King's Landing

The Second Element of King's Landing Volume 4 (Part 2) Chapter 172, Dreams and Imagery

Suddenly, I heard a nostalgic name.

The last being called this way was... well, what year and month was it?

This is a short period of intermission. In half-dream and half-awake, time goes back to the long past.

Enjoying the warm sunshine of early spring, I gradually wake up because of the nickname ringing in my ears.

"—Your Highness! Your Highness Letty! Please don't nap in such a place!"

There was a violent vibration from the body, and the sleepiness could not be avoided.

I opened my eyes and saw that the maid wearing a maid costume appeared in front of me, shaking his shoulder vigorously.

The location is a military camp on the border between the castle and the city wall.From the training ground set up next to the military camp, there were also noises and roars of comrades, as well as cheers and screams today.The knight commander must have implemented a Spartan training plan.

It seems that I fell asleep by the window because I came into contact with the comforting noise of comrades and the warm weather of spring.

"Sorry, Carla.

"This is not something that you can just forget about being embarrassed! Really, the thought that the Princess, who is my general, would actually doze off next to the barracks! What a sigh! What a sigh!"

The maid akimbo, pressed her glasses and shook her head in an exaggerated motion.

Although she said so, after all, the spring sun is so warm and gentle, and it is originally nocturnal. Waiting to be awake at this time is a strange thing, right?The vampires living in Hakata City should have the right to indulge in this extravagant sunlight that can only be enjoyed during the day, and the blessing derived from it-"sleep comfortably".This is the judgment of the vampire princess, so it must be correct. After he inherits the throne, he can amend the law.

"Based on the above, good night, Carla.

"It's forbidden to go back to sleep!"

Snapped!The image of the princess collapsed instantly because the maid knocked it with a dusting tool.

"...No, I just want to sleep, never get up.

"How can you say something like "No, I just want to sleep"! You are the symbol of me waiting for the "Knight of Hakata"! With the identity of the "Dragon Knight", you actually dozed off in the barracks with drooling water. Not an example! Wait a minute! Didn't I tell you to hurry up!"

However, even so, he was prepared to show a thorough resistance to the Japanese.

The maid had blue veins on her head and was furious.Finally, after a few seconds, a violent sound of shaking the barracks was made!Completely took away the poor sleepiness.

"...What is the last one?

"It's the secret of a maid. Any good maid should not only have one or two tricks, but also prepare the final trump card in advance. Moreover, as long as it is the request of the master, it is not necessary to talk about daily care, and even serve to change clothes, bathe, and sleep for the master. Providing special services plus resourceful strategies and other aspects is also well prepared, and from assassinations to pioneers can be perfected to be a real maid."

"The maid is amazing!

"of course."

The maid did not show a particularly proud attitude, but responded lightly.In fact, she is not only a trustworthy warrior in a clan, but also an excellent controller when playing games with the devil.

At this moment, the maid seemed to finally remember the purpose of this trip and suddenly said.

"Right, Your Highness. Regarding that matter, "Thousand. Eyes" has already sent in contact."

"that matter?

"Yes. The letter stated that they are also willing to provide assistance to the system that will be set up in Hakata City, the "Class Dominator" system. They also generously sent "White Night Stalker" and "Laplace". "Devil" these two cadres. As expected, the treasure trove of talents is extraordinary as soon as they are released."

"..."

"Yes, their willingness to cooperate is higher than our estimate. This is also the result of waiting for the vampire to establish various merits as a "Hakakiri knight". It is just that the "White Night Stalker" seems to have to behave because of problems. It will be temporarily entrusted to Buddhism before coming to the war."

"..."

"Oh? You are worrying. Although she did go around as a demon in the past, she is now actively exerting her power as a god. The problem is those of the opposition, who advocate becoming a "full power class" "The Dominator" should then break into the upper echelon——"

"..."

"--Yes, as your highness said. The prosperity and wealth that I have established cannot resist the truth of prosperity and decline. One day they will decline and decline. However, as long as this system can run smoothly, I will wait for the intention of "Hakatai Knight" This honor of guarding will and order will continue to survive the long star frost years... Well, maybe it is because of this concern that there will be the kind of demon king who cooperates with the opposition and secretly plans to be active--"

"..."

