Chapter 146: Ruins Murals and Ninjas_Elysion Online ~The Dragonewt and The Summoner~

Chapter 146: Ruins Murals and Ninjas<hr>

 The fifth day of the event. After the usual production activities, I explored theke with Ion, Chess, Puyosuke and Seguro in the morning, but nothing came of it.

 I knew there was one on the floating ind, but not in theke at the same location...so there must be a te at the Berserk King Kong base area and maybe another one.

 I started exploring the forest in the afternoon. The members are Lily, Setia, Gray, Liqueur and Darley. Then Lily says she''ll take the controls.

 "Please be considerate of Lily-oneesama''s feelings. Takuto-sama"

 Gunu...my escape route is blocked...

 When I get on the Darley, the usual outbursts begin.

 I now know what it''s like to be a rodeoer...but I couldn''t go on like this.

 "Lily, stop!"

 "Wa, Wait a bit longer!"

 It''s not good. I squeezed Lily''s hand gently from behind and slowly loosened the reins. And then Darley calms down.

 "Ah..."

 "When you want to calm him down, don''t pull too hard on the reins. If you pull too hard on the reins, Darley will suffer. Now, tell him to move forward"

 "Y...Yes"

 When Lily gives themand to go forward, she grips the reins tightly. This is the cause. I support her and try not to pull too hard on the reins.

 Then Darley runs as usual.

 "Waa!"

 Lily seems to be feeling good.

 "Remember what this feels like, okay? When I pull hard on the reins, it''s when I want to make a sudden change of direction or when I want him to stop because it''s dangerous. This is about right for normal situations"

 "Yes! Thank you! Takuto"

 After that, Lily''s control was stable even without my help. She even knocked out the Wolfman with ease while riding Darley.

 "I''m d that Lily-oneesama is no longer a marvel...but I''m not satisfied"

 What''s wrong with you, Setia...it''s good that she can now control it properly.

 Once again, I headed for the next base area. I have a pretty good idea of where the base area is.

 We found the first base area by heading south from the north. Then there are two base areas, east and west. That left only the south.

 But what we found on our way south was not a base area.

 "Are these...ruins? Setia, is there poison?"

 "Yes"

 So it''s not the base area after all...but it looks like there is a te. I''ll contact Ruin-san for the time being.

 "I''m sorry to bother you. I found a ruin different from the base area south of the first base area"

 Well, it''s also in the south. But isn''t it the base area?

 "ording to Setia, there is poison here. Maybe it''s different"

 I see. It''s too far for us to go, so you''ll have to explore. I''ll let Mel and the others know

 "Please"

 That''s it. Now that I have permission, let''s explore.

 Liqueur and Darley were reced by Ion and Koihi. Now, let''s explore the ruins.

 The ruins were full of traps. There were many arrows and spearsing out of pits and walls. Well, it''s easy because Koihi can sense them.

 And then there were monsters. Here it is!

 Ghost Lv4

 Summon Monster Subjugation Target Active

 This is the ghost I saw in the wilderness. He''s one of the guys who can possess you, so Setia and I killed him with our magic bullets.

 That''s why Setia and I were very active in the ruins. Info flows in the middle of the battle.

 Your staffs level has reached 20. You have acquired the martial arts Trident Magic and Shift Change

 Hmm. I took the opportunity to use them. The first is Trident Magic. It''s like shooting magic bullets at up to three enemies. You can also shoot three shots at one body. It''s a useful technique.

 But what''s more useful is Shift Change. Shift Change is a technique that allows you to switch the location of your party members. For example, if I''m being targeted by an enemy, I can switch ces with Lily and let her do the fighting.

 There are many other strategies you can use. For example, I could switch the biting Gray and Puyosuke, or Hiyori and Kurogane.

 The problem is that you can only switch one pair at a time. And it looks like this technique can only be used once per battle. I don''t think they''re going to let us switch around all the time.

 I searched safely while using Light and apparently reached the end point. It was a big hall.

 Then something appears.

 Phantom?

 ? ? ?

 So there''s a boss after all.

 It means the same as a ghost, but this one was more like a wraith. And this one had a scythe for a weapon. It seems to be a pre-evolution of the Grim Reaper.

 Now, what to do...a ghost boss is unexpected.

 While I was thinking about this, the Phantom possessed Lily. Lily, controlled by the Phantom, attacked Ion...I guess it targeted the wrong person.

 As a result, Lily is beaten up by Ion as usual. Phantom is so merciless that it takes over Ion and targets me this time.

 As a result, the Phantom leaves Ion. No, because it''s no different from our usual training. In fact, it''s much weaker than the training. It''s only natural, though, because the Phantom does not move because of Ions idea.

 And I''ll be next. This guy...he''s so stupid. You have a natural enemy in this ce.

 "Sorry, Koihi. Can you help me with blood awakening?"

 "Ye, Yes! Coming! Blood awakening!"

 Koihi wears a silver-white aura and casts spells.

 "I will purge you of all your sins and impurities"

 The Phantom, seeing the shining sword, rushes away, but it''s toote.

 "sh!"

 Koihi closes the gap in an instant and the Phantom is cut in two. And thenes the info. Eh? A blow? Maybe Koihi''s blood awakening is even worse than I thought.

 You have cleared the Ancient Ruins. You have earned 3 skill points

 Koihis Katana level has reached 10. She has acquired the martial art Nukiuchi

 I got skill points! Now my remaining skill points are 39pt.

