Chapter 55
This Is a Group Battle Dungeon

“Okay, let me explain the mission one last time.”

Due to Lu Chen’s intense interest in the Spirit Particle Calculation Device, they lost some time.

Dr. Roman announced the mission objective to everyone again.

“You will be traveling to the first singularity, which is France in 1431.”

“There are two tasks: First, the investigation and correction of the singularity, which is the decisive turning point for humanity in that era.”

“You must investigate what happened in that era and then correct it.”

Lu Chen indicated that there were no problems. As a seasoned Master, he knew what the problem with the first singularity was.

He would go straight to the target, skipping even the initial investigation work.

“Second, the investigation of the Holy Grail. During the investigation of the singularity, you will surely discover information related to the Holy Grail.”

“Even if history is corrected, if the Holy Grail remains in that era, it will all be in vain.”

“Therefore, either destroy the Holy Grail or obtain it.”

“I understand.”

Fujimaru Ritsuka seemed a little lacking in confidence, but seeing Lu Chen and the shipgirls next to him, he felt a little more reassured.

A numerical advantage is important when traveling to another world.

The more companions you have, the more confident you will be.

“Are all of your companions going with you? The Spirit Particle Calculation Device can only transport seven people at the moment; if there are more, the energy will be insufficient.”

Roman looked at Lu Chen’s accompanying shipgirls.

Richelieu, Taihou, Kaga, and another girl with a slightly younger age, blonde hair, blue eyes, and a European-style rapier on her waist.

Adding Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, that makes exactly seven people.

“Hello, I am Joan of Arc, the Free Iris Truant Class Light Cruiser.”

Joan of Arc introduced herself generously.

“???”

Roman and Gudako only understood the first half of the sentence, not the second half.

“Joan of Arc?! What the hell?!”

“She’s a Jeanne, I have a Jeanne too, don’t worry about those details.”

Lu Chen said that he was doing this on purpose.

Since the mission location is in France, it makes sense to bring along Richelieu and Jeanne, the two French ships.

“…”

“Alright.”

Roman gave up trying to understand things he didn’t understand.

“After you are transported to that era, go search for ley lines and create a summoning circle.”

“This way, you can freely summon Servants, but most of the summoned ones will probably be Servants related to the era and location.”

“Understood?”

He was like an old father giving advice to everyone.

“Understood.”

Mashu nodded.

“Then… start the spirit particle transfer!”

“May your luck be with you—”

The seven stood inside the Spirit Particle Calculation Device.

Boom—

Swish——

Along with the sound of mechanical broadcasting.

The scene in front of them suddenly shrunk into a black hole.

Lu Chen and the others instantly became translucent, their life activities were now in an “unknown” state, between life and death.

Then, as if it had only been a moment, as if it had been a long time.

Lu Chen opened his eyes again.

“Ugh, my head is spinning, it’s even more dizzy than Commander’s time tunnel.”

The shipgirls shook their heads, stood up and cleared their minds.

The seven started to look around their surroundings.

Blue sky and white clouds, endless grasslands and hills.

In the distance, there was a medieval-style village with smoke rising from it.

They had arrived in France in 1431.

“It should be the Hundred Years’ War right now, but the war doesn’t seem to have reached here, it’s relatively peaceful.”

Mashu looked around.

“Does anyone here speak French or understand local customs?”

“Leave it to me.”

Richelieu smiled lightly.

The flagship of the Free Iris, a pure-blooded French nobleman, a cardinal, a member of the Old Paris Blue Banner.

No one knows France better than she does.

“First find ley lines, then summon a Heroic Spirit.”

Lu Chen cleared his throat.

“Okay.”

Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu unconsciously started to follow orders.

As if he has a natural leadership quality.

The location of the spirit particle transfer was very empty, almost deserted.

Even ordinary soldiers were rare.

As they walked, Lu Chen explained the situation of this singularity to the team of seven.

To put it simply, in the original timeline, during the Hundred Years’ War, Joan of Arc of France was burned at the stake by the Inquisition and died in 1431.

But in the singularity, due to some mysterious power, Jeanne was burned to death three days later and resurrected as a blackened Heroic Spirit who returned to the world. For revenge, she used the Holy Grail to summon seven Riders, trying to destroy France.

To solve the problem of this singularity, you need to figure out a way to deal with Black Jeanne and the Holy Grail.

As for the strength comparison between the two sides…

The other side is Black Jeanne plus seven Servants, while this side has four shipgirls, plus Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu.

Maybe they’ll have to fight a team battle.

In the original story, Gudako and the two of them could solo, there’s no reason they can’t beat this.

“No matter what, this Orleans battle is four shipgirls against eight Heroic Spirits, the advantage is on my side!!”
