Instant Death

"Get out of my way. Well, even if you get interrupted or bothered, I won't go home.I'll take your points. If you want it... "

Hilko was on his way to a settlement of Seyla infected people, piercing the cylinder and collecting points.

From Hilko's point of view, they were totally alien inhabitants, and I had no sense of guilt whatsoever about taking anything away from them who were weak in their will and would not resist anything.

Anyway, we have to rendezvous with Lou, and to do so we need to cross the area boundary wall, which requires the energy that operates on this continent.

"Is there no other way?I don't know how depressed it is! Are you listening to me! Toy Chi Row! "

There was no answer to the call.It seems to have been ignored because people of the same organization could use the telepathy.I may think it would be troublesome to answer the question one by one.

"That's how he did it.I wish I could throw a loud one out. "

After collecting points in some settlements, Hilko headed north.The Himmern kingdom is on the northeastern edge, so we must first aim for you.

After a while, you can see the boundary wall.Hilko pushed the cylinder with the point on the wall.Some of the walls shine rainbow-colored and pass gates appear.Hilko moved through there to the next area.

"About 120 areas later.It's so cool, really. "

There is a limit to the number of units that can be placed in the area.Costs are set for each unit and only one faction can send in up to a total cost of 1000.

Hilko is the strongest L unit with a cost of 500.The necessary points for moving the area were also 500 points according to the number.

Although you can collect infinite points from Seyla infected people, once collected, it will take some time to resurrect.In other words, accumulating 500 points to move around the area is quite a hassle.

Also, if the destination is your faction's area, there is no problem, but if it is an enemy site, you cannot enter unless your faction is two or more adjacent.

We can't keep going straight north, and we have to take control of the enemy area.

"No, I'm trying to play some kind of game, but it's too fucking gay, right?This can't be settled. "

The continent is vast, with countless areas.There is limited power to send one area, and even if you dominate one area, most of the time you are recaptured in another.

If we want to settle this, we need some kind of enforcement of the rules, but the continent is still struggling with the lack of them.

And no matter what happens, the number of people infected with Seila does not decrease, so no matter how careful you are, the number of people infected with Seila increases somewhere.The war on this continent will have to end at the end of many long years when Seyla drank everything up.

"Well, I told you to do whatever the fuck you want.It has nothing to do with us.What about the next settlement..... "

Explore the signs in the area.

This is the Slow Life Alliance's dominant area, so there was a core area hub in the middle.There are only Slow Life Alliance M and S units packed here, so there are no Seyla infected people, so they are not eligible.

There were three other settlements, so they would circle around to collect points.

"How long is this gonna take..."

When I think about the way forward, I get depressed, but if I don't act first, my reunion with Lou will be delayed.

Hilko felt like he was sinking, but he forced himself to float.And as I tried to fly to the settlement, I noticed that the space ahead was shaking.

"What? Did you hear from the Slow Life Alliance?But the transfer destination is in the middle of the area.... "

In other words, this was an unusual situation.If you can easily move between areas with the transfer, the wasteful and complicated rules of the continent will have no meaning.

Hilko was stunned when something appeared in the shake.

Okan!

It was Lou who was supposed to be in Himelon.Lou came looking for Hilko.

Hilko-san, thank goodness!

"Oh no! Thank goodness. But what a big deal."

When we broke up, Lou was about twelve years old, but now Lou is about twenty years old.

"The part of my body that broke up came from over there.That's how I fused up. "

"Oops! This doesn't feel like it's all the same..."

It doesn't matter what God looks like, but each God has his own personal image, and most of them take the form of a decision.

Looking back on Lou, Hilko seemed to think the signs were weak enough.

"Yeah, I know exactly what's at stake."

"Let's do it. If we were to be completely resurrected, we wouldn't be so weak.No, I still think it's much stronger than ours. Let's just go home. "

"Huh? I'm telling you, there's no key part?"

"If you don't, if you stay here in an incomplete state, you might get into trouble again.I wish you'd come back.And if you send your men in perfect condition, it's not gonna be easy. "

"But I have to go to my dad's."

"Why not? Do whatever you want now.I thought it would be convenient for him to collect his body, so I just stayed with him. "

"No, but if I go alone, it might get cold, so follow Hilko."

"Er... that's not Yu's, but if I do, I'll have to take him with me."

"Soyu's is a bit... disgusting..."

"Is that gonna be all right?I don't think so, but I don't like that. "

"Yeah."

With Lou's power now, it would be easy to change people's minds.But if you do that, the free will of the night fog will be lost.Once you interfere, you can never undo it again.It was impossible for the gods, and an innocent soul that had not been influenced by any power was precious.

"Okay, let's go with him for now.Can you do it? "

"Yeah, I know where Hilko is when I'm away."

