302 Episode 209: Underground Passages and Past Heroes

In the mysterious underground passage, there was no lantern like Mount Baoji, and the light source was essential, so the leading Maria activated [Light Magic].

To add to that, this time, Maria led the formation and Sara led the formation. The other four are lined up appropriately in the middle.

Finally, the slope is over.

I walked for about 10 minutes and saw the end of the ramped passage. A little further, the ground and level passage await.

Nothing has happened in the aisle so far. With no enemies, no traps, and no paths to cross, this is the first change since we entered the passage.

I thought it would change if I entered a certain area of the lake, but that was not the case at all.

I thought there was something more, but there was nothing.

It's really just a passage, isn't it?

"Maybe that's right." my hidden passageway sensors didn't respond either..... "

Mio's right, it's really just aisle.

Of course, you don't need enemies or traps in just aisles. The absence of a split path increases the likelihood of a facility having a single point of arrival and purpose.

If you're going to make it, I'd be glad if all the questions could be solved with what's ahead of you.

It's a beautiful way to end the story, but I wonder if it's going to be so convenient?

"It's not surprising that it's convenient for you, Jin-kun..."

That's why!

It's the first phrase I've heard in a long time.

The most convenient development is that there are all the answers at the end of the concealed passage.

"Worst of all, it's just a pattern of vacated spaces."

There used to be something important, but now there's nothing left after retreating. It is the worst kind of idle gesture.

No, it's a passage across the shore. Isn't it worse for me?

"Sure..."

If it was not the structure of "entrance - aisle - destination", but the structure of "entrance - aisle - another entrance", nothing but despair awaits us.

In addition, "vacant rooms" and "just aisles" cannot react to my interesting object sensors, so it can be assumed that it is impossible in the first place.

Well, then, let's match the answers.

Finally, we arrive at a level passage with the ground, where we can see what's at the end of the passage.

As before, if it is a main road, there is a high chance that the answers will be matched here.

Maria pointed the light source at the end of the aisle.... Come on, what's there!?

"The wall, no, the door..."

It was far away. I thought it was a wall, but there was a door.

In a nutshell, the situation is a "soup".

Well, it looks like there was security.

"It's got something like a dial lock on it." Thirty-one digits? Are you out of your mind? "

It's not surprising that Mio pulled his face.

The heavy metal doors were also lined with 31 metal dials. In other words, we have to get them all together.

Naturally, there was no option to break down the door and proceed. I can, but I won't.

"... if you think about it, if you were lucky enough to manage it, you wouldn't have had any problems with Master."

Ah, about a thousandth of a centimeter, I'm sure we'll manage.

The number on the dial is between 0 and 9, so it looks like it should be 31 decimal places. If you say hexadecimal, you don't do it because it complicates the probability calculation.

"Jin-kun, what are you...?"

"That's a number digit." A hundred and eleven billion Kyoceras. Have you ever heard of it? "

"I know it sounds familiar somehow..." I remember you very well... "

"Actually, I remember everything." I've never used it since then. "

I wonder if Sakura has ever used the digit "ho" in her life.

I don't remember the details because I don't use it.

Master, what the hell did you use the digits for?

"Yeah, when I hit 30-digit passwords in the original world in one shot."

"Did you have a track record..."

Mio murmured in amazement and shock.

"Thirty digits in one shot, 31 digits is the worst. Ten attempts will unlock the lock."

"It's different from the probability theory I know..."

My friend East also said that if I got involved, the probability theory would stop working.

It's called an experiment, and it reminds me of being struck down 1,000 times by a coin toss. Yes, I think it was the 999th time. One time the back was missed with a shavings.

The final conclusion of the East should have been that 'probability theory is powerless against the reality in front of us'.

While chatting, he walked down the unshadowed aisle and arrived in front of a metal door.

"It looks like you've written a hint." I don't know what that means.... "

Mio is talking about Japanese carved letters on the wall next to the door.

