Chapter 228

"Wuwuwu, I finally found you guys!!!"

On the way into the Sanctuary, Lancermello had briefly exchanged names with the two Saints and learned some common sense about the Holy War. The first thing he saw when he entered the Sanctuary was not the temple buildings spiraling upwards on the mountains, but a swirling halo of magical power.

——Good news, she doesn’t have to look for world consciousness to commission.

——Bad news, there is a 100% probability that this time it will be a trouble of the same level as the whitewashing and re-editing of human affairs.

"I'll tell you after I finish talking to Athena." Lansemello followed the Saint who led her up the stairs that passed through all the palaces without looking away, and used the unique communication method of Restraint to avoid the Saints present and leave a message to the World Consciousness.

The world consciousness calmed down after hearing Lansemello's reply, but it still floated beside Lansemello and followed her to the palace above. During the holy war, the entire sanctuary was under strict alert, so Shion, who was originally responsible for introducing the situation to Lansemello, stayed in Aries Palace, leaving only Abelfica, who lived in Pisces Palace, to take Lansemello, who was invited to enter the sanctuary as a guest, to the Papal Palace.

"Your Holiness, I have brought the visitor Asclepius."

"It's just the Pope... Is Athena here busy with something else?" Lansemello held the sleeve of his robe and stood behind Aphrodite, who was kneeling on one knee to report to the Pope, while discussing the situation with the servants who were in a deep state of consciousness. "By the way, there is a divine dependency, but where is her servant, the goddess of victory Nike?"

"Who knows?" Asclepius's interest had been drawn to other places. "However, if it is a war between gods, there should be many interesting wounds..."

"Since this is the world where Athena is fighting Hades, I suspect Athena is busy targeting Hades." Ereshkigal paused for a moment and mentioned his sister unhappily, "Just like I would give Ishtar a backdoor, Hades cannot preach on earth, so it is likely that the same group of people are resurrected infinitely in the underworld - but Athena's people are really dead when they die."

"...Now we have Asclepius, he can help." Lansemello looked at the three servants he brought with him who fell silent in the depths of consciousness, and added in a subtle tone, "Even if the materials for the imitation medicine are insufficient, we should be able to find some by searching the stock in the Sanctuary... If that doesn't work, we still have my projection magic, right?"

"If you have a hobby of self-destruction, shut up." Asclepius sneered, "Even if it is a fake drug, it should not be wasted like this."

"Ahem." William cleared his throat, "I will communicate with them next?"

"...I think we may have to fight after all." Lansemello focused his attention on the outside world, while judging the possible development direction, "After all, I have already lifted all your seals - even if all the characteristics related to Asclepius are synchronized to the highest level... William's Order and Evil may be blocked, but Ereshkigal's divinity and attributes will definitely show through."

"As long as they don't mistake me for a member of the Pluto Army that has infiltrated Athena's sanctuary, it'll be fine." Lansemello's consciousness gradually returned to the surface from the depths, holding the snake staff and waiting for Aphrodite to finish reporting. "However, no matter what, it turns out that meeting Athena directly is the easiest and quickest way."

"What if they don't intend to fight you?" William asked.

"As long as we can reach a basis of mutual trust, showing our cards is also a necessary part of the negotiation." Lansemello smiled helplessly, "Besides, it would be more convenient to use the same power to fight for it rather than to suppress it with the opposite power, right? Although I didn't use the future vision, my luck in choosing the servant this time is indeed very good."

"Nice to meet you, Lord Asclepius. This is the first time you have intervened in the holy war between Lady Athena and Hades. Please allow me to remain vigilant." The Pope of the Sanctuary left the throne at the end of the hall and walked to Lansemero step by step. "Especially when your microcosm is mixed with the breath of the underworld."

"I knew she would never say anything nonsense about such aura and characteristics - after all, tuning magic is her talent and expertise." Two Casters and one Lancer in the depths of Lancer Mello's consciousness complained together.

"If I remember correctly, unless they are Hades warriors, even if they are resurrected by Hades, they will not carry the microcosm with the breath of Hades." A gray light flashed in Lansemello's eyes. The magician, whose attribute and origin is "Earth", calmly looked at the warrior in front of him who was about to attack. "But - Hades has never been the only lord of the underworld."

While the Pope of the Sanctuary was secretly accumulating strength - the white and gold robe turned into a black and gold long skirt, the characteristics of the God of Medicine began to weaken, and the oldest Lord of the Underworld and Lancermello synchronized, dyeing the silver-white long hair and golden-green eyes into the golden hair and golden eyes of the mistress of the underworld.

