Boundary Labyrinth and the Foreign Magician

"Oh, I saw something in the ocean again!

the energetic voice of Ruskinia. There are small islands dotted a little north of the continent, but when they came around, there was nothing to hide in the sea.

As such, I can discover a variety of organisms even at night because I watch life reactions while traveling a wide range.

Seals, todo, and seabirds. It looks like a large marine mammal...... Winter crosses the winter in a relatively warm place, slightly away from the continent, as the saying goes.

The sea has the properties of storing heat, so the temperature is kept relatively warm, and the inland area has elevations, so the temperature drops even further. Because of this nature, temperatures vary completely between inland areas and the surrounding islands.

"What about those kids?

and Sheila points over the island. I guess that's a penguin again, but it's pretty small compared to teal. Teal replies with a ringing voice, shaking her neck sideways, although she seemed a little happy.

They're not too close to each other, but they're from another race, and they can't manipulate ice.

Is it your neighbor if I tell you from the teal's? It doesn't look like a demon.

Meanwhile, there are demons.

A short distance from here...... floating on the ocean like an island, but the light of life response captures that it is a giant turtle.

"Aspidokelon... you're here too"

"They're going to be traveling around a very wide area."

Marl tells me that way. I see...... The ocean is connected everywhere.

"What kind of demon is it?

Grace asks.

"Basically, it's huge, it should be. Yeah, and I'm floating offshore, but if I mistakenly landed on an island, I'd suddenly be active, and the sailors on the back armor would drown, what an anecdote. But I've never heard of sailors being eaten before."

If you zoom in and take a good look, there are plants growing on the back methyl, or the edges are rocky and shellfish and coral and they stick together...... they do look like land.

I have all sorts of things on my back...... that's what happened when Termwilds water dragon parents and kids woke up from sleep.

According to Teal, sometimes he comes swimming from the north, or he's gone somewhere when he finds out. I've never been attacked, and I've seen you take care of things that grow on your back, etc.

I wonder if the plants and corals on my back look alive... are protected by what Aspidokelon is capable of.

With plants. It won't grow so cold in the south, and if you dive into the ocean, it will be wiped out by then. Corals would be dead if they were out on the sea...

Teal explains it aloud as he moves his patties and flippers.

I've seen a bunch of seals that were snuggling in the sun over the methyl and resting on their bodies, if they're in havoc because Aspidokelon suddenly moved out and dived into the sea, apparently.

"Well... I guess sea creatures don't have to worry about drowning each other"

I laugh bitterly at Claudia for imagining the sight. Sure, it's a medium-surreal event......

Anyway, I'm just acting my pace about aspidoceron, so it looks fine.

It's not isolated from the outside world, so if it's a bird or a marine creature demon, it's unlikely to come from outside, though. Let's understand it that way. Earlier, Teal said that there were not so many dangerous demons for us, but it would be forbidden to be cautious. I think I fought Kraken with Teal, and if I could adapt to the cold, I'd be able to work.

Looking beneath his eyes at the waters that have become more lively with so many creatures... The Sirius proceeds towards Antarctica.

Within that - the state of the sea has changed clearly. By the time I got here, I had seen the drifting ice and the icebergs, but I was under the impression that the ice would occupy more area than normal sea level… how extreme the sea is.

Land should also be within sight of the Sirius… but it does not match the topographical map of the globe. The land is covered in thick ice, and the ocean is closed to ice, so you don't look like you know where the coastline is.

Nevertheless, the land can be distinguished from where it is by looking at the stargazer, and the approximate position where Teal's companions are active is discernible.

Tierra felt the wavelength of magic, but there was a wavelength roughly similar to Teal's around here, so... we still have to crumble through the details ourselves. Life reactions, etc., must not be missed.

Use dark vision and life instruction to advance the ice world as far as you can see. My vision was pretty good and it was a fantastic landscape because of how the moonlight reflected on the ice and blurred with dark vision magic.

