Sinking deeper and deeper? The deepest part of the forest
The magic stone that flashed with a soft white light in front of him turned out to be the fragment that fell from the single horn of the unicorn fairy beast [Elotimus]? The shape of the stone is an irregular cone, indeed like the sharp horns that a unicorn accidentally bumps and falls. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The unicorn's horns are mutilated and can naturally grow back, not to mention the [Elotimus] that has become an elf, but its stump remains forever. The most symbolic part of such a holy beast's body is naturally a random drop, and it can become the top magic stone.
This is the treasure that people flock to and dream of, and the treasure for which countless explorers have given their lives, [The Stump of Elotimus].
The origin alone is already worth a fortune.
But it's such a treasure, and now I've picked it up casually and easily?
Specifically, I'm just sitting back and enjoying it.
Being able to grow and mutate into this volume, and collect so many glitters.
This slime has survived for at least 70 years, and if this [Stump of Elotimus] is really to be found by one person, it will naturally have to be this slime-kun who has put the most effort into it for more than ten decades.
And the final result of decades of this resourceful Slime-kun was robbed by us, and finally came into our hands in such a dramatic form.
My companions were also dumbfounded at this achievement, and at first we all had the idea that we might be able to find this treasure by chance, but it was a bit overwhelming when this dream came true.
But I quickly calmed down
Compared to the luck of being able to cross through a billion creatures and become a demon king.
It's just a matter of picking up a philosopher's stone left behind by an elf.
I'm more than lucky.
The title of the book should be,
Start living in a different world today as the Emperor of Europe?
[Alan-kun, I said that you should be more optimistic about being a man, right?] ]
Cynthia Khao has as much sparkle in her eyes now as she did when she tasted the pudding.
[This is what is left of Lord Elotimus?!! ]
Windsor Nozomi looked even more frightened, after all, the relics of the priest's object of faith were in front of him.
[Show me, hurry up.] ]
Charlotte Tilie, who was not tall enough, was like a curious child, wanting to take a closer look at the treasure, and finally snatched it from my hand after standing on tiptoe.
[Wow, there seems to be a very warm power in my hand that is constantly being passed to me.] Charlotte Tilly, like a child, excitedly expresses her feelings, and as long as she holds it in her hand, she feels like she is receiving healing magic all the time.
[I want to ...... too Try. ]
Naturally, the most interested in [Elotimus's stump] is Windsor Nozomi, and her current mood is probably torn between awe and curiosity, after all, [Elotimus] can be said to be the object of worship of the priest, a part of the entity of this creature that only exists in legends, and now it is within her reach, which is a dream that countless priests from ancient times to the present cannot realize.
[Please Lord [Elotimus] must bless the Terrans, I pray to you sincerely.] After receiving it from Charlotte Tilie, she put the Philosopher's Stone in her palms and began to pray......
What a piousness.
[But Ai, do you want to try it?] It's very comfortable to hold in your hand. ]
Windsor Nozomi handed the stump of Elotimus to Cynthia Koai.
Cynthia Khao felt it in her hand, and then carefully probed the shape of the philosopher's stone.
[It's amazing.] ]
She said in amazement.
Compared with ordinary people, they seem to be more indifferent to the treasures they have in their hands.
The only real treasure for her is pudding, right?
After a round of passing, finally [the stump of Elotimus] returned to my hands.
I put it in a four-dimensional backpack.
At this point, all our purpose of entering this forest has been accomplished.
Although I don't know where we walked into this forest, we still have some minotaur figures, at least at this moment, we are still in the shallow area.
[Let's go back, there is a mark I left in front of me, and you should be able to walk back smoothly.] ]
It's already afternoon, and if you don't leave quickly, it will be very troublesome if it gets dark, and this forest is not suitable for long.
So we changed the route we had taken and returned, which should have been a foolproof thing.
[Strange, it seems that a tree was marked near here just now, why can't you find it?] ]
I looked around, but couldn't find the tree I had marked last.
It's better to say that it's obviously going back the same way, but it seems to have come to a strange place, could it be that you are going in the wrong direction?
[Idiot!] What if I get lost!? ]
Charlotte Tilly began to blame.
[What's the panic, isn't it just that the mark is gone?] As long as you know the direction, you can go out anyway. ]
I casually walked to the side of a towering ancient tree on a high ground.
After observing the epidermis and crown of this tree for a long time.
I raised my left hand and pointed into the distance, making a decisive statement.
