Yao Guang-Chaldea Headquarters.

Morgan looked at the bright light of Sword of Promised Victory in the Light Screen image, his eyes blank, and the shock in his heart was already written in those beautiful, wide-open eyes.

"Is this... the brilliance of King Arthur... it's really... so dazzling..."

While muttering, his eyes subconsciously turned to Artoria beside him.

Although I have known for a long time that Artoria is suspected to be the reincarnation of King Arthur, but because she is the younger sister I have seen since childhood, I have never really felt it. I just have a sense of 'ah, my sister has become so powerful, and I am very happy to be a sister'.

Even in the Light Screen video, because the other party is his 'sister', there is never much realism. After all, Saber shows that she is at best a relatively good warrior and transcendent.

However, at this moment, that golden brilliance truly made Morgan feel the glory of King Arthur, the majesty of King Arthur, and the power of King Arthur for the first time.

It is the mark of an era, the glory of Britain, and the star of hope.

Because, in the era when King Arthur exists, Britain has been suffering from natural and man-made disasters. It is an era with no hope, and it is a desperate era that represents the imminent demise and extinction of ancient Britain.

But in that dark age of despair, King Arthur appeared, leading the ancient Britain, who had no hope or future at all, and even though foreigners had invaded the mainland, were still in civil strife and constantly attacking each other, to unify.

From that moment on, the progress bar of Gu Britain that kept sliding down to Abyss was abruptly stopped, and it embarked on unprecedented glory.

That is hope, a torch, an honor, and a bright beginning.

I have to say that the ancient Britain people in this world were lucky. Because the world is different, the ending of King Arthur is also different.

He did not die in Battle of Camlann, but survived after the war, and with the help of Knights of the Round Table and other subjects who were also awakened, he moved the country from a state of war to a state of defense. It took eight years to stabilize the basic market and cultivate a qualified successor. Only then did Camelot pass away with a stable mind.

Although the later Camelot changed from Kingdom of Camelot to the British Empire in the changing times, it also attracted many foreigners to join and became a multi-ethnic country.

But the main body of the Celts still exists and dominates, and has not died out like the other world.

Therefore, for Britain in this world, King Arthur is not only a legend, but also the greatest and most important legend.

Countless people grew up listening to the legend of King Arthur, just like Flame Kingdom people grew up listening to the stories of Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han.

What it represents is the most important part of a civilization.

Even Morgan has been admiring and learning from King Arthur since childhood, and is determined to become the person who saves and changes Holy Britannia like King Arthur.

Although this vision has been somewhat compromised because my sister has become the reincarnation of King Arthur, my heart has never changed.

Now that she truly saw the brilliance of the Sword of Promised Victory that represented the glory of King Arthur, and witnessed the majesty of the king of Red Dragon of Britain, she suddenly realized that the King Arthur in the Light Screen image was indeed King Arthur, without a trace of falsehood, the King of Eternity that brought hope and future to the ancient Britain.

Just like the greatest romantic epic, with the miracle of Holy Grail War, the light of hope that originally belonged only to the dark ages has been brought to modern society and to everyone in the world.

In an instant, Morgan realized that Britain must have fallen into a super fanatical state at this moment, and countless people must be shouting the name of King Arthur.

This king is no longer an ancient person who traveled from ancient times, but is the light of hope that illuminates the dark age just like she did more than 1,600 years ago.

Nowadays, Mystery has been raging all over the world for decades. Hundreds of millions of people have died in the Mystery disaster. Now, in this era full of despair and madness, is it not like the Dark Ages 1,600 years ago?

When Saber shows her brilliance in the Light Screen image, people can't help but think of Artoria as the reincarnation of King Arthur, and naturally transfer their admiration and expectations for King Arthur to Artoria as the reincarnation of King Arthur.

Thinking with the soles of his feet, Morgan can imagine that at this moment, there must be countless people in the country shouting the name of King Arthur, and at the same time, they also hope that Artoria, the reincarnation of King Arthur, will sit on the supreme throne and lead the Britain people to greatness again with that bright and holy brilliance.

Yes, driven by fanaticism, what people long for is not just for Artoria to sit on the throne, but also for Artoria to become a real emperor, rather than a symbol or a mascot.

By then, there will inevitably be a lot of power struggles and boring internal strife.

Don't doubt, those politicians and powerful people can really do these things, Morgan knows this all too well.

However, Morgan is not worried about this, because Artoria has never thought about going back to be the emperor. Girls nowadays have long been aware of it. From this point of view, Artoria is also very smart. From the beginning, he decided to stay with Yingzhou and ignore those Yingying dogs.

These ideas actually take less than ten seconds, but Morgan's brainstorming is relatively large, so he thinks more.

Others also came back to reality one after another from the brilliant and dazzling brilliance. Kayneth pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose. "Is this the power of Noble Phantasm to liberate his true name? It is really strong, and what it represents is also very touching. It is really amazing, King Arthur..."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "With that kind of power, if it were launched not towards the sky but towards the city, it would definitely cause a wide range of damage."

