The Branded Female Fencer
War and Peace, Part 524 - Lower Level of Abandoned Ruins ①
"- This is probably the official entrance. The vertical hole over there is the entrance and exit for emergency evacuation, and the hole where Ucco was would be a simple collapse.
This isn't the middle tier, it's the lower tier. The middle floor is where it came from. "
"This vast space is here... for what purpose?
"Wait a minute. Probably this way... Yikes!
The world shined around them for a moment when Doom did some manipulation on the pedestal. White, red, blue, yellow. The sight, illuminated in various colors, seemed more glorious than any gorgeous city in this world, than the first aid.
"What's that?
"This was an underground city. Nobody lives here anymore."
"Cities? Who tried to live here?
"I'm imagining it, but I'm gonna go grab that evidence. I'll talk to you when I get down there."
The light also extinguishes with a few breaths, and the surroundings return to their original darkness. Doom made instant pine lights instead of fuel Cerberus fat and lit the fire.
"It hurts!
"You can't help it, because we don't have a light source. Now you've lost a little weight."
"Just play it. Be!
"Then say hello again when it burns out"
"You bastard!
"Yo, come on, Cerberus."
"To me too."
Cerberus lights the pine lights with tears, also covered by Gunz and Milnay. The circular table still continued to descend, but when it finally arrived on the ground it landed without sound.
And Gunz hit his nose on something trying to get out front.
"Hey! What the hell!?
"Clear glass? I had no idea, but something like this?
"You've been surrounding this pedestal for a long time, haven't you? Current technology. Then it's impossible to create, isn't it, something like this? Besides, based on strength, it's not glass. Cerberus, hit me."
"All right."
But a transparent substance that also withstands the beatings of Cerberus. Rather, Cerberus was losing in strength.
"What a stubbornness!
"I don't know what it's made of, this. You can't break it with my power."
"Uh, don't let anyone get away with it. I guess I'm the only one who knows how to walk this ruin, so you can't go home without it, can you?
"What is this place, Doom?
"I guess it's a residential area."
Doom explains as he walks. The buildings that are illuminated are not used in any way, such as building materials used in urban architecture today. Rugged and smooth building materials build buildings without any gaps. Collective dwellings, which would extend to dozens of floors in the high ones, far outweigh current architectural techniques.
Osiria leaked her thoughts to the lid.
"Legend tells me, it's like a treacherous tower."
"What is it, that?
"Yerasha the Five Wise Men were Ariyi, but those who envied that they could fly tried to make a tower higher than the mountain, ignoring their covenant with the Spirit. But the tower, which was only in the hands of men, was struck with anger by the Spirit and lightning was dropped and destroyed. That is the tower of the treacherous. That's the kind of legend Zea had when I grew up."
"I don't even think old humans had that kind of skill, and I've never seen a trace of that, so it's probably some sort of even story. Looking at this, maybe there was someone who used to do that.
Or if we could have built so many cities so far underground, we could have built buildings higher than the mountains.
Now, where do you get your hands off... "
"Can I leave you alone about Ucco?
To Milnay's question, Doom looks at the ceiling.
"Let it go. They'll kill you anyway."
"To whom?
"I know it doesn't mean aurangeable, but to someone who's here. Perhaps, I was here, to someone."
"Were you here?
"As the lower level is the residential area, the upper level is the labyrinth, so what about the middle level? If Milnay were to build this ruin, what would the middle class do?
Milnay often thought about it and came up with it all the time.
"Keeper."
"I guess so. When exploring the ruins, it was a good battle with the demons at last with the power that was the lord of black magicians. Ucco is probably the whole Keeper thing. And when I tried to light the city earlier, it showed that there were individuals still operating in the middle tier. Perhaps there's still a minimal interception mechanism left."
"So, the people who went into the middle class..."
"If you suck, you're wiped out. That's why I flew through the middle floor and came here. Come on, I want Titania or something alive, but what happens?
Doom looked amused, but on the other hand, somewhat unfortunately, stared at the upper middle layer with a complex expression.
