We are looking for a new ruins location that the leader of the "Claws of Justice" has recently discovered, and we have found a powerful location.
From the coastal city of Uburn, an area where cliffs continue east along the coastline is a suspicious place.
Nia used her "subspace detection" skills to help her search, but she told me that she felt something like a sway in subspace, not a sign of subspace, so she told me where it was suspicious.
Nia expects the entrance to be disguised.
So I decided to find out if there was any disguised place.
"Lili, I'm sorry, but will you try putting 'Fire Magic - Fire Shot' into this area at regular intervals with minimal force?"
Lily, the genius of magic coordination, asked her to fire fire magic with minimal force.
If it's the rock you see, the lowest power fire magic will fly.
If there is something different, I think there will be another reaction.
"I see. Let's do it!"
Lili said so and continued to cast fire magic at regular intervals.
—— Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
—— Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
—— woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh.
—— Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
Now... there's a place where some of the walls just disappeared so they couldn't blow it up!
Looks like... there's a cavity in the back.
It must be some sort of device that disguises itself as if it were surrounded by cliffs.
It is likely to be the entrance to a new ruin.
The cliff, which is about 50 meters high from the sea level, is just like the entrance in the middle.
At this altitude, even if the water level rises and falls due to the tide, it will not be affected.
Of course, it's a place we can't get in on a ship.
I approached the Dragon ship, took off with the Flight skill, and approached the entrance.
I don't know what's going on, so I decided to investigate first, make sure it's safe, and then I called Nias.
I carefully put my hand on the suspicious wall.
... it's still a empty space.
To hide the entrance, it's like a video that shows the wall, so you'll never know unless you get close.
I jumped into the space.
... it's much bigger inside than I thought.
It has both width and height, and it looks like a large passage.
It has a natural cave-like atmosphere, but it stretches straight and straight, giving the impression of a corridor.
I can't see anything like an artificial wall right now.
Just somehow... it feels like a natural cave.
I summoned Nia, Lily and Chappie and decided to start exploring the back.
After a while, it's a dead end.
But it can't be... there must be something behind this.
That's what my gut tells me.
There must be a hidden entrance somewhere.
We decided to split up and look for the entrance.
A little while later, Chappie came to me.
That rock over there is suspicious ~
Chappie felt something because he had a good instinct.
A rock about the size of a child protrudes from the ground where Chappie points.
In movies, touching stones like this opens a hidden door, and there must be a gimmick like that....
I put my hand against the rock and pushed and pulled.
But there was no reaction.
"Maybe...."
Lili played a voice and touched the rock.
Something must have flashed.
Oh! The rock lit up a little.
Looks like Lili lost her magic.
I see... can it be activated by magic...?
Lily, Nice!
That's Lili.
And it's a little pathetic that I didn't notice...
A wall at the end of the cave, which was straight as a passage, slided sideways like an automatic door and opened.
And inside... no doubt!It appears to be a relic of the "Fourth Magna Empire".
It's like building walls and passages, just like the ruins of the chieftain, Ajito.
The cave-textured walls mix with the artificial textured walls, but the artificial textured walls create a slightly futuristic feel.
After going through the straight passage for a while, he went out into a large and spacious space.
It's a wide circular space like a hall.
There are a number of parts of the wall that may be the entrance to a small room.
Creatively... it could have been some kind of research or manufacturing facility.
Looking at the wall, there is a big door or a shutter on the top.
Located just above the passage that came this far, it faces the sea in a directional direction.
Maybe if something like this shutter opens, there's another big passage.
Could it be made to launch something...?
Somehow... I think of firing gimmicks such as cartoons that are common in secret bases like Anime.
If that's the case, it's cool...
We decided to take a look at each of these large spaces and the entrances to the small rooms on the surrounding walls, including a survey around them.
I've finished checking the street.
There's hardly anything left in the middle space.
I checked the private rooms at the wall one by one, but there were various rooms, such as large rooms such as conference rooms, private rooms that might have been used for various purposes, large spaces that looked like dormitories, and spaces that were thought to be cafeterias.
But none of them were as embarrassing as the leader of the "Claw of Justice" explored.
There were about three magical tools left in the cafeteria-like space, like a cassette stove.
The shape is very close to the cassette stove I know.
There is a flame exit, and there are parts like a table on which pots and the like can be mounted.
And it seems that if you cast magic, a fire will erupt.
Functionally, it feels like a cassette stove itself.
It is an item of the "Lower (Easy)" class with the name "Magic Range".
The leader probably didn't take it away because it can't be used in combat.
Otherwise, there were tables and chairs in some rooms, and nothing really remained.
Well, I was expecting it, but I'm a little disappointed.
But this place itself may be quite usable.
It's a new secret base... it could really be used as a secret base just for my people.
A lot of people know that the original secret base, "Dragon Wing Base", is limited to my acquaintances.
It's an official secret base, not a secret anymore.
If we build a real secret base somewhere, we could be a candidate here.
The other is that the place where the leader of the previously oppressed "Claw of Justice" was located is also the ruins of the "Mashimagna Fourth Empire" and can be turned into a secret base.
At present, I don't really feel the need to maintain anything other than the official secret base, "Dragon Wing Base".
Therefore, it will be left here for the time being.
At the moment, it would be better to enrich the Dragon Wing Base.
Incidentally, the second secret base already exists.
It was the site of the "Claw of Justice" beneath the Wing Forest, southwest of the territorial capital of Count Helsing.
With the name "Wing Forest Base", it serves as a base for the activities of "Holy Blood Demons" and "Holy Blood Organisms".
It feels like a base for Caroline's "Holy Bloodsuckers".
Of course, Count Elena and the Duke of Euphemia know of its existence, so this is an official secret base rather than a real secret base.
