One man’s Chaldea

Maintaining a normal speed, the two-legged flying dragon glided downwards. When it was close to the ground, Lin Qi jumped down and landed steadily on the ground.
The wyvern adjusted its direction and flew back into the sky.
Lin Qi trotted into the tent, without speaking to anyone, and began hurriedly writing and drawing on the map in the middle.
Lin Qi didn’t breathe a sigh of relief until everything was settled.
There was no other way. This kind of memory was time-limited, and Lin Qi was not a genius. He could only move to the map immediately after memorizing it.
After Lin Qi finished his work, Nero finally spoke:
“Hmm! My guards are really versatile! They can even fly into the sky for reconnaissance. What on earth do you think I don’t know?”
At the same time, he picked up the marked map on the table with satisfaction.
“My usefulness ends here. There’s nothing else I can hide…”
Lin Qi looked like he was burned out.
At this moment, several days had passed since the combat meeting.
During this period, Lin Qi held several positions, not only serving as Nero’s bodyguard.
It also undertakes some logistics and reconnaissance work.
Although Jing Ke has the skill of blocking breath in terms of reconnaissance, she cannot fly and her reconnaissance efficiency is ultimately not as good as Lin Qi’s.
So after learning that Lin Qi also had the ability to fly, Nero gave Lin Qi this job.
As for logistics.
Rather than logistics, it is more like military logistics.
Nero felt that the normal pace of advancing the front was too slow, so he wanted to improve the efficiency.
I just remembered that Lin Qi had used the explosion of the black key to kill many allied troops attacking the city.
Nero then had a flash of inspiration and asked Lin Qi whether there were any restrictions on the method of making the explosive black keys.
Lin Qi didn’t quite understand what Nero meant, and casually said that as long as the materials were available, it could be made at will.
Then the tragedy began.
In the next few days, apart from reconnaissance, Lin Qi stayed in the tent making various explosive weapons.
In theory, rune magic can only exert its greatest power when carved on wooden objects.
But Lin Qi took a different approach. With his own magic skills, carving on wood wouldn’t increase its power much anyway.
Then why not engrave it directly on the iron weapon?
The weapon itself can also be blown into pieces during the explosion, and the flying weapon fragments can be used to attack the enemy.
So Rune’s magic version of the fragmentation grenade appeared in Lin Qi’s hands.
When you don’t want it to explode, it’s also good to use it as a melee weapon.
Lin Qi doesn’t have that many black keys, and a small number of grenades cannot affect the battle situation.
So Nero sent people to collect broken and unused weapons – preferably rusty ones.
As the soldiers moved, piles of weapons were placed in front of Lin Qi.
Lin Qi had no choice but to draw repetitive runes on a pile of broken weapons.
It’s another past that I don’t want to recall.
Fortunately, the effect is really good. Ever since Nero used the magic version of the fragmentation grenade tactic, the battle situation has been one-sided in Nero’s favor.
In addition, Lin Qi would occasionally ride on a wyvern to send “airdrops” to the opponent.
In just a few days, half of the Roman territory was recovered.
They fought their way to Gaul.
Back to the present.
“Is that so? But even if that’s the case, the combination of you and me is simply a match made in heaven. How can the Roman Pseudo-Emperor Alliance be a match for us?”
“Hehe, it will only take a few days for us to reach the enemy’s base camp!”
Nero patted Lin Qi on the back with a proud look on his face.
“Your Majesty, it doesn’t matter how many ordinary soldiers there are, but the key lies in the Servants. Now that we have reached this point, the enemy will probably send Servants to the battlefield.”
Lin Qi doesn’t think his magic grenade can work on servants.
“Of course I know this, so from now on you don’t have to make those equipment anymore, just follow me obediently!”
Nero said confidently.
“As the saying goes, king versus king, general versus general, the fight has come to this point, and it’s time for me to take action myself.”
“We must defeat the Pseudo-Emperor’s coalition forces as quickly as possible and not give them a chance to react!”
With such sufficient combat power, Nero finally got rid of the anger he had suffered from the previous suppression.
……
I also read some of the stories about Jotaro challenging FGO, and I felt that the fighting abilities of both sides were truly outrageous.
I once glanced at dozens of chapters, but when I read them after I started writing the book, I found them even more outrageous.
Jotaro used Star Platinum + Ripple to push back the beam cannon of Hei Dai…2
Just from this one scene, I know that my criteria for assessing the combat effectiveness of both sides is completely different from that in the book.
Moreover, that book overestimates the combat effectiveness of the Demon Pillar. The combined power of its three first-rate servants is even more powerful than that of Hei Dai’s light cannon.
But from the plot of FGO that I have seen, it is just that the Demon Pillar needs multiple servants to be defeated – and sometimes the quality of the multiple servants is not even high.
Later, there was a time when Arjuna killed several demon pillars with a single self-destruction.
In fact, readers who have read the plot of fgo and watched related anime should be able to see this.
Type-Moon actually holds Excalibur, the savior holy sword, in very high regard. Without involving some inexplicable existence, Excalibur is the top-level Noble Phantasm. In terms of the output power released at one time, there are few that are stronger than it.
