He was imprisoned in Nibelungen for a thousand years, only to find out upon his release that he was

There are only two possibilities: First, the great god Odin appears and fights with whom, seemingly turning Britain into a battlefield of the Age of Gods, and the Snowfield City incident reappears;

Secondly, Marisbury was executed by the Clock Tower in London for allegedly following Odin's instructions and orchestrating the Holy Grail War in Snowfield City.

Third, Kirshtalia tampered with the celestial sphere because of Marisbury's instructions.

'So, from Odin to Marisbury, and then to Kirshtalia, all are within the same organization?' Beryl, who had been an assassin for many years, was quite sensitive to this.

Both sides, now suspicious, looked at each other.

Beryl spoke first, a hint of inquiry in his eyes, "I think we need to investigate the situation in Britain as soon as possible."

Kirshtalia smiled and nodded naturally. "Indeed, it is necessary to investigate the situation in Britain."

At that moment, both sides suddenly and simultaneously became certain of something in their hearts:

'As expected! The boss (teacher) and Kirshtalia (Beryl) hid the matter concerning Odin from me!'

Volume 1: Taking a Day Off

I need to take a day off. My sleep schedule has been a bit irregular lately, and I've been experiencing unexplained pains in various parts of my body from time to time. It's probably because I've been staying up too late.

Volume 1: Chapter 165 Chaldea is Odin's spy planted in Kassel!

Meanwhile, Kirshtalia and Beryl suspected each other, each harboring their own ulterior motives and engaging in mutual deception.

Beryl claimed he was ordered by his boss to investigate Britain, but the extraordinary phenomena that day were truly terrifying. So he simply circled the edge of Britain, around the Channel, pretending to investigate, hoping to get away with it.

He wanted to see what Odin, his former boss Marisbury, and his current leader Kirshtalia were really up to in this tumultuous and chaotic Britain.

As for trying to get in on his own initiative? To become a sacrifice in the astrophysics mentor-apprentice program? He's not that stupid.

Beryl thought to himself, "Let's just keep delaying like this."

"Given time, those people locked up inside will eventually be unable to contain themselves."

Kirshtalia, while claiming to have Beryl investigate the cause as soon as possible, never actually urged Beryl to do so. Instead, he spent all his time, day and night, focusing on the celestial device Chaldea.

At present, Kirshtalia only has Marisbury's original plan that it can reliably implement, so speeding up the progress of the plan is the priority.

The situation in Britain is unknown. Perhaps the master has given Beryl other instructions, after all, Beryl is a fairy-hybrid born in Britain.

As for Odin...

"It is said that the Snowfield City where it last appeared was attacked by multiple Ancestor-level Dead Apostles, and the entire city was sealed off due to an unknown anomaly."

"They've reappeared in Britain this time. Could it be that what they've done together... is a repeat of their old tricks?"

With this in mind, Kirshtalia became even more anxious to contact the students in Kassel, using the connections left by their teacher to select those with sufficient aptitude for spirit particle transfer. Regardless of what others thought or did, she would simply proceed according to plan; ultimately, one must be strong enough to succeed.

Coincidentally, the school board members have been fooled by rhetoric lately and will not suspect for a while that someone is "harboring malicious intentions" and using Kassel's resources to make a quick buck, carrying out their own secret plans under a seemingly impressive guise.

"Fortunately, the celestial sphere is functioning well. We initially thought it would take many years, but the data and conditions are now favorable. If we proceed according to plan, it will only take a maximum of..."

Looking at the core device for ensuring human safety, Kirshtalia's lips curled up slightly. "Three months..."

......

"Ah chirp!"

A blast of cold air hit her, and Ritsuka couldn't help but sneeze.

The city of London was now shrouded in a thick fog.

This reminded Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu of the fourth singularity they had helped restore, "The City of the Dead Mist," London.

London was also shrouded in fog, but this was no ordinary fog; it was the "fog of war."

Alongside the colossal temple of Valhalla, valiant warriors charged forward, fiercely battling massive monsters, some tens or even hundreds of meters tall, in a fierce struggle on the battlefield.

The massive projection of magical energy caused an explosion, which, together with the light and heat impact released by the "Imagine Collapse" after the Noble Phantasm missile, intertwined and rose violently on the ground, causing smoke and dust to billow into the sky, blotting out the sun.

