68, Night in Cachedes

Dreams are the concreteness of a person's subconscious mind, so after sneaking in, it is possible to see outrageous things.

Lu Mingfei didn't know what Hui Liyi thought, but at least Lu Mingfei himself had already done it to see all kinds of horror scenes flying in B-level horror movies. After he was done, he ran to a world of horror style like "The Curse of Blood" and "Devil's Soul".

I have even figured out what I want to do - for example, using the invincible iron fist of Platinum Star to blew all monsters and gods.

But Lu Mingfei never expected that he would see such a scene in front of him—

There are no such things as the expected dark medieval and bloody scenes.

Instead, it is a bustling metropolis with bright and beautiful spotlights.

After Lu Mingfei and Arii came to their senses, they arrived at a place where they seemed to be in a magnetic levitation train. Through the window, they could see the night view of the metropolis with dazzling people outside with their eyes aches.

A metropolis with a sense of science fiction - It seems that this is not true. It is displayed in the city in front of Lu Mingfei and various things like injected into the train. Although the first impression gives people a sci-fi-style feeling, if you think about it carefully, this level should be called "near future"...

Lu Mingfei couldn't help but see Ridley Scott's old movie "Blade Runner".

By the way, this feeling seems to be called...Cyber? Or is it Cyberpunk?

Lu Mingfei looked at the various mechanized characteristics that were more or less present on other passengers in the car, and couldn't help but think of this.

Lu Mingfei was completely unsure of the situation, so he could only hold Ai Liyi's hand tightly under the strange gazes of other people around him, silently found a position where he could see the outside scene and sat down.

Then wait for the support from Chaldeans.

After a fierce discussion in Chaldeans... the conclusion was unexpectedly and quickly.

Kadok first explained to Lu Mingfei that they almost disconnected from Lu Mingfei just now. Kadok did not boast about his brave performance, but simply explained the cause of the accident.

"In the process of deepening your contract with Elizabeth, we found the hidden problem. You are not connected with one person, but two people."

"There may be two reasons for this, either your previous contract was interfered by a third party, or there were two Elizabeth Bartori who appeared in the French special point, and the two Elizabeths were very close, so your previous contract with Elizabeth was signed in one go."

"What do you think is the case?"

Lu Mingfei thought about it, and two Charlemagne, two Mardas, and two Lu Mingze appeared in his mind... and decided to choose the second item.

The Chaldeans also thought so.

The Desperate Witch may be Elizabeth, but the Desperate Witch in the sky before was not the same person as the one Lu Mingfei picked up later.

I guess it is the difference between "Elizabeth in youth" and "Elizabeth in adulthood"?

On this basis, the Chaldean commands came up with a result.

As we all know, the heroic spirit zodiac is an existence that transcends time and space. Since the heroic spirits can be summoned in the past and present, they naturally may be summoned in the future.

It is generally believed that the same hero will not have the memory of the last time after continuous summoning.

But Elizabeth may be a special case.

For example—Yes

If an Elizabeth was once summoned in a cyberpunk-style future world, she retained the memory of that era and then qualified in this French special point again, then her dream would be like this style.

Chaldes guessed so much.

Then, by the way, the latest news situation here was sent to the Holy King-

To Chaldea's expectation, the Holy King and Charlemagne sent the same news almost at the same time.

"Ah, this is yes, it was in the Holy Grail War of the Moon in 203X."

As a result, are you two special cases that retain future memories?

The Holy King and Charlemagne thought it was surprisingly strange that Elizabeth could retain his memory.

Charlemagne continued to pretend to be stupid, and the Holy King briefly explained that he was in the distant future - to be precise, it was the Holy Grail War in a parallel world.

Commonly known as the "Holy Grail War of the Moon"

In that world, there was a battle for the universal wishing machine on the moon, 128 horse racing heroes and 128 electronic hackers.

After the severe decline of magic in that world, the result was that the "electronic hackers" of the new era inherited their essential identity as magicians.

That is a world of programmers = magicians.

The Holy Grail War, which was born on the moon, is actually not the physical one.

The entire moon in that world is equivalent to a super-large computer with a planetary scale. Electronic hackers convert their souls into code cities and sneak into it. They are selected and tested in a virtual world where a large number of NPCs live. Those who can successfully summon heroes will be qualified to participate in the Holy Grail War of the Moon and become the master of the Holy Grail War of the Moon.

This Moon Grail War has happened many times in that world. When the Holy King and Charlemagne were active, the Holy Grail War has ended several times. The latest one was between the three heroic kings, Red (Nero), Blue (Takimo) and White (Attira). In the end, it seems to have evolved into a super robot war with aliens at the parallel world level, but those things will not be mentioned for the time being.

