Episode 72: Hertania Valley Opening Operation.

"It's wide, but it's really barren wilderness."

The “Hertania Gorge”, which the Earl of Baumeister received in exchange for a reduction in the settlement, is wide anyway.

The almost rectangular area is dominated by rocks and wilderness where even vegetation does not grow, and there are many mountains without rocks.

In addition, there was a rupture of about 100 meters wide and 100 meters deep running almost 100 km east and west in the center, and the land was not suitable for agriculture even if it was not a demon area.

In fact, the Hertania valley is the enclave of Blois, near the border between the east and the south.

According to a book written during the period of the ancient magical civilization, this is a dense zone of deposits where many mineral resources sleep.

In the ancient document, the kind and location of the minerals that can be collected were also described, and the fracture in the center is almost like a mineral deposit of some sort.

It is originally described that the rupture itself was widened by mining.

For some reason, ancient magical civilizations abandoned the Hertania valley, but the powers who later suppressed it have all failed to make effective use of this treasure mountain.

It goes without saying that the Blois Frontiers, as well as a number of other noble families, and the royal family had long sought to open up here.

Every failure makes a lot of sacrifice, “Can you really open it up? Nowadays, even adventurer guilds have settled on the reputation of saying, "Because it is reckless, it is better not to invade."

Because of that, adventurer prep schools and other places had not already been conducted if information was disclosed.

Tell it badly, it may be a measure to prevent young adventurers who are adventurous from recklessly invading.

Because I did not even know the existence of the Hertania valley before adulthood.

Katalina knew because she was looking for a place where she could earn her credit.

"Did you know Blantark?"

"It's just a name. In the past, many adventurers dreamed of getting rich with this opening."

We were the best in arbitration negotiations, and we were standing on a rocky ridge overlooking the Hertania Valley in Henrik's small magic airship.

"There is no sign of living things."

"I'm standing here. Is there a stele standing there?"

"Yes"

An unengraved stone monument stood at the point where Mr. Blantárk pointed.

"Ell's shaven. Try to cross that line just a little bit."

"Yes"

When Elle goes over the monument and goes a step further as Blantaak told me, I immediately detect a reaction that seems to be a demon.

"El!"

"know!"

Suddenly, a wolf jumps out of the rock and jumps at Elle.

If you look closely, the wolf seems to be made of rock.

"A rock golem?"

Consecutively, two wolves jumped out, and three rock wolves attacked El.

It was out if my sword arm was out, but El was cutting down the wolf one after another so as to dance with a time difference.

The rock wolf seems to stop working when its head and heart are cut off, just like ordinary creatures.

Three piles of rocks are completed, and El returns from there picking up marble-sized magic stones and ore-like stones.

"Oh yeah. It was a good sword. I have to sharpen it later."

El sighs looking at his sword, whose blade has been chipped.

"Well, that's why."

From the sacrifice of the past, a stone monument was built to show the border with the area, and the surrounding area is a rocky mountain and a wilderness, so there are no people to approach.

If you step inside the boundary line, mysterious rock beasts will attack you and you will get magic stone and ore when you defeat it.

"Vell. What is this ore?"

"Uh. Low quality iron ore."

"Dah-oo! It doesn't fit!"

When the ore's components were searched for in "Analysis", it was found that the iron ore had a low content.

The quality of magic stones is also extremely low.

However, only three were cut, and the rather expensive sword that El usually uses was sharpened again.

"In other words, even if you defeat them, the fruits will be zero, not even zero."

It is not suitable as a hunting ground for adventurers. If Elle stays in the territory for a longer time, dozens, hundreds, and thousands of rock monsters will be attacked.

"If you join the army to mine the deposit, you will be surrounded by rock monsters.

Blantaq says that the remains of a decayed army remain a little deeper.

Recovery is dangerous, so it seems to be left as it is.

"According to ancient documents, there is a large Mithril deposit."

Metal is indispensable for the production of high-quality weapons and magic tools, and its price has remained high since it is not always enough.

Some high-level wizards, including me, can add silver to magic to make them, but the amount is very small.

Existing mines are also forcibly mining low-content materials.

Naturally, the cost increases for the trouble.

A newly found mythril mine in our territory says, "Start mining anyway! ], And the kingdom said that it just brought the operation ahead of schedule.

"Whether to get a large-scale mithril deposit or to annihilate it. It's a hard choice.

"What"

"Why is Carla here?"

The ruling negotiations between the Blois and the Baumeisters should have ended, but for some reason Karla was following us without leaving us.

"This is because the arbitration negotiations between the Breichrader and Blois frontiers have not been completed."

"Is she a prisoner of the Bleichrader Frontier?"

"Half. The other half is persuaded and taken prisoner by Elle's shaven, so the Count of Baumeister also has the right."

"The interests in that area are severe."

"Ransom is also an important source of income."

No way, you can't divide a person in half.

That's why it is dangerous to place Carla in a place that is only for men, so it is kept at home.

So when we headed to the Hertania Valley, she was with her, and El was still talking to her happily.

Ell, who is in love with her, is delighted to be with you.

"Elvin's sword is a great skill."

"Well, nothing big compared to Carla's bow."

Praised by Carla, Elle stretched under her nose.

"But the Blois admitted it well."

"Even if it's over there, it's useless, but if you go with the Earl, you have the potential."

"Yes. I love Carla."

"I guess her brothers are confident. Carla's daughter is beautiful, no matter who she is."

Sure, she is as beautiful as Elise and Katarina.

It has a rather modest impression, and many men in this country will be willing to make a wife.

"What do the Counts think?"

"I think it's beautiful ..."

There is no doubt that she is a beautiful woman, and in fact her atmosphere was similar to her in school.

So I thought it was dangerous, but I don't really have much romance.

First of all, I was surprised at the talent of the bow and had a little respect, so that feeling did not come out.

"Is that kind of thing?"

"And something is bad for Elle ..."

There is no one in the count of the Baumeister who does not notice his feelings after seeing Elle's attitude toward Carla.

It's obviously a misplaced love, but since I don't want to grab Carla, I have more time to watch from far away.