In addition, Ritsuka also heard that the magical beast Hegura possessed the ability to continuously split into multiple individuals through magical mist. It absorbed the magical power of the underground tombs of London and created those magical mists that could form clones.

Of course, besides that, the one who caused the biggest commotion was none other than the Demon King in the sky. The fierce and overwhelming firepower set the entire sky ablaze, finally allowing the Chaldea duo to truly experience what it meant that "the giant halo appearing in the sky above the singularity is the Demon King's Noble Phantasm."

London, the destroyed clock tower, the demonic mist, the demonic pillars, and the Demon King...

Do you feel anything?

Ritsuka sighed inwardly.

It feels like a dream come true, my family.

This is truly a nostalgic trip down memory lane to the Fourth Singularity...

I just don't know why.

This time, the "London Singularity" that came to this world has added some Odin and dragon elements.

"The Demon Pillar's appearance is actually a disguise. Once it reveals its true form, it is a dragon-like creature called the Demon Beast Hell. This is Odin's conspiracy."

"The Clock Tower was blown up. The Demon King came here specifically to destroy Britain, aiming to use the remains of the First Dragon beneath this land. This is also a conspiracy by Odin's incarnation."

"But the Clock Tower itself had long since fallen into Odin's clutches, and the monarchs were instructed to plot against him. Marisbury, the former director of Chaldea, was one of them."

“This Marisbury is definitely not a good person for conducting human experiments, but Mashu said that doctors may also have problems. The Demon King once disguised himself and entered dreams to try to carry out a rebellion, and the image he chose was actually a doctor.”

"Moreover, during the Sixth Singularity, Mr. Holmes, whom I met at the Atlas Institute, also said that the Doctor suddenly appeared after Marisbury's victory in the Holy Grail War, and then quickly joined Chaldea. He became fast friends with Marisbury, but there was no other information about him, which is indeed suspicious."

"..."

Ms. Ritsuka went through the information again.

The main reason is that since she and Mashu intervened in this timeline, they have investigated a large amount of outrageous information that seems to be a mixture of truth and falsehood.

What's even more peculiar is that it went through a process of first doubting, then believing because it was proven, then discovering flaws and doubting again, and finally discovering that it was proven again.

After going through this again and again, she was completely dumbfounded; her ordinary-looking brain almost turned into mush.

She scratched her head. "Mash, are we going back to Chaldea?"

The savior has made me a little insecure.

Boom!

"what?"

Mashu had just blocked a magical attack from the enemy with her shield, and upon hearing this, she was stunned. After thinking for a while, she replied blankly:

"If we don't go back, who will save humanity?"

Their timeline's Earth is still burning.

"Yeah, who will save us?"

After Ritsuka finished speaking, she suddenly glanced at the sky.

The overwhelming presence of the fiercely burning halo overwhelmed everything.

But even more ferocious than the extremely dangerous third Noble Phantasm, the Infinite Light Cannon, was the figure on the other side who fearlessly charged forward against the tide.

Lu Ming! He's advancing under heavy fire, he's incredibly fierce!

Ritsuka gestured with his eyes, suggesting that he should take on the role of savior! Besides, once the Demon King was dealt with, the burning of humanity would be over, right? World destruction and the crisis of humanity would be solved in a flash!

At worst, I'll humble myself and step down to a lesser position!

Mashu raised her shield, but her expression was not as optimistic as Ritsuka's.

She could sense that the Demon King's spiritual foundation was still strong, and if this continued, it would only be a pointless exchange of blows.

"...Senior, things are not that simple."

"The situation is already very clear. No matter what the truth is about the Demon God Pillar and the Demon God King, they can rely on their immortality to be resurrected and can make a comeback even after being destroyed."

"Although Mr. Lu Ming is powerful, dealing with an opponent like this... well, one who is skilled at constructing rules, is still..."

Mashu felt that the Demon King, as the culprit behind the burning of humanity, should have been dealt with by them. Lu Ming just went in shouting "Odin, Odin!" and needed to be reminded.

"Furthermore, since you, senior, are also confused about your attitude towards Chaldea, why not consult Mr. Lu Ming? Perhaps he has more information and can offer some good advice..."

