Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 161: The Six Pillars of Light

Players with the skills of Eye's troops also joined in, and the melamella and burning fire melted the ice well.

"I've never seen so many fires before."

Instead of being a campfire, I accidentally leaked my voice in front of a sight that no longer looked like a cult.

"Two or three breaks in the army are enough, so this is spectacular."

Eye, who had finished reporting to Astra, came next door and said as he watched the campers burn firewood and solid fuel.

"But I didn't expect to see Eye here."

"I didn't expect to meet Mr. Reggie either. When I happened to be investigating this area, I was surprised to hear from the commander."

It seems to have been a complete coincidence that she was nearby.

However, Astra said that Eye's troops also served their purpose because the purpose was also to investigate information for the next event.

"Mr. Reggie, it's time to see the end of the white tree."

Some of Eye's research teams were equipped with a variety of mining skills.

As a result of their breaking the melted ice with bees, white trees appeared earlier than originally anticipated.

Astra invites me.

"Even though it was ice pickled, it's solid."

The leaves are shiny too.

Tart and Luna both come and observe the leaves slightly protruding from the surface of the ice.

Thick, glossy leaves, similar to camellias, are firmly connected to branches, as if they had just grown.

"Now, one more step!

Eye shouts and inspires the Knights.

The fire is set on fire and the eagle is shaken.

If the top of my head comes out, I'll have a digestion match later.

In an instant, about half of it was exposed, and eventually the whole thing appeared.

"Is this the white tree of the Spirit Peak of the Snow Bear..."

Astra looks up at densely grown branches when she touches the white ceramic-like wooden skin.

It has thick roots in the back of a mountain surrounded by snow, and it looks like a broad-leaved tree, but it is full of vitality.

The arrival of the fourth most important resource location candidate has been confirmed

Detailed exploration will be carried out by the communications surveillance satellite group Tsukuyomi.

"Investigators nearby, take evasive action."

A sudden audible alert sounds.

Artificial audio warnings are raised and the players gathered around the tree groan at once.

"Well, that's what happened when I found the white tree in the waterfall!

"Everybody, get away from the white tree! If you stay away, it won't hurt!

Away from the white trees, Astra stretches her arms out to the side.

A few seconds later, a pillar of white light descends from the other side of the sky and surrounds the white tree.

With a delay, five more rays surround the surroundings, slowly increasing their speed and starting to turn and flash.

"This is the second time I've seen it, but what is it doing?

"I don't know. I don't know. Like a radiometric chronometer?

"Is that what this looks like?

No, I don't know.

Repeat the conversation with Astra as you gaze at the six glittering poles of light.

The white moon beside her seemed to have settled down a little after getting used to it for the second time.

"Hey, Muff! No, it's dangerous!

"Shirako-chan!? Ahabbah! No, no, no!

Luna's muffs and Tart's peppers, and Arthur's three relaxing Astra holding them tightly, seemed excited and rampaged to approach the white tree.

Eye's team is armed and ready to retreat.

I'm sorry to be so lazy with only one person, but everyone on the spot was doing something.

It's about time.

Ah, it looks like it's over.

While doing so, the motion and brightness of the light column calms down, gradually becoming thinner and disappearing at the end.

It looks dim due to the difference in light intensity, but the sky is as clear as ever.

The detailed exploration of the Fourth Important Resource Candidate is complete

"Confirm high concentration energy storage point"

"The fourth most important resource location candidate is certified as a point (core)"

"Examine resource supply availability through Takamagahara's territory expansion protocol."

"Underground Resource Collection Base Seed 01 - Formulates Amatumara Drop and Deployment Plan"

"The first drop point candidate was rejected by Takamaga Hara."

"The second drop point candidate has been accepted by Takamaga Hara."

"Running in three hours on planet Izanami Standard Time."

While the surroundings were noisy, I felt uncomfortable that the contents were slightly different from last time.

"Underground Resource Collection Base Seed 01 - Amatumala? And the drop point turned into a second candidate....."

"Mr. Reggie, what the hell is this?

Astra peeks at me as I put my thoughts together.

I'm the only one who can move around here.

For now, three hours later, there's a seed 02 flying around here.

"Really!?

"Oh, but the drop point seems to be a little different. Looks like you learned that dropping it on top of a white tree tastes bad."

Looking up at the sky, I can think of a pioneering commander ship that should be docked ahead.

When we dropped Seed 02, we made a plan to add to it, thanks to our resistance.

"So what do we do?

Luna said, holding a muff that still looks excited and cold.

Next thing I know, Tart was staring at me sharply.

"Let's start by looking for a second candidate at the drop point. If it looks safe there, it's okay, and if it's not, it's just thinking again."

"I see. ― ― Ai, mobilize a survey team to explore the surrounding area. Let me know if anything changes."

"Ok! Let's go, everybody!

At Astra's behest, Eye and the Knights standing around her ran.

Without dropping it off, Astra contacted the rest of the Susano Regiment to instruct them to gather information in town.

"Luna and the others... put the muffins near the white tree for now. I'd better reassure him."

That's true. Come on, Mav, let's go. "

Luna's chest was scratching the muffs and she smiled bitterly.

When Luna dropped it on the snow, the muffs rushed to the white tree as if they had been hit.

Release the tart and Astra from Arthur.

"... what's wrong? Can I go?

For some reason, Arthur just said, "Are you sure you want to go? Turning his back, he approached the white tree as he said he was afraid.

After the three of them, the white moon appeared to have settled down all along.

"White Moon, you look like Arthur's parents."

I'm very prepared, and I have a pendulum.

Astra and Luna praise the white moon.

I overheard the words. [M]

"No, but when the white moon was illuminated by the white trees in the waterfall, Gafu!?

In the middle of the speech, the head of the white moon that came running in a U turn directly hits the belly.

Pushes up your lungs and exhales air, clogging your throat.

"Hey, White Moon, what..."

Even as he stood up, the white moon shook his head and went towards the white tree.

"Fufu, you don't want to be told much."

Am I embarrassed?

"If you want to hide it, I want you to be a little more gentle."

Watch the four of them walk around the white tree while rubbing their lower abdomen.

The two with wings are stuck in the branches and the muffs are about to climb, but proud nails don't make any sense to the smooth wooden skin.

For now, I'm sure you're all relieved.

"That's right. I'll leave you alone."

Confirm with their own eyes that there is nothing unusual about the white tree, and the priests regain calm.

"What does white tree mean to them?"

Well then. Maybe you'll find out at the next event.

The white moon rang short and brought back the other three.

He rubbed his forehead against my leg just to say he was done.

Commander!

"Hey, did you find anything?

At that time, Eye called out to us from the top of the cliff.

When Astra answered, she nodded and sent him the coordinate data.

"Let's go."

"Ufufu, it's getting kind of exciting!

Luna said while rubbing her tummy even when she lifted her muff.

"Oh, you're kind of sleepy, aren't you? Oh, it's heavy....."

When the tart holds it, he narrows his eyes and begins to further round his round body.

Apparently I'm getting sleepy with peace of mind.

Yeah?

As he unexpectedly pulled the hem of Shadow Cail, the white moon turned towards him.

"Tart, I'm going to put the white moon on your back."

"Are you sure?

"I think you're saying it's good to be yourself."

Instead of nodding, the white moon approaches the tart and puts the tip of the nose on the chest of the pepper.

When the tart was afraid to put it on the back of the white moon, the white sphere melted flat and fixed the place with wings.

"Oh... Cute....."

"Yes, cheese. All right, let's go."

After we didn't miss the photo, we started climbing the mountain to where Eye was.