"Do you need me to prove it to you? Don't worry, you won't die." Ereshkigal's divine manifestation has overshadowed the divine existence of Asclepius, and the serpent staff has disappeared from Lansemelo's hand. The magician's empty eyes fell on the Pope, "There are seas in the sky and prisons on the earth—"

"...She was not joking when she said she could only flip the table." Asclepius, who had completely regained consciousness, choked the moment Lanthamiro drew out his magic power and tried to deploy his treasure. "By the way, did she just mobilize the spiritual veins here to amplify herself?"

"After all, this is the instinct of the 'Earth'." Ereshkigal, one of the gods of the underground, was quite tolerant of Lansemello, "But if you do this, you will probably attract Athena directly - after all, the 'spiritual vein' that belongs to you has been taken away by some unknown existence."

"If no one stops her, Ereshkigal's Noble Phantasm will be revealed." William, who had no chance to play a role in the negotiation, reminded the two.

"My heel is the wrath of Hades..."

A burst of peaceful magic interrupted Lancermelo's chant of his Noble Phantasm that was about to end. Athena personally intervened in the negotiation process before the battle between the two sides broke out completely.

"Although her microcosm carries the aura of the underworld, it is not that of a warrior of the underworld, nor does it belong to Hades - and that microcosm may be even older than the existence of Hades." Athena, whose voice was the only one that reached the Pope's Hall, made a judgment, "The microcosm that saved Aphrodite before is indeed consistent with the aura of the god of medicine Asclepius in the records."

Lansemello took off her attire as the mistress of the underworld and returned to her previous dark appearance that was in harmony with Asclepius. The Pope, who had been actively accumulating strength to try to attack Lansemello, also dispersed the strength he had accumulated. Aphrodite, who had been standing not far away, also became more natural in his posture.

"I am an outsider after all, so let me introduce myself first. Since Athena stopped this war, I should also respond to her kindness." Lancer Melo lowered the black hood on his head and introduced himself to the two people in front of him, "The genealogy of Apollo in the Olympian pantheon - the god of medicine Asclepius, and..."

"Ereshkigal, the oldest mistress of the underworld in the world, from the Sumerian pantheon."

Although in the early stages of this conversation, Lancermelo still overturned the table and exposed his cards as usual, fortunately, the subsequent process was handed over to the only negotiation expert William. After the negotiation between the two parties was over, Lancermelo, who had been hiding in the depths of consciousness, surfaced again, took control of his body from William, and went to find the world consciousness that issued the commission to understand the situation.

"Well, please tell me your specific commission requirements." In a deserted corner of the sanctuary, Lansemello looked at the vortex of magic floating in front of him and began to ask, "Also, what exactly is wrong with your world that requires other worlds to relay your commission?"

"I heard that you solved the problem of a magic world where magicians were almost completely wiped out, and you also changed the predetermined future of a magic world." The world consciousness spoke, and explained the situation of this world from the beginning of the commission. "Simply put, if my world continues to develop naturally, all mankind will be completely extinct in 243 years."

"…Isn't this not so urgent?" The deputy director of Chaldea, who had experienced a ridiculous schedule of saving humanity within a year, complained about the world consciousness of this world in a subtle tone, "In other words, your first priority is to ensure the survival of humans in this world - I understand, but why did you create a special point at this time?"

"Because the two key nodes that will lead to the extinction of humanity in this world are now and 243 years later." The world consciousness answered Lansemello's question seriously, "I sent a commission to the star sea before humanity was completely extinct, and then used the remaining power to create corresponding special points at these two key nodes. In order not to use up my power in advance, I have been conserving my power in the sanctuary of Athena, which aims to protect humanity. "

"In your world, Athena and Hades have fought more than a thousand holy wars. Although Athena paid a heavy price each time, victory always belongs to the Sanctuary." Lansemero extracted the important information obtained from the Pope and confirmed it with the world consciousness. "Then why did mankind perish after the last two holy wars?"

"My world and other worlds have mutual information - so Hades, who should have been suppressed by the possessed flesh and body consciousness, gave up this holy war and prepared for the holy war 243 years later." The world consciousness paused and said the final result, "Even if Pegasus 243 years later can also harm the true body of Hades, Hades, who has made sufficient preparations, still turned the entire earth into the underworld."

"I see. This time, the mission is to stop Hades from turning the entire land into the underworld in 243 years, right?"

"Yes - to achieve this goal, I allow you to use any means."
