＜Infinite Dendrogram＞

□ ■

Another hour passed in the quarantine space.

Even though it was temporarily sedated by Beasley's words, it flared up again over time and under unfavourable circumstances.

In the meantime, Splendida will not die and Juba's defenses will not shake.

Splendida throws something like candy into her mouth, and there is no change between Juba and [yellow crystal].

…………

Eph, on the other hand, closed his eyelids, as he had done in the cathedral.

Zodiac is scattered, and Eff seems to be looking around in this space as he switches his sights.

However, there is no notebook to take notes in both hands.

Without writing, he somehow glowed his hands like a hand play.

Light Attribute Magic, not even Attack Magic, combines expansion skills to enhance and shape light.

From the side, it looked like he was really playing.

Beasley talks to him like that.

"Did you get anything?

"Yeah, it's just a bet.If you cut it out, this glued state will be over. "

Once we know more about this space and Splendida's tactics, it will be a sign for both of us.

We don't want to be pushed to a disadvantage when that happens, so we also need to provide materials to get the outsiders on our side, excluding Sakura.

Specifically, it is a goal other than the survival of three.

The most powerful thing now... is the destruction of the magician Splendida and his companion Juba.

And this idea was right.

We don't know, but Splendida's HP and Juba's MP still pay for the Cold Equation maintenance.

Therefore, if the two of them are gone, they will be cancelled because they cannot pay the cost.

But to do so, we need to kill the immortal Splendida and break Juba, the Iron Wall.

Ev must show us how to accomplish these two things together, which the Kingdom could not do even if it was hit by intensive fire.

(... what would he do when this happens?)

Eph thought about Ray, who once broke himself with the odd tactic of the last resort.

Ray hasn't slept for a long time and is quiet.

His whole body was wrapped in a [black jacket], and even his breath was faint... it was difficult to deny even if he said it was a body bag anymore.

(And... there's still a problem)

Eff has one more concern.

"I'm also concerned that the other party's tactics are too detached."

The gimmick of space, where only a small number of people can survive, is vicious.

However, when we quarantine only the Master and do not involve Tian... why not start the fight?Why spend your time in captivity?

Juba has only slept in the barrier before.

But she was quasi < super > known for the anecdote of the Hungry Dragon's annihilation.Her skill is not in defense, but in attack.

Destroying the statue trapped in this enclosed space is what she should be able to do.

Why are you not doing that and are preparing for a long fight that seems like a time-out or inviting our disagreement?

The answer was answered by Beasley.

"Probably because they're not just after him or us."

"What?

"At present, the Kingdom's Super is hiding its actions except for Alberto, who went on a hunt.Some of you are logged out in the first place.But what if Ray is missing in King's Landing and doesn't fall off the list of friends?

"I see. Is it bait (...)"

A shrug that can destroy space.

The mightiest Figaro in all things.

Hannya is the corner of the "super" of space manipulation.

These three could break through the quarantine space of [Divider].

We may be able to respond with the aim of rescuing Ray, the < life > of the Kingdom.

"... I mean, they still have bills that can defeat those superpowers?

"The opponent is also super.It would be stranger if it weren't. "

Alternatively, a Sakura or Kingdom split is one of the stones used to gain the chance to win the trump card.

In other words, you can't keep your hands tight like this.

Barbaroi Bad Burn

Eph dared to call Beasley by his full name.

"Could you do me a little bit of a losing role?

It's an unfinished business... but I've decided to make a bet.

◇ ◆

About two hours have passed since the Cold Equation was activated, and finally the kingdom's atmosphere is one step ahead of breakdown.

The AETL Consortium and outsiders are on the verge of collision.

(It's still early, sir.Is the stress level in the confined space higher than I thought, sir?

Splendida was laughing, but with awake eyes she was tasting the potion.

(Well, that's fine if you run out of food before you can fish.Let's take him down, retreat, and wait for the cool time of the Cold Equation to come.)

So when I decided to put the potion in my mouth, I was squeezed in the palm of someone's neck.

"Oh, oh?

This drink... is a potion.It's also for MP recovery, right?

The one holding Splendida's neck is... Beasley.

It also wears Shooting Iron Armor , showing its prestige as Barbaroi Bad Burn. Shooting Iron Armor still had some damage left in the battle, but it was also a powerful boost.

Isn't that weird? You've been using MP since you've been here?

"Hahahaha....."

Splendida smiled when Barbaroi asked.

But it seemed to be pulling a little bit.

The conditions for lifting this boundary are as I said.But that's not all, is it?

"Fu, huh? Then what else?

This boundaries are still being maintained with the best MP.That's why I was drinking this stuff.If my MP expires, it will be released, right?