"He. Do you know your position?"

"I know, I guess I'm on fire."

"Klaus ..."

It was Klaus who had interrupted me and Blantark.

Actually, I knew.

Klaus is doing something like advice to Elle.

It's suspicious at the time of being a Claus, but he will certainly not imitate Ell to suggest anything wrong.

Jewel couldn't accept it.

But, the smell and suspicion will come out.

"Are you cooking Ell and aiming for the mess of the Baumeister?"

"I don't think anyone will listen if I plot it in the current situation."

I always felt like this, but in fact, some of my disgusting attacks helped Claus.

No matter how he repairs, he's responsible for the rebellion, so it's easier for me to work while being disliked by criticism.

"What about that?-And what about Elle?"

"It's easy"

Successful opening of the Hertania valley by the Count of Baumeister, further pushing the Blois into a dire situation.

In that case, the Blois may relax the conditions of Carla's marriage.

"It's likely, but do you want to talk to Ell?"

Other central nobles, or other eastern nobles to rebuild the Blois family that has lost their momentum.

Because there are many other candidates.

"It's a high possibility, but at the moment it's just clinging to it. And I think there's more pulse than I thought. After all, Carla came with Wendelin."

At the moment, I want to get in the way of development rights by marrying myself around.

Then, the losses from the conflict could be recovered.

`` It may be a strategy to impress other nobles by putting it near Mr. Wenderin ''

"Is it already my hand or that?"

"I don't think so, but they may have clarified the will of the Blois family."

The Blois family wants to send Carla to the Count of Baumeister.

Your head is good as much as possible, but if you are in trouble and you are poor, you may be a vassal.

Ell, especially, is a close friend of mine and I think he should be the target.

Yes, Ell is now my favourite.

I'm not saying, but people around me think so.

"I feel like my eyes are very pale ..."

Nevertheless, Elle still has to work in the Hertania Valley as a vassal of the Count of Baumeister.

I needed to raise my tension in hopes of getting married to Carla.

"Aside from Elvin, is there any chance of opening the Hertania Valley?"

"It's pretty. It takes a bit of preparation. After that, will it take a few days to recruit my strength?"

"I'll wait here for a while."

The Baumeister army, less than a hundred in all, will set up a position near the border of the Hertania valley and wait for support.

The Hertania valley, which was handed over from the Blois family by ruling, included a barren crag that was not part of this demonic territory, so there were no restrictions on what we could do in it.

The area outside the area where the rock monsters come out when you step into the Hertania Valley has also been certified as an area that is not recommended to intrude to prevent anyone from stepping in.

Most of them are rocky mountains and wilderness where no grass can grow properly, and mineral resources are not available there, so they were treated as dangerous gluten in the Hertania valley.

Now it seems that no one comes in.

"In such a wilderness, even goats will not grow. Agriculture is out of the question, and it seems that the priest went in and searched for mineral resources ..."

It was just a rocky mountain, and it was transferred to us as a bonus in the Hertania Valley.

"Then, you have to take countermeasures against intruders in case this area is opened."

"The Earl is very confident."

"Otherwise, you won't win here until you reduce the settlement."

I take Blantark and Katarina to magically build a rock fence on the border with other noble territories.

“Because it belongs to the Count of the Baumeister, no strangers enter here! But when they were working silently on rocks and other materials, the other residents of the noble territory who looked outside looked at us with suspicious eyes. .

"I don't need that place even if I don't claim so much territory."

Even if there is a lot of deposits, if you can't get into it and find it, it's nothing but a pictured rice cake.

The fact that the Blois family transferred the sovereignty easily was a proof that the property was inferior as the reduction in the settlement was more attractive.

"But, no matter how many fences you make, it's not going to end ..."

It takes time because the wall surrounding the Hertania valley, which covers about 23,000 square kilometers, including the glue allowance.

It was only a matter of roughly surrounding and claiming sovereignty, but after the release of the Hertania valley, full-scale construction and vigilance will be required to prevent ore thieves.

"Is it really open?"

"Was Katarina planning an opening before?"

"I did, but no matter how I calculated it, I gave up because it was unlikely to win. I knew it was overwhelming."

One or two excellent wizards seemed to have noticed that even if they fired wide-area advanced magic and slaughtered hundreds of monsters made of rock, they would spring in from one to the next, making it difficult to invade.

"In the first place, the generation principle of the golem-like rock monsters is unknown."

"There is a helper who knows that."

"really?"

"The explanation comes after a strong helper comes."

"I could immediately imagine who would come ..."

A few days later, the fence-building was almost finished, and I returned to Honjin, where a "strong helper" was watching the Hertania Valley drinking tea brewed by Elise.

"I heard from rumors that the mysterious monster made of rocks is in the Hertania valley, where rampants are rampant.

A powerful helper was, of course, a guru.

Have a good name for "Humanoid Final Battle Weapon" in Helmut, and ask him to participate in the opening operation.

"It's been a long time. Guru"

"It's been a long time! Earl Baumeister would have been glad to be stormed in a dispute with the Blois frontier, but one was boring!"

"(Boring ...) It's a dispute, so I had a lot of spare time. Did you get what I was asking for?"

"I received it from my Majesty with permission. It was originally found by Earl Baumeister, and it was fine because I had already seen it."

"Are you already overlooked?"

Katarina was tilting her head, calling a meeting that it would be better for everyone to talk.

Participating members are me, guru, Blantaq, El, Elise, Ina, Luise, Vilma, Mauritz, Thomas, Claus.

Speaking of your usual face, it was exactly that.

"First of all, I got the Hertania valley on condition that the settlement was reduced."

That was after you captured that upside-down murder.

I was reading a book in the study of Count Ischlberg in the spare time and wrote about the Hertania Valley.

"At the time, it was a Blois frontier, so I wasn't very interested."

If you were asked to open it, you wouldn't have received it unless it was a good reward, and you didn't even want to open it before that.

They didn't actually ask me for release.

You probably thought it was impossible.