Ice fields and ice-covered mountains...... Teal looked around at the lined crystal plate monitors and raised his voice a little excited that this place looked familiar.

"Even though it's all ice, you can still tell your hometown by the terrain."

When Grace says it like she was impressed, Teal snorts and raises her voice, explaining everything.

When we head inland, we all gather at a certain place. He said that he doesn't know the position of the sun and the exact direction to go now that the sun is not out because it will mark the mountains that look far away.

"The position of the sun? Then… maybe the time to start moving is also important"

"Sure, you can guess from the height of the sun, the sunshine time, etc. when you're about to start traveling."

Claudia closes her eyes and nods.

Thanks for listening to Teal. As far as I can tell from Jingjiu's memory, he seems to have an ecology close to Koutay Penguin, such as moving inland in herds as winter arrives...

"I'm going to keep watching the stargazer react, so don't hesitate to let me know if you notice anything else"

With that said, Teal shook his neck vertically with a crease.

Keep going through the ice world. Did the wind come out in it, like a snowstorm?

If you're referring to the Sirius, we're expanding the field, so the ice will stick to it, and it won't interfere with navigation or peripheral vision, and since it's from the sky, we can see the distant view, so we won't know where we are...

"... it looks like snowstorms near the ground are causing a lot of trouble."

"Maybe it won't leave any footprints or anything. Normal exploration is difficult"

Sheila replied that way when Ashley shrugged. Right. The wind's momentum is fierce, and if it were a normal organism, it would quickly deprive you of your temperature. It's too harsh an environment to live in, and it's usually going to be difficult to explore. As for us, we have the protection of the High Spirit, so if there are no traces on the surface, we should continue our search without going down from the ship.

Speaking of policy, Illumhilt said with a mysterious face.

"There's a rift of ice on the ground, too. We need to be careful when we get off the ship..."

"Crevasse? Certainly."

"Corliss... says he'd rather go out on the deck and smell the smell than look at the crystal plate"

Stephania proposes it that way.

"Okay. Deck would be less dangerous, and let's lower it to safe speed and altitude."

"We'll ask the little one too!

"It's an ice spirit, so it just feels a little different...... I think maybe it's okay"

and Ruskinia and Mar.

Join Corliss and Ruskinia on the deck to disarm the field that is unfolding once.

In the case of Corliss, the sense of smell is also different from normal. Few parts depend on the direction of the wind because you feel the magic in a sympathetic way... the field should be disarmed.

Get out on the deck - Corliss makes his nose snap. I had been sniffing around for a while, but eventually pointed in one direction clearly.

"Reactive…?"

"I asked the little ones too... he said he went through this area in line a while back"

"I don't really care about the details, but maybe it fits in the direction Corliss is pointing."

Ruskinia and Marr also tell me. I see. I'm not going in the wrong direction.

The appearance of the little spirits - either because they are far from the public, or because they look like a blurry, shining sphere, and do not take on a clear shape. But Ruskinia and Marr can communicate.

It should be a distance that Teal's people can travel on foot, so I don't think we have to go that far into the depths, even if it's inland or the Sirius. Because I think it's time to see the herd.

At least, you're not going in the wrong direction. At one end we all went back to the deck...... as we went on low altitude and no overlooks - we saw something odd in the distance.

"Is that...?

Valley like terrain between mountains and mountains. There...... I could see some like a big ice dome being made that was somehow different from the others.

The moment I saw it, Teal was there, and I raised my voice.

Inside the dome - a lot of life response glow. It's - with the same brilliance of life response as teal.

Oh. Did you find it...!

"Maybe... are we making that ice ourselves?

When asked, Teal nods vigorously.

... right. If the teals can manipulate the ice - oh, they can create an ice dome that will also be windproof and cold-proof, making its interior a nesting ground.

Will it also avoid external enemies? A bird-based demon wouldn't be impossible to target a nest from the sky, but I feel like I can safely raise chicks for that.

Naturally, it can't be a regular penguin. I guess boulders should be called demon penguins.
