The Cave King will live a Paradise Life -Becoming the strongest with the mining skill?-
Episode 172: Was it home!?
"Hey, where's Mappa's brother going!!"
Heinez shouted as he ran.With a wolf howling voice.
However, Mappa ran far ahead with a metal horse without shaking his side.
The undead that follows it is gradually pulling away, which is a good thing in itself.
"Ah, fast! I want that too!Wait, Mappa's old man! "
Hule shouted such a thing.
"A tireless horse... I'm certainly interested."
Ashton looked at Mappa's vehicle with a little regret and said.You regret not being able to catch up with your own feet.
It's no wonder Mappa can make that metal horse.
Did you just think it was unnecessary for a narrow shawl, or could you not make it without the ingredients?
In the first place, it's possible that Mappa just picked it up from somewhere.
"Even so, there's no place to run on the island.Even so, it's so fast... and so am I. "
Heinez, who answered that, was rarely sweating.
The other Cave Spiders looked a little tired as well.
"Guys, don't push it. At least Undead won't be able to catch up anymore."
That's what I said, but I don't know what danger lies ahead of Mappa.
Heinez and the others ran without slowing down a bit.
Everyone's worried about Mappa.
Everyone would have been desperate to work on Mappa's island, even if it wasn't Mappa.
But no matter how much we chase, we won't catch up.
At that time, I saw a large cliff stretching from the edge of my vision to the edge ahead of Mappa.
Augus, the Guardian, points to a cliff like its walls.
"That is the valley of the ancient temple, Zen Rambala!I know the shortest route to the central temple! Over there! "
The Cave Spiders are heading in the direction that Augustus is telling them to.
As you go along, there's a narrow canyon.
This is like the entrance to a valley with an ancient temple.
As I deploy my shields to everyone, I proceed with caution.
There's no magic response, no enemies, no traps.
As we move forward, there is a familiar magical shape of Mappa, so there is no doubt that Mappa is headed to the same place.
"It's kind of..."
Foulet looks at the wall of the canyon and leaks a voice of admiration.
When I first entered this canyon, it was an ordinary canyon.It was made of rock, and the rock was scattered whether it had broken or not.
But as you go into the back, you notice walls and floors covered with metal plates.I saw something like a door on the wall.
Vanessa the Guardian says.
"As far as we know, this is the home of those who serve the temple.But before they came, this place..... "
This would mean that the shrine, like the temple, was built a long time ago.
The pattern dug on the wall is a style that is not known at all in my hometown of San Fares.
If you think there are a lot of horned lines, if there is a realistic flower painting, we are likely to be taken away by rich artistic methods.
But at the same time, I had a man's face on my head.
"Mappa... so is he."
Mappa was also full of art.
It was found not only in statues and crafts, but also in sword patterns and picket shapes.
When that happens, Hule mutters.
"Hey, that..."
What Hule was looking at was a statue dug into the wall.
The statue imitated a man with short limbs and a slender body shape.
I have long hair and beard.
"Doesn't it look like Mappa's old man?"
Hule was right.
Gradually more statues will be visible.
Not only the walls, but also the three-dimensional bronze statues that stood halfway down the road, all in a Mappa-like shape without exception.
However, unlike Mappa, everyone wears armor and clothes.There are no naked statues.
But it's just that Mappa is special.Yeah, it's just that Mappa's changing.
Still, apart from being naked, Mappa must be a fine dwarf.
"Oh, it's just a statue of a dwarf... yeah?"
After a while, I saw the open place.
"This is it!"
I raised my voice unexpectedly.
Beyond the canyon, there was a vast basin.
The basin and its outer wall were densely populated with golden shining houses.
And in the middle of it is also a golden tower.On top of that, I saw a statue of a man like Mappa standing with his fist up.
"This is... this is definitely the dwarf's place."
A creature called Dwarf was known to San Fares humans.
It is known to have excelled in making things and built civilizations that transcend humans.
They probably liked golden metals like Orihalcon, and houses were made of them.
Of course, Dwarves were thought to exist in mythology, and no one found their legacy.
But seeing a dwarf that survived as a slime in the basement of Mappa and Sheol, I can assure you that was no longer a mythical event.
This city definitely belongs to the dwarf.
Ashton murmured as he watched the city in surprise.
"Maybe... this isn't Lord Mappa's home."
"It's possible. Let's go after Mappa's brother!"
I nod to Heinez's voice.
"There are countless magical reactions to the undead."
Mappa seems to be running around town without worrying about it.
What the Guardian says is that the monster originally lived here, and the other magical reactions are probably undead.
Either way, they won't be welcome.
So if this were Mappa's home, my fellow dwarves would already be....
I'm even more worried about Mappa. We have to pick him up at once.
Everybody, let's be careful.
The Ashtons nodded to my voice and replied.
Oops!
We followed Mappa and headed for the center of the city.