It may be that Breichrader wasn't willing to obstruct him even if he asked, or he didn't even have the intention to open it from the beginning.

"After that, it was harassment of my parents' house and an invitation to a barren dispute. That's where I thought something would return."

"The Blois family sold her poorly treated Hertania valley to Wendelin at a discount."

"Such a thing"

"Don't you think that Elise's rock monsters in the Hertania valley resemble golems of upside-down slaughter?"

"I think so except for breeding."

"However, 'It looks like it's breeding' is run on a system similar to the Golem's unmanned repair workshop, which was upside-down and killed."

"In other words, a defense system to prevent burglary from this Hertania valley!"

The teacher brought an old book.

There is a man called "My Work Catalog" by Earl Ischlberg in that study.

"Unlike archeological sites, the Hertania valley is large. And because of its natural environment, metal golems can erode over time!"

It takes time to maintain in an artificial studio because of the large number.

Parts with severe deterioration had to be replaced, and there was a risk that the availability of the defense system would gradually decline over the years.

"So there is a monster-shaped golem made of rock."

Being a working stone, the body is made of rock that can be found anywhere in the Hertania Valley.

The mixed ore seems to be a coincidence in location.

"Because the numbers are aligned, wide-area defense is possible!"

"Yes!

"What is it? Miss Luise"

"Where did the magic stone come from? I guess the golem should have a crystal of an artificial personality. When Elle defeated, there was no such thing ..."

"Sure, only magic stone and ore were recovered."

When he defeated the rock monster, he examined the debris, but could not find any fragments of the artificial personality.

"The reason is simple: there is a Lord in this Hertania valley, which operates all the rock golems!"

According to Count of Ischlberg's My Workbook, a giant rock dragon made of rock and ore, the Rock Gigant Golem, sits in a crack in the center of the Hertania Valley.

"Conversely, it can be said that the Golem in the Hertania Valley is the only rock Gigant golem."

Inside the Rock Gigant Golem, which is made of rock and is over 100 meters long, contains a huge artificial personality crystal that simultaneously manipulates many rock monsters.

If an intruder is detected from outside, it will intercept according to its size, and if the number decreases, it will recover to a number that can be controlled.

The appearance of the breeding may be a strange stake due to the genius of Earl Ischlberg.

"What about magic stones?"

"There is a hint at the point where the Rock Gigant Golem sits!"

An old book stated that he was dared to sit on a huge mythril vein.

"I've heard from Vell that mythril is created because of the large amount of magic added to silver."

As Iena says, the mythril veins have a high magical power and have many demonic areas.

The silver there gradually changes into mythril while absorbing magical power over time.

"Is the Rock Gigant Golem sitting at a magical point and artificially purifying magic stones from it?"

"It's like that!"

It was a golem made of rock, but since its number is like a force, there is no difference in strength between a wolf, a boar and a bear.

Flightable Otakas and Wyverns can fly and have similar movements.

It's not as strong as the real thing.

"But the numbers are staggering."

"Left, number is a threat, as Miss Ena says!"

Even if you are confident in magic and destroy thousands of bodies a day, the damage has already been recovered the next day.

"It's a threat to general soldiers!"

Even if you attack with thousands of troops and destroy thousands, the human troops will not be intact.

Where the number has decreased due to war deaths and wounds, the same number of forces as yesterday will be attacked.

With this, you could not succeed in opening.

"The old book mentions the performance of the Hertania Gorge Defense Golem Device!"

On a page of an old book opened by the teacher, this was stated:

The Rock Gigant Golem sits deep in the valley where magic is stored and cannot move.

The giant has a giant artificial personality crystal that controls up to 100,000 rock golems.

In addition, it also has a built-in device that stores magic power to produce low-grade magic stones that are the core of rock golems.

The production capacity of magic stones is about 5,000 a day.

When the number of golems decreases, the artificial personality crystal tries to compensate for the decrease.

The rock gigant golem produces magic stones outside the body, and once the outside golems swallow it, they split the small golem using the rocks that make up themselves.

It looks like it was born, but it is actually split, and a child born in the same shape as the parent enlarges its body with the surrounding rocks.

It may also look like you are eating rocks.

"Is it a completely self-contained defense system?"

That's why it would have been working until now.

"Finally, the mystery has been solved, but that doesn't mean it can be immediately released in the kingdom."

Opening the Hertania gorge is actually very easy.

Crush the giant crystals of the artificial personality inside the Rock Gigant Golem.

Because the crystal of this artificial personality is the source of the rock gigant golem and the rock golems, if broken, the golems will become just rock masses.

"The method is simple. The means is extremely difficult ..."

As Elle said, he had to break through up to 100,000 golems and reach the Rock Gigant Golem.

"The means are difficult, but the Hertania Valley was originally from the Blois."

No matter how much you are in the kingdom, you can't afford to go to a property owned by the Blois family.

As Katalina said, this conflict was a great opportunity.

If the Blois remained unaware of the value of the Hertania valley, they could pick it up later in the arbitration negotiations, saying the kingdom would bear some of the settlement, and ask us to release it later. Because it was.

"The Majesty had a bitter smile. He had been taken over by Earl Baumeister."

"From the point of view, it was helpful to die in that underground labyrinth. Even if you open it up, you will be motivated if it becomes your own."

So, this time, the same party members have changed their positions.

The main member who enters the Rock Gigant Golem is that I, Count Baumeister, has been asking for the adventurers of great skill.

Because it was troublesome to divide the interests of the mine, the success fee was predetermined at 100 million cents.

"It's difficult, but it's an extraordinary reward."

Because it is 10 billion yen in Japanese yen, it is not a rare reward.

"Mr. Blanc Turk, will you undertake it?"

"Because the mansion has told me to take it."

Considering what happened after the release, Blaichrad, the magician who holds the Bleichrader frontier, has no choice but to undertake.

This is because it is not possible to operate this vast Hertania valley mine exclusively with the Countess of Baumeister, so considerable work must be outsourced.

"Some are secretly backed by His Majesty and the Commerce and Industrial Lord."

As a kingdom, I want to get a bit of interest in the Hertania Valley, which was taken away from me earlier.

