32. Proslogion 1
The servant Barzderman had no name. As soon as she became a servant of the goddess who tortures her, she said she would abandon her name. All they have now is the name of the city.
At the same time, it was the name of the family that ruled the city. They said they were on their way to a family palace built in Proslogion to compete for the ultimate tribute.
Daughters had to solve a lot of problems with their own power, but they needed their underlings to take care of them. Abduction, assassination, torture, and other things were routine contests.
“Barca, we set off with a hundred men when we set out. We were attacked in the middle, leaving only ten of us. Will you help us in this contest?”
The servant asked me with a gentle anticipation. However, the captain considers it appropriate to take them into unholy ground. It was impossible to work with Barca but only with them.
[Forget all thoughts about the contest. I will reward you enough for your loyalty to us. Our sisters will take part in the contest instead of your daughters.]
“Uh, give the order at any time! Loyalty is why I exist.”
She trembles. Then Tyrant told the captain.
[Captain, Khan just decrypted every language in the world from Salamander’s brain. Now that you’ve also been enrolled in the automated translation program, all the conversations you use to foster them will now be translated into the language of the world.]
“For regular knights, I’ll leave the conversation to Tyrant. Make sure there are no misunderstandings.”
[Copy that, Captain.]
The captain finishes his conversation with Tyrant and speaks to Barsdeman in his native language.
“Wake the rest of the elves and arm them.”
“Yes! Goddess knights!”
Barsdeman cheers and takes out his caged people. The Hulbert Elves were initially bewildered, but they quickly regained consciousness at Barsdeman’s command. Seeing them standing in front of your eyes in their myth called Barca, their hearts seemed to fall.
They search the Salamander’s room, following the captain’s orders, and find their luggage and weapons. The black metal made of Magma was ruffled as if it had been beaten by a careless blacksmith.
Nevertheless, there were other sharpnesses and defensive forces on the ground. And the servant found a sign that proved her identity.
“Those damn Adrey towns must be trying to capture us. I will retaliate.”
The servant girl came back, sharpening her teeth. She said they were abducted by lava salamanders prepared by the rival family Adrey on their way to participate in the contest. It was a secret route, but the hidden spies in the family revealed their roots, and the kidnappers were waiting for them.
“We will participate in the competition. Get some rest. I’ll ride this beast to Proslogion.”
The captain rested them at the Salamander’s quarters and ordered Tyrant.
“As soon as you know you’re all asleep, spray and capture the sleeping gas and interpret your dreams. And capture them all and freeze them in the Big Bear. Know the special dialects, cultural styles, and family secrets that only these races have. We’ll go undercover with these women. And when the problem is solved, they’ll be on the air.”
[Copy that, Captain.]
Even though I felt despicable, I couldn’t help it. He should have avoided taking risks that were uncontrollable and causing problems. I was going to stay alive when the problem was resolved.
Of course, the assumption that the Catarian 009 series has changed will have to be based on that. Of course, if the goddess changes her mind, the world they will return to will also change.
“Let the sack of axes rot in freshness for a moment in peace.”
There were several kinds of dream hacking. Some of it was a brutal dream that led to the destruction of the brain. Arden is currently living in a lifeless state.
On the other hand, there were hacks that made dreams slowly and almost identical to reality. For example, they face reality in their dreams.
Reality is known to Tyrant and provided to them. They then provide the most reasonable way of doing so. If you make a dream of going to a restaurant and then put a dinner on the table, you can proactively determine whether the water in front of you is washing your hands or drinking water through their reaction.
The captain imagines the Elves are gnawing their teeth, plugging electrodes into the starfish’s head and going to Khan, who is gathering information. Crassus was sitting down, eating an unfinished lava salamander.
No matter how tough my meat was, it was badly grinded out in front of his ultraviolet teeth.
“You’ve got a cute pet, Captain?”
Krasus, who was sharing the video, smiled.
“Too big, too fierce, too uncomfortable for a pet.”
“I’m surprised you’re uncomfortable. I was just wondering if you were bleeding.”
“Of course there’s blood, but I’m not going to show it to you. If you’ve tasted me, give it up quickly.”
Crassus smiles and continues to eat the salamander. Knights are watching the captain from all around.
The place where the filth and corpses were piled was desolate because the knights cleaned it thoroughly and moved all the goddess’s wounds. Only the gray matter of the starfish brain that appeared white was stuck in the electrode, and it was sitting there. Khan stands in front of him, touching the electrode and standing up.
“We head this way to Proslogion. If you win a contest in that city and participate in the coronation, you’ll be able to face the Catarians 009. I’ll let those Black Elves live. But we have to disguise ourselves as those Elves. Elves are better than multi-armed lizards. ”
“Does everything have to be a woman?”
Samir trembles. The captain nods.
Proslogion. The captain knew the meaning of the word. This means, in Latin, Given the Latin name of the city, it was clear that the first part of the city was closely related to the Catarian series.
You look at the map with the columns floating in holograms and manipulate the electrodes. This enormous starfish swims down into the mysterious glowing lava. As Tyrant looks at the swimming starfish, he speaks only to the captain in secret.
[The power currently stored is the power that can be driven for about 30 hours. The salamanders were going to go to the PROSLOGION and buy slaves. The screams of the slaves power it.]
“How many hours till Proslogion?”
