We have a level system in place for mankind.

A prefectural engineer and worker came to Jesus City to revive the electricity in the building we agreed upon at the town hall and in the building we designated. Maybe because we defeated the guardian of the Dragon Ward, or because he did power distribution work to Higashigami Town. However, we have to provide the gasoline and light oil necessary for heavy equipment and machinery used for construction.

Gasoline and light oil seem to be valuable throughout the prefecture. We gathered the rice machines and washing machines in the town in the building where the convenience store was located. To distribute electricity there for laundry and rice milling.

At first, I was thinking of making the nursery school a coin laundry facility, but I found that there was an old well near the convenience store, and I decided to collect the washing machine at the convenience store because if I revived the well, the water would be free to use.

The rice refiner chose a machine capable of both sliding and refined rice. Now you can eat rice when you take it to a machine and treat it in a state of sawdust.

I have a stockpile of detergent to use in the washing machine, so I think it will be OK for the time being. But if we think about the future, we have to think of a substitute.

I also made electricity available to my log houses, Muto's houses, and the lumberjacks. The revival of the sawmill will be a big plus for Higashigami.

"This year's crops aren't going to be very promising."

The river told us we were going hunting at the log house.

When that happens, Mr. Muto's fishing and our activities in the food area will be important.

According to Muto, fishery resources are increasing due to a sharp decline in the number of fishermen. Now that we have light oil, it seems that we are planning a full-scale fishery using fishing boats.

There are only a few fuels, so it will only be a few times.

We're ready to hunt. We're heading to the food area. On the way, I met Hiroki.

"If you're going to the food area now, take me with you."

"What happened to Tadahiro and Sanya?

When Kawai asked, he said he went to Koyama Farm. I thought it would be better to have a lot of manpower.

I did it...

Upon entering Kusandragon Ward from Koki Ward, I encountered a Swordsaurus. The giant body, which weighs about two tons, is shaking and approaching.

Kawai wants to try out a new skill, so he asked me to leave it to him.

"Are you okay?

When I asked her about it, she said there was nothing to worry about.

Kawai's newly acquired skill is the "Five Thunderclaps". It seems to be the secret of Taoists, but I don't know anything about it either. The river took a big breath in in a karate style.

At that moment, something like a sticking and discharge phenomenon ran on the surface of the body of the river well. And we start rushing at an incredible speed. In an instant, he put it on the side of the Swordsaurus and slapped it in the belly of a strange beast.

It was an attack that wouldn't have worked normally. However, the slap caused the Swordsaurus giant to rise and lie down. There seems to be some kind of power coming from the palm of the river well.

"Wow, what kind of skills are you using?

Hiroki shouted in surprise.

"All right, [Landmines], we're in trouble."

The river jumped and kicked into the head of the lying swordsaurus. It sounds like a thunderbolt has fallen, and an explosion occurs inside the Weirdo. My eyes popped out of the head and I couldn't breathe.

The "Five Thunderclaps" used by Kawai can be used to repel enemy attacks by capturing lightning at Skill Level 1 [Five Thunderclaps], enable quick movement at Skill Level 2 [Five Thunderclaps], knock enemies into the ground by slapping at Skill Level 3 [Heaven Thunderclaps], and destroy enemies' interior by kicking at Skill Level 4 [Mines].

"Come on, Kojiro. That would be amazing."

Kawai seems to be good at it. I nod to agree. Then, like Misaki teases,

"Looks like Michiharu has acquired some delicate skills."

Misaki-san, I don't think it's Michiharu's fault.

Elena picked up the heart stone and gave it to the river well.

"It was really amazing."

"Elena is kind. Compared to that....."

Misaki, who noticed that the river was flickering, pulled the river's ear.

"Itte....."

"What's wrong with me?

"Nothing. Kojiro, don't laugh. Help me."

Except for Kawai, he was laughing.

We enter the park from Kusandragon Ward. Hiroki was also a guardian killer, so I put him in. Hiroki circles his eyes at the entrance to the food area he saw for the first time.

"Don't be surprised at this. It's going to be amazing."

Kawai was curious about Hiroki's reaction.

We moved to the food area.

Wow...

Hiroki shouted at the view of the food area.

"The food area was so big. Are you sure it's not another planet?

I shook my head and pointed to a light source like the sun.