[This side is east, so it's absolutely fine as long as you go in this direction.] ]
They all looked at me with skeptical expressions.
[How do you judge?] ]
Windsor Nozomi asked curiously.
[If it's in a forest, it's actually easy to discern the direction, for example, this tree, is its bark obviously polarized?] ]
They all came to observe the tree, whose bark was smoother on one side and rougher on the other.
[The bark of the tree is naturally smoother in the southerly direction, while the bark in the northerner direction is relatively rougher, so you can roughly distinguish the north-south direction.] ]
They looked at me with all the reason.
[Looking at the head of the tree, the plants all have a certain positive direction, the branches and leaves of the tree to the south are more dense, spreading outward like a cone, and the branches of the tree in the north direction are relatively sparse, and you can see the obvious difference.] ]
[Based on these two points, the general direction given to me by this tree is the same as this direction, so judging from this point, the east side is roughly this direction, as long as you go to the southeast, you will definitely be able to leave this forest, it doesn't matter if you are vague.] ]
I concluded.
[Hmph, you're pretty reliable at this time.] ]
was appreciated by the tsundere Tilie, which was really hard-won.
[Allen-kun is really well-informed.] ]
Windsor Nozomi couldn't help but praise.
[Oh, I've seen it.] ]
Cynthia Khao looked at the tree with a look of sudden realization.
[Then hurry up, it's been a long time.] ]
So we hurried on the road again.
But even if you discern the direction, the forest still seems to be bottomless.
I feel like I've walked more than I came,
Is it a psychological effect? Maybe it's a little different from when you came.
So it's a longer way to go, as long as you go in the right direction, there will be no problem.
There was talk and laughter along the way, and I didn't pay much attention to it.
But all of a sudden, I realized that something was wrong.
Finally realized something very serious.
I stopped in horror and stood still, bewildered.
[What's wrong with you?] Suddenly stunned? ]
Charlotte Tilly looked at me and felt a little uneasy.
[Brave Lord?] Allen-kun? ]
Windsor Nozomi couldn't help but worry about me.
[Don't you think ......]
[Obviously we have been walking in the direction of the forest for so long......]
[But why...... Right now. ]
[I haven't seen the Minotaur since just now?] ]
I spoke this fact in a somewhat trembling voice.
I don't know when, but I haven't seen a minotaur, a symbol of our stay in this shallow forest.
[That's true!] No way? Are we really lost in this forest? ……]
After hearing this, Windsor Nozomi also began to become uneasy.
[Big Fool!] What now? ]
Charlotte Tilly looked around helplessly and uneasily, looking like a child who took ghost stories seriously.
[But according to Allen-kun's judgment, there should be no problem with the direction?] ]
Cynthia Coai still looks calm.
Yes, judging by common sense, there is absolutely no problem with direction, but this is a different world, and the common sense of this world may not be useful.
[Let's stop moving around just yet, just sit there and take a break.] ]
I calmed down, as a demon king, it's a big deal, if I'm really lost in this forest, it's a big deal, I can just turn back into the prototype and fly into the air, I don't need to be so self-conscious? After playing at home for a long time, sometimes I forget my identity as a demon king.
So I found a flat ground where the light looked wider and sat down.
They all sat down on the floor and rested, calming down for a while, and thankfully I found a team of teammates who were calmer and didn't get cranky in fear.
Often the precursor to a team's self-destruction is when disagreements arise.
I found a straight branch, combed it and buried it in the earth, and placed a stone on top of its shadow.
Ten minutes later, I found another stone and placed the top of the offset shadow, connecting the positions of the two stones in a straight line.
The direction represented by this straight line is east-west, and the direction perpendicular to this straight line is north-south, where the straight line points to the south towards one end of the sun and the opposite direction is north.
With this in mind, I repositioned where the direction to the east should be.
It is amazing that no matter how far we have deviated from the original course, we should not be so outrageous.
Because in the direction we were going to go, the answer was quite the opposite.
Other words...... We thought we were going to the east, but we were actually walking towards the opposite west, walking completely unwittingly towards the depths of the forest where no one was said to have survived. [If nothing else, we should have fallen under some kind of disorienting magic.] ]
I said to them.
[Charlotte, do you have a way to crack this magic?] ]
[I'll give it a try.] ]
Charlotte Tiri has an unknown magical rune in her hand, which is constantly changing. After a long time, she shook her head.
[It's true that the magical stance around here is different, but I don't have any way to crack it.] ]
She shook her head and said.