It says, 'My most beloved thing.' This alone doesn't make any sense.

I don't know what the hint means, but the dial lock seems to be easier to solve than I thought.

"Do you think you'll be able to guess it in ten?"

"Instead of 10 times, I can win with one shot." With knowledge, luck seems unnecessary....... Mio, Sakura, do you recognize the current number of the dial lock? "

I pointed to the dial lock and asked Mio and Sakura.

The current number of dial locks is 3141592654589793237462643283279.

"That's a number we know, right?"... um, no. I don't know. "

"I'm sorry... I don't know either..."

Master, give me a tip! Tip!

"That's right.... the hint is here."

Mio asked me for a hint, so I thought for a moment and then pointed between the first three and one.

"What, 3.141592... yeah?" I feel like I'm familiar with it... "

"Ah, that's the circumferential rate...!"

"Sakura, correct! However, the beginning is correct, but some of them are wrong from the middle." Perhaps, if the wrong part is corrected and the circumference is correct, the door will open. "

It should be noted that this reasoning has one fatal flaw.

It means that if someone else had played with the dial lock and changed a lot from the original number before we got here, the current number would be useless.

At that time, I will try my best to give you 1 of 1000 liters.

Didn't Mio know you were talking to him?

"No, the last time I touched the circumference was more than eight years ago, right?" I won't be out any time soon. "

I see, is this the difference between active JK and his 20s?

"Don't tell me you're in your 20s..."

"I haven't been to school much, but is it okay if I'm on duty...?"

It's okay. I have to graduate or quit. No matter how old you are!

I'll go back to the story, but do you remember the 31-digit circumference?

"I just remembered a guy up to 31 digits long." I have a longer vocabulary, but I don't remember it, so it was perfectly safe. "

"Master's luck was used for that..."

Most of the longer word combinations have lost their narrative character. The 31-digit guy I remember is my favorite because the story is consistent until the end.

Mio said lucky, but someone who chose the circularity as the answer liked the 31-digit word combination with high narrative potential just like me, and there is also a good chance that they were using it.

In that case, I think it is more right to say 'I felt right' than to say 'I was lucky'.

I was able to predict the release number, so I unlocked the dial.

"First, change the 10th one from the left to the 4th one from the 3rd one."

I understand.

Following my instructions, Sara turns the metal dial.

I could have turned it, but the metal dial was so heavy that it was impossible to turn it with the skill of a typical merchant, so I couldn't turn it either (...) and (...) (...).

I didn't want to move beyond my role (role-play) even though I didn't have to, so I left it to Sara who set the idiot force from the beginning.

"Next, take the 19th one from 7 to 8."

I have heard that when a troublesome person closes the dial lock, they only move one from the correct value. Does the last person to close this dial lock smell annoying?

"Make the last 26 digits two to three. That should open it up."

"This is it, isn't it?" I'll turn it around. "

- Clicks -

The moment Sella turned the dial, it sounded unlocked.

"I'm glad I was right about what I expected." Now, what's ahead of us? "

"There was a lock, and there was no passageway to cross the other bank." I still have the possibility of an empty room..... "

Mio mouths the worst pattern again. But now neither is possible.

If the vacant room has been withdrawn, there's no reason to close the dial lock after all.

"If you ask me..." In other words, there is something important that is sure to remain! ”

"That's it, then, Sara." Open the door, please. "

"I understand." This is not a weight that can be moved by ordinary humans..... "

Sella opened the metal door.

It is a sliding door, but there is no such thing as a tire, and you need to move it with your arm strength alone. The handle for further movement is small, and it is not built to be moved by a large number of people.... is it harassing?

A 31-digit dial lock, a metal door that can't be moved by humans, and a passage that a giant who is proud of his power can't pass through. It's not like there's a trap, but there's tedious security inside.

However, on the other hand, I am concerned that I have not completely rejected it.

If it's like a padlock that uses a key, you have to have the key, but if it's a dial lock, anyone can try it. Besides, we had some tips.

