Chapter 24 Summary of Imperial Maritime City Survey
The Demon Goddess is different from the Demon God Nephthys who is prone to tears as a mourning goddess and thus gives a little favor to inferior creatures at will. She is closer to the Demon God in the traditional sense.
It just feels like you can just do whatever you want to find excitement.
However, for a being who has accumulated enough money to easily blow up the world, seeking excitement is not a friendly thing.
Just when the empress was about to take more active actions against the origin of the labyrinth that transformed the game into reality and traveled into this world, Nephthys stopped her.
"Look, judging from the legends of this world, don't the guys who bring dollhouses come with real artifacts that can touch the law?"
"Oh, it seems that there was one in the period of the Six Great Gods. During the period of the Eight Desire Kings, the original magic rules of this world were subverted. It was part of the rules of Flampis. Oh, her name here is Crounpis La
Here comes Mpades, the retinue of the Dragon King of Destruction/Hell Fairy/Goddess of the Underworld/Goddess of Magic.”
The two goddesses slowed down their pace and talked about the information they had obtained after arriving in this world, hoping to find some clues related to this place and another higher world.
"puff!"
Just as a demon's jade foot stepped on the mechanism on the ground, the ground opened instantly, and a fish with a huge mouth poked its head out and swallowed the nearest empress in one mouthful.
"Mom, although I suggest respecting the facilities of the dollhouse, there is no need to do this kind of comedy that can only amuse humans, right?"
The queen’s voice came from the fish’s belly——
"Oh, I just want to see if the dollhouse's system can teleport to somewhere if it determines that it should enter a state of death."
The empress is a corpse-removing fairy, and it is quite easy to make herself look exactly like a real dead person.
Feeling that her efforts were in vain, the empress was disappointed and broke the big fish into pieces and jumped out.
"Even if you fall into a hole, you can't reach the lower level."
"In this case, wouldn't it be more defensive if they turn off the teleportation magic circle between floors?"
"Maybe there's something else wrong? If that could be done, the dollhouse wouldn't be sold."
"Come on, let's play puzzle solving."
They do whatever they want, sometimes doing good deeds, sometimes turning into destructive disasters, and sometimes playing like children. All just to find interesting things.
There were several lines of sight observing them.
One is a guild player who is terrified of these two beings who can easily destroy the maze, and the other is an evil spirit summoned by Star using the Fairy Queen who was on her body before Doriad teleported away.
And their response is: Just ignore it. What if the guys who are not a threat at all look at them and eavesdrop on a few words? What's more, they have never planned to make any strategy that is so complex that being interfered with is just a gear.
There will be problems with the plan.

Summary of the Bajas Empire's investigation into the objects that appeared in this "100-year aftershock" (draft):
"The maritime city that I discovered three months ago that popped up on the Crescent Sea didn't look very big. It was a square with ridiculously long sides. It was surrounded by a city wall that was more than seven meters high, which puzzled the imperial surveyors.
Yes, even though it is the size of a small fortress, it only has one gate."
"Having fewer city gates seems to be good for defense, but this will cause great inconvenience in the transportation of materials and personnel dispatch. The attacking party can trap the city without even having to besiege it."
"The location of the remains of the mechanism destroyed by naval and tank guns does not seem to be suitable for a cage battle. Instead, it looks like people were put in specifically to surround and fight."
"Therefore, the imperial surveyors initially believe that the city itself is a huge trap-type fortress."
"However, if it is a trap fortress, there is no reason why everything from the architecture to the walls should be built like this. This is a city where functionality and decoration are extremely contradictory——"
"There are gorgeous temples standing at the four corners of the city, and there are emblems that are suspected to belong to the city or represent the religion. Some containers inside are filled with gold coins. Except for some extremely rare ones, which are twice as heavy as the general gold coins, the carvings are detailed, and compared to gold
In addition to gold coins whose weight should focus more on artistic value, there are many gold coins that are nothing more than gold discs."
"From the analysis of the temple's furnishings, it should be a spiritual temple used to purify the souls of the deceased, but there are no traces of use. It is difficult to imagine the meaning of spending a lot of money to build a spiritual temple that has no use value. If it is just for show, it would be
It’s too exaggerated. It’s something that even the emperor, not to mention the great nobles, would not dare to do.”
(Note: Because the dead in this world will become undead, nobles, emperors or other powerful people who want to eliminate all possibilities of immortality will never allow their corpses to be crushed as monsters or seized and controlled by necromancers in the future.
Qian people place the corpse in the temple before burial to ensure the purification of the corpse, which is the so-called "soul ascension" before burial.)
"The streets have street trees and flower beds, and they are very neatly maintained. Most buildings and even city walls have various finely carved reliefs and exquisite craftsmanship decorations, which are rated as high-end works of art. The materials are unknown, but in many places there is no
There are no traces of stacking. It is as if it was cut out of the entire rock pan. Does it really have such terrible load-bearing and cutting technology, or is the seam removed by some means? Judging from the fact that the naval gun cannot cause a single scratch.
, the cost of just cutting and carving such materials is unimaginable.”
"It is definitely not something that humans can achieve with technology. If the living god Rampads we believe in and his twenty high-ranking fairies might be able to do it, but judging from the reaction of the personnel they sent to this place,
it's not true."
"Perhaps he is an existence on the same level as the True Dragon King and the Living God, but it is too easy to deal with Lord Luna Cherud, who is said to have worked with Count Korn Fried in the Ministry of Magic, and whose combat prowess is lower than that of other high-ranking fairies.
Look, this possibility can basically be ruled out."
"So, is it a race of giant rock creatures, the craftsmanship of giants, dwarves, or other beings far beyond humans?"
"Although the report states that the enemies encountered this time are all humans, the combat power is suspected to be summoned by ritual magic. Although I have learned that humans in the Central Continent are treated as beasts, there are actually cities that summon humans as consumables in battle.
It really disgusts me as a human being. Foolish commanders and nobles who don’t care about human life are much cuter than this.”
Because what I saw during the day had such a strong impact on my brain and heart, I write this with emotion and an impromptu atmosphere, and I found that the light began to flicker.
