Use FGO to open the second dimension

But Remlia is different. The scarlet devil is not as friendly as imagined.

But then again, this is the first time I've done something called spirit particle transfer.

As Koizumi entered the basket, a look of surprise crossed his face, along with a hint of anticipation.

This is quite normal, after all, this is the first time Koizumi has transferred a singularity in this way.

"It's an interesting method... The fusion of magic and technology has actually reached this level? Time travel... Soul particle transfer... Heroic Spirit summoning system... If these technologies were fully mastered, it would be amazing..."

Koizumi's eyes sparkled. Fortunately, Chaldea's original intention was good, and neither Dr. Roman, Da Vinci, Ritsuka, nor Mashu were the kind of people who would take advantage of this.

In addition, this is an extraordinary period. Because of the human factors burning, everything will return to the original state after repairs.

Of course, the phrase "return to the origin" is just talk. After all, it's impossible for people who died in a singularity to be truly resurrected. Apart from anything else, the energy required is already enormous. The mere restoration of human physiology can't be subtle enough to affect an individual. At most, it can rewrite people's understanding of the cause of death... The more deeply he studies his own power, the more Koizumi understands this, but Ritsuka and the others don't know this.

They still believe that once humanity is restored, the dead will be resurrected.

But this is enough. It is precisely because of this purity in their hearts that Koizumi likes them so much.

They just need to stay like this, nothing else is needed.

This is what Koizumi believes. It is precisely because of their inner purity that he falls in love with them.

Especially Mashu, this pure white paper, Koizumi doesn't want her to be stained by any stain.

The transmission speed is very fast. It can basically be said that it only takes a jump in the brain to reach the singularity in an instant.

It always feels like there is no difference from the gap, but in fact there is still a big difference.

The touch of the breeze, the smell of the earth, and the vast blue sky. In the blink of an eye, this place has become the second singularity.

"So this is what singularities are like. They're surprisingly ordinary." Patchouli glanced around and said slowly.

"But it's really huge. The vast outside world. I haven't seen it in ages."

Sakuya couldn't help but sigh like this. Before she entered Gensokyo and even before she met the eldest lady, she was wandering alone. Since she met the eldest lady and entered Gensokyo, her route of movement was basically restricted. Although she met all kinds of people and things, the total scope was only that big.

However, the people and things encountered in Gensokyo are much more interesting than those in the outside world.

Both myself and my young lady think so - it's really great to be able to come to Gensokyo!

"Now that we're here, we have to take a good look around and learn about the magic of this era!"

Although Patchouli came reluctantly, one thing was certain, that was to visit and learn.

After all, ancient Rome was a renowned empire, even in later generations. While it has both positive and negative reputations, it ultimately influenced the development of many subsequent nations. It's truly thrilling to witness its splendor in person.

Koizumi doesn't have that many academic thoughts, and would rather resolve this singularity issue as soon as possible.

"Sure enough, that can be seen in the sky of this era. That halo is the same as the one that appeared in the sky of France last time." Mashu looked up at the sky. The huge halo seemed to surround and envelop the entire world, which was depressing.

Patchouli also subconsciously looked up at the sky, and a gleam of light appeared in her eyes.

"That should be a massive magic spell, but it can actually use the era and the world as fuel for the spell. The magic knowledge possessed by the one who possesses this magic is definitely beyond my reach! How terrifying!"

Patchouli said this, her face full of shock and curiosity.

Being able to use magic of this level, no, this is already the magic level, the magic level of this world!

Even if the other party was called the King of Magic, it would definitely not shock Patchouli.

Chapter 524: The Year of the Four Emperors

"Even Patchouli, you can't break the circle of light in the sky?" Koizumi couldn't help but ask.

Patchouli shook her head solemnly. Only when she really encountered this human burning incident did she understand how terrifying the ability of the guy behind it was. This technique alone was enough to shock her!

At least there was absolutely no record of such a complex magic in her library.

If there was magic of this level, she wouldn't have descended with this ordinary Caster's spirit base.

But then again, if she could research magic of this level, she would have no regrets in her life.

After all, magic of this magnitude is almost impossible to research, okay! Patchouli thought to herself.

"It seems that thing isn't just any ordinary thing. As you said, using the era and the world as the fuel for the entire technique, then what's ultimately achieved should be something called the burning of human principles... It's truly incredible..." Koizumi's eyes gleamed with a gleam as he spoke.