I have ownership, but I want some interest in mining, security, refining, transportation, etc.

As a member of the Baumeister family, bitting the royal family into his / her right can be a bouncer that the Blois family can use after the liberation.

If you completely monopolize, there is a problem, so we thought of a way to make everyone happy.

I didn't know if the Blois house was there.

"The group who can't fly using magic moves here."

"Such a thing"

Elle, Ena, Vilma, and Elise will be part of the Baumeister family and will be involved in the perturbations.

The main member who destroys the Rock Gigant Golem flies in the sky and rushes straight into the target.

In the meantime, the ground movement group was entering and exiting the borderline, giving it a role to attract the rocky golems on the ground.

"Vell-sama"

"What? @ Vilma"

"Small number of movements"

According to the sources, golems have 80,000 objects on the ground and 20,000 flying objects.

Indeed, Verma pointed out that the perturbations of less than 100 people were severe.

"Because I'm also calling for support. Before that, it's a bit of battle training."

Preserve the magic power as much as possible and destroy the golem on the path efficiently.

To do that, I wanted to see how much magic those golems could break.

It is better for Yodo Gumi to know the strength of the golems.

For that reason, Rush Gumi starts from the sky, and Yodo Gumi waits for the golems from the ground, and starts fighting training to defeat them.

"According to an old book, a rock gigant golem produces 5,000 magic stones a day! Therefore, if you defeat it any more, the recovery will not catch up!"

"Guru shouldn't say anything difficult ..."

Lell checks the sword.

As soon as the mentor wore the minimum “magic barrier”, he rushed into a flock of Otaka- and Wyvern-shaped rock golems that he purposely provoked and called.

"Sure, it's just not as strong as it looks!"

"It's as good as ever ..."

Simultaneously, the golems are crushed one after another with fists and kicks that combine magical power, and a small snake-shaped tornado magic is created and thrown toward a slightly distant target.

When a small tornado hit, the target golem was broken apart, and the shattered fragments also attacked the surrounding golems like a shot, spreading the destruction.

"Mado armor is not adopted in terms of magical power consumption, but it is not as strong as a dragon, so it will only destroy objects on the path as efficiently as possible!"

"Let's reduce the number by engulfing more than one without releasing powerful magic."

"understood"

"I understand."

Me and Katarina, in turn, were hitting a small tornado magic on a Wyvern-type golem under the guidance of Blantaq.

When hit, the golem will shatter, causing debris to hit the surrounding golem, increasing damage.

"Is it okay with this magic fire?"

"Because there are no other types of monsters. That's enough. Rather, save your magic power as much as you can. I'll give it out. "

If you can't fly, you'll fall victim to the golems on the ground, and you'll have to leave the magic to destroy the rock gigant golem.

"Leave the stop to the Rock Gigant Golem to Louise's daughter. But it's possible to fail, so the other rush members will be as magical as possible."

In this strategy, five people will rush.

Carry it perfectly around Luise to the Rock Gigant Golem, and destroy her giant artificial personality crystal embedded in the Rock Gigant Golem with her full blow.

Then the other golems will stop their activities.

First, there is no need to force annihilation.

"Mr. Louise, you're in great shape."

In front of Catalina's gaze, Luise was seen moving in the air while crushing the heads of golems flying like flying eight boats.

Similar to creatures, golems fall to the ground if they lose their heads.

Luise was the best in terms of not wasting magic.

"later……"

"I noticed now! If the sword is a treasured Orichalcum Sword, it will not hurt one!"

Because of Carla's presence, Elle, a high-tensioner, slashed wolf-shaped golems one after another with Orichalcum swords, which he bought with gold obtained in the underground labyrinth capture.

Certainly, a sword made of Orichalcum should be as easy to cut as rocks and tofu.

"Don't say unreasonable! Such a thing. Can you hold it unless you're a great adventurer or a rich man?"

"I have it"

"Seriously!"

"Nice ..."

Maelitz was surprised when Elle actually began to fight with the Orichalcum sword, and Thomas had an enviable look.

"Erwin. Carla-sama supports you, so get out."

"really!"

"I'm cheering to see only Elvin."

"Get out before!"

"Carla's attention is Elvin's monopoly."

“Ahahaha! Die!

"(Moritz. Sex ...")

Moritz and Thomas had always been in front of Carla's case, but she was always on the front line due to her own skill and the performance of Orichalcum swords.

"Carla. Can you see me?"

"Okay, because it's getting a lot of attention."

"I will do my best!"

However, Moritz did not hate Ell, so he seemed to be retreating after some fighting.

"Ell. Come rest a little behind. Carla is waiting."

"Yes!"

Elle quickly returns to the rear, returning to Carla, who treats the injured with Elise, like a dog.

"Mr. Elvin. Are you OK?"

"Yes! I can afford it!"

She seems to be enjoying her break while receiving a towel and a glass of water from her.

"Moritz is good at using Elle ..."

The next time she searched for Ena, she showed off her nostalgic feat.

"Large spear wheel!"

It is a spear technique that Roderich showed when he was spinning, and he was not sure whether he was strong or not.

I didn't know when Eina learned, but this seems to be more useful than I thought.

"This is a technique for many people. I can imagine it ..."

A lot of golem debris was scattered around Eina.

"Where is Vilma?"

In search of Vilma, she was pulling an iron strong bow he had talked about earlier.

The arrow also seems to be made entirely of iron, and the released arrow penetrates and destroys several golems.

"I can draw that bow well ..."

I was once more uttered by her power.

I wouldn't be afraid to pull that iron bow.

"About three years ago, it was placed as a decoration in a daring weapon store."

Because it was made with decorations, the owner seemed to use it instead of the signboard and not think about selling it.

"If you say you can sell because you can, you say you can't."

He told me he would do it for free if he could close it, so he pulled it in front of him and got it.

"I hesitate with a human opponent, but it's a golem opponent, so it's convenient."

However, there are disadvantages.

The arrows were more expensive than normal ones, so they were used up quickly.