The metal doors were heavy, but Sella's current status didn't exceed human limits. In other words, if you're proud of your superpower, you can move it. With the tools, it would be a little easier to move.

It's quite difficult, but it's not impossible. I get that impression from this security.

... I can feel the smell of the forest (palm) from the direction of security.

Just like the Braille on Konggang Treasure Mountain, it was the same thing that required the knowledge of other worlds to solve the trick. Moreover, both are subtly minor knowledge... "

The "reincarnation treasure" left by Hayashi-san was an interesting item, so I am looking forward to it.

Well, now it's time for a real match.

- Gogogogogogogogog

The door that Sara opened was a room about the size of a school gymnasium.

At the center of the room was a pedestal with red balls about the size of crystal balls. It was like a dungeon core, but unlike a dungeon core, the balls didn't glow.

Now, let's have an appraisal!

Region Core

Remarks: One of the subspecies of the dungeon core. It has the ability to manipulate the environment (including ecosystems) of the target area. Cannot create dungeon, no master setting, no resource collection function. If you're not a dungeon master, you can't recover resources, so you basically run out of items. This individual has used up a resource. The setting environment centers on the enormity, diversity, and adaptability of flora and fauna.

This explanation alone solved most of the questions that arose on this island.

There were a lot of unnatural things in the dungeon, so I thought it was not a dungeon, but I didn't think there was such a sub-species in the dungeon core...

Originally, the dungeon core had the ability to manipulate the environment within the dungeon.

Instead of only being able to manipulate the environment, this regional core is a specialized type of core that eliminates the constraints in the dungeon and affects a wide area on the ground.

And from the settings left in the core, I can only see the intention to keep the Giants alive.

Given the Giants' food situation, the enormity of flora and fauna is a must. By strengthening diversity and adaptability, we may have managed to balance ecosystems.

As a result, a mysterious ecology was created that coexisted with species that did not originally coexist on this island.

The ideal environment for the giants of the "all giant islands" was artificially created by Regional Core.... well, it's going to be ideal.

"As Master said, I've solved all your questions..."

"No, not all of them." I still have questions about this facility. ”

Speaking of which, that was a question, too.

I understand the mysterious ecology of this island and the purpose of the underground passage, but I still don't know who built this facility for what purpose. If you don't understand me, you won't be able to feel refreshed.

Speaking of mysteries, we've solved the trick, but the killer and motive are unknown. Also, the suspect is Mr. Hayashi.

"Jin-kun, there's something like a desk and a laptop over there..."

It's just the end of the line, isn't it?

The cherry shows a desk with a chair and a notebook on it.

There's no such thing as an unused notebook. There must be something important written about it. Let's go take a look.

Since ordinary people don't know what it is, it's essential to have a manual.

"That's true, too." In a way, this is a place for everyone. "

Mio's right, it seems most likely to be an instruction manual.

As I mentioned earlier, this room does not completely reject intruders, so even if you don't have any special power, you can enter if you want.

A dungeon core subspecies is nothing but a meaningless item if it doesn't have the ability to match my appraisal. It would be appropriate to have an instruction manual.

"Isn't it impossible for anyone?" Probably limited to aliens. And...... Master, are you the lucky one in the class? "

"Is there such a person besides Jin-kun...?"

At least, I don't think I can say I'm not there because of the precedent.

Thank you. I'm Jindo Nin, a very lucky person. Thank you.

It was not much distance, so I immediately arrived at the desk with my laptop.

Desks and chairs were simple wooden objects, and on top of them were college notebooks.

I thought it was a notebook that Hayashi-san, a person from another world, had brought from Japan, and the name of the manufacturer seemed to be "Hayashi"... apparently, it was made by himself. And the suspect was identified as the killer.

I knew Hayashi-san was involved.

In that way, did Mio realize it too?

“Yeah. No one else, right?”

"I was wondering if that was somehow the case..." with a drop in the circumferential rate..... "

Dora, I didn't understand......

