History of the Greatest Territory Design - Episode 306
306fury. Change the construction site (1)
Shaaaaa……!
The starlight that dazzles before your eyes.
A three-dimensional magic circle filled the space..
For a moment gravity disappeared.
like a feather.
Or as if the world is turning into a bubble.
The weight of all matter disappears.
Darkness and starlight dance dizzyingly.
As if everything in the world was finally put in its place.
Both feet landed safely on the floor..
“……Whoa.”
Lloyd took a deep breath without realizing it..
It was dizzying. I felt dizzy. My stomach hurts. I felt nauseous. I thought to myself.
‘Whether it’s dimensional movement or teleportation, how can we improve the ride quality?.’
Why do both magics cause passengers(?) to suffer from motion sickness every time they are used?.
Lloyd took a deep breath and comforted himself, feeling like he was missing his ears..
After that, my vision returned to normal..
Jack jack, jack jack…….
The night streets of Seoul and Gwanghwamun that were visible just a moment ago had disappeared..
Instead, I saw the interior of an old-fashioned bedroom, a half-open window, curtains fluttering in the breeze, and sunlight seeping through..
There was also a man still lying asleep on the bed below him..
A man who frowns at the sunlight shining on his face but just sleeps.
You could raise your hand to block the sun or lie down, but.
Jamtaeng says even that is annoying and just sleeps.
It was Dragon King Berkis..
It was only when I saw that that I realized.
‘You came back safely..’
I felt like I was back in the guest quarters of the Frontera mansion..
There was something more that reminded me of the reality of this place..
“Lloyd, did you cry??”
“…….”
A voice that pierces my eardrums.
A unique, cool tone of voice that rarely gets excited in any situation..
Javiel was staring intently in this direction..
It was as if he was observing the corner of my eye..
Lloyd was hot.
“How can you cry? what do i do.”
“I don't know why, but your eyes are moist..”
“Tears in your eyes? no way.”
“It's true. For some reason, your eyelids are also turning red..”
“…….”
“Even the tip of my nose is red..”
“…….”
“Wow, a little runny nose was about to come out..”
“It's a cold.”
“yes?”
“We've been to unfamiliar places, we?”
“Yes, I did..”
“I went to a place like that and the air was so thick and unfamiliar. I guess I caught a cold.”
“No matter how I look at it, I don’t think that’s the case..”
“why?”
“I can see that you are doing well now..”
“I wonder if my cold is getting better.”
“…….”
“You're back in a familiar place, right? The air is also clear. The wind is pleasant too.”
“So you're getting better from a cold, is that what you're saying?.”
“uh.”
Lloyd shamelessly laid down the iron plate and nodded..
“You saw it earlier. That place called Seoul. I didn't know there were places like that. The air was thick, and something resembling an iron carriage was clattering around and moving around. People's clothes are also strange. Hold a flat object the size of your palm towards a person and make a clicking sound. is not it?”
“Hmm, aside from that, you seem to have a very comfortable face..”
“what? I?”
“yes.”
This time Javiel nodded..
“If I had to say it, he looked like someone who had returned to his hometown after a long time..”
“omg. nonsense.”
“Is that so.”
“of course.”
“Well, I guess so..”
“yes.”
Lloyd felt angry inside..
The nuance of the questions Javiel is asking now is a bit suspicious..
‘It's like he's trying to scare me..’
Could it be that they are aware that this is a fake?.
Or, when I went to Seoul, did I unconsciously give off some signs that I was from there?.
Of course, I couldn't know what was inside of Haviel..
Lloyd played it off and changed the subject..
“By the way, let's put this down. Isn't it heavy??”
“ah.”
It's not that it's not, but both I and Javiel were still carrying the love lock railing, no, the key material 'Kiaora', on their shoulders..
I grumbled and put it down..
Hundreds of locks on Qiaora made a loud noise..
“Oh my, why are they hanging such cumbersome locks?.”
“Isn't it something that lovers put up as a promise for the future, showing their affection for each other? It seemed like that when I watched it earlier..”
“That's why it's a problem. Promises of a future filled with affection are nonsense. Do you think your affection will last forever if you hang something like this? Absolutely not. So like this. like this!”
Snap! Pout!
I turned my foolish mind to the maximum and grabbed the lock..
I broke it with force..
A feeling of joy (?) similar to popping bubble wrap filled me..
But that was then..
Ding dong.
With an unexpected notification sound.
A message appeared before my eyes..
[You are removing the impurities installed in Qiaora, the core material of the Jewel of Truth..]
[Kiaora is happy about that..]
[When all impurities are removed, the core material Qiaora will regain its original appearance and function..]
‘uh?’
It was unexpected.
Lloyd understood the meaning immediately..
“hey.”