"War costs money"

Vilma exchanges weapons for battle axes, lamenting the truth of the world, wielding it and shattering more golems than bows and arrows.

Is it really like Vilma?

"Mr. Wenderin, it's about time."

"Ah"

It will be the limit, both in terms of number of people and time.

I was told by Katarina, and I lowered the sway group on the ground a little, and then completed a giant tornado magic using giant magical powers with the exception of Luise.

"What is union magic?"

"Spin Tornado!"

"Everyone is appropriate. Here is splendid."

"Tetragon tornado?"

"That's it! Mr. Wenderin. Please stop questioning!"

By the joint tornado magic by the four, all the golems that were visible were crushed by the tornado magic, collided with each other, and just dropped into the ground as a block of rock.

After that, a lot of rocks, ores and magic stones were left behind.

"Pick up!"

At the command of my sky, my army personnel, who had been descending, began searching for the remains of the golems all at once.

"Magical stones take precedence! Ore is just that!"

I don't have time anyway.

It is certain that reinforcements will soon come in more numbers than others.

"Vell! I found more than twice the number of Golem Corps! I'm coming here!"

"All forces withdraw outside the perimeter!"

I immediately ordered the withdrawal of all troops as Luise saw the golems rushing one after another.

Thus, the first day of the battle, which was conducted to gain experience in combat, ended safely with no deaths.

"How many magic stones?"

`` 2,156 ''

"Is this something ...?"

Defeat was not the purpose, but hearing the results of today shows that it is still difficult for troops to take a straightforward approach.

There is a reason that there are not many troops, but there is no point in defeating 2,000 a day because it has more recovery ability.

In addition, there is the reality that more than half of these two thousand bodies were magically killed.

"What do magic stones do?"

"Used to replenish the magicite consumed in the last wide area stun."

"So that's it"

Ell agrees with my answer.

All the magic stones I had had been emptied and the magical replenishment had not been completed yet, and since it was a low-grade magic stone, there was no other use for it.

"But it's a gemstone manufacturing device .... Count Ischlberg is a genius."

"Because of that genius, we are always in full combat."

Although it is low-grade, it has now created a magic stone manufacturing device that does not even grasp the clues to elucidate the formation process.

If possible, I want to capture it intact.

"I wish I could do it."

"I know."

As Luise says, if you fail with extra greed, you will not be able to see.

First of all, the destruction of the Rock Gigant Golem should be given priority.

"So how long do you keep fighting?"

"Until your friends arrive"

"Huh?"

In Operation , five of our magicians rush into and destroy the Rock Gigant Golem, but according to old books, the Rock Gigant Golem itself is not very strong.

Because the material is rock, it can be destroyed by magic if any of the five people reach and reach a certain level of magic.

"The question is what to do with the Golem Corps, which is controlled by the Rock Gigant Golem."

Since it is impossible in practice to destroy everything, we aim for a rock gigant golem by destroying only the minimum obstacles.

"We fly, so we only have to deal with the golems in the sky, but even if the ground group is near the rock gigant golem, it will hinder the destruction. That's why. "

"Only in the Counts of the Count of Baumeister?"

"Because I'm not enough at all, I'm asking for more reinforcements, so my guru has been asked to defeat him as an adventurer."

"Maybe that is ..."

A few days later, a total of four aerial fleets, floated by large magic airships, floated above the Hertania Valley.

Luise seems to be outspoken in the sight.

"Is this a reserve for a routed large magic airship?"

"That's right. Otherwise, I can't carry the numbers."

"I'm spending money ..."

If you open the Hertania valley anyway, you will seek various rights.

Then, at best, you should lend power to the kingdom.

"I'm the only one who pays me, and failing isn't that much damage."

"I can clearly see why the Blois frontiers disturbed backwards ..."

Although Roderich may not look good, the Royal Army has the money to gain training and combat experience, and the commanding officers and soldiers who can take part in the martial arts despite the Golem opponent.

In fact, as soon as I told this story to Military Lord Edgar, he was loaded with troops on a mage airship.

"I'm at the command of Military Edgar. I'm Alois von Willi Achilles, Commander."

Mr. Achilles, who led a total of 3,000 soldiers, was a serious bureaucrat-type person who looks like forty years old.

He is the head of the Hoi Viscount family and seems to be related to Earl Armstrong's family.

"It's a very fancy operation. By the way ..."

"Oh, yes. I'm preparing."

"As expected."

The reason that Viscount Achilles led the army in a hurry was that he had not prepared much for food and water.

Because there is no harbor, the large magic airship cannot be properly dropped off, and the soldiers are descending one by one on a rope ladder.

"You really came in a hurry."

"We've heard that our work is perverted, and the supplies are on-site, so let's release it quickly."

"why?"

"Although the Hertania valley has been formally transferred to Earl Baumeister in a ruling, more people will be thinking more if time has passed since our movement was known."

Viscount Achilles, who is also a nobleman, does not seem to believe in the sincerity of the Blois frontiers.

He stated that it was important to finish as soon as possible and turn it into an established fact.

"That's also true.

I hand over the bulk of the supplies I have to Viscount Achilles.

Sometime yesterday, a temporary depot was set up and left there.

"The army can't move without supplies. If you're prepared, it's surprisingly surprising."

Three thousand soldiers who came down from a large magic airship on a rope ladder quickly gathered together in groups and went to collect supplies.

It is to hurry up and start setting up bases and preparing meals.

"Golems are activated when people enter this perimeter, and stop attacking when they leave. It has been reported in advance, but it has a mysterious structure. I'm looking for a way. "

The Kingdom Army's 3,000 men, led by Viscount Achilles, repeatedly lured and hunted rock golems on the ground, moving in and out of boundaries.

"Don't chase. Don't forget to go outside before the numbers increase."

Unlike the Armstrong family and Military Edgar, Viscount Achilles calmly controls the army.

Although casualties had already occurred, Viscount Achilles says that this is within the expected range.

"If you don't want to die, don't be a soldier or adventurer."

Viscount Achilles was practicing diversionary training for production.

Their mission is to perturb the attraction of the ground golems when we enter.