I think it's tough on Dora, who doesn't have Japanese knowledge.

Well then, let's open it.

I opened my notebook while it was on the desk so that the cherries could see it.

Welcome, people with knowledge of other worlds. My name is Hayashi, the one who was born in Japan and moved to this land. "

When I saw the text written in Japanese, the first thing I thought...

"It's almost like the head of a sentence written on a slate."

Is it a temple?

The liturgical tablet was "Japanese Knowledge", but here it is "Knowledge of Other Worlds".

Circumferential ratio is not exclusive to Japan. To supplement, the Braille itself exists overseas, but since the reading method was unique to Japan, I definitely said "Japanese knowledge".

It doesn't matter, but Mr. Hayashi doesn't seem to consider the [lucky person in my class].

"In this notebook, I will keep as much information as possible about this facility and the central sphere. To begin with, there is no monetary value to this facility. The sphere is a valuable item, but I don't think it would be expensive to redeem it for cash. You are free to bring it back, but I advise you that it is likely to end in futility. If you're looking for treasure, I suggest you head to one of the mines on the island.”

As Mio predicted, it was an instruction manual for this facility and the region core.

Even so, Hayashi-san, aren't you kind to people who want treasure? From the beginning, I explained the monetary value of Regional Core, and I prepared a solid lead to Konggang Treasure Mountain...

To put it another way, Konggang Baoshan itself was named after someone who wanted to be a treasurer.

And it seems that you can take the Regional Core with you.

Sure, the Region Core is valuable, but it's worth nothing if it's used up. In the first place, there are few people who can correctly grasp the value of Regional Core.

I know the value of Regional Core, so don't hesitate to bring it back. Plus, I'm a Labyrinth Ruler (Dungeon Master), so I can revive my used Regional Core.

The sphere at the center of the facility is called Region Core. Regional Core has the ability to manipulate the ecosystems of its lands. The enormity of life on this giant island is the result of its operation. I should add that this is ineffective for people. Only the Giants were originally a giant race. ”

Hayashi-san, did you even know the name of Regional Core? But do you have it?

"If you ask this much, it will seem like something of value, but this regional core has been used up, and you can't use it again without supplying energy. I'm sorry, but I can't explain how to supply energy. Not because of my own knowledge, but because of the knowledge given by an acquaintance, and because I did not get permission to write it down from an acquaintance."

Hayashi-san, was there a labyrinth ruler (dungeon master) in my acquaintance?

Even if someone you know were a Labyrinth Ruler (Dungeon Master), it's only natural that you can't allow them to inadvertently spread the word about the resources.

I found the Region Core in Lake Giganto on Giant Island. At that time, Giant Island was home to giants and huge creatures. Considering that the energy of the Region Core we discovered was empty, someone must have used the Region Core to prepare the environment of the Giant Island. ”

Region Core is not something that moves automatically. If someone does not set it up, the function will not have any effect. I am sure that there is someone who has used it.

The only instruction given to Regional Core was Massive Flora and Fauna . Perhaps the purpose of some of them was to allow the Giants to live without hunger. But unfortunately, when I arrived on Giant Island, the Giants were starving and waiting for extinction. There was no way to make plants and animals huge and maintain the balance of the food chain. "

Apparently, the Giants were doomed by their first user, Poka.

... the Giants are a fragile race, contrary to their appearance.

"I saw the tragic appearance of the hungry giants and embarked on improving the situation. With the twists and turns, I discovered a region core that sank to the bottom of Lake Giganto, and I was able to improve the environment on Giant Island by supplying energy and giving additional instructions.”

I feel like I've been folded quite a bit around the "twist and turn."

I can't tell if I dared to hide it or if it just broke at the end because it will be long...

And the additional instruction is "strengthening diversity and adaptability".

Was the island's mysterious ecosystem meaningful for giant creatures to live on?

