Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Episode 746: Walking the Coastline

Leviathan, a large Knightship ice ship, boarded the sandy shore of [Black Pig's Fang Island]. In spite of the huge ship, this rough treatment can be done because it is a blue ice ship that can be released and extinguished freely.

It's quiet in the woods, isn't it?

Get off the melting ship and stand at the edge of the wave. Looking at the forest from there, I had already seen no orcs.

"The boss has also disappeared. According to the surviving Corps members, the sequence of events closely resembled the course from the onset to the end of the Beast Invasion (Stampede).”

I see...... So the boss's appearance condition is the occurrence of Beast Invasion (Stampede) due to the increase in environmental load?

Walk along the shoreline with Astra, gathering information and making predictions. If you think about it, you can also see why I couldn't find the boss even after I kept looking for the lice.

Mizuhanome once said. The second reclaimed area, the Honosawake Archipelago, is said to be prone to the occurrence of the Bestial Invasion (Stampede) due to the increased environmental impact.

For this reason, a large interceptor, the Futunomitama, has been constructed in various places. The same was true of the Fang Island of the Black Pig.

"There's no way to find out the extent of the environmental impact, and it's tough not knowing when the boss will show up next time."

“Well, I'm not always able to log in.”

Astra says with an unimaginable face.

I don't know what his life in real life looks like, but a regular home can't possibly do a long full dive. In particular, Astra is a fairly active type in virtual reality, which means that the load on the brain is higher than in adults. He should have less time to login in a row than most players.

"How to call the boss or fix it. It's going to be a lucky game until we find something like that."

You're not very good at luck games, are you?

Well, Astra is probably the type to get results with more strength than luck. I only have the impression that there is something else.

Anyway, it was time I looked around to start retrieving the plane. I saw a spare plane of the type that was coming our way - the Fairy - as it ran waves. She waves at us and raises the voice of a cute girl.

"Brother! The plane was stuck and rolling over there." Everything that was in the woods. I'm glad it was easy to collect. "

Is that your voice, Aye?

"Piwaaaa!?"

The appearance is the same as the other types - the Fairy airframe reclaimer, so I couldn't tell just by glancing at it, but I couldn't have misheard its voice. When I called her name, she jumped up loud.

"Nuah!? No, Ledge-san!?"

"Oh, I'm dead too." I'm here talking to Astra. "

“Tell me that quickly!”

Eye quickly turns around behind Astra, hiding behind him as a shield. It was my first time seeing her in a skeleton shape, and it felt a little fresh.

"Ah, it's Ai-san!" I haven't seen you before. "

The deputy commander has been killed, too.

There came Letty and Lact, who were talking behind him. Ai was in a daze, but eventually he appeared to have given up.

"Ugh. I should've collected it first..."

"Type - Fairy is cute even with a skeleton." Hey, Reggie? "

While comforting the shoulder-dropping eye, Lacto points his spear at me. Sure, the minimalist, compact, functional type - Fairy looks like a mini four-wheeler, cute, but why ask me?

Type-Lycan slopes are also cute!

Huh? Huh. Well, I've seen Letty's skeletons over and over again.

In the first place, it was the same when I first met Letty. That's when she fell on me.

"The appearance of the type-humanoid mass-production type is also good, right?"

Somehow, Astra ransacked it.

Type - Humanoids, he says, are made to be mass-production conscious everywhere. There must be a lot of players who like industrial craftsmanship.

I thought Astra liked the first machine or the prototype.

The Kagutsuchi he is riding is also made of a special one-on-one. That's why I thought you liked these special planes, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

"I like anything that looks good." One-off machines have the appeal of one-off machines, and mass-production machines have the appeal of mass-production machines. A masterpiece that has been recognized by many for its balance of reliability, ability and cost. ”

I see.

The mouth of Astra, a little more rhetorical than usual, unintentionally bursts out. He seems to have a good drink with him.

Well, now it's time to retrieve the plane. As Eye found, our planes were stranded in the sand. I'm glad I didn't have to go all the way into the woods, but all the sandy planes are damaged.

There it is! Letty's body!

There was mine, too

Walk along sandy beaches scattered with aircraft of various races and genders, searching for their own. That said, it's not so hard to find markers in your sight.

We'll find our plane and move the data and consciousness there. When I woke up on the original plane, the spare plane transformed into a small drone and flew away.

"Phew. I'm finally back."

Eye also switches the plane and scrapes the original rose gold hair with her hands. However, she, Lettie and Lacto were both full of creativity with their arms bent and their chest frames distorted.

This is hard to move, isn't it?

"Wow, Astra-san's got a terrible wound."

Letty rolls her eyes at Astra when she regains control of the ship. He was not below the elbow of his right arm, his right half skin was peeling off, and the frame was heavily warped. If we cut through the front lines and hit the Orcs, this would happen as well.

"The Knights' engineer will be able to walk there at least." Shall we fix it over there? "

Aye pointed to a tent, and the Knights' engineers were repairing the damaged players. Next to it, a large pot was cooked out, and Letty looked at it and her eyes glowed.

"Oh, peony hotpot!" That's a lot of stuff! "

Ah, Letty!

Soon after she stopped, she charged toward the pot. The Knights Heavy Shield unit that was waiting immediately unfolded, but it was bouncing like a bowling pin.

"Excuse me, Astra."

It's okay. The cooking is also part of the collection support.

Knight Commander with a refreshing smile. His nostalgia is deeper than the sea, and his virtue is higher than the mountains.

What's Astra going to do now?

"Of course, it's a review meeting on boss measures." The analysis team is still looking into it, and when the information is gathered, there will be a lot of things to see. ”

When I suddenly asked about it for the sake of curiosity, the answer came back as expected. Their [Knights of the Great Eagle] were the biggest bands in the offensive system, and they didn't have time to rest.

It's okay if Mr. Ledge joins us.

"Stop joking." Even if an outsider thrusts his neck in it, it can't be helped. "

Shrugged his shoulders and shook his head at Astra's sudden suggestion. Then I placed my hand on the shoulder of the lacto standing nearby.

"I was originally here for combat training with Lacto." There's something you want to talk about. "

"Pyuu!?"

When he said that, Lacto shouted in surprise for some reason. I wonder if she forgot what she said.

"I've called other members in with a message, so I want to share a lot of information with everyone."

Amy and the others are being called out to in an emergency. We needed to rendezvous with them and tell them about the end of the war.

Having said that, Astra seemed to be convinced and pulled back honestly.

"Ledge!" The peony hotpot is delicious! "

"Don't eat too much."

In response to Letty waving from afar, we're on our way.

There are a lot of things that bother me, but I have to clean up what's in front of me first.