"Indeed, the people who can achieve such a great feat are probably only a handful in the whole world. This shady deal is really incredible... The crisis on your side is no less than ours... MuQ..." Patchouli said lightly. From Remlia, she also learned a lot about things here and on her side, such as the world-class crisis on this side and the matter of her younger sister.

For Remi, the matter of her younger sister was the most devastating thing for her. The younger sister in another singularity finally killed Remi from that possible world. You know, no matter how the younger sister makes trouble, even if she fights with Remi, one thing is certain, that is, she will not use heavy hands on her sister.

Because no matter how insane my sister becomes, she will always remember one thing: she must never lay a hand on her elder sister, and she must never see her elder sister get hurt...

But... Patchouli sighed slightly. This time, things were really troublesome...

Then, Patchouli shook her head and put all the nonsense in her mind aside. Now that she had followed him, she might as well help him with advice wholeheartedly. Patchouli believed that her wisdom could still be useful.

The Seven Stars Sages are no joke! Although she's still far behind those like Yakumo Yukari who have lived for who knows how many years, Patchouli, as an old bookworm, has learned countless knowledge. She's not just an armchair sage like Zhao Kuo. She's a genuine sage, but this sage has a negative physical fitness, only able to use her brain but not her body. This is truly a sad thing!

"Ms. Mashu, you can contact Chaldea now and ask what era it is here? Who is in power? Since this is a singularity, anything can happen. We must master all the information we can so that we can make the right judgment on any emergency." Patchouli said very calmly.

Hearing this, Koizumi couldn't help but nod. A serious Patchouli was still very reliable.

"Pachuli is right," Koizumi agreed slowly.

Meanwhile, Sakuya and Yuyuko (Xixingyao) stood silently beside Koizumi, not saying a word.

The two of them said that they were here only to take care of Koizumi and act as his thugs.

In fact, this is indeed the case. In order to prevent Koizumi's old injury from recurring, Youyouko (Xixingyao) comes to help Koizumi as a very powerful fighter. Although Youyouko (Xixingyao)'s personality problems make it difficult for her to exert her full strength, if it is for Koizumi, even if Youyouko (Xixingyao) feels sad for those who died, she will use almost 100% of her strength to help Koizumi eliminate all enemies in front of her.

Sakuya was ordered to take care of Koizumi's daily life, even though Koizumi repeatedly said it was not necessary.

But Sakuya's ability is indeed very useful, so Koizumi has no intention of opposing Remi's decision.

Mashu nodded, then began to connect to the communication from Chaldea. "Doctor Roman, it's me... um... We've arrived safely at our destination. If the time period is correct... it should be the first century, right? Hmm... So the era and the emperor at the time were... I understand... um... Leave it to us..."

"I've already made sure..." After ending the call, Mashu's expression became a little serious.

"We're currently in 69 AD. In other words, it's the Year of the Four Emperors, shortly after the fifth Roman Emperor, Nero Claudius, committed suicide following a rebellion. It was a turbulent period when four Roman emperors emerged in the space of a single year!"

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across Gu Quan's eyes. He didn't expect it to be during this period!

A solemn expression appeared on Patchouli's face. According to the knowledge given to her by the Holy Grail, this era is very chaotic! This is not a good thing for her and others!

According to historical records, Nero Claudius, the fifth emperor of the Roman Empire, is famous for being a tyrant who led to the decline of the Roman Empire. Of course, when it comes to the title of tyrant, Gilgamesh is also a top-notch one.

Rumors abounded that Nero Claudius neglected state affairs, was brutal and bloodthirsty, and indulged in entertainment, acting, and women. He even considered himself a "great artist." In June 4th, a fire broke out in Rome, destroying nearly the entire city. Nero, however, chanted poetry in the palace and, after the blaze, built a new palace, dubbed the "Golden Palace."

At that time, there were rumors that Nero set the palace on fire in order to build a new palace. In order to dispel the rumors, Nero used Christians as scapegoats and killed them on a large scale. And so on and so forth, Nero's various misdeeds are too numerous to list.

Nero's tyranny sparked widespread rebellion. Large-scale uprisings broke out in Roman provinces like Britain, Gaul, and Spain, and the Jewish War erupted in Palestine. In 68 AD, Galba, a general in Spain, rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor. The Senate immediately recognized Galba as emperor, declared Nero an enemy of the country, and sentenced him to death.