[On the map, it looks like we’ll reach PROSLOGION in the next 72 hours. What do we do, Captain?]
“If we reach PROSLOGION with other forms of power, we are concerned that our enemies will notice us. Identify the shortest course that can go to the current power source and minimize power so we can move.”
And the captain thought of something and said,
“Report back to the point where all the power is running out.”
For a day, they went down below Magma. The knights practiced swords or airborne, and Tyrant gave dreams to the Black Elves.
In their dreams, they went through many things in Proslogion without kidnapping or assault, and showed many reactions. Tyrant analyzed their dreams and rigorously analyzed their cultural characteristics.
On the second day, the starfish cried low and short. Looks like you’ve run out of power.
[Captain, we’re running low on power. What do you want to do?]
Kan also reported.
“Captain, this starfish is no longer moving. It looks like it needs food.”
Samir rises from his seat, followed by the captain reading a book. The captain stumbles upon the wall of the torture chamber.
“Washts, temporarily disable Woowan defense mode. Expose skin.”
You gently slide up the gloves of your right arm and cover them with your shoulders. The reinforced captain’s right arm is revealed. And he stares at Samir with the leather firmly fastened in place. But Samir was restless until then, not knowing what was going on.
“If magic demands sacrifice, it is most reasonable to shed my blood. Samir, tear my arm with that dagger.”
“Your Majesty. What should I do?”
“Samir, if I don’t sacrifice now, how can I expect you to trust me on the battlefield to come?” Have my men loyal to me. This is what you, the Guard Commander, have to do. ”
Samir closes his eyes tightly. The knights surrounding me were embarrassed. A king who forces the commander to torture himself! The horror spread among the knights.
“Come on!”
Samir finally bites his teeth.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
With a sharpened dagger, Samir severs the captain’s right arm, avoiding the muscles. My flesh splits open, and my blood spills.
“Ahhhh!”
The captain endured the pain between his lips. Then the light flashed inside the facility and the power gradually recharged. Meanwhile, Tyrant says,
[Stop Samir’s attack. Captain, we’ve identified the energy generation process.]
Samir stops, and the captain takes another breath. The right arm, which flows with blood, slowly self-heals. The nanorobot in the body fixes the arm at a rapid rate. In the meantime, Tyrant, who quickly completed his analysis, reports.
[So this is how Progenitor Corporation bypasses the dimensional core restriction algorithm and drains its energy. This energy power is based on emergency rescue protocols. without asking for access, without asking for use.]
“W-what does that mean?”
Samir shakes his head. Tyrant told me.
[Catarian 009 cannot draw power from a dimensional core engine any other way than to turn an external core. Terraforming machines belong to Progenitors, but the dimensional cores belong to the Earth’s Union. Outside of a crisis, only authorized personnel can request power. Otherwise, it is only available for rescue requests.]
“I see. Emergency rescue protocol. Samir, this is some kind of paramedic. Dimensional cores detect screams and power them. It’s like giving food and energy to drifters. Indeed, for this reason, we needed a screaming mouth to sustain our civilization. What do you mean, you made a mouth for rescue, and you took out the power?”
The captain twists his left jaw.
“Tyrant. As you know, the moment we launch the full rescue protocol, there’s a good chance the enemy will know where we are.” Is it possible to execute a similar level of circumvention protocol as screaming? ”
[Possible, Captain. Samir, let him go.]
Samir released the captain’s restrained arm. The reinforcement suit goes up to his shoulders, but he swoops back down and covers his whole arm. Blood has all been absorbed into the skin and the wounded arm has healed cleanly.
And after a while, some painful moaning came from Tyrant. It was the sound that was made into the air. Then, gradually, the power gathered, and suddenly, it started to fill up with the energy of the starfish.
“If I had access to the Dimensional Core before I captured the Catarian 009, I could reprogram it with my own access.”
Broader strategies for crafting The group resumes their move again, sailing for about a day and finally arriving in a civilization-controlled area. Beyond the screen, the city within Magma was revealed.
“Look, Captain. ”
Samir is exhausted.
The Black Memorial Stone floats in Magma like a giant black stone in Mecca. Convection was flowing around the city. There should be an outer core below the city where Magma is lying on the way down and up, but it doesn’t seem to go down because it’s blocked by some kind of solid membrane.
In Magma, which glows in a subtle white color, the black makes a very peculiar contrast. Each diameter seemed to be 500 kilometers long. It was so far away, but its existence was so powerful.
“Is there a face on each side? This is a very large face that can only be seen from this distance. ”
The face of the tormented goddess was engraved on every great face. My eyes are pulled out of my head, and my mouth is screaming because of the pain. The abraded skin was extremely rough because of the texture of the wall, and the space in which the eyes were dug was just black holes.
The starfish approaches. The closer you get, the bigger the wall gets. Around the big city were things that looked like boats and mounts like starfish.
And the starfish gently entered a place that looked like a port. A magical communication came in asking who is around. The captain, who had been transformed into a servant, answered the ‘males’ entry question very cruelly.
The gatekeepers opened the way without a shrug of breath. Soon after coming out through the entrance, it was a place like a lake filled with Magma. And then came the great empire of Jersey.
Starfish rise above the ground, opening their mouths, and the group from the wharf pass by the dark and majestic city to the mansion of Barsdeman.
