Jujutsushi Wa Yuusha Ni Narenai
Lesson 333 The Ancient City of Albion
This is her base (home).
From the Throne Room in front of the entrance to the Central Tower, we came to Zoro and the Hidden Fort.
It is still connected by a secret passage that is not listed on the map of the underground passage acquired in the tower. Whether it was fully functional and alive, the huge tunnel-shaped passage from the ground to the fort was brightly lit with brilliant white light, and there was no appearance of dirt.
The tightly sealed gate at the end of the aisle was automatically opened when we arrived and led us inside.
This was a place that Bird Yu managed, but now it doesn't have the power to do so. If I could still operate it, the gate would be locked.
What about Tendo-kun?
"It's an army facility." My authority takes precedence. "
"The general code is the authority of military relations. Kodori Yu's name was Sinclair Code, so it was private, or it felt like it was for administration?"
"As usual, you're a deaf bastard."
Please explain this area in detail later.
”This is so annoying... I'll give you access, so find out for yourself”
It looks like it's going to be much easier that way, please.
"Momokawa-kun, you're close to Ryuichi... after all..."
I'm away! It's okay to be away, Ryoko, right?
I still don't care about the unstable chairman... but now I can't let the birds play in this hidden fort anyway.
And with the Tendo-kun's general code of military authority, the equipment and functions of the fort could be used without any problems. We're ready to take this place down.
"Oh, this is the right secret base."
It has a cute white interior, but it seems like a military facility because it has no decor and is made of solid materials. Whether it's a wire or a mysterious pipe running through the ceiling or the wall. You'll be excited to see it in the sci-fi starships, in the shelters of the Post-Apocalypse, and in the open world games.
Just like the passageway, the interior is beautiful. However, it is probably because the Azure True Party actually lived until this morning that it feels a sense of life.
"This is the dining room, and the stairs are that way. The bathroom is right around the corner."
May led the way and guided us through the fortress.
For the time being, we will gather in a large dining room that can accommodate everyone. Nevertheless, there are only ten of them. In a military base where a large army will be stationed, the hall where a large group like the cafeteria gathers is too spacious and lonely.
Well then, I'll prepare everyone's meals in the kitchen.
"Eh, you don't have to do it right now. You must be tired after a fierce battle. I'll eat appropriate leftovers, so you don't have to force it."
"It's totally fine." And I only fought Zagan one last time. "
I don't say "only" when I was taking my forbidden hand, "Berserk X", and I was dealing with Zagan alone. We've been fighting all morning, but May's got enough fatigue to match it.
But I didn't want to stop her from laughing brightly.
"Well then, I'll ask you to do it." My counterpart and Lem will help you. And Hime-no-san. "
Huh?
Even if you don't tell me, I'm sure I can help you.
"I, look, I've been in an unfamiliar battle all day, so I'm very tired..."
"Eh, can't you just let Mei work?" Seriously? Even though you're my friend? "
"I can't do much, but I'll help you too, Futaba-chan"
Yes, thank you, princess.
After all, if you were to help, you could make an impression if you were willing to accept it from the beginning. I don't think Hime-no should learn that futile resistance is not so much a waste as a loss of opportunity.
That's why we're going to form a temporary lunch clerk in the kitchen where there's still a lot of ingredients left.
Fufu, please wait.
"Giggle."
Tendo-kun's [Maid] Momoko appeared after turning over the long skirt of the maid's clothes.
In terms of my mental hygiene, I don't like his appearance very much, so honestly, I want him to stay out of sight.
"You're the most famous cook in the class, Shigeko Futaba." Let this peach figure out how good she is! ”
"Wow, can you help Momoko too? Thank you!"
"Ah, hey, don't stroke yourself!"
Mae-chan, who had accepted Peach's presence as soon as possible, stroked the maid who offered to help her with a cheeky rhetoric. With that hand, Hayama-kun will do his best to stop Beni.
But it's not good for me to treat evil with openness. If you were a demon summoned under the name [Maid], you would have the ability to do chores appropriately. It should be viewed as a valuable workforce.
Once again, it's really a sore throat.
"Don't tell me, Himeo-san."
"Hey, this peach... are you holding on?"
"... apparently I'm not lucky."
Well, the scene that the chairman started to check by sticking his face into Peach's long skirt was seriously mad.
As a result, it turned out that Momoko's body seemed to be a woman, and the chairman overshadowed the worst judgment that he had lost to a man, so it was fortunate that he became a kickback to regain his sanity.
However, when I see you sticking your face into your skirt with a strange voice, it feels completely too late to recover your sanity... no, it would be better for the world, for people, for me.
"---- I see, and I flew up to the bottom floor on Liberta."
It's been a long time since I tongued Mei-chan's exquisite handmade dishes, and now I'm at bedtime. Everyone is tired, so I'm going to ask you to go to sleep early.
However, I had to thoroughly interview Tendo-kun and collect information first, so I decided to stay in the cafeteria and discuss it carefully.