Nero fled Rome, but at the critical moment, realizing his escape was impossible, he committed suicide. After Galba proclaimed himself emperor, his age and frailty prevented him from controlling the situation, leading to the rise of independent generals. Rome fell into civil strife.

After that, Rome saw the rise of three more emperors: Otto, Vitellius, and Vespasian. All served under Nero during his reign, a period known in history as the Year of the Four Emperors.

Chapter 525: This is the Year of the Four Emperors? Are you sure you're not kidding?

"Are you sure it's the Year of the Four Emperors? The most turbulent period of civil unrest in the Roman Empire? I can't even see a trace of the Great Fire of Rome! You told me it's the Year of the Four Emperors! Are you sure you checked it right?!"

After walking all this way and arriving at the legendary City of Seven Hills, Gu Quan couldn't help but swear!

Although I know that this is the era of the Four Emperors, there is one thing that I must verify personally, and that is the fact!

After all, history is history, and we cannot judge the whole thing based solely on the little knowledge in the book.

So if possible, Koizumi wants to use his own eyes to discern the so-called historical truth.

After all, there are some things that cannot be correctly judged without seeing them firsthand. What is written in history books is up to the recorder, and the true history is not certain. After all, historians who record history often have personal biases.

Back to the point, when they arrived at the City of Seven Hills, Koizumi and the others stood on a hillside in the distance, looking at the capital of Rome not far away. Their eyes were filled with shock, and even Mashu was speechless.

Because just now Mashu had been explaining to Koizumi and the others about the Roman Empire, especially the Year of the Four Emperors.

Mashu was just worried that Koizumi and the others didn't know. Mashu had been constantly learning about these things and knew them very well, so there was no problem in popularizing them to Koizumi and the others.

However, Koizumi's expression is very strange right now. Why can't I see that this looks like he's been through civil unrest and fire? Nero burned down Rome before, and almost the entire city was burned down. Does this look like it's been burned down now?

According to legend, Rome was originally founded by Romulus on Palatine Hill (Collis Palatinus). The other six hills are now called differently from their ancient names: Aventine Hill (Collis Palatinus), Capitoline Hill (Capitolinus), Quirinal Hill (Quirinalis), Viminalis Hill, Esquilinus Hill, and Caelius Hill.

Initially, these seven hills were occupied by different groups of people, with no intention of uniting them into a single city, Rome. Later, the inhabitants of these seven hills began to participate in a series of religious activities, and gradually became united. Thus, the city of Rome gradually took shape. The inhabitants cleared the marshes between the hills and built markets and courts there.

Thus, the present-day Rome was formed, also known as the City of Seven Hills.

The City of Seven Hills is approximately 6200 meters long from north to south and 3500 meters wide from east to west. The walls cross the river and zigzag along the hillside, forming an irregular shape, like a crouching lion. With such magnificent craftsmanship appearing in the first century AD, it's no wonder that Roman techniques were emulated by later generations. However, there's a key point here.

In 6/4 AD, Rome was struck by a fire that burned almost the entire city, but only four districts remained untouched. Five years had indeed passed. However, with the technology of the time, it was impossible to completely repair the entire structure in just a few years. Regardless, the burn marks were visible from the outside, but—

In everyone's eyes, Rome was flawless! It was perfectly acceptable to call it a perfect work of art!

Even from a modern perspective, Rome is no less impressive! There's not a single scar from the fire, and a constant stream of people coming and going. From a distance, it's perfectly acceptable to call Rome a bustling capital.

"This isn't just meddling with history and causing it to deviate slightly... Mashu, are you sure you're reading a proper history book? Did Romani get the right one?" Koizumi couldn't help but show a hint of shock on his face.

For some reason, he sensed a very dangerous aura coming from the City of Seven Hills!

Unable to calm his restlessness, Koizumi turned his gaze towards Mashu and slowly asked.

"I don't know either. What's going on? This should be a very turbulent time!"

Mashu was also filled with doubt. The history book she was reading was correct! It was the history book that Chaldea claimed was the closest to historical facts after its research! After all, Chaldea was responsible for restoring history, so how could it possibly make mistakes in this area? If it made mistakes in this area, they might as well all go back home and farm!