In the past, when Mashu and the others discussed this matter, they would go to Caster Cú Chulainn. However, as Lu Ming's information was "verified" time and time again by chance, Lu Ming's status in their eyes rose even higher.

In contrast, Cú Chulainn, despite his well-concealed identity, always subconsciously defended Odin's reputation, which eventually led to him being less respected.

Besides, even if they wanted to find him, Cú Chulainn himself would have a hard time. Who told Ishtar to abuse his power, treating Cú Chulainn like a dog, sending him all the way to conduct reconnaissance?

Ritsuka nodded and said, "That's true, but I don't know when Mr. Lu Ming will finish. I always felt that he was the kind of person who was very persistent and had a strong personality..."

"Huh, they stopped?"

......

Lu Ming ultimately chose to compromise with the Demon King.

In a sense, it was an inevitable result.

Lu Ming wanted to focus on destroying the Demon King's rear—the Grand Time Temple—but this was destined to be forbidden by the Demon King. As a result, the Great Light Wheel would only launch an increasingly fierce attack.

The Demon King also believed that the key to Lu Ming's immortality lay in the Valhalla Temple behind him.

Although the Demon King had indeed made a mistake in this step, Lu Ming absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen—after all, the Great Temple had so many functions that their team had spent a long time concentrating resources and manpower to repair! How could it withstand a bombardment from the Great Light Wheel?

With both sides wary of each other, they tacitly stopped fighting.

Furthermore, the departure of "Odin's true form" made them realize the urgency of time.

If this wastes time, it will only allow the enemy's "Odin" to succeed!

"Damn Odin's true form, he's so cunning. He left an avatar to fight me while he himself ran away so easily."

"I have a feeling that the bad situation won't stop after that guy slipped away. Maybe something even worse is already brewing."

Lu Ming was not without worry.

He returned to the gates of the Great Temple of Valhalla and expressed his thoughts to Ereshkigal, who was seated in the center.

"Then what should we do? Should we continue the attack?" Aileen asked. "If we maintain the previous pace of attack, we have enough weapons and equipment produced by our Great Temple, so we can still maintain zero casualties."

The powerful weaponry ensures that even hybrid warriors with only average Servant level skills will not be instantly blasted into dust, even if they are outmatched.

After that, as long as he falls into the Sea of ​​Life for some treatment, he will immediately become a hero again, able to roar and charge back into battle to wear down the enemy.

But the problem is that the enemy can also afford to drag things out.

Lu Ming pondered for a moment.

"We cannot give up the offensive."

Ai Lei nodded. "Then let's continue."

"But we can't rush into an attack."

Ai Lei didn't quite understand, "So, we're not going to fight?"

"It's not about not attacking, but about attacking slowly and deliberately, rhythmically and strategically. It's not about blindly attacking, but about attacking efficiently, precisely, and scientifically, while also being flexible and adaptable in special circumstances..."

Ereshkigal: "?"

What does that mean?

Just as Lu Ming was about to speak, he saw the orange-haired girl and the cherry-haired girl rushing over, panting. It was clearly Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu.

Seeing the serious expressions on their faces, Lu Ming assumed something had happened on the ground. "Has something happened at the front?"

"Oh, no! We came to find Miss Ai Lei to contact Mr. Lu Ming, but we didn't expect Mr. Lu Ming to be here..."

When she was called by her nickname, Ai Lei frowned slightly. Her relationship with these two people wasn't close enough for her to be called "Ai Lei," was it?

"and then?"

"I wanted to remind Mr. Lu Ming that you need to be careful about how you defeat enemies, especially those that regenerate repeatedly. You should destroy the forces behind them..."

Mashu was speaking slowly and deliberately when Lu Ming interrupted her, saying:

“I know, the temple, right? To be precise, the entire space where the temple is located, the space with its special rules.”

"Oh, right—"

The Chaldea duo were stunned. It seemed Lu Ming knew exactly what was going on.

“I understand it completely now; it’s a Nibelung.”

"Nibelungen?"

Ritsuka was stunned, and then Mash whispered in her ear, "Nibelungen in Norse mythology refers to the 'land of the dead.' Lu Ming was referring to the situation in Snowfield City before, the cage that Odin created, something like a Reality Marble."