I looked up at Javiel..
“Let's open this.”
“yes?”
“Let's tear it apart. Come to think of it, these locks are not the core material of jewels.?”
“So does that mean we should rip it out?.”
“huh. Even so, this is an item that is to be used as a material for building a jewel, so wouldn't it be troublesome if it had strange locks hanging all over it?.”
“Come to think of it, I see..”
“yes?”
“yes. Although Lloyd's petty and narrow-minded thinking, which even lovers from other dimensions are jealous of, feels a bit sad and pathetic..”
“……Wow. Even in this situation, I'm willing to hit people's bones?”
“I did not assault Lloyd..”
“Hurt inflicted with words is also clear violence.?”
“If you feel unfair, end your single life..”
“It's not that I can't do it, it's that I don't do it.?”
“Yes yes, I guess so..”
“…….”
“Are you not going to open this??”
“…….”
When tears well up, raise your head.
I smiled brightly again so I couldn't let it flow..
‘IU, it's a good day. It's a good day. shit.’
I squatted down in front of Kiaora, trying hard to swallow the tears that were about to flow..
Oh Sun-do-soon alongside Javiel.
Like popping bubble wrap.
I ripped the lock off Kiaora..
Luckily(?) they both had enough strength, so it didn't take long..
The moment the last lock is neatly ripped off.
Changes are beginning to occur in Kiaora..
Tsutsutsutsutsu!
Kiaora was just an ordinary iron railing..
But the shape quickly became mushy..
like liquid metal.
I felt like I was melting.
It turned into a silvery, smooth cube slightly larger than a basketball..
It was Kiaora’s true self..
Ding dong!
The long-awaited message came to mind with a clear and beautiful sound that resonated throughout the world..
[You have acquired Qiaora, the key material that makes up the Jewel of Truth..]
[You have succeeded in excavating all five key materials of Aotearoa, the jewel of truth that was destroyed with the end of the Mythical Age..]
[This is a historically rare excavation achievement..]
[In the future, when the Jewel of Truth is restored, your name will forever remain in history as the excavator of key materials for the Jewel..]
[As bonuses for these rare achievements, you will receive a large amount of special RP..]
[2,800 Earned RP.]
[RP you currently own : 11,755]
‘This is it!’
I clenched my fists.
But the message announcing compensation did not end there..
[You have excavated and collected all the key materials of Aotearoa, the jewel of truth, scattered throughout the world..]
[This is not a simple excavation achievement, but an honorable achievement that has greatly contributed to the recovery of artifacts from the mythical era..]
[Special preference is given for honorable achievements.]
[You have the power to decide where to build the Jewel of Truth Aotearoa.]
[You can build Aotearoa, the Jewel of Truth, wherever you want..]
‘……what?’
It was an incredible message..
I read and re-read and checked..
I was finally able to realize.
‘oh my god.’
You can build the Jewel of Truth wherever you want..
So, it means that there is no need to build the Jewel of Truth in a distant mermaid kingdom.…….
‘We can build this on our territory.?’
The conclusion came naturally.
In fact, it was a natural conclusion.
‘Of course it really is! Good things always stay in our home! We should build it in our neighborhood!’
Lloyd shouted inwardly..
I have to have the good things first.
Good facilities must come to our neighborhood first..
Anyway, I have to enjoy all the good things first..
Even if it is a blatant Pimpi (Please in my front yard) phenomenon,.
Lloyd thought he deserved it..
‘How many good facilities have been built in other neighborhoods so far?!’
Of course it was because of money.
Of course, I got a lot of compensation..
Nevertheless, when I think of the construction work I've done so far, my lower abdomen naturally starts to hurt..
‘Starting with the suspension bridge built to score points with the King's sister, huh? We built a railroad in hell, a sauna in the mermaid kingdom, a colosseum for centaurs, and an ice bath in the orc neighborhood. In the desert, there is a qanat. If all of that had been built on Frontera territory, wow, the land price would have risen a lot.!’
Land price dream.
Hope for a high-tech territory leading the times.
It reminded me of the bitter(?) days when I had to give it up to other regions..
Lloyd made his decision without any hesitation..
‘I found all the key materials through my own hard work. Besides, you're going to have to go through a lot of trouble building that jewel again in the future, right? When I think about it, I really did it all by myself, I did it all. You deserve it. So, the Jewel of Truth must be built in our territory. To do that, hmm. I'll have to take a look at the Mermaid Queen's face.’
Originally, it was planned to build the jewel in the mermaid kingdom..
Thanks to those conditions, the Mermaid Queen cooperated with us..
But now you can change the construction site..
Because the plan has changed.
I had to convince the mermaid queen..
‘Anyway, I threw Tauranga, the first material I found, into the mermaid kingdom. If you want to pick it up, you have to stop by..’
