Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1296
Only Noblemtl
Episode 1296. Don’t trust me, look at the situation.
Elio felt dizzy from Luna Mylus’ words.
It was Manaptras, known as the creator god of this world, who wished for the death of Kama Devyas (the Heavenly Man) and Ushas Undra (the Golden Temple).
But Ushas Undra was the messenger of the creator god Manapthras.
“So, Mana Trass and Ushas Undra were on the same side?”
“It must have been like that at first. So, Ushas Undra took the lead in pioneering the Abyss.”
“I feel dizzy. “What is the steel golem in the Abyss?”
“That’s a story that wasn’t even recorded in ancient history. “Only the gods know.”
Luna Mylus kept his mouth shut at that point.
I thought I could figure it out if I thought about it deeply, but I didn’t try to dig into it because it would only hasten my union with the goddess.
Elio also quickly changed the topic when he said, ‘Only the gods know.’
He also wants Luna Mylus to remain by his side for a long time.
“Viscount Norton. “I want to see the steel golem move. Is that possible?”
“That’s not possible.”
“why?”
Elio stared at him at his unexpectedly firm refusal.
When I came this far and saw that they said no, I thought there must be a reason.
“I don’t know how to maneuver a steel golem, as it is the domain of magic engineers. The kingdom’s magic engineer needs to come and take care of it.”
“aha. So, if something breaks or is damaged during battle, how do I repair it?”
“When the Royal Army requests damaged parts, they are sent from here. “If it hits the right spot, it will stick on its own.”
“If you hit just the right part, it will stick? “I heard there are parts that don’t stick?”
“Even in the same area, there are subtle differences in shape. Those things are categorized separately. In the case of completed steel golems, the steel parts are highly versatile. So, it is not difficult to replace the damaged part. Of course, if there are steel parts.”
“If I want to use a steel golem, I’ll have to work hard to mine steel parts in the mine, right?”
“That’s why we are trying to further strengthen our control of the Abyss.”
Elio nodded and spoke to the group.
“I have no further questions. “If you want to know anything more about mines or steel golems, ask Viscount Norton now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Count Larva Omar and Fabian clung to Viscount Norton Sherwood.
There seem to be a lot of questions about the steel golem as it is active in the war against the empire.
Unlike the two active knights, the other adventurers did not show much interest.
Paladin Almet Harev was also upset, perhaps because it had nothing to do with the church.
Suddenly, Elio asked Luna Mylus.
“Do you have any questions, Sister Saint?”
“I can do something myself.”
“Young lady likes to learn and master everything.”
“This is not my world. “It’s a waste of time to worry about such things.”
A lonely smile appeared on her face.
Nowadays, we can understand everything we see without even trying.
This means that the boundary with the goddess has been broken down.
The time of union, which was predicted to be about a year later, is just around the corner.
The cause may have been the excessive use of divine power in treating Elio.
She didn’t want to waste the little time she had left on something in vain.
Moreover, the more you delve into new knowledge, the faster your time will decrease.
So, even if it aroused some curiosity, it was better to ignore it and pretend not to see it.
Viscount Norton Sherwood took Count Larva Omar and Fabian in front of the steel golem and chatted loudly.
After a while, Count Larva Omar and Fabian returned, looking like they had gotten everything they wanted.
Elio asked Fabian.
“So what did you get?”
“no. “They say they don’t know everything that’s crucial.”
“I’m not surprised. Wouldn’t a magic engineer know that? “What would a knight who only wields a sword know?”
“I asked if I could get a steel part, but all I got was a lot of insults.”
“If it were you, would you give it to me?”
“I won’t give it to you. Ask Sir Lagoa for one. If Lord Lagoa asks for it, I will give it to you.”
“What should I do with a piece of that?”
“What are you doing? “If I have no use for it, can’t I just sell it to the Empire or the Northern Kingdom?”
“I am not a businessman.”
“You know that. But you still haven’t turned down any lucrative work, have you?”
“That’s because I had to go find Kama Devias and Ushas Undra. Now that I know where it is, I don’t have to spend any money. “There are many places to extort money.”
It seemed like I could earn hundreds of gold just by going around the Abyss once.
It’s not because there’s treasure lying around, but it’s because you get money as a settlement from a mercenary group that is fighting.
Fabian understood what Elio meant, but he did not give up.
“With one steel part, you don’t have to go through the trouble of extorting money.”
“Why is that such a hassle? “How fun is it?”
Fabian, who knew Elio’s eccentric personality, could not refute it.
This is because, unlike other nobles who pretended to be polite, Count Elio Lagoa enjoyed arguing – like the bastards who gave up on noble families.
In the end, Fabian had to give up on getting the steel parts.
‘Tsk, I was thinking of offering steel parts to the North or the Empire and receiving a fief.’
In times like today, a single steel part can be a huge achievement.
But wouldn’t Count Larva Omar know?
With his own skills, he couldn’t just carry a piece of iron with him.
Eventually, Elio and his party left the mining town with Viscount Norton Sherwood seeing them off.
Fabian glanced at the mine several times until his view was blocked by the fence.
Elio held his stomach and laughed at his puppy-like appearance.
“Kkkkkkkkkk! Holy girl, look at that greedy guy’s face. “That regretful expression is exactly the same as old man Shim, isn’t it?”
“Don’t tease me too much. Anyone who has seen steel parts can do that.”