"So, how about your supporters?"

"I will have it today and tomorrow."

The 3,000 kingdoms alone were not enough to mobilize, and they also requested reinforcements from nearby nobles.

"Count Baumeister. Help me ..."

Most aristocrats bordering the Hertania Valley have been hurt by the Blois in the conflict.

Despite being turned over by the Breichrader frontiers to take over for the damage, the debt remains if the Blois do not pay after concluding the ruling.

I was out of the army and took part in a diversionary mission because of my bad condition.

He had commissioned a mercenary job for the rewards of the Count of Baumeister.

"I don't really have any human resources ..."

"It's a territory noble and it's emerging.

The Royal Army and more than fifty nobles arrived in the Hertania valley, and they were divided into ten corps and repeatedly trained in the operation of the explicit operation.

Attract the golems across the border, hit them, and then escape.

When the golem disappears, it will provoke across the line again.

While seeking ways to attract as many golems as possible, he continued training to destroy it efficiently.

The period lasts for a week, and merchants who sell food and entertainment to them start to appear.

The Hertania valley was hit by a special demand for open operations.

"Now, will you start rushing?"

After the last meeting, the strategy starts.

From ten locations around the Hertania valley, troops enter and exit the perimeter and provoke the ground golems. To start.

Destroy the rock gigant golem at a stretch while eliminating only the shortest golems that fly in the sky.

"Mr. Blanc Turk. Is this the shortest entry point?"

"Isn't the Count also" detecting "it? The principal is in the middle of the Hertania Valley."

Accurately, it is in the middle of the deepest part of the rupture running in the center.

Rock Gigant Golem with no feet sits in the magic pool.

It is over 100 meters in size and has eight heads and eight tails at the rear.

Includes a huge artificial personality crystal that simultaneously manipulates 100,000 golems, and a device that can produce up to 5,000 magic stones a day, despite its low quality, and eliminates all enemies that have invaded the Hertania Valley.

It is a defense device as if it were alive by the genius magician of the ancient magical civilization, Earl Ischlberg.

"Is the head and tail eight?"

Does not move, but fires rock bullets from the head instead of breathing, and swings the tail to damage the enemy.

Because the base is made of rock, it is not as rigid as the Mithril Golem we fought before, but it seems that it will regenerate over time, so I could not despise it.

"I heard it a long time ago, it resembles the" Yamata Great Dragon! "

Similar to “Yamatano Orochi” in Japanese mythology, the legend of the eight-headed dragon still remains in this world.

The teacher knows that when you go to an adventurer-related school, you are taught in a basic classroom.

Whether or not they exist was unknown.

"I've been thinking for a while, but if you have eight heads, isn't it a" Nanamata Great Dragon? "

"Mr. Luise. I can't help but complain about such an old tradition. Rather, it's about time."

Katarina puts a squeeze in Luise's quibble.

"It's exactly what Katharina says."

While waiting for five men on a rocky ridge outside the perimeter, a battle of the Golem army, attracted by a mixed unit of the Royal Army and the Baumeisters, was underneath.

"Oops!"

"Ell. I'm excited. The reason is evil ..."

Luisé was not merciful to El, standing on the front and waving his treasured Orichalcum sword.

Elu's primary purpose is to keep his sword sharp, so he won't hurt his allies.

"Is the reason and the desire to show Carla a good place?

"Katarina is unforgiving ..."

"Every man of that year would be like that. See you soon."

Estimated 80,000 golems had gathered almost at the outer edge of the enemy in response to more than ten enemy invasions.

If you deal with all of this, you will be annihilated, but there is no need to do so.

Even if we fly at high speed and aim for the Rock Gigant Golem, it will not hinder the operation because it is already drawn to the outer edge.

However, the 20,000 bodies in the air were not moving much.

They seem to respond only to enemies invading from the sky.

"Is it 20,000?"

"I'm usually scattered all over the Hertania valley. I'll hurry to destroy the Rock Gigant Golem before we gather.

It is not necessary to destroy everything.

If the rock gigant golem is destroyed anyway, it will return to the rock mass, and if you spend too much time the operation will fail.

Blantaq was especially mindful of his guru.

"Please stay on the spot and don't be warrior. Guru"

"I'm a professional adventurer, but ..."

In such a case, the opinion of Mr. Blantark, who is also experienced, is respected.

The mentor also obeyed his opinion as an elder.

"Just a guy, just in case. Other guys."

"Roger that!"

"Leave it to me"

"Your arms will ring."

"Let's go!"

At the signal of Mr. Blantaq, the five rush into the Hertania valley with a "high speed flight".

In the formation, I and Katarina are two-top, with Luise and Blantaq behind.

The guru was playing the role of Lord to eliminate the chasing golem.

"Blantaak, there is no enemy behind."

"I would have failed if I had been chased at this point ..."

The golems in the air were hardly able to cope with us, as we were just approaching.

Because several bodies were in front, first make a spear-shaped tornado with magic and throw it.

The Wyvern-type golem that hit and the other bodies around it shatter and fall to the ground.

"I have to save my magic. Katarina."

Although the strategy should have been perfected based on the materials of the old books, since it is not known what will happen, the basic principle of the strategy was to preserve the magic power as much as possible.

"Of course. I have less magic than Wendelin."

Continued, he casts magic on the dozens of Otaka-shaped golems that Katarina began to see ahead.

"Tornado Break!"

Depending on the name of "Storm", a tornado suddenly occurs in the center of the golems ahead and rolls them up into the sky.

The golems who collided in the tornado were destroyed, damaged and dropped to the ground.

"I'm terrible. I want to attack something."

"Luise is sparing."

"I see ..."

Since you can't use any release magic, Luise's role is to make a strong attack directly on the Rock Gigant Golem.

Preserve the magical power as far as you can and stab the Rock Gigant Golem.

This is Luise's job this time.

"I'll give you mystery with all your strength"

"I think we can expect something (after all, is there anything like secret mystery?)"

"Vell. Please expect much. ''

Before the sortie, Luise was as usual.

