Hodge, Taketo, and Brigitta all hurried to the old Golem.
Run to the earth where the old Golem is, stitching between the scattered workers.
Chante broke up to check on Ulu. Karon asked me to go first because I have something I want to do, so I will leave it.
While running, the tacket was thinking.
(Chepette's Fairy Stone. Where is it now that disappeared after Chepette's death?
The old Golem's gripped right fist came to mind behind his head.
(That's right. He must have been holding on to the fairy stone Chepette cherished.)
Immediately after Chepette's death, it was the Golem who was by his side. Maybe it was given to me there.
After that, he followed Hodge's orders for a while, but one day Golem stopped moving. It was thought to be longevity, but when it moved again two weeks ago, it stopped accepting any orders.
I don't know why.
But that's all I can say.
(The old Golem listened to Mr Chepette's last wish. And instead of Mr. Chepette, he was defending the Fairy Stone buried in the earth.)
It may be really broken, making it impossible to overwrite an order, and it's just a stubborn attempt to execute only Chepette's orders that were received before that.
But I can't even think about it.
For the sake of my colleagues who have worked with me for many years, I am carefully grasping the image left by my colleagues and gambling to protect their will.
Perhaps Taketo himself would just like to think so, but in that way, I felt that I could quite comprehend the strange series of actions of the old Golem.
(Observing "orders" and trying to fulfill "wishes". Maybe there's no difference. Because the results are the same. If we know what he's up to, we can do it.)
The earth is home to many of the world's rarest fairy stones. And our job is to protect and protect the beast.
Taketo passed between the tent villages and ran along the canal through the wilderness.
Beyond that is the earth that the old Golem protects.
But in front of it, I saw a lot of men's backs that were unfamiliar with wrapping around the golem.
There are several cannons next to it.
On the signal of someone's call, the cannon made an explosion and sprayed fire at once. There is no need to confirm what has become matte. That old Golem.
The tip of the cannon is now covered with smoke and spikes. Smoke and dust. That's where the old Golem was sitting.
There, a sharp voice echoes.
"Do it! Don't put it in your hair! Destroy that Golem completely!
It was Benesis's voice.
"Dear Benesis! What is this!?
Hodge runs to Benesis. The tacket also followed Hodge with its arms, shielding the dust that was about to roll up into his eyes.
"As you can see. They finally borrowed artillery and soldiers from the lord."
Benesis saw the approaching tacket and snorted.
"Even if you leave it to me, things will improve. We still have to destroy it with all our might. Come on! As soon as you load up, keep firing! Don't rest your hands!
Benesis flies his sword at the soldiers.
The shelling continued. It's loud enough to make my tympanic membrane hurt.
"Please don't! This earth needs to be investigated!
The tacket screamed.
"You must have heard from Mr Chepette! Lots of Fairy Stones are buried here! We should also reconsider whether or not to continue with the canal construction as planned in light of the incident!
But Benesis smiles back like a fool.
"It's just a strange stone, and there's no way you can make a big difference to your important national business! Think with common sense."
"That's why you're starting to judge it on your own!
Karon ran there to catch up. And I told Benesis, without any shortness of breath.
"You crushed Mr. Chepette's report, the former site director. We also reported to the King's Land that it is a rare region in the world for Fairy Stones. Article 12 of the Kingdom's Administrative Code states that when carrying out large-scale public works in rare beast breeding grounds, it is necessary to obtain the permission of the Minister and the approval of the King after prior consultation. Your actions violate several royal laws."
Karon told me to get to the tacket first, so I could fly it to the bat with the message in his chest pocket.
In the words of Karon, Benesis twisted his face like a bitter bug.
"If such a thing is involved, can it proceed according to the plan such as the national project?
"There are people like you, so we won't lose our jobs. Speaking of the state, you can't do anything!?
When the tacket screamed,
Due to the shelling, the smoke that was standing up was slightly and vertically cracked. A big fist emerges from the muscles of the smoke. The fist relentlessly beat and broke one of the cannons from the top. The wooden wheeled pedestal is lightly crushed, and the metal barrel also gets a big fist and sinks into the ground.
"Golem!!!
Someone shouted in a screaming voice.
The sound of the shelling and the deterioration in vision caused by the smoke delayed us from noticing the approach of the old Golem.
Taketos, Benesis, and all the other leaders flee together.
Looking back as he ran, the dust and smoke were blown away by the wind, revealing the huge golem standing there. Looking closer, it is still overwhelmingly large enough to feel fear.
"Ah, the cannon! Hold the cannon!
Benesis stopped and shouted, but there was no one to keep his orders.
As the old Golem approached another cannon in slow motion, he grabbed the cannon with his left hand and gently lifted it and threw it. It was like a child throwing a toy, but the cannon jumped over the heads of the fleeing people and smashed them to pieces. Your right hand is still gripped.
"Shit."
Benesis lowers his long gun from his shoulder and pulls the trigger with his eyes on the face of the old Golem. The bullet hit Golem's cheek and hit him, missing a part of his face. He seems to be good at it.
Look at that. The leader's morale returns a little. A few soldiers with a Bazooka-style weapon on their shoulders stopped their feet and stood on their knees.
Old Golem knocks down all the cannons around him and then becomes a royal in front of the pointed gun mouth.
It looked like a big wall.
(Could that be. Are you willing to accept everything with your own body so that this earth will not be destroyed any more?
He didn't escape, and when he saw him standing at the pointed gun mouth, he could only imagine that was the case with the tacket.
"Stop it! You're attacking, and the Golem are fighting back!?
To be precise, that old Golem will try to destroy something that will hurt this earth. So far, I have not directly attacked people. But I don't know what happens when things get pressured, even if I don't attack people right now.
But Benesis did not listen to the words of Taketo.
"Shoot!"
And shouted sharply. At the same time, Bazooka blew the fire. All bullets hit the Golem. However, the Golem did not stand alone and remained standing there.
At the behest of Benesis, the leader starts loading the next round. If you look closely, it's a Magic Stone bullet. It must be a kind of Spirit Gun.
As I was thinking about what to do, a big shadow approached from behind.
It's Ulu.
"Taketo! Karon! Brigitta!"
Chante's voice rang from above Ulu.
Now the options are wider. Taketo whispers to Kalon next door.
"We have to use our abilities, too, right?
That's right.
Karon took a big deep breath when he loosened his tie with his finger around his neck. Mirimiri's beast begins to turn into a black leopard in just a few seconds.
Well, it's enforceable.
Taketo and Kalon nodded in Brigitta's words.
