……

Then, browsing the information about the Heavenly Soldiers' Spiritual Base provided by the Spirit of the Weapon - Yustisa, Xia Yan nodded with great satisfaction.

The basic ability parameters of this hawk-dog type of 'Heavenly Soldier' ​​golem are not outstanding among the Lancer class servants in the Holy Grail War. Not only are they average in all aspects, they also lack the special skills, mechanisms and Noble Phantasms brought by the Legend of Heroic Spirits.

By combining the characteristics of the Noble Phantasms (Voice Corpse) such as [Horn] and [Immortal Error], the derived B+ rank inherent skill [Iron Body Soul Forging] allows the 'Heavenly Soldier' ​​to be destroyed in battle, even if his entire body is shattered, by consuming magic power through the spiritual base information recorded in the [Holy Grail] to immediately recast his form.

Moreover, because they are not truly "living creatures" with their own selves, they are subject to many normal mental delivery methods. For example, they are spiritualized and launched with lightning, and then materialize again the moment the lightning strikes the ground. This is completely suitable for these mass-produced standard Servant-level combat cannon fodder.

In terms of combat power, it's roughly equivalent to that of an ordinary second- or third-rate servant. Although he has no Noble Phantasms or special skills, and can fight hand-to-hand with servants of the same rank, he will most likely still lose in the end.

However, as a cannon fodder that can be mass-produced, reaching the standard of Servant-level combat effectiveness is already quite good.

At least in the Holy Grail War, it is entirely possible to kill an iron FW like Hassan the Hundred Faces head-on. As long as the number is increased, with the same number of people, it will definitely be stronger than the Macedonian 10,000-strong gay group summoned by Iskandar's EX-level Noble Phantasm, the King's Army.

What's more, after summoning the virtual gods of the [Artificial Virtual Heaven] and unfolding the [Privileged Field of Thought Disk: Heavenly Law], these "Heavenly Soldiers" can also obtain the blessing of the [Heavenly Law], obtain numerical increase corrections on the basic ability parameters, and can also act as mobile nodes to expand the coverage and influence range of the [Heavenly Law].

"Alright, before we go back, we'll create as many Heavenly Soldiers as possible (Sound of Life). Even if we can't reach a hundred thousand, we'll have to at least have four figures..."

Immediately, Xia Yan devoted himself to the work of assisting Irena in creating the 'Sky Soldier' ​​golem (Sound Corpse). In order to avoid being disturbed by the outside world, and to ensure that Asthesia completely transferred the assets of the 'Meteor Goddess' and integrated them into the [Great Holy Grail], and to elevate this treasure into a true artifact in one fell swoop, without attracting the attention of the outside world, he simply left the labyrinth city of Orario a year before the main storyline of Dicuo was about to officially begin, and found a deep mountain forest far away from human habitation and went into it.

until.

someday.

Suddenly, a treasure chest appeared out of thin air in Xia Yan's sight. When he shifted his gaze over there, the treasure chest that only he could see disappeared in a golden light, and two prompt windows from the system popped up in front of him.

[Challenge successful]

[Exit the instance (automatically exit after 300 seconds)]

(PS: I'm finally updating normally again tonight—and I originally wanted to write a little about the protagonist's interactions with the original characters, but due to the delays caused by the update status and the negative reactions caused by the excessive focus on the magical changes, I simply skipped it... Anyway, the rest of this volume is about going back to the entire evil spirit space and fighting boss monsters from different horror and supernatural movies. The protagonist's level is now high enough, so the dungeons in the next volume can be of high difficulty...

Now let's talk about something realistic... I was inexplicably lucky today. I got Zanni after 40 draws, and rescued her with the special weapon after 50 draws, so a total of 90 draws... This is a bit ridiculous. I can't even remember the last time I was so lucky. According to the law of luck, will the card pool of the Angel of the Universe and Remnant on the 1st of next month be so unlucky that I have to spend 300 to get both... Although I have saved up almost 500 draws, I will definitely have to draw another 500 draws to exchange for yellow tickets~ Oh my god)

The fourth instance: 133. The missing Dark Portal

When the [Exit Copy] prompt pops up, the countdown number keeps decreasing and finally changes from 1 to 0.

Xia Yan suddenly fell into a trance. When he came to his senses, an endless sea of ​​flowers under the blue sky and white clouds came into his sight.

Although two years had actually passed in his personal time, for the blue sky, white clouds and endless sea of ​​flowers, he had only disappeared for a short while.

