Golden Experience

Episode 422: "Move closer and further away. Relationships are a mirage."

After placing their food bags in the castle, Professor Mori and Etty went to the underground cave, which was stretching in a different direction from the port town where they went underground, all aiming for the ground.

If the port town was east, would this be south?

Unlike the eastern port, the exit immediately appeared.

Many people come and go like feeders on the port side, so they dig a safe underground cave for a long time.

It is difficult to perceive that underground caves that are darker than bright ground are safer, but this seems normal on this continent, where human forces are very small.

Or maybe there are few monsters in this continent that live in the basement.

I smelled that nasty smell again when I went out to the ground, but I could bear it if I knew. Even if it is a state of intoxication, if it is mild, the complexion will change. This may be a unique strength for players who do not associate thinking power with state abnormalities.

As for the irreplaceable smell, I breathed through my mouth and managed to reach the ground.

The entrance and exit appear to be herbaceous and secure, but it seems likely that monsters will attack soon after leaving.

The eastern port town did not seem to have such a high encore rate, but it was just lucky. When asked, the feeders did do safety checks many times. She usually said she would be attacked about a few times.

I suppose that's why I was able to go hunting for Merchiole right after my return. I had less wear and tear than I had fought.

It's good that the entrance to the cave is safe, but it's because of that terrible smell.

The professor, who didn't want to stay there long, hastily hurried his party and urged him to leave the cave to fight the monsters.

After a while, when I thought I could no longer smell bad, a herd of pig-like monsters appeared.

As the name suggests, it looks like a two-legged pig, but in the distance it looks like a group of naked ossans. I felt a threat in a direction that I don't see much in the Central Continent.

I feel unspeakable anxiety about each holding a primitive weapon like a stick in my hand.

It was said that there were many pigs around the east entrance and exit, but they also exited on the south side. It's like a goblin on the central continent, anywhere on the continent.

"You're out! Lord Merchiore, we're here!

"Ah! First of all, they'll know what we're capable of. Um! Let's go!"

Saskatchewan took the knife out of nowhere and threw it at the leading pig.

The knife pierced the pig's forehead so smoothly that he could hear the sound of it, he quickly earned a kill count. The knife itself seems to be made of good material and carefully crafted. It seems to be designed specifically for throwing. It also boasts Saskatchewan skills and technology. Let's just say I have something to say. It's a delicate question of whether the professor can avoid the knife if he eats it now. It won't kill you where it hits, but if it hits you in a hurry, you may take less than laughable damage.

While the party was impressed by the vibrant technology, the yogi had indeed fired three arrows.

Noteworthy are its fast firing capability and accuracy.

It is not a skill in itself. It must be the person's technology. I was choosing a power boost for my skills.

The three arrows shot straight through the pig's eyes, killing three pigs instantly.

Saskatchewan ran the nilcon as it was, causing the last remaining fifth pig to pass by and flash a knife.

After Nilcone on the sasquatch ran away, the pig's neck flew with a flash of delay, and the pig who lost his head fell down while spraying blood.

The battle is over.

It is a terrible combat force.

Pigs are certainly not that strong. That said, it's not weak.

Looking at the "appraisal", is it as strong as Hobbgoblin fighters in the central continent? Once upon a time, a medium player, now a beginner, managed to fight one-on-one. The race name was still Oak.

Defeating it without suffering is not a big problem in itself. So many of the top players will be able to do it.

The anomaly is that all attacks were critical.

So under a single blow, they're sacrificing all the orcs.

Unnumeric combat power that Rares occasionally talk about.

I see. Is that so?

Like a professor, there were strengths that could not be reached simply by raising talent levels.

"─ ─ Excellent!

It was also felt by the Merchiole I saw next door.

He approached the two robes with applause, embracing each and celebrating his good fight.

"Asking me to teach you is enough to be humble! You must have overtaken me in such a hurry! Instead, I'd rather hang my head and beg for advice!

You mean it.

Feed and pacification also changed from before, staring at the two with respect.

I stuck a nail on the professor because the expected line of sight was about to fly.

It is troublesome to be misunderstood that you are from the same continent, but professors can't fight like that.

