My mother's love song

This isn't actually his first time here.

He had often come here to visit during the Aleister era. It would be better to say that the Tomb of Albion was as familiar as seeing his mother's face back home.

Tianzhou Ma Anna turned into a golden wind and flew like a shuttle in the mining city with a total depth of more than 10,000 meters.

That’s right, the mining city is not actually an industrial city located above the tomb of the spirits, but an underground city transformed by magicians.

Since it was too troublesome for the miners to return to the surface, they built a living area 10 kilometers underground, which evolved into a city and became part of the ruins.

Under the shining light of the large crystals that are like stars, most monsters will not appear, which is why the safety of the city can be guaranteed.

After passing through 10 kilometers of shallow layers, we finally arrived at the shallow venous corridor of the tomb, Odvena.

Even the deepest point, 4 meters from the ground, is only the shallowest point compared to the Albion spirit tomb, which is more than 400 kilometers deep.

I don't know if this layer is something that fell off from the remains of a dragon, or if it's something that is native to the land, but it's covered in huge magic circuits.

No magus could harm these magic circuits, so they dug around them, forming passages like multiple corridors.

According to research, this is the magic circuit that the fairies used when they moved the "Fairy Town" to the inner world.

This area is inhabited by various fantastical species that are close to the Age of Gods, such as Chimera, snakes that transform from shadows into entities, and other monsters that seem to have come back from myths.

Each node will transform into a different terrain, such as lush jungles, snowy ice fields, lava flowing land, acid rivers dissolving underground, and hills with lightning and thunder. But even if you have seen these, you will still be told: "You don't even understand 1% of Albion."

Up to the tenth layer of the Venous Corridor, most of it has been mined out in the past 1500 years, and now the focus of mining is around the th layer.

Around the 60th floor, a capable team will take risks to explore the limits of the highly precious cursed body.

Rhodes and his team's destination was the entrance to the 30th floor.

It was the edge of a huge pit.

The circle that swallowed up the line of sight was equivalent to the materialized darkness, like a celestial body called a black hole.

"We're here. This is the Naru Pitto."

I threw a small stone and waited for several minutes but still heard no impact sound.

This was a secret known only to Rhode and a handful of familiar people. The Cave of Nothingness was not a shortcut to the lower level of the Ancient Heart, but a direct path to the deeper realm of fairies.

That is the area where the three-headed, six-eyed monster Coronzon once lived.

Although Coronzon did not specify where the final battle would take place, Rhodes stubbornly believed that the end of the dark abyss was the real final stage.

There was no particular reason, it was just Aleister Crowley's instinct as the half of Coronzon.

"Lord Rhodes."

The golden drill who was sitting behind the boy suddenly hugged him up with a nervous expression.

Rhodes nodded: "Ah, I found it too."

Just then, the earth cried out.

The rock surface not far away suddenly bulged up sharply, revealing the true form of the object hidden inside.

Although for a moment people mistakenly thought that an Eastern Dragon had appeared, this idea was immediately rejected.

"…Earthworm?!"

It's natural that it would be mistaken for a giant dragon, as its size is beyond imagination.

The earthworm, which was as big as a train, swooped over like a huge storm.

And there were not just one, but more than a dozen.

"!"

Trimmawu stood up from Maana.

"Don't hurt them."

Rhodes gently stopped the mercury maid who was about to shoot flying needles from her arms, and drove the Sky Boat to avoid the attack of the giant earthworm.

Even so, they did not let go of the idea of ​​this strange luminous object that broke into the underground. The earthworms turned around again and rushed towards Rhodes with fierce momentum.

"Still the same as before, such a strong sense of territory."

Rhodes showed a very nostalgic expression and smiled.

"Hold on tight, we are about to enter the Cave of Nothingness."

Tianzhou Ma Anna took a right-angle flying posture and glanced at the girls behind him.

Lanis was held firmly in the arms of the mercury maid, while Luvia hugged his waist tightly and put her face against his back with a happy look on her face.

The golden sky boat emitted a large amount of air currents and flew towards the abyss where no light existed.

“…Come to think of it, I seem to have forgotten something important.”

Rhodes held down his flying bangs and wondered, what on earth was that?

"Ms. Luvia, don't take this opportunity to touch me... Wait..."

Rhode turned around in surprise and said to the lolita on the sky boat: "No, why are you here?"

Aren't you supposed to get off in London?

Why are you going with me to fight the final boss level?

"Why... didn't you, Lord Rhodes, ask us to follow you?"

Luvia blinked her beautiful topaz eyes in a silly way, then smiled confidently.

"Please rest assured, Lord Rhodes. As long as I follow you, I will not hesitate even if it means going to the lowest level of hell!"

"..."

Rhodes held his head in despair: He forgot to leave them both outside.