“This is a facility that I built to protect Regional Core. The Region Core is not fragile, but it is not a guarantee that it will never break. It takes some time for the region core to change its ecosystem.”

Now it looks like you can explain the purpose of this facility. Hayashi-san, be kind.

... by the way, how long does it take to change the ecosystem?

A: Depending on the size of the area, it may take up to 10 years for the entire area to completely change, depending on the size of the giant island.

Unexpectedly long... no, it's short enough for the ecosystem to change. Hmm, it's not an easy item to use, and it takes time to use it... It didn't seem to have any use for it.

'And in order to efficiently change the ecosystem, it was preferable to place it in the center of the land. This is the Giganto Lake. Perhaps those who used Regional Core earlier knew it, so they placed Regional Core on Lake Giganto. At that time, however, the current Lake Giganto was home to giant creatures. Even though it has not been broken, there is no guarantee that it will not be broken in the future. Even if it was placed in Lake Gigante, it was essential to protect it. "

We have not retreated, but it appears that this facility served a purpose in the distant past.

The Giants are still alive and well. "The other day, I was doomed..."

The above is an explanation of this facility and the Regional Core. Although it is short, I think it has solved many questions. On the contrary, I think my doubts about my existence have increased, but I'm not going to answer them, so it's bad. From here on, let me tell you a somewhat personal story. I don't have enough information to solve the growing questions, but it will help me to know who I am. ”

So, we just reached the end of the page. If you want to read more, you need to turn the page.

When I said that, there was hardly any information on who Mr. Hayashi was.

The patient is a transplantee (Japanese). I have the skills to appraise Regional Core. I knew the Labyrinth Ruler (Dungeon Master) temporarily. We can build this facility....... Is this about it?

I was concerned about Mr. Hayashi's private conversation and turned the page.

Let's start with the dial lock. I think you noticed, but I used the circumferential ratio for the number to enter this room. And as a hint, I wrote "my most beloved thing" on the side wall, but it probably didn't make sense. Let me explain that to you. "

I couldn't figure out the answer to that, but it was a mysterious hint.

Certainly, "the thing I love" will be included in the private story.

Let's conclude. I'm an alien with tits, and my favorite thing is a woman's tits. ”

"You know that the circumference is expressed as π (pie). Therefore, when I was in elementary school, of course, I was an alien with boobs from that time. Since then, my favorite number has been the circumference π. My name is Hayashi Satoshi. It's a natural-born tits alien with a 314 pie.”

It goes without saying that giants are enormous. Naturally, the boobs are big enough to be compared to humans. The ratio of the top to the underside is probably not much different from that of humans, but that's not what matters. If you're a giant, you can make your dreams come true from childhood, when you're buried in your boobs. In fact, when we fed the hungry giants, our dreams came true with a hug of gratitude. However, years of starvation had taken away tension and smoothness from the boobs of giant women. After all, it's not something I can forgive. That's why I solved the mystery of the gigantic flora and fauna and created a truly giant paradise. By the way, it was also a paradise for me. ”

………………………………

The notes were followed by fervent thoughts about her boobs. Sorry, it's a give-up on the first page.

I didn't expect to be beaten with a 100% pure sexuality, so to speak, in a somewhat private way.

Shit.

Oh, my God.

"It's terrible..."

This would be a bad idea.

At least, Hayashi-san... no, our evaluation of Hayashi has fallen to the ground.

"To be honest, Mr. Hayashi's image was an intelligent glasses." Because writing is rational, and you need to be educated in the mysteries that are scattered. "

"Oh, that's right (...)"

I agree with Mio's words in the past.

When I read the second half of this notebook, the image suddenly turned into a perverted pair of glasses.

Yeah, that's right.

I agree with Mio's words in their current form.

"I admit the merit is great, but the motivation is too harsh.... yeah? Why did you become a Giant in the [Reincarnation Treasure] even though your dreams are solo?”

If you become a Titan yourself, you can't at least be buried.