Perhaps that's the story.

Because there are many participants, almost all the heroes participated in the Holy Grail War of the Moon, but there are very few existences that can carry that part of the memory.

Elizabeth naturally participated, and seemed to be unexpectedly active in it. Although according to what the Holy King knew, Elizabeth almost lost in the midfield every time.

"You are naturally not traveling to the world of the Holy Grail War of the Moon. It's just that Elizabeth retains the memories of that time, so her dream content is mixed with these elements. No matter how fancy it looks, what we have to do remains unchanged."

Da Vinci had a headache, she rubbed her temples and concluded:

"Although it's all messy, we just need to find Elizabeth in the dream and implant 'love and hope' for her, and then awaken her."

That's right.

No matter how fancy it is, this is just Elizabeth's dream.

Dreams cannot completely restore the things in the world of the Holy Grail of the Moon, as they will definitely be filled with Elizabeth's personal prejudice.

for example:

Lu Mingfei and Hui Liyi were carrying a virtual projection advertisement on the floating train together.

The content of the ad seems to be pulling out election votes or something.

There were three candidates, one was a red girl with a look similar to King Arthur Artoria, whose name was... Nero Claudius?

Is that famous Roman tyrant?

So you are a woman too?

Then there is the blue kimono fox girl Tamamomae, who was once again miserable... Oh no, this one was not made into a mother, this one was Chineseized in other games, and people were originally mothers.

The last white one is...Atira? Who? Wait! Could it be...that 'God Whip' Attira?

Fuck! Why is even you a woman?

Lu Mingfei began to seriously doubt whether the historians of the history of various countries in the world were blind.

If this continues, it is not surprising that even if someone tells Lu Mingfei that Master Sanzang is a woman.

Even if this campaign method makes Lu Mingfei feel that it is full of complaints and says it is an election, but the actual content is...

"Idol Election?" Lu Mingfei murmured in a low voice. Videos of the Japanese idol elections he had accidentally seen on video websites appeared in his mind.

Chaldes felt that this must have been contaminated by Elizabeth's own subjective ideas.

In Elizabeth's mind, is the idol = the president?

Lu Mingfei recalled the process of getting along with Elizabeth.

It is hard to imagine that Elizabeth, who recognizes the true scriptures, is actually such a person who lets himself go in his heart.

After listening to it, Lu Mingfei thought that the singing called Nero was quite nice... Although from the perspective of historical records, Nero should be the opposite type.

But the historians are blind and even with such a big breast can be said to be male, so their ears may also be deaf, so the record is wrong.

Shaking his head, Lu Mingfei took Huiliyi and got off the train.

“【Welcome to the city of Cachedes in the night】”

There are definitely many electronic sounds in science fiction works. This element is too classic. It makes Lu Mingfei feel a little familiar, a bit like the synthesis of beautiful girls from Vocaloid.

Hui Liyi looked around like a curious baby, stretching her neck from time to time, as if she wanted to approach the colorful shops around her, but she was afraid to leave Lu Mingfei.

Although it is all virtual, this may be the first time for Erie to ‘going out of the house’?

Where did you come from the young lady in the boudoir?

Lu Mingfei actually wanted to let Eliyi wander around like this, but unfortunately she couldn't do it. Although it was a spiritual world, time was synchronized with the outside world. Lu Mingfei had to hurry up and find Elizabeth. Only after waking Elizabeth could she find out the problem about the witch of despair from her...

There may be the key to defeating the Desperate Witch.

Lu Mingfei's eyes swept across various colorful billboards - because of the cyberpunk style, these advertisements are naturally virtual projections.

There are all kinds of messy things, most of which are related to the Scarlet Industry, so Lu Mingfei couldn't help but take a few more glances. Of course, Lu someone swears that he has no random thoughts, but just wants to find out the words that are related to Elizabeth.

Sure enough, I still have no clue.

I don't know where to start looking.

If you insist on saying that there is anything worth paying attention to on these messy billboards, perhaps in addition to the three idol campaign members, there are also famous women with the highest appearance rate.

It was a tall and plump mature woman who always wore a burgundy dress that looked almost bloody and had silver-gray hair.

All kinds of things about her are very frequent, so she should be an important local figure, right?

Because I couldn't understand the text here, and the translation machine in the spiritual world could not operate, Lu Mingfei could only take Huiliyi and stood stupidly in the middle of the road, waiting for the translation and intelligence analysis on the Chaldean side.

They stood stupidly and naturally attracted the attention of people around them. People looked at each other with strange eyes. Lu Mingfei had never felt it because he had experienced similar things.
To be continued...