Chapter 525 The Bond of Three Sisters

It reminds people of the fantasy world tree [Yggdrasill] or the tree of life [Kabala].

Here, tens of thousands of meters below the surface and almost reaching the center of the planet, there is an endless vortex of light.

The colorful lights dotted on countless magic rings are as gorgeous as the starry sky adjusted by Photoshop. It feels like being in the universe.

The little girl with short silver hair, the eldest daughter of the Crowley family, Coronzon α, stood in front of the huge magic circle, gazing at the beautiful Glowing Tree with a dazed expression.

"Hey, do you know about planetary magic circles?"

Alpha put his hands behind his back and suddenly spoke.

Of course, she wasn't talking to herself. The person she was talking to was Toosaka Rin, who was being held hostage not far away.

"Planetary magic circle... is that the theory proposed by Agrippa?"

The imprisoned black-haired girl with twin ponytails frowned.

"Oh? As expected of a genius girl from the Far East, she is still so young, yet she knows such obscure knowledge."

Alpha immediately showed a happy expression, blinking his big ruby ​​eyes: "No wonder that person thinks so highly of you...

He must be seriously considering training you as his successor."

“…………What are you talking about?”

Rin stared at the little girl's back and said unhappily, "Well, I don't know why you have such a misunderstanding.

I'm not the person you're looking for. Rod and I just happened to be traveling to London together.

Why are you looking at me with such suspicion? Okay, I admit that he was indeed my self-defense teacher, but that's all! I didn't learn any magic from him!"

In conclusion, Lin sighed: "Ahh... This is so unlucky. Can you let me leave here?"

Alpha turned around with a smile on her face and responded with seductive lip language.

No.

"whispering sound……"

Rin kicked the stone at his feet unhappily.

Alpha said, “As you said, the planetary magic circle was proposed by the magician Agrippa in the 16th century.

The magic circle that introduced the Kabbalah concept is associated with each planet in the solar system.

And what is now presented in front of you is the corresponding Sun Devil Array, with a layer number of 7. That is the [number of God].

Each layer is roughly presented as a six-fold magic cube, that is, it is depicted in the shape of a sun array.

At the corresponding positions on the phalanx, a ceremonial garment made from the remains of the fallen dragon Albion was placed to form the frame of the sun.

Alpha came up to Toosaka Rin, squatted down and hugged her face: "Then it's time to ask questions!

Big sister, can you understand? What does this magic circle mean? "

"…How could I know such a thing?"

Rin pouted.

The current situation reminded her of the American movie she had watched on the plane to London, in which the terrorists who were about to blow up the entire city to the ground exuded the same crazy feeling as the little girl in front of her.

Observing Rin's expression and reading the uneasiness in her eyes, Alpha narrowed his eyes happily.

"Then I'll give you a hint, big sis. The total number of columns in the Sun Devil's Array is... 666!"

"What...?" Rin held his breath.

Needless to say, this is exactly the number of the beast recorded in the final book of the New Testament.

Although it has also been interpreted as a prophetic book condemning a certain Roman tyrant.

Is it really just a coincidence?

What will this mysterious ritual based on the sun, constructed in the abyss close to the core of the planet, bring to mankind?

What does this girl who calls herself "Devil's Number" expect from her scarlet eyes?

……

……

……

"Ah! Beta! Gamma! You're back!"

Alpha's eyes lit up, and he shifted his gaze from the sweaty face of the twin-tailed girl to the dark space behind him.

"Sister, we are back."

The blonde, big-breasted middle sister of the Crowley family and the black-haired, ponytailed youngest sister of the Crowley family emerged from the darkness.

“I’m so lonely~~~”

Alpha trotted over and stood on tiptoe to touch their heads but gave up because he couldn't reach them.

"Sister, nothing happened while we were away, right?" Beta stroked her eldest sister's hair.

"Mmmmm... No, Ms. Lin is very well behaved."

Alpha, who was being patted on the head, showed a happy expression: "By the way, how did you two cancel your forms?"

She stared at Gama's black dog ears and tilted her head and said, "If you show this kind of attitude, it means that you have killed that person, right?"

"!"

Toosaka Rin, who eavesdropped on their conversation, was shocked: Was Rod killed! ?

Impossible... This kind of thing is absolutely impossible...

The little shoulders began to tremble violently, and Rin suddenly felt a cramp in her abdomen.

This is because nervous stomach pain is caused by psychological factors such as sudden excessive stress, bad mood, mental tension, etc.

Until now, Rin had never imagined a future in which Rod was killed.

He was the magus who won the first victory in the 240-year history of the Holy Grail War.

It was not until now that Rin realized how much she trusted that person.

Why was she still so calm even though London had already fallen and she had been kidnapped by a strange woman and taken to such a place?

The answer is obvious.
