Chapter 416

~9 min read 1,624 words

The Shang and Zhou periods, also known as the Investiture of the Gods period, are also known as the Age of God-Hiding in the Eastern magic world.】

At that time, because King Zhou of Shang, Di Xin, favored the demon concubine Daji, indulged in wine and sex, and levied heavy taxes, the various princes led by Zhou Wenwang, Ji Chang, formed an army to conquer Zhou and rebelled against Shang.】

The warlocks at that time were not like now, where everyone is unknown in the name of seclusion; instead, they were exceptionally active, and every prince had one or two under his command.】

As the dynasty at that time, the Shang Dynasty possessed a large number of warlocks. Led by Grand Master Wen, a large number of generals and warriors could almost perform one or two Taoist arts and held a few magic treasures.】

That was not just a struggle for royal power, but a struggle between warlocks. I don't know how many capable people fell in that period; it can be called the darkest period in the Eastern warlock world.】

Since the Investiture of the Gods, the Eastern warlock world has gradually disappeared, rarely appearing in front of people, and no longer interfering in any struggle for royal power.】

Conqueror: "So this person likes cows; then I have a common language with him."】

Extra Feng Xi: "And then take the opportunity to invite him to join your command, right?"】

Conqueror: "Hahaha, you understand me too."】

Caules: "It's too pit-like; clearly having a mount but not letting it out."】

Achilles: "Who told you that a Rider must use a mount when fighting? Look at me; I rarely use a chariot when fighting."】

【C: Nine-Patterned Dragon Elizabeth, Class: Pretender.】

【Elizabeth Bathory, a mixed Heroic Spirit born from the spiritual base fusion with Shi Jin, the Nine-Patterned Dragon, one of the Liang Shan heroes.】

【Borrowing the identity of Shi Jin as the first Liang Shan hero to appear in 'Water Margin', Nine-Patterned Dragon Elizabeth successfully usurped several skills that only the two Liang Shan Marsh bosses, Song Jiang and Chao Gai, possessed.】

Group members: "???"】

Waver: "Pretender? How is it another class I haven't heard of?"】

Caules: "Good guy, besides the seven classes, how many classes are there?"】

Rin Tohsaka: "Uh, we know Elizabeth, but what the hell is this Nine-Patterned Dragon?"】

Extra Feng Xi: "Haven't you read 'Water Margin'? It's one of the Liang Shan heroes."】

Waver: "Uh, I've only heard the name of this book, but I haven't really read it."】

Kayneth: "Cough, cough, I don't know either."】

Rin Tohsaka: "Although I have read 'Water Margin', there are too many characters in it, and I don't know much about it."】

Extra Feng Xi: "'Water Margin' tells the story of a group of Jianghu outlaws who gathered in a place called Liang Shan Marsh to rebel, then accepted the imperial court's amnesty, conquered in all directions, and finally suffered countless casualties and scattered."】

Extra Feng Xi: "Liang Shan has a total of 108 generals, known as the 108 Heavenly and Earthly Stars. They are not all good people; there are also vicious people who kill without blinking."】

Extra Feng Xi: "Nine-Patterned Dragon Shi Jin is the first character to appear among the 108 generals in 'Water Margin', but he is not the protagonist. Later, he directly became a minor role, but his martial arts are not low, so he ranks 23rd among the 108 generals."】

Shirou Kotomine: "I see. Although not the protagonist, because he is the first character to appear, there is still room for manipulation."】

Achilles: "What do you mean?"】

Shirou Kotomine: "When people read books, they have the habit of treating the first character to appear as the protagonist, so Shi Jin should also bear the protagonist's halo. It's not a real protagonist's halo, but a pseudo-protagonist's halo added by the reader's subconscious."】

Empress: "I see. By relying on a fake halo, she usurped the true protagonist's ability."】

Caules: "Is there such an operation?"】

Shishigou Kairi: "To be able to do this. That legendary witch Elizabeth, is her magic strength so high?"】

Waver: "Hehe, if it wasn't high, how could she pick up the Holy Grail?"】

【D: Jiang Ziya, Class: Rider.】

【Surname Jiang, clan Lü, name Shang, courtesy name Ziya, nickname Feixiong, also known as Taigong Wang, Jiang Taigong.】

【The military strategist of the Zhou Dynasty during the Shang and Zhou periods, and also a disciple of the immortal Primordial Heaven, who launched an executor activity called 'Investiture of the Gods' against the backdrop of the war at the end of the Yin Dynasty, involving a large number of people and rituals.】

【In the end, he helped Zhou Wenwang and King Wu of Zhou overthrow the Shang Dynasty, and after enshrinement of the gods, he disappeared. It is said that the later Qi royal family were his descendants.】