Next to me is a young girl, Lem, and Tendo-kun Momoko. [M]
And the black flying dragon that remained sealed in the quarantine area, Liberta sat on the table and opened her mouth as she gnawed at the dried meat on the plate.
"The center of the old town is wide, so it is easy to fly and good. But the concubine wants to fly in the real sky quickly."
"Evil, you can't go out until you're able to play bird games." Just hang out with me a little bit longer. "
"If the Lord says so, I can't help it."
While saying that, Liberta, who can be stroked by Tendo-kun, is just a cute pet rather than a monster king dragon.
Liberta seems to be able to change her body size freely.
When he jumped into the entrance, he had a body so fine that he surpassed the wild salamander.
But now it is the size of a puppy that can sit on a table.
Libertas are usually big dragons, so this is a form of power suppression. It was like a transformation skill that had the opposite effect of being a spirit beast. No, it's close to Lem's transformation.
In other words, it is very likely that this dragon will one day acquire the art of humanization as a human figure. If that happens, it'll definitely be Loribaba. If that's not the case with your voice and tone, then fraud is a good thing too.
"Thank you for coming back." I mean, I thought I'd come back. "
"I can't let go of Yudou and Ryoko and wander around like a wanderlust." Above all, I can't pay back the debt that was paid by the little bird tour. "
A friend came to defeat a resentful enemy because he was worried. Somehow, Tendo-kun's behavior is common sense. Otherwise, I wouldn't be best friends with that Aoi-jin-kun.
Damn, even though I have such a good friend, I wonder if that stubbornness and narrowing of my field of vision managed to do anything about it. Is it still a woman's fault?
Anyway, I'm really glad Tendo-kun came back.
If you ride Liberta, a flying dragon, you won't have any trouble getting around even if it's thrown out into the forest. Fly somewhere and you'll be done getting out of this damn dungeon.
However, Tendo-kun dived into the dungeon again and came to the bottom level.
Even though he is now as familiar with dungeon information as he is with small birds, it is with incredible speed that he ran through the dungeons, which are home to many wild monsters, in just a few days. The next time you do it, be sure to shoot an RTA video.
"Nevertheless, the ancient hegemonic state of Emerodia, the metropolis Albion where the power of the demon gods ran rampant and perished."
Believe it or not, Emerodia is a powerful monotheistic nation that believes in the goddess Elsion. At this point, Guilty was confirmed. Evil civilization, perdition.
Liberta seems to be a kind of an ancient weapon that was prototyped using the power of the Dark Demon God, but is she given a vocation or a vassal?
"I don't know for sure." At least, I have never heard or felt the voice of God. "
"Does that mean that ability is built in as a dragon?" But the language speaks... maybe it wasn't human originally, right? "
"My concubine is more like a dragon than when she was born." But I didn't even know how to make a concubine. The dragon is a craft dragon. It wouldn't be strange if one or two humans were mixed together. "
"It's the kingdom of goddesses." You're good at human experiments. "
Based on Liberta's assertions, it seems that it is not uncommon to do something with humans as a material, rather than just imagination.
Hey, isn't that the one with the black armor helmet that caused this Albion to die?
Well, if you look like you're surviving, you're really an ally of the Lord.
It's him, after all. A wild warrior wandering the underground passageway, wearing an armor helmet like that demon king.
I thought it wasn't just living armor, but it seemed more dangerous than I thought.
"You must never challenge him." It's not a question of being able to win, not being able to win, not being able to win. I don't know what kind of disaster will happen if I run away next time. "
"It's okay, I'm watching to make sure it doesn't get like that." Rem, where are you now? "
"To the south... yakuza, 12 kilometers... walking"
"'Cause they don't seem to be around here." I'm glad to hear it.
"Even if you didn't know who you were, you were flying a demon to keep an eye on it." What a shameless woman. "
"No, it's a man." Don't be with the maid, I'm sorry. "
“If it looks the same, it doesn't make much difference?”
“No, not at all.”
Tendo-kun, please properly teach this dragon the importance of the difference between a male and a female. It's the owner's job.
"Hey, I don't care about the old story." If you care so much about history, you can take your time doing archaeological research after you've killed the birds. ”
“Sure. What matters is how powerful the Albion Central Government (Central Tower) is and how far it takes for the birds to play.”
Knowing your enemies and knowing yourself are the basics of the basics.
In particular, the abilities of the ancient ruins, with many unknown parts, are added to the cheat skills of the "Sage", who received the grace of the goddess of shit. Understanding the current strength of Kodori Yuu is the most important information for the future challenge of capturing the tower.
"The tower is not a military facility." I don't have any defensive gear... but I'm sure there's some security left. "
Is that like an ancient weapon robot?
No, it's a monster. There must be some dragons that look like Libertas.
I see, you're saying that Liberta was the only monster that was specially crafted to be used as a biological weapon, rather than a regular force.
