Window Memories - Old Heroes

Quest/Mine Deep Lurkers (1)

In the dark electronic virtual space, with the name of the Fountain of Knowledge, they were still exchanging opinions today for "WL" - MMO [Souls] ".

Meermill 2: Hey, that was too much.

Meermill 1: "Even if we kept the Grand Quest from happening any longer, it would have led to a full-scale tsunami."

Meermill 3: "Yeah, well, it can't be a bad idea to kill locals unnecessarily. Thank you to Geo... don't stop saying you made it."

Meermill 2: "After that, I just want to somehow direct you to an internal search."

Meermill 1: "... this is a complete coincidence, but thanks to those kids (...) it's going to work too"

Meermill 2: Um, kinda pathetic.

Meermill 1: Yeah, but I can't interfere much with them.

Meermill 2: "Ugh... Geo, I hope you make it"

Meermill 3: "... let it go."

Meermill 1: "If... we should make it in time"

Meermill 2 or 3: "Huh?

Meermill 1: "Fortunately, things are in the regular dungeon that is our domain of domination. So new...... '

Meermill 2:... I see, if it is indeed an event, you can interfere!

Meermill 3: Two birds a stone! After that... upload as much as you can... '

Meermill 2: "So Geo Chi..."

The electronic sages exchange opinions with each other at the same time quickly program and sequentially incorporate event orders (commands) into their own dominant area, the pits (dungeons).

It was by them, both creators and programmers at the same time as being game masters, as well as the moment when the event was newly added.

The earth dragon worm (bug mall) never disappeared after laying low on the ground.

To say that... this is not a demon prepared by 'Window', but a demon who lived in a normal... labyrinth, I guess.

Then you should earn quite a bit if you take the Crusade Proof site to your guild.

In addition to this bonus, this is an unexpected extra income for escort requests.

"Uni, Ruf, sure...... the proof site for the earthdragon worm (bug mall) should have been the right wrist. Cut it off and bring it."

"Yes, Master Geo"

"Understood!

"Ah, sir, I'll help you."

When two people ran out on my instructions, several of the miners offered to do so.

The remains of the demons are scattered quite extensively... to be honest it helps.

Thank you. Thank you. I decided to ask you for a hand.

"Sir... is it just your right hand? I'm not taking the outer shell home...?

One of the miners who offered to help, Gatai, was good, and the man with the nasty look of a ship's eye asked so strangely.

This meat is edible, but the outer shell sells for a good price as a protective material.

But anyway, these guys are about the size of Dalai, and they're all over the place.

"... I'm going to take the whole thing home for one or two. You can't take this amount back to the boulder."

... but there's no way to bring home this much.

I don't even think I'm going to throw it in the crowd circle.

"Well, then... why don't you throw it away?

"For the most part, I don't know... if you want to help me collect my right hand, you can use the rest of my body if you want."

"Go! Thank you. Easy! You heard me, you guys! My husband will split the prey!

"Whoa! Thank you. Easy! Sir!"

"Hey, all this prey, it's inside"

"Easy for you! Sir!"

In cash, he also began to flock to the remains of the bug mall at the same time as the other miners he had been watching.

Ma, if I could take one home... ten days from them... no, if I suck, it would be equivalent to a month's worth of money. I don't know.

"Dear Gio, good luck. It was an unexpected incident, but I appreciate the ad hoc response."

The miners were followed by Miss Fife, the maid accompanying Miss Torschel.

Despite all this fuss, as usual, there is no mess in that outfit.

"Oh, Miss Fife. Is Miss Torschel safe?

"Yeah, thanks to you. Neither do the miners seem to have such major injuries. Just..."

The look on Miss Fife's face clouds slightly.

"Just what?

"Stone-picking children... they went right into the pit after cooking out, but I can't see them"

"... what?

"These are children who have no power to fight. It may already be too late…"

"... why don't you just leave me alone?"

"Yeah, it's... it's painful to keep the kids who ate my rice cooking looking so delicious. At least just make sure it's cheap."

"Dear Gio..."

"Geo..."

Uni and Ruff, who were back at some point, are also looking up at me like they said something.

Chi, that's good, that's good.

"... but hey, I got a bonus too. I need to be in aftercare."

Perhaps both bug malls have already been eaten, but do you want to confirm whether it is cheap or not?

The three of us quickly decided to enter the pit for the investigation.

If the kids are still alive, don't argue for a moment.

Proceeding through the entrance, it was quickly a large square.

They say the ore pickers were mainly gathering here.

What this means is that the kids were around here, too.

"Collapse... Ya Cancer"

The first basement level large hall of the pit.

I tentatively decided to call it that, but there was a big hole in the ground.

... I see, is that why the bug malls came out of here on the ground?

"... All right, we're going down. Sounds pretty deep, let the rope drip."

When I took the 20-meter rope out of "Items Little," I tied it to a nearby rock with a tight knot.