Lou closed his eyes.They must be looking for the location of the night fog.It should be easy for Lou now, but Lou, who opened his eyes after a while, had a surprising look on his face.

What did you do?

"There he is... maybe he tore me apart..."

"What the hell!? I didn't ask why your handkerchief is falling apart and becoming a sage stone!"

"I don't remember the details either.Because we haven't been able to integrate the parts that govern our memories yet.But anyway, it feels really uncomfortable just for him. "

"What are you gonna do? Are you coming?"

"... I can't fight it right now... I'll go to my dad first"

Lou grabbed Hilko's hand.The scenery is distorted.With Lou now, it seemed as easy as taking Hilko with him and ignoring the boundary wall.



"Er... squid? I've seen this before!"

The one caught on to a luxurious ship as we were heading east to the island.

"Why are you flying!"

I don't know!

It seems like a giant squid is flying, but because it is rotating at a high speed, I didn't really understand the night fog.Apparently, there are wings on the torso, and the lifting force is generated by rotation.

The squid came down slowly and landed between the night fog and the settlement.

When it stopped, it was clearly recognized that it was a giant squid even in the night fog.That squid has ten tentacles growing from its elongated torso.

"I don't know... it would be so much easier if I could fly down here."

"Ah, Mr. Deggle! Pirates!"

Deggle is a pirate captain.He was pretending to be a guard on a luxurious ship, guiding the raid from the inside.

Ignoring the ethical aspect of being friendly with pirates, having a free-flowing vehicle should make travel considerably easier.

It would have been a little better than negotiating with someone you didn't know but you didn't know at all.

Well, I don't know if it's the same as the squid before, or if the person on board is the same.

Sure, but we'll have to check it out.The night fog approached the squid.The squid squirreled around his mouth and spit something out.

It was Hanakawa.

"What are you doing?"

"I don't know what you're talking about!"

Suddenly the river was kicked.

"I thought Hanagawa-kun went to school."

"That's not true! I don't know. I'm dying in special training!This squid is attacking us because we have someone to help us!So grab hold of this squid! It's in my mouth!I didn't think I could do it anymore, but I don't know why I'm alive! "

"Oh, good."

"Almost there! Aren't you happy to be reunited?I may never see you again!? I'm a classmate with few left! "

Well, what if you're happy first?

"Wow! You did it! Thank you for joining Takao!Now we win! Come on! Is this good enough? "

I did it!

"Emotions! I'm not convinced without more emotions!"

"No, I'm really glad you're okay.I was wondering if I could help you if you were dead. "

"There's a lot to say!"

"You seem kind of friendly. These two."

"I don't want to get along with Chiyota-san like this, but I want to get along with him!"

Er, no.

"It's really hard because it's filled with awesomeness!"

So Hanakawa doesn't really know what this squid is, does he?

It's refreshing.

"Well, hey, people inside.Is it Deggle? Can we talk? "

The night mist called out to the squid.Then a tentacle came in front of the night fog.The tip of the tentacle cracks and a staircase extends from there.Down the stairs came a woman in a man's clothes.

After all, it was Deggle that I met on my voyage.

"Why are you here?"

"I was on a journey, and I got there."

"Above the sky?"

"There's a route that can come from the ground.I think it's quite an irregular way to fly in a squid. "

"So, what do you want?We don't know much about this place either, so you're welcome to tell us. "

"Can you give me a ride?It looks like there's a lot of islands floating around here, and each one of them is connected by a transfer, but we can't get around with it.I thought it would be easier if I could fly around. "

"That's a bit difficult. It would be nice to have a ride.It takes a lot of energy to fly.I was going to go back to Earth when I gathered some information. "

"Energy. Maybe that's why you put the flower river in your mouth?"

"Oh, that's him. He sure left it in his mouth.It's like the middle of a creature and a machine.You can eat creatures and turn them into energy. "

"How much energy does Hanakawa get alone?"

"It's a trivial thing to do alone.It seems like it has a lot of fat, so I might be able to get more energy. "

"Um... could you please stop treating my life and death so lightly?"

"Then you can use me."

Then Scott interrupted the conversation.

"I'm immortal and used to being exploited for energy."

"Is that such a problem!? It's not good to make people eat squid and move around easily!"

"But won't you kill me if you don't achieve your purpose?Then you don't have to worry about it.You can sacrifice me as much as you want. "

"Well, if that's what he says."

"I don't know...."

Chiyoshi did not seem convinced, but it is difficult to travel as it is.Some means will be needed.

"If that's good enough, why don't we try it first?I don't know if you're immortal or something. "

"Are you sure you want to do this... hmm?"

Once again the sun was shaded, and the night mist and Chiyoshi looked up at the sky.

I'm here again!

Thousands of visitors, huh?

Something too big to understand was about to fall out of the sky.