Maybe some of the monsters we fought before were mixed with them. Or should I assume that all the boss monsters were biological weapons?
"Is there a boss rush after all..."
"Don't gush infinitely, it's okay, right?"
You're not going to be summoned?
"I've stopped all metastasis. You can't call anything from outside the tower."
I see, I thought it was to stop the birds from escaping, but it also prevented the reinforcements from being summoned. Exactly. One stone, two birds.
Will it be disarmed?
"It seems that he can't just have the authority... but I don't know the reasoning in detail"
"Master has the title and authority to act as commander-in-chief of the base, and Yuki Kodori is the temporary Governor." Albion is still perceived by the tower's management system as being in a state of wartime with martial law in place at the time of the collapse, so basically the military authority of the base commander takes precedence over that of the viceroy. ”
And Momoko gave me a supplementary explanation of her husband, who was out of town.
I appreciate it, but I'm your big secretary, so stop being so pissed off about your cleansing face.
It's martial law, so we can prohibit the transfer so that it doesn't move.
"Yes, so it is not possible to use the official name" "Portal" ", the transfer magic between the areas that you have been using."
But after the ban, the birds were transferred, right?
"Government officials are allowed to use some of the metastases for evacuation."
You said there was an emergency evacuation call, but you're right.
And in the deepest part of the tower where the Heavenly Gate was, he was planning his last conspiracy.
Can't you stop the function of the tower with the authority of Tendo-kun?
“The Central Government (Central Tower) is not under military control, so we will have to stop and isolate the portal.”
It was literally the last fortress. "Last Dungeon" is more correct in our case.
"... hey, let the birds play and Aoi-kun go, will you all run away?"
"To get out of here, we need to lift the transfer ban." As soon as he can fly, he's free to move. Do you think he'll shut up and miss us? "
I see, I had no choice but to kill you after all.
Since we have banned the use of various dungeon functions such as the portal of transfer magic under the military authority of Tendo-kun, we are in a somewhat advantageous position.
Having gained the ability to control the Governor, Albion, Birdie is a complete dungeon master if nothing happens. Whenever you like, you may be able to beat as many Yamatano Orochi bosses as you like, wherever you like.
"Besides, for some reason, I've been caught, and I'm not going to abandon it." Aozumi-kun is responsible for herself. "
"It's not very important, but I can't ask you to risk your life to help Yudu." He deserved it. "
Even though I'm your best friend, I don't think any of us think I'm going to say anything cold. I took refuge in the bird tour until the end and became a war criminal who forgave his schemes.
However, without our cooperation, Tendo-kun would not hesitate to help Aozuma-kun.
By the way, what do you think is going on with Aoi-kun?
I thought you were saying hello to little birds.
"Is there a device for brainwashing people?"
"It's not like that, but the power of the [Wise Man] is there, right?"
I knew it.
Whether there is an ancient evil brainwashing device or not, it is not a problem as long as it is endowed with the [Wise Man] skill. Even if it is just a higher level of compatibility of [Idea Code], there is no crafting that manipulates a man with as much imagination as Aoi Shin-kun.
"I haven't awakened enough of the power of [Hero] yet." That's why Birdie Yu wants to make us a tragedy somehow and have an awakening event. "
"I'm sure you're getting ready for that."
"We need to get ready."
Can I just relax?
"The strength of the small bird tour is that it is in the tower, which is under the authority of the Governor. Then you will never come out of him."
If I had a demon, I would be able to make a mess of it... but even if I had a Tendo-kun, it would be pointless to strike a semi-capable battle force.
Little birds are on the alert. Considering his frightenedness and shallowness, he could use a tug-of-war technique to gather all his forces in the tower in anticipation of our arrival and prepare for a full intercept.
In this case, time is on both sides.
Let's just get in there before the birds are ready. Or perhaps we will prepare ourselves for the challenge.
If you ask me which one to choose-- my way of doing things, I'll let you choose how to take the time to prepare. With preparedness, there will be few high school students who have realized the grief so far.
In the meantime, Yudou might be brainwashed.
"It's okay. When that happens, Sakura-chan will say the power of love and so on, so you'll unlock things that are good for you."
After all, you're the "Holy Maiden".
That said, I can't leave Sakura to her alone.
Yuuki Kodori will undoubtedly send Aozuma-kun and Kensaki to us. [M] Therefore, we have to prepare it including the measures.
I would like to follow such a policy, but can Tendo-kun help me?
"Tch, you must have the guts to use people again, Momokawa"
"People don't listen well." Together, we'll do our best. "
Now Tendo-kun says, "I can't go out with you. I'll let you go quickly." Even if it were me, I would have to take a quick plan,
"Hmm, well, this is the last time." I'll do it until you're satisfied. "
"Thank you. If you can help me, I promise to help Aoi and kill Yuuki."
Negotiation is complete. Shake hands.
Now then, let's get ready for the final assault.
