Arturia's spirit foundation was unknowingly divided into three.
Goddess Artoria.
Polluted Artoria.
And... Artoria, who sleeps in the deepest part and has all the memories of King Arthur's time.
Each of the three occupies one-third of the power. Before, the goddess-like Artoria could be said to have completely suppressed King Arthur, because she alone had two-thirds.
After being polluted, it is naturally much weaker, because only "a part of it is polluted".
Now this part is separated by the sword of the original Hassan. Pollution has already penetrated into the depths of Artoria's spirit base, even the first Hassan couldn't simply kill the pollution directly.
As for the completely polluted ones like Lancelot... Compared to killing the polluted part, it is easier to kill Lancelot directly.
So now there's a battle going on outside the inside, a battle for control of the outside body.
And in the deepest part of my heart...
Artoria also came back from the dream, understood the current situation, and the suppression on her body was not as strong as before, and she could move around.
But not enough—
Her current strength is not enough to float to the 'surface', so she lacks a crucial item - the holy sword.
Just at this very moment.
Light appeared.
In the sky above this space, light suddenly appeared.
"This is-?
The two Artorias who were fighting stopped, and the one in the deepest part raised her head: "Excalibur!?"
brush-
In an instant, she kept getting deep into this inner world, and she, who still maintained the injuries from the Battle of Kamran, completely recovered in an instant, her armor was restored to integrity, and the holy sword appeared in her hand. Emerged out everywhere!
"You are..." The goddess-like Arturia looked at her past self in a daze for a moment, and her sleeping memory seemed to be awakening, but there were more important things to do before that.
"Keep her down first." King Arthur said, looking at himself who was so polluted that he couldn't see his face clearly.
"OK."
then-
It's time for two Arturias to fight one Artoria.
"long time no see."
Liangyi and Mi looked ahead, and Osmandis, whose spirit foundation was about to collapse completely, said: "Although I guessed that your condition is not good, I didn't expect it to be so bad."
"Ha, isn't this a matter of course." Osmandis looked at Liangyi and Mi with a smile: "If it weren't for this, Yu wouldn't be able to get out of that state, but you can find this place because Arash told you ?"
"No, he just said that you are in a 'safe place', and did not specify the specific location. I thought of this by myself. After all, this singularity is still called a 'safe place'. Of course... as of now, the current DIO has evolved once again, and this place can't be called safe."
"So that's true...it is true, but you came too late!" Osmandis said: "Several months have passed. During these few months, DIO has been controlling this singularity. Those who object The flames have already been suppressed, and he is almost the only one in this singularity who is 'able to think for himself'."
"Okay, I need your help to defeat DIO." Liangyi and Mi interrupted Osmandis's words.
Whether it's DIO or Osmandis, alone is already tricky.
Now the tricky bit is the point where the two have become one
If Dio's hands are broken, it will take a certain amount of time to recover, but now—as long as he is in that great temple, as long as his spirit base is still there, he can recover instantly after losing his hands!
And if he wants to forcibly destroy the Great Temple, he can use his stand-in ability to 'rewrite reality' at the moment of destruction to rewrite the Great Temple to the situation of 'not being destroyed'.
That is to say—
If you want to defeat the Great Temple, you need to kill DIO first, but if you want to kill DIO, you need to destroy the Great Temple first. This is a dilemma.
And DIO originally held the Holy Grail, so it can be said that there is no lack of magic power, and now he has killed all the millions of residents of this singularity, gathering their life energy and the magic power in the spiritual veins.
The soul is also completely absorbed. It can be said that there is no shortage of magic power and soul. It is impossible to consume him to death.
He had to kill her and destroy his spirit base.
But the immortality attached to the Great Temple... Among the fragments of Cangyin, Osmandis can be resurrected instantly even if the spirit base is destroyed. will fall...
This is all added to DIO now.
That is to say, even if Liangyi and Mi forcibly broke into the Great Temple and destroyed his spirit foundation, it was useless.
For a moment, he could think of the key to deal with the current situation, and the only one who killed DIO was the original master of this power—Osmandis.
He is the key.
A key point that can break the current situation.
That's why, after understanding this point, Liangyi and Mi took advantage of the situation to make DIO think that he was "sealed" and then hid himself, looking for opportunities in secret, like finding Osmandis like this now.
This time, it is more suitable for me to be an assassin.
"Haha, that's how it is. It is because of this that Yu has survived until now, relying on perseverance!" Osmandis said with a smile: "Of course I have prepared a second move, but before that, I must first restore Yu's dilapidated spirit foundation." That's all right, you can do it..."
"Of course." Liangyi and Mi smiled: "What do you need? Magic power? Is it the Holy Grail? In terms of magic power, the life energy stored in this body is enough to enslave hundreds of Servants at the same time. I found time to collect a few before, and I still have five."
"Hahaha—as expected of you, um... Originally, the king put his hope in Chaldea, but now, maybe there is a better choice." Osmandis looked at Liangyi and Mi: "Alright, then Modern hero, sign a contract, even if the spirit base is broken to this extent, as long as there is enough magic power, it will be enough!"