“Anyone? “Other people take care of steel parts.”
“That’s because you’re afraid of Viscount Sherwood.”
“Lord Omar said the same thing?”
“He was detached. “You can’t compare a sword master’s heart to that of an ordinary person.”
In fact, Count Larva Omar had already made up his mind because taking steel parts as if robbing them could cause diplomatic problems.
Luna Mylus, who possesses transcendental wisdom, guessed that this would be the case, but it was disguised as ‘detachment’ purely to save Count Larva Omar’s face.
The higher you go to the top of Mount Petra, the smaller the mine becomes.
Of course, the shimmering blue guard post also disappeared.
In particular, the mine operated by the mercenary guild was so open that Elio and the others were surprised.
Most mining operations were run by kingdoms or mercenary guilds.
Among the mercenary guilds, some were based in the empire, and they were quite wary of the appearance of outsiders.
They are afraid that the flames of war between the Empire and the Southern Kingdom will spread to them.
Elio and his party, who entered the tunnels of the Ferdom mine, showed no interest in other mines.
The mercenaries in the mine didn’t bother to chase after them and cause trouble, so the road to ‘Skull Valley’ was smooth.
At dusk, Elio and his group finally reached the top of Mount Petra.
To be exact, it is one of several mountain peaks that stretch out like a dragon’s spine.
Elio muttered as he looked at Mount Petra, which was dyed red by the setting sun.
“Yah! “It’s spectacular.”
Endless smooth ridges and flocks of unidentified birds flying above them.
It was so beautiful that I couldn’t tell if it was reality or fantasy.
Fabian, who was looking down at the mountain next to him, grumbled.
“If I had known that Petra Mountain was this large, I should have brought Merdev with me. “I don’t know if I’ll be able to find the Valley of the Skull.”
“What don’t you know? “If you just go down the road, you’ll find the Valley of the Skull.”
“And what if there comes a crossroads?”
“Isn’t a crossroads a road? “Just follow along.”
“That’s why Lord Lagoa gets lost every time.”
“Why are you blaming me? Should I give directions? You and Tain-Rok are doing it.”
“Yes, I told you this because I was worried that the person giving directions might get lost. Be honest. Lord Lagoa, did you know that Mount Petra was so wide?”
“This is my first time here, how do I know?”
“I didn’t know either. Even though the mountain is wide, it is too wide. However, there are no proper milestones. “It’s perfect for getting lost.”
“It’s late today, so take a break. “Let’s talk tomorrow in a bright place with a clear mind.”
“Even now, my mind is clear.”
When Fabian, who felt the burden of being a guide on his first journey, was biting his teeth, Luna Mylus spoke.
“No need to worry. Looking at the mountain slope, it looks like a dragon bent over a lair. The top where we are standing is near the head, and the torso extends beyond. The place where the tail is headed is connected to the Exo Island… … . “The valley of the skull, the passage to the unexplored land, is behind the head, in this direction.”
She pointed to the ridge on the left with her finger.
Everyone’s eyes followed her fingers to the ridge on the left.
indeed!
As if looking at the deep water of the sea, there was a black aura of death in the air.
That time in the Valley of the Skull.
About 90 mercenaries heavily armed with magic guns, swords, and shields entered the valley.
They are three mercenary groups that go to unexplored lands at the request of warlock Charles Manson.
The leader of the Helldog mercenary group, who was at the forefront, shouted lowly to his subordinates on the left and right.
“If you see a beast, don’t kill it, just chase it away! This means leave no trace! When you must fight, use a sword! “Do you understand?”
“yes!”
The mercenaries answered briefly and looked around with hawk-like eyes.
After that, the Viper mercenaries and the Slater mercenaries followed in an orderly manner.
The three mercenary groups cautiously passed through the Valley of the Skull with very nervous faces.
The wild beasts, surprised by the heavily armed humans, ran away without making a sound.
Perhaps because it was right after the wave, there were no monsters to be seen.
As if by heaven’s help, there were no collisions with beasts or monsters throughout the valley.
Immediately after passing through the valley, the three mercenary groups moved to their assigned positions.
Eventually, Helldog completed the ambush on the left, Viper in the center, and Slaughter mercenaries on the right.
The vice-leader of the Helldog mercenaries whispered to the leader.
“I don’t feel good.”
“why?”
“I received from the client 60 magic guns and 200 Exitiums.”
“What’s wrong with that?”
“That is equivalent to the power of the Southern Kingdom in the Abyss.”
“so?”
“Don’t you think we are overarmed to catch two sword masters?”
“Are you saying there is a Grand Master?”
“What if the Empire sent Archduke Knauf to investigate the Abyss?”
“Wow, if Archduke Knauf had moved, would the Abyss be this quiet? “There must be hundreds of knights accompanying the Archduke.”
“Well, that’s true, isn’t it?”
“Are we stupid? If you look closely, there are a lot of knights, so you can quietly withdraw. “If the other party is really Archduke Knauf, the client cannot say that it is a breach of contract.”
“I will only trust you, Captain.”
“Don’t trust me, look at the situation.”
Next, the Helldog mercenary leader sat down with his back against a nearby tree trunk.
The tension that had been tightly pulled loosened and fatigue set in.
He muttered to himself as if making a promise.
‘You have to look at the situation. ‘The situation.’