After that, he hunted the orc herd several times and returned to the underground city as the sun tilted.

Judging by the high encore rate, it seems that the Western continent is like a monster realm throughout the continent.

The eastern coast still seems to be better off, but as soon as it enters the back, it turns into a demon.

If we were to secure human habitat in a huge dungeon, we would certainly have to hide underground like this.

It was necessary to find out whether the entire underground city was a safety area, but at least it did not appear to have a safety area on the ground.

Instant safety areas that sell or are made anywhere in the world are a necessary item on the continent.

If many players reach this continent, sales will grow.

The yogis who returned to the castle no longer had to hide themselves, and the robe took off and went to the inventory.

Melkiole, who saw their appearance from the inside, was stiff for a moment, but immediately resumed to respond with a smile. Excellent self-control from the professor's point of view. It does not appear that Date controls this underground kingdom.

Until then, however, I felt closer by holding and embracing my shoulders, but that kind of thing disappeared after that.

The professor, who thought he was more common sense than he said in the SNS, reflected on the lack of vision he saw.

At the same time, I was relieved that the aesthetic sense would not change even if the continent changed.

Perhaps most of it was thanks to the fighting power of the yoichi, but it was very disappointing that the professors were respected together because they appeared from the central continent.

I was given access to the castle's library.

Or there may be some kind of aim, but it's not a big problem. What happens when you give physical contact to a professor who is a player and a member of Magnum Melm?

The library is not as varied in volume as a country in the central continent, but it still housed a significant number of books.

With Merchiole and the yawyches out hunting, as in the days ahead, the professor went into the library and talked about the book with the young calligraphy elf, who was probably attached for surveillance. We talked, or the professor usually talked unilaterally. I haven't even heard the name of the young elf.

After a while, when the professor went to the library, the young man who had always been with him stopped showing up and instead had an old dwarf.

For the professor, there was no particular feeling for the elf youth, so even if the person you spoke to changed, it would be a good idea. I kept talking about what I thought.

The books in the library were mostly about the history of the continent and the human state that once existed, which seems to have already perished.

From these documents, it seems that this underground kingdom has a fairly old history. I couldn't find any literature on the underground kingdom itself, but I can imagine the length of the country's history at a time when there are books written about other countries.

It's probably because there's no literature on the underground kingdom, even though they're still there.

Merchiore said that this underground kingdom was built to protect mankind from threats on earth, but I doubt it.

However, it did not seem to hide anything other than historical information, and there were some literature on the underground kingdom and the surrounding situation.

It seems that the interaction with the Central Continent was originally small, and there were some documents describing the reason.

It is said to be the sea separating the central and western continents, the Canaloa Sea, but it is home to many marine monsters. It is certain that they are an obstacle to navigation, but there are other reasons.

The monsters living in the Sea of Canalore are not as strong as in the Great Aegean Sea, and they do not seem to be large in size, so if you read the timing as the professors came across, it is not so difficult to sail.

There is no doubt that reading the timing is an important piece of information, but it is no wonder that the Chamber of Commerce, which monopolizes the information, trades more heavily.

Commercial exchanges between materials of monsters that do not exist in the Central Continent and metal products refined in the Central Continent can yield great wealth. If you build a fleet of ships and do it on a large scale, it won't be a dream to grab a thousand dollars.

Nonetheless, the reason why no one does so.

It is the presence of Canalkia, the maritime kingdom that governs the Sea of Canaloa.

Marine kingdom Canalkia is dominated by Merisand of Territou Oannes, Queen of Merrow.

In context, Territo Oannes is the name of the race, and Merisand is the name of the individual.

The literature also seems quite old, and I don't know if the same person still controls it today.

It seems that Merlot is a so-called mermaid and there are only women. I think that is no longer synonymous with the absence of gender, such as the professor, but the great Aegean Sea east of the central continent has a country of fishermen with only a man named Marman.

The literature spells out that if the east were a man and the west was a woman, the two species would have been very bad friends, and if there was no central continent between them, there would have been war and destruction in the old days.

I wonder how they reproduce.