"Hahaha, that's... hahahaha"

Splendida laughed at the trouble.

(You're deceiving me, sir)

--I laughed inside.

Of course, including drinking MP recovery potions, it was a bluff.

The actual maintenance cost of the Cold Equation can be paid from outside the MP, and Juba as well as Splendida can be selected for payment.

Above all... MP recovery is not dependent on potions (...).

Something to distract you from your original gimmick, including potions that you drank every single time.

Splendida laughed at her in her heart because she was stuck with the bluff.

(After this, I can't recover my MP, so I'm aiming to "unlock skills with MP depletion", sir?But no matter how long you wait, it doesn't.An extraordinary failure calls for further dissatisfaction among outsiders, and finally the kingdom is divided.Hmm, it's boring, but I can't help it!

I can see Barbaroi shaking his shield in Splendida's vision.

-Hello? Was it so frustrating?Yeah, yeah. You may hit me.Doesn't my safety zone (Til-Na-Nog) collapse?

Repairing his expression as if frightened, Splendida was crushed by Barbaroi's attack.

Repeated beatings turned him into meat.

But for Splendida, which plays as much as it feels painless off, it's no different from massage.

He doesn't mind getting his hands and feet crushed and blackout.

(Ha ha ha. Waste. Waste. (Non non non non))

Splendida with plenty of room and meat.

The crushed head regenerates slightly, and the nervously connected eyeballs see the surrounding sight again.

It doesn't change anything except the edge and one element (...).

(...?

One of them is Eph's.

Zodiac, who solved the optical camouflage, appeared in numbers that were insufficient to wrap the human flesh mass.

"... ahh"

Splendida realized at that point that she had been fitted.

I had Barbaroi play the incompetent detective and let him down that he was' fooling '.

Barbaroi's reasoning show temporarily stopped the attack because Barbaroi herself attacked… because she wouldn't let the sneaking Zodiac get involved in another Master attack.

Zodiac surrounded Splendida without noticing, and Barbaroi's attack shattered his body.

And...

"Blind Charge, Maximum absorption (...)"

It was dark, enveloping his body.

An unknown space where all light is swallowed up.

In it, Splendida's playback... stopped.

◇ ◆

As he surrounded Splendida and looked at his dark, covered < Embryo >, Eff began explaining to his surroundings.

"Absorbing and charging light is a characteristic of my Embryo.Blind Charge is a skill that extends its properties not only to the sphere surface, but also to the surrounding area.I wear out my MP while using it, and I don't usually use it because it's inefficient. "

It is inherently a skill for rapidly charging light and has limited applications.

It's not an attack skill, it's not like it puts a load on the opponent.

However, Splendida did not regenerate while Eff explained, nor did he defeat the Zodiac that surrounded him.

Completely sealed.

"There are many secrets to uncover, but first from Splendida's Immortality Secret."

Eff starts a real reasoning show with a notebook note he wrote down in one hand.

Meanwhile, Barbaroi moved by Ray to return to the guard.

"As a prerequisite, my laser easily burns through the body of a human... senior position.Experience burning organisms through the light is not enough. "

Until now, the magic of Eff's light has penetrated the enemy many times and cut his body.

Whether it's a pure dragon-class monster or not, it has a track record of falling apart.

"But I couldn't penetrate Splendida's body, which was supposed to be vulnerable."

The first shot at the cathedral went through the hat, but not through his head itself.

Attacks in this space only burned the surface of the body.

It only has that effect on Splendida, which was easily shattered by a kingdom attack.

"Where did this difference come from?

Eff continued to observe Splendida, but could not find a particularly effective attack.

But on the contrary, they realized that their attacks were extremely ineffective.

"It's not that much damage.At the same time as my laser was hit, it was playing faster than usual, so it didn't penetrate. "

Why… what is Splendida's gimmick of Til Na Nog?

"That is, his ability to reproduce is proportional to the amount of light."

― ― The ability to regenerate at the cost of light.

That's the same ability as Zodiac and [Black Suit].

Therefore, attacks with light attributes (lasers) increase healing speed by that much.

"By its very nature, regeneration capacity should be significantly reduced at night....."

Splendida was not logged in at night in a previous incident involving a passenger ship.

Because they depended on light, they avoided spaces without light.

And now the playback of Splendida has stopped in the darkness of Mumyo.

"This space is bright even at night time, and his regeneration is not degraded."

In the view of Eph, who is connected to the outside, the sun is completely falling around the cathedral.

But this space remains as bright as day.

What is the reason for this, Eff...

"And that sun... is Juba's Embryo."

--pointed to the sun above his head.