Something flashes like "Pikon" and I wind my notebook to the last page.

There, a sentence was written with a slightly different line thickness. This is the only thing that seems to have been added later.

"I decided to live to the end on this island that fulfilled my dream. Now that we have manipulated the ecosystem, we will no longer be able to enter this facility. Finally, there are some hidden treasures on this island that I have gained from my journey so far. All of them are only known to the Japanese, so if you are interested, you should try to find them."

Living to the end would mean living together as a giant clan. I don't know why, but the forest seems to have become a giant of its own accord.

If you become a Giant, you will not be able to enter this facility without proceeding through the underground passage. As for the chronological order, I would add to the notebook that the ecosystem that makes this facility changes, and leave a message on Mount Vajra, which becomes a giant tribe, in "Treasure of Reincarnation".

Then, it was confirmed that there were other treasures on this island besides the "Reincarnation Treasure". I'm really looking forward to it.

Now that we've done our part, we've decided to retrieve the Region Core and leave the facility behind.

I left my laptop here. I don't have a reason to take it with me, and I don't want to have it.

So, what do we do with the dial lock?

"There's nothing inside, so why don't you just leave it open?" It's hard to open and it's sad to see the sky inside, isn't it? If it was open from the beginning, I could tell at a glance that we were slower. "

The treasure chest was decided to be the first one. The treasure chest that was opened from the beginning was empty.

Leave the metal door open and start walking through the underground passageway. In addition, there was only one door in this room, and there was no passage across the bank.

Even though there was a lot of important information, you took it all with you in the last one.

That's right, it's too impactful at the end, isn't it?

It was us who still had the forest impact.

There were achievements, and I was able to have fun in the future, but if I was asked what impressed me, I had no choice but to say "the nature of the forest".

"Sera and the others knew about it, didn't they...?"

I wonder how Sella and Maria, who had already been spoiled, felt when they watched us explore...

"Yes, I knew that." It was a donkey pull on the boulder. "

"I don't have any particular impressions because it is within my personal hobbies and preferences."

I can't help but think of the big tits (cela) pulling out. And Maria was tolerant of sexuality.... no, I'm just not interested?

In addition, Dora was not good for education, so she blindfolded herself as soon as she entered the boob page. And when I realized it, I was sleeping, so I was carrying it on my back.

I walked for about 15 minutes, chatting as I was going, and finally arrived on the ground.

Ah, welcome back!

Exiting the underground passage, just as the maple was putting materials in the item box.

The other five were probably in the process of collecting the materials.

"Did you find anything that you could sell?"

"Unfortunately, there was nothing to sell."

"That's right." That was a shame. "

There is no point in saying it, so I will not explain the regional core to Maple.

I don't think you should take anything from Giant Island without the permission of the Giant tribe, but the forest-related items are left by the Japanese to the Japanese, so it is judged that it is okay.

So, did the materials get together?

Yeah! I've collected quite a lot!

When I checked the item box, it was filled with nearly 90% of the capacity.

It's only been about an hour, and I'm pretty sure it was full without waiting for the limit of two hours.

You've collected so much in such a short time.

"I've done my best, and I've worked hard to make sure that everyone is useful to Jin-san!"

Five little-known giants and girls also seemed to have a good sensitivity max, as a matter of course.

"I see. Now that I've fulfilled my purpose, can you call those five?"

Yeah! Got it!

An energetic runaway koji mouths one prediction at a time, looking at his well-adjusted chest.

"Hayashi, who became a giant, must have spent the rest of his life on this giant island." If Hayashi got married on this island, he would definitely have big boobs. And, as far as I know, the biggest tits in the Giants today are mackerel.... maybe the maple is the descendant of the forest. "

It's a small village, and no matter who inherits the blood of the forest, it's not strange.

However, reincarnation appears in the descendants of the transferors, and it feels causal to be involved in the relics along with other transferors.

"I don't want to be told that with a serious expression while I look at the girl's chest..."

I don't think so.