I briefly informed Javiel of the plan..
Javiel was pleased to hear that a jewel would be built in the territory..
As expected, he was the kind of guy who put the safety of Yeongji first..
However, on the other hand, he also showed signs of concern..
“Is that okay? I'm sure the Mermaid Queen would object..”
“uh. I'm confident I can persuade you.”
“What do you mean by persuasion?.”
“There is a condition that the Mermaid Queen will accept as soon as she hears it..”
“If it's a condition?”
“You'll know once you get there. Come on, let's move.”
Dragon King Berkis is still rolling around and sleeping..
Kiaora was placed next to the bed..
I left the guest accommodation..
I flew up on Komingi..
I left the territory and headed north..
Yongyong joined in the middle. I switched to the guy's back..
After flying for another half a day, we arrived over the Arctic Ocean..
But it wasn't as cold as before.
It was because of the Hellgate open over the Arctic Ocean..
A hot, dry hellish wind was blowing out through Hell Gate..
‘It's warmer than before.’
It was clearly visible that the icebergs floating here and there had decreased considerably..
But Lloyd didn't care.
“Come on, let's go!”
Jump up and dive into the Arctic Ocean.
At the same time, the option of the praise held was activated..
So I dived into the deep sea.
Arrived at the mermaid kingdom.
Fortunately, the muscular mermaids quickly recognized us..
Thanks to this, I was able to immediately see the more muscular Mermaid Queen..
“Long time no see, queen. This is Lloyd Frontera..”
“Yeah, it's been a while. It seems like my forearm muscles are slightly thicker than before..”
“Haha, the queen's trapezius muscles have also become stronger than before..”
“is it? These may be empty words, but I am grateful..”
“It was nothing. Then, may I reveal the purpose of your visit??”
“of course.”
The Mermaid Queen was and is still exciting..
If that exuberance goes too far, I might end up sticking this bone in my forearm and bursting it..
Suppressing his anxiousness for a moment, Lloyd immediately revealed his business..
“Dear Queen, I have finally found all the key materials to build the Jewel of Truth..”
“is it?”
The queen jumped up.
rose from the throne of coral.
“Yes, so I would like to change the construction site..”
“Surely, they don't mean to build a jewel on land on the mainland??”
“It's sad but it's true.”
Lloyd readily admitted..
I guess it's a shame for the other person..
So in times like this, be as honest as possible..
Rather than going round and round, revealing the truth is the way to avoid ruining the relationship..
“In fact, thanks to finding all the key materials, we have the authority to decide where to build the jewel. That's why. If I was going to build a jewel, I wanted to build it in a place I could manage as much as possible..”
“It's not that I have a desire to monopolize the treasure.?”
“It would be a lie if I said I had no greed at all..”
“so?”
The Mermaid Queen's eyes narrowed..
Lloyd said without being intimidated..
“Instead of changing the construction site of the jewel, how about I be of great help to the queen?.”
“If it helps?”
“Isn’t the weather in the Arctic Ocean these days not as good as it used to be??”
“Hmm.”
arctic ocean weather.
The moment she heard those words, a faint look of concern appeared on the Mermaid Queen's face..
Lloyd was inwardly delighted..
As expected, my prediction was correct..
I said quickly and confidently..
“I guess this won't be normal. This is the dry, hot air blowing out from the Hell Gate that was opened over the Arctic Ocean for no reason..”
“but… … okay. It's definitely a pain in the ass. I was worried before, but now the situation is getting out of control. Because there is nothing we can do to stop it. Because I don’t even know what caused that Hell Gate to open..”
“Have you not figured out the cause yet??”
“It didn't work. I don't even know how to know. So it's a big deal. The iceberg is melting day by day. The water temperature and salinity of the Arctic Ocean are changing. Because many aquatic creatures are in danger of losing their homes. But I still can't think of a way to respond..”
The Mermaid Queen's expression darkened..
it was true.
Hell Gate suddenly opened sometime ago.
The hot air from hell flowing out from there..
Because of this, the Arctic Ocean was getting warmer by the minute even today..
Many Arctic sea creatures were in danger due to the melting of icebergs and rapid changes in water temperature and salinity..
Lloyd, who was listening to the queen's lament, also clicked his tongue..
“As expected, you said that..”
It's really very sad.
As if it hurts my heart just to hear it.
As if opening the Hell Gate had nothing to do with him..
Lloyd laid a titanium triple embossed iron plate all over the face..
And with the message of giving a bottle and medicine,.
As soon as the queen heard it, she proposed a condition to cheer for all ages..
“Then queen? If I could make the Arctic air cold again... … . At that time, would you please cooperate in changing the construction site of Book??”
