Magician in Type-Moon

But it’s also expected.

Although there have been speculations for a long time.

But unexpectedly, after 2300 years, the knowledge and records engraved in the Great Library of Alexandria, in addition to the birth of thought, actually generated corresponding emotions.

The plan described by Ptolemy is indeed real and has been in the works for 2300 years.

But it still can't escape the fact that this was just a lie used to deceive these alchemists.

Because Ptolemy's true purpose was not to save the world at all.

If the interior of the Great Library of Alexandria only contains logical thinking, then the underlying purpose and motivation should not be considered.

They should only assess the feasibility of this plan.

But the current situation is a complete reversal.

So, are we going to flip the table?

Matou Ike pondered, then looked at Meastia, who had been talking to Medea since the beginning.

Meastia seemed to notice Matou Ike's gaze as well, and he nodded.

Just as they were preparing to fulfill the deal they had just made with Medea.

Ptolemy spoke:

“The young master was forced to stay away from reading from a young age. But his language talent is astonishingly outstanding. I just want to prepare a library for him that he can never finish reading no matter how much he reads.”

They actually said it...

What a foolish motive!

It's so stupid it's unbelievable.

A profound silence fell over the entire fourth tier.

"That's right, that's why this guy teamed up with us in the first place."

Kiz suddenly spoke up, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.

"Alexander IV was born after the death of Alexander the Great, and his position among his ministers was very unstable. Some people doubted that he was not Iskandar's son, while others argued that he was unsuitable to be the king of Macedon because his mother was from the East."

This magician of the wandering sea seems to have a great deal of knowledge about the secrets of history.

The scene he described easily comes to mind.

Facing his newborn child, Iskandar's courtiers, who had once fought side by side, were engaged in a period of infighting and strife.

This is what was previously referred to as the "Successor Wars".

"As a result, after several divisions and conflicts, Alexander IV was enthroned by Iskandar's mother—Alexander IV's grandmother Olympias. However, he was later imprisoned by his successor, Cassander, who established his own dynasty."

Among the successors, Cassander appears to harbor a deep hatred for the old monarchy; one account suggests he kept Alexander IV away from all literature, forbidding him from reading.

This is the second time Matouchi has heard this claim. The first time was from Wilhelm Velvet, a die-hard fan of Alexander the Great.

Matouike is not averse to this kind of historical knowledge with mysterious symbolism, which may provide inspiration for the development of magic at some point.

He also heard an interesting piece of information from Webber Velvet.

That is, Alexander IV was perhaps a language genius who could understand anything without needing anyone to teach him to read and write.

She looks exactly like Genmura Satsuki; this is the talent of a language unifier.

The means of prohibiting him from reading were less out of hatred and more out of fear of his talent.

Ptolemy was certainly well aware of this matter.

After Kiz finished speaking, Ptolemy looked back at the illusory figures.

“He is right. That is why I tricked you into building this great library. I have just told you everything. Now you can judge for yourselves.”

After Ptolemy finished speaking, bursts of light flashed from the phantoms.

The sound, similar to a broadcast announcement, once again emanated from the fourth floor of the Great Library of Alexandria.

"Two solutions have been collected... Two solutions have been collected... Evaluating... Evaluating... Insufficient computing power... Insufficient computing power... Difficult to evaluate... Difficult to evaluate"

Just like a computer freezing, the broadcast sound appeared intermittently.

However, Ptolemy's explanation seemed to have resolved the crisis of trust.

If things reach a stalemate, then everything will depend on Matouchi's progress in eroding the Blood Moon.

Everyone present understood this, so Meastia did not act rashly.

After all, the benefits of overturning the table far outweigh the losses.

In the one or two seconds that Meastia hesitated.

Surrounding Ptolemy are crystal books that gleam with a blue light.

And surrounding Tsbia are crystal books that gleam with a reddish light.

They began to converge and then entered Elgo's body, which was shrouded in black miasma.

Because Shion was standing right next to Elgo, she was almost knocked away.

Went crazy.

Like the guardians of the third tier, they went berserk.

The last time it went berserk was because of a conspiracy orchestrated by Ptolemy during his lifetime.

This time, it was a rampage of collective thinking within the Great Library of Alexandria.

And what do they want to do right now?

Everyone knows the truth.

Kurrids's experiment was restarted.

However, the computing power within Elgo, who had transformed into the final calculator, was entirely used for the plan that Tsbia and Ptolemy had explained to them.

We want to completely simulate it.

Instead of starting from scratch to calculate a rough solution.

Having obtained two feasible solutions, these alchemists from the Atlas Institute were ready to take a gamble.

A large number of bubbles rose from the ground again.

The underwater volcano, which served as a spiritual vein, also began to boil again.

The floor began to vibrate as the earth's crust moved.

The temperature emanating from the ground is like the underfloor heating installed in homes in cold regions.

Looks like the Mediterranean is going to be bombed again today.

The worse news is that these alchemists from the Atlas Institute do not seem to have revealed the model of salvation they were going to simulate to the others present.

This means that everyone gets nothing in return, and they also have to sacrifice some of their own interests to fulfill their vision.

That's just ridiculous.

Didn't you see that Latio shared her computing power with everyone so that no one would rebel against her?

This allowed everyone to see their own proposed solution.

Do you even know what sharing means?

No wonder he's incompetent!

Matou Ike mentally complained, all the emotion he had felt earlier had vanished completely.

In essence, he is still the kind of creature driven by self-interest.

Then he called out to Medea, who was standing next to her:

"Measita, let's begin!"

Chapter 430 Disaster

Matou Ike's purpose in organizing the actions of the alchemists dispatched by the Atlas Institute at this moment could certainly not be solely due to this.

After all, if he could really simulate a way to "avoid the destruction of the world," it wouldn't do him any harm.

The reason for the current trouble is simply because if things continue to develop in this way...

Since Elgo and the part of the divine body in the coffin were important components of these two plans.

Therefore, the consumables for this calculation cannot be those two items.

So what could it be?

It's easy to guess what's left here that could be used as a battery.

At Matouchi's call, Meastia took action.

He once again took out the supreme ceremonial attire belonging to the Meastia family, "Negation of Uniqueness".

After a long wait, this costume has been fully charged.

This ceremonial attire, based on the concept of "projection," combines the "change" characteristic of the Mayastia monarch with the attributes of earth and air.

How thoughtful! Right next to Matou Pond, those iridescent bubbles reappeared.

It is a spacetime bubble.

As the bubbles gathered together in front of him gradually twisted into a "door" similar to the one he had seen when he first arrived here, Matou Ike frowned slightly.

His gaze shifted to Meastia:

Can you still specify coordinates now?

Meastia scratched his head, a hint of helplessness on his face:

"The secondary key that Cypher left behind has expired, so it won't work."

After receiving a negative answer, Matouchi looked at Wuzhiqi.

"You must have come in from the underwater volcano, right?"

Matou Ike spoke with a certainty. Since his battle with Night Raid, he had gained the ability to sense the approximate location of Elgo.
