Episode 19: Submersible Underwater Cities
"You can really take it with you."
Ask the tower as it touches the crystal ball at the top of the tower.
Underneath you can see the city at the bottom of the sea.
'Yeah, losers follow winners. If you want something, there's nothing more to it than to give in. "
He's an honest guy.
I was trying to get rid of us until I manipulated the golem myself earlier. I don't think he's very much the same guy.
Could it be some kind of trap?
But I don't feel any suspicious signs from crystal balls.
"What do we do?
I hear Iris felt the same way. He asks.
"No, let's collect it"
In the end, I can't finish the request without collecting it.
Store the crystal ball in the toolbox.
"Now, really -"
A defensive system of spheres appears in the tower many times nearby.
"- It's the last time."
"That's what you're saying, but you're moving around."
'No, I'm using the last magic left in this body to move it. Ten minutes is the limit, even if you can move long. In some situations, it will be shorter.'
They can only really move for a few minutes.
'I'm moving around with this body simply because I want to see the end of the tower that I kept protecting'
The sphere's eyes are pointed upwards.
The junction that was covering the seabed ruins diminishes and the water pushes over.
The city that allowed the water intrusion quickly goes with the building crushed by Peshanko and the wreckage pushed away.
"You're fast disappearing."
"The magic power produced by crystal balls was not only used to maintain the junction, but also to experiment with synthetic demons in large quantities. And then there were times when the amount of magic produced from year to year was decreasing, and these days it was just really maintaining the status quo at the critical point."
The junction was no longer maintained just because the supply was gone.
It would be around the time when the tower is shutting down all functions as well.
"It's sad when this happens."
Even though no one lived in the city, it was temporarily used as a place of refuge to escape the catastrophe. It was definitely people's hope.
Such a place disappears.
"You're flat out saying it's dangerous here, too."
"We just have to go back in [metastasis] if we're critical."
I wanted to remember how the city disappeared as the one who made me at least visit the end of the day.
But when the junction disappeared, water pushed from the top here too.
"" [Labyrinth Junction] ""
Work with Illis. This one ties the line.
The water that pushed me over is bounced and falls downstairs.
This can withstand even when the water flows.
"Is this who you can afford"
The defense system also endured forming its own field of defense. Of course not for free. It consumes magic just by letting it unfold, which makes it shorter for you to remain conscious.
"Would you like to watch it?"
'Yes, for me, because this place was everything in the world'
The city was completely submerged.
Later, they should be covered in water to the top of the tower just waiting.
"Look."
When I looked at Ira's fingered seabed, the light came up.
"Is it a spirit body"
'The junction does not just push and retain the water pushing from the outside. It also sealed the art of escaping from the inside out. "
Thanks to this, those who died within the undersea city became feathers wandering the city, becoming spiritual bodies without being able to form a Buddha.
But it also ends when the junction disappears.
Freed from the city, the soul aspires to sea.
Those who were studying synthetic demons in the city, those who had taken refuge to escape the catastrophe, pirates who invaded the city in search of treasure.
Various souls had been liberated.
"... no, not too much?
I've seen the sight of my soul being liberated several times.
At that time, something like smoke seemed to go upwards, similar to light.
A glimmer of light, etc., is not a level. It was a sight to be called a eruption of light.
"Hahaha, hahahaha -! It was still calculated"
"What do you mean?
"The soul of the demon was also strengthened by the fact that he kept eating or synthesizing the meat of the demon. There were tens of thousands of such strong souls wandering in the city. Now, what happens if you give a huge amount of magic to your liberated soul?
"No way -"
The soul that was surfacing aspires to sea at full speed.
"Where did you source that amount of magic from?
"Did you really believe in the word" critical "? No, it was actually critical, but the spare magic is well secured in case the junction suddenly ceases to function, etc. I just poured it all in. '
Pushed from boundary to boundary by the running of the soul.
'This is what I really wanted to see. Come on, you'll be brought back to life as a demon with power like an undead.'
I hear a slight voice in the defense system like I won.
"We're going back."
Use [Transfer] to return to the Mansion.
"Oh, brother!?
In front of me was Chris preparing dinner.
She's eating at the mansion today, too, and she's helping out with Liana.
"You're home a long time ago. Besides, I can't believe you're coming back directly to the mansion."
"Sorry, but we don't have time to relax and talk"
[Metastasis] at the bottom of the sea, so I returned to the base.
"Melissa, let me fly to that sea."
"Okay."
Consciousness disappears.
The next moment I woke up, I was standing on a sandy beach that was ahead of me through the woods.
"[Summons]"
I also summon five of my family members.
"What's the situation?
"I can tell from a glance..."
The sight of the sea I saw as soon as I came back here.
They who were summoned were also losing their words when they saw the sea.
"That's..."
A huge submarine from the sea far from the sandy beach was only putting out the top.
"Perhaps there was a strong desire to 'escape from the seabed' from the effects of being trapped in a submarine city. As a result, the submarines owned by the Pirates, coming from outside the undersea city, must have taken their ideal form."
It has no reality in the presence of the soul alone.
However, the immense amount of magic gathered there gave the entity the soul ideal.
That's the... submarine.
The submarine begins to make its way in the opposite direction to the western side with the sandy beach.
"Hey, where you going?"
"I guess there's no purpose. Rapture as an instinct as the undead - decays at the end of the day. I guess that instinct is driving me to a place where the closest people get together."
There is a port town in the Principality of Ishgalia ahead of the submarine that begins to take its path.
Even the place where people live is quite a distance from the side of the Kingdom of Metis, and only a few live in the village.
You better get attacking a port town in a remote location than dealing with such a small village.
We are going straight to the Principality of Ishgalia.
"You can't just leave that thing behind."
The undead noise of last year has not yet completely calmed down.
Reconstruction of the whole country would be even slower if the port towns were damaged to the point of being devastated in such a situation.
The Principality of Ishgali must be a sound country in order to ensure smooth remuneration in the future.
We'll get our own submarine out too.
"Are you chasing me?
"Fortunately, the other side created a giant submarine from immense magic and soul. Speed should be better this way, so it shouldn't be hard to chase him down."
Inject magic into the submarine.
The power groans and chases the ghost submarine.