I usually carry thinner, shorter items because this is the only length of rope that makes me quite luggage, but it was useful to stick it in from my home warehouse because I could use 'little item'.

I make knots on this rope at 50cm intervals, so even Uni will manage to use it.

"... All right, I'll go down first and keep the rope tip fixed, so come down slowly"

"Yes, sir"

"Ruff is fine! Rather no rope, Te too, Ikel!

"Oh, fool, don't jump! Risk of collapse...... slow down!... get off softly."

I manage to hold down the roots of Ruff, who tried to jump in first to show me a good place.

"Wahoo!? Ok, ok, ok... ok, neck..."

Oh, you shouldn't. I forgot about Godhand...

He gently slapped Ruff's cheek back to sanity, telling him firmly not to go ahead on his own, and then went down into the hole again.

"Wide...... na"

It was a cave made of solid rock walls.

Perhaps the walls themselves emit light that is native to the Hikarigoke species.

But that doesn't ensure enough vision, so prepare the Demon Stone Lantern.

This is an excellent object filled with demonic stones that have been adjusted to absorb magic and self-emit in a fist cage made of bamboo tags (straw), just in case you drop it, the bamboo cage will not become a cushion and break.

The demon stone in the contents is also enough scum stone, which can be considered a necessity when diving into an underground dungeon.

"Nearby...... hey. This guy's looking for bones."

At the time I accidentally leaked my sigh, making sure the cave continued deep into the darkness beyond the reach of light.

'Window' opened automatically in front of me, displaying the text (text).

'Event start conditions have been met. Grand Quest "The Deep Diver in the Mine" and Subquest "Rescue the Children" have begun

The color of the text changes sequentially from the beginning, while the voice of 'Window' reads out its contents.

Say, hey.

An event. An event.

You want me to take a look at the flowers for spring?

"Dj, Geo! This voice!?

"Uh... don't worry about it. It's not the enemy. Well, what the... Look, I would have gotten a magic weapon."

"Wahoo!... the voice of Exchange!

Ruff, are you convinced with that?

I still don't trust you.

'The Grand Quest is a series of events that lead to the ultimate goal of preventing a great tsunami. Step through the four root dungeons scattered across the continent. Completing these four limits the supply of magic to other normal dungeons and can contain the occurrence of demons'

... Hey, something's getting epic.

Only this continent has a 'dungeon' where demons keep gushing because of its' root dungeon '.

"Each, the root dungeon has a boss waiting at the bottom. Crusading this will clear it up. This' Lugard Mine Pit 'will be the easiest dungeon of the four, so I suggest you proceed from this quest.'

... dude.

Well, even I dreamed of a hero that wasn't in the pattern, and I decided to return to the adventurer.

Oh, aren't you too big to go!?

Honestly, the load is heavy.

No, more than that, yeah.

"Hey tsunamis and root dungeons also bother me... we came here to find people. You... you said something that bothered you, didn't you?

'Then we move on to the description of the subquest'

Shit, damn windows...... still ignore what we say about cancer.

"Subquest," Rescue the Children. "

"Uh, yeah, that's it. Could it be..."

"Rescue three children: 'Coral', 'Lug' and 'Dolphin' caught in the crash of the pit. There is no particular time limit, but debilitating deaths due to taking too much time fall under the failure requirement.

"Uh... was that the name..."

"Wrong y. Coral in the carriage, said his name te"

"Right, I'm probably pretty sure those three"

If that's what Ruff and Uni would say, I'm pretty sure.

... Hi At this age, it's been a hundred million years to remember people's names.

'Subquest success or failure does not affect Grand Quest, but you can earn a separate reward'

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

... Well, thank you for the reward.

"... OK, I guess from the way you say 'window', it looks like the kids are still safe... but I've never hurried."

"Well, I don't know when the children will be attacked by demons."

"Hmm... I guess I'll be fine"

"A debilitating death for taking too much time falls under the failure requirement," "Window said.

Conversely, "if a demon strikes you and you die" doesn't fail... but it's too unnatural as a condition.

Instead, there will be places where demons can't come in, or where they are protected by 'windows' stretched out in the junction...

"The question is... where are you?"

"Can't you see it in the 'map' function?"

Reminds me in the words of Uni. Oh, you totally forgot, map feature.

"You don't seem to be in the basement."

When the map function was called, almost the entire area of the basement bi-level was displayed.

Was it fifty meters square that I could confirm for sure?

The only markers shown are… us and some red ones?

The red one was a "hostile life form." Probably a demon, though.

... Hmm, that's too useful a feature in a dungeon. But...

"... what do you mean you're not in this hierarchy? If it fell through that hole, it wouldn't have gone that far."

Chi, "Window," did you move the kids somewhere?

You don't want me to clear it that easily.

"... for now, can we just go for the bottom floor while searching one floor at a time"

... Damn, don't let the old man push you...