Although Patchouli was very tired and even a little out of breath after walking all the way, but——

The magic book in her hand slowly opened, and a huge amount of magic power began to rise. The girl opened her red lips slightly, and seemed to be muttering something. Gu Quan and others couldn't help but look over, only to see that the girl's red lips opened and closed at an extremely fast speed, like a monk chanting. It was obvious that this was the girl's inherent ability - high-speed chanting!

If her perception was correct, Patchouli should be exploring the distant city of Rome.

Perhaps some kind of magic covered the surface of Rome, preventing Koizumi and the others from witnessing the true nature of it.

Youyouzi (Journey to the West) frowned slightly. For some reason, she felt a familiar breath from the distant city, which seemed to be very similar to her past self in some way.

But this feeling is very faint, maybe it's my own illusion...

"No problem, that city is indeed the City of Seven Hills. There is no trace of magic on it, but—"

Having said that, Patchouli's voice paused for a moment, as if she was hesitating about something.

"What's wrong?" Koizumi looked at the other party curiously.

"It's nothing, it must be an illusion. Anyway, there is no problem with that city!"

Patchouli closed the magic book in her hand, with a strange look in her eyes, but she didn't say much.

"Anyway, let's go to Rome first... We won't be able to see anything unusual if we don't go in and investigate!"

Hearing this, Gu Quan nodded. Patchouli was right about this. If they didn't go to Rome to investigate, they would know nothing. So they might as well go to Rome and investigate thoroughly.

"That's right! Senior Koizumi and Miss Patchouli are right! We can only know the situation by going in! Maybe the people in there are dying!" Mashu nodded quickly and said this, which made Ritsuka twitch the corners of his mouth.

Mashu, although I know you are very unhappy because the facts do not match what you said, you should not curse the country like this! You are being too rude! Ritsuka couldn't help but complain in her heart, but she didn't say it out loud. She is very doting on her juniors!

If Mashu wants to do something willful, Ritsuka will follow his junior!

Ritsuka is someone who loves her juniors so much, and she has always been like this.

They would choose to resolve the human incineration, one for their own survival, and the other for Mashu.

Of course, she also hopes that Roman, Da Vinci and the current Chaldea staff can survive.

Chapter 526 The Shocking City of Rome

"This is Rome... This is my first time in a place like this... The Ancient Roman Empire!"

Koizumi's tone was filled with amazement, and he was quite surprised to have come to the ancient Roman Empire.

However, it is normal for singularities to appear here. After all, the influence of ancient Rome on Europe is still very far-reaching.

Ancient Greece and Rome are the cradles of European civilization. Ancient Greek civilization, which lasted approximately 650 years, is the most important and direct source of Western civilization. All recorded Western literature and art began in ancient Greece.

In the 5th and 6th centuries BC, especially after the Persian Wars, economic life was highly prosperous, and the brilliant Greek culture emerged, which had a profound impact on later generations.

The ancient Greeks had profound attainments in philosophy, poetry, architecture, science, literature, drama, mythology, and many other fields. After the fall of ancient Greece, this civilizational legacy was destructively continued by the ancient Romans, thus becoming the spiritual source of the entire Western civilization.

Ancient Rome is a civilization that emerged in the central part of the Italian Peninsula (also known as the Apennine Peninsula) in the early 9th century BC. Throughout the Roman Monarchy and the Roman Republic, the most important contribution made by the Romans to world culture was the preservation of the cultural achievements of Greece and the Middle East.

The Romans, based on the extensive absorption of excellent cultural achievements of neighboring ethnic groups, especially the outstanding cultural achievements of the ancient Greeks, created their own unique culture in accordance with the needs of their own social, economic and political development, adding new content to world culture.

Moreover, the Romans helped spread Christianity. If the Romans had not accepted Christianity, it would probably have remained a minor religion in the Middle East, whereas it is now one of the world's major religions.

Christianity, which originated and developed under the specific historical conditions of the Roman Empire, has left a profound mark on the development of human culture as a whole, especially European culture.

Of course, it must be acknowledged that Nero’s suppression of Christianity was quite harsh.

Not all kings take missionary work seriously. Sometimes, when a doctrine threatens the king's rule, it is time to reject the doctrine. This is certain.

"How can it be so prosperous? This is totally inconsistent with history." Mashu looked as if she was doubting her life.