 And the Nukiuchi that Koihi learned is one of the arts of sword drawing. It''s a technique that uses the drawing of a Katana and attacking in the same stroke.

 The reason why there are few skill points...is it because the boss was weak? I guess it''s because this is not the base area after all. Then what is this ce?

 ""Te, Terrible experience...""

 Well, I''m sorry about the two who got possessed.

 Now, I''m going to dismantle the raged Phantom. Here are the results.

 Piece of cloth: Rarity 3 Material Item Quality E

 An ordinary piece of cloth. mmable.

 Dark-based Stone: Rarity 3 Material Item Quality E

 A stone with a dark attribute. Used as a material for weapons and magic stones.

 I''m not sure what a piece of cloth is for. What would you use a piece of cloth the size of a handkerchief for? Okay, I''ll give it to Mew-san.

 More importantly, I got a dark-based stone! This is something to look forward to.

 I beat it without a second thought, but thinking about it, if it wasn''t for Koihi, I''d be stuck.

 I looked around to see if I could find the te I was looking for and found a mural on the wall and a ce where the te would have been. I''m pretty sure it''s there because of the writing and the indentations.

 The mural looks like an ancient Egyptian mural. It depicts a battle that once took ce in its entirety.

 First, an iron shipes from the sky. After that, a huge female being astride a dragon and using small demons invades the ind.

 The ind is poisoned and finally the dragon and the giant woman attack the iron ship.

 Then Robot appears and Robot, the dragon and the giant woman fight and Robot wins.

 The poisoned people of the ind praised the Robot until its death.

 It''s a rough story, but it looks like this.

 I immediately contacted Ruin-san throughmunication.

 "I''ve conquered the ruins. I found the original mural and te there"

 That''s a great report. Can you send me a scrap of the mural? How was the text?

 "Coming from the sky is the first word. The next word is unknown, followed by The one that brought Disaster and thest is Fight with it and destroy it"

 So from the text, the being from the sky and thest boss fought and the being from the sky won

 "It seems so. The mural shows the scene. There''s a mural of a robot and a demon-like creature of the same size fighting"

 I see. That ce is surely a ce to tell the strategy even without the hints on the te. Was there a boss?

 "There was, but it was weak. It was a phantom, but it was a one-hit wonder with Koihi"

 I''m sure it''s easy to conquer a ghost with a shinto priest. I''ve heard that purification magic is only for use against undead

 Hou. Is there such magic? It would be easier with it.

 Anyway, letting Last Boss and Robot fight is the strategy for this event, so there is no doubt. I''m convinced that this is a monster-like setting for Robot

 Certainly, if you can fight against thest boss and win, you can''t exin its strength.

 This information...I''ll keep it for you. It won''t be a bad thing if you spread it. There are always people who get ahead of themselves

 "Understood. If the event moves, it will be around thest day, right? I''m going to take a picture of this ce and then go back there"

 All right. Let''s gather our trusted people and have a strategy meeting

 I take a screenshot and send it to Ruin-san. I wish I could return with Return, but since I came back here, I decided to return Lily and Ion, summon Liqueur and the others and return.

 We decided to hold a strategy meeting at night, so I logged out after arriving.

 At night, we gathered together: myself, Ruin-san and the other producers, Mel and the others on my rmendation, Chiffon and the others, Rook and the other summoners, as well as Tristan and a few beastmasters on Raiden''s rmendation.

 First, Ruin-san nailed down that what we were going to talk about would not be shared with the bulletin board or anyone else.

 Then I start talking...but before I do, I speak to the unreachable.

 "I''m not impressed with your eavesdropping...you can either show yourself or be attacked by my summoned beasts, whichever you prefer"

 When I said that, they hurriedly showed themselves, which is a party of five ninjas.

 "Wa, Wait! We''re not suspicious"

 "How can you say that when you''re trying to eavesdrop?"

 I''ve already told Ruin-san about them in advance. I didn''t know that they were ninjas, though.

 "Nugu...I apologize for that! It''s just that your movements have been suspicious and I thought I''d hear some good news"

 "What should we do? Ruin-san"

 "Talking on the board is a problem and the ninjas are an asset. Let''s allow them to join the meeting"

 "Oh! I''m grateful! Well be helpful! Ah, I call myself Hokage"

 The other members call themselves Kazekage, Mizukage, Tsuchikage and Raikage. It''s a famous anime story. But of course, a question arises.

 "Are you okay? Ruin-san?"

 "I''m fine. You know what would happen if you told the bulletin board or those guys over there, don''t you?"

 I''m afraid of Ruin-san.

 "Of course. It''s strictly forbidden for everyone, degozaru. If we do, we will be cklisted by an producer and that we will be prepared to have our names exposed on the bulletin board"

 We won''t

 "Oh? I never said I would do that"

 That''s a lie! She was definitely going to do it! That''s what everyone in the room must have thought.

 "But how did you manage to break our Sign Istion?"

 "You touched the hard thread when you came here, didn''t you? My Giant Spider has Thread Detection. It was obvious"

 "What!? I didn''t realize it also served as a trap to detect intruders...but even though you knew we wereing, you couldn''t tell exactly where"

 Then Konoha, Sabik and Route appear from the trees behind them.

 Hii!?

 "Snakes are heat-sensitive. So it''s no use trying to mask your presence. My owl also has the Sign Istion skill. I had them watch you the whole time"

 "I, It was aplete defeat..."

 The bad luck of these guys is that they came while Aranea was busy making threads.

 Then the meeting began once again.<hr>