【Jiang Taigong is a candidate for Crown Rider, and also a candidate for Crown Caster. He can freely control mythical-level fantasy species, but for some reason, he just cannot control dragon species.】

Rin Tohsaka: "Hmm, this is the Jiang Taigong mentioned in the introduction earlier!"】

Qin Qin Shi Huang: "The legendary Jiang Ziya..."】

Waver: "I remember Jiang Taigong was eighty years old when he took office; how could he be so young?"】

Conqueror: "Heroic Spirit, isn't it normal to appear at different ages?"】

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "As expected of the famous Taigong Wang, he is actually a double Crown candidate."】

Zhang Jiao: "Does it mean this person has reached two peaks?"】

Waver: "Although this is not a Crown, the gold content is no less than a Crown."】

Grand Duke: "Amazing, is this the foundation of the legendary Eastern Great Power?"】

【The correct options are B and D.】

【Congratulations to Waver, Extra Feng Xi, Heroic King, Artoria, Conqueror, Diarmuid, Hundred-Faced Hassan, Emiya Kiritsugu, Rin Tohsaka, El-Melloi II, Qin Qin Shi Huang, Shirou Kotomine, Fiore, Atalanta, Empress, and Professor for all choosing correctly, receiving 5 Saint Quartz.】

It seems that other teams chose to disperse their choices, at least allowing a few people to choose correctly.】

【In this quiz, Extra Feng Xi has the highest winning rate, Shirou Kotomine second, Waver, Heroic King, Artoria, Conqueror, Diarmuid, Hundred-Faced Hassan, Emiya Kiritsugu, Rin Tohsaka, El-Melloi II, Qin Qin Shi Huang, Fiore, Atalanta, Empress, and Professor third, rewarding one gold, silver, and bronze treasure chest respectively.】

【Today's quiz is over, continue tomorrow.】

Everyone hadn't recovered from the Eastern special session Heroic Spirits, and the quiz ended quickly.】

With a flash of light, the treasure chests were also distributed to each person.】

In Extra Feng Xi's team, except for the gold treasure chest obtained by Extra Feng Xi, everyone received a bronze treasure chest.】

After opening it, sure enough, it is too difficult for the bronze treasure chest to produce good things.】

Today, it was like opening a pharmacy; Artoria, Qin Qin Shi Huang, and the six servants all opened six bottles of potions.】

Two bottles of recovery potions, two bottles of healing potions, and one bottle each of strength potion and magic potion.】

Well, having is better than nothing, right? It's better than opening useless magic crafts.】

Extra Feng Xi also opened his gold treasure chest and opened a face he couldn't be more familiar with.】

Magic Craft - Samadhi True Fire.】

Like the Wind and Cloud Fairy, it belongs to one of the Journey to the West series.】

However, unlike the Wind and Cloud Fairy, Samadhi True Fire has two abilities.】

First, it can increase the power of his fire magic, and even turn it into real Samadhi True Fire.】

Extra Feng Xi, who had learned Flame Lodging, could originally summon Samadhi True Fire, but using this magic craft could double the power of Samadhi True Fire.】

This magic craft is really a perfect match for Extra Feng Xi.】

The second ability is the same as the Wind and Cloud Fairy, summoning the Dharma image of the character 'Red Boy' on the magic craft to attack.】

However, why is this Red Boy so Mo-like?】

Isn't this nonsense? This is originally Red Boy played by Mo.】

I just don't know what expression Mo will have when she sees Red Boy being summoned.】

"Okay, we should talk about the itinerary for tonight."】

The opening box session ended, and Extra Feng Xi looked at the servants with a serious face.】

"Hahaha, it seems you are ready to take the initiative."】

The Conqueror understood Extra Feng Xi's mind at a glance and was eager to try.】

Extra Feng Xi: "Of course, if you get beaten, you naturally have to hit back."】

Artoria said seriously: "Then, which side are we going to attack today?"】

Now the lairs of both the Black and Red sides have been exposed, but it is impossible to divide troops to attack both, which is too passive.】

"Tonight, we will first attack the Black side and solve that traitor Bluebeard."】

Extra Feng Xi's eyes flashed with cold light, and a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.】

His return gift is coming; I don't know if Darnic and Shirou Kotomine can take it.】

At the same time, Yggdmillennia Castle.】

"Oh, what a pity, are there no children's corpses?"】

In the pile of homunculi, Bluebeard was using the Prelati's Spellbook to sacrifice these abandoned homunculi with a disappointed face, summoning one sea monster after another.】

Darnic himself knew clearly that after what happened last night, Extra Feng Xi would definitely not let it go.】

The strength of the Black side has been exposed too much, and the combat power is the weakest; now he must use every means to increase combat power.】

Their Yggdmillennia lacks everything, but they don't lack homunculi.】

Let these dead homunculi exert their final value.】