"I have less golems than I thought ..."

Blantaq was tilting his head enough from the start of the rush.

According to an old book, the sky golems should gather more after this much time.

However, only five defeats of several to dozens of groups were not able to see the enemy much ahead.

"perhaps……"

"What is it?"

"Surprisingly, an artificial personality may be working."

If you keep flying further enough, you will finally reach the target point.

A huge rupture running through the Hertania valley.

There is a rock gigant golem sitting in the back, but there are over ten thousand golems waiting for us over the sky.

"Don't you realize our purpose?"

"If there are so many, you can't break it."

Since the Rock Gigant Golem is in a rupture, you must first eliminate those Golems.

Golems were gathering in the sky, where most of the 20,000 bodies were presumed to have gathered, at a density that did not make sense for the blue of the sky.

"The Earl. It's still within expectations.

"Roger that!"

While approaching the golems, I put out about ten magic crystals and hold them in both hands.

We were preparing for the ultimate high-level magic while focusing our attention.

"(Basically, this kind of magic is more scary.)"

After about 1 minute of storage, put both hands forward to activate the magic.

It took me two minutes in the previous Great Grand Battle, so I seem to be growing up.

"Burst Tornado!"

There is no need to chant, but it is also to let you know the mood and the timing of activation.

A giant tornado generated in the center of the golems, which were far away, was snarling, involving thousands of golems.

The golems collide with each other and are destroyed, and after a while the tornado disappears, the surrounding golems are involved and fall to the ground.

"Wendelin is better at such magic."

"That's right.

Because the opponent is a golem, there is no need to pay attention to the power as in the previous wide area stun.

"It looks like you've identified this as a threat to eliminate it."

Since about a quarter was destroyed at once, the golems began to move to eliminate us.

I was able to confirm that half or eight to eight thousand bodies came to this place.

"Another shot!"

This time, fire the non-elemental release magic used in the Dragon Golem battle again with both hands in front.

Although the power drops, when hit, it is blown back and collides with the golems behind and crushes each other.

It seems that the crowd was the enemy, and it seems that the number is priority and it is not very strong.

"I've seen it for the first time, but it's a powerful power."

Katarina also used tornado magic to destroy thousands of bodies, but she seems to have almost exhausted her spare magic stone.

"But the number of fractions is decreasing ... Isn't it increasing?"

Sure, it should have been reduced to about 5,000, but for some reason it has returned to double.

"Are you already resurrected based on magic stones?"

"Is 5,000 a day?"

According to the description of an old book, a rock gigant golem can produce 5,000 gemstones a day, pulling out gemstones from the buttocks, the golem takes it, and a small golem like a creature produce.

The small golem that is born grows up with the rocks around it.

I thought it was such an explanation, but if the damage suddenly increases, some process may be blown away.

"Because there is also material."

There are remnants of the golem that was dashed and fell to the ground earlier.

"Mr. Blanc Turk?"

"If you take the time, it may be bad."

The refining of magic stones may be limited to 5,000 a day, but if the stones can be preserved, they may continue to grow for some time.

Here, we needed to hurry up our strategy.

"From the depth of the tear, there is only one huge reaction and only a few hundred small reactions. It is faster to rush and destroy this!"

"Yes ... let's rush in. Guru!"

"Leave it!"

I again release a non-elemental release magic to reduce the number of golems, and at the same time the guru rushes into the golem swarm.

The guru wears the “Magic Barrier” and shoots with a fist on the head of the Wyvern-type golem that is heading.

The golem whose head has been broken falls as it is onto the ground.

Continue, kick the golem that attacks from behind with a kick, grab the tail of another golem, swing it, hit it against several bodies and destroy it.

"It's really strong. After all."

"I see ..."

It doesn't look like a wizard, but it's clear from everyone's eyes that it's overwhelmingly strong.

Blantaq and I are both surprised by the strength.

"In the sky, it's up to the guru to rush!"

"Roger that!"

The button should be added before the number has fully recovered.

When four people rush into the rupture, the rock suddenly jumps in front of you.

When playing with the “Magic Barrier” that had been set up in advance, the head of the rock dragon, which flew the rock bullets, roared ahead.

"Rock Gigant Golem!"

There were eight such giant heads as described in the old book, and they were trying to crush us by firing rock bullets from their mouths one after another.

In addition, there are hundreds of Otaka-shaped golems in this narrow breach, which will launch an attack here.

Unfortunately, there were many golems that were caught in a rock bullet from the head of a rock gigant golem and were destroyed, but it seems that they are not concerned about damage to their allies because they can make as much as they want.

"The goal is a giant artificial personality crystal inside the torso. I will destroy my head and move on."

The Rock Gigant Golem is huge, so you have to break your head and go forward to get to the torso.

I immediately hit the tornado with a spear-shaped magic and crushed the two, Katarina also manipulated a small tornado and killed two, and Blantark hit a dodgeball-sized tornado ball.

Blantaq continues to attack an Otaka-type golem, which creates a softball-sized bullet with a wind attribute and hits it against the head to destroy it.

Around ten wind balls always float around him and fly to destroy golems that threaten you.

The reduced amount of wind ball is refilled immediately and dances next to Blantaak.

It was terrible magic accuracy.

"I don't have much magic. I have to devise it. Two more!"

The Rock Gigant Golem has two more heads.

Because it is lying in the rupture, if you can break through the head, the torso will be attacked.

Are you worried?

The two heads continued to fire crazy rocks, increasing their rate of fire.

"Oh! It's already in the way!"

Katalina blows a medium-sized tornado and blows her head while playing rock bombs with "Magic Barrier".

You could now move forward.

"But, where is the weakness of this torso?"

"I don't know! I can crack it with my fist!"

Earl Ischlberg's old book did not even include the blueprint for the Rock Gigant Golem.

As long as it is built into the torso, it will have to be destroyed.

"Blantaq is also surprisingly appropriate ... Is he a torso or just a rock mass?"

It looks more like a rock mass that fills the fifty meters wide and hundred meters long, rather than the body.

Luise stands at a point near the broken head while tilting his neck, and with his magic, swings his fist down.