Artoria nodded. "Yes, that is undoubtedly the top Noble Phantasm. It has great destructive power."

At this moment, Artoria was silent all the time. As his assistant, Miss Baal spoke up, "I think the power of Sword of Promised Victory is much smaller than expected. Compared with the previous It was used when the fifth-level Mystery was eliminated for the first time. The Sword of Promised Victory used by King Arthur in the Light Screen image is as different as a spark competing for the glory of the sun and the moon."

Hearing this, everyone looked at Artoria with shock in their eyes.

The Sword of Promised Victory used by Saber was not powerful enough. How powerful was the attack Artoria used?

Everyone at the scene knew that Artoria once eliminated the fifth-level Mystery, but not many knew the details of how it was done. Now it seems that the same method as Artoria was used to liberate Noble Phantasm's real name.

As the director, Murata Himeko thought for a moment and nodded, "That's true. Artoria eliminated level five Mystery last time. When Star Corruptor was used, the power it erupted was far greater than the Noble Phantasm used by King Arthur in the Light Screen image. According to the information, they should all be Sword of Promised Victory, right? How could there be such a big gap in power?"

While speaking, she also looked at Artoria, wanting to find the answer from him.

Artoria nodded and said, "It is natural that there is a gap, because the Sword of Promised Victory liberated by the king only has a small part of the power of the Holy Sword. Although I don't know the specific situation, when I used it that time, I was actually able to use it because of the power left by King Arthur."

"Moreover, it is only this one opportunity to use it. The Holy Sword that was liberated that time is in its complete form, with thirteen seals on it. Only by fully opening the power of the seals can the power of Holy Sword be truly liberated."

"I don't know exactly why there is a seal. However, based on my experience when using Holy Sword, the power of Holy Sword is really too powerful. Maybe the king left the seal because he was afraid that the power of Holy Sword would bring unnecessary destruction to the world."

After listening to Artoria's words, everyone suddenly understood, but more doubts arose.

After all, this explanation is too general and the specific situation is completely unclear.

Murata Himeko After thinking for a moment, he asked Su Yun: "Advisor Su, you have seen and heard the situation. Do you know what happened to that Holy Sword?"

Su Yun: "Well, let me take a look... the information is unlocked, I can see it, um... there is an unexpected amount of information, hiss~~ it turns out to be like this..."

A seemingly surprised voice sounded, undoubtedly conveying the emotional feedback of a young man after receiving a large amount of shocking information.

Full marks for his acting skills, it would be a pity not to win the Best Actor Award.

Everyone's curiosity was aroused, but there was no urging. Murata Himeko signaled everyone to wait for Su Yun to digest the information, showing the qualities of a good boss who is considerate of the employees' mood.

After a while, Su Yun seemed to have calmed down, and spoke amidst the curious eyes of Emiya Shirou and Tohsaka Rin, as well as the impatient expectations of a group of people from Yao Guang-Chaldea.

"The situation is the same as what Lia said. It was King Arthur who was afraid of the huge power of the sword and the damage it would cause to the planet, so she added the seal. She and her twelve Knights of the Round Tables blessed it together. Each seal represents a 'promise'."

"The technique was created by Merlin. After all, King Arthur and Twelve Knights of the Round Table are not good at True Magic, but the great sage of Britain is the top True Magic master. It is not surprising that he can do this."

When everyone heard this, they were instantly enlightened, and because of King Arthur, everyone also knew who Merlin was.

The sage of ancient Britain, the great master of True Magic, the teacher of King Arthur, the son of the dream demon, the theoretical immortal species, was finally imprisoned in Tower at the End of Paradise by the goblins because of some things, and endured eternal detention.

Originally, many of these stories were thought to be just stories processed by bards. However, now that we know that extraordinary power is real and Merlin is indeed a great magician, then Merlin's stories should also be true.

However, it is unknown whether Merlin is still alive and exists. After all, Merlin is an immortal species and it is possible to live from ancient times to the present.

Then, I heard Su Yun continue, "In addition, Noble Phantasm is also divided into levels. From the lowest level E level to A level are the regular levels. Above that there is an unmeasurable level EX, which represents the unknown."

"It cannot be measured, which means that the strength of this Noble Phantasm may be too high to be measured, and the power may be terrifying. Of course, it may also mean that it is very weak, but the power may fluctuate due to some reasons, so it is still classified as EX level."

"The Sword of Promised Victory used by King Arthur in the Light Screen image is an A++ grade Noble Phantasm due to the seal. Each + sign represents doubling the power when Noble Phantasm is liberated. A++ is the level of A++ multiplied by three."

"If expressed in numbers, E-level is the lowest 10, D-level is 20, C-level is 40, B-level is 60, and A-level is 80. Therefore, the low-level Noble Phantasm is not necessarily weaker than the high-level one,"

"In normal combat, the high-level Noble Phantasm will definitely have the advantage, whether it is toughness, sharpness or strength. However, when two Noble Phantasms release their true names, the low-level one may be stronger than the high-level one."

