1037 Moat: Snow Mountains Are Seriously Cold
Snow Mountain is seriously cold
SIDE: Labyris
"Heh. That was just ahead of your eyes and nose. This square."
This place I look around is often as big as this square looks on a mountain like this, and I think I can easily keep ten container bases.
Ma, this isn't a place where you can see the ground directly because of the snow, but unlike the unscrupulous hiking trails earlier, it's a good place to say it's flat enough.
Though it also feels like someone made it on purpose.
"Thanks"
"Thank you."
"Gogogo."
The rock ice golem that led us to this place is totally familiar and looks like we're having fun with Aslin and Firia on our shoulders.
Really, Athleen is a natural demon.
"Well, let's set up the container first and secure the campsite"
"Right. Guys, we're just gonna try harder."
"" Yes ""
"Okay."
I'm pushing a little bit more than I planned, and the base better be ready soon, so we're going to take out the containers quickly and make a final check out of each one.
Fortunately, magic was also available here, so it's really easy because I just had to install the container base that I put in the item box as is.
Yeah, the container facilities are working fine, too.
Well, all you have to do is store the supplies you need properly in the container for the warehouse.
"Yeah. It's like this."
So, check the quantity of supplies stored against the list.
We have as many supplies as we can explore in this hub for almost a month.
"Well, now we're ready, and next time we'll have a meeting for the future."
I am ready to go to the conference room container as I am in charge.
The containers are connected in a private corridor, so it's nice to not have to go out either way in this side of the snow.
Yesterday, it was a temporary installation, so there were only three containers, but six containers were connected as residential areas, warehouses, etc., and two research containers were installed as Aegel's research facility independently of that.
"Oh, have you finished offering all your supplies?
As I was moving through one of the container rooms, the door opened and Aegel came in.
"Yeah. Something I just lined up with supplies out of the item box. It won't take long. So, what about Aegil? You let the lab out once, didn't you?
"Oh. I'm almost done getting ready over here. Even so, in fact, the research subject will change what we need, and sometimes we know what we can look at at at that level of research facilities."
Well, I guess so.
Aegil and Comet's lab are always full of crap and all sorts of things.
But I have a few questions.
"I know it's still called research here, but now it's an investigation into Gaien and the underlying demons, right? So do we need a research container?
"You're investigating demons. If I had been able to get rid of it by the time I got here, I would have scattered the body and looked into it, because unfortunately, there are no results on the demons. So far, we've collected enough snow and rocks to find out how much magic it contains. Oh, and I just need a little sample from the rock ice golem that Aslyn handed me."
"Negotiate it with Aslin and Rock Ice Golem. Negotiating with demons is outside my jurisdiction"
"Right. And then there's Wyburn and Salamander, Hydra, who was in Cleana's information..."
"That demon is going to need to go more up there."
The members over there should probably be up there and in a warmer place.
It is expected to be near the fire escape.
While we talked about that, we went into the conference room.
This is a container prepared for the conference room, so there are also proper whiteboards and projections.
Not only that, but there's also a kettle and a tiny refrigerator to prepare drinks, which is exactly where it feels okay to meet here all the time.
"No, you're pretty well prepared for the meeting. Did Millie do this?
"No. You've made the other containers from the beginning so they don't take too long to prepare, right? It's been like this since we got out here."
"Hey, that's proof we're used to meetings. But I just have to be happy with this. I just have to be sad.... Speaking of which, where is Lord Shaw?
"Speaking of which, I don't see you."
Unlike us, she's not carrying containers, and she wasn't involved in setting them up. Where the hell are you?
"In the meantime, let's call the athletes out there. If Shaw wasn't in the container, he'd be outside."
"Right. They're on guard around them."
Yes, the athletes have Rock Ice Golem, so while we were setting up our base, we left it to guard.
Even so, well, I guess I'm just playing with the snow.
So the three of us tried it outside the container...
"Like this, is it?
"Yeah. That's right."
"Oh."
"It is. He's good."
Somehow, Shaw and Rock Ice Golem were paired up to make snowmen.
"What are all three of you doing?
"Ah, the Labyrinths."
"I'm building a snowman right now."
"Right. I'm building a snowman."
Yeah. You'll see that.
Ma, even Shaw is throwing out all the vigilance around and doing this with these kids...
"You were free."
"Yeah. Around me. I don't know, Ig and Faye have been saying nothing."
"So as we looked at the rocks around us, we were solidifying the snow."
"Ah, yes. Exactly. I did build a snowman, but I wasn't just playing"
I guess it really followed that they were building a snowman because the Aslins would never back down the job they were entrusted to do.
Well, there's no need for us to say anything about it.
It was nothing because I was properly vigilant with that.
"But you have no demonic reaction at all... Are you saying that Ig and Faye on air alert can't even confirm Wyburn?
He said, "Well, maybe it's that way."
Aslin points further to the summit as he says so.
If you look that way, it's not so loud, but it's still up there.
Yes, this place has also climbed a long time to reach the summit, but it is not yet a true summit.
Hey, I can make you realize that the world is so big.