As a result, this [Inherent Barrier - Avalon], which was generated by the imaginary treasure [Pseudo-Expansion/Avalon] obtained by Irena from her own spiritual base, served as the foundation. With the help of the [Golden Scripture of the Sun] and [Black Scripture of the Undead]'s ability to convert solar energy into etheric magic, it was opened up in the stratosphere and always followed the movement of the daytime time zone. Currently, there were no abnormalities in maintenance and operation due to the fact that he recalled the [Golden Scripture of the Sun] and [Black Scripture of the Undead] before entering the "copy".

However, the truly devilish environment on Earth was still diluting all supernatural powers at all times. Without the mirror space that could convert solar energy into etheric magic power through the [Golden Scripture of the Sun] and the [Black Scripture of the Undead], it was like Unit-01 had its back cable disconnected and it lacked the S2 mechanism (Fruit of Life) that could devour the Angels. It could only rely on the built-in 'energy' to last another five minutes.

Even if it was a mirror space integrated with the [Inherent Barrier - Avalon], without the endless supply of etheric magic to offset the iron fist correction from the most real physical laws in the absolute magic environment, it could only barely survive for a few minutes before completely collapsing.

Before it completely collapses, the structure and stability of the entire mirror space will begin to gradually disintegrate as the etheric magic power that maintains its existence is consumed but not replenished.

In fact, the next second after leaving the "copy", Xia Yan accurately sensed through his "soul" that there was some spatial distortion and folding at the very edge of the sea of ​​flowers.

Xia Yan was mentally prepared for this and immediately took out the [Golden Scripture of the Sun] and the [Black Scripture of the Undead] from the storage space on the magic weapon page.

Then, he raised his hand and lifted the air, and a nine-story stone tower appeared in his palm. He casually threw it into the air, and it instantly changed from a small and exquisite "model" into a tall tower, emitting thousands of rays of light and auspicious colors, and landed above the sea of ​​flowers.

Then, a light gate opened on the surface of the stone tower.

Irena skillfully stepped out of the light gate, holding a white staff inlaid with sapphires and quickly walked to Xia Yan, taking the [Golden Sutra of the Sun] and [Black Sutra of the Undead] that he handed over.

Then, the witch waved her staff and transferred the two scriptures to the core area of ​​the mirror space through the air. She activated the function of converting solar energy into etheric magic at the fastest speed, and stabilized the maintenance and operation of the mirror space again.

"It's done."

Irena raised her chin proudly.

"But I still have to say that if the impact of environmental factors cannot be resolved, the maintenance and operation of this mirror space will always pose a major safety risk."

"As expected."

Xia Yan nodded.

"After the Ascension Ceremony, we won't have any use for the Golden Scripture of the Sun and the Black Scripture of the Dead. We can just leave these two ancient Egyptian artifacts in the mirror space and there won't be any need to worry about potential safety hazards."

"It seems that this place is really not that good, um..."

At this time, Asthesia's voice sounded, and Liberi, who had long dark blue hair, walked out of the light gate with her long skirt lifted up, but she suddenly stumbled and fell straight into Xia Yan's arms.

"...I'm sorry, Xia Yan, I didn't expect...that I would be so weak."

Asthesia, no longer the 'Meteor Goddess' of the [Heaven], had been stripped of all her divinity and power, and was barely able to accept the incomplete third method of soul materialization. She looked up at Xia Yan and gave him a smile that looked very happy.

“But it’s such a fun feeling.”

As an innate immortal and a god of the [Heaven] in the world of the Earthly 'copy', Asthesia felt for the first time in her life how 'vulnerable' she was.

This 'fragility' does not mean that her body is weak.

Rather, it is a kind of "fragility" that comes from the soul level, the mental level and the consciousness level, as if one has just had a serious illness and the whole body is almost collapsed.

This was also a novel experience that Asthesia had never experienced before.

"I can now feel that I will die. It's no longer like before, when I couldn't die even if I wanted to..."

"You're not going to suddenly think about committing suicide, are you?!"

"of course not."

Asthesia raised her chin, offered him a kiss, and said:

"I finally left that boring world, so I can't bear to die. What's more, I've already 'married' myself to you. Now I'm a member of your harem, my dear."

Hearing this, Irena rolled her eyes and said, "So, how long do you two plan to keep being so affectionate?"

Asthesia chuckled lightly and stopped leaning on Xia Yan. Instead, she took a few deep breaths, steadied her weak body, and said helplessly:

"It seems I need to get used to it for a while. I won't be able to play any role for the time being, so I won't hold you back... Xia Yan, I'm going to go wash up and lie in bed and wait for you to come back and 'eat' me~!"