Anyway, the small size of the trading vessel has a great influence on the Kingdom of Canada.

This army of the Kingdom of Canalkia is attacking many ships as they pass.

According to the literature, the Kingdom of Canalkia seems to have a culture that worships sunlight as sacred, and the flotilla that blocks it is abhorrent.

If there were one or a few ships to sail on, they would have been missed in exchange for jewelry and other decorations, but I wonder if the captain did that without the professor's knowledge at the time. Or is it a lost culture now?

I am very curious whether these contents are true or who heard them from who, but it seems certain that we are solemnizing a large fleet for those reasons anyway. Regardless of authenticity, it is no doubt difficult to build a large convoy as we sail to steal the eyes of the oceanic monsters.

Merchants have an unexpected tendency to take charge of examinations.

Even a few eyebrows and spits would have prevented the fleet from taking the risk of destruction.

That's how the trade continues until today.

Although there is no literature detailing the kingdom of Marman in the eastern sea due to distance, there are many other literature describing the Canary Sea.

The tribe of the Queen of the Kingdom of Canalkia, Territou Oannes, is described as one of the world's most feared beings, and it probably represents what we call a modern-day catastrophe. Fear of the world would mean that a world announcement has been made.

This expression varies from literature to literature, and there are various rhetoric such as being monitored or warned, but what is common is that it is the information brought about by the world.

Today, in the Central Continent, world announcements are called gods and are said to be brought about by God.

Were there any notions of God when these documents were written? Or is it another reason?

"─ ─ Don't you think it's really interesting? By the way, I wonder what it was like on this continent in modern times." Spirituality "skill, I guess. I wonder what kind of treatment is given to the information brought about by it. I wonder if it is still perceived to be due to the world. By the way, in our continent, it seems to be brought about by the presence of God."

Reading numerous literature and talking to elf youth and old dwarves, the professor did not call it the "Central Continent" or the "Western Continent."

I don't think that's what we call it on this continent.

It's only natural to think about it.

Who likes to call their own continents, such as those west of other continents?

There is little interaction across the sea, so the opportunity to call on each continent has not arisen and, as a result, we have spent the day without a name.

"Even on this continent, it is said to be by God. But our Lord is not an uncertain man such as God. Perhaps the concept of God came from the continent of the professor."

"I see. That culture has been imported. Languages are common, and I don't think it's strange that things like that should be done more vigorously. Does the fineness of the AC interfere with that? Culturally, the impact was only imported and exported by concepts such as strong gods.

By the way, "

I knew for a long time that my partner had been replaced by a shriveled old dwarf from a young handsome elf, but I didn't care because it didn't matter. It's about time you introduced yourself.

"I wonder who you've been talking to me for a while. Oh, my name is Ursus. I am a scholar in the Central Continent. It's life work to look at old literature like this, or to look at monsters and humans. I've been working on a little bit of Alchemy lately."

"Thank you very much for your patience. I haven't heard anything for days, so I thought perhaps you weren't interested in it.

(12) My name is Mauricio Argento, and I believe it belongs to Merchiole. It's like an assistant. Speaking of which, you're a miscellaneous clerk. I was told to take care of my guests on behalf of my busy Merchiole. "

How vigilant or important is Merchiore to the professor?

Ask this surveillance guy.

And whether or not Merchiole, a human race, is using this old dwarf race as a "mission".

By clarifying this, you can also reveal one end of Merchiore's strength.

I see, I see. "Thank you very much."

The quickest way to find out if the NPC is "on mission" or not is to kill them without revealing this tag to them.

But there are times when you can't kill someone.

In that case, you can actually activate "Mission". If an error occurs and you fail, you may already be part of someone's family, and if not, no one will be 'on mission'.

Doing this in a place where others have eyes could suddenly and unnaturally daunt the other person if it succeeds. It is a hand that cannot be done without two people like this, but the effect is excellent.

"Ho ─ ─"

"... it worked. Aren't you his family? I wonder if it's because the race is different.

Now, will you tell me more about the miscellaneous clerk and your official title and job description, as well as about this country and its king and what you just said about "our Lord" ─ ─ "