[Well, although it's a bit late to ask, did any of you bring a compass?] ]
In the final analysis, the easiest and most intuitive way to find direction in the field is to use a compass.
It's better to say that an explorer who goes to an unknown territory without a compass must be a fool.
Unfortunately, I'm such a stupid person.
I did prepare a lot of things after I arrived in the other world, but because of my own ability, I couldn't notice such blind spots.
Well, even if you use any excuse to excuse stupidity, you still blame me for being stupid.
Although the knowledge of direction is no longer useful at all, if you can observe when the direction changes, you may be able to get out of this labyrinth.
I can only hope for them.
[Windsor, you must have brought someone as attentive as you, right?] ]
I asked, expectantly.
[No, I didn't think of it either......]
But she immediately interrupted my luck.
After all, if she had brought it, she would have given it to me a long time ago.
[What about Charlotte?] What should you do when you stupid person goes out without a compass? ]
I can only hope that Charlotte Tilly, this Lori may have brought it and forgotten to bring it herself.
If this kind of thing were for her, it must be reasonable and possible.
[What!] So I'm really sorry that I don't even have a compass when I go out! ]
Thinking about whether or not there is a compass in a room like her loli is a problem in itself......
Although as an otaku, there is nothing in my room that is so out of place in my life.
I looked at Cynthia Khao again and shook my head helplessly.
[Windsor, did you bring sewing tools?]
I asked her a question.
[Well, I've got this with me.] ]
[Then give me an iron needle for sewing.] ]
I took the needle she had given me, and then my mind moved.
A small magnet appeared on my hand, which I had accidentally obtained, and it happened to be in the four-dimensional backpack.
I found a small wooden block and put it into a sheet, and then I took out my water bag, and the props were ready.
If you ask me what I'm going to do, yes, since I don't have a compass, I'll make one.
After rubbing the iron needle on the magnet more than two dozen times, I asked Charlotte Tilie.
[Can you use your magic to create a flame, just a small wisp without being too exaggerated.] ]
Charlotte Tilly looked at me blankly, and with a stroke of her magic wand, the fallen leaves around me suddenly burst into flames.
For her, creating a flame is something that doesn't even need to be chanted.
I roasted the needle in the fire for a while, waited until the flame on the fallen leaves was extinguished, and then immediately placed the needle in the water taken out of the water bag to cool.
Draw a small groove in the middle of the wood chip and insert the iron needle into the groove.
Then he dug a small pit in the ground for the prototype, filled it with water, and threw the pieces of wood stuck with iron needles into the small pit containing water.
A simple compass is all the way!
They all gathered around to look at the compass that was swirling in the small puddle, and as long as the compass stabilized, there would be no problem in marking the coordinates of the north and south poles.
It's just that how to carry it on your body is a problem, and the problem of the container will be solved later, and I want to know whether this homemade compass is accurate or not.
I marked the corner of the puddle with the south coordinates I had just obtained from the sun's position, and after some time, one end of the iron needle fluttering on the wood chips pointed to one side of the south coordinates I had marked.
It's just that, although it's roughly the same, it seems to be a bit off from the coordinates I set?
Could it be that I made a calculation mistake before?
[You're this thing, are you allowed?] ]
Charlotte Tilly looked at the improvised compass floating in the small puddle with a look of disbelief.
[Don't believe me?] If I paddle it in another direction, it will turn back to that position. ]
I swiped my finger and removed it from its original position.
A few more minutes passed.
This simplified version of the compass is still again, but this time it is in its position...... It seems to be in a different position from before.
However, the southern coordinates marked by me are still in a relatively close position.
[Hmm...... Anyway, it's probably near the pointer to the south. ]
[Huhaha, what the hell, I feel far behind.] ]
Cynthia Coai pulled a compass from her body and placed it next to the puddle.
In contrast, the southern coordinates I marked are indeed a little different, and then the self-made compass that is a little different from this southern coordinate points to a wrong and outrageous position.
[Strange, is it because there is not enough time to roast or is there a problem with cooling?] Isn't it okay to use warm water to cool down? ]
After all, it's the first time I did it, and although it refers to the process, it's a mess to do.
It should be saved.
…………
………
Looking at Cynthia Coai's compass next to her, I didn't think much more at this point.
Now that there's a ready-made one, what the hell am I thinking?
Why is there a ready-made one?
Or something?
[Fog grass!] You wouldn't have taken out a compass sooner! ]
I almost broke down and said to Cynthia Khoai.
This compass that suddenly appeared in front of me seemed to be mocking me for being an SB.