"--That said, as long as your Royal Highness Leidi succeeds to the throne, the vampire family will usher in a prosperous age. It is said that the long-awaited wish of our vampires-the sovereignty of the sun, will be awarded as a reward for this achievement. I am waiting for the future of the family..."

——Why can't I see it?Why can't I hear it?

This small dream of warmth and happiness, just being lazy in such a dream has become a luxury?

——An ancient vampire city, an attached town.

After listening to Galolo's account of the history of vampires and Leticia's rumors, Ikuyo, who was holding his chest, returned to his thoughts.

"How? Miss Sixteen Nights, is what I said useful?"

"...Well, although there is still something, but it does not affect the solution of the mystery."

"Really, really!?"

Although the four of Tong Na, Aixia, Galolo, and Jack were mentally prepared, they were still shocked.

It’s incredible to unlock the game of Demon Lord Dracula in such a short time!?

Is she really human?Is her brain a puzzle solving machine?Or is she just joking?No, obviously the answer to the three messy questions is NO.

Ignoring their dumbfoundedness, Sixteen Nights spread out the black document in his hand and pointed to the name of the game to start explaining.

"First of all, the title, "Sun.Synchronous.Orbit". It means sun-synchronous orbit. In other words, it refers to the orbit of an artificial satellite flying at a certain angle to the sun."

"Huh? You mean artificial satellites?"

"...?"

Seeing Jack so surprised, Sixteen Nights focused his attention on him.

"Uh... I came to Hakata in the 1960s..."

"In the 1960s...?"

It seemed that something had been thought of, but Jack interrupted Sixteen Nights' thoughts first.

"This matter is not important. The point is Miss Sixteen Nights, does the artificial satellite in your mouth refer to this castle...?"

"Yes. There are rumors about this giant dragon --- the vampire was born in the dragon that carried the world. Well, indeed, this dragon looks very big... but it's not big enough to drag the stars to move. To the point. So the answer I interpret is-the view of the universe possessed by vampires should be a religious metaphor or metaphor."

Probably they didn't understand, so both Tongno and Aixia were confused, and Galolo thought of something.

"On this premise, the vampires who are the guardians of order, in order to prevent the phylogenetic tree from being disrupted, follow the established orbit to monitor the dragon's back. That is the concept of a satellite."

Although Galoro knew nothing about satellites, he offered some insights.

"The content of the game related to "The Sun" and its "Orbit"...? So, Miss Sixteen Nights, did you interpret the "Beast Belt" as "Zodiac"?"

"Zodiac?"

Aixia and Tong Na both looked at each other suspiciously.

"The so-called "Zodiac" is another name for "Zodiac" or "Zodiac."

Jack pumpkin

"Uh, the zodiac... does it mean the twelve signs including Leo or Cancer?"

"Yeah, the correct answer! In fact, the twelve constellations are a method of celestial body division that moves on the solar orbit every 30 degrees to distinguish the starry sky field——"

Speaking of this, Jack's voice came to a halt, and after a few seconds of coldness, he began to speak unbelievably.

"The celestial body...divided? Could it be..."

"The correct answer. The meaning of the third victory condition "Collect the broken starry sky and consecrate the beast belt to the throne" is to "collect the twelve constellations divided according to the beast belt and consecrate to the throne."

Jack was jokingly teased by the middle of the sixteen nights, Jack smiled awkwardly, but Galuo here frowned and asked.

"In this case, how do you explain the broken starry sky?"

"Haha, isn't it the only kind of thing that can be broken and depicts the starry sky?"

This time, the four got an answer almost simultaneously.

"Can it be broken? It still depicts... Ah!? Is it... Armillary Sphere?"

"The answer is correct. But, to be more precise, it is the ambivalence in the armillary sphere."

"A mess?"

"The armillary sphere is the general term for the "armillary sphere" used to measure the spherical coordinates of celestial bodies and the "complex image" used to demonstrate the celestial phenomenon. The structure of the celestial sphere is a large sphere depicting or inlaid with stars, equator, and ecliptic, similar to today's Celestial globe."

"that……"

"The result of the third victory condition is to find all the fragments of the "hundred image" depicting the starry sky in the town and offer them to the throne."
