, how did you become the hunter's envoy? Is it because you dared to face the Abundant [Pharmacist] and say no to him?"
As someone from Xianzhou, you should know this better than I, an outsider.

Throughout history, the Celestial Ship people have summoned the Light Arrows of the Hunting Stars for help several times. Your Hunting Star Gods are not at all careless about accidentally injuring anyone when they are destroying the bountiful monsters.

The Great Lord of Extinction, Huanlong, has revealed a lot of dirty secrets about the hunting expedition.

Although the Immortal Boat Alliance vehemently refuted the claims and even joined forces with Interstellar Peace Company to delete the posts, many of the comments were preserved.

"You, Dragon Lord, know perfectly well how many Immortal Ship people were killed by the Hunting Star Gods, so don't spout nonsense like the Hunting Revenge shouldn't cause widespread collateral damage."

Chadwick's words are true, but Dan Lei must deny them and absolutely cannot acquiesce; this is a matter of principle.

Dan Lei said sternly
"Dr. Chadwick, I will only answer you once: those who died in the battle against the Abundant People by the Immortal Boat Alliance were all heroes."

If you continue to slander the Emperor Bow Master and insult the heroes of the Immortal Ship, I will have no choice but to shut you up forever. The hunting expedition you desire will have to wait until you are reincarnated in your next life.

The heroic spirit Chadwick knew very well that Dan Lei was serious. If this topic continued, he would be instantly killed. Since it involved his fate, the other party would definitely not show any mercy.

Therefore, the heroic spirit Chadwick stopped provoking Danlei and instead changed the subject.
"You say my revenge will affect the lives of innocent people, so before I make a move, you'd better come up with a plan."

"You're the hunting envoy, you can't be without a plan, can you?"

When the spirit Chadwick asked for a revenge plan, Dan Lei actually laughed, saying that this had nothing to do with him and why he should help him come up with a plan.
However, the robin who had come up the passage using Asuna's Golden Thread skill heard this and immediately replied...

"Dr. Chadwick, I've always felt there's a better solution to what's going on with you."

Pinocene is willing to issue a public apology for what happened to you, and those involved in your persecution will be punished.

Even Dan Lei wouldn't believe Chadwick's claim about the robin, let alone Dan Lei's.

Sure enough, the Heroic Spirit Chadwick gave him a look that said, "Are you kidding me?"

"Little girl, you're too naive."

It's one thing for Pinocchio to issue a public apology, but now that the matter has been exposed, if an apology could settle things, then the top executives of the five major groups might as well disregard this worthless sense of shame.

But what about being punished? My affairs inevitably involve the Oak, Clover, and Hound families.

Are you planning to punish your brother? Or do you have the ability to punish the heads of the Clover and Hound families?

Regarding this question, the robin said very seriously...

"Although it wasn't my brother's consent to imprisoning you, he certainly didn't improve your situation after becoming the head of the family."

Therefore, I believe he bears responsibility and should be punished.

Although I do not hold an official position in Pinocchio, I am in the V degree of the family's regressive scale.

I have the right and obligation to lead the lower-level notes of the family.

The robin's words left no room for rebuttal among those present.

Little is known about the division of rights in the harmonic family of reverting to the scale.

So whether higher-order pitches can command lower-order pitches is really unknown to most people.

It's not surprising that the robin is a V-grade chordist, since the tuner who summons the harmonic messenger must be at least a IV-grade chordist.

He can summon the choir on Sundays, so he is at least in that pitch.

In the game, Gopher said that the Robin is more suitable for summoning the messenger than Sunday, so it makes perfect sense that the Robin is one level higher than Sunday.

Since the robin does not believe in order, she is still more suitable than Sunday to summon the messenger under these circumstances. It can only be said that the messenger she summons must be more powerful than Sunday's.

Similarly, this also explains why Robin was able to quickly secure his position as head of the Oak family after Sunday's defeat, and why the other heads of the family dared not object after suffering a setback.

Old Emperor was clearly very wary of the Robin, so when the Hullstone was given to Star in the game, he didn't even try to negotiate and just accepted it.

　The description of the global locust plague by [Aha] is as follows, as described by Hippie.

　　"Oh, Mother of the Stars!" Aha began to boast, but His words made you uncomfortable. "As long as what you want to do is fun enough—even a relay race! Things change in an instant. Last time we were negotiating, and next time Taiyi has become you. What a pity... my old friend! But He makes you look *better*."

　　The last sentence, "He made you look better," clearly indicates that Hippe was not the Order that was devoured during Ascension.

　　Instead, it took advantage of the weakening of order to devour this destiny that highly overlapped with its own.

　　For an introduction to the harmonic recursive scale, please refer to the explanation of the Harmonious Strings entry in the game.