"That sun-like thing won't work over time. If it were a planet, it wouldn't be possible."

"So, what's that sun-like thing?

I shrugged and said, "I don't know."

"You can't create a world like this without the power of God. I wonder if that voice is God."

Nobody answered Hiroki's question. We stopped thinking and went to the place where we dug the potatoes last time. There were traces of digging. However, the new bubbly potato grass has grown back to its original state. When I dug it up, I found out that a tiny potato like a pussy balls was growing. At this rate, it will return to its original state in a few days.

"Growth is very fast. There's no need to worry about digging up the potatoes."

"That's right. I have to think of a delicious way to cook this sweet potato."

Elena liked a slightly different flavor than potatoes. Salads and garlets made with sweet potatoes are particularly popular with kindergarten children.

"First, let's dig out the potatoes. The norm is two tons."

Manually digging out two tons of potatoes is a difficult task. Even if you bring agricultural equipment, ordinary people are tired. But as we level-up, we dig back into the soil and harvest the sweet potatoes.

"It's time to fill up the big shadow bag."

There are two shadow bags filled with about a ton of sweet potatoes. I sank my shadow bag into the shadow space and looked around.

"What will you do next?

Hiroki asks questions and Elena answers.

"It's an armored pig hunt. You took the meat with you the other day. There it is."

"The meat was delicious. Can you eat it again? Let's hunt."

Hiroki was in a good mood and started looking for armored pigs. In the vast grasslands, a flock of armored pigs enters your eyes. The herd consists of five or six groups of twenty or more.

"Let's hunt that."

Hiroki pointed to the largest herd. I sigh when I see the herd. It's a herd of about forty.

"What if the armored pig retaliates? If you get hit with 40, it'll be tough."

"Well... then, a small herd would be better."

We decided to target a swarm of six. I wanted to take down at least two, or four, if I could.

Hiroki also participated in the hunt, but was not very active. The weapon was a sword, so I had to approach it, and it hit the armor pig's body and flew away.

The armored pig was fired with "lightning surgery" spherical electricity . I hit an armored pig, but I can't get rid of it. Misaki appeared there and cut the neck of the armored pig from the bottom with a razor blade. The blow knocked the armored pig down.

We took down four armored pigs. When I saw Hiroki, I dropped my shoulders a little.

"What's wrong?

"I couldn't make it."

"It's not impossible for a weapon to be a regular sword. Let's make some kind of weapon."

"Really... definitely!

Hiroki seemed to feel the limitations of a sword as a weapon. We picked fruit in the woods before leaving the food area.

Muto was waiting for us back in Higashigami.

"So, did you get the food as planned?

"Yeah, I got four armored pigs."

"Good. I accidentally told the town council about your trip to the food area and they told me they wanted to eat pork with armor."

"I was going to distribute what I brought back from the food area to the people in town, but I didn't think about how to distribute it."

Well then, why don't you set up a tent in the river and distribute it there. Wouldn't it be nice to distribute 200 grams of meat per person as a guide? "

The news spread throughout Higashigami in an instant. The people of the town gathered in the riverbank with bags and shopping baskets. It is the Muto Explorers and their families who are in charge of the scene.

We'll be tired, so dismantling and distributing have been eliminated. Bring the nursery, Tadahiro, and Sanya along to start cooking with the meat of the armored pig that was first cut in the back of the tent.

What I'm making is a pork skewer. Charred armoured pig meat smells good and stimulates appetite. It was seasoned only with salt, but it was exquisite. I also eat the fluffy potatoes in a steamer. This was also delicious.

The children also have their eyes shining and their cheeks stretched.

"I want a beer at a time like this."

Kawai nodded when I murmured.

"Can't you make beer in a snow-capped brewery? I'll ask you next time."

Looking at the front of the tent, there is a row. The children were excited when they came to peek at the demolition work of the armored pig. The recipients of the rations have a nice look on their faces.

I guess he was worried about food because he wasn't a good cook. Looking at the faces of people in such a town, I felt proud to have become a Explorer.

And they thanked me for the meat, and the sweet potatoes, and the fruit. "Thank you" is just one word, but I'm asexually happy.

One year after the collapse of civilization began. It feels like I'm stepping on it for a while. I am worried about what will happen in the future, but there are expectations that there may be something ahead. I'm hoping there's something else, just like the voice of the example has prepared a food area for us.
