Dr. Roman admitted there wasn't much he could do.
Of course, he knew himself best, and it was precisely that knowledge that filled him with despair.
Dr. Roman reached out, gloved hand touching the ring on his middle finger. It was his last resort.
Mo Shuying watched Romani, noticing his small gesture. He didn't call him out on it, waiting a long time before standing up and finally saying,
"The uncertainty of calling for help is too great, and who could we even call upon to stop Solomon?"
Looking at human history, how many people could truly fight Solomon now? It wasn't that Solomon's historical weight was unmatched, but rather that he had planned this far, using the entire world as his foundation, and his actions were already more than halfway complete. He held an inherent advantage, already impossibly strong.
"If you could summon Alcides, that would be a significant fighting force too."
Romani suggested, and Mo Shuying nodded. In terms of combat effectiveness, Alcides was indeed exceptional. But... the probability of summoning Alcides from a pool of thousands of Heroic Spirits was rather low.
"Summoning is definitely worth a try, but it can't be our sole method for dealing with Solomon, Dr. Roman. Although we haven't known each other long, but..."
But I don't want you to sacrifice yourself. Mo Shuying didn't voice these words, pausing before sighing.
"But we will try our best. Please, Dr. Roman, help prepare the Summoning Ritual. I will summon a Heroic Spirit Servant again shortly."
It was worth a shot. Things were already like this, anyway; who they summoned wouldn't make much of a difference.
"Alright, I'll go prepare it now."
Dr. Roman nodded, then quickly left Mo Shuying's room.
Half an hour later.
"Declare!"
Mo Shuying once again stood on the familiar summoning platform. Mana flowed in, connecting to the ethereal Throne of Heroes, feeling the response, confirming the link, and beginning the summon!
*"Om~"*
A white light appeared, coalescing into a figure. Mo Shuying immediately felt a surge of heat.
"I have answered your summons. Are you my Master?"
The summoned individual was a handsome man with white hair, an impassive face, and black and red armor. A red gem was embedded in his exposed chest, and sun-shaped shields were attached to both shoulders. A flame-like scarf fluttered behind his neck.
"Karna?!"
Mo Shuying was stunned. He hadn't expected to summon him!
"You called my name immediately. Have we met before, Master?"
Karna looked slightly puzzled. He had no recollection of Mo Shuying.
Mo Shuying smiled and shook his head.
"No, I just know a little about your legends. Welcome, Son of the Sun. May I ask, you're a Lancer, right?"
Mo Shuying suddenly asked.
*"Boom!"*
Flames immediately surged in Little Sun's hand, forming a golden spear. Actions spoke louder than words; he directly used his weapon to confirm.
Seeing this, the smile on Mo Shuying's face grew wider. He had just been wishing for a powerful combatant, and here he was! Look at Little Sun! Now look at Merlin! He was a Grand candidate! Unbelievable.
"Let's go, Karna. We'll find a place, and I'll explain the current situation."
Mo Shuying turned. Little Sun's arrival was truly a shot in the arm.
Through their conversation, Karna understood the current world and Chaldea's predicament. To be honest, it wasn't looking good.
With the prepared facing the unprepared, Chaldea was clearly at a disadvantage. They had already worked hard to save three Singularities...
Karna looked at his Master with a strange expression. Despite being human, the Mana within his body and his physical strength were astonishing. Karna also sensed that Mo Shuying was constantly getting stronger, albeit subtly, but steadily increasing.
How did he do it? Karna was a little curious.
"What's wrong, Karna? Is there a problem?"
Mo Shuying suddenly noticed Karna seemed lost in thought and couldn't help but ask. Was Little Sun the kind of child who got distracted during lessons?
"Oh, no, it's nothing. I was just a bit surprised to hear all of this at once. What do you need me to do next? While I may not excel in other areas, in combat, I can charge to the front, becoming my Master's strongest spear."
Meeting such a powerful Master, Karna felt a competitive urge; he couldn't lose. He was the Son of the Sun, always the most dazzling light, and there was no doubt about that.
"That's incredibly reliable, Karna. Perfect, in fact. We're about to head to the Fourth Singularity. I wonder if you can change the situation there..."
Mo Shuying stroked his chin, his eyes gleaming. He thought of the environment of the Fourth Singularity. While not large for a Singularity, its environment was somewhat complex, a true Fog City.
However, those mists had transformed into Mana Mist, seemingly obstructing detection. He wondered if Child Gil's omniscience would still be effective. He'd need to test it then.
After two days of simple rest, Romani sent word that the Fourth Singularity had been located and was ready for repair at any time.
Compared to before, this team was much larger. Except for Merlin, who explicitly said he wouldn't go, and Little Director and Qin Liangyu, everyone else participated.
Behind Mo Shuying were Child Gil, Li Shuwen, and Karna. This was a complete team, even if there were no substitutes...
Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, a total of six people, entered the capsule.
"Everyone, this is the Fourth Singularity. You need to go to London, known as the Fog City. We've detected that it's covered in mist, and our detection is restricted. Upon entry, you need to immediately find a Geomantic Vein location and establish contact with Chaldea. This way, both logistics and reconnaissance communication won't be too affected. Everyone, the path ahead is uncertain and needs to be pioneered. The future of humanity rests in your hands."
Little Director stood before the team, delivering an inspiring pre-departure speech, his passionate tone boosting everyone's morale.
Then the six-person pod closed, Spiritron Conversion began, and in the next second, the six vanished.
Watching Mo Shuying and the others disappear, Merlin, standing near the doorway not far away, turned around, a smile on his lips, and murmured,
"Just a little more. Almost done. This body, hold on."
Meanwhile, the Little Director looked at the empty pod, a glimmer of longing in her eyes. She really wanted to go on adventures with Mash and the others, to save the world.
She had finally gained Master qualifications, but she found that her body—or rather, her soul—had an issue. Ever since returning from Romani, she would often find herself becoming incredibly vast while resting, so vast that she was grander than planets, with countless planets orbiting her. She could crush a planet in her hand with just a slight reach.
Although this feeling of controlling everything was quite pleasant, the Little Director would always wake up with a start, then stare blankly for a long time, a sense of unfamiliarity with herself welling up in her heart.
She was very worried that if this continued for too long, would she still be Olga Marie Animusphere?