[Hmph, who let you, I asked both Nozomi and Tiri, but when it was my turn to describe, I shook my head helplessly, it's really unpleasant Alan Jun.] ]
Instead, she blamed me in a nutshell.
[Isn't it good to take it out from the time you're ready to leave?!] ]
[If I had taken it out at the beginning, wouldn't there be no cold knowledge sharing session for Allen-kun?] I'm looking for you, Alan-kun. ]
[That's really bothering you......]
My heart is really full of helplessness at this moment......
[Actually, my sister handed me over before I left, she said that we are both little fools, and we may get lost when we go out of the door, so let me take it with me for the sake of insurance, and now I think about it, my sister is really like a god.] ]
She said admiringly.
[Wait, so you didn't actually carry it with you but forgot you had a compass?] ]
[How...... How can it be? ]
She said to me as if with an expression that you know how do you know.
I really can't do anything about this woman......
[Well, since we have a compass, we might as well try to get out of this forest again?] ]
Windsor Nozomi suggested that it was getting twilight, and that there was not much time left.
[Tili, you hold this compass, and as soon as the pointer changes, you immediately observe your surroundings for anything unusual.] ]
[Okay.] ]
Charlotte Tilly walked to the front of the line with the compass.
We continue to follow the direction of the compass in the direction of absolute precision, and if there is no way to crack the magic, we will be helpless.
After walking some distance, Charlotte Tilly suddenly stopped and looked around.
But there was still nothing strange around, and the compass and pointer in Charlotte Tiley's hand had changed dramatically.
[No, it doesn't.] I still can't capture the structure and traces of this magic circle, this is too clever if it is a magic circle, and there is no way to do it at my current level. ]
Although Charlotte Tilly is already a prominent magician among her peers, after all, she is only a beginner-level magician, and she is naturally helpless against this magical labyrinth that has killed many people, which I have long expected.
[What to do?] ]
Windsor Nozomi asked me uneasily.
[Do your best, obey the fate of heaven, why don't we go all the way to the end of this forest labyrinth?] ]
I said as if I didn't care.
[What's the idea?] Have you already given up!? ]
Charlotte Tilly reproached me.
[No, the Papal States are still undergoing continuous manual maintenance in the shallow area of this forest, and I have never heard anyone say that there is no return after entering the shallow area of this forest, and it is obvious that it is unreasonable for us to step into this trap labyrinth by following the rules of this forest practice.] ]
I shook my head and said.
[So why?] Could it be said? ]
Charlotte Tilly seemed to understand something.
Although she is said to be stupid, she is actually a smart person in terms of reflexes.
[That's right, if we want to say why we have fallen to this point, it is of course that the owner of this forest is inviting us to enter the depths of this forest, so we are helpless to wander in this labyrinth.] ]
[If anything, there is a reason, and the reason is that we have found this stone.] ]
As soon as my mind moved, the stump of Elotimus appeared in my hand, if I had learned anything from today, and what experience I had learned.
That is what is priceless, and it must be accompanied by life-threatening disasters, especially things that are obtained for no reason.
[Well said.] ]
There seemed to be a crisp applause from the depths of the forest.
The trees are constantly changing and disappearing.
Finally, a blinding light filled the entire space.
By the time I opened my eyes again, the landscape had changed.
It was as if we had arrived at a place like a fairyland on earth.
There are maple trees everywhere, and if you want to say that maple trees can think of such a poem, it is probably this poem.
Parking sits in love with the maple forest in the evening, and the frost leaves are red in February.
But the maple leaves of this one are all light blue.
It is as if there is magic between the veins of the leaves, the veins of the leaves are shining with white light and the leaves are emitting a light blue light, which has a sense of beauty that turns from light to light.
And it was still twilight daytime, and it was already a starry night after coming here.
There is a small Tan in the middle of the forest, Tan Shui reflects the brilliant starry sky, and also reflects the light blue maple tree, graceful figure.
If you want to say that the beauty here is better than heaven, better than Eden, heaven and Eden, there is no such quietness, there is no deep and lonely peace.
The words I can think of can only be described as the isolated peach blossom paradise.
And compared to these, there is a girl with a single horn on her head in front of her.
Riding a 2-meter-tall beast with dark purple hair, it looks like a giant horse, but it also has a single horn on its head.
The girl was clapping her hands to greet me, and she should have been the owner of the voice just now
And that's what everyone is undoubtedly looking for.
In the deepest part of the forest, the sacred place where Elotimus once lived.
