In the hazy mist, everything around us is grassland, but what is a little unnatural is that in this vast plain with almost no hills or slopes, there are some hillsides that appear abruptly.
If these hillsides are dotted in dots, it means that the terrain here is similar to the area where fairies and demihumans fought in the past, but it is different here.
It might be natural if the few hills were more widely distributed, but now the few hills seem to be surrounding something, making people who enter the hills can't help but climb over these hills to find out——
If this was not an area with a large number of undead, there would definitely be adventurers doing this.
It’s not that there are adventurers who are not willing to just accept commissions from the Adventurer’s Guild to destroy monsters and act as mercenaries against monsters, but they are all dead.
On this day, a new "explorer" was welcomed into these hills.
"Hoola, hoola..." Along with the sound of wind generated by violently flapping its wings, a huge bone dragon made of bones fell from the sky.
"Puff puff puff puff puff." The five goblins jumped off the dragon's back one after another and landed on the grass.
"Hey, it feels like this is the habitat of the undead, but the air is fine. Why not ride on the frost dragon, but have to ride on the bone dragon?" Crounpis sniffed around and said dissatisfied.
Even a dragon's back covered with dragon scales is still more comfortable than sitting on a skeleton.
"Dad, the life of the dragon is too strong. Although I am not afraid of it, it would be annoying if the low-level undead who are not worthy of Bei Er's control sense the huge living beings and gather around them, right?" Gran Bei Er explained.
"That's right. So, what's going on with these unnatural bumpkins?"
Of course, Granbell didn't know how the terrain in this area was formed, so she had no choice but to tilt her head.
"Maybe it was done by the Theocracy." Star stretched out his fingers and smiled.
"I can understand for a reason that they want to hide here, but how do they do this?" Crownpis raised her head and looked at a hill, which was covered with the same low vegetation as on the plain, "If not
It is formed naturally, that is, it is made by lifting the soil directly from the ground. I can't do it so naturally."
Cronpis is a little interested in unknown technology, but Luna who interrupted seemed to be negative——
"Isn't it easy to do it with earth magic? With hundreds of magic casters, even if you only know one, two or three levels of magic, it will take several years to achieve this level, right?"
"Luna, do you know this? I don't know?" Cronpis was surprised, because she regularly copied the knowledge that Luna learned from reading - so that she could get double the knowledge.
"Oh, that's the civil engineering book I read recently. Using earth magic is a way to quickly build and raise the foundation of a building," Luna said, raising her head and looking at the top of the hill, "But this is really
It’s many times bigger, so I think it can be done with many times more people. After all, a country as big as The Theocracy certainly has no shortage of people, right?”
"Who knows?" She felt that if she continued to speculate, according to the fairy thinking, she would have to go to the Theocracy to tie up a few magic casters who seemed to understand architecture. Crounpis stopped the topic and looked at today.
The main drama——
"Anyway, if the thing that Sagihime asks you to deal with is also the thing that the Theocracy wants to hide, this is it."
A small plain surrounded by some hills looks like a basin.
In the center of this "basin", there is a medium-sized lake. It is extremely abnormal to have a lake in such a dead place. After all, there is no stable water source and geographical water flow.
The source of water now is not the gushing groundwater, but the stone lion in the center of the lake that keeps spraying water from its mouth. The amount of water produced is quite large.
The reason why we did not continue to expand the water area should be to form a balance with the water seeping into the ground.
However, there is a new problem - doesn't this mean that water is increasing out of thin air? Then, the internal structure of this stone lion may have formed a cycle by pumping water from the ground, filtering it, and then ejecting it from above.
I can't figure this out no matter how much I think about it. If I could pack this thing away and study it, everything would be fine. But since then——
Crounpisi climbed to a tall mound on the edge of the lake, stared at the stone lion closely, stretched out her hand and activated the magic: "Enemy Scan [sensor ene]"
Level 99.
"You don't even know the etiquette and you don't have the right to enter the bathhouse! You will be killed!"
On the opposite side, a male voice suddenly appeared, making the goblins look at each other.
"what is that?"
"Is this an open-air bathhouse?"
"Ah? The lion is moving?" Sunny stretched out her hand and pointed at the stone lion that started to splash in the eyes of the goblins and gradually enlarged and moved faster and faster.
"I'll choke you! Retreat!" He couldn't help but curse secretly when he saw the stone lion seemed to regard this magic as an attack and rushed towards it in response.
At this level, this side may not have a chance of winning, but without information, it may cause heavy casualties. Crounpis doesn't like fighting, so he won't fight.
The goblins jumped on the bone dragon one after another and took off! However, the stone lion jumped suddenly and was about to jump up!
"You—" Crounpis directly called out several of his fruits and threw them at the stone lion.
Suddenly, Crounpis became a little panicked. Wouldn't this guy use this series of fruits as leverage to jump up and catch up?
Fortunately, the worry was unnecessary. Although the fruit was smashed to pieces by the stone lion with a few unambiguous blows, leaving only the hard core flying away, it also followed Newton's law very much and received a reaction force and fell directly.
Go down.
"Burn the napal!"
"Extreme Holy Strike [hol site]!"
"Netherworld strike [astral site]!"
The three fairies of light released their strongest magic, surging red flames and light beams falling from the sky, rain of light, covering the stone lions.
While the stone lion was being continuously injured with unknown effects, Star continued to smile and looked at Crownpiss: "Hey, Piss, could this be - the guild of Ainz Ooal Gown?
Is it the prank Graeme created by Lucifer, the player in it?”
"Maybe?" Crowenpis scratched his hair with a solemn expression, "But no matter what, why does this guy appear here? This world is getting further and further away from what I understand."
Perhaps this is not a problem as long as it is ignored, but as the unknown gradually increases, the security will also be reduced, which makes Crownpis a little unhappy.
There are many time-travel works in Cronpith's memory. It is said that exploring the unknown is interesting——
How funny! An unknown like this is something that could kill you at any time, right?
