Episode 335
: Dull!
A chanical device that pours out steam.
Its size far exceeded X’s expectations.
Each cogwheel was as big as an average building, and the iron bars seen here and there were so high that their ends were unrecognizable.
“Why do we need a device like this?”
Dull!
No matter how much of a chanical expert you were, you could at least recognize that the chanical device in front of you was responsible for energy.
Swallowing his surprise, X moved forward. And I witnessed it.
“…What is this underground city?”
Lots of buildings!
It looked as if a major city on earth had been moved here.
The building was lit by chanical devices, but of course there were no people there.
X couldn’t help but be shocked.
‘Why is this underground city located underground in Xernis?’
Perhaps Jaul didn’t know either. If I had known, I would have told you about it a long ti ago.
I racked my brain, but there was no way I could co up with an answer. So, X decided to enjoy this situation for now.
“What should we explore first?”
Let’s take a look!
With a moderate sense of excitent, X walked through the mysterious underground city.
It looked like a replica of an earthly city, but there were differences.
X looked at the ground.
“Are you saying it’s a village on an iron plate?”
The floor on which the underground city was built was not ordinary dirt. It was a steel plate made of cold tal.
X got up and diligently inspected the underground city.
“…Even if I can’t do it, I can still be at least as good as Beneta, right?”
Pabababak!
However, even if I walked with the help of a rope, I could not see the end of the underground city.
As I walked and walked, I passed many buildings and fountains with steam gushing out instead of water.
X was shocked for a mont.
‘How big is this city?’
How much is the cost of iron invested alone?
I can guarantee that more gold was invested than Xernis’ budget for several years. So I began to wonder about the identity of this underground city.
“I think it will be difficult to see the end.”
X turned around and went back the way he ca. anwhile, I was shaking my head.
No matter how much I thought about it, in the end there was only one possibility. X’s eyes narrowed.
“…Fragnts of a collapsed world.”
The entire underground city is a fragnt of a collapsed world! If you think like that, all doubts disappear.
‘It is possible to explain that Zawul did not know of the existence of this city and that the Dongle tribe did not discover this underground city. ‘Because Fate’s NPCs are currently unable to properly recognize the fragnts of the collapsed world.’
Of course, there were other possibilities. But my intuition told that this was the most likely one.
Dull!
X stood in front of the giant chanical device again.
Lightly.
X sighed as he tried to put his hand on it.
“A bad relationship is tougher than beef tendon.”
Gourt King!
I promised myself that I would forget as much as I had suffered, but… there was a high probability that I would see the past as a fantasy of the king of gourts.
Is it still possible?
X placed his hand on the huge chanical device.
Tiroling!
A notification rings without fail.
[The fantasy begins!]
*
Sigh!
X ca to his senses due to a deafening roar.
Huge crowd.
The face was full of fear.
‘Where is this anyway?’
Shaking my head.
X shook his head and looked around.
Dull!
A familiar sight.
I could see the underground city I had just seen. But for so reason, I could see a clear sky above my head.
‘Well, in the previous worldview, it was a city on earth?’
A plausible idea.
But X’s guess was wrong.
Slut!
“huh?”
A pigeon skimming over the city. As I looked after the pigeon, I saw a tall mountain. No, to be exact, the top of the mountain was visible!
X opened his mouth in confusion.
“…It’s a floating city?”
It was like that.
The mysterious underground city could fly! When I thought about it that way, I also understood the huge chanical equipnt and the floor that was made of iron plates.
It was absurd. The technology is enough to easily lift a city like this into the sky.
“It’s on a different level from the current Fate worldview.”
Fragnts of a collapsed world 29.
In other words, the deleted 29th worldview.
That was the na of the underground city I saw before the vision began.
Anyway, the ti has co for the King of Gourt to reveal himself. Before X could even think about it, a loud cheering sound was heard.
“hot!”
bang!
A man walking in the air without wings. The face glimpsed through the helt was, of course, that of the Gourt King.
There was nothing to be surprised about now. X was also more surprised by the equipnt he was wearing than the Gourt King.
“Those aren’t normal shoes, are they?”
Shoes spewing out flas!
Those shoes were allowing the Gourt King to fly freely.
Greed begins to boil over! Even if I didn’t see the effect, it seed like it would definitely be a unique item.
‘Was it made with technology from this worldview? Well, it makes no sense to make a single person unable to fly when it is enough to build a flying city. By the way, can this technology be restored?’
Degurrr!
X’s head is rolling. However, X’s brain activity soon stopped.
“…!”
The opponent that the Gourt King was fighting with.
Because the enemy’s appearance was extrely familiar.
“Soone else…!”
No, to be precise, it was energy. A foreign energy unique to other beings.
The monster in the form of a giant crow appeared to be a creature of another being.
X suddenly couldn’t help but sweat.
‘The Gourt King was fighting another being here too.’
Well, it’s impossible for the Gourt King to have any mories of the deleted world view, but…
I thought that the Gourt King was also a very pitiful NPC. Judging from the visions I had seen so far, it seed like my previous world view was all about suffering and death.
