Vorpal Rabbit and Fortress Uncle

Lesson 804: Ghost Walking in the Darkness

Reports of retrofitted machine guards continued to grow. Apparently, the Mojamoja in the power section we found was number one, but one after another, researchers started exploring the seventh tier. What they have in common is that the one-step combat capability is greater than that of normal machine guards, and the structure is inversely proportional to that, and it is distorted in appearance as if it is connected to scrap.

For the dwarves, the presence of the converted guards is water in their ears, and the response is centered on Neseca.

Did you hear that? Even at the second base, it seems that there is a converted machine.

"Is that so?" It's getting weirder and weirder.

The hammer on the hammer's head crushes the head of the machine's hundred pairs, and the great sword is cut into circles when the movement stops. The ice spear pierced it without putting hair in it, and it stopped functioning in an instant.

Showing off his outstanding collaboration with the Tokas, Letty spoke as if he were talking to the world.

We are currently in the process of securing the seventh tier, which is the frontline of our first base. The enemy that appeared this time was also a regular "intruder strangling iron bug (chainsaw)" modification machine (converted). It is a distorted form that forcefully combines different parts of the unit system, and the disgust is increased by 50% from the appearance.

"I don't even know how these are born." It's strange or scary. "

"There was something scary about Toka, too, wasn't there?"

Torka holds the sword in a sheath. According to her, the origin of the retrofit has not been revealed. Someone seems to be putting their hands to it, but it is not clear whether it was actually caused by a third party or whether it was the result of a machine guard's rampage.

"Even I have something to be scared of." like a hibernation bears at dawn. "

Isn't that the kind of guy that can't help it anymore?

When I met her in the mountain cage, her liver was cold by the stone.

Is it a real experience!?

Dismantle a hundred of modified machines as the Torkas entertain themselves. Every drop you get is as worthless as scrap. Even if I brought it to Neseca, it would only be two or three sentences.

In that sense, I'm not very happy to encounter a retrofit machine.

"Hey, Letty. Do you know that there are ghosts in the first base?"

"Ahhhh! There's armor over there!" I'll break it! "

As soon as Lacto whispered with a demonic smile, Letty rushed out with a descending momentum and smashed the fluttering black machine armor with a hammer. I apologize for the armor that got scraped even though I just crossed it a little, but I'll have to pay you extra for it.

"Lettie, don't get too far away from me."

"Ugh. Because the lacto..."

Amy looks out for Lettie, who jumps out of the range she can cover. Letty pulled back the crushed machine armor, her ears drooping.

Most protozoa don't have the cowardice to confront Letty, but the only thing I don't like is ghosts. "Well, the reason for that is that the physical attack is ineffective..."

Anyway, Lacto laughs and giggles at Letty, who reacted more than expected.

"Don't bully Lacto too much."

Yes.

When I lightly snort, Lacto returns a long-lasting voice. That was why I was interested in her story.

Is there really a rumor of that ghost?

Ugh, even Ledge-san!

"So-so. - Really? It's just written on the bulletin board."

As soon as Lact started talking, Letty pushed her ears against her head. With a bitter smile on their face, the chiffons approached with interest.

"There are many reports from players who are currently exploring the seventh tier, so I feel that it is highly reliable." Well, it's about the board information..... "

Bulletin boards are easy to obtain information about instantly, but on the other hand, they are a little unreliable due to their strong anonymity. If you want more reliable information, the wiki where the editor's data stays in the history is better.

However, as Lact says, players who have reached the seventh tier at this stage are somewhat more likely to be true (·) face (·) eyes (·). It may be premature to conclude that such a player's writing is an unfounded gossip.

"As you can see, it's dark here, isn't it?" That's why I walked around carefully observing my surroundings. "

Not just the seventh tier, but the record storage area is pitch dark. In some cases, the restoration of the power supply area has not been completed, but the facility itself is designed to function as low-costly as possible, so the original lighting seems to be low. Fortunately, the dwarves seem to have a certain amount of night vision, and they won't be too inconvenient if it's a little dark.

Well, we pioneers are struggling except for the model-links--the cat-type-liikan slope.