"Of course, when the level reaches EX level, it is impossible to measure. Maybe D-level Noble Phantasm can't beat it, but if it is a powerful type, even if A-level Noble Phantasm has many + numbers, theoretically it will be easily defeated."

"For example, if Sword of Promised Victory is also bombarded, the Sword of Promised Victory that has completely released the thirteen seals is undoubtedly EX level. The result of the bombardment is that the unsealed Sword of Promised Victory will be easily crushed and has no resistance."

"In addition, Noble Phantasm also has its own categories. Against people, against armies, against cities, against borders, Anti-Purification, etc. are its categories. Although it is a bit biased, it can be regarded as the power and nature of Noble Phantasm's true name of liberation."

"The Sword of Promised Victory that has not released the seal is the powerful Anti-City Noble Phantasm. If the seal is completely released, the Sword of Promised Victory is of an unknown type. However, it can be divided into the Noble Phantasm that targets the planet - the Noble Phantasm that targets the enemy of the planet!"

"This Holy Sword is made by fairies like the legend, but what gives fairies the ability to build Holy Sword is the planet itself, which represents the will of the planet under our feet to fight against invaders beyond the stars. It is Sword of Stars that holds the protection of Planetary Will!"

"This is the situation of Heroic Spirit Noble Phantasm. If Lia can continue to grow, sooner or later she will be able to get the real Sword of Promised Victory to recognize her again, and then Sword of Promised Victory will come back to her."

"As for more content, I can't see it. What I can see now is my current limit."

After listening to Su Yun's narration, everyone was shocked and their thoughts were running wild.

I won't go into details about the classification of Noble Phantasm. There is actually a brief narration in the Light Screen video. Although the specifics are not stated, everyone knows that there are classifications.

However, everyone's understanding of Sword of Promised Victory is that it is just like the legend that Holy Sword was created by goblins, but that's all.

Now it seems that I still underestimated this Holy Sword.

It's actually Sword of Stars created by the planet, and its quality has improved by more than one and a half stars.

Suddenly, people suddenly understood why Artoria was able to attack to that level last time when it encountered level five Mystery Star Corruptor. It turned out that this Holy Sword itself was used to fight against the enemies of the planet.

There is no doubt that for the planet itself, Mystery is definitely a foreign invader, so Sword of Stars can exert its true power.

In an instant, many well-informed people at the scene realized an extremely important piece of information, which also confirmed a truth that countless scientists have been debating, that is - where did Mystery come from?

The current mainstream idea is that Mystery is a mutation caused by the planet itself and something originating from outside the planet, and there are endless arguments about it.

But now that we have the planet's authoritative certification, we can stop this meaningless quarrel - Mystery is something from outside the planet.

Therefore, the existence of Mystery cannot be said to be Mystery Resurgence, but an invasion by Mystery!

An invasion of this planet from a foreign land!

Among all these thoughts, Artoria's heartbeat can't help but accelerate, and he is also full of expectations for the future, looking forward to the moment when he can actually get and use Sword of Promised Victory.

I have to say that although Sword in the Stone is also good, it is still far behind Sword of Promised Victory.

Then, at this moment, the voice of Su Yun sounded again.

"In addition, I also saw a message, which is the illusion I saw just now when Bluebeard was about to be eliminated. The girl who looks very similar to Lia is the legendary saint Joan of Arc."

When everyone heard this, many people were stunned, but they were not surprised, because when they saw the girl, based on Bluebeard's reaction, they could more or less guess the girl's identity.

It's just...

In an instant, many people's expressions became subtle, and they subconsciously glanced at Artoria's face and chest.

Well...

Although it was just a glimpse, it must be said that the difference in size was not as big as usual, and the maturity on the face was that of a young lady, a half-grown girl.

Although they are indeed similar, you can tell at a glance that they are not the same person, so...

Bluebeard is really blind!

At the same moment, Artoria's hair stood up, a nameless anger welled up, and he felt deeply humiliated and offended.

Seeing this, Morgan subconsciously reached out and touched Artoria's head, and said meaningfully, "Don't worry, Lia, I think you will definitely grow up, in every sense. After all, we are sisters."

As he spoke, he puffed out his chest slightly and expressed encouragement to Artoria.

Artoria: "..."

What's wrong with being more frustrated and depressed?

In fact, the same idea spread all over the world. People who guessed that the girl in the hallucination Bluebeard saw was Joan of Arc said that Bluebeard was really blind.

Although they are both beautiful girls with blond hair, and although they do look a bit alike, the difference in size between the two is so big that a passerby can clearly tell the difference between the two. How come Bluebeard is so obsessed with Joan of Arc, yet he can mistake them for each other?

Fortunately, this guy has a pair of frog eyes as big as ping pong balls, which makes him a perfect example of blindness.

If the real Joan of Arc knew about this, why not poke his eyes out? If he was so blind, why would he keep these scary eyes? Just get rid of them.

Today's first update is 5K words, and as expected there will be two more chapters, a total of 6K words, achieving the over-updated task of 11,000 words.

Thousands of powerful people are so terrifying!