Bang bang!
An illusion that plays out gradually and rapidly.
The fate of the winner was also revealed.
“The difference is too drastic.”
A gourt king surrounded by creatures.
The Gourt King, exhausted from the battle, seed to have no strength to escape the siege. The crowd in the air city scread.
So people calmly waited for death, while others resented the Gourt King.
“That’s how people live.”
Shake!
Vision starting to blur.
It seed like the fantasy would end with the Gourt King’s warrior.
Even if it was a bad relationship, what good would it do to see a familiar face die? This was when X tried to take his eyes off the Gourt King.
“…Why are you putting through this ordeal even in this life!”
The Gourt King’s shouting reached my ears. At the sa ti, X’s eyebrows twitched.
“You just said this life…?”
The fantasy was over before I could even feel it.
*
Flash!
X opened his eyes.
Degurrr.
X’s rolling eyes. X, who was thinking about sothing, opened his mouth.
“…The Gourt King rembered his past life.”
When he heard the word “this life,” X, who was quick-witted, was able to recognize it.
The Gourt King knows his past life! When I thought about it that way, I began to understand the current Gourt King’s actions to so extent.
Since I must have lived a life that has been repeated dozens of tis, I suddenly felt like my current life might feel futile.
Buck buck.
X scratched his head.
“An NPC who rembers his past life.”
I could tell.
There is no other NPC like this in Fate World! But the thought ended there. X had not forgotten his promise from the past.
“So what do you want to do?”
My thoughts on him end here!
X wanted to focus on quests and rewards rather than Gourt King. I can’t avoid it forever, but I wanted to avoid trouble for the ti being.
“Let see.”
Leo Gagalli’s quest had already been successful. The mont you defeated the chanical angel, the dungeon’s boss monster, you cleared the quest.
In X’s hand was a shining compass.
-Leo Gagali’s Compass (Unique)
A compass used by explorer Leo Gagali. His knowledge is sealed.
Limits: None
Special Effects: The compass points to the location of the most valuable treasure relic dungeon near the user once every 24 hours. If the target is found within the ti limit, the effect is imdiately renewed.
“…Oh my.”
Indeed, the effect of the great explorer’s knowledge!
It could be said that it was a perfect effect for X, the owner of uncontrollable greed.
Naturally, the compass was currently pointing towards the Machine City.
‘Honestly, it’s true that I’m looking forward to this one more.’
A flying city!
Even if it were a fragnt of a collapsed world, wouldn’t the effect still be effective?
Looking at the chanical device that is still operating normally, I had such expectations.
“I see a lot of levers, so this is the key.”
X, who carefully looked around the device, was able to find the control panel of the chanical device.
-Fragnts of a collapsed world 29 (Quest)
These are fragnts of a collapsed and collapsed world. We may be able to reveal the secrets of Fate World.
Special Effects: ?
“…Shall we try pulling it first?”
Naturally, there was no instructions on how to operate it.
Slam!
X pulled the lever fearlessly, like a chanical genius. Fortunately, pulling one lever did not cause any malfunction or stop the machine.
Instead…
Tiroring!
A notification rang in X’s ears.
“Hehe.”
The corners of X’s mouth rose after checking the ssage. I quickly rummaged through my inventory. I took out chanical devices of unknown purpose that had been dropped by monsters in the technology room.
“Of course, if you’re going to use dog poop for dicine, you have to pick it up in advance!”
*
[Recovery rate: 10.4%]
Materials to restore the floating city!
It was a chanical device imbued with sophisticated technology.
Even though all the chanical devices they had collected were invested, it was impossible to completely restore the floating city.
That’s why X was roasting Zawl.
“Tech room? Yes, there was a place like that. But a city in the air? I’m not sure about that. “The only things we were developing were chanical wolves and chanized infantry.”
Zawl’s puzzled reaction.
X nodded.
‘It looks like a fragnt of a collapsed world.’
The floating city was hidden deep inside the technology room.
If it weren’t for the fragnts of the collapsed world, it would have been strange not to have noticed.
Zawl asked X.
“So, are you planning to restore the technology room where the essence of Xernis’ technology from the past is gathered?”
“I really need your tech room!”
“Yes, with Xernis’s current labor and funds, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch. Once you give your approval, we will begin restoration imdiately.”
Tiroling!
[Gold needed for recovery: 800,000 gold]
800,000 gold!
“There are tens of thousands of bottles of spices.”
X gave his approval while coughing up blood.
It was unknown whether the floating city, a fragnt of a collapsed world, knew the value of more than 800,000 gold, but…
“Technology is what enriches and strengthens a nation. Now I understand what the key is without having to teach anything.
Wasn’t there a chanical cow among Xernis’s technologies? X had dark intentions like an evil lord.
‘If you can’t save the main shrine with a flying city, you can save the main shrine with a chanical cow. The era of Xernis, where 24-hour work does not stop, will begin!’
