I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 427

"Great. Didn't they put their hands on it?"

"Hey, Tanatos. What is this place? If you think you've come a long way, there's a lot of Spirit Stones."

"Ah, this is the great stone inhabited by the Spirit of the Earth, which our warriors of Atmos worship."

Is that so? I knew it was the black stone that the Brillian Magic Nation was mining. Look, it's the one that was used for wands and magic weapons. "

"Oh, that. That would certainly be one of them. But the spirits of the earth here are overwhelmingly small compared to the great stones."

"I see. It's huge indeed. Isn't that a lot more than [Atmos Wall]?

As a post-mortem in Atmos, I locked up those who surrendered. I was walking around the village with Tanatos.

I was going to check to see if anyone else was hiding, or if there was anything strange.

But after a while, Tanatos said.

He wants to go and check out some important places in the backyard.

I walked around the valley and came to Tanatos' place, and I saw the symbols in Atmos' village.

There was a huge black Spirit Stone there.

The rock is as big as 300 meters in height as it looks.

It is also quite thick, with giant rocks that appear to be rectangular and upright.

It is a black monolithic rock as tall as the Tokyo Tower.

There is certainly a sense of presence that overwhelms what you see.

It was somehow understandable that the warriors of Atmos worshipped and worshipped them, saying, "The Spirit of the earth dwells in great stones."

Perhaps the Brillian Magic Nation also wanted to take home this huge Spirit Stone when it captured the land of Atmos.

But it would have been impossible to bring home such a huge rock.

There are traces of ladders, etc., for investigation, but they have been abandoned now.

The Spirit Stones used as wands and magic weapons were even smaller.

I think it would have been more efficient to retrieve a Spirit Stone of affordable size than a large one that you can't take home if you just used it realistically.

"... something like that. The air in this area resembles a labyrinth."

"Labyrinth?"

"Oh, yeah. Didn't Tanatos come in with you once? We just got on a Valkyrie, attacked Labyrinth City, and then we went underground into a cave."

"... there. I see. I see. It might be a bit similar, if they say so. It wasn't as much as the countryside, but it was densely magical."

"That's right. The terrain of this great valley and the underground cave is very different, but the magic concentration is similar to that of normal. Maybe this Atmos River is a kind of labyrinth."

Somehow, I thought so.

I've felt it since I entered Atmos' home town of Tanatos, but the amount of magic in the air is so high that I came near this big Spirit Stone.

It was similar to continuing to dive in the labyrinth and becoming more magical as we went deeper.

Speaking of which, I remember what I heard from Gran before.

There are many people in the east beyond the Great Snow Mountains, there are many countries, and monsters are rarely seen.

I had a lot of doubts when I heard the story.

There are no monsters, but I wonder if the labyrinth is in the east.

In conclusion, if there is a labyrinth, it is either there or there is not.

Because there used to be a place called the Labyrinth, where monsters lived.

But the labyrinth in the east was almost entirely attacked.

Labyrinth strategy.

It meant the destruction of the monsters in the Labyrinth.

This world is not a world of games.

Of course, people and monsters are alive.

In other words, there were monsters living in the labyrinth in Labyrinth City, but it was not a monster that would eventually be resurrected indefinitely even if it was defeated, but a monster that lived and bred in the labyrinth.

Therefore, it is not impossible to extinct monsters in the Labyrinth if people continue to enter the Labyrinth and destroy monsters.

And in the east, it happened in many labyrinths.

As a result, the labyrinth remained a place of intense magic concentration.

This drastically reduced the chances of obtaining monster materials for people living in the east, but in some cases it brought with it.

It had the effect of making it easier to get Magic Stones.

Magic Stones are easier to get in places with strong magic concentrations.

Therefore, with a peculiarity called a labyrinth with a particularly high magic concentration, if the monsters that were attracted to that magic were eliminated and extinct, it was possible to obtain magic stones in a stable manner without danger.

In fact, in the east, large countries usually own labyrinths that have been attacked.

And perhaps one of them was in the village of Atmos.

Perhaps the "Spirit of the earth dwells and the great stone" worshipped by the warriors of Atmos is the core of the labyrinth.

And the Atmos warriors who live near the labyrinth nucleus and train their bodies from an early age will gain the magic of Titanization by experiencing certain rituals.

According to the story I heard from Tanatos, after drinking the spiritual hot water that makes me feel good, I will duel with warrior apprentices of the same age.

Do you think that the duel was intense or that some people lost their lives in rituals?

However, when the Spirit of the earth dwells in such a fierce and brave battle and sacrifices it in front of the Great Stone, the Spirit Stone will give it strength as a warrior of Atmos.

... let's not ask what kind of drink Spirit Hot Water is.

I'm sure that in a long history, we have been able to create a mechanism to inherit Titanization technology.

Well, it's a shame that this huge spiritual stone still remains anyway.

It will not be possible to rebuild the village of Atmos even if a soil attribute magic stone named a small spiritual stone is mined.

I saw Tanatos' happy face, and I thought so.