After saying that, Asthesia winked mischievously, gave Xia Yan an ambiguous smile, turned around and walked into the villa behind her.

"Irena, please move to Tokyo, Japan before me."

"I thought you were going to use your lower body to think for you."

Irena raised her staff.

"Well, get ready—let's go~!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yan saw the surrounding scenery suddenly become blurred, and the figure of the witch that was originally close at hand gradually faded away.

After a while, with the sudden inversion of the sky and the earth, Xia Yan found that above his head, a modern city appeared, hanging upside down in the sky, and he was "flying" towards it with the help of gravity.

The next moment, Xia Yan turned 180 degrees in the air and landed on a white cloud. He stood high in the sky and overlooked the modern city below. The five-meter-tall humanoid mecha [Wugui's Error] appeared behind him, immediately hacked into the network and secretly took over all satellite signals.

"Ok?"

But when [No Return's Error] called up the surveillance footage of the entire city below, Xia Yan looked at the streets of Tokyo Ginza, which had not changed at all, and couldn't help but frown.

No.

Originally in the plot of GATE, the semi-permanent large inter-dimensional portal that was supposed to appear on Roku-chome Street in Ginza, Tokyo, did not appear in the real world's Ginza, Tokyo, as in that extremely ridiculous and stupid anime.

"not here?"

Xia Yan showed a bit of surprise on his face.

Then, he had the AI ​​of the humanoid mecha [No Return Error] call up surveillance footage of other international metropolises on Earth...

No, no, no, no, no…

...none of them.

After searching through the surveillance footage of all internationally famous cities on Earth in the real world, Xia Yan still couldn't find the large semi-permanent inter-dimensional portal that would connect to a sword and magic low-magic medieval fantasy world.

There is even no news found about "a large number of terrorists armed with cold weapons smashing, looting and burning in the streets". From the five major gangs to the five permanent members of the UN Security Council on YouTube, as well as other countries, big and small, there is currently no sign of declaring a national state of emergency.

This made Xia Yan feel like he was punching cotton.

After all, two years before his personal experience, in order to avoid things from the wrong 'copy' world appearing in reality, he had already prepared himself mentally for the things from the other two 'copy' worlds to cause chaos in the real world.

Among them, even if Freddy from A Nightmare on Elm Street starts killing people, it is estimated that it will not cause much trouble in America where people shoot freely every day, and can be dealt with later.

In contrast, something that might have come into the real world from a 'copy' of the GATE fantasy Self-Defense Force would have a far greater impact than a mere murderous ghost in a supernatural horror film.

And that replica of the 'Dark Portal' is Xia Yan's most troublesome target.

But now, there seems to be no trace of that semi-permanent large inter-dimensional portal in any of the more famous cities on the entire earth.

Could it be that the thing that entered reality from the 'copy' of the GATE Fantasy Self-Defense Force was not a replica of the 'Dark Portal', but something else in that low-magic-level fantasy world?

Or maybe... that semi-permanent large inter-dimensional portal is opened in some remote corner of the real world?

But it’s always better to be cautious.

Xia Yan did not rush to draw conclusions.

After notifying Irena to transfer himself back to the mirror space, he immediately asked [No Return Error] to keep an eye on any movement on the real world network 24 hours a day.

But after being vigilant for a whole week and not discovering anything suspiciously related to the 'semi-permanent large inter-dimensional portal', Xia Yan began to truly suspect that the thing that came to the real world from the 'copy' of the GATE fantasy Self-Defense Force might not really be a replica of the 'Dark Portal', but rather the other embarrassing things in that low-magic sword and magic fantasy world that even the Self-Defense Force, which lives a good life, can't beat.

However, if we follow the absolute magic environment of the real world Earth, anything coming from that low-magic fantasy world, whether it is an elf or a dragon, will most likely die on the spot, and the best case scenario is that they will not adapt to the local climate.

Unless it is a divine individual from that world.

Otherwise, there won’t be any waves.

Thinking of this, Xia Yan breathed a sigh of relief...

...In the GATE fantasy Self-Defense Force plot, the god of the low-magic fantasy world, although he does not have any specific expressive power, is definitely not as powerful as those [celestial] gods in the Dicuo worldview who are often at the planetary level. Even if he can cause any trouble on the earth in the real world, he is absolutely sure to suppress it.