Is it the secret of the magical style?

Or is Luise's magic only strong?

I'm not sure, but Reto enters the torso within a radius of 10 meters and begins to break apart.

"Hit?"

"Sorry. Lost!"

Blantaq answers Luise instead, but you can see why.

"Mr. Wenderin! I have to destroy the crystal quickly!"

Apparently, the head repair was faster than expected.

Katarina prevented eight heads attacking while firing rock bullets from behind with a "magic barrier".

"Is that kind of thing!

Continuing, Blantark moves over us and begins to strengthen the “magic barrier”.

"The guru is alive but ..."

I was doing warriors alone and destroying golems one after another, but the debris was coming down.

"If there is no guru, the golem's army will come from above ..."

I can only put up with the rain on the rocks.

While saying that, Mr. Blantaq begins to hit the wind ball at the Otaka-shaped golem that the guru stalked.

"Luise, destroy me more and more"

"understood!"

Luise destroys the torso while moving forward little by little.

The front guard with the buttocks was mine, but rather, eight tails and dozens of Otaka-type golems are approaching.

"Are you assembling the golem core magic stone?"

"It looks like it!"

Blantaq answered while using the “Magic Barrier” to prevent the rock from raining.

Luise continued to shake her fist at the Rock Gigant Golem's torso while replenishing her magic power with her own crystal.

The torso is being destroyed one after another, probably because it is approaching the crystal of an artificial personality.

Eight tails, about 3 meters in thickness, swell like a whip and attack here.

In addition, a hawk-shaped golem comes in through the gap.

"The front is the tail, the back is the head and the top is the rocky rain! Luise!"

"Add the button at once! All the magic power to this fist!"

"Oh! Something looks amazing!"

When Luise concentrates while stretching one hand toward the heavens, the remaining magic of himself and the magic within the remaining crystallite gather.

"Have you collected more magical power than yours?"

What's great about Luise today is that ordinary wizards can't keep more than their magic power.

So when we laid Elias Stan over a wide area, we had to struggle with the speed of sucking magical power from magic stone.

However, Luise was collecting it with his fist, which raised several times his magic power.

"The reaction is a bit harsh, but as time goes on, I'm going to be poor. The ultimate secret of the magical style!" Big Bang Attack! "

The technical name was surprisingly solid, but the moment Luis hit the torso of the Rock Gigant Golem with a magical fist, a dazzling flash ran, cracks began to run in an incomparable range .

"Success! @Vell"

The torso, which was a block of rock, was all broken into fist-sized rocks, the tail that was attacking me, the resurrected head that was attacking Katarina, and the golems that were deployed in the tear They all fall into rocks and fall to the ground.

Apparently, Rock Gigant Golem was successfully destroyed.

"Amazing! Luise!"

I was impressed because it was a great technique I had never seen before.

"But I can't move a little ..."

It seems that the reaction to the body was great because it was a great technique.

I was immediately picking up and recovering Luise, which was fluttering on a rocky mountain.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm a bit sleepy just before my magic power is gone"

"I see. I did my best."

She praised Luise's head while stroking her, and she had begun to make her eyes a throne.

"Take the Vell and bring it home to reward you. Just hold the princess."

"I'll answer your request"

The wishes of the distinguished people cannot be reduced.

I will immediately reply to my consent.

"I'm just happy. I haven't been conscious for a while."

"Huh?"

I couldn't understand what Luise was saying for a moment, but soon the answer was clear.

That's it.

The rock gigant golem that controls all the golems is destroyed, and the golems return to the rock mass.

A large part of the golems flying in the sky were attracted by the guru in the sky.

And those golems all fall into rocks and fall to the ground according to physical laws.

Speaking of where we are, just where we are.

"Evacuation!"

I shout loudly and give evacuation orders to Blantark and Katarina.

"That's it! I can't afford the lingering victory!"

"Such later!"

While I am holding Luise as a princess, the three of them evolve to the sky while deploying the “magic barrier”.

On the way, hundreds of tons of rocks fell down like guerrilla downpours, even more powerful than the rocks shot by the head of the Rock Gigant Golem.

A lot of rocks fell at once, and the Hertania valley was also hit by a local earthquake, which was broken or cracked in many places.

"I managed to escape ..."

"I'm dying in the rain of rocks more than the Golem Corps and the Rock Gigant Golem."

Mr. Blanc-Taak, whose magical power was quite at his limit, was sighing of relief.

"It's already awful. Luise looks happy ..."

Louise, who was sleeping full of magic, had a displeased expression, and Katarina looked at it enviously.

"Does Katarina also want a princess?"

"What did Wendelin say ...? Later, just a little ..."

Katarina was still moody while making her face red.

"But I'm glad that the monk also trained under the guru. She's holding her Louise's daughter."

"In Blanc Tak, how much do I look for sprouts?"

Generally, I do not deny that there are many spellcasters in the wizard.

Leaders are rare exceptions.

"Well, compared to a guru."

"So, I'm that guru ..."

Another master, a guru who stopped thousands of golems alone, was even higher than we were floating above.

"Funny! It's our victory!"

No one was worried, but the guru did not suffer any injuries.

I was screaming a strange victory by myself, but when we found us, we came happily.

"The martial arts learned from Miss Louise was helpful. The muzzle armor was very helpful because of poor fuel economy. By the way, is Miss Louise out of magic?"

"Because the mystery exploded."

"It's that dazzling light."

When I explained the technique used by Luise, the guru listened with an impressed expression.

"How !! Despite the strong recoil, it is to release a magical power several times the amount of your own power into your fist! It is a perfect technique! By all means, you must tell me later!

"No. Stop it. If the guru releases it, this continent will collapse."

"It will be a little exaggerated."

"(No, I don't think it's exaggerated ...)"

"(Possibility is nothing but ...)

Katarina and I agree with Blanctag's Boyaki.

Although the opening of the Hertania valley was completed successfully, it should be noted that the master's mastery of “Big Bang Attack” was not completed due to the difficulty.

The peace of the world has been safely protected.