Moreover, there is no sign of Excalibur being fully released yet.
Didn’t you see that even Goetia’s large aperture was described using Excalibur’s normal output?
Excalibur is a Noble Phantasm that can basically decide the outcome once it is revealed!
From this we can see that as long as the output can keep up with Excalibur, this servant is incredibly strong, and only a few servants with defensive Noble Phantasms can properly block it.
So from my understanding, as long as you can fire a high-intensity light cannon of level A or above (some of the levels of the treasures in the game seem to be randomly filled), it is not a problem to fight a demon pillar alone. If the level of the light cannon is high enough, it is also easy to kill more demon pillars with one shot.
Because it has done enough.
It’s like humans can’t beat tigers and lions head-on, but what if they have a shotgun in their hands or launch a missile from a distance?
It only takes one or two Noble Phantasms for Hei Dai to kill a Flauros. Even if he doesn’t use Noble Phantasms normally, he may not be as good as the Demon Pillar, but as long as he uses Noble Phantasms, he can win.
My understanding of combat power is as simple as this. Apart from the strange mechanism, as long as you put in enough effort, you can win.
As a reader, Jotaro’s book is indeed very good, but the fighting power is too outrageous, and there are all kinds of unexpected plots. I think it is a miracle that the author can make it work.
Chapter 22 [Incitement]
“Report to His Majesty the Emperor! The small force led by Nero, the self-proclaimed emperor, is attacking this place at an alarming speed!”
The alliance soldiers reported to Caesar.
“I’m afraid that the special enemy general you mentioned is among them, which is why we were able to break through so quickly!”
“Yeah……”
Caesar looked into the distance.
In just a short while, Lu Bu and Spartacus had already rushed all the way to a position where he could easily see them.
Both of them were over two meters tall and their width was much wider than others, making them quite eye-catching among the group of thin Alliance soldiers.
From a distance, the two Berserkers looked like bulldozers driving into the battlefield.
Wherever they went, limbs flew everywhere, soldiers were chopped into the sky, and all that was left along the way was a blood-stained “runway”.
Plus the “grenades” thrown from the enemy’s battle array from time to time…
Tsk tsk, how miserable it is.
“The destructive power of those two Berserkers is truly astonishing. If we don’t contain them first, it might be detrimental to the implementation of our plan…”
Caesar muttered to himself.
“In that case, let’s ask General Leonidas to go. His ability should be enough to hold those two guys back.”
Caesar ordered his soldiers to inform Leonidas.
After receiving the communication from the soldiers, Leonidas I just said “I know” and went straight to the two berserkers.
After actually encountering the two berserkers, Leonidas I remained silent.
Even though his actions were restricted, his mind was still there. How could he be left alone to deal with two such beings…
He looked at two figures who were much taller than him, each as wide as two of him.
The corner of Leonidas I’s eye twitched slightly.
But now I have no choice but to go ahead with it.
Leonidas I tightened his spear and shield in his hands and went forward resolutely.
The two Berserkers had already discovered his presence.
The three Servants fought in a group as if running in two directions.
“Yeah, now we just have to wait for them to get to me!”
Looking at Leonidas I who had temporarily restrained Lu Bu and Spartacus, Caesar nodded with satisfaction.
the other side.
“Oh? Who is that heroic spirit that can hold back my two generals?”
Nero, who was fighting in the battlefield, looked at the battle over there in surprise.
The duel between servants was quite terrifying for humans, but in a short while, a circular no-man’s land was cleared near the battle group of three servants.
The noise of the battle was huge, and from time to time you could see all kinds of debris flying in the sky.
“Leonidas is a Heroic Spirit who is very good at defense. I don’t think Spartacus and the others will be able to help us for a while.”
Lin Qi used Rune magic to burn a dozen Allied soldiers to death, and then looked from a distance.
He immediately recognized the other person’s identity from the iconic “flaming head”.
“Hmm! It seems that the key to victory lies in Ru and Yu!”
Nero didn’t seem to be worried, instead he looked happy.
“That’s not wrong… The one in front should be Caesar. As long as we deal with him, it will only be a matter of time before we take over Gaul.”
With the help of Rune’s farsightedness, Lin Qi keenly saw Caesar standing on a small earthen slope with no signs of retreating.
“Very good! Let us take down the enemy leader in one fell swoop! And let me see how cool and handsome the present Caesar is!”
According to historical records, Caesar was a handsome man.
“Well, I think your Majesty might be surprised…”
“Why?”
“It’s hard for me to say. Your Majesty will know once he has seen it.”
This is Type-Moon’s bad taste. Many male characters in serious history have become females, and in addition, many characters have been changed.
Julius Caesar happened to be among them.
With the combined efforts of Lin Qi and Nero, they pierced through the alliance’s army in a short while and reached Caesar.
The battles between Servants are not something that ordinary people can participate in.
Both sides simultaneously moved their soldiers away from the new battlefield, leaving a large open space.
Used in battles between both sides.