"You said you could see the smoke rising from the top of the mountain, so maybe the Wyburns are over there."
"Heh, I see. Here, too, on the clouds already. You mean you don't usually see the fire escape?"
"Even if there's smoke, they're going to mistake it for a cloud. Plus, confirming Hydra is gonna break my bones."
Millie's right, it seems pretty hard to keep the enemy from noticing.
But if we were closer, we wouldn't be able to deploy a container base this relaxed, and maybe we should have been glad?
And if you're thinking about that, suddenly the wind bursts into your skin beautifully.
Ugh!? It's so cold.
The container keeps you warm, so it was a mistake to inadvertently cut the magic of maintaining your temperature.
"Sa, you're too cold. Ashlyn and the others are coming in because the base is ready. You think Rock Ice Golem's gonna listen to you?
"Yeah. I'm fine. Okay, I'll talk to you. Just wait."
"Ooh."
Yeah, you know exactly what Aslin says about that.
Well, I can't confirm the level or skill of being able to do something about the container because it's hostile.
Brrr!!
We immediately return to the room so that we can be driven away by another frequently blown wind.
- I couldn't stand any more.
"... I was playing Snow Mountain."
"... yeah. Seriously, it's cold. They took my temperature in an instant."
"... I guess the Earth is full of supermen with people challenging Snow Mountain without magic"
It's nothing but a suicidal aspirant to try a single mountain with just clothes and mountainous luggage in such an extreme world.
People on Earth.
Even if you don't have a level or a concept of status, you're sure to create a future where you challenge with that knowledge and courage.
"That's for sure already. Because Yuki was born a star."
"No, I think that's just a hobby."
"Well, I'll make you some warm tea anyway."
"Oh, and my share, please"
"My share, too, please."
"Yeah. Of course I'll have everyone's share. Wait in the conference room."
So I went to the kitchen to make some tea and make some sweets.
I really have enough tools.
Once again I can feel that this kind of preparation is important.
"If we were bad, we'd have had to work hard just to set up a tent in that snowy mountain."
Ugh, I'm just shivering from remembering the stinging cold earlier.
I still can't live in such a hell of a world.
"Well, I'm ready for some warm tea, and let's go back."
I went back to the conference room with a cup of tea that I could make...
"Oh, you're finally here. Come on, get some warm tea!
"Me too, please!
They're still cold. Aegel and Millie are all together, demanding tea as they tremble their bodies like Hina, who found the parent bird who brought back the bait.
"Yes, sir. Are there any Athleens?
With a bitter laugh, I first shrug the tea between the two of them, and I also take confirmation with the athletes sitting in their seats.
"Yeah. Yes, please."
"We drink!
"Yes. I'll have it"
So we prepare tea for everyone before we take our seats.
I breathe ho in a sip of warm tea, too.
"Huh. That's warm."
"Yeah. Really. Honestly, I'd love to have a warm drink and go to bed."
"I wish I could do that. But it doesn't... Well, we've secured the base for now. So, what are we going to do?"
"Uh-huh? Aren't you going to investigate now?
"Yeah, I'm looking for a guy named Gaien."
"Yes, that's right. Lord Aslin, Lord Phyllia is right. But first, you mean a discussion of where to look. As we have seen, this great mountain range is immensely large. So if you look hard, you won't find it."
Shaw's right, what we're about to discuss is a way to find traces of someone who might be a dungeon master named Gaen.
But...
"Are you being honest with me? I don't think it's possible to find any trace of Gaen in this snowy world, do you? Probably boned in either the foot forest or the middle belly forest."
I say clearly.
I don't see how Gaien could have gotten this far.
Even if we were getting there, we'd be buried in the snow, and we wouldn't be able to find it.
That's what I thought, but Millie laughed bitterly...
"In my opinion, at least we're likely to have reached this snowy mountain."
"Why?
"For once, though, Gaien was also a dungeon master, wasn't he? Well, even if it wasn't, I don't even think a hero would die in that middle belly enough to be told as an 'anecdote'."
"I know what Millie's trying to say... but most of the time, the last of the heroes, Tan, isn't it?
Well, even a glorious hero, Tan, the end of the story is surprisingly puzzling.
"I married a princess and lived happily ever after. 'That's a lie.
That must be true that I married a princess... but I was caught as a force in the country and ended up in a battlefield somewhere.
Even famous adventurers, if they somehow think they've lost track somewhere, can be accidental deaths or demonic attacks that have killed them lightly.
"I know that very well. But the middle belly sucks. We can dungeon and look, and we can't do that. Shouldn't we look on the assumption that there's a trail of gayenne near this summit?
"" Oh. "
That's a reason to be convinced.
When that happens, what route to look for......
"For one thing, let's go see the fire escape where Wyburn and Hydra are likely to be found by Ig and Faye. If I can find anything on that road, it feels like a money-making thing."
So our policy was decided, and that day was already set to rest in preparation for tomorrow.
"... let's just make the cold gear better tomorrow"
"Right. I don't want to freeze to death."
"Hey."
We were sworn to the realization of 'warm exploration' in this snowy mountain.