"I saw golden eyes in the dark aisle!" That's why I have to talk to you. It didn't hit me, and it didn't fall into a trap. Even if I set up cameras and sensors, they don't hit me. "

"Yes. You really look like a ghost"

"I wonder," summed up the lacto. Chiffon seemed to have no resistance to this, but rather seemed to be betting on excitement.

But isn't that a misunderstanding or a reflection of light?

And the plasma!

Amy pointed out, and Letty stacked it up.

"Anyway, is there anything wrong with the plasma?" Your eyes are glowing in the dark. "

Like the lights of an unconfirmed, fast-moving machine guard.

I wonder if that's the case.

Amy tries to twist something that seems realistic, but Lacto frowns.

"If you are a new kind of machine guard, please leave it to me." I'll knock you out before you get away with it! Even if it's a ghost, I'll knock it out! "

Torka says things that Torka is dependable and uneasy about. It was strange that her swords could be slashed even by an opponent who wasn't physically slashed.

Isn't it more of a specialty to do this kind of thing?

Lacto came up with the story because he was watching his surroundings. He shakes his head in amazement as he suddenly rests on the table.

"... I can talk about curses, though." Spiritual Arts is not a specialty.

Maple is probably more of a specialist.

When the name is spoken, Toka openly makes the mouth a letter to.

Speaking of which, how are everyone in the Red Mirage lately?

"I don't know. It seems that he's playing at the second base.

Looks like the maples are doing well.

It may be that Toka was reluctant to go to a more difficult second base.

"Well, the mochi is a mochi shop, so let's leave the haunting fuss to the spiritualists." Lettie and the others just have to think about breaking the machine. ”

"I don't know about that, but..."

Drawing a short-circuit conclusion, Letty forcibly discontinues the topic. She walked out, waving her ears, saying that she would really come out if she had told the story any more.

"Mostly, I don't think that ghosts are unscientific in this world. You should follow reason and theory and think calmly.”

"No, I think it's been a bit of a fantasy lately."

Amy slammed into Letty's shoulder.

... the White God Beast is quite a fantasy.

I looked down at the white deer that walked at my feet. He looked bored and licked my hand when I got hungry.

"You ate an apple during the break."

When he said that, he snorted lightly with a white face.

I'm so sorry!?

At that moment, Letty's scream suddenly resounded. Everyone holds their weapons as if they were an enemy attack, but they can only see the darkness around them. Only Letty, who was at the forefront, held the hammer, trembling with bullshit.

What's the matter, Letty?

"Hwa, hwa..."

She rushes over in a hurry to hear the situation, but she just leaks an unprofessional voice. With that, I pointed forward with a small trembling.

"I-I have golden eyes...!"

Golden eyes?

Lacto just said it. A ghost with golden eyes that appears in the seventh hierarchy. The figure is not captured, and the substance is not known as the sky.

Isn't that a mistake?

No! I saw it!

As she asks, she resolutely returns. Experienced she is likely to make few mistakes when spotting enemies, and it is often a good idea to be cautious when you discover something with the Lycan slope, a superior type of sensory instrument in the first place.

"Hin hin hin..."

"Oh, good, good."

When she stroked Letty's head, which snorted, she pressed her forehead against. It was unusual to see Letty so weak, and I was having trouble reacting.

"Hmm. I don't see any signs of that."

"Why don't you shoot Arts indiscriminately?"

Isn't it a waste of nanopowder on the boulders?

Amy and the others are wary of their surroundings, but they don't seem to be able to find anything. I wondered if it was still Letty's fault.

"--Oh! That's amazing!"

Lettie suddenly raised her ears.

She pulls out a hammer in a flowing place and glances at the wall of the aisle.

"[Space-time wave-like distortion type destruction technique] -"

The space around her ripples. A red, prickly effect envelops it.

”- [Crushing!]”

Letty slammed the wall without hesitation. The impact shakes the dimension and destroys the raison d 'être of matter. Rigid walls that do not accept any existing interference are crushed in a dumbfounded manner.

Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Letty raised a strange voice. The wall breaks down with a roar.

"Ah! I caught it!"

Shortly thereafter, Toka jumps across the wall.

The silver blade sparkles in the earth smoke.

Guippi!?

The tip of the great sword was pushed against the wall. Moreover, it was the ugly dwarf with pale skin who screamed. It glowed golden with its gleaming eyes and looked at us with a frightened look.
